- 0:00Speaker 1: Check Douglass in the Power Hour on six to ten
- 0:01Speaker 1: wtv NA two one nine eight eighty six of my
- 0:05Speaker 1: number A two one wtv and Dave yost Up who
- 0:09Speaker 1: is the Ohio Attorney General, and and I guess will
- 0:12Speaker 1: remain so oh well, he's not running for governor anymore.
- 0:18Speaker 1: Still not crazy about that whole thing, but it is
- 0:21Speaker 1: what it is. He has issued a report on missing children.
- 0:27Speaker 1: It's the twenty twenty four Ohio Missing Children Clearinghouse Report,
- 0:31Speaker 1: which coincides with National Missing Children's Day, which is coming
- 0:35Speaker 1: up being observed on May twenty fifth. I didn't know
- 0:37Speaker 1: there was such a thing. I'm really not sure what
- 0:41Speaker 1: you're supposed to do with it, but that's the day
- 0:46Speaker 1: May twenty fifth. This report revealed this is Ohio. Now,
- 0:51Speaker 1: just the state of Ohio reported missing in Ohio last
- 0:56Speaker 1: year twenty one thousand, three hundred undred and forty two people,
- 1:02Speaker 1: which believe it or not, is a decrease of one
- 1:06Speaker 1: thousand and thirty two people in the previous year. Now,
- 1:10Speaker 1: out of these twenty one thousand, three hundred and forty
- 1:12Speaker 1: two people, sixteen thousand, four hundred four were missing children.
- 1:18Speaker 1: That is also one thousand and one fewer than there
- 1:22Speaker 1: were reported missing in twenty twenty three, so as bothersome.
- 1:27Speaker 1: As scary, as outrageous as those numbers are, they're actually
- 1:32Speaker 1: better by one thousand in twenty twenty four than they
- 1:36Speaker 1: were in twenty twenty three. Ninety six pointy five percent
- 1:40Speaker 1: of the reported missing children. This is where it gets good.
- 1:46Speaker 1: That means fifteen thousand, eight hundred and thirty four out
- 1:49Speaker 1: of the sixteen thousand, four hundred four were recovered safely
- 1:55Speaker 1: by the end of twenty twenty four. However, three children
- 1:59Speaker 1: were also found dead. Now, I don't know what the
- 2:06Speaker 1: circumstances are behind. I mean, we're tens of thousands, that's
- 2:10Speaker 1: a lot of kids. I don't know if it's domestic things,
- 2:16Speaker 1: you know, divorce situation, one spouse took them from the
- 2:20Speaker 1: other spouse, or whether they were you know, ran away
- 2:23Speaker 1: and hit under the neighbor's porch. I have no idea,
- 2:30Speaker 1: but as Blazer and I were just talking about tsat
- 2:32Speaker 1: last hour, in surveillance and facial recognition, we are under
- 2:37Speaker 1: the microscope so much that it amazes me that, for
- 2:44Speaker 1: whatever reason, that many people in the state of Ohio
- 2:49Speaker 1: could have been reported missing last year. This clearing House
- 2:54Speaker 1: reports a result of a collaboration between local law enforcement
- 2:57Speaker 1: agencies and National Crime Information Center, which is operated by
- 3:00Speaker 1: the Department of Justice. The NCIC maintains a database of
- 3:03Speaker 1: missing persons and criminal information based on data provided by
- 3:07Speaker 1: local law enforcement. When a child goes missing, a report
- 3:10Speaker 1: is created and entered into the NCICE database. Once found,
- 3:13Speaker 1: that case is updated and the report gets closed out.
- 3:17Speaker 1: So again, you know, there's still still too many children
- 3:21Speaker 1: that were not accounted for by the end of the year.
- 3:26Speaker 1: But that number is just just outrageous. And the point
- 3:28Speaker 1: of sharing this with you is, honestly because we don't
- 3:31Speaker 1: know what the circumstances were behind all of these these disappearances.
