- 1:57Speaker 4: Tom Bragg steps into the phone slab. Chris Lawrence is
- 2:00Speaker 4: with me here this morning, of course, part of our
- 2:03Speaker 4: Friday night football team following the Hurricane Redskins this year, right,
- 2:07Speaker 4: and it's been an interesting season so far. Yeah, and it.
- 2:10Speaker 6: Really takes a kind of a transition tonight because Hurricanes
- 2:14Speaker 6: really just it's been coming one right after the other.
- 2:17Speaker 6: And last week that you would have thought cabl Midland
- 2:20Speaker 6: came into that game with winless, but you knew that
- 2:23Speaker 6: they were going to come in there and fight because
- 2:25Speaker 6: that's such a rivalry game between those two schools and
- 2:28Speaker 6: Louis ma Ho they did and Hurricane did not. They
- 2:30Speaker 6: played kind of sloppy, and even Donnie Mays admitted that
- 2:33Speaker 6: when I talked to him, he said, you know, we
- 2:34Speaker 6: just did. We did look crisp in that first half.
- 2:36Speaker 6: We kind of took them for granted because they hadn't
- 2:38Speaker 6: won a game, and they came out there and they
- 2:40Speaker 6: you know, they played and they and they they gave
- 2:42Speaker 6: them their best shot. Now Hurricane was able to pull
- 2:45Speaker 6: away late in the game and got the win. That's
- 2:48Speaker 6: something that the Hurricane's going to have to guard against
- 2:51Speaker 6: for several more weeks as they're coming up against opponents
- 2:54Speaker 6: that are, you know, trying to rebuild their programs and
- 2:56Speaker 6: trying to put together wins, and they're you know, they
- 2:58Speaker 6: they have a the fewer players and they're trying to
- 3:02Speaker 6: just find the right combination in Saint Albans is one
- 3:04Speaker 6: of those. Tonight they've not got to win either. But
- 3:06Speaker 6: Hurrican learn last week if you lay down, every team's
- 3:09Speaker 6: gonna come at you, and you better be ready for everything.
- 3:12Speaker 6: So the challenge, and you know, the challenge is to
- 3:15Speaker 6: fight complacency and to play consistently every time you go
- 3:19Speaker 6: out on the field, regardless of the opponent. Sod be
- 3:21Speaker 6: interesting to see if Hurricane can keep that momentum going.
- 3:24Speaker 4: Yeah, I would love to see. And we talk about
- 3:26Speaker 4: this every year, about a more competitive Saint Albans. You know,
- 3:28Speaker 4: when I grew up in the when my sister went
- 3:30Speaker 4: up there in the eighties, and when Randy Barnes was
- 3:32Speaker 4: over there, and Saint Albans was a pretty good team
- 3:34Speaker 4: and was always a player in the valley. It hasn't
- 3:36Speaker 4: been that way in a long time now.
- 3:38Speaker 6: The last time that I think that they were really
- 3:40Speaker 6: in the conversation was seven when they went to Wheeling
- 3:43Speaker 6: and Derek Christian was the coach and they had a
- 3:45Speaker 6: really good team that year. And since that time it
- 3:48Speaker 6: seems like they have really struggled. And you know, the
- 3:51Speaker 6: transfer portal as they call it now in high school
- 3:54Speaker 6: football has not been good to them, and several other
- 3:57Speaker 6: schools around the valley have endured that same kind of
- 3:59Speaker 6: fate as well. Riverside's another one that, you know, proud
- 4:02Speaker 6: program that has just taking their lumps for what for
- 4:05Speaker 6: one reason or another, in the consistency there has just
- 4:08Speaker 6: not been there. But uh, you know that that that happens.
- 4:13Speaker 6: And these are schools that you know. First year coach
- 4:15Speaker 6: Derek Stotts at Saint Albans is trying to lay a
- 4:19Speaker 6: foundation there for to rebuild that program, and it is
- 4:22Speaker 6: a complete rebuild he's and he's having a hard time
- 4:25Speaker 6: with it because he has so many injuries. He was
- 4:28Speaker 6: telling me yesterday that just about all of the offensive
- 4:32Speaker 6: line that he penciled in to start the season is
- 4:35Speaker 6: out for the year, and they're only halfway through their
- 4:38Speaker 6: schedule and they're coming up on that part of their
- 4:40Speaker 6: schedule where they might be have have a little more
- 4:43Speaker 6: competitive opportunity to win a few games against other teams
- 4:48Speaker 6: like them that are trying to rebuild and trying to
- 4:50Speaker 6: start over. So you know, it comes at a tough
- 4:52Speaker 6: time for him. Those injuries are really just not doing
- 4:55Speaker 6: him any favors at this point.
- 4:56Speaker 5: So he had no illusions. He knew it was a challenge,
- 4:59Speaker 5: and he knows Night's game will be a challenge.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Taking a step away from that for just a moment.
- 5:03Speaker 4: One thing that I find pretty interesting, and you talked
- 5:05Speaker 4: about the transfer portal on how many schools have had
- 5:08Speaker 4: trouble adjusting to this. You kind of have the haves
- 5:10Speaker 4: and the have nots and so forth. One thing I
- 5:13Speaker 4: find that's kind of interesting, and we wondered what kind
- 5:14Speaker 4: of impact it would have both South Charleston and Capitol
- 5:17Speaker 4: last season where those teams that unfortunately were on the
- 5:20Speaker 4: on the negative side of a lot of fifty to
- 5:23Speaker 4: seven games, sixty three to ten games, things along those lines. Yeah,
- 5:28Speaker 4: a lot of games where they didn't even score or
- 5:29Speaker 4: would score like a courtesy touchdown in the fourth quarter
- 5:32Speaker 4: or something like that. South Charleston still struggling a little bit,
- 5:36Speaker 4: trying to get better. Coach carp came back to Capitol. Yep. Competitive,
- 5:40Speaker 4: I mean maybe not against the elite elite, but they're
- 5:43Speaker 4: scoring points, stopping some folks. Competitive Again, keep it in
- 5:46Speaker 4: mind though, that the Capital is now not competing in
- 5:49Speaker 4: that big deal a so that helps them out a
- 5:53Speaker 4: little bit and gives them a little more competitive. They're
- 5:55Speaker 4: still playing that quad a schedule tonight, They've got George
- 5:58Speaker 4: Washington and that will definitely be a test for them.
- 6:00Speaker 4: But yeah, they've they've found a way to compete. And
- 6:03Speaker 4: Carp's got him rallied again because he's pretty good at
- 6:06Speaker 4: getting those guys to play for him. And not that
- 6:07Speaker 4: becaus coach Mason. It's just that, Yeah, some guys have
- 6:10Speaker 4: been in the and just been in the game for
- 6:12Speaker 4: a while and and and uh, it's interesting to see
- 6:14Speaker 4: that because we wonder how much coaching means sometimes and
- 6:18Speaker 4: and I think a lot of time does community relationships
- 6:20Speaker 4: and relationships with parents and players and things like that.
- 6:23Speaker 4: And he just has a long time in the area.
- 6:25Speaker 6: He doesn't and and carp has a way and I
- 6:28Speaker 6: don't know if it will work at any other school,
- 6:29Speaker 6: but he has away with those Capital guys to get
- 6:31Speaker 6: them to play.
- 6:32Speaker 4: That's absolutely true.
- 6:33Speaker 6: And it's and it's really a it's a it's a
- 6:36Speaker 6: beautiful thing to watch him coach them because he will
- 6:38Speaker 6: sit back there and he will poor mouth his coaching ability,
- 6:41Speaker 6: but he can get him up when he needs to
- 6:42Speaker 6: and he knows that. So as an alum, he's done
- 6:45Speaker 6: he tries to be done like a fox.
- 6:47Speaker 4: A little bit there. As an alum, I like seeing
- 6:48Speaker 4: Capitol at least competitive again. You know that the trip
- 6:51Speaker 4: away thing kind of hurts me in my heart because
- 6:52Speaker 4: you know, they were like the biggest school, the best
- 6:54Speaker 4: of the of the future and all that. When you
- 6:57Speaker 4: know when I graduated.
