2:32
Speaker 4: as of Lady's been doing this series, which I think
2:35
Speaker 4: is fascinating, just interviewing some random people on the streets
2:40
Speaker 4: of Charleston. Sometimes everyday people, in my mind, are much
2:44
Speaker 4: more interesting than any politician, athlete, celebrity whatever. We're talking

Speaker 4: three zero four nine three five five zero zero. Wait,
3:01
Speaker 4: the struggles of the Saint Alban's High football team, not
3:04
Speaker 4: just on the field over the last several years, but
3:07
Speaker 4: getting to the field. They have a new coach that
3:10
Speaker 4: hopes to turn the whole thing around. He's Dan Brown,
3:12
Speaker 4: he joins this morning being the Guarantee Bank Hotline coach.
3:15
Speaker 4: Good morning, welcome to the show.
3:17
Speaker 5: Good morning.
3:17
Speaker 4: How are you. I'm doing fine, Thank you for being here.
3:20
Speaker 4: So the the numbers have been down as far as
3:23
Speaker 4: participation goes at Saint Alban's High School over the last
3:26
Speaker 4: several years. And I know you're the new guy around here,
3:28
Speaker 4: but what has the issue been over the years?
3:33
Speaker 1: Really?
3:33
Speaker 5: I think the biggest issue is, you know the wins
3:37
Speaker 5: and lost column. You know, kid want to be part
3:39
Speaker 5: of winning program. They want to be successful. I mean,
3:42
Speaker 5: everybody wants to be part of something successful. Yeah, so
3:44
Speaker 5: success is the biggest you know, it's the biggest driver
3:49
Speaker 5: that I can see.
3:50
Speaker 4: And it's been a culture. And I mean this with
3:52
Speaker 4: all due respect coaching to the other coaches that have
3:55
Speaker 4: been there, some of whom I've known very well, and
3:58
Speaker 4: on some of the players, it's not been a culture
4:01
Speaker 4: of winning. There with the football program in Saint albans
4:05
Speaker 4: uh uh in quite a.
4:07
Speaker 5: Long time, right, And that's one thing that we're wanting
4:10
Speaker 5: to change really quickly, is we want to change the
4:13
Speaker 5: culture of you know, an individuality culture. We want to
4:17
Speaker 5: change it to you know, we're a family. We want
4:20
Speaker 5: to be I want my guys to feel like they're
4:22
Speaker 5: part of something that's bigger than themselves, and we want
4:25
Speaker 5: them to feel like they're part of my family.
4:27
Speaker 4: I just wonder, though, what are your plans to go about.
4:30
Speaker 4: I know you're going to have a meeting tomorrow and
4:31
Speaker 4: I try to get the community involved. We'll talk about
4:33
Speaker 4: that a little bit later on, but uh, you know what,
4:37
Speaker 4: how do you go about imparting that message to the
4:40
Speaker 4: members of the football team that perspective members of the
4:42
Speaker 4: football team, coach? And how do you get more people
4:43
Speaker 4: to want to be a part of the team.
4:45
Speaker 5: The agny thing is I feel like kids just want
4:48
Speaker 5: to be treated with respect. We treat every kid with
4:51
Speaker 5: the same amount of respect that I would expect them
4:53
Speaker 5: to treat me with. I treat them like they're my family.
4:57
Speaker 5: I treat them like they're my sons. I've been doing
5:00
Speaker 5: for a while and I think that's the biggest thing,
5:02
Speaker 5: is building that relationship with those kids and making them
5:05
Speaker 5: feel like, you know, I care more about them as
5:08
Speaker 5: a person than as a football player. And that's true,
5:10
Speaker 5: I really do. I mean, football is one of the
5:12
Speaker 5: best things that's ever happened to me. But being able
5:15
Speaker 5: to really connect with the kid and get to their
5:18
Speaker 5: level and you know, take an interest in who they
5:21
Speaker 5: are is one of the biggest things I think for
5:24
Speaker 5: a kid and showing them, you know, that mutual respect, you.
5:28
Speaker 4: Know, maybe you try to impart up on them. What
5:31
Speaker 4: led you to the job because I said, you're this
5:35
Speaker 4: is your first year as.
5:36
Speaker 5: A coach, right, that's my first head coaching job, Frive.
5:39
Speaker 4: Well, your first head coaching job. Here at saying yeah.
5:41
Speaker 4: And so there was something obviously that you saw coach
5:45
Speaker 4: with this community. Everybody can look up the records online
5:49
Speaker 4: or wherever, and you know what the records are. But
5:51
Speaker 4: there was something about this community, this program that led
5:55
Speaker 4: you to want to coach.
5:56
Speaker 5: Here's me.
5:57
Speaker 4: It's tough, man.
5:59
Speaker 5: You walk around the streets, you walk through the school,
6:02
Speaker 5: you walk I mean, you look at the baseball team,
6:04
Speaker 5: you look at the basketball team, you look at the
6:06
Speaker 5: lacrosse team, the soccer team. There's tough kids here and
6:10
Speaker 5: for us to win ball games, we got to have
6:12
Speaker 5: tough kids. And I really really like when I took
6:16
Speaker 5: the job and talked to a lot of people, everybody
6:18
Speaker 5: kept using the word, you know, we're tough. We have
6:22
Speaker 5: some tough kids, and that's that's what you need to
6:24
Speaker 5: win football games.
6:25
Speaker 4: And you're going to have a meeting tomorrow night at
6:28
Speaker 4: the high school at six o'clock. And this is not
6:30
Speaker 4: just for you know, players or whatever. You're trying to
6:32
Speaker 4: get the community of Saint Albans re engaged.
6:35
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, we're trying to get We're trying to get
6:38
Speaker 5: the community more involved within the football program. Obviously to
6:44
Speaker 5: keep you know, keep people in the stands. We would
6:46
Speaker 5: I would love to have a rambunctious crowd every Friday night.
6:49
Speaker 5: But uh, more than anything, it's keeping everybody engaged and
6:53
Speaker 5: you know, supporting our kids and supporting the program, not
6:56
Speaker 5: just monetarily, but I mean just being there for you know,
6:59
Speaker 5: a kid and being there for a program.
7:02
Speaker 4: So again we're talking with coach Dan Brown at Saint Albans.
7:05
Speaker 4: The Red Dragon's trying to field a team this year
7:06
Speaker 4: of a Day Island show on five eighty Live, brought
7:08
Speaker 4: to you in part by Pinnacle Consultants. When environmental questions
7:11
Speaker 4: come up at a building, Pinnacle provides clear answer, specializing
7:14
Speaker 4: in as best as led mold into air quality issues
7:17

7:19
Speaker 4: Learn more at Pinnacle Corp dot net. Helping you understand
7:22
Speaker 4: your environment because what you don't know can't hurt you.
