- 2:50Speaker 5: I get to walk my kids to school every morning,
- 2:52Speaker 5: and parents just get off your phones and slow down.

- 3:10Speaker 3: it coming up a little bit later on in the tragedy.
- 3:13Speaker 5: Yeah, but just prayers for that kid and their family
- 3:14Speaker 5: and everybody at that school.
- 3:15Speaker 3: That's indeed, you picked a good day to be here.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Apparently it's some sort of a healthfare going on in
- 3:20Speaker 3: the building.
- 3:20Speaker 4: Yeah. I think they're going to take my blood when
- 3:22Speaker 4: I got out of it.
- 3:22Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, I just saw these armies
- 3:24Speaker 3: of bodies is coming into the building here. And you know,
- 3:27Speaker 3: anytime that I see people entering a radio station with
- 3:32Speaker 3: giant boxes, I assume it's the fans, right, That's that's
- 3:35Speaker 3: what I'm assuming.
- 3:36Speaker 4: I would have assumed you would have assumed they were donuts.
- 3:38Speaker 3: No, No, I was assuming that we were getting.
- 3:41Speaker 4: Rated for you've maybe been eating less donuts.
- 3:43Speaker 3: I have been eating less donuts.
- 3:44Speaker 5: You look like you've slimmed down a little bit. This
- 3:46Speaker 5: is pay Dave a compliment day. Actually make fun of
- 3:49Speaker 5: you when I'm in here. There's one, well, there's one.
- 3:51Speaker 5: I can't find another one.
- 3:52Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't.
- 3:53Speaker 3: You don't have to do anything, al right. So you're
- 3:55Speaker 3: up in d C yesterday.
- 3:56Speaker 5: Yeah, and just for a point of reference, that we
- 3:58Speaker 5: did our Tony the Taylor promo. On the way up,
- 4:00Speaker 5: I was wearing my Tony the Tailor blazer and slacks
- 4:03Speaker 5: and I got an enormous amount of compliments on the tailoring.
- 4:06Speaker 4: So there you go. Check Tony out on.
- 4:08Speaker 3: All right, there you go, Tony, There you go, Tony.
- 4:10Speaker 3: We'll be sending you a bill about that.
- 4:13Speaker 5: But yeah, so we were in DC. Administrator Lee Zelden,
- 4:17Speaker 5: the administrator of the EPA, announced their rules concerning the
- 4:22Speaker 5: Waters of the United States rule and as everybody knows,
- 4:26Speaker 5: the Attorney General's Office in West Virginia under Governor Morrissey
- 4:30Speaker 5: led the Waters of the United States fight for five years.
- 4:33Speaker 5: And what happened was just for for some medification, is
- 4:36Speaker 5: that the term waters of the United States has been
- 4:39Speaker 5: somewhat bastardized by sort of the climate left, and it
- 4:43Speaker 5: was pushed to a place where you know it's raining
- 4:46Speaker 5: outside right now, where the little tiny stream that forms
- 4:48Speaker 5: when it rains going through your backyard, if you've got
- 4:50Speaker 5: a hillside behind you, and everybody in West Virginia does,
- 4:53Speaker 5: that would have been considered a water of the United.
- 4:55Speaker 3: St And just for clarification, he's not being facetious about that,
- 4:58Speaker 3: because this actually happened to a very are you a
- 5:00Speaker 3: good friend of mine at a business person in Putnam
- 5:02Speaker 3: County when they were battling over basically what was a
- 5:05Speaker 3: puddle in their backyard.
- 5:06Speaker 5: And it's happening to people in the Eastern Panhandle, and
- 5:08Speaker 5: it's happening to people in Montana and Idaho and you
- 5:11Speaker 5: name it. And the fines are up to thirty seven
- 5:14Speaker 5: thousand dollars per day for violations under the waters the
- 5:17Speaker 5: United States rules. So our office has been fighting that
- 5:20Speaker 5: forever and now I'm the Attorney General and because of
- 5:23Speaker 5: our leadership, the EPA looks to us in our office
- 5:25Speaker 5: and particularly our solicitors space for commentary on these rules.
- 5:29Speaker 5: So we were really proud to have been invited up
- 5:32Speaker 5: to this big announcement with the Governor. Got to spend
- 5:34Speaker 5: some good time with the Administrator and sort of talk
- 5:36Speaker 5: about the things that are happened in West Virginia. But
- 5:38Speaker 5: the long and the short of it is is he
- 5:40Speaker 5: is a incredibly thoughtful and common sense person, the administrator is,
- 5:45Speaker 5: and the rules that are coming out regarding waters the
- 5:47Speaker 5: United States are finally returning what is an important environmental
- 5:52Speaker 5: regulation into something that has common sense rules around it
- 5:56Speaker 5: that people can understand and that average people aren't going
- 5:59Speaker 5: to be prosecuted by the federal government for puddles in
- 6:03Speaker 5: their backyard. And this is going to be huge for
- 6:05Speaker 5: our mining industry. It's huge for our drilling industry, it's
- 6:08Speaker 5: huge for our manufacturing industry, it's huge for all of
- 6:11Speaker 5: our agricultural industry. Maybe the most are ranchers and farmers,
- 6:14Speaker 5: and we have a lot more agriculture in West Virginia
- 6:17Speaker 5: than people think. And you have our great Secretary Leonhard
- 6:20Speaker 5: on the air all the time, and when you really
- 6:22Speaker 5: look at it, the way our economy is, we have
- 6:24Speaker 5: so much more agriculture here than people think. And these
- 6:27Speaker 5: rules were making it impossible for American businesses to compete
- 6:31Speaker 5: on the world stage. And finally we have an EPA
- 6:34Speaker 5: with some common sense that's willing to allow not only
- 6:37Speaker 5: states to regulate these things because I promise West Virginia
- 6:39Speaker 5: cares about its air and water more than the people
- 6:42Speaker 5: in Washington do, but also give some certainty to our
- 6:44Speaker 5: businesses and families around what these rules really mean.
- 6:47Speaker 3: So what would you say to those And I happen
- 6:49Speaker 3: to go over to your social media page, social media
- 6:52Speaker 3: page or the Attorney General not necessarily of you prepe see.
- 6:55Speaker 4: A social media page. It's owned by the people of West.
