• 1:42
  Speaker 3: one that really cared one way or the other. People
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: get all worked up about it, but it is always
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: weird when it gets dark, you know, on that first Sunday,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: like I did yesterday at about five thirty, and then
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: it was daylight when I left my house this morning.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: But you get used to it coming up a little
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: bit later. On Charleston, her or Amy Schulder good One
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: is here, Questions, comments, concerns for the mayor. Now is
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: your time to talk one on one with her? Of course,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: you know we just came off a great weekend of
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: activities here in the valley. I was at the Capital
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Market on Saturday for the Mac and Cheese Cookoff. I'll
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: be back there next Saturday for the Biscuits and Gravy Bowl,
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: and then I'll pick up and head to Nitro for
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: the Wagon Tails and Nitro Ales Chili Chili Cookoff and
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Beer Festival. It's a rough life. I leave, Danny, Danny
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Jones is here. It's a rough life I live. Man.
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: Can I say something about the mac and cheese?
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: You can say whatever you want, buddy.
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: That was for the Language Center, Rock Jones, Laurence Jones.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: A third that was my brother.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and I did not know that till you
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: told me that a couple of years ago. Yeah yeah,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: great turnout over there. The judge's choice was the folks
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: at the Roughner Drew McClanahan, and the the people's choice
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: was the folks at Coco's Great Eatery in downtown Charleston. So, uh,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: about twenty I'm gonna guess twenty five twenty six entries
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: down there.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: There was a something that's in the book. My sister's
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: named Laura. We had a lady that worked for us intermittently.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: Her name was Laura Lawrence. My brother had a really
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: bad speech impediment. He ended up with a radio voice,
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: asked Steve Bishop. But he didn't understand. He couldn't make
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: out why he was called Laura, she was called Lauren,
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: she was called Laura. So he called Laura Hamilton God God,
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: and that name stuck with her. A tombstone, really, and
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: it's in the book and so. But he wound up
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: when I was a kid, like, was he older than
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: you were? Younger? Then younger?
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Okay, young younger thing okay.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: He took his life when he was sixty twenty sixteen.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: But I would go to Stross Memorial Hospital. Back then
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: it was just a circle, you know, you can park
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: in the circle, and right inside there was a door,
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: and there was a guy named Jess Barton who later
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: became a really good customer in my restaurant. And he
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: had Lawrence in there teaching him how to speak. And
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: it was really really abusive. It sounded abusive, you know,
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: I'm sure it was just the way it's supposed to go.
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: But Lawrence turned out to have a radio voice. He
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: had jobs at radio station.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: It's funny how that works. I mean, James Earl Jones
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: is probably one of the best examples of that. I mean,
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: James Earl Jones could barely speak until he was like
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: ten or twelve years old. His speech impediment was so
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: was so bad. And then I mean then then, you
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: know what, he became so well.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: Not that maybe this is not a good example, even
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: though I remember the night the first the first night
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: the guy got elected back in seventy two, Joe Biden.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: He had a uh, he was a stunter or really
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: bad stuff, very bad. Yeah, yeah, and uh, he had
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: a great voice until you know, until he un till
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: he became president.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Well, and a lot of a lot of things after
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: he became president. Danny Jones here, of course, No, you know,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Danny's with us every Monday, but we kind of flipped
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: things around. On the first Monday the month, coast mayor
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Goodwin will be in a little bit.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: Like people call and ask her question.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: They text more than they call. But yeah, no, sometimes
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: we we do. We do. Here's what I here's my
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: pet peeve about the whole thing. Danny, And I've said
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: this before. In this world of social media, everybody's quick
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: to criticize. They'll they'll light up you know, our our
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: social media, they'll light up you know, the television stations,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: the gazette, mayor or whatever. But the mayor comes on
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: this show the first Monday of every month and is
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: wide open. She sits in the seat where you are now,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: and she has no idea who's calling, she has no
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: idea what the text are going to be. She'll come
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: in with a couple of things she wants to mention,
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: of course, but nothing after that. And these these keyboard
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: commandos won't call well. And and that that just infuriates me,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: because here's an opportunity, you know, for you to talk
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: if you've got issues. And I don't care whether it's Amy,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: it could be any mayor for that matter, here's your
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: opportunity to talk, and they choose not to.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: And as mayor, I was on here for four years
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: exactly and the same situation. Now they call the office
