  Speaker 1: Welcome one and all, 406 in the afternoon, Wednesday, June 3rd,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: 82 degrees. It's a gorgeous day. Hope you're enjoying it.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: On News Radio 570, WKBN. I am most certainly enjoying it.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: I'm inside the house right now. I can't enjoy it
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: that much if I'm in here.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Well, you can enjoy it by looking out the window.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean because you're inside you're not enjoying the day.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: You can go out and enjoy it a little bit later.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean you have to be upset.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: I would agree with you more if you agreed.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: With me once in a while. Well, I don't agree
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: with you on this because..
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: I know you probably don't. You have your Ohio Edison bill.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: No, no, no.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Just listen to me. Just hang on a second.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, just hang on.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: With all due respect... With all due respect..
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I'm at 9.70 KWH.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Okay. Now, when you go home, you look at your bill,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: and you look under usage information for meter number and
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: whatever your meter number is. You look under there and
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: see how many kilowatt hours you actually use for that month. Yeah.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Okay. And then get back to me, and then I'll
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: compare them with my 3,144 KWH, which was an actual
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: reading that I had. And we'll see how much usage
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: you had at that point. And you'll see why your
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: bill is high.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Well, I can honestly answer your question, and I'm going
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to do it, and you can be quiet, and you
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: can either say whatever. But I'm going to go back
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: to this. Just bear with me for a second. I
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: am trying to let you know that there's ramifications to things,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: and I know it might not be what you want
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: to hear. But here's why. Okay, once again, I can't
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: even get three sentences out. Just allow me to indulge me.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Just indulge me for a minute. To open your eyes.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: The cost of electricity has gone up because of the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: war on coal. Now, I can't make it... There's politics
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: involved because it was the green energy people. These people
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: were Obama... Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Biden, and that whole
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: contingent of people that said they're buying into this green
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: energy stuff. This war on coal that happened with Hillary
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Clinton and Obama was very much a real thing. So
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about China. I'm talking about right here
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: in the area that you live in. So what they did...
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: was they put regulations on coal plants because they wanted
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: to get rid of coal. So they regulated them out
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: of business. It didn't matter that the Samus plant had
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the most modern technology and the scrubbers and all this stuff.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: They wanted to regulate them so that they put them
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: right out of business. And they were successful in doing that.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: And they made a law, a rule, that when you
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: closed it down, You had to tear it down because
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: they didn't want you to have the ability to turn
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: it back on. So this was the Obama-Clinton tenure. They
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: regulated it out. You had to tear it down. We
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: tore down perfectly good coal-producing plants, which would be very
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: expensive to build today. That was their goal. And they
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: didn't have anything to replace coal. the power generation of
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: that plant. They didn't think that through to say, well,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: this is going to pick up that load. They didn't care.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: It was a green energy deal. As a result of
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: moves like that, Just hear me out. As a result
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: of moves like that, and whether you like it or not,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Trump has stopped– the order from Trump now is you
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: cannot tear any of these coal plants down. But as
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: a result of tearing these plants down, not having anything
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to replace it, the war on coal– That you then,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: of course, demand going up with data centers and what
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: have you. The price of electricity has gone up because
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: you've created a supply and demand and a shortage issue
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: all at the same time because of this. Now, all
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's OK. Even these green energy people
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: like Bill Gates and that, now they realize that they
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: need these data centers and they'll make a ton of
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: money from it. These green energy people all of a
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: sudden are for coal plants. They're for nuclear power. They're
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: for fossil fuels because the people who were against it
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: are now for it because that's what they need to
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: run their facilities, whether it's Facebook or Google or whoever
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: it might be. I'm not making this stuff up. I'm
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: just saying if you take a look at it, that's
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: why you're paying more. I'm not any happier than you are.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: My electric rate has doubled. That's why it has doubled.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: And it very well will go up even higher because
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: the supply and demand issue continues. The bid on this
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: stuff continues to go up. My concern is I share
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: the concern with you. I am concerned about having affordable electricity.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: utilities for people. I dwell on it every day that
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: you've listened. I am sitting here. I'm not screwing with you.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I'm genuinely, genuinely give a damn about even the people
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: who can't stand me, who get tired of me. I'm
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: here every day trying to do something that lower people's
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: property taxes. successfully getting some things done, every day trying
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: to point out why we have this problem so people
