  Speaker 3: Did you I'm doing fine?
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: Did you get a chance to rest a little bit
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: because you came off the softball tournament and of course
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: I know you were heavily invested in that Mountaineer game
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: and now you got the state baseball tournament going on.
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: Did you did a little bit of rest this weekend?
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: Uh to find rest because I did not have games
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: broadcast on Friday, worked my regular day on Friday, hung
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: out with you on midday with the sports Blitz, spent
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: Friday evening preparing for the Class A quarterfinals in the
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: state baseball tournament, called those on Saturday, and then slept
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: until about eleven o'clock on Sunday.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: Okay, all right, so a little bit of rest, yeah, somewhere,
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: a little bit of rest in this day too, of
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: the say baseball term of Jack Cookfield and Honeingson. Will
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: get into that just a bit a little bit later on.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: And I know you're, as you said, you're heading there
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: to console with the Ash, but I want to start
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: by talking about this Mountaineer baseball team, Daniel, heading to
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: their first ever college World Series. We'll get into the
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: storm a little bit later on, but let's talk about
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: that win cal Poly un side.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Oh, well, they just hit another home run, right.
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: I was on the air with Dave Wilson as that
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: game was happening, and just about every inning and a
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: half I would check the score and I would just
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: say to Dave on the air, Dave, more things are
• 3:56
  Speaker 6: happening in Morgantown and West Virginia dominated that series against
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: cal Poly, and I think the thing that a lot
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: of people were saying coming into that series was West
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: Virginia could have trouble with cal Poly because cal Poly
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: has great starting pitching. The two starting pitchers for cal
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: Poly did not combine to throw four innings in the
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: two games because West Virginia jumped on him early and
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: took care of business against both of those guys. So
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: it's an exciting time. You know, the entire state of
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: West Virginia, it seems, has embraced this team and it's
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: really exciting stuff. I told you on midday on Friday.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: I'm not going to tell you it feels like twenty
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: ten when the Mountaineer basketball team went to the Final four,
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: but it really feels like twenty ten when the Mountaineer
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: basketball team went to the Final four. And baseball team's
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: one of the last eight left standing.
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: And of course, I mean, not to take away oh,
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: they just hit another home run, not to take away
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: from the game in any way, shape, form or fashion,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: to quote US Senator Jim Justice, because the Mountaineers are
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: now heading out to Omaha first time in program history.
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: But that storm was something else and it made national attention,
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: it was on the national news, it's on ESPN.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, a terrible story with with what happened, kind of
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: marred things, but it seems like long term, everybody's gonna
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: be okay. It could have it could have been a lot,
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: It could have been a lot worse. So he had
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: a thunderstorm that that delayed the game. And something that
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: has become national headline in sports with this run for
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: WVU is the fans packing what has come to be
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: known Randy's Ridge down the right field line with the
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: hill overlooking the stadium in the parking lot of the
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: WVU medicine facility up there, and I mean it was
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: shoulder to shoulder all the way down the right field
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: line up there. There were people with with tents and
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: canopies and all kinds of things. And one of the
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: larger tents as this delay was going on for the
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: storm came loose blew down the hill and there were
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: seven people that were injured, five that were transported to
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: the hospital. Like I said, seems like everybody's gonna be okay.
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: But he has some really scary moments And a huge
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: shout out to Joanah Nelson in Morgantown, who's one of
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: our reporters that was out there, was able to get
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: some witness accounts of what happened, and you can head
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: to DOUBLEV metro news dot com to read a little
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: bit more because it is a really harrowing story.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: It is, and I mean in the video was just
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: I was actually not in Morgantown. I was actually watching
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: the game, like a lot of our listeners were on
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: ESPN two. And I just wonder, though, Daniel, that for
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: the future, what that's going to mean for Randy Ridge is,
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: especially with tints.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I agree, you know, I agree.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: And when there's bad weather predicted, they kept and I
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: know everybody's got their the weather on their phone. Everybody
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: probably gets alerts and whatever. But on from the television broadcast,
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: they were showing well before it happened. I mean, this
