Speaker 1: Those frequently, but here we are strange days. I guess
Speaker 1: indeed political director and a guy who knows a thing
Speaker 1: or two about the normalization of marijuana laws. Apparently last
Speaker 1: week when we were talking about where the law stood
Speaker 1: in Ohio and to wine signing changes into place, we
Speaker 1: also mentioned classification of the drug. And that is with
Speaker 1: an executive order from President Trump, almost as if he
Speaker 1: or someone was listening, has made an alteration to the
Speaker 1: way stuff is being done in these United States. Can
Speaker 1: you break down what this change in classification means?
Speaker 2: Well, Basically, what the President did was direct federal agencies
Speaker 2: to restart the process that was began under the Biden
Speaker 2: administration to move cannabis from.
Speaker 3: Schedule one to Schedule three.
Speaker 2: Under Schedule one, cannabis would be defined as a drug
Speaker 2: with no accepted medical uses within the United States and
Speaker 2: high potential for abuse, and moved to Schedule three just
Speaker 2: validates what millions of patients and consumers and thousands of
Speaker 2: researchers and medical professionals already know, which is that cannabis
Speaker 2: clearly does have medical uses and has a much lower
Speaker 2: potential for abuse than drugs that aren't even on the schedules,
Speaker 2: such as tobacco and alcohol. And unfortunately, this does not
Speaker 2: happen automatically. This is an ongoing process and is also
Speaker 2: open to legal challenge, which you know, we have already
Speaker 2: heard that opponents of cannabis policy reform are already preparing,
Speaker 2: so it could be months, if not years, before this
Speaker 2: change actually comes to pass. But I do think that
Speaker 2: it's important to recognize that, you know, this is something
Speaker 2: that a lot of prohibitionist lawmakers and other policy makers
Speaker 2: have leaned on for a long time, this Schedule one status,
Speaker 2: and they won't touch cannabis issues until cannabis is move
Speaker 2: from Schedule one. So the fact that President Trump has
Speaker 2: decided to at least put his stamp on this, I
Speaker 2: think is going to be really kind of revolutionary in
Speaker 2: terms of changing the conversation around the substance and the
Speaker 2: policies that regulated.
Speaker 1: Talking to Morgan Fox, he's the political director for Normal
Speaker 1: Sterling seven hundred WLW. So it means something, but it
Speaker 1: actually means nothing at least in the innum, I guess.
Speaker 1: But a lot of talk has been about research and
Speaker 1: having access to, if not just the ability for universities
Speaker 1: and other organizations to actually check a lot of the
Speaker 1: things that Normal and other organizations have talked about with
Speaker 1: the benefits of cannabis use in some fashion correct well.
Speaker 2: Interestingly, rescheduling to Schedule three doesn't really impact research all
Speaker 2: that much. Cannabis is already one of the most heavily
Speaker 2: studied psychoactive substances on the planet, and many of the
Speaker 2: barrier to research have already been removed by Congress in
Speaker 2: the previous sessions, and one of the major barriers to
Speaker 2: research specifically the fact that it is difficult, if not impossible,
Speaker 2: for researchers to be able to study in a clinical setting,
Speaker 2: not just observational studies, the effects of products that people
Speaker 2: can access in legal markets like Ohio's without Basically they're
Speaker 2: unable to access these products that people are actually using
Speaker 2: and are forced to study cannabis via products that are
Speaker 2: produced in federally approved labs is really setting scientists back,
Speaker 2: and moving cannabis Schedule three is not necessarily going to
Speaker 2: change that. That's going to take an Act of Congress
Speaker 2: or significant changes within both the FDA and the DEA.
Speaker 1: So Morgan Fox, political director for Normal, Sterling seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: So it moves a little bit in the right direction
Speaker 1: it takes away some of the stigma. The classification goes
Speaker 1: away from I guess what is it a heroin and
Speaker 1: cocaine and puts it at a level with say, alcohol
Speaker 1: and some other stuff.
Speaker 4: Is that right?
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to make sense of it's a benefit
Speaker 1: to have the President change this with an executive order,
Speaker 1: aside from the time it takes to really go into
Speaker 1: actually making a difference, I've just been trying to figure
Speaker 1: out what the difference really is.
Speaker 2: Well, the primary difference is that state licensed cannabis businesses
Speaker 2: will now be able to deduct normal business expenses on
Speaker 2: their federal taxes, whereas previously they were not able to
Speaker 2: do so. And again this is contingent on this process
Speaker 2: actually moving forward in a timely manner. But once cannabis
Speaker 2: is moved to Schedule three, then cannabis businesses will no
Speaker 2: longer be subject to what's called the two to ade
Speaker 2: tax code, which prevents them from deducting normal business expenses,
Speaker 2: resulting in effective federal tax rates of anywhere from fifty
Speaker 2: to eighty percent.
Speaker 3: And that's on top of the already exorbitant.
Speaker 2: State level taxes and local taxes, and the incredibly exorbitant
Speaker 2: costs associated with regulatory compliance. So if and when this
Speaker 2: does finally happen, that will be a huge boon for
Speaker 2: licensed providers.
Speaker 1: Gotcha, Okay, So I mean it makes sense. I kind
Speaker 1: of understand. But it's just a very odd gray area
Speaker 1: for something that grows arguably even wildly, and people have
Speaker 1: been using since before the country existed. It is still
Speaker 1: sort of a strange thing. Political director from Normal, which
Speaker 1: is the National Organization for a Reform of Marijuana Laws,
Speaker 1: Morgan Fox, was sterling on the big one. What else
Speaker 1: do you is relevant to this change when it finally
Speaker 1: does come since that actually has been signed, and then
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about now Governor DeWine saying
Speaker 1: he is going to sign this order from the lawmakers
Speaker 1: in Columbus that we talked about a week ago, moving
Speaker 1: ahead and making changes to some of the I guess
Speaker 1: you'd call it hemp products that have been sort of
Speaker 1: under the radar and carved out in that farm bill.
Speaker 2: Well, I think that the most immediate impact is going
Speaker 2: to be that the fact that the President has supported
Speaker 2: this move will hopefully encourage Republican lawmakers both in Congress
Speaker 2: and at the state level to take this easy more
Speaker 2: seriously and will embolden some of them who have been
Speaker 2: privately supportive of cannabis policy reformed to be more publicly
Speaker 2: supportive of it and pursue rational and sensible policies as
Speaker 2: opposed to continuing to double down on prohibition. In terms
Speaker 2: of what it means for Ohio, and with the recent
Speaker 2: hemp restrictions that were included in the Continuing Resolution budget initiative,
Speaker 2: you know, I think that that remains to be seen
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, though I think it's
Speaker 2: important to note that cannabis is still illegal and just,
Speaker 2: and the federal government has not been really expending a
Speaker 2: lot of resources to try to interfere with stay level
Speaker 2: programs like Ohio's, and I think that we can probably
Speaker 2: expect a similar resource devotion when it comes to hemp products.
Speaker 1: The possibility exists because of the way things have been,
Speaker 1: even though there have been modest changes and maybe even
Speaker 1: more than modest changes the last few years with the
Speaker 1: voters in Ohio and others across the country, but still
Speaker 1: issues of effectively normalizing it for one of a better
Speaker 1: way to describe it in how it's dealt with. So,
Speaker 1: what would you tell someone who is a senior citizen
Speaker 1: who maybe is going to the dispensary or going to
Speaker 1: that corner market that at this point is selling that
Speaker 1: product that had been in the gray area and will
Speaker 1: be I guess for a better part of another year
Speaker 1: or so, or someone else who's thinking that because there's
Speaker 1: a lot of CBD shops, there's a lot of these
Speaker 1: other things aside from the dispensaries. I think there's one
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy seven or something across the state that
Speaker 1: are legally from recreational as well as the prescription type medicinal.
Speaker 2: I would encourage everybody that is interested in any sort
Speaker 2: of cannabinoid products to go to licensed and regulated sources
Speaker 2: for those products. Don't buy things from gas stations, don't
Speaker 2: buy things online because there are a lot of good
Speaker 2: actors in that space, but there's a lot of bad
Speaker 2: actors too, And you really don't know what sort of
Speaker 2: adulterance or what sort of production methodologies or standards that
Speaker 2: people have used for making these products when you're outside
Speaker 2: of the state licensed system.
Speaker 1: It is a normal norml dot Org and we're talking
Speaker 1: to Morgan Fox, political director. I've had them on the
Speaker 1: show a bunch over the years, and I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: I think it's probably the shortest window of time we've
Speaker 1: had you on in between segments, but it seemed like
Speaker 1: noteworthy to just sort of get to this now, completely
Speaker 1: off the beaten path. You are making hot sauce, and
Speaker 1: I know that we weren't. We talked about it off
Speaker 1: the air. How much hot sauce are you making? And
Speaker 1: I realize it's not a commercial product, but I mean,
Speaker 1: how you get into the business of making hot sauce?
Speaker 1: And like, are you the guide that all your friends
Speaker 1: and family go to when they're looking for some sauce
Speaker 1: for their food and stuff?
Speaker 2: Interestingly enough, you know, the regulatory hurdles that I'm having
Speaker 2: to jump through are pretty similar to those in cannabis
Speaker 2: in order to ensure consumer safety. But if and when
Speaker 2: I'm able to finally get Mofo's Lava Flow on the shelves,
Speaker 2: you can be sure that all of the ingredients are
Speaker 2: grown on my garden.
Speaker 1: Mofos Lava Flow. This is a great name. I like
Speaker 1: it and I look forward to sampling it center than later.
Speaker 1: Is there anything I haven't asked about?
Speaker 4: Normal?
Speaker 1: And about this change from the President's desk to the
Speaker 1: wine's desk in Columbus or anything else related to this.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 2: Specific to Ohio, we recently saw the legislature pass SB
Speaker 2: fifty six, which I think was kind of pushed through.
Speaker 3: Because of the desire to.
Speaker 2: Restrict the access to unregulated hemp derived or hemp synthesized
Speaker 2: products that were proliferating throughout the state without any sort
Speaker 2: of age gating and without any sort of regulatory oversight
Speaker 2: in terms of quality and safety, entirely separate from the
Speaker 2: licensed cannabis system that has existed since of voters approved
Speaker 2: Issue too. Unfortunately, that bill also included a number of
Speaker 2: provisions that recriminalized behavior that ohioan's had been responsibly enjoying
Speaker 2: for a couple of years now. So if and when
Speaker 2: it appears very likely that the Wine is going to
Speaker 2: sign this, it's going to be illegal for anybody to
Speaker 2: possess cannabis that does not originate in Ohio unless you
Speaker 2: can prove that you purchased or grew that cannabis in Ohio,
Speaker 2: you will be subject to the same penalties that people
Speaker 2: were subject to prior to the passage of issue too.
Speaker 2: So anybody traveling in from out of state, including like Kentucky,
Speaker 2: medical cannabis patients, people coming in from Michigan, et cetera.
Speaker 3: Are now going to be subject to arrest.
Speaker 4: That's not good.
Speaker 2: Not only that, but I think, and this is one
Speaker 2: of the things that a lot of people have overlooked.
Speaker 2: The legislature also removed civil protections for cannabis consumers, for
Speaker 2: discrimination in terms of employment, housing, child custody.
Speaker 3: And a number of other issues.
Speaker 2: And there was absolutely no justification offered for this, and
Speaker 2: it just slid through and nobody was paying attention to it,
Speaker 2: aside from normal and our allies at OSU and that
Speaker 2: Dark Policy Alliance. And it's it's really really frustrating that
Speaker 2: the legislature just decided to completely overturn the will of
Speaker 2: the people when it came to protecting responsible canvas users.
Speaker 1: It's a strange thing considering, you know, the idea that
Speaker 1: voters made a choice and read what they were voting for,
Speaker 1: and then of course lawmakers said that people didn't know
Speaker 1: what they were reading and didn't understand it.
Speaker 3: But it's a slap in the face.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is. Well, I appreciate your time. It
Speaker 1: puts a lot of people who are in the you know,
Speaker 1: the Commonwealth of Kentucky or back and forth to Michigan.
Speaker 1: This burden of proof on the consumer rather than on
Speaker 1: someone else who's pointing the finger at you is kind
Speaker 1: of difficult, and I don't see anything good coming from.
Speaker 6: This, no.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's going to result in thousands of unnecessary arrests.
Speaker 2: And you know another thing that I should point out
Speaker 2: to your listeners. You will have to transport cannabis in
Speaker 2: a either a sealed container it's original packaging unopened, or
Speaker 2: it has to be in your trunk or in an
Speaker 2: area that's inaccessible to the driver going forward. Otherwise you
Speaker 2: will be subject to arrest and prosecution.
Speaker 1: And in that point, if they get a hit from
Speaker 1: a drug dog or something else and it's in the
Speaker 1: right place, even though you may have a prescription or
Speaker 1: it is recreational and legally purchased, they can still get
Speaker 1: into your car, tear out your car, and then charge
Speaker 1: you if you don't have somehow a paper trail to
Speaker 1: prove you have a receipt that it came from this
Speaker 1: location or something along those lines. I mean, this could
Speaker 1: get really ticky tacky in the way that this is prosecuted.
Speaker 2: Correct, and it's not only going to result in a
Speaker 2: lot of unnecessary arrests. It's also going to be a
Speaker 2: huge tax on law enforcement and those resources could be
Speaker 2: better spend elsewhere.
Speaker 1: And just one more thing here, because I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't think anyone and I know that last time we
Speaker 1: had you on and I brought this type of stuff
Speaker 1: up before, and I've had callers also mentioned it. Morgan Fox,
Speaker 1: by the way, his political director from Normal with Stirling
Speaker 1: on seven hundred WLW, is you're negotiating where we stand
Speaker 1: on the law now and where it was before it
Speaker 1: gets into such a I guess it's a tricky area
Speaker 1: as far as what's legal, what is not legal, and
Speaker 1: culpability for anybody getting involved and engaging with pointing the
Speaker 1: finger at somebody for doing something that is not illegal,
Speaker 1: but you're not advocating for you know, kids buying it
Speaker 1: or you know, misusing it or selling it otherwise or
Speaker 1: anything other along those lines, because a lot of times
Speaker 1: people come out and say, well, this is just wanting
Speaker 1: you know, people are wanting anything to go on no
Speaker 1: rules at all.
