- 0:00Speaker 1: Look, here's something else stupid. The numbers eight two one
- 0:02Speaker 1: nine six a two one dou WUTV and just reading
- 0:05Speaker 1: here on the six to ten double UTV and Facebook
- 0:07Speaker 1: page at uh uh. You know Trump's trying to do.
- 0:10Speaker 1: He wants to build the ballroom, rehabilitate the uh the
- 0:13Speaker 1: the Lincoln Center, the uh uh. He's got the Lincoln
- 0:17Speaker 1: Memorial reflecting pool that he wanted to paint and spiff up.
- 0:21Speaker 1: And well apparently now there's a lawsuit over that. Painting
- 0:25Speaker 1: the daggone swimming pool merits a lawsuit. A group seeks
- 0:30Speaker 1: an emergency intervention to stop the project, arguing the blue
- 0:33Speaker 1: paint on the pool would have would alter the pool's
- 0:37Speaker 1: historic character.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 0:39Speaker 1: I just saw that. I just kind of went, is there, seriously,
- 0:42Speaker 1: is there nothing he can do that does not result
- 0:45Speaker 1: in a lawsuit? No, how ridiculous. Oh my gosh, you
- 0:51Speaker 1: can't paint the swimming pool that will that will demean history.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. We need help, all of us collectively.
- 1:01Speaker 1: We just need a whole big bunch of help. All right.
- 1:04Speaker 1: So the Brian Steele thing talked a little bit about
- 1:06Speaker 1: that during the Blazer Show, going to talk about it
- 1:07Speaker 1: some more because I just I find it offensively humorous.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Can you find something offensively humorous? Because I do?
- 1:15Speaker 2: That's my entire comedic outlook online.
- 1:20Speaker 1: The people that started this online petition, I don't even
- 1:24Speaker 1: know how many signatures they have at this point. I
- 1:27Speaker 1: would love to see how many of them are actually
- 1:29Speaker 1: legitimate signatures and not one guy in his basement with
- 1:31Speaker 1: four hundred and seventy five email accounts to remove Brian
- 1:37Speaker 1: Steele as President day of LFOP Lodge numeronwebe. Here's the problem, people.
- 1:50Speaker 1: The FOP, the Fraternal Organization of Police Lodge number nine
- 1:55Speaker 1: or Fraternal Order of Police Lodge number nine is not
- 1:58Speaker 1: a government office. They don't have offices in city Hall.
- 2:03Speaker 1: They are not governed by politicians. It is a member
- 2:09Speaker 1: organization for law enforcement officers in Central Ohio. You can
- 2:15Speaker 1: have all the petitions in the world. You can have
- 2:19Speaker 1: Joe Biden's auto pen sign it. It doesn't matter. Your
- 2:26Speaker 1: petition is meaningless. It's hilarious because it's meaningless. But you're
- 2:31Speaker 1: so sincere about it that going. And if we just
- 2:34Speaker 1: had an online petition in a gofund me account, we
- 2:36Speaker 1: could make the world a better place. And here's the deal.
- 2:44Speaker 1: The fact that it exists is a wonderful, beautiful, completely
- 2:50Speaker 1: clear illustration of one fact about you and your supporters
- 2:57Speaker 1: and the people who signed it, and that is people
- 3:00Speaker 1: don't get it, and you never do. You just think
- 3:07Speaker 1: you get online and start a petition, you can do anything. Hey, hey,
- 3:10Speaker 1: ho ho. That's not the way life works. There's a
- 3:17Speaker 1: little lesson in reality. I know. Have you seen the
- 3:21Speaker 1: petition lately? Do you see how many people assigned it?
- 3:23Speaker 1: Zach No, I've never even looked at it. You haven't
- 3:26Speaker 1: looked at the remove him petition? Yeah, I was too
- 3:29Speaker 1: goofy to pay attention to. To be honest, it's just it is.
- 3:31Speaker 1: It is. It is so again, it's so illustrative of
- 3:34Speaker 1: the fact that you just you don't grasp it. You're
- 3:39Speaker 1: the same people that think that, you know, if if
- 3:42Speaker 1: you just if you just talk to Ran, everything could
- 3:47Speaker 1: work out. You don't get the realities of life. You
- 3:53Speaker 1: live in some idealistic, juvenile minded little utopia. And you're funny.
