1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,640
Speaker 1: Don't want to be an American.

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,600
Speaker 2: The answer to the question do you miss me? Would

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 2: be who slowly back on seven hundred w l ws.

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,120
Speaker 2: I said back a little longer than I explained to

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 2: be out at this point, I'm the injury, but I'm

6
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: playing injured. Unlike some people, I can play injured. Explain

7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 2: to me. Austin Elmore is in from ESPN fifteen thirty. Well,

8
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,319
Speaker 2: chop up the Reds demise. But here's Joe Burrow, the

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: multi billion dollar quarterback. We're not gonna do here we go,

10
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: You're not in the game.

11
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 3: After being gone, you take more vacation time than Willie,

12
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 3: and then you have this phantom ankle injury that keeps

13
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: you out for an extra month, and you want to

14
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 3: come in here talking about the durability of Joe Burrow.

15
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear it. I'm Joe Burrow, and

16
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: I am more able. Jimmy kimmeled your ass. That's what

17
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,279
Speaker 2: should have happened. I go in for an ankle procedure,

18
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 2: which thought, hey, I got this bone rubbing out of

19
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: ten and it's kind of sore. Yeah. Two hours later,

20
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: her surgeon consentsals, my wife, your husband has been walking

21
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: around for god knows how long on a fully ruptured

22
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 2: foot foot tended. That's insane and uh is that what?

23
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 2: You blame your golf game on me? And now I

24
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 2: got Now there's no excuses. Yeah, you got your shoulder fixed,

25
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 2: you got your ankle fixed. You better get the game fixed.

26
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: I'm like a Nascar The right side of my body

27
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 2: has been I got to the left side. Now, Holy crap,

28
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: just need an oil change. My search is like, yeah,

29
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: you fully ruptured your tendon. It's gonna be a minute.

30
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: Could you think of a moment when you did it?

31
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: Because there a pinpoint I'm speaking of my my you know,

32
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 2: eight thousand vacation days. We were in Australia and I

33
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 2: felt like a little pop and it hurt for like

34
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 2: the better part of a day. But she said you

35
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: probably did it before that it was something else. So

36
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: I'd like, I don't know, man, I'm just stupid. Well,

37
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: my younger my younger brother actually had surgery yesterday on

38
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: his shoulder and they're like, you know, we fixed your shoulder,

39
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 2: but apparently somewhere along line, you rupture your bicep. Completely

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: had no idea. Nope, that's true, Like we just have

41
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: no money Badgers. I was watching and what was it.

42
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 2: It was called Nova Can the guy who could Feel

43
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 2: No pain. It's like that should be the nickname.

44
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 3: Now, okay, wow, yeah, Like all right, well guy, I

45
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 3: guess I'm glad you're no.

46
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: It's fine. I mean there's and there's in all seriousness,

47
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 2: there's people who have far worse more illnesses. So I'll

48
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 2: take some osteoarthritis and attended seven and whatever. It's there's

49
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 2: worst crap out there and one of those things that's

50
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: causing a lot of pain. Today. Uh, Sunday was wonderful

51
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: because Sunday the champagne was flowing. The shirts came out.

52
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 2: You get your limited edition built for Fall shirts. Maybe

53
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 2: second guessing that purchase this morning Wednesday, I'm really glad

54
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 2: I didn't go down to that shop. You know, you're

55
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: not that guy. I like that.

56
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 3: I like that sort of stuff, but I only will

57
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 3: buy it, really if the team advances. I have a

58
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 3: Bengals Super Bowl fifty six quarters it yeah, still has

59
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: the tags on it. Never worn it not at all

60
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 3: because they didn't win. It just sits in my car.

61
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: I don't wear the Hey wild Card, like if you

62
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: win the World Series, Super Bowl. Whatever. Did you see

63
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: the different story of the hat with the post? How

64
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 2: much seventy dollars? It's insane. Somebody right now is looking,

65
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 2: this's going, I'm really stupid. I'm really I should not.

66
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 4: Don't.

67
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 2: Don't fall into that. That means nothing, right, Championships means something,

68
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: even like AFC National League champion Pennant went okay, yeah,

69
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: but he win the division. Yeah I'm not but I'm

70
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: not buying that. It's just it's so anyway, Uh, how

71
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 2: do you kill cockerroaches with a big, heavy bat with

72
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 2: a Louisville slugger, Because that's what happened on two games.

73
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: They're eighteen to nine. They're outscored. The longest drought in

74
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: sports continues for the Red Legs. Austin Elmore, my boy

75
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 2: from ESPN fifteen thirty. El here, he and Tony Pike

76
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 2: this afternoon, about noon talking about this and all these

77
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: sports misery. We went in a short period of weeks

78
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 2: when like FC was rolling. The Reds are in a

79
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: historic run right now to close out the season, get

80
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 2: in the postseason. You got the Bengals kick off, oh well,

81
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: two and zero, and all of a sudden, in a

82
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 2: few short weeks all, it all burned down. Yeah, from

83
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 2: the time I left and came back, the whole city

84
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: burned down. What the hell happened? I wish I could

85
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 2: explain it, I really do. Like, obviously, the Burrow injury

86
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: changes everything for the Bengals, and the way that they

87
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 2: performed in Minnesota, You're like, Okay, just got away from them,

88
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 2: Surely they're not that bad. And then they confirmed that

89
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,239
Speaker 2: they are that bad with the way that they perform

90
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: in Denver, and all of a sudden you've lost all

91
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: expectations for the Bengals. And then with the Reds it

92
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 2: was the exact opposite. They played just good enough to

93
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: outlast the Mets and get into the playoffs. Normally, an

94
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 2: eighty three win team is not going to get you

95
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: into the playoffs. The Reds were just enough better than

96
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: the Mets, who had a historical collapse and the same

97
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 2: and half of the season to get into the The

98
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 2: Reds did not go on this surge of offense and

99
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 2: pitching in defense to earn a spot into the postseason.

100
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: They simply didn't play as bad as the Mets. In

101
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 2: all fairness, they played a really good series against the

102
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 2: Milwaukee team was resting some guyst the Chicago Cubs swept

103
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: the Cubs, so down the stretch they did some some

104
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: and I you know people, well, yeah, you but Milwaukee's

105
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: resting their starters and there. Yeah, but you still did

106
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 2: something you haven't been able to do, I think since

107
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 2: Kennedy was president, feels like and that was beat it.

108
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: Take a series in Milwaukee, brothers in Milwaukee on top

109
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 2: of that. Yeah, but what does that mean?

110
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 5: Now?

111
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 2: You were in the playoffs? Okay, so had they lost

112
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: they swept again, they wouldn't be in and they played

113
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 2: two more games. It's another beat. It's a it's another

114
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 2: baby step forward. The big question.

115
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 3: It's a baby step because in a normal year, an

116
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 3: eighty three win team is not going to make.

117
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: That at all. But you did. So they did it.

118
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 2: Now what happens in the offseason, that's going to be

119
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 2: the three hundred fifty million dollar questions for sure. And

120
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 2: I'll start with that because because you often hear, especially

121
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 2: with a team like the Dodgers, where they have a

122
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty bazillion dollars payroll in the top

123
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 2: three guys and they're there are one, two three guys

124
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 2: make more than the entirety of your club combined, and

125
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: we're not even getting into pitchers and everyone else. It is,

126
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 2: Can the Reds actually compete on that stage? Now you

127
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: look at that go, well, Cleveland's in there. There's some

128
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 2: smaller market teams, smaller payroll teams that did really well.

129
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 2: The Mets didn't do much or were the Mets right now.

130
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: They've got a really high payroll. But at the end

131
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: of the day, can you really compete at that level?

132
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 3: Yes, you can. The Milwaukee Brewers have a lower payroll

133
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 3: in the Reds. They're the number one seed in the

134
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 3: National League.

135
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 6: Yep.

136
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: Everything they do is first classes and the way it's

137
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 3: scouting and development in their minor league system, in their

138
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: pitching department, all of it. And so, if you are

139
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 3: going to be an organization that chooses not to compete

140
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 3: at the highest level financially with the top guys in

141
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 3: the National League, which the Reds do, they do. They

142
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 3: have that type of money, the Dodgers' money. No, nobody

143
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 3: has the Dodgers' money, but the Reds. The Reds could

144
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 3: be much more. They could spend much more money than

145
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 3: they do. They choose not to. So if you're going

146
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 3: to operate that way, you better have the rest of

147
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 3: your button, your operation buttoned up, and it doesn't feel

148
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 3: like they have that entirely buttoned up right now because

149
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 3: there was not enough development this year from young players.

150
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 3: I think you feel really good about Noel vi Marte.

151
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,239
Speaker 3: I think you feel really good about salth Stewart. Awesome,

152
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 3: but you're questioning Ellie de la Cruz defensively took a

153
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 3: step back. Matt McClain put together one of the worst

154
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 3: offensive seasons in the history of the Reds franchise, and

155
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 3: he played nearly every day. Austin Hayes one year deal,

156
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 3: hurt all the time, Miguel andhar expiring deal, good acquisition.

157
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 3: Maybe you consider bringing him back. TJ friedel red hot

158
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 3: for the first seventy five games of the season, just

159
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 3: a guy for the back half. Stevenson injured, Okay, not great,

160
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 3: Jose Travino fell off a cliff, Gavin Lux not a

161
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 3: complete liability defensively. So there's clearly a lot of work

162
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 3: that needs to be done on this roster. And I

163
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 3: give Terry francona credit for all of what I just said.

164
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 3: He did a good job with them of weathering the

165
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 3: storm and keeping them competitive. He never let it unravel.

166
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 3: That felt like that was the best that you could

167
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 3: get out of this group of guys. Terry Francona got

168
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 3: the best out of what he was given. Yeah, as

169
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 3: he always does. I would say that up until like

170
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 3: the last two weeks of the season into the playoffs,

171
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 3: I found myself second guessing him more than of Zach Lettel.

172
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 3: Zach Lettel, I mean, I got it right here. So

173
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 3: the whole idea of the Reds making the playoffs was

174
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 3: they have Hunter Green, they have Nicolodolo, and they have

175
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 3: Andrew Rabbit. Andrew Rabbit pitching the All Star Game this year,

176
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 3: he didn't pitch in the postseason. Yeah, Niicolodolo last Night

177
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 3: fourteen was filthy. He threw fourteen pitches. Yeah, and Hunter

178
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 3: Green did not meet the moment through sixty five pitches

179
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 3: and got showed.

180
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 2: Did anyone see that?

181
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 3: So the reason that they were supposed to be competitive

182
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 3: in the playoffs, and I thought they would be competitive,

183
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: I legitimately hand up. I gave up on this team.

184
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 3: I quit on this team. I second guessed this team.

185
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 3: But I said the entire time, if they make the postseason,

186
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 3: they can make some noise because of their pitching, and

187
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 3: Abbott and Lodolo combined for fourteen pitches.

188
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: For the ball for the second half of the season,

189
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: probably last third of the season. I was convinced, Okay,

190
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 2: this feels to me, it's a five hundred team, right,

191
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 2: It's a five hundred ball club, maybe a couple of

192
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 2: games over below. But he kind of backed into the

193
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 2: playoffs with the Mets collapsing as they did, and it

194
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 2: felt like, Okay, it's not twenty five, it's twenty six,

195
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 2: it's twenty seven, that they're going to get this thing together.

196
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 2: Put it in. I get the criticism of Terry frank ConA,

197
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 2: but did anyone expect to his credit? Okay, so he

198
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: pitches zach Lytell, and he went why the hell would

199
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 2: he not? Why is Loddole only getting a dozen pitches?

200
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: Why are you saying having Abbott for a game three

201
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 2: that may not happen. You know you've got to play

202
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: for tomorrow. You gotta play for today, not tomorrow. I

203
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: understand the second guessing he's a Hall of Fame manager.

204
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 2: I give why birth to that, because he has a

205
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: track record of success where he goes. The zach Lytell

206
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 2: start was certainly questionable, but you know to him going

207
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 2: to you don't know what your game one day the next.

208
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 2: The biggest evidence of that, as you mentioned, is Hunter Green.

209
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 2: Did anyone expect Hunter Green in Game one to collapse

210
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 2: as quickly and as easily as said? No one believed that.

211
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 3: And here's the other part of the whole conversation of

212
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 3: having your operation buttoned up. It was revealed yesterday afternoon

213
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 3: that the Reds were tipping their pitches did in Game one,

214
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 3: and Hunter Green was the chief among them, and he

215
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 3: obviously gets touched up by the Dodgers. How do you

216
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: not know going into the postseason what your tels are.

217
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 3: Mike Napoli is on the Reds pitching staff, he or

218
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 3: is on the Reds coaching staff. He's there because he's

219
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 3: really good at that picking up guys that are tipping pitches,

220
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,079
Speaker 3: both on the opponents and on themselves. Well, first of all,

221
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 3: how many times have the Reds off exploded offensively? It

222
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 3: makes you feel like, oh, the other team was tipping

223
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 3: their pitches. Never happens. And how do you not have

224
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 3: a self scout in there in your system to say,

225
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 3: Hunter you're doing this with your glove when you throw

226
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 3: a breaking ball. You're doing this with your foot when

227
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 3: you throw a fastball. Whatever it is like that sort

228
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 3: of stuff is what I'm saying. You have to have

229
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 3: that buttoned up because you don't have the talent advantage

230
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: against the best teams in baseball.

231
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 2: And that's at least twice has happened this season where

232
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 2: somebody's tiping their pitches. It happened with Chase Burns in Boston. Right,

233
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 2: how many other clubs have you heard this season that happen?

234
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 2: By the way, Chase Burns is another one. He pitched

235
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: the eighth inning last night. The game was out of hand.

236
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 2: What are we doing? You're not gonna You're.

237
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 3: Pitching is your strength and they combined for seventy six

238
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 3: pitches seventy nine pitches.

239
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 2: The other side of that, though, is offensively speaking, it's

240
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 2: sound like, you know, the Dodgers have a Vulnert but

241
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: in their bullpen versus ours, and did not exploit that.

242
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 2: Now they did anyone think last night? That a two

243
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 2: run lead, and it was great to see them pouncing

244
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 2: on him early. I mean, that was awesome. Right. Sure,

245
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 2: you mentioned Sal Stewart, I am I'm definitely buying some

246
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 2: sales Stewart. I love that guy for a rookie to

247
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: show what he did at Chabez Ravine that clutch shit

248
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 2: to drive runs in fantastic and I think it's unfair

249
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 2: to him, but shows the kind of guy he's for

250
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 2: hanging that loss on him and that that throwing here

251
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 2: because there's a lot of other problems I had that

252
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 2: was not at all on sales. Stewart, that's that. I

253
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 2: look at what transpired in that regard last night and

254
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: it just leaves me shaking my head, going, well, okay,

255
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 2: you know, you got a great bullpen, you get to

256
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 2: the Dodgers billing and can't produce runs. I look at

257
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 2: Ellie de la Cruz wearing that forty four, and we

258
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 2: heard the story on the telecast last night million million

259
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 2: times about how Rick Stobe but quet that number on

260
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 2: him because he reminded him of Eric Davis. He has

261
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: got a long way to go, a long way to

262
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: go before he's at the level of Eric Davis. Is Ellie,

263
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,599
Speaker 2: you know, we talk about he's a superstar. He's a

264
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: every commercial you see for mlbing a promo, Ellie's on there. Ay,

265
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 2: all well and good, but what's that guy done? Yeah?

266
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 3: It was a tough season for Ellie. I know there

267
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 3: was a lot of off field issues and the loss

268
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: of his sister. He had a quad injury that I

269
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 3: think was probably a little more severe than we realized

270
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 3: that he played through. He had adjusted that swing to

271
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,199
Speaker 3: where there was a toe tap instead of a leg kick,

272
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 3: and when he went back to the leg kick, some

273
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 3: of the power went back. Defensively, he was atrocious up

274
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 3: until the last two weeks of the season. A difficult

275
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: season for Ellie, but there were moments in which you

276
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: were waiting for him to grab hold of it and

277
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 3: to become that superstar and to match all the hype.

278
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 3: I did an entire segment about this going into the

279
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 3: game on Tuesday night, which is, yeah, Hunter Green is starting,

280
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 3: and that's cool, but this is a chance for Elie

281
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 3: de la Cruz to emerge, yes, and to.

282
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 2: Be the guy. And he didn't do it. He didn't

283
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 2: do it last night with the bases loaded. It sucks.

284
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 3: I mean, there's no other way to say it. It

285
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 3: stinks that in that moment, your guy didn't have a moment,

286
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 3: and you know there was a.

287
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: Couple of time opportunities.

288
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 3: Yeah he did. He's had opportunities all season, He's just loaded.

289
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 3: Come on, and the Reds, you know, with runners in

290
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 3: scoring position and when the bases loaded, are among the

291
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 3: worst two worst teams in baseball. That's this was a

292
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 3: perfect encapsulation of their season. And it sucks for Ellie,

293
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 3: it really does. It sucks for Reds fans. I don't

294
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 3: know how else to say it.

295
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 2: Well again, and maybe he needs a few reps next

296
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 2: season too. Is not playing every yeah.

297
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 3: And Jeff Brantley made a point about that is next year,

298
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 3: the kids got to get some days off.

299
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

300
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,359
Speaker 3: And there was actually a moment last night Doug Glanville

301
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 3: on the TV broadcast played for Terry Francona in Philadelphia,

302
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 3: and he had told Terry Francona, I want to play

303
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: all one hundred and sixty two games, right, And there

304
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 3: was a point later in the season where Francona comes

305
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 3: up to him and says, it looks like the bat

306
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 3: is swinging you. I'm giving you a day off.

