Let's have blue maybe 0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:23.160 or a blue ripple because it's currently only been a 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:27.400 year since the Republican takeover. Nonetheless, to put things in perspective, 0:00:27.440 --> 0:00:30.080 he's a pollster from Crosstown consulting in northern Kentucky. That 0:00:30.120 --> 0:00:33.400 would be Kevin Burton, who's consulted more than a few 0:00:33.400 --> 0:00:35.159 people in this race. Kevin, welcome, how are you? 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:37.400 Thank you for having me Scott. 0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:40.000 A good day for you. I know your candidate's all 0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:40.760 swept up right. 0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:43.480 It was a good It was a good night. 0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:48.120 You know, it's all about understanding the political environment and running, 0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:50.879 you know, running with that and it's that simple. 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.000 But yeah, the. 0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:55.959 Council race and the Mary race was called early. It 0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:57.760 was a good night if you were them. 0:00:58.240 --> 0:00:58.600 It was. 0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:02.840 We see that the midterm referendum that the party in 0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:06.640 power is refuted at the mid term. This feels like 0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:08.280 it's starting a little earlier. Am I right about that? 0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:10.320 I mean, literally, it's been nine of a year, a 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:14.240 year into Trump's you know, Trump tom across America, and 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:17.240 I think, as you said before, it's the standard beards 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.120 of people at the top that's kind of set the tone. 0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:21.800 Are we starting to see that swing earlier than ever before? 0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:25.520 I mean, I would go back to even twenty seventeen, 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:29.800 and it was very similar if people can remember, I know, 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:30.800 it was a long time ago. 0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:32.600 Trump. 0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:34.479 If Trump is not on the top of the ticket, 0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:38.560 he is, he has lost every election. Yeah, yeah, but 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:42.039 Trump is the anomaly. And that's the one thing that 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:46.240 when he is not on top of the ticket, it 0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.600 is a whole different ballgame. We've seen it in twenty seventeen, 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:53.760 twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, you know, twenty one, twenty two. 0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:56.120 Trump is the outlier. 0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:01.280 And you know, I will the biggest shock to me 0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:04.160 was to see New Jersey, which you know Trump did 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.760 so well. Yes he lost, but he got it within 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:11.679 five which was kind of unheard of. For instance, wing 0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:14.320 back to I believe it was like fifteen yeh or 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:18.840 you know, all the inroads he made in the minority 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:24.720 communities like in it really shifted back. And it's as 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:29.080 simple as it's the economy stupid. You know, every election 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:34.680 is about the wallet. And if you're in power, you 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.520 you know, and people are having hardships, they're going to 0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:40.000 take it out on you. And a lot of ways, 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:42.720 the Trump administration is doing the same problem that Biden did, 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:49.120 downplaying inflation and down playing how much the average person's hurting. So, yeah, 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:51.480 you know your four oh one k might be doing well, 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:52.919 that's not everyone. 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:56.000 Yeah, yeah, I mean I think you know that illustrative 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:59.000 of New York City with Mom Donnie. He feels like 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:03.040 the he feels like the anti Trump because total grassroots 0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:05.560 effort right in social media. He's going to clubs, he's 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:09.360 hanging out with younger voters, the youngest voters, social media, 0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:12.120 digital campaign, no TV, he's not doing Good Morning America, 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:14.680 no legacy media, nothing like that. And he just simply 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:19.160 comes out of nowhere and reset how politics is going 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:21.920 to be run in the future, for sure, And so 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:25.320 he blasts the gen zs, the young millennials, and they 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:26.360 have now arrived. 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:28.000 As a voting block. No, that's New York City, that's different. 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.919 But but again that starts there in a pretty young city, 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:33.400 and that wave kind of sweeps this way as we 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.520 saw what happened in Anderson Township for example. 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:40.440 Yeah, and you know, from an Donnie he is one 0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:44.240 of those just regardless of what you think of him politically. 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:49.920 He has the aura. He has it, Yeah, he does. 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:52.480 And you know, and it's actually very similar to both 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.720 Obama and Trump that he came out of nowhere and 0:03:55.760 --> 0:04:02.720 it was a meteoric rise and he captured. 0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:01.680 The soul of the voter. 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:06.400 And that's something that no consultant can tell you to do. 0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:07.560 You just have it or you're not. 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:12.440 But then for Anderson, you know that Anderson's completely shocking 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:14.600 to get back to the local side. You know, in 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:19.599 twelve years, it went from being a super red you 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:21.719 know township to now almost all blue. 0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:22.120 Yep. 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:26.800 So yeah, two Republican trustees replaced by two Democrats on 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:28.720 the three member panel. And also I'll point out the 0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:30.960 Foesil school board flipped blue as well. 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:32.480 Yeah. 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.880 Yeah, So you know, it's very interesting because you know, 0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:39.680 during the Trump era of politics, we have seen rural 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:44.560 areas get redder, cities get bluer, and really the suburbs. 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:48.719 The Anderson townships, the you know Florence Kentuckys of the world. 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:53.880 Those are what decide really national elections, state elections, and 0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:57.800 you know they swung for Trump last year, yep, but 0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.839 they came back overwhelmingly now to the the which I'm 0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:04.880 always shocked. I've never met someone who is a swing voter. 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:09.000 And if you guys are you guys are amazing. I 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.280 would love to meet you guys sometimes yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:14.680 The imaginery, yeah, but the election out they're lost in 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:16.839 one in the suburbs because, as you mentioned, the rural 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:19.800 areas are pretty red, the cities, urban airs pretty blue. 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.480 But we're seeing the blue kind of sweep to areas. 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:24.920 You know years ago was Montgomery and Blue Ash and 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:26.480 it's Anderson Township. 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:28.440 It is. 0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:36.360 And you know, so that's going forward for twenty six, seven, eight, 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.520 all resources for either party should just be all put 0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:44.720 in to the Anderson townships type, you know, the suburbs, 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:47.840 because that's where you win or lose election. That's how 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:50.919 Joe Biden won in twenty twenty, That's how Donald Trump 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.080 won in twenty four. 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:55.560 The suburbs. 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:59.400 So all resources going forward, I would not be shocked 0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:03.919 if you saw both sides just pour heavily into you know, 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:08.680 digital grassroots knocking in the suburbs, because that's where you 0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:11.599 win or lose an election. You're not gonna win or 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:15.599 lose the election in rural if you're Republicans or the 0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:18.200 city if you're dem So you got to turn you 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:19.720 got to get the suburbs voters. 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:20.120 Right. 0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:21.760 Well, I'll even point out where I am, you know, 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:24.000 like a Mason and Warren County that's been deep red 0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:25.360 for a long time, pretty red for a long time, 0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:27.680 but even that we're starting to see change. Emmy Greg 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:30.000 Landsman one reelection there and we'll see what happens with 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:31.760 the registering of Him'm gonna get him on the show 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:33.320 in the next few days to talk about that. But 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:37.239 I know, it's like the council is kind of flipping, 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:40.320 maybe not blue, but more moderate. In the past, it 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.200 used to be really really rock ribbed, super Trump mega, 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.680 even though their mega candidate missed getting elected for the 0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:50.640 second or third time. So it's interesting how even Warren County, 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:52.800 which is pretty red, is starting to get back towards 0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:53.239 the middle. 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:54.320 Oh. 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:58.520 You know, and elections are always a pendulum, and you know, 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:00.800 they go one way and the other and right now 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:02.760 we're kind of getting back to the middle. I mean, 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:05.560 you know, for Hamilton County, when I first started, it 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:09.920 was a swing county and now every single basically elected 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.560 official from judges all the way down are all blue. 0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:19.040 So it's just in a very fascinating political shift during 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:19.840 the Trump era. 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.400 You know, in school, you would always learn. 0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.000 About the nineteen sixty eight, the civil rights era, how 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.480 it changed the map, and it's very similar now. Yeah, 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:33.480 you know, Trump has changed the political landscape and how 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:36.960 you win elections, and it's just been fascinating for someone 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:39.840 for what I do, how to get you know, the 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:46.120 fifty plus one vote to win an election, and that's 0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:47.480 been the biggest change during. 0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:47.880 The Trump era. 0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:51.240 Yeah, so this is more a referendu amount affordability in 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:52.480 the pocketbook or Donald Trump? 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:52.800 Are both? 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:55.040 I think it's both. 0:07:55.160 --> 0:08:00.560 I mean, you know, yes, you know, Madonna really hit 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:02.840 on something and I think I want to be shocked 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:08.000 as Democrats to play on this nationally. Yeah, Elon Moss, 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:11.640 Jeff Bezos are getting how much more billions while you're 0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:13.040 struggling to pay for eggs? 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:14.720 Easy to affordability. 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:19.960 Affordability will always be the number one issue I know, 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:21.679 James Carville, and I said it earlier. 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:23.160 It's the economy stupid. 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:28.280 Always yeah, yeah, always, yeah, always, it's the number one issue. 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:33.080 And frankly, if people are feeling it at home, they're 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.199 going to take out their frustration on the ballot box. 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:37.360 Yeah, and I think it's true, you know, Trump saying, Hey, 0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:39.120 I'm gonna come in the first day, You're gonna get 0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:41.000 more money, it's gonna be overnight. I'm gonna fix all 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:43.679 these things and make these grandiose promises on the campaign trail, 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:47.920 which politicians often do, but Donald Trumps has really turned 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:49.480 that on its ear, like he's really good at it. 0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.440 If it's been a year later and you're seeing things 0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:55.439 get worse, stagnant, or just simply not better, uh, then 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:57.440 you go to the alternative and now you've got a 0:08:57.440 --> 0:08:59.600 guy like mom daddy making these promises, which we'll see 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:01.120 what happened into the year. And I'm guessing a lot 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.720 of this stuff's simply not going to happen. I wonder 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:05.959 and again, three years from now, maybe he is your 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.600 Democratic front runner. If he can be successful, I doubt it, 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:10.960 but we'll see about you know, free buses and we're 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:12.920 gonna freeze rent, and we'll see how that works out. 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:16.200 But back to the local race here, I'm not surprised 0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:18.199 by Aftab's win. I said, I think he's gonna win. 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.960 You never want to say never, but I think he's 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.520 more than likely. If our betting, I would bet handily 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:25.080 that he would have won the election he did. But 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.640 are you surprised by the margin that he won by 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:29.800 him almost eight and ten voters. 