0:26
Speaker 1: Vation, I'm the dude man, and I'm Brian Thomas, so
0:30
Speaker 1: sid the fifty five CARC Morning show. Glad to be
0:32
Speaker 1: and I wish everybody a happy Monday. Hope you had
0:34
Speaker 1: a wonderful weekend. Fathersday weekend. It was a great time
0:37
Speaker 1: for me. We had a nice get together my place
0:39
Speaker 1: on Saturday, had mom and the kids over, wonderful meal.
0:43
Speaker 1: And thank you for the awesomeness that was the peach cobbler.
0:46
Speaker 1: I'm a huge fan of peach cobbler. My wife makes
0:48
Speaker 1: an amazing peach cobbler, and I got the benefits of it.
0:51
Speaker 1: You kind of went off the diet there a little bit.
0:53
Speaker 1: You gotta do that from time to time, and I
0:55
Speaker 1: was more than pleased to do that. And I hope
0:58
Speaker 1: all the dad's out there had a good time. I've
1:00
Speaker 1: got a good op ud on the Father's Day. Here
1:01
Speaker 1: just a second wan to remind you it is Monday.
1:04
Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman, former Vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati,
1:06
Speaker 1: joins a program every Monday at seven to twenty doing
1:08
Speaker 1: the Smither e vent Never know what Christopher's going to
1:11
Speaker 1: be talking about. But I'm sure you'll get a reminder
1:13
Speaker 1: to get the petition signed. Yes, of course. I constantly
1:15
Speaker 1: remind the listening audience if you are registered voter in
1:19
Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati, get in touch with Christopher Smitheman's petition,
1:23
Speaker 1: which requires Cincinnati council members, seven of them, to approve
1:27
Speaker 1: hiring and firing of police chiefs and fire chiefs. Obviously
1:31
Speaker 1: an idea, that's an excellent one. I don't know why
1:33
Speaker 1: anybody would have any problem with that. Ask the questions,
1:38
Speaker 1: simple question. We're going to fire someone. Do you have
1:40
Speaker 1: a reason to fire that person? We're getting rid of
1:43
Speaker 1: police chief or fire chief Washington, raise your hand. One
1:46
Speaker 1: of the council members might do that. Hey, well, what's
1:50
Speaker 1: your reason for terminating the fire chief? Do you have cause?
1:53
Speaker 1: Because if you don't have cause, he might sue us.
1:56
Speaker 1: See just engaging in that simple conversation, which would be
2:00
Speaker 1: required if the petition goes through, makes it on the ballot,
2:03
Speaker 1: and people vote for it. Yeah, quite a few hurdles
2:05
Speaker 1: to overcome on that one. But one place I know,
2:09
Speaker 1: and there are quite a few places you can find
2:11
Speaker 1: the petition, Jim and Jackson the River so Tuesdays through Saturdays,
2:15
Speaker 1: I believe. Anyway, Christopher will certainly clear up any confusion
2:20
Speaker 1: as to where the petitions are. But also eventisiplan on
2:22
Speaker 1: maybe crime and violence. Our friends Signaled ninety nine reporting
2:26
Speaker 1: on that people are slapping her down because she was
2:28
Speaker 1: reporting on apparently roving gangs of juveniles causing all kinds
2:32
Speaker 1: of problems in downtown Cincinnati. Was it reported in the media. Nope,
2:37
Speaker 1: apparently not. Signal ninety nine knows she's got all the
2:40
Speaker 1: reports from behind the scenes, the document that yes, police
2:43
Speaker 1: were called in swat teams and others to deal with
2:46
Speaker 1: the roving gangs of juveniles. How come it wasn't in
2:48
Speaker 1: local media reports? Good question anyway, Maybe Christopher will comment
2:54
Speaker 1: on that as well. Money Money with Brian James, we'll
2:57
Speaker 1: talk about the first meeting with a new FED chair
3:00
Speaker 1: declining after the latest of talks with Iran, although those
3:03
Speaker 1: seem to be in a state of flux. Women are
3:06
Speaker 1: better savers than men, question mark. And finally, why are
3:12
Speaker 1: young investors ditching the stock market? Those great topics with
3:15
Speaker 1: Brian James looking forward to that and of course tomorrow
3:17
Speaker 1: Bright bart Inside Scoop and the Daniel Davis deeve dive.
3:20
Speaker 1: So yeah, ill we can talk a little bit more
3:25
Speaker 1: about what's going on with the mediation situation and the
3:28
Speaker 1: negotiations with the Iranians. It got stuck. The straight up
3:33
Speaker 1: horm move is apparently reclosed by the Iranians because of
3:38
Speaker 1: fighting between Hesbala and Israel. So Hesbala launches some rockets
3:42
Speaker 1: and some drone attacks kills four Israelis. Does anybody want
3:44
Speaker 1: to guess what the Israelis do in response to something
3:47
Speaker 1: like that? Right, they start bombing the targets Isbela targets
3:52
Speaker 1: in Lebanon. Let me just ask a fundamental question. Are
3:59
Speaker 1: the Israelis signatories to the Memorandum of Understanding? The answer is,
4:06
Speaker 1: of course no. The Iranians are screaming and yelling about
4:11
Speaker 1: how the United States isn't getting Israel to do what Well,
4:15
Speaker 1: the Iranians won. I guess you gotta scratch your head
4:18
Speaker 1: and say, well, Israel's a free country. They're not part
4:21
Speaker 1: of the Memorandum of Understanding. Oh and by the way,
4:24
Speaker 1: isn't Hesbala your proxy Iran? And if anybody has any
4:28
Speaker 1: control over what perhaps Israel does or what Hesbala does,
4:33
Speaker 1: Some may argue that we have some measure of control
4:35
Speaker 1: over Benjamin met in Yahoo in the Israelis response to
4:38
Speaker 1: any given terrorist attack. But others may argue that the
4:41
Speaker 1: Iranians have control over Hesbala, and if the Iranians tell
4:44
Speaker 1: haws Bala quit bombing Israel, then maybe this will stop.
4:50
Speaker 1: Has Bala also not a signatory to the memorandum of understanding,
4:53
Speaker 1: So I'm sorry, I find the whole They were supposed
4:59
Speaker 1: to be talking the about the disposition of the Iranian
5:01
Speaker 1: nuclear dust or whatever remains of the enriched uranium that
5:05
Speaker 1: we blew up inside the mountain that was supposed to
5:08
Speaker 1: be the focus sit in the ground running. Instead we're
5:11
Speaker 1: now arguing over who has control over two people or
5:14
Speaker 1: two signa two entities that are not signatory to the
5:17
Speaker 1: memory of understanding. So we can talk about that, and
5:22
Speaker 1: of course you can talk about anything you want. Feel
5:23
Speaker 1: free to give me called five one, three, seven, four,
5:25
Speaker 1: nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two three talk
5:27
Speaker 1: pound five fifty on at and T phone. Yeah. Abolition
5:29
Speaker 1: of the family is a key component of Marxism. Subtitle
5:33
Speaker 1: to Don Fetter's op ed piece about Happy nonjest dating
5:36
Speaker 1: Parents Day that was yesterday man. We're going off the
5:41
Speaker 1: rails in this country anyway, he writes. Leftists tell us
5:43
Speaker 1: when it comes to family life, men have to step
5:46
Speaker 1: up to the plate and do their duty and shoulder
5:47
Speaker 1: their share of the burden. At the same time, they're
5:51
Speaker 1: doing everything they can, everything they can to eliminate the
5:53
Speaker 1: role of fathers in the lives of their children. They
5:56
Speaker 1: cannot tell you what a woman is. Their masculine role
5:59
Speaker 1: models include Stanley Kowalski, the Brute and a street car
6:02
Speaker 1: named Desire, and a bumbling deputy Barney Fife from Andy
6:05
Speaker 1: Griffith Show. New York Governor Kathy Hockel poised a son
6:08
Speaker 1: of Bill, changing the terms mother and father in the
6:12
Speaker 1: state's family law to ges dating parent and non jest
6:16
Speaker 1: dating parent. Mother and father exclude those who are offended
6:20
Speaker 1: by biology, so in New York State, a father is
6:23
Speaker 1: no longer a man, but rather a non jest dating parent.
6:28
Speaker 1: The culture works hard to detach women from men and
6:30
Speaker 1: men from their families, and the Godfather Don Corleoni asked
6:33
Speaker 1: singer Johnny Fontaine whether he spends time with his family.
6:36
Speaker 1: Then the Don observes a man who doesn't spend time
6:39
Speaker 1: with his family can never be a real man. We
6:43
Speaker 1: have somehow forgotten this wisdom bluff's efforts to make fatherhood
6:47
Speaker 1: irrelevant or working. In the US, approximately one in four
6:49
Speaker 1: children now grow up in a home without a father.
6:52
Speaker 1: The absence of a father makes it more likely that
6:54
Speaker 1: children will do poorly in school and be involved with
6:57
Speaker 1: drugs and crime. Our survival is any nation depends on marriage, children,
7:02
Speaker 1: family cohesion, then we are heading for the abyss. In
7:05
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty only six percent of forty year olds had
7:08
Speaker 1: never been married. By twenty twenty one, it's twenty five percent,
7:11
Speaker 1: the highest number ever recorded. And fertility continues to drop,
7:16
Speaker 1: and the bottom is nowhere inside nineteen seventy to fertility rate.
7:19
Speaker 1: The number of children the average woman has in her
7:21
Speaker 1: lifetime was two point four to eight. Today it's one
7:24
Speaker 1: point six, well below the replacement rate at two point one.
7:29
Speaker 1: None of this is an accident. Karl Marx made the
7:32
Speaker 1: abolition of the family a key component of communism. The
7:35
Speaker 1: Left has never wavered from that goal. It wants women
7:39
Speaker 1: to be dependent not on husbands, but rather on the state.
7:43
Speaker 1: It wants children raised not by families, but collectively through
7:47
Speaker 1: public education and mass media. As your pre k education
7:51
Speaker 1: for you creeping in Ah women go to work, you know,
7:54
Speaker 1: will take care of your kids from womb to K
7:57
Speaker 1: and K through twelve and then of course in after that,
8:01
Speaker 1: one big long, steady in doctrination. Cam. Sorry, I interjected
8:05
Speaker 1: that to the op ed piece, But damn it, this
8:06
Speaker 1: really irks me and wish more people would pay attention
8:09
Speaker 1: to it. It's turned education into a doctrination. After twelve years,
8:14
Speaker 1: children from conservative families are radicalized. That's why sixty two
8:18
Speaker 1: percent of Americans ages eighteen to twenty nine have a
8:21
Speaker 1: favorable view of socialism. Now schools are indigender transitioning. They
8:29
Speaker 1: want to make your son think he's your daughter. Despite
8:32
Speaker 1: the foregoing, Democrats cannot figure out why they consistently lose
8:35
Speaker 1: the male vote, and twenty twenty four, President Trump got
8:39
Speaker 1: fifty five percent of the men's vote, up from fifty
8:41
Speaker 1: percent to twenty twenty, including sixty two percent of white men,
8:44
Speaker 1: a majority of Hispanic men, twenty one percent of Black men.
8:47
Speaker 1: In an attempt to understand this, Democrats just spent twenty
8:50
Speaker 1: million dollars on a strategic plan to figure out how
8:53
Speaker 1: to speak to men. I can't explain it. A few
8:57
Speaker 1: words and for a lot less money. Do not call
9:00
Speaker 1: nonjest dating parents. Ditch the expression toxic masculinity, and stop
9:05
Speaker 1: repeating by rote believe women, unless, of course, democrats are involved.
9:12
Speaker 1: Do not tell fathers you want boys competing with their
9:15
Speaker 1: daughters in sports or sharing showers and changing rooms with them.
9:20
Speaker 1: It would not hurt for democrats to find better models
9:22
Speaker 1: of masculinity than Texas US Senate candidate James Talerica, who
9:26
Speaker 1: says God is non binary and that there are six genders,
9:30
Speaker 1: and Maine's Senate candidate Graham Platiner, who has a Nazi tattoo,
9:34
Speaker 1: has sent sexually explicit messages to multiple women, was physically
9:37
Speaker 1: abusive to those he dated. Several maintain this is an
9:43
Speaker 1: obscene parody of authentic masculinity, which is modeled in the Bible.
9:48
Speaker 1: Starts with Genesis, which explains the spiritual connection between men
9:51
Speaker 1: and women. Therefore, shall a man leave his father and
9:53
Speaker 1: his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they
9:56
Speaker 1: shall be one flesh, having children as a commandment aha choice,
10:00
Speaker 1: be fruitful and multiply. Jews refer to Abraham as Abraham
10:04
Speaker 1: our father, not just the father of our people, but
10:06
Speaker 1: as a man who exemplified the most important attributes of fatherhood.
10:10
Speaker 1: These are compassion, courage, and wisdom. The left also hates
10:14
Speaker 1: fatherhood because of its bhibiblical foundation. George Orwell had it
10:18
Speaker 1: right in nineteen eighty four. Language shapes thought. That is
10:23
Speaker 1: why today's language manipulation, for example, nonjest dating parent is
10:28
Speaker 1: a threat to our future understanding. This is more important
10:32
Speaker 1: than sending a Hallmark card on nonjest dating parents' day.
10:36
Speaker 1: Don Fetter, Washington Times columnists, some good points in there. Yeah,
10:40
Speaker 1: there after the family, folks, you can't see that when
10:43
Speaker 1: a mile away. Going back to my point about pre
10:45
Speaker 1: K education, knowing full damn well what your children are
10:48
Speaker 1: into are in for with the public education system, it's
10:51
Speaker 1: an indoctrination camp. It just extends that indoctrination from the
10:55
Speaker 1: moment that child is born, taking away any influence you
11:00
Speaker 1: as a parent might have over your child's development, your
11:06
Speaker 1: child's development five on three, seven, four, nine, fifty five hundred,
11:10
Speaker 1: eight hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five
11:12
Speaker 1: fifty on eight and t phones plenty more coming up.
11:14

11:16

11:29
Speaker 1: I've been asking everybody for prayers. I'll take anything, non
11:33
Speaker 1: denominational prayers, thoughts, positive vibes flowing our way on Saturday.
11:38
Speaker 1: My daughter's getting wearied, and it looks like there may
11:40
Speaker 1: be some rain over the weekend. It's one thing I've
11:42
Speaker 1: been asking, Please put the power of prayer together everyone,
11:48
Speaker 1: just a real quick one. Let Lauren's wedding be dry.
11:51
Speaker 1: Just that's it. Everything else I figure will fall into place.
11:56
Speaker 1: One thing I have zero control over is the weather,
11:59
Speaker 1: and just really excited about the whole thing. And you're
12:02
Speaker 1: gonna be taking Friday off to deal with some final
12:04
Speaker 1: issues that I my honey do list and so far
12:07
Speaker 1: as the wedding it's concerned, have been pretty darn small,
12:10
Speaker 1: thanks to my wife. So do have some obligations to
12:13
Speaker 1: attend to on Friday, So I won't be here and
12:16
Speaker 1: I will be real probably experiencing an allergy outbreak over
12:19
Speaker 1: the weekend, so my eyes may be wet, and I
12:21
Speaker 1: just hope it's not as a consequence of rain coming down,
12:24
Speaker 1: so please thank you for indulging me on that, and
12:27
Speaker 1: while throwing a prayer our way five three seven hundred

Speaker 1: Check out Friday with Jack windsor the Colping Shoots Infest.
12:42
Speaker 1: If you made it, I hope you had a wonderful time.
12:43
Speaker 1: It's always a great time at Shuits Infest and citizen
12:46
Speaker 1: watchdog Todd zends are guys amazing, spends his retirement going
12:50
Speaker 1: through the city's books and records and pretty much reveals
12:53
Speaker 1: that well, I think you made a mistake in terms
12:58
Speaker 1: of the mayor, of the make up of council and
13:00
Speaker 1: the mayor. Anyhow. Check out what he has to say.
13:03
Speaker 1: It's pretty eye opening. And you see it here. It's
13:06
Speaker 1: the official platform of the Democratic Socialists as they rapidly
13:09
Speaker 1: expand across this great land of ours pursuing Marxism, and
13:13
Speaker 1: they're not even trying to cover it up anymore. Yes,
13:16
Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialists of America have adopted an official platform,
13:20
Speaker 1: official platform. You know, it used to be the quiet
13:24
Speaker 1: part when it came to socialists. They kept their mouths shut. Yes,
13:27
Speaker 1: they embraced socialism inside their head. They just wouldn't let
13:30
Speaker 1: you know about it, because well, that will be the
13:33
Speaker 1: end of your political career within my lifetime. Now socialisms
13:36
Speaker 1: are socialists of the darlings of the Democrats, and they're
13:39
Speaker 1: pushing the Democratic Party more and more over to the
13:42
Speaker 1: left wing side of the ledger. And with that we
13:44
Speaker 1: go to the Democratic Socialist of America New party platform. Now,
13:52
Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialist of America top leadership met for an
13:55
Speaker 1: in person meeting earlier this month, meeting of their National
14:00
Speaker 1: Political Committee, the NPC, which is the dsay's governing authority.
14:06
Speaker 1: The result of the meeting quote workers deserve More exclamation
14:11
Speaker 1: point close quote described as a rebooted platform for the
14:14
Speaker 1: organization with brand new radical proposals. The document commits the
14:19
Speaker 1: DSAY to scrapping the US Senate, get right, getting rid
14:24
Speaker 1: of it, abolishing the carcereal forces of the capitalist state
14:30
Speaker 1: that's end quote, defunding the Department of War, amnesty for
14:34
Speaker 1: all immigrants, and replacing the President and the Supreme Court
14:39
Speaker 1: with an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress.
14:44
Speaker 1: Welcome to the end of the constitution. This is obviously
14:48
Speaker 1: a reflect This is an out loud statement they want
14:51
Speaker 1: to get rid of our constitution. Workers deserve more. This
14:59
Speaker 1: campaign from another DSA committee that spent two months grappling
15:03
Speaker 1: with the language they were debating in this document. So
15:07
Speaker 1: when the National Political Committee, the governing authority, took up
15:11
Speaker 1: the document, the presenter urged the DSA to pass it unamended. However,
15:17
Speaker 1: Leadership added four amendments, one en quote real democracy again,
15:25
Speaker 1: calling for the replacement of the President and the Supreme
15:27
Speaker 1: Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate
15:30
Speaker 1: to Congress. That is a quote in the platform. Another
15:35
Speaker 1: one on police and prison abolition. Yes, we're going to
15:38
Speaker 1: get rid of the police department and the prisons. That's
15:41
Speaker 1: our car Cereal society we live in. There's a provision
15:46
Speaker 1: in there expressly naming Jerusalem as the capital of a
15:50
Speaker 1: Palestinian state that doesn't exist right now, ranked choice voting,
15:56
Speaker 1: so you're going to get California everywhere you see. Pasted
16:00
Speaker 1: a couple of these four amendments unanimously, the real Democracy
16:03
Speaker 1: provision prevailed. Yes, was a razor thin margin that it
16:07
Speaker 1: prevailed on. But that's the one where they replaced the
16:09
Speaker 1: president of the Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary
16:13
Speaker 1: chosen exclusively by subordinate members of Congress. Wow. Okay, And
16:20
Speaker 1: here it is stating it out loud their revolutionary aspirations.
