2:46
give those to those in need. And the timing cannot be better with us
2:51
the coldest weather we've had so far this winter is about I think when I
2:53
left the house this morning, about eight degrees and it's even gonna get colder.
2:58
They say this weekend actually colder Saturday than what it is this morning,
3:01
So great timing. Uh, And it's tomorrow and we'll get into that a
3:07
little bit later on as well. So we got a lot of stuff I
3:08
want to get to. I want to get to it. My good friend
3:10
Millie Snyder from the Shape Shop, how are you? I am, Well,
3:15
I'm not going to be stupid and sam cold. Yes, it's cold
3:19
outside, but I must admit we're in a heat wave. When I left
3:22
my house it was six. When I got down here it was eleven.
3:25
So that's a heat wave. It is a heat wave. Indeed, do
3:28
you have a good holiday season? Yes, somebody, I haven't had you
3:30
on. I had to think, I haven't had you on since since Christmah
3:35
towards the e and it was wonderful and it was just good to be with
3:40
family and friends and I love that part all right now, So you wanted
3:44
me to pay attention to your T shirt that you had on this morning,
3:49
and obviously it's radio so maybe I'll get I'll get a picture of it.
3:53
We'll post it on the social media afterwards. How's that now? And what
3:55
does it say? Again? So it has never underestimated an old woman who
4:00
graduated from FPHS. And that would be Forest Park High School. And as
4:05
many people know, I was not born in West Virginia. I apologize,
4:11
but as they say, you got here as quickly as you could, thank
4:14
you as quickly as I could. And yes, I arrived when I was
4:16
twenty four years old. No, I was twenty eight year I don't remember
4:20
how old I was anyway. I was born in nineteen forty two and I
4:25
came in nineteen sixty nine, so I think I was twenty seven. Yes,
4:29
And Forest Park is ours Park is a high school in ball Baltimore,
4:33
Maryland's at your alma man. Yeah, people like Barry Levinson actually was in
4:40
my years film directory, the film director, and Kenny Wasteman, who was
4:44
a wonderful a Broadway producer. Just so many wonderful people came out of my
4:51
year and you and me, of course, Yes, I have the shirt
4:57
that I decided to wear it's cold outside this too. What kind of student
5:00
was Millie Snyder in school? I held my own. I didn't excel,
5:04
but I also didn't fail out. Middle of the pack, the middle of
5:10
the pack, and I had too many diversions and that what were some of
5:14
the diversions? Were you an athletes? Did you father who wasn't well and
5:16
I had to take care of him, and I didn't have the kind of
5:20
concentration that I have developed in the later years of my life. You a
5:28
banded student, cheerleader, aptlete, chess club, none of that, none
5:31
of the above. The student. And that's because I had to go to
5:35
work as soon as I got off to school, because I had to help
5:39
my parents. What kind of work did you do? Oh, you name
5:41
it? I did it, I took I actually took care of a young
5:44
man who had muscular district and uh, as soon as I left school,
5:51
I went to his house and I was able to feed him and help him
5:57
in whatever ways possible, so we could, you know, struggle through the
6:02
grades that he had to accomplish, the homework that he had to do,
6:08
and after that stopped because his mother found full time help so that she could
6:15
go to work. I think back that it was indeed an honor to be
6:20
able to help him in whatever small one. That's awesome, that's awesome.
6:26
Even then you were helping people. Yes, and I didn't realize that that
6:29
would continue to manifest itself. So let's do it to shape shot. What
6:31
do you got going on, Well, we have some of the most wonderful
6:34
hot soup. In fact, we're playing games perfect for today. Yes,
6:38
we're playing games on our social media that if you have a certain name,
6:45
come in and we'll give you free soup. Really actually, well you just
6:50
have to call in or we have to walk in the store and you say
6:54
your name. But now we're saying, you know, if whatever your name
6:58
is, if you walk in and say I'm Dave Allen, we're gonna say,
7:00
oh, you get free soup because a lot of peach just just for
7:04
being Dave Allen. And our soup, as you know, if you don't
7:09
know, is hot, delicious, freshly made it and you need to not
7:13
only have it when you're in the store, but by all means take it.