Speaker 3: Quite the opposite.
Speaker 2: I mean, legalization and regulation is the only way to
Speaker 2: provide things like age gating and quality control testing for products,
Speaker 2: to improve public safety. You know, I think a lot
Speaker 2: of people say like, oh, well, legalization is just going
Speaker 2: to you know, lead to lots of kids getting high.
Speaker 2: But when you look at the research, we've seen that
Speaker 2: not only had as you've us not gone up in
Speaker 2: legalization states, in many cases, it's actually gone down. And
Speaker 2: you know, the the idea that you know, somehow legalization
Speaker 2: is introducing a new substance into society is just frankly ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Normal is working to reform marijuana laws and their political
Speaker 1: director is Morgan Fox. I appreciate you making time. I
Speaker 1: hope you enjoyed the rest of your weekend. I'm looking
Speaker 1: forward to some of that mofos lava flow sauce and
Speaker 1: we'll see how that gets going regulations and all the
Speaker 1: hoops that you have to go through.
Speaker 4: I'm looking forward to tasting that as well. Thank you
Speaker 4: for sir.
Speaker 3: I can still gift you some without it being FDA approved.
Speaker 4: We can do that too.
Speaker 1: Slow as the guy adian Rocky in the afternoon, don't
Speaker 1: snake my sauce. I'm in good shape. We'll look forward
Speaker 1: to it. Thank you, Morgan, enjoy your weekend, have a
Speaker 1: great holiday as well. Christmas Time, New year's and all
Speaker 1: thanks you too, sir. Yes, sir, it's Morgan Fox, political director, Normal,
Speaker 1: Quick break, come back, your chance to be heard on
Speaker 1: the Nation station seven hundred WL double hanging out the weekend.
Speaker 4: Here, seven hundred wul W.
Speaker 1: Sean McMahon, keep me in line, Jack Cromley, what knows
Speaker 1: in about four minutes in your night first twenty forecast
Speaker 1: right now down to twenty five tonight near fifty for Saturday.
Speaker 4: This has been whiplash weather.
Speaker 1: A week ago it was the white Death coming the
Speaker 1: snow apocalypse which we dealt was Saturday into Sunday and
Speaker 1: all that mess and and then what else.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's.
Speaker 1: Warmer than it's cooler and pneumonia weather's what my grandmother
Speaker 1: would call it. Close to forty on Sunday. Bengals don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about that. They'll be in South Florida
Speaker 1: taken on those dolphins and hopefully we'll find a way
Speaker 1: to win again into the first of the week. About
Speaker 1: forty Right now, it's twenty seven your severe Weather station,
Speaker 1: seven hundred wul W. Good conversation there, Morgan Fox from Normal,
Speaker 1: their political director, talking about Mike Dwine signing that bill
Speaker 1: which has changed the legal and illegal lines that had
Speaker 1: been blurred the thanks to the farm bill and the
Speaker 1: cannabis that was a part of it was a what
Speaker 1: do they call it, intoxicating hemp rather than I guess
Speaker 1: the other weed. And then also the beverage business, which
Speaker 1: I know a whole lot of people who like to
Speaker 1: enjoy their adult beverages, which is not just alcohol but
Speaker 1: also the THC in it. But apparently that's going to
Speaker 1: go bye by, which seems quite weird to me. But
Speaker 1: you know, nobody really wanted anyone to have an ability
Speaker 1: to make decisions for themselves anyway, apparently, at least those
Speaker 1: in Columbus. Better part of sixty fifty seven fifty eight
Speaker 1: percent of Ohio voters read the law as it was
Speaker 1: written initially and said yea to it. And here we
Speaker 1: are five point three seven four nine seven eight hundred,
Speaker 1: the big one. I don't know how many people this
Speaker 1: really affects me and what I mean by that, and
Speaker 1: it will cause problems. But people have been smoking weed
Speaker 1: in one form or another for longer than this has
Speaker 1: been a country, and they will continue to do it
Speaker 1: and consume it in a multitude of different ways. Having
Speaker 1: some control over at ice PDEs does make sense. Certainly,
Speaker 1: nobody wants kids having access to it, no different than
Speaker 1: alcohol or cigarettes or any other type of substance such
Speaker 1: as that that may alter their state of mind and
Speaker 1: so forth. So we'll see exactly how it goes. I think,
Speaker 1: fine upstanding citizens who handle their business responsibly, you're just
Speaker 1: going to scratch their head and go, well, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe nothing will really change in the way they go
Speaker 1: about their daily lives. But people have been used to
Speaker 1: going to a smoke shop that is not one of
Speaker 1: those one hundred and seventy seven government sanctioned ones. You know,
Speaker 1: you're going to have to find a new place to go.
Speaker 1: And certainly those businesses that have employed some people, whether
Speaker 1: it's brewing, THC, beverages or otherwise, are going to have
Speaker 1: to navigate the waters of exiting that business sooner than later.
Speaker 1: And we'll see how many jobs are lost and so
Speaker 1: forth to go along with that.
Speaker 4: But all for the kids. It's to make the world safer.
Speaker 1: I suppose other stuff in the news speaking about making
Speaker 1: the world safer. The Epstein files dirt on that in
Speaker 1: the news with Crumbley in about a minute and ten
Speaker 1: seconds or so, and then we'll give you also a
Speaker 1: chance to talk on that a little bit later. A
Speaker 1: dump of a bunch of files, a bunch of pictures,
Speaker 1: a bunch of other information, and a whole lot of redaction.
Speaker 1: So I guess we'll wade through that. I don't know
Speaker 1: if that has soothed the itch and put a salve
Speaker 1: on the wonderings of those looking for justice and some
Speaker 1: type of outing of those who were into taking advantage
Speaker 1: of sums that have been sex trafficked and abused or
Speaker 1: otherwise by Epstein and Maxwell and who knows who else.
Speaker 1: We'll dive into that a bit later as well. After
Speaker 1: the news though, my man Kevin Carr, silver Gecko on
Speaker 1: the Substack, and my former partner in the Chubby and
Speaker 1: Stick podcast will join us and we'll talk on bo
Speaker 1: what is new in theaters and what is going on?
Speaker 1: And if I'm not mistaked, well well I'm not even
Speaker 1: what is he talking about? Is this an Avatar weekend?
Speaker 1: I think it might be the Avatar weekend. I think
Speaker 1: there may be a whole lot of people. I don't
Speaker 1: know that people paint themselves blue. I just imagine a
Speaker 1: mishap at riverbend in the summertime in a porta potty
Speaker 1: when people have gone nuts and you've been in line
Speaker 1: too long, and then they knock it over and then
Speaker 1: the blue juice turns you blue like a smurf. But
Speaker 1: I don't think that's really what the movie's about. He'll
Speaker 1: break it down after the news. Crumbley has it more
Speaker 1: sterling coming back Nation Station Friday Night where the Hooda
Speaker 1: plays Sunday seven hundred WLW. My good friend Kevin Carr,
Speaker 1: silver Gecko on the substack back on the big one, Kevin,
Speaker 1: do you feel festive? Do you feel jolly? Like the
Speaker 1: dead Burrel lives is just in the distance, singing softly?
Speaker 7: Are you just seeing it? Because I'm a little chubby
Speaker 7: and have a big, big fluffy bear.
Speaker 1: I can either confirm nor tony. I feel holly and
Speaker 1: jolly myself right now, and I am about half the
Speaker 1: man I used to be.
Speaker 7: As long as as long as Holly and Jolly have consented,
Speaker 7: then that's good.
Speaker 1: You know that's true. That's true. Especially with everything else
Speaker 1: in the news. I get like everything written certified, and
Speaker 1: if I could possibly find somebody notarize it.
Speaker 7: I would design field and delivered. Man.
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, how are you feeling Hell's everything? Is this
Speaker 1: officially Christmas weekend? Everybody tells me that. I know, They're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe we're taking time off, we're going on vacation, we're
Speaker 1: getting on the road roads, were busy on the way
Speaker 1: in tonight.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, Well because it's it's like it's because already
Speaker 7: everybody does Christmas. Even Christmas Day is kind of this
Speaker 7: one two punch, and you know, the Friday to twenty
Speaker 7: six that's absolutely rolling into a long Christmas weekend. But
Speaker 7: it's really more Christmas Week Christmas ten days, because yeah,
Speaker 7: I mean, if I I had a job, I could
Speaker 7: take off, you know, you take off Monday and Tuesday
Speaker 7: and enjoy the Wednesday and Thursday. Like back when I
Speaker 7: had my kids, when the kids were little, I mean
Speaker 7: I saw kids, but they're grown now. But when my
Speaker 7: kids were little, a week like this was the holly holliest,
Speaker 7: jolliest part because you could do stuff Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Speaker 7: My wife, as a teacher, was off on vacation and
Speaker 7: the kids were home. So so yeah, I mean absolutely,
Speaker 7: this is a great sort of time for Christmas to
Speaker 7: fall on. You know, either either a Wednesday or a Thursday,
Speaker 7: because you kind of get both weekends.
Speaker 1: Really, it's kind of nice. It doesn't happen this way
Speaker 1: all the time. And it sort of fits into twelve
Speaker 1: days of Christmas and on. And he got Hanukah. That's
Speaker 1: sort of like been banging through here as well. So
Speaker 1: it's a it's a good time. I have to ask,
Speaker 1: because the Avatar movie, I just know that people are
Speaker 1: crazy for them, sort of like the Wicked film and
Speaker 1: so forth.
Speaker 4: This is what is this the third or the fourth Avatar?
Speaker 4: The third movie is the third?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 1: And is it everything that it needed to be for
Speaker 1: people to be satisfied about those blue people from wherever
Speaker 1: it is that they.
Speaker 7: Have come Pandora? And yeah? I mean yes and no.
Speaker 7: I mean there's a certain point of view that that
Speaker 7: should realize. We don't need another Avatar movie. We really don't.
Speaker 7: But you're getting everything you'd want from an Avatar movie.
Speaker 7: I mean, it's just dazzling spectacle. It looks amazing on screen.
Speaker 7: It's eye popping visuals, stuff that you forget to even
Speaker 7: care about. Way is that real? Is that CGI did that?
Speaker 7: You know how they do that?
Speaker 4: I mean, it looks.
Speaker 7: Amazing and it's got some incredible action sequences. Are the
Speaker 7: characters still kind of two dimensional?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 7: You know, but this is this is as much as
Speaker 7: I love James Cameron as a writer and director of
Speaker 7: sci fi, you do have to realize he wrote a
Speaker 7: story about people traveling to another world for a mineral
Speaker 7: called unobtainium, which you have to sit there. When they
Speaker 7: said that, they only said it in the first movie.
Speaker 7: No one, they said it the first movie. You're like, really,
Speaker 7: that is the best you could come up. But okay,
Speaker 7: here's a billion dollars. So yeah, I mean it is
Speaker 7: everything you want from an Avatar movie, but it's nothing
Speaker 7: more than you really want from an Avatar movie. But
Speaker 7: I guess that's okay.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, fair enough.
Speaker 1: Now do you have like I remember watching reruns of
Speaker 1: Star Trek, the original, because they were all reruns by
Speaker 1: the time we hatched, and I found that Kirk was
Speaker 1: always with the blue women and green women and random
Speaker 1: women from all sorts of planets far far away. Have
Speaker 1: you found yourself oddly attracted to any of these Pandora peoples?
Speaker 7: Well, you know, like like so is Aldania plays the
Speaker 7: main lead interest in this series? Yeah, I've kind of
Speaker 7: gotten tired of her character because all she does is hissing,
Speaker 7: screech at the camera because she has it's just all
Speaker 7: emoting everywhere. But they've got this, okay. So in this
Speaker 7: new movie, the nav tribe is still fight the human
Speaker 7: invaders who are trying to get a foothold on the
Speaker 7: planet because of its unobtainable unobtainium and all the other
Speaker 7: resources that are on the planet. And they also run
Speaker 7: into this like this, this evil tribe of Navi who
Speaker 7: worshiped fire and destruction and the leader of that. Yeah,
Speaker 7: she takes a few boxes there. I mean, there is
Speaker 7: something alluring about her. And I thought the girl was
Speaker 7: getting cats was attractive as a cat, Yeah sort of way.
Speaker 1: Sure, did I take us into a bad place? I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't need to sheep in this I too much? No,
Speaker 1: I mean no, I think it's okay to open up
Speaker 1: and talk about that. I mean, yeah, yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: why not? Is there anything else this weekend? Or is
Speaker 1: this going to be the one all be all thing?
Speaker 1: And it seems to be like, I mean, as big
Speaker 1: as the TVs are now and I'm surrounded by monitors
Speaker 1: in this studio. Most people have a pretty decent sized
Speaker 1: screen at the house. But this seems like one of
Speaker 1: those things that if it's not Imax, it should at
Speaker 1: least be a big theater kind of thing.
Speaker 7: This is the kind of movie. And I don't say
Speaker 7: this about many films, you know, I did not say
Speaker 7: this about stuff like My Dinner with Andre. But for
Speaker 7: this movie, see it on the biggest screen. You can
Speaker 7: see it in the best form of three d imax
Speaker 7: large format that you can, because it is of everybody
Speaker 7: else complaining about every other type of three d imax
Speaker 7: big screen movie, this one's definitely worth it. I mean
Speaker 7: it is. That's part of the reason you're seeing an
Speaker 7: Avatar movie. It's for the scope and the scale and
Speaker 7: the depth of the animation to it. So yeah, absolutely
Speaker 7: this one. You know. Yeah, Like I said, maybe not,
Speaker 7: you don't have to go see some you know, TV
Speaker 7: movie about like, but yeah, definitely you gotta see this
Speaker 7: on the big screen. The only other thing out this
Speaker 7: week that I know of that's that's like big enough
Speaker 7: to really I mean it's not it's not gonna be
Speaker 7: an Avatar, but is the There's a new SpongeBob Yes
Speaker 7: movie which I haven't seen, and that's okay. I don't
Speaker 7: think I need to. I think I could go to
Speaker 7: the grave without seeing the next SpongeBob movie.
