Speaker 1: All right, on this Thursday, welcome on in, and there's
Speaker 1: a lot to get to, a lot happening in the world.
Speaker 1: Of course, there's a briefing going on at the White House.
Speaker 1: The Vice President is going to be there with Carolyn Levitt,
Speaker 1: the pr Secretary, Christy Nome, Homeland Cervic Security Director. She's
Speaker 1: holding court in Minnesota. And of course, the shooting in
Speaker 1: Minneapolis yesterday involving an ICE agent continues to be percolating nationally.
Speaker 1: Some say cold blooded murder, others say it with self defense.
Speaker 1: I guess at the end of it, at the end
Speaker 1: of it, it will be the courts that will ferret all
Speaker 1: of that out. We'll see how defined the law is
Speaker 1: and where that case winds up, if indeed goes to court.
Speaker 1: Because the mayor in Minneapolis and the governor of that state,
Speaker 1: in a rush to the cameras and microphones, seem to
Speaker 1: have polluted the water for a jury that could preside
Speaker 1: over that case here the case understand In the case,
Speaker 1: it seems to have polluted the water to a point
Speaker 1: where it might be impossible in the state of Minnesota.
Speaker 1: We'll see if it ever gets that far. Meanwhile, in
Speaker 1: South America, the adventures continue with Venezuela. Now, there has
Speaker 1: been a vote on the floor of the US Senate
Speaker 1: today that was a defeat for Donald Trump. This was
Speaker 1: a bill led by Democrat Senator and failed Vice president
Speaker 1: candidate Tim Kine from Virginia, and it got some Republicans
Speaker 1: the usual week need people like Murkowski and Collins Young
Speaker 1: from Indiana and surprisingly Josh Hawley. Basically that for a
Speaker 1: War Powers Act, if indeed this is a war in Venezuela,
Speaker 1: that you have to go to Congress and you have
Speaker 1: to state your case. Now it was.
Speaker 2: Only one vote.
Speaker 1: There's another vote that needs to take place on this
Speaker 1: and that will have to clear the sixty vote filibuster
Speaker 1: threshold before it. So right now, it passed today with
Speaker 1: these Democrat these Democrats being joined by a handful of Republicans,
Speaker 1: but it's going to take much more than that to
Speaker 1: get it into law. Anyway, we'll keep an eye on
Speaker 1: that and wonder again what exactly is up in Venezuela.
Speaker 1: You know, we had Joshua Philip on the show a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, actually it was right before Christmas.
Speaker 1: I think we had Joshua on the show. He of
Speaker 1: course from the epic times and a terrific reporter and documentarian,
Speaker 1: and he said something that just shocked me. He said, yeah,
Speaker 1: eventually they're going to go in and either kill medor
Speaker 1: h get him out. And I We're like what. So
Speaker 1: he proved to be prescient on that. I'd like to
Speaker 1: get him back on today to just talk about what
Speaker 1: really is at stake at Venezuela and whether or not
Speaker 1: the public knows. And with that we welcome in the
Speaker 1: aforementioned Joshua Phillip. How are you on this glorious Thursday.
Speaker 3: Joshua, Yeah, doing well and the interesting start of the new.
Speaker 4: Year, right it is?
Speaker 1: But I mean you you called this, I mean I
Speaker 1: would have gone straight to Vegas. I fire were you
Speaker 1: if they were making a book on the heads on platters,
Speaker 1: you would have cleaned up. But I was shocked at
Speaker 1: the efficiency of taking Medora out. I thought he would
Speaker 1: might might have a little more protection from the people
Speaker 1: he was servicing. That would be, of course, the Cubans
Speaker 1: and the Chinese and whatnot, But apparently not. And now
Speaker 1: he's out down there. It would seem to be a
Speaker 1: little bit of chaos going on down in Venezuela right now,
Speaker 1: as to who's in charge.
Speaker 3: Who's in charge, it's not clear who's in charge right now.
Speaker 3: They do have a transition government. The Trump administration's putting
Speaker 3: that in place. Trump is saying the United States is
Speaker 3: going to be running the country for years, the name
Speaker 3: probably for years. They're saying that Venezuela has to give
Speaker 3: the United thirty to fifty million barrels of oil which
Speaker 3: would be sold at market price. The money for that
Speaker 3: will go back to Venezuela to help them in the transition,
Speaker 3: and we'll see. Part of the condition of them getting
Speaker 3: the oil industry backup is also that they have to
Speaker 3: push out China, Russia, Iran in Cuba. So, as I
Speaker 3: was saying last to Mozaan, I think that's the real
Speaker 3: context of this. This is about America restoring them in
Speaker 3: road doctrine and especially challenging and pushing out what the
Speaker 3: CCP is done in China, which is they basically replaced
Speaker 3: the United States throughout Latin America.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, as you point out in an article that I
Speaker 1: saw today, what's happening in Venezuela, it's about the intersection
Speaker 1: of energy, wealth, transnational crime, ideological struggle, and a global
Speaker 1: power reordering. That has put Venezuela into the center of
Speaker 1: a new great power contest, which would be between the
Speaker 1: United States and China as the major players. Russia always
Speaker 1: lurking in the background, as is Iran. So there's a
Speaker 1: lot more at stake than just the oil that's in
Speaker 1: the ground, although that becomes the precious commodity that I
Speaker 1: think everybody is interested in. But this not only addresses,
Speaker 1: as you say them on road doctrine, but also addresses
Speaker 1: a lot of other things besides let's just get oil
Speaker 1: out of the ground and get the American oil companies
Speaker 1: back in there running the show. This is This is
Speaker 1: probably one of the major fulcrums that I can remember
Speaker 1: for geopolitical struggle in my lifetime. And I think I'm
Speaker 1: a hell of a lot older than you. This is
Speaker 1: extremely complex, is it not.
Speaker 3: It's very complex, And you know, to your point you
Speaker 3: were mentioning Congress voting on this, the Senate passing abil
Speaker 3: at least there's one level of it. You know. I
Speaker 3: don't think they're going to pass the filibuster on it,
Speaker 3: but I can say I think the Trumpet administration could
Speaker 3: do a lot better explaining why this is necessary, why
Speaker 3: they're doing something so drastic, because you know, guys like
Speaker 3: guys like me. I researched this stuff, and I can
Speaker 3: see the importance of it. I can understand the reason
Speaker 3: for it. But they're not really saying that. If you
Speaker 3: were to ask me, if I were to go and testify,
Speaker 3: and I were to go and make a point, this
Speaker 3: is what I'd say. I'd say they probably avoided World
Speaker 3: War three by by taking out Maduro, the United States Trump.
Speaker 3: They probably just avoided World War three.
Speaker 1: In what sense?
Speaker 4: Here?
Speaker 1: Just tell me how. I'm sure you're going to explain anyway,
Speaker 1: But how did they do that? Was Venezuela that much
Speaker 1: of a point of contention with these other countries?
Speaker 3: So this happened just a couple months after Madua was
Speaker 3: planning to invade Guyana just north.
Speaker 4: Of just north of them.
Speaker 3: Well, I was actually down in Panama investigating the border
Speaker 3: crisis a couple of years back, and you know, I
Speaker 3: went down to the Darien Gap, and so I was
Speaker 3: talking experts down there and they told me this too.
Speaker 3: They said, yeah, Venezuela is going to invade gonna invade Guyana.
Speaker 3: Brazil is going to work with them, This is going
Speaker 3: to start a regional war, and it's going to cause
Speaker 3: a massive, massive migrant influx to the United States. You
Speaker 3: would have had Colombians, you would have had Brazilians, you
Speaker 3: would have had you know, Venezuelan's, you would have had,
Speaker 3: you know, people from the gun Is, a smaller country
Speaker 3: have been less of an issue, but you would have
Speaker 3: had a massive migrant inflow. It would have been like
Speaker 3: Syria and the migrant inflow they had into Western Europe
Speaker 3: when Winisad was falling. It would have been like that.
Speaker 3: And not only that, but I say global war. This
Speaker 3: is why, first of all, America would have intervened because
Speaker 3: we have you know, we have oil rights in Guyana
Speaker 3: eggs On is there offshore oil, one of the largest
Speaker 3: oil reserves in the world. Maduro claimed he had historical
Speaker 3: ownership of that entire region. And even though the international
Speaker 3: courts that he does not passed in his own laws
Speaker 3: saying they have the right to go in and take it,
Speaker 3: they were right about to do that. And when I
Speaker 3: talk about the global implication, this is why I say
Speaker 3: world War three. The Chinese Communist Party has a public
Speaker 3: war plan. It's from the Shiji Team's one of his
Speaker 3: main advisors, a guy named chim Can Rong and they
Speaker 3: said that if China is going to invade Taiwan, they
Speaker 3: need to get America busy with three other wars before
Speaker 3: they do it. In other words, they have to get
Speaker 3: America fighting four wars. This was before Russian off stuff.
Speaker 3: But they said they needed a war with Russia, they
Speaker 3: needed a war in the Middle East, and they needed
Speaker 3: a war in Latin America. They wanted Brazil to actually
Speaker 3: start a war and Lulu was around the first time.
Speaker 3: And then if Brazil gets involded this that would have
Speaker 3: been it. Then you have Iran trying to rebuild not
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons now they're working on biological and chemical weapons
Speaker 3: now because the new cryptility is at blown up, and
Speaker 3: then Russia is not getting off and not getting off
Speaker 3: the ship with its war either. That would have been
Speaker 3: our three wars, and then China would invade the Taiwan.
Speaker 3: We would be in World War three. That then, had
Speaker 3: that happened.
Speaker 2: Wow wow.
Speaker 1: Trump. Trump is clumsy and a lot of the things
Speaker 1: he does and explaining things is as you mentioned, just
Speaker 1: a moment. Ago is not one of his strong suits.
Speaker 1: Trump is also somebody who's not a conventional politician. Is
Speaker 1: it beyond the realm of possibility that he could in
Speaker 1: essence run or we could, I guess would be a
Speaker 1: better way. We could run Venezuela for the next for
Speaker 1: three or four years or whatever it may be, and
Speaker 1: use the commodities that are there to in essence do
Speaker 1: business with China, do business with Russia, and use a
Speaker 1: business model to cure all of these conflicts that are
Speaker 1: popping up. I'm just wondering if the endgame for Trump
Speaker 1: would be a little bit different than the normal president
Speaker 1: in a situation like this, What do you think?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, on the legal front, right, just just strictly
Speaker 3: legal side, infrastructure everything. This is not much different from
Speaker 3: what George Bush was doing in a rock, right, Hallie
Speaker 3: Pallidburton was there doing doing the.
Speaker 4: Oil mining and so on, or oil excellence.
Speaker 3: We took the royal industry. They made a lot of
Speaker 3: money off it, and you know, of course things didn't
Speaker 3: work us so well. The main difference was is a
Speaker 3: lot of that was because we're finding a terror as
Speaker 3: a morient insurgency. You're not going to have that in Venezuela.
Speaker 3: You're not going to have you know, people becoming radicalized
Speaker 3: and so on in Venezuela, like the crime they have
Speaker 3: is all just money. It's money motivated, it's not ideological
Speaker 3: and motivated.
Speaker 1: We're not going to have that.
Speaker 3: But what I think will happen is this so part
Speaker 3: of the new defense strategy put out by the United States,
Speaker 3: the whole you know, going forward, what we're going to
Speaker 3: be doing as a country. A big part of it is
Speaker 3: about the restoration of the neuro doctrine, not only re
Speaker 3: establishing American order throughout the Americas, also pushing out China,
Speaker 3: pushing out Russia, pushing out Iran and Hezbela, eliminating the
Speaker 3: Cuban intelligence networks that have actually penetrated a lot of
Speaker 3: a drug trade and also are puppeteering a lot of
Speaker 3: the government. Maduro was surrounded by Cuban intel officials for example,
Speaker 3: they killed a lot of them when they went in there.
Speaker 3: But also big programs to do nation building and we
Speaker 3: are going to be building infrastructure, new industries, factors throughout
Speaker 3: Latin America. That is part of the state of agenda.
Speaker 3: I believe that Venezuela was the key piece that was
Speaker 3: needed for this, and the reason was Venezuela was the
Speaker 3: one that worked with Cuba to push the Nice States
Speaker 3: out in the first place. If you're going to bring
Speaker 3: back them. In Roae doctrine, it starts in Venezuela.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cuba's I guess Maduro wanted out after Trump was
Speaker 1: re elected and Cuba said, no, you're basically our puppet.
Speaker 1: You stay there. What do you make of What do
Speaker 1: you make?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What do you make of Colombia? I mean that country
Speaker 1: has done a one to eighty, it seems like, in
Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours. And now all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: the president of that company a country is coming to Washington,
Speaker 1: d c. To visit with Trump after he called Trump
Speaker 1: every name of the book except an American. I'm just
Speaker 1: wondering what do you make of that? And is that
Speaker 1: like a precursor of the way things will go now
Speaker 1: in South America? Everybody will be quick to try and
Speaker 1: make a deal, maybe even Mexico to avoid what happened
Speaker 1: to Maduro. Maduro, as you mentioned, was surrounded by these
Speaker 1: Cuban bodyguards, and the United States cook the whole thing
Speaker 1: out in like an hour. I'm wondering what you make
Speaker 1: now of what's falling into place in the wake of this.