- 6:58Speaker 6: When you were there, I mean they were they were
- 6:59Speaker 6: in the National conversation every year. They were one of
- 7:02Speaker 6: those kind.
- 7:02Speaker 4: Of a brandom school. I went its first year in existence.
- 7:05Speaker 4: I was the first class that went all the way through.
- 7:06Speaker 6: If I'm not mistaken that they didn't. Was it Jefferson
- 7:10Speaker 6: Pilot Sports or somebody Raycom Sports or somebody actually put
- 7:14Speaker 6: their games on national TV.
- 7:16Speaker 4: Yeah, it was one of the It was the predecessor.
- 7:17Speaker 4: It was like sports Net South or something like that,
- 7:20Speaker 4: was the predecessor of like the regional networks that we
- 7:21Speaker 4: have now, right exactly. Yeah.
- 7:23Speaker 6: I wasn't here when that happened, but I was told
- 7:25Speaker 6: that that it was a huge deal.
- 7:28Speaker 4: It was a darkest stormy night, my friend, and it
- 7:30Speaker 4: really was. They I think they had to delay the game,
- 7:33Speaker 4: as we know a lot about now. Yeah, so they
- 7:35Speaker 4: had to delay the game. There was lightning strikes. They
- 7:37Speaker 4: had game for a while. Yeah, it was crazy, Holy cat.
- 7:40Speaker 4: I remember one of my friends got the first time
- 7:42Speaker 4: I ever witnessed a concussion in real life was during
- 7:44Speaker 4: that game. And one of my friends came to the sidelines,
- 7:46Speaker 4: had no idea what day of the week it was, literally,
- 7:48Speaker 4: had no idea what day of the week it was.
- 7:50Speaker 5: Yeah, and they probably looked at him and went, what's
- 7:52Speaker 5: wrong with you?
- 7:53Speaker 4: Get back in there, back at that point in time,
- 7:55Speaker 4: Get back in there, suck it up, see saying.
- 7:57Speaker 6: Track back when I yeah, back when I played, you
- 7:59Speaker 6: never you never told anybody you were hurt, unless you
- 8:02Speaker 6: literally were carrying one of your body parts in your
- 8:04Speaker 6: hand off the field because you might not get back
- 8:06Speaker 6: in there. H absolutely work too hard to play. I
- 8:09Speaker 6: don't want to leave, It's true. So that's that's kind
- 8:12Speaker 6: of how it was.
- 8:13Speaker 4: So seven o'clock tonight is going to be our pre
- 8:15Speaker 4: game seven thirty kickoff. It's going to be a hurricane
- 8:16Speaker 4: going across the bridge to take on the Red Dragons.
- 8:18Speaker 6: Indeed, and we will have after that Metro News game night,
- 8:21Speaker 6: Fred and Dave will have all the scores for you,
- 8:23Speaker 6: So tune in and we'll bring you all the action
- 8:26Speaker 6: from Crawford Field, Historic Crawford Field rock and.
- 8:29Speaker 4: Roll sounds great, man, appreciate it. Chris, thanks the time.
- 8:31Speaker 4: That's Chris Lawrence. He's going to be part of our
- 8:33Speaker 4: team tonight with Aaron Parker covering the Hurricane Redskins taking
- 8:36Speaker 4: on the sant Albans Red Dragons. Seven o'clock will be
- 8:38Speaker 4: our pre game on high school football tonight. Tom Bragg
- 8:41Speaker 4: is on the phone with us. He is the part
- 8:44Speaker 4: of our other broadcast crew, which actually both of them here.
- 8:46Speaker 4: Matt Murphy's producing this morning across the glass room. It's
- 8:48Speaker 4: Matt and Tom take On. They do the Hurrican games
- 8:52Speaker 4: over in Oursistation ninety six one, Superstar Country KWS. Tom.
- 8:55Speaker 4: Good morning, how you doing this morning, Coop.
- 8:58Speaker 7: I'm doing great. I just got to listen to Chris
- 9:00Speaker 7: Lawrence talked about coach carp and classic high school football
- 9:03Speaker 7: on Jefferson Pilot. That's like Tom Brag.
- 9:04Speaker 4: BINGO, Yeah, here we go, man. I know that, I
- 9:07Speaker 4: know that that's absolutely true. You and Matt have had
- 9:09Speaker 4: an interesting season so far as well. Whoever right now
- 9:12Speaker 4: is kind of the one of the cream of the
- 9:14Speaker 4: crop when it comes to their class. They've They've put
- 9:17Speaker 4: together a pretty good season so far. What do you
- 9:19Speaker 4: see with tonight's game against Chaplanville. I told you they
- 9:22Speaker 4: come up again.
- 9:23Speaker 7: Yeah, the Huskies have it rolling right now.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Man.
- 9:25Speaker 7: There's some really good teams at the top of this
- 9:27Speaker 7: new class Triple A in the in the four class system.
- 9:31Speaker 7: Up at the top, Bridgeport, Fairmont Senior, both you know,
- 9:34Speaker 7: established powerhouse programs Princeton and Hoover. Hoover right there behind
- 9:38Speaker 7: him though. So it'll be interesting to see how things
- 9:40Speaker 7: go down the stretch as we start getting lined up
- 9:42Speaker 7: with playoff seating. But that all starts tonight down in Chapmanville.
- 9:45Speaker 7: You know the Tigers. It's been a tough season for
- 9:48Speaker 7: the Tigers, just one win so far. They got to
- 9:50Speaker 7: win their opener against Cissamville, losses against Winfield Nitro, and
- 9:53Speaker 7: a big loss against Scott last week. A couple of
- 9:56Speaker 7: bright spots. They've got a couple kids who can play.
- 9:59Speaker 7: But man, it just it seemed times are tough right
- 10:01Speaker 7: now for Chapmanville and it is not a good time
- 10:04Speaker 7: to be down with Herbert Hoover coming to town, which
- 10:06Speaker 7: is like I said, these guys have it rolling. Put
- 10:08Speaker 7: up sixty plus points against Sisamville last week. Dane Hatfield,
- 10:12Speaker 7: the senior quarterback that seems like he's been around as
- 10:15Speaker 7: long as I have Carver and high school ball. He's
- 10:18Speaker 7: having another fantastic year. And it's not one of those like, oh,
- 10:22Speaker 7: he's got weapons everywhere and he's throwing the ball around.
- 10:25Speaker 7: He does have weapons everywhere, but everybody's getting touches, everybody's
- 10:28Speaker 7: getting carries. Hoover's doing it in all three phases of
- 10:32Speaker 7: the game of Matt and I saw last week that
- 10:34Speaker 7: big blowout. They opened the game with a kickoff return.
- 10:37Speaker 7: On the opening touchdown, Sisomville got the ball and punted,
- 10:39Speaker 7: Hoover blocked at coop. One play later they scored. Systemville
- 10:43Speaker 7: gets the kickoff, fumbles the return. One play later Hoover scored.
- 10:46Speaker 7: They'd ran two plays and had kickoff and had scored
- 10:48Speaker 7: twenty one points. And that's just kind of how things
- 10:50Speaker 7: have gone so far for the Huskies.
- 10:53Speaker 4: So that game is going to be tonight on our
- 10:55Speaker 4: CISU station, Superstar Country ninety six one KWS. You can
- 10:59Speaker 4: find the We go straight to the kickoff there, so
- 11:01Speaker 4: that's going to be right at about seven o'clock. Things
- 11:04Speaker 4: will get started over there. After what do we have
- 11:07Speaker 4: to look forward to after tonight with Hoover. What's their
- 11:10Speaker 4: next couple games look like?
- 11:11Speaker 7: So next week could be an interesting one. The Wayne
- 11:14Speaker 7: Pioneers coming down to LQ for a big matchup. We think,
- 11:18Speaker 7: you know, Wayne has an odd team that's been on
- 11:21Speaker 7: some tough times, but not so long ago, a real
- 11:24Speaker 7: powerhouse in Class Double A. Started off this season really
- 11:27Speaker 7: well suffered maybe an I don't want to say unsuspected,
- 11:31Speaker 7: but there was a lot of hype coming into their
- 11:33Speaker 7: game with Nitro last week of like is this Wayne
- 11:35Speaker 7: team for real? And they did not pass the test,
- 11:37Speaker 7: So we'll see how they bounce back. But that's on
- 11:39Speaker 7: the schedule. Next week should be interesting.