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: and they just had to speak with the mayor. Well,
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: the problem with that was is that I'm going to
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: give them right.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Back, Yeah to the people who actually I don't mean
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: that in a bad way, but I know you can't
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: you can't necessarily take care of the pothole over on
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: such and such strand the mayor.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: I bet she's gonna say, call my office what she
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: always does, Call my office, leave a message, and I'll
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: tend to it when I got back. It would be
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: tend to anyway, Yeah, if if I mean, I would
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: assume it's tend to anyway.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean somebody when you're the mayor of
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: the largest city in West Virginia. I mean, and it's
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: you know, you're not going to be able to, as
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: I said, you know, go after every stray dog that's
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: running through South Hills and everything else. You're gonna have
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: other people to do that. This past weekend, though, Dandy,
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: and this is something I want to ask you about
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: as a former mayor. This past weekend and every weekend
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: in Charleston, especially during the you know, the good weather months,
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: there are always so many activities going on. There's everything
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: at Capital Market, downtown, Slack Plaza, and really that's true
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: the entire valley. But yet people complain that there's nothing
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: to do. I mean, how is that possible if.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: You're seventy five years old, there's not.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Well I get that, I but no, I think they're.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: Funny to do in this city, and I think the
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: mayor has done a good job with that. She bought
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: them regot it back. She had the money to do
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: it with and we didn't have it, but she bought
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: the regatta back and we still have the festival.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Right, festival Festival that and Festivfall. You know, you got
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: the two different thing. And last week, of course we
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: started talking about the Christmas Parade because that's always, you know,
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: the big thing, and they have to have the I
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: mean within the announcement. I think we had Matt Sutton
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: on the show on I think it was Thursday, and
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: they made announcement on Wednesday. They already had like twenty
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: entrants by the time twelve hours later Sudden comes on
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: the show and we've already got twenty some odd interests.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: And she bought it back at night, which is where
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: it was when I was a little boy. We used
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: to go down We used to go down Charleston at
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: night and watch the Christmas Parade. And I think that
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: was a good move well.
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: And I remember when it was first brought back and
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: in her administration took a lot of grief for that,
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Danny because they said, you know, it's a school night,
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: so I'd say probably seventy percent of the and that's
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: just an arbitrary figure. I'm throwing out just sixty seventy
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: percent of all the Christmas parades are held at night.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, what's the I mean, you know, here's the thing, Danny,
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: You're not going to please everybody. We had the big
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: blow up over trick or Treating last week. You know,
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: because of inclement weather that was expected. They originally Knaw
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: County opted to move it to Thursday night. That was
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: that's when they were going to have it, I should
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: say originally on Thursday night, but then they were expecting
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: really bad weather, so it got moved ahead the Halloween night,
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: which is when a lot of the you know, I
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: live in Putnam County. Ours was always on that night,
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: and people, you know, said, well, you're going to go
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: head to head with high school football, but on Thursday night,
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: you're going head to head with middle school football. So
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: you can't make you can't make everybody.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: One of the county commissioners running for the.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: State's Center, Yeah, Lance Wheeler, Yeah.
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: I wonder now are people filing for his job.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: One person has already filed. I've Jared Page. I've already
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: interviewed him on the air. That's the one that the
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: one person I know of tell me.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: There's a contest going on in Massachusetts and there's a
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: young man who's forty seven. He's a congressman named Seth Moulten,
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: and the senator is Ed Markey. I can't stand him.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: They're both liberal Democrats. But Ed Markey, if that's his
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: first name, I can't remember it. You know, it's eighty
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: years old. That's too old. I think seventy five is
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: old enough. I mean, I think I'm too old to
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: run for office. I'm here for advice if anybody wants it.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: If you want, I'll share my experience with you privately,
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: you know, if that will help you. If you want
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: me to serve on the board, I might do that.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: What is too old to serve? And I know it
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: depends on the job. I mean, you know, being a
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: congressman because of all the travel and everything, it's not
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: necessarily like being the mayor of a small town. I
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: get that, But is there a certain a certain age?
