- 2:44or four three four five fifty at fifty eight Fruit Pharmacy Text three or four
- 2:46nine three five five zero zero. We're away. Our good friend Milly Snyder's
- 2:50here. Milly, just hang out with me one second because I gotta I
- 2:53gotta take care of something here. Little news understand news is coming out now
- 2:57that Jeff's Sandy, the Abinet Secretary with the Western Uton Department of Military Affairs
- 3:02of Public Safety, will be retiring. This statement just coming out within the
- 3:07last thirty minutes or so ago. He Governor Justice actually asked him, according
- 3:14to a published reports, to stay on during the investigation of the state Police
- 3:17and all the happenings there. But he is retiring and a word is the
- 3:22Putnham County Prosecuting Attorney Marks Rosea will be named to replace Jeff Sandy. Now
- 3:28again there is information available on that. Jeff and Hobby working on the story.
- 3:31Hobby is already tweeted out about it. But again, Jeff Sandy,
- 3:35Cabinet Secretary, Western Duton Department of Military Affairs of Public Safety, retiring,
- 3:38apparently going to be replaced by Putnham County Prosecutor Marks Rosea. And that news
- 3:45just breaking in the last little bit. So I have more on that with
- 3:47Hobby and Jeff and the crew coming up a little bit later on. Milly
- 3:51Snyder are a good friend from the Shape shop is here? How are you,
- 3:53dear? I'm wonderful. How are you. I'm doing fine? How
- 3:55to get the news in? You know, that's interesting stuff. So there's
- 4:00always interesting stuff going on right here. The last couple of days especially,
- 4:02there's always interesting stuff going. Well, what's going on with the lovely,
- 4:05talented, the beautiful Millie Snyder. Well, you know, I love going
- 4:10to the Shape Shop every day. You know, I'm fully retired, but
- 4:14I go to work every day. Yeah, I look up the definition of
- 4:16retirement for you, dear now, but it has a different meaning in my
- 4:19heart because I love what I do. But it and the thing that you
- 4:25know, I want people to know is that we're Shape Shop is fresh,
- 4:30clean eating and nothing is processed. But what I really want to talk about
- 4:35it's a very little tiny product that we carry in our shop and we've had
- 4:41it in our shop ever since we began. And what it's called is ham
- 4:46seasoning. Now it is a powder, and if you put it in your
- 4:50green beans or your collared greens or whatever green vegetable you make, you are
- 4:56doing yourself an enormous favor. And that is because you're not using bacon grease
- 5:02or bacon or a hamhawk or the stuff that is deadly corroding our arteries.
- 5:11But by using the ham seasoning, the brown beans taste amazing. Years ago,
- 5:17we had this young couple invite their grandmother for dinner, and they were
- 5:23real nervous because they had never prepared a meal, and they made green beans
- 5:28with the ham seasoning, and she got up, went into the kitchen and
- 5:32looked in the pot to see if there was a hambone in the bottom of
- 5:36the pot, and there wasn't. And that's my point. It's a little
- 5:42tiny jar. It contains ham seasoning, and it could save your life.
- 5:47You might say, wait a minute, Milly, you're going a little far.
- 5:50Wait a minute, Milly, you're going a little too far. No,
- 5:53I'm not. Because it makes those vegetables taste magnificently, but they're not
- 6:00hurting your body. They're not adding insult to more insult by adding saturated fat.
- 6:08We ship this ham seasoning two people in Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia,
- 6:14and we do some shipment somewhere at least once even twice a week.
- 6:19So how does it do it? Just a seasoning. It's like a bullion.
- 6:24It's a powder, but it has ham flavoring. And what we encourage
- 6:29people to do is to use that. Try it, listen. If you
- 6:32don't like it, then don't come back and get another jar. But I
- 6:38promise you that's a guarantee. If you don't like it, don't buy it
- 6:42again. Right, because it's that popular we've had, We've been in the
- 6:46shape shop coming up on I can't believe I'm saying these words forty eight years
- 6:53and people come to us just looking for the ham seasoning. And if we're
- 6:58out of it, all of a sudden, there's a long face. They're
- 7:01sad, depression, said Sam. Absolutely, Now some people have it all
- 7:08figured out. Instead of using ham seasoning and picking on the pig, they're
- 7:13using a turkey leg, or they're using a turkey back, and they're only
- 7:17making it even worse because here, here is my question. When is the
- 7:23last time you saw a skinny turkey barring some sort of disease? Yeah,
- 7:30I think we're not looking disease turkeys. They're not for sale. Okay,
- 7:32well they shouldn't be anyway. Well, so there they think that by using
- 7:36turkey a turkey wing, which is not only totally fat, but covered in
- 7:41all that skin, and the turkey leg and the turkey back. But if
- 7:46you look at everything but the white meat of on the turkey, the whole
- 7:53bird, and I'm not trying to pick on turkeys. Yeah, it's nothing,
- 7:57but you're a turkey hateful, you're turkey and all whatever. I'm not
- 8:01even going to touch that one. Well, but turkey, I love t
- 8:05and we're so excited we found turkeys from our our supplier we've been at We've
- 8:09been without white meat turkey for about a month. It's been difficult to find
- 8:15it, really has. I don't know why. Well, I think it's
- 8:16not the time of the year, because they're fattening them up for I don't
- 8:20want to say later in the year popoids and exactly so. So for all
- 8:28of those um customers who love our two two turkey rap, they are back
- 8:33just as soon as the turkey arrives. But that's not what I'm here to
- 8:35talk about. That's not what she's here to talk I'm here to talk about.