- 6:58Speaker 3: That's what I was going to say. But you know
- 7:01Speaker 3: their comments on there as are frequently are said, well,
- 7:04Speaker 3: you know you're rolling back. I mean, you and others
- 7:07Speaker 3: want to roll back and turn back years of progress
- 7:10Speaker 3: that we've had with the with ecology and the climate
- 7:12Speaker 3: and things of that nature.
- 7:14Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean if you think rolling back regulations that
- 7:17Speaker 5: completely stifle innovation, business growth, manufacturing growth, job growth, and
- 7:23Speaker 5: unfairly punish families and small businesses is rolling back.
- 7:26Speaker 4: While also the new rules.
- 7:29Speaker 5: Continue to allow us to regulate what goes into our
- 7:31Speaker 5: rivers and streams. But rolling something back indicates that there's
- 7:35Speaker 5: a nefarious purpose. And that's something that the extreme climate
- 7:38Speaker 5: left and people on the left do all the time,
- 7:41Speaker 5: is they try to paint anyone who wants rational, regular
- 7:45Speaker 5: environmental protections as some kind of a lunatic who wants
- 7:48Speaker 5: to poison everybody, And that just couldn't be further from
- 7:51Speaker 5: the truth. And so it's really important for people like
- 7:53Speaker 5: me who believe in our mining and our drilling and
- 7:55Speaker 5: our manufacturing industries to stand firm and say, look, this
- 7:58Speaker 5: is not We cannot continue to let the left push
- 8:03Speaker 5: the middle so far left that nobody can do anything.
- 8:05Speaker 5: The middle is right where the middle is supposed to be,
- 8:07Speaker 5: and that is we have to make more electricity, We
- 8:10Speaker 5: have to grow our manufacturing sector. We have to protect
- 8:12Speaker 5: our ranchers and farmers, and we have to ensure that
- 8:14Speaker 5: America is able to do the things it needs to
- 8:16Speaker 5: do to compete on the world stage. And with unreasonable,
- 8:19Speaker 5: unfair regulations like the waters of the United States had become,
- 8:22Speaker 5: we cannot. And places like Russia and China and developing
- 8:26Speaker 5: nations have no environmental controls at all, and so it
- 8:29Speaker 5: is actually irrational for us to push the energy production
- 8:32Speaker 5: of the world onto places that truly don't care about
- 8:35Speaker 5: the environment. Like I said before, Russia and China, we
- 8:37Speaker 5: should be burning all the coal that we can find here,
- 8:40Speaker 5: burning all the gas that we can find here, building
- 8:42Speaker 5: all the manufacturing that we can here, because we are
- 8:45Speaker 5: great stewards of the land. We are people who trust
- 8:48Speaker 5: and value science and in the ways that we need
- 8:51Speaker 5: to protect the communities. But America is a shining light
- 8:54Speaker 5: in the world. It's a place where we promote societal value,
- 8:58Speaker 5: where we promote human value. And when we do well,
- 9:01Speaker 5: everyone else does well. And we do environmental protection better
- 9:04Speaker 5: than anybody in the world. And we should be leading
- 9:06Speaker 5: the world in all of the things I just talked about.

- 9:32Speaker 3: said this Jabia Ford.
- 9:34Speaker 4: Did you see that they canceled the Ford Lightning did.
- 9:38Speaker 3: I did not know.
- 9:39Speaker 5: So the electric Ford truck will not be made anymore. Yeah,
- 9:41Speaker 5: it's the weirdest thing that didn't work. Yeah, yeah, you know,
- 9:44Speaker 5: I've ever thought. I was having a conversation not long.
- 9:47Speaker 5: It was a couple of years ago, and it was
- 9:49Speaker 5: not what the folks of generations forward. Okay, I'll say
- 9:51Speaker 5: it was another for another Ford. It was another Ford
- 9:53Speaker 5: dealership and we were doing a little promotion there with them,
- 9:56Speaker 5: and they were talking about the lightning and the guy
- 10:00Speaker 5: with one of the sales managers was telling me that
- 10:01Speaker 5: they had sold one and the guy decided, you know,
- 10:03Speaker 5: the customer decided.
- 10:04Speaker 3: Yeah, after like a month or so, he didn't want it,
- 10:07Speaker 3: so he brought it back, as sometimes people will do,
- 10:11Speaker 3: and he was it found out that it depreciated, as
- 10:15Speaker 3: a lot of some vehicles do, appreciated by about fifty
- 10:18Speaker 3: percent the minute he drove it off a lot. Now
- 10:19Speaker 3: I'm not blaming electric vehicles for that. I am just
- 10:22Speaker 3: saying in that particular case, it was a forward lighting.
- 10:25Speaker 5: And in my particular case, I have a diesel pickup
- 10:27Speaker 5: and you know, rolling dinosaur bones, the depreciation is far less.
- 10:32Speaker 5: People will buy a diesel truck long after they're.
- 10:34Speaker 3: Mate, all right, I want to go back to something
- 10:36Speaker 3: about the environment. I have said this before, and I
- 10:39Speaker 3: come from a coal mining background. People know my family
- 10:42Speaker 3: very invested in the coal industry. I have said before
- 10:47Speaker 3: that coal miners are the ultimate environmentalists. And I had
- 10:52Speaker 3: been on a lot of Reclaimed Mind properties, and I'll
- 10:55Speaker 3: tell you just a quick quick story when I was
- 10:57Speaker 3: when I was in state government, we had a group
- 10:59Speaker 3: of students Harvard. They came down to southern West Virginia.
- 11:02Speaker 3: We took them out on reclaim Mind property and we
- 11:04Speaker 3: were walking around and we didn't tell them it was
- 11:07Speaker 3: reclaim Mint property. We just said, isn't this beautiful? And
- 11:10Speaker 3: they were deer and everything else. That you're standing on
- 11:12Speaker 3: service mining, your former service mining. They couldn't believe it.
- 11:16Speaker 3: I said, it's because you've only listened to one.
- 11:18Speaker 4: Source, that's right.
- 11:19Speaker 3: So what this is coal miners are the ultimate and
- 11:21Speaker 3: environmental You.
- 11:21Speaker 5: Will very infrequently find a group of people that enjoy
- 11:24Speaker 5: the outdoors more than coal miners, right, And so when
- 11:28Speaker 5: they're not at work, a large portion of them spend
- 11:30Speaker 5: time fishing and hunting and hiking and spending time outside
- 11:33Speaker 5: with their kids.
