• 2:49
  Speaker 3: are you, miss Millie? I'm wonderful. How are you? I
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: am fine?
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: I asked you when I came in if your real
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: name was David, and you confirm that it is, they
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: I'll tell you what David Allen.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Someday I'll tell you what my real last name is.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: So there you go.
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: I can't know.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Now nobody in radio uses their real names, you know.
• 3:07
  Speaker 6: Oh so I mean now I had thank you, thank
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: you giving me well.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Did you think Steve Animal's real last name was Animal?
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, come on, come on, Allan's my middle name.
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: Actually, Alan's your middle name. And I don't know you're
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: leaving me out of doubt.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: It's not a it's not a secret. My my my
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: real last name is Gilpen g I L P I N.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: I like that.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: It's uh well. And the reason that I was given
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: the name Dave Allen is when I was seventeen years
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: old and I started my career. The general manager who
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: hired me, I was in high school, and he said
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Gilpin and he said, what's your what's your middle name?
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: I said Alan. He said you're Dave Allen. So there
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: you go. Been Dave Allen. Wasn't always Dave Allen. When
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I was in Ohio was Dave Daniels. That's the name
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: they gave me when I was in Ohio. I don't
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: know why it was Dave Daniels.
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: When I was in youth, had a variety of names.
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: And I'm sure some people along the way about in
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: their own.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Two Yeah, to talk to my wife, uh uh, Mike
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Johnny Fever you know, and w k RP and Cincinnati
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: when he had a coffee cup that had all of
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: his different last names and aliases he'd used a different
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: radios that that's pretty funny now and now I've never
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: never and it was really I'll tell you, it was
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: kind of a source a sore spot with my late
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: father because he saw it as you know, you're ashamed
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: of the family name and so and it was nothing
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: like that. It's just the name that they gave me.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Because back in back in the early days of radio,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: people generally speaking, uh, it was an old radio rule
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: that you had to have two first names. That's why
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: there's people named Randy Michaels and uh and Steve Adams
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: not to be confused with the journalist Steve Adams and
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: names like that, because it was easy to remember, and
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: that's why people everybody used these, you know, easy, easy names.
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: So well, I'm glad my real name is not easy
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: to remember because people know me as Milly. My real
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: name is Mildred, Mildred okay, and I'm not a Mildred no, yeah,
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: i am a mill.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Millifits by the way, happy belated birthday, Thank you very much.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: When was the big days?
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: Sunday?
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Sunday, Sunday, Thank you very much.
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: I got some wonderful cards from my family, some friends,
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: and one friend send me a card. She said, I'm
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: all these lovely things and then on the inside it
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: said We're so much alike. It's frightening.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: It was fabulous.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: You got to have you got to have good friends.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: How old are you? Do you care to say? You
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: don't have to say, you don't want to?
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: Well, I always, I always, you know, counter that with
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: how old do I look?
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: Thirty five?
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: Oh, my goodness, you are. You are beyond a gentleman.
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: On Sunday at five thirty, I was the eighty three.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Eighty three, and I know I don't look at you
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: do not look eighty three.
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: Thank you, And I don't act like I'm eighty three.
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: I don't know what eighty three feels like because this
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: is the first time I'm at eighty three. But I
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: do credit my looking good and feeling good to a
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: way that I eat. And that's what I want people
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: to understand. That food is medicine, and the sooner people
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: find that out and visit us at our Mediterranean Group.
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: We meet at Trinity Lutheran Episcopal over on the Boulevard
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: at Elizabeth Street every Thursday at ten am and five
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: point thirty in the evening, and we're having an open
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: meeting two of them on Thursday, November sixth. Now, an
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: open meeting comes from the world that I lived in
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: for forty seven years, which was weight Watchers, and whenever
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: we had an open meeting, that means anyone can come
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: to find out what we're about, what we do, pick
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: up a lot of the wonderful handouts that we make
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: available every week, and find out for yourself what Mediterranean,
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: what Mediterranean eating is all about. Now, I spoke to
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: someone earlier this morning. They said, you know, if I
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: was going to have have my last meal, it would
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: be a feast of Mediterranean foods. She says, everything that
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: is Mediterranean is delicious. And that's what I want people
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: to know. I'm not wanting people to come and think
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: that they're going on a diet, because Mediterranean is not
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: a diet. It's a lifestyle. And the food is fresh,
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: clean and unbelievably healthy and.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Somewhat affordable. And I say that very much affordable. I'll
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: change that because people always think, well, in order to
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: eat healthy, I've got to spend now a lot of money,
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: and you don't with Mediterranean eating, and.