- 11:41Speaker 4: That's good stuff. Man. Tom Bragg joining us from our
- 11:44Speaker 4: broadcast team along with Matt Guitar Murphy on our citusation
- 11:48Speaker 4: Superstar Country ninety six to one KWS on the Hoover
- 11:50Speaker 4: broadcast tonight, taking on Chapmanville and Chapmanville. You can tune
- 11:54Speaker 4: into that at ninety six to one FM and ninety
- 11:57Speaker 4: six one FM dot com or ninety six one FM
- 12:00Speaker 4: Kato Bis whatever their website is, you can find it
- 12:02Speaker 4: over there as well. Tom. Thanks a bunch of your
- 12:04Speaker 4: time this morning. I appreciate that.
- 12:05Speaker 7: Hey, thanks, Coop.
- 12:06Speaker 4: I we'll talk to you later on that. Tom Bragg
- 12:08Speaker 4: from our broadcast team for the Hoover Broadcast that we'll
- 12:10Speaker 4: be taking on tonight. And if you listen to us
- 12:13Speaker 4: on Fridays, then you know now it's time to talk
- 12:15Speaker 4: about the pooches as well. And this is a this
- 12:19Speaker 4: is a very cute dog. We're talking about Marshmellow. And
- 12:22Speaker 4: let's go ahead and bring on Hannah this morning from
- 12:24Speaker 4: the Kanak Humane Society. Hannah, good morning. How are you
- 12:26Speaker 4: doing this morning?
- 12:27Speaker 8: I'm good.
- 12:28Speaker 9: How are you?
- 12:29Speaker 4: I'm doing very well. I appreciate your Tom and coming
- 12:31Speaker 4: on to talk to us a little bit. Can you
- 12:33Speaker 4: tell us about Marshmallow?
- 12:36Speaker 8: Yeah, So, Marshmallow is a very very sweet, cute girl.
- 12:42Speaker 8: I'm not sure exactly what she is. I mean, she
- 12:45Speaker 8: kind of looks like she's got a little bit of
- 12:47Speaker 8: pity in her. She could have a multitude of other
- 12:51Speaker 8: things in her. She's a very muscular looking girl. She's
- 12:55Speaker 8: very very cute and sweet, but she is around two
- 12:58Speaker 8: years old. She's like trips and vaccinated already. She came
- 13:02Speaker 8: in as astray to Kseyha. So we're not entirely sure
- 13:06Speaker 8: of her background or much of really how her personality is,
- 13:11Speaker 8: except for while she's been with us. We do know
- 13:15Speaker 8: that she is very very smart and knows how to
- 13:19Speaker 8: come senses. So if you are someone who maybe just
- 13:24Speaker 8: gets your dog from wherever and takes it outside and
- 13:28Speaker 8: just lets it roam on supervised, maybe would stay with
- 13:32Speaker 8: her for just a while just to make sure that
- 13:34Speaker 8: you know she's comfortable and your yard, you're comfortable with her,
- 13:38Speaker 8: and she can just make sure that she's not gonna
- 13:40Speaker 8: jump your face. She has jumped a few fences before.
- 13:44Speaker 8: Side just want to make sure that that's clear for everybody.
- 13:47Speaker 8: She does prefer calmer dogs as friends, so if you
- 13:52Speaker 8: have another hyperactive, energetic dog, she might not do too
- 13:56Speaker 8: well with that, just because she's kind of on the
- 13:58Speaker 8: commerce side herself. She does play. She is playful, but
- 14:02Speaker 8: she likes to lay down when she's ready to lay down.
- 14:06Speaker 8: She's very kid friendly from what we've noticed. She's a
- 14:09Speaker 8: social butterfly. She has a fully sponsored adoption fee, so
- 14:13Speaker 8: if you plan on adopting her, you wouldn't have to
- 14:16Speaker 8: pay anything unless she is not fixed already, which I
- 14:21Speaker 8: don't think she is, but she probably would say it's
- 14:25Speaker 8: a shelter to get sixed, and then you would pick
- 14:27Speaker 8: her up after she's sick.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Now I go, I gotta admit it. At about a
- 14:32Speaker 4: little under forty pounds, this is for somebody that's looking
- 14:35Speaker 4: for kind of a medium sized dog without it being
- 14:36Speaker 4: too small. This is a This is a perfect sized dog.
- 14:39Speaker 4: She looks a little bit like the This might be
- 14:42Speaker 4: too old for you, Hannah, but it looks a little
- 14:44Speaker 4: bit like the the our game dog, the Little Rascals
- 14:46Speaker 4: dog with the spot around its eye and stuff like that.
- 14:49Speaker 4: Looks a little bit like that dog. If you know,
- 14:53Speaker 4: you know, it's just leave it. There are a lot
- 14:54Speaker 4: of our listeners still know what I'm talking about. The
- 14:56Speaker 4: dog looks a little bit of like a a very fetching,
- 14:58Speaker 4: a very fetching animal, and folks that are looking to
- 15:03Speaker 4: adopt could do a lot worse because this dog is
- 15:05Speaker 4: absolutely a cute little thing.
- 15:08Speaker 8: Yes, yes, she's very very cute. She's very sweet. We've
- 15:11Speaker 8: had her in playgroups with the other dogs before and
- 15:14Speaker 8: she pretty much just keeps to herself, but she'll engage
- 15:16Speaker 8: with some of the other dogs in play for a minute.
- 15:19Speaker 8: But again she's like you said, she's right at that
- 15:22Speaker 8: thirty eight thirty nine mark on her waist. So she's
- 15:26Speaker 8: a perfect sized dog. She's the perfect family dog. I
- 15:30Speaker 8: would say, of course, I always say this every single time.
- 15:33Speaker 8: I always advise caution, no matter how friendly we have
- 15:36Speaker 8: seen them be with kids and other dogs, I just
- 15:40Speaker 8: go ahead and don't leave anything unsupervised and just keep
- 15:44Speaker 8: that caution just so that way you're better safe than sorry.
- 15:47Speaker 4: I just want to remind folks that we have Marshmallow available.
- 15:50Speaker 4: Of course, who is a cute dog that would be
- 15:52Speaker 4: perfect for your family. But there is a lot going
- 15:55Speaker 4: on at the at the Charleston I found like a
- 15:59Speaker 4: human society that we need to talk about. There's almost
- 16:01Speaker 4: one hundred and thirty dogs that you have in house there.
- 16:04Speaker 8: Yes, we are currently in a big crisis of over capacity.
- 16:09Speaker 8: I think we are between twelve and fourteen dogs over capacity.
- 16:14Speaker 8: So once again we were downs just to critical capacity.
- 16:20Speaker 8: Now we're over critical capacity and it keeps kind of
- 16:23Speaker 8: Peter Totten between the two. So we definitely need help.
- 16:28Speaker 8: You can help that fostering if you want to take
- 16:30Speaker 8: a dog or two that are approved to go together
- 16:33Speaker 8: out to a foster home for the week, for the weekend,
- 16:36Speaker 8: for a couple of weeks, however long you are comfortable
- 16:39Speaker 8: with doing so. It's definitely great for the animals. It
- 16:42Speaker 8: gets going to break from the shelter life, and it's
- 16:44Speaker 8: also proven that it doesn't cause an additional stress to
- 16:47Speaker 8: come back. You can volunteer donate. Of course, we're always
- 16:51Speaker 8: in need of perian a dog, chow, treat toys, use linens,
- 16:55Speaker 8: Felicia's callers, all kinds of stuff, so volunteering also again
- 16:59Speaker 8: is a very big way to help out. We also
- 17:02Speaker 8: don't have a lot of staff there, so we're cleaning
- 17:05Speaker 8: all day every day and if anybody else wants to
- 17:08Speaker 8: come out and help, we would absolutely appreciate it.
