  Speaker 1: the Russians went to the polls for their first ever

  Speaker 1: presidential election, which resulted in victory for Boris Yeltsen.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: And this.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Is there's a date that it started the ball rolling
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: on a story that just wouldn't end for all of
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: us who lived through it. And just as observers talk
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: about capturing our attention as a nation like no news
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: story had in quite a while or since, this is
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the day in nineteen ninety four that Nicole Brown Simpson
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: and Ronald Goldman were found dead outside her home in
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: La It began the whole tale of the Slow White
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Bronco and the trial that no one could take their
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: eyes off of. As we watched oj Simpson on trial
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: for his life, Johnny Cochrane playing the race card, and
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: a jury ultimately acquitting the Jews of a murder that
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: many of us were sure he committed I'm still pretty
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: sure you. But no, if it doesn't fit, you must acquit.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Twenty eighteen, President Trump, in his first term, met Kim
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Jong un in Singapore, the first time a sitting US
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: president had met with a North Korean leader. They met
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: again a couple times in twenty nineteen. It was one
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: year ago today. Tragedy strikes. An Air India plane bound
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: for London crashed in amamad Bad a medda bad. Excuse me,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: added another syllable shortly after takeoff, killing two hundred and
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: forty one on the plane, nineteen on the ground. One
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: passenger who was thrown from the plane actually survived the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: ordeal completely And flashback ten years on June twelfth, the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida, leaving forty nine dead
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: fifty three wounded in what was then the deadliest mass
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: shooting in US history. Omar Matin, the guy responsible, pledged
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: allegiance to the Islamic State group during a three hour
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: standoff before being killed in a shootout with cops. I
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: can't see how these leftists identify with Islamists and also
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: identify with LGBTQ whatever groups, because the two are not
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: congruent at all. Let's see actress Sonya Manzano is seventy six.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Timothy Busfield seen him on TV and as a director
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: for years sixty nine. He's in some trouble lately. To

• 8:27
  Speaker 1: who that is, but it's her birthday forty seven. Chris
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Young and Ashley Cook both on the birthday list. If
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: it is your birthday on this June twelfth, I trust
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: and I pray that it is the best birthday ever
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: that you get to spend it with the people you love,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: doing the things you absolutely love to do. And that's
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: truly my wish for you. Well, driving up seventy one
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: this morning, that was a treat standing water hydroplaning without
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: an airboat. I don't recommend it, but if you have
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: to get up and go this morning, be very very
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: careful and we'll try and get you through the rain.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Should taper off of the forecast in just a moment.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: The rain should taper off before the heart of rush hour.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: This morning again, Gary Jeffin for Brian Thomas, will take
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: a quick break and come back. It's five fourteen and
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: you're tuned into fifty five KRC the talk station five seventeen.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Gary Jeffin for Brian Thomas. I know we've heard this before,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: but there may be a deal for peace with Iran.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: The President seems pretty confident and a lot of people
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: are saying it just feels different this time. We'll see
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: after after all this time, after eight weeks of ceasefire
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: supposing and since the operations began way back when, there
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: have been numerous glimpses of hope, and the Iranians snuff
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: it out at the last minute because the deal's not
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: good enough for President Trump and they won't agree to
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: rid themselves of nuclear weapons and get rid of the
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: enriched uranium and let us see it destroyed and inspections
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: and opening the straight of horror moves. The United States
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: has proven in the last couple of weeks, Iran is
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: not blocking the Strait of horror moves. They're doing all
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: kinds of saber rattling, and they're like gnats at your
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: picnic table, basically, because they just don't have capabilities to
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: truly block the Strait of horror moves. The United States
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: has been ushering out tankers, not Iranian tankers and oil,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: but they've been ushering them out, we found out yesterday
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: through President Trump at the White House for the last
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks in the dead and night, because Iran
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't have the radar and the ability to detect or
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: track them. As we've been moving millions of gallons of
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: oil out of the Strait and into the market worldwide.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Now not to the levels of before the war, mind you,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: but the oil has been moving quietly undercover and with
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: the aid of our fantastic military. So that's good. But
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: will the Iranians really come to the table. Has this
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: latest flurry of attacks and challenges to their infrastructure been
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: enough to push these radical men admin ideological death cultists
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: to the brink of saying uncle could happen this weekend?
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: According to the President, we'll see like to believe that
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: we can get out of this and get what we
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: want out of this and make the Middle East and
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: the world a lot safer place. Without the loss of
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: the major loss of human life. We have lost thirteen
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: servicemen so far since this operation began, and that's thirteen
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: too many. But considering the amount of kinetic damage we
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: have been able to do to the enemy, the numbers
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: could be much worse. Let's put it that way, and
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you've got to give all the credit to Pete Hagseeth,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: our Department of War, and the men and women of
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: our armed forces who absolutely have clocked the enemy at
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: every turn. It'd be nice to see a peace deal.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Let's the Bible say about the end times and men
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: will cry piece piece, but there will be no peace.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I think about that a lot closer to home. What's
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: with the break ins of cars on Mount Adams. I
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: just heard about this this this morning, And like Mount Adams,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard of anything about Mount Adams since our
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: studios were on Mount Adams, and that was pre two
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: thousand and four. But apparently vandalism, crime spree, theft, vandalism
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: on Mount atoms of automobiles. I guess one less reason
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: to go. No. Mount Adams used to be a buzzing
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: hub of nightlife and activity, and just because there's no
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: parking it's kind of hard to get there. They are
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: building that connector to downtown will to make it a
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: little bit more accessible. It was almost a very quaint,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: cute kind of place, kind of almost a hippie hangout.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: You know, that whole area, most of Mount Adams used
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: to be a vineyard and long before we were here,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: but you know, in the eighteenth century, in the nineteenth century,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: it was a massive vineyard up there. And I have
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: a certain connection to knowing that because my wife is
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: related to the Longworths which owned Mount Adams. Basically, I
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: ask her all the time where the money is. She says, Aunt,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: Kate's got it. Good luck for us. Huh, But yeah,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: break ins on Mount Adams in the cars. And this
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: group has done a study elsewhere. This group has done
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: a study of Cincinnati police pulling over black people, young
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: black people, and I haven't even seen it yet. I
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: know that they did a fifteen year study and they'd
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: never talked to the police, So I don't know how
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: valid their study is. But I think Iris Rowley's involved,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: And when Iris Rolly's involved, that kind of tells you
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: everything you need to know. Who's in the mayor's ear
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: well coming up on five point twenty five on this
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Friday morning, and I'll give you a rundown of what
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: we got planned for later on. Got some good guests
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: coming your way. Gary Jeff Walker in for Brian Thomas,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Happy Friday, fifty five KRC the talk station and our
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: first phone call of the morning. What a grand thing.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Before we get to that, Tom, your patience please. At
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: six point thirty this morning, our regular Friday Tech talk
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: with Dave Hatter, Dangerous Dave Doomsday, Dave the cyber Guru.
• 16:55

  Speaker 1: details on him and Johanna Newman will be with us
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: at eight thirty again updates on exactly who they are
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: and definitely want to hear what they have to say.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I bet you right now. Tom at five three seven
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: fifty five hundred on the left and Radical Islam, Tom,
• 17:19

• 17:25
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Uh? It's been a rough week because I I uh,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: and this is just gonna come off like whining now.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: But yesterday filling in for Brian yesterday and got home
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: and immediately turned around and went to work at a
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: bar because that's the other job than I have. I'm
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: a bartender. And then at five point thirty did the
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: quick change into a suit and mceed the grand opening
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: of Italian Fest in Newport last night, and then the
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: quick turnaround to get up this morning. So I'm a
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: little I'm dragging a little time.
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: To be honest with you, well, I'm we I guess
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: we'll all take a moment and feel sorry for you.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: No, it's not gonna help, it's not gonna help at all.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: But but anyway, Yeah, I'm just just just a little
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: droopy this morning. I'll get it going. Uh right off, Well,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: so what's up.
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: Well, we appreciate the hard work and effort you You
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: brought up the studios in Mount Adams. Yeah, reminding me
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: one of my one of my favorite times I was
• 18:34
  Speaker 6: up there working. I worked on the studios. I actually
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: was putting a ceiling in. This is in the nineties
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: and at the time would have been the new studio
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: in the same building. And I remember as I'm working
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: in there, Gary Burbank and uh Nurse Birds walk in
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: checking the place out, and they actually invited me. I
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: sat in on Sports or Consequences.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: Uh yeah, So I would say that would be the
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: official start of my radio career.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Some like that.
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: But yeah, that was that was really cool. That that's
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: uh yeah, that's a kind of a highlight. This this
• 19:11
  Speaker 6: Islam thing you brought up. You don't maybe don't understand
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: how these people aligned that don't seem like to have
• 19:18
  Speaker 6: much in common and what what they have with what
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: the left has and what the Radical Islam has is
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: they have a common enemy. And that common enemy is
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: what we refer to as God, the Christian God, the
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: Jewish God, that is, that is their enemy. They don't want,
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: they don't want anything to do with that God. They
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: have their gods, they have the you know whatever, whether
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: it's Allah or whether it's no God at all, anything,
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: but what you know, we look to as God, as
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: Christians or or in the West, you know, uh, that
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: that's their enemy. So they have a common enemy that
• 19:56
  Speaker 6: you if you look at everything that they stand for
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: and everything they oppose usually has something related to God.
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: I mean, Islam is based in the Radical Islam is
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: based on religion and their religious beliefs and and what
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: they stand for has everything to do with the God
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: they worship and the God there against.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I think You're making an excellent point, Tom, in that
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I believe it is all Satanic, it's all Luciferian. Oh,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: because of my beliefs, I have to think that if
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: you're opposed to God, the One True God, and everything that,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: all the good that that God brings to the world.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're fighting a spiritual battle is being fought
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: right now that you and I can't even see it's
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: going It's going on in the heavens and it's going
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: on here. And Lucifer is in his death throes. He
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: knows it, and he's going to go out kicking and screaming,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: and those that follow him will will face the same
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: ultimate fate. The good part is I know who wins
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: in the end, well.
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: Right, we know we know what the end of the
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: book says. Correct, Yes, so that's good part. But he's
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: going to try to take as many people with him
• 21:19
  Speaker 6: as he can, oh, certainly, and that that's that's his
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: that's really what it's all the behind whatever he does
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: and try to fool and deceive people. And so when
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: you have all these you have all these people, especially
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: in this country, the left, who come out with this
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: crazy garbage and they just try to appeal to your
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: feelings to get you to go along with what they're saying.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Everything everything, Tom, everything from drag Queen story hour right
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: to to you know, uh at will abortions, all of it.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: All of it is satanic. All of it is uh
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: is secular humanism to the integrae, which does become satanic.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: You can't say that. I mean, Lucifer knows there's a God,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: he absolutely, but he opposes him at every because he
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: thinks he is he's equal. So this is the problem.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: They think that they're their God and their belief system
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: is equal to the true God and Christianity and and Judaism,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: and they're sorely mistaken. But we're watching it all play out,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: and uh, there's a lot of collateral damage.