Speaker 3: My take is this Trump is going in there because
Speaker 3: people were questioning, well, Trump is why are we giving
Speaker 3: all this money to bail out Argentina right now? Why
Speaker 3: are we bailing our Argentina's economy. Why are we working
Speaker 3: with al Salvador right now? Why are we doing regime
Speaker 3: change in Venezuela right now? Why is Trump meeting with
Speaker 3: Petro from Columbia right now? Why did Trump pardon this
Speaker 3: drug trafficker leader at which country was just recently? Why
Speaker 3: would he do that?
Speaker 4: If you thought about drugs?
Speaker 3: This is the reason they're all like that. All of
Speaker 3: Latin American politics is influenced in some way by the
Speaker 3: drug drain. You know, if you're not, they kill you,
Speaker 3: You get assassinated, you know what I mean. It's the
Speaker 3: way the region work. Is the unfortunate reality. And so
Speaker 3: I think what Trump is offering them is this, look,
Speaker 3: America is going to go in. We're going to kill
Speaker 3: the cartels, We're going to blow up the drug boats.
Speaker 3: We're going to go and destroy the processing facilities for drugs.
Speaker 3: Yes in Mexico probably, yes, in Columbia. Trump says, they're
Speaker 3: already over targeted. That's what's going to happen. What does
Speaker 3: that mean, for those countries, that's a huge part of
Speaker 3: their economy. A lot of Latin America is underworld economy.
Speaker 3: They're focused on human trafficking, they're focused on drugs, and
Speaker 3: they're focused on crimes. So what you need is this.
Speaker 3: So these leaders are being told your economy is dead.
Speaker 3: You have no future. Whether we scoop you up and
Speaker 3: fly you to New York or whether you stay there,
Speaker 3: you have no future. And so this is what you
Speaker 3: can do. Come here. We know you're a drug trafficker,
Speaker 3: we know you work with the cartels, but that industry
Speaker 3: is over, and now's your chance to build a new
Speaker 3: industry for your country. We'll work with you, we'll forgive
Speaker 3: your past, and that's it. And I think that's going
Speaker 3: to be what Trump offers to Petri when he brings
Speaker 3: him up.
Speaker 1: Which brings us back to the conversation we had a
Speaker 1: few minutes ago about this vote on the Senate floor
Speaker 1: today and ultimately it will have to be voted on
Speaker 1: again to get to the sixty vote threshold which would
Speaker 1: then put it into law. You said earlier, you think
Speaker 1: that it will this this whole thing that Cain and
Speaker 1: I guess it was ran Paul that they floated this
Speaker 1: this curving of the War Powers Act the president has
Speaker 1: and you have to go before Congress and all that.
Speaker 1: I think you said you don't anticipate it to get
Speaker 1: to the sixty vote threshold that the people that defected
Speaker 1: from the Republican Party again, Paul from Kentucky, Murkowski from Alaska,
Speaker 1: Susan Collins from Maine, Todd Young from Indiana, and Josh
Speaker 1: Hawley from Missouri, do you think that that And I
Speaker 1: know we're jumping back into American politics here, but do
Speaker 1: you think that do you think that gets to this
Speaker 1: sixty vote threshold? I think I heard you say a
Speaker 1: few minutes ago, don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think they'd reach it if they were to
Speaker 3: have it, like on that same threshold right now, if
Speaker 3: they were to have it right now, they wouldn't have
Speaker 3: got it. But I think I think the Trump administration
Speaker 3: needs to be better explaining itself and.
Speaker 1: The ground thing, the boots on the ground thing apparently
Speaker 1: was an issue for Hawley. He's still saying, well, the
Speaker 1: American that the president the administration is is not denying that,
Speaker 1: which I think would be a non starter for a
Speaker 1: lot of the people that support the president on this
Speaker 1: that seems to be a sticking point for Hawley, Collins
Speaker 1: and Murkowski a week need to begin with. So I'm
Speaker 1: just I can't see them getting any more votes than
Speaker 1: what they got today. And if that's the case, then
Speaker 1: this thing dies and then Trump can go in and
Speaker 1: do what you said he probably will do.
Speaker 2: Would would be goin.
Speaker 3: And knock out the cartels, And I think that's what
Speaker 3: he is going to do. You know, the other side
Speaker 3: of what you're watching is just through normal battles. And
Speaker 3: this is the funny reality that a lot of nobody's
Speaker 3: talking about. The overthrow of Maduro was a bipartisan policy
Speaker 3: during the during the Biden administration, that this was not
Speaker 3: a divisive issue. Democrats wanted it. The Biden administration put
Speaker 3: a twenty five million dollar price on Maduro's head. They
Speaker 3: had a twenty five million dollar boundary are for Maduro.
Speaker 3: Some of the last statements the Biden administration had on
Speaker 3: Maduro was that he was not the official leader of
Speaker 3: the country, that he had stolen power, that he was
Speaker 3: the leader of the car tell the stuns, that he
Speaker 3: was a terrorist, and they were saying they were going
Speaker 3: to do regime change. The Biden administration was talking about
Speaker 3: doing regime change in Venezuela, and so I think there's
Speaker 3: a lot of people doing false outrage just to put
Speaker 3: on a part of him show with this, I don't
Speaker 3: think it would actually hold up, because I think deep
Speaker 3: down the amber they all remember this.
Speaker 1: Joshua Philip. You can find him on the Epic Times
Speaker 1: television show. He is the host of Crossroads and among
Speaker 1: his documentaries, the Final War of the one hundred year
Speaker 1: Plot to defeat America. All worth seeing, all worth watching,
Speaker 1: and all worth listening to. Joshua. We appreciate your time
Speaker 1: here today and we'll visit down the road.
Speaker 4: Thanks and great pleasure.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Good insight as to what is going on south of
Speaker 1: the border. Ain't all about oil or blowing up boats.
Speaker 1: It's twelve twenty seven. It's the averaging American in for
Speaker 1: the Great American on this Thursday. News Radio seven hundred
Speaker 1: WLW Welcome back, seven hundred WLW. It's the average American
Speaker 1: in for the Great American on this Thursday. A lot
Speaker 1: to get to, certainly the events in Minneapolis yesterday commanding
Speaker 1: a lot of our attention. One oh six will be
Speaker 1: joined by Michael Lentz of investusa dot org, and we're
Speaker 1: going to get into the discussion that dilemma. Was this
Speaker 1: is a cold blooded murder or was it a woman
Speaker 1: who was attacking Ice police with her car and the
Speaker 1: vehicle in essence became a lethal weapon. And one of
Speaker 1: these elected officials up in Minneapolis and in the state
Speaker 1: of Minnesota, and they're inflamed rhetoric that might have led
Speaker 1: to something like this. You know, there's an easy way
Speaker 1: for ICE to go in and get someone who is
Speaker 1: in this country illegally or who has caused some sort
Speaker 1: of harm, broken some sort of law in this country,
Speaker 1: and that is for the local authorities to arrest that person,
Speaker 1: detain that person, and then ICE can go in and
Speaker 1: extract that person and hold them to federal charges. But no,
Speaker 1: Minnesota does not want that. It's a sanctuary state. Minneapolis
Speaker 1: is a sanctuary city, and it's run by a governor
Speaker 1: and a mayor who have done nothing to cooperate in
Speaker 1: what appears to be nothing more than a federal police operation.
Speaker 1: And we can get into immigration and how it should
Speaker 1: be enforced in all of that. If you're looking to
Speaker 1: track down a criminal in this unprey, someone who has
Speaker 1: done harm to anybody else that might be living in
Speaker 1: your state, anybody else that might have done something somewhere
Speaker 1: else in this country. You would think all of these
Speaker 1: law organizations could get along and work together, but you
Speaker 1: have mayors and you have governors that don't want that.
Speaker 1: And so I think what happened yesterday should come as
Speaker 1: no surprise to anyone, tragic as it may seem. So
Speaker 1: we're going to try and get to the whys and
Speaker 1: the wherefores that happened and the responsible response from a
Speaker 1: federal agent in a situation like that, and if that
Speaker 1: was something that occurred. So that's coming up at one
Speaker 1: o six. Much more to get to as well. We're
Speaker 1: going to talk about health again. The health chart got
Speaker 1: turned on top of its head yesterday. Make America healthy again. Well, okay,
Speaker 1: that thing has gone through several changes over the last
Speaker 1: five or six decades, But see if this new one works.
Speaker 1: By the way, the Miami Dolphins fired their head coach
Speaker 1: this morning. Mike McDonald is out. It seemed he would
Speaker 1: be retained for yet another year, but Miami has hired.
Speaker 1: I don't know how this is going to work. I mean, well,
Speaker 1: we'll see. There seems to be a blurry line here.
Speaker 1: But Troy Aikman has been hired to help them in
Speaker 1: their search for a new general manager, and one would
Speaker 1: think that would cascade down to a new coach, And
Speaker 1: yet Troy Aikman remains on the air broadcasting games, kind
Speaker 1: of what Tom Brady is doing. He literally works for
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders and he's still calling games on television.
Speaker 1: But objectivity aside, Mike McDonald is out, and that now
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, mirke McDaniel is out, and that now opens
Speaker 1: up eight head coaching positions, and my guess is John
Speaker 1: Harbaugh and Kevin Stefanski are going to feast on the opportunities.
Speaker 1: Here's something that'll turn your head over. Fifty six percent
Speaker 1: of gen Zers are turning to TikTok for medical advice.
Speaker 1: New survey. One thousand gen Zers say that, yeah, I
Speaker 1: will go to TikTok if something's wrong with us, because
Speaker 1: on there is sound medical advice. I don't see a
Speaker 1: dr before TikTok's name. But nevertheless, one in three of
Speaker 1: these gen Zers say TikTok is their main source for
Speaker 1: health information. Fifty six percent say they are using TikTok
Speaker 1: for health advice instead of a doctor. This can't possibly
Speaker 1: have a good ending. Standing by to join the conversation
Speaker 1: is Lee Richardson. She runs the Brain Institute. She suffered
Speaker 1: a traumatic brain injury earlier in her life, and she
Speaker 1: has dedicated all of her life since to understanding and
Speaker 1: helping those who have experienced some sort of a brain injury.
Speaker 1: So let's welcome Lee Richardson into the conversation. Lee, how
Speaker 1: are you on this glorious Thursday.
Speaker 5: I'm doing very well. Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1: I used to call you Lee, but now I call
Speaker 1: you doctor because I think anybody that put that much
Speaker 1: work into getting a doctorate deserves to be called doctor.
Speaker 1: Does that make sense?
Speaker 5: Well, thank you so much for that recognition.
Speaker 1: Well, good for you, and good for the folks that
Speaker 1: taught you. Look, I saw this, and there are a
Speaker 1: lot of reasons to not like social media. This is
Speaker 1: just added to the list, and it may go to
Speaker 1: the top of the list. Is that increasingly, more and more,
Speaker 1: particularly younger people are turning to places like TikTok to
Speaker 1: figure out what might be wrong with them from a
Speaker 1: mental state. And I'm thinking to myself, well, yeah, there
Speaker 1: probably is something wrong with you mentally. If you're getting
Speaker 1: advice on TikTok, this has got to be concerning to
Speaker 1: a professional like you.
Speaker 5: Absolutely and TikTok. Whether it's TikTok or Instagram or Facebook,
Speaker 5: it's so easy. Social media penetrates so many lines, and
Speaker 5: for many people it's their first stop for mental or health.
Speaker 1: And mental health, nobody wants to hear bad news, no
Speaker 1: matter what it is, but when it comes to your health,
Speaker 1: you don't really want to hear bad news. And I
Speaker 1: think most people know that there's something wrong with them
Speaker 1: and so I mean physically wrong with them before they
Speaker 1: even go to see a doctor. You can feel it.
Speaker 1: You just know, and I would guess from a mental
Speaker 1: outlook that you would know too that maybe something isn't
Speaker 1: quite right. So to avoid going to a doctor, you
Speaker 1: probably turn to other means. It's a quick fixed mentality.
Speaker 1: That's the way to find out what's wrong with you
Speaker 1: without actually having a human being tell you there's something
Speaker 1: there's wrong with you. Does that make sense?
Speaker 5: Well, I mean this is when you think about it.
Speaker 5: When the World Health Organization declares that we are in
Speaker 5: a state and phodemic, there's just too much information. It's false,
Speaker 5: it's misleading. It makes its cross as confusion. It causes
Speaker 5: people who take risky behavior, and these things can can
Speaker 5: harm you. But we have to stop and recognize that
Speaker 5: we've now kids are taught how to use AI in school,
Speaker 5: and we're coming out of the aftermath of the pandemic
Speaker 5: or that for many people during the pandemic, all they
Speaker 5: had was social media, and so I think that that
Speaker 5: has kind of about made it more valid in our heads. Oh,
Speaker 5: I've used it for years and sometimes perhaps you do
Speaker 5: get some good information, but I think it's people will
Speaker 5: just slow down. You know, you put something in there,
Speaker 5: and you go to social media and you see it,
Speaker 5: and instead of automatically reacting to it, they ask yourself,
Speaker 5: is that right? I mean, it's really easy go to
Speaker 5: Google skull and put a question in and it'll find
Speaker 5: research that will support it. And if you can't find
Speaker 5: anything that supports it, you know. I think another big
Speaker 5: issue can is you know, we always find what we're
Speaker 5: looking for, we do, and if we're looking for something
Speaker 5: to support what we already believe, that's called a confirmation bias.
Speaker 5: Of course we're going to run with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean I refer to that as people
Speaker 1: want affirmation. They don't necessarily want information, and so if
Speaker 1: you can go somewhere that affirms what you think or
Speaker 1: what you've heard, that's exactly right. But I just I
Speaker 1: guess the thing that concerned me the most is if
Speaker 1: you think you have something wrong with you, you probably do.