16:24
Speaker 1: The workers deserve more. Platform aims to, in their words,
16:27
Speaker 1: win the battle for democracy, draft a new constitution, and
16:31
Speaker 1: create a democratic socialist republic. There you are, out loud
16:37
Speaker 1: in the open, and more and more candidates in the
16:39
Speaker 1: United States successfully running on this platform. Going back to
16:44
Speaker 1: the comments from mister Fatter about our children in the
16:46
Speaker 1: education system, that's how you do it, folks, dumb the
16:51
Speaker 1: populace down. Tell them they're not worth anything, and tell
16:55
Speaker 1: them their very lives depend upon a strong government who's
16:58
Speaker 1: going to be there to protect and save them from themselves.
17:02
Speaker 1: Five twenty six, fifty five care City Talk Station. Love
17:05
Speaker 1: hearing from you. You got calls coming in, that'd be great.
17:07
Speaker 1: Otherwise local stories. We'll see if Bobby Head is over
17:10
Speaker 1: and under from this past Thursday, right, don't go away,
17:13
Speaker 1: I'd be right back. This is fifty five KRC and
17:16
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio stage. I'm twenty nine on a Monday five one, three,
17:21
Speaker 1: two three talk pound five fifty on at phones. Ah, Yes,
17:25
Speaker 1: all's right. When the world got Tom online, Tom, Happy
17:27
Speaker 1: Monday to you, Welcome back to the Morning Show.
17:31
Speaker 4: Good morning. Did you have a good Father's Day?
17:34
Speaker 1: Yes, I did, nonngest eating parent day. Tommy didn't get
17:37
Speaker 1: the memo from New York.
17:39
Speaker 4: I could care less about any such memos. I know
17:46
Speaker 4: that's ridiculous. It is ridiculous taking away. Let's get rid
17:51
Speaker 4: of everything that stands in our way of getting what
17:54
Speaker 4: we want. Dad can't stop me because he's not even
17:58
Speaker 4: my dad, he's a nones dating parent. This is ridiculous,
18:02
Speaker 4: very ridiculous. Yeah, I mean that's what it all boils
18:04
Speaker 4: down to, Brian, this is what we want. We're gonna
18:08
Speaker 4: jump up a down, stump our feet, throw ourselves on
18:10
Speaker 4: the ground, throw a tantrum until you give us what
18:13
Speaker 4: we want. And that's that's just basically four or five
18:17
Speaker 4: year old behavior.
18:18
Speaker 1: But I guess the question is why do they want it?
18:22
Speaker 1: And I would argue that maybe mister Fetter's op ed
18:24
Speaker 1: piece at the nail on the head. It's all about
18:26
Speaker 1: underminding the family unit. But the vast majority, I mean
18:29
Speaker 1: the vast, vast majority of people left, right and center
18:32
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Know that a man is a man, a
18:34
Speaker 1: woman as a woman. You get that chromosomal biological fact
18:38
Speaker 1: that you cannot overcome. And the mere declaration that someone
18:42
Speaker 1: is a sex other than their chromosomal reality, other than
18:44
Speaker 1: they can look down between their legs and figure out
18:46
Speaker 1: what they are is absolutely the epitome of insanity. How
18:50
Speaker 1: come there isn't more resistance and out loud opposition to
18:54
Speaker 1: people just accepting the argument that someone can do that
18:59
Speaker 1: their sex is cheap merely by uttering that they have
19:01
Speaker 1: changed their sex wrong. Wake up, strong opposition.
19:08
Speaker 4: I'm going to suggest that the main reason there's not
19:11
Speaker 4: as much opposition because most people just want to get up,
19:14
Speaker 4: go to work, do their thing, and you know, leave
19:16
Speaker 4: me alone, don't bother me. So unless it unless it
19:19
Speaker 4: directly affects them somehow, unless your daughter walks into a
19:24
Speaker 4: locker room and there's a boy or man in there,
19:28
Speaker 4: that it doesn't really directly affect you, So you're not
19:31
Speaker 4: going to bother with it. And people need to understand
19:34
Speaker 4: it's coming for everybody. It's already happened to enough people
19:38
Speaker 4: these kind of things, and it's Okay, it's time that
19:41
Speaker 4: it's got to stand, take a stand. You have to say,
19:44
Speaker 4: do something you have. You can't hide and hide in
19:47
Speaker 4: your own little world, because they're coming after your little
19:50
Speaker 4: world as well.
19:51
Speaker 1: Uh.
19:51
Speaker 4: And they because they need to because the more they
19:54
Speaker 4: break this society down, the less this society provides for
19:58
Speaker 4: them what they need keep it going, and that's money.
20:01
Speaker 4: So they keep going after more money, and they keep
20:03
Speaker 4: going after more people, more cities, more states, they keep
20:07
Speaker 4: going after because they're eventually going if they succeed, rob
20:11
Speaker 4: they're going to totally tear this capitalist system down. And
20:14
Speaker 4: then there goes all the money that's behind them doing
20:18
Speaker 4: what they're doing. And the people at the top don't care.
20:21
Speaker 4: They want to destroy it and get what they can
20:23
Speaker 4: out of it. You know, now, you can't. You have
20:26
Speaker 4: to pay attention. You have to take a stand and
20:28
Speaker 4: do something. You can't hide hide to your own little world.
20:31
Speaker 4: It's not going to work. They're going to find you.
20:33
Speaker 4: They're coming after you. So obviously the most important way
20:37
Speaker 4: of the first way to really defend ourselves against this
20:41
Speaker 4: is don't vote Democrat.
20:42
Speaker 1: Talk to you tomorrow, Thanks Tom Good to hear brilliant
20:45
Speaker 1: yes and they'll vote Democratic Socialist or plain old Socialists
20:51
Speaker 1: or Marxists. Three people are dad after shooting out it

22:42
Speaker 1: I see you are on the call screen. I'll be
22:44
Speaker 1: happy to take your call, and I am looking forward
22:46
Speaker 1: to it. At a time in this segment, I'll be
22:48
Speaker 1: right back after these brief words.
22:49
Speaker 5: This is fifty five karc an iHeartRadio station.
22:52
Speaker 1: Day in a happy one to you. My time I
22:54
Speaker 1: share with the stack is stupid, but also with Jeff
22:56
Speaker 1: on the phone, Jeff was kind of up to hold
22:58
Speaker 1: over the break. Welcome to the show, Jeff, thanks for
22:59
Speaker 1: calling this morning.
23:01
Speaker 6: Good morning. I've been trying to think of positive things
23:05
Speaker 6: since I started listening to you, and I have an idea.
23:09
Speaker 6: I want your opinion. The folks that are going to
23:12
Speaker 6: be teachers during the observation process of your formal education,
23:18
Speaker 6: these folks should have the requirement of passing the same
23:25
Speaker 6: tests that immigrants take in order to become legal American citizens,
23:31
Speaker 6: at least that way. That can't you know, plead ignorance
23:35
Speaker 6: of the law. And you know more about that than
23:37
Speaker 6: I do. But the point being, especially the First Amendment,
23:40
Speaker 6: you know you might want to hone in on that.
23:43
Speaker 6: That's it, old buddy. I'll listen to your response.
23:45
Speaker 1: Appreciate it, Jeffy. I don't think they could possibly can't
23:48
Speaker 1: pass that test. It's a very detailed civics test involving
23:51
Speaker 1: our founders, founding fathers and the basis of the nation
23:54
Speaker 1: and of course, the Bill of Rights, which includes the
23:56
Speaker 1: First Amendment and the Second Amendment. I might interject, Yeah,
24:01
Speaker 1: we expect that of our legal immigrants. And yet, you know,
24:04
Speaker 1: going back to the Left, and it's in its platform,
24:06
Speaker 1: they want to make all of the illegal immigrants in
24:09
Speaker 1: this country naturalized citizens, none of whom have a foundation
24:12
Speaker 1: or connection with the American America and what it stands
24:14
Speaker 1: for and the basis for its founding. Here we are
24:18
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty years we should all be embracing
24:20
Speaker 1: and celebrating this wild success that the freedoms that are
24:23
Speaker 1: incorporated in our constitution have allowed us to enjoy. Take
24:27
Speaker 1: the ball and run with it. With no impediments from
24:29
Speaker 1: government standing in your way, you can be successful. That
24:32
Speaker 1: doesn't mean everybody's going to be successful. And that's where
24:35
Speaker 1: equity comes in, right, because it's just not fair. Some
24:38
Speaker 1: have more than others. I would argue that those who
24:41
Speaker 1: have more maybe should serve as an inspiration to others
24:44
Speaker 1: and maybe, like I do, thank those that have more
24:48
Speaker 1: for creating job opportunities for us W two employees out
24:51
Speaker 1: here in the world that will be me from day one. Yeah, civics,
24:57
Speaker 1: but you have to remember they don't want to learn
24:59
Speaker 1: that they view the founding fathers and the country that
25:02
Speaker 1: they created, and the freedoms and liberties that we enjoy
25:05
Speaker 1: as profoundly wrong, the embodiment of evil that it allows
25:11
Speaker 1: that freedom, and that capitalism flourishes and does create or
25:15
Speaker 1: well reflects the iniquities of the world. Basically because some
25:19
Speaker 1: people have greater merit than others. Some people are just
25:22
Speaker 1: simply smarter than others, and a lot of people earn
25:25
Speaker 1: more than others. And it isn't that interesting. Going back
25:28
Speaker 1: to the caller earlier about you know, they keep coming
25:31
Speaker 1: for more and more of your money. Remember, Margaret Thatcher
25:33
Speaker 1: commented on that the problem with socialism eventually you run
25:36
Speaker 1: out of other people's money. If you don't have outliers
25:39
Speaker 1: and people who make vast quantities of money and employ
25:42
Speaker 1: the rest of us, you can't tax them and keep
25:45
Speaker 1: these social programs alive. Blah, Sorry, go off on a
25:52
Speaker 1: tear on that one five one three seven ft two
25:55
Speaker 1: three talk Oh. Pickleball got stack and stupid. During a
25:58
Speaker 1: post came dispute between pickle ball players, a Florida woman
26:04
Speaker 1: repeatedly tradition struck a male victim in the head with
26:07
Speaker 1: her pickleball paddle, leaving him bloodied with an injury to
26:10
Speaker 1: his face. A thirty first incident curtin of pickleball courts
26:15
Speaker 1: in Treaty Park in Saint Augustine, Florida, resulting in the
26:20
Speaker 1: filing of a felony case against a woman named Michelle Banister,
26:24
Speaker 1: described as a forty seven year old registered nurse. Records
26:27
Speaker 1: say that the were involved in a doubles dispute. A
26:30
Speaker 1: doubles game, a dispute arose between players about the retrieval
26:35
Speaker 1: of a ball. Words in the report. Punk completion of
26:41
Speaker 1: the match, Ron Bennott, who's fifty, went to speak with
26:45
Speaker 1: the defendant son, regarding a critique of his playing style. Benatt,
26:51
Speaker 1: described as a Treaty Park regular and devotee of pickleball.
26:56
Speaker 1: Police said that during the course of the dispute between
26:59
Speaker 1: Benatt and her son, Banister interjected herself into the argument
27:04
Speaker 1: and then struck the victim in the head several times
27:07
Speaker 1: with the pickleball paddle, leaving injury to his face that
27:10
Speaker 1: caused several cuts and a large amount of blood. Idiots
27:13
Speaker 1: doing idiot things because they're idiots, Yes, cop showed up.
27:17
Speaker 1: Banister allegedly provided them with a fake name. When questioned
27:21
Speaker 1: by police, she claimed that she was defending her son. However,
27:24
Speaker 1: officers reported that there did not appear, based upon victim
27:28
Speaker 1: and witness statements, to be an eminent threat to life,
27:30
Speaker 1: limb or propensity propensity of violence about to occur. In
27:34
Speaker 1: other words, there was no justifiable excuse for her going
27:37
Speaker 1: on medieval on his head with a pickleball paddle. After
27:45
Speaker 1: being arrested, Banister named in a June eleventh felony information
27:49
Speaker 1: charging her with aggravated battery and providing cops with a
27:52
Speaker 1: false name. Was this trip really necessary? Hurrying too?
28:03

31:14
Speaker 1: a man on video voyeurism charges major crimes. Investigators with
31:20
Speaker 1: a Lake County Sheriff's office asked to continue the investigation
31:24
Speaker 1: after a suspicious material found on a work computer belonging
31:27
Speaker 1: to local business. Material appeared to include inappropriate photographs of
31:32
Speaker 1: adults and adolescent girls. Detective said. The investigation led to
31:36
Speaker 1: additional material on a cloud drive, including videos that appeared
31:39
Speaker 1: to show adolescent girls changing clothes and videos recorded inside
31:43
Speaker 1: a bathroom. UH Investigators later determined the videos were recorded
31:47
Speaker 1: by a concealed camera inside a church bathroom and in
31:52
Speaker 1: a room where adolescent girls were changing after a baptism service.
31:56
Speaker 1: Adding an extra airlo of discussed in this story, the

Speaker 1: person and possession of the computer, identified as Charles Barton
32:03

Speaker 1: appt title. Investigator's working to identify victims, showing the videos,
32:35
Speaker 1: some which date to the early two thousands. As victims identified,
32:40
Speaker 1: Detectives plan to contact him individually. Lucas was released on bond.

Speaker 1: Investigation remains open and active.
32:48

32:59
Speaker 9: the pinnacle of douche. Good going due your dreams have
33:06
Speaker 9: come true.
33:10
Speaker 1: Does anybody walk into a public bathroom these days and
33:12
Speaker 1: just immediately concerned about you planted cameras? I mean that
33:18
Speaker 1: feeling hasn't taken me over, but whatever, who wants to
33:20
Speaker 1: see me naked? But you know, go on Amazon and
33:24
Speaker 1: search for hidden cameras, and you immediately made painfully aware
33:28
Speaker 1: of how unbelievably pervasive they probably are, or at least
33:31
Speaker 1: very easily could be. Well le will end up in Leesburg, Florida.
33:35
Speaker 1: We got an eighty five year old toss arrested after
33:38
Speaker 1: street racing at more than one hundred miles per hour
33:41
Speaker 1: in a sports car. For some reason, they think the
33:43
Speaker 1: fact that he was smoking a cigarillo is important. It
33:45
Speaker 1: was mentioned twice in the article. It has had nothing
33:48
Speaker 1: to do with it anyway. Corner body camera video rest

Speaker 1: Bosworth said he was driving fast, in his words, to
34:26
Speaker 1: get away from him before we caused a problem. And
34:30

Speaker 1: learned about economics, you know, the Reagan era, the reality
36:24
Speaker 1: is what government does with money, and the reality is
36:26
Speaker 1: about taking money away from you, redistributing it, the whole thing.
36:30
Speaker 1: So I felt very prepared to enter into what least
36:34
Speaker 1: back then, was nowhere near the landsky the landmine landscape
36:39
Speaker 1: the children face in the education system these days. They
36:41
Speaker 1: are literally being indoctrinated to embrace socialism. So you know,
36:46
Speaker 1: it crept in a little bit. Most notably, when I
36:48
Speaker 1: got in college, I was more painfully aware of the
36:50
Speaker 1: left leaning professors, but we still had some conservative ones
36:54
Speaker 1: back then. I remember, I can almost name them by name.
36:57
Speaker 1: But I was prepared for it. Foundationally speaking, I knew
37:01
Speaker 1: what I was hearing when it was coming out of
37:03
Speaker 1: their left leaning mouths, and I was immune from it
37:07
Speaker 1: because I was smarter than that. So I shout out
37:10
Speaker 1: to Dad, and I thank you Dad. And this isn't
37:12
Speaker 1: discounting my mom. Just Dad was the more politically active,
37:16
Speaker 1: engaged person in my life growing up, and I can't
37:18
Speaker 1: thank him enough for preparing me. And it's so important
37:21
Speaker 1: that we prepare our children for this. Now the Colombians
37:24
Speaker 1: have learned it. Get a load of this. Yesterday, Colombians
37:29
Speaker 1: joined Latin America's revolt against socialism. Why are we bringing
37:33
Speaker 1: it about here when everybody else who's experiencing it or
37:36
Speaker 1: has experiencing it is throwing it out as a concept. Anyway.
37:39
Speaker 1: The Columbians elected forty seven year old businessman Abblorado d Esperalia.
37:47
Speaker 1: That's a tight vote. He was up against. Subpita Ivan
37:54
Speaker 1: suppeda of President Gustavo Petro's Socialism Party. Guess what, They're
37:59
Speaker 1: not in power anymore. That makes count them seven Latin
38:05
Speaker 1: American countries since November twenty twenty three that have gotten
38:08
Speaker 1: rid of their socialist governments because they sucked. Argentina, Ecuador, Bolivia, Honduras,
38:14
Speaker 1: Chile now have conservative, free market presidents. Peru followed this month,
38:18
Speaker 1: although it's pointed out, thank you journal for reminding us
38:21
Speaker 1: that the Kiko Fujimoro victory is not yet official. Panama
38:25
Speaker 1: Costa Rica re elected conservative governments because I guess it's
38:29
Speaker 1: going better than the prior socialist governments. Why. Economic opportunity,
38:34
Speaker 1: public safety dominant issues in the race. Also the threat
38:38
Speaker 1: to democratic institutions from left wing extremists. Venezuela, as tragic example,
38:44
Speaker 1: has been a powerful demonstration of socialists failure, especially to
38:47
Speaker 1: Colombians right next door, mister de la Esperia ran an
38:54
Speaker 1: anti establishment campaign against corruption, narco guerrilla violence, and the
38:58
Speaker 1: lack of economic mobility, promising to shrink government by forty percent,
39:02
Speaker 1: cut taxes, restore economic freedom for the gas producers. That's right,
39:06
Speaker 1: that pesky, evil fossil fossil fuel producer industry. Also pledged
39:11
Speaker 1: to break from the Petro Party of appeasing criminal gangs,
39:14
Speaker 1: vowing to build mega prisons to get the recruits off
39:18
Speaker 1: the streets. Oh wow, locking up the evil drug dealers.