0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:34.360 Yes, I thought my over or under for him was 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:38.640 about sixty five seventy percent. But it also just speaks 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:42.080 to how well of a machine he has. I mean, 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:48.240 Aftab has won every election besides the one against Shabbit, 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:52.440 which is self inflected wound, and the city is just 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:56.480 that blue. You know, Harris won seventy five to twenty five. 0:09:56.679 --> 0:10:02.520 So it's very similar to the Harris number, and it 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.360 just points to all the outside noise on social media 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:07.600 and talk radio and everything. 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:08.360 You know, y city. 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:15.200 The people in the city actually don't care. They care 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:20.880 about you know, issues about rent, about social issues, and 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:24.080 you know, for Astap, this gives him a referendum like 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.160 he has a mandate, like so with the police chief, 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:30.360 the city manager. When you win almost eighty percent, I 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.240 don't care who you are. You have a lot of 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:36.640 cliche now, so it's gonna be very interesting to see 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.200 how he does that. And you know, he his campaign 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.600 was very kind of smart. They didn't try to make 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:42.960 too much of an issue. 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:45.640 You know. 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:48.840 Props to him and his team. They clearly knew what 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:50.679 they were doing, and it showed last night. 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:51.720 Yeah, yeah, it did. 0:10:52.640 --> 0:10:53.320 But I don't know. 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:54.960 I think the way they handle a lot of these 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.760 things relative to crime was not good at all. Does 0:10:57.800 --> 0:11:00.000 that just empower them to do more of the same 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.000 down on this because I get I don't live in 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:04.840 the city, and I know the crime isn't rampant downtown. 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.880 There's just areas and pockets that are difficult. A lot 0:11:07.880 --> 0:11:11.640 of the policies and quite honestly, the missteps and incompetence 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:14.000 how they handle Terry Sieg. You know, they has voters 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:15.920 didn't give a damn and you know that he doesn't 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:17.640 have to please me, you have to please voters. I 0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:19.960 get that whole thing. But does that just give them 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:23.000 more leeway to go, Okay, well, they don't care about this. 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:28.160 I can I can definitely, you know, I can get 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:31.679 police officials to charge folks after the fact, and I 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:34.320 can you know, suspend someone before I fire them and 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:35.560 voters don't care? 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:36.800 Is he just going to do more of that? 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:39.800 I mean, at the end of the day, when you're 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:43.240 an elected official, you know the voters are the people who. 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:44.040 Keep you in check. 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:47.280 And when you win eighty percent and when you sweep 0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:50.360 all council, the voters have clearly made up what they 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:54.920 think is the most important issue. So you know them 0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:57.920 swept all counsel. They swept them as all the trustees, 0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:02.680 school boards and Handleton County, so you know the crime 0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:04.719 issue is not as big of an issue to the 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:08.360 voters of Hamilton County as it appeared. 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:10.720 No, that makes total sense. 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:15.000 Scott's Solondlaw with Jeff Jeff Kevin Burton from Crosstown Consultanting. 0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:18.600 He's an upholster and political wonk if you will, had 0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:20.199 a hand in a number of the people winning election 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:22.760 last night in the local area, and just some observations 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.680 as to why the dem swept and what is behind 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:28.720 this whole thing pocketbook, they'd be affordability and the Trump 0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:32.920 factor as well are influencing races, not just on the 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.600 East Coast with Jersey and Virginia and New York City, 0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:38.600 but also places like Anderson Township where you saw two 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.640 Republican trustees replaced by two Democrats. They flipped that blue 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:45.000 and Forestal school Board as well. Not surprised by aftabs win, 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:48.520 I thought that, okay, I said, you know, Aftabs is 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:50.679 going to win this election. I'm pretty sure of it. 0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:52.120 But I thought that there would be a little bit 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:53.680 more upheaval on city Council. 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:58.600 And that just speaks to this power of the blue 0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:04.480 slate card. You know that it was actually very remarkable 0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:08.640 because I think even the biggest stems would have told you. 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.760 I think eight out of nine. Ryan James was always. 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:13.520 The question mark, as you know, someone who's not on 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:18.920 council and list heating rant a perfect race. But at 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:20.640 the end of the day, the numbers are what the 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:24.120 numbers are. There's nothing more that she could have done. 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:27.280 She raised a bowloado of money, she did a blitz 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.240 at the end, but the numbers are what the numbers are. 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:33.760 And the blue slate card that you see when you 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.480 go to a poll, if you're in the City of 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:41.200 Cincinnati or Hamilton County, it's undefeated now it you know. 0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:44.680 The biggest elections going forward in the city will be 0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:50.080 the primaries similar to Columbus Cleveland. And that's just how much, 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:54.640 in you know, fifteen years, it has changed from being 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.680 you had to be this moderate on either side to 0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:01.840 you know, win an election, to now where it's solid blue. 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.400 And I think you're gonna start seeing in the new 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:08.160 upcoming elections primaries start to get nasty because that's the 0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:09.360 real election, now. 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.719 Gotcha, gotcha your top vote getters. Michelle Iman Kearney was 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:16.640 number one, Scottie Johnson, Mika Owens is new, and I'll 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:20.440 be Jefferies Walsh, Kramer Ding Nolan and Ryan James and 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:23.800 just missing again. I just had her on the other day. 0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:27.400 I think she's wonderful. Liz Keating, who went totally in 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.640 on the crime thing, as well as Chris Smitheman, Keita Cole. 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:34.080 They all went crime, crime, crime, crime, and it didn't 0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:36.440 matter because Liz keith Anthy for the second election now 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:38.600 just narrowly missed that ninth seat. 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:44.680 Yeah, and to her and her team, they ran, you know, 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:46.880 it's easy to be a Monday morning quarterback, but they 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:49.880 ran as good as the race. I don't really know 0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:52.840 anything they could have done differently, but when a city 0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:56.600 votes seventy five to twenty five, you know, for the 0:14:56.640 --> 0:15:00.000 mayor or eighty twenty in this case, it's very hard 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:00.720 to overcome that. 0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:06.040 Yeah, yeah, I mean it's that simple, right, right, But 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:08.160 I think it's a promise there because Mika Owens came 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:12.000 as a charter right and she finished surprisingly third, beating 0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:14.520 out a lot of the incumbents there with the most 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:17.000 number of votes behind lemon Kearney and Johnson. 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:21.040 MICA's endorsed by the Hamilton County Democratic Democrats. 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:23.040 I'm sure, yeah, yeah, right, yeah, yeah, you're right. 0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:30.320 The charter Yeah, but you know, it's amazing and basically 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:34.840 ten years the charter rights went basically extinct, which they were, 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:38.160 you know, a large part of Cincinnati politics since the 0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:39.160 nineteen twenties. 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:44.880 But they just they just don't have the juice anymore. 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:46.520 Right, What do you attribute that? 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:49.240 Just the fact that we're it's a two party state 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:51.520 and that's all because I mean we had charter you know, 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:53.200 I've been here for twenty years and there are plenty 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:56.040 of charter rights that did wonderful and work and represented 0:15:56.120 --> 0:15:57.560 well and went why can't they get traction? 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:00.920 Uh? It's national. 0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:02.920 I mean, at the end of the day, politics now 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:08.080 has become so national. You know, it's a you're either 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:14.120 with us or against stuff, and people just now you 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:19.040 know the social media age that there's no wiggle room. 0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:17.680 No. 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.720 And secondly, the charter right, this is very wonky now 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:26.120 and I'm gonna apologize. It's actually a committee and not 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:29.160 a party with the state. So it also hurts some 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:32.720 of their resources. So it's not like the Green Party, 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:37.360 because you know, you have national stuff. They just lack 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:42.280 the resources. And frankly, when the earned media for either 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.560 the R or the D are trillions of dollars every year, 0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:47.720 there's nothing you can do. 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:52.760 He's Kevin Burton with Crosstown Consulting Other Kentucky. Congratulations on 0:16:52.800 --> 0:16:55.040 your slate of winners. Are you went six or six 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:56.800 in this? I know Kevin and I always love the 0:16:56.800 --> 0:17:00.320 insight and the polster and why we voted the way 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:02.880 we voted yesterday. Kevin, all the best, Thanks again, buddy, 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:05.040 do well, thanks for having me. All right, I got 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:07.680 to get a news update in I believe Frank Marzula 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:10.080 is standing by from WCPO nine. He's down to Louisville, 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:12.280 the very latest one that ups plane crash. We'll get 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:14.439 back to some of this election related stuff. Lots to 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:18.800 do on this Wednesday morning, Sloaney seven hundred w all right, 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:20.359 we'll get back some of the election stuff in just 0:17:20.359 --> 0:17:24.159 a minute. But as often as the case, you have 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:26.800 one big news day, it's just compounded by other big 0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:29.000 news story and a huge one right in our listening area. 0:17:29.000 --> 0:17:32.119 Here's what happened early evening last night. Of course, the 0:17:32.280 --> 0:17:38.120 ups plane crash at Louisville Airport at Muhammad Ali death toll. 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:41.200 There is climbing. We're up to nine overnight now, eleven 0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:44.120 people injured. Governor Basher said, sixteen people at this point 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:47.600 still unaccounted for, and by now we saw the devastation. 0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:52.560 Standing by out there is Frank Marzulo now with nine WCPO. 0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:56.080 I've known Frank. I think we came to Cincinnati years 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:58.679 and decades ago. Now it makes us old about the 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:01.960 same time. And Frank, uh so, glad you're back on 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:02.840 TV local here. 0:18:02.840 --> 0:18:06.040 Welcome. Oops. Hold on the second one.