7:24
Speaker 4: And I think that's very important coach, because any winning
7:27
Speaker 4: program has got to win over the community as well,
7:31
Speaker 4: because nobody, none of these kids want to go out
7:34
Speaker 4: and play in front of an empty stadium on Friday
7:36
Speaker 4: night at seven thirty.
7:37
Speaker 5: As you mentioned, right, like, the biggest thing for me,
7:41
Speaker 5: you know, being a coach and being a player was
7:44
Speaker 5: there's nothing like Friday night. I mean, you can't you
7:47
Speaker 5: can't emulate that with any other sport. You can't emulate
7:50
Speaker 5: that throughout your life. There's I mean, there's a very
7:52
Speaker 5: few times in your life where you get that rush
7:56
Speaker 5: of walking onto a field on Friday knights with your
7:59
Speaker 5: whole community behind. I mean, there's nothing that can replicate that.
8:03
Speaker 2: Uh.
8:04
Speaker 4: I think that it's I think it's that you're exactly
8:07
Speaker 4: right about that. You know, UH and UH. And it's
8:10
Speaker 4: an interesting story too, because we hear a lot about
8:14
Speaker 4: other schools UH not having enough players to field a team.
8:19
Speaker 3: UH.
8:19
Speaker 4: I did a story last week, and I'm sure you're
8:21
Speaker 4: familiar with the program with Van Bulldogs down in Boone County.
8:24
Speaker 4: They weren't able to field a team. I talked to
8:26
Speaker 4: their coach, Margaret Goasti on the Midday show last week.
8:28
Speaker 4: They're hoping to be able to field the team this year.
8:30
Speaker 4: But this is a totally different situation because you know,
8:34
Speaker 4: Sat Habits is a big school, this is a Triple
8:37
Speaker 4: A school. We're talking about Van. I understand this is
8:39
Speaker 4: I think a seven through twelve school that's you know,
8:42
Speaker 4: struggling to stay open. To be honest with you, but
8:44
Speaker 4: this is not the case. It's Saint Albans and you
8:46
Speaker 4: and you. You pointed to the other successes that they've had,
8:50
Speaker 4: they little cross team and the in the in the
8:52
Speaker 4: basketball and softball, They've they've had a lot of successes
8:55
Speaker 4: in other uh, in other areas, coach, but just not
8:57
Speaker 4: in football. So this is kind of unique to me.
9:00
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's it's been a struggle. I mean, obviously
9:04
Speaker 5: we got the talent, we have the kids. It's just
9:07
Speaker 5: getting everything put together. I mean, the community's there, the
9:10
Speaker 5: kids are there, the administration's there, everything's there. Now we
9:14
Speaker 5: just got to, you know, wrangle everything together and put
9:17
Speaker 5: it in one direction when we have to. That's one
9:20
Speaker 5: thing that we're going to try to do is make
9:23
Speaker 5: sure everybody is going in the same direction.
9:26
Speaker 4: Well, we certainly wish you well. You know, I've got
9:29
Speaker 4: a little ties to this program. When I was working
9:31
Speaker 4: at another company in Charleston, we did the games on
9:33
Speaker 4: the radio and this was under coach Scott Tinsley, Delate
9:36
Speaker 4: Scott Tinsley and Nick Watson. There's been some quality folks
9:39
Speaker 4: to come through there, and I know others have tried
9:41
Speaker 4: to turn it around. And we certainly wish you, you know,
9:44
Speaker 4: the best of luck in this. And I hope that
9:46
Speaker 4: the community buys into this, and I hope the kids
9:48
Speaker 4: buy into it, and we we can, you know, kind
9:51
Speaker 4: of kind of return this program to what that school deserves.
9:54
Speaker 4: This meeting is going to be tomorrow night at six
9:56
Speaker 4: at the auditorium a say in Alberts High School, and
9:58
Speaker 4: it's open to the community. This is a community meeting.
10:00
Speaker 4: We'll give you an opportunity to try to to impart
10:04
Speaker 4: upon the community this time. Coach, why they should attend
10:07
Speaker 4: this meeting, why they need to get behind this program.
10:11
Speaker 5: We really just want our community to be involved. I've
10:16
Speaker 5: been around football for most of my life, and for
10:21
Speaker 5: a program or a school to be successful, you've got
10:25
Speaker 5: to have community support, either monetarily or through actually showing
10:29
Speaker 5: up to things that the kids are doing, whether it's
10:32
Speaker 5: the car was are we're playing in a weightlift upon
10:37
Speaker 5: next year.
10:38
Speaker 4: Showing up to that.
10:40
Speaker 5: Just showing up for our kids, that's the big thing.
10:42
Speaker 5: And showing these kids that they're supported and that we
10:45
Speaker 5: care about them. If you go to any other football
10:47
Speaker 5: football community, that's what happens.
10:50
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, yeah, and I understand that you know
10:52
Speaker 4: all about that, but I do want to ask you, like, so,
10:55
Speaker 4: where are we now on the upcoming season. That's a
10:57
Speaker 4: very important question I think needs to be asked. Where
10:59
Speaker 4: are we? I mean I heard on the radio report
11:01
Speaker 4: this morning on Daniel Wood Sports that you've got practice
11:04
Speaker 4: playing today. Where are what's the status of the team
11:06
Speaker 4: right now? The numbers and whatnot.
11:09
Speaker 5: We've had so in the off season, so running January
11:13
Speaker 5: till in the middle of June, we had thirty eight
11:16
Speaker 5: kids come through our door. So I gave about thirty
11:19
Speaker 5: sets thirty eight sets of practice year. Getting kids consistently
11:24
Speaker 5: to show up is the biggest thing is you know,
11:26
Speaker 5: consistency is going to.
11:27
Speaker 6: Win this thing.
11:30
Speaker 5: But had our last flex practice, we had twenty kids there.
11:36
Speaker 5: We were seven, we had seven on seven with Poka
11:39
Speaker 5: and we had twenty kids soup, so it was it
11:42
Speaker 5: was fun day. Right now, just hoping we have a
11:46
Speaker 5: good turnout this evening and tomorrow and the rest of
11:48
Speaker 5: the rest of the July.
11:49
Speaker 4: All right, well, coach, we wish you the best of luck.
11:51
Speaker 4: And again I'm kind of even though I'm not really
11:54
Speaker 4: connected to the school, I still am, you know when
11:56
Speaker 4: I was a part of the program years ago, and
11:59
Speaker 4: we wish you the best of luck with everything. We
12:01
Speaker 4: can do anything to help out. Man, Just let us
12:03
Speaker 4: know that. Meetings tomorrow and I at six in the
12:04
Speaker 4: auditory of Saint Albans High schoo appreciated coach, good luck to.