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: Seventy five that's my age. Okay, that's the age I pick.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: Okay, you picked seventy I picked seventy five. I will
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: know that all seventy five year olds are not created equal, though,
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: I mean there's some well grass, yeah, I mean in
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: there's nineties.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, But I think that there's other people in Iowa
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: that could replace him, that are in there that are
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: not quite that old. Poor old strom Thurman. He was there,
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: he was one hundred and he couldn't even carry on
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: a conversation.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Let's and let's face it with all due respect. And
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: in this state, you know, we we put the name
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: of Robert Bird up there in a in a reverent place.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: And I get that Robert Bird served way too long.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: In my opinion, he was not as effective. Look, there's
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: no bigger Ronald Reagan fan than me. Reagan by eighty six,
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: eighty seven was out.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: I told you a little. Well, he got elected at seventy.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Right, yeah.
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: But of course the now this comes from his son,
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: who I can't stand at. Michael atheists, No, the atheist
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: Stephen No, ron.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: O ron Reagan Junior. Yeah, I'm sorry.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: He said that his father was never the same after
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: he got shot, and I don't believe he was right.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: Well, that'll do it.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: So, but he would go back and forth I mean
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: he would like when he got into it over there
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: with Gorbachaw and then then went back and then Gorbashaw
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: buckled right, and.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: We need to take a break here real quick. I
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: want to hold you over though it's nine to twenty.

  Speaker 5: to seventy six, very hedonistic activities. Did I write about?
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: He said, you should that. There should have been a link.
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: There should have been a trend of a period, like
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: how did that guy come to run for sheriff Kennhall
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: County the transformation? Yeah, and get elected multiple times?
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, I mean to the I.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: Could have been re elected charity, I mean.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: A different offices.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, but I ran for the House that year
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: and there were twenty four candidates running for twelve feet.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: I came in first.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: See. Here's the thing about it is. And I was
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: talking to a friend of mine the other day and
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: we were talking about political aspirations, and he said, I
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: would love to run for office, he said, but I don't,
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: and especially in the age of the internet now, he said,
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: I don't want to have to go back and answer
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: because I got suspended in fifth grade for cheating on
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: a spelling test or something. Because everything is out there now. Well,
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: but I have a lot of respect for political figures.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: I don't care whether the Republican Democrat, liberal conservative who
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: come out and say, look, I haven't always been the
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: best of Well.
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: No, Well, the one thing the drug investigation taught me
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: because my file was leaked, you know, a federal file,
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: an FBI file was leaked by a police chief in
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: this city and the head of the drug bion. They
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: couldn't prosecute me. They leaked to my file made national
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: news baden. It just doesn't get better with age. Put
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: it out there. If it's something you can't stand open
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: a restaurant.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: See, I remember, you know, back in the days of
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Bill Clinton and that that whole remember the whole debacle.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Now nobody would care if you said that that you know,
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: you smoke pot. But back in the nineties that was
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: kind of a thing. And then he said I didn't.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, man, just just say you did.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: And he lied about Jennifer Flowers.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: He lied about a lot of things.
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: He said that in the deposition. He said that he
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: was with her once when he had an affair with her,
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: and when he was married to Hillary and Miss Arkansas.
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: He got he had his way with her in the
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: back of an ambulance. I mean, I'm not kidding you.
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: And he was married to Hillary and she had lied
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: about it, and she came out and she said, look
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: it happened. I want to get it all my chest
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: and there it is, so they got it was in
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: the back of a car. I think I think I
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: thought it was an ambulance.
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't matter at this point, but.
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: He was a hounddogg you know. Marjorie Taylor Green.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about Marjorie Taylor Green. She was
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: on Bill Maher on Friday night. I have not seen
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: it yet. I plan to watch it. She's on the
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: View tomorrow. You saw her on Bill Maher. What do
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: you think of Marjorie Taylor Green on Bill Maher?