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: You're right, right, right, Yeah, so uh and so the
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: moral of the story is, don't fall for all the
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: all the garbage and adult vote Democrat. Have a great weekend.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey you two. Now. I I was having this
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: conversation with the buddy of mine, you know, and the
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: other day, and the conversation basically was, sometimes you have
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: to tune out the noise because the noise is there
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: for nois sake, not for any real purpose. And this
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: is talk radio, and people listen to talk radio and
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: get really fired up, But is it really to your
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: advantage to get really fired up and to get bombarded
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: with all the craziness all the time, And this having
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: to know everything that's going on instantly in a world
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: driven by social media, an instant gratification. Every once in
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: a while, you just got to tune out and not
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: fall into or go down the rabbit hole yourself into
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: that nutzoid landscape that is the world around us that
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: we see and we hear about. Makes sense, I don't know,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: maybe five point thirty five fifty five KRCV talk station. Yeah,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: do be careful out there. I drove through some standing
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: water a couple of places on seventy one, and as
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: you're there seventy five with some issues at overturn tractor
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: trailer but slip sliding away. And I wasn't in an airboat,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: and I wasn't in the Everglades. I was on the interstate.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: So there's some pretty good little pockets out there. I
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: mentioned at the top of the show that today, among
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: other things, as far as history goes, is the anniversary
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: of the opening of the baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: New York, and they did it basically. Of course, the
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati Reds the first professional team eighteen sixty nine, but
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: baseball actually invented in eighteen thirty nine. So in nineteen
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: thirty nine they opened this place the little town of
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Cooperstown to honor the sports Centennial preserve its history. The
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: founding was originally tied to the myth that Abner Doubleday,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: who was a Civil War hero, invented baseball in Cooperstown.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: It's not true. I mean for years I heard Abner
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Doubleday baseball, he invented the game. Not so. The story
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: basically was a marketing tool by Albert Spaulding, who sold
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: sporting goods, claimed Abner invented baseball in eighteen thirty nine.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: This has been debunked many times down through the years
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: and even double days. I didn't have anything to do
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: with that. He died in eighteen ninety three, but it
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: was a marketing tool to establish the museum in Cooperstown.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Why Cooperstown. Nineteen thirty nine, Stephen Carlton Clark, who was
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: heir to the Singer's sewing machine fortune, establishes this. He
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: sought to bring tourists. Let's rev up the economy here
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: in Cooperstown. In the aftermath of the Great Depression and Prohibition,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: things were getting back on track in America, and this
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: was a way that Stephen Carlton Clark thought he could
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: help revitalize his little town. The Baseball Writers' Association of
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: America held its first election in nineteen thirty six, so
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: actually three years before there was a Hall of Fame building.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Christy Mathewson, Walter Johnson,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the first five inducted. I have never been. I have
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: heard marvelous things about Cooperstown. And Paul Doctory Doherty a
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: few years back wrote an extensive piece on Cooperstown and
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: making the trek there, and it became kind of an
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: annual thing, a familial thing for Paul, and I guess
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: his son and his dad had gone with him before.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: But anyway, and talked about it's not an easy thing
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: to get to Cooperstown. Apparently it's not off a major interstate,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: or it wasn't at the time he was writing this,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: And uh so you got to actually want it, you
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: really want to go there. You have to want to
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: go there, uh to make it through. But I you know,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: and I'm not the biggest baseball fan of the world,
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: but I got to tell you that's a place I'd
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: like to see. I've never been to the Pro Football
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame in Canton either or the Basketball Hall
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: of Fame. But uh, Cooper'stown, New York. What about that
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: for a summertime destination if you've never been, I've never been.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Maybe a brianl lend me his, uh one of his
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: luxury sedan's and give me some gas money for filling
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: in for him, and I'll go to Cooperstown with my wife.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Coming up on five point forty five on a Friday morning.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: I'm just I'm dithering. I'm talking and you can join
• 29:04

  Speaker 1: I think Gary Jeff in for Brian Thomas this morning.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: And uh, the talk about Cooperstown and baseball brought to
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: mind some other stories from you. Let's talk to Tracy
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: and roseland Roselawn, excuse me, Tracy, how are you doing.
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: I'm doing good, Gary, Jeff.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: I love when you're on the radio.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Man, Thanks, thanks.
• 29:43
  Speaker 7: I just went for some coffee, but I had to.
• 29:46
  Speaker 7: My dad was a sportscaster for WCIN.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, man.
• 29:52
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 29:52
  Speaker 7: In October of seventy two, Jackie Robinson threw out the
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: first baseball or you know the pitch, you know, for
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: the Red home game and they were playing the Oakland
• 30:09
  Speaker 7: A's and I said to my dad, I said, please
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: get me Via the Blues autograph. And this is before
• 30:16
  Speaker 7: they really anyway, my dad got via Blues autograph onto
• 30:21
  Speaker 7: his press pass, and then he ran into Jackie Robinson,
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: who was suffering from glacoma, and he asked, mister Robinson,
• 30:33
  Speaker 7: can I get a few comments from you? He said certainly,
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: and he did, and then he said it'd be an
• 30:39
  Speaker 7: honor if you would sign my press pass. Well, he
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: signed it, but he signed it right over via Blues,
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: liking it that like in an next you know.
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: So, uh.
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: The Cincinnati Herald, the black newspaper, found out about all this,
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: and somehow Cooperstown found out about it, and they wanted
• 31:07
  Speaker 7: to take and my dad said well do you do
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: you do you want to give the press pass to
• 31:16
  Speaker 7: the Cooperstown And you know, I'm only, like, you know,
• 31:23
  Speaker 7: thirteen fourteen years oldest, right, I said, yeah, I mean,
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: what a ding dong. If I had that, it would
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: be priceless. But anyway, my dad, it's in the Hall
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: of Fame. And you know, if you ever seen Raiders
• 31:40
  Speaker 7: of the Lost Arc, you know that big you know
• 31:44
  Speaker 7: warehouse where they got think stored, that's where it is.
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: I mean, it's not on display.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: So your dad's press pass, signed by Vita Blue and
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Jackie Robinson is in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
• 32:00
  Speaker 7: They have control of it. It's not exhibited, and and
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: and they have the tape. And I believe I have
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: a copy of the tape because my dad passed a
• 32:14
  Speaker 7: couple of years ago, and I got all these radio
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: shows and all these tapes.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: What was what was your dad's name? Tracy Bill Meredith?
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: And he worked for w c I N.
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: He worked for w c I N, and he was
• 32:31
  Speaker 7: the first broadcaster for x U basketball. How about d Yeah,
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: he got Joe Sunderman. He said, Joe because they went
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: we went to the same parish. And he said, Joe
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: why don't you come on? Ci N couldn't pay for
• 32:50
  Speaker 7: a color man, And so my dad would ask a
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: guest to come on. And he said to Joe, will
• 32:59
  Speaker 7: you come on and sit on sit in with me?
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: Because he played for XU, you know right, And he
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: said he's mister Meredith. I won't know what to do.
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: And my dad said, well, when I tap my finger
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: on the desk, I want you to talk. And then
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: when I tap my finger on the thing, you know
• 33:17
  Speaker 7: you can kind of cut it, begin to cut it off,
• 33:21
  Speaker 7: and needles to say, Joe Sunderman's still there thirty something years.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. That's a great story.
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but uh, I love it when you're on the radio.
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: You do such a good job.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Well you think, thank you. I flattery will get you everywhere.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that.
• 33:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I know.
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: Okay, buddy, Oh you have a great.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: Day, Tracy, thanks for spitting a few. That's it, buddy,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: that's that's That's a great story to be next to,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: to have access to Jackie Robinson of all people, and
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: to have something that the Baseball Hall of Fame wants
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: in their possession. Neat story. All right, Uh, we're going
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: to take a break and come back after six o'clock
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: and hopefully have this thing figured out by then. It's
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: a five point fifty five at fifty five KRC detak
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: station as we get into this hour, an examination of
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: a four syllable word that has reared its ugly head
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: once again in Congress. Summer Lee, a Democrat from Pennsylvania
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: House of Representative, introduced Yes Slavery reparations resolutions last month.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: And she said, as she offered this resolution to pay
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: descendants of fourteen trillion dollars of someone else's money, that
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: black voters will abandon voting. They'll tap out of the
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: system unless they don't get paid. This was an interview
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: this past Sunday. Black Americans would stop voting if they
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: aren't given reparations. And of course she took time to
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: slam the president. They all do. She slammed President Donald
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: Trump's Anti Weaponization Fund, you know the fund that pays
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: people who were wronged for political reasons by the Biden Whitehouse.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: The thing is about the Anti Weaponization Fund. This is
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: what makes it different than reparations. Summer she doesn't quite
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: get it. Those people are still alive, the ones who
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: were wronged. Those people had their lives completely upturned and
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: overturned because the Biden administration and his Department of Justice
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: went after people for political reasons, not because they committed crimes.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: In many cases, you know, find me the man, oh,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: I'll find you the crime kind of thing said. They're
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: playing psychological warfare with us, and that's what they do.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Because again, I love to hear these democrats talk. You
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: talk about Kamalo's famous word salads and the like aoc.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: She's brilliant at being an idiot. It's very very eloquent.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: She has no idea what she's saying, and neither do I,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: but she just sounds so articulate. Anyway, back to summer leave,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: because again they're trying to disenfranchise you, because if you
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: believe that you're never going to get reparations from this system,
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: then you tap out. And you don't just tap out
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: of the conversation. You tap out of the system. You
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: don't want to vote anymore, you don't participate anymore. A
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: lot of people don't vote. I was talking about that
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: yesterday morning, and it drives me nuts. But they're not
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: voting because they're not getting money from the government, are they.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: So again, the Anti Weaponization fund the Donald Trump wants
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: the President Trump wants different than reparations, because with reparations,
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: people but that never owns slaves are paying people that
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: never were slaves. I guess it would been something to
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: think about in eighteen sixty five, in the immediate aftermath
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: of the Civil War and the Emancipation Proclamation and slaves
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: officially being free men and women and children in this country.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: That would have been the time for reparations, not one
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: hundred and sixty years. Hence, because just because your skin
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: is brown or black, you're not a victim of slavery
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six, Sorry, you're just not. You don't
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: get to claim that victimhood status. And I my family
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: going back four generations, never owned slaves. Why am I
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: on the hook for your reparations just because my skin
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: pigmentation is different than yours? And black people in this
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: country were at one time subject to the abhorrent system
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: of slavery humans owning another human. But that has no
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: effect on you, now, how it's important to know the history.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: It's also important to do the math. And the simple
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: math says that I, or any other person who was
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: white or non black, non his whatever, that I owe
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: you any money because of the color of my skin.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: You know how racist that is the money doesn't they
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: want the government to pay reparations. Well, the money from
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: the government comes from you and me, So they're asking
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: us to pay them reparations if in fact they are
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: descendants of slaves. And I will tell you people of
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: color in other countries who were born in other countries,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: some of those countries being countries where slaves originally came from,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: where their descendants sold other people's descendants into slavery and
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: brought them to America. It's a totally different world. But
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: we also live in an age where people think they
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: can get paid off if they can demonstrate that they're
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: a victim of anything. That's why there are so many
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: lawyer ads on TV. Nothing against lawyers, well, not much,
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: but this and it comes up every once in a while,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: the reparation conversation in Congress, and she talked about cowardly
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: white liberals who won't support it. The former Rep. Cory
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Bush who was in Missouri who lost her twenty twenty
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: four primary to a Democrat a bit more moderate. If
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: there are still such things, introduce the reparations Bill. Last Congress,
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: and this was Bush's bill called for fourteen trillion to
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: be put towards reparations payments for descendants of slavery in
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: the United States. It did not go anywhere, nor should
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: it go anywhere now, because again, and what percentage of
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: your bloodline is directly tied to the line of descendants
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: of slaves. If it's five percent, you get five percent.
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: If it's one hundred percent, you get all the money.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: How does that work? Again, important to understand history, more
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: important to understand math and time and the time space continuum. Reparations. So,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: if black people don't get reparations, according to Summerly, they
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: will not vot. Vote. Well, that's not going to help them,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: will it. Yeah, vote in more idiots like her. Maybe
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: they'll get some more of our money because it is
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: our money, all of our money, white, black and in between.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Coming upon six fifteen and fifty five koc DE talk station,
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: time for break, Oh clea, listen a new ted talk.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Seven continents are drifting towards each other, and scientists warned
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: it's accelerating. That was the headline. You can worry about
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: that we're coming together as a planet. What could go wrong?
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I just saw that story and kind of made me laugh.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: You know, at one time it all was one continent.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: We're just getting back to basics. Maybe what you think
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: about that? Huh? President Trump thinks we could have a
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: deal this weekend on ending the war in Iran without
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: any more military activity, no more combat, which, by the way,
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a little bit of kinetic military
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: activity goes a long way, doesn't it. The strikes of
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: the last three nights, well two nights up until Thursday,
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: is apparently what convinced the gay Ayahtola. I love it
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: when they call him the gay Ayahtola. What convinced the
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: gay Iyatola and others in the Iranian government who supposedly
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: are in charge, who knows who's in charge to come
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: back to the table. And the real threat is carg
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: Island Aroand's main oil depot. That's where they do all
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: their business. And they certainly don't want the US's hands
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: all over it, or President Trump's hands all over it.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: They don't want us controlling their only marketable, good oil.
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: And so you know that I've always thought that that
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: was the bottom line. I guess military strategists say that
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: it's it would be very, very dangerous, risking great loss
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: of life on our side to actually take it over.