- 8:39Please find out about ham seasoning. Use it in your green being,
- 8:43use it in your brown beans, use it wherever you would normally put bacon
- 8:48or bacon grease, and stop using that. Your doctor will thank you,
- 8:54Your cardiologists will say, what the heck happened here? You're I promise you
- 8:58that you want the taste. I have grandsons when they come to my house
- 9:05when they're in Charleston. And I make green beans, if I haven't seasoned
- 9:09them with the ham seasoning, I get this resounding no, thank you.
- 9:13They don't want to eat the green beans, just plain Okay, So you
- 9:18put emphasis right, all right? So so you talk about put them in
- 9:20the green beans or your brown beans or or whatever. What are some other
- 9:24uses that that you could use the ham season Are any number of things I
- 9:30like to bake or broil vegetables? Yeah, I love I love some vegetables,
- 9:35and I use a little bit of olive oil, but I sprinkle also
- 9:37a ham seasoning on that. And you want to talk about good, It
- 9:41gives it a whole new meaning. Plus it's nothing. And the olive oil
- 9:46actually cleanses your arteries. And please stop using vegetable oil or peanut oil or
- 9:52somebody else's oil that is hurting you. Motor oil. Oh well, I
- 9:58was gonna say no, no valvolin products, but I will say that olive
- 10:03oil. You know, I got a friend that owns a restaurant. I'll
- 10:05get a I'll get a free plug in from Loaf Familia and Huntington. Some
- 10:09of my best friends down there own that restaurant. The Hagey family. They're
- 10:11fantastic food and they have started importing their olive oil from Italy and selling it
- 10:18by the bottle and doing their own brands. I wonder if they're doing it
- 10:20the Trapan Oil Italy. I don't know. I just know what's good.
- 10:24I mean, that's the real deal. That a lot of olive oil that
- 10:28we lie in the supermarket is not one hundred percent olive oil because they mix
- 10:33it with other stuff. Because if you're selling olive oil for twelve thirteen dollars,
- 10:37it's not the real deal. No, it's expensive if you get real
- 10:39olive oil. My wife and I, while on vacation last year in Myrtle
- 10:43Beach, went to a little shop that sold nothing but olive oil. The
- 10:48cheapest bottle that they had at anything in there was fifty five dollars. That
- 10:52was the cheapest bottle of anything We sell to Trapanel in our shape shop.
- 10:56Yeah, and it's not cheap, but it is a fine product, all
- 11:01right for we let you go. We sold us on the ham seasoning.
- 11:03I know you've been out at about all summers and you've been Regatta and Levy
- 11:09and where else are you going? Anyway? To date, we're doing live
- 11:13on the levee. We're actually open to anybody who wants our food truck.
- 11:18Please call, let's make arrangements because we are ready to come and just do
- 11:22what you would like us to do. Because the food truck and the things
- 11:26we're making. Most days we sold out. Yeah, and it was exciting.
- 11:31It was a great regatta, it was indeed, and and you folks,
- 11:35of course we're a big part of that. Any new menu items at
- 11:37the Shape Shop, if you get people have let me just say this,
- 11:41people, sometimes I think forget that you can go if you're looking for a
- 11:43you're in Charleston and you're looking for a different lunch destination. It's not just
- 11:46a store where you go in to buy stuff and take it home. You

- 12:03go complete meals and it's nothing more than and I don't want to I don't
- 12:09want to make that a minor statement. It's actually one of the greatest things
- 12:13that's happened. Every week she is creating brand new menu items and they're complete
- 12:18meals, they're ready to go. Well if it was take them home,
- 12:20pop them in the microwave or pop chain, get them out of the plastic
- 12:24container and put them in something, put them in the oven. But such
- 12:28delicious things that we are creating shrimp on rice with broccoli. Yesterday it was
- 12:35stuffed peppers with and we don't use beef. We use ground turkey. You
- 12:41would never know the different good part of the turkey of course, okay part

- 15:56Dave. So now it's it's just audio, just another way you can get
- 16:00the show. You can get it on YouTube. Joe Stevens is with us.
