1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,400
Speaker 1: So violence is still out of control in the city

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: of Indianapolis. No new news to you, but what are

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: your lawmakers trying to do about It's Kennelly Casey Show.

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: I'm Rob Casey's here. Let's go to the WIBC hotline.

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: Our friend Josh Bain from the Indianapolis City County Council

6
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: joins us. Now, the Republicans on the City County Council

7
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: have a new proposal out to try to help with violence.

8
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: We'll see if it'll do any good, Josh joins us now,

9
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: Josh Bain, Hello, Hey, good morning.

10
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 2: All right, so there was.

11
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: A big I got a press conference or get together

12
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: or whatever, and Michael Paul Hart, the leader of the

13
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: Republicans on the City County Council, had a big unveil

14
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,639
Speaker 1: on plans that deals specifically with how to curb out

15
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: of control youth youth violating curfew.

16
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:43,639
Speaker 2: Tell us about it.

17
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, I do just want to point out there

18
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 3: are three proposals with this. The one you're referring to

19
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 3: with youth violence is a very targeted proposal. I think

20
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: the other two are going to have much more systematic

21
00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: and impactful changes when it comes to the city County Enterprise.

22
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 3: But this all happened because a little over a month ago,

23
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 3: Council Republicans held a roundtable discussion with our Republican policy

24
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 3: team as well as the chief of Police, the chief

25
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 3: of id the MESA chief, the EMS director, and we

26
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 3: even invited Prosecutor Ryan Meres to that and he did

27
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 3: show up there, and yeah, he showed up, and so

28
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 3: this all three of our ideas sprung from that event.

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:31,559
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's start.

30
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: Let's start with the one that kind of got all

31
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: the attention though, which is the fines for the curfew violation.

32
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 2: Just tell us about that first.

33
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the residency requirementent one has actually guarded

34
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 3: more attention than that one. But with the the fines,

35
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: it's basically a way for us to add teeth to

36
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 3: the proposal that is going to come up for vote

37
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 3: this upcoming Monday night to amend the curfew hours. You know,

38
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: it's different for each day's like weeknights, it's the earlier

39
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 3: than week in like Friday, Saturday night and everything, but

40
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: it basically is our attempt to get parents to wake

41
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 3: up and to be held accountable. We heard in that

42
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 3: committee hearing from counselors on both sides of the aisle,

43
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 3: as well as law enforcement advocates and community nonprofits and

44
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: faith leaders that are having to deal with the out

45
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 3: of control youth. And so this is our attempt to

46
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 3: say parents, it's more than just a fifty dollars fine.

47
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 3: We're actually having serious consequences with this now, where you know,

48
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 3: first violation, it's a warning, that's standard practice, but second

49
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 3: violation it's a five hundred dollars fine. Third and subsequent

50
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 3: violations it's fifteen hundred dollars or more. You know that

51
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 3: that's dependent upon.

52
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Jess. But here's what people are saying. They're saying,

53
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: these people are letting their kids roam the streets at night.

54
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: They're not going to care about to find Do you

55
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: think this they're gonna pay it? How you get enforced it? Like,

56
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: do you think a fine is actually going to prevent

57
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,119
Speaker 1: people who let their kids roam the street of Indianapoli.

58
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: They're gonna be like, well, I'm making fine, so I

59
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: ought to do some actual parenting now.

60
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. So here's here's why I think this is really

61
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 3: important because there's been some i think miss close out

62
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 3: there and everything The county prosecutor doesn't have anything to

63
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 3: do with this. This doesn't have anything to do with

64
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 3: Ryan Meures. This is the city prosecutor. Since it's a citation,

65
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 3: it's a city prosecutor. And ultimately, if they don't end

66
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: up paying the fine, which you know, we're we're gonna

67
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: be working with all of our community partners, faith leaders,

68
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 3: things like that, you know, hopefully to do some education

69
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 3: around this. But they refuse to pay the fine, we

70
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 3: do have the authority to garnish your tax returns, so

71
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: there will be an impact self caraboo Casey.

72
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 4: I'm wondering, Josh, who came up with the fine amount.

73
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it was in consultation with you know, a

74
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 3: lot of our community partners, law enforcement advocates, et cetera.

75
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 3: To say that it has to be something that felt

76
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 3: a fifty dollars fine, even if you know it's lower

77
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 3: income parents or things like that, you know it's just

78
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 3: going to be brushed off. But if you get a

79
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 3: fifteen hundred dollars fine, then you see that in your

80
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 3: you see that garnished on your tax returns, you will

81
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 3: take notice of that.

82
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: Josh Bain from the Indianapol City County Council is our guest.