- 3:37Speaker 1: The point is watch your kids. Watch your kids. I
- 3:41Speaker 1: always told mine when when my kids were littalized, that
- 3:43Speaker 1: if I can't see you, you're too far away. Pretty simple.
- 3:49Speaker 1: If I can't see you, you're too far away. That's
- 3:53Speaker 1: your job as a dad, as a parent, got to
- 3:57Speaker 1: keep an eye on them. And kids will kids will
- 4:03Speaker 1: disappear at a heartbeat. If you turn your head, they're gone.
- 4:07Speaker 1: So keep an eye on your children. And I just
- 4:09Speaker 1: wanted to pass those numbers on maybe maybe honestly to
- 4:12Speaker 1: put a little fear into you. Don't let your kids
- 4:16Speaker 1: go running off at the store, at them all whatever
- 4:20Speaker 1: while you're over on one side of there on the no,
- 4:22Speaker 1: huh huh, keep an eye on your kids. And before
- 4:26Speaker 1: I get out of here tonight, I get this up.
- 4:28Speaker 1: I get a newsletter, an email newsletter from an organization
- 4:32Speaker 1: called International Living. Are you familiar with that? Are you,
- 4:34Speaker 1: Zach No, I'm not, okay, I don't know much about it.
- 4:38Speaker 1: They have what they call their postcards, which are articles
- 4:42Speaker 1: written by people that have actually made the transition and
- 4:46Speaker 1: are retired, some retired early to various locations around the globe,
- 4:54Speaker 1: and sometimes they there's one right now. And in order
- 4:58Speaker 1: to find out the name of this eye, I got
- 5:00Speaker 1: to subscribe to the magazine, the physical magazine, And I
- 5:04Speaker 1: just might do it because it's such a well written article.
- 5:08Speaker 1: But the dollar is still strong everywhere but here and
- 5:15Speaker 1: this place. In today's International Postcards, guys Living, he say,
- 5:21Speaker 1: you know, for twenty five hundred bucks a month, a
- 5:24Speaker 1: couple can live a life of luxury. I got a
- 5:27Speaker 1: nice twentieth floor luxury condo, two bedroom, two bath luxury condo.
- 5:32Speaker 1: I say, everything there has two bedrooms, and two bath
- 5:34Speaker 1: because it's assumed to be a retirement situation for most people.
- 5:37Speaker 1: But there's a maid's quarters because many people opt to
- 5:42Speaker 1: have and a maid full time, which is six and
- 5:46Speaker 1: a half days. I think that the Monday through Saturday morning.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Then they get half a day off on Saturday and Sunday.
- 5:53Speaker 1: That's the custom on this island, the where they are,
- 5:57Speaker 1: and run you about five hundred a month. Wow, they
- 6:04Speaker 1: lay out here's what I'm paying for my rent. Here's
- 6:06Speaker 1: a eight hundred and fifty five dollars for twentieth floor
- 6:09Speaker 1: overlooking the ocean, two bedroom, two bath luxury condo with
- 6:12Speaker 1: a doorman by the way. And I keep looking at
- 6:17Speaker 1: this stuff and reading this stuff, and I'm thinking, as
- 6:19Speaker 1: much as I absolutely totally positively be on the shadow
- 6:22Speaker 1: of any doubt, will always be an American and love
- 6:24Speaker 1: of the United States of America. Man, this stuff is tempting,
- 6:30Speaker 1: it really is. That's what I want to ask you.
- 6:33Speaker 1: You're not really old enough to think about retirement yet,
- 6:35Speaker 1: are you? No? Not really not at all. Do you
- 6:38Speaker 1: think if you can envision yourself in thirty years from now,
- 6:42Speaker 1: when that time, could you see yourself living someplace other
- 6:46Speaker 1: than here? Yeah, if I can move back to Canada,
- 6:48Speaker 1: I would. That's not inspiring. Canada is cold, the North.
