  Speaker 1: Chuck Douglas in the Power Hour six ten WTVN Michael
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Jackson vote music there appropriate As I'm reading this story
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: about the American Music Awards last night, and I watched
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: a little video here. Did you watch that, Zach? Did you?
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I haven't since Dick Clark was alive, I haven't.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: I can't remember it. Yeah, I ever watching a whole
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: It's been a long time.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, me too. I don't know. The awards shows just
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: don't have any any drawl for me anymore. I used
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: to be a big fan. I used to really love watching,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: but I'm just I don't know. I'm so disconnected. I
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: don't go see movies, so the Academy Awards don't matter
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: to me. I don't really listen to much in the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: way of modern music, so the Grammys don't matter to me.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: America Music Awards don't matter.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Now I will watch like I won't watch the Oscars,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: but I'll see who won and who the contenders were,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: just to see if they're good movies to watch later.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: I just I'm reading over all the winners from the
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: AMA's last night, and most of them I don't recognize. Yeah,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: there's a few in there. G Gay I recognized Billie
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Eilish who just kicked, but I do recognize her name.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I don't think i'd know one of her songs if
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I heard it, but I do recognize her name. I
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: was watching a video here Rod Stewart performing oh and
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Rod Stewart has never been particularly an attractive man. I mean,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I'm just being honest. He's not pretty, but for his age,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: he's looking pretty good. He was moving pretty good. He
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: was singing okay. He can't hit those notes obviously at
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: whatever he is in one hundred and four years old
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: or whatever, he was singing okay. If I were producing sound,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: I think I would have brought up the he was
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: doing forever young. I would have brought up the background
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: vocalist more, especially on those parts where when he recorded
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the song he sang stronger, you know, for forever Young,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: he wasn't. He didn't have that force, so I would
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: have brought the background vocals up a little bit more.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: But all in all, well, not bad for an old dude.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: He's doing okay. And I guess one of the reasons
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I watched that a couple of times was because of
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the news with Billy Joel over the weekend canceling all
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: future concert dates because of this apparent brain disease that
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: he has. I think probably more appropriately described as a
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: neurological disease, but they've been calling it a brain disease,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: which breaks my heart because I billy Joel has gone
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: from Rocky Balboa to Orson Wells and maintained his popularity
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: and can still fill stadiums, and it just makes me
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: kind of sad. So many of the uh the whole
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you know, Aerosmith pulling the plug with Steven Tyler just
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: can't do it anymore. And all these guys that we
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: were looking at a couple of years ago, going how
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: are they doing this into their seventies, Well, they're starting
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: to They are starting to wane.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Mick and are still there.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Keith Richards died in nineteen seventy four. No one has
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: told him, Yes, nobody's told him yet it might need
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to breathe anymore.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's they're about the only ones.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: But I mean ever, yeah, but even Jagger on this
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: last two or even Jagger, they were like taking him
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: off stage and he'd rest a couple of songs before
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: he came back out. So even he is starting to
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: slow down. And uh, you know, they've had incredible lives,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: incredible careers. But I guess all things come to an end,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: and uh, I don't know. Just I watch it. I'm
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I'm glad Rod Stewart looked pretty good last night. But
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: as I was watching, I was thinking, Okay, yeah, it's
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: starting to uh, it's starting to happen. Sad time moves
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: on waits for no man as they say. So the
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Apple thing, and you're an Apple guy, maybe you can tell.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Me, sure, what are we talking about?