Speaker 4: It's spun.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know this is a big release, it's
Speaker 1: a big movie, and your kids coming up were about
Speaker 1: that window of time where they were probably this was
Speaker 1: really sort of their wheelhouse of time getting into the
Speaker 1: SpongeBob stuff.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, just the hair laid, but they said definitely still
Speaker 7: got into the SpongeBob stuff. Funny story, my oldest who's
Speaker 7: now like he's twenty four, Oh my god, but I
Speaker 7: took him when he was real, real little to see SpongeBob.
Speaker 7: I think it was too small or too little because
Speaker 7: it got so loud and screaming at the end that
Speaker 7: he started screaming and then threw up. So if that's
Speaker 7: not an allegory to what a SpongeBob movie was, like,
Speaker 7: I mean, he was like three or four, so he
Speaker 7: wasn't like seventeen when this even I have a feeling
Speaker 7: if I took my wife to the Spongeby movie it
Speaker 7: would be a very similar experience, but she's not a fan.
Speaker 1: Well, at least as a sponge I mean, if they
Speaker 1: had a promo itemer you came with one that was
Speaker 1: a big yellow sponge just to sort of like sort
Speaker 1: of the way people would throw toast and so forth,
Speaker 1: like at Rocky Horror Picture Show back in the day.
Speaker 1: Then you could at least clean up the vomit rather
Speaker 1: than leave it to get sticky and stinky later on.
Speaker 7: Well, the worst part is see he had had an
Speaker 7: icy oh you know, one of those red ICs, so
Speaker 7: it looked pretty horrifying. Unfortunately it was empty, so he
Speaker 7: could just go right that.
Speaker 3: Boy.
Speaker 1: See that's good parenting, that's good training. Yes, my mom
Speaker 1: would be so proud of you, tremendous. It really is unbelievable,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure the boys would never be okay with
Speaker 1: or at least two problematic about you sharing the fact
Speaker 1: that this occurred.
Speaker 7: So, oh, well, he's coming over tonight. We're gonna watch
Speaker 7: some Three Stooges episodes and have some billers. But I'll
Speaker 7: remind him that that happened and I told about it
Speaker 7: on the radio.
Speaker 4: There you go. That's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1: Anything else before I switched this to have a probing
Speaker 1: question because I know, deep down you know things anything
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 7: Now, I'm just saying, you know, we've got a week now,
Speaker 7: you have less than a week to watch all of
Speaker 7: your Christmas stuff. You know, whether you're watching or The
Speaker 7: Rink and Bass Vessels or Christmas Story or you know,
Speaker 7: anything else. Take Diehard, Lethal Weapon, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
Speaker 7: You know, whether it's you know, a real Christmas movie
Speaker 7: or sort of a back end Christmas movie. You got
Speaker 7: a week, Get get get the get the TV spulled
Speaker 7: up there.
Speaker 1: Now I found myself and I think we talked. I
Speaker 1: can't remember if it was on the show or off
Speaker 1: the show, but I recently, I believe, in conversation, mentioned
Speaker 1: that ELF was on. It was just starting, and I
Speaker 1: know that I think it's on some streaming service that
Speaker 1: I pay for, so I could watch it at any time,
Speaker 1: just about anywhere that I choose, But I could not
Speaker 1: turn it off once it started. And I don't know
Speaker 1: if I blame, you know, Bob Newhart for this. I
Speaker 1: don't know if I blame Zoe Deschanel. I don't know
Speaker 1: exactly what the deal is. And I've talked to three
Speaker 1: or four other people and they tell me the same thing,
Speaker 1: that it is one of those movies maybe like Polar
Speaker 1: Express that kind of creeps me out. And Sean McMahon
Speaker 1: says that's like one of his favorites. I do you
Speaker 1: have any of these films where if you see it
Speaker 1: someplace on you can't turn it off? Or am I
Speaker 1: the only one who has that sickness.
Speaker 7: I'm sure there's a bunch of movies that are like
Speaker 7: that for me. But I don't swerve in this just
Speaker 7: because I don't watch like like Randon, Like if I
Speaker 7: watch something, I'm watching it through streaming to watch it,
Speaker 7: you know, so you know, it's not like I don't
Speaker 7: swerve into it. But else is one of those that's
Speaker 7: definitely I once did that with Anchorman. That one was
Speaker 7: I put on late at night and I'll just try watching.
Speaker 7: I just kept chuckling and watching the whole thing. I
Speaker 7: did that once with it was the six not sixteen Candles.
Speaker 7: The Breakfast Club. Oh yeah, yeah, that's another one that
Speaker 7: just there's no lull in that to sit there be like, yeah,
Speaker 7: I'll turn it off and'll watch it later. You just
Speaker 7: can't you end up at the end. It's true, pumping
Speaker 7: your fist in at the end zone that's.
Speaker 1: At Farris Bielder's that way for me too, or The Godfather,
Speaker 1: And I've owned those for a commitment.
Speaker 4: Man, it is a commitment.
Speaker 1: It's it's lets you know exactly how productive I am
Speaker 1: when I'm not here doing this. Kevin Carr, I appreciate
Speaker 1: you and the Family Car for allowing you to play
Speaker 1: with me on the radio and the Chubby and Stick
Speaker 1: podcast that people can find maybe the silver Gecko on
Speaker 1: sub stack or fat Guys at the movies. I hope
Speaker 1: you have a good Christmas and maybe we'll check in before.
Speaker 7: New Year's all right, that sounds good to me.
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas. And Joe, would you say, Little Kings are
Speaker 1: Miller's what are you drinking?
Speaker 7: We're drinking Miller Miller highlights because that's of course the
Speaker 7: Champagne of beers.
Speaker 4: Yes, but in watching in Three Students guys, Yeah, well we're.
Speaker 7: Watching three Stuges. I gotta do the Miller time because
Speaker 7: I'm a big fan of Tom Atkins and the Halloween three.
Speaker 7: He drinks Miller beer. It even says it's Miller time
Speaker 7: in one of his movies. I think that's a night
Speaker 7: of the Crease. So it sort of become like a
Speaker 7: joke thing. My son, actually, my other son got me
Speaker 7: like like pint glasses, like like oh nine block, like
Speaker 7: British pint glasses you'd have in a pub. Yeah, so yeah,
Speaker 7: we'll put those on ice and have some have some
Speaker 7: champagne of beers.
Speaker 5: Will they.
Speaker 7: I don't know if that's a good thing or not.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's a great thing. It's good family time with
Speaker 1: a boy. That's a beautiful thing. And we'll live vicariously
Speaker 1: through the life of car Kevin. Thank you, take care
Speaker 1: of yourself and we'll catch up sooner than later.
Speaker 4: And Happy Christmas, all right, we'll talk to later.
Speaker 7: Merry Christmas.
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas. Kevin Carr s for a get go on
Speaker 1: the substack. What about you? Do you have a Christmas
Speaker 1: movie you've got to watch. If it's on, do you
Speaker 1: swerve into it? Can't turn it off even though you
Speaker 1: may stream it at will at some point in time
Speaker 1: Christmas week. If not now, when I ask five, one, three, seven,
Speaker 1: four nine, seven thousand, eight hundred, the big one, you
Speaker 1: can talk back the iHeartRadio app by clicking that microphone.
Speaker 4: We'll give you an update.
Speaker 1: On Alabama Oklahoma and that college football playoff. It's halftime.
Speaker 1: They're nodded at seventeen, so we'll keep you on top
Speaker 1: of that as well. The Polar Express kind of creeps
Speaker 1: me out. There's something visually about it, but I will
Speaker 1: watch it. Christmas Stories one of those in the leg
Speaker 1: lamp and it's Fragi lay Screwage just good. I still
Speaker 1: think Diehard's a Christmas movie. What about you? It's your
Speaker 1: chance to speak your mind on seven hundred wlw arth
Speaker 1: It matters to us here, glads here along whatever you're
Speaker 1: doing five one three, seven, eight hundred, the big one.
Speaker 1: You got the iHeart radio, WAP streaming, or just a
Speaker 1: handy on your device. You want to click on that
Speaker 1: microphone and you can get interactive that way as well
Speaker 1: and leave a message. I'm kind of curious after talking
Speaker 1: to Kevin Carr about Christmas movies, talking to the Shaw
Speaker 1: McMann who's producing tonight of the favorite Christmas films, must
Speaker 1: see Christmas movie kind of scenario. I mean, if not now,
Speaker 1: if not Christmas week to talk about this, then when
Speaker 1: I ask, and you know, I love screw Sean mentioned
Speaker 1: that with Bill Murray, and there's been so many different
Speaker 1: variations of Scrooge, but that one is certainly one of
Speaker 1: the best, at least in my opinion too. I mean,
Speaker 1: you got to love Bill Murray and just about anything
Speaker 1: that guy has done has just been tremendous, and he's
Speaker 1: come back to town sooner than later too. I think
Speaker 1: playing the Brady Diehard's another one. If you are of
Speaker 1: a certain age and it's been replayed and replayed and
Speaker 1: so on time and time again all over pick a
Speaker 1: streaming service, it's there. That's a tremendous one. May not
Speaker 1: be outwardly sort of like el for some of the
Speaker 1: others that are out there. Gremlins is kind of a
Speaker 1: Christmas film that I still think is kind of fun
Speaker 1: and sort of goes along with that. I know the
Speaker 1: pseudo Nice and Nephew are sort of into that. There's
Speaker 1: a bunch of those, and I still love Bad Sanna.
Speaker 1: I mean, it is just one of the best of
Speaker 1: all time. You got Billy, Bob Thornton, Tony Cox, so
Speaker 1: I think has passed away. Lauren Graham's in it. Bernie Mack,
Speaker 1: who's no longer with us, one of the best stand
Speaker 1: ups of all time, and his regular TV show that
Speaker 1: he had the Network show was just tremendous. It was
Speaker 1: simply called Bernie mac Show. Just Bad sand is fantastic
Speaker 1: and it is not necessarily certainly for the children, as
Speaker 1: my buddy Corby used to say. But it's it's strong
Speaker 1: and then I think they did a sequel to that,
Speaker 1: which was kind of nice as well. But it definitely
Speaker 1: is off the proverbial beaten path, as a Lance McAllister
Speaker 1: would say, when it comes to just not necessarily being
Speaker 1: a regular everyday Christmas film five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven,
Speaker 1: eight hundred, the big one, as a Mollie m o
Speaker 1: l Y. Mollie just messaged in Westchester and she got
Speaker 1: through at Sterling Radio on x or Twitter it used
Speaker 1: to be. She said, Edward Scissors Hands. Is that a
Speaker 1: Christmas movie? I don't even I have to think about that.
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess there was. Was there Christmas in
Speaker 1: the film?
Speaker 4: Mollie.
Speaker 1: That's fine. I appreciate that. I'll go along with that.
Speaker 1: I don't remember. I just remember the dude having issues
Speaker 1: with his hands because there were scissors and all and
Speaker 1: everything that sort of went around with that. Still love
Speaker 1: Christmas story. As I mentioned, there's all the usual suspects.
Speaker 4: Is the gift that keeps out given the whole year. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's true. It does it just all year long. It
Speaker 4: really does.
Speaker 1: It's one of the best and some of the others
Speaker 1: that sort of go along with that. I'm trying to
Speaker 1: think of how many different versions of Scrooge that I
Speaker 1: have seen, because I remember as a little kid there
Speaker 1: were a ton of just versions of that movie even
Speaker 1: that had been around seemingly probably early film that goes
Speaker 1: along with that. I like Clause that was good, as
Speaker 1: in Santa Claus somebody else just message here, Oh that's funny,
Speaker 1: they say, Clark, which may or may not be so,
Speaker 1: but it certainly ties into, you know, the whole idea
Speaker 1: of you know, Christmas story and national lampoons and all
Speaker 1: the other stuff that sort of goes along with that.
Speaker 1: He says Black Christmas, which again people are going to
Speaker 1: the dark end of this, but yeah, that's kind of
Speaker 1: fun and it goes on at Christmas, and that I
Speaker 1: think had been remade as well. There's a few of those,
Speaker 1: and at this point, I think since July, and I know,
Speaker 1: during the whole month of July they were showing all
Speaker 1: the Christmas movies and the Hallmark movies and so forth.
Speaker 1: That sort of every year they make a I mean
Speaker 1: boatloads more and then they stream it. And they've had
Speaker 1: so many of the Hallmark type movies of the warm
Speaker 1: and fuzzy Christmas variety, which is really what I guess
Speaker 1: a lot of this is about. In that, you know,
Speaker 1: around Christmas and so forth, it's just always on planes,
Speaker 1: trains and automobiles. I guess I thought that was more
Speaker 1: about Thanksgiving, but I guess that kind of probably qualifies
Speaker 1: with that. I love the old Charlie Brown stuff, you
Speaker 1: know that go along with that.
Speaker 4: You'll suit your eye out, kid, it's true.
Speaker 1: And that that's from the Christmas story and one of
Speaker 1: the best. And and the leg which I think is
Speaker 1: huge overall, here's one and Happy Christmas, which.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna hang on a second. I'm gonna search that
Speaker 4: that's Elm, Elma, Elmo.
Speaker 1: Everybody's playing around with Christmas type stuff, which Elmo I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I'm assuming it's a it's a
Speaker 1: pseudonym of some sort. But the Elmo thing, I just
Speaker 1: think of Elmo or whatever Grandma got run over by
Speaker 1: a reindeer, and that makes me uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: That's I hate that song. I just do.