307
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. He's got to be able to do that with

308
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: Eli Da La Cruz next year. And I think there's

309
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 2: a learning even his advance, his advanced age and all

310
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: the experience he has, Terry would tell he admit that

311
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: he learned something new every day, which is that's what

312
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 2: makes him the Hall of Famer that he is. It

313
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 2: was awfully tough to watch Game one because you know,

314
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 2: it was out a hand early, and I think for

315
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: a lot of Reds fans, did you have a sense

316
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 2: like as soon as Otani hit that that jack jack

317
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 2: that first, You're like, man, maybe this this run is over.

318
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: You know what to do that to the first inning,

319
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 2: the first pitch, But boy, you know that was an

320
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 2: eye opening moment for me, and it got worse from there.

321
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: In Game one, you're hoping for a bounce back ten

322
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: who it started that way, and you're like, we got

323
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 2: to get more than two runs against this Dodger team,

324
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: and they didn't until it was too late. Yeah, I

325
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 2: mean I kind of figured once the home runs happened

326
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 2: that the game one was over, just because I know

327
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 2: the Reds don't have the ability to score a bunch

328
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 2: of runs, So you know, that one I thought it

329
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: was over. But I legitimately thought the plan going into

330
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 2: last night, if lttel can go through the order once

331
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 2: and then get you through to Lodolo, you'll be good.

332
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 2: Everybody on the planet knew that you can't leave Lodolo

333
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 2: or Lattel in more than that batter in the fourth

334
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 2: Yea and Francona did. There was, if I have any criticisms,

335
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 2: there was times towards the end of this season where

336
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: it felt like Terry Francona didn't have the feel for

337
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 2: the game. And that's concerning to me. All right, off season,

338
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 2: Red's gonna We're gonna talk about this all offseason. And

339
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 2: now a lot of this is it's not about Terry

340
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 2: francne Is. It's gonna certainly be on the front off.

341
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: It's going to be Bob and Phil in time to

342
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 2: open up the purse strings, micause you got this far.

343
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 2: My final point is this, Yes, you can be happy

344
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: that the Reds made an appearance in the postseason, but

345
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 2: you should at no point feel satisfied with what they accomplished.

346
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 2: They shouldn't feel that way, Bob, Phil, Nick, Terry, every

347
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 2: player on that team. There was a sense of accomplishment

348
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: in the clubhouse last night, and that's bs. They should

349
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 2: not feel that way because this team underachieved. As far

350
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: as I'm concerned, A lot left on the table and

351
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: waiting for that moment to go Okay, good this this

352
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: is a pause, and now we move forward.

353
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 3: The goal should always be much, much more than just

354
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 3: making an appearance in the postseason. The Reds have the

355
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 3: longest playoff advancement drought in North American sports at over

356
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 3: thirty years. Until you change, and until you actually advance,

357
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 3: no one's going to take you seriously. And I will

358
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 3: not celebrate postseason appearances. Don't buy the postseason built for

359
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 3: fall shirt. So you spend your money however you want.

360
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 3: I don't care until I'm not going to do it.

361
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 2: I'm waiting till you do. You got to do something.

362
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 2: You got to show me something. Win the division, win something.

363
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 2: Austin Elmore late today new in ESPN fifteen thirty. Are

364
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 2: lots to talk about with him and to Pike, thanks Budy,

365
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 2: appreciate you seven hundred WW. Every time there's a protest

366
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 2: place like oh Portland, for example, and people are on

367
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 2: the streets, and then the people in law enforcement wearing

368
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 2: the helmets and have the batons out and the shields,

369
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 2: and when these people get arrested for not they always

370
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 2: start crying. You kind of knew it's coming. If you

371
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 2: don't get out, you're surprised at you're crying that you're

372
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 2: getting arrested. I just I don't understand it. I don't

373
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 2: I don't get it. But that's part of old Agehoe

374
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 2: is getting all banged ups. Loney back on seven hundred WLW.

375
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 2: All right, the ankle's making but we're making progress on

376
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,439
Speaker 2: the ankle. Three more weeks and I can put it.

377
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 2: How about that good times to be had? You know this,

378
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 2: I don't know, and I haven't listened at all because

379
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 2: I've been kind of out of it. But the government shutdown.

380
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 2: Get into that for a minute here before other stuff.

381
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 2: You know, it's the same tired political game that goes on,

382
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 2: and if you're cheering for one side or the other,

383
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 2: then you know, maybe you want to take pause and

384
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 2: just listen for a second. Because everything you need to

385
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 2: know about this shutdown comes from a headline from of

386
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 2: all things, the athletic, and the headline is that what

387
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 2: the athletic? What has that got to do with the shutdown?

388
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 2: Here's your headline. Air Force versus Navy football will go

389
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 2: on as scheduled. The ongoing US government shutdown will not

390
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 2: impact the playing of college sports games at Air Force

391
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 2: Army and Navy. What does that tell you about the

392
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 2: seriousness of those who are shutting our government down. It's

393
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 2: all theater. If you manufacture a crisis and pretend it's

394
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 2: the other side that's evil in doing this, and you

395
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 2: get enough people to believe you, you win, because fear

396
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 2: is the currency of power. The truth is how much

397
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 2: has actually closed? Do you have an idea of how

398
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: you look at all the federal government? The eleventy billion

399
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 2: eleveny what is it, eleven dy billion dot, whatever the

400
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 2: hell it is, of how much money we spend every minute?

401
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: The shutdown effects about eight percent of that federal budget.

402
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 2: Eight percent of the federal budget is not funded currently

403
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 2: because of the shutdown. In the order itself, it requires

404
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 2: it non essential departments shut down. What should enrage all

405
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 2: of us, especially those of us who are either those

406
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 2: of you who are really conservative Magget conservatives or lean

407
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 2: to the right, or libertarian like me, because that means

408
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 2: that the Maga Doze phonies consider ninety two percent of

409
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 2: government to be essential. I thought, this is about shedding.

410
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a second, because you may,

411
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: just because of the nature of the way this is going,

412
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 2: shed some jobs here. But so that means that those

413
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 2: who are going to shut this thing down, ninety two

414
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 2: percent of government is essential. Well, what was Doze about then?

415
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 2: And Dooze literally figuratively didn't do anything. So you have defense,

416
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 2: you have veterans affairs, you have health and human services,

417
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 2: and labor and education and energy, and a bunch of

418
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 2: air traffic controllers, Transportation Security Administration TSA officers. My daughter's

419
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 2: flying today, so she'll be fine. Customers in Border Protection

420
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: IRS FBI, all those agents are still on the job.

421
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 2: About a quarter the FAA, though, is going to be furloughed,

422
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 2: which again is just just enough, just enough disruption for

423
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,959
Speaker 2: someone to know. It's not going to shut the airlines down.

424
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna shut anything, but it's gonna be just

425
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 2: a little more, a little more crowd, a little more slow,

426
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 2: little more plotting, just enough to maybe get your tender.

427
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 2: You're still gonna get your student loan, You're still gonna

428
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 2: get your Social Security, you're gonna blieve me, you're gonna

429
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 2: be able to get your PLAVIXX. You're gonna be fine.

430
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 2: But if you you know the thing is, if you

431
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: really want to stop this BS, we're gonna shut the

432
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 2: government down. Every time we don't get our way, or

433
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 2: to send a message and bring America to its knees,

434
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 2: which really doesn't have you really want to stop this,

435
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 2: you know, Congress, the executive branch, the judiciaria. How about

436
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 2: you don't get paid during a shutdown? What you can't

437
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 2: not pay us? How about your health benefits go away?

438
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 2: Members of the Senate, members of the Congress, you get

439
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 2: in it. You can't go to the doctor, you can't

440
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 2: get You're gonna have to pay out of pocket for

441
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 2: stuff when the government shuts down. I know, okay, we can't.

442
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 2: We gotta pay these guys because it's constitutional, it's protected.

443
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 2: But what about the benefits? Why don't we cut the

444
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 2: spict off to that? Why don you guys vote on that.

445
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 2: Put that up there and say hello, and every time

446
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 2: we shut the government down, we can't come with a

447
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 2: budget and we'll get paid. But yeah, the healthcare of

448
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 2: the perks, the car surface, all that stuff that they

449
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 2: get that goes away. So we open things. But you

450
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: don't think that would maybe we'd see a lot fewer

451
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 2: disruptions like this. I would, because you know it's a

452
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 2: temper tantrum. We want outrage for our cause. Not outrage

453
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 2: at the system that encourages it. You know, if you

454
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 2: again on that note, if you want to hear from

455
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 2: constituents and they you know, they want you maybe paying

456
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 2: attention to all the government's shutting down. This is bad.

457
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 2: We've got to get this thing together and on what's

458
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 2: causing this whole thing. If you cut medicare off in

459
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 2: social security, that get it people's attention, right and and

460
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: but now it's like, well, okay, what's the narrative on

461
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 2: this thing, the shutdown? Well, Schumer really is under pressure

462
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 2: from his base to show that Democrats are want to

463
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 2: take the hammer to Trump and those the AOC who's

464
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 2: been all over the place, the EOC is the world

465
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 2: of progressives of the party are angry as Trump continues

466
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 2: to get what he wants, and so like, hey, we'll

467
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 2: shut things down and we'll use healthcare in this case

468
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 2: as a pretext. And you know, the sad part about

469
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 2: this thing is what we want. Okay, we need to

470
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: save Obamacare. That's what this is about. This is about

471
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 2: saving We got to there's twenty two million people who

472
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,919
Speaker 2: depend on this, and I agreed, and the healthcare has

473
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 2: been a mess for a long time and Republicans hold

474
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 2: a majority, but Democrats are needed to move those funding

475
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 2: bills in the Senate, And so now it's the party

476
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 2: attacking Republicans is irresponsible for threatening shutdowns in the past,

477
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 2: and now they're shutting things down themselves and throwing their

478
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,719
Speaker 2: own temper tantrum, which further illustrates the silliness of politics.

479
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 2: I will say, though, that as I look at this,

480
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 2: maybe there's a chance that the federal workforce comes out

481
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 2: and maybe it's a little bit smaller as result of

482
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 2: this thing. Because you know Trump is and he's great

483
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 2: at calling somebody's bluff saying okay, went after the Office

484
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 2: of Budget Management and say, how about this, We'll start

485
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 2: permanent job cuts as the government shuts down. But we

486
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 2: know the government really never shuts down, as I just

487
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 2: pointed out, by only eight percent of government shutting down,

488
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 2: ninety two percent is still fully functional and funded, and somehow,

489
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 2: some way, within a week or two at the most,

490
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: the two parties always work out in agreement. And what

491
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 2: the agreement is is, hey, you know what, we're just

492
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 2: going to kick the can down the road for a

493
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 2: few more months and spend a lot more money doing it,

494
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,719
Speaker 2: bankrupting America even further. That sound like a plan to you.

495
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: That sounds like a plan, and that's what happens every

496
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 2: stinging time. So the idea that somehow is like we're

497
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,919
Speaker 2: fighting for this guys who we're fighting for the American

498
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: But they're fighting for yourselves. You're fighting for power and

499
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 2: scaring people is the currency you spend to get what

500
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 2: you want. And that's really how things work. That's how

501
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 2: government works. But helps like eight percent. Okay, you look

502
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 2: at that, go wait, wait a minute, this is about

503
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 2: eight percent of the government. Yeah, the important stuff, that

504
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 2: is stuff important to them. It still stays open, some

505
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 2: big deal. It's illustrated by that point. The Air Force

506
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 2: Navy football game will still go on. Well why isn't

507
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 2: that shut down. I'm not saying I enjoy Service academy battles,

508
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: especially the Army Navy game. We didn't like that. It's

509
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: about as American as it gets. Tell you what, I've

510
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 2: seen a game in Navy Marine Corps Stadium. It's a

511
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 2: phenomenal play. I haven't seen anything at the other academies,

512
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 2: but they're in Maryland. Absolutely, it puts a lump in

513
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 2: your throat. It makes the hair in the back of

514
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 2: your next ten. It's all of that. If you've ever

515
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 2: been to a game there, it's fantastic to watch the

516
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 2: midshipman come marching. It's really really cool. But okay, if

517
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: we shut government down, why are we doing that? Well,

518
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 2: that's different, is it is? That doesn't seem essential? Yeah,

519
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: but you can't. Really that's punishing the athletes of Yeah,

520
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 2: but you're the ones guys shutting the government down, not them,

521
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 2: not our soldiers and airmen and sailors. Well you don't understand.

522
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 2: I understand perfectly. What you're doing is you're jerking our chain.

523
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 2: Like if you really wanted to get stuff done in Washington,

524
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 2: if there's an impetus to do that, you would. But

525
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: you know, we again it's the nature of politics because

526
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 2: we took what works in sports, and that is you

527
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,959
Speaker 2: know this, this this rabid fan base that we have

528
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 2: for you look at look at everything in sports are

529
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:18,439
Speaker 2: gone all right? You look at people buying Bengals jerseys

530
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 2: and helmets. You know, you see somebody wearing a I

531
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 2: don't know, a Trump hat, or someone who has a

532
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 2: bunch of you know, liberal bumper stickers on their Volvo

533
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 2: driving on seventy five I mean, you're kind of buying

534
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 2: that merch too. It's it's to we take in sports

535
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 2: and just said, hey, you know what they worked for

536
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 2: sports looking to rabbit. People are over sports. We'll just

537
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 2: apply to the politics. That's pretty damn good. Let's do that.

538
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 2: And we've kind of made a theater so you know,

539
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 2: we're the ones that encourageous behavior. If we want to

540
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 2: stop the nonsense. And I don't know if that day

541
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 2: is coming or we said okay, enoughs enough already, then

542
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 2: we say, all right, we're going to make some changes

543
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 2: on who we vote for and who we're going to

544
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 2: send a wash into our bidding. But that's not going

545
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 2: to happen for a very very long time, if any

546
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 2: time in my lifetime are yours? But the shocking fact

547
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 2: of the matter is ninety two percent of government still

548
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 2: operates just fine. It's the eight percent. It's kind of like,

549
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 2: I don't want to I'm trying to look think at

550
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 2: a really good metaphor for this kind of like let's say,

551
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 2: I don't know, you show up to a place that

552
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 2: you have business with and there's a front office and

553
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 2: you go the doors are locked, and the receptionist desk

554
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 2: is empty and it's dark. But meanwhile, in the back,

555
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 2: if you kind of look around where the receptionist area is,

556
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 2: you're like, there's people back there working. That's kind of

557
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 2: what this is like. It's like, I don't know, a

558
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,679
Speaker 2: company holiday or something like, yeah, okay, well the forward

559
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 2: facing people, the receptionists, the janitors, the vendors that okay,

560
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 2: you know what, we're not going to put snacks back

561
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 2: in the vending machine this week or two weeks, but

562
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 2: everything else is still going to work. Well, that's what

563
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 2: this is. Government's still working, all the important stuff's getting done.

564
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 2: It's just they're showing us just how silly the whole

565
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 2: battle is over. Well, what is this? This is over healthcare.

566
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 2: I mean, you can negotiate this and not close the governm.

567
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 2: But every time we have a shutdown, it's because of something,

568
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 2: somebody trying to make a political point. And certainly they're

569
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: fighting for the soul to the Democratic Party with the

570
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 2: progressive Left and the Centrists and the you know, the

571
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 2: Greg Lansman's against the others and so on, and that's

572
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 2: all well and good, but I don't understand why you

573
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 2: need to do this to make your point. You know,

574
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 2: healthcare has been in atrocity in this country for a

575
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 2: long time. And maybe I'll get this at a later

576
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,719
Speaker 2: date in that top of my head. You know, if

577
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 2: you look over the last even twenty years, the number

578
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 2: of businesses that are offering healthcare benefits, and particularly it's

579
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 2: it's small business are fewer and fewer.

580
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 6: Now.

581
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 2: If you're in a big company, you can offer great

582
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 2: healthcare benefits. And I've been working for a big company.

583
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 2: I take advantage that I just got off medical leave

584
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 2: with ankle surgery because my company offers a wonderful health

585
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: benefits package. And I'm very very fortunate and blessed and

586
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 2: lucky to have that. I get that because if you

587
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: work for a smaller company or smaller companies or a

588
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 2: mom and pop, you can't afford the healthcare benefits used

589
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 2: to be. That's like, okay, we've got to offer this

590
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 2: stuff to stay comped. If you can't afford to do

591
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 2: that anymore, and fear in fear companies, small companies and

592
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: that'd be those who employ under two hundred, which are

593
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 2: the bulk of employers in America, can't do that any longer.

594
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 2: And we've heard from Democrats about how we have to

595
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 2: save that for people. Okay, good, what's your plan. Well,

596
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 2: we've got this Affordable Care Act thing. Okay, how's that work? Well,

597
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: it pays your itself, except for the fact that we

598
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 2: have to subsidize about twenty two million people for them

599
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 2: to be able to afford it, and then even the

600
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 2: people who aren't subsidized really can't afford it all that much.

601
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 2: That works really well when you have it, but it

602
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 2: really cost a hell of a lot of money. So

603
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 2: we have to take government money to fund the healthcare

604
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 2: program that we passed in the first place because we

605
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 2: said it would save a lot of people. Well, then

606
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: it doesn't pay for itself. It doesn't work. Well, it works,

607
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 2: we just have to prop it up with subsidy. Well,

608
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 2: then it doesn't work. If that's the case, And that's

609
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 2: what they're dying on the sol far right now, or

610
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 2: at least I guess the theater of dying on the

611
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 2: hill for you and I. Meanwhile, we've had Republicans in

612
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 2: power for a while, and when they continue to shoot

613
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 2: down the Affordable Care Acts for pointing out what I

614
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 2: just said and other things, nod your head and you

615
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 2: agree with them, then you go, well, what's your plan? Well,

616
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 2: have you heard any plans. I mean, we spend a lot.

617
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 2: We're talking about spending on defense and ice and all

618
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 2: these other things, not saying that those aren't bad causes,

619
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: but healthcare is pretty important to a lot of us.

