  Speaker 1: My question to you tonight is simple, very simple. You
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: ready's at hit me if you yes, we're a politician today, now,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: this moment in time, would you return any funds received
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: from Wexner Abigail or less or or the new Albany
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: pack or any money that they controlled.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, just for the look of it, yes, But
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: why blazard I were talking about it with the hospital.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Yes, because that's a.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Lot of money that he I don't know how much
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: money he's sent to that one.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Probably least probably a billion dollars of the years.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: How much money, And I don't know what his motive
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: was for doing that.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: And this questions for everybody, by the way, at a
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: two to one WTV, and I want to know if
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: right now, this moment in time, if you had money
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: donated to you by the Wexners in any capacity, would
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: you be returning it?
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: Go ahead with the hospital?
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: How much of that money has helped people, hired people
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: and all that, or helped in R and D. Who
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: knows how much that's helped. Now, if you're a politician
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: that got five hundred bucks or something, that's one thing.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: But I mean.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: I highly doubt your net worth was dependent on Wexner's money.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I'd probably I donate it to something like
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: a charity or whatnot.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: But that's just me, okay. And then let's see that's
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: interesting deliver it because taking this the philosophical point away
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: from this person and those people that received and money,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: think about it in all kinds of ways, all the
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: ways that perhaps we benefit from people with whom we
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: might completely disagree, we might find them vile. All in
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the family. Way back in nineteen seventy four, I think
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: it was maybe seventy five, when Archie Archie was in
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: the hospital. They had to give him a blood transfusion,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and he had.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: They had to get it from a black Hey had
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: to get it.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: From a black woman. Its gonna be okay, and now,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: mister Banca, except afterward, you've gotta have a strange craven
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: for watermelon. That was the punchline of the joke, and Archie,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: being the the racially insensitive person that he was, got
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: that confused bunker look on his face before they went
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: to commercial. But what if what if you white person
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: who has a problem with black people gotta needed a
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: heart donated and found out that your heart came from
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: not just even a black person, a Black Lives Matter activist,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: that was the heart that you got. Would you want
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: him to take it out? Yeah?
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: I think the racism might end there.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Well, dear, yeah, I think so. I think.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: So.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: What about a black person and your kid is in
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: trouble and desperately needs a blood transfusion to type of
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: blood that, oh my gosh, nobody except Hey, there is
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: this one former clansman down the hall that can give
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: her the blood right now. But he's a former clan
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Would you take the blood? See, people can get on
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: their high horse real easy, real easy, and tell you, oh, yeah,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: you ought to give it back, you ought to give
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: it back, you ought to give it back. But would
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: you Is there a line at which it's acceptable, it's
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: okay for you to accept something from somebody that you
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: absolutely cannot stand. You despise their existence, but their donation,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: their contribution to you, did something to improve your life. See,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I think everybody's really the high horse judgmental right now.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: And I'm not saying trust me, I'm not saying Les
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Wexner is, you know, pristine and clean and hasn't done anything.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know. That's what the process is here, for
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: that's how things work. Just as we've been speaking a
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: lot about the Whitehall councilman, there is a process. They've
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: tried to throw him off two and a half times.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I say two and a half because the third time
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: they just adjourned the meeting because they couldn't even get
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: to the point where they.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: Voted on it, so they had to stop it.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, he just kept on going to Finally, the council
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: president goes meetings adjourned. He's been convicted of nothing. Some
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: tongues are wagging and saying he did some things, but
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: we have yet to see any evidence. We have yet
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: to see a formal indictment, we have yet to see
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: a grand jury. But they wont him off council. Well,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Wexner knew Epstein, and Epstein was a fundraiser for this
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: and that, and he controlled. That doesn't necessarily indicate anything
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: except for the fact that they knew each other. How
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: many times have you known somebody said I can't believe
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: he did it, And that's getting more and more frequent.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's the next door neighbor, Maybe it's one of
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: the teachers at school, Maybe it's a maybe it's somebody
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: in the media gets in trouble for doing disgusting, dastardly things,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: and you always I thought they were so nice. Just
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: because someone lived next to you, worked with you, was
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: part of your life in some way, shape or for him,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: somebody took a picture of you with them, does not
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: mean that you were part of the foul, disgusting, vile
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: little circle that was their life. Buddy's on that high horse.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: And no, I'm not defending Andy Ginther. I don't want
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: anybody to think that, because see, I don't think his
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: his position has nothing to do with what I'm saying.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: He's not given that back. It doesn't matter. He's taking
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: it right from Epstein.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: But everyone else who is doing this And I told
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Mark earlier, Joyce BA eighty said that she's donated hers
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: already in charity, some charity. I don't know what charity
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: it was, but donated. I hope it was some kind
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: of you know, child trafficking, sexual abuse charity or something
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: like that. But honestly, all the politicians, all the elected
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: officials who are allegedly accountable to the people who have said, yes,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: we donated those I'd like to see those records. I'd
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: like to see where those donations have been made. I'd
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: like to see where those donations have already been made.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: If you said you did it, then either show me
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: you did it or prove that you're a liar one
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: or the other. But I don't know in their position
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: right now, if I would be saying, yes, I'm returning
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: the money until I know whether or not I got
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: that money from someone who was tainted by a foul
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in vile life, or maybe that's just me. You're welcome
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to disagree. That's how I am debate, discussion, disagreement with respect.