Speaker 1: And Emily on TikTok or you know, Bob on TikTok
Speaker 1: is not going to be able to help you through
Speaker 1: what's wrong with you. A licensed professional also known as
Speaker 1: a doctor is going to help you through.
Speaker 2: Through with it. Am I right?
Speaker 5: You are right? And anytime I hear a one size
Speaker 5: fits all, now it doesn't. There's not a one size
Speaker 5: because everybody reacts to what's going on to their life differently.
Speaker 5: The genetics come into play, stress comes into play. So
Speaker 5: anytime I hear one size fits all, I start backing up.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, There's so many things I want to get
Speaker 1: to with you today, but that in particular, and I
Speaker 1: think the headline that we've just been talking about is,
Speaker 1: you know, go see somebody. If you can't afford to
Speaker 1: go see somebody, there are ways that you can get
Speaker 1: medical help and they'll work with you. But the other
Speaker 1: thing that struck me here too, is that the amount
Speaker 1: of stress, the amount of mental health concerns that are
Speaker 1: going on, particularly on the job, have risen dramatically here
Speaker 1: according to this report I see from compsych I don't
Speaker 1: know compsyke, you probably know it. What mental health leave
Speaker 1: is up three hundred percent in a very recent time period.
Speaker 1: What's going on with mental health leave at work? Why
Speaker 1: is work so stressful today, maybe than what it was
Speaker 1: even five years ago.
Speaker 5: Well, I think a big part of it is is
Speaker 5: there's no psychological safety at work. People you know, they're
Speaker 5: either being forced to come back to the office and
Speaker 5: that they liked working from home and they felt safe
Speaker 5: in their home. They didn't have to deal with traffic,
Speaker 5: they didn't have to deal with a running errant after work,
Speaker 5: and really they don't feel safe at work. They feel
Speaker 5: like that and part of that. One out of five
Speaker 5: of us can is suffering from either anxiety or depression,
Speaker 5: and sometimes both. So I think that when we're stressed out,
Speaker 5: we were in an overreactive mode. We react to everything
Speaker 5: instead of hitting the pause button and thinking it through.
Speaker 5: And I think that there is help for people. But
Speaker 5: if your manager or your supervisor, you know, struggles with
Speaker 5: anxiety or depression, you don't feel comfortable going with the
Speaker 5: that person, and if you're the manager or the supervisor.
Speaker 5: And I saw a survey that MAMMY, the National Alliance
Speaker 5: of Mental Illness, put out, and they said forty two
Speaker 5: percent of the managers knew that their workers needed help
Speaker 5: with mental health, but they didn't know how to do it.
Speaker 5: And as an organization that something, employee well being is
Speaker 5: something that's got to be factored in to their strategy.
Speaker 1: One out of go back to your beginning of your answer,
Speaker 1: one out of five people, that's twenty percent are suffering
Speaker 1: from anxiety or stress. It's a significant number. Has it
Speaker 1: always Has it always been that way? Or nobody paid
Speaker 1: attention to it because because my guess is is that
Speaker 1: the stresses that this current group, let's just say, from
Speaker 1: millennials younger, that they're experiencing, My guess is those same
Speaker 1: stressors existed for people that are boomers or whatever the
Speaker 1: next group was. It had to have been there in
Speaker 1: the past.
Speaker 2: Did we just ignore it them?
Speaker 5: Well, I think that we did ignore it to some
Speaker 5: degree because we were too ashamed to talk about it.
Speaker 5: The stigma associated was huge and Kim, when I first
Speaker 5: started working in the brain World back in two thousand
Speaker 5: and five, and I state myself here, But we used
Speaker 5: to talk about mental health and I would say, oh,
Speaker 5: since you've got some depression.
Speaker 4: Oh no, no.
Speaker 5: I'm fine, and I was. In two thousand and nine
Speaker 5: when I opened the Brain Performance Center, I decided I'm
Speaker 5: not using that language anymore. I'm not talking mental health
Speaker 5: because it's lonely, nobody wants to talk about it. And
Speaker 5: I switched my language to brain health. And I got
Speaker 5: a lot more conversation out of that because that and
Speaker 5: put it into context of the brain is an organ,
Speaker 5: just like your heart. And if we think there's something
Speaker 5: wrong with our heart, it doesn't take more than a
Speaker 5: day to get an appointment with a cardiologist. But if
Speaker 5: we wake up, you know, we just feel too overwhelmed
Speaker 5: to go to work, or it's just too fatigue. We
Speaker 5: don't think, oh my brain, it's an organ, it needs care.
Speaker 5: We just have nasty conversations with ourselves. Come on, man
Speaker 5: power through, suck it up, buttercup, And that is not
Speaker 5: We're not reacting in the right way. And brain health
Speaker 5: has evolved in my mind. In twenty twenty one, when
Speaker 5: I opened the Brain Performance Institute, I started talking about
Speaker 5: brain capital because the biggest assets any of us have,
Speaker 5: it's our brain.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, No, you're absolutely right. And the whole study
Speaker 1: of a whole mental health. Funding for study of mental
Speaker 1: health has been just horrific by this, by this, not
Speaker 1: anyone administration. It's gone on for decades where there have
Speaker 1: been cutbacks in it, and I just think we need more.
Speaker 1: We need more money for more research to help more people.
Speaker 1: But I I don't, I don't sinse there's a flavor
Speaker 1: for that. And I think largely because of what you
Speaker 1: just said, there was a stigma involved if you if
Speaker 1: you said to someone an employee, er, or a spouse
Speaker 1: or a friend, look, i'm having trouble dealing with this.
Speaker 1: You're right, it was sucking up buttercup for a while.
Speaker 1: And I think it's been overlooked from a financial standpoint
Speaker 1: and also from as from just an empathy standpoint. Over
Speaker 1: the court, it's it's going back into the eighties as
Speaker 1: far as as far back as I can remember. It's
Speaker 1: gone on since then, Well.
Speaker 5: It has, and I think the reason it has is
Speaker 5: because we have not connected the brain. Oh that's my brain,
Speaker 5: Oh that's my body. Well it's one unit. Go to
Speaker 5: the American Heart Association and see what if the feeder
Speaker 5: for strokes and heart attacks anxiety, And you know, we've
Speaker 5: got to start making the connection that whatever is going
Speaker 5: on in your brain, your body is keeping score. And
Speaker 5: if you think about the expense of what heart attack
Speaker 5: costs an organization for insurance and what it might cost
Speaker 5: for some counseling or some coaching or some from neural
Speaker 5: feedback or vital feedback, it's a pretty drastic difference in
Speaker 5: the cost. So I think that if we as a
Speaker 5: society start to own that brain health is just as
Speaker 5: important as fiscal health, and that if we want to
Speaker 5: take care of our workforce and gen zs and millenials,
Speaker 5: they're the most open to this, and they're the biggest
Speaker 5: part of our workforce, the biggest percentage.
Speaker 1: Right, they're taking care of you now, they're taking care
Speaker 1: of you and me in our old age. We got
Speaker 1: to take care of that. You know what I'm saying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she is the author of the book Turn Your Brain
Speaker 1: On to Get Your Game on, the How What Why
Speaker 1: to peak performance? Doctor Lee Richardson, It's always great having
Speaker 1: you on. You stay well. We need to hear your voice. Okay,
Speaker 1: thank you and you you over there. Don't go to
Speaker 1: TikTok for medical advice. The Internet remains what it's been
Speaker 1: for a very long time. It is the land of
Speaker 1: the unwashed, and so many things out it or wrong.
Speaker 1: Seven hundred WLW, All right, welcome back, seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: It is the average American and for the great American
Speaker 1: on this Thursday in calendar year twenty twenty six, and
Speaker 1: we thank you for listening. However you're listening, whether it
Speaker 1: be by this tremendous medium of terrestrial radio or through
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: Welcome on. End.
Speaker 1: Yesterday, of course, there was a confrontation between ICE agents
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis and a woman who was either an operative
Speaker 1: for a group on the left or some innocent bystander
Speaker 1: or someone that was there as a legal observer. The
Speaker 1: facts in this one will come out certainly in court.
Speaker 1: The administration is digging in and supporting this ICE agent
Speaker 1: who shot and killed a woman by the name of
Speaker 1: Renee Nicole Good, who, from at least the video that's
Speaker 1: out there right now, appears to have been using her
Speaker 1: vehicle as a weapon to run down an ICE agent. Now,
Speaker 1: the texture on all of this is that apparently Renee.
Speaker 1: Nicole Good spent most of yesterday before she was shot
Speaker 1: and killed trying to haras ICE agents, and apparently when
Speaker 1: she was asked to get out of the vehicle, she refused,
Speaker 1: backed up and ran straight into an ICE agent using
Speaker 1: her car. If you will, as a point of attack
Speaker 1: against a police officer, here's rule number one. Whatever a
Speaker 1: police officer, whether he be a local cop, a state
Speaker 1: police officer, a federal police officer, whomever it may be,
Speaker 1: when they tell you to stop, stop at that point,
Speaker 1: he controls the situation. You do not, and bad things
Speaker 1: can in In the case yesterday did happen. And of
Speaker 1: course it's unleased riding in the streets or at least
Speaker 1: a portion of the streets in Minneapolis, and ICE isn't
Speaker 1: going anywhere. They're not leaving Minnesota. In fact, it sounds
Speaker 1: like the President may be willing to send more ICE
Speaker 1: agents up there to extract immigrants that are in here
Speaker 1: into this country illegally and get them out. Immigrants that
Speaker 1: have in some way shape form, have committed crimes of
Speaker 1: some sort, either in this country or outside this country.
Speaker 1: This is a story that has not changed very much.
Speaker 1: It reached an unfortunate ending and a very tragic ending
Speaker 1: for one person yesterday in Minneapolis. Standing by the way
Speaker 1: in on all of this is a guy that does
Speaker 1: great work for police organizations all around the country, raising
Speaker 1: money so that each and every police officer everywhere, regardless
Speaker 1: of the size of the city, town, or the burg,
Speaker 1: can have a bulletproof vest. And yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, it
Speaker 1: would appear that these agents up in Minnesota were just
Speaker 1: simply trying to do their job and got into some
Speaker 1: sort of confrontation with someone who was trying, in their opinion,
Speaker 1: to do them harm. I speak of Michael Wetts from
Speaker 1: Investusa dot orgon Michael, thank you for joining us again
Speaker 1: and how are you on this.
Speaker 4: Glory day again. It's always a friarly to be with you.
Speaker 4: We thank you for the opportunity, and.
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's an awful lot going on. It's a interesting
Speaker 6: in you what you were describing, you're very accurately. Can
Speaker 6: What's interesting is we have developed an attitude by the
Speaker 6: liberal left that are propagating this with their elected officials.
Speaker 6: The law enforcement doesn't matter anymore, that you don't have
Speaker 6: to show them any difference or any respect.
Speaker 4: You decide whether if.
Speaker 6: You're giving a lawful order to step out of the
Speaker 6: car or roll down the wind.
Speaker 4: You make the decision as to whether you want to
Speaker 4: buy it by that or not.
Speaker 6: And for some reason we think that we can now
Speaker 6: do that and there're not be any consequences.
Speaker 4: The problem with that kin is this, we.
Speaker 6: Have now degenerated to the position that people can make
Speaker 6: their own decision as to whether to abide by or
Speaker 6: uphole a particular order give it. We have gotten into anarchy.
Speaker 6: That's where we're at in this country. Then, because ned
Speaker 6: no words lag in order exists, that's still where no
Speaker 6: country wants to be. So let's put it where it is.
Speaker 6: I mean, it was a tragic death, but she had
Speaker 6: been given a lawful order. If she doesn't like the order,
Speaker 6: if you thinks it's wrong, that's what we have a
Speaker 6: judicial system for.
Speaker 4: Ole baby order.
Speaker 6: Would you get the court tell hey, this idiot told
Speaker 6: me to do this, and this is why it's the
Speaker 6: idiotic thing. The court agrees the officer will be disciplined
Speaker 6: at that time, but don't decide to.
Speaker 4: Take the matters in your own hands and you start deciding,
Speaker 4: because look at where that gets us. Kids.
Speaker 6: Now, each one of us to go there to decide
Speaker 6: what we would believe is and it is.
Speaker 4: Not an appropriate law.
Speaker 6: I don't like the seventy speed to them, and I
Speaker 6: think ninety sounds pretty good to me.
Speaker 4: So if I now justify it, it's just running down
Speaker 4: the road because I don't think I agree with.
Speaker 6: The seventy speed limit the law. That's where we're a
Speaker 6: headched and that's what they want us to do. Why
Speaker 6: do they want us to do? We like that because
Speaker 6: they want to destroy.
Speaker 4: Law and order.
Speaker 6: They wanted to make it the last thing that they're
Speaker 6: able to take down. Because once you remove law and order,
Speaker 6: crime then goes to the roof. Then the government steps
Speaker 6: in and says, hey, Wilson, I've already said this, we'll
Speaker 6: step in and solve it. So those crazy guns that
Speaker 6: are causing crime, not the person behind the.
Speaker 4: Gun, it's the gun. So we're just gonna go confiscate
Speaker 4: them all.