- 11:33Speaker 4: Because that's part of what West Virginia is.
- 11:36Speaker 5: And I think it really is inappropriate and unfair for
- 11:39Speaker 5: the left to label those who are trying to do
- 11:42Speaker 5: these incredibly important jobs as you know, those who want
- 11:45Speaker 5: to poison the environment, because it just isn't true. And
- 11:48Speaker 5: you are so right. You can take a helicopter ride
- 11:51Speaker 5: down over any part of the coal fields and the
- 11:54Speaker 5: active mind sight. Sure they look like an active mind sight,
- 11:57Speaker 5: but it's real hard to find the ones that used
- 11:59Speaker 5: to be mined.
- 12:00Speaker 3: Li likened it to walking into an e r in
- 12:03Speaker 3: the middle of an app and decked me, you know,
- 12:05Speaker 3: or is any kind of surgical procedure. Oh yeah, it
- 12:06Speaker 3: looks like it looks really really rough right now, But
- 12:08Speaker 3: come back, you know, come back when it when, when
- 12:10Speaker 3: it's done.
- 12:11Speaker 5: Speaking of coal mining, what an unbelievable tragedy over the
- 12:14Speaker 5: weekend as well. Prayers for everybody in Nicholas County. And
- 12:17Speaker 5: what a hero, uh, what a hero he was. I mean,
- 12:21Speaker 5: it's hard to imagine being the kind of guy who
- 12:25Speaker 5: gets every single one of your guys out of a
- 12:26Speaker 5: really dangerous situation, to your own peril and to his family.
- 12:30Speaker 5: I just prayers for everybody involved. But the story of
- 12:35Speaker 5: his heroism will live on for it.
- 12:36Speaker 3: I knew, and I didn't say this on the air,
- 12:38Speaker 3: but I knew. When I found out and it started
- 12:41Speaker 3: get information started getting out of JB that he was
- 12:43Speaker 3: a foreman. I told a couple of people off the air,
- 12:46Speaker 3: let me tell you what happened. And I was one
- 12:48Speaker 3: of the thoughts. I was one hundred percent right. It's
- 12:50Speaker 3: just like a you know, it's just like a high
- 12:51Speaker 3: ranking military official, you know, lieutenant the arm It's that
- 12:56Speaker 3: same it's that same mindset you guys go out first.
- 12:58Speaker 3: I knew immediately what happen up in your You're absolute
- 13:01Speaker 3: right about the what else on your radar?
- 13:02Speaker 5: These days, Purdue filed for bankruptcy again, Purdue Pharma, as
- 13:06Speaker 5: they continue to try to skirt their obligations in the
- 13:08Speaker 5: opioid world. This this current bankruptcy will not affect West
- 13:12Speaker 5: Virginia settlement, but it is just frustrating to watch these
- 13:15Speaker 5: these these folks do everything in their power to try
- 13:18Speaker 5: to avoid paying for the damages that they cause. You know,
- 13:22Speaker 5: we're working on a couple of new opioid cases with
- 13:25Speaker 5: what are called pharmacy benefit managers who were sort of
- 13:28Speaker 5: the the gray, the gray mattered middlemen who were right
- 13:33Speaker 5: in the middle of the opioid crisis, and we're making
- 13:35Speaker 5: some good progress on those cases. We've just are Our
- 13:39Speaker 5: office is crazy busy getting ready for January. We've got
- 13:42Speaker 5: an argument in front of the United States Supreme Court
- 13:44Speaker 5: on the BPG case, where we're going to defend West
- 13:47Speaker 5: Virginia's common sense law that make sure that children play
- 13:50Speaker 5: sports against kids who have the same biological sex that
- 13:53Speaker 5: they have. We know it's unfair for for boys to
- 13:58Speaker 5: be playing against girls in sports. And I don't know
- 13:59Speaker 5: if you saw this, but the International Olympic Committee just
- 14:02Speaker 5: last week banned biological males from playing in female sports
- 14:06Speaker 5: in the Olympics. And what we're seeing is the world
- 14:09Speaker 5: is starting to understand the insanity that was this sort
- 14:13Speaker 5: of free for all where women's sports was being overrun
- 14:17Speaker 5: by folks who had a different biological sex than the
- 14:22Speaker 5: girls who were playing. And so we're really really excited
- 14:24Speaker 5: about that case. We're really buckling down and for the
- 14:27Speaker 5: next six weeks or so, our office will be very
- 14:29Speaker 5: laser focused on making sure we get that case right
- 14:32Speaker 5: in the most important court in the land.
- 14:35Speaker 3: Any big Thanksgiving plans, Well, we own a store.
- 14:38Speaker 5: So Thanksgiving is generally me watching my wife stress out
- 14:42Speaker 5: about Black Friday cooking dinner all day.
- 14:45Speaker 4: So I always do dinner, but we usually keep it
- 14:47Speaker 4: pretty small.
- 14:48Speaker 3: You do the cooking.
- 14:48Speaker 4: I do the cooking every night.
- 14:49Speaker 3: All right, what's on the menu? I mean, So I have.
- 14:52Speaker 4: A tradition of Thanksgiving tradition.
- 14:54Speaker 5: My mom died about eleven years ago, and she used
- 14:56Speaker 5: to make this sausage stuffing that I just absolutely loved.
- 14:59Speaker 3: And she said, I just gained all my weight back
- 15:01Speaker 3: by that's just the best.
- 15:02Speaker 5: And she sent me the recipe on an email about
- 15:06Speaker 5: I don't know, maybe a year before she died, so
- 15:09Speaker 5: that I could fix it. And every single Thanksgiving, I
- 15:11Speaker 5: opened one of the last emails I got from him
- 15:13Speaker 5: mom and just read it in her voice to myself
- 15:15Speaker 5: and fix the stuffing. Everything else is pretty pretty typical.
- 15:18Speaker 5: But we do, you know, massed potatoes, green beans, always turkey.
- 15:23Speaker 5: Sometimes we throw in some steaks if I have time.
- 15:27Speaker 5: Sausage stuffing, and then my wife loves a sort of

- 18:41Speaker 4: Correct?
- 18:42Speaker 8: It was Marine?
- 18:42Speaker 3: He's actually was making an analogy saying yes, similar to that.