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people love it, but
Speaker 1: it's just, you know, too much, it's just too much
Speaker 1: and over the top. The Santa Claus is huge. That's
Speaker 1: like a middle nineties movie Bad Moms Christmas. I didn't
Speaker 1: didn't realize they did one of those. It's got Me
Speaker 1: lacunas in it. Kristen Bell as well. Anything Me Lacuna says,
Speaker 1: I'm in. I'm fine, I'm a fan. Jack Frost is
Speaker 1: kind of fun, I guess. And that's Michael Keaton and
Speaker 1: Christmas Carol. There's about one hundred different versions of a
Speaker 1: Christmas Carol and the Muppet Christmas, which how do you
Speaker 1: go wrong with the Muppets? I mean generally speaking, I
Speaker 1: mean Muppets are great, always have been, always will be.
Speaker 4: So there you go.
Speaker 1: There's some Christmas movies on the must see list every year.
Speaker 1: And I've had a few people ping me here about
Speaker 1: die Hard and.
Speaker 3: It's about Christmas.
Speaker 7: Animal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all goes back to that. Thank you, mister mcgommery,
Speaker 1: mister McMahon, that's good. I was just for a shaken
Speaker 1: for just a second here a.
Speaker 4: Lot of people.
Speaker 1: It's about fifty to fifty people pinging me real quick
Speaker 1: here at Stirling Radio on X As far as the
Speaker 1: idea of die Hard being Christmas movie or not, but
Speaker 1: it's set in and around Christmas and it'll be airing
Speaker 1: even if you don't stream it. You'll find at some
Speaker 1: place as people are trying to find their way out
Speaker 1: of the Nakatom skyscraper tower, which I think was in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, as dude tries to come back and save
Speaker 1: his wife and everything along with that. So there you go,
Speaker 1: all right, that news time ten o'clock report straight away.
Speaker 1: Here Bengals in action Sunday in Miami. They'll be warm
Speaker 1: and toasty and hopefully finding a win against a new
Speaker 1: quarterback for the Fish. I'm Sterling, and this is the
Speaker 1: nation station, home of the best Bengals coverage. Seven hundred
Speaker 1: WLW Cincinnati made their way to public view, not as
Speaker 1: many had been ordered by the court, not as many
Speaker 1: as had been promised, and apparently though they have done
Speaker 1: a better job at trying to protect the identities of victims,
Speaker 1: which I think is probably the right thing to do.
Speaker 1: How you doing at Sterling? Friday night weekend full on
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW. Glad you're here, seaman man keeping me
Speaker 1: in line. News coming up about twenty two minutes from now,
Speaker 1: the latest of what's going on all over the place,
Speaker 1: including what matters to us here in the Tri State
Speaker 1: of course, I'm going to go down a list of
Speaker 1: some of the people reportedly in it, with photographs and
Speaker 1: so forth. Former President Clinton, we know Trump had been
Speaker 1: in a current president in some photos as well. Diana Ross,
Speaker 1: Mick Jagger, Michael Jackson, Kevin Spacey, Sarah Ferguson, which is
Speaker 1: the Duchess of York or was the Duchess of York?
Speaker 1: A bunch of other documents, thousands and thousands of them.
Speaker 1: The late Walter Cronkite used to be the sort of
Speaker 1: the news man, if you will, doing the CBS News forever.
Speaker 1: He was a lot of Epstein's stuff. Richard Branson, of course,
Speaker 1: the guy from the Virgin group, Phil Collins who looks
Speaker 1: like the Gerber baby, of course was the guy from Genesis.
Speaker 1: And a bunch of solo work as well, Miny Driver.
Speaker 1: I mean, and that's just some of the people that
Speaker 1: are sort of seen at this point, not a whole
Speaker 1: lot of details, very limited in relation to President Trump
Speaker 1: at that this point. I'm looking through some of this
Speaker 1: now and trying to figure out. I'm just wondering how
Speaker 1: big of a deal this is for you, because a
Speaker 1: lot of people have talked about how big of the deal,
Speaker 1: how much this means, and about going after those who
Speaker 1: had done wrong to innocent underage women girls in the
Speaker 1: sex trafficking of them, forcing them into this thing, effectively
Speaker 1: rape in some of the stuff that's been talked about
Speaker 1: by these victims. And of course Epstein went away to prison.
Speaker 1: Of course Maxwell is in prison, not as bad of
Speaker 1: a prison as she was in after giving more information
Speaker 1: as that wasn't seemingly now getting preferential treatment. I'm just wondering,
Speaker 1: as a person, are you feeling like this is a benefit.
Speaker 1: Is this going to help get to some level of
Speaker 1: justice for these victim Is this what you have wanted
Speaker 1: and what you needed to be released? Obviously they had
Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff to wade through, They've had time
Speaker 1: to do it. It had been talked about for quite
Speaker 1: a while. I'm just wondering, how paramount is this for
Speaker 1: you or is this here we are, week of Christmas
Speaker 1: down on the list of stuff you're concerned about in
Speaker 1: the idea as to you know, if there is going
Speaker 1: to be any greater bit of justice or retribution for
Speaker 1: wrongdoing by individuals who took advantage of and benefited in
Speaker 1: some type of interaction with these young girls, in these
Speaker 1: young women children in some cases, is it has been shown?
Speaker 1: I mean, going back in Palm Beach, Florida police there
Speaker 1: we began investigating in two thousand and five after a
Speaker 1: family of a fourteen year old girl it said she'd
Speaker 1: been molested at his mansion. Epstein's this from the Associated
Speaker 1: Press goes on from there, it gets deep, and I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody is a fan of abuse, of
Speaker 1: rape or molestation, and if so, then there's a sickness
Speaker 1: that somebody has to go along with it. I'm just wondering,
Speaker 1: is this what you want? Are you satisfied with this
Speaker 1: from what you know? Is this what you wanted the
Speaker 1: president in our government to do? Or is this nothing
Speaker 1: at all and more of a show? Five point three
Speaker 1: seven four nine seven thousand, eight hundred, the Big One.
Speaker 1: If you're on the iHeartRadio app, click that microphone. If
Speaker 1: you're streaming or checking out the podcast whatever, you can
Speaker 1: leave a message there. Going along with that, going back
Speaker 1: to July, uh President of course, sort of downplayed this
Speaker 1: and called people who were including his own supporters quote
Speaker 1: unquote weaklings because they had fallen for the Jeffrey Epstein hoax.
Speaker 1: His words, Trump Speaker Johnson at the time, we're not
Speaker 1: able to prevent legislation coming to a vote, although they tried,
Speaker 1: and then that's come back around and Trump says that
Speaker 1: he doesn't care what comes out or whatever else. New
Speaker 1: photos of Clinton apparently in a hot tub. I don't
Speaker 1: know if it shows anything more than that, We'll have
Speaker 1: to wait and see. I'm just curious how much it
Speaker 1: matters to you. I mean, I don't expect anyone to
Speaker 1: end up going to prison for this. I don't see anybody,
Speaker 1: I mean, their career, if they're auted in some fashion,
Speaker 1: it may be affected, it may affect their personal life.
Speaker 1: But I'd be very surprised if we see anyone going
Speaker 1: away for engagement and involvement in solicitation or something at
Speaker 1: this point, as long as it's been and the question
Speaker 1: that I had had for quite some time in the
Speaker 1: midst of this, because this was a lynchpin in a
Speaker 1: lot of people's minds. A lot of people that I
Speaker 1: know friends off the air, as well as friends calling
Speaker 1: the show telling me that this is one of the
Speaker 1: things that was paramount economy, national security, Epstein files, not
Speaker 1: necessarily in that order, and seemingly a whole lot of
Speaker 1: time passed before anything could be done, and you kind
Speaker 1: of wonder with all the redactions, which there's always going
Speaker 1: to bespiracy theorists, but also how much sanitizing and cleaning
Speaker 1: up of those impositions of power in some type of
Speaker 1: authority and of great means to be able to sort
Speaker 1: of silence and shut down a lot of what would
Speaker 1: be their vulnerability with the bad publicity or maybe even
Speaker 1: something more than publicity, being some type of criminal proceeding.
Speaker 1: Aside from that, your chance to be heard is now.
Speaker 1: Let's get to Amelia first with Jim five point three
Speaker 1: seven eight hundred, the Big One on a Friday. Sterling, Jim,
Speaker 1: appreciate you holding. What do you think? Are you happy
Speaker 1: with the Epstein files coming out as we see them
Speaker 1: or are you wanting more, expecting more?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 8: Sterling? I agree with you one percent about I'm just
Speaker 8: I'm just sick of it. And then we have more
Speaker 8: important things to do. But I want to know where
Speaker 8: are the parents to these women and girls that I
Speaker 8: suppose you know they did get, you know, farmed or whatever.
Speaker 8: I don't understand why where they got these girls?
Speaker 9: Uh?
Speaker 8: And where the parents were?
Speaker 1: I think there's a whole lot of trafficking of young
Speaker 1: people that still goes on. You hear better than the
Speaker 1: news fairly regularly, and one would hope in many cases,
Speaker 1: from what I've seen in reports of this, is the
Speaker 1: parents were broken up about this. Either kids disappeared or
Speaker 1: they weren't sure exactly what they were involved in and
Speaker 1: so on. But yeah, I think most parents would be
Speaker 1: pretty upset. I think most parents would try to protect
Speaker 1: their kids from something like this.
Speaker 8: But clearly, yeah, it was like it didn't Yeah, like
Speaker 8: where's where's my daughter at? And she's in the MA somewhere, Like, man,
Speaker 8: I just I'm sick of it, And you're right about
Speaker 8: we got more important things to think about.
Speaker 1: Hold on a seing though, So you think you you
Speaker 1: sort of sound like you're downplaying it a bit. So
Speaker 1: you you mean we have more important stuff to worry
Speaker 1: about or that. I mean, isn't this important to those
Speaker 1: victims and their families and an opportunity for some hopefully
Speaker 1: type of retribution or justice let's call it justice and
Speaker 1: fashion or no vindication. I mean, that's fairly important, I think, right.
Speaker 8: Yeah, Sterling, You're right, they're going to get compensation, these
Speaker 8: these women, Oh girls for what had happened to them,
Speaker 8: and that they're going to get the compensation and whatever
Speaker 8: they were going through. But we need to just compensate
Speaker 8: these victims and then move on to more important things
Speaker 8: in this country, like immigration and you know, terrorism.
Speaker 1: Well, I think they're working on that. I think we're
Speaker 1: big enough country and a big enough law enforcement and
Speaker 1: big enough a judicial system, and with three hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty some million Americans, I think we could probably multitask that, Jim,
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, but you know, I think that
Speaker 1: may be the opinion a lot of people have. Is
Speaker 1: this old tired news? Is this something that matters to you?
Speaker 1: Or is this just a Friday Christmas week dump of
Speaker 1: information that'll sort of all be lost in My real
Speaker 1: opinion here of not that I give you a fake one,
Speaker 1: but at my observation or hallucination I should say, is
Speaker 1: that I think a lot of people are just sort
Speaker 1: of tired of it, which is weird. I don't know
Speaker 1: how passionate you are about it, but I'm kind of curious.
Speaker 1: And certainly it's getting headlines and there are a lot
Speaker 1: of other things going on. I think there probably a
Speaker 1: lot of people are hoping that it becomes tiresome, exhausting
Speaker 1: and that people maybe lose interest or care and then
Speaker 1: it could sort of be lost. It's amazing it's taken
Speaker 1: this long. But when you think of all the people
Speaker 1: that are in all the pictures, and not all of
Speaker 1: them are necessarily obviously, there's not allegations of everyone in
Speaker 1: these photographs doing something more, even the president of course
Speaker 1: apparently that is current President Trump, former President Clinton. Apparently,
Speaker 1: no talk of them doing anything salacious, over the top
Speaker 1: or victimizing anyone. And if they were, my guess is
Speaker 1: that that's already been redacted and taken away to prevent
Speaker 1: any type of exposure for them. I don't want to
Speaker 1: sound like a conspiracy theorist, but if this whole thing
Speaker 1: hasn't stunk of conspiracy and manipulation of power that most
Speaker 1: of us can't imagine like something you'd see in a
Speaker 1: movie that I don't really know what else does I mean? Seriously,
Speaker 1: you get a guy who's sent away for prison for it,
Speaker 1: and then you know, no list all sort of silent,
Speaker 1: and then he supposedly offs himself and there's a you know,
Speaker 1: the glitch in the camera in the video that well,
Speaker 1: you know this just happens that we don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he offed himself, did he really? And now better living
Speaker 1: conditions in a less uh more of a country club prison?
Speaker 1: For Maxwell two, it seems weak to me. Five point
Speaker 1: three seven eight hundred The big one to Michigan Greg
Speaker 1: was Sterling on seven hundred.
Speaker 4: W welw hey, Greg.
Speaker 6: Hey Sterling, thanks for taking my call, mister positive. Sometimes
Speaker 6: you can see me on with Chris Cuomo. Sure, I
Speaker 6: got to ask you, why are we so consumed with
Speaker 6: the Epstein files? In the reason I ask you, is
Speaker 6: it because of transparency? Why what is it going forward
Speaker 6: other than you know, protecting the victims and getting justice
Speaker 6: for the victims. What do we glean? What do we
Speaker 6: learn from it and making this country better? Is it
Speaker 6: all about transparency? Is it about the powerful abusing their
Speaker 6: privilege and powers? If you will? What do we learn?
Speaker 10: Sirling?
Speaker 7: What do we learn? Well?
