Speaker 1: come back from the from death experiences before. And you know,
3:48
Speaker 1: I'm always one of the inclined to not kind of
3:49
Speaker 1: believe in that kind of thing, but after talking with people,
3:53
Speaker 1: it's haunting and weird and make might make you reflect
3:57
Speaker 1: on the afterlife a little bit. So that's gonna be
3:59
Speaker 1: a wild conversation. Sebastian eight oh five for that. So
4:03
Speaker 1: I mentioned the woohoo, and I'm off. Got a four
4:05
Speaker 1: day week and using the vacation days. Garrett Jeff Walker
4:07
Speaker 1: covering for me on Monday. I got Dan Carroll covering
4:09
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, and I'll be back on Wednesday up until
4:12
Speaker 1: the twenty third, and Rob Ryder mister Cincinnati himself with
4:17
Speaker 1: his guitar will be here as is tradition for the
4:20
Speaker 1: Christmas radio show on the twenty third, last day of
4:24
Speaker 1: the year. For me, here we go. I really don't
4:29
Speaker 1: know where I want to start, but I've been complaining
4:31
Speaker 1: and complaining for years and years, but of late a
4:33
Speaker 1: lot more when all these fraud bilking the federal taxpayer,
4:37
Speaker 1: the fraud COVID nineteen fraud, fraud of the medicare, We've
4:40
Speaker 1: got fraud in Medicaid, We've got fraud in anything related
4:43
Speaker 1: to COVID nineteen relief. We have fraud in Minnesota. This
4:47
Speaker 1: is one that's kind of been a real bombshell. No
4:50
Speaker 1: one looking out for fraud, nobody, And it is with
4:56
Speaker 1: a great concern I saw that there are now a
4:59
Speaker 1: dozen Publican lawmakers coordinating with the Democrats about supporting the
5:06
Speaker 1: extension of the Obamacare subsidies, the ones that brought us
5:09
Speaker 1: to a shutdown, the subsidies that were set to end
5:12
Speaker 1: to the end of this year by the Democrat's own
5:14
Speaker 1: hand and owned legislation passed without any Republican support. The
5:18
Speaker 1: one we kept arguing about, the big Oh my god,
5:21
Speaker 1: we're going to see real time what the actual cost
5:24
Speaker 1: of Obamacare is, even for people making a thousand percent
5:28
Speaker 1: above poverty level still getting a tax subsidy, those are
5:31
Speaker 1: supposed to go away. Letter titled Common Ground twenty twenty five,
5:38
Speaker 1: a bipartisan health care framework talks about extending the health
5:41
Speaker 1: insurance premiums, Dear majority of fun. Here's the letter proposal
5:48
Speaker 1: can outlining an extension of health insurance premium savings for
5:51
Speaker 1: American families. Quote. It includes one year of enhanced premium
5:55
Speaker 1: tax credits with targeted modifications and a second year of
5:58
Speaker 1: continued health insurance premium savings for American families. Urges leadership
6:03
Speaker 1: of both chambers to vote on legislation reducing the cost
6:07
Speaker 1: of insurance by December eighteenth of this year. Now does
6:13
Speaker 1: anybody think that there's an idea on Capitol Hill anywhere
6:16
Speaker 1: that will reduce the actual cost of insurance by December
6:19
Speaker 1: eighteenth of this year? It urges leadership to vote on it.
6:24
Speaker 1: Maybe there is something floating around. I haven't seen it.
6:27
Speaker 1: But reducing the cost of healthcare is different and is
6:30
Speaker 1: a worthy goal, and I would like to see them
6:32
Speaker 1: be able to do that. But is different than masking
6:36
Speaker 1: the cost of this program, which is exactly what these
6:38
Speaker 1: subsidies do. People are getting ready to defecate themselves over
6:43
Speaker 1: the cost of Obamacare because the subsidies are going away
6:45
Speaker 1: for people making an excess of sixty one to five
6:48
Speaker 1: or something like that. Yeah, that's reality setting in. It's
6:51
Speaker 1: a reflection of the failure of the program. Remember that
6:54
Speaker 1: premium you're paying is well going to be paid every month,
6:57
Speaker 1: and then you still have ten thousand, five hundred dollars
6:59
Speaker 1: out of pocket line ability before you even get any
7:01
Speaker 1: insurance under it. It's a failed, stupid program. The letter
7:06
Speaker 1: proposes a two year extension of health insurance Premium Savings
7:09
Speaker 1: for savings for American families, including a year of Enhanced
7:12
Speaker 1: Premium Tax Credits eptc's, extension of the EPTC for enrollees
7:20
Speaker 1: they write earning less than ready six hundred percent of
7:23
Speaker 1: the federal poverty level, and a phase out of the
7:27
Speaker 1: EPTCS for enrollees earning between six hundred percent of the
7:31
Speaker 1: federal poverty level at one thousand percent of FBL they're
7:36
Speaker 1: getting subsidies as well, or up until the end of
7:39
Speaker 1: this year. The proposal in this letter asks for, but
7:45
Speaker 1: does not guarantee, a more guardrails to prevent fraud by
7:48
Speaker 1: implementing something called the Insurance Fraud Accountability Act. So maybe
7:54
Speaker 1: now here's the reality setting in. I've talked to Matt
8:01
Speaker 1: Boyle quite a few times from Bright Bart and the
8:02
Speaker 1: Inside Scoop. On Tuesday and they're at Washington. Beuer chief
8:07
Speaker 1: Matt Boyle. Actually I talked to him recently. So the
8:09
Speaker 1: Republicans would be surrendering mid terms if the premiums were
8:12
Speaker 1: to increase. Here's the real problem politically. Let's be frank
8:16
Speaker 1: here for a minute. He says, if they don't do
8:19
Speaker 1: it by December thirty, first, the premiums are going to
8:21
Speaker 1: go up. It's going to cause chaos. The poll numbers
8:24
Speaker 1: are going to go down. That's surrender for the midterms.
8:27
Speaker 1: The smart move for Republicans to do is take the
8:29
Speaker 1: weapons away from Democrats and push it beyond the twenty
8:31
Speaker 1: twenty eight election. Well, yeah, it's smart political maneuvering. Much
8:36
Speaker 1: in the same way. The continuing Resolution the Republicans passed
8:40
Speaker 1: which led to the shutdown, remember, maintained Biden era spending levels.
8:46
Speaker 1: That was the thorn and massy side. You guys are
8:48
Speaker 1: supposed to be whittling down the size of government, not
8:51
Speaker 1: keeping the funding levels at the same rate. What are
8:53
Speaker 1: you doing. Well, what they were doing was taking away
8:56
Speaker 1: the arguments that the Democrats had because any cut in
9:00
Speaker 1: a continuing Resolution would have caused them to pull their
9:03
Speaker 1: hair out and oh my god, they're gonna cut this.
9:05
Speaker 1: They're gonna cut that we can't vote for this. Barber
9:07
Speaker 1: murber murk.
9:08
Speaker 3: Right.
9:10
Speaker 1: They ultimately capitulated so that the tax credits are disappearing.
9:14
Speaker 1: And now the disappearance of the tax credit has landed
9:17
Speaker 1: in a Republican lapse. They have to deal with the
9:21
Speaker 1: expense or the increase in tax premiums. It's gonna cost
9:24
Speaker 1: millions of people who otherwise wouldn't have been eligible and
9:26
Speaker 1: shouldn't have been eligible for the tax credits in the
9:28
Speaker 1: first place. Do oh, I don't know, Maybe vote for
9:31
Speaker 1: the Democrats, the Democrats who will indeed promise to extend
9:35
Speaker 1: these tax credit, expand them or make them forever tax credits.
9:39
Speaker 1: What does that do? Does it fix healthcare? Does it
9:43
Speaker 1: reduce the cost of health insurance? No, it just covers
9:49
Speaker 1: that up and it puts the burden on the American taxpayer. Remember,
9:53
Speaker 1: all this money is flowing into the coffers of the
9:55
Speaker 1: insurance companies. I thought we all hated them. And then
10:03
Speaker 1: there's the fraud. Oh really, yeah, I started talking about fraud, right,
10:09
Speaker 1: that's the problem one of the problems here. So not
10:11
Speaker 1: only do you have a wrecked system where the premiums
10:13
Speaker 1: are going through the roof, people are ripping it off
10:16
Speaker 1: left and right. Government Accountability Office issued this report over
10:22
Speaker 1: the vulnerability of the Affordable Care Act exchanges, identifying significant
10:26
Speaker 1: fraud and abuse. Court to the report from the General
10:29
Speaker 1: Government Accountability Office, preliminary results note preliminary because once they
10:34
Speaker 1: dig further into this, it's going to get even worse.
10:38
Speaker 1: Preliminary results from jo's ongoing covert testing covert they were
10:41
Speaker 1: doing this on the downlow, suggests fraud risks in the
10:44
Speaker 1: advanced Premium tax credits persist the ones that they want
10:49
Speaker 1: to extend the federal marketplace to prove coverage for nearly
10:54
Speaker 1: all of the GAO's fictitious applicants in playing years twenty
11:00
Speaker 1: twenty four and twenty five, consistent with similar GAO testing
11:04
Speaker 1: in plan years Are you ready twenty fourteen through twenty sixteen.
11:09
Speaker 1: They set this up. They were testing the system years ago.
11:13
Speaker 1: What was done since then to change the program to
11:16
Speaker 1: prevent this from happening? Absolutely nothing. GORDLERPORTJO conducted undercover tests.
11:23
Speaker 1: They created fictitious applicants with fake identities and fraudulent or
11:29
Speaker 1: never used social Security numbers to see how the federal
11:32
Speaker 1: marketplace would respond. Over the past couple of years, ninety nine,
11:37
Speaker 1: zero ninety percent of the fake applicants were approved for
11:42
Speaker 1: subsidized coverage despite lacking required documentation. They submitted four of
11:53
Speaker 1: these fake applicants in twenty twenty four. They created fabricated applicants.
11:58
Speaker 1: They were approved. They got ABT twenty three hundred and
12:00
Speaker 1: fifty bucks per month in subsidies that was paid to
12:03
Speaker 1: the insurers, even though they failed to provide proof of
12:06
Speaker 1: Soci's security numbers, citizenship, or income. So GAO ramped up
12:10
Speaker 1: the test for this year. They turned it into twenty
12:13
Speaker 1: fake applicants, eighteen of them still enrolled as of September
12:16
Speaker 1: this year, generating more than ten thousand per month in subsidies.
12:21
Speaker 1: Just a little test of the system and it failed miserably.
12:28
Speaker 1: And there's more details to this, but the overall number
12:31
Speaker 1: of dollars this equates to is astronomical, and the idea
12:36
Speaker 1: that they're out there using socias security. Get a load
12:39
Speaker 1: of this one. They looked at federal marketplace data found
12:44
Speaker 1: more than twenty nine thousand SOCIS security numbers that showed
12:47
Speaker 1: over a full year of subsidized coverage. This is justin
12:50
Speaker 1: counter year twenty twenty three. Quote from the article describing
12:55
Speaker 1: what the GAO report says one number was used so
12:58
Speaker 1: many times that had totaled more than twenty six thousand
13:01
Speaker 1: days of insurance across more than one hundred and twenty
13:05
Speaker 1: five different insurance plans. That's the equivalent of seventy one
13:09
Speaker 1: years of coverage tied to one single Social Security number. Houston,
13:16
Speaker 1: we have a problem five eighteen fifty five care ce
13:21
Speaker 1: detalk sation. But let's extend those Let's keep extending those subsidies.
13:25
Speaker 1: Let's keep hiding the reality of Obamacare. You need a
13:30
Speaker 1: genuine fix to the healthcare system. And that is not it.
13:33
Speaker 1: It is the farthest thing from it. Foreign exchange. You're
13:36
Speaker 1: talking about money. Let's talk about money when it comes
13:38
Speaker 1: to foreign exchange. That's what it is all about. You
13:41
Speaker 1: will get your imported car traditionally imported anyway or testless
13:44
Speaker 1: service to your expectations, meaning it will be fixed. You
13:47
Speaker 1: will leave with a full warranty on parts and service.
13:50
Speaker 1: And the reason foreign exchange is so beloved by the
13:52
Speaker 1: Thomas household. I have saved tons of money taken my
13:55
Speaker 1: car to foreign exchange. Plus, I like everybody out there,
13:57
Speaker 1: they're really nice people. You're gonna get credit customer service.
14:00
Speaker 1: It's like family. So for me that's a real perk.
14:03
Speaker 1: But I like the full warranty. I like saving money.
14:06
Speaker 1: I've saved heap loads of money because they don't charge
14:08
Speaker 1: what the dealer charges. They charge less, and it is
14:11
Speaker 1: great autobile service. So whatever kind of car you got,
14:14
Speaker 1: especially you fellow German car owners, you know how expensive
14:17
Speaker 1: those repairs have gotten. Well, Foreign Exchange is help help
14:20
Speaker 1: the out a long way. The number at the Westchester location,
14:23
Speaker 1: which is where I go five one three, six four

17:26
Speaker 1: You can call five on three seven four nine fifty
17:28
Speaker 1: five hundred eight tentity two three talk you do. You
17:29
Speaker 1: have local stories, including Cincinni Mayor. I have to have
17:31
Speaker 1: par Ball who had his car repossessed last year. He
17:34
Speaker 1: was careless. He says, thank you. Signal ninety nine. She's
17:41
Speaker 1: out there someplace. If you have a Facebook account, Signal
17:45
Speaker 1: ninety nine. Just on top of her game on Shenanigan's
17:50
Speaker 1: going on in Cincinnati relative to the police department, among
17:52
Speaker 1: other things, and it's become a regular source of information
17:56
Speaker 1: for local news as well. Why she's pretty damn or
18:00
Speaker 1: liable anyway, don't go away and be right back. I
18:02
Speaker 1: go to first mentioned call it electric. They're doing it
18:04
Speaker 1: special right now. You know, apparently service upgrades have gone
18:08
Speaker 1: through the roof. There's some new codes that came out
18:11
Speaker 1: last year which really exponentially increased the cost of service upgrades.
18:15
Speaker 1: But yeah, you know, you need a service upgrade most
18:17
Speaker 1: notably maybe you're underpowered anyway, but if you've got an
18:20
Speaker 1: electric vehicle, and I'm not going to be critical the

19:31
Speaker 1: Five thirty fifty five k RCD talk station Happy Friday.
19:38
Speaker 1: Yeah real quick here Tom is online one moment, Tom,
19:42
Speaker 1: I had to get this in. Tell me to CPO,
19:45
Speaker 1: Tanya O'Rourke and Taylor Whider reporting we spoke to since
19:50
Speaker 1: a mayor have to have probo about the claims. He
19:52
Speaker 1: has count them to repossession orders for his vehicles in
19:56
Speaker 1: the past two count them years again, going over to
20:00
Speaker 1: Signal ninety nine, Local News citing signal ninety nine as
20:04
Speaker 1: social media post from the satire page Signal ninety nine.
20:06
Speaker 1: He has got attention after claiming Parvoll had his car
20:08
Speaker 1: repossessed in twenty twenty four, now facing another repossession Signal
20:12
Speaker 1: ninety nine, which she accurately described as a meme and
20:15
Speaker 1: parody account for first responders. My understanding is she was
20:19
Speaker 1: a former, if not current, police officer. She remains anonymous,
20:23
Speaker 1: but anyway, props to her for doing what she does.
20:25
Speaker 1: I made the mistake of thinking it was a man
20:27
Speaker 1: one time, and she actually posted a comment in response
20:30
Speaker 1: that ha haa Thomas thinks I'm a man. Anyway, She
20:33
Speaker 1: posted on social media photo of the repossession order for
20:37
Speaker 1: Parvoll's twenty twenty three Lincoln Aviator. The photo shows a
20:42
Speaker 1: data November six, twenty twenty five, but redacts some other information.
20:45
Speaker 1: The page claimed this was not the first order to
20:48
Speaker 1: repossess one of parvall vehicles, and she claimed that he
20:51
Speaker 1: has actually two repossession orders within the last couple of years.
20:55
Speaker 1: So CPO reached out to the mayor, who did confirm
20:57
Speaker 1: his car was repossessed last year due to his carelessness.
21:03
Speaker 1: He said he was not aware of an additional issue.
21:05
Speaker 1: I guess he doesn't know about the other car repossession.
21:08
Speaker 1: Maybe or maybe not, I don't know. Apparently, Signal ninety
21:11
Speaker 1: nine has a four dollars and seventeen cent Frickers card
21:15
Speaker 1: for you if you have a photograph of the most
21:17
Speaker 1: recent alleged repossession. Anyway, the mayor did say this last year.
21:22
Speaker 1: Did my carelessness, my auto pay on my car was
21:25
Speaker 1: not working and as a result, my car was repossessed.
21:27
Speaker 1: Since that time, I've been in possession of my car.
21:30
Speaker 1: I am up to date on my payments, and I'm
21:31
Speaker 1: not aware of any other pending issues. I made a
21:33
Speaker 1: mistake and I will make sure it does not happen again.
21:37
Speaker 1: So I don't know if that's a reflection of competence
21:40
Speaker 1: or incompetence. I don't know what you can draw from that,
21:42
Speaker 1: but I got a kick out of it. It'll be
21:43
Speaker 1: most notably more funny if, in fact two of his
21:47
Speaker 1: cars got repossessed and she also posted some other information
21:50
Speaker 1: about his homeowners association and is really having a problem
21:53
Speaker 1: with his wife because apparently she has quite a presence
21:56
Speaker 1: on social media and makes a lot of comments to
22:00
Speaker 1: anyone who dares say anything negative about have to have
22:03
Speaker 1: par Ball, Tom, Welcome to the morning show, my friend,
22:06
Speaker 1: and a very happy Friday to you.
22:08
Speaker 6: Well, she's certainly not going to hear anything negative on
22:11
Speaker 6: this program about the Esteems mayor of Cincinnati, is she.
22:17
Speaker 1: I don't know. I doubt that she's listening to the
22:20
Speaker 1: fifty five care Stree Morning Show, but I'm sure someone
22:23
Speaker 1: who listens, maybe his friends with her. Maybe they'll pass
22:25
Speaker 1: along a comment or two that I make it's negative
22:27
Speaker 1: to after have purvol But you know what, Tom, I'm
22:29
Speaker 1: never going to I'm never going to see her social
22:32
Speaker 1: media post ever. You know why I don't do social media,
22:35
Speaker 1: with the exception of happy Friday on Facebook and a
22:38
Speaker 1: picture of my dog or something like that. That's a
22:40
Speaker 1: social media as I get, I stay out of the.
22:42
Speaker 6: Fren listen, don't forget about, don't forget about listener lunch
22:45
Speaker 6: pictures that there you go, that one that for you?
22:49
Speaker 1: No, actually, Rebecca prem GRAPPI thank you. Jim was doing it,
22:53
Speaker 1: but he hasn't been able to make listener lunches very
22:55
Speaker 1: often lately. He was at Pricesal Chili on Wednesday. But
22:59
Speaker 1: he's got some conflicts over his health providers and other things.
23:02
Speaker 1: Or maybe he just doesn't want to showing up. I
23:04
Speaker 1: don't know, Jim, you tell me seriously now he's so yeah.
23:07
Speaker 6: I think I think right now, Jim as we speak,
23:10
Speaker 6: is putting together a go fundme page for the Mayor
23:13
Speaker 6: of Cincinnati. Maybe that's what's going on.
23:15
Speaker 1: Make his car payment.
23:17
Speaker 6: Yeah, right, help make his car payment. We don't we
23:19
Speaker 6: hate for the Mayor of Cincinnati. The default on the
23:23
Speaker 6: car loan. I mean that would just that would not
23:25
Speaker 6: be a good look for Cincinnati. You know what I'm saying.
23:27
Speaker 1: Well, he did, let's man, it's late.
23:33
Speaker 6: And yeah, and while while we're bashing people, uh, mister Schreker,
23:38
Speaker 6: while he's staring at the back of his eyelids. Sean
23:42
Speaker 6: is filling in admirably, So thank you Sean for showing
23:45
Speaker 6: up today.
23:46
Speaker 1: I appreciate it as well.
23:48
Speaker 6: Gas War's update. The two gas stations at Cincinnati Dayton
23:51
Speaker 6: Road and seventy five are at two twenty nine.
23:55
Speaker 1: Wow.
23:56
Speaker 6: As we speak, yes and and it it is, I
23:59
Speaker 6: guess us. Now they're waiting to see who's gonna blink again.
24:02
Speaker 6: I mean last time it was Speedway that but that
24:04
Speaker 6: was it blinked blunt something like that. Blank, yeah, blink. So, uh,
24:10
Speaker 6: we'll see how that goes. But the the prices north
24:13
Speaker 6: of town are at least at that exit are really good.
24:16
Speaker 6: They're yours for the taking your your your story about
24:21
Speaker 6: the uh, the fraud, waste and abuse. It's just another
24:26
Speaker 6: example of people have the mindset that as soon as
24:29
Speaker 6: government gets involved, there's a bottomless pit of money. That
24:33
Speaker 6: that is the the assumption made, and that goes into construction, uh,
24:39
Speaker 6: welfare programs, pretty much anything that the government gets involved in.
24:43
Speaker 6: Oh government, okay, we can jack the price up. Contractors
24:48
Speaker 6: charge more when they're doing a government job, and and
24:51
Speaker 6: so forth and so on, and we we have got
24:54
Speaker 6: to do something about getting getting rid of that mindset.
24:57
Speaker 6: Republicans aren't doing anything to help that either. They It
25:00
Speaker 6: may not be as bad as Democrats, but it's still
25:03
Speaker 6: I mean, there's Republicans out there that are that are
25:06
Speaker 6: spending all kinds of money, you know, dropping it like
25:09
Speaker 6: it's hot, whatever phrase you want to use, and and
25:11
Speaker 6: and and you know at some point, all this is
25:14
Speaker 6: gonna come back and bite us. It does every now
25:17
Speaker 6: and then. And so the political expediency is, let's keep
25:21
Speaker 6: kicking the can down the road so that this next
25:24
Speaker 6: election won't hurt us, and then the next election won't
25:27
Speaker 6: hurt us. And it's it's ridiculous. And you got people
25:31
Speaker 6: like like Thomas Maskiy and Rampaul that are pulling their
25:33
Speaker 6: hair out whatever's left of it, and like, guys, you don't,
25:36
Speaker 6: I mean, don't you get what's going on here? And
25:39
Speaker 6: and a lot of them probably do. They just they
25:41
Speaker 6: just want to win that next election. And so, uh,
25:44
Speaker 6: it's it's very frustrating. Uh we can sit here and
25:47
Speaker 6: talk about all we want, but until we get people
25:49
Speaker 6: in there who are willing to feel the pain politically
25:53
Speaker 6: so that we can get deal with this correctly. Uh,
25:56
Speaker 6: it's not nothing's gonna change. People are gonna keep trying
26:00
Speaker 6: kick can down the road. So and you got to
26:02
Speaker 6: really watch those people who are who are considerably wealthier
26:07
Speaker 6: after they've been in office than they were before they
26:09
Speaker 6: were in Uh. Yeah, that usually is a good sign.
26:12
Speaker 6: That's something nefarious is going on. But everybody wants to
26:15
Speaker 6: put their hand in that cookie jar. Everybody wants to
26:18
Speaker 6: taste and oh, it's just government money. There's all kinds
26:21
Speaker 6: of money. Just print more. Yeah, right, people, that's that's
26:25
Speaker 6: an insane way of doing things. And because we just
26:29
Speaker 6: keep running that get up and throwing money at it,
26:31
Speaker 6: everybody thinks it's fine or enough people think it's fine.
26:34
Speaker 1: Solutions not fine.
26:36
Speaker 6: It has to stop. We got to fix it. There's
26:38
Speaker 6: lots of solutions, but one of the solutions that we
26:41
Speaker 6: definitely have to do is make sure don't vote Democrat.
26:45
Speaker 6: Have a great weekend in time off rank.
26:47
Speaker 1: Thanks Tom, appreciate it, look forward to it hopefully here