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: With what's coming down where a lot of people are
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: going to have, you know, less money to work with,
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: I have to say that Mediterranean it can be frozen,
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: it can be canned, it can be unfancy, but as
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: long as it doesn't have chemicals in it, then enjoy it,
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: because that's the way peple. By the way, the Mediterranean
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: population on the other side of the pond is about
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: one hundred and twelve million people, and so it's not
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: just a clatch of five or ten people who created this, right.
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: This is a way of life.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: That is, there's not a much a scientist in a
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: lab that came up with this. In other words, absolutely not.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: I mean this is something that.
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: These are and if God better, every day, every week,
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: every month because people eat together and by being with
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: others who are doing the same thing, it strengthens the
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: way you feel about yourself and you have a more
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: comfortable resolve. Mediterranean is the.
• 8:38
  Speaker 7: Way to go.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Now, if some you mentioned the Mediterranean feast, okay, what
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: would be on Millie Snyder's Mediterranean feast. It's not your
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: last meal, by the way, We're not going there, and
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, I'm just saying, if you were to
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: make a Mediterranean feast, what would it be?
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: Okay, Well, first of all, I would have an unbelievably
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: beautiful salad that would have every vegetable in it. I
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: would season it with the best olive oil, and then
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: I would use lemon juice. Sometimes I use cider vinegar,
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: but it would definitely have olive oil. And then after
• 9:12
  Speaker 6: this gorgeous salad, I'd probably have some whole grain bread
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: with it, maybe a slice, and one of the meats
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: that I love and we actually want people to experience
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: on Mediterranean is Lamb chops or leg of lamb. Potatoes,
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: by the way, are not a carbohydrate. Potatoes are a vegetable,
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: and you can have potatoes the many, many ways that
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: we fix them. You know, for years they've we've blamed
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: potatoes as being fattening, but they're not fattening. They're a vegetable.
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: And what we do here in our country is we
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: load them up with bacon, butter or sour cream cheese.
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: I'm trying to think of some of the other things
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: chives don't count. Nobody that I know ever got fat
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: from chibe, but we blame the potato, and the potato
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: is one of the healthiest things you can eat.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: One of the things that my that my wife and
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: I well, I wash the dishes that my wife is
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: just a thing that my wife makes that we do
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: it with a lot of meals. Is we buy these
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: little potatoes. Yes, and olive oil, yes and uh and
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: yours of right. You know you can put them in
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: an air fryer, or you can put them in the oven.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: It's a parchment paper or whatever. Absolutely delicious.
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: Absolutely you can have them. You can have them whenever.
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: They can be a snack. But the nice thing is
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: that using a good quality olive oil. Don't buy an
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: olive oil that's five ninety nine because that's not a
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: pure olive oil. But you want to spend a little
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: bit for your olive oil. I recommend to trap Ando
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: because it's a beautiful product and it actually is run
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: by the Entrappaneau family. They have a vineyard in Sweezy,
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: Italy and then they send the finished product over here.
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: It's a high quality product. But olive oil can save
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: your life. It can clear your arm, and don't take
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: my word for it. Ask your doctor. If your doctor
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: is in the know as far as nutrition, ask his
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: opinion about Mediterranean And then a new recommendation that started
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: about five six months ago, is right before you go
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: to bed, take one teaspoon of olive oil and just
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: swallow it. And while you're sleeping, that olive oil is
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: doing wonders inside your body to keep things running the
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: way they should.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: As long as they don't run while you're sleeping.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Your fine.
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: Well, I didn't want to actually take this into that area.
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: I will, I don't care, but obviously, thank you.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: I want to tell you a quick story. I thought
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: of you the other day, thank you. There was an
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: article in the Wall Street Journal about a woman who
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: recently passed. She passed away at the age of one
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: hundred and seventeen. That did not make me think of you, Okay,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: did you say? What made me think of you was
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: the fact that she lived the biggest part of her
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: life doing the Mediterranean diet. Now she did do it
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: as a diet, that's just where she lived.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: She had ties to America, but eventually had moved to Spain.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: But you know, and I lived other places, but they
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: was the Mediterranean diet and they were studying her, and
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: they she had given them permission at like age at
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: you know, like age ninety, you know, do whatever you
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: want to be, study me, you know, do what and
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: they did it until the time she passed at one
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: hundred and seventeen. And a couple of the things that
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: that she did was again, she didn't do the Mediterranean diet.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: It's just that was just food, you know, that was
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: just what the word diet what she ate, I mean,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: and it was natural. That's one of the things that
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: she did. They said that she and they can't They
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: weren't trying to link the two things necessarily together, but
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: they said there but but the fact that she had
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: the body makeup on the inside of like a sixty
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: year old and a sixty five and they don't know
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: why they could not figure it out. And and so
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: it's starting to point toward well, maybe it was the
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: diet or the lifestyle, I should say.