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: It's about the size of Ewojima, And anybody who knows
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: their history about World War II knows how bloody and
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: how difficult that was. But it had to be done
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: in order to defeat the Japanese. Ultimately that in a
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: couple of atomic bombs. But so we're at this place
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: now where the Iranians may feel like they've they've got
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: nothing else they can do except capitulate and agree to
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Trump's terms. Now, whether they'll stick to the terms that
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: they signed to or not, that's another subject entirely, because
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: they have a little bit of a problem with the truth.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: And we've known that for decades now. See, in Islam,
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: it's okay to lie to the infidel, it's okay to steal,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: it's okay to kill thee if they're non Muslims, if
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: they're non believers in your sectarian belief then everything's off
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: the table and they'll do whatever they they They'll say
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: I love you and stab you in the back at
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: the same time. That's what they do. And the radicals
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: and the Shia radicals that are at the top of
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: the tier of control in Iran are maybe doing this again.
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: It wouldn't surprise me, or it wouldn't surprise President Trump.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: But we're going to watch them and they don't get
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: any of their sanctions lifted, any of their funds, any
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: of their boats going out bumping that precious black gold
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: of theirs to the rest of the world so they
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: can start making money and have some recovery in their economy.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: They can't do it unless they adhere to what they sign.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: So I mean, the weekend will tell the tale. Maybe
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: maybe not. Maybe we'll be right back where we were
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: and they'll have to strike again militarily to convince them.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: Mississippi James, Hello, Mississippi James.
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: Hey, come in peace, love everybody. There's nothing you can
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: do about it. Hey, I'll just just listen to you. Earlier,
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: I think you was talking to Tom and you was
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: giving some insight on your spiritual belief. Yes, and what
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: you think Christ and is about. Now understand that. Now
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: are you speaking from the King James version your belief?
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: The King James version? You know what I don't. I
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: don't read well all of the these and Thou's James.
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: So what I usually use as a new international version.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: But the scripture, really, the interpretation of the scripture is
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: pretty much the same all the way around. It's just
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: for me it's easier to read something that's not uh
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: King James version. I understand there are there are purists
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: who insist on the King James, and I also know
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: that there are people who who who differ not with
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: the message of the verse, but with the presentation thereof Okay.
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: And in my research, you know, I just go back
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: with a lot further than that. So you have to
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: keep going back to the to the Dead Sea scrolls.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Well, you have to go back to the original Greek
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: interpretations of the scriptures.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Yes, I know, right to eat the Opium Bible, to
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: the Book of the Dead. Just keep going back, trying
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: to piece me of it together, you know, until you
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: get something that resonate with you. Whether that's the truth
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: or not. Ay, it's accepted belief. And I understand that,
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: you know, I just I was just listen at you
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: and whn't the word your belief come from? You know?
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: My belief is my belief is that Jesus Christ died
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: for my sins, died for your sins, and if you
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: repent of those sins and you believe, then you will
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: be accepted into heaven. That's my belief, Mississippy.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: James, into heaven. Okay, that's a good belief.
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: I don't knock that. Well it is. It's not tradition.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: It's what I believe and what I have to believe.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: I got you, I got you. We're all conditioned to
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: believe in doctrinated or whatever. So I wouldn't knock nobody.
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't. I wouldn't disagree with nobody what they believe.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: No, no, I'm not. I'm just telling you what I believe.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: You asked me.
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: Okay, But then that's a belief. We don't know whether
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: that's the truth or not, but it's a belief.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: Faith Faith is the belief or the knowing of something
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: that you can't necessarily see, James, And in this in
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: this earth, we see as the Bible says, we see
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: us through a glass dimly. We see us through a
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: glass dimly with our eyes in this earth. In other words,
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: there are plenty of things going on that will be
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: made clear to us in the next life.
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: So our art clear.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: To are our understanding of spiritual things is very limited.
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: I don't think so. I think we have a lot
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: of knowledge of it.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: I didn't say I didn't say that we don't have
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: any knowledge. I just say the Bible says, now you
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: see as through a glass dimly, but the Father will
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: open your eyes.
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: I think it has been open. If a person want
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: to stay in that box, they that' stay comfort level.
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: But it has been open. It has been seen. But
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: if you choose for your comfort level in that box,
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: I understand.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: That I'm not. I don't. I don't feel like I'm
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: in a box, James. I feel like I'm free, and
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: I have to be free of this conversation because we
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: have a guest standing by. It's a six twenty eight
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: and some change philosophical religious conversations. Isn't that nice? Fifty
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: five KRCV Talk Station AH six thirty two. Time to
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: do the Friday tech talk thing with the man I
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: like to call dooms Day. Dave actually called him the
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: mad Hatter at one point. Make us all of it fits,
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: but he's here to scare us to death with news
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: from the cyber world. And some looks like maybe some
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: people are coming to their senses a little bit in Europe,
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: which is hard to believe with the headlines we see
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: almost on a daily basis. Dave Hatter, good morning, how
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: are you.
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: I'm good, Charay Jeff.
• 53:23
  Speaker 9: And you know either one of those intros works doomsday,
• 53:26
  Speaker 9: Dave man Hatter, you know the shoe Fitz Delaware.
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: It's exactly fears of You sent me this yesterday and
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: said we should hit this this morning. So let's go.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: Let's hit the ground running with this topic, Dave. As.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: A story from justinnews dot com says fears of war,
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: cyber attacks, id theft has Europe pondering its cashless economy
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: and a return to currency. You and I have talked,
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: you and I have talked dad nauseum about the digital
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: dollar and you know, cashless economies and stuff, and I
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: eschew it every opportunity I get. But go ahead and
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: elaborate on this particular story, Dave.
• 54:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I think I see this as a positive sign here.
• 54:16
  Speaker 9: As you mentioned, you and I've discussed this many times,
• 54:19
  Speaker 9: and all you have to do does this look around
• 54:24
  Speaker 9: or just think for a second. How many times has
• 54:27
  Speaker 9: someone in your listening audience had a problem with a
• 54:30
  Speaker 9: computer and or software? How many times has the power
• 54:35
  Speaker 9: gone right? So if you're in a society that is
• 54:39
  Speaker 9: completely cashless, fully digital. I don't mean people don't really
• 54:43
  Speaker 9: use cash, because obviously cash has been dropping off for
• 54:45
  Speaker 9: a long time, and it there are legitimate reasons for that. Right,
• 54:49
  Speaker 9: you can't lose it if you don't have it on you.
• 54:52
  Speaker 9: It can't be stolen from you if you get mugged.
• 54:55
  Speaker 9: Businesses don't have theft if they don't have to handle it,
• 54:59
  Speaker 9: it gets moved around. I understand all the reasons why.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Dave, I'm Dave. I'm a bartender. To me, cash is king.
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: Please continue, No, I get it.
• 55:09
  Speaker 9: But the flip side of that is, I mean, you know,
• 55:12
  Speaker 9: I don't like the whole idea of central bank digital
• 55:15
  Speaker 9: currency or cash to society for many reasons. But if
• 55:19
  Speaker 9: you take out any sort of conspiratorial angle that someone
• 55:22
  Speaker 9: might say, oh that that could never happen, that's conspiracy
• 55:25
  Speaker 9: or whatever, well, we know the power goes out. I'm
• 55:29
  Speaker 9: old enough to remember when the power went out here
• 55:31
  Speaker 9: in the Greater Cincinnati region for almost at least here
• 55:34
  Speaker 9: in Fort White for almost a week, right after a
• 55:36
  Speaker 9: big wind storm. About to buy some stuff out. You
• 55:39
  Speaker 9: don't have to take my word for it. You can
• 55:40
  Speaker 9: see examples where nation state actors have knocked out power grid.
• 55:46
  Speaker 9: Russia did all kinds of attacks on Ukraine many years ago,
• 55:50
  Speaker 9: long before this current conflict, that knocked out their banking
• 55:53
  Speaker 9: system and atmm's and that sort of thing. So my
• 55:56
  Speaker 9: point is this, most software is not designed with security
• 56:03
  Speaker 9: and robustness in mind. It's designing to speed to market,
• 56:06
  Speaker 9: ease of use, market share, and collecting your data in mind.
• 56:09
  Speaker 9: We have software everywhere now. You know, it's not like
• 56:14
  Speaker 9: thirty forty years ago when you know people were still
• 56:17
  Speaker 9: using cash extensively. You could get cash easily as we
• 56:22
  Speaker 9: move to more things like PayPal, veno, et cetera. If
• 56:24
  Speaker 9: the power goes out for any league cyber attack, natural disaster,
• 56:29
  Speaker 9: h e MP attack, bad guys in a foreign country
• 56:34
  Speaker 9: decide to flip the switch and turn off the power grid,
• 56:36
  Speaker 9: or flip the switch at all of our so called
• 56:38
  Speaker 9: smart devices and turn them off. We talked about that before.
• 56:41
  Speaker 9: I've posted this recent article from the Army Cyber Center
• 56:46
  Speaker 9: at West Point warning about Chinese cyber explosures in place.
• 56:49
  Speaker 9: You know what are we doing about it? Meaning you know,
• 56:52
  Speaker 9: backdoors and all this cheap software Internet of things devices
• 56:55
  Speaker 9: we have. If the grid goes down for any length
• 56:58
  Speaker 9: of time, at the telecom system goes down for the time,
• 57:02
  Speaker 9: how are you going to get money? How are you
• 57:03
  Speaker 9: going to do anything? For that matter. But thankfully they
• 57:07
  Speaker 9: seem to be waking up to this idea in Europe.
• 57:09
  Speaker 9: And if I just hit a couple of points here,
• 57:13
  Speaker 9: now the country that led Europe's modern march towards the
• 57:15
  Speaker 9: taxes societies among those reconsidering that journey, and they're joint
• 57:18
  Speaker 9: concerns about cyber attacks. We just hit it conflicts, power outage,
• 57:22
  Speaker 9: privacy and national resilience. And that's really the point I
• 57:26
  Speaker 9: want to make at the end of the day. The
• 57:28
  Speaker 9: ability to transact in cash is about national security and resilience.
• 57:33
  Speaker 9: You know, forget all the other reasons why you might
• 57:36
  Speaker 9: not like this. If and when the system goes down
• 57:39
  Speaker 9: for whatever reason, and they just sit on a couple
• 57:41
  Speaker 9: of key ones there, you need to be resilient. Now,
• 57:44
  Speaker 9: they're going to say most transactions in these countries remain
• 57:46
  Speaker 9: cash if the adoption rate for cash is transactions is
• 57:49
  Speaker 9: leveled out, and now the government is creating a sentence
• 57:52
  Speaker 9: to stabilize the current level of cash usage rather than
• 57:55
  Speaker 9: letting it fall further. Now this is in Swede where
• 57:57
  Speaker 9: again they led this. This is a direct quotes from Eric.
• 58:00
  Speaker 9: I'll part pnnounce the name of Eric Seeden, the governor
• 58:03
  Speaker 9: of sweden Central Bank Reserve. We need to think about
• 58:05
  Speaker 9: resilience if everie.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: Hello, Dave, Hey, Dave, Dave, Yeah, your your your signal
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: is completely gone. I tell you what, We're going to
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll come back to this.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: Dave Hatter with us on this Friday morning on fifty
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: five KRC the Talk State. When we were last talking
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: to Dave Hatter, we were talking about the the president
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: or the governor of Sweden's banking system, talking about resilience
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: and perhaps going back to some currency as opposed to
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: a cashless society, which Sweden was at the forefront of
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: in Europe. Dave, when we last left, when when our
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: phones left their senses, we were talking about what was
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: going on in Sweden's If you want to continue from
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: that point, this is.
• 59:03
  Speaker 9: Such an important topic. Herre Jeff, you know, as I
• 59:06
  Speaker 9: was saying, and I don't know how much you got.