Speaker 1: Kalua Lampour where police found what is described as a
32:59
Speaker 1: man only sex dan after a raid on a health
33:04
Speaker 1: center Okay where they found two hundred and one naked
33:10
Speaker 1: men who are alleged to have engaged in what they
33:12
Speaker 1: described in the police report as unnatural acts. They also
33:18
Speaker 1: arrested some employees there operating is a health center. And
33:23
Speaker 1: again in Kuala Lamport, Malaysia, officers reportedly monitoring what is
33:28
Speaker 1: called the Chow Kit establishment before ultimately rating the place
33:32
Speaker 1: and finding the naked guys there. Cord to the reporting,
33:35
Speaker 1: the men range in terms of their professions a teacher,
33:38
Speaker 1: a prosecutor, a surgeon, a fifty three year old doctor
33:41
Speaker 1: who told police he only came in there to, in
33:43
Speaker 1: his words, heal and avoid the after work traffic jam.
33:49
Speaker 1: That married doctor with kids said, I usually come here
33:52
Speaker 1: to avoid the traffic after work. I can relax in
33:54
Speaker 1: the sauna and jacuzzi for a while. I don't want
33:57
Speaker 1: to comment on what I did, but yes, such activities
34:01
Speaker 1: do take place here. I suppose that was a reference
34:03
Speaker 1: to the unnatural acts that the police discovered. Also, they
34:08
Speaker 1: discovered during the raid dozens of condoms and lubricant. The
34:16
Speaker 1: men aged and range age range from nineteen years old
34:19
Speaker 1: to sixty years old, with twenty four men being confirmed
34:23
Speaker 1: as foreigners. Don't know what that means, but that's according
34:27
Speaker 1: to Mothership Are, Singapore based publication, the quote unquote health
34:32
Speaker 1: center did have equipment and facilities that would be used
34:35

35:05
Speaker 1: authorities Undersection twenty nine of the Federal Territories Religious Act
35:09
Speaker 1: were engaging in indecent activities at the center. Oh, they
35:14
Speaker 1: got their own formul like Shuria law. That's where the
35:18
Speaker 1: unnatural determination was made according to section twenty nine. I
35:22
Speaker 1: guess this is an unnatural act. What is this? Use
35:25
Speaker 1: your imagination? Got another naked burglary? You guy, We get

Speaker 1: in the on West Park Street stating an unknown man
35:48
Speaker 1: in his forties had broken a window was crawling into
35:50
Speaker 1: the residence. The man described as being naked with tattoos
35:53
Speaker 1: and saying things like saving them from Hermes and the goddesses.
36:01
Speaker 1: Thank you. John Well placed. Officers respond to the scene
36:04
Speaker 1: found the suspect had already fled the residents by the
36:06
Speaker 1: time they got there with a stolen blanket. Thankfully, the
36:11
Speaker 1: adult victim and the two children were un harm suspect
36:14
Speaker 1: reportedly had been injured by the broken glass that when
36:16
Speaker 1: he broke into the residence. Canine partner Morrow Gotta Love
36:20
Speaker 1: Dogs located the suspect in a hedge of a neighboring yard.
36:25
Speaker 1: Suspect initially refused to identify himself, surrendered, placed under arrest
36:29
Speaker 1: before being transported to the Three Rivers Medical Center to
36:31
Speaker 1: deal with his wounds. Then he was taken off to
36:33
Speaker 1: jail Justine County Jail, specifically identified as Patrick Hermes. So
36:40
Speaker 1: I guess he was saving them from himself and goddesses,
36:45
Speaker 1: I think drugs were involved again, taking a Justphine County
36:49
Speaker 1: Jail charge with burglary in the first degree, theft in
36:52
Speaker 1: the third degree, harassment, and felony. Warren for pearle violation,
36:55
Speaker 1: no reference to any charges related to his naked state.
37:00
Speaker 1: Fifty six fifty five KR Seed Talk station, Maureen, if
37:02
Speaker 1: you're awaken out there? Oh yeah, I did see the report.
37:06
Speaker 1: We'll talk about Hugo Carvel Hall Barrios and what he said.
37:12
Speaker 1: He was the Venezuela in general, three star Venezuela and
37:15
Speaker 1: General Director of Military Intelligence. Mmm. And it involves, among
37:21
Speaker 1: other things, our voting system. Don't go away, be right back, Hey,
37:26
Speaker 1: six oh five fifty five cars de talk to Dation.
37:28
Speaker 1: A very happy Friday to everyone, long weekend for me.
37:31
Speaker 1: Just want to thank in advanced Garay Jeff Walker for
37:33
Speaker 1: covering for me this coming Monday and Dan Carol covering
37:36
Speaker 1: for me on Tuesday. Just using up the vacation days
37:39
Speaker 1: like Joe Strecker's doing today. Sean McMahon's at the board.
37:42
Speaker 1: So things are very well in hand, well covered to
37:44
Speaker 1: be happy to take your call if you have something
37:45
Speaker 1: to say. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, fifty five,
37:48
Speaker 1: eight hundred and eight two three talk or Time five
37:50
Speaker 1: fifty on eight and T phones, quick plug for fifty
37:52
Speaker 1: five car seed dot com and you get your rheartmedia app.
37:54
Speaker 1: That is awesome and I appreciate everyone's streaming the audio
37:57
Speaker 1: on the iHeartMedia app real quick. An extra here on
38:00
Speaker 1: Mari after purval. Yeah, he had his car repossessed last
38:04
Speaker 1: year there since the any question about that. It may
38:06
Speaker 1: have happened twice two different cars. Still waiting for the
38:08
Speaker 1: evidence on that one signal ninety nine. Again props to you.
38:11
Speaker 1: She'll probably let us all know and she will have
38:13
Speaker 1: evidence if we have a photograph of his second car
38:16
Speaker 1: being repossessed she'll actually give you a gift card worth
38:18
Speaker 1: four dollars and seventeen cents to frickers. I think anyway,
38:22
Speaker 1: nice reward anyhow, question out loud, moving aside from the
38:28
Speaker 1: fact that he did have his car repossessed for not payment,
38:31
Speaker 1: how many payments do you have to miss before they
38:33
Speaker 1: repossess your car? Isn't it a lot? I mean, it
38:37
Speaker 1: just doesn't pull over after you miss one payment and
38:39
Speaker 1: haul your car away, do they. That's got to go
38:42
Speaker 1: on for a while. Anyway, Just asking out loud for
38:46
Speaker 1: a friend, and I don't know if Moreen's listening. My
38:49
Speaker 1: favorite pattern observer formerly conspiracy theorists, and I've heard many,
38:54
Speaker 1: many people say that the smartmatic election voting system, compliments
38:59
Speaker 1: of Venezuela is rigged and it can be altered, and
39:01
Speaker 1: it is a big problem insofar as maybe elections being rigged.
39:07
Speaker 1: If you can't count, don't have any confidence in your vote,
39:11
Speaker 1: and your vote actually can be altered, then you have
39:14
Speaker 1: a massive failure in the system, and one that can
39:17
Speaker 1: lead to people, perhaps I don't know, questioning the integrity
39:21
Speaker 1: of literally everything. So does with that, I turned to
39:24
Speaker 1: this and it's been widely reported. This isn't just from
39:26
Speaker 1: some fringe media outlet. Miami Harold and Post and other
39:31
Speaker 1: sort of accepted generally accepted outlets have been reporting on
39:37
Speaker 1: this describes as an explosive development. Hugo Carva Hall Barrios,
39:42
Speaker 1: formerly a three star Venezuela in general and director of
39:46
Speaker 1: Military Intelligence, issued a confession from prison which seems to
39:53
Speaker 1: validate a lot of what Donald Trump is trying to
39:54
Speaker 1: do in Venezuela and the surrounding areas, blowing up drug votes.
39:57
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a moment. We know every route,
40:02
Speaker 1: we know every house, Trump said on Wednesday, talking about
40:05
Speaker 1: a narco terrorist, and I believe that's right. But anyway,
40:09
Speaker 1: his statement says the Venezuelan regime operates as what the
40:13
Speaker 1: General calls the Cartel of the Suns, described as a
40:17
Speaker 1: state sponsored criminal enterprise designed to weaponize drugs and other
40:21
Speaker 1: tools against America. Former Michigan Senator Patrick Colbeck characterized the
40:29
Speaker 1: general statement as turning state's evidence. He said, I absolutely
40:37
Speaker 1: support President Trump's policy towards Venezuela because it is in
40:40
Speaker 1: self defense and he is acting based on the truth
40:43
Speaker 1: the regime. I Hugo Carve Hall Barrios served is not
40:48
Speaker 1: merely hostile. It is at war with you, using drugs, gangs, espionage,
40:53
Speaker 1: and your own democratic processes as a weapon. He says,
40:57
Speaker 1: Trump's policies against maduro criminal regime are not just justified,
41:01
Speaker 1: but necessary and proportionate to the threat. Now, I will
41:04
Speaker 1: acknowledge the guy's locked up in prison on charges, okay,
41:07
Speaker 1: And he seems to admit to the charges he's been
41:09
Speaker 1: accused of. Maybe he's using this as a vehicle to
41:11
Speaker 1: try to get some leniency. I don't know, but I'm
41:13
Speaker 1: willing to acknowledge that potential exists. But here's what he
41:16
Speaker 1: has to say. Since twenty twenty one, over quarter of
41:19
Speaker 1: a million Americans have died from Ovidos's Yes ventnyl is.
41:22
Speaker 1: The reason is the result of a deliberate policy coordinated
41:26
Speaker 1: between Venezuela Cuba farc ELN and his Balla farc and
41:36
Speaker 1: ELN far left Marxist Leninist Girla groups founded in Colombia.
41:40
Speaker 1: His Balla of course, from Lebanon. She had Muslim political party,
41:44
Speaker 1: militant group as well as a social movement. Says here
41:48
Speaker 1: the most alarming, perhaps the most alarming point that this
41:52
Speaker 1: carvel hauled guy made. He directly addresses the election security,
41:58
Speaker 1: stating unequivocally that Smartmatic, the company whose technology is incorporated
42:02
Speaker 1: into Dominion ESNs and Heart inter Civic voting Systems, was
42:08
Speaker 1: created as an electoral tool for the Venezuelan regimes. All
42:13
Speaker 1: three tabular systems are used in Michigan elections and nationwide. Here,
42:19
Speaker 1: he says, quote I Carba hall I placed the head
42:24
Speaker 1: of it of the National Electoral Council in his position,
42:28
Speaker 1: and he reported directly to me the Smartmatic system can
42:32
Speaker 1: be altered. This is a fact. Now, he does not
42:36
Speaker 1: claim that every election is stolen. He doesn't even point
42:38
Speaker 1: any specific election that has been stolen. He only points
42:41
Speaker 1: to what he says is a fact that the system
42:43
Speaker 1: can be altered, presumably the software, the tabulation. He warned
42:50
Speaker 1: that the software has been used to rig elections, saying
42:53
Speaker 1: the Massouro regime operates operators maintain current relationships with American
42:58
Speaker 1: election officials as well as voting machine companies current operators
43:04
Speaker 1: with Maduro. His confession also exposes the trendy Aragua gang
43:09
Speaker 1: you've heard of them right, says it's a deliberate export
43:12
Speaker 1: of Venezuelan state violence. Says he witnessed first hand, Hamaduro
43:16
Speaker 1: exploited the open border policies to flood America with gang
43:20
Speaker 1: operators who continue operating under regime orders. The regime I
43:25
Speaker 1: served is not merely hostile, It is at war with you.
43:31
Speaker 1: Hum So obviously I mean the voting system allegations, you know,
43:39
Speaker 1: supportive of what a lot of people have been saying
43:41
Speaker 1: for a long time, which I have always pivoted over
43:43
Speaker 1: and said, well, you know what, I hear the claims
43:45
Speaker 1: that they can be rigged. But every time I talked
43:48
Speaker 1: to maybe our Secretary of State or other people reporting
43:51
Speaker 1: on this, no, no, no, they're not connected anything. They
43:53
Speaker 1: can't be modered or modified or altered. But if there's
43:57
Speaker 1: a potential, why would we use them. This is why
44:01
Speaker 1: many people like myself clamor for a paper ballot that
44:05
Speaker 1: will be and can be kept. You got that here
44:07
Speaker 1: in Ohio. They collect the ballots. It is artificial or
44:10
Speaker 1: rather artificial intelligence, or electronically tabulated, but they got the
44:14
Speaker 1: paper ballots piled high in case something goes wrong with
44:17
Speaker 1: the system. Now it seems to me you should do
44:19
Speaker 1: a statistical sampling of all of the ballots, just to
44:22
Speaker 1: make sure that aligns with the actual tabulation in the system.
44:24
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's being done, but if this
44:27
Speaker 1: guy is saying it can be manipulated, the possibility of
44:31
Speaker 1: that is enough for me to get freaked out. Recognizing
44:33
Speaker 1: full well on a tear on fraud, waste, and abuse,
44:36
Speaker 1: and government more and more gets revealed each and every day,
44:39
Speaker 1: nobody in elected capacity seems to give a crap about
44:43
Speaker 1: the potential for fraud, waste and abuse, or in this
44:45
Speaker 1: particular case, whether the election can be modified or altered.
44:48
Speaker 1: Why would you use a system that can be give me,
44:53
Speaker 1: please my elected officials those responsible assurances that this is
44:56
Speaker 1: an impossibility, And I don't know that I've ever heard
45:01
Speaker 1: that before. So Popcorn definitely out on this one. And
45:08
Speaker 1: again I will acknowledge you maybe using this for self
45:11
Speaker 1: serving benefits, but he's gonna have to back up his
45:14
Speaker 1: words with some facts. And I like to think someone
45:17
Speaker 1: is looking into this. Someone three seven eight hundred eight
45:22
Speaker 1: two three pound fight fifty on AT and T phones.
45:24
Speaker 1: Get a load of this one related to that, not
45:27
Speaker 1: at all. Now they found the alleged pipe bomber. Right,
45:31
Speaker 1: We've been looking for this guy forever, While apparently the
45:33
Speaker 1: Biden administration was not looking for him. According to Panmbondi's
45:36
Speaker 1: announcement Jesse yesterday, no new information was gathered to finally
45:40
Speaker 1: catch this guy. This is January twenty What year was that?
45:46
Speaker 1: How many five years ago? They had this video since then,
45:49
Speaker 1: and apparently if you just follow the paper trail, on
45:52
Speaker 1: the video trail, on the electronic evidence trail, you could
45:54
Speaker 1: find him, and they did. Brian Cole Junior, we still
45:58
Speaker 1: don't know much at all about this guy than he
46:00
Speaker 1: was kind of a lone or he's quiet. He kept
46:02
Speaker 1: to himself. You know, the same kind of statement you
46:04
Speaker 1: get after some crazy guy goes unleashing violence on a
46:07
Speaker 1: crowd of people. He was quiet, he kept to himself. Anyway,
46:12
Speaker 1: the joke and all this and kind of should have
46:14
Speaker 1: been in the stack is stupid. CNN's Jake Tapper. Yeah,
46:22
Speaker 1: that guy not exactly an outstanding source of credibility. So
46:29
Speaker 1: he's doing his show the lead and this information comes
46:33
Speaker 1: out and he says, quote, Brian Cole Junior, a thirty
46:39
Speaker 1: year old white man from the DC suburbs is charged
46:42
Speaker 1: with transporting and explosive device in interstate commerce and with
46:46
Speaker 1: malicious destruction by means of explosion, which is you know,
46:50
Speaker 1: unfairly innocuous statement other than the fact, why did he
46:52
Speaker 1: bring up the guy's race in the initial announcement about
46:55
Speaker 1: the capture of this guy? So if the guy was black,
46:58
Speaker 1: would he has said thirty year old black man of
47:00
Speaker 1: the DC suburbs. Well, as it turns out, the joking
47:02
Speaker 1: all of this is he is a thirty year old
47:04
Speaker 1: black man from the DC suburbs. CNN even put pictures
47:08
Speaker 1: of this guy up right after Jake Tapper said he
47:10
Speaker 1: was a white guy. Well, it is Jack Tapper six
47:22
Speaker 1: fifteen fifty five KRSA the talk stations fel for to
47:24
Speaker 1: give me a shout. I want to mention Zimmer Heating
47:26
Speaker 1: and air Conditioning sponsors of the school in business closings

Speaker 1: they also do some commercial work as well, so they're
47:51
Speaker 1: the ones to rely on here in the greater Cincinnati area.
47:54
Speaker 1: But if your system goes belly up, it's a terrible
47:56
Speaker 1: time for any time for a system to go belly up.
47:58
Speaker 1: But if you need a new HVAC system, them take advantage.
48:00
Speaker 1: Get a great one from Zimmer and the manufacturer carrier

Speaker 1: Bronson in studio for the full hour with his brand
49:17
Speaker 1: new book, Magical History Tour. That's going to be fun.
49:20
Speaker 1: Five really interesting local regional stories. He always writes about

