Speaker 1: All right to say too nine on seven hundred wl W.
Speaker 2: Steve Hawkins in for Tom Brenneman on Thanksgiving morning. Time
Speaker 2: to talk with Gary Sullivan at home with Gary Sullivan
Speaker 2: on fifty five KR see nine o'clock every Saturday and
Speaker 2: Sunday morning.
Speaker 1: Good morning, Gary, How are you going?
Speaker 3: Stay fine?
Speaker 1: How are you good? Thanks for joining us.
Speaker 2: You're always here on Thursdays with Tom Burnaman, even on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3: I like, here you go, there you go.
Speaker 1: You need a company, didn't you? Absolutely been here by myself,
Speaker 1: me and Dave Keaton all morning long, and there you go.
Speaker 1: I joined the party. There you go.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you a question about how not to
Speaker 2: clog up the kitchen sink on Thanksgiving in a second.
Speaker 2: But the wind was really blowing yesterday and got some
Speaker 2: drafts around your home and my home and everything.
Speaker 1: What's going on here?
Speaker 3: You know what yesterday with all that wind was really
Speaker 3: I hope people paid attention to their homes because you know,
Speaker 3: with thirty mile an hour winds, you find where all
Speaker 3: the leaks are around the doors, around the windows, under
Speaker 3: the doors. You know, it's really drafted. But one place
Speaker 3: a lot of people don't really think about I don't know.
Speaker 3: Do you have a little i'll call it an escape
Speaker 3: patch into the attic. Maybe it's in a closet, maybe
Speaker 3: it's in a hall. You know, really what that is
Speaker 3: is a piece of plywood about five aces of an
Speaker 3: inch thick, and it sits on a little rail wood
Speaker 3: up there, and you know it's not weather tight at all,
Speaker 3: and of course the wind's blowing through the soft events
Speaker 3: and the gable vents, and that draft can really come
Speaker 3: right into the house and mess up the temperature on
Speaker 3: the first floor or upstairs. So we can weather strip
Speaker 3: that if you take that piece of plywood down and
Speaker 3: get yourself a piece of maybe two inch thick foam,
Speaker 3: cut it little contractor's cement up there sticking on the
Speaker 3: back of that board, and put it back in place,
Speaker 3: and that'll insulate that board. And then for where it
Speaker 3: sits on that ledge, what I do is I get
Speaker 3: a piece of plexiglass, and on that plexiglass I will
Speaker 3: get some of the foam weather stripping. I'm sure you've
Speaker 3: seen it in hardware store. It's self sticking, so it's
Speaker 3: really easy to do. And then drill just four holes,
Speaker 3: one on each corner, and screw it. Right into the
Speaker 3: trim molding of that escape hatch. I'll called again, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm sure it's calling attic door, come to think of it,
Speaker 3: and compress that weather stripping up there, and then you've
Speaker 3: got you've got an insulated area. And I'll tell you what,
Speaker 3: it makes such a huge difference. I'm sure if people
Speaker 3: paid attention to what that door was and it's not
Speaker 3: enslaved yesterday and that wind was haling, I'm sure it's
Speaker 3: almost drumming to a degree. Wow. So you can cut
Speaker 3: down a lot of air that infiltrates the home. And
Speaker 3: of course then your furnace that's going, it can't satisfy
Speaker 3: the thermostats, so it just keeps going and got wow,
Speaker 3: get on.
Speaker 1: Then you get the bill in you crab.
Speaker 3: So let's do that.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you can do it to more stuff like the
Speaker 2: entry door, also in the garage door.
Speaker 3: Sure in the entry door. You know, we all know
Speaker 3: about weather stripping. If you had a house for a
Speaker 3: few years, you've probably added weather stripping. But areas that
Speaker 3: are forgotten is at the bottom of the door. I mean,
Speaker 3: we do the tops, we do the sides, but at
Speaker 3: the bottom of the door, where the threshold is there's
Speaker 3: you know, the modern thresholds are usually aluminum or wood,
Speaker 3: and they have a little vinyl seal that slides in,
Speaker 3: which is good for about five years. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: it gets cold, it gets worn on, people walk on it,
Speaker 3: and it splits and everybody just ignores it. And then
Speaker 3: when you get a real windy day, the winds rushing
Speaker 3: that cold air right in the bottom of the door.