- 17:11Speaker 4: That is that, of course, would be go a long
- 17:13Speaker 4: way for folks that do want to help out. Any
- 17:15Speaker 4: particular way best way to reach out either for trying
- 17:19Speaker 4: to help out with adoption, to get a hold of
- 17:22Speaker 4: the Humane Society. What's the best way to reach out
- 17:24Speaker 4: to you?
- 17:26Speaker 8: So if you want to adopt foster, donat ask questions
- 17:29Speaker 8: anything like that. You can crawl through four three, four, two, one, five,
- 17:34Speaker 8: seven six and that should get you to if you
- 17:37Speaker 8: speak to any of the adoption counselors, they should be
- 17:39Speaker 8: able to help you with any of those questions. You
- 17:43Speaker 8: can also email at adopted at adopt Charleston dot com,
- 17:47Speaker 8: so it's adopt at adopt Chileston dot com and then
- 17:51Speaker 8: you can ask any questions there as well. So you
- 17:53Speaker 8: can even just come on up and if you want
- 17:55Speaker 8: to get started volunteering today tomorrow, just come on up
- 18:00Speaker 8: and we can get you started.
- 18:03Speaker 4: Last question that I had for you before I let
- 18:05Speaker 4: you go, Hannah, and I know, I think I know
- 18:07Speaker 4: the answer to this, but we had a caller or
- 18:09Speaker 4: a texture that was wondering if kseyj Is taking any
- 18:13Speaker 4: pets in from the hurricane and floods, and I'm guessing
- 18:16Speaker 4: you just don't have a room for anything like that.
- 18:18Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that we would absolutely love to help,
- 18:22Speaker 8: but I think that we wouldn't be able to help.
- 18:24Speaker 10: We wouldn't.
- 18:25Speaker 8: I think a lot of shelters right now are kind
- 18:27Speaker 8: of over capacity. I'm sure the ones out that way
- 18:31Speaker 8: are also extremely overcapacity. I've seen where a lot of
- 18:35Speaker 8: rescues and other shelters are getting involved and pulling animals
- 18:39Speaker 8: from there as well. But I think at the moment,
- 18:41Speaker 8: we probably would not be the best help that and.
- 18:45Speaker 4: I think that that's very fair and understandable. Hannah, thank
- 18:47Speaker 4: you so much for your time today. I really appreciate that,
- 18:49Speaker 4: no problem, you have a great one. You do the same.
- 18:52Speaker 4: Thank you so much that Hannah joining us as she
- 18:54Speaker 4: does every week from the Connal Charleston Humane Association. Of course,
- 18:58Speaker 4: it's a crisis over there with the that we do
- 19:01Speaker 4: need to have adopted in. Marshmallow is over there waiting
- 19:03Speaker 4: for you this morning. Forty pounds of a lovable, short
- 19:07Speaker 4: haired dog looks a lot like the dog from our gang,
- 19:10Speaker 4: So that gives you an idea of what that QTI
- 19:13Speaker 4: looks like. So you can contact the Connel Charleston Humane
- 19:15Speaker 4: Association to adopt Marshmallow and give us a shout out,
- 19:18Speaker 4: and let us know if you do, because we like
- 19:19Speaker 4: to know when those things happen. We need to take
- 19:22Speaker 4: a break here in just a moment, we're going to
- 19:23Speaker 4: come back with Andrew Donaldson. We're going to talk a
- 19:24Speaker 4: little bit. This was going to be a primer on
- 19:27Speaker 4: the long shortman strike, the doc strike, about what we
- 19:31Speaker 4: had in store for us, about what was going to mean. Well,
- 19:34Speaker 4: it got pushed off until after the election and all
- 19:37Speaker 4: that mess. It's going to resume with no other If
- 19:40Speaker 4: no other negotiations take place, it's going to resume on
- 19:42Speaker 4: January fifteenth. We're going to get the lowdown of those
- 19:45Speaker 4: details exactly and some of the background on that when
- 19:47Speaker 4: we come back here in just eight minutes. So we'll

- 23:08Speaker 4: You're listening to five eighty love w HS The voice
- 23:10Speaker 4: of Charles and Am del Cooper come home. Just a moment,
- 23:12Speaker 4: we're going to have Andrew Donaldson join us. He's going
- 23:15Speaker 4: to talk about the long shorreman strike that has been
- 23:19Speaker 4: suspended now and it looks like it's not going to
- 23:24Speaker 4: come about until January fifteenth. Until January fifteenth, we're going
- 23:27Speaker 4: to have the long shortman strike that's going to be
- 23:30Speaker 4: it's going to be delayed until that time. We're trying
- 23:33Speaker 4: to make connection with Andrew right now. By the way, Matt,
- 23:35Speaker 4: I told him, you might want to look at the numbers.
- 23:37Speaker 4: I told him he could try calling us too, so
- 23:38Speaker 4: he might want to look at the lines. Just a case,
- 23:40Speaker 4: but he may be he'll be contact with just a moment.
- 23:43Speaker 4: Having a little bit of a of a technical problem
- 23:45Speaker 4: with MI end this morning. But also big news last
- 23:48Speaker 4: night for Reds fans. We didn't touch it on this
- 23:51Speaker 4: at the beginning of the show, but former Red Sox
- 23:53Speaker 4: and Indian or Guardians manager Terry Francona has been named
- 23:57Speaker 4: the manager of the Cincinnati Reds. Two times World Series
- 23:59Speaker 4: Chairmion nearly a legend when it comes to the managerial
- 24:03Speaker 4: game in Major League Baseball, So frankly, I'm kind of
- 24:05Speaker 4: looking forward to what that's going to mean for Reds baseball.
- 24:08Speaker 4: We'll talk about that later on, probably not so much
- 24:11Speaker 4: on this show, but tune in later on this afternoon
- 24:13Speaker 4: on Metro News Hotline after three o'clock, and we'll definitely
- 24:16Speaker 4: talk about it then with Dave Weekly joining me. Now,
- 24:19Speaker 4: Andrew Donaldson's going to give us a little bit of
- 24:21Speaker 4: a primer on the long Shorman strike and what was
- 24:24Speaker 4: happening at our docks that we've now averted. But Andrew's
- 24:26Speaker 4: been on this show before, he's hosted this show before,
- 24:29Speaker 4: and we happen to trip right into a specialty of his,
- 24:32Speaker 4: which is a transportation Andrew, good morning. How you doing
- 24:35Speaker 4: this morning?
- 24:36Speaker 14: I'm good. Can we just talk about the Reds instead,
- 24:38Speaker 14: because that's way more exciting than this, even though the
- 24:40Speaker 14: port stuff is way more important, especially in the longer
- 24:43Speaker 14: range implications we're going to get into. But I'm excited
- 24:45Speaker 14: boy that man. It's a young team, they've had a lot,
- 24:47Speaker 14: let's be honest, an even team that's usually a leadership issue.
- 24:50Speaker 14: I think this is a good thing.
- 24:51Speaker 4: I agree. I don't think the Reds could have done
- 24:54Speaker 4: anything to surprise me more than finding somehow to get
- 24:58Speaker 4: Terry Francona out of retirement to come by to manage
- 25:00Speaker 4: the Reds next season. It tells me that they made
- 25:03Speaker 4: him a pitch that includes they're going to be making
- 25:05Speaker 4: some moves in the off season, I.
- 25:07Speaker 14: Would hope so. But yeah, I'm excited, man. And look,
- 25:10Speaker 14: this port strike thing, this is good news. So the
- 25:13Speaker 14: Reds got good news, the country gets good news of
- 25:15Speaker 14: this port strike. But there's a lot of underlying stuff
- 25:17Speaker 14: that we really need to bookmark on this porch strike
- 25:19Speaker 14: for what's going to be coming down the road, because
- 25:21Speaker 14: it goes to a lot of other things.
- 25:22Speaker 4: My friend, Yeah, it's good. So let's back up just
- 25:26Speaker 4: a little bit. Can you give us a little bit
- 25:28Speaker 4: of a setup for what this strike, because I know
- 25:32Speaker 4: that this all comes down to automation, but walk us
- 25:34Speaker 4: through a little bit what happened here, the timing of
- 25:36Speaker 4: what this was going to be, what it really means,
- 25:38Speaker 4: and what these doc workers, what they mean to our
- 25:41Speaker 4: economy and supply chain things along those lines, and then
- 25:44Speaker 4: ultimately what the temporary resolution that came down last night means.
