  Speaker 2: I didn't take a stick Yeah, I.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Never wear those stickers either.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't, but voted for mis acted.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: So let's go No, you did not. Don't say that
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: because people will call up here hating on you. They
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: will call up here hating on you. Shots have been
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: fired in the political race already for the Ohio Senate seat.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I've seen both commercials from both candidates, Shared Brown, Shared
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Brown and John Houston. Have you seen them both?
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: I have not, but I know if it Shared Brown
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: is whatever the commercial is with that hair.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: This is what I want to know. There was a
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: time when we used to talk about negative political advertising
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: not working, that people were turned off by it. But
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: quite frankly, especially with the advent of social media, so
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: many of you people have become so negative. I'm wondering
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: if that's still the case now. Shared Brown his commercial,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: you know, going going up against John Houstad is is
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: it's mean? You know, John Houston took money from a
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: friend of Jeffrey Epstein, one hundred some thousand dollars from
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: a friend of Jeffrey Epstein. And John Housted's commercial said
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: nothing about Shared Brown. He just said, hey, here, I'm
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: John Houstead. Here's here's the guy I am. And I
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: personally I prefer Housted commercial. Personally, I prefer Houston, but
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: I prefer the usted commercial. The style of that commercial.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: I'm just wondering if people have changed A two one
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: nine eight eighty six. By the way, if people have
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: changed in my lifetime, because when I was a young man,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: it was said that negative political advertising doesn't work. But
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: right out of the gate, Shared Brown's negative on John Houstead.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's because John is such a you know, apple
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Pie and Chevrolet kind of guy. Maybe he figures he's
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: got to come out and try to tear him down immediately.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: My caution would be, and I'm not gonna discuss stuff
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: right now. I'm not here to put the bad mouth
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: on him. But even if John Houstead himself, the candidate
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: does not run negative ads against Shared Brown, somebody will
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: will form a pack that will run them on behalf
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: of Senator Eustead.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I was about to bring that up. There's always been
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: positive ads from a lot of presidential candidates. The negative
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: ones were always from packs, and the candidate would go,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: I did. I didn't have anything to do.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: With it, and mister Brown, mister Brown might not like
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: the content quite frankly, of some of what they bring up,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: bring out and talk about. I just I think strategically
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: this was a bad move to come right out of
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the gate swinging hard and trying to associate John Houstead
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: with Jeffrey Epstein. And no, I have not talked to
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Senator Eastad's office about this at all. This is just me.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: But I've been talking to him for many years since
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: he was Ohio Secretary of State, and I will tell
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: you I know nothing about him that is, you know,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a negative personality trait. Could he have handled the COVID
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: situation better? Yeah, probably so, But you've got to remember
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: he was the second Banana. And the way politics works,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: whether we like it or not, there is a power
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: structure within the organization. And I've said right straight to
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: his face, although he does not agree or disagree with me.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: He just listens when I say it. But he should
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: have been governor eight years ago. And it is my
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: firm belief that, you know, the meeting was called the
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: old man wants, you know, his last glory here. He's
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: been a senator, he's been a prosecutor, he's been we
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: want him to be governor. You take second in command,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: and we'll make sure that you get all the support
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you need when he's gone. I really believe it. And
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I think that that, uh, that arrangement did not serve
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Ohio well, because you know, the other side of that
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: whole COVID thing is running on the Democratic side of
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the ticket.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I watched video last night of Doctor Acton and I
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: don't I don't get it. The hand ringing she was,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: she was one on one with a reporter, the hand ringing,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: and it was as if she was teaching a kindergarten
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: class Ohio needs and Ohio wants to and we went
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, really, it just I don't know. It's
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: like she was she was deciding, oh, but the pink
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: wallpaper would be so nice. I can't. With the exception
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: of just party loyalty, political bias, I don't see necessarily
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: what makes her a good candidate. Now you're younger, and
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: you see the left side a little better than I do,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: And I admit that I'm not calling you a lefty
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: at all, but you understand some of their thinking better
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: than I. What what's the first thing if you were
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: to look at Amy Acton as a seriously an attractive
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: candidate for your vote, what's the first thing that comes
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: to mind that you think is a positive about her?