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: understand it, so they don't go voting for this stuff
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: in the future. There's ramifications to it. And John Kerry said,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: the great John Kerry, the Democrat, he thought we should
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: live like they do in Europe, where they don't have
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: all this air conditioning and stuff. Of course, he wouldn't
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: live like that in his mansion. He was talking about
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: the rest of us, me and the rest of the
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: peasants out there, shouldn't have central air and enjoy the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: comfort in our home. And they are reaching a point
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: by increasing these rates to where people will get electric
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: bills and think twice before they turn on their air conditioning.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Or instead of turning it on 72, we'll turn it
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: on 74 because it's so damn expensive. Now, I'm genuinely
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: concerned that people have affordable electricity and And I sit
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: here and I say this to you. I'm against these
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: people who want to shut the coal plants down because
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: at the same time, you can't put all your eggs
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: in one basket. So if they shut a coal plant down,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: and let's say we have two natural gas plants now
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: in Lordstown. Anytime you build an energy plant that uses
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: natural gas, the demand for natural gas goes way up.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: So you're going to catch a... Because you don't have
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the diversity of hydro, nuclear, and coal... you're putting it
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: all on natural gas, you're going to get screwed with
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: high electric rates in addition to high natural gas rates.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: So it'll cost you more to heat your house. It'll
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: cost you more to turn the lights on. And these
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: are basic necessities that are going up beyond a rate
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: that people can afford. I understand that, but I'm trying
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: to explain it to you why this has happened. And
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to say, If you listen to when Dave
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Thomas is on, what are we what are they doing
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to try to prevent this from getting worse? Oh, we've
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: we've changed the energy policy. So where they're making it
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: easier to build these plants and what have you. But
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: it takes years to build this stuff that we should
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: never rip down in the first place. I'm not trying
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: to be an ass with you. I'm not trying to
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: say it's all about politics, but in some cases, it
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: is about politics and bad decisions people have made. I
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: am man enough to sit here to you, and I
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: have respect for you. You know that. And say to you,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I support Trump. I voted for Trump three times. And
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: I think overall he's doing a decent job. But I
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: think Trump is dead ass wrong with this war in Iran.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: And I think it was a major mistake from day one.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I think it's a giant mess and it could go,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: it could cost us dearly as far as oil prices, gasoline, energy,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: and inflation. But I won't cover his ass or act
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: like it didn't happen. As we go along, if it
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: gets worse in July and August, I'll put the blame
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: right at his feet for the decision he made because
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: he deserves that blame if it materializes like that. I'm
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: not going to sit here and say, oh, because I
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: voted for him or as a Republican, I can't do that.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not.
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: No.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not a cheerleader. So you stay tuned. I'm critical
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: of Trump today and continue to be over this war
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: situation and the mess he got this country in. And
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's working out very good at the
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: present time. I hope I'm wrong when the dust settles.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I'm afraid that you can see an oil shortage. I'm
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: afraid that you can see more expensive oil. as we
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: get into June and July, to where it could go
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: well beyond $ 120 a barrel and put a hurt on everybody.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: So I'm not going to be like you and say, well,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: you can't make it about politics, because if that happens,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: it is about politics. It's about what he did. I
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: rest my case, Your Honor.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Well, evidently, quite obviously, You have, I probably shouldn't have
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: brought it up in the first place. because you're very
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: well versed because you went on there for 10 minutes
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: about Ohio Edison and the energy and all this.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Just trying to let you know why prices went up.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm trying to do.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Prices... I'm not an expert on it. I never was.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: All I see..
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: The person that I am is that I see fraud, cheating, lying, deceitfulness.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I see it all in this administration and family. The
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Republicans will not admit to it.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: I admit to it.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm trying to say. I just heard you
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: say about Trump and how you're—I get it. I understand.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, have you listened to me?
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: The mags out there, they are going to believe until
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: the day they die. And the attack on the Capitol
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: was just a walk in the park.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Listen, listen for a second. I'm not a fan of DeWine.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: If you agree to that, then I should probably not
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: even call your show. Seriously. Because, let me put it
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: this way.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Well, you keep going back on stuff. Listen, I am..
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: If you're not going to, if the Republican Party is
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: not going to live by the rules that the rest
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: of us live by... then I have to break the
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: rules to make sure you conform to the rules of
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: this country. Does that make any sense?
