- 0:00Speaker 1: Blazer and I were talking about two weeks ago about
- 0:03Speaker 1: the Rush Rush does not limball the group Rush deciding
- 0:07Speaker 1: that they were going to a tour once again, and
- 0:09Speaker 1: it was a very limited tour, but they've added some
- 0:12Speaker 1: another seventeen dates, two of which are here in Ohio.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Are you going?
- 0:16Speaker 1: Uh? No, I don't. I want to remember them as
- 0:19Speaker 1: they were. I don't want to see whatever they are now.
- 0:22Speaker 3: I don't know how good are they or what's her
- 0:24Speaker 3: name or not? The Aniga, Yeah, I think she's a
- 0:27Speaker 3: great drummer, but is the voice.
- 0:29Speaker 2: Getty's voice is what? Okay? Yeah, I mean, I just
- 0:32Speaker 2: I don't know. If everybody says, oh my gosh, they're great,
- 0:35Speaker 2: I might.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Change my mind, But for right now, I don't think
- 0:37Speaker 1: i'd be going to see them. They're playing September seventeenth
- 0:40Speaker 1: and nineteenth of twenty twenty six Cleveland, Ohio.
- 0:43Speaker 2: Rocket Arena. In case you are interested.
- 0:45Speaker 1: Talking about George Santos and if we get time, we'll
- 0:47Speaker 1: get into this nil for high school students as well,
- 0:49Speaker 1: because personally, I don't have a problem with it. I
- 0:52Speaker 1: seriously don't A two one nine eight eight six the
- 0:54Speaker 1: number eight two one WUTV and let's start plowing through
- 0:56Speaker 1: these calls. Here data you're on sixt ten double UTVN.
- 1:00Speaker 4: I think these players should get money, uh for the
- 1:03Speaker 4: use of their names.
- 1:05Speaker 5: First of all.
- 1:06Speaker 4: Second and all when he only Clinton was charged for
- 1:10Speaker 4: espions for the service she had and the directory that
- 1:15Speaker 4: I said he found were five different nations got in
- 1:18Speaker 4: there and got information. Twenty of our spies we had
- 1:24Speaker 4: in the sight of China, Chuck, they disappeared. And I'll
- 1:28Speaker 4: tell you right now, when I'm told the China is
- 1:31Speaker 4: not good uh to those who they catch spying against them.
- 1:36Speaker 4: And then and the cion sent in the initiative when
- 1:39Speaker 4: she was Secretary of State used their door position to
- 1:43Speaker 4: make good deals with Roger with with the uranium and
- 1:47Speaker 4: things like that. When she is in the jail, then
- 1:49Speaker 4: then we'll discuss George Santos.
- 1:53Speaker 1: I know.
- 1:53Speaker 4: Then these whiny people they need to look in the mirror.
- 1:57Speaker 1: I agree, Dana, she did plenty that was was prosecutable,
- 2:01Speaker 1: if you will, and yeah, I agree, I just I
- 2:04Speaker 1: don't think that relieves Santos or Santos supporters of the
- 2:10Speaker 1: responsibility to be honest and ethical and what you say,
- 2:13Speaker 1: you should still pay your price. Yeah, I think absolutely,
- 2:17Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, there should be a serious investigation into her serious.
- 2:22Speaker 1: More people are worried about whether Bill was on Epstein's
- 2:25Speaker 1: island than are worried about what kind of documentation and
- 2:28Speaker 1: secrets and uranium and so forth she might have provided
- 2:32Speaker 1: China or Russia, or about the billions of dollars of
- 2:36Speaker 1: uh set on a my series talking to me on
- 2:40Speaker 1: a Iraqi runway or Ranian runway. The questions are there,
- 2:46Speaker 1: nobody wants to ask them out loud, and that's a problem.
- 2:50Speaker 1: A two one nine eighty six eight two one DOUBTVN. Tom,
- 2:52Speaker 1: you're on six ten double UTVN. Yes, sir, how are
- 2:56Speaker 1: you fine?
- 2:57Speaker 6: Are you all right? I'm on a hard no on Santos.
- 3:03Speaker 6: I think he should be held accountable for everything he's done,
- 3:08Speaker 6: what happened to liberty and justice for all, and that
- 3:13Speaker 6: they call her they should be held to a higher standard.