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: She did the best that she possibly could with COVID,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: with the information that she had.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: If that was her best, why would you trust her
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: with anything else?
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Because it was? It was she gave the good advice.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Everybody else that didn't listen, No, it's got nothing.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Her good advice kept people separated, kept family set let
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: old people die in hospital rooms and nursing homes with
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: their family not able to be by their side. Because
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: we couldn't even go out of our house half the time.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Well that's that's you don't need to leave your house.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I don't see where that benefited us at all, especially
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: now that we're you know, a few years past this,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and we see seriously how innocuous COVID was. Did some
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: people die, Yes, some of COVID, some with COVID, But
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: do you what didn't she say, like ten thousand people
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: a day, we're gonna die, this was a pandemic. Ten
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: thousand didn't she say that?
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: I can't remember, I mean jokes aside, not playing Devil's advocate,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: I can't remember, but I remember her saying how many
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: people we're gonna get it or had it by the
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: time she made like one of the first announcements, and
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: it was a lot. So I don't even I can't
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: remember because all those press conferences and stuff they started
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: melting into one and I just stopped watching them.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I just I don't see how they and I will.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I always listen. I try to be very very uh
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: very what's the word I'm looking for. Yeah, well, not
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: open minded necessarily, but at least fair. Yea fair And
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: and if somebody, if somebody says yes, I support Amy acted,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I'll listen to you. I don't think you could ever
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: convince me to come over to your side. But I'm
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: just curious somebody who says, yes, I'm going to vote
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: if it's not just because I hate Republicans and I'm
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: a Democrat and I'm voting Democrat and we're going to
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: go blue all over the state. Okay, well, yeah, I
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: can't help you vote blue no matter who. I can't. Yeah,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I can't. I can't deal with that. I you know,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I don't vote Republican all the time, but oh I
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: just Republicans nothing. But there there's times when I have
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: voted Democrat. I admit that. In fact, I just had
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: to talk with a Democrat over the weekend. I'm going
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: to have him on the show, but not till the
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: end of the month. I'm more often than not, significantly
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: more often than not, I'm going to vot Republican because
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I have more in line with what that platform is
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: supposed to be about. And as I've said before, there's
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: no candidate of any political ilk with what you are
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: going to agree one hundred percent of the time. It
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: cannot happen. As long as we have independent, minded, thinking people.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Sometime they're going to do something, They're going to vote
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: some way, they're going to support something, they're going to
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: make some speech with which you will disagree, even if
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: you're in the same party. Even if you voted for them,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: even if you support them, they're not one hundred percent
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: of the time going to be on exactly the same
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: page as you. And for those instances, you just you
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: have to elect somebody that you believe, you know what,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Ultimately they're going to do what they believe is the
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: right thing. And if they are a good and decent
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: person and they do what they believe is the right thing,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: then hopefully it will work out. And that's that is seriously,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: that's oh you can do. There's nobody who's going to
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: get elected who's going to be exactly where you want
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: them to be all the time. But when it comes
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: to doctor acting, I honestly can't think of a thing
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: that we would agree on. And that is honest. The
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: odds are against me in that case. But again, I
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: will listen. If you are an acting supporter and you
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: want to tell me why this is why I'm gonna
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: I will listen to you. In the meantime, I still
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: want to know if the political and negative advertising is
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: working for you. That's something else that is really uh
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: because hey, we're still in the midst of the primary.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: The day isn't even over, and the commercials have already started,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: already started for November, and with Brown coming out swinging negative, man,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: it's going to be a long, long seven or eight months.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: I do remember that back in the day, it was
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: from what I remember, the negative ads would come towards
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: an end of a campaign when somebody was kind of losing, yeah,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: and they're just kind of just going all out to
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: try and you know, gain ground.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: And it's usually usually a losing ever, but.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: To come right out of the gate, different strategy.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it is. I mean, that's I I don't understand