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: Very impressed, very impressed.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: She did what impressed you about her?
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: She's matured so much, and I think she's mainstreamed herself.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: If I lived in her district, I'd vote.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: For It's what I mean. And she's at odds with
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: the Trump administration now on certain things. And I do
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: just what sort of a bizarro world, though, Danny, do
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: we live in that? I mean, You're like, oh my god.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: Marjorie Taylor Green started to make sense. I mean, are
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: these the are we know? Are we in the end? Days?
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Here?
• 22:00
  Speaker 9: Now?
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: She changed?
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: Did she really?
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah? She's changed. She's a different person and she's mature
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: and I like her. I mean, really, what did.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: She do so so well? Because I haven't seen it,
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: talked to a friend of mine this morning. He did
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: see it. He said it was kind of contentious back
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: and forth between Bill Maher and her What did you do?
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: Not at all?
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: Perceptions, but well they may have disagreed on some stuff, right, okay,
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: But he said she'd been invited on the show. She said,
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: I've never been invited on the show. Well, maybe your
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: staff didn't tell you.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Well, and that happens. And look, you know, and people
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: will talk crap about about Bill Maher, you know, And
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: I don't agree with him on everything. He's one of
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: my favorite comedians. I certainly don't agree with him on everything.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: But I will say this, he takes so much crap
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: from the left because he has Marjorie Taylor Green on
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: the show, because he had the Borders Are Home and
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: on the show. He says, look, I have invited AOC
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: on the show. AOC will not come on the show.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer will not come on the show. He said, yeah, right,
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: and he says the people that will come on the
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: show are these Republicans and I'm going to platform them.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: And I give him credit for that.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: Kamala, Yeah, all right, she I've read her book, Okay,
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: all right, talk about that.
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: Or it's a diary. It's just a diary about what
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: happened in those hundred seven days. I went to the
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: Speak to the Teachers Union. I got a great reception.
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: And the lady that runs it, and I can't think
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: of her name, but she's old, you are great, You're
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: gonna win all that stuff. That's what the book is,
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: and she she treashes my man, Josh Josha Heiro.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but she says she claims that Gavin that she
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: If I'm wrong about this, somebody can correct me. But
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: I think that she claims that she texted Gavin Newsom
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: and only got something to the effect of hiking we'll
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: call back, and he never did. Now, Gavin Newsom says
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: that never happened.
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: Well, and who knows, Yeah, I mean she now Jonathan
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: carl and his book said, well, the president went on
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: Joe Rogan and Kamala never did Kamala refused. Kamala didn't
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: give an interview for thirty five days. And when you
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: are running for office, you chase the microphone, you chase
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: the cameras. You want exposure. And she she she wouldn't
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: do that. That wasn't a style. And she spent a
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: billion and a.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Half dollars and still didn't get elected.
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: And she she had and she paid Oprah a million.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: What did Oprah need the money? And so what she said, BEYONCEI.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: Ten, I think she says she's going to run again.
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: So uh well, letter you think I mean, she's not
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: going anywhere. Yeah, unless they want to lose again.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: I'm not so sure that the Democratic Party. I mean,
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: this is just my opinion on the national level. I'm
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: not so sure the Democratic Party wants to win anymore
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: because they can't when they continue to prop up the
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: people that they're propping up. You can't hope that you're
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: going to get this country back by putting AOC's and
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: people like that of the world. Hey, before anybody attacks me,
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: I don't mean gender or race or anything like. That's
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about these far
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: left people are not going.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: To win they're not going to nominate a mainstream candidate
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: like Rama Manuel and my favorite stephen A or my
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: real favorite Josh Shapiro. He's to mainstream. He's a governor.
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: He does things right. You know, he sees a problem,
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: he fixes it.
• 25:50

  Speaker 3: So I was trick or treat at your place?
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Trick or treat. I you know what, I love trick
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: or treat. I have a skeleton on my front doorstep.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: We call him Slim, and he has a hat on
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: and a little scarf and a little cat. But I
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: don't get very many trick or treaters as I used to.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: I used to live on the East End and my
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: husband and I the first remember the first year we
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: moved in, the neighbors laughed at our candy and said
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: that's not enough. I was like, oh, but there's you
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: or whatever, two hundred and fifty pieces. They're like, yeah,
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: you're going to need about three times as much.