• 59:07
  Speaker 9: There was a great quote from Eric Steedon, the governor
• 59:10
  Speaker 9: of Sweden's Central Reserve Bank, who said we need to
• 59:13
  Speaker 9: think about. We now need to think about resilience. If
• 59:16
  Speaker 9: everything breaks down, we need to have cash. And that's
• 59:19
  Speaker 9: you know, resilience is the key thing we need to
• 59:22
  Speaker 9: be thinking about here. I know everyone is enabled with
• 59:26
  Speaker 9: their little babbles and shiny objects and all this technology
• 59:29
  Speaker 9: and so forth. But as we keep adding more and
• 59:31
  Speaker 9: more so called smart devices, more technology, more software into
• 59:35
  Speaker 9: our systems, in particular anything related to the banking system
• 59:39
  Speaker 9: and the ability to transact commerce, you know, we need
• 59:42
  Speaker 9: to move slow and do it carefully so that we
• 59:44
  Speaker 9: don't have a significant outleage. It brings everything down, and
• 59:48
  Speaker 9: you know, I think their perspective on its right. They
• 59:50
  Speaker 9: also go on to say in this article official government
• 59:53
  Speaker 9: guidance in quote emergency preparedness unquote brochures. Since the Swedish
• 59:58
  Speaker 9: households recommend citizens maintain at least one week worth at
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 9: catch available at a time of crisis, other adopting countries
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 9: are taking similar steps, it goes on to say in
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 9: the article, Increasingly policy makers and we've already talked about
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 9: Sweden and other countries that have been pushing the trend
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 9: towards a cashless digital society include Denmark, Estonia, Finland and
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 9: the Netherlands. So see this as a really positive trend.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 9: And again I understand why businesses, why governments want digital transaction.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 9: I understand why cash creates problems. But at the end
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 9: of the day, when systems go down, and they do
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 9: we've seen that again, power outage, unspot, natural disaster, foreign adversary.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: You have to have a way.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 9: To be able to transact with people, and the idea
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 9: that some of our system is anywhere near ready to
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 9: be fully digital and fully cashless is totally crazy in
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 9: my mind. So I'm really happy to see that some
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 9: of the people that have been leading on this foot
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 9: are starting to pull back and even act way again
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 9: in Sweden warning those citizens about this and telling them
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 9: that they should have the cash on hand. That to
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 9: me is a very positive development. Well, more people need
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 9: to talk about this, more people need to understand this.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 9: I'll post this this particular article and a couple of
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 9: other related articles I've found on this on my social media.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: But this is a good step in the right direction.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: Gain, I agree, it's a good step in the right direction,
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: but it leaves me a kind of conflicted Dave, because
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: this is true. We both know it's true. The governor
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: of the banking system in Sweden knows it's true. But
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: it confirms that Fani Willis's father was right when he said,
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: a girl's got to keep some cash around the house.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 9: Isn't it weird around?
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: Yes? So isn't it weird how those lines connect? And
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: when you're talking about resilience and redundance and having a
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: plan beyond the grid and the digital it's the same
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: thing you and I have talked about with water systems,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: with our systems, with any kind of system that's reliant
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: more and more in the cyber world, on the cyber
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: world and on the grid. What if any MP happens,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: What if terrorists get a hold of your the controlling
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: computer that's in charge of everything. You need to have
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: a way to do it the old fashioned way. You
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: have to. You need to have that redundancy, don't you.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: We do.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 9: And you know, one of the reasons why I got
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 9: out of software engineering and made the shift into more
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 9: cybersecurity focus was because, as a guy who wrote a
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 9: lot of software, I know how I know that the focus,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 9: as I mentioned before, is generally not on privacy and
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 9: security or robustness even it's typically on speed to market,
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 9: ease of use, market share, functionality, those kind of things.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 9: And as we add software into everything. You know, one
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 9: of the one of the complaints I hear from people
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 9: fairly regularly, which I fully agree with, by the way,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 9: is you know, now that everything is smart quote unquote
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 9: by the way, that makes it vulnerable. But now that
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 9: it's smart, right, you can't really fix things anymore. And
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 9: a lot of people, until you really start to dig
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 9: into it, don't realize there's the whole Digital Rights Management
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 9: Act out there that goes back to the late eighties
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 9: slash early nineties timeframe when Hollywood was concerned about copyright
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 9: on videotapes and BBDs and that sort of thing. And
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 9: you know, there are lawsuits out there now. I'm sure
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 9: some people have heard of some of them, Like with
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 9: John Deere. You buy an expensive tractor, you think you
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 9: own it, Well you really you really don't because you
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 9: can't really work on it. They claim they own the
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 9: intellectual property of the software that makes it work, and
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 9: you can't really can't really do anything with it, right,
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 9: And this is not unique to them. I encourage people
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 9: to go to look at the look up various lawsuits
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 9: for these sorts of things. Your modern car, it's increasingly
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 9: difficult to work on, and depending on what you can
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 9: try to do to it, you might run it up
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 9: against the Digital Management Act, where again you're now violating quote,
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 9: the intellectual property of whoever made that vehicle or anything
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 9: that has software in it. Right, And my point is
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 9: because I segued off the original plant. But my point
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 9: is all of software has flaws. Software goes down, patches
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 9: break things. Think about the crowd strike thing a few
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 9: years ago, right. Crowd striking is essentially in antivirus software
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 9: that a patch from the vendor knocked out millions of
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 9: Windows computers around the world. And as you know, Gary, Jeff,
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 9: I'm no lud eye. I'm not against this stuff. I'm
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 9: against how rapidly this is all happening, and the fact
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 9: that both the people making this stuff and our society
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 9: isn't there again, enamored with the revenue. They're enamored with
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 9: the profits, They're enamored with the wow factor, the coolest
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 9: convenience of these things. They're not thinking about what is
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 9: the long term impact on society and how resilient are
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 9: these things. So when a large number of them of
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 9: any sort go down for any reason, could be again
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 9: a cyber attacked by the Chinese Communist Party. As I
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 9: mentioned in the last segment, More and more you see
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 9: agencies like the FBI, the Army, the CIA, the NSA
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 9: warning about infiltration into the telecom network, warning about infiltration
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 9: into the telecom creator. When I filtration, I mean manipulating
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 9: the software leading back doors, doing things that would potentially
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 9: allow them to flip the switch and either change its
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 9: behavior or shut it down. Think Stuck's met virus that
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 9: happened to Iran, you know, fifteen years ago. As opposed
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 9: to your point, you know, can we still operate in
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 9: a manual way? What happens when this stuff goes down?
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 9: What happens when there's a giant sunspot? Are you familiar
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 9: with the Carrington event carriage sent ring in Velisilia?
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: No, not off off the top of my head. Tell
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: me real quickly.
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 9: Back in the eighteen hundreds, the Carrington event, and I
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 9: may not have the exact date right, was essentially a
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 9: giant solar flare that was so strong it like set
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 9: telegraph wires on fire and knocked out the telegraph system
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 9: in a large part of the country. I mean It's
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 9: well documented. This isn't something I'm making up.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 8: No, no, I believe can you imagine what happened.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 9: If we had another one of those today, especially in
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 9: Cash's society. So again, I hate to be the doomsday guy. Gary, Jeff,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 9: I'm just trying to trying to wake people up and
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 9: convince people we need to slow down with all of
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 9: this stuff and think about resilience. Ren Milience is our watch.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: Part of the day. Anytime you can convince someone to
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: use cash. I'm a big fan. Dave. Well, I have
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: a singular question that I wanted to ask you about AI,
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: and we'll do that right after this. It's fifty five KRC.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: Good morning. A couple more minutes with Dave Hanner this morning,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: and Dave, I wanted to ask you. I saw this
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: story earlier today about humanity facing AI singularity in as
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: little as four years. What is AI singularity? Can you
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: describe that for me?
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 9: Well, typically when you hear people talk about the singularity,
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 9: they're talking about the point where you hit super intelligence.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 9: I mean, people use the term in different ways.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 9: Sometimes people will use it to describe like humans and
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 9: particularly the transhumanist type movement of like sort of becoming
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 9: cyborgs and merging with technology. But the more common usage
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 9: of it typically is around you hit a point where
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 9: you sort of reach super intelligence with AI. It's smarter
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 9: and more capable than you know, all of humanity, at
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 9: which point you don't really know what happens.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 3: There's a great.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 9: Book on this called super Intelligence by a guy named
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 9: Nick Bost. It's about as well over ten years old now,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 9: and it talks about this sort of thing. You've got
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 9: guys like Joy curs While out there, the keyboard guy
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 9: who's talked about this a lot, and others. You know,
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 9: I'll be honest with you, Garrett, Jeff, I think there's
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 9: so much hype around this, and there's so much hype
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 9: coming out of the people making this stuff trying to
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 9: pump up the valuations. I'm not too worried about that
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 9: at the moment. You know, who knows what's in some
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 9: lab somewhere that I don't have access to. Maybe I
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 9: don't know, but I kind of doubt it. And there's
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 9: a lot of people out there. Gary Marcus would be
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 9: one people a lot smarter than me who are saying, yeah,
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 9: we'll know we're even close to something like that at
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 9: this point. So you can find all kinds of countervailing
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 9: opinions on this, and you know, people are all over it. Again,
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 9: there's so much hype and hyperbole around this, it's hard
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 9: to know what's really true. But there's a lot of
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 9: really smart people, again, way smarter than me, people working
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 9: in the industry, people that know way more about this
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 9: than me, who are saying, yeah, we're no, we're even
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 9: close to that. Because the large language models you see today,
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 9: the kind of things that most people are using, the cats,
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 9: Epps and so forth, are basically just probabilibility engine with
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 9: a lot of data. Right, They're just figured out what
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 9: word is most likely to come next. That's why they hallucinate,
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 9: you know, make things up that are completely long. And
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 9: I've seen some of these smart people say, you know,
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 9: you can't really fix that in the way these things work.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 9: So we'll see, but I'm not I'm not convinced.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: Like the AI like the AI tool story of Dodge
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: Ram wanted to create an AI T shirt and it
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: had a picture of a Toyota tundraw on it.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 9: Yeah, And that's why you would hope, you would hope
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 9: that people would understand things like the hallucinations and that
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 9: you have to check the work. You can't assume that
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 9: anything it tells you. This is one of the reasons
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 9: why I'm concerned about augentic Ai. The idea that you're
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 9: going to let the rather than you give it a
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 9: prompt and give you a response, You're going to have
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 9: it do things automatically. Yeah, I'm concerned about that because
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 9: you can't. It's not deterministic. It's probabilistic. You can ask
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 9: the same question and ten different times you get ten
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 9: different answers. That's not how most software works. If you
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 9: enter two plus two, it gives you four every time,
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 9: because that's the way it's designed to work. It's deterministic.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 9: But yeah, we'll see again. I think there's a lot.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: Of hyperd more supermarketing than maybe hyper intelligence.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 9: I think I think so, Gary Jeff all.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: Right, Dave, thanks a lot, appreciate the conversation. Tech Talk
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: every Friday. You can follow Dave on LinkedIn and various
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: social media platforms and see him everywhere. We'll take a
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: break and come back your phone calls and more. Gary
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: Jeff in for Brian this morning on fifty five krs.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: See the talk station six minutes past the hour. Now
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: on this Friday, heading into the weekend, Gary Jeffin for Brian,
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: just got a text from Ron Wilson. I'm miss seeing
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: that guy around. Of course, was in the garden on
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: fifty five KRC for decades on Saturday mornings, right down
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: the hall for me doing my show on the other station,
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: and it was it was when Ron would say, go
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: out of town to Columbus to do the gardening show
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: from those studios, or was on a remote. It just
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: wasn't the same around here, and I guess it'll never
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: be the same. And the new guy who's doing the
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: show is a perfectly nice guy. He's fine, but he's
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: not Ron. But he texted, keep up the great work.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: I wonder what he's listening to. We're allays counting on
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: you and Hi missus R two D two Walker. I
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: call my wife Chris to two point zero because it's
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: the second time we've gotten together, second marriage, so I
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: call her, but Ron always refers to ors R two
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: D two Ron. It's good to know you're still out there.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: I love you, I miss you, and we have to
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: get together soon, like we talked about. Okay, let's make
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: sure that happens switching gears seven o eight. You know
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: you or I here in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky didn't
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: have the opportunity to vote for Karen Bass or Spencer
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: Pratt or the Ramen Noodle Chick for the mayors race
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: in LA. We don't live in La, although under California
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: voting laws, it's possible you could be living here and
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: have voted in the LA mayors race. Considering that California,
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: and we've all heard it's totally legal. It's the law
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: to cheat. If you were ever registered to vote in
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: California and you moved, you still get ballots sent to
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: your mailbox apparently, even though you've been gone for six
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: or eight months. To register to vote in California, all
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: you need is a debit card or a gym membership
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: to register to vote. You don't need a photo ID,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: you don't need any of that. That bothers that that's
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: just voter repression requiring of a valid photo ID. The
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: Supreme Court, one of the cases that they are still
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: hashing out and they're set to side soon could come
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: out today. Who knows whether states can accept mail in
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: ballots that arrive after election day that could invalidate the
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: so called grace period in states like California. And again,
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: we weren't voting for mayor of Los Angeles, well at
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: least I hope we weren't. I wasn't. Just kind of
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: watching it, though very closely, kind of rooting for Spencer Pratt,
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: not because he was running as a non Democrat, he
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: was more independent than he was Republican, but just to
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: break up that system of one party in competency that
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: has become what California politics overall has become because of
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: this one party system, so it seems like the most
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: incompetent people get elected. But anyway, and a lot of
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: people around the country were watching that race. Obviously it
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: became a national story. California is a big state. There
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: are a lot of electoral votes, lots of representation in
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: California that's sadly again mostly one party rule, and that's
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: the way they've planned it. That's the way they worked
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: it out. And the governor's race too, which surprisingly Steve
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: Hilton did finish in the top two and will be
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: in that you'll actually have a Republican versus a Democrat
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: come November in California. But this decision by the Supreme Court.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: If it comes today, It's going to come down soon,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: one way or the other. After enormous attention paid across
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: the country to the results in the battle for mayor
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: of Los Angeles and the governor's contest in California. It
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: would likely have no bearing on those races, though a
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: governor's race, which is a statewide race, or a mayor's
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: race because it's local. This would only deal with federal contests,
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: which includes US House seats, so it could have wide
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: ranging implications on how things get done voting wise in California.