- 3:18Speaker 1: All right, we're on the same page, Tom, I appreciate you,
- 3:20Speaker 1: Thanks very much. A two one WTV is it number?
- 3:25Speaker 1: Especially since we, I mean we as the you know,
- 3:28Speaker 1: call yourself conservative, call yourself Republican, call yourself Trump whatever,
- 3:34Speaker 1: we on the right side of the political spectrum. Who
- 3:37Speaker 1: are constantly, constantly talking about law and order. Sometimes you
- 3:44Speaker 1: got to whip your own kids, you know what I mean.
- 3:48Speaker 1: And if you let your kid get away with stuff
- 3:50Speaker 1: just because it's your kid, and what the neighbors kid
- 3:52Speaker 1: prosecuted for the same thing, then then I've got to
- 3:55Speaker 1: tell you you're part of the problem we have in
- 3:56Speaker 1: this society. Everything is about how it affects you directly,
- 4:00Speaker 1: not the greater good, but you.
- 4:03Speaker 3: I always thought that these people are hired to do
- 4:06Speaker 3: a job. They work for us. If I hire somebody
- 4:08Speaker 3: at say Target, to stockshelves and they do a bad job,
- 4:12Speaker 3: I'm not going to go. But it's okay because they
- 4:14Speaker 3: align with me with certain things. No, you deserve these
- 4:18Speaker 3: people deserve to be held accountable, regardless of who they are.
- 4:21Speaker 3: I've always kind of harder on people.
- 4:23Speaker 2: I expect more.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Out of well, yeah, and I think all of this
- 4:25Speaker 1: are it's kind of human nature. Eight two, one, nine
- 4:27Speaker 1: eighty six numbers. Steve, You're on sixten wutv in Hi Chuck.
- 4:32Speaker 7: Thank you. First. The high school players should absolutely make money,
- 4:36Speaker 7: I think, I mean, that's just my opinion. I have
- 4:39Speaker 7: no problem with it. Anybody that can make money legally
- 4:43Speaker 7: should you know, I go for it, you know. So,
- 4:47Speaker 7: But on the Santos thing, I didn't know much about it,
- 4:51Speaker 7: but I did read up a little bit. I still
- 4:52Speaker 7: don't I'm not too much up on it. But the
- 4:54Speaker 7: only thing that makes sense to me is maybe Trump
- 4:58Speaker 7: he had some information at Trump it on somebody or
- 5:01Speaker 7: something like that. That's the only thing that made sense
- 5:03Speaker 7: to me. I still can't make sense of it. I
- 5:07Speaker 7: don't know. I'm with you if the optics is pretty bad.
- 5:12Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know. He was such a low
- 5:14Speaker 1: level government person. I mean, he had just been elected,
- 5:17Speaker 1: so it's uh, I don't know what he might have
- 5:20Speaker 1: had to offer the president that would be worthy of
- 5:23Speaker 1: of that kind of deal.
- 5:25Speaker 7: But I know it was all kind of questionable, right,
- 5:28Speaker 7: you know what I mean, even if that was the case,
- 5:30Speaker 7: what would it be? What? What would it? You know?
- 5:33Speaker 7: I had no clue.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Yeah, he comes across as one of those slimy slug
- 5:38Speaker 1: people that just he always has somebody's secret, He's always
- 5:40Speaker 1: trading off somebody else's well being for his own upward mobility.
- 5:44Speaker 1: I just I just don't like the guy from what
- 5:47Speaker 1: I know of him, And and I definitely don't think
- 5:49Speaker 1: he should get off. Get off without serving his sentence
- 5:54Speaker 1: behind you, Chuck, I appreciate you, Steve, thanks very much.
- 5:57Speaker 1: And you said you think the high school kids out
- 5:59Speaker 1: of mean money.
- 6:00Speaker 2: I agree. I agree.
- 6:03Speaker 1: Look, high school kids out there playing high school ball,
- 6:08Speaker 1: hoping they get recruited by a college, get a scholarship,
- 6:11Speaker 1: make a name for themselves, get drafted into the NFL,
- 6:15Speaker 1: get to be a professional athlete.
- 6:16Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.