Speaker 3: So replace that seal, pull it out. There's about six
Speaker 3: seven different types of configurations. Take a little snippet of it,
Speaker 3: take to the hardware store. They just literally just slide
Speaker 3: right in and slide out. If there's a little you know,
Speaker 3: settling that's taking place and there's still a little gap,
Speaker 3: you can change out to the threshold. Or you can
Speaker 3: put what they call a door sweep on, which is
Speaker 3: a piece of aluminum, usually about an inch, and then
Speaker 3: there's a vinyl that goes on the bottom of that
Speaker 3: that just is a sweep. It just sets up against
Speaker 3: the threshold again. Or you can just throw an old
Speaker 3: rug up against it. That's what we used to do
Speaker 3: when I was a kid.
Speaker 1: Now you're talking about doors, what about our windows.
Speaker 3: Here's something I bet a lot of people don't know,
Speaker 3: you know, we hear all the advertisements on replacement windows,
Speaker 3: and that's a great investment for a home. It really
Speaker 3: makes a huge, huge difference. But you know that's not
Speaker 3: in everybody's budget. There's other priorities that have to come first.
Speaker 3: So here's what you do. You've seen the little plastic
Speaker 3: storm window kits. They work fine, but before you use that,
Speaker 3: there is a calking called peel Away. And whether you
Speaker 3: have casement windows that are steelcase windows where the windows
Speaker 3: close on a bar just steal no, no, you know
Speaker 3: weather stripping at all, or a double hung window and
Speaker 3: that weather stripping is long gone. The window goes up
Speaker 3: and down where those windows meet, there's a gap and
Speaker 3: again like yesterday, paying attention, stand in front of that window.
Speaker 3: You could you could feel I'm sure the air rushing in.
Speaker 3: So you get a product called peel Away. You can
Speaker 3: calk the window closed so you can put it right
Speaker 3: where those windows meet. If it's the case may put
Speaker 3: it along the bar it dries clear. If it's a
Speaker 3: double hung you can put it again the where the
Speaker 3: windows meet each other, and also the sides if there's
Speaker 3: a draft there, and then you can put the plastic
Speaker 3: storm window cover over the window, which is a plastic
Speaker 3: creates a little dead air space. Again, great insulator, come march,
Speaker 3: pull the plastic down in that calocking. It's called peel away,
Speaker 3: and you just peel it away.
Speaker 2: And also I guess just in general, insulating your home better.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder how many homes are really under insulate.
Speaker 3: I always preach everybody. Not everybody can get in their attic,
Speaker 3: but you know you've got family over to day, nobody's
Speaker 3: been in that agg for a walk kit a ladder. Say, hey,
Speaker 3: would you do me a favor and just go up
Speaker 3: with that yardstick and just see how much insulation I have. Yeah,
Speaker 3: on the floor of the attic, you should in this
Speaker 3: area probably have somewhere between fifteen and eighteen inches.
Speaker 1: That's what we need.
Speaker 3: Whether it's blown in, whether it's batting whatever, that's how
Speaker 3: much you need to really come up to the recommendations
Speaker 3: of the of the EPA. And I mentioned there's so
Speaker 3: many homes of just five six, seventy eight inches of insulation.
Speaker 3: You're just throwing that money away. And older homes before
Speaker 3: seventy five, you know those walls, there's no insulation in those.
Speaker 3: You can have that done it'll probably pay for itself
Speaker 3: in about four or five years by having somebody actually
Speaker 3: pump a foam into those walls. It may not be
Speaker 3: in our R forty two, but you'll cut that draft out.
Speaker 3: You'll cut that air infiltration, which is also a big
Speaker 3: part of the game.
Speaker 2: Okay, one final question. Gary Sullivan a host of At
Speaker 2: Home with Gary Sullivan on Saturday and Sundays and fifty
Speaker 2: five KRC in the morning. There people are cooking today.
Speaker 2: They got grease, they got leftovers, they got turkey dripping.