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: And when you welcomed me this morning, I said, food
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: is medicine. And the more that people hear that and
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: recognize it and eat food that doesn't have chemicals and preservatives,
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: you know, If you buy mashed potatoes in the grocery store,
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: they make sure that it's gonna be good still in
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: fourteen days because they have to load it up with
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: chemicals and preservatives. If you make mashed potatoes in your
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: own kitchen, I mean you can eat them, you know,
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: one meal, two meals, five meals, whatever, But you don't
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: have to eat foods that are adulterated and hurting your body.
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: Your body doesn't know what to do with those preservatives
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: in those chemicals, and that's where problems are caused. Mediterranean
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: eating doesn't introduce those other additives. That's why it's healthy.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: And I love hearing about this woman who made it
• 13:59
  Speaker 6: to a one hundred and seventeen hundred and seventeen. Now
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: I don't know that I want to go to one seventeen,
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: but I don't.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: If it's a good one hundred and seventeen. If it
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: is fine, right, but you know, if I.
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: Got a check and I want to be able to
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: drive so I can go where I need to go. Yeah,
• 14:11
  Speaker 6: My point that I want to make is that it's
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: great information. More people that are listening near need to
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: hear that. The open meeting that we're planning is so
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: that people can come and learn about what we do
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: and meet other people who are successful with this and
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: having good health and improved health. And they're losing weight
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: as well.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: All right, real quick, we only get about a minute left.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: Next week is trick or treat time? What advice would
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: you give to parents? Because I mean, it's natural they're
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: going to want to trick or treat. It's on a
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: Friday night this year, they're going to want to go
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: out and get the snickers and so on. You know
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: you're not, I mean, you're not an absolutist about this thing,
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: but of course not. I want what advice would you
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: give to parents or grandparents with their kids on trigger treating?
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: If they're going to give out candy and you're going
• 14:56
  Speaker 6: to have some leftover everything, in my mind, have one,

  Speaker 3: you on the show. So nice to meet you. Talk
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: about the work of this commission overall. What exactly do
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: you do?
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Wonderful.
• 19:37
  Speaker 12: Yeah, it's an all volunteer commission and it's made up
• 19:40
  Speaker 12: of twelve individuals from all over the city, different areas
• 19:44
  Speaker 12: of the city, different backgrounds, and we have a formal
• 19:48
  Speaker 12: meeting once a month appointed by the mayor. The City
• 19:54
  Speaker 12: Council confirms us all and we bring all of our
• 19:58
  Speaker 12: talents to the and it's beautifying the city. We have
• 20:02
  Speaker 12: responsibility for several parks, passive parks in the city, Ruffner Park,
• 20:06
  Speaker 12: Davis Park, those kinds of things, and then general beautification
• 20:10
  Speaker 12: of the city of Charleston. So lots of work gets
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: done outside of our meetings with very active committees.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: He had a tree planning ceremony in front of the
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: city Hall yesterday. Talk about that.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was super fun.
• 20:21
  Speaker 12: So, you know, all brought about by our Mayor Amy Goodwin,
• 20:25
  Speaker 12: who was just you know, full of enthusiasm and energy.
• 20:29
  Speaker 12: And in twenty twenty two she kind of reimagined the
• 20:32
  Speaker 12: commission and said, hey, we got to really get some
• 20:35
  Speaker 12: things done and make them happen. So she's been a
• 20:38
  Speaker 12: great supporter. So we had this idea back in April
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: of twenty twenty two. We sat around the table as
• 20:44
  Speaker 12: commissioners and said, we need big ideas, we need some change,
• 20:47
  Speaker 12: we need to shake it up here in Charleston.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: And one of the ideas I got thrown on the.
• 20:51
  Speaker 12: Table was let's do something on the scale of Washington
• 20:55
  Speaker 12: TC and the cherry Blossom festival, and let's just make
• 20:59
  Speaker 12: our riverbank beautiful. And that was the really, Jenner, really
• 21:04
  Speaker 12: the beginning of the idea of planning first one thousand trees.