12:07
Speaker 5: You, appreciates you, Thank you so much.
12:09
Speaker 1: You all have a great day you as well.
12:10
Speaker 4: It is nine twenty. Yeah, I just like I said,
12:12
Speaker 4: I it's just unfathomable to me to have a school
12:16
Speaker 4: the size of Saint Albans Triple A school. I mean,
12:18
Speaker 4: you understand some of these smaller schools, but not Saint Albans.
12:22
Speaker 4: And they've had the you know, it's been a long
12:24
Speaker 4: time since they've had and they've had some good quality
12:27
Speaker 4: coaches and good quality players that have come through there.
12:29
Speaker 4: But for one reason or another. And I don't know
12:31
Speaker 4: what it is. If I if I knew, I would
12:33
Speaker 4: be you know, on the on the YouTube coaches circuit
12:38
Speaker 4: or something. You know, it's instructing other schools on how
12:40
Speaker 4: to do it. I'm not an expert at this, uh,
12:42
Speaker 4: but I wish them the best. I mean, I really
12:45
Speaker 4: really do. I think the high school deserves it, and
12:48
Speaker 4: I think that the people of Saint Albans deserve it
12:50
Speaker 4: as well. It is nine twenty. You want to remind

17:11
Speaker 4: Jay Construction City is Good morning, sir, welcome to the show.
17:14
Speaker 9: More than Dave'm glad to be here.
17:16
Speaker 4: So we've spruced up the place a little since you
17:18
Speaker 4: were here last time. It's pretty I mean wow, I mean, yeah,
17:22
Speaker 4: we're gonna mess around and have a radio station here
17:24
Speaker 4: if we're not careful. I mean, that's what I think
17:27
Speaker 4: is going to happen here. You know, I think I
17:30
Speaker 4: speak on a half bill of a lot of a
17:32
Speaker 4: lot of your readers. You know, you're you're you're a
17:34
Speaker 4: fantastic writer, and you have done all sorts of great
17:36
Speaker 4: stories over the year. But what you've been doing lately,
17:39
Speaker 4: this is why I reached out to you, is very
17:40
Speaker 4: interesting to me. Just randomly interviewing people on the streets
17:46
Speaker 4: of Charleston. Where did you get this idea? Why did
17:49
Speaker 4: it appeal to you? Well?
17:50
Speaker 9: Years ago? The column is very me centric, right. It
17:55
Speaker 9: starts a lot of things, you know, involving my process
17:58
Speaker 9: or something I'm interested in you know, and I have
18:01
Speaker 9: a wide range of things I don't know much about,
18:03
Speaker 9: so you know, if I was interested in learning how
18:04
Speaker 9: to bake a pie or learning to to do something
18:08
Speaker 9: with the symphony or get in shape or whatever. So
18:11
Speaker 9: it was always very very mean me. But I'm always
18:13
Speaker 9: curious about other people. But you know, walking up to
18:17
Speaker 9: just random people and saying, hey, why are you doing this?
18:20
Speaker 9: Why no one really does that. So I thought about
18:23
Speaker 9: it and kicked it around for years, and then you know,
18:26
Speaker 9: last month, as usual, I was like, you know, looking
18:29
Speaker 9: for something at the last minute, and it was on
18:32
Speaker 9: my list of things to do, and it had been
18:33
Speaker 9: on my list a couple of times, and I said, well,
18:36
Speaker 9: it has to be easier than camping. So I said,
18:39
Speaker 9: I'll just dive in. And I didn't know what was
18:41
Speaker 9: going to happen. I wasn't sure whether you know, someone's
18:44
Speaker 9: going to tell me to you know, get out of here,
18:47
Speaker 9: or you know, get You never know what you're going
18:48
Speaker 9: to get. You know, you asked you. I mean, you
18:50
Speaker 9: walk up to somebody, they could I mean, they could
18:52
Speaker 9: really kind of go off on you. And I've seen
18:54
Speaker 9: that happen in weird places. But I just thought we
18:56
Speaker 9: could just give it a try, and even if if
18:58
Speaker 9: people tell me no and go away, it's still kind
19:01
Speaker 9: of a story. But so far, nobody's doing that. So,
19:05
Speaker 9: you know, I walk up somebody had to see randomly, Really,
19:09
Speaker 9: this is.
19:10
Speaker 4: So much somewhere like the streets to Charleston pretty much.
19:12
Speaker 9: Yeah, I've I've had conversations with people catching out from
19:16
Speaker 9: you know, getting out from the rain and being under
19:18
Speaker 9: an awning, and then it's looking over and saying, so
19:20
Speaker 9: I'm with the newspaper and I'm doing this thing. What's
19:23
Speaker 9: your name? And then we just talked for ten minutes
19:25
Speaker 9: while I was raining, or you know, this past weekend,
19:28
Speaker 9: I was at Capital Market. I just finished running. I've
19:31
Speaker 9: been training for the Charleston Distance Run again. So I
19:34
Speaker 9: had run eight miles and was tired and wanted something
19:37
Speaker 9: to eat, and so I talked to a baker and
19:40
Speaker 9: sat down and we had like a twenty five minute
19:42
Speaker 9: conversation about her. So it's been a lot all of
19:45
Speaker 9: those things just kind of random. You see something that
19:47
Speaker 9: doesn't that's out of the blue. You know, someone who's
19:49
Speaker 9: who's working when everyone else is playing, someone who's playing
19:52
Speaker 9: with someone else everyone else is working. Just random stuff,
19:56
Speaker 9: and the stories that I've been getting are pretty decent.
19:59
Speaker 9: People are going to give me a real insight into
20:01
Speaker 9: their lives.
20:02
Speaker 4: Tell us the listeners that maybe haven't read these some
20:06
Speaker 4: of the ones that you've had. I mean, because you've
20:07
Speaker 4: talked to people that weren't from Charleston but ended up
20:10
Speaker 4: in Charleston for one reason or another. He talked to
20:12
Speaker 4: one gentleman who was a little interesting. You know, that
20:16
Speaker 4: could have been a little threatening to some people, you know,
20:19
Speaker 4: But I mean, I'm just based on what I read. Sure,
20:21
Speaker 4: so just tell us some of the stories.
20:23
Speaker 5: Sure.