- 6:17Speaker 1: They're risking the same spinal injuries, concussions, broken bones, and
- 6:24Speaker 1: everything else that every player at every level gets. I mean,
- 6:29Speaker 1: there's no difference. There is no difference. Now, if a
- 6:32Speaker 1: high school kid had a what do you call those
- 6:35Speaker 1: pages where you influencer page on the internet, would you
- 6:39Speaker 1: tell them they can't make money if they were I
- 6:45Speaker 1: don't know, Michael Jackson, would you tell them they can't
- 6:49Speaker 1: make money using their gifts their talents to elevate themselves
- 6:56Speaker 1: to a point where people are recognizing them and willing
- 6:59Speaker 1: to to buy things because they put their name on them.
- 7:05Speaker 1: If it wasn't part of high school athletics, would you
- 7:09Speaker 1: have a problem with it. You know, my daughter is
- 7:14Speaker 1: a beautiful artist. She was making money as a teen
- 7:17Speaker 1: by taking people would send her pictures of their pets
- 7:22Speaker 1: and she would do a Chelsea portrait of the pets.
- 7:25Speaker 1: She paints beautifully, paints quickly, and she would take those
- 7:27Speaker 1: pictures and turn them into canvas. And now you can
- 7:31Speaker 1: have computers do it. And I think she's kind of
- 7:33Speaker 1: lost her love for it because it can be automated.
- 7:36Speaker 1: But she took a lot of pride in that she
- 7:38Speaker 1: was making money. Should I have said no, no, no,
- 7:41Speaker 1: you can't sign them. You can't put your name on them.
- 7:43Speaker 1: You have to do it anonymously because your your name,
- 7:46Speaker 1: image and enlightenness. You're too young to be making money.
- 7:48Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't agree with this. I don't
- 7:53Speaker 1: think that it's that it's it's sensible to tell people
- 8:00Speaker 1: that they cannot use their own name, their own image,
- 8:04Speaker 1: their own likeness to make their own money. I just
- 8:08Speaker 1: I think that's silly. Ohio High School Athletic Association said
- 8:12Speaker 1: you can't do it. A judge has put a temporary
- 8:14Speaker 1: stay on their order. I don't know how long that
- 8:18Speaker 1: will last. I don't know what will happen to any
- 8:20Speaker 1: deals that are struck during the course of that stay.
- 8:24Speaker 1: But I'm glad we are hearing this A two one
- 8:26Speaker 1: w TV and the number Mike, you're on the Legacy
- 8:28Speaker 1: Retirement Group dot com phone lines.
- 8:29Speaker 5: Hi, Yeah, I hate to call people names. But yeah,
- 8:32Speaker 5: I think that's stupidity. I think it's total ridiculousness. The
- 8:36Speaker 5: kids go to high school to learn not to make money.
- 8:40Speaker 5: Another thing is when the property tax when when they
- 8:44Speaker 5: lets go and we vote that, Now them and the
- 8:47Speaker 5: kids are goo to be out of ship, out of Look,
- 8:49Speaker 5: they're gonna have to learn.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Okay, dude, you got you gotta learn not to call
- 8:52Speaker 1: the air and use words. It'll get me in trouble.
- 8:57Speaker 1: First of all, you didn't call me a name. He
- 9:00Speaker 1: apologized for he hates to call people names. I think
- 9:04Speaker 1: what he was doing was disagreeing with me. But he
- 9:06Speaker 1: moved on to property taxes so quickly. I couldn't keep
- 9:08Speaker 1: it where he's going with yea.
- 9:10Speaker 2: Me either, and I disagree. I had Did you have
- 9:13Speaker 2: a job in high school?
- 9:14Speaker 3: I mode lawns, and then in my senior year as
- 9:17Speaker 3: a worked at kmart.
- 9:20Speaker 1: Okay for a very short time, but that was the job.
- 9:23Speaker 1: You were out there making money and had a paycheck.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Your labor, your services generated an income for you. I
- 9:34Speaker 1: started working as his paperwoy at eleven years old, got
- 9:37Speaker 1: my first job in the circulation department for what was
- 9:40Speaker 1: then the Columbus Dispatch Citizen Journal circulation office. When I
- 9:43Speaker 1: was sixteen, my district manager called the boss down there
- 9:47Speaker 1: and said, Hey, this kid's been carrying for me for
- 9:49Speaker 1: five years now and he's having a birthday.
- 9:51Speaker 2: So for my birthday, I got that job.