83
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: We're talking about the proposals the Republicans have put forward

84
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: to try to help with safety and decrease violence in

85
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: the city of Indianapolis. All Right, so we've made it

86
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: through the curfew, the fines. What other parts of this

87
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: plan are the Republicans touting.

88
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 3: Yeah. One of the biggest things that I think has

89
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 3: told our city back for a long time, and this

90
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 3: even goes beyond public safety, it was the fact that

91
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 3: we have residency requirements for city employees. And it's kind

92
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 3: of convoluted in many ways because there's some state law around,

93
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 3: like these people do need to be in uh, you know,

94
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: live in your county. It's a very small percentage of employees,

95
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: but for fifty years we've mandated that if you're a

96
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 3: city employee, you have to live in Marianne County. Does

97
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 3: that include police So there's a state law that exempts

98
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 3: IMPD they can live in surrounding counties. There's a state

99
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: law that also deals with ID so like perfect example,

100
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 3: if you're a firefighter, you can live outside of marionn County.

101
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 3: If you're a mechanic that works on the ambulances and

102
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 3: fire trucks. You have to live in Marianne County.

103
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: Okay, So how does that how would that how would

104
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: making being able to not have to live in Marion County?

105
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: How does that make people safer?

106
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 3: Because it has a direct impact on nine on one

107
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 3: call center operators, there's a direct impact on everything, has

108
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 3: a direct impact on your ability to get equipment onto

109
00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 3: the streets faster. It has a direct impact on every

110
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 3: single department in the city, county enterprise, take take permitting

111
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 3: for me.

112
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: Wait wait wait wait wait, And I love you, Josh,

113
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: but are we saying that we think the people who

114
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,799
Speaker 1: live in Married County are too incompetent to like pull.

115
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 2: This stuff off?

116
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: Is that what we're we're getting at that somehow they're

117
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: in competency is leading to more violence on the streets.

118
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: I'm failing to make the connection here on this.

119
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 3: Because you're increasing your talent pool.

120
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 4: You can go outside the county.

121
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 1: But I mean, it's like, what I'm saying is I

122
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: would I get this and police, as you said, polase

123
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: and fire are exempt, but like, what are these people

124
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 1: not doing properly that's leading to enhanced violence in the

125
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: What are the city employees not doing that is leading

126
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: to enhanced violence in the city of Indianapolis.

127
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the biggest thing that you need to

128
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 3: look at is the fact that we have been short

129
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 3: staffed for a decade now. And look, I'm here, I

130
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 3: can easily say, you know, it's the mayor's fault. No

131
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 3: one wants to come work for the mayor's administration. Obviously

132
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: a lot of that's through, so we have to increase

133
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 3: our talent pool. We have permits that can't go out

134
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 3: for anything. We can't hire enough prosecutors. You know, if

135
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 3: you were to get Ryan meures On here and he

136
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 3: would tell you that his prosecutor staff is already at capacity.

137
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 3: There's state law around how many cases a prosecutor can

138
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: have at any given time. They're at that capacity.

139
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 2: Okay, so it's going to go out. So it's not that.

140
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 3: If we're going to go after these lower level crimes,

141
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: we have to have more prosecutors in the building.

142
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 2: Okay, So that at you we can do that.

143
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: It's not that the employees are in competence. You can't

144
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: get up people that want to work, and thus it's

145
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: delaying services.

146
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 3: Absolutely very good that it's with that on every single department,

147
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 3: all right, now.

148
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: What are you expecting for the budget that will be presented.

149
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, so there's going to be some some rationing that

150
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 3: has to be done. The city's looking at I think

151
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: it's a mid twenties million dollar deficit compared to the

152
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 3: previous year. So every every department is going to have to,

153
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 3: you know, look at what their expenditures are and cut

154
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: back on that. And from everything that I've been told,

155
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 3: you'll see that presented on Monday night.

156
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 4: Do you think it'll get passed?

157
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: We're going to have some discussions around it, you know.

158
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 3: I think the council Republicans are going to be looking

159
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: at how we can address the court system, how we

160
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 3: can address the prosecutor, the one real oversight that we

161
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 3: have over the court system over our prosecutor. It's not

162
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 3: like we can pass in order and to say, hey, prosecutor,

163
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 3: do your job better or judges do your job better.

164
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 3: We don't have direct authority on that. We do have

165
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 3: authority over funding, and the only time that we have

166
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: any kind of saying that is during the budget season.

167
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: So I say be prepared for that. And then there's

168
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 3: also a third component to the public safety package, which

169
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 3: is going to be huge and something that our chief

170
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 3: is advocated for for a long time, and that is

171
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 3: making the General Orders Board advisory. I don't know if

172
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 3: you guys remember the Democrats on City County Council has

173
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 3: an ordinance to make the General Orders Board citizen led

174
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 3: and this was right during the BLM riots, So you know,

175
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 3: Democrats in Indianapolis put a bunch of BLM type defund

176
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 3: the police activists in charge of policy making for IMPD.