7:15
So it's almost like let's make a deal or something. You know,
7:18
like you remember how Mammy Hall used to do Let's make a deal, and
7:20
you know that thing is coming back with some kind of a They're gonna do
7:25
it on a scary island with snakes. I'm not entering. What kind of
7:30
soups? Do you have? White bean, chicken chili, vegetable soup,
7:35
taco soup? And the taco soup is wonderful? Can you have taco soup?
7:40
But with that we make a unbelievable taco salad. Okay, And that's
7:46
just a few of this. What is it that makes your soup so good?
7:49
Now? I know you're gonna give me the healthy aspects of it,
7:51
and that's very important, But what is it that makes it taste so good?
7:55
Well? I could lie to you and tell you I stick my finger
7:58
in it, but that would be a lie. It would also be against
8:01
health. It was a health department. Everything we put in the soup is
8:07
fresh, nothing is there's no chemicals, nothing is preserved in that. And
8:13
yeah, we do preserve it. We put it in the freezer. That's
8:16
the preservation brought. What's your favorite of the soup chili? I mean,
8:20
I can eat that for breakfast, lunch, supper. It's just wonderful and
8:24
it would be great to go. And oh, I forgot my gosh,
8:30
Emily will kill me. A stuffed pepper soup we were making. We used
8:33
to make it with green peppers, but a lot of people can't handle the
8:37
green peppers, so we use it with red, yellow, and orange peppers,
8:43
and we use ground turkey and brown rice. And you want a good,
8:48
hearty stick to the rib soup, you got to come in and get
8:52
our stuffed peppers. And that's what you need. Like this time of year,
8:56
it is delicious. You want it hot. You wanted delicious, Because
8:58
I will have to say that as of yesterday, when I was watching my
9:01
wife shovel the driveway, that was so I would have loved to have had
9:07
some awful lot of chivalry going on in your house. Well her, I
9:09
got her a shovel. I mean, what more do you want? I'm
9:13
kidding. I'm kidding mostly today Allan showing five ay line bright you mark by
9:16
Bridge Valley. Are you interested in improving your company's IT workforce? Did you
9:20
know that Bridge Valley offers custom tailored IT Traurney to Bridge of Skills gap a
9:24
Bridge Valley you can train for a little or no cost with a fifty to
9:26
fifty salary matchless. Bridge Valley can also supply skilled graduates and apprenticeships for your
9:31
company. There's a Bridge Valley dot edu slash apprenticeships today, all right,
9:35
So I got to give a big shout out on my drag and I know
9:39
everybody listening right now is probably going to say, well, it's not like
9:41
that in my neighborhood, because that's what we do as human beings. But
9:45
I will have to say that overall, I think that the city of Charleston
9:50
and the surrounding areas have done a pretty good job on snow removal overall.
9:54
Now there's going to be exceptions to that because it can't be everywhere, but
9:56
right, and I'm very, very pleased. I had zero problems getting in
10:00
the house getting out of the house, and I'm grateful for that. But
10:03
what I do want to talk about for just a few minutes. You know,
10:07
in the real estate market, they often say buy or beware mm hm,
10:09
and I want to say the same thing with some of these diet drugs
10:13
that are literally flooding the newsway the news and the TIV radio. Read a
10:20
big article on the Wall Street Journal about it, actually just a couple of
10:22
days ago, about one of those type drugs you're talking about, and I
10:26
just want people to throw caution to the wind and know that they're talking about
10:31
all of us, and the better advice is to learn how to eat healthfully
10:37
and not let drugs be the reason that you bring your weight down. On
10:43
the Internet today, I just read an article that a friend sent me.
10:46
A woman who was a weight loss influencer out of Brazil actually has passed away
10:54
and she did the gastric bypass. And I'm telling you that there is Yes,
11:01
people want to be thin, but if they sacrifice eating healthfully and they
11:07
need to learn how to do that, there is help available, such as
11:11
what I do on Thursdays where I teach the Mediterranean lifestyle. Now I know
11:16
this sounds like a commercial, but I want people to know food is not
11:22
the enemy if we can learn what to choose, how to put it together,
11:28
how much to eat and be good to ourselves. So I just have
11:33
to tell people to borrow that expression. Buyer. Beware, there is no
11:39
miracle. There is no I mean in my opinion, and I'm certainly not
11:43
a doctor and certainly not the picture of health either, but I will say
11:46
this, I don't know how any good is going to come from putting chemistry
11:50
in your body. And I'm a big believer in the fact that the less
11:56
medicines that you put in your body of any kind, the better off you
12:01
are. I'm happy to say, fifty three years old them again. I
12:03
gotta I got a bit of a gut because I like bad things for me.