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: is a massive storm that's coming in at at some point.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: Maybe it might have been a good idea Hindsight's twenty twenty.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: It might have been a good idea to let's fold
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: up these tents with this six company.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: And I don't want to speak for the folks that
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: were there, but if this was a regular old, big
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: twelve regular season game on a Sunday in April. There's
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: probably a good chance of seventeen to one ballgame. In
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: the eighth inning the rains come, everybody's gonna go home.
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: But this was the game to clinch the super regional.
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: People wanted to be there. I wanted to send Country
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: Roads after. So I agree with you. I think you
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: probably need to be a little bit more aware of
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: the situation. As I have said about a lot of sports,
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: and this is not exactly the right turn of phrase,
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: but I want to use it. Know your personnel is
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: a big deal in sports, and know your situation here.
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: I think maybe you should have got the tents down
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: a little hard.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: But again, it's the important thing is is that no
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: one was seriously injured. It sounds like everybody's gonna be right. Yeah,
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: And that's just I don't know about going forward. They
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: may take a look at the tent situation, and Brandy,
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: I would think it's one of the better things that's
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: happened in college sports in along Lonstether, you're a Mountaineer
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: fan or not, so I just I would hate to
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: see that that go away because of this incident. But
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: maybe you know when weather is predicted, bad weather's predict
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: Did you have somebody there going out? These guys no tense, right,
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: you know, enjoy it, but no tense right. And I
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: will tell you I saw video. The game was at noon.
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: They opened up that area at ten AM, and I
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: saw a video and it was like, you know the
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: old videos of the Alabama spring game, the people sprinting
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: out of the tunnels to get autographed after the Alabama
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: Spring Game. It was like that. I mean, people on
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: a dead sprint to get their spots as soon as
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: they open that up. So I don't think it's going
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: to go away as a concept, but I do think
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: they're going to have to restrict some things.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: All right, let's get to the same baseball tournament, Day
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: two getting underway already over the weekend. I guess a
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: major upset, right.
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: Yes, the defending Class A state champions East Hardy beaten
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: by their regional rivals from Pendleton County, So we will
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: have a new Class A baseball champion this year. East
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: Hardy had swept Pendleton County in the regular season and
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: Pendleton County just comes down lines up, beats them eight
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: to four in the quarterfinals. Number seven seed came in
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: with a sixteen and sixteen record, but they looked like
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: a number one seed out there. Took care of business
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: and like I said, we'll have a new Class A champion.
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: Our semi semi finals in that bracket are gonna come
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: up on Thursday.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: And what time does the game start?
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: They already started to They start at I think my
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: alma mater plays at noon today.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: I think the loganwket yes they do. They will play
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Dodgers County Okay area teams in the Charleston area.
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: Right, so Buffalo will be the first to take the field.
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: They'll be in the last game tonight, which is probably
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: going to be about an eight o'clock first pitch. That's
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: typically how that fourth game shakes out, depending on how
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: quickly Game three goes. But Buffalo will play Independence. They
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: beat Charleston Catholic to get there. In Class Triple A,
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: Saint Albans is the number two seed. I'm really excited
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: for that Class Triple A tournament, doing my preparations for that.
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: As the week goes on, St Albans is twenty nine
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: to five. They're behind Bridgeboard, who's thirty and four. Interesting
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: stat that I just love to dig up this morning.
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: The top two teams in that Class Triple A field,
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: that's Bridgeport and Saint Albans. Neither of them have allowed
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: one hundred runs on the season, both in thirty plus games,
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: so you've got two great pitching teams, plus the rest
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: of that field is great. And then two of the
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: top three seeds in Class Quada, which we'll start on Wednesday,
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: are here in the Kanawa Valley. George Washington is the
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: number one overall seed, Hurricane is the number three seed.
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: So that's going to be an exciting tournament. The depth
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: in Quada this year is really strong. I'm looking forward
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: to Wednesday.
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: And again we want to remind you that all four
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: championship games will be a Metro News television, so if
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: you have a downloaded the app, make sure you do.