- 16:03How are you man? Good morning. I think our mother, both
- 16:07of our mothers would agree we both have faces for radio. Yeah, I've
- 16:10never heard that before, Joe. I never get tired of hearing that about
- 16:12the face for radio. Yeah, it's you know when you're old Lake,
- 16:17You and I you keep hearing it. A bunk? All right? I
- 16:19gotta ask you before we get into what's going on with this catfish tournament?
- 16:23How are your orioles doing. The O's are playing well, they're on a
- 16:27They've lost two games to the Dodgers up up in Baltimore, but they've got
- 16:33a one oh five start today and they still have the third best record in
- 16:37the Major League. Well, I don't know what. The Red just need
- 16:40to diet back a couple of weeks when they were playing lights out because I
- 16:44mean I think they've they lost two. They had to complete game that the
- 16:48game had to be stopped because of weather. They finished that game in the
- 16:52regular scheduled game. I think they lost two to the Giants. One was
- 16:55a real like eleven to ten or something like that last night. So they
- 16:59just gotta get that magic back. I had a couple of weeks ago,
- 17:00all right, so let's get away. We always have to get a little
- 17:03baseball in there. But let's talk about some catfishing. And this is the
- 17:07good kind, by the way, that you've got going on. This is
- 17:11you're a big tournament going on Friday right now or lake. Talk about it.
- 17:14Yeah, each summer we have two tournaments, two catfish tournaments, one
- 17:18in July and one in August at in the county Canall County's largest lake and
- 17:25it's right now our lake here in Nitro, And we've got our first catfish
- 17:29tournament coming up this Friday, July twenty first, and it will get underway
- 17:33with registration at about four or thirty at the lake's gazebo. Fishing will start
- 17:38at six o'clock and going to eleven o'clock. Everyone is invited to come on
- 17:44down and it's fifteen dollars to enter. Children under twelve are free. There's
- 17:49a two pole limit for each contestant. And just between you and I,
- 17:53Dave, we're not going to tell anybody else, but Councilman Bill Javins made
- 18:00sure that the lake was stocked with about I don't know, four hundred and
- 18:03fifty to five hundred pounds of catfish last week. We didn't want to do
- 18:07it this week. We wanted to be a bit hungry for the fisherman tomorrow
- 18:12on Friday night. So Councilman Javin's made sure that we're stocked and everything is
- 18:18going to be ready for Friday night. By the way, a fishing license
- 18:22is required, all right, make sure that you got that before you go
- 18:25in, So Joe. For the uninitiated, how exactly do catfish tournaments work?
- 18:30Well, we will take your best five fish and you will be weighed
- 18:34in on at about eleven o'clock your best. If you don't catch five year
- 18:41two or one or what have you, and it's your best weight, you're
- 18:45you know, the total weight coming up at eleven o'clock and you will.
- 18:49We will have first place, second place, third place, and right now
- 18:53the winning totals. There's two hundred dollars for first, one hundred dollars for
- 18:59second, and seven five dollars for third. But what we do is we
- 19:02with the amount of people that we register, we take that money that we
- 19:06get for registration and put it back in the winnings. Like last year the
- 19:11first place fisherman when the July got four hundred dollars. So it's not a
- 19:15money maker. We put it back to the fishermen that come out to have
- 19:19a good time Tomorrow night or Friday night. Rather, we will also have
- 19:23folks from the greater Nitro area Quanas Club out there, Rivers to ridges,
- 19:30folks will be out there. DNR will be out there, kind of some
- 19:33information for folks and everything, and paddle boats will be available too. But
- 19:37that's another day, another time we can talk about that, Dave. But
- 19:41just a lot of things happening at right now. Or Lake, which again
- 19:45is the county's largest lake. And of course I had Johnny Rutherford yesterday Joe
- 19:49talking about the pickleball events this weekend. So I mean they're expecting I think
- 19:53it was something like ten eleven states or something like that, they're coming in
- 19:56for this pickleball Turnibud as far as ways Zuri in Arkansas. So Nitro is
- 20:03going to kind of be the place to be this weekend. Joe, Oh,
- 20:04without a day. You got the fishing tournament on Friday night, but
- 20:08we also with the also Friday night over at the Nitro Athletic Complex is the
- 20:15community Night which Metro nine one one is putting on in conjunction with the pickleball
- 20:21tournament, and there's no competition going on other than the courts will be open,
- 20:26the pool will be open. If you want to learn about pickleball,
- 20:29here's your chance. We've got a bunch of people out there that really know
- 20:32how to play the game, and we'll have the courts open for everybody to
- 20:36enjoy. We'll have some music going on, we'll have some food out there,
- 20:40So the Athletic Complex will be a happening place. But about two miles
- 20:45away you can also go and drop your lure in and maybe catch catfish and
- 20:49win some money. I mean, again, so many different things going on
- 20:53over there in Nitro. And again Joe Stevens from the city Nitro is joining
- 20:56us now. And I love that with this catfish tournament that you guys do
- 21:00a kind of go the extra mile to try to get the kids involved in
- 21:03this as well, because, as you know, anything that you can do
- 21:06to get kids out of the house and haven't put down the devices is a
- 21:10good thing. Oh, without a doubt. Last year, I'll never forget
- 21:14three um little girls came up all under the age of twelve, and they're
- 21:18riding reels, look like something that you and I might be having with a
- 21:23bunch of radio cords and microphone cords and stuff. They look like rats ness,
- 21:30is what I want to say. And they took them over to a
- 21:33local uh young man that comes in with a bait and tackle shop, and
- 21:37he took care of them and they actually ended up winning. It was really
- 21:42cool. It was really really cool. So uh yeah, and we have
- 21:47some kids prizes too, and we have a raffle. We've tagged some fish,
- 21:51so if you get a tag fish, you win some money there.