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: First of all, capitalization. If I want to lock caps,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I can't. I've tried holding the cap thing and it
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: only does it for one letter then goes back to
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: the lower case. I've tried double clicking it. It doesn't
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: do anything I have. You can't lock the caps on
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: this thing. Secondly, the charging. When I plug in my
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: phone at night, I wanted to charge. I do not
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: want it to be optimized so that it gets to
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the full charge by whatever time my alarm is set for.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: But that's what it does. So if it's you know,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: ten thirty and I plug in the phone and it's
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: at seventy percent, it's optimized so it will be charged
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: by four thirty am or whenever I'm waking up. I
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: just wanted to charge all the way as quickly as possible,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: so if something happens in the middle of the night,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: whatever I have to get up, take a kid to
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the hospital, or or you know, my underwear catch on fire, whatever.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I just had to take. When I charge my phone,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: I always go to battery in the settings and turn
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: it on low power mode, and then I just turn
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: it off, like I mean, I'll leave the ringer on
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: in case somebody calls.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know why it chooses to optimize though, and
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: make you wait six or seven hours to charge up
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: instead of just you know, and you can go in
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and disable it. But I have to go in and
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: disable it every night.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Right bring up your notes or something, because I can
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: show you right now how to capitalize. You're doing something wrong.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I'm hitting the up arrow, the capitalization arrow. If I
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: hit it once, it capitalizes for one letter. If I
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: hit it twice, it just goes capital back down. I
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: can't lock it in, and it's very frustrating. You know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I have to come over here and do it while
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: we're on the air. You can show me afterward, but
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I haven't been able to get it to work, and
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: it's just it is. I'm forever an android guy. Oh look,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: you gotta get seriously here, text yourself, open up the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: text me that's a voicemail. Open up text me wherever
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: text messages are so you can text yourself and try
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: to lock the caps. He's going to do this while
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I'm on the air. Okay, okay, see, I'm right. You
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: come over here to disprove me, and I'm right. I
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: love it when that happens. Let me get to the
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: phones here, Mary, you're on six ten w E TV.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: And Hi, Hi Jack, thank you for taking my call.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: And I don't know how to do that on my
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: iPhone either.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: It's crazy.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Well, Zach was actually crouched down in the studio here
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: next to me playing with the phone right now. And
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: that's all I've had was an iPhone. Though. Maybe I'll ask.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: My gress on him, I know, let you know later.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Anyway, I was just.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Wanting to comment on the old rockers. I just seen
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Alice Cooper at the Sonic and he's still rocking it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Great. Hey, let me ask you did he do poison? Yeah? Good?
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: He has a tendency to be forgotten. I loved that
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: song that's been what twenty years ago. But I loved
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Poison when it came out because it was so it
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: was so modern and yet so classically Alice that it
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: sounded really good and then nobody ever talked about it. Right,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: it's one of my favorites. But he didn't do his balace,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: And that's you know, like, uh, I'll never cry.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah. A couple of the other ones I can't think
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of right off fan, but Alice I was disappointing to me.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Alice is a golf course loving conservative kind of guy too.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Most people wouldn't believe that when they look at him.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Yes he is.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, Well, I appreciate you updating me on it, Mary,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: thanks very much. He's yeah, Alice is. He's and again,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: like Rod Stewart, he's never been pretty, so he's aging.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: But it's okay, okay, how'd you get it to work?
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: What did you do? What did you do to lock
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: it in? Just just use that one right there. Tell
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: me what did you do? Because Mary just said she
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: can't do hers either. Just tell you can't show anybody
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: it's radio. What did you do in? Just setting? Yes?
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: All caps? Okay, go into settings go into keyboard, Okay,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: enable caps lock in settings settings, keyboard enable caps lock.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: And then what do I do? Just double click all
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: my thing to Okay. Sweet, So that problem solved, but
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: the battery issue still sucks, just saying go back to
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: your cave now. And and before I go, I started
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: off lamenting the fact that you know, Columbus had an
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: issue with the taco fest over the weekend. And it's
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: not just Columbus, it's not even just Ohio, It's it's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: all of us. And this story out of Morrow County,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: yet another domestic violence call where deputy shows up coming
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: to serve and protect and gunfire is exchanged and this
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: young man wearing the uniform of service did not go
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: home that night. I am asked, I'm begging literally, if
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: you are a younger listener and you have children, this
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: is to you. If you're an older listener and you
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: have grandchildren that just love you know, Papa or mama
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: or whatever you are to them and will listen to you,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: make it a priority to teach them love and consideration,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: appreciate ciation of life, respect for authority, doing the right thing,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: living the right way, being the good guy. You see,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: we don't do it anymore somehow. If it became question authority,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: sometimes you need to shut up and just listen to authority.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: If authority says, pull over and show me your idea
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: in driver's your driver's lace and the share do it.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: But everybody wants to question, They want to turn on
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: their video camera and get on YouTube and try to
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: catch the officer and some lack of knowledge about a
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: traffic law. Forget all that. If you want to challenge it,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: go to court and challenge it. In the meantime, comply,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: do what you're asked to do, and care enough about
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: one another, whether you're neighbors, friends, roommates, family, or just
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: members of society sharing this airspace, care enough about one
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: another to want each other to see another day. This
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: lack of regard for life, for personal safety, it's getting
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: out of hand and there will be repercussions. And while
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, in most cases they're going to
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: be justified, I don't want to see that either. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: don't want to see people getting beaten up by six
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: good guys waiting in the corner for the bad guy
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: to make his move. I don't want to see the
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: old man pulling out a gun and dropping the fifteen
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: year old on the street because the fifteen year old
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: didn't know how to control himself. That's not the positive
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: direction we should be moving. We're supposed to advance, not
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: go backward. To the family of that deputy into everybody
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: out there that puts on a badge. God bless you
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and thank you for serving and protecting