20:23
Speaker 9: I spoke to one man. He was an older guy
20:26
Speaker 9: who was at the market. He was just sitting there,
20:28
Speaker 9: had his He was an older guy who had earbuds
20:30
Speaker 9: on and he was just kind of jamming along. Was
20:32
Speaker 9: like that seemed kind of odd to see a guy
20:34
Speaker 9: who seventies eighties and he's like kind of into the music,
20:38
Speaker 9: and he was listening to Traveling Woolbury's. So he and
20:40
Speaker 9: I have a talking points for that. By the way,
20:42
Speaker 9: I love you know, he's like handle with care and
20:44
Speaker 9: I'm like, I know the song, but you know, he
20:47
Speaker 9: tells me, you know, about his career and his life
20:50
Speaker 9: in Charleston, and you know, things are are kind of okay,
20:53
Speaker 9: so what But then he tells me he's adopted, right,
20:56
Speaker 9: that he was adopted when he was eight years old,
20:58
Speaker 9: but he doesn't doesn't remember where he was from, and
21:02
Speaker 9: I thought, hang on, so, you know, he might have
21:05
Speaker 9: been from Detroit, he might have been from Ohio. But
21:09
Speaker 9: you know, I can recall all the places I lived
21:11
Speaker 9: before before I was eight. I lived in Virginia, I
21:14
Speaker 9: was in North Carolina, and my dad was in the military,
21:16
Speaker 9: so we moved around a little bit. But he didn't remember,
21:18
Speaker 9: which to me indicates there was a big thing that happened.
21:22
Speaker 4: That's exactly what to play amateur psychology is gonna. I
21:25
Speaker 4: was my first thought, Bill was there's some kind of
21:27
Speaker 4: trauma here, just saying but.
21:29
Speaker 9: You know, but you kind of can piece together bits
21:32
Speaker 9: and pieces of his life. So you know, at eight
21:34
Speaker 9: years old, he gets adopted by the principal of an
21:37
Speaker 9: elementary school, and so his career he was a school psychologist.
21:43
Speaker 9: He worked in the local school system, so he was
21:45
Speaker 9: interested in helping children, you know, in a school setting.
21:49
Speaker 9: So those pieces kind of come together, and I don't
21:52
Speaker 9: like put those down. So this is why this but
21:54
Speaker 9: you know, you hear his story and you can kind
21:56
Speaker 9: of see where those pieces are coming from. You know,
22:00
Speaker 9: all kinds of people. I haven't posted it, like, not
22:04
Speaker 9: every person I've talked to so far has made it
22:06
Speaker 9: in print, and not all stories are necessarily truthful ones,
22:11
Speaker 9: and some of those are kind of interesting. I met
22:13
Speaker 9: a man who told me that he was from Saudi Arabia,
22:16
Speaker 9: and we talked for ten minutes about, you know, his
22:18
Speaker 9: plans to go back to Saudi Arabia, that he grew
22:20
Speaker 9: up in Beckley and he was here and he was
22:22
Speaker 9: kind of waiting for his passport to get kind of
22:24
Speaker 9: straightened out. But I'm pretty sure he was homeless, right.
22:30
Speaker 9: You know, There's just been a lot of interesting odd
22:33
Speaker 9: pieces to it, and I look forward to every person
22:36
Speaker 9: I keep kind of coming across.
22:38
Speaker 4: So when you go up to these people, Bill and
22:40
Speaker 4: like you said, you told the story of the one
22:42
Speaker 4: who was everybody's trying to take shelter because of a
22:44
Speaker 4: rainstorm anan under the awning. What you just that's literally
22:48
Speaker 4: what you say is say, I'm from the newspaper and
22:51
Speaker 4: I'd like to talk to you a minute. I mean,
22:53
Speaker 4: what are some of the nah I'm not going to
22:55
Speaker 4: do this interactions.
22:56
Speaker 9: Like well, there haven't bet anybody who said no, okay,
22:59
Speaker 9: nobody said.
23:00
Speaker 4: People love to talk about themselves.
23:01
Speaker 7: They do that.
23:03
Speaker 9: You are your favor most favorite subject, yes, right, yeah,
23:06
Speaker 9: every every time. Sometimes it takes him a second to
23:09
Speaker 9: kind of kind of build up to where they want
23:11
Speaker 9: to talk about something that's that's needy. But you know,
23:14
Speaker 9: mostly like okay, the guy with the awning, I was
23:16
Speaker 9: standing out in the rain and he says, come on over,
23:18
Speaker 9: I don't bite, and I'm like okay. So then we
23:22
Speaker 9: strike up the conversation and you know, I said, I'm Bill,
23:25
Speaker 9: and he goes, I'm Jim. And he's sitting there and
23:27
Speaker 9: where he's in a wheelchair, and you know, we're just
23:30
Speaker 9: kind of talking for a second, and I say, oh, well,
23:32
Speaker 9: since i'm here, hi, I'm with, I'm Bill Inch, I'm
23:35
Speaker 9: with the newspaper. And he said, I we'll hold that
23:37
Speaker 9: against you. And and that point that's when he starts
23:40
Speaker 9: telling me about, you know, where he's from, and I'm thinking, okay,
23:43
Speaker 9: I'm going to be talking to someone who is who's
23:45
Speaker 9: on the streets. But he never said that, right, He
23:49
Speaker 9: was always saying that he was from someplace else and
23:52
Speaker 9: that he was only here for a little while and
23:54
Speaker 9: he was going back. But then, you know, a couple
23:56
Speaker 9: of days later, where do I see him, same basic spot,
24:00
Speaker 9: the same kind of thing. I don't. I mean, could
24:02
Speaker 9: be that he's from Saudi Arabia. It's always possible, but
24:05
Speaker 9: I don't think so.
24:06
Speaker 4: Yeah.
24:06
Speaker 9: So there's been a couple of cases like that. But
24:09
Speaker 9: you know, usually it's just walk down the street, someone's
24:12
Speaker 9: sitting there, or I, you know, happen to be standing
24:15
Speaker 9: in a in a in a hallway and someone is
24:17
Speaker 9: standing next to me for more than five minutes and
24:20
Speaker 9: then there comes a story.
24:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's I've talked to Bill Lynch again from HD
24:24
Speaker 4: Media and the Gazette Mail about this series. What do
24:27
Speaker 4: you call in it? Does it have a name? I mean,
24:28
Speaker 4: I've read it every week, but have you call it anything?
24:30
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, it's it's it's all part of my column,
24:32
Speaker 9: which is called one Month at a Time. So and
24:35
Speaker 9: the whole thing is just yeah, this month is just
24:37
Speaker 9: meeting strangers now something or maybe a preview what's coming
24:42
Speaker 9: interestingly with with the with the column has happened in
24:44
Speaker 9: the past. Sometimes things kind of fall in my lap
24:47
Speaker 9: that are related I have my own little teeny tiny
24:51
Speaker 9: radio show that I do like Saturday nights for public broadcasting.