Speaker 1: regional things and a brilliant author and writer. He is
49:27
Speaker 1: just a wonderful human being generally. So I'm going to
49:30
Speaker 1: enjoy my hour and studio and I hope you will
49:31
Speaker 1: as well. That's seven o'clock hour and a man who's
49:34
Speaker 1: experienced a post death reality in my time of dying.
49:38
Speaker 1: The empower You Seminar taking place December ninth with my
49:41
Speaker 1: eight h five guests, Sebastian Younger, who's going to give
49:43
Speaker 1: us a little insight about that empower you Seminar. Now,
49:48
Speaker 1: I presume that by now you've heard about the Minneapolis
49:50
Speaker 1: scam again, going back to fraud, waste and abuse and government. Uh,
49:54
Speaker 1: if you have the opportunity, the entire op ed piece
49:57
Speaker 1: from the editorial board at the Wall Street Journal is
49:59
Speaker 1: a good thing to read. It's the Great Entitlement State
50:02
Speaker 1: grift subheading the Giant Minnesota fraud shows the GOP reformers
50:07
Speaker 1: are right. And so they recount all of these eighty
50:10
Speaker 1: six individuals who've been charged with defrauding Medicaid and the
50:13
Speaker 1: federal child Upristian program in Minnesota, stealing lunch money from children.
50:20
Speaker 1: Even one of the defendinsone attorneys said no one was
50:22
Speaker 1: doing anything about the red flags. It was like someone
50:25
Speaker 1: was stealing money from the cookie jar and they kept
50:28
Speaker 1: refilling it. Yes, that is one of the defendant's attorneys
50:31
Speaker 1: saying that. So after the recount all of this unbelievable
50:35
Speaker 1: fraud that was going on, and everything was going on,
50:38
Speaker 1: some illustrations and details about some of the individuals, they
50:41
Speaker 1: I said, we reported, we have. The Journal reported on
50:43
Speaker 1: the Biden administration's Medicaid waivers that let states use federal
50:49
Speaker 1: funds to pay for housing, food, transportation, sports fees, and
50:52
Speaker 1: even Native American herbal remedies and exorcisms. There's your federal
50:58
Speaker 1: tax dollars at work. The Biden team wanted to give
51:00
Speaker 1: states more federal dollars to spend on social services without
51:03
Speaker 1: having Congress appropriate the money. Welcome to COVID. Nineteen trillions
51:08
Speaker 1: of dollars thrown out into this system without any oversight.
51:14
Speaker 1: Now here's where the problem runs. And I think we
51:16
Speaker 1: probably had this problem going on the state of Ohio.
51:18
Speaker 1: Medicaid spending runs on autopilot, like Medicare and Social Security.
51:21
Speaker 1: Most states get between one and nine federal dollars for
51:28
Speaker 1: every one dollar they spend on the program. Now, what
51:34
Speaker 1: do you think that's going to lead to this large
51:36
Speaker 1: federal match? Is a disincentive to police fraud? Yes, of
51:39
Speaker 1: course it is. How much more hasn't been uncovered because
51:41
Speaker 1: nobody looked, great question in how many different programs? Democrats
51:46
Speaker 1: flaying the mess in Minnesota on the rush to distribute
51:49
Speaker 1: COVID relief, they say, you know, that's doubtful. Federal and
51:52
Speaker 1: state prosecutors in New York this year have charged dozens
51:54
Speaker 1: of companies for fraudulently building medicaid, for driving beneficiaries to
51:57
Speaker 1: appointments never occurred, or for it inflate mileage of the trips.
52:01
Speaker 1: Trump's been highlighting the alleged Minnesota scammers and the fact
52:04
Speaker 1: that they're ethnic Somalis, and it is true the Journal
52:07
Speaker 1: points out that Minnesota's generous welfare state has become a
52:11
Speaker 1: magnet for Somali immigrants. But good point they're making. The
52:16
Speaker 1: main problem here isn't ethnicity or migration. Its incentives for
52:20
Speaker 1: indolence and fraud at the heart of the welfare state.
52:23
Speaker 1: All that free money with few guard rails is an
52:27
Speaker 1: invitation to theft. They point out that the GOP tax bill
52:35
Speaker 1: made modest reforms to reduce fraud, like requiring states to
52:38
Speaker 1: verify Medicaid eligibility twice a year, putting states on the
52:42
Speaker 1: hook for a share of the improper food stamp payments. Democrats,
52:45
Speaker 1: of course, opposed both of those and called them cruel
52:51
Speaker 1: efforts to faredout fraud, waste, and abuse. Describe as cruel
52:55
Speaker 1: and here's the point and props to the Journal for
52:59
Speaker 1: saying it out Loudocrats won't acknowledge fraud because they want
53:02
Speaker 1: more Americans on the dole welfare central to their political
53:07
Speaker 1: business model. Republicans who make this scandal about immigration or
53:10
Speaker 1: missing the point and missing an opportunity to educate Americans
53:14
Speaker 1: about the entitlement state grift. So I brought it up
53:19
Speaker 1: in the context of those Obamacare supplements that Republicans are
53:24
Speaker 1: now considering extending because they're fearful they might lose the
53:28
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six elections, the midterms. Because oh, they're cruel, cruel,
53:33
Speaker 1: because they're taking people getting a subsidy that make one
53:36
Speaker 1: thousand percent of the poverty level, cruel, because they're just
53:39
Speaker 1: following through with what the Democrats did and putting the
53:42
Speaker 1: expiration date of this end of December on the bill
53:45
Speaker 1: that they passed by themselves. And I understand the strategy
53:50
Speaker 1: of trying to give these keep these supplements in places
53:52
Speaker 1: I pointed out in the last hour. You know they're
53:54
Speaker 1: going to use that as a weapon against Republicans in
53:57
Speaker 1: the battle for November. That's the reason that they passed
54:02
Speaker 1: the clean cr and left it at Biden level spending.
54:05
Speaker 1: We don't want the Democrats to have an argument this
54:08
Speaker 1: is the same argument that some Republicans are making. Now
54:10
Speaker 1: let's give them the supplements for a year or two,
54:13
Speaker 1: they won't be able to say we're taking away supplements
54:16
Speaker 1: from well, what one could argue are rich people like
54:21
Speaker 1: those making one thousand percent of the so called poverty level,
54:24

55:59
Speaker 1: my friend, Happy for.
56:00
Speaker 3: Right, Happy Friday, Brian, Always good to.
56:03
Speaker 1: Be here, always good to talk to you. Let's start
56:05
Speaker 1: with this local fan. You get a local story on
56:07
Speaker 1: a Venmo scam. I don't do Venmo, so I guess
56:12
Speaker 1: I'm in a probably a good place for staying the
56:13
Speaker 1: hell away from those types of software apps.
56:18
Speaker 3: You know, Brian that's a I think that's a good
56:20
Speaker 3: place to be. I don't use for any of these
56:23
Speaker 3: things either. And I want to start out and just
56:27
Speaker 3: tell people when you use any of these sort of apps, right,
56:30
Speaker 3: especially if you don't understand the terms of service, and
56:34
Speaker 3: you know, those are usually difficult to understand, kind of
56:37
Speaker 3: it confused opoly and that sort of thing, you are
56:40
Speaker 3: putting yourself at substantial risk because in most cases you
56:44
Speaker 3: have little and or no protection whatsoever. You know, when
56:49
Speaker 3: you use a credit card, there's some consumer protections around that.
56:52
Speaker 3: That's why, you know, people that understand finance will usually
56:55
Speaker 3: tell you even though you have to be concerned about
56:58
Speaker 3: the debt component, you know, don't overspace, and it's better
57:00
Speaker 3: to shop with a credit card because you have some
57:02
Speaker 3: consumer protection versus.
57:03
Speaker 1: A debit card.
57:05
Speaker 3: With these digital payment apps, you off zero consumer protection whatsoever.
57:10
Speaker 3: And you know, many many people have lost enormous amounts
57:13
Speaker 3: of money. So my advice is always to folks, and
57:18
Speaker 3: I get you know, my kids love this stuff. I
57:20
Speaker 3: try to talk them out of using it. I had
57:23
Speaker 3: very little luck there, Brian, And I'm I'm sure you
57:25
Speaker 3: might might know when when you talk to your kids
57:28
Speaker 3: about these things. Although I know your son is fairly technical.
57:32
Speaker 1: He can handle it. Yeah, I just have to interject
57:35
Speaker 1: because she is listening, and good luck mom. Mom will
57:38
Speaker 1: be taking her first Uber ride today that she arranged
57:42
Speaker 1: for to her lunch appointment, so or she will be right. Yep,
57:46
Speaker 1: she's not nervous about the ride itself. She's not worried
57:49
Speaker 1: for her safety. But this is her very first foray
57:52
Speaker 1: into the into Uber. But that involves an app, which
57:55
Speaker 1: she of course had to put on her phone. I
57:56
Speaker 1: think my son put the app on her phone for her.
58:00
Speaker 7: Well.
58:01
Speaker 3: And you know, the thing is, Brian, if you don't
58:04
Speaker 3: understand how to configure these things. And there was some
58:06
Speaker 3: issue with NMO years ago where like every transaction you
58:10
Speaker 3: made was public by default, so if someone knew what
58:13
Speaker 3: they were looking for, you know, they could find pretty
58:15
Speaker 3: much all the money you spent. I'm not saying that's
58:18
Speaker 3: necessarily bad, but do you really want that information out there?
58:22
Speaker 3: And you know, could that be valuable to bad guys
58:24
Speaker 3: in some way to say, okay, you regularly do this thing,
58:27
Speaker 3: We're going to send you an email, carefully crafted phishing
58:31
Speaker 3: email or text that's designed to look like it came
58:34
Speaker 3: from this place that you know, interact with on a
58:37
Speaker 3: regular basis. Oh there's a problem with your account. You know,
58:41
Speaker 3: it's so important for people to remember the bad actors
58:44
Speaker 3: in almost all of these cases are really just professional
58:46
Speaker 3: con artists who are now reaching you through technology. They'll
58:50
Speaker 3: tell you any lie, they'll say whatever they have to say.
58:53
Speaker 3: You know, they'll in some cases these search you so
58:56
Speaker 3: they know what to say, they know how to say it.
58:58
Speaker 3: They'll pivot to any topic as soon as you try
59:00
Speaker 3: to start to question what they're telling you. So, you know,
59:06
Speaker 3: I understand the convenience of something like menmo, I really do. However,
59:12
Speaker 3: I just there's so much risk because people don't understand
59:15
Speaker 3: how to configure these things correctly. They don't understand what
59:18
Speaker 3: they're up against in terms of the todd artists that
59:20
Speaker 3: are out there constantly scamming people for this stuff. And again,
59:23
Speaker 3: you have little to no consumer protection. So if you
59:26
Speaker 3: somehow make a mistake and your money is gone, I
59:29
Speaker 3: can almost guarantee you when you call your bank are
59:31
Speaker 3: going to say, so let me get let me see
59:34
Speaker 3: if I understand this correctly, you authorize this transaction.
59:38
Speaker 1: Sorry, you're out of luck, period. And the story yes, yeah.
59:43
Speaker 3: It's really, you know, until this stuff gets a lot
59:45
Speaker 3: more mature, and until people are much more knowledgeable about
59:50
Speaker 3: the scams that are out there and how these things work,
59:52
Speaker 3: and or until there are more consumer protections when you
59:56
Speaker 3: use these types of payments. I would strongly encourage you
1:00:01
Speaker 3: to stay away from these things.
1:00:02
Speaker 1: Well real quick here, Yeah, stay away from them, to
1:00:07
Speaker 1: avoid the scams that can go along with them. Briefly,
1:00:10
Speaker 1: because in the interest of time, how exactly were people
1:00:12
Speaker 1: scammed on this? Uh?
1:00:15
Speaker 3: In this in this particular case, Uh, somebody's house burned down,
1:00:20
Speaker 3: and then scammers set up take profiles and sent out
1:00:24
Speaker 3: you know, hey, help this family, and you know, the
1:00:28
Speaker 3: money went somewhere else.
1:00:29
Speaker 1: Oh, using a venmo mechanism to make the donation.
1:00:35
Speaker 3: Yes, so I wanted the tips here. You know, donate
1:00:37
Speaker 3: to Venmo Charity Council, which have been em vetted and
1:00:39
Speaker 3: verified and they actually have a site that moo dot
1:00:42
Speaker 3: com slash charities. But you know, even that, if you
1:00:46
Speaker 3: don't know about that site, anyone can can create fake reviews,
1:00:50
Speaker 3: Anyone can claim to be a charity. You know, anyone
1:00:53
Speaker 3: can copy something that looks realistic. So folks just be
1:00:57
Speaker 3: careful and or you know, don't use. If you want
1:01:00
Speaker 3: to donate to a charity, go through someone like the
1:01:03
Speaker 3: Better Business Bureau to look it up and say is
1:01:05
Speaker 3: this a legitimate charity. You know, scams are everywhere, especially
1:01:09
Speaker 3: this time of year.
1:01:10
Speaker 1: Brian, especially this time of the year tech scams and
1:01:14
Speaker 1: you know, as well as just simple porch pirate scams.
1:01:17
Speaker 1: This has gone through the roof as well. I don't
1:01:18
Speaker 1: know how you avoid that, but I mean, if you
1:01:21
Speaker 1: have a videos set of system set up in your
1:01:22
Speaker 1: house like we do, you're gonna have obviously the video
1:01:25
Speaker 1: of someone stealing it off your porch, but you're going
1:01:29
Speaker 1: to be able to find them, identify them, and get
1:01:31
Speaker 1: your property back and just report it to the police.
1:01:33
Speaker 1: And that's probably in the end of that too. Can
1:01:35
Speaker 1: keep your eyes. Don't have the resources to go after
1:01:38
Speaker 1: all of it, no, of course, not if they can't
1:01:40
Speaker 1: go after people who violated the terms of their ankle monitoring.
1:01:43
Speaker 1: I doubt they're going after the guy who's the porch
1:01:45
Speaker 1: pirate for your Amazon delivery. Tech Friday's Dave Hatter is
1:01:48
Speaker 1: going to tell us to avoid again AI toys for
1:01:50
Speaker 1: your kids. That'll be next six point thirty six fifty
1:01:53
Speaker 1: five cars the detog station. I love it. USA insulation
1:01:57
Speaker 1: another product I love. I do have USA insulation home.
1:02:00
Speaker 1: I rarely mentioned that, but actually we got it real
1:02:03
Speaker 1: early on. Our home did not have any insulation between
1:02:06
Speaker 1: the bedroom walls when it was built. Build or special. Yeah,
1:02:09
Speaker 1: that goes you might want some insulation. It does provide
1:02:12
Speaker 1: great soundproofing or sound deadening effect. You will notice that
1:02:16
Speaker 1: when they insulate your home. But the reason you are
1:02:18
Speaker 1: getting the insulations for energy savings and comfort and that
1:02:22
Speaker 1: comfort that brings them that is brought about, you know,
1:02:24
Speaker 1: even distribution of the heated air for your ear heater.
1:02:27
Speaker 1: This year or any time of year with the HVAC system,
1:02:31
Speaker 1: you'll notice the home will be a lot quieter. It's
1:02:33
Speaker 1: another benefit of the USA. Another benefit of the USA
1:02:36
Speaker 1: is tremendous energy savings, savings guaranteed and oftentimes savings that
1:02:40
Speaker 1: will exceed the cost of the monthly payment, which is
1:02:44
Speaker 1: still just ninety nine dollars a month interest free. And
1:02:47
Speaker 1: it's not too late to get it done this year.
1:02:49
Speaker 1: If you get done this year the foam in the
1:02:51
Speaker 1: exterior walls of your home, you're going to be eligible
1:02:53
Speaker 1: for the twelve hundred dollars energy tax credit, so call
1:02:55
Speaker 1: them up. No obligation, you just get a free inspection
1:02:58
Speaker 1: in a free quote. You may be under insulated, you
1:03:01
Speaker 1: may have no insulation, but it's worth the call because
1:03:04
Speaker 1: if you're in either of those two places, you're going
1:03:06
Speaker 1: to get a tremendous benefit. It's been around for a
1:03:08
Speaker 1: lot of years, decades in fact, thousands and thousands of
1:03:11
Speaker 1: homes insulated and they're all happy with the great savings
1:03:14
Speaker 1: and the great comfort. Three eight one three sixty two