• 33:03
  Speaker 7: I said, to be go to seven eleven. And it
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: is really true. I love it so much.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: But you know what, he does such a great job
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: with the Beaten Trick or beat which is at the ballpark,
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: which we always participate in that so we have an
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: opportunity to see the kids, and we dress up every
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: year and it's so it is so incredibly fun. And
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: you know, Mayor Jones and I were just talking as
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: he was leaving about activities and things to do. You know,
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: when I became mayor six and a half m was
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: seven years ago. That's what I wanted. Vitality, vibrancy, and
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: those are the things that he was just talking about.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Another event that he'd like to see back. Me too,
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: the car Show. I hated that they left. I wish
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: they would come back, and would love it if they
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: came back.
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: Kids mess it.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: Can I interrupt you there?
• 33:47
  Speaker 9: One?
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah? Hit me.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: I want you to go on the record right now
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: because you've done it before. But I mean, but we
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: get so many and you get so much. Look and look,
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: I'll give you a crap if because I'm your friend
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: and I can do that all I do. But I
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: get this all the time. The mayor killed the car Show.
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: About show.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: I put it on the record again that the mayor
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: did not kill the car show.
• 34:11
  Speaker 7: I wanted it.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: I have all the emails and documentations to back all
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: of this up. Not you know, and Mayor Jones knows
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: this for sure. We were just talking about it. I
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: gave more money, I gave more support for the car
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: show than ever before. But the year they left, they said,
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: we ran out of volunteers, we're running out of sponsorship.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: We need seventy five thousand dollars right now to do it.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: And I said, I don't have seventy five I've got
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: thirty five thousand, and they said no, And then I
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: found out about it on the radio, I think is
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: how we found out about it. But we loved the
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: We love the car show. We'd love to have the
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Car Show back. So if anybody's out there and wants
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: to read all my emails or talk to me about it,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: I'd love it, love it, love it.
• 34:53
  Speaker 7: But I think most most of the.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Folks who are engaged and involved really no, really know
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: that we didn't want to see that go in anyhow,
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: I'll make a long, straight longer. You know, we are
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: hitting into the season of events, and not only do
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: we have and I know our chief of staff Matthew
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Sutton came on on Friday talk about the Christmas Parade
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: man oday.
• 35:12
  Speaker 7: That's the other thing.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: The applications are flying in for folks who want to
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: be in the Christmas Parade. It is our downtown real estate. Folks,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: if you own a you know, I don't care if
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: it's a coffeehouse or a men's shop shout out to
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: Tony Taylor or a bar or whatever you want. An
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: evening Christmas parade. It is kind of the big kickoff
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: to the shopping season, so it's super super super fun.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: Of course, we have Holly Jolly, which is on Black Friday.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: My mom's favorite thing to do is to come in
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: and watch the show. Nothing like your mom sitting there
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: in the front row day watching you light the Christmas
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: I'm fifty four years old and my mom still loves
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: to sit there in the front row and watch me
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: flick the It's a thing I think of parents, right
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: if your a parent or a grandparent, or you're an uncle,
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: or you have love for a child, you or have
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: raised a child, or take care of children, you love
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: watching those children have joy. My mom still comes because
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: she says, you have so much fun doing that with
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: the kids, and I do, and so that's that's also
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: super fun.
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: Coming up.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: Got a question for here for you, please tex, says
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: David Mayor, A good one. Is there any update on
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: the former Canal manufacturing site on the East End. It
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: was partially demoed with plans to turn it into Charleston Lift,
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: also known as Learning, Innovation, Food and Technology Center. The
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: partially demoed side to set dormant for over a year
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: would be a great asset for the community. If that's
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: still in the works.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, there's lots of great I will give
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: a great shout out to Mara Boggs and the Charleston
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Aarrey Alliance as they reimagine that site. Plans are still
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: certainly moving forward to transform that site, that neighborhood, and
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: that community. They know they welcomed us Dave with open
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: arms when we made this announcement many many years ago.