24:54
Speaker 9: It's just music show called lost Ayleways. I have some
24:57
Speaker 9: interesting listeners. I've been on the air for a while
25:00
Speaker 9: to do Americana, Indie rock and stuff like that. So
25:03
Speaker 9: I got a letter. Now, you know, in most cases feedback.
25:07
Speaker 9: You know, I don't know what your feedback is, Like, yeah,
25:09
Speaker 9: you probably get stuff on Facebook, and probably me not
25:13
Speaker 9: so much. Right, So I make a joke about it, like,
25:15
Speaker 9: you know, you can contact me here, you can find
25:17
Speaker 9: me on Facebook. You can send me a letter, but
25:19
Speaker 9: you're not gonna send me a letter because nobody sends
25:21
Speaker 9: anybody letters anymore.
25:22
Speaker 4: I got a letter.
25:24
Speaker 9: It's from Keener Mountain Correctional Center.
25:27
Speaker 4: Okay.
25:27
Speaker 9: I love getting letters from prisoners. I get one like
25:30
Speaker 9: every two years or so. So a stranger, but I
25:33
Speaker 9: get to hear about his life and what happened to him.
25:36
Speaker 9: And I checked it out because you can find out
25:38
Speaker 9: what they did. So a stranger, stranger reaching out and
25:41
Speaker 9: telling me part of his story, which in this case
25:44
Speaker 9: involved quite a few hallucinogens being sold in about forty
25:49
Speaker 9: one thousand dollars in cash he's got another sixteen months
25:53
Speaker 9: to go on his sentence.
25:54
Speaker 4: But so, how does somebody in this correctional facility find
25:57
Speaker 4: out about your your radio show? He heard me, okay,
26:01
Speaker 4: I mean just randomly.
26:02
Speaker 9: It was just like, I guess, I guess, I guess
26:04
Speaker 9: I'm I guess, I guess my radio program is approved
26:08
Speaker 9: on a list or whatever. So he I guess he
26:10
Speaker 9: has access to a radio at eight o'clock on was
26:13
Speaker 9: it Friday? I should notice I pre record, so at
26:15
Speaker 9: eight o'clock on a Friday night. Yeah, wow, that's interesting.
26:19
Speaker 4: I've I actually have a letter hanging above my desk
26:23
Speaker 4: upstairs that I got and I'm not going to call
26:25
Speaker 4: the gentleman out because I appreciate it. He sent me
26:29
Speaker 4: a letter. I'd been doing the show. I've been doing
26:30
Speaker 4: the show for six years and a few months here
26:33
Speaker 4: and and he sent me a letter and talked about
26:36
Speaker 4: how fast I talk, and I said, for the love
26:40
Speaker 4: of and it said something to the effective for the
26:42
Speaker 4: love of God. Dave switched to DCAF. Now, I ain't
26:46
Speaker 4: in the Dale Cooper realm of talking fast, but maybe
26:49
Speaker 4: I do talk too fast, And so I thought, okay,
26:52
Speaker 4: So I took it and I pasted it or taped
26:55
Speaker 4: it above my desk and I look at it every day.
26:57
Speaker 9: Well, I guess the inmate, which is interesting. He sent
27:00
Speaker 9: me some ideas for things I can include on the show.
27:03
Speaker 9: Top Grateful Dead. Really, I bet that was an interesting mix.
27:07
Speaker 9: It was the Grateful Dead, Let's see Massive Attack, Let's see.
27:12
Speaker 9: I did put one on the playlist. Keller Williams. So
27:17
Speaker 9: it's a song called Freaker at the Speaker or something
27:20
Speaker 9: like that. So, you know, it's a lot of jam
27:22
Speaker 9: band stuff, but you know, it kind of makes sense.
27:23
Speaker 9: And also for the time he's been in he's been
27:25
Speaker 9: in for fourteen years.
27:27
Speaker 4: Well, and so that's the kind of stories that you're
27:29
Speaker 4: not necessarily going to get out on the streets, or
27:31
Speaker 4: maybe you will.
27:32
Speaker 9: I don't know.
27:33
Speaker 1: So far, no one, no one is.
27:34
Speaker 9: No one else in the streets has copped to being
27:36
Speaker 9: in prison, but everybody but you know.
27:38
Speaker 4: Yeah, the gavit said he was from Saudi Arabia, and
27:40
Speaker 4: maybe he is.
27:40
Speaker 9: Maybe he is, maybe he I don't know that that
27:43
Speaker 9: southern Coalfield's accent and give.
27:45
Speaker 4: Good that I was going to ask about that. So
27:48
Speaker 4: are you from like the Boone County section of Saudi Arabia,
27:52
Speaker 4: the Saudi Arabia section of Boone County. You know, there
27:54
Speaker 4: was a lot of immigrants that came to West Virginia.
27:56
Speaker 4: I don't usually it was Italian, it was okay, don't know.
27:59
Speaker 4: It was a lot from not a lot in the
28:01
Speaker 4: Middle East. No, no, just not a lot, not yet.
28:04
Speaker 4: So I mean, and you and I were joking off
28:06
Speaker 4: the air, but this, my wife tells me. He said,
28:09
Speaker 4: you would watch the documentary of anybody. And that's usually
28:13
Speaker 4: that's the exciting life that I live. On the weekends,
28:15
Speaker 4: I'm watching somebody's It all started back in the day
28:18
Speaker 4: with v H one behind the Music, and then it
28:21
Speaker 4: went to thirty for thirties on ESPN. I'm a big
28:25
Speaker 4: Southeastern Conference guy. Sec He's storied. I watch. I watch
28:30
Speaker 4: all of the any of just about anybody. But to me,
28:33
Speaker 4: more interesting is getting to know people that are real people,
28:38
Speaker 4: you know, and just say, what is your story. You
28:40
Speaker 4: may not have won the Heisman Trophy, you may not
28:42
Speaker 4: have won a Grammy Award, but damn you've got a
28:44
Speaker 4: You've got a good story.
28:46
Speaker 5: Yeah.
28:46
Speaker 9: Well see, that's the funny thing. So you know, I've
28:50
Speaker 9: been looking for something to keep as a hobby, right,
28:52
Speaker 9: a hobby project. So this will as is nature with
28:55
Speaker 9: you know, with the column one month and that's all
28:57
Speaker 9: I do. But I've got a thing that I picked
29:01
Speaker 9: up two years ago. I don't do anything with it.
29:04
Speaker 9: I'd like to keep doing this, So I'm thinking that,
29:06
Speaker 9: you know, do a pro bon and I'll just go
29:08
Speaker 9: out and I until someone like I don't know it
29:10
Speaker 9: pits me in the head with a hammer or something.
29:12
Speaker 9: But until then, you know, I think this is like
29:15
Speaker 9: a project that is an interest. You know, it's just
29:16
Speaker 9: like kind of like an oral history of people in Charleston.