Speaker 1: the time it's with Dave Hatter, interest it dot COM's
1:03:33
Speaker 1: Dave Hatter. Appreciate the sponsoring segment. Appreciate the sage, wisdom
1:03:36
Speaker 1: and information and your encouragement for people to well save
1:03:40
Speaker 1: themselves and from themselves by avoiding a lot of things,
1:03:43
Speaker 1: including let us repeat for the umpteenth time, Dave Hatter says,
1:03:47
Speaker 1: don't give your kids AI toys. But now you've got
1:03:49
Speaker 1: some really high level support here, including a coalition of
1:03:53
Speaker 1: leading child development specialists which are saying the same thing,
1:03:56
Speaker 1: Dave Hatter.
1:03:57
Speaker 3: Haha, Yeah, I'm sure this is a shocker. And you know, Brian,
1:04:02
Speaker 3: I would go a step further than just the AI toys.
1:04:05
Speaker 3: Oh that's in the headlines now, and I know we've
1:04:07
Speaker 3: talked about this recently, but the whole idea of internet
1:04:11
Speaker 3: connected toys are not new, and I mean digital flash
1:04:14
Speaker 3: electronic toys have been around for a long time. You know,
1:04:17
Speaker 3: as a kid from the late seventies and early eighties,
1:04:19
Speaker 3: I can remember like Teddy Ruckspin and the Little Professor
1:04:23
Speaker 3: and all these, you know, toys that were digital. But
1:04:27
Speaker 3: obviously there was no practical Internet for the average person
1:04:30
Speaker 3: at that time, so you didn't have to worry about
1:04:33
Speaker 3: is your kid in their room talking to some stranger
1:04:35
Speaker 3: halfway across the world.
1:04:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, pul our age. Remember the g I. Joe's
1:04:39
Speaker 1: and the six million dollar Man figures. You had to
1:04:42
Speaker 1: pull a chord. You pull a cord and it had
1:04:46
Speaker 1: a recording inside it that would play. Yeah, okay, like
1:04:49
Speaker 1: to reveal my age, go ahead, Dave, I'm sorry, quite.
1:04:53
Speaker 3: The advanced tech back then, but you know when your
1:04:57
Speaker 3: kid was using one of these, like I had this thing,
1:05:00
Speaker 3: you may remember this. It looked like a little Robtons.
1:05:02
Speaker 3: I think it was called XL eight or something, and
1:05:05
Speaker 3: it played educational eight tracks where it would it had
1:05:08
Speaker 3: like four buttons and it would ask you a question
1:05:10
Speaker 3: you would pick from one of these buttons, but it
1:05:12
Speaker 3: would also play regular eight tracks. I could remember playing
1:05:14
Speaker 3: the teen Simmons solo album on it. But anyhow, yeah,
1:05:18
Speaker 3: I mean it was it was very advanced for its time,
1:05:21
Speaker 3: especially for like an educational toy. But again it couldn't
1:05:24
Speaker 3: connect to anything else. The content that you could access
1:05:27
Speaker 3: to it was limited to whatever content was on these tapes.
1:05:31
Speaker 3: And you didn't have strangers halfway across the world watching
1:05:34
Speaker 3: your kid at night through the camera and listening to
1:05:36
Speaker 3: your kids through the microphone. So you know, these IoT
1:05:42
Speaker 3: Internet of things, so called smart devices have been embedded
1:05:45
Speaker 3: in toys now for probably a good decade. There was
1:05:48
Speaker 3: a big kerfluffle over like an internet connected Barbie at
1:05:51
Speaker 3: one point, and you know, there had been numerous examples.
1:05:54
Speaker 3: If you go out and looks of all kinds of toys,
1:05:56
Speaker 3: some fairly one of the manufacturers that were Internet capable
1:06:00
Speaker 3: that have had issues. But whether it has AI in
1:06:06
Speaker 3: or not, I would just rely Folks, if you give
1:06:08
Speaker 3: your kids some kind of toy like this, a your
1:06:11
Speaker 3: ability to control what they do through it versus let's
1:06:14
Speaker 3: say a phone or a tablet or a computer is
1:06:16
Speaker 3: probably little to none. The ability to understand what they
1:06:20
Speaker 3: have done on it previously probably little to none. Do
1:06:25
Speaker 3: you know how to set it up? Do you know
1:06:26
Speaker 3: how to make sure it's getting software updates so that
1:06:29
Speaker 3: in the future, bad guys can't exploit of some sort
1:06:32
Speaker 3: of utterability that either affects your kid or potentially affects you,
1:06:36
Speaker 3: because let's say you might be working from home and
1:06:39
Speaker 3: these devices are connected to the same network, and they
1:06:42
Speaker 3: could perhaps be exploited to get to your devices. So
1:06:46
Speaker 3: that all of that stuff is not new right now,
1:06:49
Speaker 3: you're throw in the angle that some of these toys.
1:06:52
Speaker 3: You know, it might look like a Teddy bear or something.
1:06:53
Speaker 3: It's the modern version of the Teddy ruckspin, And now
1:06:57
Speaker 3: it connects to some AI chatbot or something, and your
1:06:59
Speaker 3: kid can interact with this thing, talk to it, you
1:07:02
Speaker 3: know whatever. Do you really want the conversations your kid
1:07:06
Speaker 3: is having with this thing permanently recorded? If you are
1:07:10
Speaker 3: a neighbor, do you want your kid going to the
1:07:12
Speaker 3: neighbor's house and having a conversation with the kid. Now
1:07:15
Speaker 3: your kid's conversation is recorded. The parents' conversations are recorded,
1:07:20
Speaker 3: you know, and when I see recorded, I'm not saying
1:07:23
Speaker 3: the audio necessarily, although that might be, but certainly the
1:07:26
Speaker 3: interaction is going into the LLM model somewhere. And then
1:07:30
Speaker 3: there's the whole as these consumer advocates put it out,
1:07:32
Speaker 3: issue of Okay, you know, the kids starts asking about
1:07:36
Speaker 3: things you'd rather than not ask about. Again, you're not
1:07:39
Speaker 3: going to have any visibility into this over time like
1:07:42
Speaker 3: you might if they were on a computer. Maybe, And
1:07:46
Speaker 3: you know, as researchers have seen now, many of them
1:07:48
Speaker 3: have tried to push the limits to see what these
1:07:50
Speaker 3: things would say. But you know, they talk about sex.
1:07:54
Speaker 3: In one case, I think we talked about this last week.
1:07:56
Speaker 3: The guy was purposely trying to see what it would
1:07:58
Speaker 3: tell him, and they started asking about dies. And the
1:08:00
Speaker 3: thing is telling what he the AI thinks. It's talking
1:08:04
Speaker 3: to the extended things. It's talking to a kid and
1:08:06
Speaker 3: telling them, you know where to get knives in their house.
1:08:09
Speaker 3: So you know, the idea that you're going to buy
1:08:11
Speaker 3: these things and give them to children, to me just
1:08:15
Speaker 3: seems completely insane.
1:08:18
Speaker 1: Job abuse.
1:08:19
Speaker 3: It's all of the other smart smart device, Internet of
1:08:24
Speaker 3: things risks that come along with it, and now you're
1:08:27
Speaker 3: going to add in the potential airis on top of it.
1:08:30
Speaker 3: I think it's just it's crazy. There is no chance,
1:08:33
Speaker 3: you know, I don't have kids or grandkids that would
1:08:35
Speaker 3: be in an age range where I would buy something
1:08:38
Speaker 3: like this, But there's I would not even consider it,
1:08:40
Speaker 3: and I would as again we are today. I'm trying
1:08:43
Speaker 3: to talk to people out of or at least you
1:08:46
Speaker 3: should vet something like this incredibly carefully right by it,
1:08:49
Speaker 3: but I would tell you no chance, do not buy something.
1:08:52
Speaker 1: Well, and given the knowledge you passed along all of
1:08:54
Speaker 1: it very factually based and well documented, with incident after
1:08:58
Speaker 1: incident after incident, and of perverts out there telling your
1:09:02
Speaker 1: children to cut themselves or film themselves naked or whatever,
1:09:06
Speaker 1: I would think it's it is, you know, undeniably an
1:09:09
Speaker 1: act of negligence to give your children access to one
1:09:12
Speaker 1: of these types of devices. Yeah, it's the.
1:09:17
Speaker 3: Less so called smart devices you have in your environment
1:09:21
Speaker 3: for people in any age, the better because the incentives
1:09:25
Speaker 3: to the consumer are completely backwards. These things are made
1:09:29
Speaker 3: to be easy to use, you know, the manufacturers want
1:09:32
Speaker 3: speed to market, they want market share, they want revenue.
1:09:34
Speaker 3: They're not focused on your privacy and security. And in
1:09:37
Speaker 3: many cases, you know, your privacy is being violated, at
1:09:41
Speaker 3: least in a general sense, because they want to collect
1:09:43
Speaker 3: as much data from you to monetize it because that
1:09:46
Speaker 3: helps offset the cost of the product and creates ongoing revenue,
1:09:50
Speaker 3: you know, above and beyond whatever you paid for the device.
1:09:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, collateral damage to your children, be damned. We want
1:09:56
Speaker 1: our data. We don't care about you know, perverts out there,
1:09:59
Speaker 1: getting in touch with them. Moving Dave back. Apparently Apple
1:10:02
Speaker 1: is warning its iPhone users about some well calls that
1:10:06
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be taking. So we'll bring that back next.

1:10:51
Speaker 1: Fifty five car the talk station sixt what you want
1:10:55
Speaker 1: to think about kercdtalkstation interest it dot com find Dave
1:10:59
Speaker 1: out and the crew for your is this computer need
1:11:01
Speaker 1: sponsors of this segment, we call it tech Pride with
1:11:04
Speaker 1: Dave had or Dave had Or one more conversation we
1:11:06
Speaker 1: need to have in this segment about Apple, which is
1:11:08
Speaker 1: normally a high, higher level security thing. But I just
1:11:11
Speaker 1: wish these criminals would put as much effort toward legitimate
1:11:15
Speaker 1: enterprise as they do to ripping us all off, but
1:11:17
Speaker 1: apparently ripping us off as far more lucrative. What's this
1:11:21
Speaker 1: is a pretty complicated one from my perspective there, Dave,
1:11:23
Speaker 1: so explain this to us, this targeted attack thing.
1:11:27
Speaker 8: Yeah, so Forbes recently reported on this, and they're not
1:11:31
Speaker 8: the only ones. Again, Apple has put out warnings and
1:11:34
Speaker 8: it's it's so important because this is a recurring theme.
1:11:38
Speaker 8: I mean, as far back as I can remember, these
1:11:41
Speaker 8: kind of scams have been rampant, but apparently now they're targeted.
1:11:44
Speaker 3: Towards Apple users. Saw let's read real quick from the
1:11:47
Speaker 3: Forbes article, a new alerts an issue to attackers unleas
1:11:50
Speaker 3: quote and genius Apple service hos unquote convincing users that
1:11:54
Speaker 3: account is under attacked. It came to light via Apple
1:11:57
Speaker 3: Insider and the guy who reported on it there, who
1:12:00
Speaker 3: said he quote almost lost everything for this email, entire
1:12:03
Speaker 3: digital life to the most sophisticated fishing attack he'd ever seen.
1:12:07
Speaker 3: So basically what happened is he got a text that
1:12:11
Speaker 3: appears to be from an Apple. Now I've said this
1:12:16
Speaker 3: a million times to you and anyone that will listen, Brian,
1:12:18
Speaker 3: it is incredibly simple to create a spoofed text. When
1:12:22
Speaker 3: you hear the term spoofing in this context, it means
1:12:25
Speaker 3: creating something could be an email, could be a website,
1:12:27
Speaker 3: could be a text message, could be a call from
1:12:30
Speaker 3: a phone number. It looks legitimate to the naked eye,
1:12:33
Speaker 3: but it's fake. So he gets a text that looks
1:12:36
Speaker 3: like an MSA code, Then he gets another text, and
1:12:40
Speaker 3: then he gets a phone call claiming to be from Apple.
1:12:43
Speaker 3: So these look like someone's trying to log into his account.
1:12:46
Speaker 3: So that's the first angle, right, the spoofing. Now the
1:12:49
Speaker 3: second angle, social engineering. Hey, it looks like someone might
1:12:53
Speaker 3: be trying to log into your account because you're getting
1:12:55
Speaker 3: these multi factor authentication codes you did not initiate. So
1:13:01
Speaker 3: they setting you up to say, well, yeah, I saw
1:13:04
Speaker 3: these codes. Well this is Apple Support. Looks like someone's
1:13:07
Speaker 3: trying to hack your account. We want to help you.
1:13:10
Speaker 1: Okay, well pause, pause, pause, okay, real quick. First off,
1:13:14
Speaker 1: if I got that the code that I didn't ask for,
1:13:17
Speaker 1: I got the code, which meaning the bad guys didn't
1:13:19
Speaker 1: get it, it's on my phone. I would just delete
1:13:22
Speaker 1: that and move on with my day. Second, to your point,
1:13:24
Speaker 1: you get a call from Apple, Dave, how many people
1:13:27
Speaker 1: do you think have an Apple device in the world? Ah,
1:13:33
Speaker 1: and do you think they have a support staff, whether
1:13:35
Speaker 1: it's in pun Job or Quiland, poor or anyplace else
1:13:38
Speaker 1: in the world, that can handle calling each individual Apple
1:13:42
Speaker 1: phone user to let them know that there's a problem.
1:13:46
Speaker 3: No, no, they don't.
1:13:47
Speaker 1: Are they monitoring it real time? On our behalf? Would
1:13:50
Speaker 1: they ever make a phone call.
1:13:51
Speaker 9: To you or I? Right?
1:13:54
Speaker 3: You know, Brian, you asked the question, are they monitoring
1:13:56
Speaker 3: at real time? Maybe?
1:13:57
Speaker 1: Are they?
1:13:59
Speaker 3: Absolutely not? And you know Apple has said, as has
1:14:06
Speaker 3: Google and Microsoft and others. You know so from an
1:14:10
Speaker 3: Apple press release, Apple says, don't answer suspicious calls or
1:14:14
Speaker 3: messages claiming to be from Apple. Instead contact Apples directly
1:14:18
Speaker 3: through our official support channel. Google has said the same thing.
1:14:21
Speaker 3: Microsoft has said the same thing. You know, the FBI
1:14:24
Speaker 3: will tell you the same thing. Attacked again, this is
1:14:26
Speaker 3: from the Forbes article. The FBI is very clear on
1:14:28
Speaker 3: this as well. Quote know, the legitimate companies will never
1:14:30
Speaker 3: call you and offer you text support out of the blue.
1:14:33
Speaker 3: If you get a call like this, hang up. No,
1:14:36
Speaker 3: they don't have the resources to do this. They're not
1:14:41
Speaker 3: You're not going to get a call out of the blue. Now. Again,
1:14:44
Speaker 3: this has this extra twist. It's not just a phone
1:14:47
Speaker 3: call telling you there's a problem with your computer, your
1:14:49
Speaker 3: phone or whatever. They have sent text be legitimate messages
1:14:54
Speaker 3: with security codes from Apple or Google fill in the
1:14:57
Speaker 3: blank right in this case to catch you off guard.
1:15:01
Speaker 3: So when you get that call from the continent artist
1:15:04
Speaker 3: somewhere in a third world country who wants to get
1:15:06
Speaker 3: into your Apple account, knowing that that will probably eventually
1:15:09
Speaker 3: lead to your bank account and your entire digital life.
1:15:12
Speaker 3: That that guy says, because you know, if I can
1:15:14
Speaker 3: get your Apple ID and I can take over your
1:15:16
Speaker 3: Apple account, I can lock you out of it, and
1:15:18
Speaker 3: then I essentially have unlimited time to try to get
1:15:20
Speaker 3: into all your own accounts. Now I'm in there, We'll
1:15:22
Speaker 3: send the reset code for email all that stuff, right,
1:15:25
Speaker 3: because people will. I don't think they often connect the
1:15:28
Speaker 3: dots that if I get an account like your Apple
1:15:32
Speaker 3: account or your email account, once I'm in your email
1:15:35
Speaker 3: account and lock you out, I can just go through it. Hey, look,
1:15:38
Speaker 3: you've got a password reset from Amazon, you got a
1:15:41
Speaker 3: password reset from Fifth Third Bank. I'm going to ask
1:15:44
Speaker 3: for a password reset. It's now coming to me because
1:15:46
Speaker 3: I'm in control of your email account. Once I reset
1:15:49
Speaker 3: the password on your bank account, guess what, I just
1:15:52
Speaker 3: stole all your money. So again, I don't think people
1:15:55
Speaker 3: often think far enough ahead to connect the dots of
1:15:58
Speaker 3: what it would mean to have their email compromise. In
1:16:00
Speaker 3: today's world, where everything is connected to that. It's one
1:16:03
Speaker 3: of the reasons why it's better to have more than
1:16:05
Speaker 3: one email account, so that maybe the stammy stuff, the
1:16:09
Speaker 3: less important stuff, is going to a different account than
1:16:11
Speaker 3: the really critical one so that you can protect it
1:16:14
Speaker 3: very carefully. But again they're setting you up here with
1:16:18
Speaker 3: these fake texts. I can write a program that will
1:16:20
Speaker 3: just generate fake messages like this all day long, billions
1:16:24
Speaker 3: of people day law yes.
1:16:26
Speaker 1: Hoping that day you've convinced me. I'm just praying to
1:16:30
Speaker 1: God that at least one person today got enlightenment from
1:16:33
Speaker 1: you and saves themselves from themselves and doesn't fall prey
1:16:38
Speaker 1: to these kind of crazy hoaxes because there is a
1:16:40
Speaker 1: there are a multitude of them. Thank you for bringing
1:16:42
Speaker 1: them to our attention every Friday on Tech Friday, Dave Patter,

1:18:29
Speaker 1: a second. But first, and I know we've always been impacted.
1:18:32
Speaker 1: Everybody has been impacted by at least one person in
1:18:34
Speaker 1: a life, profoundly so. And in terms of my education,
1:18:37
Speaker 1: and I've given this guy lots of props over the years.
1:18:40
Speaker 1: Chuck Berkolts, who's my government professor back in high school.
1:18:43
Speaker 1: He really motivated you to think and engage. Socratic method
1:18:47
Speaker 1: was a lot of what he used in class. He's
1:18:49
Speaker 1: one of the reasons, well less than my father, but
1:18:52
Speaker 1: one of the reasons I really took a keen interest
1:18:54
Speaker 1: in politics. And he asked me to make this announcement
1:18:56
Speaker 1: because he lives over in Cleeves. It's the Village of Cleves.

1:19:32
Speaker 1: Jock Barkolts love you man, hope you have a very
1:19:34
Speaker 1: successful event. Now over the Magical History Tour. I saw
1:19:39
Speaker 1: the synopsis on this the first time I've even seen
1:19:42
Speaker 1: the book. It's in my hand right now. Thank you
1:19:44
Speaker 1: Peter for signing my copy. This is five short stories.
1:19:48
Speaker 1: Now you've done other books, and you elaborate and you
1:19:50
Speaker 1: go on at length about some period in history, the
1:19:53
Speaker 1: early days in Ohio, northern Kentucky. Oh Man, did we
1:19:57
Speaker 1: learn a lot about the Civil War. It was amazing book.
1:20:01
Speaker 1: I loved it.
1:20:01
Speaker 10: Man who saved Cincinnati?
1:20:03
Speaker 1: This and when I call a book a bathroom book,
1:20:07
Speaker 1: I use that as a compliment because you can kind
1:20:10
Speaker 1: of pick it up. Yeah, through part of it. You're
1:20:11
Speaker 1: not making an entire novel, and you're done with that segment,
1:20:14
Speaker 1: so we can kind of call it this. Maybe the
1:20:16
Speaker 1: stories are a little longer than your traditional bathroom book,
1:20:19
Speaker 1: but five different stories. So how did you like whittle
1:20:24
Speaker 1: it down or how'd you come up with these stories?
1:20:26
Speaker 1: Because the details I have are really fascinating and kind
1:20:30
Speaker 1: of strange too, Like the first serial killer in Cincinnati?
1:20:33
Speaker 11: You know, yeah, who knew upon that one? That's kind
1:20:36
Speaker 11: of the theme or the niche I have is who knew?
1:20:39
Speaker 11: Who knew that Cincinnati was attacked by Confederates?
1:20:42
Speaker 10: Who knew?
1:20:42
Speaker 11: The first serial killer in Cincinnati was a woman and
1:20:47
Speaker 11: in nineteen thirty eight, and she probably killed more than
1:20:49
Speaker 11: a dozen people before they caught her.
1:20:51
Speaker 10: And the story of her trial is fascinating.
1:20:54
Speaker 11: One of the things that's a good highlight of how
1:20:56
Speaker 11: these stories work and how one leads to another. While
1:21:00
Speaker 11: I'm researching her, I looked at the prosecutor or handled
1:21:03
Speaker 11: her case. I thought this guy sounds kind of interesting,
1:21:06
Speaker 11: so I dive in and look at him. His name
1:21:08
Speaker 11: was Dudley out Cult. The out Cults were a long time,
1:21:11
Speaker 11: very well known group of lawyers. They were active in
1:21:15
Speaker 11: the party and the politics and as prosecutors and judges. Well,
1:21:19
Speaker 11: this guy, it turns out, flew with Eddie Rickenbacker and
1:21:23
Speaker 11: World War One. Yes, and then he was a member
1:21:26
Speaker 11: of Rickenbacker's pit crew at Indianapolis five hundred races. I mean,
1:21:31
Speaker 11: in this you just find one person in Cincinnati history
1:21:34
Speaker 11: and I'm going, wow, that could almost be another's. Yeah,
1:21:39
Speaker 11: and then I find out not only that but his father.
1:21:42
Speaker 11: One day, he dropped his father off at his office
1:21:45
Speaker 11: where he had a law office, never saw him again.
1:21:49
Speaker 11: He vanished from the streets of Cincinnati. This is a
1:21:53
Speaker 11: highly respected, well known leader of the Republican Party in
1:21:57
Speaker 11: Cincinnati who just kind of gone in an instant, And
1:22:02
Speaker 11: for months they had people that thought they saw him
1:22:05
Speaker 11: and so forth. It's just another mystery, and that's packed
1:22:08
Speaker 11: in there. But the main story there is, of course,
1:22:11
Speaker 11: the serial killer. And this is before the term serial
1:22:15
Speaker 11: killer existed, right, Yes, yes, it was never used in
1:22:19
Speaker 11: relation to her. She was known as the black Widow.
1:22:23
Speaker 11: I'm told that people who work in the Handling County
1:22:26
Speaker 11: Prosecutor's office or the police department many are familiar with
1:22:30
Speaker 11: this case because it's one that they point to as
1:22:33
Speaker 11: one of the more sensational interesting cases, and it was
1:22:36
Speaker 11: really also one of the first cases in America that
1:22:39
Speaker 11: was solved with the aid of medical forensics. Cincinnati was
1:22:44
Speaker 11: at the forefront the cutting edge of pairing up with
1:22:46
Speaker 11: the University of Cincinnati had a division there, a group
1:22:51
Speaker 11: that was interested in medical forensics and trying to solve
1:22:54
Speaker 11: cold cases and crimes using medicine, and they did in
1:22:58
Speaker 11: this case.
1:22:58
Speaker 10: It's really a fascinating story.
1:23:00
Speaker 1: Now did that develop into I know, we have medical
1:23:03
Speaker 1: forensic teams for the police now, but that was this
1:23:07
Speaker 1: case instrumental in establishing that as a regular thing. Yes,
1:23:10
Speaker 1: it was.
1:23:10
Speaker 3: It was.
1:23:11
Speaker 11: It was the first time that they really applied this
1:23:14
Speaker 11: kind of science to a murder investigation, and it was
1:23:18
Speaker 11: so successful that that continued. So Cincinnati was really paving
1:23:22
Speaker 11: the way for what we know today as CSI.
1:23:24
Speaker 1: Well, Harmonica Black would kind of suggest, I imagine what
1:23:28
Speaker 1: her modus operandi was, but what she married guys and
1:23:31
Speaker 1: then killed them, is that what this is?
1:23:32
Speaker 3: Yea?
1:23:32
Speaker 11: Or she would flirt with them, and her victims were
1:23:35
Speaker 11: almost always elderly German men, lonely widows or men who
1:23:42
Speaker 11: never married who were lonesome, and they would tell their friends, Oh,
1:23:46
Speaker 11: I got this new girlfriend.
1:23:47
Speaker 10: She's really something.
1:23:49
Speaker 11: Before you know it, they've signed over their house, their
1:23:51
Speaker 11: savings account, just so sad, and then she would go
1:23:56
Speaker 11: cook for them.
1:23:58
Speaker 10: Real is their big mistake.
1:24:00
Speaker 1: Wanh wah wah wah. Poison was big, killing people way
1:24:03
Speaker 1: in the back of the day.
1:24:04
Speaker 11: Absolutely, and you can in her case, she used arsenic,
1:24:08
Speaker 11: which is undetectable. You can't smell it, you can't taste
1:24:11
Speaker 11: it in food. And uh so what would happen is
1:24:15
Speaker 11: these guys would suddenly get terribly, terribly ill. Oh the
1:24:20
Speaker 11: worst way to die, just excruciating and horrible, and then
1:24:24
Speaker 11: she'd move on to another victim. She would have sometimes
1:24:26
Speaker 11: two victims going at once, no kidding.
1:24:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know you say that, it's almost as
1:24:32
Speaker 1: if I just you know, I'm talking to Dave had
1:24:34
Speaker 1: it with a modern scam, because that kind of stuff
1:24:36
Speaker 1: goes on today. They just use artificial intelligence and in
1:24:39
Speaker 1: computer programs and you know, dating apps to to do
1:24:42
Speaker 1: this type of thing.
1:24:43
Speaker 11: Yeah, and she would have been undetected had she not
1:24:48
Speaker 11: poisoned a man who was a shoe repairman a shoe
1:24:52
Speaker 11: salesman downtown and Cincinnati. He owned his own business, another
1:24:56
Speaker 11: elderly German man, and she got talked him into going Denver,
1:25:00
Speaker 11: Colorado with her, and on the way out on the train, she.
1:25:03
Speaker 10: Poisoned him as well.
1:25:05
Speaker 11: And the people in Denver noticed when he got off
1:25:07
Speaker 11: the train that she was taking care of him, and
1:25:09
Speaker 11: then she later claims she never knew him, so.
1:25:12
Speaker 10: They got interested. Well, I'm not going to give away more.
1:25:14
Speaker 11: No, no, no, it's really a fascinating story of the
1:25:18
Speaker 11: detective work and the trial.
1:25:20
Speaker 10: So it's a little bit of a courtroom procedural.
1:25:22
Speaker 1: Too, all right, And that would be the fourth story
1:25:25
Speaker 1: in the book, Big Tom and the Black Widow. Big
1:25:28
Speaker 1: Tom that the lawyer you're referring to.
1:25:30
Speaker 11: No, Big Tom was the detective and he was one
1:25:33
Speaker 11: of Cincinnati's most famous detectives. There's probably nobody can touch
1:25:37
Speaker 11: him for the number of cases he handled and solved.
1:25:41
Speaker 1: He was just an amazing guy. Tom Ferriger, how about that? Well,