  Speaker 5: All the audio the games is available WV metronews dot

• 10:35
  Speaker 5: providing coverage on Charleston's ESPN Radio one of six point
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: seven FM fourteen ninety a M and oh, WV just
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: hit another home run, So Daniel, I appreciate you being here.
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: I hope the weather cooperates.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: I really do too, you.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: Know, because it's kind of a fingers crossed situation with
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: these pop up showers, thunderstorms.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Second weeks of state tournaments, six days of state softball.
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: We had one really bad weather day and it made
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: the rest of that week a hassle.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: So we'll see how it goes.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: We had a texture so that I saw the brackets.
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: City West Virginia will play Troy on Friday. Do we
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: know what time and channel that will be on?
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: Not sure on start time yet. They need to solidify
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: the field, but it will be Friday, either afternoon or evening.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: All right, And oh, that'll come out a little bit wrong,
• 11:21

• 14:27
  Speaker 3: not a simple operation just to pull it down. It's
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: not done quickly. Even just lowering it would have taken
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: a number of folks. You're absolutely right, absolutely right about that,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Tex says Dave. Why didn't Metro News TV cover the

• 15:00
  Speaker 5: they'll get a chairman. Pushkins with us now from an
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: undisclosed location.
• 15:03
  Speaker 12: Good morning, sir, Good morning, sir. I can't be there
• 15:07
  Speaker 12: in the in the studio with you to do actually
• 15:10
  Speaker 12: immediately doing work of the party at the Association of
• 15:15
  Speaker 12: State Democratic Parties Association State Democratic Committees where we are
• 15:21
  Speaker 12: meeting currently, and I'm not in Charleston or i'd be
• 15:23
  Speaker 12: there with you, but I do. I promise though, if
• 15:26
  Speaker 12: things I'll always like talking to you. But if things
• 15:29
  Speaker 12: get a little heated this morning, I promise not to
• 15:32
  Speaker 12: storm off the set like the President did yesterday on
• 15:35
  Speaker 12: Meet the Press.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: If you want to call me darling on your way out,
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: that's okay. I'll allow that.
• 15:40
  Speaker 12: Well, you know, as all as call you by your
• 15:43
  Speaker 12: name right to tell you darling.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: Darling something like that, something?
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: All right, So, what did you I'm going to talk
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: about the the state meeting, but what did you make
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: of that? And Danny and I are going to talk
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: about it at length a little bit later on that exchange.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you even get to see.
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: It though, where you're traveling with Kristen Welker and President
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: Trump one meet the prece yesterday.
• 16:02
  Speaker 12: I mean, for the you know, the leader of the
• 16:03
  Speaker 12: free world or president of the United States to act like that,
• 16:07
  Speaker 12: really act very childish, and if he doesn't like the questions,
• 16:11
  Speaker 12: he gets hostile, and if there seems to be a
• 16:14
  Speaker 12: pattern where it's often aimed at female reporters, so it's
• 16:18
  Speaker 12: not the first time he's done done something like this.
• 16:21
  Speaker 12: You know, sadly nobody's been shocked or surprised by it,
• 16:24
  Speaker 12: but we all should be. But I mean, that's not
• 16:26
  Speaker 12: the way that the president should be acting.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: And I agree.
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: And my take on that is is, look, if you
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: know those questions are coming, maybe you don't agree to
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: do the interview if you're President Trump. I mean, I mean,
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: I'm just saying again, Danny and I'll talk about that
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: a little bit later. I want to talk about maybe
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: battle is not the right word for the chairmanship, but
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: there was some discussions, someone else wanted the role, and
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: in the end, I guess folks voted to keep you
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: in that position. How did the vote go? I mean,
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: how does it happen? Take us through the process.
• 16:53
  Speaker 12: Well, every four years, within thirty days of the primary,
• 16:57
  Speaker 12: and the vast majority of the Executive Committee members are
• 17:02
  Speaker 12: elected by directly by primary voters, those who represent each
• 17:07
  Speaker 12: state senatorial district, we have our you know, organizational meeting
• 17:12
  Speaker 12: and so it's it's you know, that happens every four years.
• 17:16
  Speaker 12: So there was definitely not a battle. It was an
• 17:19
  Speaker 12: election and that's what we do as stated in our
• 17:22
  Speaker 12: in our state code. And uh, you know, we're the
• 17:25
  Speaker 12: Democratic party, so everybody had an equal opportunity to speak up.
• 17:30
  Speaker 12: And so these things can take some time because it's
• 17:32
  Speaker 12: not just a chairs race. We also vote on vice chair,
• 17:36
  Speaker 12: second vice chair, and all the way down there's a
• 17:38
  Speaker 12: whole list of officers. There's a large committee members that
• 17:41
  Speaker 12: are elected there. Vacancies are filled at this meeting. So
• 17:45
  Speaker 12: if people didn't step up and run for a couple
• 17:48
  Speaker 12: of our state senate districts, then we fill vacancies there.
• 17:53
  Speaker 12: There are other appointments that are made so it's uh,
• 17:55
  Speaker 12: you know, it's a it takes a long time. It
• 17:57
  Speaker 12: was a long day Saturday.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: How long did it take through it?
• 18:01
  Speaker 12: And now we're you know, you know back, you know,
• 18:04
  Speaker 12: the party is together and we're ready to take the
• 18:07
  Speaker 12: fight to the Republicans a fall.
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: We on midday last week, we talked to you about