177
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: Our chief is the only chief in the entire country

178
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 3: that has to deal with this, and he has no

179
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 3: authority to create policy for his department. And we've had

180
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 3: a lot of conversations with state House leaders. This is

181
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 3: our attempt to say, hey, before the state looks at

182
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: getting involved in everything, you can still have your General

183
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 3: Orders Board, but we're going to make an advisory. They

184
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 3: can have meetings with the chief, they can make recommendations

185
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 3: to the chief, but we are going to put IMPD

186
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: policy back in the hands of the chief of police.

187
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 3: And that I think that, along with the residency requirements,

188
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 3: are going to be the most impactful proposals that this

189
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 3: Council has seen in a long time. I know that

190
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: the FOP President Rick Schneider, he called these proposals common sense,

191
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 3: and he said that it's about time that you saw

192
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 3: something like this. He said, they're no brainer moves to

193
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 3: make a real difference in Indianapolis.

194
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: All right, Well, if they're no brainer moves, I'm sure

195
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: they'll get voted against. But thanks for trying, Josh Josh

196
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: Baine from the Indianapolis City County Council, thank.

197
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 3: You anytime, my pleasure.

198
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 4: You're listening to Kendill and Casey on ninety three WIBC.

199
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 1: So what the federal government is taking over Washington d C.

200
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: Now they've done such a fine job with the country

201
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: now that they're going to just take control Washington d C.

202
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,599
Speaker 4: Well that's the talk, right, Donald Trump. He threatened to

203
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 4: take federal control of Washington DC this following some violence

204
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 4: that's been happening there, and one specifically was that the

205
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 4: doge guy, Edward Cornstein, he was allegedly severely beaten while

206
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 4: he was trying to stop a gang from assaulting someone.

207
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 4: And Donald Trump actually shared that image and Donald Trump

208
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 4: described the attackers as local thugs. And he's saying, no more.

209
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: What do all of these large cities, whether it's Indianapolis,

210
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 1: it's Washington, d c Chicago. I mean, basically, pick your

211
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: favorite large major metropolitan sy What do they all have

212
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: in common?

213
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 2: Democrat leadership, all run by Democrats. You know, it's interesting.

214
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: So Greg Ballard, I think maybe next week we're going

215
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 1: to have our old buddy Robert Vaine is in charge

216
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: of putting this together. So it may take three weeks,

217
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: who knows. But Craig Ballard has a new book out

218
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: just talking about just this and he was sort of

219
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: one of the last big city Republican mayors and talking

220
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: about his time running the city of Indianapolis. And he's

221
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: supposed to come on next week or the week after whatever.

222
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: Vaine gets onto it and.

223
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 2: Puts this thing together. Hi, Robert, we love you and talk.

224
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: That's what the books about about being one of the

225
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: last of the big city Republican mayors. And you think

226
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: about it's fascinating because I know you weren't here then.

227
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: But like the things we used to like complain about

228
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: with Ballard, Hey, we're mad there were too many electric

229
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: vehicle charging stations, or there was the cricket stadium, and

230
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: it's like you look at it and go that those

231
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: things were great uses of public finances. But boy, wouldn't

232
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: we trade that being the worst thing now compared to

233
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: what we've had the last nine years under hog Set.

234
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 2: Wouldn't we love to have the sort.

235
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: Of relative safety and security we had under Ballard, the

236
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: relatively scandal free administrations, rather boring.

237
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 2: Day to day existence. Wouldn't we love to have all

238
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 2: that back?

239
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: And yet these big cities keep voting the exact same way.

240
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 4: Yeah. Actually, what our listeners want is for you and

241
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 4: I to struggle every day to put a show together. Yes,

242
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 4: because we can't find enough things to talk about. You know,

243
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 4: it's funny more we have the worst it is for

244
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 4: everyone else.

245
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: It's funny you said that because somebody I was talking

246
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 1: about the other day, and they were talking about all

247
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 1: this stuff going on with Micah's office and then the

248
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: stuff with Diego. You know who the most happy guy

249
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: in the world is about the bull crap allegedly going

250
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: on in Micah's office, Diego Morales.

251
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 2: When's the last time we mentioned that guy? He's like, Hey, you.

252
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: Keep it up with the scandal ridden office, buddy, you.

253
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 4: Keep it going focuses off of him?

254
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, no kidding, but anyway, the uh, it's great for

255
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: our this stuff is great for our programming. It sucks

256
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: for our listeners though, right Like, the worst thing for

257
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: us would be a competent, quiet, well run, taxpayer first government.