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: There is activity on the site and you will see,
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: you know, hopefully sooner than later. When you have large projects,
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: it takes a while. When you have large projects like
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: the Capital connector like you know, doing a twenty million
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: dollar public safety building, or when you have the mall
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: or sports conflict, it is not something that can happen
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: in just a couple of months or a year. Boy
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: oh boy, I wish I had a magic wand and
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: can make those things happen. But progress, and grand progress
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: and monumental progress comes certainly.
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: At a at a slow pace.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like me trying to lose that ten
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: pounds before the end of the year and doing it
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: during the holiday, right lose it fast, it comes back,
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: lose it slow, it stays.
• 37:38
  Speaker 7: It's kind of the same philosophy. Can you tell it?
• 37:41
  Speaker 7: Can you tell I didn't have my breakfast already?
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: This same at your side? It's nine five a day
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: Vallid Show on five eighty line, Brown Too, part by
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: Morgan to Morgan, America's largest injury law firm. All right,
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: so go serious here for a moment. The partial government
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: shutdown is going on, no signs that it's going to
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: and anytime soon. You have to actually get people in
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: the same room to talk in order for that to happen.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: That's no the story for another time, all right. So
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: on Saturday, Snap benefits, you know, official, I mean, you
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: know for now came to an end. We know about
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: the court cases and so on and so forth. But
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: as let's just say it right now, we don't know
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: what's going to happen there, but it is what it is.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: Sixteen percent of the population in the CID of West
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: Virginia received some sort of snap benefits. Many of those
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: our kids. Many of those are people that are working,
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: all right, farmers and farmers and so on and so forth.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: So let's talk about that for a moment, and let's
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: talk about what the City of Charleston is doing.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I will say that we can't do everything,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: just like the county can't do everything. But you know,
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: the county last last month, month before welcome them and
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: the Senior Services Center and handed them eighty thousand dollars
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: to help with their food and security.
• 38:59
  Speaker 7: People are hungry.
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: And you know, while you may not think it is
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: a lot on average, I think it's about one hundred
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: and eighty seven dollars.
• 39:06
  Speaker 7: It matters.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: It matters to families that are struggling, that are literally
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: putting budget plans together every month. I remember my mom
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: and dad doing the exact same thing when we were little. Right,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: you put together a family budget. This is how much
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: you have to spend. Food is something that you have
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: to have. So we know that folks are nervous about
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: their access to food. We know from the Queen Margaret
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: O'Neill in the United Way that the two to one
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: one calls that everybody talks about, right, two one one,
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: you need help to one one. They are up over
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: seven hundred last month compared to where they were in
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Augris August of this past year, and so We've talked
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: to several our providers, we talked to council members, we
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: talked to folks at the school board, folks in our
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: park and rec centers. Because I don't think people know this, Dave.
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: I know you know this because I talk about it
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: all the time. We take care of kiddos after school,
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: nights and weekends and holidays. Kids come to me by
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: the way I want them to. I mean, we have
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: excuse me, our parking rec centers open for a reason.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: It is safe place to come after school. We help
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: you with your homework, we give you a little bite
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: to eat, and we watch you. So tonight, on City
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Council's agenda, we have put in sixty thousand to the
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Canal Valley Collective that will go directly towards the purchase
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: of food for food pantries and I talking about hot
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: meals day. We're talking about food that you can take home,
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: that you can take home. And also ten thousand of
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: that is going to park in RECs for food for
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: our littles, who you know. I know they do because
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: I'm there and we see them all the time, and
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: so it's real. It is a real thing. And every
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: single snack matters. Every single supper to go matters for
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: our littles certainly, and our families, and certainly for our
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: seniors as well. So you know, access to SNAP benefits
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: its top of mine. It is what everybody continues to
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: talk about. And you know, one of our city council
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: members to say is said to me, can we do more?
• 41:05
  Speaker 7: Not right now?