- 25:47Speaker 14: Yeah, and this also kills a lot of the conspiracy
- 25:49Speaker 14: theories that people have been saying. So let's go through
- 25:51Speaker 14: the timeline just real, real quick, and this is going
- 25:53Speaker 14: to be the real condensed version. Please go re up
- 25:55Speaker 14: on really good stuff places like great Waves, like get
- 25:58Speaker 14: some good information on this this strike. Everybody knew this
- 26:01Speaker 14: was coming since the last contract was signed in twenty eighteen,
- 26:04Speaker 14: so we've known for six years there was going to
- 26:06Speaker 14: be a strike on one October of twenty twenty four.
- 26:09Speaker 14: The reason we knew that was going to happen was
- 26:11Speaker 14: because the year that they did this contract in twenty eighteen,
- 26:14Speaker 14: they basically did a placeholder contract. We've seen this in
- 26:16Speaker 14: other areas. The shipping companies lost money that year, which
- 26:20Speaker 14: means if the union went in and tried to go
- 26:21Speaker 14: to the wall with it, there really wasn't going to
- 26:23Speaker 14: be the money that they were looking to get. So
- 26:25Speaker 14: they did basically a placeholder contract, and the idea was
- 26:28Speaker 14: going to be, Okay, twenty twenty four, we're going to
- 26:29Speaker 14: fight this out, your profits will be up, and we'll
- 26:32Speaker 14: go from there. So, no, this didn't have anything to
- 26:34Speaker 14: do with the hurricane, didn't have anything to do really
- 26:37Speaker 14: with the election year, although they knew it was going
- 26:39Speaker 14: to be an election year and that would be a
- 26:40Speaker 14: leverage pull. Look, union contracts are written for one October
- 26:43Speaker 14: because it's the financial years they kneon Since last year,
- 26:46Speaker 14: Harold Daggett, the guay that's become the lightning route for this.
- 26:48Speaker 14: He's been talking about how this was going to be
- 26:49Speaker 14: a go to the wall strike since last year. The
- 26:52Speaker 14: three pls to do all the scheduling for this stuff.
- 26:56Speaker 14: Back in July started clearing all their schedules for the
- 26:58Speaker 14: end of the year because they knew they were going
- 26:59Speaker 14: to be a strength. So forget all the conspiracy theories.
- 27:02Speaker 14: This is a Circadian rhythm the labor They knew this
- 27:05Speaker 14: was going to be because twenty eighteen the shipping companies
- 27:08Speaker 14: were losing money. Twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two, twenty
- 27:11Speaker 14: twenty three, they've been getting record profits, so the union
- 27:14Speaker 14: was going to get paid. They're like, all right, you've
- 27:16Speaker 14: got your record profits, we've got you an election year.
- 27:18Speaker 14: We're going to do this strike. That's the background on
- 27:21Speaker 14: all this. And they were going to get a big
- 27:22Speaker 14: pay raise. They were offered fifty percent. They ended up
- 27:24Speaker 14: with sixty six percent for this temporary thing that they
- 27:28Speaker 14: just signed. But underneath that, that's the temporary long term.
- 27:31Speaker 14: It's about the automation reports and them not wanting to
- 27:34Speaker 14: lose the long shorming jobs that automation is going to
- 27:37Speaker 14: cut down on because you become more efficient and you
- 27:39Speaker 14: need less people to work. So that's just the rough background.
- 27:42Speaker 14: They got it, I said Cob Friday, So I was
- 27:44Speaker 14: a day early on this thing getting settled. But this
- 27:47Speaker 14: is where we're at. That's the rough background, and that's
- 27:49Speaker 14: where we are sitting today.
- 27:51Speaker 4: What was the stay or the delay or whatever it
- 27:55Speaker 4: is that that's taking place when the strike, What were
- 28:00Speaker 4: terms that were attached to that or how did that
- 28:02Speaker 4: come about? How does that work out? What was the
- 28:04Speaker 4: government involved, what was involved to get that to go
- 28:07Speaker 4: as it did.
- 28:08Speaker 14: It depends on which version of the story you want
- 28:11Speaker 14: to believe in Coop because everybody, now that it's done,
- 28:14Speaker 14: everybody's saying they won, and everybody's saying they were the
- 28:17Speaker 14: cause for the winning. You know, how these things go.
- 28:20Speaker 14: The timeline's really interesting if you go through the people
- 28:22Speaker 14: that actually follow this stuff really closely. And remember the
- 28:25Speaker 14: national news media doesn't cover transportation unless there's a disaster
- 28:28Speaker 14: or a hot button issue, so they parachute in the
- 28:32Speaker 14: negotiations for this right right around noon yesterday. Most people
- 28:36Speaker 14: said was it's going to get done today. So by
- 28:38Speaker 14: the time DeSantis did his press conference thing about one,
- 28:41Speaker 14: this thing was pretty much already settled. They just hadn't
- 28:43Speaker 14: announced it because they were hammering it out, so that
- 28:45Speaker 14: didn't have a lot to do with it. How much
- 28:47Speaker 14: pressure came from outside is the key here. Harold Daggett,
- 28:50Speaker 14: which is the head of the ISLA, and he has
- 28:52Speaker 14: been since twenty eleven, so he was there for the
- 28:54Speaker 14: last thing. He's the one that came out and made
- 28:56Speaker 14: all those comments about crippling the economy and all this.
- 28:59Speaker 14: He was by all accounts, and this is everybody kind
- 29:02Speaker 14: of agrees on this. He did not expect the blowback
- 29:05Speaker 14: that he got. He should have because he came off
- 29:07Speaker 14: as a total bad person in all this and was
- 29:09Speaker 14: very bad pr for the Union. He didn't expect the blowback.
- 29:13Speaker 14: So there's no version of this where Harold Daggat didn't
- 29:15Speaker 14: fold off the rhetoric that he was putting out there.
- 29:18Speaker 14: There's a question of what the government did, because remember,
- 29:20Speaker 14: the president and the administration has the right to invoke
- 29:22Speaker 14: what's called heart Tarlie Hart sat, now, I can't talk
- 29:26Speaker 14: they could taft hardly. They could invoke that and get
- 29:30Speaker 14: an eighty day cool off. Remember two years ago, the
- 29:32Speaker 14: railroad union was going to strike right about this time,
- 29:34Speaker 14: right before Christmas, and the administration stepped in with the
- 29:36Speaker 14: cool off period. The cool off period would be about
- 29:38Speaker 14: eighty days for those of you watching the shopping days
- 29:41Speaker 14: until Christmas, that would be the day after Christmas. If
- 29:43Speaker 14: they would have done it today, which is what they
- 29:45Speaker 14: may or may not have been threatened to do.
- 29:47Speaker 7: We don't know that.
- 29:48Speaker 14: But pushing it out till January fifteenth, which is what
- 29:51Speaker 14: this is, it's basically the same cool off period to
- 29:53Speaker 14: renegotiate it. So if you look at it, after all
- 29:57Speaker 14: this noise, they were offered a fifty percent raise, they
- 29:59Speaker 14: got sixty six percent rais. They also got some points
- 30:02Speaker 14: on the containers. That's kind of a complicated thing to
- 30:04Speaker 14: try to explain, but they're going to get a little
- 30:05Speaker 14: extra money from that. This is pretty a standard negotiation
- 30:09Speaker 14: of what you thought they would have get despite all
- 30:11Speaker 14: the noise, and it's a pause that either they were
- 30:12Speaker 14: going to do themselves, the government could have threatened to
- 30:15Speaker 14: step in if this went too long, and they're just
- 30:17Speaker 14: going to do this in January, so that's kind of
- 30:19Speaker 14: where we're at on all that.
- 30:20Speaker 4: So it's literally just a pause for the most part.
- 30:24Speaker 4: Is there any likelihood of things going on behind the
- 30:25Speaker 4: scenes where January fifteenth comes about and do they say, okay,
- 30:29Speaker 4: we're all done or is there going to be a strike?