39:25
Speaker 1: There's a concept. Also pledged the Convenia Constituent Assembly to
39:32
Speaker 1: rewrite the constitution. The other guy sound familiar to the
39:36
Speaker 1: Democratic Socialist of America policy, which wants to throw out
39:39
Speaker 1: our constitution and rewrite it. That's what the other guy
39:42
Speaker 1: was pledging to do. Huh, I guess the Columbians didn't
39:46
Speaker 1: want to go down that road. Now they point out
39:52
Speaker 1: that mister Petro's party still has a plurality in Congress
39:55
Speaker 1: and espirea will inherit a woeful state of finances, which
39:59
Speaker 1: is exactly what the socialists always bring about. But they
40:03
Speaker 1: observe it'll it'll hard to be do worse than mister Petro,
40:06
Speaker 1: and that Espiria will benefit from the voters rejection of
40:09
Speaker 1: socialist failure. Now, why can't we bring that reality here
40:13
Speaker 1: to the United States before it settles in Over the
40:16
Speaker 1: editorial board of The Wall Street Journal, the story of
40:18
Speaker 1: the year in American politics so far is the rise
40:21
Speaker 1: of Democratic Socialists. Their influence bears watching as the next
40:25
Speaker 1: generation charges to fulfill Bernie Sanders goal of taking over
40:28
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party avowed. Democratic Socialists of America candidate Jennie
40:34
Speaker 1: Lewis George won the nomination for mayor of Washington, d C.
40:39
Speaker 1: Last week, not even close, fifty three and a half
40:43
Speaker 1: to thirty five point nine percent over mainstream black Democratic
40:48
Speaker 1: Kenyon McDuffie. It's also noted that this Kami Democratic Socialist
40:56
Speaker 1: I might be more properly stating, did better in some
40:59
Speaker 1: ups white areas than the city in the city's black neighborhoods.
41:04
Speaker 1: This follows a pattern of thirty four year olds or
41:07
Speaker 1: on mom domie New York City. In Los Angeles, Democratic
41:10
Speaker 1: Socialist of American member Nithia Rahman made the general election
41:14
Speaker 1: ballot against Mayor Karen bass d Essay. Members in La
41:17
Speaker 1: City Council had put referenda on November ballot to let
41:20
Speaker 1: non citizens vote in city elections and give the council
41:25
Speaker 1: control of police. D essay also using its urban base
41:30
Speaker 1: to seek gains in Congress. Mister Momdami said at a
41:34
Speaker 1: rally the other day, people often ask me what I
41:38
Speaker 1: think of the state of the Democratic Party. The slate
41:42
Speaker 1: here today is our answer. Socialists. Mom Domi's pick includes
41:49
Speaker 1: Darizalia Aldaya Chevalier, a quote proud member close quote of
41:53
Speaker 1: the essay she's trying to defeat Representative Adriano Espilot, chairman
41:57
Speaker 1: of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Chevalier's place described as something else.
42:03
Speaker 1: Quote Abolish ICE because the agency exists to control our communities,
42:09
Speaker 1: not to keep us safe. Create a four day, thirty
42:13
Speaker 1: two hour work week with no loss in pay, plus
42:17
Speaker 1: a universal basic income, as well as a federal jobs guarantee,
42:25
Speaker 1: free government childcare, free pre k oh there it is,
42:28
Speaker 1: and free college medicare for all, including abortion. Federal rent
42:33
Speaker 1: control of the five percent national cap on yearly increases
42:36
Speaker 1: for existing units managed by large landlords. She believes quote
42:41
Speaker 1: all deportations are wrong because it's double punishment to subject
42:47
Speaker 1: someone who's committed a crime to both criminal system and
42:50
Speaker 1: then additionally to an immigration system. These are virtually quotes
42:54
Speaker 1: from her out of her mouth. Moving over another Mum
42:59
Speaker 1: Dami back social wills. Claire Valdez a member of the
43:01
Speaker 1: State Assembly running to replace retiring Representative Media Lsquez. Her
43:06
Speaker 1: agenda includes national rent control get used to that one another,
43:10
Speaker 1: a four day, thirty two hour work week with no
43:13
Speaker 1: change in payer benefits, AH consistency, abolishing ICE, passing Medicare
43:18
Speaker 1: for all. I guess the platform points have been rolled out,
43:21
Speaker 1: haven't they, folks. She will also end at will employment
43:25
Speaker 1: for all workers, legalized strikes for federal employees, pass a
43:28
Speaker 1: new Green deal, and put a federal freeze on residential
43:32
Speaker 1: electricity bills. That's all you gotta do. Wave your magic
43:35
Speaker 1: wand and it won't be there anymore. Huh, mom Dommy
43:39
Speaker 1: Also behind former New York City Comptroller Brad Lander, who's
43:44
Speaker 1: trying to unsee Democratic Representative Dan Goldman. Lander used to
43:47
Speaker 1: be a DSA member, but says he left after its
43:50
Speaker 1: celebratory response to Hamas massacre of Israelis October seventh. However,
43:55
Speaker 1: he nonetheless wants to pack the Supreme Court to thirteen justices.
43:59
Speaker 1: Create a national wealth tax, abolicize and past medicare for all.
44:03
Speaker 1: So you can claim he's rejected the DSSA because of
44:06
Speaker 1: that response to the Israeli massacre, but he's still a
44:10
Speaker 1: platform loyal DSA person. And they conclude these races and
44:18
Speaker 1: others across the country reflect the potent organizing of the
44:22
Speaker 1: DSA and the left wing march of young progressive voters
44:27
Speaker 1: turned out by our education system. I will interject the
44:31
Speaker 1: goal to turn the Democratic part even further left than
44:33
Speaker 1: it has moved since Bill Clinton winter loose tomorrow. The
44:36
Speaker 1: DSA agenda is gaining among Democrats. Yes it is. And
44:40
Speaker 1: as the rest of the world wakes up to the
44:41
Speaker 1: painful realities that socialism brings about and rejects them out
44:45
Speaker 1: of hand, the ignorant Americans with their indoctrination camps in
44:50
Speaker 1: public education, don't understand the context, don't have an education foundation,
44:57
Speaker 1: for example, that my father gave me and my to
45:01
Speaker 1: resist the stupidity of this, to actually pay attention to
45:04
Speaker 1: and understand the economics of what socialists try to accomplish.
45:09
Speaker 1: And you know, a broader problem with both Republicans and Democrats.
45:13
Speaker 1: If you just want to paint a broad brush over
45:14
Speaker 1: what we've got here. It's a little, it's a little
45:18
Speaker 1: more than that. But the massive deficit that has grown
45:21
Speaker 1: geometrically in size over the past multiple decades under both parties,
45:25
Speaker 1: Why because we keep funding government programs that are supposed
45:28
Speaker 1: to do something positive, it just keep putting us further
45:31
Speaker 1: and further in debt, imperiling the future of the socialist
45:36
Speaker 1: America that the DSA wants to bring about. Question to
45:38
Speaker 1: all you DSA folks out there, If we are so
45:41
Speaker 1: perilously in debt that we have to pay more than
45:43
Speaker 1: a trillion dollars annually to pay the debt service on
45:46
Speaker 1: our credit card bill, how in the hell are you
45:48
Speaker 1: going to implement all of these policies across this land
45:51
Speaker 1: of ours? How are you going to pay for it?
45:55
Speaker 7: Yeah?
45:55
Speaker 1: It doesn't work out, does it? When you bring economic
45:58
Speaker 1: reality in the equation six seventeen? Right now, Gary's on
46:01
Speaker 1: the phone. Hang on, buddy, I'll take your call. As
46:03
Speaker 1: soon as I mentioned USA insulation. It's free the talk station.
46:08
Speaker 1: It is six twenty one. If think about care, CD
46:10
Speaker 1: talk station. Very happy Monday to everyone. If you get
46:13
Speaker 1: a great father's jail, the dad's out there. I sure
46:15
Speaker 1: see is thanks to my family over to the phones.
46:17
Speaker 1: It's correct. I see what New Hampshire Gary's got this morning. Gary,
46:20
Speaker 1: welcome back to the show. It's always a pleasure hearing
46:21
Speaker 1: from you, sir.
46:23
Speaker 10: Hey, Brian, how are you doing. I'm doing pretty much good.
46:27
Speaker 10: I'm so glad. I really pray for you and Joe.
46:29
Speaker 10: If you guys are a raresh sunshine in a world
46:33
Speaker 10: of muck.
46:34
Speaker 1: Thanks man, I appreciate that. I wonder if I'm the
46:39
Speaker 1: insane one from time to time. Gary, you know, it's
46:42
Speaker 1: where are how come nobody else is screaming about this stuff?
46:46
Speaker 1: Why does it always seem to be me? But when
46:47
Speaker 1: I hear from folks like you, it makes me feel
46:49
Speaker 1: that much better. There's still hope for society.
46:52
Speaker 10: Well, I got to tell you I live up here
46:54
Speaker 10: in New Hampshire and one of the things that just
46:57
Speaker 10: it's maddening to see is most of our college educated,
47:02
Speaker 10: you know, employees. I'm a retired military guy, I done
47:05
Speaker 10: thirty four years. I took a job up here in
47:09
Speaker 10: New Hampshire working at a mixer plant. You know, just
47:13
Speaker 10: I didn't want to paint the barn for the fourteenth time.
47:17
Speaker 10: You know, I didn't want to lay around. I'm a worker,
47:20
Speaker 10: so I wanted to work. And I talked to the
47:24
Speaker 10: engineers at our plant. We have seven engineers. We're a
47:28
Speaker 10: small plant. We make industrial sized mixers and there's only
47:34
Speaker 10: seventy of us around. And every single one of our
47:38
Speaker 10: engineers who are highly educated and they're smart, smart people.
47:43
Speaker 10: They are all not Democrats, socialist democrats, and they can't
47:48
Speaker 10: wait to take over and get rid of the constitution.
47:52
Speaker 10: Most of them are in their late twenties, early thirties,
47:56
Speaker 10: not married, have a heavy college step. It's the number
48:00
Speaker 10: one thing that's drive them. And it seems to me
48:04
Speaker 10: that what they want if they've been indoctrinated at these
48:08
Speaker 10: Ivy League schools. You know, they went from really nice
48:11
Speaker 10: schools and I got nice with finger quotes and up
48:15
Speaker 10: in the air, you know. But it seems like they
48:20
Speaker 10: got a heavy debt load from the colleges and what
48:24
Speaker 10: they want and the only thing that really matters, and
48:26
Speaker 10: they don't care what gets in the way. They want
48:29
Speaker 10: this debt. They want the government to pay for their.
48:31
Speaker 1: Debt, right.
48:33
Speaker 10: And I see they've had everything handed to them and
48:36
Speaker 10: they've never really had to really work. I'm in my sixties,
48:41
Speaker 10: and I'm still working. You know, I'm in my upper
48:45
Speaker 10: sixties and still working, and I work hard. And most
48:49
Speaker 10: of the guys I talk to the guys down on
48:51
Speaker 10: the floor, you know, the blue collar guys, and you know,
48:54
Speaker 10: they couldn't even tell you who an AOC is, nor
48:58
Speaker 10: care do they really care, no less how to vote
49:01
Speaker 10: or what to vote. You know. But I noticed that
49:05
Speaker 10: the Democrat Socialists engineers are very politically active, and they
49:11
Speaker 10: donate a ton of money and time to putting these
49:16
Speaker 10: guys in office. And I don't think they're smart enough
49:19
Speaker 10: to understand, like the mundanis that the Islamic threat is
49:25
Speaker 10: part of the is one of the things that's part
49:28
Speaker 10: of the Democrat Socialists putting them in power in strong
49:32
Speaker 10: positions throughout the country. And you know, I don't think
49:36
Speaker 10: they really put two and two together that they will
49:39
Speaker 10: just destroy the constitution. And I've been around the world
49:43
Speaker 10: and what that's like, and I know what it's like
49:46
Speaker 10: to be without right at all, and they have no
49:50
Speaker 10: clue what they're really voting for.
49:53
Speaker 1: They remain with their heads in a dark, smelly place
49:57
Speaker 1: in the dark because they want something paid for by
50:00
Speaker 1: somebody else. Their college debt that's what they're looking for,
50:03
Speaker 1: something free, quote unquote free from government. And isn't that
50:06
Speaker 1: the case? Isn't that the I mean, that's the class
50:09
Speaker 1: warfare the Democrats have been waging since day one. It's
50:11
Speaker 1: the predicate for Marxism in and of itself. From each
50:13
Speaker 1: according to his ability, to each according to his need.
50:16
Speaker 1: That's fair. That's the utopian society we want. Yeah, but
50:19
Speaker 1: it's a recipe for economic disaster. And you know that's
50:22
Speaker 1: what kind of strikes me is odd about engineers. It's
50:25
Speaker 1: a real degree. It deals with the concrete mathematics. Two
50:29
Speaker 1: and two is always four. And I don't care what
50:31
Speaker 1: some Orwellian idiot seems to think. You would think someone
50:34
Speaker 1: with that capacity to understand, and having gotten through engineering school,
50:38
Speaker 1: which is not an easy chore, would be a little
50:40
Speaker 1: more savvy economically. And yet apparently their education was wanting
50:45
Speaker 1: for a basic class in economics. One oh one sad
50:50
Speaker 1: Thomas Soul's got a book about that, worldwide seller and
50:53
Speaker 1: multiple languages. Get a copy of it and hand it out
50:55
Speaker 1: to your leftist friends. Appreciate the call. Gary, hanging there, Bobby,
50:58
Speaker 1: you hang on, brother, got right here, and you talk station.
51:09
Speaker 1: It is six thirty and fifty five care CD talk Station.
51:13
Speaker 1: Very happy Monday too, you try to make it so anyway,
51:15
Speaker 1: and again of happy Father's Day, belated Happy Father's Day
51:18
Speaker 1: and all the dad's out there. I missed my dad,
51:20
Speaker 1: I know that, and I had a wonderful time thanks
51:22
Speaker 1: to my family. I hope you're able to say the
51:23
Speaker 1: same if you're a dad. Let's see what Bobby's got
51:25
Speaker 1: this morning. Bobby, thanks for calling. I don't know where
51:28
Speaker 1: were we on. You're over and under for the shootings
51:30
Speaker 1: over the weekend in downtown Cincinnati.
51:31
Speaker 11: Bobby, Well, brother, I want to thank you for holding
51:35
Speaker 11: that torture freedom high and bright. Every day. They only
51:38
Speaker 11: had thirty six shootings in Chicago.
51:40
Speaker 10: I saw that to catch up.
51:42
Speaker 1: I saw that every time I see the report, they
51:45
Speaker 1: always do a report from Chicago, because every single weekend
51:48
Speaker 1: it's just off the charts. Brightbart, I know reports on
51:51
Speaker 1: that all the time. I immediately think of you, and
51:53
Speaker 1: I see that. I think it was twenty seven as
51:55
Speaker 1: of Saturday, so I guess they had got a few
51:57
Speaker 1: more yesterday. Didn't hold him back, brother, No, no, of
52:02
Speaker 1: course not.
52:04
Speaker 11: Well, we appreciate you holding that torch of freedom. Hire
52:06
Speaker 11: and bright every day. It's hard to control the thugs
52:09
Speaker 11: and griffterland, but we're doing everything we can to try
52:14
Speaker 11: to report the.
52:15
Speaker 1: Facts, trying to report them. If people would just pay
52:17
Speaker 1: closer attention, they might learn something.
52:19
Speaker 11: Right, Bobby, that's exactly correct, my friend. They better learned
52:23
Speaker 11: to protect their family, that's what they better learned to do.
52:26
Speaker 1: Let me see, I'm looking to see if I have
52:27
Speaker 1: a twenty two to three spot to do in the
52:29
Speaker 1: morning show this morning.
52:30
Speaker 7: Bobby.
52:31
Speaker 1: Always think about you when I do those as well. Thanks, Bobby,
52:34
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Maybe we'll settle thanks to thank you. Kentucky
52:38
Speaker 1: State Police investigating after officers shot and killed a thirty
52:42
Speaker 1: seven year old guy in cress Few Hills happen on Friday.
52:45
Speaker 1: Troopers called by the Lakeside Park Crestview Hills Police Department
52:48
Speaker 1: to investigate. The shooting happened shortly after eleven pm on Friday.
52:52
Speaker 1: Officers of the Lakeside Park at Crestview Hills Police Department
52:56
Speaker 1: dispatched to a residence at University Circle to assist with
52:59
Speaker 1: a health and Family service investigation. When they got there,
53:03
Speaker 1: Daniel Ballinger, thirty seven, exited the residents and confronted the
53:06
Speaker 1: officers with a knife. Yeah, bad idea. During the encounter
53:12
Speaker 1: with Ballinger, officers fired their weapons, hitting him and fatally
53:15
Speaker 1: injuring them. Pronounced dead at the scene by the Kent
53:17
Speaker 1: County Corner's Office. No officers were injured during the incident.
53:20
Speaker 1: Thank god for that, troopers cy Kentucky State Police investigation
53:23
Speaker 1: is ongoing. There's always an investigation after an officer involved
53:27
Speaker 1: shooting over the phone. See what Ronda's got this morning, Rona,
53:30
Speaker 1: thanks for calling it a very happy Monday to you.
53:34
Speaker 5: Good morning, Brian, glad you're doing better. Just wanted to
53:38
Speaker 5: comment on the New Hampshire guy that called in engineers. Yeah, Gary,
53:45
Speaker 5: the moron engineers. Instead of putting all that money you know,
53:49
Speaker 5: into getting their Democrats in there, why don't they take
53:52
Speaker 5: that money and spend it on their educational.
53:55
Speaker 1: Built That thought went through my mind round him, but
53:58
Speaker 1: he was on a terrace. I let him go.
54:00
Speaker 4: Right.
54:00
Speaker 1: If they're donating to left wing candidates and spending all
54:04
Speaker 1: of their energy and their free time trying to get
54:07
Speaker 1: socialist candidates elected, how about a little energy toward paying
54:10
Speaker 1: off your student loan. That way, you don't have to
54:12
Speaker 1: elect socialists and bring the entire country down just because
54:15
Speaker 1: you don't want to pay the bill off that you incurred.
54:17
Speaker 1: Huh interesting, exactly interesting concept, Ronda.
54:23
Speaker 5: Well and just common sense. Thank you for all you do.
54:26
Speaker 1: Thank you Roda for sending a little bit more common
54:28
Speaker 1: sense on that, knocking it out of the park. If
54:30
Speaker 1: you think that, you know, that kind of comment would go,
54:32
Speaker 1: it out, would go without saying that. Not in the
54:34
Speaker 1: world where you find ourselves in work ethic. Maybe that's
54:37
Speaker 1: the missing link in our problems with our society these days.
54:40
Speaker 1: No one seems to have a work ethic. Work for
54:42
Speaker 1: the sake of work. I incurred a bill. Maybe I
54:45
Speaker 1: should pay it off. It's not someone else's responsibility. There's
54:48
Speaker 1: a thought, anyway. One more local story here. This one's
54:54
Speaker 1: tragic woman dead after she was hit twice by two
54:58
Speaker 1: different vehicles on I seventy five and Warren County High
55:01
Speaker 1: of State Highway Patrol said and released the collisions occurred
55:04
Speaker 1: about twenty minutes after five am on June twenty first,
55:07
Speaker 1: near mile marker thirty one in Monroe. Investigation preliminary one anyway,
55:12
Speaker 1: revealed a twenty twenty three Kenworth semi tractor trailer struck
55:15
Speaker 1: the pedestrian on the roadway, and then the pedestrian was
55:19
Speaker 1: struck a second time by a twenty thirteen forward fusion.