1:27:34
Speaker 1: surface of that little diddy.
1:27:35
Speaker 11: Okay, Well, before I do that, just point out if
1:27:39

Speaker 10: special right now on free shipping. So oh free shipping,
1:27:51
Speaker 10: yeah for Christmas. So resurrection Man.
1:27:53
Speaker 11: One of the things that's fun about short stories is
1:27:56
Speaker 11: I got to explore a bunch of different styles. So
1:27:59
Speaker 11: I have a core room, procedural, I have a murder mystery.
1:28:02
Speaker 11: I have an adventure in out west on the Oregon Trail.
1:28:05
Speaker 11: I have and then this one would be described more
1:28:09
Speaker 11: like a horror story like Tales from the Crypt, literally
1:28:12
Speaker 11: tales from the Crypt, because back in the eighteen fifties
1:28:17
Speaker 11: and seventies, grave robbery was a really big problem. People
1:28:23
Speaker 11: would plunder graves and in this case, they robbed the
1:28:26
Speaker 11: grave of John Scott Harrison, who was the son of
1:28:31
Speaker 11: William Henry Harrison, our ninth president.
1:28:33
Speaker 1: Okay, so this is a huha, this is someone of significance,
1:28:36
Speaker 1: and they yes, they took was this for medical research?
1:28:40
Speaker 1: I know, to do studies. It was impossible to get kidaverage,
1:28:43
Speaker 1: so they would rob the graves and provide them to
1:28:45
Speaker 1: the medical students.
1:28:46
Speaker 9: Got it.
1:28:47
Speaker 11: And usually they would rob the graves of the what
1:28:50
Speaker 11: they called the colored cemetery, or they would go to
1:28:53
Speaker 11: the poor people's cemetery and the Potter's Field, and they
1:28:56
Speaker 11: would take those because most people were too They didn't
1:28:59
Speaker 11: have influence.
1:29:00
Speaker 10: There's significance enough to complain and make it stick, or
1:29:03
Speaker 10: in the.
1:29:03
Speaker 1: Case of potters Field, no money, but also maybe no
1:29:05
Speaker 1: living or available relatives to even make a claim over
1:29:08
Speaker 1: the body. So no wrinkles that are going to follow up.
1:29:10
Speaker 10: Yeah, so they would actually rob these bodies.
1:29:13
Speaker 11: In this case, this was not only the son of
1:29:15
Speaker 11: a president, but he was the father of another president,
1:29:18
Speaker 11: Benjamin Harrison. So he is the son and the father
1:29:21
Speaker 11: of US presidents. And they robbed his grave on the
1:29:24
Speaker 11: very night he was buried.
1:29:26
Speaker 1: Well, didn't you have to get him close in time
1:29:28
Speaker 1: to death otherwise you're just bringing in a rotting exact.
1:29:32
Speaker 11: You're right, they tried to get him fresh, as they
1:29:35
Speaker 11: would put it in this case. You know, a little
1:29:38
Speaker 11: side note of this was it answered a question I've
1:29:40
Speaker 11: often had when I went through cemeteries or drove by
1:29:43
Speaker 11: him about those little mausoleums that looked like little banks.
1:29:47
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, you had the bars on the windows and everything.
1:29:50
Speaker 10: Well that was because a grave robbery.
1:29:52
Speaker 11: Oh wow, you know, so you would you would fortify
1:29:55
Speaker 11: when you put somebody to rest, you would try as
1:29:59
Speaker 11: much as to your ability to fortify that and make
1:30:01
Speaker 11: it impossible to steal the corpse. In this case, they
1:30:05
Speaker 11: hired the Pinkerton Agency out of Chicago to try and
1:30:09
Speaker 11: find out what happened to John Scott Harrison, and they
1:30:13
Speaker 11: traced it to a report that came in in the
1:30:16
Speaker 11: newspaper that that very night, around three am, a wagon
1:30:21
Speaker 11: pulled up in front of the Ohio Medical School and
1:30:25
Speaker 11: unloaded a long sheet wrapped object. So, the son of
1:30:31
Speaker 11: John Scott Harrison goes to the Ohio Medical School. They
1:30:36
Speaker 11: finally find his body and it's hanging in this shaft
1:30:41
Speaker 11: with a winch where they would bring it up from
1:30:43
Speaker 11: the ground floor seven stories up, and it's hanging there
1:30:46
Speaker 11: on a rope hidden in the shaft.
1:30:48
Speaker 1: Well, okay, he'll be out of this. They did that
1:30:52
Speaker 1: and hung him in a shaft for the purpose of
1:30:54
Speaker 1: hiding the presence of the body. Yes, there's no other
1:30:57
Speaker 1: reason for the seven storage.
1:31:00
Speaker 11: So when you go up these stories in the Ohio
1:31:02
Speaker 11: Medical College, which is would have been right about next
1:31:05
Speaker 11: to the Cincinnatian Hotel is today and in fact, well anyway,
1:31:11
Speaker 11: I don't want to get distracted here. But okay, so
1:31:13
Speaker 11: they find this body hanging in the shaft and his
1:31:16
Speaker 11: own son discovered it, and it was so grizzly. He
1:31:19
Speaker 11: had been stripped of his clothes, he had been bled out,
1:31:22
Speaker 11: so they had cut his neck and so forth, and
1:31:27
Speaker 11: just hanging there. And when they get up to the
1:31:28
Speaker 11: seventh floor, I mean, the scene was just appalling because
1:31:32
Speaker 11: they would keep thats of these body parts around and
1:31:36
Speaker 11: corpses much longer then really was hygienic or safe. And
1:31:42
Speaker 11: the stench, oh my gosh, it would it would knock
1:31:46
Speaker 11: you right over. And they described that when they when
1:31:50
Speaker 11: they got up there to find the body, and those
1:31:52
Speaker 11: are the conditions.
1:31:53
Speaker 9: That the.
1:31:55
Speaker 1: Decompositioning doctors and doctors would work in or surrounded that stension.
1:32:00
Speaker 10: Uh horrible.
1:32:02
Speaker 11: Oh, they had lost any kind of respect for the dead, right,
1:32:07
Speaker 11: They just abused these corpses and just treated them horribly.
1:32:11
Speaker 10: And that was exposed.
1:32:12
Speaker 11: And you know, during these periods in the eighteen hundreds,
1:32:15
Speaker 11: they were not unusual to see riots in big cities
1:32:19
Speaker 11: when people would find out that their loved one was
1:32:21
Speaker 11: in the medical college without permission. And it happened in
1:32:25
Speaker 11: New York City where a man was walking down the
1:32:27
Speaker 11: street and they were actually doing a dissection in the
1:32:29
Speaker 11: window of the medical college there, and it was his
1:32:32
Speaker 11: wife who had just died. Oh my lord, and he
1:32:35
Speaker 11: found that and they had a riot and they burned
1:32:37
Speaker 11: that medical college. So this was this was outrageous and
1:32:41
Speaker 11: it was a huge scandal in Cincinnati. But it's also
1:32:44
Speaker 11: a story of this vast network of grave robbery that
1:32:49
Speaker 11: was going on in Cincinnati, and they were supplying bodies
1:32:52
Speaker 11: all over Ohio, but also up in Michigan to ann Arbor.
1:32:56
Speaker 11: The University of Michigan was getting its corpses for their
1:32:58
Speaker 11: medical school from Sinati.
1:33:00
Speaker 1: So it was a regional organized crime unit designed to
1:33:03
Speaker 1: get medical students dead bodies exactly.
1:33:05
Speaker 11: And not only that, the grave robbers would also strip
1:33:08
Speaker 11: the bodies, and this is really kind of icky. They
1:33:11
Speaker 11: would sell the clothes, so if you went to go
1:33:15
Speaker 11: buy bargain clothes, you might be walking around in something
1:33:19
Speaker 11: that was only hours before worn by a corpse.
1:33:23
Speaker 1: I read all about it the name of the book
1:33:25
Speaker 1: Magical History Tour. We got more with Peter Bronson in
1:33:28
Speaker 1: a studio be right back after I mentioned calling an
1:33:31
Speaker 1: elector twenty five percent off right now, you know, And
1:33:33
Speaker 1: This disturbs me because it's out of Cullen's hands. But
1:33:36
Speaker 1: apparently someone had the genius of changing the codes for
1:33:39
Speaker 1: service upgrades last year in the Spring, which, as Andrew
1:33:44
Speaker 1: Collins says, exponentially drove up the cost of service upgrade.
1:33:47
Speaker 1: So if you got yourself an EV, you're gonna need
1:33:49
Speaker 1: a service upgrade, get that charger in your garage, or
1:33:52
Speaker 1: whatever reason you might need a service upgrade. There are
1:33:54
Speaker 1: other reasons, but you get a twenty five percent this
1:33:57
Speaker 1: kind of if you act this month the sales over
1:33:59
Speaker 1: at the end of the my twenty five percent discount
1:34:02
Speaker 1: on the new service for your home, twenty five off

Speaker 1: the total job cost, which can save you I guess
1:34:07
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars. Call the power up your Holidays sale,
1:34:11
Speaker 1: so great savings on. That discount is applicable to above
1:34:13
Speaker 1: or below ground residential single family service of four hundred
1:34:17
Speaker 1: amps or less, and it extends to breaker panel and
1:34:19
Speaker 1: main service upgrades only. And of course you get that
1:34:22
Speaker 1: famous ten year Cullen wiring warranty for any I mean
1:34:25
Speaker 1: any electric project. You're going to get that from the
1:34:27
Speaker 1: good friends at Colin. Customer service is great and the
1:34:29

1:35:20
Speaker 1: the end of this discussion. But let's talk about a
1:35:23
Speaker 1: sneak in the garden. Peter, Oh, that was a lot
1:35:25
Speaker 1: of fun too. So a long time ago I visited
1:35:28
Speaker 1: because I was working at the Inquiry at the time,
1:35:31
Speaker 1: I think, And I visited the Whitewater Shaker village because
1:35:35
Speaker 1: they were just then beginning the restoration of it, and
1:35:38
Speaker 1: it was fascinating to see how these people lived. For example,
1:35:43
Speaker 1: when you go to their cemetery, which is right down
1:35:46
Speaker 1: the road from the village where they lived. The Shakers,
1:35:49
Speaker 1: they had the cemetery and it's probably I don't know,
1:35:52
Speaker 1: three acres two acres. It's a pretty big cemetery, but
1:35:54
Speaker 1: there's only a dozen graves there, and.
1:35:57
Speaker 11: You're like, what is going on here? Well, they believed
1:36:00
Speaker 11: in celibacy, and they really didn't.
1:36:03
Speaker 1: Think ahead that you don't populate a cemetery if you
1:36:07
Speaker 1: don't populate the children in the you know, in the village.
1:36:11
Speaker 1: I was Communists believe in celibacy. O, Hey, this is
1:36:15
Speaker 1: this is an amazing thing. Funny.
1:36:17
Speaker 11: You should bring that up because in the middle of
1:36:19
Speaker 11: this cemetery it says the Whitewater Shaker Cemetery is dedicated
1:36:23
Speaker 11: to a community of celibate Christian Communists in no way, yes.
1:36:28
Speaker 1: And this was put up in nineteen I had the
1:36:30
Speaker 1: god folks, I did not know that you really said that.
1:36:34
Speaker 1: Oh you nailed it back then. See what happens.
1:36:37
Speaker 11: Yeah, communism kind of meant something else then, because Marx
1:36:41
Speaker 11: and Engels were just kind of contract.
1:36:45
Speaker 10: This was a communal living.
1:36:46
Speaker 11: Like they thought that there would be utopias if everybody
1:36:49
Speaker 11: shared everything. So in the Shaker village they really practiced
1:36:52
Speaker 11: that along with celibacy. So here's a funny little thing.
1:36:57
Speaker 11: In their dormitory. They had the women's sleeping arrangements at
1:37:02
Speaker 11: the west end or the east end, and the men
1:37:05
Speaker 11: at the west end, and just a hallway between them. Well,
1:37:09
Speaker 11: you know, you'd think for the trials of celibacy, you'd
1:37:11
Speaker 11: at least put them on separate floors, But no.
1:37:14
Speaker 1: It sounds like it invites a panty raid. You're gonna
1:37:17
Speaker 1: go raid the women's storm tonight.
1:37:19
Speaker 11: Well, it's interesting that one of the rooms in the
1:37:21
Speaker 11: women's Storm had locks on both sides of the door.
1:37:24
Speaker 1: Oh all right, yeah, they anticipated that might happen.
1:37:27
Speaker 11: And there's also a story I found that they used
1:37:30
Speaker 11: to spread flower on the floor in the hallway, so
1:37:34
Speaker 11: if anybody walked from one dorm to the other, they
1:37:38
Speaker 11: would leave tracks, and the next morning you'd see which
1:37:42
Speaker 11: they went to, Well.
1:37:43
Speaker 1: No wonder, they aren't around anymore. Not only you had
1:37:45
Speaker 1: the whole celibacy they're working against them. That's not exactly
1:37:48
Speaker 1: a marketing scheme that's going to, you know, bring in
1:37:50
Speaker 1: the fellow travelers as it were.
1:37:52
Speaker 11: No, but if you take a look at the Shakers,
1:37:55
Speaker 11: they were really in a lot of ways during that
1:37:57
Speaker 11: period and especially around the Civil War, they were this
1:38:00
Speaker 11: the only safety net or social safety net we had
1:38:02
Speaker 11: because there was no homes for widows and orphans, there
1:38:06
Speaker 11: were no places that no social security. But the Shakers
1:38:10
Speaker 11: for widows and orphans and women who had gotten in
1:38:14
Speaker 11: trouble or what we'd called today back then they would.
1:38:17
Speaker 1: Call l violated the celibacy rule.
1:38:20
Speaker 11: Yeah, so they would be taken in by the Shakers.
1:38:23
Speaker 11: So whole families were taken in. And there's another fascinating
1:38:29
Speaker 11: story about the Millerites, which is a diversion, but it's
1:38:32
Speaker 11: in the book. And this was a cult in the
1:38:35
Speaker 11: eighteen hundreds that followed a man named Miller who believed
1:38:39
Speaker 11: that he knew the exact day and date of Christ's return,
1:38:43
Speaker 11: and they sold all of their property, gave away everything,
1:38:48
Speaker 11: their farms, their clothes, everything, and they all went out
1:38:50
Speaker 11: to a hill, and this happened in Cincinnati.
1:38:53
Speaker 1: They all went out to a hill and waited for
1:38:54
Speaker 1: the second coming, and waited and waited, and nothing happened. Really,
1:39:00
Speaker 1: and so I would have read about it if they had. Yeah,
1:39:03
Speaker 1: so now they are destitute and homeless.
1:39:06
Speaker 10: So where did they go?
1:39:08
Speaker 1: They tried the Shaker village suckers. So what's the snake
1:39:14
Speaker 1: in the garden part? Well, I don't want you to
1:39:16
Speaker 1: be too revealing. No, obviously came up with this chapter
1:39:19
Speaker 1: title for a reason.
1:39:20
Speaker 11: Yes, there's a fascinating mystery about two women who were
1:39:25
Speaker 11: banished from the Shaker village because of failure to observe
1:39:29
Speaker 11: the celibacy rule.
1:39:31
Speaker 1: And they had two together.
1:39:33
Speaker 11: The two women, it was a mother and daughter both
1:39:37
Speaker 11: In all the news stories and so forth, the accounts
1:39:40
Speaker 11: at the time remarked that they were both strikingly beautiful,
1:39:44
Speaker 11: and they had come to Cincinnati after they were banished
1:39:48
Speaker 11: from Whitewater Village. And after about a week they were
1:39:52
Speaker 11: found dead in a hotel room in downtown Cincinnati. Uh huh,
1:39:56
Speaker 11: So the mystery around that is, Okay, what happened?
1:39:59
Speaker 3: Wow?
1:40:00
Speaker 10: Well, there was a man who was taken in.
1:40:03
Speaker 11: By the Shaker village, who was a drunk, a total
1:40:07
Speaker 11: wast stroll, a scoundrel. But he came from a very
1:40:10
Speaker 11: wealthy Cincinnata family. And there's your snake in the garden.
1:40:15
Speaker 1: All about that, I was gonna charge you try to
1:40:17
Speaker 1: draw a Bernie Sanders parallel, because apparently he lived in
1:40:20
Speaker 1: an ashram or a commune, and he was the lazy
1:40:22
Speaker 1: guy that never did anything. They kicked him out.
1:40:24
Speaker 10: Well, that he describes this guy too.
1:40:26
Speaker 1: He preaches the gospel of this communal lifestyle, but then
1:40:30
Speaker 1: like all communes, it all fails because no one wants
1:40:32
Speaker 1: to step up to the plate and pull their weight, and.
1:40:34
Speaker 11: There's always communism, and there's always some leech that's just parasite,
1:40:38
Speaker 11: that's just riding along. Bernie Sanders, Yeah, well that describes
1:40:42
Speaker 11: this guy too, except I don't think we could give
1:40:45
Speaker 11: him credit for murdering anybody, at least not that I
1:40:48
Speaker 11: know about. More with Peter Burnston, I like scratching the
1:40:51
Speaker 11: surface of this because this obviously if heeds the curiosity element,
1:40:55
Speaker 11: which will get books sold, but it's well worth the
1:40:58
Speaker 11: small amount of money going to pay get Peter's book
1:41:00
Speaker 11: and begin the excellent Christmas gift seven thirty five. Right now,
1:41:05
Speaker 11: we'll be right back more with Peter Bronch.
1:41:06
Speaker 1: And after I mention QC Kinetics as, if you're living
1:41:08
Speaker 1: with pain, you might not have to live with pain anymore.
1:41:10
Speaker 1: How about curing the source of the pain. I think
1:41:13
Speaker 1: arthritis pain, but it could be other kind of pain.
1:41:15
Speaker 1: QC Kinetics does that, and thousands of patients have experienced
1:41:20
Speaker 1: the relief brought about by their own body's natural regenitive power. Yes,
1:41:24
Speaker 1: they extract from your body ultimately boil down to platelet
1:41:29
Speaker 1: rich plasma and through a different series of these injections,
1:41:34
Speaker 1: it helps your body heal itself, not cover up the pain,
1:41:37
Speaker 1: but actually heal it, repairing the damaged tissue, reducing information,
1:41:42
Speaker 1: and of course relieving the pain right at its source.
1:41:45
Speaker 1: It isn't science fiction. It's your body's comeback story, powered
1:41:48
Speaker 1: by the various souls that built you in the first place.
1:41:51
Speaker 1: Now will this work for you? I don't know. QC
1:41:54
Speaker 1: Kinetics will be happy to sit down with you for free,
1:41:56
Speaker 1: and so I said it's free. Take the time to
1:41:58
Speaker 1: give them a call and schedule the aploy, Because if
1:42:00
Speaker 1: you're living with this kind of pain, you know, like
1:42:02
Speaker 1: you get out of bed in the morning and it
1:42:03
Speaker 1: begins with pain and you can't do things because it's pain.
1:42:06
Speaker 1: Don't have to go down that road anymore. Maybe talk
1:42:08
Speaker 1: to him and find out if it's right for you.
1:42:10
Speaker 1: So five one three eight four seven zero zero one