- 6:52Speaker 2: The island Newfoundland. I would move back if I can't
- 6:56Speaker 2: now obviously.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Well, they have posters out on you.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Probably we got to let that run out. Statue of
- 7:02Speaker 2: limitations on some things. No, I would move back there
- 7:04Speaker 2: just because I fell in love with the place. But
- 7:07Speaker 2: that's other than that.
- 7:10Speaker 1: No, I don't. I haven't been enough places to know.
- 7:13Speaker 1: Some of these tropical islands are just so irresistible that
- 7:16Speaker 1: I don't.
- 7:17Speaker 2: Like the sand.
- 7:18Speaker 1: You don't, seriously, No, something is so wrong with you.
- 7:22Speaker 1: I don't.
- 7:23Speaker 2: I mean, I will go swimming in the ocean for
- 7:24Speaker 2: a minute.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Now without going through sand. You've got to go through
- 7:27Speaker 1: sand to get to an ocean, see.
- 7:29Speaker 2: And then you have to take a shot. It's a
- 7:30Speaker 2: whole process, and gosh, I can't.
- 7:33Speaker 1: I just don't. It's not mean. Panama was very appealing
- 7:36Speaker 1: to me. Costa Rica, not largely because of the crime
- 7:39Speaker 1: and drug cartail stuff, but Panama was very appealing to me,
- 7:43Speaker 1: and again not expensive by the standards of what I
- 7:47Speaker 1: would be paying here for far less. I just I'm
- 7:52Speaker 1: I'm really really thinking about it, and nobody. Quite frankly,
- 7:56Speaker 1: anytime I talk about it, nobody's stepping Oh no, you
- 7:59Speaker 1: don't want to do that. Here. There's why I'm not
- 8:01Speaker 1: getting any warnings from friends, family, or you know, Facebook,
- 8:04Speaker 1: people who warn you about everything. I'm not getting any
- 8:07Speaker 1: warnings saying don't do it. So I'm really thinking all
- 8:12Speaker 1: I basically need is a good cell phone access and
- 8:17Speaker 1: internet access, and everything else is negotiable from that point.
- 8:22Speaker 1: But when I was looking at Panama, one of the
- 8:23Speaker 1: things they got what they call your ex patriots, the
- 8:26Speaker 1: people who are still citizens, but they have like living
- 8:30Speaker 1: visas for these other places. Sure, so the American ets
- 8:33Speaker 1: patriot populai Setema in Panama is apparently pretty strong. And
- 8:38Speaker 1: you can live in the village and you know, play
- 8:41Speaker 1: on the beach and look out over the sand. But
- 8:43Speaker 1: if you you know, if you want to go up
- 8:45Speaker 1: the road twelve minutes, you can get to Waye Walmart. However,
- 8:51Speaker 1: it's the custom really is to buy from the local shops, vendors,
- 8:55Speaker 1: farmers and so forth, and get all that fresh stuff.
- 8:58Speaker 1: I could I'm really serious, he could see myself living
- 9:03Speaker 1: somewhere else.
- 9:05Speaker 2: I hear this is just a tip I here Tijuana
- 9:08Speaker 2: is pretty cho no no, no, trying to help you.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Man, You will never see my Tijuana brass down there.
- 9:17Speaker 1: I I'm just curious. Like I said, nobody is stepping
- 9:20Speaker 1: up and tell me don't do it. So I'm actually
- 9:23Speaker 1: feeling like this is probably going to be my direction.
- 9:27Speaker 1: I mean, not tomorrow or anything. I still got a
- 9:29Speaker 1: few good years left in me. But yeah, somewhere south, south,
- 9:34Speaker 1: south of the border, close to the equator, where it's
- 9:36Speaker 1: warm and my knees don't have to hate me. I'm
- 9:40Speaker 1: kind of liking that idea.