620
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 2: And the older you got, the more important it is.

621
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 2: Trust me, I'm the poster boy for that right now.

622
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 2: It's not like Republicans are going, here's what we're going

623
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 2: to do for healthcare other than oppose the ACA?

624
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 7: What else?

625
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 2: You got nothing? So, you know, instead of working for

626
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: the party and our cause and our belief in getting

627
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 2: us voted and get us in power, and the promises

628
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 2: were going to change and everyone's life is going to

629
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 2: be better, and we're going to hit you here. We

630
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: are now well into Trump's term and I'm not quite

631
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 2: seeing where all this money is. Everyone's going to be rich,

632
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 2: and all the promises are made in the trail or

633
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 2: not quite comes to fruition. Similarly, when Democrats get elected,

634
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 2: same thing. The promises made are never kept. Some of

635
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 2: them are the big ones day we kind of forgot about.

636
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: But by and large, you know, healthcare isn't getting any better.

637
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: It's getting worse. Arguably, it's getting worse. For us, but

638
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 2: shutting government down to make for some gestures just stupid.

639
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 2: It's irresponsible, which is fairly illustrative of how politics work

640
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 2: for us, which is simply just not at all. But hey,

641
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 2: the good news is Air Force and Navy are gonna

642
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 2: play football this weekend, So the important stuff has been

643
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 2: left open and saved by the federal government. And maybe

644
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 2: we're a little bit cranky this morning because staying up

645
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 2: late last night and getting fully invested in this Reds

646
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 2: baseball team that bitterly disappointed us. Maybe there's another reason.

647
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 2: Maybe looking well, you know, we've got the now we

648
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 2: don't have the Bengals this weekend, got the Lions coming

649
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 2: to town against the Bengals. And if you thought that

650
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 2: Minnesota was bad, you think, okay, maybe that's a one

651
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 2: not a one off, that's a trend. And I don't

652
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 2: think the Lions are going to come in here and

653
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 2: lay an egg. Probably not. And so we've time to

654
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 2: look for things to distract us and go we'll take

655
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 2: my man off the pain in agony real life, get

656
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 2: me something new in jail. We don't even have that

657
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 2: right now. I was tough watch last night. If you

658
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 2: stayed up late to watch. I tuned out about the

659
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 2: sixth seventh inning, said, I know how this movie is

660
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 2: going to end. I guess I can watch the highlights

661
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 2: in the morning, and I did, and I was like, yeah,

662
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 2: I'm glad I got caught a few hours sleep last night.

663
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 2: Reds get eliminated in LA at the hands of the

664
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 2: almighty Dodgers. Is it a payroll issue? I Austin Olmore

665
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 2: was just don said no, not as much, because Milwaukee's

666
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: doing just fine and they have very low pay one

667
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 2: of the lowest in baseball. So is it all a

668
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 2: payroll issue or is it a front office issue?

669
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 4: Now?

670
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 2: The front office, starting today has to get to work,

671
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 2: get some bats in the lineup to help the Reds

672
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 2: get over the homp, and hopefully at this time next

673
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,479
Speaker 2: year we'll be talking not about a wild card, but

674
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 2: god forbid, maybe a division championship. Maybe sitting out and

675
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 2: going okay, we're getting ready to find out who we

676
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 2: play the wildcard teams because we're not one of them.

677
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 2: And then hopefully on the division we move around the

678
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 2: divisionals and then the League Series and of course the

679
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 2: World Series, and we'll see what happens. Hopefully that is

680
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: the case. In twenty twenty six and twenty twenty seven

681
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 2: for the Red Lags. Hopefully Joe Burrow heals in the offseason.

682
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 2: I don't even know if he comes back in December,

683
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 2: that's going to be enough the way this team is

684
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 2: playing right now. But hopefully brighter days are ahead. I

685
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 2: think that's probably true for our sports teams as well

686
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 2: as this country. At some point we will wake up.

687
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 2: That's how it is. Scott Flown Show at five, three, seven, four, nine,

688
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 2: seven tho eight hundred, Big One Talkback iHeartRadio app coming

689
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 2: up at ten oh seven this morning. Here's an interesting

690
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 2: story that kind of developed when I was out, and

691
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 2: that is a truce between the Archdiocese of Cincinnati and

692
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 2: the Girl Scouts of Western Ohio. And in case you

693
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 2: haven't heard the story, because there'sen a lot of important

694
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 2: stories going, but I like to focus on the local

695
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 2: stuff too. As the Archdiocese apparently did a onoint eighty,

696
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: the Girl Scouts are going to get kicked out because

697
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 2: of their very leftist pro I don't know abortion policies.

698
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 2: I don't think that's probably true at all with Girl Scouts,

699
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 2: but that's what the previous archbishop thought. We got a

700
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 2: new archbishop and looked at it and said, no, no,

701
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 2: that's that's not what the Girl Scouts are about. The

702
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 2: Girl Scouts have been saved for our community. I think

703
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 2: that is a wonderful thing, because if you don't believe me,

704
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 2: and I know there are fewer kids and Scouting ever before,

705
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 2: I think we need it now more than ever because

706
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 2: if you look around at the bloodshed, the violence, the nonsense,

707
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 2: and the problems that happened this summer throughout Cincinnati, I

708
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 2: know the people that were doing that were probably not

709
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 2: Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. We kind of need more

710
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 2: of them in these times, not fewer of them. Anyway.

711
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 2: We'll get to that right after news update on the

712
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 2: Home of the Bengals, the Home of the Reds, and

713
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 2: other frustration. Seven hundred WWD Cincinnati. It's slowing off the

714
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 2: DL and back on seven hundred w welw and it's

715
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,879
Speaker 2: good to be back after sitting around for a couple

716
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 2: of weeks. Jump right back into it. So one of

717
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:40,319
Speaker 2: the stories I followed We All Together, was involving the

718
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 2: Archdiocese of Cincinnati ending there over one hundred year partnership

719
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 2: with the Girl Scouts of America because the bishop, the

720
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 2: Archbishop Denis Schnur, I guess the former bishop, I should

721
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 2: say at this point, just kind of out of the

722
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 2: blue center letter to parishioners about a year ago explaining

723
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 2: that at the end of this year, being twenty twenty five,

724
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 2: every Girl Start Troope would be kicked off unless they

725
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 2: converted to an American Heritage Girl Trooper leieve. And this

726
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 2: had to do with some noise coming from the Girl

727
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 2: Scouts nationally anyway, because out of you know this, but

728
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 2: they kind of operate. They're like independent operators. They can

729
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 2: pick and choose what type of things they want to

730
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 2: teach and what they're gonna what programs are going to

731
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,359
Speaker 2: offer girls, and that depends on where you live. Makes sense, right,

732
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 2: And so the Girl Scouts wasn't high largely under the

733
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 2: Archidives Cincinnati are Catholics themselves, and so the concern was

734
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 2: they're going to teach a LGBTQ plus curricula to the girls,

735
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 2: which was never happening in the first place. And now

736
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 2: you have a new archbishop and Robert Casey, who read this,

737
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 2: looked at it and said, yeah, they haven't been doing

738
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 2: it before, and they came to an agreement although I

739
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 2: can't figure it out myself. If you come to an

740
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 2: agreement on something you haven't violated and haven't been doing well,

741
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 2: what was the point of this all? Exercise? Jo on

742
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 2: the show this morning on seven hundred WLW, whos a

743
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 2: Jennifer British? He's a west Side Derek Trupley a Girl

744
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 2: Scout leader and joins the show once again to discuss well.

745
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 2: First of all, congratulations Jennifer.

746
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 4: Oh, thank you, Scott.

747
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 5: And it's not just me that deserves congratulating. So many

748
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,760
Speaker 5: women work tirelessly with the archdiocese to come to disagreement.

749
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 7: Where the world.

750
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 2: I know that these days the scouting in generals and

751
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 2: it's been declining and been looked down by many people

752
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 2: for years. It peaked I think in the nineteen seventies.

753
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 2: I was a Scout and my dad was an Eagle.

754
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 2: My brother's an Eagle. So I've been through boy Scouts myself,

755
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 2: and so it has a special place in my heart.

756
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 2: I understand what it does for a young man and

757
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 2: young women and does create future leaders. Gives you a

758
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 2: base of knowledge. You get to experience different things that

759
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 2: you may consider for career or vocation, whatever it might be,

760
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 2: It makes you a broader person, more into a person.

761
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,240
Speaker 2: So I have a fun place in my heart for Scouting,

762
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 2: and it tore my heart apart as yours did to

763
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,360
Speaker 2: see what you've gone through over the last year and

764
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 2: seemingly unnecessarily.

765
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean Scouting for me to family tradition,

766
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 5: it's something that you know, I'm a truth leader. It

767
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 5: gives me purpose, It gives me an opportunity to give

768
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 5: back to girls and gives them opportunities that they would

769
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 5: never have through school or through normal means. And so

770
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 5: it's just it's an amazing program in general. To your point,

771
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 5: we've been here a lot over the past year, a

772
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 5: lot of uncertainty, a lot of fog over what would

773
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 5: happen with our troops and and how we would continue

774
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 5: to operate in the community. And this is a big day,

775
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 5: a big deal for our troops and Catholic leaders across

776
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 5: the arch type.

777
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 2: The previous Archbishop, Denis Schnurr said, Girl Scouts embraced and

778
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 2: promoted an impoverished worldview regarding gender and sexuality, and that

779
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 2: includes the Girl Scouts of Western Ohio that the chapter's

780
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 2: you on gender goes against Catholic teaching saying that they've

781
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 2: used our false and harmful. But I've had you and

782
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 2: others on the show several times and said, well, no,

783
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: we you know, we don't teach that stuff. We don't

784
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 2: have an inclusive together patch we hand out, we don't

785
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:03,240
Speaker 2: really celebrate LGBTQ plus prime months and recommending watching movies

786
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 2: that may violate Catholic doctrine because you and other leaders

787
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 2: are Catholic, so you're not going to teach something that

788
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 2: violates your sensibilities.

789
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 5: That's right, And every troop has the opportunity to create

790
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 5: programming that specifics to the troops. You got to think, like,

791
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 5: it's not just Catholic Girl Scouts. They're a Jewish Girl Scouts,

792
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 5: they're Muslim Girl Scouts. What the Girl Scouts does is

793
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 5: help us through the Girl Scout programming, you know, fortify

794
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 5: our faith, so we can pursue anything that is specific

795
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 5: to the girls that we are working for and the

796
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 5: troop and what the troop wants to go after. This

797
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 5: is not something that would ever enter into our troupe

798
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 5: curriculum or programming. Our programming is really about strength and

799
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 5: strengthen strengthening these women, these young ladies as the future

800
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:55,359
Speaker 5: leaders in our community, strong mothers, strong strong women who

801
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 5: can advocate with themselves and and all of that. It's

802
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 5: just not something that would ever enter into a programming.

803
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 5: So to take it away from the girls, to take

804
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 5: away this opportunity from girls just really struck us in

805
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 5: the heart because it was something that it's so special

806
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 5: to us, and specially.

807
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, I can't imagine that if you looked at

808
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: the programming, and granted it's a VN diagram, there's going

809
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:20,879
Speaker 2: to be a lot of overlap. But if you looked

810
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 2: at the programming for the Girl Scouts of Southern California,

811
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 2: the Girl Scouts of Portland, Oregon, the Girl Scouts of

812
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 2: Greater New York City metropolitan area, and compare that to

813
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 2: Cincinnati and Louisville and Indianapolis and Columbus, that it's going

814
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: to differ all that much. I mean, maybe there's differences

815
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 2: between Cincinnati and Columbus Girl Scouts, but again, those are

816
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:41,760
Speaker 2: the nuances of where you live and what the community

817
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 2: values are and that's not going to fly here in

818
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,919
Speaker 2: Southwest Ohio. It never has and so that's what left

819
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: most of us scratching our head. I guess who try

820
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 2: to analyze us and go, okay, well, what's the endgame here?

821
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 2: What did Schnerr want? He just seemingly got some advice

822
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,840
Speaker 2: from I guess maybe at the national level and apply

823
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 2: to to Cincinnati and even sitting down and talking with

824
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 2: you folks, with you ladies, he wouldn't even listen to that.

825
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 2: I mean, it was. It sounded like up until last

826
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 2: minute it was a done deal until he was essential

827
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 2: because of health reasons forced out.

828
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It came as a shock to all

829
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 5: of us, including the Girl Scouts the Western Ohio. To

830
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 5: my knowledge, they were in conversations and were surprised by

831
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 5: the announcement as well, and it hit all of our

832
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 5: group leaders at the same time. So we found out

833
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 5: as the Girls scot leadership was finding out about it

834
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 5: as well. But yes, it was. You know, Archbishoptioner is

835
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 5: now retired for health reasons, as I understand it, and

836
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 5: we have the new Archbishop, Robert Casey, and he took

837
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 5: another look at it and realized the good the Girl

838
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 5: Scouts does for young women across as arch diocees and

839
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,959
Speaker 5: not just young women that you know, women too. There's

840
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 5: so many wonderful, amazing women who have dedicated their lives

841
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:59,720
Speaker 5: to Girl Scouts and getting back to the next generation

842
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,400
Speaker 5: of who were coming up, and we were all impacted severely.

843
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 5: And you know, we talked last year, Scott, I talked

844
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,439
Speaker 5: about how these girls and my own daughter was looking

845
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 5: at me saying, what did we do wrong? It just

846
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 5: felt like such an indictment against us personally, that we

847
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 5: had done something wrong or im moral that was obviously

848
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 5: not the case. And so now I really feel strongly

849
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 5: and I'm so thankful and have so much gratitude to

850
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 5: Archbishop Casey for taking another look at this and realizing

851
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 5: that we can be Girl Scouts and Catholic at the

852
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 5: same time and help with the formation of our girls

853
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,359
Speaker 5: in both. In both areas, we can be fully who

854
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 5: we are and helped to pass along good values, good morals,

855
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 5: the teachings of the Gospel to these girls through Scouting.

856
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 2: Jennifer Brady here she is a Westside Troop leader of

857
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 2: Girl Scouts of Southwestern Ohio and the Catholic Church the

858
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 2: Archdiocese under the new bishop, the newer Bishop, Anyway, Robert Casey,

859
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 2: has decided to allow Girl Scouts to continue as they

860
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 2: have been for now over one hundred years. You can

861
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 2: see your one hundred year partnership continue, which is a

862
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 2: wonderful thing. I look through the Memorandum of Understanding the

863
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 2: MoU as we call it, and what changed.

864
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 5: I think that there's more guidelines for TRUP leaders and

865
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,240
Speaker 5: pastors now in terms of use of diocese and property.

866
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 5: True leaders are going to have to and we were anyway,

867
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 5: we're going to have to demonstrate our care for our

868
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 5: Catholic faith and morals and making sure that we are

869
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 5: are upholding those if we already use diosts and property.

870
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 5: I think it's a good thing. I think this is

871
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 5: a good thing Scott, because I mean, truth be told,

872
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 5: I don't know that the church really understood what the

873
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 5: girls of their parishes were doing or how they were

874
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 5: interacting outside of school and church. And now they're going

875
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 5: to take an active look and they're going to be

876
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 5: paying attention and they're going to see and this is

877
00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 5: truly what was so disheartening about the decision last year

878
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:04,320
Speaker 5: is I don't nobody at the archdiocese they asked some level,

879
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 5: had come to a TRUP meeting or asked what we

880
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 5: were doing, or really understood the programming that we were

881
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 5: doing for our girls, and now they will. They have

882
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 5: to and we have to and that dialogue, that interchange

883
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 5: is so valuable and so important. It gives us a voice,

884
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 5: It helps us be who we are, It helps us

885
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 5: be part of the broader church community, and that's huge.

886
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 2: So what you're saying is the archdiocese, who for one

887
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 2: hundred years welcome Girl Scouts, never really knew what the

888
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 2: Girl Scouts are doing? Is that more on them? Are you.

889
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 5: You know? Good question? I think both. Yeah, I think

890
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 5: we both bear a responsibility for that. I can't say

891
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 5: I don't know what happened one hundred years ago, but

892
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 5: at least my time as trup leader, there was not

893
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 5: a lot of exchange of information at the troop level

894
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:51,840
Speaker 5: right in terms of what we were doing. But now

895
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 5: we're going to have to do that, and that's a

896
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:53,399
Speaker 5: good thing.

897
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 2: Is it frustrating to think that that Schner not only

898
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 2: didn't know, but didn't want to know because you offered

899
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 2: I mean, you guys said, hey, look here's what we do.

900
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 2: Here's a nope, don't care. You guys are out.

901
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 5: It is a little frustrating. I mean I did have

902
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:11,839
Speaker 5: meetings with archdiocese personnel leadership trying to explain what it

903
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,359
Speaker 5: was that we did at the troop level, but by

904
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 5: then the decision has already been made. I think the

905
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 5: most frustrating part of it is, you know, a year

906
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 5: has gone into this, so many women have poured their

907
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 5: hearts and souls into these conversations and trying to make

908
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 5: this right and trying to advocate for our girls. And

909
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,239
Speaker 5: truly we're right back where we started. So there's been

910
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 5: a lot of emotional upheopal and here we are. The

911
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 5: good that has come out of it is a broader understanding.

912
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 5: I think of Girl Scout programming in our Catholic parishes

913
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 5: and I think, like I said before, the archdiocese, parish leadership,

914
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 5: pastor's priest will be more involved with the formation of

915
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 5: the girls in other ways.

916
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's one thing to go, hey, what

917
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 2: are you guys doing, because we're hearing disturbing things from

918
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:01,400
Speaker 2: other Girl Scouts facility in other states and areas, what

919
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,319
Speaker 2: are you guys doing specific or But to not even

920
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,240
Speaker 2: listen to what you guys presented to me is abhorrent.