Good to see you back on 0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:17.160 local television. 0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:20.159 My friend, Oh thank you. I was I was kissing 0:18:20.200 --> 0:18:22.119 lots of butts to try to get back on. 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.760 Appreciate he's in Cleveland, he's in date and he's doing it, 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:28.040 hitting the line. He's like Jay Lenno work in the 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:29.280 circuit back in the day, buddy. 0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:32.399 Yeah, no, no, it's good. It's it's good. It's going 0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:35.240 to be back and doing things. But I appreciate you know, 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:37.879 we'll talk the better terms next time. But yeah, I 0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:39.919 really sad story it is. 0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.400 I was watching last night and then Autrition rob Head 0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:44.959 Live Anchory their ranking live coverage out there, and when 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:46.720 they broke in, I'm like, okay, now what do we have. 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:49.399 It's Louisville. A plane crash. Okay, thinking like it's private. 0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:51.600 And it turns out and they show the aerial of 0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:54.800 this thing and it's a field of fireball uh. 0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:56.360 And not the good content. Absolutely horrific. 0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.960 So again, the latest numbers on this nine people are 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:03.080 are confirmed debt at this point. The Governor Andy Basheer 0:19:03.119 --> 0:19:06.359 said sixteen on accounted for eleven injured. Let's set this 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:08.560 up the scope of the fire because it's tough to 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:11.560 get a perspective unless you're down there, even with you know, 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:13.000 a helicopter view of this thing. 0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:16.320 How wide is that is that? The field of damage? 0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:21.600 Well, the search area here this morning and WCBO nine's 0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:23.960 are Sam Harris Simmon with he was there live last 0:19:24.040 --> 0:19:27.479 night when the fire really was still going strong. The 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.320 fire has been put out, slope has been put out. 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:32.560 There have been a few flare ups. I've noticed two 0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:35.120 of those this morning, but the search area has been 0:19:35.200 --> 0:19:38.600 one city block that they have been searching. And you 0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:43.120 mentioned the victims still missing. That detull at nine now 0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:47.160 at one point two with the here's thing, Scott, two 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:49.520 hundred and eighty thousand pounds of fuel was on this 0:19:49.680 --> 0:19:53.880 jet right. This is an MD eleven. It's the tried jet. 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.119 We've got the engines on, one on each wing and 0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:59.200 one on the on the tail. They don't serve passengers anymore, 0:19:59.200 --> 0:20:01.600 they're all cargo. Ups. Took control of this one in 0:20:01.640 --> 0:20:04.720 two thousand and six. It's thirty four years old. So 0:20:05.080 --> 0:20:07.680 this thing wholesome fuel right, two hundred and eighty thousand 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:09.240 pounds of fuel. It's going on an eight and a 0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:13.239 half hour flight to Honolulu. So it's fully loaded one 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:15.960 hundred and seventy five feet off the air when it crashes, 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:21.640 this into a petroleum recycling facility that's at the end 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:28.000 of the runway there at Muhammad Ali Luisa interat National Airport, 0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:32.480 So not only the fuel on board, but the petroleum facility. 0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:36.120 I know you've seen the video. It is just there 0:20:36.160 --> 0:20:39.240 was a video where you literally see the plane kind 0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:42.280 of kurktailing, you could see an engine on fire. And 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:44.480 I talked to our good friend, I know, he does 0:20:44.480 --> 0:20:47.480 a lot with you with Jay Ratliss, last night and 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:49.840 he was telling me that, you know, investigators, is a 0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:51.920 couple of things you'll look at here now. So you're 0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:55.480 going to look Number one, engine failure may not always 0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:57.920 be the go to even if it's on fire. There 0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:00.800 could have been debris on the runway that happened with 0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:04.560 the Concord Air crash back in two thousand and Since then, 0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:07.159 there's protocols now where you go up and down the 0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:08.800 runway a couple of times a day make sure there's 0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:11.880 not dead animals and whatnot. Couldn't this a cargo jet, 0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:15.439 so it could be cargo that maybe properly wasn't you know, 0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:18.800 tied down and you get your weights and balances off 0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:21.720 if something's moving, so a lot. Again, those are just 0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:25.040 all options that the NTSB is going to have on 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:28.119 the table here as those twenty eight investigators are arriving 0:21:28.119 --> 0:21:28.560 this morning. 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.159 Yeah, it probably starts not discounting all that stuff. I 0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:33.679 think Jay's right about that. Is the engine itself is 0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:36.080 the flame out, because you know, most people get never 0:21:36.119 --> 0:21:37.399 saw my guy, we're coming in for a landing. 0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:38.680 And that's the easy part. 0:21:38.880 --> 0:21:41.879 The most critical part of that is that sequence what 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:44.680 you talked about, from where you start up to beginning 0:21:44.680 --> 0:21:47.760 of the runway basically get up to speed to get 0:21:47.840 --> 0:21:49.800 up knots to create the lift to get that plane 0:21:49.800 --> 0:21:51.560 in the air. So if the engine goes out, if 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:56.359 you lose an engine that early, you know it's it's 0:21:56.440 --> 0:21:59.560 not always catastrophic, But boy, you really can't control that. 0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:02.080 You got all that weight and inertia going forward and 0:22:02.480 --> 0:22:04.760 it flamed out at the exact wrong time. Now, could 0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:07.000 it bend something in the hold that shifted, That's entirely 0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:11.280 possible causing a problem. But I'm sure though, And it 0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:12.840 looked to me like it looked like part of a 0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:15.600 cowling maybe along the runway from some of the areals 0:22:15.640 --> 0:22:17.840 I saw, which should indicate that. But the fact of 0:22:17.840 --> 0:22:21.520 the matter is putting a petroleum refining facility near where 0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:23.480 the end of that runway is. Was it at the 0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:25.800 end of the runway or did it get some lift 0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:27.000 and go off to it one time. 0:22:27.359 --> 0:22:30.119 I mean, it's not like it's not you know, runways 0:22:30.119 --> 0:22:32.959 over petroleum facilities there, but it's close enough that there 0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:34.520 was only one hundred and twenty five feet off the 0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:36.679 air when it crashed into this, and you bring up 0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:39.720 good points there. By the time you realize you have 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:43.000 an issue, okay, you're past the point of no return, 0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:44.800 so you either run off the runway or you try 0:22:44.800 --> 0:22:47.360 to take off right that the issue is. And that's 0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:49.640 why I take off. Failures like this are so critical. 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:53.160 You don't have altitude to troubleshoot this thing right your 0:22:53.280 --> 0:22:56.440 mid air engine blows Okay, you've got two others you're 0:22:56.440 --> 0:22:59.159 flying along. You can at least troubleshoot it. Clear some 0:22:59.320 --> 0:23:01.560 airspace for me, let me figure out what's going on. 0:23:01.880 --> 0:23:05.199 You're lifting off, it goes off, you pretty much have 0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:05.720 no chance. 0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:08.200 Yeah, yeah, And it harkens back to Miracle on the 0:23:08.280 --> 0:23:11.200 Hudson with Sullenberger right, and he had enough lift created 0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:12.800 he was off the ground enough when that bird strike 0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.080 cap and that other engine is able to propel him. 0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:18.280 That this happened earlier than that, I believe, and I 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.120 know I'm not through the aviation expert. Probably a lot 0:23:21.160 --> 0:23:23.480 heavier cargo and so more inertia. It's going to take 0:23:23.480 --> 0:23:25.359 more energy to get the plane in the air because 0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:28.639 it's a cargo plane. But bigger engines, bigger and NTSB's 0:23:28.680 --> 0:23:30.879 on scene. They'll figure this thing out eventually at some 0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:33.879 point here. But right now you worry about what I 0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:36.800 heard from Governor Basher was sixteen people still missing? Is 0:23:36.840 --> 0:23:38.200 that numbers still accurate at this point? 0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:41.480 That's that's the number I have. Yep, sixteen still missing. 0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:46.359 It was seven overnight dead, when up to nine here 0:23:46.680 --> 0:23:49.720 this afternoon. I'm sure we'll get more updates. The airport 0:23:50.040 --> 0:23:53.720 is open, they've opened one runway because it was shut 0:23:53.760 --> 0:23:56.119 down for a good portion of the overnight period. And 0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:59.359 you had a five mile radius for shelter in place. 0:23:59.680 --> 0:24:01.720 I've seen and I haven't been able to confirm this, 0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:05.400 but I have seen on you know, multiple legit news 0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:09.720 articles and sites, you know, debris miles away because you 0:24:09.760 --> 0:24:12.800 have all it's all packaging, right, and you have so 0:24:12.880 --> 0:24:14.439 you have things that are light. I mean, you have 0:24:14.440 --> 0:24:16.760 an explosion like that, you have you know, letters and 0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:19.920 packages and things that will just you know, get caught 0:24:19.960 --> 0:24:22.040 up in the updrafts and whatnot in the atmosphere and 0:24:22.080 --> 0:24:25.600 be carried away. So yeah, it's you never want to 0:24:25.680 --> 0:24:27.560 you never want to see anything like that. This is 0:24:27.600 --> 0:24:30.320 only the third, you say, only you know it's awful 0:24:30.359 --> 0:24:33.760 no matter what. But the third accident in UPS airline 0:24:33.840 --> 0:24:36.040 history since nineteen eighty eight. You had won in twenty 0:24:36.080 --> 0:24:38.800 ten in Dubai and closer to home twenty thirteen, you 0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:42.080 may recall there was an UPS flight and an A 0:24:42.320 --> 0:24:46.400 three hundred that took off and was on its way 0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:49.200 to Birmingham and right before it landed in Birmingham it crashed. 0:24:49.200 --> 0:24:50.800 And that took off from Louisville as well. That was 0:24:50.800 --> 0:24:53.399 back in twenty thirteen, and in both those instances the 0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:56.600 crew was killed. There was three on the flight here, pilot, 0:24:56.600 --> 0:24:59.760 copilot and either a relief pilot or you know, an engineer. 0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:01.800 You know, I can't, you can't, but I don't think 0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:03.919 that's Louisville it's our backyard. It's you know, it's in 0:25:03.920 --> 0:25:06.920 our listening area here and you're being here a Frank. Yeah. 0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:09.120 At the same time, you go, well, what about CVG, 0:25:09.320 --> 0:25:11.240 because we have a cargo hub there certainly as big 0:25:11.280 --> 0:25:13.560 as Louisville, as the Global Comino, I mean. 0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.960 With Amazon at DHL, Yeah, yeah. 0:25:15.960 --> 0:25:18.199 And I know down in there where you are, Louisville, 0:25:18.200 --> 0:25:21.919 Frank Brzullo, that is also the UPS Global Flight Training 0:25:21.920 --> 0:25:25.760 facility right there too. But this was an actual cargo flight. 0:25:25.800 --> 0:25:26.760 This wasn't a training flight. 0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:29.679 This was on a training flight. Yeah. They had their 0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:33.720 real port there and they so they have planes, you know, 0:25:33.840 --> 0:25:36.200 planes that they own and planes that they charter, right 0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:40.040 and upwards of two thousand flights a day go out 0:25:40.040 --> 0:25:41.879 of Louisville, and a lot of those are on the 0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:43.800 on the overnight hours. I mean you can and you 0:25:43.800 --> 0:25:46.720 see that at CBG too, you know. Yeah, get back 0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:49.199 up at two am now, rewarded driver into work and 0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:51.960 you can see the lights lining up as the planes 0:25:51.960 --> 0:25:54.679 are coming in, whether it's DHL or Amazon or whatnot. 0:25:54.720 --> 0:25:57.040 So a lot of that's overnight. But this was just 0:25:57.080 --> 0:25:59.520 as the day was getting as the evening was getting started, 0:25:59.520 --> 0:26:02.679 a little left five thirty and it's so close. I 0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:05.560 mean you have all the windows on the on the 0:26:05.760 --> 0:26:08.040 departure gates and so you know you're getting on a 0:26:08.520 --> 0:26:11.520 United American Delta flight and you see that, like hold 0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:12.040 on a second. 0:26:12.160 --> 0:26:12.920 Yeah, yeah, I. 0:26:12.800 --> 0:26:14.480 Mean there's been flights I've had that we've had to 0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:17.000 divert to Louisville because you know, something's going on CBG. 0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:21.399 So it's very nice. It's convenient. In fact, I was 0:26:21.640 --> 0:26:23.320 last week. I came back from New York and all 0:26:23.359 --> 0:26:25.600 the flights and the CBG were canceled weather and stuff. 0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:27.720 So I ended up taking a flight to Louisville and 0:26:27.880 --> 0:26:30.440 just you know, drove the quick ninety minutes back up north. 0:26:30.640 --> 0:26:30.959 That's it. 0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:32.760 That's right. Pretty it's actually pretty convenient. 0:26:32.840 --> 0:26:35.760 I like Louisville lot. It's what what is the situation 0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:37.119 now there? So people are hearing this, like I got 0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:37.800 to drive south? 0:26:37.880 --> 0:26:38.080 Is it? 0:26:38.160 --> 0:26:39.600 Is it causing problems on the highways? 0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:39.760 You know? 0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:40.800 Or you're not keeping an eye on that? 0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:45.040 Oh no, that's all good, okay, every everything down there. Yeah, 0:26:45.320 --> 0:26:48.360 when it comes to like infrastructure stuff, now everything's focusing 0:26:48.480 --> 0:26:51.199 on the actual site itself. Now, if you're in a 0:26:51.240 --> 0:26:54.000 business or whatnot within that vicinity there's you know things. 0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:56.240 But if you you know, are on the interstates and whatnot, 0:26:56.640 --> 0:26:58.359 you were fine. We got right into the airport. It 0:26:58.440 --> 0:26:59.560 was no no problem at all. 0:26:59.800 --> 0:27:00.359 Cha all right. 0:27:00.400 --> 0:27:04.840 Well, the search continues for the missing sixteen and NTSB's 0:27:04.840 --> 0:27:06.600 on the scene, investigators, they're somewhere. 0:27:06.359 --> 0:27:09.120 Else right like. And the governor even said this too 0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:11.440 when tornadoes have hit and whatnot. You know, he goes, 0:27:11.440 --> 0:27:14.800 here's what we're looking for. We're missing. But he said thankfully, 0:27:14.880 --> 0:27:16.159 you know, when he said, you know, we have one 0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:18.919 hundred missing, maybe twenty out of the hunting. You know, 0:27:19.040 --> 0:27:21.840 so you guess all that. You know, folks are asleeping, 0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:23.200 they don't have the news on the on on what's 0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:24.280 going on, and you guess hoping. 0:27:24.400 --> 0:27:24.560 You know. 0:27:24.800 --> 0:27:27.879 Well, I think also too when this happened, and I 0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:30.360 think it was the affiliate in Louisville that had reported 0:27:30.359 --> 0:27:32.919 the roads that were most affected by this, and I 0:27:32.960 --> 0:27:35.040 pulled my Google arth out doing a little research, and 0:27:35.080 --> 0:27:37.600 it said, oh my god, that is very very close 0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:41.200 to it. There's a Ford assembly plant that is right there. 0:27:41.359 --> 0:27:43.800 How close was this to the Ford Assembly Plant? 0:27:45.320 --> 0:27:47.040 I can't I can't tell you I know it's there. 0:27:47.160 --> 0:27:49.199 I mean I will see the Louisville Airport. I mean 0:27:49.240 --> 0:27:52.639 there's an amusement park. There's a lot going called Kentucky 0:27:52.720 --> 0:27:55.600 Kingdom or whatever. Yeah, you can see that. Right when 0:27:55.600 --> 0:27:56.960 the sun came up, I'm like, oh, look there's a 0:27:56.960 --> 0:27:57.440 Ferris room. 0:27:57.760 --> 0:27:58.760 It was right there. 0:27:58.840 --> 0:28:01.119 Yeah, we're there for a couple surburbon and beyond at 0:28:01.119 --> 0:28:03.440 the expo grounds right there's fits A. It's a great 0:28:03.440 --> 0:28:06.000 facility to watch concertce live. But there's a lot of 0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:08.159 It's not just an airport like CVG. Okay, there's some 0:28:08.200 --> 0:28:10.320 buildings and stuff around there. That's a whole big it's 0:28:10.320 --> 0:28:12.639 almost like a city itself around the airport. And I 0:28:12.680 --> 0:28:14.600 saw that they FOURD assembly plant. I'm like praying to 0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:16.280 God that oh my god, if that plane hit that 0:28:16.320 --> 0:28:19.200 assembly plant with you know, a full shift there, can 0:28:19.200 --> 0:28:19.959 you imagine? 