• 21:07
  Speaker 12: But I'm gonna say we got an audacious We're starting
• 21:11
  Speaker 12: at one thousand, but.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: We want a thousand and we want more. That's a
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: pretty big scale when you compared to Washington d C.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: So where do the trees come from?
• 21:18
  Speaker 12: Yeah, So we have partnered with the same group, the
• 21:22
  Speaker 12: nonprofit group that works with Washington d C. Their name
• 21:26
  Speaker 12: is Casey Tree. It's a nonprofit organization that they grow
• 21:29
  Speaker 12: the trees. They're in charge of the canopy for the
• 21:33
  Speaker 12: City of Washington. They've been with those cherry blossom trees
• 21:37
  Speaker 12: for years there. So we've partnered with them to get
• 21:40
  Speaker 12: the you know, the knowledge and the advice, and they
• 21:43
  Speaker 12: also supply the trees and they grow the trees.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: So that's where we purchased the trees from.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: So Okay, that I mean, that's I wasn't aware of
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: this this organization. That's that's pretty good stuff there. Yeah,
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, so I'm gonna ask you, like a really
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: dumb question, why is this so important?
• 21:58
  Speaker 12: Well, it's important for several reasons. So we look at
• 22:00
  Speaker 12: it as multi pronged. We look at it as economic development.
• 22:03
  Speaker 12: We want to make our city attractive so people who
• 22:08
  Speaker 12: live here can thrive here. We want to bring tourism
• 22:12
  Speaker 12: to our community. We hope, you know, one day that
• 22:14
  Speaker 12: we'll get the throngs of people that Washington, d c.
• 22:17
  Speaker 12: And Japan get to see their cherry blossoms to come
• 22:20
  Speaker 12: to Charleston.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: It also has a lot to.
• 22:22
  Speaker 12: Do with quality of life and the way people feel
• 22:25
  Speaker 12: about living in our community. To make it wonderful for
• 22:28
  Speaker 12: our children has a lot to do with a tree canopy.
• 22:31
  Speaker 12: So while we're looking at flowering trees and beautification as
• 22:35
  Speaker 12: our main we're also going to do tree canopies, elms,
• 22:38
  Speaker 12: and other things that create shade. One of the areas
• 22:42
  Speaker 12: is you know, Magic Island.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: It's a fun place.
• 22:45
  Speaker 12: We have lots of our families and children that go
• 22:47
  Speaker 12: out there, but there is not a speck of shade, which.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: Is kind of important when we come around regatta time
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: for example.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: That's absolutely right. And you know, trees are great, I
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: mean trees.
• 22:57
  Speaker 12: You know, you've got your bird population, your allinator population,
• 23:01
  Speaker 12: You've got, like I said, the shade.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: And it also cleans our air. You know, we have
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: all these cars.
• 23:06
  Speaker 12: You know, it's a metro area, so we need to
• 23:09
  Speaker 12: bring in some you know, ability to clean the air.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: So the enjoyment of the community is enhance.
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: You know, you mentioned the cherry blossoms in d C.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: And again, you know there's a ortal difference between Charleston
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: and d C. We get that. But I got a
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: buddy of mine that actually lives in d C, and
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: a couple of times, you know, when I'm talking to
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: him about one thing or the other, he'll say, well,
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: it's cherry blossom season here, you know, meaning that you know,
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: the tourists and everything come in just just to look
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: at that. Now, it would be nice if we could
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: get that to Charleston, but I mean they had to
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: start somewhere too, right.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: That is exactly right. That is exactly right.
• 23:40
  Speaker 12: Well, and it's interesting said that too, because you know,
• 23:42
  Speaker 12: we talked about this in with the commissions in twenty
• 23:45
  Speaker 12: twenty two, right, and so we've been planning this. We
• 23:47
  Speaker 12: just did a whole renovation of Ruffner Park, so we
• 23:50
  Speaker 12: just wrap that up and so we're ready to kind
• 23:52
  Speaker 12: of take on our next big thing.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: And so we get this call from you know, community people,
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: and that's you know, I.