55:23
Speaker 1: The pedestrian, identified as seventy four year old Norman Jean
55:26
Speaker 1: Howard of Carlisle pronounced death is seen by ems that
55:30
Speaker 1: crash also remains under investigation. Lord almighty six thirty five
55:35
Speaker 1: right now at fifty five kr C dear s the
55:38
Speaker 1: talk station six fifty five kerr CD talk station Monday.
55:43
Speaker 1: Here from Christopher Smith Amen at seven to twenty. As
55:46
Speaker 1: is tradition, the Smith event before I jump in the
55:49
Speaker 1: phones Jay and Hanked one moment here. I guess they
55:53
Speaker 1: heard our conversation out there with Bobby about the number
55:56
Speaker 1: of homicides over the weekend. Maybe we're trying to keep
55:57
Speaker 1: up with Chicago. Not quite there yet, but we had
56:00
Speaker 1: one this morning. Breaking story from Fox nineteen homicide of
56:04
Speaker 1: investigation underway. Women's now dead North College Hill happened in
56:07
Speaker 1: a shooting this morning about one point thirty in the morning.
56:11
Speaker 1: Woman shot taking the UC Medical Center, where she died.
56:14
Speaker 1: According to the Coroner's office. North College Hill and Corean
56:16
Speaker 1: Township police apparently on the scene, along with several deputies
56:19
Speaker 1: from the Hamlin County Sheriff's Office. Fox nineteen crew spotted
56:22
Speaker 1: multiple law enforcement officials armed with rifles going into the house.
56:27
Speaker 1: One woman who claimed to live nearby talked to Fox
56:29
Speaker 1: nineteen said an officer told her that someone had been
56:33
Speaker 1: shot and needed to get that woman needed to get
56:34
Speaker 1: back inside. So still no more active or updated reports
56:38
Speaker 1: on that, But add one more to the list, going
56:41
Speaker 1: over to the phones order on which they're received. Jay,
56:43
Speaker 1: thanks for calling this morning. Happy Monday to you, Hey.
56:46
Speaker 3: Happy Monday, belated Father's Day.
56:48
Speaker 1: All right, thanks, thank you too, Thank you.
56:51
Speaker 12: Hey.
56:52
Speaker 3: Learn about these idiot engineers. I'm going to build on
56:55
Speaker 3: that topic. You know, it's it's this effort Ellison. You
57:01
Speaker 3: had them on the program a couple times over the
57:03
Speaker 3: past few years, and he wrote the book The Iron
57:06
Speaker 3: Triangle that talks about how the Democrat Party is wildly
57:10
Speaker 3: successful at putting the inner city black community back into chains,
57:17
Speaker 3: back onto a plantation, as he called it, which is
57:20
Speaker 3: living in the inner city getting just enough crumbs to
57:24
Speaker 3: get by, but you don't have to do much. And
57:28
Speaker 3: let us be your provider, right and give us your freedom,
57:31
Speaker 3: give us your dignity, and we'll take care of all
57:35
Speaker 3: the rest. And in last chapter his book, I believe
57:39
Speaker 3: was towards the last chapter, he said, if you suburban,
57:43
Speaker 3: rural white people and any other race think that this
57:47
Speaker 3: can't happen to you and that they're not coming after
57:49
Speaker 3: you, you're one hundred percent wrong.
57:51
Speaker 10: And here we are.
57:53
Speaker 3: That may have been maybe four years since you've had
57:55
Speaker 3: him on the Here here we are, four years later,
57:58
Speaker 3: and we've got a degree engineer. I get ready to
58:01
Speaker 3: take the same damn stupid deal and to give up
58:06
Speaker 3: all the earning potential that they have in front of them.
58:09
Speaker 3: I have an engineering degree, I have a professional engineering stamp.
58:13
Speaker 3: And for them, and it comes down to this, they
58:16
Speaker 3: just want the deal of someone else pay my bills.
58:20
Speaker 3: And what they don't know is the consequences to come
58:22
Speaker 3: with that deal. And they're severe, and you know, go
58:26
Speaker 3: go talk to a communist, anybody who's a communist a country.
58:30
Speaker 3: Go talk to what engineer over in China. See how
58:32
Speaker 3: they're doing when the government controls everything. So this is
58:37
Speaker 3: this goes back to, you know, personal accountability and the
58:40
Speaker 3: entitlement of the millennials when you signed up to take
58:43
Speaker 3: that loan, and you want to know who ought to
58:46
Speaker 3: pay it? Look at the bottom and says who signed
58:48
Speaker 3: for this, who promised to pay it back? So don't
58:52
Speaker 3: vote Rhino, don't vote Democrat.
58:54
Speaker 10: And boy, we got our work out.
58:55
Speaker 1: That for us, don't we Yes, we do it without question.
58:58
Speaker 1: And notably, if I pivot over to China and you think, well,
59:01
Speaker 1: you got a lot of engineers, they're working for China,
59:03
Speaker 1: and then we'd do much better in a capitalist country
59:05
Speaker 1: like the United States. There's maybe not a work ethic
59:09
Speaker 1: in China. But what you have is the ever looming
59:12
Speaker 1: threat of the Chinese Communist Party. And if you do
59:15
Speaker 1: not bend to their will, in other words, work to
59:19
Speaker 1: your ability to serve the Chinese Communist Party, there will
59:22
Speaker 1: be problems you will be facing. You may have yourself
59:25
Speaker 1: disappeared or whatever word they're using. You might find yourself
59:28
Speaker 1: without employment period, end of story. So the incentive there
59:31
Speaker 1: to work is the threat from the Chinese Communist Party.
59:34
Speaker 1: Is there any corollary threat here to not working in
59:37
Speaker 1: the United States? Not yet, although the whole idea of
59:40
Speaker 1: universal basic income which the Democratic Socialists are offering talking
59:44
Speaker 1: about keeping people, you know, starving on the plantation. Yeah,
59:48
Speaker 1: the threat to you is that you're taking your UBI
59:52
Speaker 1: or your other government subsidies and not participating subject to Yeah,
59:57
Speaker 1: the plug being pulled on that. Why because well, the
1:00:00
Speaker 1: debt service on our national debt being used to fund
1:00:03
Speaker 1: programs like that, ever growing they are, is unsustainable. You
1:00:09
Speaker 1: have a constant threat of having your lifeline. So you've
1:00:12
Speaker 1: been dumbed down by the public education system. You can't
1:00:15
Speaker 1: think freely. You apparently can't go out and get a job.
1:00:18
Speaker 1: Even if you went to college, you have to take
1:00:20
Speaker 1: remedial courses to make it up to college level material.
1:00:24
Speaker 1: So you graduate with your degree in art or something
1:00:27
Speaker 1: and you can't find a job. Then you're left desperate.
1:00:31
Speaker 1: You have nowhere to turn to. But oh my, there's
1:00:34
Speaker 1: the government promising you free stuff and things. We're here
1:00:37
Speaker 1: to feed you, we're here to clothe here, we're here
1:00:40
Speaker 1: to provide shelter for you. Yeah, to the extent they
1:00:43
Speaker 1: decide to give you some a paltry amount. But in
1:00:47
Speaker 1: the final analysis, what are you addicted to, what are
1:00:49
Speaker 1: you stuck with? What are you dependent on? What offers
1:00:53
Speaker 1: you no alternative solution? Socialism And once it gets ingrained
1:00:58
Speaker 1: in society, there is no alternative. Because if you're out
1:01:00
Speaker 1: there trying to be successful trying to apply your intellect
1:01:05
Speaker 1: and wisdom bringing goods or services to a country that
1:01:08
Speaker 1: might demand those goods or services. There's no incentive to
1:01:11
Speaker 1: go down that road because they're just going to be
1:01:13
Speaker 1: there to take it all away from you. That's just
1:01:15
Speaker 1: that recipe for economic disaster. That's the folks in Columbia
1:01:19
Speaker 1: why they voted for a conservative rather than a socialist yesterday.
1:01:23
Speaker 1: Hank is on the line. Hank, I'm happy to take
1:01:25
Speaker 1: your call. Just looked up and really your seat the
1:01:27
Speaker 1: talk station at six fifty to fifty five cars Decox station,
1:01:32
Speaker 1: Happy Monday, going to go straight to the phones. Hank
1:01:34
Speaker 1: was kind enough to hold over the break there in
1:01:36
Speaker 1: the prior segment. Hank, thanks for holding Welcome to the
1:01:38
Speaker 1: morning Show.
1:01:40
Speaker 10: Well, thank you, Brian.
1:01:41
Speaker 13: I just wanted to make some quick comments. I don't
1:01:44
Speaker 13: consider myself we're real smart, but I can spot obvious things.
1:01:49
Speaker 13: And one of the things I've seem to notice about
1:01:51
Speaker 13: a lot of these people coming out of college is
1:01:54
Speaker 13: that it's not so much that they're smart. They just
1:01:56
Speaker 13: have good memories. You can spout a bunch of stuff
1:02:00
Speaker 13: to them and they'll spout.
1:02:00
Speaker 10: It right back to you.
1:02:02
Speaker 13: The other thing is a lot of it seems to
1:02:04
Speaker 13: be in doctrination and maybe even a form of mental illness,
1:02:09
Speaker 13: like you were saying about how they want their bills
1:02:12
Speaker 13: paid well. The other thing is it's blame shifting. They
1:02:16
Speaker 13: always want to blame somebody else when things when they
1:02:20
Speaker 13: don't get what they want. It's never because either maybe
1:02:24
Speaker 13: they weren't smart enough, or maybe they didn't work hard
1:02:27
Speaker 13: enough or whatever, but they always find somebody else to
1:02:30
Speaker 13: blame on it, and I just have to wonder. It's
1:02:35
Speaker 13: kind of like I used to joke about some of
1:02:37
Speaker 13: the engineers I've worked with. We used to joke that
1:02:40
Speaker 13: there's three kinds of engineers, those that can do simple
1:02:43
Speaker 13: math and those that can't. So anyway, I just wanted
1:02:48
Speaker 13: to put in the two cents. Mostly, like I said,
1:02:51
Speaker 13: it seems to be a problem now where colleges are
1:02:53
Speaker 13: turning out people that have memory but no conscience in
1:02:58
Speaker 13: no logic.
1:03:00
Speaker 1: Memorization and regurgitation is not a hallmark of critical thinking.
1:03:05
Speaker 1: I mean, you can memorize all the quotes in the world,
1:03:07
Speaker 1: but if you can't put them in a context, or
1:03:08
Speaker 1: break them down and analyze them within the broader context
1:03:11
Speaker 1: of human reality, then you don't have an education. You're
1:03:16
Speaker 1: just well repeating. That's one of the problems we have
1:03:18
Speaker 1: with standardized testing, you know, teaching to the test. That's
1:03:21
Speaker 1: just basically teaching children what the answers are without providing
1:03:25
Speaker 1: a foundation for critical analysis. One of the failures of
1:03:28
Speaker 1: the education system. I appreciate bringing that up, and that's
1:03:30
Speaker 1: kind of comical you bring that up. There was a
1:03:32
Speaker 1: study Forty seven percent of seniors surveyed this is at
1:03:40
Speaker 1: Harvard indicate they have experienced mental illness at some point.
1:03:47
Speaker 1: Thirteen percent of the seniors at Harvard were not sure. This,
1:03:50
Speaker 1: according to a survey of the class of twenty twenty
1:03:52
Speaker 1: six conducted by Harvard Crimson the student newspaper, more than
1:03:56
Speaker 1: double the rate of the general US population. National instit
1:04:00
Speaker 1: Mental Health estimates at twenty three point one percent of
1:04:02
Speaker 1: the US population is dealing with some form of mental health.
1:04:05
Speaker 1: You're dealing with almost fifty percent of all the students
1:04:09
Speaker 1: in the senior class at hearts at Harvard, not just
1:04:11
Speaker 1: Harvard Princeton. A senior survey conducted by The Princetonian found
1:04:17
Speaker 1: that sixty point one percent had mental health counseling or
1:04:21
Speaker 1: therapy during college. Thirty six point three getting help from
1:04:26
Speaker 1: the universities counseling and psychological services twenty three point eight,
1:04:30
Speaker 1: finding outside assistance also way higher than the overall population.
1:04:36
Speaker 1: Yale similarly dealing with mental health issues in large numbers.
1:04:41
Speaker 1: So in analyzing this, they say, it's not clear how
1:04:43
Speaker 1: much of the increase in these mental health problems and
1:04:46
Speaker 1: is actual real mental health, or how much is it
1:04:49
Speaker 1: that they the young people are identifying as mentally ill.
1:04:55
Speaker 1: Are today's students really more depressed, anxious, or panic than
1:04:58
Speaker 1: previous generations, or are they and the grown ups around
1:05:01
Speaker 1: them simply more likely to diagnose and label their maladies
1:05:04
Speaker 1: as mental illness. Maybe you can throw that in the
1:05:07
Speaker 1: category of gee, I don't feel like a guy. I
1:05:09
Speaker 1: guess I'm going to be a woman from this point forward.
1:05:12
Speaker 1: Check no problem there, and we can get this funny
1:05:17
Speaker 1: one in real Let's just stick on this one. Since
1:05:20
Speaker 1: we're dealing with mental health. Let us talk to doctor
1:05:22
Speaker 1: FRIEDA Fisher or hear what FRIEDA. Fisher, described as a
1:05:25
Speaker 1: quadruple bored certified nephrologist did some consulting on Fox News.
1:05:32
Speaker 1: She was on Joy Reid's show I know no one
1:05:35
Speaker 1: watched it, talking about medical threats facing black women, only
1:05:41
Speaker 1: black women, I sput, I felt my heart having palpitations.
1:05:45
Speaker 1: I felt my chest titan. I felt personally humiliated as
1:05:48
Speaker 1: a black woman, as first Lady, Michelle Obama is that
1:05:52
Speaker 1: in response to the comment from the UFC fighter Josh Hokit,
1:05:56
Speaker 1: who said, and lastly, Michelle Obama is a man am America. Okay,
1:06:01
Speaker 1: he's entitled to say that if you want, you can
1:06:03
Speaker 1: find whom we're humor in it or not, as the
1:06:04
Speaker 1: case may be. Is that going to cause you heart palpitations? Well,
1:06:08
Speaker 1: she goes beyond that, medical implications of derogatory comments made
1:06:14
Speaker 1: towards black women her subject matter. She said, it took
1:06:18
Speaker 1: me immediately joy to the data that we have. We
1:06:21
Speaker 1: literally have data that systemic racism, chronic discrimination, and also
1:06:25
Speaker 1: public humiliation. We have data that these things increase cardiovascular
1:06:29
Speaker 1: negative outcomes. And as I sat there experiencing those emotions,
1:06:33
Speaker 1: I know I'm not alone. I realized this is what happens.
1:06:37
Speaker 1: This is why so many black people and black women
1:06:39
Speaker 1: specifically have poorer cardiovascular outcomes when compared with other ethnic groups.
1:06:44
Speaker 1: This is why so many of us have increased strokes.
1:06:46
Speaker 1: It's actually real, so systemic racism is the reason that
1:06:52
Speaker 1: black women experience well problems with death or with or
1:06:57
Speaker 1: with heart. Heart disease the primary cause of death and
1:07:00
Speaker 1: black women. According in the United States, nearly sixty percent
1:07:03
Speaker 1: of Black women over twenty have some form of heart disease.
1:07:06
Speaker 1: American Heart Association data causes vary, they say, at least
1:07:10
Speaker 1: the American Heart Association does high blood pressure, obesity, nutritional deficiencies.
1:07:17
Speaker 1: The American Heart Association isn't throwing in systemic racism as
1:07:21
Speaker 1: the approximate cause of all of the issues that plague
1:07:24
Speaker 1: Black America. I don't know if Michelle Obama's got heart problems.
1:07:29
Speaker 1: Don't even know how she reacted to the comments from
1:07:31
Speaker 1: that guy. Anyway, more to talk about up top of
1:07:33
Speaker 1: the other news, plus Christopher Smitheman coming up with a
1:07:35
Speaker 1: Smith Van at seven to twenty. I hope you can
1:07:37
Speaker 1: stick around.
1:07:38
Speaker 2: At the top of the hour. Here the top stories
1:07:41
Speaker 2: of the day, big matter. It's seven oh six, I
1:07:58
Speaker 2: thinky five KR see the talk.
1:08:00
Speaker 1: By the time it's here and glad to beat Joe
1:08:02
Speaker 1: Strecker's where he belongs in the executive producer Brute and
1:08:05
Speaker 1: again Very Happy Father's Day played as it is by
1:08:08
Speaker 1: one day at all. The Dad's out there and thanks again
1:08:10
Speaker 1: to my family for a wonderful Father's Day weekend. Hope
1:08:13
Speaker 1: you had one uh five three, seven, four nine fifty
1:08:15
Speaker 1: five hundred, eight hundred and eight two to three talk
1:08:17
Speaker 1: pound five fifty on AT and T phones. That's how
1:08:19
Speaker 1: you reach me. You got a comment? Got Christopher Smith
1:08:22
Speaker 1: Amen coming up in the next segment. We deal with
1:08:23
Speaker 1: Christopher every week for the Smith event, and I have
1:08:26
Speaker 1: a feeling he may mention crime. I don't know, though
1:08:28
Speaker 1: he certainly will mention the petition to get the since
1:08:31
Speaker 1: a council members active and involved with hiring and firing
1:08:35
Speaker 1: of the police and fire chiefs to try to keep
1:08:37
Speaker 1: the residence of the City of Cincinnati from having to
1:08:39
Speaker 1: bear the responsibility of paying off wrongful termination lawsuits. Yeah,
1:08:44
Speaker 1: there's a reason anyway, Money money With Brian James one
1:08:46
Speaker 1: hour from now, we'll talk about the FED chairs first meeting,
1:08:49
Speaker 1: oil declining after the latest Iranian talks. I don't know
1:08:53
Speaker 1: how long that's going to last. You seem to be
1:08:54
Speaker 1: on again off again with the Iranians. Are women better
1:08:57
Speaker 1: savers than men? And finally, why are young investors ditching
1:09:00
Speaker 1: this dock market. That'll be one hour from now with
1:09:03
Speaker 1: Brian James. So on again, off again. Joe is the
1:09:06
Speaker 1: straight up horror moves open or closed again this moment
1:09:08
Speaker 1: in time. Flip a coin. Yeah, that's pretty accurate. So
1:09:13
Speaker 1: last week JD Man's and Donald Trump both kind of
1:09:17
Speaker 1: complaining and complaining. Well, they're frustrated with Israel's response to
1:09:22
Speaker 1: his Bala's killing for Israeli soldiers, so his Bala launches
1:09:26
Speaker 1: missiles into Israel. Israel, of course responds, this is what
1:09:29
Speaker 1: they do, independent country. And very important to note, not
1:09:33
Speaker 1: a signatory on the Memorandum of understanding. You got two
1:09:36
Speaker 1: parties to that one. It's the United States in Iran.