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: that at all. I would have if if I were,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: you know, running Shared Brown's campaign, I would say, look,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: you've got a bunch of years. There's some things obviously
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: you are proud of, even if if you know the
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: other side is not not his barber, but so you
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: well that's true, there's he could probably help somebody out
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: that's a barber that needs some work. But you talk
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: about those things, I'm Shared Brown.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: I served in the United States Congress and blah blah blah.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: I did this, I did this, and I'd like a
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: chance to go back and finish the job. That kind
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: of thing, I just personally, me, just me I would
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: respond to that far better than coming out with my.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Opponent took money from somebody who was a friend of Epstein.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Wow at Epstein thing. I hope it's got enough gas
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: to get you to the finish line. A two on
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: nine eight eighty six men member A two WTV and
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Pete you're on sixth n WTV and Hi, Hey, so as.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Usual you're spot on, but tonight you're almost spot on.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: I think what what you either meant to say or
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: what you forgot to say, is that Shared Brown is
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: associating Epstein's friend with John Houston. When that's what you said,
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: what what you think what you should have said was
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: that he's associating uh, John Houston's friend with Epstein and Trump,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: and especially if the whole uh, if the Epstein files
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: get released before the election, and if Trump is you know,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: it gets put in a worse light than he is
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: now with the with the whole thing, if things, then
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: maybe Shared Brown is banking on on the Epstein files
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: being released and and therefore making anybody associated with it
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: or with a friend of Donald Trump, uh, that that'll
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: make them look bad. And it also I think it's
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: it's also just trying to pray on people's uh some
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: people's dislike for Trump, trying to convince people who are
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: on the fence, uh right now to to vote against
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: John Houston in the fall because of his because of
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump, because of because obviously Donald Trump brings out
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: a lot of strong feelings and people.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Well, the Donald Trump reference is almost an unspoken reference.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: It's it's like listening to somebody from Iran. Everything no
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: matter what you say from Iran, you say, my name
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: is a bit bt blitah dah from Iran, I hear
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: my name is able to go to death to America.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: That's it's always in there, whether they say it out
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: loud or not. And you know, with Donald Trump, Donald
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Trump is Satan. It's at the end of everything a
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Democrat says. It always is. The commercial though Brown does
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: it does say that Houston took money from a friend
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: of Jeffrey Epstein, So they like this this guilt by
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: association type thing. What's a friend of Epstein? So eusted
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: must be dirty? And that again. I just John has
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: such a wholesome bring him home and meet the parents
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: to dinner type But I just don't think that's gonna
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: work with him.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Well, I don't think it's so much that he's trying
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: to portray John Houston is being bad. I think it's
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: just trying to portray Trump as being bad and that
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: people are going to vote along. Some people might vote
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: for the Democrat just because of the you know, they
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: don't want to vote for a quote unquote pedophile though
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: nothing's been proven per se. You know, they don't want
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: to just out of principle, they're going to say, Oh no,
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: I'm not I'm you know, I'm not gonna do this
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: because John Houston was. If I vote for John Houston,
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna feel guilty because because you know, the whole
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Epstein thing and some people that might just weigh people's minds.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: So I think it has more to do with Trump
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: than what you're saying. That's right.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: I appreciate to call Pete, thanks very much. I just look,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump is not in any f Steve favorwork that's
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: going to get him in trouble if he were. We
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: know about it. Look, they bugged Trump Tower when he
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: said he was going to run. They faked that. Steele Daalcy.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: I hate to go all with Sean Hannity on you,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: but the steal Dausha, they faked the Clinton campaign. Hillary
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Clinton's people created that paid for that. They faced. They
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: would do anything to keep Donald Trump from becoming president.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: If there was anything in those Epstein papers that pointed
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: to Donald Trump doing anything illicit or what we they
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: he never would have been president. They would have used
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: it against him. They've had what six years now, six
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: years of his first term and were, you know, a
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: year and a half into his second term. They've had
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: plenty of time, so if it was there, it would
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: have been used. That's why I don't think it's there.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: A two one nine eight eighty six, a two one WTV,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: and I just I'm not good with the negative I've
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: just especially this early in the process.