Speaker 1: I don't know what we learn, but you sort of
Speaker 1: said it. I mean, you're talking about people in positions
Speaker 1: of power and authority and government and means beyond most
Speaker 1: of our grasp and understanding. And you know, you're talking
Speaker 1: about sex and beautiful women and unfortunately women that were
Speaker 1: not even that yet, but children and young girls who
Speaker 1: weren't in a position to really make a decision for
Speaker 1: themselves about this, and seemingly stolen and effectively molested and
Speaker 1: raped in some fashion and traded, and to have one
Speaker 1: of justice for a long time. I think that's a
Speaker 1: fairly viscerally effective thing if you even if I don't
Speaker 1: even have kids, and the thought of that happening to
Speaker 1: anyone makes me sick.
Speaker 4: It's revolting.
Speaker 6: I would certainly agree, Serling, thank you very much for
Speaker 6: taking my call. Everybody, go for your dreams.
Speaker 1: There you go, Greg, I appreciate the calling, and you're
Speaker 1: listening to being a part of the show.
Speaker 4: I'd like to hear her some women on this.
Speaker 1: I'm just kind of curious, and I would imagine the
Speaker 1: feeling is even more passionate and effective if you have kids,
Speaker 1: I would imagine. But even not being someone who has kids,
Speaker 1: I just it's devastating and heartbreaking. Consenting adults is another story,
Speaker 1: But many of these women weren't even women yet. They
Speaker 1: weren't consenting adults. If this had happened and it was
Speaker 1: someone in the neighborhood, someone you knew, a relative of friend,
Speaker 1: somebody in business around town had been doing something with
Speaker 1: a young minor female child here in the Tri State.
Speaker 1: The idea of law enforcement and the judiciary getting involved
Speaker 1: in prosecuting and having some severe consequences for those who
Speaker 1: were in the business of providing access and whisking away
Speaker 1: these young women, young girls and somehow facilitating the interaction
Speaker 1: that turned into something more. I think most of us
Speaker 1: would want some type of penalty, some type of something,
Speaker 1: and oftentimes with consenting adults making the decision in the
Speaker 1: idea of prostitution, you know, do you go after the pimp,
Speaker 1: do you go after the john? Do you go after
Speaker 1: the prostitute? These were women who weren't even of age
Speaker 1: to be consenting in a consensual relationship with someone that
Speaker 1: was their age. If I went three, seven, nine, eight hundred,
Speaker 1: the big one, this is a colder on I believe
Speaker 1: was sterling on seven hundred WLW is that correct?
Speaker 4: Colder on?
Speaker 3: Well, it's cold on.
Speaker 11: And last time I a lot of people called me Lucy.
Speaker 3: Last time I called that, you had a big problem.
Speaker 11: You couldn't get over my name Lucy, and you didn't
Speaker 11: even believe that was my real name.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean people don't believe my name Sterling, So
Speaker 1: I'm not here to make fun of your name. I
Speaker 1: just wanted to make sure I called you by the
Speaker 1: right name.
Speaker 3: So no, it's cold cold on, cold on, weier cold on.
Speaker 4: All right, well cold on What do you want?
Speaker 11: Uh, well, what you were just talking about.
Speaker 5: You better have press to convict people of rape.
Speaker 11: Yeah, so, I mean if you don't, you can't move forward.
Speaker 11: And what they released doesn't show a lot of proof.
Speaker 3: I don't know what they have.
Speaker 11: But anyway, that was that was back when it was.
Speaker 11: But I just wanted to make a comment from the
Speaker 11: skating rinks down in Cincinnati Elm Street Positive. They have
Speaker 11: gigos that you can rent go in there and do
Speaker 11: what you want. And I wouldn't they would have guidelines
Speaker 11: on what type of people that they would allow to
Speaker 11: go in there, because some of the people just don't
Speaker 11: look right in there.
Speaker 4: What have you been in there? Have you been doing
Speaker 4: things inside.
Speaker 11: These well that's one of the things. They would allow
Speaker 11: just one person or two people or even three, right.
Speaker 1: So what do you think is going on in there?
Speaker 1: I mean, what are you inferring that's going on? Have
Speaker 1: you been down there and witness something some type of
Speaker 1: weird stuff happen.
Speaker 3: Just don't look right.
Speaker 11: The different classes of people that they let in.
Speaker 4: What does that mean different?
Speaker 1: Wait minute, So you're saying a public event on Elm
Speaker 1: with the recently moved, newly roped the located ice skating drinks,
Speaker 1: you say who should be allowed and who not?
Speaker 11: If you're going to make a judgment on yes, I
Speaker 11: think they should have restrictions because some of the people
Speaker 11: just don't look like they belong on.
Speaker 4: What does that mean? Who would belong and who would not?
Speaker 11: Well, you can take it as far as you want.
Speaker 1: No, I'm asking you. You said it, So what do
Speaker 1: you mean who doesn't belong?
Speaker 4: What I belong?
Speaker 10: Up?
Speaker 11: The skin color?
Speaker 4: Skin color? So you think it's about race?
Speaker 3: You could know you.
Speaker 1: You said it, you brought it up. I'm asking you.
Speaker 1: Don't tell me what I can do. You said people
Speaker 1: don't belong, who doesn't belong?
Speaker 3: And why?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 11: Yeah, certain r.
Speaker 4: So you're a racist. You're saying that what white people
Speaker 4: shouldn't be there.
Speaker 10: I don't want to hurt nobody.
Speaker 1: So you're saying it should only be for what dark
Speaker 1: skinned people, light skinned people?
Speaker 6: What?
Speaker 5: Well, I think there should be restrictions.
Speaker 4: Okay, what should the restrictions be?
Speaker 11: And you took it to the base of skin cause.
Speaker 4: You said it.
Speaker 1: I did not know you did. You can no, I'm
Speaker 1: asking you. You're talking in circles. Don't say something and
Speaker 1: then you are aren't ballsy enough to actually admit.
Speaker 4: What you said?
Speaker 11: Yes, just go with the skin color.
Speaker 4: Then, so you're a racist? Do you want only white
Speaker 4: people only? Black people? Brown people?
Speaker 11: Don't want to I don't want to hurt anybody because
Speaker 11: of their.
Speaker 1: Color, and yet you want to somehow discriminate you.
Speaker 11: You seem to out broader expand the definition of racist.
Speaker 11: It's too easily done nowadays.
Speaker 1: I mean, you said that people of different skin colors
Speaker 1: should not be allowed in those ways.
Speaker 4: So then, so what skin color? You're the racist, not me.
Speaker 1: You brought it up, you called me and that was
Speaker 1: the first thing that fell out of your mouth about
Speaker 1: the ice skating rink.
Speaker 11: Well, let me ask you this. How many institutions are
Speaker 11: all black only?
Speaker 4: What does that mean? Institution?
Speaker 3: Learning centers, learning centers?
Speaker 1: So you're saying it should be a whites only or
Speaker 1: a black slone. I don't Yeah, that's right. So you
Speaker 1: just want to separate. You are you're clearly a racist.
Speaker 8: No, I don't want to hurt nobody.
Speaker 1: I didn't say anything about hurting anybody. But you clearly
Speaker 1: seem to be.
Speaker 4: A race definition of a racist.
Speaker 5: That's a definition of a racist. Look at up.
Speaker 4: Are you a separatist?
Speaker 7: Then?
Speaker 4: What are you?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean you're just you're just talking in circles and
Speaker 1: not willing to answer anything and just basically propagating. Heye,
Speaker 1: it's It's ridiculous and painful. Maybe you shouldn't leave the house.
Speaker 1: Maybe you shouldn't be allowed to play with others or
Speaker 1: keep your thoughts to yourself.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Let's get Shawn in hopefully more positive than deer Park Sewan.
Speaker 1: You're sterling on the big one. What about the Epstein
Speaker 1: files or apparently separating people on the ice?
Speaker 5: Good lord, that's a hard one to follow.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that. It's like
Speaker 1: Russian your leg. You answered the phone. You never know
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get.
Speaker 5: Last time I talked to you, I cussed right off
Speaker 5: the bat and you read button me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So don't do that. Keep it clean.
Speaker 5: I'm not going to do it. I'm not gonna do it.
Speaker 4: Okay, you got about two minutes.
Speaker 5: What do you have two minutes.
Speaker 12: I'm most upset about the Kennedy Center renaming, which seems
Speaker 12: absolutely ridiculous to me.
Speaker 5: Your thoughts, John F. Kennedy Center, Well.
Speaker 1: I think it was it now the Kennedy Trump Center
Speaker 1: or Trump Kennedy Center.
Speaker 5: Trump, It's the Trump the Donald Trump Kennedy Center.
Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, well, I mean I'm sure the name will
Speaker 1: be at some point down the line. Again, I thought
Speaker 1: usually didn't put people's names on stuff until they had
Speaker 1: left this mortal world and then something.
Speaker 5: You don't do it yourself, right.
Speaker 1: Well, apparently times are different now. So I mean, I
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. I'm not really concerned about that.
Speaker 1: Of all the other stuff that's gone on in the world.
Speaker 1: That's small potatoes personally, I mean know what.
Speaker 12: I mean, But I think it's a tiny black spot
Speaker 12: on a potato that can ruin the whole box.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that could very well.
Speaker 5: As someone of Irish heritage.
Speaker 1: That hit some I totally get that. Seany disrespect. I
Speaker 1: didn't change the name. I thought it was fine the
Speaker 1: way it was.
Speaker 12: I agree, yeah, yeah, but anyway, get your break. I
Speaker 12: love listening to you.
Speaker 4: Well, I appreciate you listening. Sean.
Speaker 1: Thanks all right, we'll come back and we'll reevaluate a
Speaker 1: lot of things and try to make sense of the
Speaker 1: world we're living in. Ten thirty report straight away. It's
Speaker 1: a Friday night, Sterling, glad you're here. More in the
Speaker 1: Epstein Files. We'll talk holiday Christmas stuff, and it's a
Speaker 1: whole lot more on the Nation Station seven hundred ULW.
Speaker 4: Friday night, hanging.
Speaker 1: Out at the Nation Station, seven hundred WLW Sean McMahon,
Speaker 1: Mister McMahon, I'd like to call him on the board.
Speaker 1: Keeping us on time and in line as best as possible.
Speaker 1: Travis Laird with news in about twenty two minutes. An
Speaker 1: update on everything happening in the Tri State and Planet
Speaker 1: Earth Epstein Files out, at least in parts. Do you
Speaker 1: care you digging through the troves of information, redacted data
Speaker 1: and photographs looking for petophiles, rapist those taking advantage. You're
Speaker 1: just stars hanging out with other stars, and high priority
Speaker 1: type of high level people and so on, and well
Speaker 1: there'll be justice.
Speaker 4: I have questions.
Speaker 1: Five point three seven four nine, seven eight hundred the
Speaker 1: Big One also Mega millions tonight. It's just a paltry
Speaker 1: ninety million dollars up for grabs. If you take the
Speaker 1: annuity with that drawing I believe eleven o'clock less than
Speaker 1: an hour away. And if you take that cash money option,
Speaker 1: which some people recommend, forty point eight million dollars, I
Speaker 1: could get by on that with simple interest. You just
Speaker 1: see me laughing maniacally. As I took a simple interest
Speaker 1: on the savings account all the way to the bank,
Speaker 1: I'd be living large. And the one that everyone is
Speaker 1: into tomorrow is the billion and a a half dollar
Speaker 1: estimated powerball jackpot. I'm gonna say that again, one billion,
Speaker 1: five hundred million dollars cashed out, it'd be six hundred
Speaker 1: and eighty nine million, three hundred thousand. Again, hard to
Speaker 1: survive on that. I would imagine, are you in it
Speaker 1: to win it? A lot of people looking to I
Speaker 1: would imagine those machines are printing tickets fairly quickly as
Speaker 1: people are out and about doing a whole lot of
Speaker 1: shopping and getting into the festive season this Christmas time.
Speaker 1: Hanukah in full effect. Got quandta comment if as well,
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken. Five one, three, seven four nine
Speaker 1: seven thousand, eight hundred, the Big One your chance to
Speaker 1: get interactive. And also I'll talk about the legal weed
Speaker 1: thing too, which apparently now the legal drinks that have
Speaker 1: been sort of in that in between the THHC beverage
Speaker 1: is not gonna be okay anymore. I don't know why
Speaker 1: it's so hard, and i'll Andre here in just a second,
Speaker 1: Andre hang with me, and then a room for you
Speaker 1: five point three seven four nine seven eight hundred, the
Speaker 1: big one. I don't know why this has been so difficult.
Speaker 1: Ohioan's voted fifty seven to fifty eight percent said yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, legalize it, common sense. And then there's the
Speaker 1: carve out in the farm build that left the intoxicating hemp.
Speaker 1: And you had some retailers, the vast majority, doing it
Speaker 1: the right way, and a handful of them not doing
Speaker 1: it right, and some of those products being dispensed looking
Speaker 1: like candy and other type of maca packaging. It's sort
Speaker 1: of for I guess a brand awareness for one of
Speaker 1: a better way to describe it. Why not make the
Speaker 1: rule that it had to be twenty one and older
Speaker 1: for anybody, period, and the same thing with the beverage,
Speaker 1: and then from there, if there was a retailer who
Speaker 1: failed to follow through. You shut their ass down. And
Speaker 1: if parents aren't keeping track of their weed just like
Speaker 1: their drinks or their firearms, then you go after them
Speaker 1: for not being responsible. Now you've got businesses like fifty
Speaker 1: West and others that are now going to try to
Speaker 1: figure out how to correct a revenue stream as they've
Speaker 1: been doing it is what they thought was legal for However,
Speaker 1: long now five point three seven four nine seven eight hundred,
Speaker 1: the big one, your chance to get interactive on a
Speaker 1: Friday ant. There's lots going on, Leven and Andrea. I
Speaker 1: appreciate your patience and holding.
Speaker 7: How are you?
Speaker 4: How's everything this fine fire Friday night.
Speaker 9: I'm doing pretty good for a Friday. I mean, I
Speaker 9: can't complain, you know. I'm sitting here, I'm listening to you,
Speaker 9: to you on the radio.