1:09:41
Speaker 1: Let's just keep that clear. Making fun of that reality.
1:09:44
Speaker 1: Last week when they kept putting Lebanon in the Memorandum
1:09:47
Speaker 1: of understanding, Wait a second, who's fighting visa elimited, Well,
1:09:53
Speaker 1: they'll be Israel and Hesbala, the terrorist organization which basically
1:09:56
Speaker 1: is running Lebanon. So neither side is a party. So
1:10:02
Speaker 1: this morning, Cutter and Pakistan the mediators said that, well,
1:10:06
Speaker 1: we've made some progress. We've established a line of communication
1:10:08
Speaker 1: between the Iranians and the United States to avoid incidents.
1:10:12
Speaker 1: I think that's a reference to the Isabella Israel thing
1:10:15
Speaker 1: and enables safe passage of commercial vehicles through the strait
1:10:17
Speaker 1: of horror moves. But the ultimate point is they were
1:10:20
Speaker 1: supposed to be negotiating the broader principles of the Memorandum Understanding,
1:10:23
Speaker 1: including of course the disposition of the Iranian nuclear material,
1:10:28
Speaker 1: that got sidetracked over the weekend when this whole Israeli
1:10:31
Speaker 1: thing came about. So now at least they Trump Advans
1:10:36
Speaker 1: have pivoted away from blaming Israel and now start talking
1:10:39
Speaker 1: about the Iranians. And Trump came out with a statement
1:10:42
Speaker 1: Sunday yesterday, Iran must immediately stop their highly paid proxies
1:10:46
Speaker 1: in Lebanon i e. Hasbala from causing trouble. If they don't,
1:10:50
Speaker 1: we'll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did
1:10:53
Speaker 1: last week, only harder. So we're going to take it
1:10:57
Speaker 1: upon us to hit on over what Israel and eleven
1:11:04
Speaker 1: and a half goal. I'm trying to make some sense
1:11:05
Speaker 1: out of all this anyway, And of course Iron comes
1:11:08
Speaker 1: back with says, well, wait a second, those statements alone
1:11:11
Speaker 1: violate the terms of the Memoranum of Understanding, which says
1:11:13
Speaker 1: we can't attack each other or threaten each other, back
1:11:17
Speaker 1: and forth, back and forth. And as to the to
1:11:20
Speaker 1: Trump advance blaming the Israelis, which again they seem to
1:11:23
Speaker 1: have pivoted away from directly blaming the Israelis for the
1:11:26
Speaker 1: for the straight of horm moose shutting down, ready to
1:11:29
Speaker 1: climb in and bet Nitt and yahu'saving what the hell
1:11:32
Speaker 1: is he talking about? Anyway? So Iran declared on Saturday
1:11:35
Speaker 1: it had closed the Straight of Horn moves again, this
1:11:37
Speaker 1: again after the Israeli operation. Iran's military command said it
1:11:41
Speaker 1: closed the straight blaming the United States for a clear
1:11:44
Speaker 1: breach of the Memorando of Understanding. Now, Trump was quick
1:11:50
Speaker 1: to point out that there are some ships moving through,
1:11:52
Speaker 1: although everyone can agree that not to the level of
1:11:55
Speaker 1: the pre warship traffic. Now. Teyron claims the United States
1:12:00
Speaker 1: is obliged to stop Israel from bombing Hezbala. Meanwhile, Hisbeala
1:12:06
Speaker 1: is killing Israeli soldiers and firing rockets at civilians in
1:12:09
Speaker 1: northern Israel. Iran insisting the Memoran of Understanding requires that
1:12:16
Speaker 1: Trump treat Israel like an American proxy, though Israel is
1:12:20
Speaker 1: a sovereign nation with a duty to its citizens to
1:12:22
Speaker 1: stop form bombardment. I mean the Iranian position on that
1:12:26
Speaker 1: I think is ludicrous. The Israelis weren't at the table.
1:12:32
Speaker 1: Now grant you that it was a joint operation. We
1:12:34
Speaker 1: started bombing the crap out of the Iranians. It was
1:12:36
Speaker 1: the United States and Israel, but Israel in the United
1:12:39
Speaker 1: States the only signatories to the memorandum of understanding. And
1:12:42
Speaker 1: how does one deal with the reality of Israel being
1:12:44
Speaker 1: its own independent nation? I mean, would you just allow
1:12:47
Speaker 1: Hasbala to randomly rained rockets down upon your population if
1:12:51
Speaker 1: you were the president of Israel. I can't imagine anyone
1:12:54
Speaker 1: embracing that as a concept. Anyhow, Within hours of Vance's
1:13:08
Speaker 1: message going after the Israelis, which he did, has Bala
1:13:14
Speaker 1: killed for Israeli troops, guaranteeing a retaliation. Teyran then took
1:13:19
Speaker 1: it as a pretext to postpone talks and threatened the
1:13:21
Speaker 1: Straight Which think about this, folks, assuming we negotiated some
1:13:26
Speaker 1: acceptable terms under this memorandum of understanding, you know, they
1:13:29
Speaker 1: get their profits and their their frozen funds released, the
1:13:32
Speaker 1: Straight Horror moves opens back up, economic activity returns. Is
1:13:37
Speaker 1: this going to stop his balla from launching rockets into
1:13:40
Speaker 1: Israel down the road. And if the Iranians can use
1:13:44
Speaker 1: Israel's independent, unilateral, sovereign nation action of defending itself as
1:13:49
Speaker 1: a pretext to cut the straight of Horne moves back
1:13:52
Speaker 1: off again, what's going to stop him from doing it
1:13:54
Speaker 1: down the road? I mean, does anybody think there's going
1:13:57
Speaker 1: to be peace in the Middle East? That the terrorist
1:14:00
Speaker 1: organizations who are hell bent on destroying Israel completely and utterly,
1:14:04
Speaker 1: which is the goal of the Iranians as well, right,
1:14:07
Speaker 1: is that going to stop? So anytime Israel gets a
1:14:14
Speaker 1: rocket rained down on it and it decides it's going
1:14:15
Speaker 1: to defend itself, maybe just go and blow up the
1:14:17
Speaker 1: rocket launcher that was the cause of the rocket being fired.
1:14:21
Speaker 1: That's going to result in the straight being shut down.
1:14:23
Speaker 1: This is a new world order in the Strait of Hormuz?
1:14:25
Speaker 1: Is I mean? The Iranians clearly have the upper hand
1:14:28
Speaker 1: from a military standpoint to close that straight. I don't
1:14:31
Speaker 1: mean upper hand standpoint is if their military is bigger
1:14:34
Speaker 1: or better than ours. But those pesky little drones and
1:14:37
Speaker 1: those pesky little mosquito boats and those pesky little minds
1:14:40
Speaker 1: obviously give it a tremendous amount of weight and all
1:14:45
Speaker 1: the bombing in the world, assuming we had the munitions
1:14:48
Speaker 1: to do it. And I've seen more and more reports
1:14:50
Speaker 1: on this, the Iran war bleeding, the Pentagon dry headline
1:14:55
Speaker 1: from the Daily Caller, of course, backed by information which
1:14:59
Speaker 1: shows that we deplete our missile supply down to tremendously
1:15:02
Speaker 1: low levels. Me the desire to continue to bomb the Iranians.
1:15:08
Speaker 1: The desire, and this is like, if you look at
1:15:10
Speaker 1: the surveys on ay, oh, nobody wants to be in
1:15:12
Speaker 1: this war. The American population would rather not be in there.
1:15:14
Speaker 1: But if you ask people the alternative, stick it out,
1:15:17
Speaker 1: bomb the Iranians more. If you don't have the ability
1:15:20
Speaker 1: to do that, is that even an option. And I
1:15:23
Speaker 1: know Donald Trump is recently as late last week was
1:15:25
Speaker 1: threatening to do just that and of course doubling down
1:15:28
Speaker 1: on it back again over the weekend. You know, you're
1:15:30
Speaker 1: not going to even get blanking home from the negotiations
1:15:33
Speaker 1: if you don't play well and open up the strait,
1:15:35
Speaker 1: et cetera. So you got to have the ability to
1:15:38
Speaker 1: follow through. And I think the one reality that we've
1:15:42
Speaker 1: all learned as a consequence of our being there in
1:15:44
Speaker 1: the strait of horror moves being shut down, and I
1:15:45
Speaker 1: keep saying that no one can disagree with me because
1:15:48
Speaker 1: I think it's the god honest truth. If we could
1:15:50
Speaker 1: open it up on our own, we would have done
1:15:53
Speaker 1: it already. Going back to the pesky drone, the mosquito
1:15:57
Speaker 1: boats and the mines, you can put a lot of
1:16:00
Speaker 1: those out in the world. You can manufacture a lot
1:16:02
Speaker 1: of them in a small finite amount of space spread
1:16:04
Speaker 1: out over a country that's two point four times the
1:16:06
Speaker 1: size of Texas, and you're never going to be able
1:16:09
Speaker 1: to get on top of that from a bombing perspective.
1:16:12
Speaker 1: Not quite sure where we are, but if you know
1:16:16
Speaker 1: if the straits open or closed, right, and can just
1:16:18
Speaker 1: let me know about that, because it seems to be
1:16:20
Speaker 1: a swirling question mark on again, off again. Christopher Smitherman
1:16:24
Speaker 1: up next, getting us over to local stuff, and I'm
1:16:26
Speaker 1: glad we're going to be able to do that with
1:16:28
Speaker 1: the smither Vent first ord for the great folks at
1:16:30
Speaker 1: Bud Herbert Motors. They're proud of where they are and
1:16:33
Speaker 1: what they do, and that's provide you deep talk station.
1:16:39
Speaker 1: It's just shy seven twenty at fifty five KRCD talk station.
1:16:43
Speaker 1: It's that time of week. We are blessed to have
1:16:45
Speaker 1: the former vice mayor of the City of Cincinna joined
1:16:47
Speaker 1: the fifty five KRC Morning show and vent his plane.
1:16:50
Speaker 1: It's time for the Christopher Smither Vent. Welcome back, Christopher.
1:16:52
Speaker 1: I hope you had a wonderful Father's Day, Brian.
1:16:57
Speaker 12: It was relaxing and peaceful. That's kind of been been
1:17:01
Speaker 12: my tradition in my family. I just get a day
1:17:05
Speaker 12: off of peace, and that's been going on for probably
1:17:08
Speaker 12: twenty five years. But happy Father's Day to you. I
1:17:13
Speaker 12: heard your tribute to your dad. I feel the same
1:17:16
Speaker 12: way about my dad. Had a wonderful father who worked
1:17:20
Speaker 12: incredibly hard and cared about his six children and his wife.
1:17:25
Speaker 12: And I'll just say this note about him. My father
1:17:28
Speaker 12: was an only child from Birmingham, Alabama, and every elder
1:17:35
Speaker 12: and that is not an exaggeration. His mother, my mother's mother,
1:17:40
Speaker 12: even my grandfather's second wife, every time they got sick,
1:17:46
Speaker 12: my father and mother brought them to Cincinnati and lived
1:17:49
Speaker 12: in our home. So we always had four or five
1:17:53
Speaker 12: elders living in our home at the same time, and
1:17:58
Speaker 12: that included a first and second wife, and so my grandmother, Mozille,
1:18:04
Speaker 12: who was my grandfather's first wife took care of his
1:18:09
Speaker 12: my grandfather. This is on my mother's side, my my
1:18:12
Speaker 12: mother's father's second wife, and they cooperated in the house together.
1:18:16
Speaker 12: And it just really told me the kind of man
1:18:19
Speaker 12: that my father was a person about family integrity and
1:18:26
Speaker 12: just cared very deeply for my mother. Meaning every every
1:18:30
Speaker 12: husband wouldn't wouldn't sacrifice himself like that. So I think
1:18:35
Speaker 12: about my dad and all the things that that he
1:18:37
Speaker 12: did to make things good for us. And so I
1:18:41
Speaker 12: listened to your tribute to to your father. And and
1:18:43
Speaker 12: by the way, even the even the postman, uh ups
1:18:48
Speaker 12: drivers and even the FedEx people could not believe that
1:18:51
Speaker 12: a wife and an ex wife were both living up
1:18:54
Speaker 12: to say. They thought that was pretty wild, dude.
1:19:00
Speaker 1: It doesn't happen in every family, that's for sure. But
1:19:02
Speaker 1: I suppose it had to be good for your education,
1:19:04
Speaker 1: your own you know, childhood education. To have that many
1:19:06
Speaker 1: generations living around you and sharing their life experiences with you.
1:19:11
Speaker 12: Oh, absolutely, And you couldn't get away with anything, right
1:19:15
Speaker 12: because there was always somebody home, always somebody home. You know,
1:19:20
Speaker 12: that's true, you know, but but and that you know,
1:19:22
Speaker 12: it really pivots into and I know we don't have
1:19:24
Speaker 12: a lot in this segment to talk about just a
1:19:27
Speaker 12: bloody weekend that we had in our city. And I
1:19:32
Speaker 12: talked about this last week, meaning the weather warming up
1:19:35
Speaker 12: most likely, you know, we were going to have a
1:19:37
Speaker 12: tough weekend. But we're talking a triple homicide in one location,
1:19:42
Speaker 12: a fourth homicide and a different location, a double shooting
1:19:45
Speaker 12: that wasn't fatal in another location, disorderly crowds in Bramble
1:19:50
Speaker 12: Park and Fairview Park, and this was all over Juneteenth
1:19:55
Speaker 12: weekend and Father's Day weekend, and then to layer on
1:19:59
Speaker 12: top of it. And I want to hold in on this,
1:20:01
Speaker 12: and I'm gonna do it in two segments, but I
1:20:04
Speaker 12: want to really thank Signal ninety nine, and I know
1:20:07
Speaker 12: you have her on your show from time to time,
1:20:10
Speaker 12: but she put a post up saying something was going
1:20:13
Speaker 12: down on Friday in downtown, and just because the mainstream
1:20:17
Speaker 12: media wasn't reporting it, just like here on this show,
1:20:22
Speaker 12: doesn't mean it wasn't happening. Meaning there were you downtown
1:20:27
Speaker 12: on the banks, there were youth downtown moving up into
1:20:32
Speaker 12: Fountain Square and on Government Square, and they were causing
1:20:35
Speaker 12: a problem in downtown. And so just because mainstream media
1:20:40
Speaker 12: blacked it out and basically where they were acting like
1:20:43
Speaker 12: these things weren't happening. And I'm not going to say
1:20:46
Speaker 12: I understand why the concept is the business is down
1:20:50
Speaker 12: there are suffering, and so you know they don't want
1:20:54
Speaker 12: these things reported. But there was a clearly a coordinated
1:20:57
Speaker 12: effort about something that was happening in our downtown with
1:21:02
Speaker 12: youth that made it uncomfortable for the other visitors that
1:21:06
Speaker 12: were there. That is at least a fair statement. Now,
1:21:09
Speaker 12: there are other things that I heard went down. I
1:21:11
Speaker 12: heard backup had to be called in to deal with it.
1:21:14
Speaker 12: But to call Signal ninety nine are racist meeting people
1:21:18
Speaker 12: are on her pace saying she's racist, which I'm going
1:21:22
Speaker 12: to deal with in the next segment. Well, you've got
1:21:24
Speaker 12: to be out of your mind if she is just
1:21:27
Speaker 12: providing factual information to the public so you and I
1:21:32
Speaker 12: can make decisions about our life and our safety. Call
1:21:36
Speaker 12: that burn my behind.
1:21:37
Speaker 1: This weekend, Christopher, I have to ask a specific question.
1:21:40
Speaker 1: We can address it and dive in and further, because
1:21:42
Speaker 1: I ain you're not done with this topic. But as
1:21:43
Speaker 1: we move into break, did she at any time in
1:21:46
Speaker 1: mentioning the thirty or forty juveniles that were attacking people
1:21:49
Speaker 1: and starting fires and fighting and destroying property, which is
1:21:52
Speaker 1: widely reported on the computer aided dispatch records, which she
1:21:56
Speaker 1: has to support her facts. Does she ever mention the
1:22:00
Speaker 1: race of the children and the young people that are
1:22:02
Speaker 1: running amok? Not one time that Helen, the hell can
1:22:05
Speaker 1: it be racist? All right, we'll bring Christopher back. I
1:22:07
Speaker 1: kind of figured that anyhow. First Gate of Heaven Catholic
1:22:11
Speaker 1: Cemetery serving the Greater Sin Saint Christian Community for carc
1:22:14
Speaker 1: De talk station Happy Monday, Bryan Thomas here with Christopher
1:22:17
Speaker 1: smith En doing the smith Man And as she pointed out,
1:22:19
Speaker 1: you gave PROPS a signal ninety nine. Just because it
1:22:21
Speaker 1: isn't reported in local media, it doesn't mean it's not happening.
1:22:24
Speaker 1: And she did do some reporting about the CAD records,
1:22:28
Speaker 1: the computer aided dispatch records, which reflected multiple officers, including
1:22:32
Speaker 1: the swat team and everybody else was called out, Uh,
1:22:36
Speaker 1: what it is about late eight pm? On Was it
1:22:38
Speaker 1: Monday night? Christopher? Was it mon? Yeah? It was the nineteenth,
1:22:41
Speaker 1: It was juneteenth, the swat team among others.
1:22:44
Speaker 14: This was I think this was Friday night. Yeah, that
1:22:47
Speaker 14: this incident, that this incident happened. But I was amazed
1:22:52
Speaker 14: by people who are brainwashed and you just you put
1:22:56
Speaker 14: the nail right right in the in the wood here
1:23:00
Speaker 14: when you said it wasn't reported in mainstream media, therefore
1:23:06
Speaker 14: it didn't happen. They are the ones that are actually brainwashed,
1:23:10
Speaker 14: meaning just because Signal ninety nine is sharing something that
1:23:13
Speaker 14: the mainstream media is refusing.
1:23:16
Speaker 12: To share it. By the way, what is my speculation
1:23:20
Speaker 12: of the reason it's not the mayor's narrative? The mayor
1:23:23
Speaker 12: doesn't want that. He's making calls to newsrooms. His people
1:23:27
Speaker 12: are making calls into newsrooms and they're saying, listen, our
1:23:31
Speaker 12: businesses are suffering. Okay, let's kind of let this one go.
1:23:36
Speaker 12: But the reality of there are people that are listening
1:23:38
Speaker 12: to scanners like Signal ninety nine and they're like, wow,
1:23:42
Speaker 12: there's backup being called into towntown. What in the world
1:23:45
Speaker 12: is going on? So there was enough going on to
1:23:48
Speaker 12: your listening audience that the police department called out for help.