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: No.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, think about it. Think about what I just said,
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: because it does. If you are going to, not you,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: if the Republican Party is going to continue down the
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: path of lies, deceitfulness, and trying to run this country
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: with everybody under their thumb and turn it into a
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: third world nation, then I'm going to have to do something,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: meaning the other side is going to have to do
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: something to make that party conform and get around to
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: what the laws and regulations that we have been used
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: to in this country for the past 250 years.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Are those laws that we're used to over 250 years,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: laws about having men in women's locker rooms, are those
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: the laws you're referring to? No, are those the laws
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: that you talk about for 250 years that means an
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: open border and everybody can walk in? Are those the laws?
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: I bet you don't even know one person that is
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: LBGTQ or whatever it's called. I'll bet that you don't
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: even know one person that is gay.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Yes, I do.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, so you do. But so what? That is not a...
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: You bring that up, that's just a talking point.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: No, it's not a talking point.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: The Democratic Party is siding in that direction.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: They are. They are. They most certainly are.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: You ask 95% of Democrats that same question, and they'll
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: say you're nuts.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: They are the ones championing it with the whole nonsense.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: I haven't heard anybody talk about that.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: In months. That is where the party is. They stand
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: for it today. They're the party of the transgenderism. They're
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: the party of you can wish yourself a woman. Men
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: can have babies. They can't even define a woman. You
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: put forth a candidate on the Supreme Court that won't
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: even answer what a woman is. They don't even want
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: to call a mother a mother. They don't want to
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: say boys and girls. That's your party. Suck it up.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: That's your party. I can sit here and say to you,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you lack the ability. I can sit here and say
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: to you, I agree with the court that Trump's name
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: should have never been on the Kennedy Center. I can
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: sit here and say to you, I think this was
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: a mistake, Trump getting into this war. I can sit
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: here and say to you, there are things about Trump
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: that bother me when he turns on his fellow supporters
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and some of the stuff that he does. Because I'm
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: not a cheerleader like you. I don't have blinders on
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: like you. I can criticize the guy I voted for,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: even though I'd vote for him again, because overall I
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: agree with what he's doing. But I can sit here
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: and criticize the stuff I don't agree with. And if
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: he creates all this inflation, we'll certainly be talking about it.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: But you lack the ability. You lack the ability to
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: admit your party is into the freaky social stuff. I
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: don't think I want to ask you anything more. I
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: think I've had enough of you. I don't want to
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: talk to you anymore.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Yes, you do.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Maybe I do.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: What else besides men can't have babies? No, they can't.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: What else do you want me to say?
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I'm just trying.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: You are a staunch Democrat.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Yes, you are. You're a staunch Democrat. You go to
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: the No Kings rally. I am going to secretly send
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: the boss lady down undercover to the next No Kings rally.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I'm going to have her dress undercover to try to
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: film you at the No Kings rally.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Can I get paid.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: To go there? Unfortunately, no, you actually went there on
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: your own, which is hard for me to imagine. I mean,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: first of all, a guy your age driving is very
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: troubling to me. All right.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Well, you probably shouldn't be on the road. You should
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: probably be Ubering at your age. I'm sure when you
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: drove down there, I'm sure when you drove down there,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: you drove 45 miles an hour in the left-hand lane
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: of the freeway. 45 miles an hour. All right. Have
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: a good day.
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: Bye.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Listening. Youngstown's News, Weather, and Talk Station. 570 WKBN. News
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Radio 570 WKBN. We're on verb. All right. So we'll
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: do whatever. 424 in the afternoon. You're on the air.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, every time I listen to that guy,
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: I want to go to my utility drawer and pull
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: out some knives from him. That guy's pumped out, man.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if it's Trump drinking or something,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: but you're right. They destroyed our ability to make electricity.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: And it is political because they did it. Obama, Clinton,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: and the rest of before them, you know.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Don't forget O'Biden, as you call him.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: I call him O'Biden because he's just following Obama's rules.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: You know, he's like being counseled by him, you know? Yeah,
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: so anyhow, I was nice to hear, Denise. Very uplifting,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: very positive. And I'm glad she's moving forward with her
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: eight counties, or nine counties, okay? And so, like I say,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: the Guardians did great. They actually beat the Yankees, although
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: you didn't have their number one star, Andrew Bones. You
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: got a Bruce Bones.
