She couldn't didn't have any feeling, 871 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 6: and she it was really scary for a few minutes 872 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 6: there with Kelsey Mitchell. Yeah, she says, Uh, she had 873 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 6: no feeling, no movement from her lower extremities for up 874 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,840 Speaker 6: to five to seven seconds during the incident, and so 875 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 6: she was already uh walking. Now she's up better, She's 876 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:42,839 Speaker 6: walking and moving at a slow plate at a slow, 877 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 6: slow pace again. But geez, that's got to be scary. 878 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 6: Your body just locks up and you can't feel it 879 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 6: for a second, and ain't She had to be carted 880 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:54,280 Speaker 6: off the floor. 881 00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 7: So let's hope she gets better and she can get 882 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 7: back out there. But I don't know. 883 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 6: She may not play again this season even if are 884 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 6: they still in it? Are they still in the tournament? 885 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 6: The Indiana Fever, I don't know. But I can tell 886 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,840 Speaker 6: you who's not in any type of tournament. That's the 887 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:24,919 Speaker 6: Cincinnati Reds. After yesterday's I'm still scratching my head over 888 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 6: bases loaded, nobody out, and you can get the ball 889 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 6: to the outfield, so a guy can just tag up 890 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 6: from third and get in, or hit a single to 891 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 6: the shortstop or second basement so that they would have 892 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 6: to be forced to make a play in second or 893 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,280 Speaker 6: first and not throw the home so the guy can score. 894 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,239 Speaker 6: I mean, there's just so many things. You can even 895 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 6: bunt the run in if necessary. What happened to trying 896 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 6: to lay a butnt down? Somebody said the fever they're out, okay, 897 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,640 Speaker 6: so the fever's out of it, all right? They got 898 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 6: to beat the fever lost and they're out of it. 899 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 6: But they did pretty good without Caitlyn Clark, though I 900 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:15,919 Speaker 6: thought they did great without her. Yes, they did great. 901 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,879 Speaker 6: They beat the Atlanta Dream. I think it's the Atlanta Dream. 902 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 6: These teams may I can't keep up with the name. 903 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:28,719 Speaker 6: So these NBA teams, I can't keep up with those names. Yeah, 904 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:34,400 Speaker 6: but anyway, they're out of the playoffs. But Kelsey Mitchell 905 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 6: carried that team after Caitlyn Clark went down. Kelsey Mitchell 906 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 6: carried the entire team, and she's to be commended for that. 907 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 6: I think she's from what Princeton High School? Princeton. 908 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, so there you have it. 909 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 6: There you have it. So you know, there was a 910 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 6: time where, you know, the Reds actually kept us going 911 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 6: these last few weeks and the Bengals let us down. Normally, 912 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 6: I'm looking for the Oh, I can't wait till the 913 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 6: Bengals season start, because these Reds are killing me. They're 914 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 6: in last place and they don't have anything to play for. 915 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 6: At the end of August, it's they're out. 916 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 7: It's over for them. 917 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 6: This year, they kept us going and the Bengals let 918 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 6: us down. And I was more interested in what the 919 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 6: Reds were doing then what the Bengals were doing. 920 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 7: Man, so. 921 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:32,479 Speaker 6: Man, I'm telling you, it's just crazy, crazy how things 922 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 6: turned out this year. And the Reds let us down. 923 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,720 Speaker 6: Couldn't win one game. Everybody else won one game.

We couldn't manufacture runs when 930 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 6: we had people on base. Couldn't manufacture runs were people 931 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 6: were on base and we could have stayed in it, 932 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 6: could not stay in in the game. 933 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 7: It's crazy. 934 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 6: It's just crazy. 935 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 7: All right, Let's go to uh Let's see Steve Reese. 936 00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 6: Steve Reese on the real side.

Tell us a little bit about 1578 01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:52,519 Speaker 6: your business. 1579 01:24:52,880 --> 01:24:55,559 Speaker 23: So when I left Channel nine in two thousand and seven, 1580 01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 23: I decided to start my own business to help companies 1581 01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 23: and organizeations and government tell their stories. And then having 1582 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,559 Speaker 23: served on city council, I certainly know there's a lot 1583 01:25:06,640 --> 01:25:09,920 Speaker 23: of great stories in government, but they never get told 1584 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:13,559 Speaker 23: because the media, as you know, is not that interested 1585 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:17,040 Speaker 23: in the good stories. So it really makes sense for 1586 01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:20,800 Speaker 23: those entities to hire somebody like me. Let me do 1587 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:23,840 Speaker 23: your story for you. You can put it on your website, 1588 01:25:24,120 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 23: and then we can also provide that video to the media. 1589 01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:31,600 Speaker 23: TV people are so stretched these days, they don't have 1590 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:32,160 Speaker 23: time to. 1591 01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:33,599 Speaker 6: Really shoot a lot of stuff. 1592 01:25:33,960 --> 01:25:36,439 Speaker 7: But if you give them great video to use in 1593 01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:38,439 Speaker 7: their story, it can work. 1594 01:25:39,120 --> 01:25:42,400 Speaker 23: So I love just helping people tell their stories. 1595 01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 6: Unlike the days of the iteamy, it's the opposite of 1596 01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 6: the it team. 1597 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:52,080 Speaker 23: Although you know, I did a documentary last year called 1598 01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 23: Living with Landslides for Hillside Trust and they commissioned me 1599 01:25:55,920 --> 01:25:58,840 Speaker 23: to do it. There was a little bit of investigative 1600 01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:02,120 Speaker 23: reporting in that, which was fun to really look deeply 1601 01:26:02,280 --> 01:26:02,840 Speaker 23: into things. 1602 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:04,599 Speaker 7: But I love doing. 1603 01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,600 Speaker 23: Documentaries, and you know, I covered the city when they 1604 01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:10,640 Speaker 23: built the first net zero energy police station in the 1605 01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:14,120 Speaker 23: whole country and that ended up going on PBS. So 1606 01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:17,720 Speaker 23: it was great publicity for the city of Cincinnati doing something. 1607 01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:20,439 Speaker 7: Really great and great for you to be able to 1608 01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:20,880 Speaker 7: film it. 1609 01:26:21,520 --> 01:26:23,519 Speaker 23: Yeah, although I had to raise the money to do it. 1610 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:26,040 Speaker 7: I'n believable.

If all those people that were 1620 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:58,560 Speaker 23: so angry are really going to follow through on what 1621 01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,679 Speaker 23: the threat was. We're gonna make sure you you other folks, 1622 01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:04,719 Speaker 23: we don't vote for you.