- 18:47Speaker 8: I hopefully, hopefully the good nature of it came through,
- 18:50Speaker 8: but I was giving him a hard time.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Rob Reel and don't ever say former marine around Reel.

- 19:21Speaker 3: we're a couple of days away from Turkey drop here
- 19:23Speaker 3: and it is health day out here. Have you seen
- 19:25Speaker 3: all these folks in white anytime in a radio sea?
- 19:28Speaker 3: As I said, I see people with bringing in file
- 19:30Speaker 3: boxes of files, I think, well, that's it, we're getting
- 19:33Speaker 3: shut down. But then when I see white coats, I think,
- 19:36Speaker 3: oh yeah, we've finally gone too far. They're locking us up.
- 19:38Speaker 10: Yeah, they're bringing us jackets where the nice, warm, comfy
- 19:40Speaker 10: give you the hug sleeves crossing the front self hugging jackets. Yeah,
- 19:44Speaker 10: so uh yeah, I think they're gonna I think they're
- 19:46Speaker 10: gonna try to take my blood later.
- 19:48Speaker 8: But you know my blood type is gravy. Yeah, so yeah,
- 19:51Speaker 8: we'll see how that goes.
- 19:52Speaker 3: Speaking of gravy, to keep that up for you, A
- 19:54Speaker 3: couple of days away here from our Turkey drive.
- 19:57Speaker 10: We are Thursday here at our parking lot at our
- 20:00Speaker 10: Virginia Street East studios. If you're a GPS plugger inner,
- 20:04Speaker 10: it's eleven eleven Virginia Street East. Our third annual drive
- 20:08Speaker 10: through Turkey Drop.
- 20:09Speaker 8: We have teamed up with.
- 20:10Speaker 10: Union Mission collecting frozen turkeys and cash and monetary donations.
- 20:16Speaker 10: I'll say it that way, because not only can we
- 20:17Speaker 10: do cash and check, but I just got word that
- 20:20Speaker 10: we will have a QR code set up that you'll
- 20:22Speaker 10: be able to scan and you can safely securely make
- 20:25Speaker 10: a credit card donation or debit card if that's the
- 20:27Speaker 10: way you like to roll financially. But we would love
- 20:30Speaker 10: for you to roll through our parking lot and hand
- 20:32Speaker 10: us a frozen turkey or a monetary donation so that
- 20:35Speaker 10: every family can have a happy holiday meal.
- 20:39Speaker 3: Indeed, I got to get me one of them QR codes. Sometimes,
- 20:41Speaker 3: I'm going to give me a QR code and a
- 20:43Speaker 3: TikTok at one of these points.
- 20:44Speaker 8: Yeah, I think you would be huge on TikTok.
- 20:48Speaker 3: They get me huge anyway.
- 20:50Speaker 10: But no, you were talking with the AG about having
- 20:52Speaker 10: lost some weights, So there you go.
- 20:54Speaker 8: I would like to try that sausage stuffing. Although I
- 20:56Speaker 8: think I have.
- 20:57Speaker 10: I think I've probably ruled out any favorable treatment from
- 21:00Speaker 10: the AG's office at this point.
- 21:02Speaker 3: I think that anything that happened in your in your
- 21:05Speaker 3: life probably would have ruled out anyway from hanging out
- 21:07Speaker 3: with the attorneyship. Probably, I'm yeah, I'm not really allowed
- 21:11Speaker 3: to be that close to a lawyer who's not mine,
- 21:13Speaker 3: I don't think. But in all seriousness, I appreciate his
- 21:17Speaker 3: recognition of Marine Steve Lipscomb. Knowing that he put others
- 21:25Speaker 3: ahead of himself is While it is wonderfully admirable, it
- 21:31Speaker 3: is not the least bit surprising.
- 21:32Speaker 8: Knowing that a marine would.
- 21:33Speaker 10: Do that, Knowing that a West Virginia, I was going
- 21:36Speaker 10: to say, would do that. It's a wonderful intersection of
- 21:40Speaker 10: West Virginians and Marines that we go literally the extra
- 21:43Speaker 10: mile for our friends and neighbors. And it's been a
- 21:47Speaker 10: particularly tough year for folks in need. I talk about
- 21:51Speaker 10: the stats a lot that one in six folks are
- 21:54Speaker 10: food insecure, one in four children. Those numbers are actually
- 21:58Speaker 10: worse in West Virginia, and you pile the government shut
- 22:02Speaker 10: down on top of that, and it's just it's been
- 22:05Speaker 10: really hard starting this fourth quarter of the year, going
- 22:08Speaker 10: into the holidays, and so if we can make it
- 22:10Speaker 10: just a little bit better with Union Mission, that's our
- 22:13Speaker 10: goal on Thursday.
- 22:14Speaker 3: And I think sometimes again we're talking Robberyo from ninety
- 22:18Speaker 3: six to one KWS. I think sometimes people get a
- 22:21Speaker 3: little caught up in the words when they use terms
- 22:25Speaker 3: like food insecure or maybe even a homeless, because I mean,
- 22:29Speaker 3: the definition of homeless doesn't always necessarily mean you don't
- 22:33Speaker 3: have a home or a place to stay. What it
- 22:36Speaker 3: can mean in many cases, and we talk to the
- 22:38Speaker 3: folks at the United Way and Union Mission all these
- 22:42Speaker 3: places about this. It sometimes means that when you wake
- 22:45Speaker 3: up in the morning on one couch, you may not
- 22:49Speaker 3: return to that couch tonight. You're looking for a place
- 22:51Speaker 3: to crash. Under the definition that's technically homeless.
- 22:54Speaker 10: Yeah, and I don't like to nitpick too much on terminology.
- 22:59Speaker 10: The the preferred these days is displaced persons for that reason,
- 23:04Speaker 10: because somebody may be CouchSurfing, somebody may be living in
- 23:07Speaker 10: a vehicle. Somebody may be doing two weeks at the
- 23:12Speaker 10: sister's house and then they go to the cousin's house
- 23:14Speaker 10: for three weeks. You know, moms with kids. It's not
- 23:19Speaker 10: just the folks you see on the street and under
- 23:22Speaker 10: overpasses and those sorts of things. And they're a great
- 23:26Speaker 10: number of those people who are working, who are working
- 23:29Speaker 10: full time and can't seem to get enough momentum going
- 23:35Speaker 10: to get everything they need for themselves and their families.