Speaker 2: What is the number one mistake or the number one
Speaker 2: no no, if you're in the kitchen today, not to
Speaker 2: stop up the drain and stuff.
Speaker 1: Don't host Oh too late for that.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 3: One of the busiest days, in fact, the busiest day
Speaker 3: for plumbers is tomorrow. Okay, So you're spot on, and
Speaker 3: a lot of it is we look at that disposal,
Speaker 3: you can't really see it. We love it, you know,
Speaker 3: we just scrape stuff down there. It just disappears in
Speaker 3: no problems. Well, you know that's that's for cleaning plates.
Speaker 3: If you're peeling twenty five potatoes and I've seen it.
Speaker 3: Oh and people are just stuffing that stuff down there.
Speaker 3: And you're gonna clog it up. Anything that's fibrous of
Speaker 3: quantity or starchy of quantity. So that's celery rice stuffing.
Speaker 3: Just don't do it. Don't do it.
Speaker 1: Don't do it.
Speaker 3: It's gonna clog off. What's gonna happen? Really, there's a
Speaker 3: circle breaker button on that disposal. I don't know if
Speaker 3: you've ever tripped yours. No, but all of a sudden,
Speaker 3: the disposal just shuts off. Okay, I thought, excuse me, well,
Speaker 3: you can reset those if you get underneath. Well, first
Speaker 3: of all, you'll have to free up the blades. There's
Speaker 3: two blades in there, and when you bought that, it
Speaker 3: came with a big Allen Wrencher.
Speaker 1: We can go into the bottom of the disposal. There's
Speaker 1: a nice little outlet.
Speaker 3: You just stick that Allen Wrencher, start wiggling around, get
Speaker 3: those blades moving, and once you free them up a
Speaker 3: little bit, there's a little red button.
Speaker 1: Just press that in up again.
Speaker 2: Gary, thanks so much for joining us on Thanksgiving, spending
Speaker 2: some of your time with us, and we'll talk to
Speaker 2: you next Thursday with Tom. Okay, I have a great Thanksgiving, Steve,
Speaker 2: all right, you too, Gary Sullivan at home every Saturday
Speaker 2: and Sunday morning. The nine First Warning Weather Forecast Center
Speaker 2: says it is a mixture of clouds and sunshine, windy
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving today on the High three eight. It's twenty nine
Speaker 2: around the tri State at your severe weather station News
Speaker 2: Radio seven hundred WLW. What are you doing wrong with
Speaker 2: your turkey? We're gonna find out next. We're gonna call
Speaker 2: the Butterball Turkey Hotline talk Thanks you Freshman the Butterball
Speaker 2: Turkey talk Line Expert. Hey, Happy Thanksgiving. Thanks for joining
Speaker 2: us this morning.
Speaker 5: Hey, my pleasure, Thanks Steve, and happy Thankgiving you and
Speaker 5: all of your listeners.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: I've already got my butterball and it's all thought out,
Speaker 2: ready to go. I was I guess my first question
Speaker 2: is is it too late this morning, on Thanksgiving morning
Speaker 2: to thaw out the turkey for today?
Speaker 5: Well, it depends when you want to put an the oven.
Speaker 5: If it is rock solid frozen, you're gonna have to
Speaker 5: soak it in cold water. You're gonna keep it the
Speaker 5: original wrapper. You're gonna put it in the sink, thround
Speaker 5: it with cold water. Change that water every thirty minutes.
Speaker 5: It's some of your fastest quickest way to defrost the turkey.
Speaker 5: It takes thirty minutes per so if you have any
Speaker 5: time to do that, I would recommend doing that now.
Speaker 2: So get going and get going on all the fixings
Speaker 2: and everything else. Are there things that people are that
Speaker 2: are up early cook this morning? Is there like one
Speaker 2: thing that everybody is doing wrong that they could do better?