- 21:52It's just like you said, you know, from any age on up,
- 21:57come on out and just spend some time at the lake. Indeed, all
- 22:02right, Joe, Where can people learn more about this? Real easy?
- 22:06Just go to our facebook page, the City of Nitrous facebook page. We've
- 22:11got all the information right there, and you can also go to visit nitro
- 22:15dot com and we've got all the information right there. David, and hey,
- 22:19by the way, since you're such a pro with a pickleball and everything,
- 22:25I think I will extend an invitation for you and I both to learn
- 22:29at the same time and be laughed at together. Well, you know whatdn't
- 22:33be the first time we've been laughed at together, all right, Joe,
- 22:37hats off to you and Mayor case Vault. By the way, he'll be
- 22:40our mayor next week on Mayor Monday. So I appreciate everything you take a
- 22:44time with your schedule to be here and everything that you're doing for the community,
- 22:47because it's not only benefits Nitro, Joe, as you wouldn't well know,
- 22:49but it also brings a lot of people in from a lot of different
- 22:52areas out Charleston, Saint Alban's Day's Valley, Charleston into the area into Nitro
- 22:56to see what's going on there. I appreciate you being here, man,
- 22:57best of luck with everything you got it. Let's go out, all right.
- 23:02That's Joe Stevens from the City of Nitro. It's nine thirty five eighty
- 23:04Live while we're talking about baseball. Five eighty Live is presented in part by
- 23:07your hometown baseball team, the Charleston Dirty Birds. A couple of games for
- 23:11the Birds today. They were actually rained out at Go Mart Ballpark last night,
- 23:14so they already had a daytime game scheduled for today, so they're actually
- 23:18going to play two at Ballpark starting at twelve oh five today for tickets,
- 23:22schedules, gear promotions, and more of his Dirty Birds Baseball dot com.
- 23:27A little follow up to the interview I had yesterday with Johnny Rutherford for Metro
- 23:30nine one one and all the happenings with a pickleball tournament going on in Nitro
- 23:34this weekend, and we kind of mentioned it's just in passing yesterday and Johnny
- 23:38sent me some more information later in the day. As part of this pickleball
- 23:42coop, this is right up your alley. They're doing a pickle eating contest
- 23:47as part of the big doings going on there. If you can eat a
- 23:49lot of pickles in a short amount of time, you could win yourself up
- 23:53to one hundred dollars in cash. Now, I don't know exactly how many
- 23:56pickles one has to eat to eat or to win a pickle eating contest.
- 24:00I don't know whether they're sweet, they're sour, or whatever. But yeah,
- 24:04one hundred bucks cash, man, I'm not one hundred percent sure that
- 24:08one hundred bucks cash is enough to make me eat a whole bunch of pickles.
- 24:11I love pickles, but I can't imagine eating like thirty of them or
- 24:14something. But do you have to eat the whole thing? Do you come
- 24:17to them as it slices? What do we do with bread and butter?
- 24:18Bread and butter would be hard, yeah, sweet and heavy? Yeah,
- 24:22I mean there would be indeed, But to hey, you know, there's
- 24:23people out there that live for this stuff. Maybe you could do in a
- 24:26hurry. Possibly, possibly, But I'm not a pickle eating expert, although
- 24:30I do like pickles as I like everything. Who am I kidding? So
- 24:33that's all part of it as well. All right, So it's twenty one
- 24:37minutes away from ten. Want to get into something here a little bit.
- 24:40I had so many things I want to get into. Obviously, I want
- 24:41to address the Charleston police situation coming up. Also if I get time a
- 24:47little bit later on. I don't spend a whole lot of time on this
- 24:48show talking about things that are of national interest national discussion, unless it's politics.
- 24:56Of course, we talk Trump, Biden and things of that nature.
- 24:59But I don't spend a whole lot of time doing that. But I did.