29:19
Speaker 9: And we'll just do it for a while.
29:20
Speaker 4: And Charleston does have some collect I mean, every place
29:23
Speaker 4: has got to collect the Oh sure, I'm from southern
29:25
Speaker 4: West Virginia, man, so I can't. I can tell you
29:27
Speaker 4: stories all the time, but it is there are a
29:31
Speaker 4: lot of different people in a capital city because people
29:34
Speaker 4: come here for various reasons governmental work or business, and
29:38
Speaker 4: some have a tendency to stay and some adult. And
29:40
Speaker 4: I am used to coming from a small town that
29:43
Speaker 4: when I talk to somebody, I was like, Okay, where
29:45
Speaker 4: are you from. Well, in Logan County there's three areas
29:48
Speaker 4: you're either from logan Man or Chapmanville, right, you know,
29:50
Speaker 4: in the little communities. But when I moved over here,
29:53
Speaker 4: you know, I was surprised. Not everybody's from I live
29:56
Speaker 4: in Tayese Valley. Not everybody's from tays Valley. Actually people
29:59
Speaker 4: actually nobody from Day's Valley that lives. They're from everywhere else.
30:02
Speaker 4: And you to me, people's stories are just interesting how
30:06
Speaker 4: they got there and people watching is one of my
30:08
Speaker 4: all time favorite things to do.
30:10
Speaker 9: Mine too. One thing that so far that it's happened
30:13
Speaker 9: with everyone I've spoken to. I haven't heard anyone really
30:16
Speaker 9: down on Charleston. I was expecting someone to be complaining
30:19
Speaker 9: about you know, you can pick your point. You know
30:22
Speaker 9: the streets are dirty, or you know they're there's homeless people,
30:25
Speaker 9: or you know, jobs are It's so great you catch.
30:28
Speaker 4: People from Regatta that nobody wants to see. That's always
30:31
Speaker 4: my favorite thing.
30:31
Speaker 9: Well, so far, I mean a whole month, and I've
30:34
Speaker 9: talked to twenty people so far. I mean just some
30:37
Speaker 9: of them. You know, I get more out of them
30:39
Speaker 9: than others. But no one has like said so far
30:42
Speaker 9: that they hate being here. You know, people who've been
30:45
Speaker 9: here for forty fifty sixty seventy years. You know, you know,
30:49
Speaker 9: people who would have seen Charleston when it was maybe
30:51
Speaker 9: more populous and there's more things downtown.
30:54
Speaker 1: No so far.
30:56
Speaker 9: I mean, any minute now someone's gonna, you know, gonna
30:59
Speaker 9: maybe break that. But the streak so far is that
31:01
Speaker 9: people like it. And maybe that's because I'm seeing them
31:05
Speaker 9: in places where they're you know, where they're happy to
31:06
Speaker 9: shop at, or seeing them like, you know, near a festival.
31:10
Speaker 9: I caught some folks at the end at the tail
31:12
Speaker 9: end of at regatta. So but so far, everyone that
31:16
Speaker 9: I've spoken to is pretty happy to be here, which
31:19
Speaker 9: surprised me.
31:20
Speaker 4: I'm just kind of interested when you if you're at
31:22
Speaker 4: a place like Capital Market or at the regatta or whatever,
31:26
Speaker 4: and you're standing there and you're looking at in the crowd.
31:28
Speaker 4: Is there something that you see in that guy to
31:31
Speaker 4: think he might have an interesting story? But you look
31:34
Speaker 4: at this lady and say, well, probably not. And I mean,
31:38
Speaker 4: what what's your thought process that makes you approach these
31:41
Speaker 4: people to say that guy has got a good story.
31:44
Speaker 4: This guy doesn't.
31:45
Speaker 9: First off, they don't look like me, right, you know,
31:48
Speaker 9: they're not wearing a comic book T shirt or a
31:51
Speaker 9: you know, a random ball cap. They're not a middle
31:54
Speaker 9: aged white guy. I have tried to avoid those because
31:57
Speaker 9: that's me.
31:57
Speaker 4: Yeah.
31:59
Speaker 9: Other that, you know, people who seem like they're different
32:02
Speaker 9: than than where they're at. You know, I spoke to
32:05
Speaker 9: a woman last weekend. She was African American working on
32:09
Speaker 9: a laptop while everyone else was shopping, and I was like,
32:12
Speaker 9: it's a Saturday afternoon, why are you doing that here?
32:16
Speaker 9: And you know, she gave me a long explanation for
32:18
Speaker 9: where she was from and who she was and it
32:20
Speaker 9: and it was unusual. I didn't expect it. So typically
32:25
Speaker 9: I'm looking for people who don't look like me or
32:28
Speaker 9: seem like people that I would normally hang out with.
32:31
Speaker 9: So I'm definitely definitely looking for things outside of you know,
32:35
Speaker 9: my usual.
32:36
Speaker 4: You know box right. It's fascinating stuff, man. And I
32:40
Speaker 4: reached out to you when I because I you know,
32:42
Speaker 4: I read the I read the first couple one.
32:44
Speaker 9: I always read your.
32:44
Speaker 4: Stuff, but I thought, now this is interesting and different
32:47
Speaker 4: than I've been doing. Yeah, and uh, and I like it.
32:49
Speaker 4: How long are you going to continue doing this?
32:51
Speaker 6: Oh?
32:51
Speaker 9: Like I said, I've got this blog thing that I'm
32:53
Speaker 9: going to like pick up and keep doing, and I think, yeah,
32:56
Speaker 9: the newspapers. I have to move on to something next
32:59
Speaker 9: for you know, for August quickly. But this this one's
33:03
Speaker 9: been fun, and you know, I feel like I'm getting insight.
33:06
Speaker 9: I'm learning things. Not everything I'm learning is like, you know,
33:09
Speaker 9: necessarily useful. You know, I like the folks. I guess
33:12
Speaker 9: I'm talking true that we're in. I guess the paper
33:14
Speaker 9: last weekend. You know, the one guy who who went
33:17
Speaker 9: away from Charleston was dying to get out of here
33:19
Speaker 9: when he was eighteen. He got his got his you know,
33:21
Speaker 9: he's got his basketball scholarship, and he spent like fifty
33:24
Speaker 9: years away from from forty five years away from Charleston.
33:27
Speaker 9: Never wanted to come back, but that he did. And
33:28
Speaker 9: he's like, I love being here. My family's here, my
33:31
Speaker 9: old friends are still here. You know, the you know,
33:34
Speaker 9: the guy who told me about falling in love with
33:36
Speaker 9: his wife when he was in high school and they're
33:39
Speaker 9: still together, and it's and it's the idea of growing together.