Speaker 4: And I appreciate that.
Speaker 9: Two things burst off to college who was talking about
Speaker 9: the skating ring and people being different or looking different
Speaker 9: or whatever.
Speaker 10: It was different to him to.
Speaker 4: Him right here was the right, oh, clearly blank period yep.
Speaker 9: He was clearly erasist ye and weether he was talking
Speaker 9: about white black with candy stripe.
Speaker 10: He was steel erased.
Speaker 9: No matter what I agree, you know, so he but
Speaker 9: he dug He dug his own hole for that one.
Speaker 4: I was just afraid.
Speaker 1: I was afraid Andre, that I was going to be
Speaker 1: I just won't even to say it because he was
Speaker 1: saying everything but it and then tried to turn it
Speaker 1: on me. And I try very hard not to be
Speaker 1: uh mean to people, because you know I can be.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm trying to be a better person.
Speaker 13: Andre, Sometimes you got to be mean to people. Yeah,
Speaker 13: sometimes you gotta be mean. And everywhere where that you
Speaker 13: was sad to me. He wouldn't come out and say
Speaker 13: it for it, So I mean, you did it, but
Speaker 13: you just didn't see any words.
Speaker 9: Yeah, he man, he hit racism. Yep, you know what
Speaker 9: type of people go down there and looking at it?
Speaker 9: See what what color the people.
Speaker 1: Are to come the only thing I try to do,
Speaker 1: and I think reason in the part play that's right.
Speaker 1: I haven't been to Elm Street to skate yet. The
Speaker 1: last time I went was still on Fountain Square. This
Speaker 1: is the first year since its switched. And I am
Speaker 1: not a great skater, and the girl I was with,
Speaker 1: I'm real good at going fast and straight and I
Speaker 1: try to turn and then I become one with the ice.
Speaker 1: So I got to pick my spots. I might need
Speaker 1: one of those nice handied anty places to sit on
Speaker 1: the side and watch the people who can skate skate,
Speaker 1: But that's just me.
Speaker 9: That that would be me too, because I can't skate.
Speaker 9: I sill o can't ice skate.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 9: I used to go ice skating when I was in
Speaker 9: uh like junior high school.
Speaker 4: Sure, but and I got a little bit too old
Speaker 4: for that.
Speaker 9: Now.
Speaker 1: Well that's all right, there's no it's never too late,
Speaker 1: but you know, you gotta I just try to pick
Speaker 1: my spots. So if I'm gonna make a mess of myself,
Speaker 1: I try to make.
Speaker 3: A private maybe it maybe it work fin hours, that's correct.
Speaker 9: The other thing I was I was calling you about
Speaker 9: is the Epstein thing.
Speaker 4: Yes, you know you got people calling.
Speaker 9: And saying they tired of hearing about it, and this,
Speaker 9: that and the other. I got a dark yep. I
Speaker 9: ain't gonna never be tired of hearing about it, because
Speaker 9: if you do that to my daughter, I'll be the
Speaker 9: problems in it.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I understand that it's.
Speaker 9: Gonna be some problems in it. I ain't gonna never
Speaker 9: be tired of hearing about it because this is this
Speaker 9: is what this world is about today. Anyway. It's a mean,
Speaker 9: send courted world that we're living in, and this type
Speaker 9: of thing is not allowed, you know, not in my world.
Speaker 13: You mess with my daughter, you met with any one
Speaker 13: of my kids, my daughters, one of my friend we
Speaker 13: gonna have the problem.
Speaker 4: I think most people are of that feeling.
Speaker 1: And my guess is this that these powerful, rich, beyond
Speaker 1: imagination people who were involved in this. I don't mean
Speaker 1: the ones who were socializing and trying to get their
Speaker 1: money straight, because apparently this Epstein guy was somehow helping
Speaker 1: with people in their finances.
Speaker 4: I don't know how that.
Speaker 1: Was, but uh, those that were there to take advantage
Speaker 1: of and to to get together in some type of
Speaker 1: intimate fashion with these non age of consent girls. My
Speaker 1: guess is that if it were their kids, they'd have
Speaker 1: a different view. Is rather than somebody else's child that
Speaker 1: they were going to take it and basically pray upon.
Speaker 9: You know, that's the question I was going to ask
Speaker 9: you did have any kids.
Speaker 1: I'd have to look that up. I don't know that's
Speaker 1: a solid question I would think by.
Speaker 13: Now, because that would be a question that I have
Speaker 13: to say, Okay, where did that.
Speaker 7: Was your daughter?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you're.
Speaker 9: Doing it to somebody else's young daughter. Where is it
Speaker 9: with your daughter?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: He did not have children, at least according to uh Wikipedia,
Speaker 1: if you can trust that. I'm looking in a few
Speaker 1: other places too while we talk, Andre, So, I don't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's just.
Speaker 9: I mean it was I mean, anybody that was involved
Speaker 9: in it.
Speaker 7: What about your daughter?
Speaker 9: Anybody that was involved? Did you have daughters? Would you
Speaker 9: would you consent to a grown man of the sex
Speaker 9: with your young daughter.
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody who is of any level of
Speaker 1: decency as a human being would be okay with it.
Speaker 1: But there seems to be a very slippery slope. And
Speaker 1: it just a generation or two ago. How many songs
Speaker 1: in popular music were about girls at sixteen or somewhere
Speaker 1: in that window of age, you know, being hot and
Speaker 1: so on. And that is no longer considered to be
Speaker 1: acceptable publicly and talked about, but it seemed to be
Speaker 1: pretty common, Uh, at least go ahead.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. No, No, that's all I have to you. No,
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I'm just I'm.
Speaker 9: Just so, I'm just so frustrated because you have people
Speaker 9: calling in talking about we need to just move on. No,
Speaker 9: we don't need to move on. We need to figure
Speaker 9: out what's going on, why it's going on, and because
Speaker 9: here here's the thing. I say this. If it was
Speaker 9: my daughter and I did come to them, I'm going
Speaker 9: to jail. But I'm gonna go to jail because I
Speaker 9: get something.
Speaker 10: To protect my kids.
Speaker 4: Yep, I get that protect my kids now.
Speaker 9: And here's that I stand up in the middle of
Speaker 9: a person and tell everybody why.
Speaker 4: I'm here, yeah, and and be okay.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I I could hang my head,
Speaker 1: you know, stand tall and say, you know what I
Speaker 1: did what I needed to do.
Speaker 4: I'm not jeal to find it. I rationalizing it.
Speaker 1: And clearly the courts and listen, everything's about money, you
Speaker 1: know it.
Speaker 4: I know it.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that if they want to be honest about it,
Speaker 1: and if you have power and you're able to manipulate things,
Speaker 1: the courts and justice and retribution of that fashion very rarely,
Speaker 1: if ever comes for those who are of the level
Speaker 1: a lot of these people are. And it seems fairly
Speaker 1: obvious that some of the delays and everything about it,
Speaker 1: and then the denials and well, it was it's a hoax.
Speaker 1: It wasn't a hoax when it was helping somebody get elected, right,
Speaker 1: you know. And and that whether you're a fan or
Speaker 1: not a fan, you know, I support anybody who occupies
Speaker 1: the office of presidency. But let's just be honest and
Speaker 1: call it what it is, and that is the way
Speaker 1: it goes. Andre, I appreciate the call man, Thank you
Speaker 1: for listening. I hope to call again. Yes, sir, I
Speaker 1: will take care of yourself, all right, Thank you, Andre.
Speaker 1: To Westside and Ray then Alan, And where are the
Speaker 1: women on this? I'd like to think that there are
Speaker 1: some women that are passionate about and have an opinion
Speaker 1: about this Epstein thing and these files being released?
Speaker 4: Ray, what's up? What do you know? You're stirling on
Speaker 4: the big one.
Speaker 3: Hey.
Speaker 14: The only point I'm bringing up is I got a
Speaker 14: pair of daughters.
Speaker 3: My daughter hit twenty two or twenty one, and that
Speaker 3: of the blue.
Speaker 14: Is she said, we were just too damned afraid of
Speaker 14: you to do something wrong. What's going on? What's going
Speaker 14: on is.
Speaker 3: That these girls are vulnerable.
Speaker 14: You see the Coventry House commercials on TV. These are
Speaker 14: the girls that Gazelle was recruiting. These women were already
Speaker 14: on the street, the ones that really need to be
Speaker 14: cared about. I mean, I care about them. Everybody has
Speaker 14: empathy for that kind of stuff. But the other part
Speaker 14: that nobody's paying attention to is how many.
Speaker 3: Of the illegal kids that are three.
Speaker 14: And five and seven that are coming across the southern
Speaker 14: border they have zero controllers, that they have zero ability
Speaker 14: to control what they are, where.
Speaker 3: They are or anything else.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we're talking about the most most vulnerable
Speaker 1: people and even those now with the children that have
Speaker 1: been a part of this and not letting, you know,
Speaker 1: people sort of inspect and see exactly how they're being housed.
Speaker 1: At this point as a concern too, because anytime you're
Speaker 1: in an institutionalized housing situation, whether it's you know, transitional
Speaker 1: before being you know, sent out of the country or
Speaker 1: anywhere else, you got to have eyes and ears and
Speaker 1: observation because people take advantage. And that's just the way
Speaker 1: it has been always as long as I think humans
Speaker 1: have been around.
Speaker 14: This is why I'm tringing up the deal. Okays Seem's
Speaker 14: a big important name, and it's because they want to
Speaker 14: look for somebody like Trump or the prints over in England.
Speaker 3: Or corner embarrassed somebody or yeah.
Speaker 14: But the point is they want to do it for
Speaker 14: that reason. They don't want to do it to really
Speaker 14: care about the girls. The reality and Harrel looking for
Speaker 14: nailing the Johns. This that really gets ignored is all
Speaker 14: the little kids that were imported and being abused by
Speaker 14: being shipped.
Speaker 3: All over the country.
Speaker 1: Well, the problem in general when you have people that
Speaker 1: are here here illegally and you know, is this that
Speaker 1: there is a shadow economy and people are manipulated and
Speaker 1: abused and taken advantage of, whether it's by employers, by
Speaker 1: people that are looking to you know, I'll call them
Speaker 1: on you if you don't do this. And and then
Speaker 1: if you have children, there's there's no path you know,
Speaker 1: to get safety, to get security or otherwise. And here's
Speaker 1: the thing we're talking about, and you mentioned the young
Speaker 1: girl thing and children, they're the most vulnerable and young
Speaker 1: women that are out there often with bus stations or
Speaker 1: whatever else. Stereotypically, whether it's a guy who's a street
Speaker 1: level hotel, hotel motel kind of pimp scenario, will pick
Speaker 1: up these vulnerable young people, men and boys and girls
Speaker 1: and put them in situations to proper freem go ahead.
Speaker 14: The reason those girls are at those bus stations, as
Speaker 14: you described, they didn't have a daddy that they were
Speaker 14: damn well afraid of, or.
Speaker 1: They were afraid and left for other reasons, whether it's
Speaker 1: because of drug abuse or although I mean, there's a
Speaker 1: whole host of reasons, right, I mean, it's not.
Speaker 14: The point was they didn't have they didn't have strong
Speaker 14: parents that turned around and kept them in a stable home.
Speaker 4: In some cases, I'm getting no.
Speaker 1: I think in some cases, I think a blanket statement
Speaker 1: like that's unfair, because there are some that were victimized
Speaker 1: at home and had nowhere else to go and then
Speaker 1: ended up on the street and got violated and abused again,
Speaker 1: and it happens every day.
Speaker 14: No, that that could be. But I'm saying that as
Speaker 14: a blanket rule, but much moreger quantity are the ones
Speaker 14: that came across the southern borders.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I don't know if that's true
Speaker 1: or not, but certainly, if you can't have any of.
Speaker 14: Your fifty thousand kids, Epstein and his way and his
Speaker 14: girlfriend couldn't recruit that.
Speaker 4: Many, I'm not I'm not talking about it. No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: As an apple to an orange thing, I'm simply saying
Speaker 1: that if you do not have any record of an individual,
Speaker 1: they do not exist. They do not have paper, right,
Speaker 1: some type of documents. You have no record, You have nothing.
Speaker 1: Where they're in the city them, the vulnerability in the
Speaker 1: ability by anyone who wants to take advantage of them
Speaker 1: is huge, which goes to your point of those here illegally.
Speaker 1: But the bottom line is people go missing all the time.
Speaker 1: I've talked to people from the FBI, those who deal
Speaker 1: with missing children, those who are looking to find what
Speaker 1: was their child at one point or another, and even
Speaker 1: have had some so called you know, a lot lizards
Speaker 1: and otherwise who got caught up in it in one
Speaker 1: fashion or another, and then they're stuck in that life
Speaker 1: because people think they're less than trash. And that's a
Speaker 1: horrible bad place to be.
Speaker 14: Did you see the story of the woman that turned
Speaker 14: around and got picked up down in the villages yesterday?
Speaker 4: No? No, I don't. I may have missed that she
Speaker 4: kidnapped her three year old daughter.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, wait a minute, you mean the one the
Speaker 1: custodial case, right, and the kids like it's like thirty
Speaker 1: five years old or something, right, Yeah, yeah, Well, no,
Speaker 1: the kid now forty five thirty five.
Speaker 14: Yeah, she kidnapped her daughter, and they manage a finally
Speaker 14: finder the case actually won't off of the FBI.
Speaker 3: They gave up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they had the age.
Speaker 1: They used the age progression on the picture and everything else,
Speaker 1: and they were able to finger. And I know that
Speaker 1: the daughter was trying to navigate that from what I read.
Speaker 1: Also because she's trying to figure out, you know, the
Speaker 1: balance between dad who she's not had and realizing she's
Speaker 1: not who she thought she was and a mom who's
Speaker 1: been there for even though we took her when or
Speaker 1: she took her when she shouldn't have. That's a tough thing, right,
Speaker 1: Great talking to you man against the long time. I
Speaker 1: hope you have a great night and a good holiday.