- 23:38Speaker 10: And so to be part of helping those folks along,
- 23:44Speaker 10: we could be a great blessing to those folks. And again,
- 23:47Speaker 10: we're going to start things Thursday at seven in the morning,
- 23:50Speaker 10: go to about six o'clock at night.
- 23:52Speaker 3: We'll all be out there at one point. You'll be
- 23:53Speaker 3: out there for the most part, probably, but you know,
- 23:56Speaker 3: for V. One hundred to beat the Mountain, we're August hs.
- 24:00Speaker 3: We're all going to be floating in and out of there.
- 24:02Speaker 3: So it's opportunity to kind of come hang out with
- 24:03Speaker 3: us a little bit. And we you know, from time
- 24:06Speaker 3: to time may have a random prize that we throw in.
- 24:08Speaker 10: Yeah we uh, this is this is empty the prize
- 24:11Speaker 10: closet time of year. So there, you know, the Warren
- 24:15Speaker 10: Zeiders is coming in concert on Thursday night.
- 24:17Speaker 8: I'm not exactly promising tickets, but there might be some
- 24:20Speaker 8: left over. We might have some.
- 24:22Speaker 10: Hey, I can't go to the show, get my tickets away,
- 24:23Speaker 10: right or you know, the t shirts and koozies and
- 24:26Speaker 10: those sorts of things. And you know, I can't even
- 24:28Speaker 10: speak for the other stations in the building, but they're
- 24:30Speaker 10: probably in a similar situation that you know what, we
- 24:33Speaker 10: we got stuff we need to let go. So a
- 24:35Speaker 10: little extra something something for you for stopping by and
- 24:37Speaker 10: helping our friends and neighbors.
- 24:38Speaker 3: Seven am til six pm and again our parking lot
- 24:41Speaker 3: here and get me, it's not a circle, as you
- 24:44Speaker 3: correct me every time.
- 24:45Speaker 8: I was married to a math teacher for fifteen years.
- 24:47Speaker 8: It's an ellipse. It's not a circle. It's an ellipse.
- 24:50Speaker 3: Okay, So so basically it's a circle.
- 24:53Speaker 10: So not for nothing, it is it is married to
- 24:57Speaker 10: a scorpio support day.
- 24:59Speaker 3: So there there are.
- 25:00Speaker 10: Two women in this world to whom I owe a
- 25:01Speaker 10: great apology.
- 25:04Speaker 3: Sorry, So you pulled in our parking lot here eleven
- 25:07Speaker 3: eleven Virginia Street, East, charlest Again. We're just up the
- 25:09Speaker 3: street from the Presbyterie Church, Charleston Catholic High School. Yep,
- 25:12Speaker 3: and you pull in and you don't even have to
- 25:14Speaker 3: get out of your car. It's not gonna be there's
- 25:17Speaker 3: a chance of rain on Thursday, but it's not gonna
- 25:18Speaker 3: be like it is today where it's like, it's not
- 25:21Speaker 3: gonna be. It's gonna be a little bit warmer too. Yeah,
- 25:22Speaker 3: that's the thing. So you just pull right up and
- 25:25Speaker 3: our our staff will be out there. We'll have the
- 25:27Speaker 3: folks adjacent and the folks from Union Mission. We'll have
- 25:30Speaker 3: a staff out there as well. We'll be taking those
- 25:32Speaker 3: turkeys or as you said, monetary donations throne. And a
- 25:34Speaker 3: pro tip if you are coming in from uh not down,
- 25:38Speaker 3: if you're not a downtown Charleston person, maybe you're coming
- 25:40Speaker 3: in from the dunbar, don't take the Virginia Street exit
- 25:44Speaker 3: to get to us. Go ahead and swing all the
- 25:46Speaker 3: way around to Leon Sullivan there's a lot of work
- 25:48Speaker 3: on Virginia Street right now, and it's kind of confusing
- 25:50Speaker 3: with the one lane here.
- 25:51Speaker 8: In the one lane there.
- 25:52Speaker 10: Leon Sullivan is the cross street, and when you take
- 25:55Speaker 10: it to Virginia, you take a left because that's the
- 25:57Speaker 10: only way you can go one way streets.
- 25:59Speaker 8: And just in theory, in theory.
- 26:02Speaker 3: I mean, how many times a week do we see
- 26:04Speaker 3: somebody going the wrong way? It's at least twice a week.
- 26:07Speaker 3: I see wrong way on a I walk a lot
- 26:08Speaker 3: in downtown Charleston. At least twice a week. I see
- 26:11Speaker 3: wrong way on a one way daily. I see people
- 26:13Speaker 3: run red lights or the no turn on red signs.
- 26:16Speaker 3: So and yet West Virginia.
- 26:20Speaker 10: Drivers are some of the best I've encountered over my
- 26:22Speaker 10: many travels.
- 26:24Speaker 8: So it's bad everywhere I worked.
- 26:26Speaker 3: I worked in Ohio. I'm fully aware.
- 26:28Speaker 10: Oh so now do they do They still make you
- 26:30Speaker 10: stop and disengage your turn signals when you cross the border,
- 26:34Speaker 10: when you cross the Silver Memorial Bridge.
- 26:35Speaker 3: Yeah, that's good to know.
- 26:36Speaker 8: They still try not to go that way.
- 26:39Speaker 3: But so people can drop off cash, we'll have the
- 26:42Speaker 3: QR code that they can scan. Yes, but Turkey's way
- 26:45Speaker 3: to go and we talked about it yesterday. There are
- 26:48Speaker 3: several places as we get closer to Thanksgiving, you know
- 26:51Speaker 3: this will be when we do this will be a
- 26:52Speaker 3: week from Thanksgiving Day, people are starting to mark the
- 26:54Speaker 3: turkeys down. And we've had people that have this is
- 26:57Speaker 3: what I love about these things. Rob when we've done
- 26:59Speaker 3: this or done the other promotions that we do, want
- 27:01Speaker 3: people that will come in and give us five dollars
- 27:04Speaker 3: and just say here, I wanted I heard you guys
- 27:06Speaker 3: on a radio.
- 27:08Speaker 8: Uh, this is all I could give.
- 27:09Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 27:10Speaker 3: Wonderful, wonderful.