12:07
But I will say this, I do not take any medication, and
12:11
probably never will. I never you're doing good if I take an aspirin.
12:16
If I have a headache and I don't get headaches, I cause them.
12:18
But I will say this, I do not take any medication. I never.
12:24
I mean, for the there have been some exceptions, and I kind
12:26
of pride myself on that. Don't put chemistry in your body. I mean,
12:30
just simply don't do it. We didn't get sat by chemistry. We
12:33
got sat by eating too much of things that we love. And even if
12:37
you don't love it, you eat it because it happens to be sitting there.
12:41
And we are just not discriminate when it comes to taking care of ourselfs
12:45
because we don't know how to do it, and so chemistry isn't the answer,
12:50
you know. Over the years of bringing weight watchers to West Virginia and
12:54
now it's pretty much gone, although it is available on the line, I
12:58
have to say I lived through as did my business during the days of Finfen
13:05
and Reducs, and I saw so many people have forever health problems from the
13:11
finfen. And then also there was another drug and that was called Reducs,
13:16
and that caused primary pulmonary hypertension. And what was the thing people wanted the
13:22
most was to be thin, but at the cost of their health. And
13:26
the same thing is underfoot right now. Buyer, beware, look at yourself
13:33
and know that your body can change, but you've got to reach out for
13:37
the right pattern purpose way. Millie Snyder from the Shape Shop, it was

on in the show. Former US attorney, current centator, and the man
17:48
who would like to be the next Attorney General of the State of West Virginia,
17:51
Mike Stewart is here. Mike, good morning, Welcome to the show.
17:53
Hey, good morning, Thanks for having me on this very very very
17:56
cold morning. Billie Snyder, hitch up, tay all the things you're doing
17:59
wrong in your dietary life. I got to tell you, she's fabulous.
18:03
Though she looks great, she provides a great service. I'm gonna have to
18:07
I'm gonna have to check that out, all right. So, how's se
18:10
session been so far? Let's start with their how's the session been so far?
18:12
You've been making some headlines, and we'll get to that a little bit
18:15
later on, but just overall, I know you're only a week in,
18:17
but how's the session been so far? Well, that's the theme. We're
18:19
only a weekend and there's still a lot of work to do. I think
18:22
right now, Senators, House of Delegate members getting their bills in for folks
18:26
to consider. We're looking at the proposals the governor put out in the Stay
18:30
of the State, not all of us agree on what the solutions are.
18:34
I think we're moving in the right direction, but we still have a ton
18:37
of work to do. Often we talk about the victories, but there's a
18:41
lot of challenges out there. I'm one of those folks that support the elimination
18:45
of the Social Security tax entirely. I think we'll have a big discussion on
18:48
that. I don't know where it ends up, but I think we have
18:52
to continue to cut taxes. I think there's still an appetite for that,
18:55
but we have to pay for the taxes that we cut. And the governor
18:57
spent a lot of time talking about raises and things of that nature, and
19:02
some in the Senate, including leadership. I know Senator Tar was one of
19:04
those that kind of came out and said, well, you know, we
19:07
gotta we don't we don't know if the money is all there. And that's
19:10
kind of just him talking about the governor, him campaigning for Senate and try
19:14
to score points. And then there's a there's beef there, you know,
19:17
between Tar and Justice and her husband. For some time. Where are you
19:18
on all this? Well, I don't want to get involved in an exactly
19:22
one between these two candidates and listen the way I view these things. Uh.
19:26
I think the governors had a pretty phenomenon. West Virginia's had a phenomenal
19:30
record under Governor Justice. And I'll say this about Governor Justice. His empathy,
19:33
his heart for people. I see it up close. That emotion he
19:37
showed in that state of the state was real and legitimate. And his leadership
19:42
during COVID, whether you agree with the exact direction we went, he was
19:47
hands on and watching that whole thing happen. I think there were some good
19:49
proposals, but devils in the details. Can we afford all these proposals?