- 25:03There's a couple of controversies brewing online right now, and you know,
- 25:06you pick up your phone, whether you're on the Twitter machine or you're on
- 25:08the spacebook or whatever, and you look at it and you see all everybody
- 25:12talking about these things. And it has to do with a couple of entertainers
- 25:19the world of country music, Miranda Lambert being one and Jason Aldeen being the
- 25:23other. Now, of course, they're both been around wild ten twenty years,
- 25:29both of them I think in the country music games, so not exactly
- 25:30new artists, but they both are surrounded in controversy right now, totally unrelated.
- 25:36Miranda Lambert's has to do with her stopping a concert halfway through because people
- 25:42were taking selfies and it was distracting her. And I mean, I don't
- 25:47know that I have seen anything that's taken over social media in a long time
- 25:52that had as many people divided as this that that's one the other not so
- 25:56much social media related, although there was a lot of chatter about it.
- 25:59And this has to do with country singer Jason Aldine and its songs. It's
- 26:03been out for a couple of months now and it's called tried That in a
- 26:07Small Town and the video has troubled some people's cmts pulled the video because of
- 26:12where it was filmed. It was filmed in front of a courthouse in Tennessee
- 26:15that was the spot of some lynching incidents. And basically the whole concept of
- 26:19the song is a lot of things we see in bigger cities. Tried that
- 26:22in a small town and see what happens. Well, people are all butt
- 26:25heard over the thing, and uh, you know, I don't like using
- 26:29the term cancel culture, but they're going after Aldine on this. So if
- 26:32I get time, I'll get into that coming up a little bit later on.
- 26:34All right, let's get to this Charleston police situation, the latest with
- 26:37the Chief tight hunt, and I'll get to that right after this. Five

- 30:30Woods, who was listening to us talking about the pickle contest coup and he
- 30:34texts me and said, I may have to enter that. What he's gonna
- 30:37ender the pickle cont maybe as there's some munions in there too. Then I
- 30:41think what he could win if if you put onions an air wood Wood,
- 30:45he will definitely eat it. All right. So, um, this situation
- 30:48with the Charleston Bleachs Chief tie count allegations made, of course, you know
- 30:52the story about a Monday night at the Charleston City Council meeting by a councilperson,
- 30:56Shannon Snodgrass of inappropriate behavior on the part of Chief Hunt. And as
- 31:03we talked about on the air yesterday, and Hobby followed up on a debid
- 31:07yesterday he actually had former Mayor Danny Jones on the show weighing in on it.
- 31:11The investigation was undertaken and the city said it's an HR issue, and
- 31:21I would agree with that, And all the details are out there right now.
- 31:23Some inappropriate contact, alleged inappropriate contact between Chief of Police Hunt and a
- 31:32female. Not going to get into all that. It's all out there.
- 31:34You can read it anywhere you want. And my take on the whole thing
- 31:41is I was talking to somebody, actually, a reporter that called me actually
- 31:42this morning, was asking about it. I have no idea what happened or
- 31:51may or may not have happened, So I'm not going to speculate on that
- 31:53until something official is released. Now, I will say this and hear me
- 32:00out on this. These allegations could be true. I have no idea,
- 32:06but neither does anyone else at this point. And I'm one who has not
- 32:13always agreed with the good One administration on several topics, and I'm sure that
- 32:19Mayor Goodwe and other members of her staff haven't agreed with me on everything either,
- 32:22and that's okay. But I do also know that there are some people
- 32:29in this town that if Mayor Goodwe and her administration cured cancer, they would
- 32:35say it wasn't cured fast enough or done in the right way. They have
- 32:39an agenda, and the agenda is to bring down the good One administration and
- 32:44anyone related to it. Now, I'm not in any way, shape,
- 32:46form or fashion a quota or governor tried to dismiss the allegations made by the
- 32:50woman in the case. Again, I don't know, neither do you or
- 32:54anyone else except for the woman and Chief Hunt. Now. I did reach
- 33:00out to Mayor Goodwin's office yesterday and I invited the mayor or someone from the
- 33:07administration to come on the show to talk about it, and you know it
- 33:13would be that chief of staff Matt Sutton, attorney Kevin Baker, whomever,
- 33:16or the mayor and they decline for now, and I get that. I
- 33:24also did learn in talking to one higher ranking member of the administration that a
- 33:30statement from the city is going to be released at some point, possibly by
- 33:37this afternoon, and I was assured that once that statement is released that someone
- 33:50from the administration would be willing to come on the show to discuss it,
- 33:55but not until that time. As for what the statement is going to contain,
- 34:00I don't know it's speculation at this point. Again, someone within the
- 34:04administration told me that a statement was going to be released at some point today.
- 34:07We of course will have at WV metrods dot com, WCCHS network dot
- 34:10com, on air and on social media and so on and so forth.