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: the Saturday meeting. We also talked to Teresa Tourseeva, who
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: wanted to be in that role and was was not chosen.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: Everything good there. I mean, like you said, I don't
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: think you made a good point last week, Mike. I
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: mean I think that no matter whether it's Republican or Democrat,
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: I think that you that you need these kind of things,
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: you know, and kind of I don't want to say
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: shake it up, but maybe to have a little discussion
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: and h but every everything good now within the.
• 18:33
  Speaker 12: Party, Yeah, everything is great. We are said, we're ready
• 18:37
  Speaker 12: to work together and we have a great team. And
• 18:39
  Speaker 12: first I wanted to yeah, I would commend Vice Chair
• 18:43
  Speaker 12: tour Seva on a well fought race. It was you know,
• 18:46
  Speaker 12: it was very uh, it was very competitive, and it
• 18:49
  Speaker 12: brought up we brought up a lot of good points
• 18:51
  Speaker 12: on both sides, and I think it makes for whoever
• 18:54
  Speaker 12: is in this in this position, it makes uh, it
• 18:56
  Speaker 12: makes it easier for us to do our job when
• 18:58
  Speaker 12: we hear uh, you know, not just not just the
• 19:01
  Speaker 12: compliments and the praise, but also the criticisms. I think
• 19:04
  Speaker 12: that's important. But I would also like to give a
• 19:07
  Speaker 12: shout out to the new vice chair of the West
• 19:10
  Speaker 12: Virginia Democratic Party, and it is Pamela Tucker kleinb from
• 19:14
  Speaker 12: Nicholas County. She's currently the chair of the Nicholas County Democrats.
• 19:18
  Speaker 12: She is one of the hardest working people that we
• 19:21
  Speaker 12: have in West Virginia. So really happy to start working
• 19:26
  Speaker 12: with Pam. And also we elected our second vice chair
• 19:31
  Speaker 12: who is the mayor of Wellsburg, Mayor Danny Dudley, who
• 19:35
  Speaker 12: is a great Democratic, great mayor, great guy, and really
• 19:38
  Speaker 12: looking forward to working with him as well. So congratulations
• 19:41
  Speaker 12: to Pam and Mayor Dudley.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: So now it it settled, Mike, where do you go
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: from here as the Democratic Party in West Virginia.
• 19:50
  Speaker 12: Well, I believe on your show last week I said
• 19:53
  Speaker 12: one thing I won't be doing is take it a
• 19:54
  Speaker 12: day off, and I'm sure the next on Sunday yesterday morning,
• 19:59
  Speaker 12: I get on the plane and come here to the
• 20:01
  Speaker 12: Association of State Democratic Committees to continue working for the party.
• 20:05
  Speaker 12: As soon as I get back, it's going to be
• 20:09
  Speaker 12: straight back to work and working with our candidates, because
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: that's what's important right now. We have a mid term
• 20:14
  Speaker 12: coming up in November. The people of West Virginia need
• 20:18
  Speaker 12: us right now because they need a state government, and
• 20:21
  Speaker 12: I had a federal government that works for them, and
• 20:25
  Speaker 12: so we'll be working with our candidates. I believe we
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: have a candidate training we're doing in conjunction with the
• 20:30
  Speaker 12: House Democratic Caucus just next weekend and making sure our
• 20:35
  Speaker 12: candidates have all the resources and all the training that
• 20:37
  Speaker 12: they need to run their best elections this fall. And
• 20:40
  Speaker 12: we plan on having a pretty good night in November.
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: This year talking again with State Democratic Party Chair and
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: Delegate Mike Puskin. Be sure and join me every Friday morning,
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: nine to six for the Adopt Me. Please put it
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: the week from the Canal Charleston Humaine Association brought you.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: I almost have an INTERIORUS family owned proudly serve the
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: community for over fifty years, specializing custom blind shade, shutters, upholstery,
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: and beautifully crafted sown goods from homes, to hospitals, classrooms,
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: commercial spaces they do at all. They're located at five
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: sixteen D Street in South Charleston. Right now, as you said,
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: you have a lot more in my I think I'm
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: correct about this. You have a lot more candidates on
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: the ballot than perhaps what you've had in the in
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: the past. What's that message that you are going to
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: as a party chair and other leaders that you are
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: going to when you sit down with these candidate trainings,
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: because they'll be so many these people, Mike, you know,
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: probably never run for office before, They've never taken part
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: in candidate forums, They've never had to do a lot
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: of you know, radio, television, online, billboard advertising, whatever. What
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: goes into when you sit down with these candidates over
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: the next couple of months.
• 21:43
  Speaker 12: Well, I mean, we tend to stick to the kitchen
• 21:46
  Speaker 12: table issues. That's what everybody, whether they're you know, the voters,
• 21:49
  Speaker 12: whether they're Republican or Democrats, are independent or whatever, what
• 21:52
  Speaker 12: everybody is concerned about right now. Basic kitchen table issues.
• 21:57
  Speaker 12: How much a cost to you know, keep the air
• 21:59
  Speaker 12: conditioning on at their house, how much it costs to
• 22:01
  Speaker 12: fill up a tank of gas, Whether or not we
• 22:04
  Speaker 12: have enough funding for our public schools, whether or not
• 22:08
  Speaker 12: people have access to healthcare, things that affect the day
• 22:10
  Speaker 12: to day lives of West Virginians. That's what we are
• 22:13
  Speaker 12: laser focused on because we just field at the Republican
• 22:16
  Speaker 12: supermajority in West Virginia and in Congress and all the
• 22:20
  Speaker 12: way up to the White House. They have not been
• 22:22
  Speaker 12: doing their job to address the needs of the people
• 22:25
  Speaker 12: of West Virginia or the people of this country. So
• 22:27
  Speaker 12: that's what we're focused on. And we feel we have
• 22:30
  Speaker 12: a printing are in good argument because you know, the
• 22:33
  Speaker 12: evidence is all around us.

  Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, and that's the ribbons. Yeah, so so I
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: always wear it when I fly on a plane.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: And sometimes you forget your phone. That's another story, poor Danny.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: I left my phone on the plane last night.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That's well. Luckily you have like seven of them,
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: so there's that.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: Well, hopefully I've been in touch through AI through everything today,
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: so maybe they'll find they It says it's at the airport,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: but you know.
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: In the airport in California, in the Hartsfield at in Atlanta.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, at Mander Jackson Airport down.

  Speaker 3: There, all right.
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: Uh so, welcome back from California. Thank you you you

  Speaker 3: It's uh, it's pretty cool. Had you got there?
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: It's very cozy. And I found myself sitting on the
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: chase you on the porch.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: Was watching life go by, well okay, going to sleep.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: At honestly, and then I wake up and the sun
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: has come over on my legs and my legs are
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: burning up.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: Let me ask you.
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: We talked to Mike Pushkin earlier in the show, Danny,
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: and he will remain in the state Democratic Party chair
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: and they had their meeting in Charleston over the weekend,
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: and there was a challenge to him to somebody else
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: wanted to take over the chairmanship. He retained, He had
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: the votes, and he retained it. What if you were
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: to give advice on West Virginia Democrats, because again, you
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: were a Republican when the Republicans were in the minority,
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: In the way minority.
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: Okay, But twenty twenty six, if you were to give
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: advice to West Virginia Democrats that are maybe running for
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: office or what would what would that advice be?
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Well, first thing, I don't know. Why was Mike michael challenge.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: There's somebody being I think that's good. I mean, Mike
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: even said it, because sometimes people think they can do
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: it better.
• 30:10
  Speaker 12: I like.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, I've interviewed her. I like her, but I
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: don't Why would you want to anyway? I would? I
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: would do run the way I ran for sheriff. First thing,
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: you got to get some money. Second thing, stay alone.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: Okay, not run it. Don't run as a pack.
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: In other words, well, pack is not the right word
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: in today's political is No, I mean as a group
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: I should say.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: You know, I remember the Democrats. They may have a
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: little headquartered in my old restaurant, but they had down
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: the street four years ago. They were down the street
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: on the corner, and they used to go out and
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: have this honking wave. And yet all these people standing
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: out there was signed and you couldn't distinguish one for another.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: And the thing to do is stay alone, okay, and
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: get some real get some bruch. Sure, And of course
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: now they you have to use social media, and that's,
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, that's just not my thing. Somebody else is
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: going to have to help you with.
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: There's plenty of people that can do that. I would
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: say if nobody asked me as a registered independent, but
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: I would say that the first thing in West Virginia, Danny,
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: is somebody's running for And I've used this example. I
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: changed the county every time, so people think I'm not
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: picking on any Particularly if you're running for surveyor of
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: Calhoun County, right and you go to somebody's door or
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: candidate forum or whatever. The first thing they are going
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: to ask you, if you're a Democrat, they're going to say, well,
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: how do you feel about the National Democratic Party? They're
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: going to start throwing out names like AOC and they're
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: going to throw out names like you know, all the
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: you know, and they're still living on Biden and Pelosi
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: and all this other stuff. My if I had a
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: piece of advice for them, I would say, look, I
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: am me, I am Dave Allen. I am running for
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: this office. I'm not involved the national politics.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: I handled that in the general when I was running
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: for sheriff. I was thirty three years old that summer,
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: and I had every Democrat intend any Republican houses. Governor
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Rohrer told me, if you don't have the Republicans, forget
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: about it. So I want to. I got their names.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: I went to their homes and I said, if you
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: haven't found a candidate to teck the vote for sheriff,
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: I'd like for you to consider voting for me. And
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: I'm running against the coach Edwards down there, and he's
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: a good man, but I'm a good man too, like that,
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: and they would smile. And I had one lady ask me,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: she's a Democrat, said well, what about President Reagan. I said,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: I'm not running for president. I'm running for sheriff.
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: I mean, it is my belief and I based this
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: on nothing more than antidotal evidence.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: I believe that.
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: The only way that a well one of the only
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: ways that a Democrat is going to get elected. And
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: maybe I don't use my example as a surveyor of
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: Calhoun County, let's use a bigger is that you're going
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: to have to make a statement against the National Democratic Party. Now,