Speaker 5: Well? One tip I always give all the callers is
Speaker 5: just make sure you use that meat thermometer. It just
Speaker 5: takes the guesswork out of knowing when your turkey is done,
Speaker 5: because we get a lot of call things. How do
Speaker 5: I know if my turkey's done? Or should I take
Speaker 5: it out? Now that meat thermometer one seventy in the
Speaker 5: breast and the sigh, You know your turkey's done. Remove
Speaker 5: it from the oven and done?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 2: Are you gonna throw some stuff in the turkey? Does
Speaker 2: it take longer to cook or is it about the
Speaker 2: same time?
Speaker 5: It Sure does. It's going to take longer to cook.
Speaker 5: So for example, if you've a ten to eighteen pound turkey,
Speaker 5: it's going to take about thirty minutes longer to roast
Speaker 5: than if it was on stuffed. Again, use that meat thermometer.
Speaker 5: The center of that stuffing should reach one sixty five
Speaker 5: stuff turkey right before you put any of it there.
Speaker 2: Talking to Sue Smith, the butt Off Turkey talk Line expert,
Speaker 2: You guys have been doing this for many, many years, right.
Speaker 5: We have forty four years we have been talking turkey here.
Speaker 2: And what are some of the craziest questions you guys
Speaker 2: have been asked over the years.
Speaker 6: We do.
Speaker 5: I've been talking turkey personally for twenty six years, So
Speaker 5: you do. You get a lot of fun callers. You know,
Speaker 5: We've had this one call. It's so cute. She was
Speaker 5: come from Colorado. It was cold there. She had her turkey,
Speaker 5: you know, outside storing, which is great, is below forty degrees.
Speaker 5: It was in a cooler. She had all of her
Speaker 5: family were a couple days before and the grandkids were like, haha,
Speaker 5: let's hide this turkey and grandma. So they moved it.
Speaker 5: And then they got a big snowstorm. So she went
Speaker 5: out to get her turkey and she's like, I can't
Speaker 5: find my turkey. Help, what am I going to do today?
Speaker 5: So we recommend a fresh turkey. But those grandkids were
Speaker 5: instructed to go out immediately and try to find that turkey,
Speaker 5: and he did find it, so she was lucky. But
Speaker 5: we had a lot of fun calls here, all right.
Speaker 1: That's what is there a favorite that you have besides
Speaker 1: that one?
Speaker 5: You know, a dad call too, I have twin boys.
Speaker 5: He had twin boys. He was on setting the boys,
Speaker 5: the bath song, your Turkey, a few other duties for
Speaker 5: that Thanksgiving day he called. I hear all the cap
Speaker 5: in the background and like, so I'm funny. He's like, well,
Speaker 5: I got turkey thowing. I got my boys in the bathtub.
Speaker 5: All three of them are just you know, playing meshing around.
Speaker 5: It's like, how long is this turkey's been to take?
Speaker 5: And I couldn't help but laughing. You don't want to
Speaker 5: keep turkey in its own cold water bath in the
Speaker 5: kitchen thing. But you know he was just trying to
Speaker 5: get it all done at once.
Speaker 2: There you go, Butterball Turkey Talk Line. How many calls
Speaker 2: do you guys get on average each year?

Speaker 2: Pocus here this morning, talking to you lot AfOR regular
Speaker 2: fry this morning.
Speaker 1: Hey Gregory, thanks for joining us this morning.
Speaker 6: Hey Hey Steve, thanks for having me.
Speaker 2: No problem. I wanted to talk about the book that
Speaker 2: you've released. It's called Conquering the Hill. The Remarkable Journey
Speaker 2: to the Greatest Gridiron victory in Cincinnati Public Schools History.
Speaker 2: I've had a great time reading about this book. I mean,
Speaker 2: we've got the Thanksgiving parade, We've got the excuse me, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's the one in the well over in Price Hill.
Speaker 2: We've got the big race going on. But there used
Speaker 2: to be maybe the biggest football game of the year
Speaker 2: played on Thanksgiving Day in this town for the better
Speaker 2: part of fifty years, wasn't there?
Speaker 6: That's correct? This week they actually they actually called it
Speaker 6: Cincinnati's Bowl Game, and I didn't coin that free.
Speaker 2: Did this go on like nineteen what was it, twenty
Speaker 2: eight to seventy eight, something like.
Speaker 6: That, nineteen twenty nine, the nineteen seventy eight.