921
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,240
Speaker 2: And at the same time I realized that Archbishop Schner

922
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 2: had to leave and retire because of medical reasons. Had

923
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 2: that not occurred, we wouldn't be having this conversation. What

924
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 2: do you guys, would just simply.

925
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 5: Be out Yeah, one hundred percent. I truly believe that

926
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 5: it was ar Cases taking a look at this, understanding

927
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,720
Speaker 5: what our girls needed and that, you know, their formation

928
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 5: as Catholic women is bigger than just what they can

929
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 5: learn at school.

930
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

931
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 5: And by the way, they're going to be in a

932
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,879
Speaker 5: secular world, They're going to be exposed to things at

933
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,720
Speaker 5: some point in time. It is important that we expose

934
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 5: them in the bounds of like a comfortable and safe place.

935
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:53,880
Speaker 5: And I'm not advocating for exposure to DEI, gender identity

936
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,359
Speaker 5: content anything like that, but it's important that we look

937
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,319
Speaker 5: at them as whole people who will be out in

938
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 5: the world, will not be sheltered by their parish community

939
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 5: for their entire lives. So Arch Casey took a look

940
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 5: at that, understood that, and realized that the full formation

941
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 5: of girls is equally as important as just their spiritual formation,

942
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 5: and gave us another shot. And I'm I'm just so grateful.

943
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 2: It feels like a new era in the Archdiocese of

944
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 2: Cincinnati with Robert Casey. And this is not the first

945
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 2: good thing I've heard about him and some of the

946
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,239
Speaker 2: decisions he made maybe been a little bit younger and

947
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 2: open mind and going, hey, you know, we need to

948
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:30,800
Speaker 2: kick the time, take a look at things as opposed

949
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 2: to just simply listening to another voice or outside. I

950
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 2: don't know what Schner was listening to, if anyone seemed

951
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 2: like his mind was made out about eliminating girl Scouts

952
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 2: had been around for one hundred years in Cincinnati, and

953
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 2: you know, as conservative and traditional as we are here

954
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 2: in Cincinnati, you know, you start messing with things like

955
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 2: the girl Scouts. To me, that's up there, scoutings up

956
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 2: there with like baseball in the American flag in Cony dogs.

957
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 5: Right, yes, yes, that's why it was such a head

958
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,879
Speaker 5: scratcher when the decision came down. It's like, why why

959
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 5: take up dismantle with girl Scouts in your in your parishes?

960
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,359
Speaker 5: You know, there's so many other bigger things to fight

961
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 5: or to advocate for for our community other than girl

962
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 5: Scouts in troops where we're trusted adults. So, by the way,

963
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,920
Speaker 5: have to go through extensive training for the archdises just

964
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 5: to volunteer for these for these troops and these positions

965
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,439
Speaker 5: trusted adults are not trusted in that way to take

966
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 5: care of these girls. And so yeah, I mean it's

967
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,200
Speaker 5: it's it's been a conundrum that we've been wrestling with

968
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 5: for quite some time. I think Archbishop Casey took another

969
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 5: look at and said, you know what, we have to

970
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,880
Speaker 5: trust the women of our parish or leading these troops.

971
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 5: We have to have a little bit more oversight, we

972
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 5: have to have a little bit better understanding, and they

973
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 5: have to you know, prove what they're doing with on

974
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 5: bass and property. That's not a problem for us. I'm

975
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 5: always been more than open about sharing exactly what it

976
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 5: is that we're doing. I think it's it's amazing that

977
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 5: people want to know and want to care about what

978
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,720
Speaker 5: it is that we're teaching girls. But to your point

979
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 5: about just a change in what's happening in the art

980
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:11,959
Speaker 5: at the archdiopcy level, I'm so hopeful that Archbishop Casey

981
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:13,839
Speaker 5: has come in and taking a look at things and said,

982
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 5: you know what, there's another way to do this. This

983
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:20,520
Speaker 5: is not an indictment for me on Archbishop Schner, but

984
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,440
Speaker 5: I think that there's always more than one way to

985
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,680
Speaker 5: get things done, and if we can be open minded

986
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,799
Speaker 5: enough and listen to each other enough and more we

987
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,720
Speaker 5: can find a pass forward. And it's even the toughest,

988
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 5: toughest things that we have to.

989
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 2: Well, well, that's a tenant of the gospel, is that

990
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 2: the conversation right and learning from each other, and that

991
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 2: was completely absent when it came to Archbishop Sneer. Robert

992
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:46,439
Speaker 2: Casey sounds like a guy wants to sit down and listen.

993
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,359
Speaker 2: And quite honestly, there's been no you guys haven't chance

994
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 2: to change your policy at all. That's what I look

995
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,799
Speaker 2: at this MoU and go, hey, three years you got

996
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 2: the deal done, and certainly you know they knowing what

997
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 2: you're about, and you knowing what they are about, you

998
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 2: can strike a partnership. But I think that was one

999
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 2: way street for so long. I don't know why and

1000
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 2: how it got lost in the in the mind of Schner.

1001
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 2: But Robert Casey sounds like a good guy in this

1002
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 2: regard and welcome to the girl scouts back. And I

1003
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,720
Speaker 2: think too, if you look at this long brutal summer

1004
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 2: that we had large and a lot of a teen

1005
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,040
Speaker 2: violence involved, and a lot of teens doing the wrong

1006
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 2: thing scouting and girls scouting in particular, or something. As

1007
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 2: you mentioned, it creates virtuous, upstanding young women. We need

1008
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 2: more of that, not less.

1009
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,720
Speaker 5: Not less, problem solving people who are critical thinkers, people

1010
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:35,440
Speaker 5: who can help to lead their community through you know,

1011
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 5: tough times, all of these things Scouting does. All of

1012
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 5: these things Scouting does, and so yes, we absolutely need

1013
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 5: more of that. And that's what I mean when I

1014
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,880
Speaker 5: say it's not just it's religious formation first and foremost,

1015
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 5: the formation of young women into good, upstanding, contributing members

1016
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 5: of society. This is one of those programs that does it,

1017
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 5: you know, and the other thing that this whole situation

1018
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,280
Speaker 5: is really done. I do think that there's some positivity

1019
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,759
Speaker 5: that's coming out of it. When I share the news

1020
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 5: with my daughter, she was just so proud. The girls

1021
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 5: actually were advocating from themselves.

1022
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:09,439
Speaker 4: Good.

1023
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,760
Speaker 5: I don't know if you know that, but the girls

1024
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:16,239
Speaker 5: were sending letters to the archbishop, you know, coloring pictures

1025
00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 5: and saying things like, you know, how important girl Scouts

1026
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:23,880
Speaker 5: lives to them. There was an archdiocese why letter writing campaign.

1027
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 5: And so what we've taught our girls through and through

1028
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 5: all of this is that their voices matter, that they

1029
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 5: can advocate for themselves, that they can ask for more

1030
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:37,840
Speaker 5: and they're not. They truly can't stand up as leaders

1031
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 5: in their community. When I share the news with my daughter,

1032
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:42,640
Speaker 5: she looked at me, up at me, and oh, tears

1033
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 5: in her eyes. This will get emotional. But we did it, mom,

1034
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 5: we did it. And I said, yes, we did. We

1035
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 5: did it as a community of women, faithful women who

1036
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,720
Speaker 5: care about the people around us and the community around

1037
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,319
Speaker 5: us and making a better day.

1038
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 4: And we did it.

1039
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:57,400
Speaker 7: We're so so happy.

1040
00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:58,959
Speaker 2: That has got to be because that's a rare moment

1041
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 2: for parents are to empower your child like that, to say, hey,

1042
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 2: you know what, if you fight hard enough for something

1043
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:06,279
Speaker 2: you believe and you can make a difference, you can win,

1044
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:09,719
Speaker 2: you can be you can't win and get what you

1045
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 2: want if you try to do it the right way.

1046
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:13,239
Speaker 2: And I mean that's something is to carry her for

1047
00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 2: the rest of her life. That's a that's a core

1048
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 2: tenant that she saw in action. How cool is that?

1049
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 5: Oh, it's amazing. My heart felt with a lot of pride,

1050
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 5: not just for the work that I did, minimal, you know,

1051
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,439
Speaker 5: work that I did, but the work that so many

1052
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 5: women the Catholic Committee for GSWO GSWO Leadership, I mean,

1053
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 5: they were the ones at the table having these tough conversations, negotiating, compromising,

1054
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 5: coming up with a pass forward. That's the hard work.

1055
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 5: But our girls, their voices are the reasons why and

1056
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 5: care for them are the reasons why we got to

1057
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 5: see They got to see it at the table to

1058
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:50,839
Speaker 5: make this happen. So yes, it's an amazing opportunity for

1059
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 5: these young girls to see what advocacy and action can

1060
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 5: lead to. I can't tell you how many people Scott

1061
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 5: told me last year, You're not going to change any thing.

1062
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,319
Speaker 5: That's impossible. This is what it is. Move on, and

1063
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 5: we didn't. The girls and the women of Girl Scouts

1064
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,719
Speaker 5: in the archdiocese didn't move on. We didn't stop to

1065
00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 5: continue to advocate for ourselves in the right way, in

1066
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:15,360
Speaker 5: a positive way with this course.

1067
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 2: Jennifer Brady, west Side Troop Leader, congratulations and a victory

1068
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:23,799
Speaker 2: well deserved. All the best to you, Scott, Thank you,

1069
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,360
Speaker 2: Take care. Yeah, I hear that I can help, but

1070
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,960
Speaker 2: think that you know, God works in mysterious ways, and

1071
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:32,800
Speaker 2: you certainly never want to pray for someone else's demise

1072
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 2: or you know, health or something like that. But the

1073
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,360
Speaker 2: timing of Archbishop Schneer getting sick and having to resign

1074
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 2: because of health reasons. It certainly worked out for the

1075
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,440
Speaker 2: Girl Scouts in this case because had he not, they

1076
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 2: would be done. And that is it's an abomination not

1077
00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:50,360
Speaker 2: to not to sit down at least listen to what

1078
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 2: they have to say. You have all the credit in

Speaker 2: a Barbie leg is the atrophy probably is.

1098
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 8: What the I still cannot get over the fact that

1099
00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 8: you went that long with an injury that required that

1100
00:53:57,600 --> 00:53:58,560
Speaker 8: much time off.

1101
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 2: Well, right, I know what what does that say about

1102
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow?

Speaker 2: at that now. Yeah, I had a ruptured tendon to

1107
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 2: my foot. It turned out was I had a little

1108
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 2: bit of foot paint. Been doing that for a couple

1109
00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 2: of months. But all good. You want to know, I

1110
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 2: don't want to hear about how hard is it when

1111
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:26,919
Speaker 2: you women give birth. You guys have for three months

1112
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,040
Speaker 2: been on the air for a minute and a half.

1113
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 7: Were not going there.

1114
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 8: I missed you, and I host you to I haven't

1115
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 8: used my computer in so long that it decided right

1116
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 8: now is the time to update, so as I get

1117
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 8: myself organized here a little bit.

1118
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:40,320
Speaker 2: By the way, if you're like, I'll give you a

1119
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 2: second to pause, because if you ever have to do

1120
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 2: this and take because like longer than three days it's

1121
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,880
Speaker 2: Family Medical Leave Act kicks and then they tapp in

1122
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 2: your sick days that way. So I came back this morning,

1123
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 2: and I should have came come in like three hours earlier,

1124
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 2: because just to log back into email and get back

1125
00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:56,560
Speaker 2: like online in this monitor, it's a whole thing. It's

1126
00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 2: like a whole thing out on maternity leak. I was

1127
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 2: gone non back.

1128
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 8: So okay, Well, while you were gone, I realized I

1129
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 8: have a tattoo because of one man in Cincinnati.

1130
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 2: Your tattoo lists up to this point, well, virgin skin.

1131
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,040
Speaker 8: The only one I have is because of this one

1132
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 8: man in Cincinnati. Give me a hot second. We'll get there.

1133
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 8: We have things to debrief. Obviously, you saw the Super

1134
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 8: Bowl halftime announcement.

1135
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 2: We have to talk about that.

1136
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:26,760
Speaker 8: Talk about Taylor Swift, the biggest thing on the internet,

1137
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 8: maybe a little Cardi B and maybe one or two

1138
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 8: other things. So I realized this yesterday that I have

1139
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,719
Speaker 8: a tattoo, the only one I've ever gotten, and if

1140
00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 8: the invisible string theory exists, it has nothing to do

1141
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 8: with romance in my life apparently, and has everything to

1142
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:49,239
Speaker 8: do with the Cincinnati Reds. Okay, after it didn't go

1143
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 8: well for us, last night, but I think we're gonna

1144
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,080
Speaker 8: be patient with Tito.

1145
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I can't believe you got a twenty

1146
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:58,839
Speaker 2: twenty five world champion. Maybe premature.

1147
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,719
Speaker 8: No, this happened actually back in two thousand and eight,

1148
00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 8: when I turned eighteen, after the Red Sox won the

1149
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 8: World Series, I got a matching tattoo with my best

1150
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:11,440
Speaker 8: friend for the Red Sox.

1151
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 7: Do you know who managed the club at that time?

1152
00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 8: Jerry Franco exactly came back around, started managing the Reds,

1153
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 8: took them to the playoffs in.

1154
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:19,839
Speaker 2: Their first year.

1155
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 8: And who knew back when I was eighteen, I'm now

1156
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 8: thirty five. I got a tattoo that would eventually, in

1157
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:26,919
Speaker 8: some weird way.

1158
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 7: Time you back to Cincinnati.

1159
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 2: Oh cool, I thought you didn't have to to. I

1160
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 2: thought you said you had not to.

1161
00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 8: You just it's on my foot, and I'm not like

1162
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,760
Speaker 8: Rick Uchino, where I'll wear a funk sandal in public.

1163
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:42,920
Speaker 2: I think there's a shot I can hear your little

1164
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 2: scooter rolling around in the background. It really does.

1165
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 6: So.

1166
00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:50,319
Speaker 8: Unfortunately, we took the l yesterday a little bummed about that.

1167
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 8: I'm sure a lot of Cincinnatians wear that scar. It

1168
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:54,720
Speaker 8: just keeps us the wound that keeps opening.

1169
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 2: Do you watch lesson last night? I know what's I

1170
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,319
Speaker 2: know your schedule. I know you get it to eight now.

1171
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:02,759
Speaker 7: I don't even have cable to watch.

1172
00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:03,480
Speaker 2: Oh right.

1173
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 8: What I do love about this, and I know we're

1174
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 8: forward thinking to opening day, is that we open against

1175
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 8: the Red Sox.

1176
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:10,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, so that'd be pretty Coqel.

1177
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 2: Twenty six, I think of March believe. Yeah, okay, let's

1178
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 2: talk about it.

1179
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 8: I am excited that Bad Bunny is doing the Super

1180
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 8: Bowl halftime show.

1181
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 2: Per usual, I got it so wrong. Was on your

1182
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 2: list at all?

1183
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 8: Not even not even in the nowhere in the alphabet.

1184
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 2: I have never seen a streak of someone Quite honestly,

1185
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 2: is this young lady here, my good friend Tiff Potter

1186
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 2: is incorrectly guessing who is going to be even the

1187
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,720
Speaker 2: shortly give me five artists, not even anywhere near it.

1188
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 2: Bad Bunny would not be on it. No, I didn't

1189
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:41,479
Speaker 2: even think of that.

1190
00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:47,800
Speaker 8: I am per usual. Every decision comes with backlash. But overall,

1191
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 8: if you were entertained, not if you liked, but if

1192
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:55,200
Speaker 8: you were entertained by Kendall Lamar in any way, then

1193
00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:58,720
Speaker 8: you will most certainly be entertained by Bad Bunny because

1194
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 8: he is just he's good like that. His shows are

1195
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:06,600
Speaker 8: super energetic, so I have a feeling it'll be extremely entertaining.

1196
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 7: Will you understand all of it? No?

1197
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 8: And I thought that was a bold choice by jay Z.

1198
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,000
Speaker 8: But you know, so far in the last couple of

1199
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 8: years since he took over, we had Rihanna, Usher Kendrick

1200
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:19,040
Speaker 8: and now bad Money with Apple.

1201
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:21,520
Speaker 2: What is the reaction, Ben you said some of it

1202
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 2: not good. As far as what catalog the fact that

1203
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 2: he's I think it's just do do people know him?

1204
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 8: And will they? Will they know the lyrics? Will they

1205
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 8: know the words? Just about everything he does is in Spanish.

1206
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 2: I did like.

1207
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 8: Puerto Rican So sorry if I forgot to mention that

1208
00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:41,960
Speaker 8: here he is after jay Z called him and made

1209
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 8: the announcement. Cool cool, Cool, Still doing the update on

1210
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 8: the computer. I'll work on that. But in the meantime,

1211
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:51,440
Speaker 8: sing it.

1212
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:56,560
Speaker 2: Not quite Other.

1213
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:59,680
Speaker 8: Big things that happened while you were away and is

1214
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,479
Speaker 8: kind of bleeding into today. We are just hours away

1215
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 8: from a brand new Taylor Swift album and she is

1216
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 8: putting out her album tonight at midnight. Kiss one oh

1217
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 8: seven one has kind of been your home and your.

1218
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 4: Go to it's.

1219
00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 2: It is so annoying the world's number one audio company.

1220
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 2: Just want to point that out. No, this is a

1221
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:25,920
Speaker 2: user era. It has nothing to do with their company.

1222
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,080
Speaker 8: It's all because I haven't used this computer since you've

1223
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 8: been gone, and it needed to update four hundred and

1224
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,360
Speaker 8: seventy five things right before we went on there.

1225
00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 2: Because you know what, it's just easy to throw the

1226
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:38,760
Speaker 2: man under the bus. You take the bullet. I'm taking

1227
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 2: the bullet on this, but it's my fault.