• 23:59
  Speaker 12: Always say it's like the secret sauce on anything good
• 24:02
  Speaker 12: in a community is to have community involvement. This is
• 24:06
  Speaker 12: not you know, from the top down. This is all
• 24:08
  Speaker 12: about all around and bringing everybody together. So we get
• 24:11
  Speaker 12: these folks and I'm going to tell you there, so
• 24:14
  Speaker 12: Reverend Jack Lippert Liphart and his daughter Lisa Red reach
• 24:19
  Speaker 12: out to the commissioners and say, hey, we want to
• 24:21
  Speaker 12: come talk to you our meetings of public meetings. Right,
• 24:23
  Speaker 12: anybody's welcome to come. Anybody has something they want us
• 24:26
  Speaker 12: to look at, think about talk about. We'll either say yep,
• 24:29
  Speaker 12: in our jurisdiction or no, can't help you.
• 24:31
  Speaker 13: You know.
• 24:32
  Speaker 12: So they came to our meeting and they had just
• 24:33
  Speaker 12: gotten back from visiting DC, and they were all excited
• 24:37
  Speaker 12: and jazzed up and said.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Why can't we do that here?
• 24:41
  Speaker 12: And I mean we have the ideal first setting right
• 24:44
  Speaker 12: all along the river right right, So that's a big
• 24:47
  Speaker 12: part of it. We're having this capital Connector project that's
• 24:51
  Speaker 12: happening that I'm sure your listeners are have some familiarity with.
• 24:54
  Speaker 12: So in line with that, we're gonna you know, we
• 24:57
  Speaker 12: want to see flowering, blossoming ease on both sides of
• 25:01
  Speaker 12: our river, right.
• 25:04
  Speaker 14: Uh.
• 25:04
  Speaker 12: With that, so we're going to scale up. And so
• 25:06
  Speaker 12: you say you got to start somewhere. You know, we're audacious,
• 25:10
  Speaker 12: right right.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: You know, nobody told you you couldn't.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: No what he told us we couldn't, right, Yeah.
• 25:15
  Speaker 12: Yeah, So last year we planted one hundred trees around
• 25:18
  Speaker 12: the city, right, and we're like, all right, we got this.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: You know, we figured out.
• 25:21
  Speaker 12: What's city property, what's state property, what's private property?
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Where can we play.
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: That's a bigger station. Explain that. I didn't mean to
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: interrupt you, but but explain that how do you how
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: do you go about that? You know, this is this
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: is city property, this is state property. This is a
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: hybrid because sometimes that happens too. Uh and uh and
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: and and this is private property. How do you make
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: that DISTINCTIONI yeah.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: Well, well it's interesting.
• 25:45
  Speaker 12: And as I said, you know, we we end up
• 25:47
  Speaker 12: with commissioners that have all kinds of different backgrounds, right
• 25:50
  Speaker 12: and and so we have a commissioner who used to
• 25:54
  Speaker 12: be with the Department of Highways and Department of Transportation,
• 25:58
  Speaker 12: So we got a little ace in the whole there
• 26:00
  Speaker 12: who kind of knows how to navigate that world for
• 26:02
  Speaker 12: us a bit. So finding those places and understanding because
• 26:07
  Speaker 12: that's you know, people from the community to come back
• 26:09
  Speaker 12: to us and say, we don't understand.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Why does this look so bad? They were like, oh,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: I wish we could help you, but we can't.
• 26:17
  Speaker 12: So, like I said, we've done a lot of mapping
• 26:19
  Speaker 12: about to figure out where can we put them, what
• 26:22
  Speaker 12: is private, what is city property?
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Because we really can do only things on city property.
• 26:27
  Speaker 15: Right.
• 26:28
  Speaker 12: However, we have made some outreaches to the First Lady
• 26:33
  Speaker 12: of our state and she is all excited and behind
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: the idea of including the state Capitol grounds. So this
• 26:43
  Speaker 12: week we started planning thirty trees, so got to start somewhere,
• 26:47
  Speaker 12: as she said, yeah, so and some of those trees
• 26:50
  Speaker 12: we planted on the state Capitol grounds to include.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: That, some somebody sent a text here one to what
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: type of trees.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: Oh gosh, that's great. So I knew there would be
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: someone wonderful. He's the one to talk about the trees.
• 27:05
  Speaker 12: Okay, So we laugh because we have what we've described
• 27:10
  Speaker 12: as a tree menu. Okay, so what we're really focusing
• 27:15
  Speaker 12: is predominantly spring flowering trees. That's our you know, things
• 27:20
  Speaker 12: such as Japanese maples or excuse me, Japanese cherries, other cherries,
• 27:24
  Speaker 12: crab apples, plums, service berries, dogwoods, red buds, magnolias, fringe trees.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: So you know, many of your.