1:42:46
Speaker 1: it has been a riot talking about the various stories,
1:42:49
Speaker 1: five different stories, all based upon local folks or local connections.
1:42:55
Speaker 3: Uh.
1:42:55
Speaker 1: And then we find out that some of them extend
1:42:57
Speaker 1: out west. You had mentioned that earlier when we were
1:42:59
Speaker 1: talking about which which chapter is that one?
1:43:02
Speaker 10: That's the one.
1:43:04
Speaker 1: It's called Rifles at forty paced.
1:43:06
Speaker 10: Rifles at forty paces. Good, thank you.
1:43:09
Speaker 11: Yeah, that's the story of a man from Wilmington, Ohio
1:43:12
Speaker 11: who hopped on the Oregon Trail, which was an incredible
1:43:17
Speaker 11: life threatening adventure in itself period Indians, disease, deserts parched, starving,
1:43:27
Speaker 11: everything you can think of.
1:43:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm sure it was so comfortable right in
1:43:32
Speaker 1: a kind of stoga wagon.
1:43:33
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah.
1:43:36
Speaker 11: And he led the wagon train to northern California for
1:43:40
Speaker 11: the gold Rush in eighteen fifty. So he went out
1:43:43
Speaker 11: for the gold Rush. He fought an amazing duel against
1:43:46
Speaker 11: a newspaper editor, which kind of I thought that was
1:43:49
Speaker 11: a special a former editor myself. And this editor just
1:43:53
Speaker 11: didn't know when to quit. He kept insulting this guy
1:43:56
Speaker 11: in his editorials, and he just kept doing it and
1:43:58
Speaker 11: doing it. It's a political thing, and so this guy
1:44:04
Speaker 11: becomes such a heroic figure that he actually the city
1:44:10
Speaker 11: of Denver, Colorado, is named after him, and he named
1:44:15
Speaker 11: the state of Montana.
1:44:17
Speaker 1: Really.
1:44:17
Speaker 11: Yes, he was governor of the Kansas Territory in the
1:44:20
Speaker 11: eighteen late eighteen fifties, during the time they call Bleeding
1:44:24
Speaker 11: Kansas now as a run up to the Civil War.
1:44:27
Speaker 11: Bleeding Kansas was like a dress rehearsal. It was all
1:44:31
Speaker 11: about abolition.
1:44:32
Speaker 1: Oh, old brother, I never heard that term.
1:44:36
Speaker 11: Unbelievable, terrible, terrible violence. Okay, here's the Outlaw Josie Wales
1:44:41
Speaker 11: the movie.
1:44:41
Speaker 1: Yes, I've seen that.
1:44:42
Speaker 11: That is about this period, and Josie Wales was in
1:44:46
Speaker 11: the Battle of Bleeding Kansas that went on for years.
1:44:49
Speaker 11: So if we look at Bleeding Kansas and we draw
1:44:52
Speaker 11: some parallels. I didn't necessarily do this in the story,
1:44:54
Speaker 11: but if you wanted to, you can draw parallels to
1:44:57
Speaker 11: see what's going on in our country today. You might say, well, Portland,
1:45:01
Speaker 11: Oregon kind of looks like what Bleeding Kansas looked like.
1:45:05
Speaker 11: People were burning each other's farms, they were raiding, they
1:45:08
Speaker 11: were killing each other. They were just completely out of
1:45:11
Speaker 11: control all over the issue of slavery, because Kansas was
1:45:14
Speaker 11: going to be a new state, and the abolitionists wanted
1:45:17
Speaker 11: it to be a free state, of course, and the
1:45:20
Speaker 11: people from Missouri who had already gotten statehood and wanted
1:45:24
Speaker 11: it to be a slave state like them. So the
1:45:27
Speaker 11: Missourians came up and they fought the abolitionists, and most
1:45:30
Speaker 11: of the abolitionists were from northeastern states. And one of
1:45:34
Speaker 11: those abolitionists was a man everybody knows about, John Brown,
1:45:38
Speaker 11: oh sure. And he was a cold blooded psychopath. He
1:45:44
Speaker 11: was unbelievable. He committed massacres and murders like you wouldn't believe,
1:45:49
Speaker 11: and people glorified and made him a hero, not unlike
1:45:53
Speaker 11: what we've done in our own culture today, with people
1:45:56
Speaker 11: who are really in many ways despicable, live horrible life,
1:46:00
Speaker 11: and yet because the way they die and the politics
1:46:03
Speaker 11: around it, we lift them up as some kind of
1:46:05
Speaker 11: mythical hero.
1:46:07
Speaker 10: And that's what happened with John Brown.
1:46:09
Speaker 1: No kidding. Yeah, you know, I guess on some level
1:46:14
Speaker 1: I can understand. But you know, the idea of murdering
1:46:17
Speaker 1: your neighbors over it is a human rights, of course issue,
1:46:21
Speaker 1: a profound one, and I you know, understanding and embracing humanity,
1:46:25
Speaker 1: but that you would go out and murder someone over this,
1:46:28
Speaker 1: I don't know, set farms on fire.
1:46:30
Speaker 11: It's just well, and you know, we kind of tend
1:46:33
Speaker 11: to look back and people like this version of history
1:46:35
Speaker 11: that's popular and in schools and colleges. Now, which is
1:46:39
Speaker 11: that you know, abolitions are good guys, Confederates bad guys,
1:46:43
Speaker 11: and this and that.
1:46:44
Speaker 10: You know, it's all very black and white. No, it wasn't.
1:46:48
Speaker 11: Some of the abolitionists were the scariest, most brutal people, terrorists,
1:46:54
Speaker 11: They were psychopaths.
1:46:56
Speaker 1: Well, okay, let me pose this to you. Fine, they
1:47:00
Speaker 1: leave and abolishing slavery. There's a multitude of reasons why
1:47:02
Speaker 1: someone might embrace that. Would someone, let's say John Brown,
1:47:07
Speaker 1: embrace that as a philosophy and as a primary motivating
1:47:13
Speaker 1: force and factor in their life for the purpose of
1:47:15
Speaker 1: an excuse to commit violence, that he's a psychopath?
1:47:20
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think he was.
1:47:21
Speaker 1: Like I believe you out there in the world, somebody
1:47:23
Speaker 1: decided to go through maybe being becoming a priest because
1:47:26
Speaker 1: they could be around little children. If somebody wants to
1:47:29
Speaker 1: be a teacher because they can be around little children.
1:47:31
Speaker 1: It isn't because they're really truly motivated by the you know,
1:47:34
Speaker 1: the Christian doctrine, or because they're motivated to be educators.
1:47:39
Speaker 1: They want to access the kids. Absolutely, So if they
1:47:42
Speaker 1: want to kill, if this guy wants to has passion
1:47:44
Speaker 1: for killing people, I'm an anti slavery guy, I'm an abolitionist. Okay,
1:47:47
Speaker 1: go ahead and.
1:47:47
Speaker 11: Do it well in this story. The hero of this
1:47:50
Speaker 11: story is James W. Denver from Wilmington, Ohio. City of
1:47:54
Speaker 11: Denver's named after him. His archrival enemy is a guy
1:47:57
Speaker 11: who was exactly what you described became. He kind of
1:48:01
Speaker 11: played both sides, but mainly he was just a bloodthirsty raider.
1:48:05
Speaker 11: He would raid and burn farms so that he could
1:48:07
Speaker 11: take him for his own property and add him to
1:48:08
Speaker 11: his political power. Oh, like the Crusades, yes, and so,
1:48:12
Speaker 11: but there were other people. I think John Brown was
1:48:15
Speaker 11: just nuts. I think he was crazy. He went around
1:48:18
Speaker 11: killing people.
1:48:19
Speaker 10: In the name of God.
1:48:21
Speaker 1: That is just part they struggle with.
1:48:23
Speaker 10: That is nuts.
1:48:24
Speaker 11: And they thought that God was on their side, so
1:48:27
Speaker 11: they could do anything they please. And both sides were unbelievably.
1:48:31
Speaker 10: Cruel and brutal.
1:48:32
Speaker 1: So it was kind of like the Crusades.
1:48:33
Speaker 11: Yeah, Bleeding Kansas was an unbelievable chapter in our history.
1:48:37
Speaker 11: And it's all like this mini little set piece dress
1:48:42
Speaker 11: rehearsal for the Civil War.
1:48:44
Speaker 1: We'll get back with Peter Bronson. This is great, plus

1:51:49
Speaker 1: History Tour, Murder mystery and buried history, you know before
1:51:52
Speaker 1: rather than maybe go back into one more of the
1:51:55
Speaker 1: snippets about these various stories in here, just elaborating on it.
1:51:59
Speaker 1: You and I were talking going off the break because
1:52:00
Speaker 1: you lose sight when you're talking about the wild West,
1:52:03
Speaker 1: and you mentioned that, you know, the duels. That was
1:52:06
Speaker 1: all mic on. Is this Mike On?
1:52:11
Speaker 3: It is?
1:52:12
Speaker 1: Okay, there you go, all right, I didn't hear it
1:52:14
Speaker 1: just the second ago. Yeah, so it was very common.
1:52:16
Speaker 1: But the background on that is there wasn't law enforcement.
1:52:19
Speaker 1: You know, they weren't sheriffs necessarily around, and if they were,
1:52:22
Speaker 1: they weren't going to stop a duel from happening.
1:52:24
Speaker 11: And this actually came from Europe. There was something called
1:52:27
Speaker 11: the Irish Code Duello and that was a lengthy thing.
1:52:31
Speaker 11: It's like thirty different rules and regulations to set up
1:52:34
Speaker 11: a duel, all about the the courtesy and manners that
1:52:38
Speaker 11: surround how you established it.
1:52:40
Speaker 1: Do how you murder someone again, you'd properly do it
1:52:42
Speaker 1: like the Marcus of Queensbury rules. Yeah, thing right, Well,
1:52:44
Speaker 1: you know that's funny you'd bring that up once again.
1:52:47
Speaker 1: You nailed it.
1:52:48
Speaker 11: The Marcus of Queensbury rules and boxing was actually introduced
1:52:52
Speaker 11: in Europe as a way to settle these disputes without firearms.
1:52:55
Speaker 4: Ah.
1:52:56
Speaker 11: So there was so much dueling going on and so
1:52:58
Speaker 11: many young men being killed that they finally got this idea, well,
1:53:02
Speaker 11: let's just resort to fisticuffs and settle it that way.
1:53:05
Speaker 1: Apparently a duel could be justified and you just called
1:53:08
Speaker 1: somebody a name.
1:53:09
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, especially if you you said something that shed
1:53:13
Speaker 11: poor light on his girlfriend, or his mother or his sister.
1:53:17
Speaker 11: Women were especially held sacer sank. Now, think about this
1:53:21
Speaker 11: in compare it to today's society. First of all, they
1:53:23
Speaker 11: had honor. People were polite because if you shot off
1:53:27
Speaker 11: your mouth about somebody kill, you could be challenged and
1:53:30
Speaker 11: dragged into the street into a duel. And if you
1:53:33
Speaker 11: if you were uh, you know, the kind of person
1:53:38
Speaker 11: who says, nah, I don't want to do that. I'm sorry.
1:53:41
Speaker 11: If you back down after somebody had challenged you, then
1:53:44
Speaker 11: you were disgraced. You were just kind of an outcast
1:53:49
Speaker 11: from society. So the the amount of honor that people
1:53:54
Speaker 11: held it in high regard at that time It is
1:53:57
Speaker 11: just something that probably most of us really can't relate
1:54:00
Speaker 11: to anymore, because we see what happens in our society today.
1:54:04
Speaker 11: People do the most incredibly dishonorable things and then they
1:54:08
Speaker 11: just say let's move on, and nobody challenges them. They
1:54:12
Speaker 11: are not held accountable. I mean, I don't want to
1:54:14
Speaker 11: go back to dueling.
1:54:15
Speaker 1: He's gonna say, bailed suggestion from Peter Bronx, and we
1:54:18
Speaker 1: bring back dueling. Well, the Irish Code Duello is still there.
1:54:22
Speaker 1: I cite most of some of the rules of dueling
1:54:25
Speaker 1: in my book Learn All about It. Get a copy
1:54:27
Speaker 1: of Magical History to a murder Mystery, Buried History, and
1:54:30
Speaker 1: let us talk very briefly. Hear Peter Brons and you
1:54:32
Speaker 1: got a little extra fun and games going on at
1:54:34
Speaker 1: the tail end of the book. With ten places to
1:54:37
Speaker 1: discover in Cincinnti history, I suppose these relate to the
1:54:41
Speaker 1: individuals and points you made factually in the five stories
1:54:45
Speaker 1: you provide.
1:54:46
Speaker 11: Also in my other books, so things like the Man
1:54:50
Speaker 11: who Saved Cincinnati. The lu Wallace Study and Museum is
1:54:52
Speaker 11: one of those spots. The Pioneer Cemetery is one of
1:54:55
Speaker 11: those spots. I didn't even know about that until I
1:54:58
Speaker 11: found it down by Lunkin Airport. It's a fascinating little
1:55:01
Speaker 11: cemetery where you can find the grave of Major Benjamin Stites,
1:55:05
Speaker 11: who was one of the first settlers of Cincinnati in
1:55:10
Speaker 11: the seventeen eighties and nineties. And then there's another one
1:55:13
Speaker 11: called Congress Green Cemetery, and that's the one where Benjamin
1:55:17
Speaker 11: Scott or John Scott Harrison's body was robbed from the grave,
1:55:22
Speaker 11: and also the burial place of John Cleves Simms, who
1:55:27
Speaker 11: is sims purchase was all of the land that we
1:55:30
Speaker 11: stand on today in Cincinnati, how about that? And these
1:55:33
Speaker 11: are not of course, the Museum Center is fantastic, The
1:55:37
Speaker 11: Art Museum is fantastic, all of these things. I just
1:55:39
Speaker 11: wanted to find the little places that are kind of
1:55:43
Speaker 11: out of the way. Who knew that these were there?
1:55:46
Speaker 11: And that you can find out so much about our
1:55:48