1228
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:42,320
Speaker 8: So album comes out Life of a show Girl tonight

1229
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:46,280
Speaker 8: at midnight if you are a in person person. At

1230
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 8: seven am this morning, we kicked off our partnership with

1231
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 8: Kiss and high Ball Sincy, which is a bar right

1232
00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 8: around the corner from Finley Market, we're playing every album

1233
00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:55,720
Speaker 8: back to back to back, leading all the way up

1234
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 8: to Life of a show Girl tonight at midnight. If

1235
00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:00,440
Speaker 8: you're like not for me, I I don't want to

1236
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 8: be in person. iHeartRadio and Kiss. One oh seven one

1237
01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:06,360
Speaker 8: are going to have exclusive content from Taylor. She's taking

1238
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 8: over our radio station tonight and she'll go through the album.

1239
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 2: Track by track. We'll talk about it.

1240
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 8: So I think that this is going to be the

1241
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 8: biggest thing for the next probably week.

1242
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 7: I know it's my super.

1243
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 8: Bowl on my show and my radio station, and so

1244
01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 8: therefore it will eventually bleed over to yours well.

1245
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 2: As a position to sit on my ass and soak

1246
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:26,360
Speaker 2: in entertainment, because like I do right now, I will

1247
01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 2: say that she has dominated that that sphere for sure,

1248
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 2: at least in my opinion. And I saw a little

1249
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:33,920
Speaker 2: promo for her album where she's dressed as a showgirl

1250
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 2: and comes out over with a poster and like trips

1251
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:38,720
Speaker 2: over them the lamplote, which I thought with Madie giggle

1252
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 2: because I love that self deprecating kind of you know,

1253
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 2: she's really good at that she is, and Life of

1254
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:47,480
Speaker 2: a Showgirl is the title of the album. If I

1255
01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:49,320
Speaker 2: forgot to mention, she's dress as a show girl with

1256
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 2: a poster of her and then trips over a thing

1257
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 2: and then yeah.

1258
01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 7: Ah my god, this laptop is really bothering me.

1259
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.

1260
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:57,320
Speaker 2: I could have prepared a little bit for this.

1261
01:00:57,760 --> 01:00:59,760
Speaker 7: We are just coming in real hot.

1262
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 2: I did my bid I'm here.

1263
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:06,880
Speaker 8: Well, those are the bigger pop culture moments outside of that.

1264
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:10,680
Speaker 8: Carti B and Nicki Minaj have really started getting into

1265
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 8: it on the internet. Now for the third day, let

1266
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:14,560
Speaker 8: me give you a little bit of a brief history.

1267
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 8: Cardi B's album Am I the Drama came out last

1268
01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 8: Friday because she has been taken over, might have been

1269
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 8: even the Friday before that.

1270
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 7: She's been taking over the last week or two.

1271
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 8: Nicki Minaj and her haven't gotten along in several years.

1272
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 8: And I think it's really because Nicki just likes to

1273
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 8: think that she is the queen of New York, the

1274
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 8: queen of the New York rapt scene. She thinks that

1275
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:41,800
Speaker 8: Cardi B should bow down to her. Cardi B comes along.

1276
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:44,280
Speaker 8: At first they tried to be friends, then things down

1277
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:48,080
Speaker 8: the line ended up shifting, and then really ever since then, Nicki.

1278
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:49,240
Speaker 2: Has had a lot to say about Carti.

1279
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 8: Carti I think has the upper hand in this kind

1280
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,960
Speaker 8: of battle at the moment, because Nicki keeps bringing in

1281
01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 8: the kids and started saying things on Twitter that I

1282
01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 8: probably can can't even read out loud on this radio,

1283
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 8: probably don't want to get fired on our first day

1284
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 8: back together. So it finally got to the point where

1285
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 8: Carti had said, listen, like drop the address, like I'll

1286
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:13,080
Speaker 8: come and show up wherever you are. She also had

1287
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:15,920
Speaker 8: made some pretty bold claims about claims about Nicki on

1288
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:20,200
Speaker 8: potentially having bipolar disorders and being addicted to drugs, And

1289
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 8: the only reason why I think there might be some

1290
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,760
Speaker 8: validity to that now, granted, I don't know Nicki Minaj's

1291
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,439
Speaker 8: medical history, and I almost feel a little ridiculous talking

1292
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,640
Speaker 8: about a rap beef on seven hundred wow, but it

1293
01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,000
Speaker 8: really is very big on the internet, and you.

1294
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 2: Might scroll past it, and I want to make sure

1295
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 2: you're in the living, big part of hip hop for

1296
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 2: a long time. You have that right.

1297
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:41,000
Speaker 8: There's always beef right, and that's why I'm not surprised

1298
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 8: that her and Nicki go back and forth.

1299
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,840
Speaker 2: It is what it is, that's our culture. So the

1300
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 2: only reason I think.

1301
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 8: There might be some validity to the mental health things

1302
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 8: that Carti said about Niki is because sometimes Nicki does

1303
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 8: come off as a little on the like unhinged side,

1304
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 8: like why are we even talking.

1305
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 2: About this right now?

1306
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,320
Speaker 8: But again, I'm not naive to think that it isn't

1307
01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 8: just all a part of the game, like no press

1308
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 8: is bad press.

1309
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 2: The thing I think it's I think a lot of

1310
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 2: this is pro wrestling. I think a lot of it

1311
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,080
Speaker 2: is now I don't know when bullets fly, and that's

1312
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:13,840
Speaker 2: you know that kind that's a different story entirely when

1313
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 2: there's actually, you know, someone dies, different stories.

1314
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,880
Speaker 8: I don't think it would come to so Carti is

1315
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:22,160
Speaker 8: gonna be in Sincy one time, but potentially two. So

1316
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:26,440
Speaker 8: her tour comes to heritage in March. And she also

1317
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,320
Speaker 8: is dating Stephan Diggs. Now, who does Stephan Diggs play

1318
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 8: for Patriots? Patriots come here on the weekend of Thanksgiving? Yes,

1319
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:37,800
Speaker 8: so we could see maybe Carti could see Cardi here twice.

1320
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:38,920
Speaker 2: Why would she she would come here?

1321
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,280
Speaker 8: I think she wants to support Steph on she's pregnant

1322
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:43,360
Speaker 8: with her fourth child.

1323
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it says, so we'll see what comes to that.

1324
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 2: That's awesome. Shall we check to see if my laptop works.

1325
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:58,840
Speaker 2: Let's see, let's see maybe maybe by Tuesday, we'll see.

1326
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:01,440
Speaker 2: There's all the way is always Tuesday.

1327
01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 7: There's always that.

1328
01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:05,120
Speaker 8: What I think that those are the big things, Cardi happened.

1329
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 8: I thought of you during the super Bowl halftime announcement.

1330
01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 8: Taylor's coming out tonight. I have a tattoo back to

1331
01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:12,439
Speaker 8: the super Bowl.

1332
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 2: Do you think there's gonna because I think a lot

1333
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,800
Speaker 2: of people don't you know older like myself. I know,

1334
01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 2: I think probably would recognize a couple of the songs,

1335
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:22,080
Speaker 2: but I can't say I'm a bad bunny expert. I

1336
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 2: know he's Puerto Rican, but I wonder how much of

1337
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,320
Speaker 2: a backlash there's going to be with that element because

1338
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:28,800
Speaker 2: all those songs are in Spanish. With an American sport

1339
01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,520
Speaker 2: like football. Now, the NFL has made tremendous ord's trying

1340
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:34,440
Speaker 2: to grow market share by having games in Dublin and

1341
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 2: in London and of course in South America. That's part

1342
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 2: of this. If you found football all, you know this

1343
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 2: can't possibly be surprised as they tried to expand.

1344
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 7: That was my question for you.

1345
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:47,640
Speaker 8: Do you think that this is a little bit more

1346
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:49,640
Speaker 8: of let's say, a power.

1347
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:53,120
Speaker 2: Play by the NFL than it is anything else. I

1348
01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:53,880
Speaker 2: turned it off.

1349
01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:56,120
Speaker 7: It just keeps updating.

1350
01:04:56,880 --> 01:04:59,560
Speaker 2: No, I think they're trying to expand to younger audiences,

1351
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:01,280
Speaker 2: and I think you're older and you're offended by this

1352
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:03,280
Speaker 2: and want to see, you know, I don't know, Bruce

1353
01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:06,400
Speaker 2: Springsteen again or something like that. You're probably not going

1354
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:09,120
Speaker 2: anytime soon because the money is in the younger demos,

1355
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,480
Speaker 2: it's in gen z R audience. Isn't like even I

1356
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:16,160
Speaker 2: would say, certainly. I don't want to discount you millennials,

1357
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:18,640
Speaker 2: but I think it's about building a base with gen zers.

1358
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,680
Speaker 2: And look at the flag football thing. It's interesting. They

1359
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 2: really lean the flag football so they can get more

1360
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 2: younger people, kids, young women to play and get invested

1361
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 2: in the game of football, so they become customers in

1362
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:29,440
Speaker 2: the future. That's what this is all about.

1363
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,400
Speaker 8: I think you make a great point. I do want

1364
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:32,960
Speaker 8: to squeeze one or two more things in if we.

1365
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:33,320
Speaker 7: Have the time.

1366
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:34,680
Speaker 2: Do you have the sound for it? The audio?

1367
01:05:34,760 --> 01:05:34,920
Speaker 5: I do?

1368
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:35,640
Speaker 2: Well, let's see.

1369
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:42,240
Speaker 8: Let's see world famous Jane Goodall, Oh yeah, passed away

1370
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 8: yesterday at the age of ninety one.

1371
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,919
Speaker 2: That woman was working literally up until her death.

1372
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:49,320
Speaker 8: She was on tour for her book that came out

1373
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 8: in twenty twenty one, and she had passed passed away

1374
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,400
Speaker 8: while out on the tour. I guess of natural causes,

1375
01:05:56,720 --> 01:06:01,000
Speaker 8: and let's see if this works. Nope, still doesn't work.

1376
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:03,640
Speaker 2: That is one big gorilla.

1377
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 8: She was one of only eight people to be able

1378
01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:09,960
Speaker 8: to get a degree or a doctorate without having a

1379
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:11,840
Speaker 8: college degree. And I don't know how that works, but

1380
01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 8: I read that this morning the honorary then right, no, no, no,

1381
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 8: this is legitimate, Jeane Girdlea. You just get to skip ahead.

1382
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,800
Speaker 2: You don't have to take biology one oh one, you

1383
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 2: don't have to take intro to psychology.

1384
01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 8: I think it's because the woman literally lived in the

1385
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,680
Speaker 8: woods with the monkeys on her own. I had seen

1386
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 8: a little bit of her documentary on Hulu. I recommend it.

1387
01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:33,080
Speaker 8: I don't think I ever finished it, but I remember

1388
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 8: being super intrigued by it. The woman was out in

1389
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 8: the jungle on her own when she was in her twenties.

1390
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 2: Didn't get her head ripped off or nothing. So some

1391
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:43,840
Speaker 2: of these people are like, oh, they're just like us,

1392
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:47,280
Speaker 2: wind up dying horrific death because the animals don't think

1393
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 2: that we're like them. They think they'll Loogan eventually go,

1394
01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:51,240
Speaker 2: you know what, this guy's pissing me off. I'm gonna

1395
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:57,919
Speaker 2: eat them, Jane, any primate, right, she really became one

1396
01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:01,000
Speaker 2: of the chimpanzees, and I think her research want it

1397
01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:04,880
Speaker 2: was known for just understanding them and then stopping the

1398
01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:08,560
Speaker 2: use of the of chimpanzees for science, for entertainment and

1399
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:10,439
Speaker 2: stuff like that. Ninety one though, that's a good long

1400
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:13,320
Speaker 2: life for someone who's but good. And there's somebody to

1401
01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:15,720
Speaker 2: be said about that too. Is we age? And you

1402
01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:17,480
Speaker 2: know when you retire and quit, there's some people at

1403
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 2: work and they just that's ther whole purpose in life,

1404
01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 2: and they just keep on going. She's one of those.

1405
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 7: Yeah good.

1406
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:25,720
Speaker 8: I have never felt like a segment dragged on for

1407
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 8: so long in my life.

1408
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,000
Speaker 2: And keep waiting for your computer to wow.

1409
01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 7: Like, I can't believe it.

1410
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,800
Speaker 8: We've gone three weeks without talking, and I'm like, how

1411
01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:33,840
Speaker 8: do I do this job?

1412
01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:36,960
Speaker 2: What's the wrong with that? Between my foot and your

1413
01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:38,480
Speaker 2: mystery tattoo?

1414
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,960
Speaker 8: Oh my god, wait until you hear I'm about to

1415
01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 8: book a forty five hundred dollars flight for someone that

1416
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:46,920
Speaker 8: I'm dating four thousand.

1417
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 2: I was going to think that the tattoo would have

1418
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:53,040
Speaker 2: been of this person, not Oh come on, you know me.

1419
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:56,439
Speaker 2: I know you, so you get but sometimes you get

1420
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:58,400
Speaker 2: invested in something and you push all those chips in

1421
01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 2: the middle of the table. You know, don't read the room.

1422
01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 2: We commit, we go hard. Don't read the room. She's

1423
01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:05,960
Speaker 2: Tip Potter kiss one of seven one mornings, and she

1424
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 2: pops in Tuesday Thursdays with three things at the top

1425
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:10,360
Speaker 2: of thet all right, appreciate you. Good to be back

1426
01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:13,200
Speaker 2: when you get a news update in and when we return.

1427
01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:16,880
Speaker 2: Speaking of those red legs, what's next after there? Should

1428
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:19,360
Speaker 2: I don't think stunning is the right word. I would

1429
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:22,400
Speaker 2: say the sobering wake up call of what big payroll

1430
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:24,680
Speaker 2: teams are going to do to you doesn't mean you

1431
01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:26,639
Speaker 2: can't get it done. Look at the Milwaukee Brewers, but

1432
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:28,640
Speaker 2: Red's got some work to do. The offseason chat with

1433
01:08:28,760 --> 01:08:32,479
Speaker 2: Jeff Cup from Lockdown. Reds just ahead on seven hundred WW.

1434
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:36,920
Speaker 2: Since then, do you want to slow me back on

1435
01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 2: seven hundred WW? That's what I said back on seven

1436
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:43,879
Speaker 2: hundred W dow Barring some ankle surgery, severed ten completely

1437
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 2: ruptured tendon that I'm dealing with, but you know what,

1438
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 2: that can be repaired. That can be Can the Reds

1439
01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,680
Speaker 2: be repaired? That's the question now. Sunday we had champagne.

1440
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:57,599
Speaker 2: The hangover lasted till Wednesday, then sobriety hit last night.

1441
01:08:57,640 --> 01:08:59,080
Speaker 2: He looked in the mirror and go, what the hell

1442
01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 2: did I do when I was drinking champagne? Eight to

1443
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:04,760
Speaker 2: four last night the final despite two early runs, they

1444
01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:10,360
Speaker 2: couldn't compete. The Cockerroaches have been exterminated outscore eighteen to nine,

1445
01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:15,400
Speaker 2: and the longest drought in professional sports continues. The agony

1446
01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,000
Speaker 2: of the Reds not advancing is going to be known

1447
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,519
Speaker 2: at least another year on it As our buddy from Lockdown,

1448
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:23,000
Speaker 2: Red's the only daily Reds podcast, that'd be Jeff Carr.

1449
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:24,920
Speaker 2: He's gonna have a lot to talk about in the

1450
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 2: offseason starting today, Jeffrey, Welcome, Hi you Ben Sony. It's

1451
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:30,679
Speaker 2: been a wild ride.

1452
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:35,200
Speaker 4: Like you mentioned, it felt like celebration turned to reality far,

1453
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:38,320
Speaker 4: far too quick. But that's been the reality of Red's

1454
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,920
Speaker 4: postseason baseball in the recent history.

1455
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:43,960
Speaker 2: I know I'll be a little bit more optimistic probably here.

1456
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 2: I know that you look around the wrestling game and

1457
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 2: watching day baseball on the IR as I was watching

1458
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 2: Detroit in Cleveland. They're going to play a game three today.

1459
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,360
Speaker 2: San Diego's at Chicago and the Cubbies. Hopefully we're gon

1460
01:09:57,360 --> 01:09:59,360
Speaker 2: limit the Cubbies here San Diego and then Boston. New

1461
01:09:59,439 --> 01:10:01,840
Speaker 2: York was great game last night and he thought, well,

1462
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:04,880
Speaker 2: can they go four for four? Can all four wild

1463
01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 2: card games advanced to a pivotal Game three? And the

1464
01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:11,160
Speaker 2: answer was no. The Reds let us down. If any

1465
01:10:11,160 --> 01:10:14,320
Speaker 2: of those teams they'll face the Dodgers instead of US.

1466
01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:17,800
Speaker 2: I think that the Dodgers probably beat a lot of

1467
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:20,599
Speaker 2: those teams, if not almost all those teams saved maybe

1468
01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe New York or Boston. I think

1469
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 2: they could beat Cleveland. I think they could be Detroit.

1470
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:29,639
Speaker 2: I think they could probably beat Chicago. It just happens

1471
01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:33,720
Speaker 2: we drew the Dodgers. That starting pitching is going to

1472
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 2: be so hard for anybody to be there. I mean,

1473
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:39,120
Speaker 2: the way that Yamamoto and Blake Snell were both dealing,

1474
01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 2: didn't feel like there was a whole lot of lineups

1475
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:44,439
Speaker 2: that could really hang with them. It's just the pitching

1476
01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:46,800
Speaker 2: side of things for the Reds ended up letting them down,

1477
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:52,080
Speaker 2: which was the big twist that we were all not expecting.

1478
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:52,360
Speaker 4: In this story.

1479
01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 2: But I agree with you.

1480
01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 4: I think the Dodgers pitching really was the impressive part

1481
01:10:57,120 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 4: of this. Their lineup did what we all expected it today.