- 3:59Speaker 1: And it makes me feel bad that you're funny, because
- 4:01Speaker 1: I feel bad for laughing at you, because I really do, seriously,
- 4:03Speaker 1: truly want better for you. I want you to understand
- 4:09Speaker 1: things like grown up people, like educated grown up people,
- 4:12Speaker 1: like educated, involved, grown up people. I don't want you
- 4:16Speaker 1: to go through life with some naive, childlike mind. I
- 4:22Speaker 1: feel bad for you, and I feel guilty for laughing
- 4:27Speaker 1: at you, but you are funny. I'm just saying, was
- 4:32Speaker 1: that what I'm calling? To call me a name and
- 4:34Speaker 1: not want to talk to me, just asking, because that's
- 4:37Speaker 1: usually how I good. No, I don't want to be rude.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I think it was somebody who was five o'clock somewhere,
- 4:42Speaker 1: but it's been five o'clock somewhere real time. That's okay,
- 4:47Speaker 1: five am somewhere, dude. So anyway, I just I it's
- 4:52Speaker 1: it's laughable. And there's the one I posted on my
- 4:55Speaker 1: Facebook page, which is you know, yeah, it's tongue in
- 4:58Speaker 1: cheek Brian and his puppies. The picture has puppies, but
- 5:07Speaker 1: it's just the opposite, just in support of Brian Steele,
- 5:11Speaker 1: and it's meaningless, sue, but it is a it is
- 5:15Speaker 1: a raspberry being thrown at the people. I just I
- 5:19Speaker 1: can't believe, and I can't believe the media, by the way,
- 5:22Speaker 1: is taking it seriously. Media outlets, television stations are reporting
- 5:26Speaker 1: this thing as if it's significant a petition is being
- 5:30Speaker 1: circulated online to remove Forra Turnal Order Police Brian Steel president.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Stop reporting it on a serious basis like it's something real.
- 5:41Speaker 1: It's not. Again, it is meaningless. I did have one
- 5:45Speaker 1: person that I exchanged a message with on Facebook today.
- 5:47Speaker 1: He goes, you know, the Ohio Police Officers Training Association.
- 5:51Speaker 1: We got some standards and practices issues there. I forget
- 5:53Speaker 1: the term use that need to be addressed. And he's right,
- 5:56Speaker 1: he's absolutely right. Hand up and I said, you know,
- 6:00Speaker 1: that's not negating that. The problem is if people on
- 6:05Speaker 1: this other side of the fence are trying to make
- 6:08Speaker 1: the president of the Fraternal Order of Police appear to
- 6:10Speaker 1: be you know, weak or unwanted, unrespected, whatever, it makes
- 6:15Speaker 1: it hard for him to get anything done, including fixing
- 6:19Speaker 1: those issues that you're talking about. And he responded back, well,
- 6:22Speaker 1: I've been issued since you know, he before he was
- 6:25Speaker 1: in his You're right, you're right, So that's something you
- 6:30Speaker 1: would probably want to address. I have to assume you
- 6:32Speaker 1: are a member of the organization and therefore a member
- 6:35Speaker 1: of law enforcement. Go address him. You want me to
- 6:39Speaker 1: put you together, I'll get him on the phone with you.
- 6:41Speaker 1: If you need to, but every fifteen seconds it's like
- 6:46Speaker 1: he's putting out another fire. It's a little difficult sometimes
- 6:50Speaker 1: to do that. Now, have you ever seen anybody else?
- 6:53Speaker 1: You know, for years when I was a youngster, Dewey
- 6:56Speaker 1: was FOP president, and there have not been a large
- 7:02Speaker 1: number of people in that capacity during my lifetime, what
- 7:05Speaker 1: maybe seven six or seven. Brian's like the most visible
- 7:11Speaker 1: that I've seen since Dewey. He really is. He's always
- 7:17Speaker 1: out there and perhaps in the most turbulent time that
- 7:21Speaker 1: has ever existed for law enforcement in my lifetime. Not
- 7:28Speaker 1: only is this, you know, back in the sixties the
- 7:30Speaker 1: fuzz man, you're the pigs man. Yeah, okay, but the
- 7:36Speaker 1: people who acted like that were generally frowned upon by society.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Today they're highlighted as cultural heroes and featured as someone
- 7:44Speaker 1: you should know on the six o'clock news. Come on, man,
- 7:47Speaker 1: the world's different, it's a different place, and I, for
- 7:52Speaker 1: one thinking he does a fine job of making sure
- 7:54Speaker 1: that we the public know things that we need to
- 7:57Speaker 1: know going on in and around and our law enforcement officers.
- 8:03Speaker 1: So I gladly signed that petition as soon as I
- 8:05Speaker 1: saw it. Today, it's on my Facebook page I encourage
- 8:07Speaker 1: everybody to sign it. Just whatever numbers they have on
- 8:10Speaker 1: their cute little petition, just dwarf them. Just dwarf those numbers.