0:28:20.119 --> 0:28:21.080 Can you imagine? 0:28:21.320 --> 0:28:23.320 I'm a good point because people always go, you know that, 0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:25.639 we always get not made fun of it. They go, 0:28:25.680 --> 0:28:27.320 what did you fly to Cincinnati? But are you flying 0:28:27.359 --> 0:28:29.439 to Kentucky. Well, they build it out there because there 0:28:29.440 --> 0:28:33.080 was land where you can you know, where you're not 0:28:33.080 --> 0:28:34.840 putting a lot at risk or having a lot of 0:28:34.880 --> 0:28:37.679 developments going up now right around the airport. I mean, 0:28:37.680 --> 0:28:39.480 I love if you are flowing into San Diego, that 0:28:39.560 --> 0:28:42.200 thing is that's what I go downtown. That would be 0:28:42.240 --> 0:28:45.560 like a runway on Fountain Square. Yeah, I mean so yeah, 0:28:45.600 --> 0:28:49.640 crazy crazy. There's a risk with these city metropo hality airports. 0:28:49.680 --> 0:28:50.200 Yeah, no question. 0:28:50.200 --> 0:28:50.480 All right. 0:28:50.480 --> 0:28:52.760 Frank Marzoula from WCPO nine to SeeMe in the mornings, 0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:54.520 and I thank you for checking in, brother, Glad you're 0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:56.760 back on your feet and kicking. 0:28:56.800 --> 0:29:01.280 But thanks again. Man. We're trying, okay, all the best. 0:29:01.320 --> 0:29:03.840 Back at it. Horrible tragedy down level. Will keep an 0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:04.320 eye on that one. 0:29:04.360 --> 0:29:06.680 Scott's loan on seven hundred w OLDWT coming up at 0:29:06.680 --> 0:29:10.400 ten oh six CPS. Back to the other major news 0:29:10.400 --> 0:29:13.120 story today, of course, that would be the election yesterday 0:29:13.640 --> 0:29:16.120 and what's happening behind the scenes. We've got Sean Murphy, 0:29:16.200 --> 0:29:18.560 Superintendent of CPS. They had a big levy in it 0:29:18.680 --> 0:29:22.360 passed by wide margin yesterday forty eight million dollars ten 0:29:22.440 --> 0:29:25.280 year renewal. And it's a renewal, so it's no property 0:29:25.320 --> 0:29:29.840 tax increases for taxpayers. But we'll get to hear about 0:29:29.840 --> 0:29:31.680 the big picture in just a few minutes coming up 0:29:31.720 --> 0:29:34.200 on the Scott Sloan Show on seven hundred w OLDW. 0:29:34.320 --> 0:29:36.920 But a relative to the election yesterday, I know that 0:29:37.000 --> 0:29:40.760 my Republican colleagues, especially though are more maga than not, 0:29:40.800 --> 0:29:43.240 are a little nervous today about the dem sweeping from 0:29:43.280 --> 0:29:46.440 Jersey to the city, to Virginia to Anderson Township. I 0:29:46.480 --> 0:29:50.520 think it's an interesting, interesting fallout here and that you know, 0:29:50.560 --> 0:29:53.600 looking at what Ma'm donnie to me, it strikes me 0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:57.440 watching him going and rising so quickly meteorically as a 0:29:57.440 --> 0:29:59.560 couple of things going on, and how does that impact 0:29:59.600 --> 0:30:01.520 what would do here in Cincinnati. I think it does 0:30:02.720 --> 0:30:05.080 is that we have a much much lower tolerance now 0:30:05.200 --> 0:30:12.120 than before for politicians getting elected mandates or otherwise, but 0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:14.440 putting their plans in place, and if it doesn't come 0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:17.760 to fruition, that's it. Biggest issue are two things. One 0:30:17.880 --> 0:30:22.200 is the referendumount affordability, because that's what got Mamdanie elected 0:30:22.240 --> 0:30:24.840 in New York City. It was I want to say, 0:30:25.240 --> 0:30:27.680 not long ago, maybe a year ago, if that there 0:30:27.720 --> 0:30:29.600 was a meme going on mighty saw that the sandwich 0:30:29.640 --> 0:30:31.400 in New York stity just a regular not like a 0:30:31.480 --> 0:30:33.680 high end boogie sandwich or your sandwich in near thirty 0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:37.240 dollars or a sandwich. Now, what's driving that? Of course 0:30:38.360 --> 0:30:41.040 the government policies and everything, and the fact it is 0:30:41.080 --> 0:30:44.640 the most populous city in the United States and everything 0:30:44.680 --> 0:30:47.040 costs much much more in New York City because so 0:30:47.040 --> 0:30:48.880 many more people are there. It just drives a cost 0:30:48.920 --> 0:30:51.960 everything up. That's not a lot that. I don't know people 0:30:52.000 --> 0:30:54.760 caught that or not, but Ma'm daddy. Toy strikes me 0:30:54.800 --> 0:30:56.840 as the anti Trump because he came on the scene 0:30:56.920 --> 0:31:01.480 rather quickly, just simply out of nowhere, and his campaign 0:31:01.520 --> 0:31:03.800 was run completely in social media and a digital campaign. 0:31:03.800 --> 0:31:05.080 There was no TV, no legacy. 0:31:05.440 --> 0:31:08.120 He's not sitting down and talking to CNN and MSNBC 0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:10.720 and you know all the things typically politicians do. 0:31:11.120 --> 0:31:12.400 It was completely organic. 0:31:12.960 --> 0:31:16.520 And the other big factor here is he did really, 0:31:16.600 --> 0:31:20.480 really well turning out young people gen zers and millennials 0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:23.120 because quite honestly, at that age, you know, you're looking 0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:25.560 at this going, Okay, I did what I'm supposed to do. 0:31:25.560 --> 0:31:29.360 I'm working, I maybe got a college degree. Professionals for example, 0:31:30.320 --> 0:31:32.520 normally you look at them as being more rightly and going, 0:31:32.520 --> 0:31:36.080 you know what, I'm tired of having to have roommates 0:31:36.200 --> 0:31:38.520 at the age of thirty and not being able to 0:31:38.560 --> 0:31:41.080 save for a house or a car and all these things. 0:31:41.080 --> 0:31:43.760 In retirement, it feels so out of touch. Healthcare is 0:31:43.800 --> 0:31:46.760 another thing, and affordability, affordability and more affordability is what 0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:47.440 it gets down to. 0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:48.160 And for gen Z. 0:31:50.720 --> 0:31:52.640 And this a whole generation too, by the way, that 0:31:52.760 --> 0:31:56.400 gets all their information from social media, and so the 0:31:56.440 --> 0:31:58.440 algorithms are set there that if you want to be 0:31:58.480 --> 0:32:01.360 depressed and you want to be sad, just continue to 0:32:01.400 --> 0:32:03.240 get a feed of social media and not get a 0:32:03.240 --> 0:32:06.360 perspective on things. And so that played into Bondami, and 0:32:06.400 --> 0:32:07.680 that's why he said, Hey, look, you know what, I'm 0:32:07.720 --> 0:32:10.120 gonna give a free bussing. I'm gonna give you a 0:32:10.480 --> 0:32:13.280 government run grocery stores, and your rent is gonna go up. 0:32:13.320 --> 0:32:15.040 I mean that all sounds good, but the reil of 0:32:15.080 --> 0:32:17.880 that is having seen it, especially from the rent element, 0:32:19.000 --> 0:32:23.120 to me, we'll see what happens. It's almost Trump in 0:32:23.160 --> 0:32:25.440 a sense that he's going to promise, over promise and 0:32:25.560 --> 0:32:29.040 under deliver because Trump was, Hey, we're gonna have tariffs, 0:32:29.200 --> 0:32:31.440 the economy's gonna have good everything's gonna be making money. 0:32:31.680 --> 0:32:33.520 You know, your foreign ca is doing pretty well, but 0:32:33.600 --> 0:32:36.080 it's not like the inflation, the cost everything went down 0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:39.960 and we're getting all these jobs back and people are winning. 0:32:40.000 --> 0:32:42.480 And I think the average person doesn't feel like they're winning. 0:32:42.720 --> 0:32:45.840 You may think you are because again, maybe you're on social, 0:32:45.880 --> 0:32:47.640 maybe you're on true social, maybe you're gonna fed the 0:32:47.640 --> 0:32:50.720 algorithms how great everything is. Because Donald Trump says that's 0:32:50.720 --> 0:32:52.840 the case. But from many Americans that we know, that's 0:32:52.840 --> 0:32:56.320 simply not true. But in enough Americans to make a difference, 0:32:56.360 --> 0:32:57.800 I think it's the per se of the reality over 0:32:57.800 --> 0:33:02.080 the perception. But looking in what I see at this 0:33:02.120 --> 0:33:04.320 whole thing is, yeah, it's just backlash to that. And 0:33:04.360 --> 0:33:06.920 then relative to Cincinnati with af Ted pure Vols, I've 0:33:06.920 --> 0:33:10.280 been saying, I don't see how I don't see how 0:33:10.320 --> 0:33:12.200 Corey Bowman wins. I mean, seems like a nice guy 0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:14.840 had him in the show before. But the fact of 0:33:14.840 --> 0:33:18.040 the matter is, you know your jd Vance's brother, and 0:33:19.040 --> 0:33:22.120 I think people hear that in deep deep blue Cincinnati 0:33:22.200 --> 0:33:22.960 and go hell no. 0:33:24.520 --> 0:33:24.800 That. 0:33:25.040 --> 0:33:26.160 I don't think that helped him. 0:33:26.400 --> 0:33:28.560 And I think you know, he madd a great message 0:33:28.600 --> 0:33:31.440 in Step, but the baggage around that and what he 0:33:31.480 --> 0:33:33.880 had to carry to win the vote in Cincinnati is 0:33:33.880 --> 0:33:37.160 never going to work out. I am surprised that AFTAB 0:33:37.200 --> 0:33:39.840 got eight out of ten votes. That that surprises me. 0:33:40.080 --> 0:33:42.280 It may not af taed pureval, but that was I 0:33:42.280 --> 0:33:44.400 guess if you're on team AFTAB, that's a pleasant surprise. 0:33:45.200 --> 0:33:47.479 But I don't know it was that voters thought that, 0:33:47.640 --> 0:33:49.400 And you know, eight out of ten votes is a mandate. 0:33:49.440 --> 0:33:51.600 Let's call what it is. But I think that's the 0:33:51.640 --> 0:33:53.480 thing with Corey Bowman, like he had a good message, 0:33:53.520 --> 0:33:55.720 just I wonder if he could get past all that baggage, 0:33:56.040 --> 0:33:58.400 and clearly he couldn't in that case. So we'll see 0:33:58.400 --> 0:34:00.920 what happens with crime downtown. I'm curious to see if 0:34:00.920 --> 0:34:04.600 it's a lesson learned with this Thigg nonsense and the riot, 0:34:04.720 --> 0:34:06.440 or just does empower you to dig your heels and 0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:09.600 go hey, listen, voters didn't care. Therefore I can get 0:34:09.640 --> 0:34:13.319 away with more. And we're back to the central theme 0:34:13.360 --> 0:34:15.920 of the show, and that is I love a divided government. 0:34:15.960 --> 0:34:19.319 I love it when two sides have to compromise and 0:34:19.320 --> 0:34:21.080 to get order to get stuff done, whether that is 0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:25.240 in Cincinnati or whether that's in Columbus, or in Washington 0:34:25.280 --> 0:34:28.359 for that matter, we do better when they're divided. When 0:34:28.400 --> 0:34:31.000 one side controls everything, it's not good. And you're seeing 0:34:31.000 --> 0:34:32.640 that come true and may see that come true in 0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:35.040 downtown Cincinnati. We'll get a time out in and more 0:34:35.080 --> 0:34:37.000 to follow Scott's Sloane Show on the home of the 0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:39.080 best Bengals coverage with the bye week here, see if 0:34:39.120 --> 0:34:40.200 they can't lose the bye week. 0:34:40.239 --> 0:34:43.560 They're trying. They're trying. Seven hundred WW Cincinnati, Do. 0:34:43.520 --> 0:34:45.080 You want to be an American? 0:34:45.719 --> 0:34:47.640 All right, let's go on this Wednesday morning, Sloani here, 0:34:47.640 --> 0:34:52.680 seven hundred WLW. Election followup continues and overall, generally a 0:34:52.680 --> 0:34:55.120 good night for leve save maybe a few Lakota comes 0:34:55.160 --> 0:34:57.600 to mind, but a lot of school levees are up 0:34:57.600 --> 0:34:59.840 and passed, and one of those would be CPS A 0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:02.320 forty eight million dollars, ten year renewal in the city 0:35:02.800 --> 0:35:05.520 that has no property tax increase for the emergency levee. 0:35:05.560 --> 0:35:09.080 And I think it's interesting based on the dynamics of 0:35:09.120 --> 0:35:11.319 the economy, because this whole thing was a referendu amount. 0:35:11.320 --> 0:35:15.160 Affordability for things and housing affordability is the top of 0:35:15.160 --> 0:35:17.680 people's minds. Here in the Tri state area for sure. 0:35:17.760 --> 0:35:21.200 On that is the superintendent of Cincinnati Public Schools and 0:35:21.200 --> 0:35:22.960 Studio this morning, Miss Shanna Murphy. 0:35:23.000 --> 0:35:24.400 Welcome, Harrio. Congratulations. 0:35:24.440 --> 0:35:26.840 I'm wonderful, thank you, Thank you so much for having me, 0:35:26.920 --> 0:35:28.280 and thanks for the congratulations. 0:35:28.320 --> 0:35:29.600 How nervous were you last Oh? 0:35:29.640 --> 0:35:30.560 Extremely nervous. 0:35:30.840 --> 0:35:33.520 I don't take any of this for granted, you know, 0:35:33.600 --> 0:35:35.680 And as you just said, there is a lot going 0:35:35.680 --> 0:35:39.160 on with our economy. There's a lot going on with housing. 0:35:39.680 --> 0:35:42.560 And I am just deeply appreciative of the people of Cincinnati. 0:35:42.680 --> 0:35:44.200 They have spoken. Thank you. 0:35:44.200 --> 0:35:46.800 You had nearly seven to ten voters, like like, almost 0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:50.120 seventy percent support on this thing. And that's striking considering 0:35:50.160 --> 0:35:52.200 what we've talked about. I've talked about this commissioner release, 0:35:52.239 --> 0:35:55.840 a Reese and the Denise Treehouse, about property tax rollbacks 0:35:55.840 --> 0:35:57.920 and the property tax and you know, values are going 0:35:58.040 --> 0:36:00.480 up ten to fifteen, twenty percent or whatever, and people 0:36:00.560 --> 0:36:02.560 see them go listen, I only have so much money here. 0:36:02.560 --> 0:36:03.600 I can't continue to give. 0:36:03.640 --> 0:36:06.759 And yet you know, two thirds of voters more two 0:36:06.800 --> 0:36:08.880 thirds came out and said, yeah, I want to pass 0:36:08.880 --> 0:36:09.239 this levee. 0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:09.839 What does that say? 0:36:09.920 --> 0:36:11.200 Yeah, that's right. That's huge. 0:36:11.320 --> 0:36:13.520 Right, So my team tells me that that may have 0:36:13.600 --> 0:36:16.240 been a record for us. We'll double check the final 0:36:16.360 --> 0:36:20.160 numbers there. But yeah, with all the rollback information going on, 0:36:20.200 --> 0:36:23.760 because hey, I am a lifelong Cincinnatian and I also 0:36:23.880 --> 0:36:27.680 understand and experience and have felt my property taxes. But 0:36:27.800 --> 0:36:30.960 you know, I think people are valuing pre K to 0:36:31.000 --> 0:36:34.480 twelve education. I think the fact that this is a 0:36:34.560 --> 0:36:38.960 renewal was on our side. And don't take for granted 0:36:39.120 --> 0:36:41.720 all of the decisions people have to make in terms 0:36:41.719 --> 0:36:45.080 of anything from feeding their families and making sure they 0:36:45.080 --> 0:36:46.520 can pay their property taxes. 0:36:46.560 --> 0:36:48.000 Well, let's talk about that forty eight mil. 0:36:48.239 --> 0:36:51.640 Fifteen is for preschool and the rest the other thirty 0:36:51.640 --> 0:36:54.840 three millions like college reading, this career readiness programs, things 0:36:54.880 --> 0:36:56.399 like that. Technology. 0:36:56.560 --> 0:36:57.600 Thanks, right, that's right. 0:36:57.880 --> 0:37:01.319 So this levy, this renew duel levy is done in 0:37:01.360 --> 0:37:05.759 partnership with Cincinnati Preschool Promise. Cincinnati Preschool Promise is a 0:37:05.800 --> 0:37:09.360 great partner, and they do get fifteen million of what 0:37:09.520 --> 0:37:12.439 was decided out of the forty eight million last night. 0:37:13.520 --> 0:37:16.680 Those go to private providers that we partner with and 0:37:16.719 --> 0:37:20.160 we work with. The remaining dollars do go to Cincinnati 0:37:20.160 --> 0:37:24.040 Public School preschoolers. It is a growing population in our 0:37:24.080 --> 0:37:27.480 school district, and we're really grateful and we believe that 0:37:27.600 --> 0:37:30.400 the work that we've done over the last several years. 0:37:30.600 --> 0:37:33.520 I believe this start in twenty sixteen lends itself to 0:37:33.600 --> 0:37:37.080 why voters are supportive of those younger learners. It also 0:37:37.200 --> 0:37:40.440 goes to making sure that we have the best technology 0:37:40.480 --> 0:37:44.640 in our classrooms, that we have high quality instructional materials 0:37:44.680 --> 0:37:48.360 for our young people. It goes towards workforce development and 0:37:48.480 --> 0:37:49.920 career and technical education. 0:37:50.360 --> 0:37:52.560 Does some of this money will that be able to 0:37:52.600 --> 0:37:54.160 offset some of the federal cuts we've seen? 0:37:54.840 --> 0:37:57.799 So, because this is a renewal, right, and we've had 0:37:57.840 --> 0:38:02.200 this money since twenty sixteen, So this has nothing to 0:38:02.280 --> 0:38:05.520 do with any possible cuts that could come from the 0:38:05.520 --> 0:38:06.280 federal government. 0:38:06.320 --> 0:38:07.680 Those are our title dollars. 0:38:08.080 --> 0:38:12.520 While we do use those for programming as well, reading programs, 0:38:12.640 --> 0:38:16.040 math programs, this is a total separate budget. We want 0:38:16.040 --> 0:38:18.960 to ride this high from the people of Cincinnati right 0:38:19.000 --> 0:38:23.000 now and understand that come this spring, we probably will 0:38:23.040 --> 0:38:24.920 have to deal with some adjustments from the feds. 0:38:24.960 --> 0:38:27.040 Does it show you, too, Seana Murphy that the voters 0:38:27.200 --> 0:38:30.240 were pretty up on how CPS is running the show 0:38:30.600 --> 0:38:33.440 in that graduation rates are up college and career and 0:38:33.520 --> 0:38:35.799 it's jumped as well, and this is like, Okay, they're 0:38:35.800 --> 0:38:37.239 doing good work. We're going to reward them. Do you 0:38:37.280 --> 0:38:37.799 see it that way? 0:38:37.960 --> 0:38:38.520 No question. 