258
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 1: If they did that, we'd have nothing to talk about.

259
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: And instead they just keep giving us content every single day.

260
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 4: So Donald Trump was talking about this and he mentions

261
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 4: bringing into the National Guard to Washington, DC. Are you considering.

262
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 5: Taking over the DC polace is at a poption? We're

263
00:13:55,520 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 5: considering it, yeah, because the crime is ridiculous. I could

264
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 5: show you a chart comparing DC to other locations and

265
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 5: you're not going to want to see what it looks like.

266
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 5: It was just up on television actually that were showing it.

267
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 3: Now.

268
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 5: We want to have a great, safe capital, and we're

269
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 5: going to have it, and that includes cleanliness and includes

270
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 5: other things. We have a capital that's very unsafe.

271
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: You know.

272
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 5: We just almost lost a young man, beautiful, handsome guy

273
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 5: that got the hell knocked out of him the night

274
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 5: before last.

275
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 2: And I'm going to call him now.

276
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 5: We wanted to give him a little recovery time. We

277
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 5: just put a call into him.

278
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: They're calling back a little while. But he went through.

279
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 5: A bad situation, to put it mildly, and there's too

280
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 5: much of it. We're we're going to do something about it.

281
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 5: So whether you call it federalized or what. And that

282
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 5: also includes the graffiti that you see, the papers all

283
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 5: over the place, the roads that are in bed shape,

284
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 5: the medians that are falling down, the median in between

285
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 5: roads falling down. We're going to beautify the city. We're

286
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 5: going to make it beautiful.

287
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 2: And uh, what a shame.

288
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 5: The rate of crime, the rate of muggins, killings, and

289
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 5: everything else.

290
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 2: We're not going to let it.

291
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 5: And that includes bringing in the National Guard, maybe very

292
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 5: quickly too.

293
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 4: Okay. So that was on Tuesday that he answered that

294
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 4: he hasn't detailed how or when he would federalize DC.

295
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 4: Local law enforcement there and federal agencies. They haven't commented

296
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 4: on this situation. But again yesterday, a Trump administration spokesperson

297
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 4: was saying that Washington, DC right now is more violent

298
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 4: than Bagdad.

299
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: Can I tell you, like, I'm not training it in

300
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: any way take away from the seriousness of the thing here.

301
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: That guy getting beat up, just like since the funeral CINNTI,

302
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: it's all horrible. But I just love the Trump just

303
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: off the cuff statements because he'll just start adding things

304
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. He was a beautiful guy, handsome guy

305
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: that I called him. We're expecting a called back any like,

306
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: it's totally irrelevant to what he's telling.

307
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 4: It's like when he was one with Joe Rogan and

308
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 4: went off and talked about Tad Lincoln bedroom.

309
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 2: Lincoln was sad Tad and Dad, Yes we know you. Yes,

310
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 2: they didn't call it depression. Look Tad.

311
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: There's a tiny photo of tiny Tad right over there.

312
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 2: Like, I just that is my favorite part of it.

313
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: He was a beautiful man, beautiful handsome guy, got got

314
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: beat up.

315
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 2: I called him. I'm expecting a called back any minute.

316
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 2: I don't know when, any minute.

317
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: Like just it's that is the little It's the little

318
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: things in life, Casey, the humor me.

319
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 4: Another thing that is happening, Donald Trump is preparing to

320
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 4: sign an executive order and this allows four oh one

321
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 4: K retirement plans to invest in alternative assets such as

322
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 4: private equity, real estate, and cryptocurrency. Oh yeah, well the

323
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 4: move would open up about nine trillion dollars in four

324
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 4: oh one K markets to previously restricted areas. Yeah, do

325
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 4: you think that the average person knows how to wisely

326
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 4: invest their money? I means what they're doing with Social Security, right,

327
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 4: They say, you're not smart enough to do it, so

328
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 4: we're gonna do it for you.

329
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: I yeah, we should call my friend build our friend

330
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: build memory and see what he thinks about that. You know,

331
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 1: they always say, consult your trained financial advisor.

332
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't.

333
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's your money, it's your market, it's

334
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: your thing. But here's the problem. If I don't got

335
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: to bail you out, if it don't work, then do

336
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: whatever you do. You The problem is I gotta bail

337
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,239
Speaker 1: these people out. Every time something goes down, I end

338
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: up having to bail somebody. An auto industry goes down,

339
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: take money from ROB. The housing industry goes down, take

340
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 1: money from rob. In fact, they're not taking money from

341
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: me anymore. They're taking money from seven generations from me

342
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: now in the future. You're right, yeah, I'm That's always

343
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: been my thing. If I don't got to bail you out.