- 30:30Speaker 14: And no matter what, well it could be again, like
- 30:33Speaker 14: the railroad one two years ago, they put it off
- 30:36Speaker 14: over the cool off period, and then those workers who
- 30:38Speaker 14: really had an honest beef because that was over their
- 30:40Speaker 14: scheduled time off which they didn't get any they ended
- 30:43Speaker 14: up getting almost everything they wanted in the subsequent negotiations
- 30:45Speaker 14: a couple months later. The idea is, you get rid
- 30:47Speaker 14: of the media attention, you get the government pressure off,
- 30:50Speaker 14: and people sit down and quit posing for the cameras,
- 30:52Speaker 14: because what happened in the last three or four days
- 30:53Speaker 14: was there was no negotiations. There was all media and
- 30:56Speaker 14: pressure releases, and then they finally sat down yesterday and
- 30:59Speaker 14: hammer this thing out. The idea is you get the
- 31:01Speaker 14: media pressure off and people sit down and actually talk
- 31:03Speaker 14: without posing and prawning, and you get the election out
- 31:06Speaker 14: of the way, and you get Christmas out of the way,
- 31:07Speaker 14: which is a big. Let remember all the in shipping
- 31:10Speaker 14: and transportation. Christmas is right now because all the stuff
- 31:12Speaker 14: you buy in November December, it's in route right now.
- 31:15Speaker 14: So that's why this happens now and you get leveraged.
- 31:18Speaker 14: So yeah, they should sit down and do it. Remember,
- 31:21Speaker 14: but this will get suspect to this automation thing. For
- 31:23Speaker 14: these old union heads like the Daggets, who's seventy eight,
- 31:26Speaker 14: they see themselves as this is kind of the last
- 31:28Speaker 14: stand because automation is going to come whether they like
- 31:31Speaker 14: it or not at some point, and they're trying to
- 31:34Speaker 14: get these last couple of deals, and then they got
- 31:35Speaker 14: to start negotiating where does the unions fit into these
- 31:38Speaker 14: new deals because like the Westport Coach, have already started
- 31:40Speaker 14: to see a lot of drop down because of automation.
- 31:42Speaker 14: The world wide ports are automated, even though it's only
- 31:45Speaker 14: about four or five percent of the world wide ports.
- 31:47Speaker 14: That's the future, and you don't want to be a
- 31:49Speaker 14: typewriter and a computer agent. That's the dance that the
- 31:52Speaker 14: unions are trying to do now is where they're trying
- 31:53Speaker 14: to save jobs, take care of their people, but they
- 31:56Speaker 14: also see the future coming. They're gonna have to do something,
- 31:58Speaker 14: so we'll see what the negotiations do.
- 32:00Speaker 4: Well. I have to say that here's the thing that
- 32:03Speaker 4: was really driving me nuts, is the toilet paper pirates.
- 32:07Speaker 4: Like as soon as somebody was hearing there's a disaster
- 32:10Speaker 4: in one part of the country, a striking the other
- 32:11Speaker 4: part of the country, does our hearts go out to
- 32:13Speaker 4: anybody that might be in problems in Appalachia. No, let's
- 32:18Speaker 4: just go to Sam's and buy all the toilet paper
- 32:20Speaker 4: for ourselves.
- 32:22Speaker 14: Unless you have lived overseas, everybody listening to the sound
- 32:25Speaker 14: of my voice right now, that's in the continental United States,
- 32:28Speaker 14: you have probably never bought foreign made toilet paper. Ever,
- 32:32Speaker 14: we are an exporter of toilet paper. Over ninety percent
- 32:34Speaker 14: of all toilet paper is made in America, and most
- 32:36Speaker 14: of the rest of that isn't the actual toilet paper.
- 32:38Speaker 14: It's just you know, the place is up closer to Canada,
- 32:41Speaker 14: they'll get in the pulp and they still make it here.
- 32:43Speaker 14: We export toilet paper. We do not import toilet paper.
- 32:46Speaker 14: There is never in the history of ever going to
- 32:48Speaker 14: be of a situation where something shuts down the ports in
- 32:50Speaker 14: the country or the transplation country. You can't get toilet paper.
- 32:53Speaker 14: You don't get toilet paper because everybody runs a store
- 32:56Speaker 14: and because of the point of sales system, which means
- 32:57Speaker 14: they order it when you buy it, and it goes
- 32:59Speaker 14: through the computer systems. It is silly people being media
- 33:03Speaker 14: marks and believing panic online when it's not time to panic,
- 33:05Speaker 14: because it's toilet paper shortages and that's it. And if
- 33:08Speaker 14: you leave alone for a few days, so if you
- 33:09Speaker 14: ran out and got a bunch of toilet paper, frankly,
- 33:13Speaker 14: shame on you. Just calm down, It'll be okay. The
- 33:15Speaker 14: number two is keep this stuff being stocked up for
- 33:17Speaker 14: two or three weeks anyway, because even at the worst
- 33:20Speaker 14: when they did this a couple of years ago during COVID,
- 33:22Speaker 14: it took about ten days and everything sort of itself out.
- 33:24Speaker 14: If you don't have two weeks of supplies in your
- 33:26Speaker 14: house anyway, you're already doing it wrong. But no, don't
- 33:28Speaker 14: buy this nonsense online.
- 33:30Speaker 4: It was silly, yeah, fakes. I appreciate that because the
- 33:33Speaker 4: first thing I saw when I saw that was like,
- 33:34Speaker 4: oh boy, here we go. Yeah, And then I was like, well,
- 33:38Speaker 4: was there any reason? And I did a little look
- 33:39Speaker 4: and I was like, there's no reason to be doing
- 33:41Speaker 4: this right now, and we're when we need resources in
- 33:44Speaker 4: a part of the country that's in terrible shape right now.
- 33:48Speaker 4: It's not a great idea to go and take all
- 33:50Speaker 4: of the supplies from our box stores. That's just not
- 33:53Speaker 4: a great idea.
- 33:54Speaker 14: And somebody online said, well, is this people buying the
- 33:58Speaker 14: toilet paper and the paper town, because that's paper tels.
- 34:01Speaker 14: People in West Virginia understand flu the cleanup of a flooding,
- 34:04Speaker 14: cleaning supplies is one of the biggest things people need
- 34:07Speaker 14: because you just have no idea what it takes to
- 34:08Speaker 14: get mud out of a house like you need so
- 34:11Speaker 14: much cleaning supplies. It kind of goes to show you, though,
- 34:14Speaker 14: if you really want to make an issue out of it,
- 34:15Speaker 14: put it like, well, where was the rush to bod
- 34:17Speaker 14: these supplies to send the people that actually needed it
- 34:19Speaker 14: instead of just panic buying. There's probably a lesson.
- 34:21Speaker 4: There that's very true. And I appreciate you coming on
- 34:24Speaker 4: this morning. It was funny that when this not ha
- 34:27Speaker 4: haw funny, but when this story started coming up and
- 34:30Speaker 4: I was like, well, who can I go to to
- 34:32Speaker 4: explain to explain all of this stuff about the transportation,
- 34:36Speaker 4: what it means for supply line and I was like, well,
- 34:40Speaker 4: I guess I got a guy that knows how to
- 34:41Speaker 4: talk about that stuff.
- 34:42Speaker 14: Yeah, before Coop, let me be a second string radio
- 34:45Speaker 14: fill in host. I actually did transportation for over fifteen years,
- 34:48Speaker 14: booth trucking with the military. I've done overseas relief stuff.
- 34:52Speaker 14: I've done this. That's actually my professional background for I
- 34:54Speaker 14: got in the media. So it's fun to talk about.
- 34:56Speaker 14: Even if I can't remember how to say taffed hardly,
- 34:58Speaker 14: go look at it. I know that in the future
- 35:01Speaker 14: we'll work on that. But that's why we're the JV squad.
- 35:03Speaker 4: Hey, you do a little research on the Jones Act
- 35:06Speaker 4: while you're at it.
- 35:06Speaker 14: Right, can we get rid of that thing?