1:23:53
Speaker 12: Why didn't it nine twelve, five, nineteen. Why didn't any
1:23:58
Speaker 12: of these stations cover any of it? Right? Why was
1:24:00
Speaker 12: there a blackout? That doesn't make signal ninety nine wrong.
1:24:05
Speaker 12: It doesn't make Signal.
1:24:07
Speaker 14: Ninety nine racist and I absolutely appreciated that she was
1:24:11
Speaker 14: sharing what was going on in our city. What's said
1:24:15
Speaker 14: about it is I've got to go to an x
1:24:17
Speaker 14: account to figure out what's going on in the city. People,
1:24:21
Speaker 14: if you're.
1:24:21
Speaker 12: Not following her on social media, the way you protest
1:24:27
Speaker 12: what just happened on Friday night is go and give
1:24:30
Speaker 12: her a follow so you can actually figure out. When
1:24:33
Speaker 12: mainstream media is unwilling to tell you what's happening in
1:24:36
Speaker 12: our city. At least there's some platform that will I
1:24:39
Speaker 12: certainly didn't know it was going on, but the reality
1:24:43
Speaker 12: of it was Brian. As I end this part of
1:24:45
Speaker 12: this segment, something happened in downtown on Friday, and I
1:24:49
Speaker 12: think we're gonna hear more about it. Meanie, this isn't
1:24:53
Speaker 12: over because the way this is city Hall. By the way,
1:24:57
Speaker 12: city Hall is attempting to discredit Signal ninety nine. They
1:25:01
Speaker 12: don't like platforms like this that come out that are
1:25:04
Speaker 12: against the mayor's narrative. So now their goal is call
1:25:08
Speaker 12: her a racist, tell her that she's putting out false information,
1:25:11
Speaker 12: that she's wrong, so that other people don't follow and
1:25:14
Speaker 12: they discredit her. Shame on all of.
1:25:16
Speaker 1: Them, and that has become the story, not that there were.
1:25:20
Speaker 1: In fact, thirty to forty Junii Junin I was running
1:25:22
Speaker 1: around attacking people, starting fires, fighting and destroying property downtown,
1:25:25
Speaker 1: as Signal ninety nine reports from the computer aided dispatch records,
1:25:29
Speaker 1: which we're coming in telling police they need to get
1:25:30
Speaker 1: their butts over to this area and get rid of
1:25:32
Speaker 1: these kids meat. Isn't that I mean? With Signal ninety
1:25:36
Speaker 1: nine's popularity and even local mainstream local news I won't
1:25:39
Speaker 1: call mainstream media, but local news five nine, twelve, nineteen,
1:25:42
Speaker 1: all of them enquire. They know that she's popular and
1:25:46
Speaker 1: an accurate source of information, so much so that they
1:25:49
Speaker 1: actually refer to her in the reporting from time to time.
1:25:52
Speaker 1: And since this has cropped up and there was no
1:25:54
Speaker 1: local reporting about this youth gang activity or call it
1:25:57
Speaker 1: what you will, isn't it a worthy follow up article? Well,
1:26:00
Speaker 1: Signal ninety nine got attacked for being a racist for
1:26:02
Speaker 1: reporting on actual crime that was going on. Hey, we're
1:26:06
Speaker 1: following up on it, and you know what, we didn't
1:26:08
Speaker 1: report on it when it was happening. We had too
1:26:09
Speaker 1: many deaths and shooting incidents to follow up on. But
1:26:13
Speaker 1: now we've got time we looked into it and signal
1:26:16
Speaker 1: ninety nine is right? How about that? I think we're
1:26:18
Speaker 1: gonna see it about that.
1:26:20
Speaker 14: Yo, we'll never see that Brian Thomas, who we'll never
1:26:23
Speaker 14: see that in writing. And by the way, anyone who
1:26:26
Speaker 14: is a Black American who sees this differently as a
1:26:30
Speaker 14: leader is an Uncle Tom. So we've got the racist
1:26:34
Speaker 14: and the Uncle Tom that are just simply saying, this
1:26:37
Speaker 14: is what's happening in our city, and I'm tired of it.
1:26:41
Speaker 12: Now. Here's the good news. The good news is the
1:26:43
Speaker 12: super majority of Black Americans that live in our city,
1:26:47
Speaker 12: in our region, and in our country are law abiding citizens.
1:26:51
Speaker 12: They're getting up every day, they're listening to this show
1:26:53
Speaker 12: right now as they're driving into work. They have nothing
1:26:56
Speaker 12: to do with any of this craziness, and they are
1:26:58
Speaker 12: just as concerned about the deterioration of what they're seeing
1:27:02
Speaker 12: in youth, whether it's white youth, White Americans, or Black
1:27:06
Speaker 12: Americans or Latino Americans. What we're seeing across the country
1:27:09
Speaker 12: with these team takeovers of people just showing up at
1:27:12
Speaker 12: Juneteenth event and stomping and fighting and shooting each other
1:27:17
Speaker 12: all throughout the weekend, whether it was in Chicago, or
1:27:20
Speaker 12: whether it was in New Jersey, or whether we saw
1:27:22
Speaker 12: the craziness here in Cincinnati, so many black Americans and
1:27:25
Speaker 12: white men. This is an American tragedy that we're experiencing
1:27:30
Speaker 12: right now. And just because of Signal ninety nine platform
1:27:34
Speaker 12: or a former vice mayor of Christopher smitheman like myself
1:27:39
Speaker 12: reports on it, or a Brian Thomas says, yes, these
1:27:42
Speaker 12: things did happen. I'm reading the cab myself. It doesn't
1:27:46
Speaker 12: make you a racist. It doesn't make me and uncle Tom,
1:27:50
Speaker 12: and it doesn't make that platform racist. We have to
1:27:53
Speaker 12: call these community, these community leaders out for the blackout
1:27:57
Speaker 12: on Friday that they just didn't want to report for
1:28:01
Speaker 12: everybody to see.
1:28:02
Speaker 1: And I will double down on the point I made
1:28:04
Speaker 1: earlier going in the prior Brad Christopher even, I have
1:28:07
Speaker 1: no idea what the racial makeup of these people is.
1:28:10
Speaker 1: As we sit here and talk about it today, How
1:28:12
Speaker 1: the hell would I know either do I?
1:28:14
Speaker 3: There?
1:28:14
Speaker 11: You have?
1:28:14
Speaker 12: Do I?
1:28:15
Speaker 14: And you? And I and you and I haven't even
1:28:17
Speaker 14: spoken about it. All we know were youth. That's all
1:28:20
Speaker 14: we know, youth. And the other thing we know is
1:28:22
Speaker 14: that the CAD is showing that the police were calling
1:28:26
Speaker 14: for backup. The bottom line is why did the mainstream
1:28:30
Speaker 14: media on Friday on juneteenth decide not to report it?
1:28:34
Speaker 14: And you and I know what the answer is.
1:28:36
Speaker 1: Don't go away more with Christopher Smithman seven thirty five
1:28:39
Speaker 1: right now at fifty five Caro, see the talk station
1:28:41
Speaker 1: Odor Exit won't talk station. It's seven thirty nine at
1:28:49
Speaker 1: fifty five karsee the talk station. Happy Monday. Brian Thomas
1:28:53
Speaker 1: here with Christopher Smithman in the middle of the smith Man. Yeah,
1:28:56
Speaker 1: I have to observe Christopher, since the reporting and the
1:28:58
Speaker 1: CAD documents and Signal nine nine comments on the youth
1:29:01
Speaker 1: gang violence that was running around and not reported by
1:29:03
Speaker 1: local media, that someone would accuse her of being racist,
1:29:06
Speaker 1: I think reveals the person making the acquisition to be
1:29:09
Speaker 1: the racist, since no one knows what the racial makeup
1:29:12
Speaker 1: is these youths. For them to say it's racist for
1:29:14
Speaker 1: her to even bring up this gang activity, then they're
1:29:17
Speaker 1: the racist because they apparently are of the mindset that
1:29:20
Speaker 1: these youths were all of color. I suppose, otherwise it
1:29:23
Speaker 1: wouldn't be racism or something.
1:29:27
Speaker 12: Which that was never a part of the reporting on Friday.
1:29:30
Speaker 12: And as you clearly said, you and I nor Signal
1:29:33
Speaker 12: ninety nine know anything about the racial makeup of the
1:29:37
Speaker 12: youth that were down there. We just know they were
1:29:39
Speaker 12: down there. There was a problem, and it was underreported,
1:29:43
Speaker 12: or better way to say it, it was not reported.
1:29:45
Speaker 12: And if it wasn't for Signal ninety nine, you and
1:29:48
Speaker 12: I wouldn't even be talking about it this morning. So
1:29:50
Speaker 12: I want to thank her and applaud her for continuing
1:29:53
Speaker 12: to provide this information. And I really like when you
1:29:56
Speaker 12: have her on your show because she gives details that
1:30:00
Speaker 12: I don't care what her sources are. All I care
1:30:02
Speaker 12: about is that the sources are accurate, and so she
1:30:05
Speaker 12: provides information to the public that nobody else is willing
1:30:08
Speaker 12: to share. This is a this is a talking point
1:30:12
Speaker 12: from the Democrats who fear her reporting. We actually have
1:30:16
Speaker 12: somebody in this town that's willing to put it out
1:30:19
Speaker 12: there and tell us what is going on. And I
1:30:21
Speaker 12: wanted to spend a little time in this segment lifting
1:30:24
Speaker 12: her up and showing her appreciation for what she's doing
1:30:29
Speaker 12: and what we need her to continue to do. Let
1:30:31
Speaker 12: me also pivot here and say this this motto that
1:30:36
Speaker 12: people have black lives matter. Now, I want to be
1:30:39
Speaker 12: clear about this. I believe that black lives matter. I
1:30:44
Speaker 12: also believe that white lives matter. I also believe that
1:30:48
Speaker 12: Latino life matters. I also believe that Asian life matters.
1:30:53
Speaker 12: I believe that life matters. Here's here's that. Here's the kicker.
1:30:58
Speaker 12: Putting a mural in front of us.
1:31:00
Speaker 14: City Hall doesn't really mean that you believe that black
1:31:04
Speaker 14: lives matter.
1:31:05
Speaker 4: Love is a verb.
1:31:06
Speaker 12: You've got to do something about it.
1:31:08
Speaker 14: Today.
1:31:09
Speaker 12: There will be no press conferences, There'll be no new
1:31:12
Speaker 12: policies launched. There'll be nothing coming from city Hall after
1:31:16
Speaker 12: a week a bloody weekend of a triple homicide, a
1:31:19
Speaker 12: fourth homicide, a double shooting, disorderly conduct in two different
1:31:24
Speaker 12: of our major parks in our neighborhood, and some kind
1:31:27
Speaker 12: of disturbance in downtown on Friday during Juneteenth and Father's
1:31:32
Speaker 12: Day weekend. I don't know about the race of everybody,
1:31:34
Speaker 12: but I know the people that were murdered were all
1:31:37
Speaker 12: Black Americans. I don't get how this mayor and this
1:31:41
Speaker 12: council wake up, look in the mirror and say, man,
1:31:44
Speaker 12: we've got an epidemic happening right now. The weather is changing.
1:31:48
Speaker 12: Black Americans are shooting each other in the street, and
1:31:52
Speaker 12: they say nothing about it, Brian Thomas. Now the next
1:31:55
Speaker 12: ribbon cutting they have, they'll say something about it. Or
1:31:59
Speaker 12: if a group of white people are getting the crap
1:32:01
Speaker 12: beat out of them in the middle of downtown, they'll say,
1:32:03
Speaker 12: let's hold a press conference and demand that a white
1:32:06
Speaker 12: person be arrested. I'm saying the blood baths that are
1:32:10
Speaker 12: happening every weekend. And by the way, I'm not a hypocrite.
1:32:14
Speaker 12: When I was the chair of Law and Public Safety,
1:32:18
Speaker 12: bring on Hope Dunley and she will tell you I
1:32:21
Speaker 12: constantly brought those mothers there talk to the police. I
1:32:25
Speaker 12: constantly called and asked them for updates on those cold cases,
1:32:29
Speaker 12: trying to solve those murders, trying to put people who
1:32:32
Speaker 12: murder people with guns in our streets, no matter what
1:32:35
Speaker 12: their race was, put them under the jail. I have
1:32:38
Speaker 12: a long history of showing from the floor of Council
1:32:42
Speaker 12: that I believe in this stuff. I am amazed at
1:32:45
Speaker 12: the silence. So don't kill me. Black lives matter. I
1:32:48
Speaker 12: don't want to hear about spending two hundred and fifty
1:32:50
Speaker 12: thousand or a million dollars in a mural. Nothing coming
1:32:53
Speaker 12: out of City Hall tells me that they care. You
1:32:56
Speaker 12: know what tells me, Brian Thomas cares American that I'm
1:33:01
Speaker 12: talking to. He cares because he talks about it, and
1:33:04
Speaker 12: he gives people like me a platform. Signal ninety nine
1:33:07
Speaker 12: cares about it because she's writing about it. She's bringing
1:33:10
Speaker 12: it to our attention. Right, Damon Lynch, who, by the way,
1:33:14
Speaker 12: he and I and our family were all members of
1:33:16
Speaker 12: the same country club.
1:33:18
Speaker 14: We swam in the same pool.
1:33:19
Speaker 12: Right.
1:33:20
Speaker 14: He comes from a beautiful family. His father, his mother,
1:33:24
Speaker 14: these are beautiful people. I don't ever say anything bad
1:33:27
Speaker 14: about Reverend Damon Lynch, the son, the father, or anybody,
1:33:30
Speaker 14: out of respect for my mother and my father. I'm
1:33:33
Speaker 14: asking him, Reverend Damon Lynch, we need to lend a
1:33:37
Speaker 14: voice to the murderers that are happening in our community
1:33:41
Speaker 14: between black Americans. We just don't want to hear you
1:33:44
Speaker 14: show up when a white officer is involved in a
1:33:48
Speaker 14: shooting with the youth on the banks who has a gun.
1:33:50
Speaker 14: We need you on the front line lending a clear,
1:33:54
Speaker 14: concise moral voice here. This is not me calling out
1:33:58
Speaker 14: Reverend Damon Lynch. This is thing.
1:34:00
Speaker 12: He will evoke my name from time to time. I
1:34:03
Speaker 12: considered him a friend. We grew up together, our families
1:34:07
Speaker 12: grow up together, grew up together, we were members of
1:34:10
Speaker 12: the same country clubs. I don't understand it. We need
1:34:14
Speaker 12: more Black Americans right now, not the silent majority saying
1:34:20
Speaker 12: enough is enough, Brian Thomas.
1:34:22
Speaker 14: We cannot continue to have black people murdering each other every.
1:34:26
Speaker 12: Weekend, and that like is nothing like. It's just happening.
1:34:30
Speaker 14: It's just a part of our culture.
1:34:31
Speaker 3: It's not.
1:34:34
Speaker 1: Well. Your passion is obvious, Christopher, and I understand it.
1:34:37
Speaker 1: And every opportunity where a black person guns down another
1:34:41
Speaker 1: black person for whatever reason, should be when the black
1:34:45
Speaker 1: community leaders stand up and say, what in the hell
1:34:47
Speaker 1: is going on? You are murdering your own people. Black
1:34:51
Speaker 1: lives matter, so why are you killing them? It seems
1:34:55
Speaker 1: like a logical step to just get out there and
1:34:57
Speaker 1: say that and do it. Be self critical, be introspect,
1:35:00
Speaker 1: but where the problems came from. Offer some solutions that
1:35:03
Speaker 1: don't involve taxpayer money, for non governmental organizations to go
1:35:07
Speaker 1: out and do work in the community. It's got to
1:35:10
Speaker 1: be more than some governmental fix or solution to this.
1:35:12
Speaker 1: It's got to be people starting to care about their
1:35:15
Speaker 1: own neighborhoods and their own families, Where do all these
1:35:18
Speaker 1: youths come from that are running around at all hours
1:35:21
Speaker 1: of the day. Have they no family life? Maybe that's
1:35:23
Speaker 1: something that needs to be looked into.
1:35:25
Speaker 14: Perhaps our parents, our parents parenting, That is definitely a
1:35:29
Speaker 14: part of it. But it doesn't take organizations like Black
1:35:33
Speaker 14: Lives Matter off the hook, because here's this morning is
1:35:38
Speaker 14: where we need to see. The press conference show us
1:35:41
Speaker 14: that black lives matter when you deal with where the
1:35:43
Speaker 14: greatest violence and murders are happening. They're happening between Black
1:35:48
Speaker 14: Americans in Cincinnati. Now, if you go out to California,
1:35:52
Speaker 14: might be Latinos who are doing it. I'm talking about
1:35:55
Speaker 14: where I live. I'm saying, when I wake up and
1:35:57
Speaker 14: I look at the news this weekend homicides, all of
1:36:01
Speaker 14: them African Americans. I'm saying, we need a press conference
1:36:05
Speaker 14: from Black Lives Matter on the steps of city Hall.
1:36:08
Speaker 14: Show us love is a verb by calling attention to
1:36:11
Speaker 14: it and demanding that the community cooperate because we've got
1:36:15
Speaker 14: four homicides and no arrests. We've got four homicides and
1:36:18
Speaker 14: no arrests every single weekend. Don't tell me that you
1:36:23
Speaker 14: don't know who shot four people. There are people in
1:36:26
Speaker 14: our community who know exactly who did the shooting. We
1:36:29
Speaker 14: need them to cooperate with our great Cincinnati Police Department
1:36:32
Speaker 14: so we can arrest them. We need judges at Hamilton
1:36:35
Speaker 14: County who believe that black lives matter, who will give
1:36:38
Speaker 14: bills and hold them accountable and then put them under the.
1:36:41
Speaker 12: Jail for murdering four people. You know, it wasn't you know,
1:36:44
Speaker 12: we say a mass shooting is I think is? The
1:36:47
Speaker 12: FBI says four people. It might be above three, but
1:36:50
Speaker 12: I think it's four people. So just because there were
1:36:53
Speaker 12: three to one place, one another place, it wasn't a
1:36:55
Speaker 12: mass shooting. That is a horrible weekend for the Seas.
1:36:59
Speaker 12: Since that, we're looking more and more like Chicago, brother,
1:37:01
Speaker 12: We're looking more and more like Detroit. Brother. We have
1:37:04
Speaker 12: got to turn the table. We have an absent mayor,
1:37:07
Speaker 12: we have an absent members of council who seem to
1:37:10
Speaker 12: just neglect their responsibilities. Bottom line here is, I'm gonna
1:37:15
Speaker 12: call it out, Brian. There's gonna be something bad that's
1:37:18
Speaker 12: gonna happen in our city. And I hate to tell
1:37:20
Speaker 12: you this. Right, they're gonna jump the wrong person, They're
1:37:24
Speaker 12: gonna attack the wrong family, and that person is gonna
1:37:27
Speaker 12: be like me, sir. They are concealed carry and they
1:37:32
Speaker 12: are not gonna allow their wife, their daughter, themselves be
1:37:36
Speaker 12: beat to death. They're gonna say, twelve in the box.