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: So he was in it.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: So they won 9-4, and they're playing tonight at 7.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: The catcher's pitching tonight, Ron.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Who's pitching?
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Gavin Williams.
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: What?
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: It's going to be a great game.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Well, it's enjoyable to listen to, and it's enjoyable to follow.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, it really is.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: Don't you love Tom Hamilton?
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, I do.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God, man. Do you want to jump out
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: of your chair?
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: It just relaxes me. I mean, it just relaxes me,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: which I need. It gives me a chance to just
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: listen to. him call a game, and I just find
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: it personally very relaxing and enjoyable.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, after three hours of what you've got
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: to listen to, hell, I can't listen to anything anymore.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: I turn it on, and I hear people talking. I'm like,
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: you've got to be kidding me.
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: I'm feeling really bad for you, Ron.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: I shut it off, you know?
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you do. I'm glad you feel bad for me.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Somebody should feel bad for me.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: I'm glad Hamilton gives you a boost.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely. And so do you, Baba Ganoush, just so
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: No, I don't.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: You tell me that all the time. I know. Hey,
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: just like you know, Trump knows what he's doing. That's
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: all I've got to say. And I talk to people
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: that don't like Trump, that like Trump, and all of
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: them say, nobody knows what he's doing. I said, he
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: knows what he's doing.
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: I just want to say that. So, Frank, I'm sorry, sir,
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: but you're stuck with it.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Bubba Ganoush. Bubba Ganoush, you're on air.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: Whoa.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Holy catfish.
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: I never heard anybody.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: That guy was.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Something else, right? Oh, man.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: That wasn't nice. Yeah, the Guardians did good. I agree
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: with Bubba Ganoush. You can't beat Tom Hamilton. No, you can't.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: He's the best, isn't he?
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Yes, he is the best. The best.
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: He is.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: And it's good. I'm glad to see it. I'm glad
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: to see it. Well, and I'm better.
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: The Browns will be okay.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Maybe.
• 19:51
  Speaker 8: Maybe.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: But I'll still root for them. I know.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: That's okay.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: You know, you change things, and it's going to be okay,
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: At least, I believe.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Have a good day, buddy. Thank you. Here's Radio 570. WDKVN,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: you're on the air. Hello, line three. You wouldn't know
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: what line you're on anyway. I do because I can
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: see it in front of me. You go back on hold.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: Let's see here. You're on here. Hello. You got to
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: pay attention. You go back on hold. You're on here.
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: Ron, you are an artiste blood boiler.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's a guru from Gerard. We'll come back
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: with him after the break at 430. He is the
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: guru from Gerard. Words of wisdom from Miguel coming up.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: News Radio 570 WKVN. The guru from Gerard.
• 20:48
  Speaker 9: Hello.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Hi.
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: I was just thinking, we're talking, you're listening to 570 WKB. Ron,
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: may I share a memory with you that was sparked
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: by your volley with Fifth Avenue?
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: Which is why I called you a class, I mean,
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: you're a class act blood boiler.
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: So this is about the week before Trump got elected
• 21:18
  Speaker 6: the second time. And as I did on the first one,
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: I had a feeling he was going to get elected
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: for the second time. And I'm sitting at my dining
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: room table. There are two college graduates in the area
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: of counseling and another brilliant student. And they're related to me.
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: Two out of three are related to me. And they're
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: having a conversation. as clear as day, like as serious
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: as it can be about what they're studying in school,
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: about how all these, like trying to justify what LBTQ
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: is and LBTQ plus. And, you know, and, and we
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: were actually, I was paying for this. Right. And, and then,
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: and by the way, this was at a time when
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: I was going through and being injected with all kinds
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: of drugs and everything. And as I'm listening to this,
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: I said to myself, Okay, God, I've seen enough.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: I'm ready to go.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: Okay?
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: I literally said that to myself.
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: Okay?
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: Which now I'm glad I didn't see. But I looked
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: at these kids and I said, I don't mean to
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: tell you what to do. Well, I said, what did
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: I say? Everything you're discussing right now is not going
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: to matter in a week. And sure as can be,
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: All of it just disappeared. For Fifth Avenue to say
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: that Democrats don't do that and didn't do that. I mean,
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: we've got a lot of people around here that are
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: like normal Democrats. They're not all like that. But all
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: those people in charge and the Democrats, that's all they
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: were doing and talking to people at the educational level.