344
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 1: It's like the seat belt people. Should you wear a

345
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: seat belt? Of course, absolutely, it's common sense. I wear

346
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: a seat belt, My wife wears a seat belt. We

347
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: will always tell my kids to wear seat belts.

348
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 2: But if you want to fly through a windshield. What

349
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 2: business is that of mine?

350
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: As look as I don't have to bail you out

351
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: with the medical costs. I'm always like the smoking. Felt

352
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: that way about the smoking. If you want to do that, great,

353
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: But I should have to pay for your healthcare cards.

354
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: Like all of these things, I always end up paying

355
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: for somebody else's problem. And I see myself having to

356
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: pay for this problem should it occur down the road.

357
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 4: So experts are saying that investors struggle with basic concepts

358
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 4: adding complex products could do more harm than good. Trump

359
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 4: still expected to sign this executive order sometime today, and

360
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 4: that most likely will trigger some regulatory reviews before anything

361
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 4: is implemented.

362
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 2: Can I read a comment from the YouTube chat?

363
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: Sure, by the way, you know an hour later. Now

364
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna read it now so strong I don't

365
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 1: want to wait. Okay, it comes from mister g being

366
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: serious for a minute. I want to thank Rob for

367
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: talking about how that scumbag, Eric Holcombe he ruined Indiana forever,

368
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: all that made us hoosiers are gone. He had scumbag

369
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: and Eric Holcomb and thanking me in the same set

370
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: of commentary.

371
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 2: We had to move that who straight to the front

372
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 2: of the lot.

373
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 4: He should have sent that at nine am. Hey, we

374
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 4: talked about nothing else.

375
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: Okay, is it all right? There was a big announcement

376
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: and I thought it was very important. And I know

377
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: people we think, oh, everybody just listens for three hours.

378
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:36,880
Speaker 2: They don't.

379
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: We do have an update on this, these allegations of

380
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: AI porn being viewed shared in the Lieutenant Governor's office,

381
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: and I.

382
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 2: Wanted to you want to give that update coming up update.

383
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: And I thought maybe it might be it might be

384
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: good for you to read the update that you read

385
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: at the top of the show as well.

386
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 4: Again, Oh, sure we can do that. It's Kendall and Casey.

387
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 4: It's ninety three WIBC.

388
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: Hey, you have some uplifting news about electricity, and by uplifting,

389
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 1: I mean thoroughly depressing.

390
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 4: So we've talked about this electricity costs rising nationwide? Could

391
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 4: he get even higher? This? Of course because of the

392
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 4: explosion of the data centers and powering more a I

393
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,719
Speaker 4: surging power bills, way way way budgets are getting stretched.

394
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 4: Everything's more expensive.

395
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 2: Rout time out, timeout time out.

396
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: You're saying these data centers are causing electricity prices to

397
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: go up.

398
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 4: What breaking news?

399
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: So wait a second.

400
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're bringing these things into our communities. They're gobbling

401
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 1: up valuable farm land that's feeding a nation. We're giving

402
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: them special tax abatements we don't give to anyone else.

403
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 1: And then for all of that, we're not really getting

404
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: employees because they for the most part don't employ people.

405
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: We're just getting rising electric bills.

406
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 4: So the national average did I miss something? No? You

407
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 4: got it? You got it? You want to keep going? No?

408
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 1: No, I just I just I feel like they're there

409
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 1: must be a you know, it's like the South Park

410
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: episode with the underwear nomes, uh, steal underwear something something

411
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: profit like, there's something in the middle that I've missed here,

412
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: because why would we be giving away tax incentives to

413
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: people that are making stuff.

414
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 2: More experience expensive for people?

415
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

416
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, So the national average for a residential place electricity

417
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 4: rose from sixteen dollars and forty one cents to seventeen

418
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 4: dollars and forty seven What was the numbers, sixteen forty

419
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 4: one to seventeen forty seven. Now that was nationwide. Yeah,

420
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 4: so Indiana has seen an eleven point five percent rise

421
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 4: in our electricity costs.

422
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: How much?

423
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 4: Well, we're the second highest in the Midwest. Twelfth Yeah,

424
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 4: in the entire what was the rise, as you said,

425
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 4: a percentage eleven point five percent.

426
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 2: Eleven point five percent.

427
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: So that may not sound like much to you, but

428
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: think about if let's do the math.

429
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 2: I mean, it should sound like a lot to you.

430
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: But if you had one hundred and thirty dollars electric

431
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: bill last month, which depending on what you have in

432
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 1: your house, that's not at all out of the realm,

433
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: or probably a lot more for many people. But let's

434
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 1: just let's let's do a nice round number. Okay, let's

435
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: say it's two hundred dollars. If you have an all

436
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: electric house and you got five to seven people in

437
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: your house, that's probably not outrageous. That's twenty dollars a month.