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 1: No matter what their law says, the Supreme Court could
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: supersede those mail in ballot requirements that California now, which
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: are practically none. I mean, how many voter dumps did
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: we get? I think there was a good word for
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: it too, it was a ballot dump because it smelled
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: a high heaven. It's unbelievable that people wouldn't want to
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: have verification, People wouldn't want to have a timeline where
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: they would know an outcome. I mean, we're Americans. We
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 1: crave instant gratification. We want it right now, We want
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: it right right now. That's not all was easy to achieve,
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: but it's really difficult to achieve when you've got ballots
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: coming in and somebody else made the point that the
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: ballot had to be postmarked by election day, even though
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: it could be received after election day. But a lot
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: of times there's no postmark anymore on mail. Have you
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: noticed that? And they were allowing people to write their
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: own postmark. It's the honor system in a state where
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: there is very little honor left or integrity and for
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: the homeless and the drug addicts, dignity for that matter.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: It's great. But watching scotis for that decision on mail
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: in ballots, and it would relate to federal elections, so
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: they can still have their Banana Republic elections, I guess
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: in LA and for the governor's seat. Yeah, seven fourteen
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: at fifty five krs DE talk station. So we talk
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: about all kinds of things that we need to worry
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: about or concern ourselves with, or need to stop or
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: need to start doing. My question this morning, if you
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: care to chime in, is what is the biggest issue
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: in your life? What issue that we talk about really
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: affects you the most in your day to day walk
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: in just getting through the day in living. I'm curious
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: to what's really the issue, not necessarily a problem, maybe,
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: but perhaps something that helps get you through all of
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: the craziness that we're going through. And I'll pose that
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: to you now five one, three, seven, four nine fifty
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: five hundred, because I know my biggest struggle is not
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: worrying about the Epstein files or whether we're at war
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: with Iran, or even gas prices. My biggest struggle is
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: usually internally and you know, trying to mold myself to
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: what I believe God's will is for my life. That's
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: my biggest issue every day. That's that's a primary thought
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: on my mind most of the time, and followed in
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 1: succession by of course making ends meet, making a living,
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: getting through a day, getting to all all the different
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: things that I have to get. Yesterday I had three jobs.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: It just happens that way, and it happens for other
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: people too. But I'm curious as to you, what's your
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: biggest mountain to climb? What is primarily on your mind?
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: Is there anything on your mind at all? Are you
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: wrapped up in your social media and your phone? Have
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: you become one of those people or do you see
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: somebody has an item at work, say that you kind
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: of covet like a Florida woman named Ariana Moss who
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: went through a pre trial intervention agreement to agree to
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: pay fines and court costs related to the theft of
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: a coworker's Stanley cupp The Florida woman And where else? Huh, Danny,
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: we got somebody calling with a problem. The Florida woman
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: who stole a coworker's Stanley cup, which is a very
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: expensive it's not the thing from the NHL. It's very
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: expensive coffee cup if you didn't know, so, she could
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: use it to store her breast milk. As accepted responsibility
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: for the theft, and we'll also have to go through
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: a shoplifting awareness course. It's a misdemeanor and it'll be
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: dismissed upon her successful completion of a six month program.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: But she stole the forty ounce insulated tumbler, and before
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: she did, she said she'd pointed to it and used
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: this cup would be great to hold my breast milk.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: Who thinks like that? And do you think that maybe
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: she's got bigger issue She's figure out? Joe, Joe, are
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 1: you there? Hello? Joe, Joe, you're on the air. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: this is Joe. Yeah yeah. So what's your big issue
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: what's on your mind every day? Mortgage fraud and trying
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 1: to get through it. So what do you mean mortgage fraud?
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: Described the situation.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 10: Well, it has been done upon me by my loved one,
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 10: seating financial misconduct, and it just I've got an attorney
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 10: and I'm spinning my wheels and it just is not
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 10: going anywhere. And uh, I just want everyone out there
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 10: to know that they should be paying more attention to
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 10: what's going on at home because I did not. I
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 10: trusted my wife and now I'm paying severely for it.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: That's me out It's it's an incredible thing when when
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: a relationship falls apart, when you have trust in someone
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: in six years, unbelievable. And you know, and I know
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: that there are They always say there are two sides
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 1: of the story. I always say, there's three sides of
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: the story. There's his story, her story, and the truth
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: and the truth. But I feel terrible for you that
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: you're going through this right now. I just want to
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: chime in. Oh no, I'm glad man. That's what I offered.
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: I offered the forum for you to do exactly what
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: you just did and at least get it off your
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: chest and we'll be thinking about you today. Joe, good luck,
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 1: tell you, sir, you bet says seven twenty four Jay
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: and Dayton, good morning, Hey, good morning, Hey.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 2: I want to build on your good comments a question
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 2: about what's our biggest problem. I think we all have
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 2: a shared biggest problem, and that is where are we
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: going to spend eternity? Which is what you were alluding to.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 2: And you know that the Bible says we kind of
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 2: put that burden on ourselves as people, and we lay
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 2: down and we say it to night man. I hope
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 2: my journal, I hope my pluses are bigger than my minuses,
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 2: and I hope I've done enough good. The Bible never
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 2: says that. The Bible says for God to love the world,
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 2: that he gave his only big gotten son, but whosoever
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 2: believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 2: The only action verb there is believed. And anybody out
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 2: there who's not sure if they're good enough or not,
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 2: let me assure you you're not.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 6: But Jesus was.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 2: And if you read Romans or any other book of
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 2: the Bible that Paul wrote. He said, our salvation comes
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: through him. It's a gift, it's not wages that we
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: can earn. And so I applaud you for bringing that
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 2: up today. Now maybe my number two. Now I'm going
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: to get worldly is the size of this government and
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 2: the increasing spending.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 7: I think is if I was to take just.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 2: A worldly point of view, which is wrong, I had
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 2: to keep an eternal point of view and hang on
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: to that.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 7: But whether we're.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 2: Talking Columbus or Washington, DC, or Donald Trump, I hear
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 2: now that they're building an arch outside of Arlington and
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 2: where we're working twenty hours a day and some sort
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 2: of arch of the triumph kind of.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 7: Know what it's going to cost.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, And so we're spending overtime and untold millions
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 2: in a country that's broke. Try to get this done
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 2: while he's still in office. I could give a rip
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 2: if it ever gets done at all.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 11: We're broke.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 2: And you see what's going on in Columbus with all
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 2: the medicaid fraud. I think that that is just you know, jobs.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 2: I think Mike Dwine looks at that whole industry as
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 2: jobs and grow something he desperately needs in Ohio. But anyways,
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: back to the first and most important point. If the
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 2: listener's out there, if you haven't accepted Jesus Christ and
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: you're wondering where your your eternity's going to be, you
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 2: can do that today and you don't have to any
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 2: more worry about whether you're good enough or not.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 3: He was accept the gift.
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 2: He's a savior.
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 3: He's the bridge.
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 2: Between centful man.
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 7: And Holy God.
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: And whatever you do, don't vote Democrat, don't vote Rhino.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 3: I appreciate what you do.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: Ok, Jay, thanks a lot. I appreciate the phone call.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 1: He got it all in there. Seven twenty seven. What's
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: on your mind? This is the hour to air it
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: out and Steve, you're next when we come back after
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: a break on fifty five krc DE talk station, Gary
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: chamfan for Brian this morning. What's on your mind? What
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: is eating you? If? What are you obsessing about? What's
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: constantly in your thoughts? Steve in Sincy, what's on your mind? Man?
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 3: Does that me?
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 11: Yeah?
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: You? Okay? Yeah?
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 8: Just one of the colleges, Carey John three sixteen. Yes,
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 8: I just have a comment about it, the kind of
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 8: belief talking about in John three sixteen. If you believe
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 8: is the kind of belief that changes your life.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, I absolutely.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 3: I would add to that.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 8: Anybody's interested to take a look at John, the Gospel
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 8: of John John fourteen fifteen. If you look it up
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 8: John fourteen fifteen.
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, you've given us some homework. Oh okay, yeah, I'll
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 1: get right on it. Man. Thank you. Jim in sense
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 1: a medicare fraud is on your mind, right.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 12: Yes, yes, Hearry Jeff coming home last night from Worth
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 12: and I see a sign down there on the courner
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 12: fork and Montanas says, get paid fourteen dollars an hour
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 12: to take care of your relatives. Sounds like some only
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 12: things from Columbuses and made his way as his many.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, it's everywhere across the country, Jim. It's not synonymous
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: with the Minnesota or California or Ohio. It is countrywide.
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: And when Jay earlier was talking about we're broke, that's
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: a big reason we're broke. You know. Society's societies fall
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 1: when the public decides that they're going to vote themselves
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: money out of the treasury, and they do it in many,
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: many ways. They vote for people who condone and encourage
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: medicare fraud as it looks like that happened in Minnesota
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: with Governor Tim Walls and the Attorney general there, Keith Ellison,
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: who not only turned a blind eye to it, but
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: with a nod and a wink and couraged it. You know,
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: it's it's somebody else's money, it's ours to take, basically,
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: is the philosophy. And the fraud is the fraud is
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: rampant all over the country, and so of course it's
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: moved to Ohio.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 12: Just kind of blatant for your sign a printed from
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 12: a post professional prinyer sign sitting there on the corner
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 12: and say hey, come come take care of us. It's
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 12: more medicure.
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: Money, absolutely, and the people who actually need the care
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: and the money and the treatment, well they're sol because
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: of stuff like that. Pete on a cell phone? What's
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: on your mind, Pete?
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 11: Yes, sir, Okay, I'm gonna make a real quick point.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 11: The difference between a million and a billion, say dollars
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 11: or second, it's eleven days. You get a million seconds.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 11: A billion seconds is thirty one years. I cannot comprehend
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 11: what a trillion is, No, sir, said sir. My biggest
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 11: gripe is is men don't work anymore. I've got the
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 11: coolest job in town. I'm a commercial draft beer plumber.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 11: I go bars and restaurants and well, never try a
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 11: skinny cook. But I take them apart, I clean them,
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 11: I put them back together, are install I take care
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 11: of the refrigeration, cool, clean, crisp beer for everybody. And
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 11: I can't get guys to fricking work. And it's like
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 11: you're driving around half the time in between customers. It's good,
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 11: it's worked. You're up and down steps and got to
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 11: push some kegs around. But you know, these guys, they
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 11: just don't have They don't last. They they either have
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 11: mechanical skills and won't work, or have no skills.
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: And refuse to learn.
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 11: And real, yeah, you want to correct me by noon,
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 11: telling me how well I'm going to do it my way.
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 11: Give me a freaking break, dude. My family's been doing
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 11: it since nineteen thirty nine. And I can't convince you
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 11: that I think I've got this. And let's just you
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 11: sit back and listen and learn, and it's amazing. And
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 11: that's that's my biggest gripe. Sir. Well, the trillions of
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 11: dollars weren't debt.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 1: Of course, all right, Pete. And that's a legitimate gripe.