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: no real or imagine, real or imagine I'm not saying,
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: but I'm just saying, you're pretty much gonna have to
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: do that, because that's what in West Virginia. In West Virginia,
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: that's still a big thing. And even though his popularity
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: is plumbering elsewhere else everywhere else, Donald Trump is still
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: incredibly popular in West Virginia.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: Two people who I can verify did not but Republican
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: on their brochure. One was named More and the other
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: was named Jones. Okay, I never put a Republican on there. Okay,
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: I just I'm running for sheriff. I'm better looking in
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: that guy.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Of course, of course you said that.
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: But you know what's interesting to me is sometimes when
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: I do these candidate interviews with somebody, you know, prior
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: to an election, and maybe if it's somebody that is
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: not as well known, and maybe in the first two
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: or three questions, if I haven't yet brought it up. Okay,
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: this is Danny Jones. He's a Republican running and maybe
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: if I haven't gotten to it yet, or maybe it
• 34:24
  Speaker 5: doesn't matter, maybe it's a Ward of Education seat or
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: a judge seat, whatever, somebody Invariably Danny will text the
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: show and we'll say is this guy, is this gal?
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: Is this Is this a Republican or a Democrat?
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but even if it's a nonpartisan rates they want
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: they want to know are you a Republican or are
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: you Democrat?
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: But David, that's the show. That's I mean not when
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: you go out and hit the doors. Now everybody listens
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: to this show.
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: What not?
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Everybody is engaged in politics.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: That's true. That's a very good point.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: You have a very nice, glossy picture of you on
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: the front cover, and then inside. If you have a family,
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: which I didn't, you can put them in and you
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: put bullet points about yourself. Don't mention you're a Democrat.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: What for what difference does it make you're running for
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: the House of Delegate or say Senate. If you haven't
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: found a candidate to vote for. I'd like for you
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: to consider voting for me.
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: And please, this is just as me as a voter.
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: Please stop promising things you can't do anything about. I mean,
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: the things I love about all politicians are I'll make
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: our streets safer. Okay again, you're running for surveyor of
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: Calhoun County. How safe are you going to make the streets?
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: You know? And I'm for.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: Lower taxes, and if everybody's for lower taxes, everybody is.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: I'm for more efficient government and like, if you know,
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: you've got to follow your passions with me. Teachers ought
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: to be paid more.
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: Let's meet what zero disagreement here?
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: I've gotten I've gotten soft in my old age about unions,
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: teachers in the UMW, I'm all in what's left of it.
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: The UMW really well, yeah, what changed?
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know. And the communication workers, I just think
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: they're real people and that doesn't mean they ought to
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: be able to take over. There are some people that've
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: overstepped their bounds. The leader of the Ford strike, remember him,
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: he's way over his skis. He's having them pay stuff
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: they can afford, and they have to compete internationally. But
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: with the umw and the teachers. You get that fifty
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: five strong. I might have a sign to my end.
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: Talking to Danny Jones sixty away from TENVI Dave Island
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: Show on five any Line brought to part by the
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: All New Generations for the hurricane Visit Generations Ford dot com. Danny,
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: I texted you yesterday after I watched the debacle. Uh
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: that was a Trump interview with Kristen Welker and Meet
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: the Prince yesterday.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: Your take?
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Why are they doing that? I mean, why would first thing?
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: Trump keeps advancing that lie. And I guess he thinks
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: if he says it long enough, people little people will
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: the election. He didn't get beat, he got trumped. He
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: lost seven million votes in that election. He lost every
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: sling state.
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: But if he were with you right now, here's the
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: way you be Danny, and I'll be Trump what President Trump?
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: What would be and said right now is no, it's
• 37:47
  Speaker 5: not true.
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: It's not true. No, that's not that's not what happened.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: That's not what happened.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, Well see, but I wouldn't if I was If
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: I was you, I wouldn't interview Donald Trump unless it's
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: about local stuff. We appreciate what you're doing, you know,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: getting cold back in business something like that. But but
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: you know, yeah, I mean he there is one shining
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: star in that administration and his name is Marco Rubia,
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: and he is really impressive.
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: Right And if he if he, if he was, if
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: he was so impressive, why why did he not do
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: better when he ran for president? I mean he was
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: in the top echelon, But I mean why did his
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: what did he not do?
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Nobody was going to beat Trump? Yeah, just like nobody