1:37:39
Speaker 12: I'd rather take my chances there than to have you
1:37:43
Speaker 12: take my life and kick my head in and kick
1:37:46
Speaker 12: my eyeballs out. I'm not gonna allow it. I'm just
1:37:48
Speaker 12: telling you, Brian Thomas, we are headed here for a
1:37:51
Speaker 12: freight trade, and we have an absent mayor that just
1:37:54
Speaker 12: will not call law enforcement and say, guys, ladies, do
1:37:57
Speaker 12: your job. CPD resupport you. There are lots of people
1:38:02
Speaker 12: out here, all across our community who support you. We
1:38:05
Speaker 12: love you. We have your back. Even when the mayor
1:38:08
Speaker 12: doesn't have your back, we have your back, even when
1:38:10
Speaker 12: city council doesn't have your back. We have your back.
1:38:13
Speaker 12: Go out there, do your jobs, do proactive policing, get
1:38:16
Speaker 12: these guns off these youths, and we will have your back.
1:38:20
Speaker 12: Bottom line. That's where we have to be, Brian Thomas.
1:38:22
Speaker 12: We've got to take our city back, and we've got
1:38:24
Speaker 12: to do it with the first line of defense, our
1:38:26
Speaker 12: Cincinnati Police Department.
1:38:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, or starts in the home too. One may make
1:38:30
Speaker 1: a great argument on that you never have to get
1:38:32
Speaker 1: to police involvement if you start from the home and
1:38:35
Speaker 1: take an active, caring role in the raising of your children.
1:38:38
Speaker 1: On the heels of Father's day. Christopher Smithman, thank you
1:38:41
Speaker 1: very much for your passionate defense of the city of
1:38:43
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and for law enforcement. Appreciated. We'll do this again next,
1:38:46
Speaker 1: Thank you, brother, Thank you many you.
1:38:48
Speaker 14: Next to my day.
1:38:48
Speaker 1: Goak forward to it's seven forty nine fifty five. Care
1:38:50
Speaker 1: see the talk station.
1:38:52
Speaker 8: And on those committees and understand what they're thinking is
1:38:55
Speaker 8: with regard to interest rates and that that becomes used
1:38:58
Speaker 8: as a FED rate for cast that that we hear
1:39:01
Speaker 8: every quarter when when we hear, you know, Andy Stout,
1:39:03
Speaker 8: our chief investment officer, comes and talks about what we
1:39:06
Speaker 8: think industrates doing. A lot of that has to do
1:39:07
Speaker 8: with what is the FED thinking. That's what the dot
1:39:10
Speaker 8: plot tells us. And Kevin declined to participate in this
1:39:12
Speaker 8: time around, so he seems to believe that that there's
1:39:16
Speaker 8: there's too much communication and it affects prices. The FED
1:39:19
Speaker 8: would rather sit back and watch what the market does
1:39:21
Speaker 8: to prices and make decisions based off of that.
1:39:24
Speaker 7: So we'll see if there's a good idea.
1:39:25
Speaker 1: Not well, isn't the dot plot as you refer to it,
1:39:28
Speaker 1: basically putting your finger in the air and seeing which
1:39:30
Speaker 1: direction the wind is blowing, And so far as all
1:39:32
Speaker 1: the individuals might have by way of opinion on the
1:39:35
Speaker 1: raising of the rates or not. I think that's a
1:39:38
Speaker 1: valuable piece of information, isn't it. But I guess they
1:39:41
Speaker 1: know the answer to the questions raise the rates, right,
1:39:44
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to hear that.
1:39:45
Speaker 8: At the end of the day, rates are not raised
1:39:48
Speaker 8: or lowered by what is happening in the you know what,
1:39:50
Speaker 8: by what the data is telling us. They are raised
1:39:52
Speaker 8: or lowered by human beings. Right, So this is a
1:39:54
Speaker 8: poll of human opinions. Right, So not having that anymore
1:39:57
Speaker 8: leaves us to we're simply guessing now, now all the
1:40:00
Speaker 8: poll and somebody's going to step in and do this.
1:40:02
Speaker 7: The poll is simply going to be who's going to.
1:40:04
Speaker 8: Guess what is in the minds of the of the
1:40:07
Speaker 8: Federal Reserve government. Now, he that doesn't mean we don't
1:40:09
Speaker 8: have this dot plot anymore. We just don't have the
1:40:11
Speaker 8: Fed chairs opinion of it. And he's the ultimate arbiter
1:40:14
Speaker 8: of which way we go. An interest rates so, yeah,
1:40:16
Speaker 8: this is going to be less information, and the purported
1:40:19
Speaker 8: goal is to prevent the FED from giving information that
1:40:23
Speaker 8: drives the markets. He thinks that market prices are the
1:40:26
Speaker 8: most important source of information for policymakers, and if we
1:40:29
Speaker 8: influence those market prices, then we're really kind of what
1:40:32
Speaker 8: are we really accomplishing here?
1:40:34
Speaker 1: Hmm, Well, I know, I thought this is the kind
1:40:37
Speaker 1: of thing we rely on all the time. It just
1:40:40
Speaker 1: seems to me, though, that it's it's kind of a
1:40:44
Speaker 1: poor job of covering up. I think everybody probably realizes
1:40:48
Speaker 1: that the right thing to do, at least under traditional
1:40:50
Speaker 1: reactions to inflation, is to raise the interest rates. But
1:40:53
Speaker 1: of course that creates problems and the t bills are
1:40:55
Speaker 1: going to have to be more, are going to go
1:40:58
Speaker 1: out at a higher payment rate.
1:40:59
Speaker 10: And I.
1:41:03
Speaker 1: Don't know, Brian, I just it seems to me that
1:41:06
Speaker 1: it's the So the the FED chair ultimately is the
1:41:11
Speaker 1: ultimate decision maker, period, end of story. If everybody around him,
1:41:15
Speaker 1: all the FED chairs collectively said you must raise the
1:41:17
Speaker 1: raid to half point point, whatever they say, he can
1:41:20
Speaker 1: say no and say no, we're going to lower them right, correct, Yeah.
1:41:23
Speaker 7: That is ultimately his decision.
1:41:25
Speaker 8: These are just opinions that are gathered to support him
1:41:29
Speaker 8: from his other you know, ominions who can see around
1:41:32
Speaker 8: their different regions of the world and share their opinions
1:41:35
Speaker 8: as well. You know, some of this may be that
1:41:37
Speaker 8: maybe we don't want to progress project.
1:41:39
Speaker 7: This is pure speculation on.
1:41:41
Speaker 8: My part, But let's think about it, Gud, you kind
1:41:42
Speaker 8: of went down this path a second ago.
1:41:43
Speaker 7: Let's think about what this means.
1:41:44
Speaker 8: If we choose to raise interest rates, we are choosing
1:41:47
Speaker 8: to pay more interest.
1:41:48
Speaker 7: This is effectively like and it.
1:41:49
Speaker 8: May be necessary, but it's effectively like calling your bank
1:41:52
Speaker 8: and asking for a higher rate on your mortgage.
1:41:54
Speaker 7: It's not something that we want to do.
1:41:56
Speaker 8: And I'm sure in today's day and age of politicaligan's
1:42:00
Speaker 8: and jerrymandering and all that other stuff, I doubt we
1:42:02
Speaker 8: want to telegraph that we might be about to do that.
1:42:05
Speaker 7: But as you said, all everything points.
1:42:07
Speaker 8: To we probably do need to raise rates to get
1:42:09
Speaker 8: inflation back under control a little bit. It seems to
1:42:11
Speaker 8: be wobbling just a bit.
1:42:13
Speaker 1: Well perhaps, and I'm just throwing this out as a
1:42:15
Speaker 1: possibility rather than just trying to hide what everybody thinks
1:42:18
Speaker 1: is really should happen and keep the interest rates down.
1:42:22
Speaker 1: For a variety of other reasons. Maybe it's the Strait
1:42:24
Speaker 1: of Horror moves. We're waiting to figure out if we
1:42:25
Speaker 1: can get that back open, maybe provide some economic relief
1:42:28
Speaker 1: to the globe. Maybe the inflation will be addressed by
1:42:31
Speaker 1: reopening that that waterway up. Is that potentially a reason
1:42:35
Speaker 1: why you wouldn't want to say anything, of course.
1:42:37
Speaker 8: Yeah, and kind of hoping for that, you know, that
1:42:39
Speaker 8: miracle from left field to take interest rates down or
1:42:42
Speaker 8: to take inflation down for us. You know, I'm not
1:42:45
Speaker 8: sure if I'm not exactly convinced that we're at that point.
1:42:49
Speaker 8: What I heard over the weekend was no, we're going
1:42:51
Speaker 8: to close the Straight of Horror moves over the weekend,
1:42:53
Speaker 8: and I heard from from the United States side that
1:42:54
Speaker 8: everything's great.
1:42:55
Speaker 7: We're almost at an agreement here.
1:42:57
Speaker 8: So you know, there's just going to be I think
1:42:59
Speaker 8: there's just going to be information coming out of this
1:43:01
Speaker 8: administration than we've ever had that we've had in decades.
1:43:04
Speaker 1: Certainly possibility all right, well, pivoting over Straight of Horn
1:43:07
Speaker 1: moves obviously impacting the price of oil, but the oil
1:43:10
Speaker 1: prices have been dropping. Maybe there's cautious optimism. I just
1:43:15
Speaker 1: pulled up Brent crud This morning it's seventy eight bucks
1:43:19
Speaker 1: and not that long ag just within the last few
1:43:21
Speaker 1: weeks it was almost at one hundred bucks a barrel.
1:43:23
Speaker 1: So there's one particular oil future, and the markets are
1:43:27
Speaker 1: kind of flat this morning in terms of futures, just
1:43:30
Speaker 1: really flat. So this instability in the straight of horror moves.
1:43:35
Speaker 1: You're right. It was closed on Saturday, maybe got opened
1:43:38
Speaker 1: partially yesterday. It seems to be completely in a state
1:43:40
Speaker 1: of flux, but oil has nonetheless dropped, so we're getting
1:43:44
Speaker 1: some relief there. Subject to changing on a moment's notice, Brian,
1:43:48
Speaker 1: I guess I'm kind of wondering that, well.
1:43:50
Speaker 8: Everything, I mean, I think everything is subject to change
1:43:52
Speaker 8: on a moment's notice, because that's how we operate, you know.
1:43:54
Speaker 8: I think the markets are quiet today because nobody wants
1:43:57
Speaker 8: to believe that what we're hearing is the final answer.
1:44:00
Speaker 8: The market hates insecurity, it hates not knowing what the
1:44:03
Speaker 8: result is. So I'm almost a little surprised that we
1:44:06
Speaker 8: don't have more wobbly markets, but I think we are.
1:44:08
Speaker 8: We're a couple of years into this administration and not
1:44:12
Speaker 8: knowing what's coming, you know, and not knowing whether we're
1:44:15
Speaker 8: going to zig right or zag left and so forth. So,
1:44:18
Speaker 8: but it does seem we're getting used to the idea
1:44:19
Speaker 8: because underneath this is still as we're sitting here right
1:44:22
Speaker 8: now and this moment is still a solid economy. Money
1:44:25
Speaker 8: is still moving in circles. It's just the unknown, so
1:44:28
Speaker 8: the market doesn't want to commit one way or another.
1:44:29
Speaker 8: We're not anticipating, you know, going over the cliff, but
1:44:32
Speaker 8: we're also not saying that everything's wonderful everybody back in
1:44:35
Speaker 8: the pool. We're just kind of holding steady, which is
1:44:38
Speaker 8: ironic because we are an award that of the type
1:44:41
Speaker 8: we've not seen in a very very very long time,
1:44:44
Speaker 8: and we don't seem to be able to get control
1:44:46
Speaker 8: of it as much as easily as we have in
1:44:48
Speaker 8: the past and other conflicts. Yet the market is still
1:44:50
Speaker 8: holding steady because you know, as I mentioned, I think
1:44:53
Speaker 8: we we're just not in panic mode yet.
1:44:55
Speaker 7: Hopefully we won't get there, but we're okay right now.
1:44:57
Speaker 1: Well, maybe the market is beyond panic mode. I guess
1:45:00
Speaker 1: I capitulation just well, it's you know, already its continues
1:45:06
Speaker 1: to increase. I think many are of the mind that
1:45:09
Speaker 1: perhaps the market generally speaking is overvalued. But you know,
1:45:13
Speaker 1: you've convinced the rest of the world and any every
1:45:15
Speaker 1: other financial planner who's been at this game for a
1:45:18
Speaker 1: while realizes the joy of compounding interest, and the market
1:45:22
Speaker 1: always ends up doing well over time. So people invest
1:45:25
Speaker 1: in the market. The market stays up regardless of what's
1:45:27
Speaker 1: going on in the world. We've already thrown out the
1:45:29
Speaker 1: whole concept of valuing stocks based on things like pe ratios.
1:45:33
Speaker 1: It's now just like just mean stock trading these days.
1:45:36
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's it's purely based off of I should say purely.
1:45:39
Speaker 8: That's other there are There is no always en never,
1:45:41
Speaker 8: but much more so than in the past. It's simply
1:45:44
Speaker 8: an opinion of the overall community on many stocks. If
1:45:47
Speaker 8: the herd wants to buy it, we're going to buy it.
1:45:49
Speaker 8: And the herd isn't really paying attention to price to
1:45:51
Speaker 8: earnings ratios and sales and book value and all that
1:45:54
Speaker 8: kind of stuff anymore.
1:45:55
Speaker 7: It's simply, you know, valued at what it is because
1:45:58
Speaker 7: it's valued at what it is, and.
1:46:00
Speaker 8: That has been true for a long time. That we
1:46:02
Speaker 8: just that defines the cryptocurrency industry, by the way. There's
1:46:05
Speaker 8: no structure behind that, and yet people continue to throw
1:46:08
Speaker 8: money into it, So it's just a pricing based off
1:46:11
Speaker 8: of demand, not actual reality.
1:46:14
Speaker 1: It's an amazing world we live in right now. Don't
1:46:16
Speaker 1: go away more with Money Monday's Brian James. Are women
1:46:19
Speaker 1: better savers than men? Huh? We'll find that out. Also,
1:46:23
Speaker 1: why are young investors all ditching the stock market? Going
1:46:26
Speaker 1: the opposite direction of my theory? A moment ago that's
1:46:29
Speaker 1: coming up with Brian James. Don't Go Away fifty five
1:46:31
Speaker 1: caron kar Seedy talk Station eighteen fifty five KCD talk
1:46:37
Speaker 1: station at the Monday Brian Thomas with Brian James to
1:46:41
Speaker 1: what will we call money Monday? Of course, Brian's a
1:46:43
Speaker 1: certified financial planner, trying to get people on the right
1:46:46
Speaker 1: path thinking about the retirement and doing the right thing
1:46:48
Speaker 1: by way of planning and maybe providing some consultation to women.
1:46:53
Speaker 1: Wait a second, are women have lower bounces in their
1:46:56
Speaker 1: four to one k but they're described as maybe better
1:46:59
Speaker 1: at saving?
1:47:00
Speaker 14: Are?
1:47:00
Speaker 1: And you're gonna have to make some sense out of
1:47:01
Speaker 1: this one.
1:47:02
Speaker 7: Yeah, a little bit. This is a little bit of
1:47:03
Speaker 7: this is counterintuitive.
1:47:05
Speaker 8: This comes from a Vanguard study that they call pow
1:47:08
Speaker 8: America Saves, and that's something we look at every year.
1:47:11
Speaker 8: It's very helpble for me to understand, and it's pretty
1:47:14
Speaker 8: accurate to my own experience with my clients.
1:47:16
Speaker 7: So here's the conclusions that they drew.
1:47:19
Speaker 8: Women have lower average furrow and K balances than men,
1:47:22
Speaker 8: tend to contribute at similar or higher rates, though also
1:47:26
Speaker 8: more likely to use professionally managed target date funds and
1:47:29
Speaker 8: more likely to stay invested and less likely to trade excessively.
1:47:33
Speaker 8: Now that last point there, I think is the difference
1:47:36
Speaker 8: between all of this. I think there's a couple conclusions
1:47:38
Speaker 8: that you can draw here. First off, let's talk about
1:47:40
Speaker 8: the balance gap. Why is one lower than the other? Well,
1:47:43
Speaker 8: it has to do with women tend to earn a
1:47:46
Speaker 8: little bit less, and they also tend to experience more
1:47:49
Speaker 8: workforce interruptions of course than men do historically speaking, right,
1:47:53
Speaker 8: this isn't political chat.
1:47:54
Speaker 7: This is merely results of a survey.
1:47:56
Speaker 8: All these questions were asked in the survey, and the
1:47:59
Speaker 8: women who respond we're in these types situations and.
1:48:01
Speaker 7: That makes logical sense.
1:48:03
Speaker 4: Right.
1:48:03
Speaker 8: I don't know that any company has correctly solved the
1:48:06
Speaker 8: idea for how do you let someone take a lot
1:48:07
Speaker 8: of time off several times to have children and then
1:48:11
Speaker 8: make sure that the income is equivalent to I'm not
1:48:13
Speaker 8: saying it shouldn't be that way.
1:48:14
Speaker 7: I just don't know how the math work.
1:48:16
Speaker 1: Right. They are the ges stating parent, since we've in
1:48:19
Speaker 1: modern parlance as opposed to the men who are a
1:48:21
Speaker 1: nonjest dating parent. So somebody's got to have the baby.
1:48:24
Speaker 7: And last time I googled that was how that worked.
1:48:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the fetus in the womb and you've got
1:48:28
Speaker 1: to have a womb and or yeah, right, we all
1:48:30
Speaker 1: go down that. I see, I'm gonna get political on it, Brian,
1:48:32
Speaker 1: now ignore me, but yes, that is a reality that
1:48:37
Speaker 1: Now they looked at five million people's investment accounts and savings.
1:48:41
Speaker 1: There's a whole lot. Did did they cross check it
1:48:44
Speaker 1: against whether the individuals were married or not? Because I'm
1:48:47
Speaker 1: kind of curious because apparently the key to financial success
1:48:50
Speaker 1: quite often is a good marriage that lasts.
1:48:54
Speaker 7: Yes, I don't know.
1:48:56
Speaker 8: I don't know that the study looks specifically at that,
1:48:58
Speaker 8: but I've looked at that for decades, and yes, I
1:48:59
Speaker 8: can confirm.
1:49:00
Speaker 7: And it's a simple question.
1:49:01
Speaker 8: This has less to do with the morality or non
1:49:03
Speaker 8: morality or whatever you want to call it of being
1:49:05
Speaker 8: married Hey, if I have a roommate for the rest
1:49:07
Speaker 8: of my life, my life is cheaper. Especially if that
1:49:10
Speaker 8: roommate also happens to have their own source of income.