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: And they were having huge impact. I mean, think about that.
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: They were teaching that to college educated people who are
• 23:05
  Speaker 6: going to be in charge of people. It was so
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: on the edge of being dangerous to our society that
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: I was just... I seriously said to myself, okay, God,
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: I've seen enough. I'm ready to go.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: You reminded me of that.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 23:20
  Speaker 6: You reminded me of that as I was, like, listening
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: to him in denial about that. Now, I'm not saying
• 23:27
  Speaker 6: anything about anybody else or, you know, that nobody's at fault.
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: Like you said, if somebody's an idiot, I'll call them
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: an idiot if I think they're an idiot.
• 23:35
  Speaker 11: But..
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: That was just crazy dangerous to be brainwashing all of
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: our children and everything into this contrived stuff that is
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: so far from physical reality that it just made no
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: sense at all. It's almost like trying to get everybody
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: to use solar panels so the big corporations could actually
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: use all the energy that we make and we'd all
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: be stuck with the solar panels.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: You following me?
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I'm listening to every word you're saying.
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: You know, I mean, it was crazy.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: Do you remember that time period?
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, I remember it. I mean, it wasn't that long ago.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, people have a hard time. Listen, as I've
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: said a million times, you know as well as anyone
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: who's a listener, I'm not here to cheerlead for anybody.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: I don't care if they're Republican or Democrats. I think
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: DeWine is god-awful as a governor with the cover-up that's
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: going on with all of this fraud. When I talk,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: do you think that because if you're a conservative that
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: I can make a justification for DeWine with the fraud
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: that's taking place and his lack of taking action on it?
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Do you think I can support DeWine by giving a
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: sales tax break to the data centers? I think that
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: stuff's ridiculous. What, am I supposed to sit here and say, oh,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: if you're a Republican, you better not criticize a Republican
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: for doing that type of asinine stuff? Or I'm not
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: supposed to sit here and criticize something that I disagree
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: with Trump on? Well, then you're a phony. Then you're
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: a fraud. Then you're nothing. Then I don't know what
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: the point is. I mean, I could disagree with Trump
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: on some issues, but I still think he's a far
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: better choice than anything the Democrats have. Far better. I mean,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I think the Republicans have better choices. I think Ron
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: DeSantis would make a great president. I think he's a
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: terrific governor. I think we just got more bench strength
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: in the Republican Party than the wackos in the Democrat
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Party and their wacky agenda.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: Period.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, would I vote for Amy Acton for governor?
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Absolutely not.
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: Do you know why I think Ron's verb should be
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: governor or senator?
• 25:53
  Speaker 11: Why?
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: I don't know if you remember our last conversation, but
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: you asked me if we should put the data centers
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: in right now, and I said no because they are
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: not collecting taxes from them. Do you remember that? I
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: don't know. A lot of people talk to you, but
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: that was my response. Do you know two days later,
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: the governor came out and revoked that and started saying
• 26:18
  Speaker 6: they were going to, I mean, do you think he listened?
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but that's, you're pretty powerful and you
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: don't realize it. And I think there's, so I would,
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: I would love to see you, you know, put down
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: the microphone just for that reason. I don't, other than that,
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: you can just stay here and drive us all crazy
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: for the rest of the night.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: But listen, Michael, Michael, Time has ticked by. Listen, I
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: sincerely and greatly appreciate that. That means a lot coming
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: from you. But let me put it this way to you.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: At 68 years of age. This is it. You know
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Are you kidding me? No.
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: You're a rookie.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: You're like a honeymooner there.
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: No.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: When I'm done, I'm done. At some point, life does
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: run out.
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: Think of how you could be corrupted, my friend, and
• 27:16
  Speaker 6: make so much money and change everything you think of.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Within a year. You'd be a totally different person.
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: Think of how you could do that. That'd be so fun.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: I think that sometimes I look at, well, I just
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: appreciate that. I appreciate that a great deal. But if
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: I was a younger man, as they would say, that
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: would be a possibility. I told you when you were younger.
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: I said the same thing when you were younger.
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: You wouldn't listen.
• 27:42
  Speaker 10: You remember?
• 27:42
  Speaker 6: Some people talk to you, but I'll go back and
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: find the tape.
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: Can you please run?
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: I support you. I've said this I don't know how
• 27:49
  Speaker 6: many times.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: I know. Come on.