- 8:16Speaker 1: If you got to do it by having four hundred
- 8:17Speaker 1: and twenty five email A counsels living in your mom's basement,
- 8:20Speaker 1: so be it. Because that's that's just as believable as
- 8:25Speaker 1: they're saying. Anyway, A two one nine eighty six, number
- 8:29Speaker 1: e two one WTV and Rick is standing by. I'm
- 8:31Speaker 1: assuming about the the Brian Steele issue. Rick, you're on
- 8:33Speaker 1: six to n WTVN just.
- 8:38Speaker 2: How you how you're framing all those bosos. But true,
- 8:43Speaker 2: we can't get them to go to the academy and
- 8:45Speaker 2: see what it takes to become a law enforcement person
- 8:49Speaker 2: and what you know, do some ride alongs and see
- 8:51Speaker 2: see what their lives are like.
- 8:54Speaker 1: I encourage everybody, especially quite frankly, people running for a
- 8:57Speaker 1: political office, all of them, all of them should do
- 9:01Speaker 1: ride alongs with the law enforcement officers in that community.
- 9:06Speaker 1: Come out and I'm talking, you know, come on out
- 9:08Speaker 1: to nineteen man, come out, come out there on eight
- 9:11Speaker 1: or ten on my beloved West Side. Experience a Friday
- 9:14Speaker 1: night in a patrol car. See what these officers are
- 9:16Speaker 1: up against. Before you become somebody who's elected to office,
- 9:19Speaker 1: who controls their budget and the rules under which they live,
- 9:22Speaker 1: come out and see the life they have to live
- 9:24Speaker 1: on your behalf. Did I lose Rick? So? I saw
- 9:32Speaker 1: one line drop and Rick go at the same time.
- 9:35Speaker 1: What did you do? Did you like to push a
- 9:37Speaker 1: nuclear button in there? What did you go Iranian on me?
- 9:40Speaker 1: Is that what you did? I did not because I
- 9:42Speaker 1: don't need that Iranian stuff. Man, I mean, you're rich
- 9:47Speaker 1: in uranium back here. I will send bombers over your
- 9:50Speaker 1: studio to make sure you do not ever nuke my
- 9:53Speaker 1: callers again. Rick Ay just wants you know that wasn't me.
- 9:56Speaker 1: That was something Zact did, and he did it intentionally
- 9:58Speaker 1: because that's how he is. I'mating, but I'm going to what. Yeah, No,
- 10:03Speaker 1: you're not. I posted, by the way, I gotta say
- 10:05Speaker 1: this before I left Lee too. I posted over the
- 10:08Speaker 1: week in a movie, a twenty sixteen movie. I had
- 10:12Speaker 1: never even heard of this movie. Eddie Murphy stars in
- 10:17Speaker 1: this movie, and it's nothing like anything Eddie Murphy ever did.
- 10:21Speaker 1: Have you seen mister Church? No, I don't even I
- 10:27Speaker 1: have never even heard of that I encourage you highly.
- 10:32Speaker 1: It's a serious movie. I was so impressed by his
- 10:41Speaker 1: performance watching him, especially his mannerisms, his his face, and
- 10:48Speaker 1: he grows old in this movie. And again it's it
- 10:53Speaker 1: is it's a serious movie. There's no uh, there's no
- 10:55Speaker 1: yuck yuckin. There's a couple of chuckles around there, but
- 10:59Speaker 1: no yuck yuckin. Mister Church twenty sixteen. I watched it.
- 11:03Speaker 1: It's streaming on Prime video. Very very much. Encourage you
- 11:10Speaker 1: to watch it, just saying it's yeah. I still don't
- 11:15Speaker 1: understand the premise of how he was connected to the
- 11:20Speaker 1: guy who set it all up. Okay, so I'm going
- 11:24Speaker 1: to tell you that ahead of time. That's the one
- 11:28Speaker 1: missing element to the story for me. But his performance,
- 11:32Speaker 1: great storyline, great the young actors, the kids, wonderful job.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Very very good movie. Is this a newer movie or
- 11:41Speaker 1: twenty sixteen? Man, it is ten years old and I've
- 11:45Speaker 1: never even heard of it, much less watched it. It's yeah, yeah, good,
- 11:52Speaker 1: good Sunday afternoon movie. If you want to watch music
- 11:57Speaker 1: time already. Man, I didn't even get to rant today.
- 12:03Speaker 1: That's just wrong.
- 12:04Speaker 2: Is sorry?
- 12:05Speaker 1: You got plenty of time this week? That is so
- 12:08Speaker 1: very wrong. The next headline was Bill over Biden allegations
- 12:13Speaker 1: X oh my gosh. Accelerates, but I don't have time
- 12:16Speaker 1: to get into the story.