• 7:20

  Speaker 5: Wall Street people around. Uh, but UH drove I share celebrities. Well,
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: one guy I didn't have a celebrity after the fact, Uh,
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: Andrew mister Epstein. I believe four times, maybe five times.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: But anyway, I think what kind of playing he pulling?
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: The private playing? The implement was a hawker. I picked
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: up aviation. And where do you think I took him to?
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: I took him to mister Western's mansion out there in
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: New Albany. And that's so I took him every time,
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: and yeahs at least four times, maybe more anyway, And uh,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: I'd go out there and i'd I'd sit out there
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: in the in the courtyard out there, and I sat
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: there for hours, you know, three or four or five hours.
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: And sometimes the you know, the butler would offer me
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: a drink or something, ask me, I need a bathom
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: Usually I said it by myself, after why get wave
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: go go, uh go get a pop or something. But anyway, uh,
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: I took him there a lot of times, and I
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: was sitting up there for hours and hours and hours.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: And I have no idea what they did.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I do know this.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: Anybody who's been in the entertainment business as service, and
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: I guess service insured I would say, would know that
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: mister Westerner had a totally different lifestyle back in the
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: eighties than he has than he has now. And I'll
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: use one word and give what everyone. I have no
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: I you know I have no I'm gonna judge anybody.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: I'll use one word. He was a flamer. It was
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: very well known and I don't know what him and
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: mister Epstein did. But anyway, that's an inside dope. Do
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: what you want with it now. Hope nobody put the hit.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: Out on me.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, my friend. I you know, there
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: have been producers and anybody who's notable, there are stories
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: about them. That's that's that is life. There's always going
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: to be somebody whispering something about somebody. But again, if
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: there's if there's nothing illegal about what you are doing,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: then man's law has not been violated, and and if
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: their higher laws have been violated, that's not for a
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: to handle. That's not for you to handle. That's just
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: where I am right now. Two WTV and Frankie on
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the Legacy Retirement Groove dot Com phone lines.
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: How are you good, Chuck? How about you?
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I'm doing okay so far.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: So you know, innocent until proven guilty. I think everybody
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: deserves that. You know, we're in America. But real quick
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: about the transfusion thing. I used to work with a
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: guy who was at Jehovah's witness and he had a
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: pretty bad motorcycle accident and it was life threatening and
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: the only reason we survived is because a nurse was
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: right behind him and stopped the bleeding long enough to
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: get him to the hospital. I guess they don't believe
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: in transfusions. I went to go see the guy. He
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: was ghostly white, and they said, yeah, he's he won't
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: take anybody else's blood. Yeah, we're giving him stuff to
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: help him rebuild. And oh my goodness, the guy was
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: just clinging to life while his body rebuilt. His blood
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: was something.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Yep, that is that is one of one of their beliefs. Apparently,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you, Frank, thanks very much. It was actually
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: cost a family friend. When I was a kid, there
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: was a guy that my family knew and he used
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: to come over all the time and Mom would give
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: him a couple of bucks for the what do you
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: call it? The watch Tower and they had the other
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: little magazine paper thingy oh, I can't remember the name
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: of it, but you know, he would come by when
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: they published those, and that was like a fundraiser for
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: the church. And just because of the family friendship, she
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: would give that. Well, Mom had a brain tumor and
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: she ended up out that what was Saint Anthony Hospital
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: back then at SOSU East. Now, she was in surgery
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: for eleven and a half hours and she was terrified, terrified.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: She had lost the ability to uh to walk and
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: UH couldn't feel her it was it was terrible, couldn't
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: feel her hands or anything. And this this family friend
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: came the night before the surgery and now then he
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: told her, you know, she can't accept any blood transfusions
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: and what they believed would happen if she did. And
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I rarely saw Dad lose his temper like he did
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: that night, but he was very, very upset. You don't
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: go into somebody who's not even of your faith and
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: hit them with something like that the night before somebody's
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: about to cut into their head. If that's what you
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: want to believe, that's what you want to believe. But yeah,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: that was very inappropriate. And even I've eleven years old
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: knew that. So I don't know where that story came from.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: You brought it up, So I finished it A two
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: nine eighty six, a two WTV. And would you get
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: back the money? Would you give back the money. I
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: don't know that I would, at least not yet. At
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: least not yet. Les Wesner's money and name are all
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: over Central Ohio, and until something farius has been proven,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think it's incumbent upon people to return
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: those funds