0:38:38.719 --> 0:38:41.360 And I have been a twenty seven year employee of 0:38:41.360 --> 0:38:44.719 Cincinnati Public Schools and so very proud of the work 0:38:44.760 --> 0:38:48.880 that's been done over the years. But especially in this season, 0:38:48.960 --> 0:38:52.600 where there are difficulties and there are choices that families 0:38:52.640 --> 0:38:55.680 have and they can make, they continue to choose Cincinnati 0:38:55.719 --> 0:38:58.200 Public Schools. And I think that's because of the high 0:38:58.280 --> 0:39:01.719 quality teachers that we have have in our classrooms, the 0:39:01.760 --> 0:39:05.040 building leadership that we have amongst our principles and assistant 0:39:05.080 --> 0:39:09.360 principles central office employees, And in spite of having to 0:39:09.480 --> 0:39:11.880 make in the past year and a half or so 0:39:12.080 --> 0:39:15.800 eighty million dollars in cuts, we continue to do more 0:39:16.000 --> 0:39:18.799 and more with less because it is about the kids 0:39:18.840 --> 0:39:19.600 at the end of the day. 0:39:20.360 --> 0:39:20.600 Yeah. 0:39:20.600 --> 0:39:23.080 And in addition that, I remember I had Ebolt done 0:39:23.080 --> 0:39:26.439 many times on the show Sean Murphy and talked about 0:39:26.440 --> 0:39:28.640 that whole restructuring process, and that was pretty ugly. We're 0:39:28.680 --> 0:39:32.719 closing schools, were condensing and now that that has come 0:39:32.760 --> 0:39:35.640 to fruition, you've closed what there's five new middle schools 0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:39.200 and junior highs. Substantial change. Yeah, and did voters finally 0:39:39.239 --> 0:39:40.520 see the plan on it, because there are a lot 0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:43.520 of people are angry about that, as you know, prior 0:39:43.520 --> 0:39:44.080 to this happening. 0:39:44.200 --> 0:39:45.960 Yes, So let me tell you, in my first year, 0:39:46.000 --> 0:39:49.279 we opened our first junior high and that idea came 0:39:49.360 --> 0:39:53.080 out of the district's ad hoc committee. They did that 0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:56.040 work for over an eighteen month period of time. The 0:39:56.160 --> 0:39:59.200 people said that they wanted to see junior highs and 0:39:59.280 --> 0:40:02.360 middle schools, and so we had an opportunity my first 0:40:02.400 --> 0:40:05.960 year as superintendent to open Schroder Middle School and that's 0:40:05.960 --> 0:40:08.800 what we did. What we saw with Schroeder Middle School 0:40:08.880 --> 0:40:13.279 is improved attendance, we saw improved behaviors, and we saw 0:40:13.840 --> 0:40:18.160 improved academic achievement through the state test. And so this 0:40:18.280 --> 0:40:22.080 year we opened five additional middle schools and junior highs 0:40:22.320 --> 0:40:24.880 and working really hard to see the same, if not 0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:25.959 better results there. 0:40:26.280 --> 0:40:28.439 I know that there are number of schools. Walding Hill's 0:40:28.440 --> 0:40:30.120 got a five stars from three and a half stars. 0:40:30.120 --> 0:40:32.040 But you know, the tough question for you is just 0:40:32.040 --> 0:40:35.400 still fifty two percent of schools are below the state standard. Yes, 0:40:35.520 --> 0:40:36.759 how do you make how do you make that? Is 0:40:36.800 --> 0:40:39.080 it possible to move that needle? And I get why. 0:40:39.200 --> 0:40:42.480 We'll get into the reasons why that is. But is 0:40:42.480 --> 0:40:43.520 that fixable with money? 0:40:43.880 --> 0:40:46.600 So it's we're not where we want to be and 0:40:46.640 --> 0:40:48.360 where we need to be, but we're headed in the 0:40:48.440 --> 0:40:52.520 right direction. We are getting positive feedback. For example, you 0:40:52.560 --> 0:40:54.600 just asked me about the middle schools and junior highs. 0:40:54.719 --> 0:40:57.360 We're getting positive feedback from our students, from our staff, 0:40:57.400 --> 0:41:00.920 and from our families who are actually involved in those schools. 0:41:01.280 --> 0:41:05.600 And so we look forward to seeing great improvement, marked 0:41:05.600 --> 0:41:08.919 improvement with our state test scores. So having that two 0:41:08.920 --> 0:41:12.520 point five stars is an interesting story. There is a 0:41:12.760 --> 0:41:17.479 range of scores that fall within that two point five mark. 0:41:17.760 --> 0:41:20.640 We're headed in the right direction in terms of showing 0:41:20.680 --> 0:41:23.200 improvement there. We'll keep doing that and we will get 0:41:23.239 --> 0:41:27.040 to that three stars and above where we are self 0:41:27.120 --> 0:41:31.480 sufficient and looking forward to getting there with the entire staff. 0:41:31.960 --> 0:41:34.560 I think, and I said, there's underlying things we don't 0:41:34.560 --> 0:41:36.279 see maybe in other areas, in other districts, and that's 0:41:36.280 --> 0:41:39.080 the absentee problem, chronic absenteism as you know, as rough whit, 0:41:39.080 --> 0:41:40.839 it's like forty five. 0:41:41.280 --> 0:41:42.400 Yeah, it's almost half. 0:41:42.280 --> 0:41:45.439 Of the missing ten days or more. And there's many 0:41:45.480 --> 0:41:49.360 reasons behind that. But you can't control that as an educator. 0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:51.680 You can't go and take kids at gunpoint and bring 0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:53.439 them to school and force them. And that you can't 0:41:53.480 --> 0:41:54.520 do that, how do you battle that? 0:41:54.560 --> 0:41:55.760 We continue to educate. 0:41:55.880 --> 0:41:59.239 So chronic absenteeism is ten percent of the school year, 0:41:59.280 --> 0:42:02.600 and it is regardless of if there's an absence that 0:42:02.680 --> 0:42:05.319 we excuse or not. So for example, I know young 0:42:05.320 --> 0:42:08.200 people who have sickle cell anemia. Guess what on occasion 0:42:08.239 --> 0:42:10.920 they may miss a period of time. There are times 0:42:11.000 --> 0:42:13.680 during inclement weather days where we may say we're going 0:42:13.719 --> 0:42:16.239 to have school. Well, depending on where you live, because 0:42:16.280 --> 0:42:20.080 we're covering fifty two neighborhoods and additional municipalities, it may 0:42:20.120 --> 0:42:22.440 be super clear for the kids going to Hayesport or 0:42:22.520 --> 0:42:25.879 one day, but then an entirely different look in terms 0:42:25.880 --> 0:42:28.480 of the streets where the kids in Silverton go to school. 0:42:28.760 --> 0:42:31.120 And so sometimes a parent may say, you know what, 0:42:31.160 --> 0:42:33.719 I'm going to keep my kid home because my sidewalk, 0:42:34.040 --> 0:42:36.160 my cul de sact is not as clear as I 0:42:36.200 --> 0:42:38.840 needed to be guess what that counts against us in 0:42:38.920 --> 0:42:42.359 terms of chronic absenteeism. But I support parents making the 0:42:42.400 --> 0:42:45.720 best decision for their family, so we continue to educate. 0:42:46.000 --> 0:42:47.880 There used to be a time when I was growing up. 0:42:48.000 --> 0:42:50.680 Maybe you're out of school for a dental appointment in 0:42:50.719 --> 0:42:52.960 the morning, and maybe a parent will decide we'll keep 0:42:53.000 --> 0:42:56.000 them out for the entire school day. We're encouraging parents 0:42:56.000 --> 0:42:58.279 to bring your kid for that second half of the 0:42:58.320 --> 0:43:01.160 school day because every hour, every minute counts. 0:43:01.400 --> 0:43:05.680 She's Seana Murphy. She's the CPS head and CPS the 0:43:05.760 --> 0:43:09.040 superintendent and won a huge levey yesterday. It's as a 0:43:09.080 --> 0:43:11.960 Renault levee forty eight million dollars. And I mentioned too 0:43:12.440 --> 0:43:14.360 before we got into the air. It's like, wow, Lakota, 0:43:14.680 --> 0:43:17.040 that's a half billion, forty eight million dollar renewal. Is 0:43:17.080 --> 0:43:20.560 nothing compared to a half billion dollar levee. And that's 0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:22.759 I don't know how you overcome that. I really really 0:43:22.760 --> 0:43:25.960 don't mean you've followed because it's your business shop followed it. 0:43:26.480 --> 0:43:28.359 What's your take on it is it's just too much. 0:43:28.560 --> 0:43:32.360 Well, if that were me, it would be immediate conversations 0:43:32.400 --> 0:43:36.560 starting today with the people of that area, and so 0:43:37.160 --> 0:43:38.120 I wish them the best. 0:43:38.160 --> 0:43:41.200 It is really hard work, really tough work. 0:43:41.280 --> 0:43:44.319 I commend the superintendent for putting out there what the 0:43:44.440 --> 0:43:47.840 need is. That's exactly what we did, and I'm only 0:43:47.880 --> 0:43:51.040 grateful that the people of Cincinnati said yes to us 0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:51.799 last night. 0:43:51.920 --> 0:43:55.000 Yeah, yeah, and yeah, it's a well earned win. But 0:43:55.040 --> 0:43:57.359 I think it's if you weren't making progress it, it wouldn't. 0:43:57.000 --> 0:43:57.520 Be happening, right. 0:43:57.560 --> 0:43:58.600 I agree with you a thok. 0:43:58.440 --> 0:43:59.680 About chronic captainteism. 0:43:59.680 --> 0:44:02.440 That's scores and there's schools that are our way under failing, 0:44:02.560 --> 0:44:04.279 and it's a whole host of different problems in the 0:44:04.280 --> 0:44:05.480 city than it is in the burps. 0:44:05.560 --> 0:44:05.759 Yeah. 0:44:05.800 --> 0:44:08.160 Well, we do have the number one state in the 0:44:08.239 --> 0:44:10.000 number one school in Ohio. 0:44:10.320 --> 0:44:11.719 We do have the. 0:44:11.480 --> 0:44:15.560 Best performing arts school. We do have elementary schools that 0:44:15.680 --> 0:44:19.120 are improving. We do have a school for gifted and 0:44:19.200 --> 0:44:23.960 exceptional children that enrollment is growing because of some changes 0:44:24.000 --> 0:44:26.400 that we made with our growth plan. And so we 0:44:26.440 --> 0:44:29.960 do have athletes who are selling, We have artists who 0:44:30.000 --> 0:44:33.520 are doing really really well. We are increasing our career 0:44:33.520 --> 0:44:37.200 and technical education experiences for young people. We have something 0:44:37.360 --> 0:44:40.920 for everyone, and we have a space for everyone. 0:44:41.360 --> 0:44:43.000 One of the other elements of this too. I wonder 0:44:43.000 --> 0:44:44.960 how this is IFISF factored at all in the parent's decision. 0:44:45.040 --> 0:44:48.000 Is another controversial thing with transportation, right taking the seventh 0:44:48.040 --> 0:44:49.880 and twelfth graders and put them on Metro busses and 0:44:49.880 --> 0:44:52.520 the like. Was that the right move in retrospect? I 0:44:52.560 --> 0:44:54.200 mean you had to make that move financially speaking. 0:44:54.760 --> 0:44:57.839 Yeah, so let's start at mister song. Financially speaking, every 0:44:57.920 --> 0:45:01.080 Yellow Bus student is about three thousand dollars. Every Metro 0:45:01.120 --> 0:45:03.960 student is about three hundred dollars, and so we had 0:45:03.960 --> 0:45:06.480 to be fiscally responsible knowing that that was an option. 0:45:06.840 --> 0:45:09.480 So actually two years ago we put the majority of 0:45:09.480 --> 0:45:12.560 our seventh graders back on the Metro, and this past 0:45:12.600 --> 0:45:15.320 year we put our remaining schools maybe there were about 0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:17.640 four schools or so with seventh and eighth graders and 0:45:17.680 --> 0:45:20.400 the shift to the middle schools and junior highs, and 0:45:20.480 --> 0:45:23.359 so we did have some experience in that area. We've 0:45:23.360 --> 0:45:27.200 worked very closely with Metro. We meet with them and 0:45:27.280 --> 0:45:30.239 talk with them on a regular and consistent basis. When 0:45:30.280 --> 0:45:33.560 we do run into problems, hey, we start the conversation 0:45:33.760 --> 0:45:35.040 and we problem solve together. 0:45:36.080 --> 0:45:37.960 Juvenile crime has been a problem, especially in the summer 0:45:37.960 --> 0:45:40.080 months when those hands are off. But it's been a 0:45:40.120 --> 0:45:42.120 year on and we changed the metro cards in order 0:45:42.200 --> 0:45:44.600 to say you can't come downtown and off hours. This 0:45:44.760 --> 0:45:46.719 is for school and for school only. What else have 0:45:46.760 --> 0:45:48.560 you done behind the scenes, Maybe we haven't heard about that. 0:45:48.719 --> 0:45:51.319 Yeah, absolutely, So with the metro cars, we do cut 0:45:51.360 --> 0:45:54.080 them off a little bit earlier. We do have cars 0:45:54.080 --> 0:45:58.279 that designate whether a kid should need to transfer. We 0:45:58.360 --> 0:46:01.040 have reduced it to a minimum number of kids who 0:46:01.080 --> 0:46:04.000 have to transfer and no more than one transfer. In 0:46:04.040 --> 0:46:07.080 addition to that, we're a positive school culture district, So 0:46:07.120 --> 0:46:09.440 we teach, and we reteach and we restore. 0:46:09.920 --> 0:46:13.719 Kids make mistakes. People make mistakes. They do mess up. 0:46:13.760 --> 0:46:18.160 Sometimes it's a particular population of the student body that 0:46:18.320 --> 0:46:21.200 it's very visible for. But I am grateful for the 0:46:21.239 --> 0:46:24.799 community partners who have helped us in reducing some of 0:46:24.840 --> 0:46:27.800 the issues that we saw two years ago, three years ago. 0:46:28.560 --> 0:46:30.879 And so we'll continue to partner, we continue to work 0:46:30.920 --> 0:46:32.760 on it, and we continue to work together. 0:46:32.840 --> 0:46:34.080 It takes all hands on decks. 0:46:34.200 --> 0:46:35.839 You're going to solve it by any means, and there's 0:46:35.840 --> 0:46:37.320 going to be a certain percentage you're not going to 0:46:37.320 --> 0:46:39.600 be able to reach. It's just human nature. But I 0:46:39.640 --> 0:46:42.400 think people voters probably appreciated the fact and that nuance 0:46:42.480 --> 0:46:45.839 that improvements were being made. Now is it's still too high? Yeah, 0:46:45.880 --> 0:46:48.759 but again I look at it and say, there's only 0:46:48.760 --> 0:46:50.279 some that you can control. I mean a lot of 0:46:50.280 --> 0:46:52.480 this happens at home too. You can't go at people's 0:46:52.480 --> 0:46:54.239 houses and raise the kids either. 0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:56.879 I feel like this worked with young people in terms 0:46:56.880 --> 0:47:00.680 of getting them educated as a home school community partnership, 0:47:01.200 --> 0:47:05.560 and when that breaks down, then we have trouble. Right now, 0:47:05.800 --> 0:47:09.799 I am very, very encouraged by the level of communication 0:47:10.520 --> 0:47:13.960 with home, with school, with community. We will continue to 0:47:13.960 --> 0:47:16.640 dig into that and make this city the best city 0:47:16.680 --> 0:47:17.040 it can be. 0:47:17.120 --> 0:47:19.920 All Right, take got another ten years. What happens in 0:47:19.960 --> 0:47:20.760 the next ten years? 0:47:20.840 --> 0:47:24.640 Yeah, So, so the next ten years, guess what think 0:47:24.640 --> 0:47:28.719 about those three year olds? Okay, they'll be thirteen in 0:47:28.760 --> 0:47:31.520 their middle school days, which is the area that we're 0:47:31.560 --> 0:47:34.800 working to develop and strengthen. It should be a better 0:47:34.840 --> 0:47:37.720 outlook for them. Then that means they're headed to high school, 0:47:38.040 --> 0:47:40.680 and then we look towards graduation day. My favorite days 0:47:40.680 --> 0:47:42.880 of school. There are two, the first day of school 0:47:43.120 --> 0:47:46.799 and graduation day. There's nothing more fulfilling than seeing a 0:47:46.840 --> 0:47:50.440 young person go across that stage, get their diploma and 0:47:50.520 --> 0:47:53.680 head into being employed and listed in the military or 0:47:53.760 --> 0:47:56.359 enrolled in the college or university of their choice, or. 0:47:56.320 --> 0:48:00.920 Trade school or trade school. Absolutely big proponent of the 0:48:00.920 --> 0:48:03.160 trades myself. I'm involved with groups that do that, and 0:48:03.200 --> 0:48:04.840 I know personally for Sam because of the group I 0:48:04.880 --> 0:48:07.160 was in till recently, in Spirit of Constructions, we are 0:48:07.840 --> 0:48:10.360 programs in Woodward and it's like in thirty something schools 0:48:10.400 --> 0:48:12.680 right now, because I mean, let's face it, we lose 0:48:12.760 --> 0:48:15.439 lost so many kids, generations of kids because we only 0:48:15.440 --> 0:48:17.520 taught one way to learn. And now it's like applied 0:48:18.520 --> 0:48:21.040 mathematics or physics or all the things that you would learn. 0:48:21.360 --> 0:48:22.920 Now I can touch it seat and feel it. I 0:48:22.960 --> 0:48:24.520 have an incentive to go to school. I feel like 0:48:24.560 --> 0:48:26.759 I'm connected now and not, you know, some sort of 0:48:26.800 --> 0:48:29.480 freak because I don't understand when we put numbers and 0:48:29.560 --> 0:48:31.879 letters together like I did with algebra, I'm like, I'm out. 0:48:31.920 --> 0:48:32.880 I don't know what that means. 0:48:32.960 --> 0:48:35.239 No, you're living out your dream. You're not what you 0:48:35.480 --> 0:48:37.400 want to feeling to you. 0:48:37.440 --> 0:48:39.640 And I was blessed to be able to start eleven 0:48:39.719 --> 0:48:42.719 years at Woodward Career Technical High School where we train 0:48:42.880 --> 0:48:47.759 kids and how technologies feel, building construction fields and advanced manufacturing. 0:48:48.000 --> 0:48:48.799 We grew that out. 0:48:48.800 --> 0:48:51.440 This year we added entrepreneurship. You know why because the 0:48:51.520 --> 0:48:53.040 kids that I want to know how to be an 0:48:53.120 --> 0:48:56.640 entrepreneur business and we are looking forward to adding even 0:48:56.760 --> 0:49:03.080 more programming in terms of having automotive is another area 0:49:03.120 --> 0:49:05.759 that kids are asking all that stuff back, bringing those 0:49:05.840 --> 0:49:07.320 pieces back one of the back. 0:49:07.680 --> 0:49:09.320 One of the biggest mistakes I think was doing to 0:49:09.360 --> 0:49:11.479 farming that out and not that you know, the Oaks 0:49:11.520 --> 0:49:13.400 system is great, but you know, having an in school 0:49:13.440 --> 0:49:14.640 is good thing. We got to get on a you 0:49:14.680 --> 0:49:17.839 do to Seanna Murphy, CBS Superintendent, thanks again for coming in. 0:49:17.760 --> 0:49:19.680 Congradulation, pleasure. Thank you for showing me with. 0:49:19.760 --> 0:49:22.359 News on the way and Julie on the job next 0:49:22.400 --> 0:49:23.200 seven hundred. 0:49:25.800 --> 0:49:31.360 Helping you navigate the rocky path the fulfilling employment. Here's 0:49:31.400 --> 0:49:34.080 our career sure, Julie Balki. 0:49:33.880 --> 0:49:35.799 Yeah, she jumped on the shevery Wednesday morning, a little 0:49:35.800 --> 0:49:38.160 career tune up and I think today, Julie, this would 0:49:38.160 --> 0:49:40.680 be a great day to in the office or workploaw 0:49:40.719 --> 0:49:43.279 whatever it is, talk about the election a lot to 0:49:43.320 --> 0:49:45.719 your co core and get take a firm stand on 0:49:45.719 --> 0:49:48.240 one side or the other and espouse your political views 0:49:48.280 --> 0:49:50.000 and call them stupid for announcing it your way. 0:49:50.040 --> 0:49:51.320 I think that's a great strategy. 0:49:52.360 --> 0:49:55.000 It really is where where put flags up on your desk, 0:49:55.080 --> 0:49:59.440 where your hat you're starts this pumping these people taunt people. 0:49:59.640 --> 0:50:02.920 Yeah yeah, I would totally think about doing that right now. 0:50:02.960 --> 0:50:05.080 Like you know, if you're a Democrat and you want, 0:50:05.120 --> 0:50:07.440 i'd be like, you know, getting someone's face and then 0:50:07.480 --> 0:50:09.759 if you're a Republican you lost and yelling at people 0:50:09.800 --> 0:50:10.880 how you're ruining the country. 0:50:10.920 --> 0:50:12.240 I think that's a good I think. 0:50:12.120 --> 0:50:15.880 That's solid, a solid strategy for workplace, the workplace environment. 0:50:15.880 --> 0:50:17.160 I think it's a good idea you have. Some people 0:50:17.200 --> 0:50:17.640 will be doing that. 0:50:17.800 --> 0:50:20.960 Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's not what's not 0:50:21.040 --> 0:50:21.359 what's not? 0:50:21.480 --> 0:50:21.920 Say we did? 0:50:22.080 --> 0:50:24.200 My dad used to say, good lord, there's people that 0:50:24.280 --> 0:50:26.480 do that stuff. I don't know, I don't know. 0:50:27.239 --> 0:50:31.000 All right, So Amazon's laying off like fourteen thousand corporate employees. 