438
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,959
Speaker 1: Trablate that over twelve months, two hundred forty dollars a year.

439
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 1: It's two hundred and forty dollars a year that just disappeared

440
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 1: for the exact same service you were getting the year before.

441
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 4: Uh, not necessarily the exact same service. It could be

442
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 4: worse service coming up.

443
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 2: Am I getting less electricity?

444
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 4: Well you could? I mean these AI data centers age

445
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 4: oh yeah, graining power.

446
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: So not only do I get more expensive electricity, I

447
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: could get.

448
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 4: Les let's to be determined right now.

449
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: What think about the segment we did yesterday where that

450
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: Austin Bonta, who's the mayor of Portage, and Nipscoe who's

451
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: the power provider up there. They had this big rate

452
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: increase and his constituents are outraged as they should be

453
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: over it. And so he expresses that sentiment and says, hey,

454
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: we got to fix the system. We can't have these

455
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 1: rate increases over and over and over again. You know,

456
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: it's just like with food, right or the rent or

457
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: the mortgage increase. You're pricing people out of living. We

458
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: got to do something.

459
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 2: What's he get?

460
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: He gets some crappy text from Ed Soliday, who controls

461
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: utilities in the house, basically threatening to cut off funding

462
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: increases to his city if he flaps his gums anymore

463
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: about the the I U r C and the and

464
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: the rate increases. These are the people running our state.

465
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: This is how they view you. The consumer, shut up

466
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: and pay. The state logo should be shut up and pay.

467
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: The sign those signs, those ugly rotten signs and big

468
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: letters should say welcome to Indiana. Shut up and pay,

469
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 1: because that's all our lawmaker's view. You as now is

470
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: somebody who shuts up and to shut up and pay.

471
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 3: Well.

472
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 4: Obviously, these data centers they cause huge immediate energy demand.

473
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 4: They need grid upgrades, and you know the utilities are

474
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 4: just going to be passing these costs onto consumers. And

475
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 4: did you see the article? Who was it? Who's that

476
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 4: movie director? Oh James Camer I.

477
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 2: Was going to start guessing. People got to him about seven.

478
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, James Cameron warned of a Terminator style apocalypse.

479
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 4: Oh if AI is weaponized.

480
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 2: Oh that sounds predictable. Both dangerous and predictable.

481
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 4: That sounds a lot of fun.

482
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 2: Huh yeah, yeah, all.

483
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: Right, speaking of a Well, I'll let you go first.

484
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: You read an important announcement at the beginning of the show,

485
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: and I thought, because we have a lot of people

486
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: who do listen all three hours, but many people who

487
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: are popping in and out, I thought I would let

488
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: you behoove you to go ahead and let her by

489
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: know what's going on.

490
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 3: Again.

491
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 4: Well, sure, and it's not normally something that we would mention,

492
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 4: but because Jim has filled in here on WIBC, our

493
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 4: listeners have grown to get to know him real quick.

494
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 2: Got to mean to catch up, Jim Keyhoe your husband, right.

495
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 4: Everybody knows we're married. We announced it when he took

496
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 4: a job with the Lieutenant Governor's office. So just to

497
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,199
Speaker 4: keep you up to date, we're announcing that, Yes, he

498
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 4: resigned from his position yesterday with the Lieutenant Governor's office.

499
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 4: He did that voluntarily. He was not asked to.

500
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 2: Okay, very good, So we want everybody know that.

501
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: And the best part about this is Jim is my

502
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: favorite filling guy, and we love all our filling people,

503
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 1: but Jim and I have struck up a very good

504
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: friendship over the years, and now hopefully he'll get to

505
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: return being the filling guy to the Kindley Casey Show.

506
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 4: Something to look forward to.

507
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: Uh, okay, so that was your announcement. Now, in the

508
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: nine thirty segment, I gave an update on these allegations

509
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: of AI porn being viewed and shared in the Lieutenant

510
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: Governor's office, and I wanted to let everybody know again

511
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,400
Speaker 1: that Look, it's been very frustrating for me the.

512
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: Past week as I have watched.

513
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: Various people say various things that appear to be in

514
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 1: extreme contrast with the facts as I have known them.

515
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: On the ground and we said, one of the things

516
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: that is hard about this job is we get in

517
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: for that we aren't yet ready to publicize. And this

518
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 1: happens all the time on the show. We have a

519
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: vetting process, we have things we go through. It's how

520
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: we But because we have sources all over the state House.

521
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: I used the JD Van stuff as an example, where

522
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: did that story get broke?

523
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 2: Got broke here? Why?

524
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,719
Speaker 1: We have people in the state House who are huge

525
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: fans of this show. They're all over the state House.