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: And it's obvious everywhere that the work ethic. It's not
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: an old man thing. It is just a state of
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 1: the way things are, sadly in our society. And it's
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 1: another symptom of us having it just way too good
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 1: for way too long in this country, that we just
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 1: expected to be dropped into our laps. I got, I
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 1: got a zoom call. I don't have to go into
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 1: the office. I'll order some food in today because I
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: don't feel like going two blocks to Arby's or wherever
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: to get my sandwich. Oh hey, your groceries delivered. It
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: does provide jobs for people who do want to work.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: But the laziness, the overall laziness component of today's modern
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: society in America is insane. Seven thirty six fifty five
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: KRC the talk station Ellie eddiey seven on a Friday morning,
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 1: Gary Jeffan for Brian, and the prevailing question in this
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: hour is what is most on your mind? Is it?
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: Is it war? Is it the Epstein files? Is it
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 1: the true brillions of dollars that our country is in
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: debt and your share is in the hundreds of thousands.
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 1: By the way, is it trans gender issues either way?
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: No pun intended. What is it ballot counting for Rick
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 1: in Western Hills. It's ballot counting? Good morning Rick?
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 13: Yeah, Hi, Just some of these results never add up
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 13: in these elections, you know, like the last city council election.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 13: You know, Liz Kidding didn't win Hyde Parks. She's from there.
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 13: And all these people that were sign a petition to
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 13: stop from a building a high rise on Hyde Park Square,
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 13: there's like five thousand of them, yet she only got
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 13: four thousand votes. It doesn't make any sense. The machine
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 13: that counts the votes as a computer, it's a talling machine.
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 13: It's different than the scanner. It's a tally machine. It's
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 13: at the Board of Elections. But way back in two
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 13: thousand and nine, Barack Obama said, everybody in the country,
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 13: every county, has to get the same one dominion boat
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 13: county machine. What's a computer built in China? And why
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 13: can't it be hacked? AI hacked everything?
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 12: They people.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 13: Computers can be hacked by anything in anybody. And people
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 13: can rig our elections. And I think they rig our
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 13: local elections, they rig our state elections, They rigg our
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 13: national elections.
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 1: Well, Rick, here's the way to solve this. Number one,
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 1: You pretty much eliminate mail in voting eliminated. Uh. You
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: go to paper ballots, hand marked, hand counted, and I
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: bet you'll get I bet you'll get your results quicker.
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 11: Uh.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 13: Then, well, I absolutely one hundred percent agree. But they
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 13: never count the paper ballots, even when it's close. And
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 13: you know, there is no way on earth that Smitherman lost.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 13: There's no way on the Keating loss. They only lost
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 13: by a few hundred votes. I mean there's five six
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 13: thousand votes cast. Why can't you just recount them as
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 13: a thing. You're allowed to ask for a hand recount
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 13: if you're running. They never do, like they're afraid to
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 13: or something. I would make it happen if I'm going
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 13: to run for any office next time, I would insist
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 13: on a count by hand. And Ramas Swami they'll try
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 13: to rig down against him. He should make him hand counting.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 13: He got to pay for the hand count. He's got
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 13: the money to pay for it.
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: Well, Rick, Uh, you still might not win because your
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 1: skin's not a certain color and you're not a Democrat.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: Did you ever think of about that?
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 13: Hamilton County was always republican, always, no way, A long
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 13: time ago.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 1: What I don't know, but the city, the township.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 13: He's from here, it's freaking crazy.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: The city of Cincinnati is not Republican. It hasn't been
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 1: for a long time. Hamilton County, yes, the city he.
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 13: Know, not white and the Smitherman had a lot of
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 13: support before in the black community, and he talked on
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 13: the radio this channel for years and yours and he
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 13: had support from both sides, and he had name recognition.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 13: There's no way that he lost an election. If you
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 13: would have had a hand counted, he would have won.
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 13: They would have found out that it's rigged.
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 1: Uh, you know what. And I understand exactly where you're
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: coming from and what you're saying, and I agree with
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 1: most of it. I think there is definitely an issue
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: with dominion computer systems, but that's all I'll say because
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: I can get sued like Fox News did now. There
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: are definitely issues with the way we're holding elections in
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 1: this country, and a lot of it stemmed maybe that
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: was the whole purpose behind the scamdemic with COVID, well,
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: so they could safeguard rigging our election from this point forward,
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: with mail in ballots with lowered expectations, with early voting,
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: with extra voting time, it's like a soccer match. Oh,
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: we're in extra time now. The election of twenty twenty six,
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: It certainly will be an interesting watch when we get
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: to November, because the Democrats fully expect and history suggests
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 1: that the Democrats are going to win back the House
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: of Representatives and the Senate. It almost always happens at
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 1: the midterm of whoever the president's whatever party the president is,
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 1: it goes the other way, the pendulum swings. But in
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 1: a survey I yesterday, it looks like the Republicans may
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 1: keep the House and the Senate in November. But it's
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: going to be an interesting to watch to see those
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 1: election results and what possible improprieties may be used to
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 1: sway it one way or the other. Seven forty six,
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 1: Good morning, fifty five KARC the Too Station, going back
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 1: to Pete's conversation, has called earlier this hour about not
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 1: being able to get anybody to work and what has
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 1: happened to the ethic of working hard, making an honest
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 1: day's living, you know, And part of the answer is
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 1: that there are people who are getting paid right now
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 1: and buy the thousands. From what I can see in
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 1: the different protests around the countries to protest, and they're
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 1: almost all leftist based, and they are funded by billionaires
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 1: who are sending people out to crying billionaires. We like
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: our billionaires, they pay us. We hate those billionaires. It
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: is funny, actually, but a lot of people are. That's
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: a profession now, the AstroTurf protester, and that seems like
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 1: a lot harder work than I don't know, doing beer
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 1: draft coolers. But I remember being twelve years old and
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 1: out cutting grass for neighbors and stuff. You know, get
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 1: on the bike right around, say hey, can I cut
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 1: your grass? And an amazing thing happened here in twenty
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: twenty six. I would give you a little shot of
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 1: hope here that it's not completely gone in this country,
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 1: that work ethic, the entrepreneurial spirit. About a month ago,
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 1: I hadn't been able to find time to get out
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 1: and cut my little postage stamp of a front lawn.
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 1: It takes me about seven eight minutes. That's relatively flat,
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 1: so it's not a big deal. But there's a knock
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 1: on the door. The grass is getting kind of high,
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: and it's like must have been a ten to eleven
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 1: year old kid, Hey, can I cut your grass? It
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 1: was like amaze that hadn't happened in years in the
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 1: same neighborhood, had a couple of kids help dig us
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 1: out when it snowed this winter. There are some parents
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 1: that are doing their job properly in Southgate, Kentucky. But
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 1: it just floored me. I said, well, I was going
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: to get it, but sure, I just loved that he
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: had the ambition to get up out of the house,
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 1: get off his iPhone or his PlayStation, and go around
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: the neighborhood with a mower and gas and going, hey,
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 1: I'm here to work, put me to work. I loved it.
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 1: But it doesn't happen very often, and it hadn't happened probably,
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: like I said, for no probably five or six years,
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 1: where it's just that, yeah, I'm ready, let's go. I
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: got things I want to do with my life. I
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: got things I want want to buy. My mom and
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 1: dad said I had to go and cut grass if
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 1: I wanted, if I wanted any money, because they were
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 1: done giving me the money just for existing, for breathing.
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 1: So it does still exist, and we need to foster
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 1: that and encourage that as much as possible, especially in
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 1: young people. Maybe the pendulum is swinging back to the
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 1: right side of the fence. I don't know. Michael Pack is,
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: I believe, CEO of Palladium Pictures. He's a producer and director. Rather,
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 1: he's a producer and director of The Lockdown Dissidence. It
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: is one of the Wall Street Journal's Opinion Documents documentaries
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: WSG Opinion docs you may have heard of them, so
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 1: a series of documentary films produced by a collaboration between
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal Opinion and Palladium Pictures. And he
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: will be joining us in just a few minutes after
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 1: eight o'clock to talk about the documentary that spotlight scientists
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: who challenge COVID nineteen policies and face censorship for it.
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: And these guys are no slouches. They are, as they say,
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 1: experts in their field. We'll talk to Michael Pack about
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: the documentary in just a few It's seven fifty six
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: at fifty five KRC the talk station. All right, getting
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 1: into the eight o'clock hour, expecting Michael Pack, writer, director,
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 1: producer of The Lockdown Dissidence. I was telling you about
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 1: it just before the top of the hour there. Wall
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 1: Street Journal Opinion Doc part of a series that Wall
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 1: Street Journal is doing WSJ Opinion Docs, and it talks
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 1: to and spotlights the scientists and well known doctors who
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 1: are recognized as experts in their field and how they
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 1: were censored and in many cases they were almost blacklisted
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 1: from the profession from straying from the COVID nineteen lockdown
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 1: narratives that were imposed on all of us. I was
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 1: no expert, but I knew they were bogus too. Anyway,
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 1: waiting to get a hold of Michael. If we don't,
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 1: it's okay. The question of the morning has been And
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 1: continuing in that theme, what is the primary thing on
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 1: your mind? I mean, we spit all kinds of problems
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 1: and issues at you all the time and talk radio,
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 1: but what are you really concerned with? And Paul has
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 1: a chance to uh to spleen vent himself. Now, Paul,
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 1: good morning, you're in the air.
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 8: Yeah, good morning. You don't have enough time here. All
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 8: of them, but one to drive me crazy is voting.
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 8: Then we should have three minute voting. Now, how do
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 8: you do that? You pick up your ballot two or
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 8: three weeks ahead of time, take it home, put it
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 8: on your refrigerator. Look kind of study it and do
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 8: whatever we're going to do with it. Fill it out,
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 8: take a picture ID, and to go and to the
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 8: voting pole. Don't booze poll and then you scan your finger.
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 8: You did not vote, good, Give me your ballot, give
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 8: your ID. They do that. You step and that's what.
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 8: Dip your finger, drop your belt, you out the door
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 8: and take it all to get out of your car
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 8: and go in and out of the building. That would
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 8: the vote people go to vote. They stay there and
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 8: they're looking for a port I d a porterlet what
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 8: they I wish this live would boob? I got to
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 8: either that or well the hell would our vote next year?
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 8: And get out a line and leave.
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 1: I've never done that. I've never got out. I've never
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 1: got I got to tell you when I where I vote.
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 1: I don't even see a damn line.
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 8: Paul, Well, it is a lie. The thing of it
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 8: is that I do him a three minute voting. That
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 8: this stuff of voting, and today and next week they
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 8: got more ballots and man.
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: No, you're right, you're right mail ballot. I believe in
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: election day voting period. End of story. Thanks for the call,
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: and I can understand he's frustrated. Matt in cold Spring,
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 1: have you got something for us?
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 13: Yeah?
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 14: I got some and get off my mind. But anyway,
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 14: first of all, I want to ask you a question.
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 14: Do I remember you playing music for a station back
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 14: in Cincinnati back in seventy eight? No seventy one.
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no no no. I didn't
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 1: come to Cincinnati until nineteen ninety four.
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 12: Okay.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 1: Anyway, you're making me a lot older than I am. Matt.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 14: I thought I remember somebody Gary Jeff Walker, working for
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 14: like an album rock station, But I guess I had
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 14: that wrong. Anyway, Uh, I'm the guy that a lot
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 14: of people hate. Glenn Beck. For one, he hates people
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 14: that fall asleep at the drop of a hat. That's me.
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 14: I can. I can fall asleep. I can be sitting
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 14: there watching TV. My wife looks at me and says,
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 14: you're going to be sleeping, aren't you. I said, no,
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 14: I'm okay, I'm Two minutes later, I am sleeping. I
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 14: fall asleep.
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 1: Well do you have do you have narcolepsy?
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 14: No? No, I just I get relaxed when I'm not
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 14: working because I'm working. I've been working all morning in
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 14: the garden n Wilson and cutting down some brush and
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 14: stuff like that. So I get up there early this morning.
• 1:47:51
  Speaker 14: I was up at four o'clock and I didn't have
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 14: to be, but I get my coffee and dang bang,
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 14: I'm out there working and I got my health. Which
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 14: I'm sixty five years old. I got my health. I
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 14: can do all kinds of physical stuff. And I'm retired.
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 14: That's good. I retired early. I really have not yet.
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 14: I don't like what's going on politically in this country.
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 14: If I had a beef, it's that the Dems are
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 14: your crap and a lot of Republicans aren't much better.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 1: But ware right about that.