19:53
And so I'm gonna look at each one of them one by one, make
19:57
a determination. If we can afford it, let's do it. Let's continue
20:02
to grow. But we have to pay our bills and we have to make
20:04
sure we do so prudently. But again, I support the elimination of SoC
20:07
security tax. I think we need to look at a pay increase for state
20:11
workers, certainly inflation because of what's happened from this Biden administration that's been so
20:18
devastating for our country. I think it's important we address the challenges working families
20:23
have. And there are other proposals folks didn't talk about, Like I did
20:26
not realize until recently. We tax diapers in West Virginia. Diapers, we
20:32
tax baby formula in West Virginia. We're pro family. I think these are
20:36
things we need to talk about to make sure we're doing everything we're going to
20:40
do to help working families get by, thrive, succeed, and raise their
20:44
families. One of the things, again we're talking with the state Senator Mike
20:47
Stewart, also a candidate for Attorney General. Mike, one of the things
20:49
that I know that you talked about and that you helped to get done was
20:52
the elimination or moving the inspection stickers to every other year. Now i'm seeing
20:57
talking and I just caught a little bit of it on social media that may
21:00
be talking that there's some movement on to eliminate them totally. So listen.
21:04
I was supportive of that, but we had to cut a deal so we
21:07
could get something passed. I mean, it's like making sausage. It's true
21:10
what they say about that when you look at legislation. So my proposal originally
21:14
was three years, but we got a deal. In fact, I was
21:15
told it's just a fact I was told there's no way ste it, you
21:19
will ever be able to get this bill passed that extends those inspection stickers beyond
21:25
the one year, and we had resistance on this. Ultimately we said let's
21:29
do it for two years. I think folks are excited by it. Gosh,
21:33
for our first year state senator in his first session to get a bill
21:37
that's going to touch every single auto owner in West Virginia impacted, it's a
21:41
good thing. I don't know that we're going to get it removed entirely.
21:45
I welcome the debate, but I think that one hundred percent improvement over where
21:49
we were, I'll take it. I'm really pleased by it. There's been
21:52
talk about the death penalty, Mike. I know that you and some others
21:59
have talked about it from a standpoint of maybe those that are dealing fininyl and
22:03
manufacturing finanyl, but you've talked about it doing maybe extending the conversation a little
22:11
further. Well, they're going to be two bills introduced on this. My
22:14
bill is very simple. It's the First Responder Defense in Justice Act, the
22:18
First Responder Defense and Justice Act. It's very narrowly tailored to protect first responders
22:23
in the line of duty. If you're someone who ambushes a law enforcement officer,
22:30
a first responder in the line of duty leading to death, the death
22:33
penalty should be on the table. No question. The fentanyl issue, we're
22:37
going to have to sit down and talk about what the parameters are. You
22:40
get into issues of potency and purity and testing. But my bill is a
22:45
standalone bill. It's Bill number four seventy three in the Senate. It was
22:49
just introduced yesterday. I'm eager for the debate. There's growing support in both
22:56
bodies for this bill, and it provides the if you ambush or kill a
23:00
law enforcement officer in the line of duty or a first responder, death penalties
23:04
on the table. And I'll say that in the case of people like Sergeant
23:07
Corey Maynard, and many of your listeners may know this name on an ordinary
23:12
day, and I'm doing it. In quote, Sergeant Corey Maynard went to
23:17
a problem down in Mingo County and literally was ambushed by this gentleman. Hard
23:22
to call him a gentleman, shot him multiple times with his rifle through his
23:26
bullistic vest because rifle shots go through. As he lay dying out on the
23:33
ground, this fiend took the butt of his rifle and walked up to him
23:38
and started beating on him to crack his skull open. He died. There's
23:42
videotape of this. It's devastating. I pray for his family to this day.
23:47
He was sold of the earth. This type of thing should never happen.
23:49
This was premeditated and intentional, and in this case, in other cases,
23:55
we see what happened in Martinsburg just a few weeks ago troopers. One
24:00
of those troopers, both of them could have lost their lives. One of
24:03
them lost his leg and is still not out of the woods. We can't
24:07
tolerate this. In West Virginia. I think there's growing support for a limited,
24:12
very very limited use of the death penalty. Hopefully it'll never be used.
24:18
But in a nation where we're talking about defunding police and morale is so
24:22
low, and we ask our men and women in law enforcement and first response,
24:26
those are firemen, those are ems workers to go out on the front
24:30
lines of challenges. We're not sure what they're going to run into. The
24:34
violence is increased, the risk of their lives was increased. We pay them
24:38
too little. They leave their families in the morning and kiss their spouse and
24:41
their kids goodbye, not knowing if they'll come back. There's an anxiety today
24:47
not only for the individuals that do those heroic actions, but for the families,
24:52
the families that are related to these folks. I think it's important we
24:56
take these types of steps. This will be a national statement to places like
25:00
Portland in Seattle and Denver and New York City and Chicago that there are places
25:04
in America that embrace and support first responders and law enforcement. That place,
25:10
as was Virginia, And I'm hopeful this will be a siren song across the
25:14
country of our commitment to these men and women. And it's not only about
25:18
trying to make sure these things don't happen. It's also about justice. It's
25:22
not about vengeance, It's about justice. And in the case of Corey Maynard,
25:26
life is about the special moment. He'll never get that day to see
25:29
his daughter go to the prom, He'll never get that day to see the
25:33
birth of a grandchild. He'll never get that first Christmas morning again with that
25:37
excitement of a family rushing down from upstairs. And I think it's just a
25:41
crime shame and breaks my heart. What exactly other I mean, I don't
25:48
fully understand the way that this would work if the legislature, if this goes
25:51
through. You said you introduced a bill, what would it take to get
25:53
that into law other than just passing law, because it would there not be
25:56
more to it, a change state code or what. Yeah, well,
26:00
it does change the state cum yeah, I mean, and what it does
26:03
it provides in this case, and these are very clear cases. This case.
26:06
You know what we're facing right now with this defendant who ambushed and murdered
26:11
Sergeant Corey Maynard, that state trooper is. That guy's sitting right now pending
26:17
trial. He's going to be prosecuted for a murdering the first degree. I
26:19
suspect that if we have the death penalty on the books right now and he
26:23
was charged with the death penalty, he might be quick to avoid that expensive,
26:27
lengthy, passionate, emotional trial and plead it down pretty quickly to life
26:34
behind bars without possibility of parole. And so the way this will work is
26:41
it'll be an added charge. The jury will make a second determination as to
26:45
whether the death penalty applies based on the circumstances, and they're mitigating circumstances as
26:51
well. If you're seventeen years old or younger doesn't apply. Did you have
26:55
the emotional capacity to know? The gravity? The crime Committee the traditional things
27:02
you'd expect by Jerry to hear. If they make that determination, that judge
27:04
will make a separate determination as to whether it was valid, and then there's
27:08
a direct appeal to the West Virginia State Supreme Court for them to view the
27:12
factors that are involved. And so it's very simple process. It's a very
27:17
simple bill, but I think it's a very important bill. Twenty six away
27:21
from Tamaday valland showing five Adieline Bright to a department by Pinnacle Consultants. We
27:23
spend ninety percent of a time indoors, and our health risk for air pollution
27:27
can be greater indoors than out's. Pinnacle Consultants the only accredited commercial lab in
27:32
the state for as bestos in molds, a Pinnacle Court dot net. Because
27:34
what you don't know can hurt you. I have a text here for you,
27:37
says Dave. Can you have Senator Stewart about one of the most important
27:40
reform opportunities in West Virginia switching to a three hundred and sixty five day fishing
27:45
license like Ohio, Virginia, and Maryland. Right now, most West Virginians
27:49
have expired fishing licenses because they all expired January first, should be good for
27:53
three sixty five from the date of the purchase, so all anglers get their
27:56
money's worth. I love calls like this, Right, this is something that
28:02
I'm not an expert on. I love the call. It's something I'm going
28:06
to check on as soon as I get back to my office. But why
28:08
shouldn't it be three hundred and sixty five days? And so we'll take a
28:11
look. I certainly would support that type of change. It sounds like a
28:15
positive one, And I love calls like that from listeners who sometimes know a
28:21
lot more than the folks are up here and making decisions. Probably you're right,
28:25
Tex, says Dave. We need to bring back the death penalty for
28:26
anyone who would go into our schools to do mass destruction to our students and
28:30
teachers and administrators. Thanks the problem with that, and I don't disagree at
28:33
all. But the problem with that is frequently you're dealing with underaged kids,
28:37
You're dealing with fourteen, fifteen, sixteen year old kids. Well, I
28:41
don't disagree with it. I support this entirely. In fact, there are
28:44
a lot of situations i'd support the death penalty on. But I've said this,
28:47
and I think my colleagues agree. If we Christmas tree this built,
28:49
We're going to have a lot of opposition from the lefties and the crazies on
28:53
this stuff. Already, there already people lining up to take me on on
28:56
this principle of the death penalty is just bad, bad, bad. If
29:02
we Christmas tree it at this point. And what I mean by that is,
29:04
at all these other reasons we ought to use the death penalty, we'll
29:08
never get it through. It will never pass. We need to be extremely
29:11
focused and strategic about this proposal this year. This is a good standalone proposal.