• 27:34
  Speaker 12: Viewers listeners are probably aware of those. But we're also
• 27:38
  Speaker 12: going to focus on trees such as maples and elms
• 27:41
  Speaker 12: and other types of species that are important for urban canopy.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: Is how we refer to it.
• 27:49
  Speaker 12: So, and I want your viewers or listeners to understand
• 27:53
  Speaker 12: that we've really carefully considered what we're going to put
• 27:55
  Speaker 12: where it's I'm going to tell you challenging is planting
• 27:59
  Speaker 12: urban trees, right because just the environment we're in, you know,
• 28:02
  Speaker 12: we got cars, we've got people, we got you know,
• 28:05
  Speaker 12: everybody's you know, the sidewalks bumple up.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, we got it. We try to manage it
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: the very best we coult.
• 28:11
  Speaker 12: It's just challenging and survivability is challenging. So we're thinking
• 28:15
  Speaker 12: about that as well. So we've consulted with the West
• 28:19
  Speaker 12: Virginia Division of Forestry. Great partners from us, and can't
• 28:23
  Speaker 12: say enough about Chris Higgins. For those of you who
• 28:26
  Speaker 12: may not know, Chris Higgins is our city arborist. He
• 28:30
  Speaker 12: spends a lot of time at spring Hill.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: Chris has been on the show in the past.
• 28:34
  Speaker 12: There you go spring Hill Cemetery, which is our ratch
• 28:38
  Speaker 12: Tree Arboretum. We have I think four you know, legendary
• 28:41
  Speaker 12: trees you know in the tree world that exists up there.
• 28:45
  Speaker 12: And this relationship with Casey Tree that I mentioned earlier
• 28:49
  Speaker 12: out of Washington, d C. So they really helped us
• 28:52
  Speaker 12: come up with that list and that tree menu. So
• 28:55
  Speaker 12: we will be publishing that so that you all can
• 28:58
  Speaker 12: see exactly, you know, what it is. And what's important
• 29:02
  Speaker 12: to when you think about planting trees is you don't
• 29:05
  Speaker 12: want a monoculture ray. You do not want to have
• 29:08
  Speaker 12: one species of a tree, because that is not healthy.
• 29:12
  Speaker 12: You have trees that you know have different, different lifespans
• 29:16
  Speaker 12: and different things, and you also have to be careful
• 29:18
  Speaker 12: about disease. And so in picking the trees, we've tried
• 29:21
  Speaker 12: to pick trees that you know have vitality and we
• 29:25
  Speaker 12: know that you know do well in environments that we're
• 29:27
  Speaker 12: planning them in. So happy to share that tree list
• 29:31
  Speaker 12: with everyone. So the people, and you know everybody has
• 29:34
  Speaker 12: geeks out on the Latin names and.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: The botanical names. We've got all that for you.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: It's all the things. Yes, sir, it is twenty three
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: minutes away from Tama Day Island show on five Any
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: Live brought to you a part by MORGANE. Morgan. If
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: you're injured to hire Morgan to Morgan, America's largest injury
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: law firm. We did have a text that said, and
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: you already answered it, but I'll read the text. Will
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: there be an arborist or a tree professional taking care
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: of these trees? As good as a job that city
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: workers do. They tend to plant trees too deep and
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: make multi volcanoes that inhabit proper inhibit rather, i'm sorry,
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: proper root growth. So they answered that question though, but.
• 30:07
  Speaker 12: I'm delighted that people care that much and understand and
• 30:11
  Speaker 12: know that much. So that's fantastic. So yeah, we will
• 30:14
  Speaker 12: will absolutely and we're actually going to hire an outside
• 30:17
  Speaker 12: firm to do the planning of the trees because in
• 30:19
  Speaker 12: our research and our studies, what we've determined is it's
• 30:22
  Speaker 12: vital right, you got to get a planner correctly, right,
• 30:26
  Speaker 12: So we're going to go to an outside consultant, you know,
• 30:28
  Speaker 12: affirm to be able to do those because this is
• 30:30
  Speaker 12: a big undertaking you know, our city employees, while they
• 30:33
  Speaker 12: are fantastic, and a big shout out to Brent Webster
• 30:36
  Speaker 12: who does a fantastic job, you know, for caring for
• 30:41
  Speaker 12: our city. So but yes, we will absolutely take that
• 30:44
  Speaker 12: into consideration. I appreciate the feedback.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: What's your timeline looking like here?
• 30:48
  Speaker 12: Okay, Well, like I said, we've got a thousand trees,
• 30:52
  Speaker 12: and we're saying over the next three years, we've like
• 30:55
  Speaker 12: I said, we've got thirty this week, nine hundred and
• 30:57
  Speaker 12: seventy to go. So what our hope is is, and
• 31:01
  Speaker 12: what's been really great is we've just gotten a you know,
• 31:04
  Speaker 12: wellspring of support for this financially, people sharing you know,
• 31:11
  Speaker 12: good good habits or good practices with us as well.
• 31:15
  Speaker 12: So our initial timeline is to do it in three years.
• 31:19
  Speaker 12: So you know, what we've done is, like I said,
• 31:23
  Speaker 12: we've set out this thousand. What we really want, we
• 31:26
  Speaker 12: want two to three thousand. Right that that's our that's
• 31:28
  Speaker 12: our big audacious.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: Plan, right, that's what we want to want to do
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: with this.
• 31:32
  Speaker 12: So so right now, what we've done is we we've
• 31:35
  Speaker 12: set up a funding mechanism, right, We've got city money.
• 31:39
  Speaker 12: One of the things when the mayor kind of redid
• 31:42
  Speaker 12: the commission in twenty twenty two is shit, gave us
• 31:45
  Speaker 12: some money for goodness sakes, right, you can't just make
• 31:48
  Speaker 12: things beautiful without a budget, right, So we have some money,
• 31:51
  Speaker 12: so that's good. And then we also have some private
• 31:54
  Speaker 12: funders that have come in, the Jacobsen Foundation, one of
• 31:58
  Speaker 12: our early supporters there, the Canau Garden Club, who's again
• 32:04
  Speaker 12: and again supports beautification product projects across.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: The city for money.
• 32:09
  Speaker 12: So this is our hope, is it's what we'll do
• 32:12
  Speaker 12: a big, big push early in the spring and hope
• 32:15
  Speaker 12: I hope to wrap up by twenty twenty eight. But
• 32:18
  Speaker 12: if we get the type of support that we are
• 32:20
  Speaker 12: hoping to get you know, this may be a longer
• 32:23
  Speaker 12: term install over time, so we don't want to do
• 32:26
  Speaker 12: more than we can manage and handle.
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: Do you work with any of the school systems in
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: the area. I mean, because I know that there's different
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: organizations within public schools, and I would also think that
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: maybe I'm going to just go aead and throw out there.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: West Virginia State, for example, you know, because they're an
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: agriculture school, they're really really pushing that. Now. Any any
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: partnerships there not.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Not directly on this project.
• 32:46
  Speaker 12: What our partnerships have been on this project is in April,
• 32:51
  Speaker 12: the Canau Garden Club is put together a whole bunch
• 32:55
  Speaker 12: of educational so partnering with West Virginia Read Aloud to
• 32:59
  Speaker 12: get correct them into our libraries about trees and urban
• 33:06
  Speaker 12: canopies and butterflies and all the things that come along
• 33:09
  Speaker 12: with it. Partnering with the Public Arts Group to be
• 33:14
  Speaker 12: able to do public arts with the children. So our
• 33:17
  Speaker 12: initial phage is really focused on school age children.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: But I love your idea about expanding it.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, if you get young if you get
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: younger people involved. By younger, I mean public school or
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: even college age students they're likely to be. You know,
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: when when when at one point you guys say, Okay,
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: I'm kind of tired of this. I want to put
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: I want to put this aside, so get somebody else
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: to take it over, you know.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Yep, we're all volunteers, so yes.

• 33:44

  Speaker 3: a recession and it's going to get worse. It's a texture.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: Tex says Dave. I've seen that Trump wants millions of
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: dollars from the government for being charged crimes he committed.
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: We want billions to cost of taxpayer damage is done
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: on January the sixth. That's a text mentioned earlier. I'll
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: have Tim Brady from the Charleston CVB on the show tomorrow.
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: Aaron Parker with that story posted this morning wv Metro
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: New's dot coy busy June next June of the City
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: of Charleston yesterday the mayor announcing the USA Cycling Pro
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: Road National Championships will be back next year. Of course
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: we knew that already, It's in the contract, but we
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: didn't have the dates. June seventeenth through the twenty first.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: That's big news and a whole lot of money for
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: the economy. The big news though that came out of it,
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: or maybe equal to that, this USA Gymnastics for All Jimfest.