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: No we can't because our job in the city is
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: to still continue to do the things that we are
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: charged with, but part of that charge is to take
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: care of our families, to make sure that then when
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: there are tough times that we go the extra miles.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: You know, kind of reminds me of COVID. By the way, Dave,
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: I never thought in a million years part of my
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: job as mayor is to hold the hands of folks
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: who are getting vaccinations. I never thought that would be
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: part of my job description.
• 41:31
  Speaker 7: Oh buddy, it is.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: Never did I think that I would sit there being
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: well a little bit, maybe tying the shoe of a
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: little guy who's at our park and rec center and saying,
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: wait a second, why don't you have socks on?
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: Where's your jacket? Did you come with gloves? That is
• 41:45
  Speaker 7: part of the job.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: Because We are a folk in West Virginia and I
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: grew up here. I know we want to take care
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: of folks. We do what we can, and this is
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: what we can do during this time. And certainly, you know,
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: I know we don't have time to get into it
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: all because you and I feel exactly the same way.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: You don't have to love me, like me or hate me.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: We need to talk. We need to make sure that
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: we're having these conversations and we're doing work for people
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: because folks in elected positions that were that's what we're
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: supposed to do. You know, gone are the days of
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: this political rhetoric. I'm over it. I'm done with it.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: Everybody is. Because I have to deal with families. I
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: have to talk to families who are coming into our
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: rec centers. I talk to families out on the street
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: who say to me, I don't know what I'm going
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: to do. I have absolutely zero idea. It is not easy,
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: and that's for sure, and I'm very blessed. But I'll
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: tell you this, there's so many of our families who
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: really need our help.
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: The problem is, though, and we'll say this and we'll
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: go to break and I'll guess more questions here for you.
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: The problem is is you say you're over the political rhetoric.
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: I say, even as a talk show host that does
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: this for four hours a day, I'm over it. Sure
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: a lot of people aren't, though, and especially and here's
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: the thing, mayor, especially.
• 42:55
  Speaker 7: If you're just sad and people are angry.
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: Well especially, I tell you who really loves it are
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: the people many of them that are in office. They
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: love it.
• 43:03
  Speaker 7: Not this woman.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: I know I'm talking about more than national Well, this
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: is what you know. They like the pod being stirred.
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: That's well.
• 43:11

• 43:13

  Speaker 3: It's about the community, Charleston Mayor Amy shult were a
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: good one. Is here all right? It's ready for a
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: few questions, Hey man, David Mayor, good one. I was
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: one of the people that criticized you about the seats
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: in the coliseum. I want to personally in public thank
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: you for getting them fixed. Much appreciate.
• 46:36
  Speaker 7: Yay, well good.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: That is coming up this week. We are going to
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: have a presidentence that we're going to have everybody come
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: in and try out the cushy seats and see them.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: So it's going to be really great. It's something that
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: we've needed for a really long period of time. When
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: the renovations were done to the coliseum in Convention Center,
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: it was something that wasn't done. And if you have
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: spent hours watching a show in.
• 46:58
  Speaker 7: Those uncomfortable chairs that were.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: Literally falling apart, please come and enjoy now forever more
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: nice big seats. And people are going to say, why
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: did you make it one color? Why did you make
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: it the because when you're in the I've learned a lot.
• 47:15
  Speaker 7: Gosh, you was, I've learned so much.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: It's because when you have the bottom bowl filled, or
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: you're having a small group or a small show, the
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: top what we'd have to buy is all those drapes
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: to kind of block out because it was before by
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: the way it.
• 47:28
  Speaker 7: Was in style back then.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: Some are pink, some are orange, some are purplely some
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: are and they were so bright it would be distracting
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: to the performers and to the audience. And so there
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: is a method behind the madness. You know, why didn't
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: you do in blue and gold? There's a reason. This
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: is what bigger stadiums are doing. We looked at them.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: We worked with the board over there to make sure
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: that they are comfortable seats, they have what they need.
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: They're clean, clean, clean, clean, and they're sturdy. So yay,
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: come and enjoy.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: Teke says. The You MUNISIP a lot of stry and
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: was shuttered in twenty twenty four, twenty three. Will any
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: details or plans be revealed for it soon?