- 27:12Speaker 10: At least at least once every time that we do this,
- 27:15Speaker 10: we get somebody who was like, I just got I
- 27:18Speaker 10: got in the car, I was going to make a
- 27:19Speaker 10: coffee run. I was going to go to you know,
- 27:20Speaker 10: I was going to go to fancy pants coffee and
- 27:22Speaker 10: I heard you guys on the radio, and I was
- 27:24Speaker 10: going to spend this five bucks on that.
- 27:26Speaker 8: I'd rather spend it on this.
- 27:27Speaker 10: Yeah, West Virginians caring for West Virginians.
- 27:30Speaker 3: And then we've had people that have come in with
- 27:33Speaker 3: a truck or something with the boxes of turkeys that
- 27:35Speaker 3: have said, well, I went out to you know, X
- 27:37Speaker 3: store and I just went ahead and picked up ten.
- 27:39Speaker 3: Here you go.
- 27:40Speaker 10: I somebody last year rolls up in an suv. Yeah,
- 27:44Speaker 10: I got a couple in the back for you. Let
- 27:45Speaker 10: me pop the hatch and the thing swings open. And
- 27:48Speaker 10: I'm not exaggerating twenty.
- 27:50Speaker 3: Five okay, because there was somebody that did that from
- 27:55Speaker 3: Clay County. I remember, Yeah, just selling it like I
- 27:57Speaker 3: got a couple of turkeys and there's two days back there.
- 28:01Speaker 12: Yea.
- 28:02Speaker 10: So even just the humble understatement of West Virginians as
- 28:05Speaker 10: we help one another is impressive.
- 28:07Speaker 3: And I will I will mention that Jason Quintreil is
- 28:10Speaker 3: actually going to be on the show tomorrow because he's
- 28:13Speaker 3: gonna be talking about the drumstick Dash, which is going
- 28:15Speaker 3: to be happening with Tom. Men turn into folks at
- 28:17Speaker 3: Chick fil A. But we'll drag you in here for
- 28:19Speaker 3: that probably.
- 28:19Speaker 10: And I gotta I gotta give a little love to
- 28:21Speaker 10: Tom and Chick fil A mccorkorl Avenue. They're going to
- 28:23Speaker 10: feed our people tomorrow so that I don't even have
- 28:28Speaker 10: to go anywhere to get some lunch. They're taking care
- 28:30Speaker 10: of our folks. Chick fil A always does a great
- 28:32Speaker 10: job with helping out with these drop events that we.
- 28:35Speaker 3: Do and Tom and the crew frequently. I'm not again,
- 28:38Speaker 3: I'm not going to promise anything like you said with
- 28:40Speaker 3: the Warren Zyder tickets, But in the past we've had
- 28:42Speaker 3: a couple of coupons here and there. We just kind
- 28:44Speaker 3: of choose random people and say, here, go get you
- 28:46Speaker 3: a biscuit.
- 28:47Speaker 10: He always seems to have a pocket full of those.
- 28:49Speaker 10: Oh yeah, not a pocket full of biscuits.
- 28:51Speaker 3: By the way, which was a bass player for say
- 28:54Speaker 3: which was the name of one of my bands.
- 28:55Speaker 10: It was the bass player for Pocket Full of Biscuits.
- 28:57Speaker 10: But we opened for Natasha Bettingfield. You know what, if
- 29:00Speaker 10: you know, you know.
- 29:01Speaker 3: You know what would be really cool because I know
- 29:04Speaker 3: you're probably gonna be at the Warren Zeider's concert. Maybe
- 29:07Speaker 3: maybe we'll see, We'll see how much gas I have
- 29:09Speaker 3: in the town after being out eleven hours in a
- 29:11Speaker 3: Turkey Say cool, as if we could try to get
- 29:13Speaker 3: Warren Zeyders to stop by.
- 29:14Speaker 8: Here, I mean from your lips to his managements.
- 29:18Speaker 3: People ears all right, So I mean I'm just throwing
- 29:20Speaker 3: it out there, if we could, how cool would that
- 29:22Speaker 3: be if we got Warren Zyders, who one of the
- 29:24Speaker 3: top up and coming young country superstars out there. If
- 29:27Speaker 3: we had him stop by the turkey drop, we call.
- 29:30Speaker 8: Him one of the young guns.
- 29:31Speaker 10: I mean, I don't know when they're rolling into town.
- 29:33Speaker 10: I don't know at whom to holler. Okay, we might
- 29:35Speaker 10: be able to figure that out between now and.
- 29:38Speaker 3: You know, I'm sure he would love to meet Rob Reel.
- 29:40Speaker 10: Yes, champing at the bit for because he'll probably come
- 29:43Speaker 10: in and say, were you the idiot that walked to Morgantown.
- 29:46Speaker 10: I'm just gonna get that put on my business. Guess yes,
- 29:48Speaker 10: I'm the idiot that way.

- 36:17Speaker 3: and welcome to the show.
- 36:19Speaker 8: Hey, good morning, how you doing doing fine?
- 36:21Speaker 3: Health fair day around here. Everybody's just running.
- 36:23Speaker 16: Around our annual flu shot white coat side.
- 36:26Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, all that. So we've got a serious news
- 36:30Speaker 3: story you want to hit on this morning, Go ahead. Yeah.
- 36:32Speaker 16: So there was, you know, during drop off today at
- 36:35Speaker 16: Edgewood Elementary School in the Edroid neighborhood of Charleston, there
- 36:40Speaker 16: was a young personal child that was struck by vehicle.
- 36:45Speaker 16: We'll be getting more information, i'm sure from city police,
- 36:47Speaker 16: but the initial reports is that the student, the child
- 36:55Speaker 16: suffered a head injury there. So, just like it aw schools,
- 36:59Speaker 16: there's a lot of traffic. You know, there's there's crossing
- 37:03Speaker 16: guards who do a great job, but you know, there's
- 37:06Speaker 16: a lot of back and forth there. So we don't
- 37:07Speaker 16: know all the circumstances of that, but we we do
- 37:10Speaker 16: know that that happened this morning right in front of
- 37:12Speaker 16: the school here in Charleston. The other thing we're working
- 37:16Speaker 16: on is some pretty positive economic news that came from Toyota.