Speaker 6: Once they've confiscated the gut skin, then what defense do
Speaker 6: you have to do anything that they tell you not
Speaker 6: to do, anything they take you to do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. You had a governor in that state
Speaker 1: that had been fanning the flames against the administration. He
Speaker 1: ran against Trump and lost, and so he's been fanning
Speaker 1: the flames with rhetoric ever since. You have a mayor
Speaker 1: in Minnesota that, like the governor, is under scrutiny now
Speaker 1: for alleged multi billion dollar fraud that's been going on
Speaker 1: with with medicaid in that country. And so when this
Speaker 1: happened yesterday, rather than trying to cool the temperature and
Speaker 1: bring everybody down there was that you couldn't find a
Speaker 1: Democrat yesterday that couldn't find a television camera to give
Speaker 1: their take on something they had no facts on. And
Speaker 1: the governor rather than trying to cool the situation, the mayor,
Speaker 1: rather than trying to cool the situation, both resort to
Speaker 1: inflammatory language, vulgarity in the case of the mayor, and
Speaker 1: did nothing to try and bring the temperature down in
Speaker 1: that city and just let people like the local police,
Speaker 1: whom I have been neutered from what I can tell, in
Speaker 1: Minneapolis and the Feds have sort this thing out and
Speaker 1: let them get victim from perpetrator, let them get everybody. Instead,
Speaker 1: we got a mob again in Minneapolis, and now up
Speaker 1: there the mayor and the governor are more than happy
Speaker 1: to change the narrative away from their medicaid fraud that
Speaker 1: they have allegedly been involved in into this rhetoric against
Speaker 1: what happened yesterday and again today we saw another mob gather.
Speaker 1: Nobody is saying cool it right now, and that leads
Speaker 1: to another that will invariably lead to another inflammatory situation.
Speaker 4: Will it not, Ohn, You definitely will, There's no question.
Speaker 4: You know. What I find interest in Ken is usually those.
Speaker 6: Politicians that are trying to incite or trying to say,
Speaker 6: you know, law enforcement needs to get out of here.
Speaker 4: There's the reason why they are doing that.
Speaker 6: They don't want law enforcement looking at them because of
Speaker 6: what they've.
Speaker 4: Been involved with. And that's what we're finding out.
Speaker 6: The people that are hollered the loudest are the ones
Speaker 6: that are in an investigation, and that's where we need
Speaker 6: to understand this. I make one other point Ken, I
Speaker 6: think is very relevant. Let's talk about law enforcement officers
Speaker 6: in general. These are the guys that at Dine and
Speaker 6: eleven you saw rushing into the building.
Speaker 4: They knew they weren't coming out. That's the kind of
Speaker 4: attitude that most of our cops have, almost all of
Speaker 4: our cops have across the country. They want to serve,
Speaker 4: they want to protect.
Speaker 6: We can't give some deference to that and give them
Speaker 6: respect and credibility for their willingness to lay their lives
Speaker 6: on the line and say, look, we're going to give
Speaker 6: you some different and allow the facts to come out
Speaker 6: before we automatically jump on you on a side, think
Speaker 6: you should be canned, kick spring, you know, thrown to
Speaker 6: the curb.
Speaker 4: We seem to have lost that ken.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I it is that way, unfortunately, And I
Speaker 1: think there are people at work in this in this
Speaker 1: country that that drive money to professional agitators that just
Speaker 1: come out of the woodwork with professionally made signs at
Speaker 1: every turn. Look, okay, explain to us, if you would,
Speaker 1: from a policeman's point of view, what constitutes deadly force
Speaker 1: against a police officer. Some people are saying, well, it
Speaker 1: was a car and she was trying to tell the
Speaker 1: officer to move.
Speaker 2: The officer was one of.
Speaker 1: Three or four I think that were up there, and
Speaker 1: she was trying to tell the officer that was in
Speaker 1: front of her to move. She backs the car up
Speaker 1: and then begins going forward with the car. At what
Speaker 1: point then, would an officer can would he consider that
Speaker 1: moving vehicle? Would he consider that a weapon of deadly force.
Speaker 6: All right, well, let's take this instant less those analyze
Speaker 6: it real quickly here. First of all, that officer has
Speaker 6: occurred to him before. He months ago and he was
Speaker 6: dragged and injured.
Speaker 4: By a vehicle. Okay, so he has history with how
Speaker 4: this works. Second of all, when you.
Speaker 6: Have a vehicle approaching you and you believe they have
Speaker 6: ill intent.
Speaker 4: I believe their intent is to harm, you have a duty.
Speaker 6: To not just protect yourself, but to protect your fellow
Speaker 6: officers and every citizen that's around. You say, well, if
Speaker 6: he'd let's just assume he'd have been run over, Well,
Speaker 6: who else would she have been able to damage? You know,
Speaker 6: this is a split second decision, folks. He doesn't have
Speaker 6: the time to tell a woman stop for a minute.
Speaker 6: Can I turn around to make sure that if you
Speaker 6: get by.
Speaker 4: You're not going to harm anybody else, and you're clear
Speaker 4: to go. He made an aggressive move.
Speaker 6: He realized that he had an obligation to protect his
Speaker 6: fellow officers.
Speaker 4: You know, I tell people this, what if.
Speaker 6: There'd have been a child there behind her and he
Speaker 6: did decide I'm just going to jump out of the way.
Speaker 6: She had to run over a child? What would we
Speaker 6: be saying then about the officer, You didn't do your job?
Speaker 6: Why did you allow that to happen?
Speaker 4: So it's a split second decision.
Speaker 6: He's authorized to use lethal force if he feels.
Speaker 4: That his life is a jeopardy.
Speaker 6: You know, when a car hits you and runs over
Speaker 6: you could do an awful lot of damage, including killing you.
Speaker 6: Your life is in jeopardy, and so she was attempting
Speaker 6: to do that. She was attempted, there's no question when
Speaker 6: you look at.
Speaker 4: The video, to run him over.
Speaker 6: Now in her mind, she made him saying, I'm just
Speaker 6: going to running so hard that.
Speaker 4: He forces gets pushed out of the way.
Speaker 6: I don't know, we don't know what she was thinking,
Speaker 6: but she definitely gave the clue that she was intending
Speaker 6: to use her vehicle to cause damage or harm to
Speaker 6: that officer and anybody else that happened to be in
Speaker 6: her way, and so he had.
Speaker 4: To use force.
Speaker 6: He was authorized to use lethal force if necessary. Here's
Speaker 6: what we define my lethal force.
Speaker 4: You're to a eliminated What we read by eliminate is.
Speaker 6: Eliminate the threat, not necessarily kill the person, but make
Speaker 6: sure that the threat is no longer there.
Speaker 4: In this particular incident. It was such a split.
Speaker 6: Second reaction that he had a chance to just fire
Speaker 6: up a few rounds and he won of them.
Speaker 4: Truck him was deadly. What idiot do we lose?
Speaker 1: Michael? There he is, I think you just dropped You
Speaker 1: just dropped off for a second, Michael. Look it goes
Speaker 1: back to what I said when a police officer says stop,
Speaker 1: you stop, because if exactly right, that guy doesn't get
Speaker 1: out of bed in the morning and he says, you
Speaker 1: know what, I'm going to go out and tell a
Speaker 1: bunch of people to stop. I'm not going to go
Speaker 1: out in the morning and look for somebody to shoot
Speaker 1: and kill. Nobody does that exactly. I don't think anybody. Well,
Speaker 1: there are people in this world that would would probably
Speaker 1: do that, but I can't believe any cop would do that.
Speaker 1: Cop wants to do one thing.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: Cop wants to get up in the morning, he wants
Speaker 1: to go to work, do the best job he can
Speaker 1: possibly do, and go home to his family at night.
Speaker 1: That's all any cop wants to do. So I think
Speaker 1: I think we need to establish that as as a barometer.
Speaker 1: Now Minnesota is now Minnesota, I guess Minneapolis, but in
Speaker 1: the sense the state of Minnesota is going to try
Speaker 1: and handle the investigation into this, and they want to
Speaker 1: have jurisdiction over what happened. That'll be a urinate match
Speaker 1: between the FEDS and the local government there. I think
Speaker 1: the governor and the mayor did a great disservice to
Speaker 1: their community because whether or not this guy winds up
Speaker 1: in a court of law, most probably will the agent
Speaker 1: that did the shooting. They've polluted the jury pool. There's
Speaker 1: not a damned jury they're going to be able to
Speaker 1: get to sit on a jury that hasn't heard about
Speaker 1: this or formed an opinion about it right now, and
Speaker 1: they know where their governor and their mayor stands on
Speaker 1: this thing. So if this does go to trial, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if it's moved out of the state
Speaker 1: of Minnesota.
Speaker 6: Would you what has to be moved out of the
Speaker 6: state that's going to have any kind of similars of justice.
Speaker 4: But here's the only I want to remind our listeners again.
Speaker 6: Is just what you'll you had an officer got up,
Speaker 6: I'm going to go do my job.
Speaker 4: What is my job?
Speaker 2: Job?
Speaker 6: Is to arrest illegal lefrens here who have a criminal record.
Speaker 6: Why anybody would want to leave a murder or a
Speaker 6: rapist out on the street to harm other people.
Speaker 4: Is beyond me. I mean, that's sadistic. Nobody should want
Speaker 4: to do that.
Speaker 6: So I'm going out to do my job a counter
Speaker 6: a split second decision. It appears to me she's not
Speaker 6: only meaning me harm, but possibly anybody else that happens
Speaker 6: to be standing behind me.
Speaker 4: That I can't see.
Speaker 6: So I'm having to draw quickly and make a decision.
Speaker 6: Unfortunately she made that decision. She could have obeyed a
Speaker 6: lawful order prior to that, put it in park and
Speaker 6: gotten out like she was instructed to do. Now, you
Speaker 6: want to try to ruin this cops life by trying
Speaker 6: to have a political decision by the governor the marriage
Speaker 6: center to get some kind of worked up Frenzy, to
Speaker 6: bring an indictment to bankrupt him having to defend himself,
Speaker 6: and to possibly take him away from his family and put.
Speaker 4: Him in prison. That's a sad cry.
Speaker 2: Well, it is, it is, and justice will always prevail,
Speaker 2: I think, But it is sad, and I do think
Speaker 2: that both Fry I guess he's the mayor and the governor.
Speaker 1: We're looking for anything to spend a narrative away from
Speaker 1: you know, what's going on up there with regards to
Speaker 1: medicaid fraud. I mean, it's at the end of it all,
Speaker 1: it is politics. A woman is dead, an ice agent
Speaker 1: is in some sort of trouble because of it, we'll see,
Speaker 1: and it polarizes the community even more. But nevertheless, Michael,
Speaker 1: let's invest USA dot org.
Speaker 2: I'm on your website right now.
Speaker 1: People can donate anything, any amount of money, so that
Speaker 1: all police officers have bulletproof vests. And you've done some
Speaker 1: really good work. You've been at this for over thirty
Speaker 1: years and you've bought a lot. How many vests actually
Speaker 1: have been purchased so far through your website.
Speaker 4: Well, the last count was over seventeen thousand.
Speaker 1: It's phenomenal. Over seven dollars dollars.
Speaker 4: Ways to go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do, you do.
Speaker 4: But I'll tell you here's a great thing. Man. Cops
Speaker 4: now know that you and I support them.
Speaker 6: Before they were having a gout doing job, not knowing
Speaker 6: where the public stand. Now we give them away for
Speaker 6: the public to support him where our law we're told
Speaker 6: us to.
Speaker 4: Realize that it makes a huge difference in their life.
Speaker 1: And you can donate on the website. It's anything. You
Speaker 1: got a buck, it's a buck. If you got a thousand,
Speaker 1: it's a thousand to take anything. All right, Michael, let's
Speaker 1: great insight here. Stay well again. It's invest USA dot
Speaker 1: org is where you can find Michael and the various
Speaker 1: things that he does. It's it's a wide ranging thing
Speaker 1: that he does, not for just cops, but for kids
Speaker 1: and things like that. All right, Michael, you and I
Speaker 1: will visit down the road. Until then, stay well.
Speaker 6: Okay, God bless God bless America can keep doing what
Speaker 6: you're doing.
Speaker 4: In America needs you now more than ever.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Michael. Yeah, yeah, it's what Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: the politics are involved. The rhetoric has just been I
Speaker 1: think atrocious. Leaving aside the fact that a woman lost
Speaker 1: her life, whether she was at fault or not, whether
Speaker 1: the cop was at fault or not, that'll all be
Speaker 1: ferreted out by the time it gets through the legal system.
Speaker 1: Somebody lost their lives, somebody's life could be ruined because
Speaker 1: of it, or he could just be found doing his
Speaker 1: job and enforcing the law. But the rhetoric is just
Speaker 1: it is absolutely nauseating, and I do think that all
Speaker 1: of these people, and they're mostly Democrats, just seized on
Speaker 1: the moment to change the narrative, not knowing what the
Speaker 1: facts were in this case, but get the hell all
Speaker 1: of that medicaid fraud off the front page. And I
Speaker 1: think that that's playing into the political rhetoric that's going
Speaker 1: on in Minneapolis right now, losing sight of the fact
Speaker 1: of somebody's dead and somebody is certainly going to face
Speaker 1: a very long legal battle for doing it. We're at
Speaker 1: one twenty five on this Thursday in January right here
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati on seven hundred W L W.
Speaker 4: Palmer on second down as he drops to throw and
Speaker 4: looking long right side, got Chris.
Speaker 7: Henry outside inside the third and take it down inside
Speaker 7: the Steelers twenty five yard.
Speaker 4: Line by Troy Palmelo.
Speaker 6: And you have Carson Palmer is down.