Speaker 2: And if I'm not mistaken, one year they had twenty
Speaker 2: thousand people at Riverfront Stadium watching the game.
Speaker 6: Oh, there were a few years it got too big
Speaker 6: for Elder Stadium, which holds about ten to eleven thousand.
Speaker 6: In the final year they had like fourteen thousand. I
Speaker 6: was at that game. I was in seventh grade and
Speaker 6: it was just a Sea of Humanity, So they moved
Speaker 6: it down to Riverfront beginning in nineteen seventy three. In
Speaker 6: the first year, they had the delayed the start of
Speaker 6: the game thirty minutes to get all the walk up traffic,
Speaker 6: and they had almost twenty five thousand people there.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think of high school football in this town.
Speaker 2: I think of Friday nights. I don't think of Thanksgiving Day.
Speaker 2: How did this game get started in the greater Cincinnati
Speaker 2: area played on Thanksgiving Day?
Speaker 6: Well? Elder was founded in like nineteen twenty two, West
Speaker 6: High in nineteen twenty eight. We had our first team
Speaker 6: in nineteen twenty eight. They sometime between the end of
Speaker 6: the twenty eight season and nineteen twenty nine season, the
Speaker 6: powers that be said, we ought to have a ought
Speaker 6: to have a game. We ought to play. Elder previously
Speaker 6: had been having an alumni game with former players in
Speaker 6: their team on Thanksgiving Day. I can only assume that
Speaker 6: they thought, you know, why not do this on Thanksgiving
Speaker 6: Day school Neither school had a stadium to speak of,
Speaker 6: so they decided to have it at Crossley Field down
Speaker 6: in Queensgate and it's just kind of mushroom from there.
Speaker 6: But the interesting thing about that game is the stock
Speaker 6: market crash occurred like almost to the day, a month
Speaker 6: a month prior to that, but not to be deterred,
Speaker 6: they went on with the game. They even had a
Speaker 6: parade from Shivat all the way down to the you
Speaker 6: know down there to the west end down at Queens
Speaker 6: game where Crosley Field was. At the time it was
Speaker 6: known as Redland Field. But me they played the first
Speaker 6: six of these games down at Crosley Field.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 6: By the third year they had five thousand, over five
Speaker 6: thousand at the game, and which at that time for
Speaker 6: a high school game was you know, fairly enormous crowd.
Speaker 6: And it's like I said, it just got bigger and
Speaker 6: bigger from there it became this this tradition, this Bowl game,
Speaker 6: like I said, so to speak.
Speaker 2: I mean it went through I guess World War two,
Speaker 2: of the sixties, the seventies, and it ended in nineteen
Speaker 2: seventy eight. We're talking about the Elder West High football
Speaker 2: game that was played on Thanksgiving Day in this town.
Speaker 2: What happened after fifty years that Elder and West Hide
Speaker 2: decided not to play on Thanksgiving Day anymore.
Speaker 6: Well, it was more engineered by the state, by the OHSAA,
Speaker 6: the Ohio High School Athletic Association at the time. Well,
Speaker 6: first of all, there weren't even any playoffs until nineteen
Speaker 6: seventy two. When those were instituted. In nineteen seventy two,
Speaker 6: only one team from one of four regions, the one
Speaker 6: team and our region being from southwest Ohio, would go
Speaker 6: to the state playoffs. So you were automatically if you
Speaker 6: had the most computer points, you were automatically in the
Speaker 6: final four right away, which that was the upside. The
Speaker 6: ub side was, you know, you'd have multiple teams that
Speaker 6: would get excluded the state. Finally, the State Athletic Association
Speaker 6: decided in nineteen eighty they were going to expand that
Speaker 6: to two teams from each region eight teams total from
Speaker 6: the States, so they had to they had to move
Speaker 6: the season up a week, so instead of everybody's season
Speaker 6: ending in November early November, it was going to end
Speaker 6: at the end of October two playoff rounds, and it
Speaker 6: just became untenable when you're going to have more teams
Speaker 6: possibly in an elder head on three occasions finished second
Speaker 6: in the region. So they, of course, you know, we're
Speaker 6: looking to possibly you know, have to decide between playoffs
Speaker 6: and Thanksgiving football, and it just kind of that led
Speaker 6: to the demise of it.