- 37:22Speaker 16: Toyota has announced today a major expansion of its plants
- 37:28Speaker 16: in the US, including the Toyota plant in Buffalo. They're
- 37:36Speaker 16: going to add eighty jobs there and the production of
- 37:39Speaker 16: this particular expansion is going to be finished by twenty
- 37:43Speaker 16: twenty seven. But they say it's it's it's because there
- 37:47Speaker 16: are additional there's additional consumers want hybrid vehicles, you know,
- 37:55Speaker 16: and so you know that's what's happening there because they
- 37:58Speaker 16: make transactionals there. They make the transmissions, you know, the
- 38:03Speaker 16: things for the for the rear of the transmission or
- 38:07Speaker 16: so they're going to invest more than four hundred million dollars.
- 38:11Speaker 16: So more than half or nearly half of the overall
- 38:14Speaker 16: investment that Toyota is going to make nine hundred and
- 38:16Speaker 16: twelve million dollars is going to be at the Buffalo plant,
- 38:21Speaker 16: and I think it's about four hundred and twenty three
- 38:23Speaker 16: million dollars at the Buffalo plant. So you're talking a
- 38:25Speaker 16: large expansion, eighty jobs, and of course all the automation
- 38:29Speaker 16: that goes with that. So that's positive news. They released
- 38:33Speaker 16: that information yesterday to the medium, and we held it
- 38:35Speaker 16: until they were ready to They had it embargoed at
- 38:38Speaker 16: toil eight o'clock this morning. But they have other plants Kentucky.
- 38:41Speaker 16: I think Georgetown is Mississippi, Tennessee. But again the Buffalo
- 38:47Speaker 16: plants getting the largest investment on that. And we'll hear
- 38:50Speaker 16: more about that coming up with the Western Toyo West
- 38:51Speaker 16: Virginia president is going to be on talk line, right. Yeah,
- 38:54Speaker 16: so that's positive news. It's eighty good jobs.
- 38:57Speaker 3: Yeah. And I'll say this about Toyota is somebody who
- 39:01Speaker 3: you know has I've lived in Putnam County now for
- 39:03Speaker 3: the last eleven years. You couldn't ask for a better
- 39:05Speaker 3: community partner. I mean, anything that's going on in Putnam
- 39:10Speaker 3: County really in this part of the state, Toyota's got
- 39:12Speaker 3: their name on, you know. And I don't mean it
- 39:14Speaker 3: for advertising purposes. I mean they're just saying, you know,
- 39:17Speaker 3: whether it's in the schools or so on and so forth,
- 39:19Speaker 3: they're just stuff. They're very good community partners and have
- 39:22Speaker 3: been ever since they opened.
- 39:23Speaker 16: And Carol Miller, the congress woman, made a note in
- 39:26Speaker 16: her statement today reacting to this that you know, and
- 39:30Speaker 16: we did this story a few weeks ago, I probably
- 39:33Speaker 16: a couple of months ago. Now that they're building their
- 39:35Speaker 16: own childcare center there. You know, they're building a thing
- 39:39Speaker 16: for their workers. You know that there'll be a full
- 39:41Speaker 16: childcare center on the campus in Buffalo and you know,
- 39:46Speaker 16: to try to meet the needs of the workers. And
- 39:48Speaker 16: of course new Core is doing that too. There'll be
- 39:49Speaker 16: a full childcare center at the new Course site not
- 39:52Speaker 16: far from there in Mason County where their new plan
- 39:55Speaker 16: is going up. So yeah, that's good news anytime Toyotry
- 39:57Speaker 16: adds and we've cut a lot of I tell you what,
- 40:00Speaker 16: there have been more stories about Toyota adding jobs than
- 40:05Speaker 16: there ever been about them cutting jobs.
- 40:07Speaker 8: There.
- 40:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 40:08Speaker 13: Uh.
- 40:08Speaker 16: The one time that they struggled is when everyone else struggling,
- 40:11Speaker 16: and that was doing COVID. But they they did just
- 40:13Speaker 16: about everything they could do, you know, to keep everybody
- 40:16Speaker 16: on and keep everybody working, and they came up with
- 40:18Speaker 16: they came up with some pretty creative ways to be
- 40:19Speaker 16: able to do that, and they were able to so
- 40:22Speaker 16: all right, they have it all right.
- 40:24Speaker 3: Well again, And if you if you've attempted to access

- 46:29Speaker 3: the internet is talking about Donald Trump and his relations
- 46:32Speaker 3: with Bubba Who is Bubba?
- 46:34Speaker 2: Is it?
- 46:34Speaker 3: Bill Clinton is jiling Maxwell's horse. Internet is talking about it, Dave,
- 46:38Speaker 3: So you're going to talk about it on the show.
- 46:40Speaker 4: Right.
- 46:40Speaker 3: That's about close that I'm going to get right there
- 46:43Speaker 3: because it's a family show. And I joked last week
- 46:46Speaker 3: about the FCC being out with the government shutdown. Well
- 46:50Speaker 3: they got catch it up to do, so they're listening
- 46:51Speaker 3: to the show again. Texa's highest rates of colon cancer

- 47:02Speaker 3: is helping to poison the future of America. I had
- 47:08Speaker 3: Danny Jones on the show yesterday, and his book is out,
- 47:12Speaker 3: and he was on the show yesterday talking about it.
- 47:14Speaker 3: I started reading it last night and I got to
- 47:17Speaker 3: say a little plug for Danny's book here. It's pretty good.
- 47:20Speaker 3: I'm up to the Mike rourkeiars now. I had to
- 47:24Speaker 3: put it down though, because I had an appointment to
- 47:26Speaker 3: watch the Cowboys be Down the Raiders last night. So
- 47:29Speaker 3: I would urge you to get yourself a copy. They're
- 47:32Speaker 3: available at Taylor Books.
- 47:33Speaker 11: Now.
- 47:33Speaker 3: Danny's going to be doing a book signing down there
- 47:35Speaker 3: Saturday afternoon at two o'clock. It is a good book,
- 47:38Speaker 3: so definitely go get it. Uh Texas, Dave, this major
- 47:45Speaker 3: internet outage smells of a cyber attack. Hopefully it's assumed
- 47:50Speaker 3: to be to ruled out. Meantime, my VHS copy of
- 47:53Speaker 3: the movie Red Dawn still rewinds perfectly, said the texture. Indeed,
- 47:59Speaker 3: I am sure it it does. Tex says Jamie McCuskey
- 48:04Speaker 3: has helped so much propaganda, but I don't think he
- 48:06Speaker 3: knows where he begins and it ends.