Speaker 2: Carson Palmer was wriggling around chemov on all Hoffman put
Speaker 2: the hit on Carson Palmer. Hello, hello, quiet, and I'm
Speaker 2: just gonna come broadcasting.
Speaker 1: Zeguy was there on that infamous night and Chris Henry
Speaker 1: was hurt on the same play. That's true, You're right,
Speaker 1: seg That was a play that changed the course of
Speaker 1: bengled m for twenty years, that's for sure, can Brew.
Speaker 1: There were other high notes after that. They made the playoffs,
Speaker 1: I believe in twenty oh nine played the Jets and
Speaker 1: or whatever it was. But I mean it just I
Speaker 1: think Carson Palmer on that night kind of found out that,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe this may not be the place for me.
Speaker 1: That's true. And it went went downhill from there, did
Speaker 1: it well?
Speaker 2: Yeah I did.
Speaker 1: He did a great job coming back from that injury.
Speaker 1: You remember that he but that was the night said that.
Speaker 1: I think Carson said to himself, you know, I'm not
Speaker 1: sure about things here, Ken.
Speaker 2: Brewthe as Dot Reporter, as a proud service of your
Speaker 2: local Tame Star heating and air conditioning dealers, tame Star
Speaker 2: quality you could feel.
Speaker 1: In Cincinnati called.
Speaker 2: Sheldon Braun a Shelley Braun Heating in five one, three, three, eight,
Speaker 2: five seventy seven, sixty five spot and his family calls
Speaker 2: him Shelley. I don't think so you never know, I mean,
Speaker 2: that's true, You're right. I mean maybe as close friends do, well,
Speaker 2: maybe they do, you know, like you right, A lot
Speaker 2: of people call me Shelley. Ron's Roost Restaurant and Bar,
Speaker 2: the world greatest fried chicken it's clucking good over there
Speaker 2: on a good old west side of thirty eight to
Speaker 2: fifty three Race Road. Did I hear they had a
Speaker 2: fire or something? Yeah, last week, but everything's okay. Well,
Speaker 2: what happened somebody discarded a cigarette as they were walking
Speaker 2: out of the place in the carry out area and
Speaker 2: outside the building, and it fell into an open space.
Speaker 1: And they caught they caught it, so thank god.
Speaker 2: You know what, the you know what the moral that
Speaker 2: story is said, don't smoke bingo uh five four two
Speaker 2: two two. Ron himself and his uh son, Ron Junior
Speaker 2: brought down our lunch today.
Speaker 5: Nice.
Speaker 2: Now we got the Reds update. Two Reds have avoided
Speaker 2: arbitration this afternoon.
Speaker 1: That was what we were on our knees praying for.
Speaker 2: Gavin lux settles for five point five two five million
Speaker 2: how much five point five two five million wow? And
Speaker 2: Spencer Steer four million Wow. So no arbitration for those two.
Speaker 2: So Spencer Steer is worth less than Gavin Lucks. I
Speaker 2: guess that's what they're saying. Man. I'll tell you what
Speaker 2: collection of stars there in that team right now. Former
Speaker 2: Red Red's pitcher Michael Lorenzen has signed with the Colorado Rockies.
Speaker 1: That dude's made a lot of money since he left
Speaker 1: this place.
Speaker 2: You ain't a kidding. Another team that can't close things
Speaker 2: out there, ken Brew. Last night was Xavier. They fell
Speaker 2: to Marquette by a point in Milwaukee, and x was
Speaker 2: trailing early on. I think I saw something on twenty
Speaker 2: six to nothing early on in the game, and then
Speaker 2: by thirteen in the second half, they stormed back, took
Speaker 2: the lead with two minutes to go, and failed to
Speaker 2: score the rest of the way. Also, Big Blue Nation
Speaker 2: not happy this morning or today. Missouri upset Kentucky seventy
Speaker 2: three sixty nine. Wild Kas lose their first SEC opener
Speaker 2: since twenty thirteen, and they were booing at Barina last night.
Speaker 2: You know you.
Speaker 1: I monitored this station twenty four hours a day.
Speaker 4: You know this.
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard of a guy named Lance McAllister?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: Okay, so I heard Lance say this, or maybe it
Speaker 1: was on his Twitter feed or whatever he said. Wouldn't
Speaker 1: ESPN be wise to do a thirty for thirty on
Speaker 1: the state of Cincinnati sports? That would probably a psychiatrist. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you long ago, you're right to a
Speaker 1: show when we used to cleure out the consoles and
Speaker 1: the microphones and just brought in the couches and a
Speaker 1: stream bowl, lay down and tell us exactly how they
Speaker 1: were feeling.
Speaker 2: That's right.
Speaker 1: And another team is having trouble, the Bearcats.
Speaker 2: You can get the latest on them Wes Miller Show,
Speaker 2: Rachel Montgomery in tonight at eight oh five after Lance
Speaker 2: and Sports Talk. Unbelieveable women's basketball last night, the Bearcats
Speaker 2: upsetting number eleven Iowa State at fifth third Arena, seventy
Speaker 2: one sixty nine.
Speaker 1: Last night last night.
Speaker 2: Very good. So that's the Bearcats. The Bearcats first win
Speaker 2: over a ranked team since twenty eleven. That's been a while.
Speaker 1: Yes, also eleven since twenty eleven. Lori Peernl might have
Speaker 1: been the head coach back then. Let's see what else all.
Speaker 2: Speaking of the football, Bearcats running back Manny Covey, who
Speaker 2: has entered the transfer portal. Just about a week ago,
Speaker 2: he was named the offensive player of the game at
Speaker 2: the Liberty Bowl and.
Speaker 1: Now look what happened. He was staying and now he's going.
Speaker 2: Well. All I can tell you say is a lot
Speaker 2: of stuff is going on and we need a guy
Speaker 2: like you to keep track of it. I'm trying Ken Brew.
Speaker 2: It's difficult. It's first semi final game in the playoffs
Speaker 2: set for the night Fiesta Bowl. Yes, Miami up against
Speaker 2: Old Miss seven o'clock on ESPN fifteen thirty. Then tomorrow
Speaker 2: night Hoosiers ducks Indiana Oregon in the Peach Bowl in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: I think Indiana is a team of destiny. I think
Speaker 1: so too, and I also got the Heisman trophy wonder.
Speaker 1: But I also think ole Miss is going to win.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm thinking this, but I think
Speaker 1: ole Miss wins this game tonight.
Speaker 2: Let's see in National Football League today, Mike mc Mike
Speaker 2: McDaniel out as head coach of the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 1: Now, how does that happen? I mean, if you're going
Speaker 1: to can the guy, he should have canned him like
Speaker 1: on Monday. I guess, well, I guess they must have.
Speaker 1: He met with the owner today and afterwards that said, see,
Speaker 1: you wouldn't want.
Speaker 4: To be you.
Speaker 1: He's boy Genius. That's his nickname, you know, boy Genius
Speaker 1: hockey cyclones. Can I finish this thought about genius?
Speaker 2: Go ahead?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 1: So he Tyreek Hill got hurt, right, Plus he's a
Speaker 1: head case to begin with. Now to at taga by Lowe.
Speaker 1: Remember two got all those concussions like in the span
Speaker 1: of about four hours. Oh yeah, they got one one
Speaker 1: right here at pay Court Stadium.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: Uh so, I mean he has a quarterback that's undersized,
Speaker 1: he's had his brains rattled several times, and so you're
Speaker 1: going to take it out on Mike McDaniel. I'm looking,
Speaker 1: where's the owner over and above that they've hired now?
Speaker 1: And I don't understand why teams white teams do this
Speaker 1: where they go to the broadcast booth and they hired people.
Speaker 1: Roy Aikman is now helping in the GM search in
Speaker 1: Miami right now. You tell me how Troy Aikman can
Speaker 1: do a game that may or may not involve Miami
Speaker 1: and have impartiality. Same thing with the same is that
Speaker 1: the same thing with is that the thing with the Raiders?
Speaker 1: With the Raiders? How could Brady do a game that
Speaker 1: may or may not involve the Raiders and be impartial
Speaker 1: about it. It's impossible. At the very least, you come
Speaker 1: off as compromised. Oh, ken Brew, we got more.
Speaker 2: We got a bulletin here from Gordon Wittmeyer, the fine
Speaker 2: britt beat writer for the Reds.
Speaker 1: TJ. Friedel avoids arbitration three point eight million. My god,
Speaker 1: all of our prayers are being answered.
Speaker 2: Thrill will with a thrill Benson one point seven to
Speaker 2: five million.
Speaker 1: Just freyd arbitration. It's left and right on players that
Speaker 1: are all basically the same.
Speaker 2: Let's see where I oh Cyclones defenseman Jakes Johnson. Jake
Speaker 2: john is named to the twenty twenty six a EHL
Speaker 2: All Star Classic. Well, it's a hot night in the
Speaker 2: Joe and they're going to be in beautiful Allen, Texas
Speaker 2: all weeks for the game. That's great.
Speaker 1: Sad news, though, Ken Brok, No, what's happened mister goalie?
Speaker 1: Glenn Hall? Passing away at ninety four? Glenn Hall? How
Speaker 1: about that five.
Speaker 2: Hundred and two consecutive games played as a goalie, no backup,
Speaker 2: no nights off, and played all those games without a.
Speaker 1: Mask When the NHL expanded in nineteen hundred and sixty six,
Speaker 1: Who was the first goldtender ever with the Saint Louis Blues.
Speaker 1: How about that? Believe he was with the Blackhawks before then? Correct?
Speaker 1: I think he was one of the Red Wings too,
Speaker 1: wasn't it?
Speaker 2: For a while.
Speaker 1: These guys are all over the place. How old was
Speaker 1: this dude? Ninety four? It's a lot of pucks to
Speaker 1: the face. Let's see.
Speaker 2: Also, you got you got birthday greetings today because I
Speaker 2: got a few? No, go right ahead, Well we leave
Speaker 2: it off. Let we lead it off with the King,
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, nineteen thirty five in the.
Speaker 1: What did you like old Elvis or young Elvis?
Speaker 2: Sick?
Speaker 1: All Elvis all the time? For me, all Elvis all
Speaker 1: the time. That's right, military Elvis, all of them, leather Elvis, yep,
Speaker 1: and shall we say portly Elvis? Correct anything with the King?
Speaker 4: The King.
Speaker 1: See, now there's there's a discrepancy as to whether or
Speaker 1: not he's dead. But the case the case, the King
Speaker 1: is alive. In case Scylla is with him somewhere. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's blowing out ninety one candles today.
Speaker 2: Also, yes, little Anthony of the Imperials birthday today.
Speaker 1: No kidding, I don't even know he's still alive.
Speaker 2: But that's great and last but not least, Yes, one
Speaker 2: of the greats of the tri State, who mister Teddy Kramer,
Speaker 2: has a birthday today.
Speaker 1: Today, we'll have birthday to Teddy. How about that?
Speaker 2: Happy birthday to him.
Speaker 1: It's also David Bowie's birthday.
Speaker 4: How about that?
Speaker 1: Bowie would have been seventy nine years old today. Wow,
Speaker 1: hit it, this is Starman of course.
Speaker 4: Correct.
Speaker 1: David Bowie died two days before his birthday. He died
Speaker 1: on January tenth, ten years ago, at the age of
Speaker 1: sixty nine. And this album sig if you're keeping, if
Speaker 1: you're if you're scoring at home, or if you're just lonely.
Speaker 1: This album came out just right before his date of death,
Speaker 1: and the album cover had a picture of him lying
Speaker 1: in his hospital bed with a mask over his face
Speaker 1: that was taken about a week before his death. Now
Speaker 1: tell me that's not ghoulish, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: That is correct, Drew. So there's all kinds of things
Speaker 1: flying around from a birthday standpoint today.
Speaker 2: I said, big, big, big month for birthdays, way back when,
Speaker 2: Big day for birthday, Big day for birthdays. What else
Speaker 2: we got going on here? That's about it? All right.
Speaker 2: You'll be back with us in less than or about
Speaker 2: an hour, about an hour, a little less than an.
Speaker 1: Hour, Yeah, we'll be here. More fun and frivolity then,
Speaker 1: is that what's good? Correct?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 2: More more trivia about the cyclones and you know everything,
Speaker 2: We'll get whatever you need, ken brew We got it.
Speaker 1: Well, those guys ever evicted, by the way, did they
Speaker 1: have to like go no, you know the the driveway. No,
Speaker 1: it only lasted three days.
Speaker 2: It only lasted like Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, I think,
Speaker 2: or into maybe Monday.
Speaker 1: So they weren't seeking shelter nowhere.
Speaker 2: No, they know, No, it was it was I think
Speaker 2: they were supposed to be evicted like at THEIRS the
Speaker 2: January first, but the deal on the strike only lasted
Speaker 2: three days, so.
Speaker 1: Maybe the holiday helped them. They couldn't get like subpoenas
Speaker 1: or anything, or correction notices.
Speaker 2: And I don't think they had enough. They couldn't get
Speaker 2: the strike signs printed up fast enough, all right, Like
Speaker 2: who you got? Who you got?
Speaker 1: In these playoffs, sig, who's going to the final?
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be the Hurricanes and the Hoosiers
Speaker 2: ken Brewer, Ricanan.
Speaker 1: The Hoosiers, Yeah, I'm hoping for Mississippi or as they
Speaker 1: stay down there, Aissippi. Yeah, I'm hoping for them. But
Speaker 1: I think you're right. I think the Canes are hot
Speaker 1: right now, and I think Indiana is the best team
Speaker 1: in college football. That is correct, all right, sig, Well,
Speaker 1: get us out of the Stege Report and we'll we'll
Speaker 1: muster on until we talk again, ken Brew and Honter.