- 34:14Once that statement comes, I was I was kind of led to believe it
- 34:16probably would be sometime this afternoon, but I don't know that for a fact.
- 34:20I know as of now it's not been released. Probably some point in
- 34:22the afternoon. And again, once the statement is released, then we will
- 34:29have it posted all over our social media. It'll be it'll be posted everywhere,
- 34:34and we'll talk about it. And if I can get somebody from the
- 34:37city on the show tomorrow they have agreed at least a principle that they'll come
- 34:42on to talk about it, then we'll do that at that time. But
- 34:45you know, it's for me. I'm not in the business of arguing either
- 34:49for or against allegations that may or may not be true. I will say
- 34:53this that Chief Hunt and my dealings with him, has always proven to be
- 34:58a stand up kind of guy. But but who knows. Um, I'll
- 35:04wait till the investigation results are released before I pass judgment on him or or
- 35:07anyone else. And and and I truly wish others would too. Now,
- 35:14when the statement comes out from the city, that's not going to be to
- 35:15be all ind all, okay, that's just going to be their take on
- 35:19what happened. Will there be disciplinary actions? Um, you know, I
- 35:22don't know had they already taken they could have already taken place. For all
- 35:25we know. Statement will come out and we will we'll take it from there.
- 35:32I mean, that's that's that's that's about it. Um and um so
- 35:37all right, I got a couple of text here. Uh, let let
- 35:43me do one other thing and I'll Sometimes when you get into situations like this,
- 35:45folks, it's not easy hosting a show and getting texts at the same
- 35:50time, because you have to have the ability to read the text and say,
- 35:52Okay, I can say that on the air, or I can't say
- 35:54that on the air, because remember, you know, we have some we
- 35:58have some journalistic standards here. Um, not everyone does, that's on the
- 36:01airwaves. But but but what we do when we gotta we have a whole
- 36:07trophy case full of awards to prove that we actually have standards. Not everyone
- 36:12that takes to the air in this town does, UM, but we try
- 36:16to. So we'll wait to the statement comes out. Uh Hobby, UM
- 36:22if you've heard his commentary uh this morning so they had on the website,
- 36:24or you can read the text of it either one UM on all of our
- 36:28social media as well. UM. Hobby was a little bit unsure as to
- 36:30why the FBI UM had gotten involved in this. UM. You know.
- 36:37Again, I don't know. We'll find out. I will say, if
- 36:39you want to read all the salacious details of it, something we're not really
- 36:44into getting into. But you can pick up a copy of the things that
- 36:47mail this morning because they go into all the all the all the details.
- 36:52Probably not going to do that here. But if things were done on city
- 36:54time, use the city resources, then yeah, it's it's huge problem because
- 36:59when you're public employee, in this case, a city employee on city time,
- 37:01dealing with taxpayer dollars, then yeah, it becomes an entire issue,
- 37:07an entire different issue, entirely entire issue. Different entirely thinks what the man
- 37:10said. So I'm not going to beat to propob your dead horse, but
- 37:15we don't know what we don't know the city will release a statement and we
- 37:17will take her from there and hopefully I'll be able to have a someone from
- 37:22the city on tomorrow to address it even further. Texas Shanna Snodgrass loves attention.
- 37:31That is the city council person in question. So far, it says
- 37:35a texture. I've not seen one ounce of proof, screenshots or text or
- 37:38anything. Regardless. The chief did not use his power chief a police,
- 37:43to course the woman into doing something she did not want to do. So
- 37:47that's according to a texture. It's a textra statement. Fivety Live presented a

- 38:10My guest host on Friday, you know every Friday on the show, I
- 38:15have a different co host on this week it is going to be Brian Hughes,
- 38:17Meteorologist Brian Hughes giving him a break from the regatta to come in to
- 38:23to just kind of hang out with me this Friday. And that's one of
- 38:25the questions I'm going to ask Brian Hughes, is what the heck is going
- 38:29on with this weather. I mean, we go, we go for like
- 38:31seemingly months with no rain whatsoever, and then every day it's almost like tornadic
- 38:37activity. I mean, you know, I live in Putnam County and over
- 38:40in the Windfield area over and a buffalo at El Lenore. Those people really
- 38:44got hammered. Not so much where I live in Day's Valley, but man,
- 38:46they really got hammered. We had a little bit of a power outage
- 38:50and a TV and internet outage we had to deal with ourselves last night.
- 38:52Many other people don't have power at all in something areas. So we'll have
- 38:57the latest numbers from the newsroom coming up on that. A little bit later
- 39:01on on tomorrow's show. I'm going to have Americans for Prosperity one of their
- 39:07spokespeople, Crescent Gallagher, on the show. Now they are out with a
- 39:12statement on some endorsements, and Hobby tweeted about this morning that group is announcing
- 39:17and actually they already have announced. It's already out there that they are endorsing.