29:19
But I agree, if you cause terror, if you go into our
29:23
schools and cause this mass violence, absolutely i'd support it, but I don't
29:27
think it fits within this proposal. Okay, let me get this now.
29:30
I want to talk about your campaign for Attorney General. A tech says,
29:33
people on death row frequently have unlimited appeals. How would you work through that?
29:37
No, that can be that can be dealt with in the legislation,
29:41
and in fact, in this one, I don't even deal with the method
29:45
of executing the death penalty. There are a number of ways you can do
29:49
that. I leave that to the court, but we can limit those number
29:53
of appeals. I've heard from experts from across the country. This is constitutional.
30:00
I'm a good lawyer. I went out there and did my work on
30:02
this proposal. This is not one of those where there are a lot of
30:06
questions to be asked. This is solid constitutional work, and so I'll leave
30:11
it. My bill is solid and strong. I urge people take a look
30:15
at it. All right, So let's talk about your campaign for attorney general.
30:18
First of the year is here now, and filing deadline, of course,
30:22
is coming up later this month. Looks like it's on the Republican side.
30:26
It's going to be you and mister mckeski, the current state auditor,
30:29
and he could be somebody else. You don't know who's going to fly.
30:32
We got till the end of January twenty seventh. I think you do it.
30:33
So I'm going to officially file on Monday or Tuesday. I'll make a
30:36
formal announcement about that soon. I'm excited by this race. I'll point out
30:40
to folks there's only one candidate who's running, who's been a US attorney,
30:44
who's been a member of the Trump administration, who's been a real prosecutor,
30:48
who's been a partner at major law firms, who's led drug raids, who's
30:52
been on the front lines of working with law enforcement. There's only one.
30:56
There's only one candidate in this race who's one hundred or Second Amendment. My
31:00
opponent voted four times against the Second Amendment. We're gonna talk about these issues
31:06
during the course of this campaign. I'm gonna be outspent by hundreds of thousands
31:11
of dollars. But guess what, I don't think we ought to be electing
31:14
people on the size of their wallet. We had elect folks on the basis
31:18
of what they bring to the office. I'm passionate about this. I'm gonna
31:21
work hard in this campaign. Although I'm gonna be underfunded, You're gonna see
31:26
me out there working hard. My reputation is I'm gonna work it. And
31:30
that two hundred and fifty thousand miles on my Ford F one fifty you may
31:33
have five hundred thousand on it by the end of this campaign. But I
31:37
look forward to this campaign. My opponent is a nice guy, and maybe
31:42
a good auditor, but he is not the right person to be the next
31:47
Attorney General of the state of West r Jane. To defend your rights and
31:49
your freedoms, you need somebody who's a fighter. Not everybody listening to me
31:53
right now may love where I stand on issues, but nobody listening has any
31:57
question that I'll go to bat and go to fight and do what I believe
32:01
is in the best interests of the people of West Virginea. I don't care
32:05
if you're a Democrat, Republican, independent, I'm going to fight for all
32:08
your values out there, things like vaccine freedom. I think we ought to
32:10
talk about these things, and so these are issues that will come up during
32:14
the course of this campaign. You open to debates, because I'm sure there
32:17
will be some at some point once the finally period's over. Debates, forums,
32:21
whatever you want to call them. You open to that with JV McCaskill.
32:22
Yeah, I think it's important we have these debates. In fact,
32:25
let's have as many as we can. I'm welcome. I welcome him to
32:29
come in here right now. Let's finish the rest of your show, have
32:31
a debate and carry it on to that. Personally, I got to talk
32:34
about the hunting and fishing show after you, But go ahead. But I'll
32:36
say this, We've already had one discussion. We met with the Chamber of
32:38
Commerce. We were both there, and I'll say the biggest difference between my
32:43
opponent and me. He was talking about growing infrastructure and bringing new population.