- 35:08Speaker 4: That's another show? Right, Yeah, that's another show. That's all right,
- 35:13Speaker 4: I've had Scott. Let's let's come on here before we've
- 35:15Speaker 4: actually talked about it.
- 35:16Speaker 14: Yeah, I was with you that day.
- 35:17Speaker 4: Oh that's right. I forgot. That's right, you were here
- 35:18Speaker 4: with Scott. That's right, that's what you just talked about. Hey, Andrew,

- 39:46Speaker 16: the molly hatchet there.
- 39:47Speaker 4: That was not bad. Now that's Dave's that's Dave's selection
- 39:50Speaker 4: on the bump for music is I I like it?
- 39:52Speaker 4: You can imagine him with a mullet and get down.
- 39:54Speaker 16: Before we get into what you sure sure about, I'd
- 39:56Speaker 16: just said those who were in attendance Saturday night at
- 39:58Speaker 16: the Clay Center were to one of the best concerts
- 40:01Speaker 16: I've ever seen in Charleston, West Virginia. And maybe I'm
- 40:04Speaker 16: biased because she's a friend, but man, Sierra Farrell put
- 40:07Speaker 16: on one of the best concerts we've ever seen here
- 40:09Speaker 16: Saturday night. I think those who were in attendance will agree.
- 40:12Speaker 4: Now she is a spark plug, that's for sure.
- 40:14Speaker 16: It was such a good show and she came by
- 40:15Speaker 16: the glass afterward and I was able to sing a
- 40:17Speaker 16: few songs with her that was really cool with not
- 40:20Speaker 16: you know too often you get this sing with you know,
- 40:22Speaker 16: one of your favorite singers. And then tonight, uh, you know,
- 40:25Speaker 16: we have a there's a show at the Civic Center.
- 40:27Speaker 16: Actually Dwight Yoakam has and the Mavericks uh or don't
- 40:31Speaker 16: sleep on the opening act there. The Mavericks are opening
- 40:33Speaker 16: up for Dwight Yoakam tonight. So just real quick, anybody
- 40:35Speaker 16: who says there's nothing to do in Charleston, you're just
- 40:37Speaker 16: not looking hard.
- 40:38Speaker 4: Yeah, there's plenty of there's a lot.
- 40:40Speaker 16: There's a lot to do, and Grace with some great
- 40:42Speaker 16: concerts lately.
- 40:43Speaker 4: Absolutely, and just briefly on Sierra. We've had her here
- 40:45Speaker 4: to perform a couple of times before she she broke
- 40:47Speaker 4: out and and and made a big but just what
- 40:49Speaker 4: a great talent. Somebody that shows that if you you know,
- 40:52Speaker 4: work hard, uh and you're true to your roots, that
- 40:54Speaker 4: you can make it. And I think that she's done
- 40:56Speaker 4: all those things.
- 40:56Speaker 16: Yeah, and she writes all of her own.
- 40:58Speaker 4: Stuff exactly exactly, and it's all and you tell it's all,
- 41:00Speaker 4: it's all homespun stuff. Okay, so there's a there's a
- 41:04Speaker 4: I had to get I've been an administrative hell this week.
- 41:07Speaker 4: There's a lot of stuff I've been dealing with, so
- 41:08Speaker 4: I had to catch up on a lot of these stories.
- 41:09Speaker 4: I saw uh mister Acres JB Acres here the other day,
- 41:13Speaker 4: and I know JB, and so there's this is complicated,
- 41:18Speaker 4: and this is a political thing, and also there's a
- 41:21Speaker 4: legal thing involved. I'm going to briefly set the contact
- 41:24Speaker 4: and I'm just going to let you respond to what
- 41:26Speaker 4: JV said and I'll have a few things that i'll
- 41:28Speaker 4: ask you about when what he said on his show,
- 41:30Speaker 4: because he brought up a few things, and i'll have
- 41:31Speaker 4: your response to. So the the general response was the demo,
- 41:36Speaker 4: the Western Gian Democratic Party in which you're the chair of.
- 41:40Speaker 4: And and so there was a press release about UH
- 41:43Speaker 4: JB's UH involvement with this lawsuit that that UH internet
- 41:49Speaker 4: podcaster Timpoole has against the Harris campaign for a tweet.
- 41:54Speaker 4: I hate getting into things where we start talking about
- 41:56Speaker 4: tweets and stuff like that, right, so I hate all
- 41:58Speaker 4: I hate all this stuff. Anyway, immediately when we start
- 42:00Speaker 4: talking about tweets on Twitter, a frivolous loss. I think
- 42:04Speaker 4: all of this stuff is I just get sick of
- 42:07Speaker 4: it when there's things to talk about that are really
- 42:08Speaker 4: you know, so Tim Poles, this guy now, frankly, I
- 42:12Speaker 4: knew who he was back in the early two thousands
- 42:14Speaker 4: and he he and I I had actually interacted with
- 42:17Speaker 4: him in the past on Fourth Amendment issues. This was
- 42:19Speaker 4: back after nine eleven, where there was a there should
- 42:23Speaker 4: still be concerned about the Patriot Act, national security letters,
- 42:26Speaker 4: different things like that. That guy no longer exists. I
- 42:28Speaker 4: don't know what happened. He's changed a lot. He has.
- 42:29Speaker 16: He's an extreme right wing YouTuber.
- 42:33Speaker 4: If you a little bit of his shows, and this
- 42:36Speaker 4: ties in some with the Russian thing because he is
- 42:38Speaker 4: under investigation with that. Did he have guests planet? I
- 42:40Speaker 4: don't know, but the tweeting question.
- 42:42Speaker 16: Wait a second, he's under investigation by the federal government
- 42:46Speaker 16: because he took his company, took money, taken one hundred
- 42:49Speaker 16: thousand dollars per episode to put out pro Russian anti
- 42:53Speaker 16: Ukrainian propaganda.
- 42:55Speaker 4: And I mean in proofs in the pudding.
- 42:56Speaker 16: If you go look at the look up some of
- 42:58Speaker 16: his YouTube shows about Ukraine and it is straight out
- 43:01Speaker 16: of the playbook from the Kremlin. That's not hyperbole, that
- 43:04Speaker 16: is not and Dave was making light of that, but personally,
- 43:08Speaker 16: I think it's a pretty big deal that one country
- 43:10Speaker 16: invaded another and if the you know, if some folks
- 43:13Speaker 16: in the Republican Party had their way, they're just going
- 43:16Speaker 16: to hand the Ukraine over to Putin and he's not
- 43:19Speaker 16: going to stop there, okay. And I think that's why
- 43:22Speaker 16: you have folks like Dick Cheney even coming out on
- 43:24Speaker 16: the side of Harris because of this scary foreign policy
- 43:28Speaker 16: by some of the people in the Republican Party led
- 43:31Speaker 16: led by by Donald Trump. It's it's it's not a joke.
- 43:34Speaker 16: I mean they I don't know when the Party of
- 43:36Speaker 16: Reagan became the Party of Putin, but it's scary.
- 43:40Speaker 4: Go ahead. So in the in the transcripts, because a
- 43:43Speaker 4: lot of these videos have been taken down, and because
- 43:45Speaker 4: the legal stuff and anyway, So I went back and
- 43:47Speaker 4: I traced Summit foul Pool's history. He changed different ways.
- 43:51Speaker 4: He was part of the occupy movement, which I think
- 43:52Speaker 4: is where I lost resolution at him att and then
- 43:54Speaker 4: he got into like some anti corporation stuff and then
- 43:57Speaker 4: eventually found himself as a Bernie supporter, and then in
- 44:01Speaker 4: around twenty twenty he started changing his tune considerably.
- 44:03Speaker 5: I'll tell you where you.
- 44:04Speaker 4: He's a grifter.
- 44:05Speaker 16: He's taking money, he's under investigation, taking one hundred the podcasts,
- 44:10Speaker 16: and that's where the money is right. And if you
- 44:11Speaker 16: look at the guests that he's had on his show recently,
- 44:15Speaker 16: whether it's u Alex Jones who actually lost a defamation case,
- 44:21Speaker 16: a real defamation case, because he was putting stuff out
- 44:24Speaker 16: there about the horrible tragedy where grade schoolers were gunned
- 44:27Speaker 16: down at Sandy Hook, calling that Now could you imagine,
- 44:31Speaker 16: well the parents having to listen to that crap? All right,
- 44:34Speaker 16: you lost your your first or second grader, and you
- 44:37Speaker 16: hear this guy going on TV regularly saying that your
- 44:40Speaker 16: child was a crisis actor.