1482
01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:03,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, and they absolutely mowed him down. And then

1483
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:05,120
Speaker 2: you look at the Dodgers and you watch how they played,

1484
01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:06,559
Speaker 2: going all, how the hell could they be in the

1485
01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:09,679
Speaker 2: wild the wild guard? How is that possible?

1486
01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:14,200
Speaker 4: There's a reason, especially they're in the wildcard, right, right,

1487
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,639
Speaker 4: It's just I mean, Philly and Milwaukee had great seasons.

1488
01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:20,880
Speaker 4: It's interesting because going into the year, the Dodgers over

1489
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:22,640
Speaker 4: under win total was at one hundred and three and

1490
01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,680
Speaker 4: a half, so based on that, they really underachieved at

1491
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:28,439
Speaker 4: ninety three. But boy, ninety three looks a lot better

1492
01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:30,320
Speaker 4: than eighty three if you're looking from the Reds point

1493
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:30,639
Speaker 4: of view.

1494
01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:34,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question. The criticism was fast and furious, and

1495
01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:37,920
Speaker 2: that started with Tel getting the start. They worked Lodola

1496
01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:39,160
Speaker 2: out of the pen. I don't think he had like

1497
01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:42,599
Speaker 2: a dozen pitches maybe, And the question mark is, well,

1498
01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:45,160
Speaker 2: why are we saving Andrew Abbott for today? There is

1499
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:45,759
Speaker 2: no today?

1500
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:50,599
Speaker 4: Right, I mean I didn't understand. I know that there

1501
01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 4: was a little bit of a discussion about short rest

1502
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 4: and things like that, but in a short playoff series.

1503
01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:59,400
Speaker 4: We talked many times this year about the fact that

1504
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:03,000
Speaker 4: with Green, Lodolo and Abbot you feel really confident going

1505
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:07,680
Speaker 4: up against anybody. Well, in this series Green got was

1506
01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:10,719
Speaker 4: tipping pitches or something like that and got a little

1507
01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:14,799
Speaker 4: bit blinded by the like Nickelodolo threw fourteen total pitches

1508
01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:17,519
Speaker 4: and Andrew Rabbit threw zero of them. Those are the

1509
01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:20,799
Speaker 4: three guys that you were expecting to be a huge

1510
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:24,559
Speaker 4: reason why the Reds could compete with anybody, and quite frankly,

1511
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:28,719
Speaker 4: they were three of the least important players in this series,

1512
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:30,479
Speaker 4: or at least you know, Green was one of the

1513
01:12:30,479 --> 01:12:33,639
Speaker 4: most important as far as negatively, and then Nickelodolo and

1514
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:35,800
Speaker 4: Andrew Rabbit were next to Superpluis.

1515
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:38,000
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you don't know what you're getting on Lego.

1516
01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I was as shocked as anybody that Hunter

1517
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 2: Green had the outing that he did in Game one. Yeah.

1518
01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:46,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he turned back the clock, but not in a

1519
01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:48,960
Speaker 4: great way. And I think it was immediately whenever he

1520
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:51,920
Speaker 4: gave up the home run to Otani, he stopped being

1521
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:54,160
Speaker 4: a pitcher and he went back to being a thrower.

1522
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,560
Speaker 4: And I think that's probably why, you know, Busseroni was

1523
01:12:57,560 --> 01:12:59,880
Speaker 4: talking about he was tipping his pitches and all the

1524
01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:03,679
Speaker 4: other stuff. But quite frankly, us Reds fans know what

1525
01:13:03,800 --> 01:13:06,559
Speaker 4: Hunter Green looks like when he's pitching versus what he's

1526
01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:09,719
Speaker 4: looks like when he's throwing. I mean, he wasn't able

1527
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:11,880
Speaker 4: to use the splitter. He tried to throw it a

1528
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:13,759
Speaker 4: couple of times, and he spiked it in the ground

1529
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:17,200
Speaker 4: and his slider was not landing for strikes. It was

1530
01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,840
Speaker 4: starting on the plate and breaking off the plate, so

1531
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:22,360
Speaker 4: Dodger sitters knew they could lay off of it. And

1532
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,320
Speaker 4: then whenever he would go to throw his fastball, it

1533
01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:26,760
Speaker 4: just caught way too much of the plate. And so

1534
01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 4: that was watching old Hunter Green pitch again. I think

1535
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:33,519
Speaker 4: part of it was it's like, man, this is his

1536
01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 4: first playoff start, and then they add all of this

1537
01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:39,679
Speaker 4: other stuff onto it. Oh, you know, hometown kid. He's

1538
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:42,720
Speaker 4: coming back home faced the team he watched growing up,

1539
01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:45,920
Speaker 4: and all this other stuff, and I think just everything

1540
01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,400
Speaker 4: just caught up to him the moment that show Heyo

1541
01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:50,000
Speaker 4: Tani hit that ball to the movie.

1542
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:52,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hunter Green was obviously a lock in Game one,

1543
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:56,120
Speaker 2: but Lodolo come out of the pen for a limited appearance,

1544
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 2: and then Abbott waited till today. He was going to

1545
01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:00,959
Speaker 2: throw him today and there was no today. There's only yesterday.

1546
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 2: Did Tito explain that zach ly telstar.

1547
01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:09,240
Speaker 4: I didn't hear like specifically. I think they cited the

1548
01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:11,920
Speaker 4: short rest for Andrew Rabbit, but I didn't hear like

1549
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:16,479
Speaker 4: specifically why it was the Tel But I just find

1550
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:21,200
Speaker 4: it so weird funny, especially the short outing for Nickolodolo. Okay,

1551
01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:24,400
Speaker 4: if he throws in relief on Sunday and you want

1552
01:14:24,439 --> 01:14:27,200
Speaker 4: to keep him in that role for some reason, fine,

1553
01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,599
Speaker 4: but throw him for at least two any at least

1554
01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:32,000
Speaker 4: two or three innies. He could totally do that.

1555
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:35,840
Speaker 2: All right. So the Reds limp home and a lot

1556
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:37,800
Speaker 2: of soul searching can be done the offseason. And for

1557
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 2: those who are like, okay, well here we go again.

1558
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:41,439
Speaker 2: You know, Burrow goes down in the injury, the Bengals

1559
01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:43,679
Speaker 2: are done. How many days till opening day? The Reds

1560
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:45,800
Speaker 2: disappointed they get the only team in the wild card.

1561
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:48,680
Speaker 2: He gets swept as our Cincinnati Reds. The misery continues

1562
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:52,759
Speaker 2: for another year. Haven't even tasted the postseason. Postseason success

1563
01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,720
Speaker 2: at this point. Keep in mind, and you mentioned Hunter Green,

1564
01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,120
Speaker 2: very young roster, A lot of guys have not seen

1565
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:02,080
Speaker 2: postseason play, and a lot of those guys, wilted I

1566
01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:04,160
Speaker 2: thought it was surprising to show that contrast, as a

1567
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:06,080
Speaker 2: guy like Hunter Green thought, man, he's gonna go out

1568
01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:08,439
Speaker 2: there and just dominate. He did not, could barely get

1569
01:15:08,439 --> 01:15:11,360
Speaker 2: out of the first inning. It is a guy in

1570
01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 2: Matt McClain whose defense has been spectacular all season. His

1571
01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,320
Speaker 2: bat has been absent for most of the season, been

1572
01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,040
Speaker 2: terrible at the plate. Had it not been for his glove,

1573
01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaker 2: he would have been sent back down, I would think,

1574
01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:24,000
Speaker 2: or at least at least benched at the very least.

1575
01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 2: And yet he comes out and he smokes a double.

1576
01:15:26,320 --> 01:15:27,720
Speaker 2: When is the last time he got a hit, let

1577
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,760
Speaker 2: alone a double. He played pretty well, So you know,

1578
01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:33,519
Speaker 2: it's about getting those experience, those moments of experience, I

1579
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:36,280
Speaker 2: think in the postseason, Jeff, and then of course we'll

1580
01:15:36,320 --> 01:15:38,320
Speaker 2: talk about this in a minute, that's him adding some pieces.

1581
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:41,680
Speaker 2: But the I think the youngness of this team, the

1582
01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:43,080
Speaker 2: youth of this club really showed up.

1583
01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:46,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, if there's anything that I can glean from the

1584
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:48,439
Speaker 4: fact that they just kind of.

1585
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,840
Speaker 2: Got dog walked by the Dodgers.

1586
01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:54,360
Speaker 4: That now they can at least draw from this experience.

1587
01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:56,680
Speaker 4: They showed up and they did the thing. You know,

1588
01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:58,920
Speaker 4: everybody was saying they don't believe in him and all

1589
01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:02,599
Speaker 4: this other stuff, and they showed why nobody believed them

1590
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:04,559
Speaker 4: because they got ran over by the Dodgers. And I

1591
01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:07,320
Speaker 4: think that that's actually going to be a positive. They're

1592
01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,160
Speaker 4: going to get to a point next year where maybe

1593
01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:13,000
Speaker 4: they hit some struggles and they can draw back on

1594
01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:15,599
Speaker 4: this season where you know, the whole cockroaches thing, which

1595
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:17,920
Speaker 4: quite frankly, I'm kind of glad that's done.

1596
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,680
Speaker 2: Let's do something else next year. I don't love that Moniker.

1597
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:22,479
Speaker 6: But I get it.

1598
01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:26,599
Speaker 2: I understand it's thirty. It's dirty, I suppose, but okay,

1599
01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:28,599
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it took the Mets to screw

1600
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:31,080
Speaker 2: things up for you to get in. It's not like, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1601
01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,679
Speaker 2: I know what's in Milwaukee. But it's not like Milwaukee

1602
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:36,760
Speaker 2: is playing all their starters anyway. They're resting up for

1603
01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:39,920
Speaker 2: a long playoff run. So you know, way, whatever helps

1604
01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:43,240
Speaker 2: you get up the next day and get motivated, that's fine, right.

1605
01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:45,559
Speaker 4: But the good news is they can draw on this

1606
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:49,680
Speaker 4: experience for next year, and because they know that playoffs

1607
01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:52,639
Speaker 4: baseball sounds different. But you know, once you get into

1608
01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:55,840
Speaker 4: inning two, inning three, inning four, there's still three outs,

1609
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:58,840
Speaker 4: there's still three strikes, there's still four balls, and there's

1610
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:01,280
Speaker 4: still twenty seven ounces. You got to get on the opponent.

1611
01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 4: And at the end of the day, it's the same

1612
01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:05,320
Speaker 4: baseball game you've been playing all your life. And I

1613
01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:08,080
Speaker 4: think that that, more than anything, is going to be

1614
01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:12,200
Speaker 4: such a huge, a huge lesson for this team moving

1615
01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:14,720
Speaker 4: into an offseason that you know, they should be full

1616
01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:17,559
Speaker 4: of lessons based on what's happened this year and different

1617
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:21,000
Speaker 4: things that they need to answer before twenty twenty six

1618
01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:21,519
Speaker 4: gets going.

1619
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 2: All right, how much of this then is going to

1620
01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:26,520
Speaker 2: be turned towards the front office and this offseason Terry Francona,

1621
01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 2: despite the criticism about Zach Lettel, despite some of the

1622
01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 2: criticisms done, like, as a Hall of Fame manager, you

1623
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,600
Speaker 2: can't get better than Terry Francona. He got you to

1624
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:37,439
Speaker 2: the postseason, something the Reds haven't tasted a long time.

1625
01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:40,880
Speaker 2: At the same time, now the front office has to

1626
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:43,320
Speaker 2: give an ownership has to give Terry Francona something to

1627
01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 2: play with. You know, a lot is made about payrolls,

1628
01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:48,120
Speaker 2: and we've always heard about is a three hundred and

1629
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:53,080
Speaker 2: fifty million dollar Dodger payroll, Dodger payroll, this huge Dodger peril. Meanwhile,

1630
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:56,439
Speaker 2: they're also a wildcard team. So how much of the

1631
01:17:56,600 --> 01:18:00,000
Speaker 2: cry about payroll disparity and that we're among the lowest

1632
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:03,760
Speaker 2: MLBA is really relevant in this case? How much of

1633
01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:05,040
Speaker 2: that do you weigh on payroll?

1634
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:09,000
Speaker 4: This loss I don't put as much as other people do.

1635
01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:11,759
Speaker 4: I mean, think about it too, like the Mets actually

1636
01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 4: technically had a bigger payroll than the Dodgers did, and

1637
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:18,240
Speaker 4: they collapsed entirely and didn't make the playoffs. So I

1638
01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:21,280
Speaker 4: don't think it is, as you know, one for one,

1639
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:25,040
Speaker 4: indicative of success, but I certainly think it would help.

1640
01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 4: At the same point, there were different I saw a

1641
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 4: post that had to do with peers of payroll, and

1642
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:31,880
Speaker 4: the Reds are in the bottom tier, and they've been

1643
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:33,920
Speaker 4: in the bottom tier for a long time. It just

1644
01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:36,640
Speaker 4: feels like if they put a little bit more, not

1645
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:38,519
Speaker 4: saying they got to put one hundred and fifty million

1646
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:40,760
Speaker 4: dollars more, but like just a little bit more, maybe

1647
01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:43,720
Speaker 4: twenty thirty million more into the payroll than what they

1648
01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:46,760
Speaker 4: did this past year, then they will get everything that

1649
01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:49,479
Speaker 4: they need. And I mean, you're talking about twenty four

1650
01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:53,000
Speaker 4: million coming off the books for Nick Martinez. You're talking

1651
01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:54,720
Speaker 4: about a couple of million more for some of the

1652
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:57,639
Speaker 4: other guys that'll be leaving via free agency from the bullpen.

1653
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,920
Speaker 4: Obviously those guys need to be replaced, but it feels

1654
01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:04,439
Speaker 4: like they're going to have somewhere between thirty and thirty

1655
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:08,040
Speaker 4: five million from what they spent this year to spend

1656
01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:12,040
Speaker 4: on free agents and arbitration contracts, and so if they

1657
01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:14,400
Speaker 4: add a little bit more to that, they could really

1658
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:18,080
Speaker 4: go for something here, including you know everyone's favorite son

1659
01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:19,559
Speaker 4: from Middletown, Kylee Shwarber.

1660
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:21,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe there's a college Swarber there. On the other

1661
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:25,719
Speaker 2: high side, a lot was put on someone like Ellie

1662
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:28,120
Speaker 2: de la Cruz. I mean, we heard the story last

1663
01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,720
Speaker 2: night about Rick Stowe giving him number forty four because

1664
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:32,840
Speaker 2: you run out of Eric Davis. I'll tell you what.

1665
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:35,200
Speaker 2: I saw Eric Davis as his prime and you did too.

1666
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:38,080
Speaker 2: Ellie da la Cruz is not quite Eric Davis yet.

1667
01:19:39,280 --> 01:19:42,840
Speaker 4: No he's not. And that was the other part of

1668
01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:46,080
Speaker 4: this Dodgers series that surprised me because it looked like

1669
01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:48,400
Speaker 4: down the stretch he was getting the second wind. That

1670
01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,320
Speaker 4: looked as if he was ready for the big for

1671
01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:54,120
Speaker 4: the big stage here again. And we've seen him play

1672
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,080
Speaker 4: very well against the Dodgers, but the Dodgers have completely

1673
01:19:57,120 --> 01:19:59,840
Speaker 4: shut him down this year. And then the two game

1674
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:03,160
Speaker 4: Wildcard series, really, I mean, he was a non factor.

1675
01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:05,080
Speaker 4: He was on base a couple of times in the

1676
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,559
Speaker 4: first game by a walk and then he had a

1677
01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:10,840
Speaker 4: fielders choice that got an rv I. But that's it.

1678
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:13,840
Speaker 4: Like there was no impactful moment for Elie de la Cruz,

1679
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,360
Speaker 4: especially there in Game two where he comes up in

1680
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 4: the sixth thenning with the bases loaded, and it feels

1681
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:20,760
Speaker 4: like this is a moment where he can make a

1682
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:24,519
Speaker 4: name for himself, and he struck out, and I think

1683
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:26,559
Speaker 4: that there's definitely a lot that he can glean. He's

1684
01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:30,439
Speaker 4: still very early on in his career, but yeah, you're right.

1685
01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:33,600
Speaker 4: I mean he's not there yet. He still remains a

1686
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:36,080
Speaker 4: bunch of potential rather than approven product.

1687
01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:39,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a number of young guys in this roster

1688
01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:41,920
Speaker 2: that that pop out at you, going, well, there's a

1689
01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:43,920
Speaker 2: guy to build round one of those guys. I've been

1690
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,120
Speaker 2: joined to watch the season of Sales Stewart, and I

1691
01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:48,240
Speaker 2: know he took it hard. He took it on himself,

1692
01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:50,519
Speaker 2: saying we lost that game because of my errand throw.

1693
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,240
Speaker 2: But keep in mind he got up in a couple

1694
01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:55,920
Speaker 2: of clutch hits for that matter, and some just smart

1695
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:59,640
Speaker 2: baseball plays. I like Sales Stewart a lot, and I

1696
01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:01,760
Speaker 2: look at him and go, Okay, there's a guy that's

1697
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:03,200
Speaker 2: going to be a cornerstone for a while.

1698
01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like there might be a dozen things

1699
01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:07,960
Speaker 4: that open on the list before I get to South

1700
01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:11,360
Speaker 4: Stewart for that game last night. I do really like

1701
01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:13,360
Speaker 4: what he brings to the table. He's got so much

1702
01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:15,519
Speaker 4: confidence when he steps into the box. I mean, you

1703
01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:19,400
Speaker 4: saw it. Yamamoto was just mowing people down, but every

1704
01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:22,519
Speaker 4: time salth Stewart stepped in it was very good at back.