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: That's happening that the Connells Seem Convention Center June twenty fifth,
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: the week after the Pro Road Bike Championships June twenty
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: through the twenty eighth, And again Aaron Parker's got the
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: story posted about it over at the website. Over five
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: hundred athletes be coming in for this and this is
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: abbs absolutely huge for the city and the entire region.
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: More great things going on, and I'm just going to
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: go ahead and say this. And I hesitated whether I
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: should bring this up or not, But when does that
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: ever stop me?
• 44:13
  Speaker 8: Before?
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: I had to laugh at one of the comments on
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: one of the TV station's social media pages yesterday, someone
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: complained about the mayor and the events and said, quote,
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: there's nothing for people of color. That was an exact
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: quote from somebody on one of the TV news sites yesterday.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: That may very well be the most racist thing that
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: I have ever heard, because people of color can't enjoy
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: bicycling and gymnastics. And by the way, the person that
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: posted that was a person of color. So what you're
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: saying is is that people of color cannot enjoy gymnastics.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: I would probably point you toward the name Simone Biles
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: just saying. Tim Brad of the CVB will be on
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: the show tomorrow to talk about that and other events.

• 48:07
  Speaker 3: what activities that person of color would suggest are personal
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: color activities that the city could promote. That's a text true.
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: I just I don't know. For some reason, I just
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: thought that that was just a bizarre statement for somebody
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: to make. But maybe that's just me. I'm want to
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: bring this up, and you know me, I am not
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: a Donald Trump fan. He's a president of the United
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: States and I want him to succeed, But personally I'm
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: not necessarily a fan, but I always want the president
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: to do well. Anyway, this whole hooplaw over him putting
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: a ballroom in the White House. Here's what I say
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: to that. So what it's private donations And if you're
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: keeping score at home, Every president, every president or first
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: lady has made significant changes to the White House. It
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: comes with being president. The West Wing was very controversial
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: when it was first announced by Teddy Roosevelt. Harry Truman
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: completely rebuilt the White House. Every president and or first lady,
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: everyone has done something to the White House. Gerald Ford
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: added a pool, Lady Bird, Johnson redesigned the East garden.
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: Taft made the Oval office, and there's so many jokes
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: there that I might go in toward made it actually oval.
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: Uh fdr included an indoor pool for himself. Nixon added
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: a bowling alley, and we don't even want to talk
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: about what Bill Clinton did in there. So I mean,
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry to poet to quote my good friend Pastor Collins,
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: miss me, miss me with that outrage. I like you,
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: and I saw the footage on television of you know,
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: the cranes and what being taken to the back of
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: the White House. I didn't particularly care for it either,
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: to be honest with you. But he's the president duly
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: elected president, and every president and every first lady has
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: done something to the White House. So comes comes with
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: the title on the door. But Dave Island showing five

• 50:40
  Speaker 3: You don't like it? I don't mind it. I think
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: it's fine.
• 50:44
  Speaker 15: The thing I don't like is when they have altered
• 50:47
  Speaker 15: the East wing like they were taking some of the
• 50:49
  Speaker 15: East wing off yesterday.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: And if you saw this, I.
• 50:51
  Speaker 15: Don't care for that. Make it. I put it there
• 50:54
  Speaker 15: on the grounds that's fine. Just I wouldn't have altered
• 50:58
  Speaker 15: the east wing. That's all I'm well.
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: Here is uh and yes it's Texas said Obama. Put
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: it in a basketball court. I think I mentioned that.
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: If not, I certainly meant to, you know, I just
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: I don't. I don't really care to be honest with you.
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: I'm more concerned with what's going on with governmental shutdowns. Oh, Yeah,
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: I'm more concerned with what's going on in Argentina than
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: I am whether the president puts a ballroom on there
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: that's going to be used by other presidents after I'm not.
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: I don't really care that much. Yeah, just I mean,
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: I don't Rose Garden, No Rose Garden. The next sky
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: will do whatever you want. I mean Bill Clinton did
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: whatever he wanted in there, that's for sure, Texas days.
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: Don't you know that every little thing being declared racist
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: is the acceptable, encouraged and defended stand to take in
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: this insane, woke world. Tex says the East Wing is
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: the first Lady's Wing. No wonder Trump is tearing it down.
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: Milania has no idea of what to do about anything.