• 48:06
  Speaker 7: Yes, that is my that is my hope.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: We had a meeting with the folks that I asked
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: that they go in to see what could be salvaged,
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: what could not be on the outer structure of the walls,
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: and what what we could do in terms of building
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: on that site. That site is really weird. The only
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: the best way I can describe it. David's kind of whippywod.
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: It's kind of termed sideway whippy.
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: That's an official architectural term.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: Stepan, It's a West Virginia whippie wood. We call my
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: mom honey honey. It's a honey term. It's a honey trick,
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: and so it doesn't really utilize to the best of
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: its ability that entire space. But we look to make
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: an announcement, and I say announcement loosely plans.
• 48:51
  Speaker 7: You know, I don't.
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: I don't have a magic wand to say this is
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: what we're going to do. Certainly we have community input,
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: but the thing that I was charged to do is
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: make sure that if we spend dollar, I get the
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: best and highest use for that dollar. And I can
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: promise you that's exactly what I'm going to do when
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: we reimagine what the municipal Auditorium should look like.
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: Texas mayor a goodwe Do you have any information on
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: the schedule for painting to the Washington Street Bridge. I
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: know it's a state bridge, but it's very important to
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: the city. It's rusting to the ground.
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: It is well that they are working on it, they
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: are fixing it. I don't right off the top of
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: my head, I don't, but if you call my office
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: three four eight eight one seven four, I'll try to
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: track that down for you.
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: Any thought of bringing back the Kenaw County Fair maybe
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: in having any Cata or Coonskin that'd be more of
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: a county Commission.
• 49:31
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but I mean listen.
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: I think that one thing that we do extremely well,
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: which unfortunately a lot of cities and counties don't do
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: well across the state, is we have such a great,
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: close working relationship with them. Certainly I would love it
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: right after we get the car shop back.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, nine fifty seven, I see what you did there.
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: The day Dolland Show on five eighty Live is brought
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: to you part by Live Healthy West Virginia presented by
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: WVU Medicine. It's a podcast promoting healthier lifestyles than to
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: be on the state. Check avilatest episode's wv metro news
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: dot com the podcast menu.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: Also, I would be remiss if I didn't say supplemental
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: leaf collection is coming up. So I started when I
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: was mayor because I didn't believe that we were doing
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: a good enough job doing customer service. My job is
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: customer service. I put a system in and it's called cueler.
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: You call my office, I write it down, it's on
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: the computer.
• 50:20
  Speaker 7: You get a number. Not long gone are the pink
• 50:22
  Speaker 7: stickies that.
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Say why you are out? TJ called and he wants
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: a pothole fix. Well, now it's put into the system
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: in the system. This time of year, we have so
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: many leaf pickup collections. We are one of the only
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: cities that actually do supplemental leaf collection. If I say
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: supplemental one more time, I win a prize back of
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: the office, often as Stintson, we'll give it to me.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: So supplemental leaf collection bag leaves get picked up on
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: trash day, no limits. Rake leaves once a week or
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: twice a season, weather permitting. That doesn't mean if you
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: rake them all towards your driveway, I'm coming to get
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: them tomorrow. That doesn't always happen. So I just allow
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: that to sink in during these last thirty seconds that
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: we have, supplemental leaf collection begins.
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: And real quick, I know you were out testing, not
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: you personally, but I mean, knowing you, you probably were
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: the salt trucks. The salt trucks.
• 51:17
  Speaker 7: I know how to do salt trucks.
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: Brian Hughes, I know.
• 51:19
  Speaker 7: I do britten in them many many a year.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: Brian Hughes tells me meteorologists Brian Hughes, that we're going
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: to have snow next Monday. Now, granted it's November and
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: it's way too we're not talking to accumulation or anything
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: like that. But it will be here before you know it.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: Give me about twenty seconds on we.
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: We stocked up on salt, salt, salt. My dad still
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: is a farmer's almanac guy, and he still believes in it.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: He makes sure that we have enough salt. Again, I'm
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: fifty four of my parents. Do you have enough salt?
• 51:46