Speaker 3: Brother.
Speaker 4: Take care of yourself, all right. See three and a
Speaker 4: half four is my math.
Speaker 1: Right, let's try to get one or two more here
Speaker 1: before the news we got time, so I didn't mean
Speaker 1: to be premature, but I want to be fair to
Speaker 1: to Norwood and Allan and then Mark was sterling on
Speaker 1: the big one. You got about a minute each. I
Speaker 1: think we can do this, maybe two minutes each. Go ahead,
Speaker 1: what do you have Alan, Alan?
Speaker 5: I got Andre.
Speaker 10: I got Andre. He's got to blame the Beatles on
Speaker 10: that one. And she was just seventeen. And you know
Speaker 10: what I mean, you know that's just goes with that. Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 4: Mean nothing stray cats as.
Speaker 3: Well, Andre.
Speaker 10: But the Goldstein guy, yeah, Epstein, Yeah, Epstein whatever.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, that's like saying Alan or Mark or Steve,
Speaker 1: you're not the same guy, right.
Speaker 10: Well that's actually my name Mark.
Speaker 3: But anyway, all right, what do you have?
Speaker 10: But well, you know, the let's get off the sex stuff.
Speaker 10: That's uh, you know. But speaking of that that lottery thing,
Speaker 10: you noticed all the billion dollar lottery winners are a California.
Speaker 10: I think that thing's rigged to pay off their taxes.
Speaker 1: You sound like my mom's like it's all fixed. I's like,
Speaker 1: I don't think it's fixed. I think that that would.
Speaker 9: Get this thing.
Speaker 10: I am you that. No, I'm teasing, but I'm serious.
Speaker 10: It's like, I think it's rigged.
Speaker 15: So that what's his name, the the governor, the mayor,
Speaker 15: the guy governor California, the guy with Yeah, he's he's.
Speaker 3: A mayor, he's a governor.
Speaker 15: There is different I know, there's well not in California.
Speaker 10: I lived there and they can't govern, so it's enterchanging.
Speaker 1: It's still like what the fifth or fourth largest economy
Speaker 1: on planet Earth, aside.
Speaker 10: They're ruining it.
Speaker 1: I have friends there that love it, so I mean,
Speaker 1: I think other than the taxes, which nobody will usually.
Speaker 15: Santa Monic a girl who grew up there in the
Speaker 15: Golden era, and when we moved back here, and it
Speaker 15: was like she was flying back and forth, it was
Speaker 15: like they're ruining it there.
Speaker 10: It's getting worse, it's getting worse, and it's it's it's
Speaker 10: awful that the only thing they're good is the weather.
Speaker 4: Now, well, i'll take the weather right about now, that's
Speaker 4: for sure.
Speaker 10: Exactly exactly. But I'm telling you it's just they've ruined it,
Speaker 10: and I think they're rigging it to pay it, pay
Speaker 10: the taxes and to pay off all the dead.
Speaker 1: I'm not in control of what Alan's saying. And I
Speaker 1: appreciate the call, re Mark as he called himself. I
Speaker 1: don't know which is on the screen it said Alan,
Speaker 1: but either way, I appreciate the call, and you're listening.
Speaker 1: But I got to say that I think if there
Speaker 1: was something up to no good about it being fixed,
Speaker 1: it would get out there's too much money at stake
Speaker 1: and too many parties across the country that are taking
Speaker 1: part in these big lotto things. All I know is
Speaker 1: I could live off the simple interest. And I'm bewildered
Speaker 1: by how so many of these people who win these
Speaker 1: big lottos end up broke and like no time. That
Speaker 1: is bewildering to me. I mean, you'd have to work
Speaker 1: really hard to spend that money. To Montford Heights, Mark
Speaker 1: was sterling on the big one.
Speaker 5: What do you have brother, Hey Stirling, Hey, I'm a
Speaker 5: licensed cosmetologist.
Speaker 4: Okay, And.
Speaker 5: Every year, i mean we get alerts or training and
Speaker 5: I'm sure every other state city does if there's a
Speaker 5: big event, super Bowl, All Star Game. But that's where
Speaker 5: they bring these young girls in absolutely and they and
Speaker 5: they bring them in to these i'll say beauty schools to.
Speaker 3: Have them made up.
Speaker 5: Oh really and yeah, and to look good at minimal cost.
Speaker 4: That makes sense.
Speaker 5: And yeah, and that's that's something that the schools are
Speaker 5: aware of, depending on where the event is. And uh,
Speaker 5: and then they put them out there and they're looking
Speaker 5: pretty and just out there marketed.
Speaker 1: It's it's a tough thing. I mean, you'd hope it's
Speaker 1: not minor children. I'm a view of you that generally
Speaker 1: consenting adults, then it's none of my business. But when
Speaker 1: you're talking about kids who should not and do not
Speaker 1: have a say in that type of thing, and it's
Speaker 1: a whole other layer of ugliness.
Speaker 5: Well, you know, I mean, you know, as far as
Speaker 5: the trafficking of kids, you know, the penalty should be
Speaker 5: very severe.
Speaker 4: I agree.
Speaker 3: Where where the.
Speaker 5: Point where you know these traffickers say, I don't want
Speaker 5: that to happen to me.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And on the other side is that there's obviously that
Speaker 1: much demand for people who want to get with effectively
Speaker 1: young children, and that's beyond comprehension too. Mark, I'm against
Speaker 1: a long time. I appreciate the calling the insight there.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that about the beauty school or cosmetology
Speaker 1: schools and so forth too. News straightaway Travis Lairer has
Speaker 1: your eleven o'clock report. More sterling coming up, including also
Speaker 1: some conversation with Morgan Fox from Normal about this change
Speaker 1: and the legal weed in the state of Ohio. Hang
Speaker 1: Out home of the Bengals. They play here best Bengal
Speaker 1: coverage seven hundred WLW Cincinnati Fine allOur together this fine
Speaker 1: Friday night in the distance, Red Eye Radio, how you
Speaker 1: doing at Sterling hanging around Nation Station seven hundred WLW
Speaker 1: Football Bengals on the road, Joe Burrow at All South
Speaker 1: Florida Miami Way to take on those fishs. It'll be warm,
Speaker 1: it'll be summer esque, and it'll feel here to be
Speaker 1: like almost forty. Which has been a weird week. This
Speaker 1: is a roller coaster ride of weather. In the last
Speaker 1: seven days, it's been snow and cold, wicked cold, near
Speaker 1: fifty tomorrow. Lot's happening. What's happening with you? Sean McMahon's
Speaker 1: producing later on. Morgan Fox joined us earlier from normal,
Speaker 1: and we'll talk to him about the change in the
Speaker 1: intoxicating hemp and the rules for those beverages with THC
Speaker 1: in them. Of course, also in the change in the
Speaker 1: scheduling of cannabis, marijuana, whatever you want to call it,
Speaker 1: the ganja, the sticky icky, there's so many different names,
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be changing with an executive order from
Speaker 1: the same level as it's been talked about now, is
Speaker 1: say heroin and cocaine just something else more like booze
Speaker 1: and a handful of other things which apparently will have
Speaker 1: some effect on business and research to some extent. But
Speaker 1: Morgan Fox can share more details on that. That's coming
Speaker 1: up after your eleven thirty report. In the meantime, I
Speaker 1: am kind of curious about a few things and I'll
Speaker 1: sort of lay them out here and sooner than later.
Speaker 1: Jake Paul fighting again with Sean McMahon was like, he's
Speaker 1: doing it again. Yeah, I done it again. I think
Speaker 1: it's on Netflix. He he and Anthony Joshua like heavyweight fight.
Speaker 1: We'll see how that goes. Super fight? Is it to describe?
Speaker 1: So if we get a result, are the servers going
Speaker 1: to crash again? Yeah, that's what they did last year.
Speaker 1: We were here at the same time doing the show,
Speaker 1: working together. I remember that I couldn't get it on
Speaker 1: any of these screens in here, and you were in
Speaker 1: there fighting with it, and I go in there during
Speaker 1: the break and You're like, I can't see it.
Speaker 4: I'm like, what are you looking at?
Speaker 16: I remember I drove home, like the fight finally started,
Speaker 16: and I was driving home and I really wasn't that
Speaker 16: curious about it. I was hoping to see Mike Tyson
Speaker 16: just have one more, you know, one more shot at glory.
Speaker 4: And to maybe get a good meme out of it.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 16: But I got home and like the fight was over,
Speaker 16: and I want to say, my brother was home or something,
Speaker 16: and they were like, yeah, nothing happened, Like what do
Speaker 16: you mean nothing happened?
Speaker 4: Like literally nothing happened.
Speaker 16: Like they didn't really do anything for like seven rounds,
Speaker 16: like really, like not even an hour later, you know,
Speaker 16: social media being as quick as it is, Just like
Speaker 16: that was the worst thing I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 4: It was hard to watch.
Speaker 1: And I did go home and have a mandatory viewing
Speaker 1: myself on that, and it was it was a different
Speaker 1: and I kind of did. I was like, come on, Mike,
Speaker 1: you know, let's handle it. But he got paid, so
Speaker 1: I mean it's pretty tremendous, and that's really what it's about.
Speaker 1: We'll see if this fight ends up being a little
Speaker 1: bit different, but we'll see. I think this one's a
Speaker 1: little bit lower profile in a lot of ways. I
Speaker 1: was about to say, I haven't heard a thing about this.
Speaker 1: I didn't know it existed. Wow, I'm here to help,
Speaker 1: that's what I Yeah, thank you, I'm here for the people,
Speaker 1: don't you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not getting paid for that.
Speaker 1: It's just just one of those things like, yeah, I
Speaker 1: gotta find out and find out if it's actually worth watching.
Speaker 4: Later we'll see how it goes, you know.
Speaker 1: And when I asked this about the weed thing, and
Speaker 1: we got Morgan Fox on it. But I'm just kind
Speaker 1: of curious if you voted for one of the fifty
Speaker 1: seven percent and you were like, yeah, let's legalize the
Speaker 1: weed and it's been that way for the better part
Speaker 1: of two years and change, right, And I love the
Speaker 1: fact that lawmakers were saying that apparently Ohioan's were not
Speaker 1: able to understand what they voted for, but it was
Speaker 1: fairly clear they're like, no, you can't be trusted because
Speaker 1: it's weed. But apparently with the alcohol and you know, guns,
Speaker 1: it's a little bit different. Of course, a different viewpoint
Speaker 1: on a lot of things, and it gets kind of
Speaker 1: weird a Governor of Wine signing that thing. And apparently
Speaker 1: the lin item veto they took out the THHC beverage issue,
Speaker 1: which is going to affect a whole lot of breweries
Speaker 1: and a lot of people who have started to enjoy
Speaker 1: instead of a drinking regular booze, having a little something
Speaker 1: that's infused with the THHC. But that's going to go
Speaker 1: by by unless you make it for yourself at the
Speaker 1: house or something along those lines, which seems like a
Speaker 1: whole lot of work. Just generally. The other thing. And
Speaker 1: we were talking about the Epstein files, and they're not
Speaker 1: all out.
Speaker 4: They were all.
Speaker 1: Supposed to be released today by court order, but apparently
Speaker 1: it was impossible because there's so many files, so many photos,
Speaker 1: apparently videos as well in some cases former President Clinton
Speaker 1: apparently in some in a hot tub. Apparently there are
Speaker 1: some fairly incriminating bits of data and information about some
Speaker 1: of the people involved. President Trump apparently apparently was up
Speaker 1: to no good or no I should say, not up
Speaker 1: to no good. That didn't sound is a minute to
Speaker 1: sound apparently from what Wiley has said in others that
Speaker 1: he was not involved with anything that was bad, just
Speaker 1: sort of around. I don't know, he did grab him
Speaker 1: by the whatever and the whole thing that got attention
Speaker 1: that nobody cared about when it came to like the
Speaker 1: Miss USA thing and everything else. So there's a slippery slope,
Speaker 1: I guess. But the idea of victims, and you know
Speaker 1: what's been somewhat surprising to me and Sean was talking
Speaker 1: to some people off the air about this as well,
Speaker 1: because you know the idea. Apparently of people are unhappy
Speaker 1: that I said there were children that were victims of
Speaker 1: this Epstein thing, as there are for sexual trafficking issues
Speaker 1: all over the country here in the tri State and
Speaker 1: beyond all over planet Earth. And it's bewildering to me.
Speaker 1: And from what we've uncovered from the documents that are
Speaker 1: part of this, the Trevor Treasure shows of data and
Speaker 1: so forth, at this point shows ages of eleven to
Speaker 1: eighteen years old, and consenting adult would be eighteen as
Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned. Although the age of consent for
Speaker 1: marriage is a little bit different from state to state,
Speaker 1: some at sixteen. It used to be younger than that
Speaker 1: in some places, which is sort of bewildering. Some of
Speaker 1: those laws were in place because we didn't live that long.
Speaker 1: You get married at fourteen, fifteen sixteen, you pump out
Speaker 1: a bunch of kids, not all of them would survive,
Speaker 1: and then you'd be dead by forty or fifty. Maybe
Speaker 1: we live now to seventy eighty ninety years old. It's
Speaker 1: not unheard of to hear somebody say they got a
Speaker 1: relative they got into their mid to late nineties, which
Speaker 1: is that's a marathon, that's not a sprint. And what
Speaker 1: I want to know is this because we are full
Speaker 1: of inconsistencies in this country and what we consider to
Speaker 1: be consenting adult kind of decision making. Right, we don't
Speaker 1: trust kids at this point on military basis to use
Speaker 1: their cell phones because in school, and we've talked about
Speaker 1: in Ohio where they're now locking away cell phones because
Speaker 1: they're a major distraction with social media or cheating and
Speaker 1: a whole lot of other things in classrooms. Right, a
Speaker 1: lot of parents, I want my kid to have the
Speaker 1: phone to keep in touch if the worst thing happens,
Speaker 1: which seems to be in the news about monthly with
Speaker 1: shootings or maybe even weekly, whether it's Brown University or
Speaker 1: elsewhere around the country, and it's happened in and around
Speaker 1: our region. Two, you've got to be eighteen to vote,
Speaker 1: sixteen drive, you can't drink till you're twenty one. You
Speaker 1: can go to war for this country at sixteen seventeen
Speaker 1: in some cases, right if I'm not mistake in seventeen
Speaker 1: for sure or eighteen. You can't smoke? Can you smoke?