33:42
Speaker 9: And I'm I'm thinking, you know, I've been divorced twice,
33:45
Speaker 9: so you know, the the option of me like finding
33:48
Speaker 9: someone when I'm in high school is gone. And you know,
33:52
Speaker 9: I don't think of myself as moving back to Giles County, Virginia,
33:55
Speaker 9: where I grew up. But you know, there's still kind
33:58
Speaker 9: of wisdom in things, even if I don't think that
34:00
Speaker 9: they are applicable to me. So that's really appealing to me.
34:05
Speaker 9: I think that there's something that I'd like to pursue
34:07
Speaker 9: a little while longer in some platform somewhere, so and
34:10
Speaker 9: blog maybe.
34:11
Speaker 4: And they break though in the in the actual newspaper
34:14
Speaker 4: over the weekend editions, right correct. Okay, see, I'm the
34:17
Speaker 4: guy that actually has a hard copy than is God
34:20
Speaker 4: bless you, am I the you know you sound like
34:22
Speaker 4: the late Doug scaff right now. Doug would come into
34:24
Speaker 4: this studio from time to time and I would have
34:26
Speaker 4: a copy of the Gazette Mail on the Wall Street
34:29
Speaker 4: Journal here and he would say, you are single handedly
34:32
Speaker 4: keeping keeping the the hard copies going, and I just
34:37
Speaker 4: I like it. So I don't read your stuff until
34:40
Speaker 4: til Saturday morning when I go out and get my
34:42
Speaker 4: paper on Saturday morning, I don't read it till then.
34:44
Speaker 4: So I mean, I'm so I'm probably available like three
34:46
Speaker 4: days before online.
34:48
Speaker 9: Well not quite that way, but at the same time,
34:50
Speaker 9: you know, I do like a physical copy out. I
34:53
Speaker 9: grew up on them every read the entertainment section every Wednesday,

38:17
Speaker 4: Star Game. I was having this conversation with something somebody earlier.
38:20
Speaker 4: I have always been a big fan of the All
38:22
Speaker 4: Star Game in baseball, especially since I grew up in
38:25
Speaker 4: the nineteen seventies, when you know, basically you didn't have
38:28
Speaker 4: a whole lot of games to choose from, and you
38:30
Speaker 4: didn't get to see players unless it was the World
38:32
Speaker 4: Series or the All Star Game from teams like the
38:36
Speaker 4: Red Sox or the Yankees or whatever. Here's what I
38:39
Speaker 4: don't need. I'm talking about the television coverage. Okay, here's
38:41
Speaker 4: what I don't need to have every player miked up.
38:45
Speaker 4: You know, It's like, I actually just want to watch
38:48
Speaker 4: the game. And I know Wilson told me this morning.
38:51
Speaker 4: We were having this conversation on one of our conference calls.
38:54
Speaker 4: We have and he said, you early are a Yes,
38:56
Speaker 4: I'm an old man. I don't need to hear everybody
38:58
Speaker 4: miked up. Just play the game. But that's just me
39:02
Speaker 4: being mean speaking of sports. On the Saint Albans football story,
39:06
Speaker 4: texts why I throw good money after bad money. The
39:09
Speaker 4: market is spoken on Saint Albans football invested in the
39:11
Speaker 4: other successful sports sports or other boys are more likely
39:15
Speaker 4: to go to college to play baseball, that the boys
39:17
Speaker 4: lift free from CTE and spinal injuries as a text, well,
39:21
Speaker 4: something to be said for that. And I appreciate the text.
39:23
Speaker 4: I just the story ever since I first heard about
39:26
Speaker 4: it has kind of fascinated me because it's just amazing
39:29
Speaker 4: to me that a school decides that Saint Albans has
39:32
Speaker 4: the possibility of not having a football team. And and
39:36
Speaker 4: I agree with what Coach Brown said earlier in the interview. Man,
39:39
Speaker 4: it's like there is a I love going to high
39:43
Speaker 4: school basketball games and baseball games, and when I was
39:46
Speaker 4: in school and then after I love it. But there's
39:49
Speaker 4: nothing like Friday night football, you know, I mean, there's
39:52
Speaker 4: just nothing like it, and you know, I just I
39:56
Speaker 4: hate to see it. I mean, the market will do
39:58
Speaker 4: what the market will do. And I know we're talkingbout
40:00
Speaker 4: high school sports. We probably shouldn't say market, but still
40:03
Speaker 4: I get it, and I get what the text is saying.
40:04
Speaker 4: But I hope they're able to worked something out to

Speaker 4: Dave Islands Show on five any Live brought to you
40:08
Speaker 4: inmpired by the all New Generations for It of Hurricane
40:11
Speaker 4: Visit Generations for dot Com. We have a story posted
40:14
Speaker 4: this morning at the WCHS Network page. And we all
40:18
Speaker 4: remember the story the shots fired near Ladley Field during
40:24
Speaker 4: a track meet back in early May. The accused in
40:28
Speaker 4: the story twenty year old Jakai Harrison from Charleston. Now,
40:32
Speaker 4: according to what was reported from the courtroom yesterday, Harrison's
40:36
Speaker 4: going to enter a plea agreement with the prosecutor's office.
40:39
Speaker 1: Now.
40:39
Speaker 4: He was in the courtroom with Judge Taras Slango yesterday.
40:42
Speaker 4: His attorney told the court that there was some sort
40:47
Speaker 4: of an agreement pending a review of some video evidence
40:50
Speaker 4: something like that. He was scheduled to stand trial on
40:54
Speaker 4: charges of wanton endangerment with a firearm and there is
40:58
Speaker 4: going to be another hearing this afternoon. Course will be
41:01
Speaker 4: there Convertant, So I want to go back in time
41:05
Speaker 4: just for a moment and other bear with me here.
41:09
Speaker 4: Other than just the news aspect of it, this my
41:13
Speaker 4: story here actually has a point. It was on May second,
41:18
Speaker 4: around one o'clock or so in that afternoon, on a Saturday,
41:22
Speaker 4: that this track meet was going on. It lately Charleston
41:24
Speaker 4: Police Department says shots were fired from a driver that
41:28
Speaker 4: was traveling on Piedmont Road. Now, they were able to
41:32
Speaker 4: take video surveillance from a nearby business and they got
41:36
Speaker 4: their guy or the accused shortly thereafter it. And look,
41:40
Speaker 4: this was a terrible case. And it appeared that the guy,
41:44
Speaker 4: the suspect here in Harrison, thought he was being followed
41:50
Speaker 4: and opened fire. Now, the interesting thing here is this
41:57
Speaker 4: was not a story about Laidley Fee to per se.