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: was going to beat Trump this past year. You know,
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, he just you know, they had
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Doug Bergen at George Stephanopolis had Doug Bergen on, you know,
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: talk about his campaign. Every question was about Trump. He
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: never said, well tell us what you'd do if you
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: were president. Never no questions like that. It was all
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: about Trump, every single question. It was really insulting.
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: Going back to that interview yesterday. And I didn't be
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: honest with you. I did not intentionally. If I'm home
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: on Sundays, generally speaking, I'll check out the news shows.
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: But I didn't know the president was going to be on.
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: It just happened to be on me. And I saw
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: the set down interview, and I don't I think I
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: was reading or something while I had the TV going,
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: and all of a sudden, I was like, what am
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: I wanting?
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: This is like a Jerry Springer episode. I mean it was.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: And she said she wants She said, they talked and
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: they're going to interview again. Why why?
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Why?
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: And of course there were the technical issues because they
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: were in a barn in Wisconsin with a metal roof,
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: and they kept having audio issues and so on and
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: so forth. But I mean some of the quotes that
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: the that the President put out there, this was a
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: direct quote, You're either crooked or you're stupid. Your elections
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: are crooked. Meet the press is crooked, and so is
• 40:03
  Speaker 5: ABC and CBS and C and ED. All right, let's
• 40:06
  Speaker 5: call it quits because I've had enough. Thank you, darling,
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: have a good time.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Thank you darling. Yeah, thank you darling.
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: That's the way. That's the way the interview ended.
• 40:18
  Speaker 5: And she was trying to, you know, to say, look,
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: I came here, came all the way to Wisconsin for
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: this interview, and I mean basically he came across and
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: I know I'm going to get accused of Trump derangement
• 40:29
  Speaker 5: syndrome or whatever. I am going to say this, he
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: came across in that interview as completely unhinged.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: Is he is unhinged? I mean, he let me tell
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: you what's gonna happen. Do you know that the balance
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: and the Senate in the United States Senate hangs on
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: the back of a liberal Republican Susan Colton. And that's
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: why all you maga folks out there, you'd better be
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: pulling for her, because if she doesn't win that that
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: her seatback in Maine. She's a really good person and
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: she isn't going to seatback. The Democrats will probably take
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: the House. That means Schumer is uh gonna be the leader,
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: and that means he will pick all the all the
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: chairman of all the committees to side all the agendas.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: So you better be you better be pulling for Susan.
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: Does Trump get involved and a lot of elections come
• 41:26
  Speaker 5: fall to raise his money, but I mean as far
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: as getting as involved if we as we seen him
• 41:32
  Speaker 5: in the past, because I mean his.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: He got he got involved in Spencer Pratts and the
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: money and his numbers plummeted, we.
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: I think sometimes I mean, and again you can make
• 41:43
  Speaker 5: numbers say whatever you want to make numbers say. But
• 41:45
  Speaker 5: the truth is, no matter what polling you look out
• 41:49
  Speaker 5: outside certain areas, including West Virginia, and President Trump is
• 41:52
  Speaker 5: very unpopular, very unpopular, and mainly it's because of the economy.
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: And it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong. People
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: blame that. I heard this analogy yesterday. Midterm elections are
• 42:03
  Speaker 5: report card of the guy in office. It doesn't matter
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: whether it's a Republican, Democrat, whatever, It's a report card
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: on where we are and nobody we're I mean, he
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: ran on, we're not going to get us involved in
• 42:15
  Speaker 5: any new wars.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: We're involved.
• 42:17
  Speaker 5: Okay, but now I will say, no one in the
• 42:20
  Speaker 5: right mind thinks that Arrange should have a nuclear capability.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: I get that, Okay.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: He's just the wrong seller. He's the wrong salesman. And
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: they said, wasn't are you going to open up the
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: Australier horror movies?
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: He can't.
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: How can he that they're going to charge tolls? They've
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: got the place of mind. No, he's doing the only
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: thing he can do. He's got it blocked. Now. Pretty
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: soon China is going to say we need oil. And
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: if President Trump really want to do some damage to
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: a run. He blew up their oil fields. But then
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: what are you going to do to China? They get
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: a percentage I've heard up to forty percent from Iran,
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: and you don't want to bring them into it. This
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: is not their fight. I mean, we got a lot
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: we don't like about China, but this isn't We don't
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: want to get them involved. But he's right about the
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: nuclear weapon. But David, there's one more thing that nobody
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: talks about. Rubio talked about it once is the Intercontinental
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: Ballistic Missile System and that you can do inside of
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: a building, and they're building them and they could target
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: New York City and that's what worries me. Now we
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: can see where the we could bomb that again that
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: they've got that, you know, that stuff three hundred feet underground,
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: we get hit it again. I mean, I'm more concerned
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: about the ICBMs.
• 44:00
  Speaker 5: Talking to Danny Jones's nine to fifty one to Dave