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 14: Yeah, but that's pretty much all I had to say.
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 14: Thanks for listening to me.
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 1: Oh you bet, you bet. Go back to the garden.
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 1: It's going to be nice today. Get this rain out
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 1: of the way. Yeah. On this subject, he said, politics,
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 1: I generally hate politics, all kinds. I hate that it
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 1: consumes so much of our lives, so much of our
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 1: time thinking and commiser rating over and wringing our hands
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: about politics and Dems and Republicans and God, I hate
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 1: Trump and the whole the whole ball of wax is
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 1: just kind of nonsensical. A friend of mine years ago
• 1:49:17
  Speaker 1: said politics is sports for geeks, and I pretty much agree.
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 1: The only reason I care is that politics sadly overtakes
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 1: our lives and it changes how we live our lives.
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 1: I don't think politics in America was ever supposed to
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 1: change your life or alter the way in which you
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 1: choose to live. I thought it was just I thought
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: it was protecting. You're right to choose the way you
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 1: want to live. Scott in Cleaves, what's on your mind?
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 15: This is a perfect man, and what you just said
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 15: is exactly correct. And all I was going to say
• 1:50:05
  Speaker 15: is how grateful I am. I'm grateful for the safe
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 15: travels I've had thus far. I'm grateful for the love
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 15: that I have around me and the love I've been
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 15: allowed to give.
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 1: Oh man, that's that's excellently said. I agree, that's that's wonderful.
• 1:50:21
  Speaker 1: All right. God bless man, God bless me, God bless you. Yeah,
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 1: Gratitude is is probably my my guiding light most of
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 1: the time, as as far as focus and direction. What
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 1: he said, though, grateful for the safety and travels that
• 1:50:43
  Speaker 1: he's he's been through, for the people that love him
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 1: and his ability to love them back. I mean, that's
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 1: important stuff. It's it's a lot more important than who
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 1: the county auditor is or even who the president of
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 1: the United States is. I love the question people at
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 1: how's life treating you? And I think, you know, instead
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 1: of just giving the pantanca, oh, pretty good, pretty good,
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 1: I always say, well, generally, life in this world pretty
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 1: much treats me crappy. It's how I treat myself and
• 1:51:26
  Speaker 1: others that matter. And it's true. But the fact that
• 1:51:33
  Speaker 1: we have to focus so much on politics, not just
• 1:51:36
  Speaker 1: on the radio, on this show or any show, or
• 1:51:40
  Speaker 1: in our social media or in our podcast if we
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 1: have one, or in our conversations, our general conversation, I
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 1: think we talk too much about politics. I think it's
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 1: become too important. It's not supposed to be that important
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 1: in our life. It's supposed to be there as a
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 1: safeguard so we can live our lives the way we
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 1: choose to do, as long as we're not hurting someone else.
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, but to be able to just enjoy life,
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 1: liberty and the pursuit of happiness, isn't that what the
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 1: last two hundred and fifty years has supposedly been about
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 1: in the United States of America. I thought, So, it's
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 1: not how beautiful the reflecting pool is, or it's not
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 1: about how can I get some of that money for myself.
• 1:52:49
  Speaker 1: It's about they should be taking less of the money
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 1: that I earn and giving it to someone else. But
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 1: that's not the way it works, unfortunately. I don't know.
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 1: I just think that we put too much emphasis and
• 1:53:07
  Speaker 1: allow politics to have too much control over our day
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 1: to day lives. We can't ignore them, and you should vote,
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: but obsessing over it every day. People who are professional politicians,
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 1: that's got to be a job that just absolutely wears
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 1: you out. An elected office was never supposed to be
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 1: a profession, a livelihood. It was supposed to be necessary
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 1: to represent your fellow citizens, but it wasn't supposed to
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 1: be a career. Let's take a break and come back
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 1: with Joyce fifty five KRCV talk stations. Now, I spent
• 1:53:56
  Speaker 1: a lot of time lining up books, guests, things that
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 1: I think might be interesting, and then when they don't
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 1: show up, it's it's kind of disappointing. But then I
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 1: realize I've got a whole audience of guests who are
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 1: willing to chime in how about that five one three,
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 1: seven hundred and Joyce has held on the line. Thank
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 1: you for your patience, dear, what's on your mind?
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 5: Hey, good morning Gary, Jeff. Just a couple of things.
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 5: First of all, the gratitude, boy, that can change your
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 5: mindset in a flash.
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 16: My mom used to always tell me you could always.
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 5: Find something to be miserable about.
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 16: How about trying to find.
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 5: Something to be happy about instead? And I'm she told
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 5: me that years ago and I'm lived by those words
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 5: and it's always helped me. And the second thing is,
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 5: as far as the politics go, dude, it's pervasive. Is
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 5: that everything they injected into our sports, they injected into
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 5: our entertainment. There's nothing we can do get away from
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 5: politics these.
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 16: Days unless you just completely unplug and live in the woods.
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 16: I mean, what are you going to do to get
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 16: away from it?
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 1: Well, I think just don't give it the energy. Uh,
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 1: you know, if if, if, if any kind of essence
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 1: or any kind of entity is denied energy, eventually it
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 1: seems to be less pervasive. And I think we we
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 1: kind of we kind of we kind of feed into
• 1:55:29
  Speaker 1: what we're inject they're they're injecting into our lives. We
• 1:55:33
  Speaker 1: feed into it, and the more we feed into it,
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 1: the more that is. That is kind of like it's
• 1:55:40
  Speaker 1: gratification for them, and say, oh, well they want more,
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 1: they're feeding into it. Let's keep it, let's keep it rolling.
• 1:55:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's yeah, that's true.
• 1:55:49
  Speaker 17: And really, the one thing that I was going to
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 17: say that's on my mind and I'll hang up this mine,
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 17: is that the rampant abuse and frauds to the two
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 17: billions of dollars.
• 1:55:59
  Speaker 5: To me, if there is a legislator in BC or
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 5: locally that really is fiscally conservative, they would be doing
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 5: everything possible to route out the billions of dollars of
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 5: our money that's going to frosters.
• 1:56:14
  Speaker 16: And that praise on me.
• 1:56:16
  Speaker 17: I'm almost a Social Security age and thought that I've
• 1:56:19
  Speaker 17: counted on My husband and I are smart, you know,
• 1:56:22
  Speaker 17: we plan for retirement. But still think of all the
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 17: Social Security recipients that wouldn't have to worry if they
• 1:56:29
  Speaker 17: had the billions of dollars in fraud that are being
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 17: built from us on the.
• 1:56:33
  Speaker 1: Daily everywhere insolvent by twenty thirty two, joyce, that's six years.
• 1:56:39
  Speaker 8: Sure, yep, I've heard that.
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 16: I'm not counting on it. Because I don't think it'll
• 1:56:43
  Speaker 16: be there.
• 1:56:44
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, I mean, Joyce. I'll be honest with you.
• 1:56:47
  Speaker 1: I'm not smart and I didn't plan well. So my
• 1:56:51
  Speaker 1: retirement plan and I've said this for twenty years, and
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you now my reply. My retirement plan is death.
• 1:56:58
  Speaker 1: As long as i'm physically I will be doing something
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 1: for a living. I guarantee it's luck. As long as
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 1: somebody will hire me to do it and I'm physically able,
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 1: I'm working. I like to work.
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 16: Well yeah, I mean, I'm a retired teacher, but now
• 1:57:15
  Speaker 16: I clean houses, so yeah, I'm the same. I've always
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 16: worked at work since I'm fourteen, and I can.
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 5: I will work until I have to stop working exactly.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 1: Well, listen, I'm grateful that you called. Continue to rejoice,
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 1: joyce in the things that you have and and all
• 1:57:35
  Speaker 1: of the blessings that we can count.
• 1:57:37
  Speaker 5: Okay, amen, brother, I'm more blessed than I deserve.
• 1:57:41
  Speaker 1: Yep, me too, me too, Thanks all right. A twenty five.
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 1: Johannah Newman is our guest on the other side, if
• 1:57:49
  Speaker 1: she decides to show up. If not, I'm thoroughly enjoying
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 1: talking to you, so we can continue that on this Friday,
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 1: June the twelfth, twenty twenty six, Sunday's the President's birthday.
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 1: Did you send him a card? I got two or
• 1:58:06
  Speaker 1: three emails just this morning from President Trump. They always
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 1: seem to be needing money, and the Democrats are just
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 1: the same way. But I didn't think the President needed money.
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 1: They're always asking for money. To join now for an
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 1: expenses paid trip tomorrow a lago. I'd like to go
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 1: eight twenty five and some change fifty five KRC the
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 1: Talks Day. I remember being ten years old, summer night
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 1: in the West Burbs of Chicago when we lived there.
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 1: So I'm ten years old, and all of a sudden,
• 1:58:53
  Speaker 1: on the fourth of July, I'm watching the fireworks and
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 1: I started I started crying, not because I was afraid
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 1: or scared of the fireworks, but I had this overwhelming
• 1:59:09
  Speaker 1: and nobody told me to feel this way, this overwhelming
• 1:59:13
  Speaker 1: sense of pride and patriotism that I was part of,
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 1: that celebration that I was born in this country. It
• 1:59:22
  Speaker 1: just hit me. Fourth of July and Thanksgiving are my
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 1: two favorite holidays because to me, they are both all
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 1: American holidays. In three weeks, the United States of America
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 1: will celebrate its birthday two hundred and fifty, the anniversary
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 1: of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, our statement
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 1: that said, we are an independent country, we are on
• 1:59:56
  Speaker 1: our own, and we want liberty and freedom to reign
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 1: on this continent, and for two hundred and fifty years
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 1: pretty much has so as we approach this one of
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 1: my two favorite holidays, this most important American birthday, there
• 2:00:22
  Speaker 1: are communities canceling the fourth of July. And we have
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 1: a woman who has agreed to come on this morning
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 1: who can answer questions as to why cities like Long Beach, California,
• 2:00:45
  Speaker 1: and Nantucket are scrapping traditions of celebration around the country.
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 1: And this is another way that the left has really
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 1: really invaded not only our academic but also our church families.
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 1: On Nantucket, for example, a church scrapt it's twenty five
• 2:01:15
  Speaker 1: year tradition of reading the Declaration of Independence so the
• 2:01:18
  Speaker 1: congregation could and I quote better understand their own whiteness.
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 1: What is this madness? Johannah Newman here to answer it.
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 1: She has got a new novel out called Trump's Superpower.
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 1: And we'll speak to these things on the verge of
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 1: America's two hundred and fiftieth birthday, Johannah, Welcome to the show.
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 4: Thank you so much. I love your introduction.
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 1: No, I'm serious, and I don't know what happened if
• 2:01:50
  Speaker 1: that had been instilled in me somewhere through my parents
• 2:01:54
  Speaker 1: or through public school education, which back then wasn't under
• 2:01:59
  Speaker 1: federal control. You know, we're talking about the late sixties,
• 2:02:03
  Speaker 1: long before the federal Department of Education had come into
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 1: being and come to influence local public schools. I got
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 1: a pretty good school education, but it was just this
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 1: overwhelming wave of emotion I felt at a particular Fourth
• 2:02:20
  Speaker 1: of July celebration and it just hit me how how
• 2:02:24
  Speaker 1: blessed I was to be in America.
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 9: Aren't we? Aren't we all?
• 2:02:30
  Speaker 4: And you know, I think of the Declaration of Independence
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 4: as our mission statement. Yeah, and the clarion calls of
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 4: Jefferson's writing still movement. All men are created equal, And
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 4: despite what the Democrats say, our rights do not come
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 4: from man or from government. They come from the Creator.
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 4: And no government can exist without the consent of the overned.
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 4: And for me, those three things are like our mission statements.
• 2:03:06
  Speaker 4: And I it's I'm as for fight as you are
• 2:03:11
  Speaker 4: by you know, just when you think the Left can't
• 2:03:14
  Speaker 4: sink any further, they cancel Fourth of July. It's just
• 2:03:19
  Speaker 4: it's it's shockingly well.
• 2:03:20
  Speaker 1: It is it is, it is, it is the it
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 1: is the the specter of President Trump, though, Isn't it
• 2:03:27
  Speaker 1: that's making them so nice?
• 2:03:29
  Speaker 4: Sure, I'm sure you know. I call my book Trump's Superpower.
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 4: But the subtitle is a historical novel about the Founding
• 2:03:38
  Speaker 4: fathers and one Founding mother, and I bring the Founders
• 2:03:42
  Speaker 4: down from heaven for our two hundred and fifty birthday.