1:57:49
Speaker 1: this rather fascinating. I guess I just sort of life
1:57:55
Speaker 1: change that you went through in my time of dying,
1:57:57
Speaker 1: how I came face to face with the idea of
1:58:00
Speaker 1: an afterlife, which is the name of your book, hugely
1:58:04
Speaker 1: successful book. Sebastian, Welcome to the fifty five KRSE Morning Show.
1:58:08
Speaker 9: Hey, thank you very much for having me.
1:58:10
Speaker 1: You know your I gotta you died. I'm gonna let
1:58:13
Speaker 1: you summarize what occurred to you and how life transformational
1:58:18
Speaker 1: this death experience was. But I got to tell you,
1:58:20
Speaker 1: I had a friend of my father's, or one of
1:58:23
Speaker 1: my fathers, my late father's friends, went through almost word
1:58:27
Speaker 1: for word exactly what you experienced when you ended up
1:58:30
Speaker 1: in the hospital. I mean he in his case, he
1:58:33
Speaker 1: died and met his mom and ended up being revived.
1:58:36
Speaker 1: In your case, it was your father. So let's walk
1:58:39
Speaker 1: through this. And I think it's really important for my
1:58:42
Speaker 1: listening audience to know that going into this experience, you
1:58:45
Speaker 1: were an atheist, a confirmed atheist.
1:58:50
Speaker 9: Yeah, and I still am. And my father was an
1:58:53
Speaker 9: atheist and a physicist, which is like atheist square. So
1:58:57
Speaker 9: that's where yeah, my family and iron covered from. So
1:59:00
Speaker 9: I had a you know, I was a war reporter
1:59:03
Speaker 9: for a long time and I've come close to getting
1:59:06
Speaker 9: killed a number of times, and I'd made my sort
1:59:09
Speaker 9: of peace with that, and then I stopped war reporting.
1:59:11
Speaker 1: I had a family.
1:59:12
Speaker 9: I felt like I sort of slid into home base.
1:59:15
Speaker 9: And I'm in good shape. I'm not a walking heart attack.
1:59:17
Speaker 9: I'm an athlete. I had no reason to have any
1:59:20
Speaker 9: concern for my medical well being, and in mid sentence,
1:59:24
Speaker 9: I felt that pain in my abdomen and it wasn't
1:59:26
Speaker 9: I had an undiagnosed aneurism in my pacriatic artery, which
1:59:31
Speaker 9: is this little artery that no one needs to think about.
1:59:33
Speaker 9: And an aneurism is a sort of unnatural balloting in
1:59:36
Speaker 9: the side of the artery that will eventually burst, and
1:59:39
Speaker 9: when it ruptures, you start bleeding out into your own abdomen.
1:59:45
Speaker 9: And the problem with that is doctors don't know where
1:59:47
Speaker 9: it is. If you get stabbed in the stomach, they
1:59:49
Speaker 9: know where to plug the leak, as it were, but
1:59:51
Speaker 9: not if it's internal hemorrhage, which is what I had.
1:59:53
Speaker 9: I lost half of my blood. It took me an
1:59:56
Speaker 9: hour and a half to get to the hospital. I
1:59:58
Speaker 9: lost at least half my blood more and I was
2:00:01
Speaker 9: an end stage hemorrhagic shock. When when I got there
2:00:05
Speaker 9: and while they were trying to get a pick line
2:00:09
Speaker 9: into my into my juguler to transfuse me. I needed
2:00:12
Speaker 9: ten units of blood, basically a.
2:00:14
Speaker 1: Full oil change.
2:00:15
Speaker 9: Right while they were doing that, I found myself getting
2:00:19
Speaker 9: pulled into this black pit, this sort of infinitely black pit,
2:00:22
Speaker 9: like the universe had cracked open.
2:00:24
Speaker 1: I had no idea I was dying, but.
2:00:26
Speaker 9: I was terrified of going into this darkness. And then
2:00:28
Speaker 9: my father, my dead father, appeared above me, uh and
2:00:33
Speaker 9: communicated to me, it's okay. Basically, it's okay, I'll take
2:00:37
Speaker 9: care of you.
2:00:38
Speaker 1: You don't have to fight it.
2:00:38
Speaker 9: I'll take care of you.
2:00:40
Speaker 1: And I was horrified, but I was like, I don't
2:00:44
Speaker 1: want to be with you.
2:00:45
Speaker 3: I want I want to stay.
2:00:46
Speaker 1: Here like and I said on that point, at that point,
2:00:50
Speaker 1: I hate the interrupt, But on that point, were you
2:00:52
Speaker 1: I mean I don't want to be with you? Was
2:00:55
Speaker 1: that a recognition that this was death? And I mean,
2:00:58
Speaker 1: you knew your dad was dead and you were talking
2:01:00
Speaker 1: or he was speaking with you from apparently beyond the
2:01:02
Speaker 1: grave or some sort. So is that where your fears
2:01:05
Speaker 1: them from?
2:01:06
Speaker 9: Well, you know, when you've lost half your blood, your
2:01:08
Speaker 9: brain's not working very well. I never connected those dots right.
2:01:12
Speaker 9: I was very puzzled to see him hovering above me.
2:01:15
Speaker 9: I mean, A, you're dead. B why are you floating right?
2:01:19
Speaker 9: I mean, I just I can't tell you how puzzled
2:01:22
Speaker 9: I was. And he was basically offering to take care
2:01:25
Speaker 9: of me. Come with me, I'll take care of you.
2:01:26
Speaker 9: I was like, why would I go You're dead? Why
2:01:28
Speaker 9: would I want to go with you? The party's over here.
2:01:31
Speaker 9: We'll talk later, like in a long time, A long
2:01:33
Speaker 9: time later.
2:01:34
Speaker 3: And I said to the.
2:01:35
Speaker 9: Doctor, you have to hurry, I'm going right, And as
2:01:40
Speaker 9: he was working to get the line into my neck.
2:01:44
Speaker 1: Wow, well, now that is one element that differs from
2:01:47
Speaker 1: the friend of my father's, because he was in my
2:01:52
Speaker 1: view of it, I use the term piece of God
2:01:53
Speaker 1: all the time. You know, it's like the piece of
2:01:55
Speaker 1: God that passes all human understanding. I think he experienced
2:01:58
Speaker 1: something like one would believe the piece of God. Anxiety,
2:02:00
Speaker 1: full relief, joy, happiness, and no worries, no concerns. And
2:02:05
Speaker 1: when he saw his mother speaking with him, I mean,
2:02:07
Speaker 1: he was just totally enlightened. But he looked down and
2:02:09
Speaker 1: saw himself on the operating table. He heard the doctors
2:02:12
Speaker 1: talking to each other, and some may argue, though, going
2:02:15
Speaker 1: back to your point about a dream state, was he
2:02:17
Speaker 1: really experiencing sort of a dream at the time his
2:02:20
Speaker 1: cognitive functions were still working and this was a manufactured thing,
2:02:23
Speaker 1: or was he indeed experiencing an afterlife? And is that
2:02:27
Speaker 1: sort of what led you on this post experience journey
2:02:31
Speaker 1: that you went on that you write about in the book.
2:02:34
Speaker 9: Yeah, So afterwards, I was very, very puzzled by what happened.
2:02:37
Speaker 9: And they managed to save my life. They got enough
2:02:40
Speaker 9: flood into me. They used a intivietual radiology at catheter
2:02:44
Speaker 9: to get through my venus system, through my arterial system
2:02:47
Speaker 9: to the rupture and plug it.
2:02:49
Speaker 1: Amazing, amazing medical care.
2:02:51
Speaker 9: And I woke up in the ICU the next morning
2:02:54
Speaker 9: and I went through all this conscious because they couldn't
2:02:58
Speaker 9: sedate me because my vital size was so low. So
2:03:00
Speaker 9: the next after I got home from the hospital, I
2:03:04
Speaker 9: started reading about NDEs near death experiences and what I
2:03:07
Speaker 9: found out was that what I experienced seeing.
2:03:09
Speaker 1: A dead loved one is very very common and.
2:03:13
Speaker 9: Uh, and I started to so I started to explore
2:03:17
Speaker 9: that and the the you know, the the ultimate question
2:03:20
Speaker 9: and maybe the ultimate mystery is as you say, Are
2:03:23
Speaker 9: these just the hallucinations of a dying brain? Or are
2:03:28
Speaker 9: is it a glimpse into the fact that we may
2:03:31
Speaker 9: not understand reality completely? We may not understand it very well.
2:03:35
Speaker 9: I mean, we may not understand consciousness and life and
2:03:38
Speaker 9: death in any way. And is this are these visions
2:03:43
Speaker 9: death bad visions? Are Are they showing us a glimpse
2:03:47
Speaker 9: of an ultimate reality which would be a sort of
2:03:49
Speaker 9: unity of all consciousness that that sort of idea?
2:03:52
Speaker 1: Now, did this experience transforming in a sense that what
2:03:56
Speaker 1: quite often what I've read? And of course there have
2:03:57
Speaker 1: been multiple accounts, as you point out, of this, other
2:04:01
Speaker 1: people experiencing very comparable things. Did you come back with
2:04:04
Speaker 1: a more profound appreciation for life? Like you know what
2:04:09
Speaker 1: it's like? I always dogree. You know you could die
2:04:11
Speaker 1: any day, You could go outside, a bustle hit you
2:04:13
Speaker 1: weren't planning for it. You know, we don't all go
2:04:15
Speaker 1: through like a long arduous battle with cancer. Sometimes bad
2:04:18
Speaker 1: things happen and you just check out without a moment's notice.
2:04:21
Speaker 1: So knowing that you literally can check out with a
2:04:24
Speaker 1: moment's notice, as you almost did, did it change you
2:04:27
Speaker 1: in how you see life on a day to day basis.
2:04:33
Speaker 9: Excuse me, Yes, yes it did, but you know, with
2:04:35
Speaker 9: a sort of caveat, with a sort of asterisk. So
2:04:38
Speaker 9: if you realize you could die not only any day,
2:04:40
Speaker 9: but any moment, it it shed a very very bright
2:04:46
Speaker 9: light on what the experience of life is. And it
2:04:49
Speaker 9: can make you very very paranoid, right, I mean you
2:04:52
Speaker 9: literally think I could die at any moment. It's very
2:04:55
Speaker 9: very hard to relax, right, And that terror is the
2:05:00
Speaker 9: flip side of reverence. So yeah, I could die at
2:05:03
Speaker 9: any moment. That's terrifying, or I could die at any moment.
2:05:06
Speaker 9: I have a great reverence and thankfulness for the fact
2:05:09
Speaker 9: that I exist right now, and they sort of go
2:05:12
Speaker 9: hand in hand and by At one point, so I
2:05:16
Speaker 9: went through a period of extreme anxiety. It took quite
2:05:22
Speaker 9: a months a year to sort of get out of that,
2:05:25
Speaker 9: and eventually where I landed was a kind of calm
2:05:29
Speaker 9: appreciation of how sort of blessed we are. And I
2:05:31
Speaker 9: mean blessed in a secular sense, right, I'm not religious,
2:05:35
Speaker 9: but how blessed we all are to exist at all.
2:05:38
Speaker 9: And it's easy to forget that when you're stuck in
2:05:40
Speaker 9: a traffic jam or you know, running to doing the
2:05:42
Speaker 9: groceries or whatever.
2:05:44
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I have a good question for you particularly,
2:05:46
Speaker 1: and I think it's most appropriate for you because of
2:05:49
Speaker 1: your being a about atheist. Where did your terror come from?
2:05:53
Speaker 1: I know people that are afraid of death because they
2:05:55
Speaker 1: remember what they did during their life, and you can't
2:05:58
Speaker 1: pat yourself on the back for all the things you
2:05:59
Speaker 1: did life. Quite often religion will bring about that. It's
2:06:02
Speaker 1: like watching the Ebenezer screwge. You know, he looks like,
2:06:06
Speaker 1: oh my God, look what's gonna happen to me? If
2:06:07
Speaker 1: I don't change my ways, I will be doomed to
2:06:10
Speaker 1: eternal power are a peril. No, if I think that's
2:06:14
Speaker 1: a possibility, that's going to scare the hell out of me.
2:06:16
Speaker 1: So I would have terror thinking that I might die
2:06:18
Speaker 1: if I haven't changed my life or otherwise undone the
2:06:21
Speaker 1: bad that I've done. But how about in your case?
2:06:26
Speaker 1: Because honestly, sir, regardless of my personal philosophy about life,
2:06:30
Speaker 1: death and doctrine and dogma, I've kind of come to
2:06:33
Speaker 1: a realization that I'm not afraid of death. I've reconciled
2:06:36
Speaker 1: myself with that. I'm prepared to meet my make or
2:06:38
Speaker 1: I'm prepared for whatever comes and I'm you know, if
2:06:41
Speaker 1: they pull the plug of meats right now, I'm on
2:06:43
Speaker 1: the morning show. I can't handle that. I at least
2:06:45
Speaker 1: I think I can. I don't live in terror or
2:06:48
Speaker 1: fear of death at all.
2:06:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, it was.
2:06:53
Speaker 9: A consequence of trauma, right. I've been in a lot
2:06:56
Speaker 9: of combat and was traumatized by that.
2:06:58
Speaker 1: Sure, a lot of people who have made.
2:07:01
Speaker 9: Their peace with dying are so traumatized by the events
2:07:05
Speaker 9: that they saw on the battlefield. And I was very
2:07:07
Speaker 9: traumatized by this experience, you know, in mid sentence talking
2:07:10
Speaker 9: to my wife, all of a sudden, I was circling
2:07:13
Speaker 9: the drain, and that that could happen at any moment
2:07:16
Speaker 9: can make you overly self aware, right, overly conscious of
2:07:20
Speaker 9: your moment to moment experience.
2:07:22
Speaker 1: I also had very young children.
2:07:24
Speaker 9: I came to fatherhood late in my mid fifties. I
2:07:27
Speaker 9: love them more than life itself, and they are life
2:07:30
Speaker 9: itself for me. And so the idea of being sort
2:07:31
Speaker 9: of plucked, plucked out of my family, leaving my family
2:07:35
Speaker 9: with the records of my death like it just I
2:07:38
Speaker 9: couldn't bear to think about it.
2:07:40
Speaker 1: That I get that makes perfect sense to me because
2:07:42
Speaker 1: you know, I have a wife, I have family, I
2:07:44
Speaker 1: love them dearly, and yeah, the idea of missing them.
2:07:48
Speaker 1: But see, then that goes back to is there something
2:07:50
Speaker 1: afterward that will cause you to miss them? I don't
2:07:55
Speaker 1: know what's coming. In my philosophy, I don't believe in ghosts.
2:07:57
Speaker 1: For example, Sebastian, I don't want to believe in the afterlife.
2:08:00
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be looming around, lurking, watching what people are doing,
2:08:04
Speaker 1: or scaring the crap out of people. I think God
2:08:06
Speaker 1: or we have a greater mystery out there to contemplate
2:08:09
Speaker 1: than something like that. So I choose not to believe
2:08:11
Speaker 1: in them because I don't want to believe in that
2:08:12
Speaker 1: as a concept. So, but that longing and that thinking
2:08:18
Speaker 1: about your current cognitive awareness of people and interactions and
2:08:23
Speaker 1: people thinking about you, were talking about you, that that
2:08:26
Speaker 1: has to continue to exist after you die to have
2:08:29
Speaker 1: some concern about what it's going to be like. I
2:08:31
Speaker 1: like to think that that's over with.
2:08:34
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, very very well, maybe overWe that, but you know,
2:08:37
Speaker 9: it was it was more an understanding now as a
2:08:40
Speaker 9: person who is alive, that this could all endown, right,
2:08:45
Speaker 9: And that's that's kind of that's kind of wrenching it
2:08:48
Speaker 9: and it it and also it was more the concern
2:08:51
Speaker 9: was more what you would do to my family, more
2:08:53
Speaker 9: left behind like that was that was a very very
2:08:56
Speaker 9: painful idea very young kids. And you know, I just
2:09:00
Speaker 9: say it was to unbearable.
2:09:01
Speaker 3: To think about.
2:09:02
Speaker 1: I get it in my time of dying, how I
2:09:04
Speaker 1: came face to face with the idea of an afterlife.
2:09:07
Speaker 1: My guest today Sebastian Younger. Again, this is empower You

2:09:49
Speaker 1: My pleasure to do with Sebastian Younger, really a pleasure
2:09:52

2:09:55
Speaker 1: best of luck on the empower You Seminar Tuesday, seven pm.
2:09:59
Speaker 1: Happy holidays to you, Sebastian, you two, Thank you very much.
2:10:03
Speaker 1: Thanks my friend eight nineteen. Right now, if you I
2:10:04
Speaker 1: have KCD talk station, shot will open up the phone lines.
2:10:07
Speaker 1: We have time to talk. I got other stories we
2:10:09
Speaker 1: can talk about. Maybe there's something I talked about earlier.
2:10:10
Speaker 1: You want to chime in on it, feel free to
2:10:12
Speaker 1: do so, but that'll be after I mentioned my friends
2:10:15
Speaker 1: at Foreign Exchange. I really do view them as friends.
2:10:17
Speaker 1: It's kind of like family. Every time I go there,
2:10:19
Speaker 1: I know them all have been going there for years,
2:10:21
Speaker 1: and there's a good reason I've been going to Foreign
2:10:22
Speaker 1: Exchange for automobile repairs for years. I save a lot
2:10:26
Speaker 1: of money, plus I get that family like environment. They
2:10:28
Speaker 1: have a sc certified master technicians that know how to
2:10:30
Speaker 1: work on any imported or traditionally imported car you bring them,
2:10:34
Speaker 1: whether it's from Asia or Europe. Exotic or run of
2:10:36
Speaker 1: the mill. Plus they service Tesla's as well. BOSH certified
2:10:40
Speaker 1: business it is you get a full warranty on parts
2:10:43
Speaker 1: and service, and the greatest thing about it less money
2:10:47
Speaker 1: than the deal or deal. We all know automobile repairs
2:10:51
Speaker 1: have gone through the roof, so you can take some
2:10:52
Speaker 1: of the edge off of that by going to Foreign
2:10:54
Speaker 1: Exchange and you will be glad you went there. The
2:10:56
Speaker 1: one I go to the location Westchester. That's the Howlersville
2:11:00
Speaker 1: exit right off of I seventy five. Just go east,
2:11:02
Speaker 1: take a ride on Kinglin. It's the second street. Really
2:11:05
Speaker 1: easy to get to right there at the Exchange. To
2:11:07
Speaker 1: find him online, it's foreign x dot Com A plus
2:11:09
Speaker 1: with the BBB, of course foreign x dot Com five
2:11:12
Speaker 1: one three, six, four four, twenty six, twenty six, six,
2:11:15
Speaker 1: four four, twenty six, twenty.
2:11:16
Speaker 4: Six, fifty five KRC at Postman Law We're not Hey,
2:11:22
Speaker 4: twenty nine and fifty five KRC de Talk Station.
2:11:24
Speaker 1: Very Happy Friday to Yeah. I'm another reminder. I'm off
2:11:27
Speaker 1: Monday Tuesday. Maybe you don't care, but Gary Jeff Walker does.
2:11:30
Speaker 1: He's gonna be coming for me on Monday. So Gary Jeff,
2:11:32
Speaker 1: if you're out there, thank you in advance for doing that.
2:11:34
Speaker 1: Dan Carroll covering for me on tuesdays, I use up
2:11:37
Speaker 1: the remaining vacation I had days I have because if
2:11:40
Speaker 1: you don't use them, smoke them. If you got him
2:11:41
Speaker 1: around here, you can't keep them. Want to see if
2:11:43
Speaker 1: we can't get a a charity donation. I've seen other
2:11:47
Speaker 1: companies have this, and I don't think I heard has it.
2:11:50
Speaker 1: You've got unused vacation days and you can't carry him over,
2:11:53
Speaker 1: why not donate him somebody else, you know, maybe having
2:11:57
Speaker 1: a problem. Maybe guy had an aneurysm and you know
2:11:58
Speaker 1: you got to take care of his family or whatever.
2:12:00
Speaker 1: You know, donate your vacation days if you're not using them.
2:12:02
Speaker 1: So anyway, just a thought, But I'm trying to burn
2:12:05
Speaker 1: through minds, and Strucker decided late yesterday afternoon he was
2:12:09
Speaker 1: burning through one of his today. That's why Sean McMahon
2:12:12
Speaker 1: is doing a great job covering for Joe today. Let's
2:12:14
Speaker 1: go to the phone. See what Jim's got, Hey, Jim,
2:12:15
Speaker 1: thanks for calling man, Welcome to the Morning Show.
2:12:18
Speaker 7: Good morning, Brian. Following up there on Peter Bronson's Bleeding Kansas.
2:12:25
Speaker 7: Leading up to that in the late eighteen thirties in
2:12:28
Speaker 7: that western western Missouri, the Morlings were chased out of Missouri.
2:12:35
Speaker 7: One of the main reasons was because they were anti slavery,
2:12:39
Speaker 7: and in fact there was an extermination were issued on
2:12:42
Speaker 7: the Mormons, which was an effect, was issued by Governor
2:12:47
Speaker 7: Boggs and was an effect until the nineteen seventies.
2:12:50
Speaker 1: No kidding, well, I learned a lot this morning. I
2:12:54
Speaker 1: had forgotten, or at least wasn't familiar with bleeding Kansas
2:12:57
Speaker 1: as a concept. I didn't realize John Brown was such
2:12:59
Speaker 1: a a savage, crazy guy. I just read this morning
2:13:03
Speaker 1: after I talked with Charles Bronson about the Potawatomy massacre,
2:13:08
Speaker 1: that he was behind hacking to death five pro slavery
2:13:12
Speaker 1: civilians with broadswords in the middle of the night. Not
2:13:15
Speaker 1: exactly a pleasant man he was. I guess I understand
2:13:17
Speaker 1: the motivations. I just don't think acting in that way
2:13:20
Speaker 1: is an appropriate way to resolve a political conflict. But
2:13:24
Speaker 1: crazy times back then, Jim, I appreciate you chiming in
2:13:26
Speaker 1: on that one, and again I'll encourage everybody to get
2:13:28
Speaker 1: the copy of Peter's book. It's really cool, magical history tour,
2:13:31
Speaker 1: murder Mystery Buried History. It's five short stories, and that
2:13:35
Speaker 1: is one of the wings that was discussed within that.
2:13:38
Speaker 1: The other thing he mention just that rifles at forty
2:13:41
Speaker 1: paces segment that we talked about the duel. The duel
2:13:47
Speaker 1: was with rifles at forty paces. So I always thought
2:13:51
Speaker 1: duels were with pistols, you know, grab one of the pistols,
2:13:53
Speaker 1: you know, and the again, going by the rules, you know,
2:13:56
Speaker 1: step ten paces, turn around and squeezed. I suppose you're
2:14:00
Speaker 1: are more likely to hit your target if you're shooting
2:14:01
Speaker 1: at the other guy with a rifle. Anyhow, Mark's go
2:14:05
Speaker 1: ahead and take Mark's call. I know's he's angry about
2:14:08
Speaker 1: my last guest, Mark, Welcome to the Morning show him. Ryan,
2:14:12
Speaker 1: it's on your mind, Mark, just real quick.
2:14:15
Speaker 13: I just wanted to say I listened to your dad
2:14:17
Speaker 13: for years and loved him. Just a little side note.
2:14:21
Speaker 13: I was listening in the morning that Nancy McCormick helicopter
2:14:24
Speaker 13: went and that was a trip. But none of that
2:14:28
Speaker 13: last guy. I'm trying to figure out how we're blessed,
2:14:32
Speaker 13: but he's an atheist.
2:14:33
Speaker 3: I don't.
2:14:34
Speaker 13: I just back blew my mind. And then both you
2:14:37
Speaker 13: guys talking about like the afterlife, and that it's like,
2:14:40
Speaker 13: does he believe in a soul? Do you believe in
2:14:43
Speaker 13: a soul? I personally handed out of body experience, and
2:14:48
Speaker 13: I saw my soul, saw my flesh and.
2:14:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was like my dad's friend. He was
2:14:55
Speaker 1: watching himself from above on the operating table, and he
2:14:59
Speaker 1: was a doc. I mean the guy was a surgeon too,
2:15:01
Speaker 1: if I recall correctly, So he knew exactly what was
2:15:03
Speaker 1: going on exactly the same thing.
2:15:05
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, but just again, the thing that got my
2:15:09
Speaker 13: eyer up was the sam we're blessed, but he doesn't
2:15:13
Speaker 13: believe in God, So where's the blessing coming from?
2:15:16
Speaker 1: Well, I consider myself blessed for the information. Apparently he's
2:15:20
Speaker 1: written an amazing book. He should read the reviews of it.
2:15:22
Speaker 1: People were moved by it in many different ways, people
2:15:25
Speaker 1: of different faiths and religions, or maybe people who are
2:15:28
Speaker 1: atheists or having no particular doctrinal dogmatic connection. It's still
2:15:32
Speaker 1: fascinating subject matter. He lived through it, he's documented himself
2:15:35
Speaker 1: that he had this experience. One would might tend to
2:15:39
Speaker 1: believe that that might lead him to a conclusion that
2:15:41
Speaker 1: there is an afterlife that may turn someone toward religion.
2:15:46
Speaker 1: So it is a positive thing to talk about, and
2:15:48
Speaker 1: it's a great thing to look at it from different
2:15:49
Speaker 1: elements and aspects. I have many friends in the listening audience, Mark,
2:15:53
Speaker 1: who are not religious. They are either atheists or agnostic.
2:16:00
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard me say what religion I am?
2:16:02
Speaker 1: None of my arguments, none of my principles, none of
2:16:05
Speaker 1: my foundational points with regard to matters political ever, spring
2:16:08
Speaker 1: from a religious philosophy. It may incorporate a particular set
2:16:12
Speaker 1: of religious principles, but I'm trying to be neutral because
2:16:15
Speaker 1: we are We do not live in a theocracy in
2:16:18
Speaker 1: this country. If our founding fathers wanted to have an
2:16:21
Speaker 1: established religion which they fled from, they would have incorporated it.
2:16:24
Speaker 1: That's why we have a First Amendment free exercise of
2:16:27
Speaker 1: religion that accounts for all people. And as I go
2:16:30
Speaker 1: through life, I can learn and be interested by and
2:16:32
Speaker 1: ergo be blessed by the simple blessing of education, expanded thought,
2:16:38
Speaker 1: expanded thinking, by interchanging and in exchange and exchanging ideas
2:16:43
Speaker 1: with people of different faiths, religions, or maybe people who
2:16:45
Speaker 1: don't even have them. I think that is in and
2:16:48
Speaker 1: of itself a blessing. So I guess it depends on
2:16:51
Speaker 1: how you define the word blessing Mark, But I'm glad
2:16:53
Speaker 1: he's around. I'm glad he's willing to talk about it,
2:16:55
Speaker 1: and if you log in the seminar, he's going to
2:16:57
Speaker 1: be taking questions. Didn't this have an impact on your atheism?
2:17:01
Speaker 1: Didn't your experience kind of give you the sense that
2:17:04
Speaker 1: there is something out there that is more mysterious that
2:17:07
Speaker 1: may have a full a connection with religion or not.
2:17:12
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe one could argue that even supports his atheism. Hmm.
2:17:17
Speaker 1: If there's an afterlife and he's going to see his dad,
2:17:20
Speaker 1: that's kind of one of the things that heaven conceptually
2:17:22
Speaker 1: is all about. But an atheist got to experience that.
2:17:29
Speaker 1: Even an atheist who doesn't believe in any of that,
2:17:32
Speaker 1: had an after life experience. It's kind of interesting, and
2:17:37
Speaker 1: that's why I gave him sort of I wanted to
2:17:39
Speaker 1: emphasize it. He emphasizes in his own materials, in his
2:17:41
Speaker 1: own book and his own description of his background that
2:17:44
Speaker 1: he is so I thought that was one of the
2:17:47
Speaker 1: more fascinating elements of his experience because most people might
2:17:51
Speaker 1: use that as an opportunity to prosthlytize see there is
2:17:55
Speaker 1: an afterlife, and that supports my personal belief systems. Whatever
2:17:59
Speaker 1: they want happened to be that there is an afterlife
2:18:01
Speaker 1: and you're gonna see something. So yeah, I think it's
2:18:04
Speaker 1: a valuable exercise. So maybe you and I just view
2:18:06
Speaker 1: the term blessing differently. Five one, three, seven, four nine
2:18:09
Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight to two three
2:18:11
Speaker 1: talk oh pound five fifty on AT and T Funds,
2:18:13
Speaker 1: and I'll give you another number here in a moment.
2:18:15
Speaker 1: Chris Chimneycare Fireplace and Stove. I love wintertime if for
2:18:19
Speaker 1: any no other reason you get the light the fire
2:18:22
Speaker 1: in the fireplace. I just love the glow of the
2:18:25
Speaker 1: fireplace just that it's it's just old school charm. So
2:18:30
Speaker 1: I've been lighting mine a lot lately. I have a
2:18:32
Speaker 1: gas fireplace remote control. I like to emphasize that because
2:18:34
Speaker 1: we got the insert from Chimneycare Fireplace and Stove, and
2:18:37
Speaker 1: it is amazing. You can adjust the blower on it
2:18:39
Speaker 1: to get more heat in the room, back it off
2:18:41
Speaker 1: if you want, continue with the fire without the extra
2:18:43
Speaker 1: heat coming in whatever. You can even run it in
2:18:45
Speaker 1: the summer if you want. So it's just a great
2:18:47
Speaker 1: thing they have a showroom filled with fireplace insert's free
2:18:50
Speaker 1: standing so self self feeding wood waste pellet stoves. And
2:18:53
Speaker 1: then there's this service. They do everything inspections. They'll build
2:18:57
Speaker 1: you a whole new, brand new fireplace in chimney if
2:18:59
Speaker 1: you want. They do relining, cap and damper replacement, and
2:19:02
Speaker 1: a video camera inspection which goes along with a chimney
2:19:04
Speaker 1: sweep because you need your chimney inspected of wood burning.
2:19:07
Speaker 1: Friends will reveal whether you have any water damage or
2:19:10
Speaker 1: the crack lining, and they, of course certified chimney sweeps
2:19:12
Speaker 1: will be sweeping it out for you so you can
2:19:14