Speaker 1: At twenty one or eighteen. I don't smoke, so I
Speaker 1: don't know. Remember that I would get a note from
Speaker 1: my mom when I was a kid, and I would
Speaker 1: ride my bike down to the store to get cigarettes
Speaker 1: from my mom when she wanted them, and it would say,
Speaker 1: my son, sterling, can buy a pack of whatever cigarettes
Speaker 1: for me and whatever else, and then she'd sign that,
Speaker 1: and then I'd give a person at the counter the
Speaker 1: money and then they give me the cigarette. Day's twenty
Speaker 1: first century America and tri State probably be a phone
Speaker 1: called a you know, like two four to one kids
Speaker 1: or something. In that circumstance, it's kind of a weird thing.
Speaker 1: You can't be trusted to drink or get legal weed
Speaker 1: until you're twenty one. You can put your life on
Speaker 1: the line for our country at eighteen or seventeen. Right,
Speaker 1: you can't drive till you're sixteen, and that's variable depending
Speaker 1: on your circumstance too. I suppose what is the age
Speaker 1: of consent when it comes to you think sex. Now,
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people have a lot of
Speaker 1: sex at a lot of younger ages. But when you're
Speaker 1: talking about the Epstein thing and people being trafficked and
Speaker 1: forced into circumstances under the age of eighteen, I'd say
Speaker 1: that's not consenting. And even if they said that they
Speaker 1: were okay with it and they were into it, I
Speaker 1: would still say they're a child and they can't make
Speaker 1: a decision for themselves, because in a whole lot of
Speaker 1: other ways in our society, if you're not eighteen or
Speaker 1: not twenty one, you're thought not to be culpable for
Speaker 1: your actions, thought to not be fully functional as a
Speaker 1: human to make choices for yourself. However, if you do
Speaker 1: an adult crime at the age of thirteen, fourteen, fifteen
Speaker 1: years old, we are very very very quick to point
Speaker 1: the finger at our judicial system to say we need
Speaker 1: to charge this child with an adult, grown up crime
Speaker 1: because they did adult, grown up stuff, even though they're
Speaker 1: a child and may or may not have had a
Speaker 1: full understanding of their actions.
Speaker 4: I think I've hit a few of these.
Speaker 1: Points to where there's some inconsistencies on it, right, But
Speaker 1: in this case, with the Epstein stuff, I'm just curious,
Speaker 1: do you consider any child under seventeen years old, under
Speaker 1: eighteen years old to be unable to make a decision
Speaker 1: about flying someplace else with or without their parents' permission
Speaker 1: to go sex it up with somebody who probably paid
Speaker 1: somebody else for that activity. I think the vast majority
Speaker 1: of us would say that's probably not appropriate, probably inconceivable
Speaker 1: that somebody would say it was okay in many cases,
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, if you're eighteen or nineteen. Hell,
Speaker 1: if you're twenty one in some cases and you were
Speaker 1: dating a fifteen or sixteen year old, which that's a
Speaker 1: huge bit of difference at that age groups. I know
Speaker 1: some would say that you should go away to prison
Speaker 1: for taking advantage of a minor child who couldn't make
Speaker 1: a decision for themselves. But there are many cases of
Speaker 1: grown ups, or at least what one would consider an
Speaker 1: adult at seventeen or eighteen, who might go out with
Speaker 1: a fifteen or sixteen year old, and if you just
Speaker 1: go up a year or two, they're nineteen, and then
Speaker 1: maybe they're sixteen or seventeen, and there are issues of
Speaker 1: custodial issue or statutory rape that comes up. We've seen it,
Speaker 1: we've talked about it, you've heard it in the news.
Speaker 1: So anybody who has the gall to say somehow that
Speaker 1: those under the age of eighteen were okay and could
Speaker 1: be considered implicit and somehow not a victim involved with
Speaker 1: sex trafficking, be it with Epstein or some unfortunate case
Speaker 1: that presents itself in our part of the world, right
Speaker 1: here and now in the tri State. I would love
Speaker 1: to hear how you can rationalize that, because I can't
Speaker 1: make sense of it.
Speaker 4: It's bewildering to me. It really is.
Speaker 1: Are you happy with what has come out in this
Speaker 1: treasure trove if you will, of bits of information or
Speaker 1: is that not.
Speaker 7: Really? You know?
Speaker 1: And maybe you're tired of it. I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people do have some tire or some like feeling
Speaker 1: on it. They're like enough, But if it's your kid
Speaker 1: or someone you know who was caught up in that
Speaker 1: and dealing with the emotional turmoil of it and what
Speaker 1: comes after, you know, not everybody can get over that.
Speaker 1: Not everybody can compartmentalize and say, well, that happened and
Speaker 1: that was then, and that doesn't mean anything, and they
Speaker 1: try to carry on that seems to linger and clearly,
Speaker 1: and people in positions of power and authority and of
Speaker 1: great means financially have a way to manipulate a lot
Speaker 1: of things. And the delay that went with this, I
Speaker 1: don't you know, and I'm not a tinfoil hat wearing
Speaker 1: conspiracy theorist, you know, I'm not one of those people
Speaker 1: who necessarily are of the opinion, but maybe you know
Speaker 1: when the conspiracy is true, right, well, hard to not
Speaker 1: imagine that somebody wouldn't have gone into these files, in
Speaker 1: these records, in this window of time that's been there
Speaker 1: after it has been talked about and an election issue
Speaker 1: in many cases, and having a whole lot of people
Speaker 1: very passionate about getting to the bottom of it. To
Speaker 1: be in a situation where we would question with the redactions,
Speaker 1: with the delays, with all the talk of it being
Speaker 1: a hoax, after it was convenient to use it to
Speaker 1: point the finger at the opposing party, if you will,
Speaker 1: in political parlance, let's say, whether clearly maybe there's been
Speaker 1: a chance to sanitize it. And I think that's going
Speaker 1: to be in the back of a lot of people's
Speaker 1: mind till the end of time. In relation to this,
Speaker 1: I do, and I don't care about political persuasion or
Speaker 1: anything else. We're talking about human beings, kids, children who
Speaker 1: have no place making a decision to be a party
Speaker 1: to that type of activity, and apparently have been very
Speaker 1: vocal in fighting for a long time to get to
Speaker 1: some place of justice. And it's a little bit easier,
Speaker 1: I guess, to get justice if it's a low rent,
Speaker 1: nobody working, you know the angle as a sex trader,
Speaker 1: you know, going from hotel to hotel or whatever else
Speaker 1: in and around the tri state or traffic them around
Speaker 1: the country as they do. They make it in the
Speaker 1: news and people talk about wanting to get them, you know,
Speaker 1: put away for life forever and always. But this, people
Speaker 1: are tired of this. People are exhausted of hearing this.
Speaker 1: People are somehow coming up with a way and bewilderingly
Speaker 1: so to rationalize and justify or deny that without looking
Speaker 1: at what has been released and where it's documented. Now,
Speaker 1: kids of eleven to eighteen years of age, we're not
Speaker 1: talking about people in their twenties or college age women
Speaker 1: or what have you. Children eleven years old is what
Speaker 1: sixth grade? Fifth grade? I mean, come on, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. It really is five one, three, seven, four nine,
Speaker 1: seven thousand, eight hundred, the big one. I want to
Speaker 1: know where your head is on this, or maybe you
Speaker 1: know you are exhausted and tired of it.
Speaker 4: We'll have to wait and see.
Speaker 1: Right now, five minutes left fourth quarter in the college
Speaker 1: football First Round playoff. It's Alabama and Oklahoma getting it on,
Speaker 1: and Obama leads by ten. I think it's thirty four
Speaker 1: to twenty four. The screen just changed, of course, as
Speaker 1: I'm trying to tell you about it. It's a Friday
Speaker 1: night Sterling seven four nine, seven thousand, eight hundred the
Speaker 1: Big One, seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 17: This week, the Bengals and Dolphins meet up in Miami
Speaker 17: for a South Beach showdown. Speaking of the beach, my
Speaker 17: swimsuit of choice is a speedo European style. I don't
Speaker 17: like those pesky dead lives. The Bengals stool, the Dolphins
Speaker 17: get that call from Dan Hoyd and Dave Lam. The
Speaker 17: game kicks love at won VM with coverage starting at
Speaker 17: nine am Sunday stream for free. Are the new and
Speaker 17: improved iHeartRadio app poor on seven hundred WLW, home of
Speaker 17: the best fangles coverage.
Speaker 18: Bad breath is a confidence killer. You can have the
Speaker 18: best outfit, the funniest jokes, but if your breath smells
Speaker 18: like what you just ate, that's all people remember, and
Speaker 18: most gums and men's just cover it up. That's like
Speaker 18: spring perfume on dirty laundry. Zelman's mintea mouth It's different.
Speaker 18: It's a functional breath freshener you swallow, clinically tested to
Speaker 18: fight the toughest offenders, even garlic and onions. Zelmans is
Speaker 18: only available online. Go to Zelmans ze l M I
Speaker 18: n S Zelmans dot com code radio for fifteen percent.
Speaker 1: Off nine first morning forecast on the Big One, down
Speaker 1: to twenty five tonight near fifty for our Saturday, I'm
Speaker 1: digging it forty Sunday, forty, Monday twenty seven. Now your
Speaker 1: severe weather station. Seven hundred W Bengals and the fish
Speaker 1: in Miami Dolphins. I don't mean to be disrespectful. I
Speaker 1: mean you know it'll be like summer down there, like
Speaker 1: eighty around kickoff one o'clock here, seven hundred WLW with
Speaker 1: the best Bengals coverage. Of course, this is a wild story,
Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna read the headline. Morg manager at Harvard.
Speaker 1: Harvard sentenced to eight years selling brain skin and faces
Speaker 1: effectively like trinkets or something along those lines. A man
Speaker 1: gets like eight years. His wife sentenced to just over
Speaker 1: a year and change, basically as she assisted him it's
Speaker 1: like the old days where there would be grave robbers
Speaker 1: and so forth. Except and this is something I thought
Speaker 1: of doing because I figure, when I'm dead, I got
Speaker 1: no use for my body anymore, right, so amazed, Well,
Speaker 1: donate it to science. Let them maybe find a way
Speaker 1: to cure something. Donate my pieces and parts to maybe
Speaker 1: give somebody site, maybe kidneys, whatever else when I'm done
Speaker 1: with them, and so on, because it's a benefit. Buddy
Speaker 1: of mine has an extra kindy now, or I shouldn't say, well,
Speaker 1: he has three. He had a bad one. They didn't
Speaker 1: take it out, but put a new one in there.
Speaker 1: It's like a series of batteries. It's weird, but it
Speaker 1: works for him because somebody else gave him the gift
Speaker 1: of life. It's an important thing. So people donated their
Speaker 1: bodies to science, and apparently when they were done with
Speaker 1: them and it was nothing left for them, these people
Speaker 1: decided to sell the pieces and parts. People like bought
Speaker 1: brains and skin and hands and faces.
Speaker 4: Faces. I don't that's not even like a full skull.
Speaker 4: What do you do?
Speaker 1: You peel off the face and put it like in
Speaker 1: a ziploc bag on ice and then ship it. I
Speaker 1: don't even understand then who's buying this stuff?
Speaker 4: And at what point do you.
Speaker 1: Go Listen, I've got a great idea. There are all
Speaker 1: these stiffs that nobody wants and they donated their bodies.
Speaker 1: I think there's a market for this. Did someone call them?
Speaker 1: Did they reach out to them on social media? It's
Speaker 1: a very odd deal.
Speaker 4: Woman. It was a part of it.
Speaker 1: The wife fifty eight years old out of New Hampshire,
Speaker 1: live free or die baby, And apparently these people died
Speaker 1: and it wasn't free. Somebody was paying for their pieces
Speaker 1: and parts. Let's just bewildering. Apparently they make thousands and
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars in just two years three years time
Speaker 1: between eighteen and March and twenty.
Speaker 4: They were involved in this.
Speaker 1: They say, after Harvard is done using these donated pieces
Speaker 1: and parts or whatever's left of the body effectively for
Speaker 1: teaching and research, they usually go back to the family.
Speaker 1: Or in my case, I want to be cremated, and
Speaker 1: you can just throw my ashes anywhere, probably in a
Speaker 1: golf course that I would have probably humilitated made in
Speaker 1: myself on or they would have said you don't belong here.
Speaker 1: They could just throw my dust there. As far as
Speaker 1: it's concerned. That's crazy, and that guy was a Morgue
Speaker 1: manager for twenty eight years. You've got to figure out
Speaker 1: at this point how long had this been going on.
Speaker 1: Was this a new thing or they just finally got caught.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is like old school stuff because people
Speaker 1: wouldn't allow research to be done bodies, which is a
Speaker 1: good way to learn how to keep us healthy living.
Speaker 1: But this is people. I'm assuming you want to pair
Speaker 1: of hands of a dead guy. How about a face?
Speaker 1: How about i mean some extra skin? Who is collecting
Speaker 1: this stuff? What are they doing with this stuff? The
Speaker 1: mind wonders, it's disturbing. Travis Layer has more news, hopefully
Speaker 1: not as disturbing. And then on the other side, we'll
Speaker 1: talk about reasonable rational marijuana laws into changes in Ohio
Speaker 1: and with an executive order of President Trump with Morgan
Speaker 1: Fox from Normal On the other side with Sterling on
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW