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: There's not much time left.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: Well, you would know better than anyone because you almost
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: faced the end, right? You never know.
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: What do they say?
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: God laughs when he hears you make plans. Every day counts, though.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Every day does count.
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: And you've got a few to get there. Come on,
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: promote G2. Get some signs going. And you'll get elected, Ron.
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: You will get elected. You'll be like that, what's his name,
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: the guy running for L.A.
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: Mayor.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Yeah.
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: You will be.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: You will. Yeah. You know, you mean a lot to me,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: and I appreciate it, buddy. I do. Did you get
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the paint? Get the paintbrush and get busy.
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I've got a little more to do.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Hey, I'm glad you're still amongst us, all right?
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: Yep.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. The guru from Girard. Michael, thank you.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: All right, let's see. You're on air. Ron? Yes?
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: How are you feeling today?
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: It's the boss lady on the end of the line.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: I am fine. Thank you, boss lady. I am fine.
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: You're all fine, and you feel very relaxed today.
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: For a counseling session today, but you've dispatched me to
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: a no-things rally again.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, Fifth Avenue goes... Yeah, you would have
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: to be like in a camouflage outfit. You'd have to
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: go undercover. And he's got a very distinguishable voice, and
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: we know he's an older guy. And you would have
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: to try to track him down and then throw instructions.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: net over him and take him for counseling.
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: Can't we get JJ to do this?
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, probably we could, but that's probably not..
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: We probably could. JJ, help me.
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: Can't you do this for me?
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: That's... We'll let it slide. We'll let it slide. But
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: who knows?
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: We are going to be collecting signatures. I will be
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: with Mark collecting signatures at Four Seasons on Sunday. So
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: if anybody has not signed up to participate yet.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Four Seasons flea market?
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: Yep, at the flea market.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: What's up with all of these people going to these
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: flea markets? They're packed. Really?
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: Well, I like to go. I forget about it, honestly.
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: But then when Mark brought it up to me, I
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: was like, well, yeah, of course we need to go back.
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: But they're packed.
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: I like to get my fruit and vegetables from there.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: This is the weirdness. I mean, you know, I got
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: to say that I've never had some desire to go
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: to a flea market. But yet, whenever my wife says, hey,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: you want to go to Meijer with me, I always say, absolutely.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: And I'm like in the Austintown Meijer store, I'm like,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: I'm loving this. Loving this.
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: That's where people can spot you.
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: You just need to stand inside my room and wait
• 30:57
  Speaker 7: in the vegetable section?
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: No, because, yeah, because I keep on going like a
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: bullet because the problem, well, the problem, yeah, I just
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: go in and get what, I just follow her and
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: just say, okay, can I get this? What do you
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: think about this? What do you think about that? No, no, no, no.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: You're like a little kid in a store is what
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: I hear.
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: Well, you can't get any Dr.
• 31:19
  Speaker 6: Pepper.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: No, I'm off the pop altogether.
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: Well, no, you're not in the pop section.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: No, I tell everybody. Now, she gets upset. See, folks,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: I go, here's my M.O. When I go to Meijer,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I go in the door in Austintown, and I go
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: directly to the back wall. I now, my wife thinks
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: it's insane, I buy... Pre-made, unsweetened iced tea that is
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: just filtered water and tea. That's the only ingredients in it.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: It's made by– you buy a gallon of it. It's
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: from Milo's. It's in the back cooler.
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: I've had it.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Milo's. And I go right to the back. I grab
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: one or two of those. And they were $ 4 a gallon.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Now it's $ 4. 20, the inflation.
• 32:03
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: It's going up to $ 4.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: 20.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: You're allowed to get that.
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: I get that because I don't drink any pop anymore.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: And she says to me, you know, I make iced tea,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: and I could make that for 50 cents. And I said, yeah,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: but I'd rather buy it here in this jug. And
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: I just like the taste of it. And that's it.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? This is what happens. This
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: is like you going to the flea markets. in Four
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Seasons Flea Markets. You can see live and in person
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: the boss lady. When is that going to be, Sunday?
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: Sunday, 9 to noon. Yep, we'll be there to collect signatures.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: And I think somebody, did Denise call in and say
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: about the announcement on Friday? Okay. Yeah, so we'll learn
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: on Friday. We're just going to keep going until we're
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: told to stop. In case we don't have the number,
• 32:55
  Speaker 5: we'll just keep collecting.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: Sunday, June 7th, 9 to noon. You will find us
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: at the Four Seasons Flea Market if you want to sign.