- 39:21This is Americans for Prosperity, And you know, I've had Crescent on
- 39:23the show, and I've had Jason Huffman on the show and others as well
- 39:27from the group, they are announcing that they are endorsing Patrick Morrissey for governor
- 39:31as Attorney General Patrick Morrissey, And it does seem a little bit early to
- 39:36me, but I'm sure they have their reasons for that, and I'm going
- 39:38to get into that with Crests are coming up on the show tomorrow. But
- 39:43so Americans for Prosperities is has come out and announced that they are endorsing Patrick
- 39:47Morrissey for governor said of West Virginia. Also in tomorrow's show, University of
- 39:53Charleston President Marty Roth's going to be here and again hopefully a statement from the
- 39:57City of Charleston with once the tight Hunt statement comes out a little bit later
- 40:01on in the day. All right, gonna take a break, they'll be
- 40:06back right after this. Five eighty Live is brought to you a part by

- 43:12I what I was talking about there Texas Day. We were talking about the
- 43:15sexual advances on city time, which need to be investigated. Agreed, But
- 43:21what says a text or what about Chief Hunt running a construction company? Does
- 43:23he really own around a construction company? How does that work? Mess with
- 43:27him on being chief of police? I don't know. I mean I've had
- 43:30I've had Ty Hunt on the show of several times. I did not know.
- 43:34I don't know him that well. I mean we speak and things I
- 43:37have to say. We're friends, probably not, and we're not enemies either.
- 43:40Tend to not make enemies of police officers anywhere. But I did not

- 44:14whole lot of national things unless it's political things. But when something totally dominates
- 44:19the internets, as what these two stories have. You know, with everything
- 44:22going on in the world, Warren, Ukraine, presidential politics and so on,
- 44:28so forth, you know, the natural disasters, whatever, the whole
- 44:32world is transfixed with Miranda Lambert right now. So here's the story about this.
- 44:37Apparently, Miranda Lambert country music superstar who I would love, by the
- 44:42way, and she was doing a concert and she was distracted by some ladies
- 44:49that were taking selfies in front. And the entire internet apparently has lost their
- 44:57collective minds over this because Miranda Lambert did which she stopped the concert. And
- 45:05apparently, from what I was told, it was during like one of her
- 45:07more poignant ballad type songs. She stopped the concert because she was being distracted
- 45:15by these ladies that we're taking selfies. Now, the ladies that were doing
- 45:19the selfies obviously because this is what we do. In twenty twenty three,
- 45:22have taken to TikTok and they were in all the social media. They're on
- 45:25Good Morning America talking about it and so on over because I guess you know,
- 45:29they've somehow been harmed by this whole thing. People are calling Miranda Lambert
- 45:34a diva, comments like I paid for a ticket, I can do whatever
- 45:38I want, blah blah blah, and that I mean, okay, by
- 45:45that logic, if I buy a ticket, I should be able to play
- 45:46drums. Right, I bought a ticket. Once I'm in the door,
- 45:51I can do whatever I want, right, I mean. This whole society,
- 45:57in my opinion, is getting ridiculous with the phones and with the documenting
- 46:01everything. And I, for one, I'm gonna be that lone voice of
- 46:05about five percent. I said it's divided the Internet. It's about ninety eight
- 46:08percent against Miranda Lambert at this point. I'm in the two percent that says
- 46:12kudos to Miranda Lambert for calling calling this out missus garbage. I am a
- 46:17fan of having no phones at concerts. I love what they did when Dave
- 46:21Chappelle. Dave Chappelle came to Charleston. They gave you a lockbox. Um.
- 46:25Um, they they gave you a lockbox or like a bag, and
- 46:30they said, you know the phone's going here. No phones are allowed now.
- 46:34Coop brought up a really good point here, um, And I will
- 46:37call Miranda Lambert out on this. If she's that bothered by cell phone videos,
- 46:45selfies, whatever, it needs to be stated on the ticket. And
- 46:47I was talked reading in an article about Jack White of the who is adamant
- 46:51about that you do not you do not have a phone out at a Jack
- 46:55White concert at all. But but he puts that on the ticket. And
- 46:59I will I will take Miranda Lambert task for that. I will say,
- 47:02you know you do. She does need to probably do a better job of
- 47:06saying no cell phones allowed period. But I mean, I don't know,
- 47:10It's like, in a big picture of things, is it really something you
- 47:13know that to be that concerned about. But a lot of people are.
- 47:17And and you've heard me when I when I talked about this with the with
- 47:21the Chappelle Show in Charleston, because that was I mean, that was just
- 47:23a sudden thing, like it just popped up out of nowhere. And but
- 47:27he put it out there and he said, there will be no there's no
- 47:30cell phones allowed. They go into a bag. You keep the bags.