- 9:54Speaker 1: Worked in the circulation department throughout the high school and
- 9:59Speaker 1: UH and immediately after high school and turning eighteen, went
- 10:02Speaker 1: to work for AT and T. So, I mean, I've
- 10:03Speaker 1: been bringing in a paycheck since I was eleven. And
- 10:09Speaker 1: if somebody would have told me, well, because you're in school,
- 10:13Speaker 1: you can't do that, I don't think so.
- 10:16Speaker 3: I mean actors child actor says, and actors get money.
- 10:20Speaker 1: Rush Limbaugh was on the air at sixteen.
- 10:24Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, wasn't he sixteen seventeen.
- 10:26Speaker 1: Many of the legends in this business started broadcasting in
- 10:29Speaker 1: their teens. There's not much room for them to do
- 10:34Speaker 1: that these days. But with the advent of you know, broadband,
- 10:38Speaker 1: internet and podcasts, anything's possible for these youngsters. And that's great.
- 10:44Speaker 1: But to tell them, no, you can't you don't want
- 10:47Speaker 1: them tuning into the Chuck Douglas podcast because you're only fifteen,
- 10:52Speaker 1: and it would be wrong of you to use your
- 10:54Speaker 1: name and get people to subscribe to your podcast because
- 10:58Speaker 1: you're only fifteen.
- 10:59Speaker 2: That's just I think that's crazy.
- 11:02Speaker 1: So I hope the High School Athletic Association rethinks their
- 11:05Speaker 1: position on this. I mean, these kids are they're trying
- 11:12Speaker 1: to get out of wherever they are, and they hope
- 11:14Speaker 1: to get some of that college nil money and then
- 11:17Speaker 1: some of that NFL money. It's all about money. And
- 11:20Speaker 1: if in the meantime they are going out and risking
- 11:22Speaker 1: life and limb on the court, on the field, in
- 11:25Speaker 1: the water, whatever they do athletically, well, what happens when
- 11:31Speaker 1: that you know, tenth grade student is in a diving
- 11:35Speaker 1: competition and God forbids, something happens, the dive goes wrong
- 11:38Speaker 1: and they end up paralyzed. Was it wrong for them
- 11:43Speaker 1: to have been getting an endorsement for a Nike swimwear
- 11:47Speaker 1: or something that might help their family take care of
- 11:50Speaker 1: those medical bills, That might do something to provide for
- 11:54Speaker 1: the mother and or father that will be taking care
- 11:56Speaker 1: of them most likely the rest of their life. You're
- 12:01Speaker 1: telling me that it's unacceptable for them to generate an
- 12:06Speaker 1: income from their name, image, or likeness because they're in
- 12:12Speaker 1: high school, they're teenagers. I think it's wrong, and hopefully
- 12:17Speaker 1: the the timporary state will become a permanent state. But
- 12:21Speaker 1: we will see how that works out. Anything from you, Zach.
- 12:24Speaker 1: We haven't seen each other for like three days now,
- 12:26Speaker 1: and I know it's glorious. I was going to say
- 12:29Speaker 1: I kind of miss talking to you, but I guess
- 12:31Speaker 1: I'm going to take that back. Everything was.
- 12:34Speaker 3: It was a decent weekend other than you getting punched
- 12:38Speaker 3: in the face by offence.
- 12:39Speaker 2: It wasn't punched.
- 12:40Speaker 1: It just rolled off the shelf in the top of
- 12:42Speaker 1: the garage and kind of nicked up my face, that's all.
- 12:46Speaker 2: It did.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Look like you got it like somebody just jabbed you
- 12:49Speaker 3: a few times. Am I in jail and I'm glad
- 12:52Speaker 3: that you're okay?
- 12:53Speaker 2: Nobody jabbed me.
- 12:55Speaker 1: It's evident by the fact that I didn't call you
- 12:57Speaker 1: for bail money music.
- 13:02Speaker 3: Is that a way for you to say, if I
- 13:03Speaker 3: call you, answer the phone because you just never know.
- 13:06Speaker 1: Basically, if I at two o'clock in the morning, the
- 13:08Speaker 1: phone rings and it's meat, Yeah, pick up okay, because
- 13:11Speaker 1: that's that's serious, very very serious stuff.
- 13:14Speaker 2: I'm in jail again. Time for me to fly.