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: You can sign from any county. So we can collect
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: and take your signatures, whether you're from Mahoning County, Trumbull County, Columbia.
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: It doesn't matter what county you're in as long as
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: you haven't signed before. And you're registered to vote.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Why don't you set up a little stand there and
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: sell some homemade blankets that you knitted together or something?
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: I don't knit, Ron.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, here's another one. Celebrate your Italian heritage and have
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: a spaghetti stand right there.
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: Oh, that's too much work, Ron.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: That's a lot of work. All right. I'm running out
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: of ideas, folks.
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: I can't... I don't want to do... Now, we're just
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: going to do some signatures. I'll say, hi.
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: Hi.
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: Do you want to sign our petition? And hopefully, people
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: will sign. I mean, Denise has done such a great
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: job in Mahoning County. We don't... But the point is,
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: is you can sign from every county, and they do
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: get a lot of traffic from elsewhere. Like, people come
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: out from everywhere.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: Now, why is it... I really admire Denise and all
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: she's done, so I admire you and all you're doing.
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: Why?
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: And now you're going to take a Sunday afternoon and
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: you're going to go spend three or four hours doing that.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: What motivates you to do something like that? I mean,
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: to give up your time to go say, I'm going
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: to go do this.
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, if we don't do it, who's going
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: to do it, right? I mean, there's only a handful
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: of people that are willing to do it. And we
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: want it to volish. We want it to volish because
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: we know we can... pay for it another way. And
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: we know that it's not a money problem. It's a
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: spending problem and a fraud problem.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Now, do you think you'll ever run for an office?
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: Do you think, because like I sit here and I say, well,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: she should run for commissioner. I mean, I think you
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: do a really good job. I'm not saying that you
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: quit your job that you have and I wouldn't want
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: you to do that because obviously you're doing well, but
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, you could quit it down the line, but
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, what did you ever, you should give that
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: some consideration. I think you would do a really good job.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Richard pharmacist. I'd be a
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: big fan of, of the boss lady. I would, I
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: would love to see, uh, well, G2, he'd have to
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: be president. He couldn't be anything lower than that.
• 35:12
  Speaker 7: But, uh, We could make him president.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: But that would mean he would have to come out
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: of his secret bunker and is on disclosed location. I
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: think he'd be very uncomfortable with that. But yeah, you
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: should give it some consideration. When all these people talk,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: you still got a few good years left.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I've thought about it. What's hard for
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: me is I don't like all the..
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: I don't like all the.
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: Party schmoozing, the this and then that, right?
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: And that's, I would want just grassroots support.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: You don't want the phoniness of it. Like, you see
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: all these people.
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: I hate that dog and pony show. I just can't
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: get into it. And I have to be passionate, enthusiastic
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: about it. That part is just so unattractive to me.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: I'm in total agreement with you. Have you noticed when,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: with the last primary, you see all these people, hey,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: I'm down here at this event that I normally would
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: never be at, but I'm here acting like I'm loving
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: it here because I'm trying to get these people to
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: vote for me. Once you get elected, you never go
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: back to it unless it's time to get reelected. Stand by.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: It's the boss lady on NewsRadio 570.
• 36:29
  Speaker 8: 452.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: I'll get back to her right after this. News Radio
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: 570 WKBN. See, boss lady, I agree with you. All
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: of the nonsense, like I said in the last primary,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: you see these people. I'm at this meeting. I never
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: go here, but I'm going here because I'm running for
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: office and I want to act like I want to
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: be here and get these people to vote for me.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: And then they would never go there if they weren't
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: running for office. There's a phoniness about it all.
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: And there is so unattractive and it's just so phony fake.
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: And obviously I'm, I'm just very real and very down
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: to earth. I approach business the same way. I talk
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: to my employees the same way. And I don't know if,
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: you know, I could, I'm ready. I could be ready.
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: I could do those roles, but I don't know if
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: the County is ready for what I would bring.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: And that would be the concern.
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: I'd be interested. But my focus has been on, you know, budgeting, taxpayers,
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: just common sense, day-to-day government. So it's really not about me.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: It's really about whether the people of the county are
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: ready for that kind of leadership and approach.