Speaker 2: Basically well, local author Gregory Frye. The book is called
Speaker 2: Conquering the Hill, the story I guess about Elder and
Speaker 2: West High playing on Thanksgiving Day in this town. Thank
Speaker 2: you for your time this morning. It's been my favorite
Speaker 2: book to read this year. How do we get the book?
Speaker 6: You can get it one of two ways. Either you
Speaker 6: can order it online through the publisher, Orangefraser dot com.
Speaker 6: That's all one word and it's Fraser f R a
Speaker 6: z R So Orange f R a z r dot com.
Speaker 6: Or I've made the rounds at all the local independent bookstores,
Speaker 6: so they either have it or they either purchase it
Speaker 6: out right from me, or they have it on consignment,
Speaker 6: or if they don't have it, they know about it.
Speaker 6: If you don't want to, if you want to, just
Speaker 6: ask them to order it in for you.
Speaker 2: You can do that, all right, Hey, Gregory Fright, thanks
Speaker 2: for your time this morning. I appreciate it, and good
Speaker 2: luck with the book.
Speaker 6: Hey, thank you, Steven. Happy Thanksgiving all right you too.
Speaker 1: It's eight forty seven. Do yourself a favor.
Speaker 2: If you've got an Elder of West Hio, Western Side
Speaker 2: of Town person, a price tal person, a Cincinnati person,
Speaker 2: that it's the book to get them for the holidays.
Speaker 2: Conquering the Hill. It's a great read and stuff. I
Speaker 2: never knew about Elder and West High playing on Thanksgiving Day,
Speaker 2: but that's good stuff. It's actually happy Frank's Giving. Yes, Franksgiving.
Speaker 2: Know about this.
Speaker 1: You can say this at the dinner table today.
Speaker 2: Eighteen sixty three, President Abraham Lincoln declared a day of
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving on the last Thursday in November, which could either
Speaker 2: be the fourth or fifth week of the month, and
Speaker 2: in nineteen thirty nine, Thanksgiving fell on the last day
Speaker 2: of November, so worried about a short shopping season, retailers,
Speaker 2: including those here in Cincinnati, approached President Franklin Roosevelt to
Speaker 2: move the holiday up a week, and so for the
Speaker 2: next three years, Thanksgiving was known as franks Giving and
Speaker 2: celebrated on different days all across the country until the
Speaker 2: end of nineteen forty one. Congress settled the matter by
Speaker 2: making Thanksgiving the fourth Thursday in November. So that's why
Speaker 2: we are here today on Thanksgiving Day. That guarantees an
Speaker 2: extra week of shopping before Christmas. So there you go
Speaker 2: happy Frank's giving to you this morning? What are you
Speaker 2: actually frankful for?
Speaker 1: You know what?
Speaker 2: Lady's story from a wallet hub, eighty four percent of
Speaker 2: us are thankful for family, and that came in at
Speaker 2: number one. Sixty nine percent of you listening is thankful
Speaker 2: for health, friends, and memories tied at sixty three percent.
Speaker 2: Personal freedom was fifty three percent, forty seven percent, stability,
Speaker 2: forty five percent, fun and experiences forty two percent, opportunities,
Speaker 2: thirty three percent achievements, and only twenty one percent are
Speaker 2: thankful for their wealth. So there, hopefully you're thankful for
Speaker 2: something today.
Speaker 1: What is that over there? He's almost there? All right?
Speaker 2: I have been told that Les Nessman is almost at
Speaker 2: the Pinedale Mall.
Speaker 1: There's some kind of ruck us over there.

Speaker 2: a couple of minutes find out what's going on.
Speaker 1: But you do need to.
Speaker 2: Know about your Thanksgiving day weather, right, Yeah, it looks
Speaker 2: like a mixture of clouds and sunshine today, windy for Thanksgiving,
Speaker 2: a high thirty eight. Tomorrow mostly sunny, it's going to
Speaker 2: be cold and a high of only thirty four twenty