1705
01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 4: It did strike out once, but a couple of very

1706
01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:28,280
Speaker 4: impactful hits in this game. And I really like what

1707
01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:30,439
Speaker 4: sal brings to this team. I mean, he got caught

1708
01:21:30,520 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 4: up in the beginning of September and he provided a

1709
01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,360
Speaker 4: couple of homers for him down the stretch. Didn't look like,

1710
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:38,840
Speaker 4: you know, oh hey kid, welcome to the big leagues.

1711
01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 4: By the way, we're in a pennant race, and don't

1712
01:21:40,520 --> 01:21:44,240
Speaker 4: mess anything up here. And he didn't. He looked fantastic,

1713
01:21:44,280 --> 01:21:47,400
Speaker 4: and he's got a great personality to root for too.

1714
01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:50,000
Speaker 4: I just I really hope that they commit to one

1715
01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:52,280
Speaker 4: position with him, because they keep doing this thing where,

1716
01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:55,000
Speaker 4: you know, so they get somebody on the roster and

1717
01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:57,240
Speaker 4: they're like, oh, well he could play anything. It's like, well,

1718
01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 4: give him, give him a position, and I feel like

1719
01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,400
Speaker 4: he looked good at first. He's looked good at third

1720
01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:05,000
Speaker 4: base in his minor league career as well. There's gonna

1721
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:07,599
Speaker 4: be so many options open to this front office this

1722
01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:11,360
Speaker 4: off season because of guys like South Stewart, but they've

1723
01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:13,200
Speaker 4: really got to make sure that they have a plane

1724
01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:16,280
Speaker 4: in place next year and not this current roster that

1725
01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:20,280
Speaker 4: feels like it has a whole bunch of square pegs

1726
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 4: for square holes. But there's only so many holes you

1727
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:24,759
Speaker 4: can fill, and they've got far too many pegs.

1728
01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:27,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love Sales Stewart also because he looks like

1729
01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:30,639
Speaker 2: a lot like a young Al Capone. He's Jeff Carr

1730
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:35,200
Speaker 2: with locked on Reds this morning, wrapping up the red

1731
01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:37,599
Speaker 2: season and not ending the way we hoped or wanted.

1732
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:40,240
Speaker 2: But the reality is you got bum rushed by the

1733
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,240
Speaker 2: La Dodgers, who are a much much better team than

1734
01:22:43,280 --> 01:22:46,240
Speaker 2: their position, and seating would lead you to believior just

1735
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,160
Speaker 2: to look off the street. But I think the Dodgers

1736
01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:51,080
Speaker 2: are gonna they may have a good chance of going

1737
01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:53,400
Speaker 2: from a wild card to World Series back to back

1738
01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:56,320
Speaker 2: champions because they look that damn good. They just continue

1739
01:22:56,360 --> 01:22:58,719
Speaker 2: to come at you with play after play after player,

1740
01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 2: and you know that too. Nothing lead that they had

1741
01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 2: last night early like that, Well, they're going to have

1742
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:05,120
Speaker 2: to probably quadruple that if they got a chance down

1743
01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:08,160
Speaker 2: the stretch, they did not, And long about after what

1744
01:23:08,240 --> 01:23:10,120
Speaker 2: the fourth or fifth inning, they started having to play

1745
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:12,519
Speaker 2: from behind, and that's not a good when you're in

1746
01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:15,640
Speaker 2: the position the Cincinnati Reds are, but got to the postseason.

1747
01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:17,679
Speaker 2: The goal next season is going to go much much

1748
01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 2: deeper in the playoffs. And how much of that is

1749
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:23,040
Speaker 2: retaining some of the core guys you mentioned We're gonna

1750
01:23:23,040 --> 01:23:25,080
Speaker 2: lose some guys in free agency, which all teams do,

1751
01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 2: but also what they add, what do you think happens

1752
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:31,559
Speaker 2: in the next what four and a half five months here?

1753
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:36,320
Speaker 4: I think it really depends on how concrete a position

1754
01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:38,960
Speaker 4: they believe. Elie de la Cruz has a shortstop, If

1755
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:41,320
Speaker 4: they're going to move him to the outfield or something

1756
01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:44,720
Speaker 4: like that, that would open up more opportunities for enfielders.

1757
01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 4: But it feels like this team is full of infielders

1758
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:50,160
Speaker 4: and they've tried to move some to the outfield and

1759
01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 4: it just doesn't necessarily work. And they don't have a

1760
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:55,720
Speaker 4: whole lot of outfielders right now, Like Austin Hayes has

1761
01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:59,760
Speaker 4: a mutual option. I'm not sure how that one's going

1762
01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:01,800
Speaker 4: to go because the season has been sort of up

1763
01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:03,719
Speaker 4: and down for Austin Hey. There's a lot of injuries,

1764
01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:08,200
Speaker 4: some production, but none of it's super consistent, and I

1765
01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:11,040
Speaker 4: don't think that the Reds are going to pick up

1766
01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:14,240
Speaker 4: the mutual side of that option. Then you have Miguel

1767
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:17,679
Speaker 4: Andrewharr who came over here from the A's and he's

1768
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:19,920
Speaker 4: played the outfield a lot in his career. It's just

1769
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:22,360
Speaker 4: he had a leg injury that was limiting him to

1770
01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 4: DH only and so is he going to get healthy

1771
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:27,320
Speaker 4: in this offseason? Do you commit to him playing in

1772
01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:29,280
Speaker 4: the outfield for a little bit, maybe give him a

1773
01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:32,519
Speaker 4: one year proven deal or something like that. There's a

1774
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,799
Speaker 4: lot of interesting options that they currently have in the house.

1775
01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:40,200
Speaker 4: But I also would really and the goal for me

1776
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:44,240
Speaker 4: for Nick Crawl because there is you mentioned this early

1777
01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:47,120
Speaker 4: on when we started talking like how much pressure shifts

1778
01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:49,679
Speaker 4: to the front office. This has to be the most

1779
01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:53,320
Speaker 4: pressure packed off season for Nick Crawl because they just

1780
01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 4: showed that they could do this with the roster that

1781
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,360
Speaker 4: they got, but they don't have enough to go much

1782
01:24:57,400 --> 01:25:00,360
Speaker 4: further than where they got, and they've got to get

1783
01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 4: some help. I think that the first thing he's got

1784
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,519
Speaker 4: to look at is somebody who can be an anchor

1785
01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:07,720
Speaker 4: for this lineup. There was nobody in this lineup at

1786
01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:10,719
Speaker 4: any point this season that was a consistent like when

1787
01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:13,000
Speaker 4: we need a hit, he's going to give it to us,

1788
01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:15,200
Speaker 4: and when we need an RBI, he's going to give

1789
01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:17,800
Speaker 4: it to us. They've got to go find that guy,

1790
01:25:17,880 --> 01:25:20,200
Speaker 4: whether he's an outfielder or a d H or whatever

1791
01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:24,280
Speaker 4: he might be, or whether his name rhymes with Blorber.

1792
01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:31,240
Speaker 4: I think that that was a Borber, But you know,

1793
01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:34,479
Speaker 4: whether that is the option or not, he's got to

1794
01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:37,240
Speaker 4: figure that out because there's definitely some boopen needs that

1795
01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:41,720
Speaker 4: he has, and you could argue that there's definitely some

1796
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,760
Speaker 4: needs there on the bench as well. What is Will

1797
01:25:44,800 --> 01:25:45,960
Speaker 4: Benson to this team?

1798
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:46,759
Speaker 2: Is scie?

1799
01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:48,920
Speaker 4: Are we going to run it back with Santiagos?

1800
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:49,120
Speaker 1: Now?

1801
01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:51,240
Speaker 4: Please don't? I really don't want that to be the

1802
01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:55,000
Speaker 4: answer is yes. But there's so many different answers that

1803
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,760
Speaker 4: Nick Call needs to give. But the first one is

1804
01:25:57,800 --> 01:25:59,679
Speaker 4: who's anchoring this lineup next year?

1805
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,519
Speaker 2: It's a good question. We'll pick it up again. In

1806
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:05,519
Speaker 2: just a few months. Jeff Carr always enjoyed our chats

1807
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:07,479
Speaker 2: on Monday, kind of recap in the weekend, look at

1808
01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:10,600
Speaker 2: a week aheads, and hopefully we'll both be around in

1809
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:12,160
Speaker 2: a few months to be able to do that, Jeff

1810
01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 2: Carr Lockdown ORIDGS only Daily Reads podcast, are gonna have

1811
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,560
Speaker 2: a lot to talk about in the next four or

1812
01:26:16,600 --> 01:26:19,200
Speaker 2: five months, for sure, before things start ramping up out

1813
01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:21,720
Speaker 2: a goodyear and then the twenty twenty sixth version of

1814
01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:25,160
Speaker 2: this team comes to fruition, and I think we have

1815
01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:28,839
Speaker 2: reason to be optimistic and excited. Provide to the front office,

1816
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:31,519
Speaker 2: get some critical pieces in there. Jeff, have a great offseason,

1817
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:33,120
Speaker 2: all the best. I've been appreciating you all these.

1818
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:35,200
Speaker 4: Months, Bunby, appreciate you.

1819
01:26:35,240 --> 01:26:37,160
Speaker 2: Go right, all right, let's get a time out in

1820
01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:39,800
Speaker 2: Sloaney back on seven hundred. The Reds are dead, but

1821
01:26:39,840 --> 01:26:44,720
Speaker 2: I'm alive, apparently barely. Some healthish look get into that

1822
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,840
Speaker 2: coming up too, and how about some news first though,

1823
01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:48,639
Speaker 2: I'm seven hundred.

1824
01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:56,040
Speaker 6: W jeez, the Princess of property, the Queen of closings.

1825
01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:57,759
Speaker 2: But touch us some deals.

1826
01:26:58,880 --> 01:26:59,720
Speaker 1: It's realistic.

1827
01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:05,120
Speaker 6: What's Michelle Sloan all hal the bestest Remax time agent

1828

Speaker 2: into the regular groove. Here we go. What's going on?

1832
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:22,160
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know.

1833
01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:25,680
Speaker 7: We've just spent the last three weeks together. I have

1834
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:26,559
Speaker 7: nothing more.

1835
01:27:26,479 --> 01:27:29,240
Speaker 2: Two weeks in two three days. I don't know, but

1836
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:33,120
Speaker 2: so yeah, hey, you know what, it'll be your turn

1837
01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:35,800
Speaker 2: at some point. Of course, of course, then I got

1838
01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:37,360
Speaker 2: to cart your ass around.

1839
01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:41,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, well we have it is. We have another three

1840
01:27:41,280 --> 01:27:44,479
Speaker 7: weeks of non weight bearing.

1841
01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:48,160
Speaker 2: So anyway, long story short, and it's good to be back.

1842
01:27:48,240 --> 01:27:50,400
Speaker 2: I said's great to be out of the house as

1843
01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:52,320
Speaker 2: someone that used to sitting around as long as I've

1844
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:55,840
Speaker 2: been sitting around. Went in for some ankle surgery. Had

1845
01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:57,400
Speaker 2: a bone that was rubbing on a tendon in my

1846
01:27:57,479 --> 01:27:59,599
Speaker 2: right foot, and it turned out that I've been walking

1847
01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:03,880
Speaker 2: around all summer on a severed tendon. And that was

1848
01:28:03,880 --> 01:28:05,519
Speaker 2: the first news the surgeon told me when I got out.

1849
01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:10,200
Speaker 2: She said, yeah, you severed your tendon completely. Oh okay, so.

1850
01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 7: It was a lot worse thanur.

1851
01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:14,400
Speaker 2: So, yeah, she's in her while sew and everything back

1852
01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:16,240
Speaker 2: together and sewing it to another tendon and stuff.

1853
01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:18,639
Speaker 7: So anyway, yeah, I was sitting in the waiting room.

1854
01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:23,479
Speaker 7: It was supposed to be an hour surgery. After ninety minutes,

1855
01:28:23,920 --> 01:28:29,000
Speaker 7: here we go. I'm like, okay, there's it wasn't really worried, No,

1856
01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:30,120
Speaker 7: I mean it was worse.

1857
01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:34,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean, as I said, you don't people like,

1858
01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:36,639
Speaker 2: oh my god, it must be terrible. Look, there's people

1859
01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:38,479
Speaker 2: with far worse stuff in the world, and I've seen

1860
01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:42,479
Speaker 2: it firsthand, family friends, close friends that and God bless

1861
01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:43,920
Speaker 2: you if you're going through that now. So what I

1862
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:45,880
Speaker 2: had can be fixed. There's a lot of people who

1863
01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:49,120
Speaker 2: don't have a remedy for that. So more prayers to

1864
01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:51,639
Speaker 2: you than to me. So and when the doctor, I'm lucky,

1865
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:52,559
Speaker 2: I can get this fixed.

1866
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,120
Speaker 7: She just she when I met with the doctor before

1867
01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:57,880
Speaker 7: you were out of anesthesia and everything, she just she

1868
01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:01,040
Speaker 7: just put her head down and shook her head with

1869
01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:04,400
Speaker 7: her hand on her head, going, oh my gosh. It

1870
01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:06,280
Speaker 7: was a mess when I got in there.

1871
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:06,719
Speaker 2: Mess.

1872
01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:09,840
Speaker 7: It was an absolute mess. Two inches of the tender.

1873
01:29:09,760 --> 01:29:12,000
Speaker 2: She said, you didn't do feel any pain? What's like,

1874
01:29:12,040 --> 01:29:13,720
Speaker 2: I mean, hurt a little bit. She goes well with

1875
01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:16,599
Speaker 2: a rete, it should have been a lot more painful than.

1876
01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, and your bone spur was three centimeters. I was

1877
01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:21,320
Speaker 7: looking on my hand trying to figure out what three

1878
01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 7: centimeters looks like.

1879
01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:24,240
Speaker 2: I don't roll into the doctor until it's fallen off

1880
01:29:24,280 --> 01:29:24,800
Speaker 2: at this point.

1881
01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:26,720
Speaker 4: What you are?

1882
01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:28,559
Speaker 7: Yeah, exactly right?

1883
01:29:29,439 --> 01:29:32,040
Speaker 2: All right? So yeah, my wife Michelle's driving me around,

1884
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,320
Speaker 2: which is so because she likes to sleep in until

1885
01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:39,439
Speaker 2: the ungodly hour like seven am. I know, and I'm

1886
01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:41,760
Speaker 2: in much older than that, so God bless you. She's

1887
01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:42,519
Speaker 2: going to be driving a.

1888
01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:45,200
Speaker 7: Knee scooter.

1889
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:48,360
Speaker 2: Scooter's all good, so he's pretty fast on that. Doctor

1890
01:29:48,640 --> 01:29:53,360
Speaker 2: Samantha Baker at christ she's great. Yeah, I it was awesome.

1891
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:55,839
Speaker 2: What's going on in the world of real estate? Although

1892
01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:58,720
Speaker 2: I suppose we should talk more healthcare related stuff at

1893
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:00,519
Speaker 2: this point. I know the government should down. Is that

1894
01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:01,479
Speaker 2: affecting things at all?

1895
01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:05,040
Speaker 7: It is? Yeah, absolutely, it's going to slow things down,

1896
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:09,560
Speaker 7: and depending on how long the government shut down lasts,

1897
01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:13,599
Speaker 7: the impact on real estate could certainly take a while.

1898
01:30:13,640 --> 01:30:17,879
Speaker 7: It's going to delay some transactions, so if you're planning

1899
01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:21,840
Speaker 7: to close in the next two weeks, it may be delayed.

1900
01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:25,200
Speaker 7: So we're going to have to have a lot of patients.

1901
01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:27,200
Speaker 7: If you're a buyer, if you're a seller, if you

1902
01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:33,040
Speaker 7: have plans to move, if you have movers scheduled, it

1903
01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:36,519
Speaker 7: may be completely out of your hands. If you're waiting

1904
01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:41,120
Speaker 7: on some federal funding. That would be your government backed loans.

1905
01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:47,439
Speaker 7: Federal Housing Administration, the FAHA loans, the VA loans, USDA

1906
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:53,839
Speaker 7: loans are all vulnerable for being slowed down during this process.

1907
01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:55,720
Speaker 2: Not stop, but slowed, just.

1908
01:30:55,720 --> 01:31:00,320
Speaker 7: Slowed because they're taking about half of the employees and

1909
01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:03,479
Speaker 7: they're furloughing them, got it, so the other half will

1910
01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:09,400
Speaker 7: be doing double duty. And so eventually, eventually it will close,

1911
01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:13,040
Speaker 7: the paperwork will go through. But yeah, it's it's going

1912
01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:15,680
Speaker 7: to take a minute. And I think that everybody's just

1913
01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:16,360
Speaker 7: got to be aware.

1914
01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:20,479
Speaker 2: It's just enough to make it so inconvenient. It upsets

1915
01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:22,920
Speaker 2: you about the government showdown for the now. If you're

1916
01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:25,360
Speaker 2: going through it, it's you know, life and death, because

1917
01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:28,320
Speaker 2: if you think about when we just bought a house, right, okay,

1918
01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:30,280
Speaker 2: so you have to sell your house to buy the

1919
01:31:30,320 --> 01:31:32,360
Speaker 2: new house, and then that person's buying a house, and

1920
01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:37,840
Speaker 2: if one person in that chain has an FHA or

1921
01:31:37,960 --> 01:31:40,519
Speaker 2: VA long or something like that, then that could come

1922
01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:44,000
Speaker 2: everything up and screw things up just enough to slow

1923
01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:46,439
Speaker 2: it down to a point where you're losing a lot

1924
01:31:46,439 --> 01:31:48,920
Speaker 2: of sleep over it, which is exactly what they wanted.

1925
01:31:48,960 --> 01:31:50,639
Speaker 2: I was pointing out the first half of the show.