Speaker 1: Of this Thursday, we leave you with the immortal words
Speaker 1: of the stud Report.
Speaker 8: I'm here today to talk to you about the dumbest
Speaker 8: thing I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 1: These three state reps.
Speaker 8: One of them's a state senator in Ohio. Two of
Speaker 8: them are state reps. They're so ignorant they can't even
Speaker 8: use the website to look at what are population is.
Speaker 8: They're our population. They said, we're two hundred and fifty
Speaker 8: beds over. We're overcrowded. We feed him terrible, the heat
Speaker 8: and air is terrible. We don't put a chocolate on
Speaker 8: their pillow every day and set and tell them we
Speaker 8: love them. That's your state representatives and your state senators.
Speaker 8: We I refer to him in this video as the
Speaker 8: three stooges.
Speaker 1: What that was, Sheriff Richard K. Jones, And it's correct.
Speaker 1: Do you know I think I saw him once. I
Speaker 1: would occasionally go to Hidees Hamilton, which free plays Hi.
Speaker 1: I swear I saw him in there once. I wasn't
Speaker 1: going to go over and because that's the last thing
Speaker 1: you want to do is bother somebody when they're having
Speaker 1: a dinner or I think it was breakfast act correct, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I mean he I saw him eating there and
Speaker 1: he was easy. I think he was by himself. He
Speaker 1: was by himself.
Speaker 2: He plays. He should have gone over and said hi,
Speaker 2: he plays a pickleball with us at Middletown. Oh he does? Yeah? Good, huh,
Speaker 2: very good. No, but eat nobody loses, share wink wink
Speaker 2: to the sheriff. Is that right?
Speaker 1: Nobody loses?
Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1: If you're gonna list, you want to do one to
Speaker 1: five in the for insubordination in the get in your cheat.
Speaker 1: That's right, all right, sig, I gotta go, I gotta
Speaker 1: We're going to get into People are up in arms
Speaker 1: about a lot of things.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: It's about what the health Department said yesterday, RFK about
Speaker 1: the kind of food you should be eating. It sounds
Speaker 1: like the kind of food you should not have been
Speaker 1: eating ten years ago, but now you're supposed to be
Speaker 1: eating it. And one hundred and fifty grams of protein
Speaker 1: to day sick. I'll try to do that all right.
Speaker 1: On seven hundred WLW if today is your white wedding
Speaker 1: Day and it's a Thursday, you've probably got a discount
Speaker 1: on the reception center. Welcome back seven hundred WLW the
Speaker 1: average American in for the Great American on this Thursday.
Speaker 1: In January. Mike McDaniel fired by the Miami Dolphins. Today,
Speaker 1: he said, among other things, I cherish my time I
Speaker 1: had here in Miami. Wouldn't it be nice if one
Speaker 1: of these dudes had got fired, came out and said,
Speaker 1: I think these people are a bunch of clowns that
Speaker 1: I work for, And I can't believe I gave four
Speaker 1: or five six years of my life to this blank show.
Speaker 1: Now that'd be that'd be somebody I'd listen to. But
Speaker 1: of course you can't say that because you wouldn't get
Speaker 1: hired anywhere else. But nevertheless, it is what it is.
Speaker 2: But it would be an interesting time for someone to
Speaker 2: commit into a documentary on the status sports in Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: Now we've been here before. We don't know what it's
Speaker 1: all about. I mean, the Reds signed Gavin Lux and
Speaker 1: spent through Steer. They're fine ball players there, you know,
Speaker 1: but they haven't done anything appreciably to enhance their ability
Speaker 1: to win a championship this coming season. They played for Schwarber.
Speaker 1: They low balled the dude, thinking it would be, you know, well,
Speaker 1: hometown discount, and it's like, no, ballplayers don't play that
Speaker 1: way any sport. Money is what motivates any of these guys.
Speaker 1: Oh well, maybe they'd like to win a championship. Well yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: as long as the money's right. Of course, the Reds
Speaker 1: have a lot of off the field problems with finances
Speaker 1: right now. They don't have a local television deal, and
Speaker 1: they don't necessarily have history on their side last year
Speaker 1: with Terry francona aside. I mean, it's pretty much been
Speaker 1: the wilderness in terms of baseball in this town for
Speaker 1: a long time. Okay, I'll give you the COVID year.
Speaker 1: What was that sixty games? It was like spring training.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the Bengals, we all know what they need, we
Speaker 2: all know what they needed before, and we all know
Speaker 2: they didn't get it. Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase and
Speaker 2: T Higgins to a lesser extent, they can make up
Speaker 2: for a lot of deficiencies the old salve on the wound, right,
Speaker 2: But as I said, all through this past season, there's
Speaker 2: a difference between the ability to score thirty five points
Speaker 2: in a game and having to score thirty five points
Speaker 2: in a game to win. And unfortunately, there were just
Speaker 2: too many, too many games like that this season. So
Speaker 2: let's see what they do on defense. But right now
Speaker 2: they are wasting away quality years with arguably the best
Speaker 2: quarterback they have ever had in franchise history, all due
Speaker 2: respect to Ken Anderson and to Boomer Size and Carson
Speaker 2: Palmer for that matter. And at you see, God, you
Speaker 2: lose five in a row in football last year and
Speaker 2: again this year. Your basketball team can't get out of
Speaker 2: its own way. And it Xavier, although they've got a
Speaker 2: new coach, they've lost four of their last five before
Speaker 2: they played Providence this Saturday, Cincinnati, and you see, they've
Speaker 2: won three times in their last nine games. And now
Speaker 2: they've got to go Sunday to play at Central Florida,
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen in the country. Still with a game against
Speaker 2: number three Iowa before January is done. Yeah, it'd be
Speaker 2: a hell of a thirty for thirty.
Speaker 1: All right, straight ahead, Everything you weren't supposed to eat
Speaker 1: now you're supposed to eat, and everything that you thought
Speaker 1: you were doing from a health eating standpoint, God, not
Speaker 1: so much. We'll get into that next on seven hundred
Speaker 1: WLW all right to eight on this Thursday. Is the
Speaker 1: average American infant the great American? Glad you are with
Speaker 1: us too. I don't say that capriciously, because without you
Speaker 1: what would I be? I'd be one man sitting in
Speaker 1: a room all by himself babbling. And why would I
Speaker 1: have to leave home to do that? We're not a
Speaker 1: healthy nation.
Speaker 4: We know that.
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, fast food industry flourishes, right. We
Speaker 1: want quick, we want it now, we want it now.
Speaker 1: We make resolutions, Oh yeah, we're big on resolutions, but
Speaker 1: following through check your gym in about two weeks. Everybody
Speaker 1: wants to be better physically, stronger and whatnot, but not
Speaker 1: everybody wants.
Speaker 2: To put the work into it. And why is that so?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 2: People think, well, if I just go on the right diet,
Speaker 2: i'd why work out?
Speaker 1: I don't have to do that.
Speaker 2: What is the right diet?
Speaker 1: Just yesterday RFK Junior, the Health and Human Services Secretary,
Speaker 1: unveil the plan that's going to push for you, me
Speaker 1: and everybody else to eat more sat saturated foods that
Speaker 1: contain saturated fats. What would that be well, faty meats, sausage, pies, cheese,
Speaker 1: especially hard cheese, chocolate, confectionery, biscuits, cake, and patries. Wait
Speaker 1: a minute, Wait a minute. That would fly in the
Speaker 1: face of what doctors and diet tissues have been telling
Speaker 1: us for decades. And now we're supposed to start eating that.
Speaker 1: We're ending the war on saturated fats in this country,
Speaker 1: so said RFK Junior yesterday. How does that play in
Speaker 1: with resolutions for twenty twenty six? Well, stand by, here's
Speaker 1: somebody that might know. I've had doctor Eric Niputtia on
Speaker 1: the show many times. In fact, I think the first
Speaker 1: radio interview he ever did in his life was on
Speaker 1: my show. Now he's a sought after speaker, author, and
Speaker 1: owner of a state of the art wellness facility in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis, Missouri. He is with Newputi wellness dot Com
Speaker 1: and kind enough to give us some thoughts here today
Speaker 1: about resolutions and.
Speaker 2: Eating and things like that. And doctor Deputi, how are
Speaker 2: you on this glorious Thursday.
Speaker 4: I'm doing well. Thanks for having me. I'm excited to
Speaker 4: be here.
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're here. You know, everybody wants to be better.
Speaker 1: I don't think everybody really and truly wants to put
Speaker 1: the effort into being better. We are a nation of shortcuts.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any question about that, and I
Speaker 1: suppose it's never more evident than what it is right now.
Speaker 1: Just take a look at Jim's I went to my
Speaker 1: gym two days ago and I'm looking around and I'm
Speaker 1: seeing people I've never seen in my life. I went
Speaker 1: today and I didn't see even those people. So I'm
Speaker 1: just wondering why we have such a difficult time keeping
Speaker 1: the promises we make to ourselves.
Speaker 7: Well, you know, it's the definition of insanity, right, doing
Speaker 7: the same thing again and again, expecting a different result.
Speaker 4: Every year.
Speaker 7: People say New Year, knew me, They're going to lose
Speaker 7: the weight, get in shape, do the thing. But the
Speaker 7: problem is is that we actually try to do this
Speaker 7: through willpower and grit. And I'm telling you that's the
Speaker 7: recipe for failure. If you want to set your up
Speaker 7: for yourself up for success, you've got to have a system,
Speaker 7: you've got to have a plan, and you've got to
Speaker 7: start slow with it. Consistency is the key, you know.
Speaker 7: I tell my patience all the time, I said, you know,
Speaker 7: you'll be better off doing just a little bit over
Speaker 7: a long period of time. Then if you go out
Speaker 7: and try to, you know, overdo it, just like those
Speaker 7: folks in the gym, and they're going to stop doing
Speaker 7: the New year resolutions. And the reality is is that
Speaker 7: eighty percent of New Year's resolutions are completely failed by February.
Speaker 7: So you're spot on, and the gym's going to get
Speaker 7: even more quieter until next January.
Speaker 1: Who said, so, you just said something interesting. You say,
Speaker 1: we try to do it with willpower and grit. What's
Speaker 1: wrong with willpower?
Speaker 4: Well, if you have enough of it, it'll work, right.
Speaker 7: Willpower is great, But here's what I'm telling you, the
Speaker 7: willing yourself getting up and just motivating and willing yourself
Speaker 7: is not going to be the solution for the vast
Speaker 7: majority of people.
Speaker 4: Listen.
Speaker 7: There are certain personalities that can just draw a line
Speaker 7: in the sand and say enough is enough and I'm
Speaker 7: going to do this thing. But most people they can't
Speaker 7: do that. Most people need a simple system. And let
Speaker 7: me just tell you, a simple system is not just
Speaker 7: you know, listening to your favorite influencer on social media
Speaker 7: and following their plan. You need to follow a plan
Speaker 7: that's good for you. But you need to figure out
Speaker 7: what are your goals. And this is the problem. You
Speaker 7: see a lot of people go and they have these
Speaker 7: news resolutions. They say these general things like I want
Speaker 7: to be healthy. Well, that's not very specific. You have
Speaker 7: to have what's called a smart goal. And smart is
Speaker 7: an acronym. It stands for it stands for a specific, measurable, attainable, realistic,
Speaker 7: and you have to put a time limit on it.
Speaker 7: So if I want a smart goal, I want to say,
Speaker 7: all right, I want to lose twenty pounds. I can
Speaker 7: measure that weekly by the scale. It's a realistic goal.
Speaker 7: If I lose twenty pounds in the next you know,
Speaker 7: four months or even less. But I've got to have
Speaker 7: measurable smart you know, action steps to go with that
Speaker 7: and chunk it down into daily actions you can do
Speaker 7: to achieve those goals. It's not hard to do it,
Speaker 7: but I'm telling you most people that just try old
Speaker 7: school will power and grit without a system, they don't
Speaker 7: do it well.
Speaker 1: First step is always the toughest step, There's no question
Speaker 1: about it. But again, something you just said that's interesting.
Speaker 1: You've got to set realistic goals and not try to
Speaker 1: run a marathon on your second day. So I think
Speaker 1: that's probably what is the biggest factor in these gyms
Speaker 1: looking jammed in January and come middle of March, you're
Speaker 1: in there all by yourself, right.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, no, you you're one hundred percent right, I mean, listen,
Speaker 7: the reality is this is that humans want to be healthier.
Speaker 7: We want to have more energy, We want to want
Speaker 7: to live a longer, healthier, more productive life.
Speaker 4: But we can't just do it by going in the
Speaker 4: gym and killing ourselves.
Speaker 7: You know, ken, I tell a lot of my patience
Speaker 7: that your health is a balance of three aspects. You
Speaker 7: have a physical body, you have a chemical body, and
Speaker 7: you have a neurological emotional By what do I mean
Speaker 7: by that?
Speaker 4: Well, most people.
Speaker 7: Understand going to the gym, working out, doing those things,
Speaker 7: but that sets yourself up for failure if you don't
Speaker 7: have the right mentality. First, you don't have the right process. Second,
Speaker 7: and third you got to start feeding your body. Right listen,
Speaker 7: I'm going to tell you right now, if people want
Speaker 7: to get healthy, eighty percent of your health is literally
Speaker 7: in the grocery store and in your kitchen more than
Speaker 7: it is in your gym. And if people start getting.