- 47:32It's not like they take it and do anything with it, and when you're
- 47:35ready to go, they unlock it. And that's what happened with the Chapel
- 47:37concert. Um. But I mean, I can't tell you the number of
- 47:40concerts, and I don't go to a whole lot of concerts, maybe a
- 47:43couple of years, but I've been to that you simply could not. And
- 47:45it's not about for the most part, it's not about people just taking a
- 47:50quick picture. It's about running down. And I saw us at the Clay
- 47:52Center to concert my wife and I attended running down and taking a picture of
- 47:57yourself in front of the stage. You know, we're too big se as
- 48:00a society documenting the moment as opposed to living in a moment. We don't
- 48:06We don't really care whether we enjoy it as long as other people know we
- 48:08enjoyed it. So put down the phone and enjoy your life. Another story.
- 48:16And suddenly I feel like Rob Reel from our sister station here Superstar Country
- 48:20kwus with all this talking country music. But if you're just a story about
- 48:22country music. Singer Jason Auden's new song. It's called I liked the song.
- 48:28I love it. It's called Try that in a Small Town. CMT
- 48:30has pulled the video because they someone found it defensive and so some of the
- 48:37lyrics and I'm not gonna I'm certainly not gonna sing it, so don't worry
- 48:39about that. But some of the lyrics are sucker punch somebody on a sidewalk,
- 48:45cardjack and old lady at a red light, pull a gun on the
- 48:47owner of a liquor store. And you think it's cool, We'll act a
- 48:50fool if you like, cuss out a cop, spit in his face,
- 48:53stomp on the flag and light it up. Yeah, you think you're tough,
- 48:57We'll try that in a small town. And so basically that's the whole
- 49:00concept of the song is. And I've heard the song countless times on our
- 49:06on our stations here. Um, I never thought the thing in the world.
- 49:09I thought it was just another celebration of small town life, which is
- 49:13about ninety eight percent to one country music is these days, which whatever.
- 49:17But now CMT's pulled the video. Uh, they say that that it's offensive.
- 49:23Uh, And and I guess there was a part of the video that
- 49:27was filmed at a courthouse in Tennessee where there had been some lynching going on.
- 49:30Now, Jason Auding, I will say, and I you know,
- 49:34I can name maybe two or three songs Jason Alding did not a huge fan.
- 49:37I give him credit for what he's done. He's owning this thing.
- 49:39He's coming out and saying, no, I'm sorry if you're offitted by it.
- 49:42So what this is, This is my mindset and the mindset of a
- 49:45lot of people in this country that if you come to our town and you
- 49:49try to do these things that we have done, that we've seen in larger
- 49:52cities, you're gonna get called out for it. At um um Coop said
- 49:59the small out of making Georgia. Well, the video was filmed in Tennessee,
- 50:01and he was talking about a small town, a small town in general,
- 50:05not a specific small town. It's yeah, that's where he grew up.
- 50:07I get that, Coop, But hey, I say, you know,
- 50:12more power to you, uh you know, and just do you all
- 50:15right? Uh? Texas? The unspoken issue with the chief is this,
- 50:23why does he not make enough money that he doesn't have to have a side
- 50:27gig. Well, I'm not getting into city finances. I don't have any
- 50:30idea what what what chief unt makes and it's uh, it's none of my
- 50:34business. Uh, Texas tex says, Uh. I read it was more
- 50:39than just a selfie. I read they had lights and was essentially a photo
- 50:43shoot going on near the stage. Whatever it was, don't do it,
- 50:45I mean, simply don't do it. Enjoy the concert, um, Texas.
- 50:52I remember when Dwayne and Rerun dropped their recording device at a Doobie Brothers
- 50:57show. The band stopped, the whole show. Is very embatted, embarrassing
- 51:00for Dwayne and Rerun. Obscure Texters. Yes, I love it, but
- 51:05I actually remember that episode too. I thought that was really interesting if you
- 51:07go back and you watch that rerun. No pun intended that replay is that
- 51:13they were recording a concert on the type of recorder we had in the nineteen
- 51:15seventies. That's about the length of one hand or the other. Like they're
- 51:19gonna get quality on that. But anyway, Dave said, or Texas,
- 51:23Dave sounds like he's talking about a Republican today. I'm not sure what that
- 51:30means. The girl's taking selfie's had great seats up front and if you see
- 51:34the video, all they did was stand up together with her in the middle
- 51:37of the background on stage. So they were not distraction distracting her at all,
- 51:39Yes they were. I have not seen the video, but based on
- 51:43that description, that description, yes, one, if she's up there trying
- 51:47to sing a song, a poignant ballad type song, set your rear end
- 51:52down and be respectful, Texas, all deanas from a town with about one
- 51:58hundred and fifty thousand people anywhere three thousand dollars boots. He doesn't know what
- 52:01a small town is for a small town life is like, Yeah, that's
- 52:06that's that's a fair point, all right. My thanks to Joe Stevens and