• 37:39
  Speaker 7: And sometimes I think they are.
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: But a lot of times I think they're not.
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: Because then you look at some of the ways that
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: they're voting on.
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: So, you know.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: No, you're 100% right. But, see, that's real. What you
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: said is absolutely real. I mean, I would almost snicker
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: at these people acting like they're happy to be at
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: these gatherings. And I thought, once again, you're there because
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: you're seeking votes. You'd not be there if you weren't
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: running for office. Everybody's great. What a great gathering and
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: this kind of stuff. And it's just like a popularity contest. So, no,
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: I'm with you 100%. But even if you didn't go
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: to the fish fry, I would still vote for you,
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: just so you know. Thank you.
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: I appreciate that.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: Thank you, boss lady.
• 38:26
  Speaker 7: Sorry, Ron.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: Have a good night. I think she'd do an excellent job.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: There's some people, when you talk to them, you say, boy,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: they'd do a really good job. But they don't like
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: some of the nonsense of politics, too. And I get it.
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: I get it. All right. Don't touch that dial. Ron
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Furb from the Kingdom of Mahoning. More to come.
• 38:52
  Speaker 10: From ABC News, I'm Michelle Franzen. President Trump maintains that
• 38:56
  Speaker 10: Iran wants to finalize a deal even as the Pentagon
• 38:59
  Speaker 10: confirmed it shot down Iranian drones attempting to attack U.S.
• 39:03
  Speaker 10: forces in Kuwait. The president brushing off concerns it could
• 39:06
  Speaker 10: jeopardize the ceasefire.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: I'd say in that part of the world, ceasefires when
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: you're shooting. in a more moderate manner.
• 39:12
  Speaker 10: ABC's Selena Wang has more on rising tensions and a
• 39:15
  Speaker 10: war that is dragging into a fourth month.
• 39:17
  Speaker 9: The president said this was going to be a four
• 39:19
  Speaker 9: to six week war. We have way blown past that deadline.
• 39:22
  Speaker 9: We're in this tenuous ceasefire.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Yet the U.S.
• 39:25
  Speaker 9: And Iran continue to exchange fire, not to mention the
• 39:28
  Speaker 9: president for weeks now has been saying that we're close
• 39:31
  Speaker 9: to a deal with Iran. But we have seen lots
• 39:33
  Speaker 9: of whiplash starts and stops.
• 39:35
  Speaker 10: Primary races across states yesterday, including California, results for the
• 39:40
  Speaker 10: top two candidates in the mayoral race in L.A. are
• 39:43
  Speaker 10: still being tallied. ABC's political director Avery Harper has more.
• 39:46
  Speaker 11: When you look at the vote count, and at last check,
• 39:50
  Speaker 11: Karen Bass was at about 35% of the vote. Spencer
• 39:53
  Speaker 11: Pratt was just behind her at about 30%. And then
• 39:55
  Speaker 11: that progressive councilwoman, Nithya Raman, she was at about 22
• 39:59
  Speaker 11: percent of the vote. There's a little bit of a
• 40:01
  Speaker 11: quirk in California in that votes will still be counted
• 40:04
  Speaker 11: as long as they are postmarked by Election Day and
• 40:07
  Speaker 11: they are received within seven days of Election Day. So
• 40:10
  Speaker 11: it could be a while before we actually know who
• 40:12
  Speaker 11: is going to go up against Karen Bass.
• 40:14
  Speaker 10: The governor's race is also still undecided in that state.
• 40:18
  Speaker 10: New details in the hours-long standoff at a bank in Bakersfield, California,
• 40:22
  Speaker 10: that ended in the death of a suspect who said
• 40:24
  Speaker 10: he had a bomb. FBI Special Agent in Charge Sid
• 40:27
  Speaker 10: Patel identifying the suspect as Anthony Scott Searles Harris.
• 40:30
  Speaker 8: He was no stranger to law enforcement and has a
• 40:32
  Speaker 8: criminal history of using weapons to commit violent offenses. In 2014,
• 40:38
  Speaker 8: he was charged with sex acts with a child under 14.
• 40:42
  Speaker 8: He's a registered sex offender.
• 40:43
  Speaker 10: Police say the 10 hostages were released unharmed. You're listening
• 40:47
  Speaker 10: to ABC News.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Hot sauce.