526
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: Many of them can't speak up publicly, but they give

527
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: us information. That's how we got that right, That's how

528
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: we got that first, whether it was the Beaubaard Dui story,

529
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 1: what was the Mike Bohatgik do you I?

530
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 2: Story?

531
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: Like, we do break news quite a bit on this program,

532
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: and one of the things that's been very frustrating is

533
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 1: because there was information we could not yet reveal, it

534
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: felt like the Lieutenant Governor's office was in part hiding

535
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: behind Well, nobody's come out and said they've seen this.

536
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: It's you know, the media is making this up. They're

537
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: just inventing this. Isn't it wild that nobody's seen this.

538
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: Somebody who I've been talking to for the past week

539
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: now has alleged that they have seen it, and they

540
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 1: have on multiple occasions described seeing the video in question

541
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: and the circumstances under which they viewed the video, and

542
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: on multiple occasions I have talked with them about this,

543
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: on multiple occasions they have told the exact same story,

544
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: with specific details remaining the same. This person is more

545
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: than willing to tell this story publicly, hopefully in the

546
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: near future, and the only thing preventing them from doing

547
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 1: so right now is they are currently cooperating with the

548
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: authorities in this manner in this matter, and as soon

549
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: as that is that obligation is fulfilled. They have stated

550
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: they are more than willing to come on and tell

551
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: the story exactly as they told it to me, for

552
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: the public at.

553
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 2: Large to consume.

554
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: And I would just say this again because the Lieutenant

555
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: Governor made a definitive statement both to Labianco and he

556
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 1: Tom Labiancle, the guy who broke the story, and he's

557
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: made the definitive statement, as I recall, at Tera hate

558
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: that this did not this did not happen, that he

559
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: has done his own investigation and this did not happen.

560
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 1: And if that is the case, the best thing that

561
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: Micah Beckwith could do right now, not only for himself,

562
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: but for these people who are alleged to have done this,

563
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: and for the entire state of Indiana, is to fully

564
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: present to the public. And by the way, everybody knows

565
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: Marion County Prosecutor's Office is looking at it. As Craig Haggard,

566
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: the guy whose wife was allegedly the victim of this,

567
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: stated that so not only do the public at large,

568
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 1: but to the Marin County Prosecutor's Office, as soon as possible,

569
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: present all the information which led you in one day,

570
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: a weekend day, by the way, to clear your guys.

571
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: That is the absolute best thing you could do for yourself,

572
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: for these guys, and for the entire state of Indiana.

573
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: And I would do that today.

574
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 4: You're listening to Kendl and Casey. It is ninety three WIBC.

575
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 2: Hey, this is our last segment of the week. Casey,

576
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 2: you better bring your a game. How about that?

577
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 4: At no pressure, no pressure. Yesterday I brought my a game.

578
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 4: We were talking about the four major cities and you

579
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 4: were getting all worked out. Multiple people have told me, no,

580
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 4: you know what, In fact.

581
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna read.

582
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 4: I'm going to read the text, not my guys, from

583
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 4: Denny Smith. Denny Smith after yesterday's segment, this time talking

584
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,959
Speaker 4: about the four major cities. Yeah, most people agree that

585
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 4: they are in New York, LA, and Chicago. And the

586
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 4: debate arises around what is the fourth city. And it's

587
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 4: open to interpretation, whether you want to say it's based

588
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 4: on population, land, mas, culture, history, whatever. It's a special

589
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 4: city in your heart. You get to determine what do

590
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 4: you think is the fourth major city. You and I

591
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 4: went back and forth in this right. Denny Smith texted

592
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 4: me and he said, you are the most patient co

593
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 4: host in America. I would have slapped the ever living

594
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 4: you know what out of him. You are wonderful and

595
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 4: also so patient. And I said, ha, thanks Denny. He's

596
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 4: a handful.

597
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 2: Okay, So a couple of things.

598
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: I think all I said was, lady, make a definitive statement,

599
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: because you were trying to go out.

600
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 4: It was building up to why I made the decision.

601
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: You were going to some big philosophical thing, and I

602
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: was like, woman, we are up against it. We got

603
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: to like have an answer here, Like I was just

604
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: looking out for yourself.

605
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 2: But here's the thing. You don't.

606
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: On one hand, yes, he's right, Okay. On one day

607
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: he's right, here's here's here's the thing. Though, it's like

608
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: in Kevin backed me up on this. Kev's a single guy.

609
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 1: He's out on the market. Get If you enter in

610
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: to any sort of social endeavor with the person you

611
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: know to be completely crazy, then you don't get sympathy later.

612
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: If you're like three months down the road, this is awful.

613
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: This person is completely unhinged. If everyone tried to talk

614
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: you out of it, including the person you're dating themselves,

615
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: and said, don't date me.