- 48:09Speaker 4: That's a text.
- 48:14Speaker 3: Text, says Dave. I will not let the Republicans forget.
- 48:16Speaker 3: When Rockefeller opened a West Virginia office in Japan and
- 48:19Speaker 3: brought Toyota to our state, Republicans criticized him and said
- 48:22Speaker 3: Japan was going to take all that money back home.
- 48:25Speaker 3: And they didn't pick and they didn't take people's paychecks.
- 48:29Speaker 3: They stayed here. Green hybrid, green jobs are coming here,
- 48:32Speaker 3: says I remember, years and years and years ago. My
- 48:35Speaker 3: wife and I were just talking about this.
- 48:36Speaker 4: The other day.
- 48:37Speaker 3: We were at a at a function with some neighbors
- 48:40Speaker 3: and there was an elderly gentleman there and we were
- 48:42Speaker 3: talking about the vehicles I'm talking about. This was like
- 48:44Speaker 3: the early nineties and something was said about Toyota. This
- 48:47Speaker 3: gentleman was a decorator World War Two veterans, so I
- 48:49Speaker 3: have all of the respect in the world for him.
- 48:51Speaker 3: But he said at that point something and a lot
- 48:54Speaker 3: of older people had that mindset, and he said, I
- 48:58Speaker 3: can tell you I'll never drive in and it may
- 49:00Speaker 3: not even a bit about Toyota. Maybe it was another
- 49:03Speaker 3: uh Japanese manufacturer, but he made the comment, I'll tell
- 49:06Speaker 3: you I'll never own a Toyota because of Pearl Harbor.
- 49:09Speaker 3: And again that's that was a very common thought process
- 49:13Speaker 3: back then. But I will tell you that more of
- 49:18Speaker 3: Toyota is seen to be made in America, at least
- 49:20Speaker 3: a great great part of them. Well then what some
- 49:22Speaker 3: American vehicles are So just throwing that out there. Oh
- 49:28Speaker 3: so we may see later today whether the Epstein files
- 49:31Speaker 3: will be released or not. President Trump announcing Sunday night
- 49:34Speaker 3: that he's all for releasing the files. So we shall see.
- 49:37Speaker 3: Said it before. In today's society, I feel that most
- 49:43Speaker 3: people don't necessarily want to see justice done. They just
- 49:48Speaker 3: want to play gotcha with the other side, and the
- 49:51Speaker 3: left is all about we got to release these files.
- 49:54Speaker 3: We gotta nail Trump on this, and the rights are
- 49:56Speaker 3: we gotta, we gotta go after you know whomever that
- 49:58Speaker 3: they think maybe on that. And I think, as I
- 50:00Speaker 3: said before, I basis on nothing but some reading that
- 50:02Speaker 3: I've done. I think if, if, and when it all
- 50:06Speaker 3: does come out, I think there's going to be an
- 50:07Speaker 3: equal number of left and right on the on the
- 50:09Speaker 3: Epstein files. Whether President Trump is on it, I don't
- 50:12Speaker 3: know whether you know any of these A lists, Hollywood celebrities,
- 50:15Speaker 3: Bill Clinton, we already know that. You know, the former
- 50:17Speaker 3: Prince the artist formerly known as Prince Uh. You know,
- 50:20Speaker 3: I was going to make that joke. May may be
- 50:24Speaker 3: on it. I don't know, but that that's just where
- 50:26Speaker 3: we are now as a society. We're not necessarily interested
- 50:29Speaker 3: in in the white right or wrong. We just want
- 50:31Speaker 3: to be able to try to play gotcha with the others.
- 50:33Speaker 3: I mean, we see it when there's a school shooting,
- 50:35Speaker 3: we see it when there's some kind of a mass shooting.
- 50:37Speaker 3: First thing we want to do is we want to
- 50:38Speaker 3: find out what was his or her political ideology, And
- 50:42Speaker 3: usually it's a mixture of everything. That's kind of what
- 50:45Speaker 3: it is evil is it's on ideology. Last I checked,
- 50:47Speaker 3: y let's not checked. Yeah, Larry Summers got nailed. You see,
- 50:50Speaker 3: he was on last night. All the articles came out
- 50:53Speaker 3: about his step back, and so now he's got to
- 50:55Speaker 3: do you know, and and he should. That's TJ. Meadows
- 50:58Speaker 3: by the way. Oh hey, good morning, Thank for having me.
- 51:00Speaker 3: I just jump right in. I don't care.
- 51:02Speaker 12: Uh so, Yeah, there's gonna be a lot of people
- 51:06Speaker 12: release the finals. I mean, Trump could release. He doesn't
- 51:08Speaker 12: need a vote to do that, by the way, could
- 51:10Speaker 12: do that right now of his own accord. But let's
- 51:12Speaker 12: have the vote. Trump is losing his grip on the
- 51:16Speaker 12: Republican Party with this, he really is. I mean, this
- 51:19Speaker 12: is a guy that ruled with an iron fist. People
- 51:23Speaker 12: in the Republican Party were scared to push back this one.
- 51:27Speaker 12: No pun intended. Trump's everything, and he has lost that ability.
- 51:31Speaker 12: I mean, he thought he could walk MTG back, He
- 51:33Speaker 12: thought he could walk Lauren Bobert back.
- 51:35Speaker 11: Uh uh.
- 51:35Speaker 12: The floodgates are open on this thing. So yeah, get
- 51:38Speaker 12: it out there, I was.
- 51:39Speaker 3: Gonna say, and him getting out ahead of it on
- 51:40Speaker 3: Sunday night, I mean, I'll somebody texted one of the
- 51:44Speaker 3: shows and said that they thought Trump was a genius
- 51:47Speaker 3: for getting out ahead of this, really getting out ahead. Yeah,
- 51:51Speaker 3: so I'm just saying Tex says. Even Stephen A. Smith
- 51:54Speaker 3: said on his show that Biden's FBI and Department of
- 51:56Speaker 3: Justice had four freaking years and they never did the
- 51:59Speaker 3: thing about it. Democrats didn't say a word to that.
- 52:01Speaker 12: You would say, I don't have the time. Just get
- 52:06Speaker 12: the files out, Get the files out, all right?
- 52:08Speaker 3: What you got on talk line today.