0:50:31.000 --> 0:50:34.080 We're back to the AI topic. The biggest corporate job 0:50:34.080 --> 0:50:36.760 cuts in history. I believe of Amazon they could affect 0:50:37.080 --> 0:50:39.759 in the upwards of thirty thousand employees. So you cut 0:50:39.800 --> 0:50:42.320 me on fourteen thousand, it's going to affect thirty thousand overall. 0:50:42.840 --> 0:50:47.560 And it's not just unique to Amazon Metas did it, Microsoft, Google. 0:50:48.360 --> 0:50:50.840 Tons of companies are doing Kroger, maybe for different reasons. 0:50:50.840 --> 0:50:52.560 I don't know if that's AI related or not, but 0:50:52.880 --> 0:50:55.360 the bottom line is companies can grow to the revenue 0:50:55.640 --> 0:50:58.200 with fewer employers because of AI. That's really what's going 0:50:58.239 --> 0:50:58.560 on here. 0:51:00.280 --> 0:51:04.320 Yeah, it's interesting because we have all these these several 0:51:04.360 --> 0:51:07.480 things that are true at once that are conflicting. One 0:51:07.480 --> 0:51:09.040 of the things that I was reading this article about 0:51:09.040 --> 0:51:11.359 the Amazon laos in fourteen thousand, now, like you said, 0:51:11.400 --> 0:51:15.640 but up to thirty thousand. It's so that here's their 0:51:15.800 --> 0:51:18.360 official statement. We want to get even stronger by further 0:51:18.440 --> 0:51:23.040 reducing bureaucracy, removing layers, and shifting resources to ensure we're 0:51:23.080 --> 0:51:26.560 investing in our biggest bet and what matters most to 0:51:26.600 --> 0:51:29.600 our customers, curt and future needs. It's so interesting because 0:51:29.600 --> 0:51:31.279 I think, you know, you push that too far, you 0:51:31.320 --> 0:51:33.480 won't have many customers because people won't be able to 0:51:33.480 --> 0:51:35.440 afford what it is you're selling. 0:51:36.040 --> 0:51:37.200 You know, what are we doing? 0:51:38.400 --> 0:51:41.800 And I get the idea of every company I was reading, 0:51:41.840 --> 0:51:44.000 you know, all this, all these companies saying we're going 0:51:44.040 --> 0:51:47.520 to continue to grow, including Walmarts saying we're going to 0:51:47.560 --> 0:51:50.040 continue to grow, but we're going to keep our employee 0:51:50.160 --> 0:51:55.040 count flat, which means AI. Of course, the companies have 0:51:55.080 --> 0:51:57.160 it fully figured out how to use it, but it 0:51:57.200 --> 0:52:01.279 also means shifting more work onto the people that are 0:52:01.400 --> 0:52:04.040 left onto the people that are left behind, and people 0:52:04.080 --> 0:52:09.440 are already saying I've had enough, I'm highly stressed. I 0:52:09.480 --> 0:52:11.399 don't want to take time off. I want to hang 0:52:11.400 --> 0:52:14.960 on to this job, and so it turns into a 0:52:15.120 --> 0:52:17.920 workforce that is an essence, thank you star going to 0:52:17.920 --> 0:52:22.280 have another right, and that is a really really, really 0:52:22.520 --> 0:52:26.520 long term, bad long term strategy because people aren't humans, 0:52:26.560 --> 0:52:29.040 you know, kind of this guy that came out and 0:52:29.080 --> 0:52:31.080 said the quiet part out loud a couple of months 0:52:31.120 --> 0:52:34.800 ago talking about AI, and he said, yeah, I'm looking 0:52:34.800 --> 0:52:40.040 forward to replacing people with AI because robots don't talk back, 0:52:40.160 --> 0:52:43.400 robots don't take time off. So I'm like, okay, you 0:52:43.440 --> 0:52:49.680 know that's really because we talk about the challenge of 0:52:49.760 --> 0:52:52.960 leaving a workforce, the challenge of managing the challenge of 0:52:53.000 --> 0:52:57.319 dealing with people's issues and problems, the stuff that if 0:52:57.360 --> 0:53:00.319 you are if you've got a warehouse full of robots 0:53:00.880 --> 0:53:04.719 or just a fully automated warehouse, you don't have to 0:53:04.760 --> 0:53:06.879 deal with those things. You're dealing with things that can 0:53:06.920 --> 0:53:10.000 be fixed, and they can be fixed without dealing with 0:53:10.040 --> 0:53:13.120 the gray areas people they fill off on time they work, 0:53:13.640 --> 0:53:17.359 and so that's there's almost like this this giddiness with 0:53:17.440 --> 0:53:20.279 some company leaders saying how far can we push this? 0:53:21.120 --> 0:53:25.879 But you're you're also you're also forgetting that when people 0:53:25.960 --> 0:53:32.520 are unemployed, homeless, have nothing, they can't buy yourself. Yeah, 0:53:32.320 --> 0:53:34.319 so what are we answer? It's how do you know, 0:53:34.360 --> 0:53:35.080 how do you strike that? 0:53:35.200 --> 0:53:35.520 Right now? 0:53:35.719 --> 0:53:37.799 I certainly don't have any answer, but it's a big 0:53:37.920 --> 0:53:39.719 question I think we need to deal with. 0:53:40.560 --> 0:53:40.759 Well. 0:53:40.800 --> 0:53:43.520 I think the dynamic of automation makes stuff cheaper because 0:53:43.520 --> 0:53:46.239 it's cheaper than labor. And I'm not saying that is 0:53:46.520 --> 0:53:48.680 to be careless or cruel. That's just the fact of it, right, 0:53:48.760 --> 0:53:48.880 is it? 0:53:48.960 --> 0:53:50.160 Ai? You're right, it doesn't. 0:53:50.239 --> 0:53:52.160 There are no sick days, there's no hey, my my 0:53:53.000 --> 0:53:54.680 kids home, I got to stay home. You know, you 0:53:54.719 --> 0:53:57.000 do need people to do it, but you know, for 0:53:57.000 --> 0:53:58.440 people to say okay, well this is it. You know, 0:53:58.440 --> 0:53:59.600 we're going to have to we're going to get rid 0:53:59.600 --> 0:54:02.719 all of these jobs and stuff. I'd say the global perspective, 0:54:02.719 --> 0:54:06.440 big picture is, Look, there's always been technicologtical shifts, right, 0:54:06.440 --> 0:54:09.000 There's always been a game changer out there. 0:54:09.080 --> 0:54:10.279 Ais latest to that. 0:54:10.360 --> 0:54:12.840 You know how many people lost their jobs when the 0:54:12.840 --> 0:54:16.680 automobile came along. That we're in, you know, the livery 0:54:16.680 --> 0:54:19.759 business and livery and you know, horses and barns and 0:54:19.760 --> 0:54:22.319 hay farmers and okay, horse are going away. We've got 0:54:22.360 --> 0:54:24.399 the automobile. It just creates a new sector of jobs, 0:54:24.400 --> 0:54:24.839 that's all. 0:54:26.080 --> 0:54:28.600 Yeah, it does, but I think it's going to create 0:54:28.800 --> 0:54:30.239 less jobs. 0:54:30.760 --> 0:54:31.560 It'll be interesting. 0:54:31.600 --> 0:54:34.840 But when you look also at the demographics, fewer people. 0:54:34.920 --> 0:54:38.319 I mean that birth rates are down and integration of 0:54:38.360 --> 0:54:40.920 courses down, and so the number of people to do 0:54:41.000 --> 0:54:42.480 those jobs is. 0:54:42.440 --> 0:54:43.080 Going to be less. 0:54:43.080 --> 0:54:44.719 So we have to see how this is. We have 0:54:44.760 --> 0:54:47.560 to see how this is going to play out. But 0:54:47.800 --> 0:54:51.840 it's really really confusing. Look, if I was eighteen or 0:54:51.880 --> 0:54:55.279 twenty two, or my job is going away. It's like 0:54:55.920 --> 0:54:58.560 everybody I talked to, no one knows which way to turn, 0:54:58.640 --> 0:55:01.440 and all the experts I follow, Oh, are kind of 0:55:02.400 --> 0:55:04.600 or a little a little uh loss too when it 0:55:04.640 --> 0:55:07.360 comes to what do you tell people? What do you 0:55:07.400 --> 0:55:10.839 tell people to learn? What do you tell people to marre? Yeah, 0:55:10.880 --> 0:55:15.160 it's just it's a very interesting shift. And we see 0:55:15.239 --> 0:55:17.279 read another article that was talking about how many new 0:55:17.280 --> 0:55:20.440 college grads because we've talked about for the bottleneck of 0:55:20.480 --> 0:55:23.000 the last couple of years, but new college grads not 0:55:23.040 --> 0:55:24.960 being able to find any what we used to call 0:55:25.040 --> 0:55:29.320 white collar jobs, and they are, they are switching. There's 0:55:29.360 --> 0:55:31.040 a movement to say, you know, I got to work 0:55:31.680 --> 0:55:35.080 and maybe I take and reskill toward the trades. And 0:55:35.120 --> 0:55:39.359 so there's there's and it's healthy in some ways, but 0:55:39.400 --> 0:55:42.160 we really are in the ugly parts of it where 0:55:42.200 --> 0:55:45.799 we have there's all these competing factors that are really they. 0:55:45.760 --> 0:55:46.640 Have people stopped. 0:55:47.040 --> 0:55:48.880 That's not just twenty five year olds, but it's forty 0:55:48.880 --> 0:55:51.719 five and fifty five year olds that still need to work, 0:55:51.800 --> 0:55:53.440 don't have the luxury of retiring. 0:55:55.040 --> 0:55:57.200 Julie belcair Career Sure up on the Scotsland Show seven 0:55:57.280 --> 0:56:00.359 hundred WW the Big AI moment here at Amazon laying off 0:56:00.400 --> 0:56:03.120 fourteen thousand effect thirty thousand jobs a bunch of big 0:56:03.160 --> 0:56:05.880 tech companies are doing it, and I think it's interesting 0:56:06.800 --> 0:56:10.160 that this is what the manufacturing industry went through the eighties, 0:56:10.200 --> 0:56:12.840 seventies and eighties, and that is robotics coming in and 0:56:12.880 --> 0:56:16.560 replacing factory jobs and eventually that those jobs got farmed out. 0:56:16.600 --> 0:56:20.120 But now the white collar folks are seeing it because 0:56:20.160 --> 0:56:22.400 my parents blue collar folks. They're like, hey, you're going 0:56:22.440 --> 0:56:24.319 to school, you have no choice. Okay, I got thought 0:56:24.360 --> 0:56:27.960 through it. But at the same time, I look at it, going, yeah, 0:56:28.000 --> 0:56:29.920 this is what they went through back in the seventies 0:56:29.960 --> 0:56:33.160 and eighties with automation. This is just AI now taking 0:56:33.200 --> 0:56:35.399 white collar jobs. So it used to be blue collar. 0:56:35.440 --> 0:56:37.200 Now white collar jobs are getting hit by this. 0:56:38.840 --> 0:56:39.799 Yeah, and so you. 0:56:39.719 --> 0:56:44.200 Think it's this fur demarcation between blue collar jobs and 0:56:44.239 --> 0:56:45.000 white collar jobs. 0:56:45.239 --> 0:56:47.319 How does the dogs? How do we call them jobs? 0:56:47.320 --> 0:56:47.880 Their jobs? 0:56:47.920 --> 0:56:51.399 And yeah, if you are technically skilled, if you love 0:56:51.440 --> 0:56:53.640 working with your hands, if you've got that, you may 0:56:53.640 --> 0:56:56.320 be an engineer. You also might be an automachanic. And 0:56:57.280 --> 0:57:00.400 that's okay. I think we have to get we have 0:57:00.560 --> 0:57:02.839 to get our head out of this away from this 0:57:02.960 --> 0:57:07.239 idea that there's one path in this country to what 0:57:07.280 --> 0:57:10.640 we call success because that those days are long gone. 0:57:10.800 --> 0:57:13.120 Just to ask anybody who's out there with a four 0:57:13.200 --> 0:57:15.439 year degree, who's been out of school for two years 0:57:15.480 --> 0:57:18.120 or less, how they're feeling about this this path to 0:57:18.480 --> 0:57:21.800 you know, this school, this golden brick road to success 0:57:21.840 --> 0:57:23.840 that they feel like they were promised. You know, there 0:57:23.840 --> 0:57:27.320 are a lot of cases are just they're so demoralized 0:57:27.560 --> 0:57:30.520 and just can't seem to get a toe hold in 0:57:30.600 --> 0:57:35.160 the market. And it's just, you know, it's it's I 0:57:35.240 --> 0:57:37.320 wish I had the one you know, I wish I 0:57:37.320 --> 0:57:38.160 had the one answer. 0:57:38.240 --> 0:57:40.240 But well, I'll bring it, Julie. I'll bring this back 0:57:40.280 --> 0:57:41.520 to politics for a second. 0:57:41.600 --> 0:57:42.880 With mom. 0:57:42.960 --> 0:57:44.840 Danny went into New York City. It's a lot of 0:57:44.960 --> 0:57:48.520 gen Zer's younger millennials, and these are young professionals, you know, 0:57:48.960 --> 0:57:50.960 world enough. Remember back in the you know, like in 0:57:51.000 --> 0:57:54.480 the eighties when you had the Reagan Republicans, it took 0:57:54.560 --> 0:57:56.360 Wall Street and everything else and greet Is Good and 0:57:56.400 --> 0:57:58.480 Gordon Gecko and that was a huge wave and no one, 0:57:58.640 --> 0:58:01.000 Oh my god, these young people and they want conservatism. 0:58:01.000 --> 0:58:01.840 I don't know what that is. 0:58:02.240 --> 0:58:04.440 Fast forward a couple of generations, and that's kind of 0:58:04.480 --> 0:58:06.440 what's happened in New York, and if you look at 0:58:06.440 --> 0:58:09.680 that effect also Jersey, Virginia, hell leaving here in Cincinnati, 0:58:09.720 --> 0:58:13.800 we saw Anderson Township flip blue, Fortel school Board flip blue. 0:58:13.840 --> 0:58:16.480 So it's not just an outlier. They're the big margins 0:58:16.480 --> 0:58:19.480 that city council, in particular, Raftet pure Voult won by 0:58:19.520 --> 0:58:22.240 despite all the you know, the crime issues and the 0:58:22.360 --> 0:58:25.960 connective communities and Hyde Park and all that stuff. The 0:58:26.000 --> 0:58:27.440 big picture on this when it comes to job, I 0:58:27.480 --> 0:58:29.760 think there's just a bunch of young people are angry 0:58:29.840 --> 0:58:32.760 and pissed off and are so desperate they'd vote for 0:58:32.760 --> 0:58:34.959 a socialist because there's a promise of a better life 0:58:34.960 --> 0:58:37.000 with them that they're not seeing right now. I think 0:58:37.040 --> 0:58:38.880 that's translating to what we're talking about here, and that 0:58:39.000 --> 0:58:40.360 I did everything I was supposed to go. I went 0:58:40.360 --> 0:58:42.760 to college's got a degree. Now I've got debt, I 0:58:42.760 --> 0:58:45.439 can't afford anything. I've got roommates. I should be living 0:58:45.480 --> 0:58:48.600 on my own. I'm frustrated. I'm taking it out on capitalism. 0:58:48.640 --> 0:58:49.560 Is that kind of what's going on? 0:58:50.640 --> 0:58:52.800 Yeah, there's definitely some of that because the young people, 0:58:53.200 --> 0:58:57.440 when you look at so this past summer we reached 0:58:57.440 --> 0:59:01.760 that mark for Gen Z out numbered boomers at work, 0:59:02.320 --> 0:59:06.400 and so every day that goes by more I mean duh, 0:59:06.640 --> 0:59:11.840 more older people die and younger people become adults, and 0:59:11.880 --> 0:59:14.520 so the world they grew up in, the world they 0:59:14.560 --> 0:59:17.760 see right now is very different than the one you 0:59:17.800 --> 0:59:21.240 and I saw. And they don't feel like they can 0:59:21.280 --> 0:59:23.000 own a house, they can do this, they can do that, 0:59:23.080 --> 0:59:25.680 and they're angry and they aren't getting married, they aren't 0:59:25.720 --> 0:59:27.640 having kids. I mean, there's a lot of that stuff 0:59:27.680 --> 0:59:30.800 that goes on, and anything that the older generations do 0:59:30.920 --> 0:59:32.960 that just feels like we're patting them on the head 0:59:33.520 --> 0:59:36.200 and say just work harder, you know, feels. 0:59:35.920 --> 0:59:38.000 Like right now, right I'm ready working. 0:59:38.080 --> 0:59:40.760 I've got a job, I got side hustles, I got roommates. 0:59:40.800 --> 0:59:43.280 I can't work any article. And not only that, health 0:59:43.280 --> 0:59:45.880 insurance is a mess. I can't afford that. I got 0:59:45.880 --> 0:59:48.960 college dead, I got loans, I've got all this overhead. 0:59:49.040 --> 0:59:50.720 I just can't seem to save any money and get had. 0:59:50.760 --> 0:59:51.480 I totally get that. 0:59:52.960 --> 0:59:55.120 Yeah, yeah, and that's that's what we're starting to see that. 0:59:55.160 --> 0:59:59.440 And I think politically it's just fascinating to watch because 0:59:59.440 --> 1:00:03.200 as you see this generation get older and become more 1:00:03.360 --> 1:00:05.919 aware of what's going on around them, like what their 1:00:05.920 --> 1:00:10.640 possibilities and opportunities are. They will become more active, whether 1:00:10.680 --> 1:00:13.080 it's in voting, whether it's running for office, just like 1:00:13.120 --> 1:00:15.480 we talk about in the smaller microcosm of the world, 1:00:15.640 --> 1:00:20.000 the workplace. It's what I always say, the more younger 1:00:20.000 --> 1:00:24.200 people get into leadership positions, the more they will embrace 1:00:24.600 --> 1:00:28.040 hybrid work. They will reject return to the office. They 1:00:28.080 --> 1:00:31.760 will they will do things their way, and that works 1:00:31.800 --> 1:00:35.200 in the bigger picture as well. And so it's their world. 1:00:35.280 --> 1:00:35.720 I mean that. 1:00:35.680 --> 1:00:38.320 Boomers, you know, we're going to die sooner than they are, 1:00:38.440 --> 1:00:41.160 and so they look around and say, it's the world. 1:00:41.240 --> 1:00:43.600 What's the world I want it to be? And of 1:00:43.640 --> 1:00:45.920 course we're going to and shake our heads, just like 1:00:45.960 --> 1:00:48.840 the generations ahead of us did. But it's you know, 1:00:48.880 --> 1:00:50.280 there's no turning that back around. 1:00:50.600 --> 1:00:53.120 Yeah, I mean, I know it works, right. 1:00:53.160 --> 1:00:55.360 It's like the younger generation takes over and it's supposed 1:00:55.360 --> 1:00:57.360 to offend the sensibilities of older generation. So that's the 1:00:57.360 --> 1:00:59.160 way it's always been. I accept that, and I realize 1:00:59.200 --> 1:01:01.520 I'm the part of the back half of that. And watch, Okay, well, 1:01:01.560 --> 1:01:03.880 as your turnout to screw things up, and then you know, 1:01:04.040 --> 1:01:06.680 in thirty years your kids will be crapping on what 1:01:06.720 --> 1:01:08.160 you did, and I'll probably go the other way, and 1:01:08.200 --> 1:01:08.720 so it goes. 1:01:09.280 --> 1:01:12.360 Yeah, yeah, that's right. You know, it'd be interesting to 1:01:12.400 --> 1:01:14.560 have a crystal ball and look ahead. Not sure i'd 1:01:14.560 --> 1:01:16.160 want to, you know, I got to go both sides. 1:01:16.600 --> 1:01:18.480 Yeah, I'm just doing an interesting experiment to see what 1:01:18.480 --> 1:01:21.120 happens to New York with socialism, because those promises are 1:01:21.360 --> 1:01:23.480 I think they're just promises, you know, all the stuff 1:01:23.480 --> 1:01:25.080 he wants to impose. I don't think it's going to work, 1:01:25.120 --> 1:01:27.160 but I get I get the desperateness of young people 1:01:27.160 --> 1:01:29.200 going listen, I just I'm tired of the same bs. 1:01:30.800 --> 1:01:31.200 Yeah. 1:01:31.240 --> 1:01:34.840 Absolutely, yeah, and to feel like and when we see 1:01:34.840 --> 1:01:38.040 this at work. So one of the ways that organizations 1:01:38.040 --> 1:01:42.040 are really failing here is they're still leading from the 1:01:42.080 --> 1:01:44.160 top down, pats on the head, I'll tell you what 1:01:44.280 --> 1:01:47.480 to do, instead of engaging with and getting the ideas 1:01:47.480 --> 1:01:50.560 of everybody. And that's what the younger generations want. They 1:01:50.560 --> 1:01:53.440 do have good ideas, and it is their workplace they're building, 1:01:53.960 --> 1:01:56.920 and so anything that smacks of I'll tell you what 1:01:56.920 --> 1:01:58.480 to think I'll tell you what to do, do as 1:01:58.520 --> 1:02:02.280 I say, not as I do, is immediately rejected by 1:02:02.320 --> 1:02:05.560 the younger generations. They're so they can snip out in 1:02:05.640 --> 1:02:09.600 authenticity so quickly. Where we, you know, frankly kind of did. 1:02:09.520 --> 1:02:10.200 What we were told. 1:02:10.680 --> 1:02:12.