32:46
Those are all fine and well good ideas. That's not the role of the
32:50
attorney general. My job as Attorney General is to be the chief legal officer
32:54
of this state to make sure that I provide good legal counsel to all our
32:59
Asian sees, that our contracts are good and solid, and that I defend
33:02
the people of West Virginia from those legal challenges. Those crazies in Washington you
33:07
try to shut down our jobs in coal. I've been endorsed by Cole,
33:10
I've been endorsed by veterans, I've been endorsed by the auto dealers, and
33:15
we're gonna have a lot more to come. I think we need to talk
33:19
about these things. But the role of the Attorney general. Listen, I'm
33:21
not running for governor. I know my opponent wanted to be governor. I
33:25
realized he finished with only three percent in that race. But he's now running
33:30
for attorney general. We need to talk about the role of attorney general,
33:32
not a continuation of the governor's race. Right Attorney General candidate and current State
33:39
Senator Mike Stewart's always a pleasure to have you on the show Man. Thanks
33:42

37:27
Glenn Gerald now talking about the West Virginia Hunting Fishing Show this weekend at the
37:30
Colosseum of Convention Center. Glenn, good morning, how are you? Good
37:32

37:46
langlen Oh Okay, well, really, this is our thirty sixth annual event

38:15
be there. And not only hunting and fishing, but any outdoor enthusays of
38:19
any kind. There'll be something for you. If you like kayaking, if

of pain for a long time, and so he is going to be back
39:01
in the fold this weekend over there. This is his big return and you
39:06

39:09
Around one was football season because he's our football guy on Friday nights with

are concerned, we have a great program set up for the youngsters. This
40:50
year. We have a coloring contest for them. Then we're going to have
40:52
an outdoor challenge for the youngsters where they'll have the opportunity to go shoot archery,
40:57
to shoot a laser shoot that the Department Natural Resources will bring in.
41:01
They can visit the beyond the backyard, even having a little conservation quiz for
41:07
them, and we'll give them trophies and awards and so forth. So not
41:10
only is this for the one hundred and fishing guys, but the ladies and
41:14
the kids too. Bring them down. It's a family affair. And these
41:16
presentations that you have are I mean are educational. And that's one of the
41:21
things. When I attended one of these shows for the first time a couple
41:23
of years ago, I was amazed at the number of people that come in
41:27
just like just like they're in school. Man. They come in with like
41:29
a pad and paper and sit down and take notes with these presentations. Absolutely,
41:32
there'll be some great ones this year. We have one guy that's a
41:36
specialist coming in talking about deer hunting. His topic will be beating the wind.
41:42
The wind is the one big advantage that deer have over the hunters,
41:45
and so there'll be a lot of things like it. There'll be a guy
41:49
at the chef teaching us how to prepare wild Any samples there, pardon any
41:54
samples, Yes, there will be samples. So now you're talking highline.
41:58
I knew you would be there when I'm in and samples. I'll actually be
42:00
there on Sunday. We're going to be there throughout the weekend. Of course
42:04
Chris is going to be there, but several I know our sister station ninety

42:16

a great trophy that you want to display, we'll put it in a white
42:31
Tail Hall of Fame for you. That's that's a great event. That right

47:15
On the session, there was some supporter of intelligent Design saying that the bill
47:20
would allow teachers to teach about the Christian God, the Muslim God, and
47:22
the Jewish God in regards to creationism. This person obviously didn't know that the
47:27
god of those three religions is the same god. How can we let these
47:30
people who don't even know who their own gods have influence over public education.
47:35
They are going to either purposely or not make kids dumber, says a texture.
47:39
Happy spent some time on the show yesterday talking about this intelligent design thing,
47:44
and I know there is a big write up into paper about it.
47:46
I'm going to try to get into that if I have time on the show
47:50
tomorrow. But again Hoppy covered in the link yesterday. Speaking of Hoppy,
47:53
he's back at the Capital from the AARP set today. Senator Amy Nicole Grady
47:58
will be on the show Dale Lee from the Westerninian Education Association, Charleston City
48:01
Council, and a frequent guest of this show, Emmitt Pepper will be on
48:05
there talking Soldar stuff, Brad doing Brad stuff. All coming up at ten
48:08
oh six as Hoppy is live from the Capitol, Texas. Mike Stewart is
48:13
right. Elections are about ideas. It just happens that his ideas are terrible.