• 47:09
  Speaker 2: I ran on. I never carried a gun and never
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: wore a uniform. I was just pretty man.
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: Stuck on that.
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: Today Texas has really messed up. A lot of people

  Speaker 5: say I don't pay attention to politics. They seemed to
• 47:22
  Speaker 5: not understand that politics affects every single aspect of their life.

  Speaker 2: because I ran alone.
• 47:53
  Speaker 5: A text you and Danny demand the Democrats is in
• 47:55
  Speaker 5: themselves for the National Party, whatever that means. Yet you

  Speaker 5: don't hold Republicans accountable for Trump pathetic show consistency and
• 48:02
  Speaker 5: make sure every Republican you bring on the show answer
• 48:04
  Speaker 5: for Trump destroying the economy, starting wars and viol behavior.
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: They're not going to do that because Trump is incredibly popular.

• 48:56
  Speaker 3: What's Trump done lately? Nothing?
• 48:58

• 49:02

• 49:45
  Speaker 5: it an attacked by members of these media allies. He
• 49:48
  Speaker 5: still makes time to talk to them. Biden gave a
• 49:49
  Speaker 5: total of forty five interviews in four years. During his
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: first one hundred days of his second term, Trump gave
• 49:55

• 49:58
  Speaker 5: over one thousand reporters questions.
• 50:01

  Speaker 2: you had me and Mark Carmon. And Mark Carmon got
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: me used to saying labor labor at the labor labor bill.
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: That's a negotiation between labor and labor.
• 50:30

• 50:33
  Speaker 5: you ever thought, I know you said you were working
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: on another book or thinking about it, you ever thought
• 50:37
  Speaker 5: about writing one just about your political career and nothing else.
• 50:40
  Speaker 5: I mean, the other stuff is fascinating, Don't get me wrong.
• 50:43