2:19:41
Speaker 1: you've time. You get religions, some people get angry. I
2:19:43
Speaker 1: don't think he was necessarily angry, but Ernie claims, I'm
2:19:46
Speaker 1: jumping through hoops to support my policies. I don't agree
2:19:49
Speaker 1: with a lot of them. That's cool, Ernie, that's what
2:19:51
Speaker 1: the morning shows all about. That's why have a phone number,
2:19:54
Speaker 1: and I have to take his call. I knew he
2:19:55

2:20:00

2:20:01
Speaker 1: a shout, Ernie, Listen, I say it all the time.
2:20:05
Speaker 1: I'm one man. Opinions are like sphincters. We all have one.
2:20:09
Speaker 1: I try to support everything that I believe in with
2:20:11
Speaker 1: logic and reason and my profound faith and belief in
2:20:17
Speaker 1: the Constitution and the principles embodied there by our founding fathers,
2:20:20
Speaker 1: who literally lived through the whole idea of a established
2:20:26
Speaker 1: religion and church. They had to pay taxes to the
2:20:28
Speaker 1: Church of England whether or not they belong to the
2:20:30
Speaker 1: Church of England the various colonies. So that was one
2:20:32
Speaker 1: of the reasons why we have free exercise. That's okay.
2:20:34
Speaker 1: In my world. Free exercise allows me to go down
2:20:37
Speaker 1: whatever path I choose and That's what prostlyization is all about,
2:20:41
Speaker 1: isn't it. There are folks out there in the world
2:20:43
Speaker 1: that disagree with your particular religious philosophy. Maybe you sit
2:20:46
Speaker 1: down and have a conversation with them, Maybe through engaging
2:20:50
Speaker 1: in communication, logic, perhaps in reason, you can convince them
2:20:53
Speaker 1: to come over to your side of the ledger.
2:20:56
Speaker 9: You know.
2:20:56
Speaker 1: And if you are a believer and you really truly
2:20:59
Speaker 1: believe that there's go what the eternal damnation, don't you
2:21:01
Speaker 1: owe it to your friends to try to convince them
2:21:03
Speaker 1: that you don't want them to go through eternal damnation?
2:21:06
Speaker 1: Isn't that the point of prostialization, not necessarily bring another
2:21:09
Speaker 1: member of into your faith, but to save them from
2:21:12
Speaker 1: the eternal damnation that you believe in. I mean seriously,
2:21:18
Speaker 1: but it's always a tricky subject. Always just saying, and
2:21:24
Speaker 1: I've been asking the question since this morning. And thanks
2:21:27
Speaker 1: again and props to Signal ninety nine. If you remember
2:21:29
Speaker 1: on Facebook, then follow Signal ninety nine. She's a hoot,
2:21:32
Speaker 1: but she is really on top of all things political
2:21:35
Speaker 1: and not a huge fan of Mara have to have parwall,
2:21:37
Speaker 1: but she brought it to everybody's attention, including the reporters
2:21:39
Speaker 1: over WCPOU, I have to have par Ball apparently has
2:21:44
Speaker 1: already had one automobile repossessed, but maybe even a second.
2:21:52
Speaker 1: So Tanya Roork and Taylor Waiter over at the WCPO
2:21:56
Speaker 1: reached out to Mara have to have pur Ball about
2:21:58
Speaker 1: these claims that he has two repossessions orders for his
2:22:00
Speaker 1: vehicles over the past couple of years now. This sprung
2:22:03
Speaker 1: from this post from the admittedly satire page Signal ninety nine.
2:22:08
Speaker 1: Although it does include a lot of satires, She is funny,
2:22:11
Speaker 1: but it also includes a lot of very factual information,
2:22:14
Speaker 1: like the fact that he and did get his car
2:22:17
Speaker 1: repossessed at least once. Anyway, I guess they're looking into
2:22:20
Speaker 1: whether there was a number two, so she got a
2:22:24
Speaker 1: lot of attention. Claimed Parvall had his car repossessed in
2:22:26
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four and then again now suggests that maybe
2:22:30
Speaker 1: there's another one out there, so we uh. Thursday, she
2:22:34
Speaker 1: posted a picture of an alleged repossession of the order
2:22:37
Speaker 1: for Provall's twenty twenty three Lincoln Aviator date November six,
2:22:41
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, and redacts a bunch of other information.
2:22:44
Speaker 1: Page claimed that this wasn't the first order to repossess
2:22:47
Speaker 1: one of his vehicles, claims he has two, so when
2:22:51
Speaker 1: they reached out to him, he confirmed his car was
2:22:56
Speaker 1: in fact repossessed last year. At least one last year
2:23:00
Speaker 1: due to my carelessness, my auto pay on my car
2:23:03
Speaker 1: was not working, and as a result, my car was repossessed.
2:23:05
Speaker 1: Since that time, I have been in possession of my car.
2:23:07
Speaker 1: I'm up to date of my payments, and I'm not
2:23:08
Speaker 1: aware of any other pending issues. I thought that was
2:23:12
Speaker 1: kind of curious. Not aware of any other pending issues.
2:23:15
Speaker 1: Now would Signal ninety nine find out there might have
2:23:17
Speaker 1: been a second repossession. If he doesn't claim to have
2:23:19
Speaker 1: any awareness of it, I'll let you process that one anyway.
2:23:22
Speaker 1: He says, I'm up to date on my payments and
2:23:24
Speaker 1: I'm not aware of any of the pending issues. I
2:23:25
Speaker 1: made a mistake, and I'll make sure it doesn't happen again. Now,
2:23:28
Speaker 1: the question I have burning in the back of my mind.
2:23:31
Speaker 1: Has anybody been through this repossession process before? And if so,
2:23:37
Speaker 1: how long or how many car payments do you have
2:23:39
Speaker 1: to miss before they can come over and repossess it.
2:23:43
Speaker 1: I mean, I know they can't shut the power and
2:23:45
Speaker 1: water off in your place without a whole lot of notice.
2:23:47
Speaker 1: I'd like to think at least they can't evict you
2:23:49
Speaker 1: without a lot of notice. But can they just miss
2:23:54
Speaker 1: Can you just miss one payment and then show up
2:23:56
Speaker 1: with a tow truck just asking for a friend? Feel
2:24:00
Speaker 1: free to give me a call five three, seven, four
2:24:02
Speaker 1: nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to
2:24:04

2:25:12
Speaker 1: only fifty five kr CE sanctioned Christmas music. I'm sure
2:25:16
Speaker 1: there's some people that disagree with that too. No Trans
2:25:20
Speaker 1: Siberian Orchestra for the fifty five cars Morton Show. I
2:25:23
Speaker 1: do love the Vince Garlty trio. And of course you
2:25:26
Speaker 1: cannot beat in terms of Christmas viewing Charlie Brown. Christmas
2:25:30
Speaker 1: every single year in my life. Came out in sixty five,
2:25:32
Speaker 1: the year of my birth, and make it a point
2:25:34
Speaker 1: to watch it every year back I'll go on all
2:25:36
Speaker 1: the way back to the days when you had to
2:25:37
Speaker 1: plan for it. Oh, it's gonna be Friday at you know,
2:25:40
Speaker 1: seven pm or whatever, gather around the TV and wait
2:25:42
Speaker 1: for it to come on, and you can throw a
2:25:44
Speaker 1: disc in. That's old school too, isn't it. Just pull
2:25:47
Speaker 1: it up on your streaming audio service. But if you
2:25:49
Speaker 1: forgot what Christmas is about, Ernie forgot what Christmas is about,
2:25:54
Speaker 1: watched the Charlie Brown Christmas. Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown, and
2:25:59
Speaker 1: enjoy the Vince Girl trio. That was the first thing
2:26:02
Speaker 1: I put on. I've been trying to get myself in
2:26:04
Speaker 1: a Christmas spirit and started doing some cooking the other
2:26:07
Speaker 1: day in the kitchen, and I even the day after Thanksgiving,
2:26:10
Speaker 1: which I never put Christmas on until at least into December,
2:26:13
Speaker 1: I put on the Vince Garaldi trio while I was cooking,
2:26:16
Speaker 1: and it really put a smile on my face. So
2:26:18
Speaker 1: try to make an effort to put a smile on
2:26:19
Speaker 1: your face, especially in these trying times. And speaking of
2:26:22
Speaker 1: trying times, Oh real quick, who was it? Let me
2:26:25
Speaker 1: give credit where credit is to got a message alerting
2:26:30
Speaker 1: me to this. Oh shoot, Chip, I had mentioned this,
2:26:40
Speaker 1: this letter coming from Hugo carraval Barrios. He is in prison,
2:26:46
Speaker 1: former three star Venezuela in general and director of military intelligence.
2:26:51
Speaker 1: Now he is talking about how the Venezuelans and Maduro
2:26:55
Speaker 1: are weaponizing drugs as tools against America. This is much
2:26:59
Speaker 1: in the way that Chinese Communist Party weaponizes literally everything
2:27:02
Speaker 1: behind the scenes, hacking into servers, preparing themselves for the
2:27:05
Speaker 1: day when they flip the switch, using social media divide us,
2:27:08
Speaker 1: to divide us and advance their political agenda, maybe advancing
2:27:12
Speaker 1: the cause of atheism. Earnie, I don't know, but they're
2:27:14
Speaker 1: doing the various things out there. Well. One of the
2:27:19
Speaker 1: things he said was about this election system, nonsense smartmatic system.
2:27:23
Speaker 1: He said, I placed the head of it, of the
2:27:26
Speaker 1: National Electoral Council that would be a position in Venezuela,
2:27:30
Speaker 1: in his position, and he reported directly to me the
2:27:33
Speaker 1: smartmatic system can be altered. This is a fact. Now,
2:27:38
Speaker 1: he says, it's all. It was altered in the Venezuelan elections.
2:27:42
Speaker 1: And many people are saying that election was stolen by Maduro,
2:27:44
Speaker 1: and I tend to agree with that, you know, sort
2:27:46
Speaker 1: of assessment. But he doesn't claim necessarily that every election
2:27:50
Speaker 1: that's related to smartmatic is stolen. He doesn't lay specific
2:27:54
Speaker 1: charges with regard to elections in the United States, but
2:27:58
Speaker 1: there was some connection with Smartmatic and some of the
2:28:00
Speaker 1: voting systems that we use here and so Dominion for example.
2:28:04
Speaker 1: And so when I mentioned Dominion, chip alerted to me,
2:28:07
Speaker 1: I think I may have read it, But that has
2:28:09
Speaker 1: been purchased and it no longer has any connection with
2:28:14
Speaker 1: the Smartmatic folks. A guy named Scott Weyendecker, founder and
2:28:18
Speaker 1: chairman of Liberty Vote, and he's the only owner of
2:28:21
Speaker 1: Dominion voting systems, former GOP election reform advocate, and he
2:28:26
Speaker 1: acquired Dominion as the sole private owner earlier this year.
2:28:29
Speaker 1: So finally we have no connection at least with the Venezuelans.
2:28:32
Speaker 1: Whether or not you believe in the integrity to vote
2:28:34
Speaker 1: or whether these electronic voting system should be used or
2:28:37
Speaker 1: not is a different thing. But I wanted to update
2:28:39
Speaker 1: you on that. And then the other reality we have
2:28:41
Speaker 1: to deal with. It's the political reality. You remember why
2:28:46
Speaker 1: the government shut down recently? Remember Continuing Resolution? It passed
2:28:52
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the Biden level funding levels from
2:28:55
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Why do the Republicans do that and
2:28:58
Speaker 1: not like Thomas Massey wanted in others cut the size
2:29:01
Speaker 1: of government with the Continuing Resolution because they wanted to
2:29:03
Speaker 1: deprive the Democrats of an argument. They had no argument,
2:29:08
Speaker 1: which is why they capitulated. They couldn't say, ah, those
2:29:10
Speaker 1: evil Republicans want to cut this, that, and the other thing.
2:29:14
Speaker 1: So we were left with that reality Biden level funding.
2:29:17
Speaker 1: But it gave them the upper hand in a political argument. Look,
2:29:21
Speaker 1: you're the one that put the expiration of the tax
2:29:23
Speaker 1: credits in there, Democrats, we didn't even vote for that.
2:29:27
Speaker 1: You own it. Now since that battle was won, the
2:29:31
Speaker 1: tax credits are expiring at the end of the month,
2:29:34
Speaker 1: and it's really being it's an eye opener because the
2:29:36
Speaker 1: notices are going out and people are coming to the
2:29:38
Speaker 1: painful reality of what they're going to be paying under
2:29:40
Speaker 1: Obamacare on a monthly basis, if, of course, they're above
2:29:43
Speaker 1: the poverty level cut off of which I think is
2:29:46
Speaker 1: like sixty two thousand dollars roughly. Now, those Obamacare tax
2:29:51
Speaker 1: credits that they wanted to extend were, you know, folks
2:29:53
Speaker 1: making more than six hundred percent of the poverty level,
2:29:56
Speaker 1: some making one thousand percent of the federal poverty level. Yeah,
2:29:59
Speaker 1: is there a reason to get them credit? No, it
2:30:00
Speaker 1: masks the real cost of Obamacare. But now we've got
2:30:05
Speaker 1: a dozen Republican lawmakers joining with a bunch of Democrats
2:30:07
Speaker 1: in support of extending them, continue the argument that they're
2:30:13
Speaker 1: making no no, they end at the end of the month.
2:30:15
Speaker 3: This is you.
2:30:15
Speaker 1: Now they're suggesting maybe we should extend them for a year,
2:30:18
Speaker 1: maybe two years. Why because of November twenty six, Republicans
2:30:26
Speaker 1: at least a handful of them now are coming to
2:30:28
Speaker 1: the paint for reality. This is going to provide the
2:30:29
Speaker 1: Democrats with an argument, look at what they did. They
2:30:34
Speaker 1: made your premiums go up. They didn't change anything about healthcare.
2:30:37
Speaker 1: You're the ones that created the system and the mess
2:30:39
Speaker 1: that it brought about. You're the ones that is the
2:30:41
Speaker 1: reason why the premiums are so high if we get
2:30:43
Speaker 1: to experience the reality of them because you're not covering
2:30:46
Speaker 1: them over with the taxpayer sponsored credit. But since that
2:30:50
Speaker 1: argument will be there, the Republicans are worried that we
2:30:53
Speaker 1: go into November of twenty six, they're going to be
2:30:55
Speaker 1: screaming about us being evil and cutting off all these
2:30:57
Speaker 1: supplements and they'll have and now they're worried. Let's be
2:31:03
Speaker 1: frank here for a minute. If they don't do it,
2:31:06
Speaker 1: extend them by December thirty. First, the premiums are going
2:31:09
Speaker 1: to go up. It's going to cause chaos. The poll
2:31:10
Speaker 1: numbers are going to go down. That's surrender for the midterms.
2:31:13
Speaker 1: That's a quote from Washington Bureau Chief Matt Boyle at Breitbart,
2:31:17
Speaker 1: who's been on this program a bunch of times. The
2:31:19
Speaker 1: smart move for the Republicans, he said, is to take
2:31:21
Speaker 1: the weapons away from the Democrats and push it beyond
2:31:23
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty eight election. Yep. Now, whether or not
2:31:26
Speaker 1: I agree with Matts's, you know, the assessment overall, I
2:31:29
Speaker 1: think it's accurate politically, But is this not further kicking
2:31:34
Speaker 1: the can down the road? Is this not the same
2:31:36
Speaker 1: exercise we go through all the time, over and over
2:31:39
Speaker 1: and over and over again. And when you read about
2:31:44
Speaker 1: the amount of corruption that exists, not Minnesota like corruption
2:31:50
Speaker 1: with other programs, but corruption in connection with the Affordable
2:31:55
Speaker 1: Care Act and the tax credits. When you see how
2:32:00
Speaker 1: many numbers social security names were used over and over
2:32:04
Speaker 1: again by multiple people, multiple times, fake social Security numbers,
2:32:09
Speaker 1: no checking for fraud, waste, and abuse, it's like nonexistent.
2:32:15
Speaker 1: The GAO did its own undercover test, our own government
2:32:19
Speaker 1: put out fake applicants. They were approved ninety percent of
2:32:24
Speaker 1: the time. Yeah, this is what we're signing up for.
2:32:28
Speaker 1: Eight fifty six fifty five cars City Talk Station. I'm
2:32:30