48:16
This dude is absolutely insufferable. His grand policy proposal is writing the coattails
48:22
of a sex abuser. It's a Texter text, says Mike Stewart. Sounds
48:25
like he's always in the virgin of tears. Well, he's a passionate guy.
48:30
Phone calls to the Day Island Show a service of Big Lee, Pigley
48:32
Wiggy, and our texting services are provided by Fruit Pharmacy, your hometown family
48:37
Pharmacy. Well is it cold enough for you? You know you love when
48:39
people say that it's a weather though, I mean, what are you gonna
48:43
do? Once I got out of my neighborhood this morning, everything was good.
48:46
Enjoy the day and half of tomorrow because the snow returns midday tomorrow,
48:51
Tomorrow night, Friday and summer Saturday, it is going to be You think
48:54
it's cold out there, now, wait, it'll come Saturday morning and throughout
48:59
the day on Saturday, but a last ryan. By next week, temperatures
49:02
are going to be in the mid fifties and possibly hitting sixty by some spots.
49:10
All right, So the mayor, we're talking about the Charles City council
49:17
meeting last night. The mayor stated of the city addressed. Jared Lewis has
49:21
a story full story posted about a WV metronews dot com. There were people
49:27
asking for the city and there had been to issue a call for a ceasefire
49:31
in the Israeli war. Now they actually and I'm not making this up,
49:37
these people showed up with tape on their mouths and asked the council to issue
49:43
a proclamation again for a ceasefire. Of course, last time they did,
49:49
it got loud, it got boisterous, because people don't know how to behave
49:52
in public. And so this time the folks showed up and they literally had
49:55
tape over their mouths. One gentleman did speak on the shoverything that I saw,
50:00
and you know, I respect everyone's right to their opinion. But again,
50:02
as I said, two weeks ago. My opinion, it is not
50:06
the role of a city government to get involved in these sorts of things.
50:12
You want to impress me as get a ceasefire on the west side. The
50:17
role is not to get involved in the national politics. Your role is city
50:21
council and mayor is to clean streets, fixed potholes, police fire protection.
50:25
That's the role of a municipal entity, nothing more and nothing less. Now,
50:31
the mayor said the overall city revenue is up about twenty five percent and
50:37
the sales tax percentage is up by about thirty percent. Of course, the
50:42
success of city events was highlighted. Now, she did touch on the Capital
50:45
Sports Complex and that they would like to start construction on that sometime within the
50:51
year. And you know, as I have said in the past and listeners
50:52
of the show, no I am I am big, big, hugely,
50:58
bigly if you will on board with this Capital Sports Complex once we see all
51:02
the details worked out. You know, sports tourism is a billion, multi
51:07
billion dollar a year industry and we've seen a lot of it already with the
51:12
Shawnee Sports Compacts, even going down to Barbersville and Valley Park and Hurricane.
51:15
Mayor City Council. It's workless and you are working, I know, get
51:19
this project done. Canon County Commission as well. The mayor also mentioned wanting
51:23
to build a new municipal auditorium again one percent behind that as well, there
51:30
was also a talk of building a new fire at EMS headquarters and improvements to
51:35
the cities eight fire stations. Again, Jarret Lewis as the complete details of
51:39
the meeting in the State of the City address posted at w metro news dot
51:45
com. Dave Alland showing five eighty live broad to you apartment by General Hardware
51:47

51:50

51:52
with General Hardware and Lumber. They have the straight quality lumber you're looking for,
51:57
with great pricing and the service you expect from a locally owned business.
52:00
General Hardware and number of Windfield checks says a newsflash to those pro HAMA supporters
52:06
crashing the meetings, this isn't New York or Chicago. That crap won't fly
52:10
here. According to a Texter, I want to give a quick as we
52:15
close the show, a big shout out and to get well to a frequent
52:17
guest on the show, mediorologist Brian Hughes from Storm Tracker thirteen. Brian is
52:21
recovering from foot surgery. He'll be back on his little scooter for a couple
52:24
of weeks. Get well soon, buddy, and by the time Friday and
52:29
Saturday rolls around again, I hope that your little scooter has snow tires because
52:32
you are going to need it. Tomorrow drop your socks day, Rob Reel
52:37

52:39
the Affiliated Construction Trades Group, Justin Williams, will be on the show tomorrow
52:44
and Brian Dayton for the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce Hobbies at the Capitol next.