1:49:12
Speaker 8: Then yeah, absolutely, two people together with two sets of
1:49:15
Speaker 8: resources ultimately trying to cover the same goals of keeping
1:49:20
Speaker 8: a house, going in a family and so forth. Yes,
1:49:22
Speaker 8: they're going to land in better shape. So you know,
1:49:24
Speaker 8: the math simply supports that a lot better. But I
1:49:28
Speaker 8: wanted to focus on what I can confirm too, with
1:49:31
Speaker 8: the comment that was made in here about excessive trading
1:49:34
Speaker 8: and men panicking sooner than women. I can confirm that
1:49:36
Speaker 8: is the case because men like tend to like to
1:49:39
Speaker 8: grab a hold of things.
1:49:40
Speaker 7: We like to fix things right.
1:49:41
Speaker 8: If there's something wrong, or I perceive there's something wrong,
1:49:44
Speaker 8: I want to touch it. I want to screw around
1:49:46
Speaker 8: with it, I want to make it better. And that
1:49:48
Speaker 8: is really the opposite. There's a whole lot about investing
1:49:51
Speaker 8: that is completely counterintuitive, messing with it every day.
1:49:54
Speaker 4: You know.
1:49:55
Speaker 8: The analogy that I always use is if you're trying
1:49:57
Speaker 8: to grow carrots and you pull them up every day
1:50:00
Speaker 8: to see how they're looking, they're not going to do
1:50:02
Speaker 8: very well, right.
1:50:03
Speaker 7: And so women do tend to It's in my experience.
1:50:06
Speaker 8: Now, women do tend to stay an arm's length or
1:50:09
Speaker 8: two away, and they will leave it alone, which means
1:50:12
Speaker 8: they do tend to ride out the ups and downs
1:50:14
Speaker 8: a little better. But they also tend to lean toward
1:50:16
Speaker 8: a less risky portfolio to begin with. Men want to
1:50:20
Speaker 8: roll the dice and they want to screw with it
1:50:21
Speaker 8: all the time. Neither is the exact precise right way
1:50:24
Speaker 8: to go, which is why most married couples who are
1:50:26
Speaker 8: willing to communicate are gonna be just fun. It's the
1:50:29
Speaker 8: ones that won't talk to.
1:50:30
Speaker 7: Each other that are going to have some financial issues.
1:50:32
Speaker 1: Well, I got the impression from the article that women
1:50:34
Speaker 1: also are better at like a rainy day fund, you know,
1:50:37
Speaker 1: keeping that extra cash on hand just in case something
1:50:39
Speaker 1: bad happens, easily accessible cash.
1:50:43
Speaker 8: Yeah, and that has to do with that whole risk
1:50:44
Speaker 8: profile thing. So I write a rainy day fund. An
1:50:46
Speaker 8: emergency fund is its job is to be there. It's
1:50:49
Speaker 8: job is not to return, you know, a decent amount
1:50:52
Speaker 8: of money. It's its job is to simply be there,
1:50:54
Speaker 8: Like you said, in case it rings. Men tend to
1:50:57
Speaker 8: be a little bit more resistant to the idea of
1:50:59
Speaker 8: why should I part you know, six months twelve months
1:51:01
Speaker 8: worth of expenses, that's a decent amount of money. Why
1:51:03
Speaker 8: should I park that in something that's not going to
1:51:06
Speaker 8: return very much when the market's doing great. And those
1:51:09
Speaker 8: are the ones who suffer the most when you know,
1:51:11
Speaker 8: the economy takes a downturn and we lose.
1:51:13
Speaker 7: A job, get laid off or whatever, because.
1:51:16
Speaker 8: All those things tend to come at the same time,
1:51:18
Speaker 8: and that happens, of course, when the market is also
1:51:21
Speaker 8: taking a beating. So if your emergency fund is in
1:51:23
Speaker 8: the market, you probably tend to be a dude more
1:51:25
Speaker 8: than a woman, and that that's where the risk is.
1:51:29
Speaker 8: Women tend to plan ahead a little bit more, a
1:51:31
Speaker 8: little bit better than men do. And therefore that emergency
1:51:34
Speaker 8: fund is really something. When I'm talking to a married couple,
1:51:36
Speaker 8: it will usually come from the from the wife in
1:51:39
Speaker 8: the relationship, not so much the husband, in terms of, yes,
1:51:42
Speaker 8: we need an emergency fund, and let's calculate it, and
1:51:45
Speaker 8: let's make an intelligent.
1:51:45
Speaker 1: Decision, all right, and not to play one off against
1:51:48
Speaker 1: each other. Not the man of the women, but the
1:51:49
Speaker 1: emergency fund of the investment. I can only imagine that
1:51:53
Speaker 1: establishing that kind of emergency fund, you know, six months
1:51:56
Speaker 1: of to live off of that you have parked in
1:51:58
Speaker 1: an easily accessible count. Well, that's a big ask when
1:52:01
Speaker 1: you're also trying to contribute to the longer term investment.
1:52:03
Speaker 1: So as a financial planner, should the quick cash rainy
1:52:08
Speaker 1: day fund take priority in terms of establishment over the
1:52:11
Speaker 1: investment or should you kind of like do a little
1:52:13
Speaker 1: bit in both directions the entire time you're investing.
1:52:18
Speaker 8: If somebody is completely starting from zero right here, I
1:52:21
Speaker 8: have X dollars left over every month, should I should
1:52:24
Speaker 8: I build up my emergency fundor should I build up
1:52:25
Speaker 8: my four O one K? When somebody is going to
1:52:27
Speaker 8: starting in that manner, I always recommend let's let's do
1:52:30
Speaker 8: a little bit of both, because ignoring one, uh to
1:52:35
Speaker 8: completely favor the other is going to lead to more stress, honestly,
1:52:38
Speaker 8: because you'll simply focus on I've done nothing about this
1:52:40
Speaker 8: when I've done everything over here. So if you're getting started,
1:52:43
Speaker 8: I think a little bit of both is fine. You're
1:52:45
Speaker 8: not going to hit that goal right away all at
1:52:46
Speaker 8: once anyway, you know. It's kind of like if you
1:52:49
Speaker 8: want to you want to go on a diet, you
1:52:50
Speaker 8: want to lose some pounds. Well, you shouldn't only eat
1:52:53
Speaker 8: better and not exercise.
1:52:54
Speaker 7: You should do a little of both.
1:52:55
Speaker 8: Make sacrifices on both sides to make the progress that
1:52:58
Speaker 8: you need. And eventually, if you do that for a while,
1:53:01
Speaker 8: you'll start to see you'll have wind falls. Somebody gets
1:53:03
Speaker 8: a raise and all of a sudden there's a little
1:53:05
Speaker 8: more cash, or we inherit something, or you know, some
1:53:08
Speaker 8: kind of windfall. Well, that windfall can be treated to
1:53:10
Speaker 8: kind of cap off the emergency fundal it doesn't take
1:53:13
Speaker 8: nearly as long to reach an emergency fund goal as
1:53:16
Speaker 8: people might think. It looks like when you're sitting at
1:53:18
Speaker 8: the bottom of mount it looks insurmountable. Yeah, but it
1:53:21
Speaker 8: does happen fairly quickly. You can't get there. But no,
1:53:24
Speaker 8: But here's the important part, Brian. Know what the goal is,
1:53:26
Speaker 8: Know what you're shooting for, so that you'll know when
1:53:28
Speaker 8: you hit it, and then you can completely ignore it.
1:53:30
Speaker 7: If you think about an emergency fund, you fill that bucket.
1:53:32
Speaker 7: You're done.
1:53:33
Speaker 8: Now you can focus completely on four oh one K.
1:53:35
Speaker 8: There is no benefit to hoarding cash without a goal.
1:53:39
Speaker 8: Figure out what your emergency fund is, amount needs to be,
1:53:41
Speaker 8: figure out what you're going to need over the next
1:53:43
Speaker 8: twelve months and then kill it after that.
1:53:45
Speaker 1: And if you can't do that on your own, get
1:53:46
Speaker 1: a financial planner to help walk you through and put
1:53:48
Speaker 1: you on a plan. It's a smart thing to do.
1:53:50
Speaker 1: Eight twenty five. Right now we're going to find out
1:53:51
Speaker 1: why young investors are ditching the stock market. That's with
1:53:56
Speaker 1: Brian James coming up next. O Koway fifty five KRC
1:54:00
Speaker 1: eight to fifty five KARACD Talk Station. Brian Thomas here
1:54:03
Speaker 1: with Brian James, all with financials. Brian James doing what
1:54:05
Speaker 1: we call money Monday and pitting over young investors moving
1:54:09
Speaker 1: away from the stock market. And I note this is
1:54:11
Speaker 1: rich the survey done by Bank America, and I don't
1:54:14
Speaker 1: know how many of them there are out there, but
1:54:16
Speaker 1: they looked at individuals aged twenty one to forty three
1:54:19
Speaker 1: with at least three million dollars in assets. So that's
1:54:23
Speaker 1: kind of rarefied air at that age, isn't it. Brian James.
1:54:27
Speaker 8: Yeah, that was the very first thing I saw in
1:54:29
Speaker 8: this survey was, you know, young people pulling away from
1:54:31
Speaker 8: the stock market. And then the first thing I've learned
1:54:34
Speaker 8: Brian to kind of figure out who are we talking
1:54:36
Speaker 8: to here, let's make sure we understand a.
1:54:38
Speaker 7: Little bit about the perspective. So, yeah, these are twenty
1:54:40
Speaker 7: one anybody at least twenty one years.
1:54:42
Speaker 8: Old, So yes, there's older groups in here too, but
1:54:45
Speaker 8: everybody has at least three million dollars in investable assets.
1:54:48
Speaker 8: In other words, the exact opposite of your average American.
1:54:51
Speaker 8: And so the three generations are a few generations involved
1:54:56
Speaker 8: in your gen Z and millennials basically twenty one to
1:54:58
Speaker 8: forty five investors, Gen X boomers, and the silent generation
1:55:02
Speaker 8: anybody older than forty six. Basically big big lumps were
1:55:05
Speaker 8: lumping together your non average person. Uh so most of
1:55:08
Speaker 8: this in some of this kind of devalued to me
1:55:11
Speaker 8: the value of the study of the yeah person. Sixty
1:55:16
Speaker 8: two thirds of these inherited their wealth, seventy four percent
1:55:19
Speaker 8: of them received trust distribution. So hopefully this is another one.
1:55:22
Speaker 1: Brian, I was just going to say, what we need
1:55:24
Speaker 1: to know is not where these guys are investing their money,
1:55:26
Speaker 1: or these people are investing their money, but how in
1:55:28
Speaker 1: the hell they end up with three million dollars on
1:55:29
Speaker 1: their hands by age twenty one. That's the key element
1:55:32
Speaker 1: right there. It is answered it.
1:55:33
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, reminds me of that old Steve Martin. But
1:55:36
Speaker 8: how do you make a million dollars? Well, first start
1:55:38
Speaker 8: with three million dollars and go from there.
1:55:43
Speaker 11: To a.
1:55:46
Speaker 7: Whoops, my bad.
1:55:47
Speaker 8: H But now, the point of this study was to
1:55:49
Speaker 8: see where this money is going. If they're saying that
1:55:51
Speaker 8: they don't believe in the stock market, where are they going, Well,
1:55:54
Speaker 8: they're well, a lot of them are saying that forty
1:55:57
Speaker 8: five percent of this survey base is invested in physical gold.
1:56:00
Speaker 8: The other forty five percent is interested in physical gold.
1:56:03
Speaker 8: And honestly, this whole section here of this survey you
1:56:06
Speaker 8: could put back in any timeframe because they're citing all
1:56:09
Speaker 8: the same things people always cite when it comes to gold.
1:56:11
Speaker 7: Inflation concerns, we've got huge federal debt, there's geopolitical.
1:56:15
Speaker 8: Tensions, concerns about stock valuations. You could have said that
1:56:18
Speaker 8: anytime over the last forty years and made a valid argument.
1:56:22
Speaker 8: But at the same time, gold has simply not kept
1:56:25
Speaker 8: up with other things you can do.
1:56:27
Speaker 7: There's nothing wrong with having a little bit of, you know, gold.
1:56:29
Speaker 7: I don't have my problem with that.
1:56:30
Speaker 8: I don't own any because I don't really care. It
1:56:32
Speaker 8: doesn't matter to me what the market does over two
1:56:35
Speaker 8: a three year period. I've got other ways to deal
1:56:37
Speaker 8: with that situation, so it doesn't matter to me that
1:56:39
Speaker 8: I have an asset that held its value. Gold doesn't
1:56:42
Speaker 8: generate any income, It doesn't provide any value other than
1:56:44
Speaker 8: what people think it's worth, as opposed to like a
1:56:46
Speaker 8: rental property that at least spits out income, those kinds
1:56:48
Speaker 8: of things. But these younger folks in this survey are
1:56:51
Speaker 8: apparently putting a decent chunks of money away of their
1:56:54
Speaker 8: inherited wealth into physical gold.
1:56:56
Speaker 1: Does gold have its own marketing team? Because you know,
1:56:59
Speaker 1: as you were talking about gold, I just wrote down platinum, zinc, copper.
1:57:03
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a gazillion commodities they are available on
1:57:05
Speaker 1: the market, and many of which might provide you with
1:57:07
Speaker 1: a better return on investment. They just don't have the
1:57:10
Speaker 1: long term historical significance or marketing that gold has had
1:57:14
Speaker 1: behind it.
1:57:16
Speaker 8: Well, and gold goes back, you know, literally thousands of years,
1:57:19
Speaker 8: and we just respond to that, you know, because it's
1:57:22
Speaker 8: the thing we're most used to. The marketing team, as
1:57:24
Speaker 8: you termed it, those are the brokers, Those are the
1:57:26
Speaker 8: ones who come out of the woodwork to spend millions
1:57:28
Speaker 8: of dollars on commercials telling you you got to buy
1:57:31
Speaker 8: gold and go find your jewel My favorite was this,
1:57:33
Speaker 8: probably twenty five years ago. But go find your jewelry,
1:57:35
Speaker 8: put it in this little plastic baggie, a self address,
1:57:39
Speaker 8: the addressed back to us, and we will value it
1:57:41
Speaker 8: and write you a check. And those folks are not
1:57:44
Speaker 8: I always tell people think about it this way. If
1:57:46
Speaker 8: gold was really the greatest investment that they are saying
1:57:48
Speaker 8: it is, then why are they taking this money and
1:57:50
Speaker 8: spending it on commercials to get you to sell your
1:57:52
Speaker 8: gold versus just buying gold themselves. They're just trying to
1:57:56
Speaker 8: create the activity.
1:57:58
Speaker 1: Well, I recall that one of the cases I worked
1:58:01
Speaker 1: on when I was practicing law in Chicago was a
1:58:02
Speaker 1: real estate investment trust case, and we had a huge
1:58:05
Speaker 1: room full of lawyers because it was a massive, massive litigation,
1:58:09
Speaker 1: multi multi million dollar case. It must have been twenty twenty
1:58:11
Speaker 1: five lawyers in the room, and they asked the group,
1:58:14
Speaker 1: you know, what would you most likely want to put
1:58:16
Speaker 1: your money in in terms of an investment, And people
1:58:19
Speaker 1: had raised their hands and mentioned a couple of different things,
1:58:23
Speaker 1: one of which which is mentioned in the article Art
1:58:26
Speaker 1: and I scratched my head over investing in art, like
1:58:29
Speaker 1: who determines the value of art? Seems to be a
1:58:31
Speaker 1: rather subjective thing. But I don't think that's a prudent idea.
1:58:35
Speaker 1: But real estate was the point that the guys were making. Listen,
1:58:38
Speaker 1: and there was a period in time when every single
1:58:41
Speaker 1: person would raise their hand and said, real estate is
1:58:43
Speaker 1: the place to put your money. Well, that happens to
1:58:45
Speaker 1: be one of the places where these young wealthy investors
1:58:47
Speaker 1: are putting their money.
1:58:49
Speaker 7: Yeah.
1:58:50
Speaker 8: And another thing to bear in mind is your people
1:58:52
Speaker 8: in buying real estate right now, and I'm sure there's
1:58:54
Speaker 8: many people out there trying to do this nodding along
1:58:56
Speaker 8: with me. You can't get the returns out of it
1:58:58
Speaker 8: that you used to because real estate at a peak.
1:59:00
Speaker 8: If I've got a property and apartment building or whatever,
1:59:02
Speaker 8: I want to squeeze as much money out of as
1:59:04
Speaker 8: I possibly can currently I can do that. That means
1:59:07
Speaker 8: I have to accept as a buyer, I got to
1:59:09
Speaker 8: accept a cap rate in the maybe four to five
1:59:10
Speaker 8: percent range.
1:59:11
Speaker 7: That's not great.
1:59:12
Speaker 8: You know, I might as well just leave it in
1:59:13
Speaker 8: an S and P five hundred index fund and get
1:59:15
Speaker 8: more than that and ride the volatility out I would
1:59:18
Speaker 8: Historically speaking and real estate investors usually look for a
1:59:21
Speaker 8: six to seven percent rate of return. That's basically a
1:59:24
Speaker 8: calculation that says, if I'm gonna throw a bunch of
1:59:26
Speaker 8: money at this and deal with tenants and pay rent,
1:59:28
Speaker 8: how much comes out versus if I just invested in
1:59:30
Speaker 8: some traditional type of thing. Usually we want six to
1:59:33
Speaker 8: seven percent. Nowadays you got to accept.
1:59:35
Speaker 7: Four to five.
1:59:36
Speaker 1: Wow, And everything involving real estate is getting more expensive.
1:59:40
Speaker 1: Other than just acquisition costs, the cost of maintenance and
1:59:43
Speaker 1: upkeep has gone through the roof with inflationary pressures, just
1:59:46
Speaker 1: like everything else.
1:59:47
Speaker 8: Absolutely, And here's another bullet point I've come across recently,
1:59:50
Speaker 8: a property management company, if you don't want to have
1:59:52
Speaker 8: anything to do with it, if you just want to
1:59:54
Speaker 8: put the money in it and ignore it. It used
1:59:56
Speaker 8: to be you'd pay a property management company ten percent.
1:59:58
Speaker 8: Now they're asking twelve to fifteen percent. If you are
2:00:01
Speaker 8: a brand new investor, WHOA.
2:00:03
Speaker 1: That is an inflationary reality as well, taking the well
2:00:06
Speaker 1: and taking the shine off of that being an investment opportunity.
2:00:10
Speaker 7: That's why I'm making any more of it, though, Brian Thomas.
2:00:13
Speaker 1: I understand that, well, that's where we have you, Brian James,
2:00:15
Speaker 1: trying to keep us on the state straighten their or
2:00:17
Speaker 1: get yourself a financial planner to help you through these matters.
2:00:19
Speaker 1: If it's not making any sense to you, or you
2:00:21
Speaker 1: want some guidance, maybe someone to just help you keep
2:00:23
Speaker 1: in line. It's a good thing. Brian James will do