42:01
Speaker 4: This could have happened in anybody's neighborhood. It could have
42:04
Speaker 4: happened on Court or g It could have happened on
42:05
Speaker 4: sixty four, any community here in the Canal Valley or
42:08
Speaker 4: across the country. It just happened to be that this
42:12
Speaker 4: guy allegedly was driving by ladley Field, felt he was
42:16
Speaker 4: being followed and he opened fire. And in the world
42:19
Speaker 4: we live in today, it's not hard to find out
42:21
Speaker 4: who somebody is and so they were able to get
42:23
Speaker 4: videos surveillance. He was taken in shortly there after. You
42:25
Speaker 4: know the story. He's back in court and I guess
42:28
Speaker 4: what will be a plea in Judge Silango's court room
42:31
Speaker 4: one forty five this morning. My point in where I'm
42:34
Speaker 4: going with this is and this has been the buzzword
42:38
Speaker 4: with me over the last couple of days social media,
42:43
Speaker 4: and I remember that day well, it was a Saturday afternoon.
42:48
Speaker 4: I was not in this area. I was in Putnam County,
42:52
Speaker 4: but I got an alert on my phone, one of
42:54
Speaker 4: the news alerts shots fired, you know, near Ladley Field,
42:58
Speaker 4: and the social media aspect of it, the inaccurate posting
43:05
Speaker 4: by people who caused a whole lot more panic that
43:09
Speaker 4: day because they were trying to play reporter saying that
43:13
Speaker 4: it was inside the stadium, students and others were shot
43:19
Speaker 4: and absolutely none of it was true, none of it.
43:23
Speaker 4: But by the time it went too when this is
43:25
Speaker 4: part of my rant over the last couple of days
43:27
Speaker 4: on social media. I remember that well because I think
43:30
Speaker 4: my wife and I were shopping or something. Let me
43:32
Speaker 4: at Kroger and I got home and you know, started
43:36
Speaker 4: looking around and was in contact with the news department here,
43:39
Speaker 4: you know, seeing what I could do to help and whatever,
43:41
Speaker 4: which was nothing, but you know, always offering. And I
43:44
Speaker 4: saw these reports, you know, students shot at late and
43:48
Speaker 4: absolutely none of it was true. Okay by people who
43:54
Speaker 4: think they are reporters who have not been trained on
43:57
Speaker 4: how to do this and whatever, and they called cause
44:01
Speaker 4: they potentially caused what could demand a whole heck of
44:04
Speaker 4: a lot more panic by just letting the police department
44:08
Speaker 4: do their thing and letting train news professionals do their thing.
44:12
Speaker 4: And so you know, again that's the takeaway from this
44:16
Speaker 4: from me was I remember that day well and remember
44:18
Speaker 4: thinking absolutely none of this is true what's being reported.
44:24
Speaker 4: But so that's where I'm kind of That's why I'm
44:27
Speaker 4: kind of taking a break from social media. One of
44:29

48:13
Speaker 4: Coming up later today at produced Midday thirteen News and
48:16
Speaker 4: Tonight Live, anchor Aman to bear an ab on assign
48:18
Speaker 4: of the day, but she's contributing to the show in
48:21
Speaker 4: various ways, some interviews that she has done. Now, for
48:23
Speaker 4: my part, Jeff Jenkins will have the news. Dave Wilson
48:26
Speaker 4: will stop by the commentary. We are going to talk
48:29
Speaker 4: to the State Republican Party chair Josh Holstein on the
48:32
Speaker 4: show today. We're going to talk a little bit about AI.
48:35
Speaker 4: Did you happen to see this story out of the
48:38
Speaker 4: Huntington city council meeting last night. This meeting went till
48:42
Speaker 4: four a m. This morning, seriously, and it all has
48:47
Speaker 4: to do with these flock cameras. Now, these are all
48:53
Speaker 4: encompassing cameras that the city of Huntington voted last night
48:59
Speaker 4: the council to allow these in their city. And they're
49:02
Speaker 4: in various cities I'm learning in the state of West Virginia,
49:07
Speaker 4: not just across the country. And if you do a
49:09
Speaker 4: little deep dive into this company, I did a little
49:12
Speaker 4: bit of it last night, these cameras, So it depends
49:16
Speaker 4: on which system that you go with. If you go
49:19
Speaker 4: with the high end, which I don't know that Huntington did,
49:22
Speaker 4: I mean they can pretty much when you're driving by
49:24
Speaker 4: on the streets, they can pretty much tell everything except
49:27
Speaker 4: for blood type. I mean your vehicle license obviously, your picture,
49:32
Speaker 4: the people that are in the car with you, the
49:33
Speaker 4: ven numbers, so on and so forth. And it's been
49:36
Speaker 4: very controversial in Huntingson. There were protesters outside city hall.
49:39
Speaker 4: I was talking having a text conversation earlier with the
49:42
Speaker 4: mayor of huntings and Patrick Ferrell. Hope to get him
49:44
Speaker 4: on midday to day, but unfortunately he's going to be
49:45
Speaker 4: out of town. He is going to join us though
49:47
Speaker 4: on the show either Thursday or Friday on Intro News
49:50
Speaker 4: Midday about this. They did vote to pass this. This
49:52
Speaker 4: meeting went on till four a m. This morning about
49:57
Speaker 4: these cameras. So I am going to talk a little
49:59
Speaker 4: bit about that on the show. Again, we'll have Mayor
50:00
Speaker 4: Ferrell on the show probably Thursday or Friday. So that's
50:04
Speaker 4: just a couple of things we're going to get into
50:06
Speaker 4: on the show today. On this show tomorrow, we're going
50:08
Speaker 4: to get a little bit more info about the efforts
50:10
Speaker 4: to replace Lance Wheeler on the Kadaha County Commission. Of course,
50:14
Speaker 4: he resigned. He's running for well, I actually opted not
50:18
Speaker 4: to run for reelection because he was appointed. Well, no,
50:21
Speaker 4: let me back up, opted not to run for reelection
50:23
Speaker 4: because he made himself a candidate for state Senate and
50:25
Speaker 4: he won in the primaries, so he's moving on to
50:28
Speaker 4: the general election. But he was going to finish out
50:30
Speaker 4: his term. But he was appointed to be the director
50:32
Speaker 4: of the Kannah Ambulance Service Authority, so did he resigned
50:36
Speaker 4: from that position. So basically somebody has got to finish
50:39
Speaker 4: out his term. Six names will go before sitting commissioners
50:44
Speaker 4: Selango and Tenant to make a decision on that. We'll
50:47
Speaker 4: get into that story coming up a little bit later on. Plus,
50:49
Speaker 4: our good friend Millie Snyder will be on the show
50:52
Speaker 4: tomorrow as well. Do you want to remind you that