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1:02:12.000 --> 1:02:14.439 It's definitely a cultural shift in America's driving with the AI 1:02:14.560 --> 1:02:16.440 thing is I think the next thing is like, well, 1:02:16.480 --> 1:02:17.680 wait a minute, I did it on a sister, I 1:02:17.720 --> 1:02:19.400 got a degree, and now I'm gonna get a reply 1:02:19.480 --> 1:02:23.120 cake at a job because AI. And that's going to 1:02:23.160 --> 1:02:25.240 cause people to act the way they did when it 1:02:25.280 --> 1:02:27.280 comes to voting and getting involved in the in the 1:02:27.320 --> 1:02:30.120 process and those two that are tied together. It's workplace 1:02:30.320 --> 1:02:33.440 and also your vote. Julie Bouki our career Shirpound the 1:02:33.440 --> 1:02:35.360 Scott Sloane Show every Wednesday morning. 1:02:35.640 --> 1:02:38.240 She's at the Bauki Group. She's a career coach and consultant. 1:02:38.240 --> 1:02:39.720 She and her team ready to go to work for you. 1:02:39.760 --> 1:02:42.560 If you're trying to navigate these things, She's got you. Jewels, 1:02:42.560 --> 1:02:42.960 all the best. 1:02:43.000 --> 1:02:46.760 Have a great week, all right, with that news update 1:02:46.800 --> 1:02:48.680 in just minutes here on the Big one seven hundred 1:02:48.720 --> 1:02:51.200 WLW veryly as the election fallout. 1:02:51.200 --> 1:02:51.920 I'll have more on this. 1:02:52.000 --> 1:02:55.680 Jeff Weckbach here from Coloring Townships, the administrator there. They 1:02:56.080 --> 1:02:57.840 a levy their past and they've been trying to do 1:02:57.920 --> 1:03:00.320 this for like ten years to try and a new 1:03:00.320 --> 1:03:02.400 police levey for Cole Raine Township. I know we focused 1:03:02.400 --> 1:03:06.480 a lot on the actual job of politicians, right and 1:03:06.880 --> 1:03:09.200 whether it's city council or the mayor's office or whatever. 1:03:09.240 --> 1:03:11.760 But we had a lot of financial issues out there, 1:03:11.880 --> 1:03:14.920 money issues and initiatives, and the CHLORI one passed. They 1:03:14.960 --> 1:03:16.960 just had Seanna Murphy on about a half hour ago. 1:03:17.000 --> 1:03:20.360 An hour ago, actually, Seawan was in studio CPS superintendent 1:03:20.400 --> 1:03:22.960 about their big win and you look at what happened 1:03:22.960 --> 1:03:24.680 in places like Lakota, the loss big that was I 1:03:24.720 --> 1:03:26.160 think was just too big an ask for the folks 1:03:26.200 --> 1:03:28.680 in Lakota quite honestly, a half billion dollars versus forty 1:03:28.720 --> 1:03:31.680 eight million for Cincinnati, and that was just a renewal. 1:03:32.600 --> 1:03:34.520 But he's coming up in just a few here we'll 1:03:34.520 --> 1:03:36.439 talk about the financial side of that thing, and also 1:03:36.520 --> 1:03:39.400 kicking around what happened last night with Aftad Pueraval not 1:03:39.440 --> 1:03:42.560 only winning but also winning by almost eight and ten 1:03:42.680 --> 1:03:45.520 voters voted for Aftad Puerval, despite what happened to the chief, 1:03:45.760 --> 1:03:49.000 despite the crime, despite the violence, despite the connected communities 1:03:49.000 --> 1:03:53.760 in Hyde Park. He overwhelmed by an overwhelming margin, and 1:03:54.080 --> 1:03:58.000 certainly by all stretching accounts, that is a mandate eight 1:03:58.040 --> 1:03:58.880 out of ten voters. 1:03:59.080 --> 1:04:00.560 Question is, now, how do you with that? 1:04:01.600 --> 1:04:03.240 You know, do you simply go, Okay, we're going to 1:04:03.280 --> 1:04:05.160 continue to do the way things we're doing with crime 1:04:05.200 --> 1:04:08.480 and just let things slide. And apparently voters didn't care 1:04:08.480 --> 1:04:10.960 about that. In granted, you know, some people will portray 1:04:11.080 --> 1:04:14.640 Cincinnati as a dystopian hellhole and all near all fifty 1:04:14.640 --> 1:04:17.479 two neighbor it's not. It's certain sections at certain times 1:04:17.480 --> 1:04:20.800 in particular crimes. But these high profile crimes definitely hurt 1:04:20.880 --> 1:04:23.600 Cincinnati and help it hurts the people who want to 1:04:24.400 --> 1:04:26.240 build on there. At a gentleman on yesterday, they want 1:04:26.240 --> 1:04:28.400 to shot that video around the nightclub and you know, 1:04:28.440 --> 1:04:31.600 finding a gun laying in the in the grass literally 1:04:31.640 --> 1:04:33.960 steps away from the shots were fired. This is a 1:04:34.000 --> 1:04:37.000 guy trying to invest in downtown and build and make 1:04:37.040 --> 1:04:39.920 affordable housing and everything else. And you know, when you 1:04:39.960 --> 1:04:41.760 have that in your backyard, it makes it awfully tough 1:04:41.800 --> 1:04:44.360 to rent. So those are the uphill battles this new 1:04:44.400 --> 1:04:46.200 consul is facing, and all the other thing too, is 1:04:46.240 --> 1:04:48.320 not really a new council. Two people are new because 1:04:48.320 --> 1:04:50.160 of the two seats that are missing. Everything pretty much 1:04:50.160 --> 1:04:52.760 stayed the same. I think that's the most interesting takeaway here. 1:04:52.760 --> 1:04:54.880 We'll get into that much more just ahead, as the 1:04:54.920 --> 1:04:57.840 fall of continues this Wednesday, plus the death toll and 1:04:57.920 --> 1:05:01.000 Louisville with the ups crash yesterday late yesterday afternoon and 1:05:01.040 --> 1:05:04.480 early evening is now at nine. Governor Bscher saying there's 1:05:04.480 --> 1:05:06.720 still sixteen people on accounted for. I got can you 1:05:06.760 --> 1:05:10.480 imagine lays down all this and more news in just minutes, Sloaney, 1:05:10.560 --> 1:05:12.360 I'm the home of the best Bengals coverage seven hundred 1:05:12.360 --> 1:05:13.360 WWT Cincinnati. 1:05:13.600 --> 1:05:17.600 You want to be an American Scott Flom show. 1:05:17.480 --> 1:05:19.920 On seven hundred w Welvet coming off for big election 1:05:20.080 --> 1:05:23.040 last night, A big shocker, of course, across the border. 1:05:23.040 --> 1:05:25.040 It came to the political party in control. Let me 1:05:25.120 --> 1:05:28.080 the Democrats all the way from the east coast in Jersey, 1:05:28.680 --> 1:05:31.280 all the way through Anderson Township and school boards. More 1:05:31.320 --> 1:05:33.919 on that later on, but those are some interesting Levy 1:05:34.000 --> 1:05:37.800 issues out there in Cole Rain last year handled some 1:05:37.840 --> 1:05:40.080 fifty thousand calls of service last year a number of 1:05:40.120 --> 1:05:42.520 high profile crimes as well. And in the past two 1:05:42.520 --> 1:05:45.360 attempts of voters in Colerain Township did not approve a 1:05:45.440 --> 1:05:49.440 funding levee for police. Yesterday, fifty three percent of voters 1:05:49.440 --> 1:05:54.640 said yes, yes, we need a police levey. Jeff Weckbox 1:05:54.760 --> 1:05:56.920 is here is the administrator of Coloring Township. Welcome to 1:05:56.960 --> 1:06:00.680 the show. Good morning, and congratulations, Hey Sat, thanks for 1:06:00.720 --> 1:06:03.880 having us. Yeah, yeah, I appreciate it. It's been more 1:06:03.920 --> 1:06:06.280 than a decan, I believe since the last level was approved. 1:06:06.280 --> 1:06:09.360 So the last one, as I recall, five year funding Levey, 1:06:09.400 --> 1:06:12.080 and you stretched that out twice as long as it 1:06:12.120 --> 1:06:14.200 should have been. Why did it win this time? 1:06:15.640 --> 1:06:20.200 You know, that's a great question. I think we listened 1:06:20.280 --> 1:06:22.880 after the past two failures and we heard a lot 1:06:22.880 --> 1:06:25.760 of feedback from the residents about where we should be 1:06:25.760 --> 1:06:28.400 prioritizing funding and what we should be putting dollars toward. 1:06:28.480 --> 1:06:31.720 And we took that to heart and we put a 1:06:31.720 --> 1:06:33.960 lot of our dollars from our general fund into our 1:06:33.960 --> 1:06:38.000 police departments. And you know, we then started to focus 1:06:38.040 --> 1:06:41.440 on making sure that we were appropriately responding to crime 1:06:41.960 --> 1:06:45.440 with the resources we had, and I think that that 1:06:45.600 --> 1:06:48.600 certainly helped letting the residents see that our level of 1:06:48.640 --> 1:06:50.960 service is where they wanted it to be, so that 1:06:51.000 --> 1:06:53.720 they could trust us to continue to provide that level 1:06:53.720 --> 1:06:55.120 of service for five more years. 1:06:55.280 --> 1:06:57.560 But you think too that, you know, fifty thousand calls 1:06:57.560 --> 1:06:59.800 from service is pretty significant for the size of coal Rain, 1:06:59.840 --> 1:07:02.640 and what's been happening when the residents call nine point 1:07:02.640 --> 1:07:06.520 one has been staffing issue. Have people noticed that, like, hey, 1:07:06.840 --> 1:07:09.120 we need to fund the police department here because the 1:07:09.160 --> 1:07:11.479 service times are getting Has that been an issue there? 1:07:12.640 --> 1:07:14.960 Yeah, I'd say that's probably a little bit of what 1:07:15.040 --> 1:07:17.200 was going on. So after the last two levees, we 1:07:17.240 --> 1:07:19.320 did have to make some cutbacks in terms of what 1:07:19.360 --> 1:07:23.160 we responded to and how we could respond with our 1:07:23.200 --> 1:07:26.760 current officer complements and when you break down shift schedules 1:07:26.760 --> 1:07:29.960 and all that fun stuff and different designations, we typically 1:07:30.040 --> 1:07:32.800 run about six officers on the street at any one time, 1:07:32.880 --> 1:07:34.479 and so when you start to do the simple map 1:07:34.520 --> 1:07:37.360 on fifty thousand calls a year, you know our officers 1:07:37.400 --> 1:07:39.800 are just responding from call to call to call, and 1:07:39.880 --> 1:07:42.200 not all calls are created equal. Some calls are going 1:07:42.240 --> 1:07:44.840 to require two to three officer responses, some are going 1:07:44.880 --> 1:07:48.680 to require one. And you know, the priority is always 1:07:48.680 --> 1:07:50.560 going to be the response to the calls that are 1:07:50.560 --> 1:07:52.640 going to have the greatest impact on safety. And so 1:07:53.880 --> 1:07:57.000 that may have meant that some of our lower level 1:07:57.160 --> 1:08:00.000 calls we're getting pushed down on sort of the schedule, 1:08:00.200 --> 1:08:02.160 and we were responding to them when we were able to, 1:08:02.760 --> 1:08:04.440 as opposed to immediately. 1:08:05.800 --> 1:08:07.880 And as it's approved, I believe you're going to get 1:08:07.880 --> 1:08:10.760 seven more officers. There's additional patrol beat that will happen, 1:08:11.160 --> 1:08:14.520 more traffic enforcement and obviously is what you're talking about, 1:08:14.560 --> 1:08:17.400 faster response times and quicker turnarounds when it comes to 1:08:17.520 --> 1:08:20.160 solving cases or working cases, and you can be a 1:08:20.160 --> 1:08:21.439 little bit more pre out, proactive. 1:08:21.439 --> 1:08:22.599 Give some breathing room here. 1:08:23.080 --> 1:08:25.479 Relative to the seven officers, how quickly can you get 1:08:25.520 --> 1:08:29.120 them on the ground and what's that timeline of returning. 1:08:30.160 --> 1:08:34.160 We've got a great team internally that because of some 1:08:34.160 --> 1:08:36.680 of the culture things that they've done, they've been out 1:08:36.720 --> 1:08:40.160 and about and I have full confidence that they're going 1:08:40.200 --> 1:08:43.320 to be able to recruit and fill those positions pretty quickly, 1:08:43.400 --> 1:08:45.800 probably within three to six months we'll be able to 1:08:45.840 --> 1:08:48.599 have those positions filled and then you're looking at another 1:08:48.640 --> 1:08:50.479 three months or so to actually get them up to 1:08:50.520 --> 1:08:54.160 speed and getting those officers deployed into our community. So 1:08:54.479 --> 1:08:57.200 within the year, I fully expect we'll be up and 1:08:57.280 --> 1:08:59.120 have those some positions all filled. 1:08:59.320 --> 1:09:01.360 Well, what's the patrol beat? What is that? 1:09:02.920 --> 1:09:05.439 Yeah, so right now we have five dedicated patrol beats. 1:09:05.479 --> 1:09:07.760 We're going to be creating a sixth. What this is 1:09:07.800 --> 1:09:09.719 going to do is allow us to keep a car 1:09:09.960 --> 1:09:13.160 more in Western coal Raine. Right now, if there is 1:09:13.200 --> 1:09:16.360 a call that requires a second car to respond to, 1:09:16.520 --> 1:09:19.040 oftentimes we're having a pool from different parts of the community. 1:09:19.680 --> 1:09:21.120 This is going to allow us to keep an officer 1:09:21.160 --> 1:09:24.639 out there more frequently. So by having that extra patrol beat, 1:09:25.400 --> 1:09:27.880 just the extra boots on the ground to respond to 1:09:27.920 --> 1:09:30.519 crimes and be responsive and proactive in. 1:09:30.560 --> 1:09:31.080 What we do. 1:09:31.400 --> 1:09:35.240 Jeff Weckbach, Administrator for Colorine Township and the Levy Pass there. 1:09:35.640 --> 1:09:37.640 Third time is the charm, I guess, so you're going 1:09:37.720 --> 1:09:39.800 to get more policing, more money for police. Do you 1:09:39.840 --> 1:09:42.719 think that what's happening in Cincinnati and the city relative 1:09:42.760 --> 1:09:45.240 to crime there and high profile crimes and the fact 1:09:45.280 --> 1:09:47.559 that you're two hundred cops short and a lot of 1:09:47.560 --> 1:09:49.799 candidates made a lot of hay out. Didn't get elected, 1:09:49.800 --> 1:09:52.599 but made hay on. It certainly got everyone's attentions, been 1:09:52.600 --> 1:09:54.800 the big story for the second half of the year's 1:09:54.840 --> 1:09:57.960 crime in Cincinnati. Did that help voters in Chlorine Township 1:09:57.960 --> 1:09:58.840 push them in this direction? 1:09:58.920 --> 1:09:59.080 Think? 1:10:00.920 --> 1:10:04.200 You know, I'm not sure what the individual voters were 1:10:04.240 --> 1:10:08.639 going through as they were kind of at the ballot box. Sure, certainly, 1:10:09.000 --> 1:10:11.960 I know we we like to focus on making sure 1:10:12.000 --> 1:10:16.680 that we're keeping our community safe, right, and so that 1:10:16.800 --> 1:10:18.679 was the biggest message we were bringing home is that 1:10:18.760 --> 1:10:21.280 this this levee, if it were to pass, is going 1:10:21.280 --> 1:10:24.439 to help not only keep col Raine safe, but help 1:10:24.520 --> 1:10:26.160 us become a safer community in. 1:10:26.160 --> 1:10:26.680 The long run. 1:10:26.760 --> 1:10:30.400 Yeah, and you know, my expectation is we'll be doing 1:10:30.400 --> 1:10:32.720 that by adding some police officers to the force and 1:10:32.760 --> 1:10:34.120 being able to retain what we've got. 1:10:34.439 --> 1:10:35.600 I think if being able to call right and you 1:10:35.600 --> 1:10:38.240 look at that and go, wow, if we neglect funding 1:10:38.240 --> 1:10:41.360 our police services, that that could be where we're had. 1:10:41.560 --> 1:10:44.479 I could totally see someone Chlorine thinking that way, because 1:10:44.479 --> 1:10:47.080 I mean, you mentioned the staffing shorts is alike it's 1:10:47.240 --> 1:10:49.280 hurt your ability to investigate them and solve some of 1:10:49.320 --> 1:10:51.200 these whole high profile crimes. Not that you're not, but 1:10:51.240 --> 1:10:54.400 it just takes longer. You can't be as proactive. And 1:10:54.479 --> 1:10:55.880 when you look at what's going on in the state, 1:10:55.920 --> 1:10:58.120 I can't help as a resident going all right this, 1:10:58.240 --> 1:11:01.000 So you know, we probably need to fund the police here. 1:11:01.240 --> 1:11:03.120 We don't want to run the problems that they're having 1:11:03.160 --> 1:11:06.040 in the city. I think voters maybe in the polling 1:11:06.080 --> 1:11:08.200 place made that connection for your talking. I don't know 1:11:08.200 --> 1:11:10.640 what forty eight bucks a year whatever, whatever it is, 1:11:10.680 --> 1:11:12.160 like that seems to be worth it to me. 1:11:12.240 --> 1:11:13.360 It's kind of a low buy in. 1:11:14.439 --> 1:11:16.240 Yeah, And you know, at the end of the day, 1:11:16.280 --> 1:11:18.880 we've got some specialized units, right, so we've got the 1:11:18.920 --> 1:11:22.439 impact units. Their focus is on those high profile crimes. 1:11:22.479 --> 1:11:25.760 And over the past several years they've taken enough bent 1:11:25.840 --> 1:11:27.639 and al and other things off the streets in col 1:11:27.760 --> 1:11:31.120 Rain that that could have really really harmed our residents. 1:11:31.720 --> 1:11:34.320 You know, the volume that they've actually gotten off the 1:11:34.320 --> 1:11:36.720 streets was enough that could have killed every resident in 1:11:36.720 --> 1:11:38.559 col Rain if everybody were to ingest it all at 1:11:38.560 --> 1:11:42.080 the same time. So they've certainly had an impact to 1:11:42.439 --> 1:11:45.160 the name of their unit. And you know, because of 1:11:45.160 --> 1:11:46.840 this levee, we're gonna be able to continue to do 1:11:46.920 --> 1:11:50.920 more of those things to be proactive and actually curb 1:11:51.000 --> 1:11:53.599 the crime, to hopefully keep it all out of Colrain. 1:11:53.680 --> 1:11:55.000 Are you going to see more of that then as 1:11:55.040 --> 1:11:55.600 a result of this. 1:11:56.640 --> 1:11:58.599 I think so yeah. I mean you're going to see 1:11:58.920 --> 1:12:00.600 any time that you're ranning off right, you're going to 1:12:00.640 --> 1:12:03.559 see sort of an uptick in some of your numbers, 1:12:03.640 --> 1:12:06.439 just initially because you are making more stops, you are 1:12:07.080 --> 1:12:09.800 finding and solving more of those cases up front. And 1:12:09.840 --> 1:12:11.960 then the idea is that the message starts to get 1:12:12.000 --> 1:12:13.559 out right that if you're going to do bad things 1:12:13.600 --> 1:12:15.400 in col Rain, you're going to be found and so 1:12:16.040 --> 1:12:19.519 hopefully then that just naturally deters that crime from our community. 1:12:19.840 --> 1:12:22.920 Yeah, this is in a rear view. But if the 1:12:23.040 --> 1:12:25.960 levee had failed instead of passed yesterday, what kind of 1:12:25.960 --> 1:12:26.960 cuts what would have you seen? 1:12:28.080 --> 1:12:30.400 Yeah, I mean, our our trustees were going to have 1:12:30.439 --> 1:12:35.280 some pretty significant conversations about what they would have had 1:12:35.280 --> 1:12:38.040 to do, because you can't still a four to five 1:12:38.080 --> 1:12:42.200 million dollar gap just overnight without some major programmatic changes. 1:12:43.439 --> 1:12:45.439 If they wanted to do that all in the police department. 