- 44:42Speaker 4: That's disgusting.
- 44:42Speaker 16: That's a real defamation case right there. But he's a
- 44:45Speaker 16: regular on Tim Poole's show. Okay, Nick Fuentes, who's a
- 44:49Speaker 16: white supremacist's holocaust denier, he's a regular on Tim Plein.
- 44:55Speaker 16: But on the show in question, you can find on
- 44:57Speaker 16: the show in question was Laura Lumer, Right, and go ahead.
- 45:01Speaker 4: Okay, so Lumer, who if you don't know who she
- 45:04Speaker 4: has looked her up. I'm not getting into her history
- 45:06Speaker 4: or anything, but she said on his show that the
- 45:10Speaker 4: people prosecuting the Democrats prosecuting the January sixth insurrectionists are treasonists,
- 45:16Speaker 4: and that treasonists should be put to death. And then
- 45:21Speaker 4: the Harris tweet that they came out included that video
- 45:24Speaker 4: clip and talked about how Pool was an operative of
- 45:27Speaker 4: Donald Trump. I don't care about the Harris tweet necessarily
- 45:31Speaker 4: from the standpoint of whatever they said. They can infer
- 45:33Speaker 4: whatever they I'm not a lawyer. I don't really care
- 45:35Speaker 4: about that. The only thing that I found, and I
- 45:38Speaker 4: had to go digging through transcripts last night. There was
- 45:41Speaker 4: a point after that where he initially pushed back on
- 45:43Speaker 4: what Lumer said. He did say it was on Rumble,
- 45:46Speaker 4: not YouTube, because why is it not on YouTube? It's
- 45:49Speaker 4: against their policy. So they took it down.
- 45:50Speaker 16: Tim Poole took it down because it would destroy his
- 45:52Speaker 16: case because later in the show he says, I agree
- 45:56Speaker 16: with what she said and they should be put to death.
- 45:59Speaker 5: So this is this is where you know what real.
- 46:01Speaker 16: Quick though, nobody is saying he doesn't have a right
- 46:04Speaker 16: to say whatever he wants. Nobody is saying he doesn't
- 46:06Speaker 16: have a right to have nazis like Nick Fuente's or
- 46:09Speaker 16: nut jobs like Alex Jones. Nobody is saying that this
- 46:12Speaker 16: is not a First Amendment issue. In fact, he's the
- 46:15Speaker 16: plaintiff in a frivolous defamation case. Okay, he's suing the
- 46:21Speaker 16: vice president's campaign for something they tweeted. Now to sue somebody,
- 46:25Speaker 16: I mean to sue somebody over a tweet, especially if
- 46:28Speaker 16: you're a Trump supporter. If you're to sue somebody over
- 46:30Speaker 16: a tweet during a campaign, it is ridiculous. Now, you know,
- 46:34Speaker 16: I support the Seventh Amendment one hundred percent. Okay, I
- 46:37Speaker 16: support the First Amendment hundred percent, but I also support
- 46:39Speaker 16: the Seventh Amendment on hundred percent. I believe everybody has
- 46:41Speaker 16: a right to a jury trial. He has a right
- 46:43Speaker 16: to fare representation. But this type of case gives trial
- 46:47Speaker 16: lawyers a bad name. And this is the epitome of
- 46:50Speaker 16: a frivolous case. This is going to get laughed out
- 46:52Speaker 16: of court. And you know, and of course he has
- 46:55Speaker 16: a right to representation, but Delegate Acres had a right
- 46:58Speaker 16: not to take this type of case. This case makes
- 47:00Speaker 16: trial lawyers look bad and he knows it, and every
- 47:03Speaker 16: any member of the legislature, even those who are appointed
- 47:06Speaker 16: and not elected, you should understand that.
- 47:08Speaker 4: So that's where that's kind of where this lies. And
- 47:11Speaker 4: we we have a couple of minutes here before we
- 47:12Speaker 4: have to cut Mike loosen. I don't want to cut
- 47:14Speaker 4: you short. So it all comes into this, Uh. If
- 47:19Speaker 4: Temple recasts his opinion that he that he thought the
- 47:23Speaker 4: Democrats were traders are not. Look, that is for the
- 47:26Speaker 4: course to decide on how all of that plays out.
- 47:28Speaker 4: When JB was on the show, he also we have
- 47:30Speaker 4: how long is this break coming up? Matt? Is it
- 47:32Speaker 4: two minutes? Okay, so we have about we have about
- 47:35Speaker 4: two minutes here, Mike, and then we'll have to.
- 47:39Speaker 16: I stand by every word of our press release.
- 47:42Speaker 4: Gosh, what I wanted to ask you about is JB
- 47:44Speaker 4: did so you've kind of explained yourself as far as
- 47:47Speaker 4: like he said that, hey, this is just a negative
- 47:49Speaker 4: attack on me, and you you just now said, hey,
- 47:51Speaker 4: I think that it's a bad look, not necessarily that
- 47:54Speaker 4: Temple doesn't deserve representation. Is that is that kind of
- 47:57Speaker 4: where you come down to.
- 47:58Speaker 16: Take the case. He knows this is of friples, So
- 48:00Speaker 16: I mean there's one of two things. Okay, He's either
- 48:03Speaker 16: taking it for political purposes, which I'm not exactly sure
- 48:07Speaker 16: why he would because if you look at his district
- 48:09Speaker 16: it's not exactly Trump Lands.
- 48:11Speaker 4: Can also a good.
- 48:12Speaker 16: Part of Kanos City and in large part of South
- 48:16Speaker 16: Hills is not exactly Trump Country. It's a light blue districts.
- 48:19Speaker 16: I don't know how it would help him politically, and
- 48:21Speaker 16: only so the other explanation, he's doing it for the money. Now,
- 48:25Speaker 16: remember where Temple has been getting his money from, and
- 48:28Speaker 16: he's even admitted to that. Temple is admitted to taking
- 48:30Speaker 16: money from the Russians one hundred thousand dollars an episode,
- 48:33Speaker 16: So that's where he took his money from. So that
- 48:35Speaker 16: seems to me the only possible motivation for taking this
- 48:39Speaker 16: ridiculous case. It is going to get laughed out of court.
- 48:42Speaker 4: Uh, it's it's all the whole things. I hate the
- 48:46Speaker 4: way that this whole influence campaign works, the way that podcasters,
- 48:50Speaker 4: everybody that thinks that they're professionals getting duped into doing
- 48:54Speaker 4: ridiculous things.
- 48:55Speaker 16: I mean, he's a Temple's a grift or he had
- 48:57Speaker 16: his hand out, he got paid by Russians he's even
- 48:59Speaker 16: admitted to take in the money. He's saying he got
- 49:01Speaker 16: duped by the Row. He took one hundred thousand dollars
- 49:03Speaker 16: per episode to put out dangerous propaganda making it look
- 49:07Speaker 16: like Ukraine as the aggressor in a war when we
- 49:10Speaker 16: all know they were invaded by Putin. They were invaded
- 49:13Speaker 16: by Russia. And that's what makes this thing so serious
- 49:16Speaker 16: and so and I'll tell you what I'll put. I
- 49:18Speaker 16: don't know if I'm allowed to do this, I'd put
- 49:19Speaker 16: money on it. This case is going nowhere right And
- 49:22Speaker 16: if I've said anything untrue, if anyone's listening out there,
- 49:24Speaker 16: sue me for defamation. Bring it.
- 49:27Speaker 4: It's Mike Pushkin, the chair of the Westricia Democratic Party,
- 49:30Speaker 4: a delegate here in Kanawk County. We need to take
- 49:32Speaker 4: a break. I promised Mike. I give him as much
- 49:34Speaker 4: time as I could. So we need to take a
- 49:35Speaker 4: break and pay the bills. We'll be back after this.