Speaker 7: For example, most people have a massive protein deficiency. You know,
Speaker 7: men should be getting around one hundred and fifty to
Speaker 7: one hundred and sixty grams a day of protein. Women
Speaker 7: should be getting around one hundred and one hundred and
Speaker 7: twenty grams a day of protein. If they focus on
Speaker 7: getting protein heavy in their diet, they can build muscle,
Speaker 7: build forrmones, they can reduce bloodshug issues, they can live
Speaker 7: a happier, healthier life. But most people look at one
Speaker 7: hundred and twenty grams of protein and go, oh.
Speaker 4: My gosh, how can I do that?
Speaker 7: Well, unless they have a system and process, they're literally
Speaker 7: just setting themselves up for failure. So you've got to
Speaker 7: approach all three aspects.
Speaker 4: Of your health.
Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty grams of protein. That's a lot
Speaker 1: of chicken, doc, I mean, it just it sounds like
Speaker 1: it sounds like a lot. But is the theory in
Speaker 1: and of itself that protein builds muscle and that it
Speaker 1: also would reduce your craving for other things like carbs
Speaker 1: and sweets.
Speaker 4: Well, okay, here's what we do know. There is no theory.
Speaker 7: The actual application and the law and the fact is
Speaker 7: is that the vast majority of human beings, especially over
Speaker 7: the age of thirty, are protein deficient. And the fact
Speaker 7: that someone says that's a lot of chicken tells me
Speaker 7: that you are protein deficient.
Speaker 4: And the reason why I'm protein deficient, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I hear from people, but.
Speaker 2: From it from a chicken.
Speaker 1: All right, So tonight, let's say you're gonna have a
Speaker 1: chicken breast with some maybe some rice, and maybe a
Speaker 1: salad or something like that. So the average chicken breast
Speaker 1: is I don't know, what is it, eight ounces, maybe
Speaker 1: if you're hungry, ten ounces. I know for fact, there's
Speaker 1: not one hundred and fifty grams of protein.
Speaker 4: And that no, no, no, you're right.
Speaker 7: So, for example, chicken, chicken is actually more protein than
Speaker 7: than beef.
Speaker 4: And so for example, that.
Speaker 7: Chicken breast that you talked about, that's about twenty five
Speaker 7: to thirty grams of protein. A steak, a full at
Speaker 7: that's a nice eight ounce fil a is about twenty
Speaker 7: to thirty grams of protein. So if we focus on
Speaker 7: twenty to thirty grams approtein with our three meals a day,
Speaker 7: and then we supplement with one or two good healthy
Speaker 7: protein shakes that have twenty to thirty grams of protein
Speaker 7: in it. It's not that difficult to get a minimum
Speaker 7: of a one hundred and twenty to one hundred and
Speaker 7: sixty grams a day.
Speaker 4: But you're right, you're right.
Speaker 7: If you don't have protein, listen, ken, if you don't
Speaker 7: have protein, you can't make muscle, you can't make hormones.
Speaker 7: And here's what else you can't make. You know, those
Speaker 7: peptides everybody's trying to buy online, get their Your bodies
Speaker 7: make peptides off of protein, and so common sense says,
Speaker 7: we're deficient in proteins, and your body can't.
Speaker 4: Heal and repair.
Speaker 7: And by the way, when you have patients and people
Speaker 7: get on high protein diets, we reverse diabetes, we help
Speaker 7: with heart disease, we help with cholesterol.
Speaker 4: It's a very common sense approach for most people.
Speaker 1: It's just an interesting I've lived through so many generations
Speaker 1: and so many medical trends and so many things to
Speaker 1: do and don't do. I mean, there was a time,
Speaker 1: as you well know in this country, that red meat
Speaker 1: was looked at it and say, if you eat a
Speaker 1: lot of that, you're gonna get cholesterol, your heart's gonna explode,
Speaker 1: and you're dead. So what made red meat fashionable again
Speaker 1: in the protein world.
Speaker 7: Well, listen, I mean, I mean we could, We could
Speaker 7: split hairs with all kinds of conversations. I mean, there
Speaker 7: are There was a time in our life when you
Speaker 7: thought if you got in the boat and went far
Speaker 7: up in the ocean, you literally would fall off the face.
Speaker 4: Of the earth. You mean, okay, so we got you can't.
Speaker 4: Well I've never done it, but I.
Speaker 7: Do know that you can get that one hundred and
Speaker 7: twenty grands of protein.
Speaker 4: So so here's what we do know.
Speaker 7: We do know for f fact, without a shadow of
Speaker 7: a doubt, that red meat is absolutely, unequivocally healthy for people.
Speaker 7: But all things in moderation. You see, you hear all
Speaker 7: these diets like you hear actions diet. You hear low carb,
Speaker 7: no carb, keto, carnivore.
Speaker 4: There's all.
Speaker 7: You know, all these different food plans, and you know
Speaker 7: what food plan works best for you, the one that
Speaker 7: works best for you. And there are most ways to
Speaker 7: find that number one. You could test all of them.
Speaker 7: You could try and see how your body responds. Do
Speaker 7: a month of each one and see how you do.
Speaker 7: Or you can do what I do with a lot
Speaker 7: of my patients. We run a genetic swab test on
Speaker 7: our patients. It measures like nine hundred data points of
Speaker 7: their genetics, tells them how their body processes fast carbs proteins.
Speaker 7: Is red meat good for you versus is you know,
Speaker 7: more chicken good for you? What supplements should you have?
Speaker 7: I mean, if we live in a world now where
Speaker 7: we've got we've got enough science that we can discover
Speaker 7: about ourselves. And that's what I always say is self
Speaker 7: care is the real healthcare. And the more you know
Speaker 7: about yourself, the better you can take care of yourself.
Speaker 7: We shouldn't be reliant on our doctors and social media
Speaker 7: influencers to dictate our health. If it's meant to be,
Speaker 7: it's up to me, And just like your news resolution,
Speaker 7: decide on your goal, put a plan of action in
Speaker 7: the place, have an achievable, measurable smart goal, and just
Speaker 7: chunk it down into little baby steps. If you'll do
Speaker 7: inch by inch in six months from now, you're feeling better,
Speaker 7: looking better. Maybe you're off some medications, maybe you're doing
Speaker 7: all kinds of great stuff. But that's way better than
Speaker 7: doing six weeks of fury and then February's here.
Speaker 4: Nobody's in the gym anymore.
Speaker 7: So.
Speaker 1: I was told by a doctor, once you can get
Speaker 1: on a treadmill and round all day, you're not going
Speaker 1: to run away from a bad diet. But I do
Speaker 1: think though, you just can't have a great diet and
Speaker 1: eat well without some sort of physical activity to achieve
Speaker 1: the kind of health that you want. Am I right
Speaker 1: or wrong on that?
Speaker 4: You're one thousand percent right? Listen.
Speaker 7: The number one deficiency that we as human beings have
Speaker 7: on this planet is a movement deficiency.
Speaker 4: We are made to move.
Speaker 7: Now, we now know without a shadow of doubt that
Speaker 7: muscle is metabolism. You see all these folks that are
Speaker 7: doing all these you know glt ones, and you know
Speaker 7: your injectable, you know fat loss medications, which, listen, there's
Speaker 7: a place for those. We use those in our practices
Speaker 7: as needed, but there's a lot of people that are
Speaker 7: losing a lot of muscle mass with that. So advice
Speaker 7: to your listeners, if you're going to use any of
Speaker 7: those GLP ones, make sure you hitting your protein goals
Speaker 7: and you won't have the muscle loss. But you cannot
Speaker 7: be healthy unless you are moving weights. You want to
Speaker 7: live a longer, healthier life, we need to do resistance
Speaker 7: training period gll.
Speaker 1: P one is ozepic. Basically, we're goal. I just saw
Speaker 1: you can get that now. If you're a consumer of
Speaker 1: these things, you can get that now. So you're not
Speaker 1: condemning those, but they're not for all things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it shouldn't. Shouldn't.
Speaker 1: I mean you're not, But you're also not suggesting, if
Speaker 1: I'm hearing you correctly, that that's a be all and
Speaker 1: end all, I'll stick a needle in my belly and
Speaker 1: I'm all of a sudden going to be, you know,
Speaker 1: the healthiest man that ever walked on the face of
Speaker 1: the earth.
Speaker 7: You're one hundred percent right, I mean that is that
Speaker 7: is the biggest mistake that people make. Listen, there's no
Speaker 7: such thing as a magic bullet, right, There's no such thing,
Speaker 7: and there's no magic potion, pill, lotion or shot that's
Speaker 7: going to automatically reverse your aging and make you feel
Speaker 7: amazing again. You've got to put in the work. And
Speaker 7: I think you said it at the beginning of this conversation.
Speaker 7: People want certain things, but they're not willing to put
Speaker 7: in the work to achieve it. And the reality is,
Speaker 7: it's just like if you won the lottery, we'll look
Speaker 7: at all the lottery winders. What happens to them three
Speaker 7: years later?
Speaker 4: They're all bankrupt. Well, it's the same way.
Speaker 7: Like you're going to get something, you got to put
Speaker 7: in the work to earn it, and unfortunately, help is
Speaker 7: something you have to achieve every single day, whether you
Speaker 7: like it or not.
Speaker 1: Okay, So one hundred and fifty grams of protein is
Speaker 1: what I should be looking at. Okay, just eggs in
Speaker 1: the morning, snake at night, something maybe that's protein based
Speaker 1: without processed foods at noon. I'm still not getting home
Speaker 1: on that. There's no way in God's green Earth I'm
Speaker 1: going to get going to get one hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: grands of protein. So what else am I supposed to
Speaker 1: be doing here?
Speaker 4: Well, let me just tell you this.
Speaker 7: So I personally, I personally get about two hundred ish
Speaker 7: grams of protein per day. That's my protein goal. And
Speaker 7: so I have first thing in the morning, I have
Speaker 7: a protein shake. There's about thirty to forty grams of
Speaker 7: protein in that. Then I'm going to have I'm going
Speaker 7: to have another shake or a protein bar when I
Speaker 7: get to my office and start my day. So by
Speaker 7: the time most people have had their first cup of coffee,
Speaker 7: I've already had close to fifty to sixty grams of protein.
Speaker 4: Great.
Speaker 7: Then about four hours later, I'm going to have a meal.
Speaker 7: At that meal, I'm going.
Speaker 4: To have protein.
Speaker 7: It's going to be a chicken brass, it's going to
Speaker 7: be some type of a red meat something where the
Speaker 7: food itself is at least another thirty to forty grams
Speaker 7: of protein. Then I'm going to have a protein shake
Speaker 7: for my drink. So there's eighty grams, fifty grams, sixty
Speaker 7: grams of protein there. So I've already gotten my one
Speaker 7: hundred and fifty in before I've had lunch. So there
Speaker 7: are ways that you can do this. It's not that difficult,
Speaker 7: and we are working on ways to get protein in
Speaker 7: the body either. It's kind of like when we tell folks, hey,
Speaker 7: you're supposed to have eight eight ounce glasses of water
Speaker 7: every day. When people say, oh my gosh, how do
Speaker 7: I drink that much, we already know they're dehydrated. Because
Speaker 7: if eight glasses of water seems like a lot, we got.
Speaker 4: Some work to do.
Speaker 1: Well, I'll be honest with you, that's a number. Now
Speaker 1: you've given me a goal. Now I've got to figure
Speaker 1: out on my own or either you know, move out
Speaker 1: to where you are and you can walk me through
Speaker 1: whatever day you got. If you have a book or
Speaker 1: anything that talks.
Speaker 2: About that we do what we do.
Speaker 4: I do actually have a book about it. Yeah.
Speaker 7: If you go to my website, Eric Napouti dot com
Speaker 7: that's e ri cnput dot com, you can see a
Speaker 7: bunch of the project books and et cetera that are written.
Speaker 7: There's a book called Becoming Bio Limitless. You see, we
Speaker 7: have the ability to tap into our limitless health potential.
Speaker 7: It's truly limitless. We've got guys in their seventies and
Speaker 7: eighties now doing fifty sixty pull ups on television and
Speaker 7: one hundred push ups like you know, seventies to new thirties.
Speaker 7: So as long as you're getting with the program and
Speaker 7: doing the right thing, you can live a long, happy, healthy,
Speaker 7: productive life.
Speaker 1: Wow, seventy is the next thirty, which means that the
Speaker 1: audience maybe that's thirty five years old. You're an embryo,
Speaker 1: so so not too early to start. This is enlightening doc.
Speaker 1: It really is good stuff. I don't mean to get
Speaker 1: fixed on the amount of grams, but it certainly is
Speaker 1: out there. And if it works, it works. And you
Speaker 1: mentioned your website. If people go there, what else are
Speaker 1: they find besides your book? Can your smiling face?
Speaker 4: Well, they can find all kinds of stuff.
Speaker 7: Listen, you can find the link to where we talk
Speaker 7: about doing that nine hundred thousand data point genetic testing
Speaker 7: that we do that literally gives you the map of
Speaker 7: how to live your life. We've got all kinds of
Speaker 7: great resources on our website.
Speaker 4: I mean, listen.
Speaker 7: We always talk about how knowledge is power, but wisdom
Speaker 7: is taking what you learn and applying it to your life.
Speaker 7: And just so you know, one gram of protein per
Speaker 7: lean body mass is what you should be getting. So
Speaker 7: if you're a two hundred pound person, you should be
Speaker 7: getting somewhere around one hundred and fifty to one hundred
Speaker 7: and sixty grams a day of protein.