1926
01:31:50,920 --> 01:31:52,720
Speaker 2: But you know, the war of the government shutdown and

1927
01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:54,559
Speaker 2: who's really the blame here, And the fact of the

1928
01:31:54,560 --> 01:31:58,680
Speaker 2: matter is it's politics, right, So roughly you think it's

1929
01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:01,679
Speaker 2: a lot more. But for total federal spending, only eight

1930
01:32:01,720 --> 01:32:03,519
Speaker 2: percent of the government to shut down and what they

1931
01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:05,960
Speaker 2: call non essential role, so ninety two percent of the

1932
01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:09,680
Speaker 2: government according to Democrats and Republicans who are empower may

1933
01:32:09,680 --> 01:32:11,960
Speaker 2: I point out think that ninety two percent of governments

1934
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:16,400
Speaker 2: essential what gets shut down museums, national parks, the FHA,

1935
01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:19,120
Speaker 2: loans get slowed down, all that stuff. To make you squeeze.

1936
01:32:19,160 --> 01:32:21,639
Speaker 2: You know, it's still going on though, But the Army,

1937
01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:27,639
Speaker 2: the Navy Air Force game on Saturday, just.

1938
01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:30,320
Speaker 1: To show you, like, well, you know what we want

1939
01:32:30,320 --> 01:32:32,080
Speaker 1: people to be, we don't want to be. You want

1940
01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:34,920
Speaker 1: to get people upset, start cutting the Medicare and Social

1941
01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:39,400
Speaker 1: Security payments. But they will do it because this is politics,

1942
01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:40,200
Speaker 1: it's not reality.

1943
01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:44,599
Speaker 7: There are a lot of employees who have to there.

1944
01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:47,639
Speaker 7: Essential employees have to report to work, but they're not

1945
01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:50,599
Speaker 7: going to be getting a paycheck until all this is over.

1946
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,720
Speaker 7: Now they will get back paid. Don't get the back pay.

1947
01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:55,280
Speaker 2: I'm going to go that long. It never does. But

1948
01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:57,840
Speaker 2: how many longest one we had was twenty eight days

1949
01:32:57,920 --> 01:32:59,720
Speaker 2: or something, and that's when people started to feel the pain.

1950
01:33:00,360 --> 01:33:02,839
Speaker 2: You get paid every two weeks, and that's what happens.

1951
01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:05,160
Speaker 2: So you really wanted to knock the stuff off. You

1952
01:33:05,160 --> 01:33:06,599
Speaker 2: know what you do is you just wouldn't pay these

1953
01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:10,400
Speaker 2: bums in Congress, the executive branch, the judiciary, and the

1954
01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:14,479
Speaker 2: legislative branch is simply cut their benefits off and see

1955
01:33:14,479 --> 01:33:14,920
Speaker 2: how they like.

1956
01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:15,120
Speaker 4: It.

1957
01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:16,720
Speaker 2: Wouldn't have any shutdowns.

1958
01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,200
Speaker 7: When we go back to the real estate issues, if

1959
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:23,840
Speaker 7: you are a government employee and you're in the process

1960
01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:27,559
Speaker 7: of buying a home and you don't have any income

1961
01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:31,200
Speaker 7: coming in, there's a good chance that that loan can't

1962
01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:33,680
Speaker 7: close until your money is you know, until you get

1963
01:33:33,720 --> 01:33:34,559
Speaker 7: all of your money.

1964
01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:35,200
Speaker 4: Now.

1965
01:33:35,360 --> 01:33:37,519
Speaker 7: Of course, there are ways to get around it, because

1966
01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:39,920
Speaker 7: we know that eventually you'll get paid.

1967
01:33:40,120 --> 01:33:41,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, But and.

1968
01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:44,920
Speaker 7: Then the government employees are very concerned about being able

1969
01:33:44,960 --> 01:33:48,120
Speaker 7: to make their mortgage. And if you're in that vote

1970
01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:49,559
Speaker 7: and you don't know if you're going to be able

1971
01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:51,920
Speaker 7: to make your mortgage, if it does last for that

1972
01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:55,320
Speaker 7: long a thirty days or more, you may ask for

1973
01:33:55,360 --> 01:33:59,720
Speaker 7: an extension. I think most lenders are going to They're

1974
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:03,760
Speaker 7: going to understand the situation, and as long as you've

1975
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:06,879
Speaker 7: been doing a really good job of making your payments

1976
01:34:06,960 --> 01:34:11,320
Speaker 7: on time, you should be fine. But overall, it's it's

1977
01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:14,280
Speaker 7: gonna slow down. We don't need any more slow downs

1978
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,040
Speaker 7: in the real estate industry right now. We just don't

1979
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:20,479
Speaker 7: need it. Because interest rates have been so high, they're

1980
01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:23,719
Speaker 7: starting to come down. They're supposed to come down even further.

1981
01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:27,440
Speaker 7: Everybody there. It's interesting because I keep hearing this recurring

1982
01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:30,760
Speaker 7: buyers saying, I think the interest rates are going to

1983
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:31,519
Speaker 7: come down to three.

1984
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:34,160
Speaker 2: Persons, So people wait to go wait, come back.

1985
01:34:34,400 --> 01:34:39,439
Speaker 7: And you know, there's I absolutely believe that if you

1986
01:34:39,520 --> 01:34:43,240
Speaker 7: can afford to go ahead and buy, knowing all of

1987
01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:46,120
Speaker 7: this and having all of the information, go ahead and

1988
01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:50,080
Speaker 7: move forward if you can. And there are a lot

1989
01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:52,880
Speaker 7: of sellers out there right now who have been on

1990
01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:57,960
Speaker 7: the market for two, three, four, five weeks, and those

1991
01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:00,920
Speaker 7: sellers are starting to get a little nervous, a little

1992
01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:05,120
Speaker 7: bit antsy, they are more willing to negotiate. So now,

1993
01:35:05,160 --> 01:35:09,040
Speaker 7: as a buyer, there are opportunities that you have not

1994
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:13,280
Speaker 7: had for years. For years, it's been a seller's market.

1995
01:35:13,960 --> 01:35:16,960
Speaker 7: Now the market is kind of it's moving in a

1996
01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:21,160
Speaker 7: direction that it's more of an even playing field, and

1997
01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:25,960
Speaker 7: buyers have opportunities. Buyers have opportunities. Now, I'm never going

1998
01:35:26,040 --> 01:35:27,960
Speaker 7: to tell a buyer to go in and do that

1999
01:35:28,040 --> 01:35:31,799
Speaker 7: low ball thing go down like twenty thirty forty thousand dollars.

2000
01:35:32,240 --> 01:35:36,559
Speaker 7: You're only going to make the seller really mad, and

2001
01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:41,000
Speaker 7: you're not being realistic. Let's be realistic. I know everybody's

2002
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:45,439
Speaker 7: looks for a deal, but I personally think that there

2003
01:35:45,479 --> 01:35:50,479
Speaker 7: are opportunities. There are always opportunities in any situation. You know,

2004
01:35:50,520 --> 01:35:53,840
Speaker 7: when the stock market goes one way or another, there's opportunities.

2005
01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:58,719
Speaker 7: Same thing with real estate. This shutdown of the government

2006
01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:02,479
Speaker 7: could provide some opportunities for some people. It can also

2007
01:36:02,800 --> 01:36:03,680
Speaker 7: provide a lot of.

2008
01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:04,760
Speaker 2: But it isn't a big problem.

2009
01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 7: Still inventory though we have inventory, We do have some inventory.

2010
01:36:09,360 --> 01:36:11,120
Speaker 2: Last week you said we had no inventory. Now this

2011
01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:12,040
Speaker 2: week we got inventory.

2012
01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:14,200
Speaker 7: What do you mean we haven't talked about real estate

2013
01:36:14,240 --> 01:36:14,880
Speaker 7: for three weeks.

2014
01:36:14,880 --> 01:36:16,800
Speaker 2: Wait, wait, it's three weeks later. What happened? What kind

2015
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:19,400
Speaker 2: of drugs are you giving me this recovery?

2016
01:36:20,400 --> 01:36:20,600
Speaker 5: You know?

2017
01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:22,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, drugs are good.

2018
01:36:22,960 --> 01:36:25,759
Speaker 2: Three weeks later? Yeah, the hell's going on? I haven't

2019
01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:29,800
Speaker 2: talked on this channel. Yeah, and now too. Yeah, and

2020
01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:32,160
Speaker 2: there's some more inventory. It's certainly not there where you

2021
01:36:32,160 --> 01:36:33,760
Speaker 2: need to be, but there is. So there are people

2022
01:36:33,760 --> 01:36:35,479
Speaker 2: waiting for more deals, is what you're Saying's like, I

2023
01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:37,800
Speaker 2: can get better if I sign, but you could always

2024
01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:41,439
Speaker 2: refinance later too, right of course, and the property you want.

2025
01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:45,280
Speaker 7: And right now, the interest rate is around six point

2026
01:36:45,280 --> 01:36:48,519
Speaker 7: three five when I looked yesterday. That's pretty good because

2027
01:36:48,560 --> 01:36:49,880
Speaker 7: we were around seven percent.

2028
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:52,800
Speaker 2: How long it's good. People are waiting to get back

2029
01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:55,280
Speaker 2: down to the glory days of sub three percent. It's

2030
01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:56,519
Speaker 2: gonna be like ten years, isn't it.

2031
01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:58,439
Speaker 7: I don't think you'll ever see that again, because it

2032
01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:01,400
Speaker 7: really it's what they say, it really mess stuff. I mean,

2033
01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:04,719
Speaker 7: I don't know, I'll never say never.

2034
01:37:05,400 --> 01:37:07,200
Speaker 2: What did it mess up? You said it was gonna mess.

2035
01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:08,920
Speaker 7: Well, because there's so many people that are still sitting

2036
01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:11,400
Speaker 7: on the sidelines with a three percent mortgage saying I'm

2037
01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:12,240
Speaker 7: not giving that up.

2038
01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:14,519
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, you know so paid.

2039
01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:17,439
Speaker 7: Many people are staying in their home so much longer

2040
01:37:17,920 --> 01:37:20,439
Speaker 7: because they have that low mortgage rate. So that's how

2041
01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:23,559
Speaker 7: it messed up things. Is like everybody felt like they're

2042
01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:26,720
Speaker 7: in a standstill and you know you're never going to

2043
01:37:26,800 --> 01:37:29,040
Speaker 7: see those rates again. It was like we've talked about it.

2044
01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:32,240
Speaker 7: It's like free money, you know, three percent mortgage, are

2045
01:37:32,240 --> 01:37:32,639
Speaker 7: you kidding?

2046
01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:35,959
Speaker 2: I remembers locking into like two seven five or something ridiculous.

2047
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:38,880
Speaker 7: And there are some people who they are milking every

2048
01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:41,040
Speaker 7: bit of that. You know, they're not paying it off

2049
01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:41,760
Speaker 7: because they're like.

2050
01:37:42,160 --> 01:37:44,840
Speaker 2: Well, at some point, you know, you either move because

2051
01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:48,519
Speaker 2: of a job or because you've got to move, or

2052
01:37:48,600 --> 01:37:52,280
Speaker 2: you you know, you wind up dying yourself at that point.

2053
01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:55,680
Speaker 2: But that's a long time though. That's that's glacial in

2054
01:37:55,760 --> 01:37:58,719
Speaker 2: terms of what you guys do. Also when the mortgage

2055
01:37:58,720 --> 01:37:59,759
Speaker 2: mortgage broking business.

2056
01:38:00,080 --> 01:38:03,680
Speaker 7: Absolutely, so we're definitely going to see some volatility. I

2057
01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:07,360
Speaker 7: would say, you know, just everybody has to be patient.

2058
01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,840
Speaker 7: I have had to be really patient over the last now.

2059
01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:18,240
Speaker 7: But and I know that everybody has missed you, So

2060
01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:22,040
Speaker 7: I don't think that's true. No, I know, I've heard

2061
01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:23,479
Speaker 7: lots of people who have missed.

2062
01:38:23,720 --> 01:38:26,160

Speaker 7: the chauffeur to the Star.

2077
01:39:03,400 --> 01:39:06,160
Speaker 2: There's a chance maybe though that it's sooner rather than later.

2078
01:39:06,160 --> 01:39:09,000
Speaker 2: There's a chance I could maybe start driving again.

2079
01:39:09,520 --> 01:39:10,719
Speaker 7: You can't pick up your scooter.

2080

Speaker 7: his knee scooter. And he's pretty fast.

2085
01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:25,559
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, the most stable thing you could. I could

2086
01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:27,680
Speaker 2: roll that pretty easy. I gotta be careful, I know.

2087
01:39:27,960 --> 01:39:28,559

01:39:48,720 --> 01:39:51,679
Speaker 2: It's fine, it's fine, it's fine, but manly that nee scooter.

2099
01:39:51,680 --> 01:39:53,599
Speaker 2: I tell you, if you had leg knee surgery, that's

2100
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:54,040

2103
01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:58,599
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's it does seem a bit wobbly though it is,

2104
01:39:59,160 --> 01:40:01,920
Speaker 7: but yeah, you the hard part for you now, our.

2105
01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:03,400
Speaker 2: Dog is not a fan of that. He sees that

2106
01:40:03,439 --> 01:40:06,120
Speaker 2: thing and he hides because he's afraidest title is going

2107
01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:07,720
Speaker 2: to get run over or something with that. Other than that,

2108
01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:10,720
Speaker 2: it's pretty good. So yeah, all right, well love me,

2109
01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:13,000
Speaker 2: thanks again, and I've got to get going here because

2110
01:40:13,040 --> 01:40:14,320
Speaker 2: Willie is on the way in a few minutes here

2111
01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:16,800
Speaker 2: in the Big One seven hundred WLW. Of course, the

2112
01:40:16,840 --> 01:40:19,519
Speaker 2: big story today written and we'll get into this. I

2113
01:40:19,560 --> 01:40:21,120
Speaker 2: think maybe with the Reds round up the cowb I'm

2114
01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:24,040
Speaker 2: not quite sure. But of course, the Reds losing last

2115
01:40:24,080 --> 01:40:27,559
Speaker 2: night in LA kind of root in a sense, thinking, oh,

2116
01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:31,000
Speaker 2: this is a foregone conclusion because the other teams all

2117
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:33,880
Speaker 2: took them to game four or game threes rather, and

2118
01:40:34,120 --> 01:40:37,320
Speaker 2: the Reds got swept out in Los Angeles last night.

2119
01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:40,280
Speaker 2: We had a chance early on, They're up to nothing,

2120
01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:41,960
Speaker 2: looks it was gonna hold for a while, and then

2121
01:40:42,080 --> 01:40:43,920
Speaker 2: LA does what they do with that big fat payroll

2122
01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:47,640
Speaker 2: of theirs and just steamrolled the Cincinnati Reds last night.

2123
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:50,479
Speaker 2: So the Reds have been eliminated and you can't kill

2124
01:40:50,520 --> 01:40:52,360
Speaker 2: them while they got killed in two games just like that.

2125
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:54,720
Speaker 2: So we got lots to talk about that. Of course,

2126
01:40:54,760 --> 01:40:57,120
Speaker 2: the big story today, And if you're waking up this morning,

2127
01:40:57,200 --> 01:40:59,680
Speaker 2: you're a little hungover from watching the Reds and they

2128
01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:04,000
Speaker 2: had answer certainly basis loaded situations, couldn't get the guys around,

2129
01:41:04,280 --> 01:41:07,720
Speaker 2: and they lose in Los Angeles, eliminated from playoffs for

2130
01:41:07,840 --> 01:41:10,720
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. Now, the good news is, and I

2131
01:41:10,760 --> 01:41:13,280
Speaker 2: think the honest is on ownership here in the Castellini family,

2132
01:41:13,520 --> 01:41:16,479
Speaker 2: what moves you make in the offseason to get yourself

2133
01:41:16,520 --> 01:41:18,920
Speaker 2: to the point where you can advance in the postseason. Really,

2134
01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:20,720
Speaker 2: I mean, we talked about it all year long, how

2135
01:41:20,720 --> 01:41:23,040
Speaker 2: close they really were, felt like a five hundred team

2136
01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:25,080
Speaker 2: all season. They hovered around that. But what puts them

2137
01:41:25,080 --> 01:41:27,479
Speaker 2: over the top gonna be some bats, although we've seen

2138
01:41:27,479 --> 01:41:30,320
Speaker 2: that before. You get bats in Cincinnati and Great American

2139
01:41:30,360 --> 01:41:32,800
Speaker 2: Small Park, and for some reason, batters come here and

2140
01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:34,800
Speaker 2: they still can't hit. So I don't know if there's

2141
01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:36,800
Speaker 2: a curse, if we have to have some sort of

2142
01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:40,000
Speaker 2: exorcism at Great American Ballpark, I'm not quite sure. But

2143
01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:42,759
Speaker 2: as bad as it is to get licked and whooped

2144
01:41:42,800 --> 01:41:45,479
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles against the team that quite honestly came

2145
01:41:45,479 --> 01:41:48,040
Speaker 2: off a World Series championship and just said they're payroll

2146
01:41:48,040 --> 01:41:50,960
Speaker 2: absolutely loaded, so I know it's going to be a

2147
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:52,800
Speaker 2: good twenty twenty six for sure. I know, I know.

2148
01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:55,519
Speaker 2: And we've got a long, long cold winter the way

2149
01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:57,599
Speaker 2: the Bengals are playing anyway, that and more coming up

2150
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:00,680
Speaker 2: with Jeff Brownley the Cowboy. We'll get to news, and

2151
01:42:00,680 --> 01:42:02,680
Speaker 2: then Cunningham takes over twelve oh six. I'll see it

2152
01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:04,519
Speaker 2: back here to Martin. Nine oh six, got thrown back

2153
01:42:04,600 --> 01:42:07,599
Speaker 2: finally on the Home of the Red seven hundred WWD Cincinnati,