1:12:45.560 --> 1:12:48.200 That would have been probably a third of apartment. I 1:12:48.200 --> 1:12:49.920 don't think that would have been the direction they would 1:12:49.960 --> 1:12:51.600 have gone, which would have meant that they would have 1:12:51.640 --> 1:12:53.840 had to look at other things, right, So that's taking 1:12:53.840 --> 1:12:57.360 a look at you know, whether that's our road program 1:12:57.720 --> 1:13:01.920 or our park and cutting back there, or cutting back 1:13:01.920 --> 1:13:04.559 and what we do in terms of senior services. There 1:13:04.600 --> 1:13:06.320 was a whole litany of things that they would have 1:13:06.360 --> 1:13:09.320 had to wade through and make policy decisions on. So 1:13:10.760 --> 1:13:13.320 basically looking at anything that is supported through the general 1:13:13.320 --> 1:13:14.160 fund is what they would have. 1:13:14.200 --> 1:13:14.760 Had to have done. 1:13:14.880 --> 1:13:17.000 Yeah, it would have been ugly, I think, and I 1:13:17.000 --> 1:13:19.599 think voters saw, hey listen there, they stretch this thing 1:13:19.600 --> 1:13:21.640 twice as long as it should have been. And of 1:13:21.640 --> 1:13:23.519 course we know the cost of everything is going up. 1:13:23.520 --> 1:13:27.400 You have not only officers to pay and benefits to give, 1:13:27.479 --> 1:13:30.240 but also there's a lot of material things like like 1:13:30.560 --> 1:13:33.160 you know, patrol, you equipment, the hard stuff too. 1:13:33.240 --> 1:13:34.760 The price of that has gone through the roof. 1:13:35.800 --> 1:13:36.000 Yeah. 1:13:36.040 --> 1:13:38.000 Well, and we didn't have body camps back in twenty 1:13:38.040 --> 1:13:41.200 fourteen when we left Cast eleven, so I mean even that, Yeah, 1:13:41.520 --> 1:13:43.400 and we've seen those costs go up, you know, year 1:13:43.439 --> 1:13:45.439 over year. But those are things that just weren't on 1:13:45.479 --> 1:13:46.760 our books that are now now. 1:13:47.640 --> 1:13:50.320 This thing passed Jeff black Bock fifty three percent. Not 1:13:50.600 --> 1:13:53.880 it wasn't a It was enough to win obviously too, 1:13:53.880 --> 1:13:56.720 but there wasn't a mandate. Right, What would you say 1:13:56.760 --> 1:13:59.360 to the forty seven percent of people who voted against us, 1:14:00.160 --> 1:14:02.280 how do you prove to them this investment was worth it? 1:14:03.240 --> 1:14:03.439 Yeah? 1:14:03.760 --> 1:14:05.360 I think what we're going to do is we're going 1:14:05.439 --> 1:14:07.080 to prove that this investment was worth it over the 1:14:07.080 --> 1:14:10.720 next five years. This this levee was one that sunsets 1:14:10.080 --> 1:14:13.559 in five years, so you know, the mandate and the 1:14:13.560 --> 1:14:15.640 message which I actually sent a message out to our 1:14:15.640 --> 1:14:19.000 team this morning, was just that we've got five years 1:14:19.040 --> 1:14:21.000 to show that, you know, we're one of the best 1:14:21.000 --> 1:14:25.559 police departments in this country and proved of these residents 1:14:25.600 --> 1:14:30.479 that they're worth every dollar that they're paying. And I 1:14:30.520 --> 1:14:32.680 fully believe and expect that our apartment is going to 1:14:32.880 --> 1:14:36.640 come through and that they're going to do amazing, incredible 1:14:36.640 --> 1:14:38.680 work because I've seen it day in and day out, 1:14:38.800 --> 1:14:41.640 even in response to the past two failures, that you know, 1:14:42.200 --> 1:14:43.680 we're going to make this thing happen. And we're going 1:14:43.760 --> 1:14:45.639 to make make cole Rain a better place. 1:14:46.000 --> 1:14:47.320 I don't know if either one of us will be 1:14:47.320 --> 1:14:50.320 around then, but in you know, five ten years, as 1:14:50.360 --> 1:14:54.280 just saying extend your stistics expires, how do you how 1:14:54.320 --> 1:14:55.680 do you sell it at that point? And it'll be 1:14:55.840 --> 1:15:00.240 entirely different political feel I'm sure too, but you know 1:15:00.120 --> 1:15:01.360 you learn from the first two. 1:15:01.400 --> 1:15:02.400 How do you not do this again? 1:15:03.880 --> 1:15:04.080 Yeah? 1:15:04.520 --> 1:15:07.360 So the nice part is at that point it would 1:15:07.360 --> 1:15:09.439 be a renewal levy in five years, right, So that's 1:15:09.439 --> 1:15:13.720 a little bit of a different conversation and increase. And 1:15:14.040 --> 1:15:16.639 beyond that, we'll be looking hard at our track record 1:15:16.680 --> 1:15:18.679 over the past five years and being able to point 1:15:18.720 --> 1:15:22.240 to the results improving what we did with those dollars 1:15:22.280 --> 1:15:25.200 that the public can trust it to us to do 1:15:25.280 --> 1:15:27.439 what we're promising here, which is to make Colrain in 1:15:27.479 --> 1:15:28.160 a safer place. 1:15:29.040 --> 1:15:32.240 Yeah, because you said, you know, certainly it's not a 1:15:32.280 --> 1:15:35.160 hotbed for crime, but we're starting to see things happen 1:15:35.200 --> 1:15:37.439 in Chlorine that we haven't seen in years past, and 1:15:37.439 --> 1:15:39.760 I think that concerns long time residents there, especially as 1:15:39.800 --> 1:15:41.479 you get older, you're worry about public safety a lot 1:15:41.520 --> 1:15:44.559 more than if you're younger, just because you're more risk averse. 1:15:44.880 --> 1:15:48.120 That fits about right on the west side there in Chlorine. 1:15:49.760 --> 1:15:51.000 Yeah, and crime. 1:15:50.760 --> 1:15:54.559 Changes between crime change over the decades, and it'll continue 1:15:54.600 --> 1:15:56.840 to change and evolve, and that's you know, part of 1:15:56.840 --> 1:15:58.479 our mission is to make sure that we're changing and 1:15:58.520 --> 1:16:01.240 evolving with it, we're responding in the best way. 1:16:01.280 --> 1:16:03.759 What's the biggest evolution you've seen over the past decade. 1:16:03.800 --> 1:16:08.120 Let's say, when it comes to crime, it's. 1:16:07.840 --> 1:16:11.360 Different these days. I'd say that there's been a lot 1:16:11.360 --> 1:16:15.560 of more property crimes we've seen in Coal Rain, and 1:16:16.160 --> 1:16:19.080 that's natural when you've got a very busy retail corridor. 1:16:20.840 --> 1:16:22.519 You know, some of the crimes that we've seen with 1:16:22.640 --> 1:16:28.040 things like the fake calls for school incidents, so that's 1:16:28.080 --> 1:16:30.080 certainly been surprising, and those that youat up a lot 1:16:30.080 --> 1:16:33.479 of resources and so, you know, figuring out how we 1:16:33.479 --> 1:16:35.320 can better address things like that, it's going to be 1:16:35.360 --> 1:16:36.680 one of the challenges that we're going to have. 1:16:36.880 --> 1:16:38.800 As an aside, it seems like I haven't heard as 1:16:38.840 --> 1:16:41.439 many of those these days. Are we starting to figure 1:16:41.479 --> 1:16:43.679 out and separate in the fact from fiction? 1:16:45.320 --> 1:16:47.120 No, I mean, we take every call that we get 1:16:47.200 --> 1:16:50.800 sure serious as possible right, because if you don't, then 1:16:51.680 --> 1:16:52.200 you don't want that. 1:16:52.280 --> 1:16:53.560 It seems like I'm just saying it seems like the 1:16:53.600 --> 1:16:55.639 slotting thing. For a while, man, it was going on. 1:16:55.720 --> 1:16:57.439 It was like once a week, twice a week in 1:16:57.479 --> 1:16:59.439 some cases. And we haven't heard one of those instances 1:16:59.479 --> 1:17:01.120 in a while, or are we just not reporting on 1:17:01.200 --> 1:17:03.879 it because it's become commonplace it's not news anymore. 1:17:04.720 --> 1:17:08.679 Well, I mean, whether it's swatting, bomb threats, those types 1:17:08.720 --> 1:17:11.760 of things, right, there have been those incidents. I think 1:17:11.840 --> 1:17:15.080 it's just what's going on in the community that day 1:17:15.200 --> 1:17:16.800 is so what gets the headlines. 1:17:16.479 --> 1:17:16.840 Right, Yeah? 1:17:16.920 --> 1:17:20.439 Yeah, Well, sadly it's a tremendous waste of resources, right 1:17:20.479 --> 1:17:22.960 because you do have to respond if it's really suspect 1:17:22.960 --> 1:17:25.080 it's not, and that ties up a whole They just 1:17:25.120 --> 1:17:27.599 cost more money than money you don't have. Unfortunately, you've 1:17:27.600 --> 1:17:30.760 got some breathing room now to add seven more officers 1:17:30.960 --> 1:17:33.839 and create an additional patrol bead and see more traffic 1:17:33.920 --> 1:17:37.160 enforcement out there. Give residents who voted for this a 1:17:37.240 --> 1:17:39.360 sense that like, hey, this is my tax dollars at work. 1:17:39.439 --> 1:17:43.000 I'm reluctant to pay more in taxes, but I realize 1:17:43.040 --> 1:17:45.800 that we have to fund the basic services lest we 1:17:45.840 --> 1:17:48.599 fall into disrepair. And once you do that, it doesn't 1:17:48.640 --> 1:17:50.880 become attractive and owner of property values fall and it's 1:17:50.920 --> 1:17:53.840 not good for the community. So third times a charm 1:17:53.840 --> 1:17:56.960 in Cole Rain. He is Jeff Weckbach, administrator there in 1:17:56.960 --> 1:17:59.920 Cole Rain Township. Congratulations on the big, big win last night. 1:18:00.560 --> 1:18:03.599 Yeah, well, thank gott. I mean my expectation is this 1:18:03.640 --> 1:18:06.000 is a big win for the community. So we're going 1:18:06.040 --> 1:18:08.400 to put these dollars to work and we're going to 1:18:08.439 --> 1:18:09.400 make this place a better place. 1:18:09.479 --> 1:18:11.000 Yeah, I appreciate it. Be well, take care. 1:18:11.320 --> 1:18:11.400 Ye. 1:18:11.880 --> 1:18:14.479 It feels as more as politics might get out of control, 1:18:14.560 --> 1:18:17.400 and you know, we send someone to DC or Columbus 1:18:17.560 --> 1:18:20.439 or our local school board maybe and you feel like, wow, 1:18:20.479 --> 1:18:21.800 this is not the person, This is not what I 1:18:21.880 --> 1:18:23.880 voted for. A lot of people have that sense right now, 1:18:24.880 --> 1:18:27.880 and which is why you're seeing a kind of a 1:18:27.920 --> 1:18:30.679 mini repudiation of Trump to some degree, but largely because 1:18:30.680 --> 1:18:33.519 of the economy. And the main issue is your pocketbook. 1:18:33.520 --> 1:18:36.080 It's always been that way. Pocketbook is very very important, 1:18:36.400 --> 1:18:38.160 and if you feel like you're doing worse than you 1:18:38.200 --> 1:18:40.040 were a year ago, you're going to take it out 1:18:40.080 --> 1:18:43.519 on the incumbents and we're seeing that across the country today. 1:18:43.520 --> 1:18:46.840 That may change another year next elections, like who knows, 1:18:47.760 --> 1:18:50.479 But at least in this here, I can control that 1:18:50.600 --> 1:18:53.519 kind of money. I can control my police department. I 1:18:53.520 --> 1:18:55.920 don't want to see what's happening in Cincinnati happening here. 1:18:56.040 --> 1:18:57.920 And I understand the values of those who live in 1:18:58.000 --> 1:19:02.040 urban Cincinnati much different than that live in westside Coleraine Township. 1:19:02.080 --> 1:19:04.880 But people see that and go, don't. I don't want 1:19:04.880 --> 1:19:06.800 that coming here, And I think that's why people just 1:19:06.880 --> 1:19:09.639 kind of bit the bullet and voted for this thing. 1:19:10.479 --> 1:19:10.640 You know. 1:19:10.760 --> 1:19:13.200 Conversely, you know there's a lot of school of these 1:19:13.240 --> 1:19:15.559 passed as well. I look at what happened to Lakota 1:19:16.160 --> 1:19:17.559 kind of in my neck of the woods there, and 1:19:17.600 --> 1:19:21.880 that doesn't surprise me, because, man, half a billion dollar 1:19:22.000 --> 1:19:25.880 ask is a big, big ask. That's a lot of money. 1:19:26.640 --> 1:19:29.599 And I understand that it's been kind of misreported that 1:19:29.600 --> 1:19:31.640 these some of these buildings that they just build in 1:19:31.680 --> 1:19:32.920 the nineties have to come down. 1:19:32.960 --> 1:19:33.519 That's not true. 1:19:33.560 --> 1:19:37.040 There's some I guess, some annexation that's happening and improvements 1:19:37.040 --> 1:19:38.759 that were made in the nineties, but These are buildings 1:19:38.760 --> 1:19:41.040 that go back, you know, fifty to seventy years, So 1:19:41.600 --> 1:19:44.000 it's not like they're knocking over new buildings that were 1:19:44.040 --> 1:19:46.599 just built, you know, twenty years ago, thirty years ago, 1:19:47.240 --> 1:19:50.120 which is still pretty old, and building new ones now. 1:19:50.160 --> 1:19:54.040 These are way past their way past their expiration date. 1:19:54.080 --> 1:19:55.760 And yeah, when you let it go like that and 1:19:55.800 --> 1:19:58.200 don't vote for the levee, it's just going to continue. 1:19:58.240 --> 1:20:00.920 Next one will be even bigger because they want to 1:20:00.920 --> 1:20:02.760 fix it all and won't fell swoop. I think that 1:20:02.800 --> 1:20:05.080 also sends a message to I mean, look at CPS. 1:20:05.080 --> 1:20:08.120 Their levey issue passed and passed quite handily as well, 1:20:08.800 --> 1:20:11.360 because you know, despite what we think of CPS, they 1:20:11.479 --> 1:20:14.840 made some inroads here, maybe not to our liking in particular. 1:20:15.120 --> 1:20:16.719 And if you live in an area where the school 1:20:16.760 --> 1:20:18.519 district you probably look, you down your nose at it. 1:20:19.040 --> 1:20:21.320 Not all the schools and CPS are trash by far. 1:20:21.360 --> 1:20:23.920 There's a lot of good schools to produce good results. 1:20:24.160 --> 1:20:27.200 Biggest issue you have in the city of Cincinnati more 1:20:27.240 --> 1:20:30.160 so than in the suburbs. In fact, his attendance. I 1:20:30.160 --> 1:20:31.880 don't know how you control that. If you're the school, 1:20:31.920 --> 1:20:33.800 you can't force the kid to go to school. We 1:20:33.880 --> 1:20:35.760 know you have to go to school, but it's not 1:20:35.800 --> 1:20:38.040 like the teachers and administrators can show up at somebody's 1:20:38.040 --> 1:20:40.880 house and drag them kicking and screaming to school. That's 1:20:40.920 --> 1:20:43.719 a huge issue there. It certainly is an interesting election 1:20:43.760 --> 1:20:45.719 to follow. Will continue know Cunningham will take over twelve 1:20:45.800 --> 1:20:47.400 or sixty day. I will point out the fact that 1:20:47.439 --> 1:20:51.519 all the candidates that Willy endorsed failed, So yeah, we 1:20:51.560 --> 1:20:56.439 have another elections local election cycle. He did back Trump 1:20:56.479 --> 1:20:58.639 and Trump once, so I'll give him. Okay, I got 1:20:58.640 --> 1:21:02.679 that one, but local politician. I got Willy's endorsement. How's 1:21:02.720 --> 1:21:06.240 that working out for you? He's like the Bengals of politics. 1:21:06.680 --> 1:21:08.320 Scott Sloan seven hundred w W. 1:21:15.200 --> 1:21:15.720 Yelling at me. 1:21:19.000 --> 1:21:30.800 Your drums are blown out. 1:21:20.960 --> 1:21:21.040 But. 1:21:25.840 --> 1:21:28.439 I love there with me.

Okay, it's 1:25:40.160 --> 1:25:41.560 a lot of people watching. 1:25:41.600 --> 1:25:41.880 I don't know. 1:25:41.920 --> 1:25:43.720 If that's like, you know, top one hundred. 1:25:43.600 --> 1:25:44.800 I would say that's pretty good. 1:25:44.880 --> 1:25:49.840 More people tuned into that than NBA. Joe Burrow is 1:25:49.880 --> 1:25:52.960 alive and well, I guess I'm assuming he was at 1:25:52.960 --> 1:25:56.080 the Bengals Halloween party on Monday night. The dude never 1:25:56.200 --> 1:25:59.040 posts on social media, so as soon as he posts, 1:25:59.320 --> 1:26:03.360 Bengals fans go crazy. So go to Joe Burrow's Instagram 1:26:03.479 --> 1:26:05.840 and read the comments on his latest post, because they 1:26:05.880 --> 1:26:10.080 do not disappoint. He dressed up as the Joker and 1:26:10.160 --> 1:26:13.760 the caption says, I did my own makeup and he 1:26:13.800 --> 1:26:15.960 had a carousel of like four or five different picks. 1:26:16.000 --> 1:26:17.720 But it's it's the comments that you got to read. 1:26:17.800 --> 1:26:19.120 Really, how good was a makeup? 1:26:19.560 --> 1:26:22.720 He did a pretty good job Joker.

So I 1:34:29.680 --> 1:34:31.840 don't know, do we miss him? 1:34:32.080 --> 1:34:32.320 Who? 1:34:33.479 --> 1:34:33.719 Right? 1:34:34.840 --> 1:34:36.920 I mean, would the record be any different right now 1:34:36.960 --> 1:34:39.599 with Joe Burrow? It's not like Joe Blacko's not getting 1:34:39.600 --> 1:34:41.759 it done. I would say forty two thirty eight points 1:34:41.760 --> 1:34:42.479 are pretty good. 1:34:42.600 --> 1:34:45.479 The problem is you got a you know, the player 1:34:45.560 --> 1:34:48.080 personnel guy slash GM. Whatever he does, he doesn't have 1:34:48.120 --> 1:34:50.160 the autonomy to make moves. It's like they're not going 1:34:50.240 --> 1:34:50.879 to do anything. 1:34:51.040 --> 1:34:51.599 Fire Duke. 1:34:52.000 --> 1:34:54.080 What are you going to fire Duke and bring another person? 1:34:54.160 --> 1:34:55.040 I like, I don't know. 1:34:55.080 --> 1:34:57.040 The attitude's got to change, Like you know what, just 1:34:57.080 --> 1:35:01.960 because our grandfather, yeah, funded the league, basically, it doesn't 1:35:01.960 --> 1:35:04.479 make us football geniuses. Yeah, we've got to get people 1:35:04.520 --> 1:35:07.240 in Harris. So we've got to spend money on scouting, 1:35:07.240 --> 1:35:09.000 we have to spend money on player personnel. We got 1:35:09.000 --> 1:35:11.400 to spend money on the whole process of getting more 1:35:11.479 --> 1:35:13.720 quality players in here. And then the Actually, I think 1:35:13.720 --> 1:35:16.799 it's all some degree of coaching because you know, guys 1:35:16.920 --> 1:35:19.679 like now cam Sample for example, play fine in college 1:35:20.240 --> 1:35:21.640 and then he get here and they can't tackle all 1:35:21.640 --> 1:35:22.800 of a sudden, I like, I don't get that. 1:35:23.280 --> 1:35:26.639 Well, Zach Taylor is speaking very highly of his guy 1:35:26.680 --> 1:35:28.760 out Golden. He says he's a great coach, he's got 1:35:28.800 --> 1:35:31.680 a great staff, and he's done great things and he 1:35:32.200 --> 1:35:36.439 believes in them. This is Zach Taylor's words. So Out 1:35:36.520 --> 1:35:39.439 ain't going anywhere. So do you think he's going somewhere 1:35:39.479 --> 1:35:39.720 He's not. 1:35:40.160 --> 1:35:42.280 Yeah, it's I don't think it's I don't think it's 1:35:42.560 --> 1:35:43.200 I really don't. 1:35:43.280 --> 1:35:43.360 No. 1:35:44.240 --> 1:35:45.760 I think it's al. I think it's way up the 1:35:45.760 --> 1:35:46.439 food chain there. 1:35:46.560 --> 1:35:48.360 And I do think that there is a problem. 1:35:48.400 --> 1:35:50.800 There is some toxicity in that locker room too, which 1:35:50.840 --> 1:35:52.439 is said, I don't think there's a whole lot of 1:35:52.520 --> 1:35:56.160 leadership going on, especially since Zach has been calling the 1:35:56.160 --> 1:35:59.040 guys out like hey, just looking for someone to step up? 1:35:59.040 --> 1:36:00.000 Who's going to step up? 1:36:00.040 --> 1:36:01.920 He seems like there's some drama, say you got the 1:36:02.000 --> 1:36:04.360 you know, it's not about the best players, it's about 1:36:04.360 --> 1:36:04.719 the right. 1:36:04.640 --> 1:36:05.720 Players, right. 1:36:06.200 --> 1:36:08.519 And I think even with Jamar Chase talking about, you know, 1:36:08.600 --> 1:36:11.960 kind of slipping into that leadership role. Uh, with Joe 1:36:11.960 --> 1:36:13.960 Burrow being out, I think he's struggling now too. 1:36:13.960 --> 1:36:16.280 And we saw him kind of not melt down, but. 1:36:16.600 --> 1:36:19.839 Obviously very frustrated after that loss to the Bears on Sunday. 1:36:19.920 --> 1:36:22.559 So they've got to buy this weekend. Then it doesn't 1:36:22.600 --> 1:36:24.880 get any easier than that. They have to face the 1:36:24.920 --> 1:36:28.080 Steelers in Pittsburgh. They're going to end the month with 1:36:28.160 --> 1:36:28.960 the Ravens, and. 1:36:28.920 --> 1:36:31.080 The Bills didn't wind up getting any people, So I 1:36:31.080 --> 1:36:34.479 think they lost the bye technically. Still, Sarah least in 1:36:34.520 --> 1:36:37.240 My morning on Keith Crust Show, it's a again the 1:36:37.320 --> 1:36:38.240 snort report here. 1:36:38.439 --> 1:36:39.879 Not many snorts when your team. 1:36:39.720 --> 1:36:42.759 Sucks, there's nothing really to laugh about. 1:36:42.960 --> 1:36:44.840 Willy is on the way next, he's going to explain 1:36:44.880 --> 1:36:47.600 why A the candidates he back lost once again. This 1:36:47.680 --> 1:36:51.320 is true seven hundred The Bengals of Politics, Bill cunning 1:36:51.880 --> 1:36:54.719 Bill Cunningham. Next, maybe he'll blame Al Golden seven hundred. 1:36:54.720 --> 1:36:55.800 Don't get other Cincinnati