Speaker 4: If you're you know, and you can calculate that. If
Speaker 4: you're a.
Speaker 7: Woman, most women need about one hundred and ten t
Speaker 7: one hundred and twenty grams a day. By the way,
Speaker 7: we get those into people osteoporosis, chronic pain, anxiety, depression,
Speaker 7: feeling old and tire goes away.
Speaker 4: Get some protein in your system.
Speaker 1: Hey, can you move to Cincinnati? I'll guarantee you now.
Speaker 4: But I'm virtual man, We're global.
Speaker 2: It's always great catching up for you. Doc.
Speaker 1: Good luck stay, here's me telling you to stay.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: What an idiot I am, But I appreciate your time today.
Speaker 4: Thanks, have a great day.
Speaker 1: You well, you bet.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go out and buy myself a cow tonight.
Speaker 2: Get some of that lean protein, that's all. That's a
Speaker 2: big number though, one hundred and fifty grams of protein
Speaker 2: a day. All right, I guess why not if that's
Speaker 2: the trend coming up on two twenty six, on this Thursday,
Speaker 2: it's the average American in for the Great American News
Speaker 2: Radio seven hundred w l W.
Speaker 1: How am I doing today?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Hello, quiet, and I'm scos. I'm broadcasting Bony god seg.
Speaker 2: I have a question for you. Go ahead, glad you're here.
Speaker 2: Something I want to ask him, and I want to
Speaker 2: ask you for a long time. Okay, you've been around
Speaker 2: the town a long time, right, I mean there's been
Speaker 2: around this radio station a long time.
Speaker 1: Yes, sir. There may not be anybody that's been here
Speaker 1: longer except well Willie maybe that's been There can't be
Speaker 1: anybody that's been at the station. Tom Moran and sales
Speaker 1: have been there for fifty four. I'm telling you about
Speaker 1: people on the radio radio, not those sell this stuff
Speaker 1: that lets us go on the radio, though Tom's pretty god.
Speaker 1: But anyway, have you ever seen the state of Cincinnati
Speaker 1: sports as low as it is right now?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Now, this could be the Nator as they.
Speaker 2: Say, of our existence, correct, and that kind of urinates
Speaker 2: me off. Yeah, that's true. There's nothing. There has been
Speaker 2: nothing to cheer about for years in this city. I mean,
Speaker 2: I mean the years every so often, every so often. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we now have two Indoor Football League teams.
Speaker 1: Are you aware of this? That's what I heard? Yes?
Speaker 2: Two?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we had two hockey teams do it one time?
Speaker 2: Right, we did?
Speaker 1: We had the Mighty Ducks and the Clones. Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: Well I had a chance. We had a chance in
Speaker 1: joining the National Hockey Leg at one time, and instead
Speaker 1: close they took the buyout. That's true. I mean guys
Speaker 1: like build a Wit I think he can was still involved.
Speaker 1: I think Castolini was actually involved, took the buyout, took
Speaker 1: the buyout. Could have been in the NHL. Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: And now here we are sick. We sit here and
Speaker 1: we're looking for anything something immor.
Speaker 2: So a little somebody right, Well, you know you got
Speaker 2: you know, NK, you and Miami are having great years
Speaker 2: so far, ken Brew they are.
Speaker 1: Miami's having a hell of a year.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Miami's what sixteen and ohble and
Speaker 2: the Norse have got like Mi Alma Maters got like
Speaker 2: ten or eleven twelve wins already, So you know, at
Speaker 2: least those fans are happy.
Speaker 1: But the you know, Bengals, Reds, U See Zavi, their
Speaker 1: roots for U See basketball or Xavier basketball. It's not
Speaker 1: going to root for Miami. That's true. You you're correct,
Speaker 1: that's true.
Speaker 4: You're right.
Speaker 2: Universally.
Speaker 1: You got the Reds and you got the Bengals at
Speaker 1: FC Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: That's true that they've had success, but they haven't gotten
Speaker 2: to the you know, they haven't gotten to the top
Speaker 2: of the mountain yet.
Speaker 1: You know what we don't have here in town and
Speaker 1: in a generation is a trophy. We need a trophy.
Speaker 1: That's true. Yeah, where's the trophy? The Reds last one
Speaker 1: a trophy in ninety Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're if you're under the age of forty,
Speaker 2: you don't know what it's like to have a trophy
Speaker 2: from your baseball team.
Speaker 1: Now, the Bengals have never had a trophy. I mean,
Speaker 1: they've had the conference championship, the trophy that's.
Speaker 2: Never had and you know, and nobody sees those because
Speaker 2: they're in they're in the entrance to the offices, and
Speaker 2: that you can't go in and.
Speaker 1: Over above that, it's like Ricky, Bobby, that means you
Speaker 1: were the first loser, right, I mean it's kind of like,
Speaker 1: you know, I really I'm being very sincere for the
Speaker 1: fans here. I really do. I always have, I always have.
Speaker 1: But think about that, if you're a Reds fan, the
Speaker 1: last World Series championship was thirty six years years ago.
Speaker 1: If the age of comprehension is five, if you're under forty,
Speaker 1: you've never had that, and forty you're halfway to death
Speaker 1: at that point. That's correct. So I just I feel
Speaker 1: for the fans.
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 1: It's kind of depressing, is what it is. Get me
Speaker 1: out of this depression, seg all right, ken Brew.
Speaker 2: They Stoos Reporters a proud service of your local Temestar
Speaker 2: heating and air conditioning dealers. Temestar quality you can feel

Speaker 1: doors classic keep your eyes on the road and your
Speaker 1: hands on the wheel Roadhouse Blues. This is significant today,
Speaker 1: said I'm gonna tell you why. He turns eighty today.
Speaker 1: One of the great guitarists in rock and roll history,
Speaker 1: Robbie Kreeger turns eighty. How about that? I thought you
Speaker 1: were gonna say Driver's ed was invented today, rock you up.
Speaker 1: But for all I know, it might have been Robbie
Speaker 1: Krieger and the guy playing the harmonic on this is
Speaker 1: built on the song as G Poglici. Now, who is
Speaker 1: g Poglici? You're saying, who is g police Pliski? Are
Speaker 1: you familiar with the group called the Association? I've heard
Speaker 1: of him?

Speaker 1: the true eight of rock and roll, don't I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: The guy that's playing harmonica here was built as g
Speaker 1: PO Gleasi. He told me he was brought in to
Speaker 1: play on this record simply to keep Jim Morrison calm. Really,
Speaker 1: any idea who this lead singer could be that was
Speaker 1: playing harmonica?
Speaker 2: None?
Speaker 1: Do you know the group called the Loving Spoonful John
Speaker 1: Sebastian Bingo. Wow, And he had to be built as
Speaker 1: g PO Gleasi because he was under contract to another
Speaker 1: another how many times? How many times did that happen
Speaker 1: over the years? I don't know with that seg It
Speaker 1: would stock. How about sixty nine I was there, it
Speaker 1: would Stock. Yes, they had a massive thunderstorm and it
Speaker 1: knocked out the electricity, and so they were trying the
Speaker 1: promoters were trying to figure out a way to get
Speaker 1: the water off the stage so they can get the

Speaker 1: On seven hundred WLW, seven hundred WLW, the day is
Speaker 1: about to reach. It's broadcast apex for I am just
Speaker 1: a conduit, a bridge, a vessel as it may be,
Speaker 1: to take you from noon until three until we hit
Speaker 1: the high note. Here on seven hundred w WELW with
Speaker 1: the world famous dance team of Eddie Fingers and Rocky Boyman,
Speaker 1: and standing by to join us right now is one
Speaker 1: member of that team, the most ravaging red hand this
Speaker 1: side of Harrison Rocket Jay Boyman. How are you on
Speaker 1: this glorious day?
Speaker 4: N I'm wonderful you having a great New year.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, every days an adventure Rocket. I
Speaker 1: woke up every day thinking it's New Year's Day. Part
Speaker 1: of the problem with getting old you don't know what
Speaker 1: the hell yeah right on, and and why you don't
Speaker 1: do anything. It's just kind of like but you know what,
Speaker 1: it beats the alternative, doesn't it correct? It certainly does.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, I view most things in
Speaker 1: life with a cynical lie.
Speaker 2: I just do.
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I do.
Speaker 4: So.
Speaker 1: I'm watching the events unfolded Minnesota yesterday and the minute
Speaker 1: that that woman was shot, and it was tragic and
Speaker 1: it should never happen, and the reasons for it happening
Speaker 1: are wide and varied and deep in political nature. Nobody
Speaker 1: wanted to see anybody lose their life. Within ten minutes,
Speaker 1: ten minutes, every single Democrat is run into a microphone
Speaker 1: yelling and screaming about how terrible this is and how
Speaker 1: Trump caused it, and how Ice is bad. And I'm
Speaker 1: sitting there watching this, and I'm saying, none of these
Speaker 1: people give a rat's rear end about the woman that
Speaker 1: got shot. They're trying to change the narrative of what's
Speaker 1: going on in Minnesota, which is haunting that party right now.
Speaker 1: Am I being too cynical with that view?
Speaker 4: No, not at all.
Speaker 9: It's the old never let a crisis go to waste.
Speaker 9: And that's the part about politics and politicians that you hate,
Speaker 9: is you get the feeling and hopefully I'm wrong, but
Speaker 9: you get the feeling there was a giddiness inside some
Speaker 9: of these and where they go Wait a minute, Okay,
Speaker 9: well great, So now this takes all the eyeballs off
Speaker 9: the Somali daycare fraud and all the investigation there, and
Speaker 9: now I get to get myself on MSNBC or whatever
Speaker 9: it is to promote what I'm doing and elevate my profile.
Speaker 9: It's the sick part of it, but it happens over
Speaker 9: and over and over. It's going to continue to happen.
Speaker 1: I mean, even Hillary Clinton stopped farting into the cushion
Speaker 1: on her couch and wait on this, and I'm thinking,
Speaker 1: what are we doing here? First of all, they've polluted
Speaker 1: the jury pool in Minneapolis. There's no way in HELIVI
Speaker 1: goes to trial, and there's no guarantee that it will.
Speaker 1: You're not going to have that case tried or any
Speaker 1: kind of judicial action taken in the state of Minnesota.
Speaker 1: There's no way it can happen. So it leaves their
Speaker 1: purview at that point.
Speaker 2: To begin with.
Speaker 1: I just think we rush to judgment on so many
Speaker 1: things in this country right now that we really ever
Speaker 1: truly get to the heart of what the issue is,
Speaker 1: and the issue is Trump. Bad get Orange Man fan
Speaker 1: flames on Trump any way you can. And unfortunately, the
Speaker 1: fanning of the flames and the hot rhetoric from people
Speaker 1: like Tim Walls and other had a lot to do
Speaker 1: with what happened yesterday as anything. And I just think
Speaker 1: we got to shut up at some point in this
Speaker 1: country and just watch how things unfold, unfettered without all
Speaker 1: this opinion what we do.
Speaker 9: But you know, people respond to incentives, and right now,
Speaker 9: Tim Walls or the Minneapolis mayor who was throwing f
Speaker 9: bombs out, you don't feel any pain from that. No
Speaker 9: one certainly close to him that he cares about us saying, Hey,
Speaker 9: I not a good idea to really comment on this yet.
Speaker 9: How about we just wait a few days, let's talk. No,
Speaker 9: that that never happens, so they're not incentivized to shut up,
Speaker 9: so they just keep on talking.
Speaker 1: So I don't really know.
Speaker 9: I don't know if there is a solution to that,
Speaker 9: But that's that's how it's going to continue to be.
Speaker 1: I think, well, what are you and your sidekick talking
Speaker 1: about today, because I'll be tuning in.
Speaker 9: Yes, Well, right out of the gate, we're going to
Speaker 9: talk about youth sports, all right, And there's a great
Speaker 9: article out and the title of the article is fifty
Speaker 9: dollars to try out and three thousand to play. And
Speaker 9: this is something that is very close to me, and
Speaker 9: I understand both sides of youth sports. And on one hand,
Speaker 9: you know, the rec side of it, and then the specialization,
Speaker 9: you know, AAU tournament side, you know. So we're gonna
Speaker 9: have a good discussion about that and just kind of
Speaker 9: how things got to this point where sports cost so
Speaker 9: much to play as a youth. So that'll be at three.
Speaker 9: At four o'clock, We've got our fitness guy PJ. Street
Speaker 9: going to join us for the first time in the
Speaker 9: new year. Tell us how to get in shape, Ken,
Speaker 9: that's a good thing. And then we have our plastic
Speaker 9: surgeon friend, doctor Bruce Herman, joined us at five, and
Speaker 9: many many other things in between.
Speaker 1: Ken, what are you guys going to get a lift?
Speaker 1: What are you gonna have?
Speaker 4: You go? Guy?
Speaker 2: Is he gotta give you a Brazilian butt lift? You
Speaker 2: want to and Eddie a waxing in a Brazilian butt lift?
Speaker 2: That's what I asked him about. But I don't like
Speaker 2: to do that myself. I like to leave that to
Speaker 2: the pros, which which.
Speaker 4: Any number. Kid.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you need a mirror for either.
Speaker 1: All right, well you guys have a great show. I'll
Speaker 1: be tuning in and we'll talk again here real soon.
Speaker 1: All right, Ken, you're the best. Thanks there they are,
Speaker 1: Rocky Boyman and any fingers stand by for more Mayhem