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 4: They have a lot of amusing interactions with twenty first
• 2:03:50
  Speaker 4: century Americans that you know. Ben Franklin gets arrested for
• 2:03:55
  Speaker 4: mis gendering someone and George Washington gets his teeth picks,
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 4: and all these funny things happened. But they also have
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 4: this serious ongoing conversation among themselves about whether this is
• 2:04:08
  Speaker 4: the country they meant to leave. And at one point
• 2:04:11
  Speaker 4: they encounter protests at the very National Archives there there.
• 2:04:18
  Speaker 4: I brought them down to be actors in the reenactments,
• 2:04:22
  Speaker 4: and you know they are. Their reaction to the protesters
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 4: is Thomas Jefferson is very He's not surprised by any
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 4: of it. He never thought that the Founding, you know,
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 4: he thought that every generation should interpret the Founding for themselves.
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 4: But the others are pretty horrified.
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 9: And I'm I'm with you.
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 4: I I had a father who was the son of
• 2:04:54
  Speaker 4: an immigrant for whom the fourth of July was was magical.
• 2:05:01
  Speaker 4: And I remember we were growing up. He would he
• 2:05:05
  Speaker 4: would stop people on the fourth of July and say
• 2:05:08
  Speaker 4: happy birthday, and they would look at him quite puzzled
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 4: because I got my birthday And he said, oh, yes,
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 4: it's all about birthday. Yeah, so that is my perspective too.
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 4: And I you know, when Mayor montdani has issues an
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 4: executive order banning more than twenty people for gathering on
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 4: the fourth of July.
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 1: But wait a minute, but the street parties are okay
• 2:05:36
  Speaker 1: after Knicks games.
• 2:05:38
  Speaker 4: Apparently. Yeah, it's no, no hypocrisy. Well enough, But the
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 4: other one that broke this week is that Karen Bass,
• 2:05:49
  Speaker 4: the mayor of Los Angeles, canceled a parade of fifty
• 2:05:55
  Speaker 4: years standing in Tohunga. Sun went to hunt it's called
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 4: suggesting that they do it on a different day.
• 2:06:08
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean the day is July fourth. Is July fourth?
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, she said, you know, do it on a
• 2:06:16
  Speaker 4: thick another day.
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 1: So in your book, go ahead, Well, I was going
• 2:06:23
  Speaker 1: to say, in your book you talk about anyway, finish
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 1: your thought and then we'll get more to the book.
• 2:06:29
  Speaker 4: Okay, what I was going to say. And the question
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 4: of why they're doing this, it's my belief that the left,
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 4: which has been dishing the Founders and the Foundings for
• 2:06:45
  Speaker 4: more than one hundred years. I know that in nineteen
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 4: thirteen a historian named Charles Beard wrote a seminal work
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 4: on the Founders saying that they hadn't created this country
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 4: tree for freedom or liberty, but because they were greedy,
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 4: economic bastards. And ever since, you know, the Academy has
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 4: piled on with charges of racism, sexism, and white colon
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 4: is enamel, and the press, of course, is following suit.
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 4: There's a recent article in The New Yorker where the
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 4: author offers off suggests that the patriotism can debase the country,
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 4: and he sort of frowns on it. And for me,
• 2:07:41
  Speaker 4: it was a tell because they think they're better than us.
• 2:07:48
  Speaker 4: They think they look down these glocity looks from above,
• 2:07:54
  Speaker 4: the professional academics and the professional critics, and they sort
• 2:08:01
  Speaker 4: of mock us for fireworks and barbecues and flag waving,
• 2:08:09
  Speaker 4: and they're missing the joy as far as I'm concerned.
• 2:08:13
  Speaker 4: In they're arrogance. They are missing the joy.
• 2:08:17
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, you talk about Charles Beard in nineteen
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 1: thirteen odd timing who was the president of the country
• 2:08:28
  Speaker 1: in nineteen thirteen, Woodrow Wilson, when we started, when we
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 1: started this long slide to socialism. It's been over one
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 1: hundred years. We have two hundred and fifty years birthday
• 2:08:40
  Speaker 1: as a country. But for the last one hundred plus
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 1: years now that founding has been under assault in the
• 2:08:52
  Speaker 1: corridors of power in historians and these elitist kind of
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 1: lofty ivory tower. And in your book Trump's Superpower, you
• 2:09:07
  Speaker 1: you talk about John Adams warning to his wife Abigail
• 2:09:12
  Speaker 1: that there will be no end of it. Women will
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 1: demand to vote, which becomes a running thread through the book.
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah. No, he was present president. I mean, he thought
• 2:09:24
  Speaker 4: if they went forward with this that everybody would want in.
• 2:09:29
  Speaker 4: You know, he worried about slaves and Indians and even
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 4: unpropertied men who weren't allowed to vote in those days.
• 2:09:42
  Speaker 4: And I, you know, and and I actually in the book,
• 2:09:46
  Speaker 4: I send him home early because he's just having a
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 4: lot of trouble adjusting to You know, we are really
• 2:09:53
  Speaker 4: genuinely a diverse nation. And I'm not talking about illegals,
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 4: just named legally. We have different threads in.
• 2:10:04
  Speaker 1: Our fabric as e pluribus unum out of many wars.
• 2:10:09
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes so, but I of course is inevitable. And
• 2:10:15
  Speaker 4: that's what makes those words so precious.
• 2:10:18
  Speaker 1: Hey, can you can you can? Can you wait just
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 1: a second? I need to I need to to pay
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 1: some bills here and and we'll come back and we'll
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 1: finish the conversation. Johannah Newman is our guest. The book
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 1: Trump's Superpower, where he brings where she brings the founders
• 2:10:35
  Speaker 1: back to modern day America to see what what God
• 2:10:42
  Speaker 1: or man has wrought in the two hundred and fifty years.
• 2:10:45
  Speaker 1: Hence eight forty three at fifty five KRC, the talk station.
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 1: You're a grand old flag. You're a high flying flag.
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 1: Forever in peace, may you wave. You're the emblem of
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 1: the land. I love the home of the free and
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 1: the brave. That's right. Every heart beats true under red,
• 2:11:05
  Speaker 1: white and blue, where there's never a boaster or a brag.
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 1: But should all the quaintances be for God. Keep your
• 2:11:11
  Speaker 1: eye on that grand old flag. As we get closer
• 2:11:16
  Speaker 1: and closer to America's birthday, as Johannah Newman said, our guest,
• 2:11:21
  Speaker 1: it's everybody's birthday. Who's an American? Johannah, welcome back. We're
• 2:11:26
  Speaker 1: talking about Thank you your novel, Trump's Superpower, which, by
• 2:11:32
  Speaker 1: the way, I think that the title of it's brilliant
• 2:11:36
  Speaker 1: because if you want to sell a book, put President's
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 1: Trump's name in it. That's but you bring back the
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 1: Founding Fathers, You bring Benjamin Franklin back to modern day
• 2:11:49
  Speaker 1: America to see how things have gone. And you said,
• 2:11:51
  Speaker 1: he gets arrested for misgendering someone.
• 2:11:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and Jonathan Churley represents him a trial, and it's
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 4: like it's one of my better chapters, I think. But
• 2:12:04
  Speaker 4: I you know, the reason I call that Trump's Superpower
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 4: is that I believe that President Trump understands how much
• 2:12:17
  Speaker 4: we need the Founders and the Founding and he is
• 2:12:20
  Speaker 4: trying to rescue them from this cabal.
• 2:12:23
  Speaker 12: He is, you know, of.
• 2:12:26
  Speaker 4: Left wing critics. He is marshaling a huge celebration. I
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 4: don't know if he's noticed what's going on in DC,
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 4: but he he's cleaning it up in every way. I mean,
• 2:12:39
  Speaker 4: the statues that were toppled during the twenty twenty riots
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 4: are standing again. My favorite is a man named Caesar Rodney,
• 2:12:50
  Speaker 4: who who at the time of the revolution was quite ill.
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 4: He had skin cancer that was painful, and he drove
• 2:13:01
  Speaker 4: eighty miles on his horse from Delaware to get to
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 4: Philadelphia so he could sign the Declaration of Independence because
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 4: he thought every colony should be represented. And he was toppled.
• 2:13:20
  Speaker 4: And I noticed when Trump brought him back that ABC said,
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 4: you know, described him as a controversial figure, and I thought,
• 2:13:29
  Speaker 4: what I mean, you know, what's the controversy. The man
• 2:13:33
  Speaker 4: was a patriot, and I guess that's the rub. They
• 2:13:37
  Speaker 4: don't love patriots.
• 2:13:38
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, that's the thing, you could be.
• 2:13:42
  Speaker 4: Trump is cleaning up the city. He's all the fountains
• 2:13:47
  Speaker 4: are now flowing. Christopher Columbus, who was up at Union Station,
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 4: the graffiti has been removed from him. And of course
• 2:13:56
  Speaker 4: the reflecting pool which under and Biden have been the
• 2:14:01
  Speaker 4: sort of algae color because it kept the cement kept
• 2:14:05
  Speaker 4: cracking and the leaks, you know, the green algae just
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 4: came in and Trump has figured out how to fix it.
• 2:14:12
  Speaker 4: And now it's redone in what it's called American flag blue.
• 2:14:20
  Speaker 4: And so I feel like Trump is sort of trying
• 2:14:24
  Speaker 4: to replace squalor with beauty. He's telling us that we
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 4: are a gorgeous nation. We have beautiful statuary, we have
• 2:14:37
  Speaker 4: beautiful public works, and we should celebrate them absolutely.
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 9: You know, I.
• 2:14:46
  Speaker 4: Feel like he's standing on their shoulders to make America.
• 2:14:52
  Speaker 4: This is part of his make America Great Again.
• 2:14:55
  Speaker 3: Campaign.
• 2:14:55
  Speaker 1: Well, Johanna, I just want to finish with this. How
• 2:14:59
  Speaker 1: ironic is it? Because this proves and what President Trump
• 2:15:02
  Speaker 1: proves again that if you're determined to do it's really
• 2:15:07
  Speaker 1: doesn't take an Act of Congress or anything else to
• 2:15:09
  Speaker 1: get things done. If you want to do it, you can.
• 2:15:13
  Speaker 1: You can do it. But ironically, and they talk about
• 2:15:18
  Speaker 1: the homelessness and the drug problems and the feces on
• 2:15:21
  Speaker 1: the street in California and cities like Los Angeles and
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 1: San Francisco. Gavin Newsom was able to clean up San
• 2:15:28
  Speaker 1: Francisco for President g of China, but he can't take
• 2:15:33
  Speaker 1: the time to do it for the people who live
• 2:15:36
  Speaker 1: in his state and pay his salary in California. He
• 2:15:39
  Speaker 1: can't do it. For that reason. President Trump is cleaning
• 2:15:41
  Speaker 1: up Washington, d C. For the country. Yes, because it
• 2:15:47
  Speaker 1: can be done.
• 2:15:49
  Speaker 4: It's a beautiful thing, and.
• 2:15:54
  Speaker 1: Well it's it's wonderful to talk to you. We're running
• 2:15:56
  Speaker 1: close to being out of time, but I just anything
• 2:16:00
  Speaker 1: else you want to add about the book, Trump's Superpower
• 2:16:03
  Speaker 1: or anything else you.
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 6: Want to say.
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 4: If you go to trumps Superpower dot com, it has
• 2:16:08
  Speaker 4: a lot of information and has a link to Amazon
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 4: to buy the book, but it also has I hired
• 2:16:14
  Speaker 4: an artist who uses AI to do videos of the
• 2:16:19
  Speaker 4: founders talking about the book, and they're just adorable.
• 2:16:24
  Speaker 6: Huh.
• 2:16:25
  Speaker 1: That sounds fun. That's it. Listen, have a great, great summer,
• 2:16:30
  Speaker 1: and happy birthday early.
• 2:16:33
  Speaker 4: Yes, and happy birthday to you and all your listeners.
• 2:16:36
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Johanna Newman as we close the show out.
• 2:16:39
  Speaker 1: Glenn Beck coming up next, and that's it for me.
• 2:16:43
  Speaker 1: Brian should be back in next Monday. Have a fantastic
• 2:16:47
  Speaker 1: weekend and happy Birthday early. From fifty five KRC, the
• 2:16:51
  Speaker 1: talk station.