616
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:25,959
Speaker 2: I'm crazy.

617
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 4: You could do better.

618
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: You are better than whatever this endeavor is, you don't

619
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: get sympathy from your friends. I tried to talk you

620
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: out of this job on multiple occasions. I was like,

621
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: do do you Your life is too good for this,

622
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: and you still chose to work here. So you don't

623
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: get sympathy from the public. Probably you have to go

624

00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,600

Speaker 2: Are there any women I would say.

685
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 6: There's not a ton of single women I feel like.

686
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 7: But it also depends on where you go, Like that

687
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 7: could just be the park that I go to.

688
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: Somebody somebody the YouTube chats and can you imagine the

689

695
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 4: first if you'd like before you like.

696
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: You meet up instead of I met you at a

697
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: local coffee shop. Oh you went with coffee shop.

698
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 2: I went with.

699
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: That's perfect instead of instead of like coffee shop, taffor.

700
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 2: Uh huh, instead of a barn.

701
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 4: You meet at the pickleball on the court, right on

702
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 4: the court. And they say that this is designed to

703
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 4: break the ice naturally emphatically shaking.

704
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,760
Speaker 6: I think that's a bad first date idea.

705
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,320
Speaker 7: Wow, why because you can't really you don't really have

706
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 7: a chance to get to know the person.

707
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 6: You're on the opposite sides of the court.

708
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 4: But don't you think it would be less like a

709
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 4: job interview than you know, like a first date, where

710
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 4: it's a job interview to a coffee shop. You know,

711
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 4: people like, tell me about yourself.

712
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,879
Speaker 2: That's how it goes into coffee shop.

713
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 4: What do you do for a living?

714
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm all for activity dates. I just don't

715
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 7: think not a burstay is a good one for the

716
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 7: first date.

717
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: Oh, I want to come back to that. You've viewed

718
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 1: how long, Well, it's been a while since you've dated.

719
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,240
Speaker 1: You've viewed dating as a job interview.

720
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 2: That's how it worked for you.

721
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 4: No, it's not what I view. I think it's what

722
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 4: people who are in the dating worldview. It as based

723
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 4: on what I've seen. Kevin, in my right, you got

724
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,479
Speaker 4: to get to know each other, and that entails tell

725
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 4: me about yourself, where are you from, what do you

726
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 4: do for a living, what's your family like?

727
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,879
Speaker 7: It can feel very formal sometimes, Yeah, I wonder your

728
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 7: generation is so lonely and miserable.

729
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 2: That's how you're treating the first date.

730
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 6: It's screwed up.

731
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 4: I have no chance.

732
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 3: I don't.

733
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 6: I don't think we need any more dating apps too.

734
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: Well, okay, so there are some interesting dating apps. There's

735
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: now the pickleball dating app. I have a set of

736
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 1: friends who are very happily married and have been for

737
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,720
Speaker 1: a long time, who met on the Catholic Match Apparently

738
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: that's a dating app or a Catholic people get together.

739
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: There's a farmer website. Is that what it's called. There's

740
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,760
Speaker 1: a there's a farmer website of something.

741
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 4: There's a senior one too. I don't know what that is.

742
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 2: But still alive.

743
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,919
Speaker 7: I think that with the Catholic one and the farmer one,

744
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 7: I think those are good because you're more likely to

745
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 7: find someone that you have a lot in common with.

746
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 1: But you don't think pickleball is enough to drive you

747
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 1: to some sort of sustain success.

748
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 6: It's too basic.

749
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,919
Speaker 4: Now, I went to a wedding and the couple met

750
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 4: on hinge and they put that in their wedding program

751
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 4: that that's how they met.

752
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: Ah, this was years ago. Never mind, No, I don't

753
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:13,800
Speaker 1: know if I want to go to the weekend like this.

754

00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 4: Wow, this is getting.

756
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 2: God has worked in my life in the wonderful ways.

757
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 2: I went.

758
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: I went out with the girl for a series of

759
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: dates and we had a very good mutual friend and

760
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:28,439
Speaker 1: she was like so cheering for this, and then it

761
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: didn't work out, and she asked her direct She's like,

762
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 1: you and Rob, it was going so well, what happened?

763
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: And this was her quote, I'm concerned he will never

764
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: give up Broad Ripple. She's like, I need someone with

765
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 1: a better, more mature future.

766
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 4: Oh no, well tell her you gave it up.

767
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 2: But it wasn't a job interview. No, this just looks

768
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 2: like such a terrible, rotten existence.

769
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: Maybe Kevin's right, Maybe the gen Z people have figured

770
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:00,879
Speaker 1: it out.

771
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: Loneliness is the way to go.

772
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 4: Thank you, Rob, Thank you Kevin, Thank you for listening today.
