1
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: It seems like I was just here just a couple

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: hours ago, because I was Holy trap back together again.

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,120
Speaker 1: Russ Jackson's chrapped out, Dan Carroll's checked out, Danny Leeson

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: is in producing. Sean Gallagher was in news. Not sure

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: when he tags out. My guess, if I had to,

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,920
Speaker 1: like wager, would probably be after ten. We'll see who

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: checks in in as we continue to dig out of

8
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: Fern's Wrath, a wicked winter storm that they have upgraded

9
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: by the way the number of people apparently affected by

10
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: this ongoing event. Although most of the snow is in

11
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: and there's still wicked cold and serious wind issues from

12
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: time to time, they're now saying about two hundred and

13
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,959
Speaker 1: forty million Americans have been affected by this storm as

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 1: it continues to move up to the northeast and so

15
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: on. On the line, once again checking in with I'm now

16
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,639
Speaker 1: coined the term snow Queen. I don't know if it's

17
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: been service mark trademarked. I don't know if I'm allowed

18
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: to use it. I don't know if Kathleen's gonna appreciate it.

19
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: But O Dodd, Cincinnati's Wonder of Wonders. Kathleen Fuller is

20
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: with me back on seven hundred WLW starling. How are you,

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: Kathleen is? Can I can I call you snow queen?

22
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: I heard you start laughing. I'm like, I hope that's

23
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: not a bad thing.

24
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I feel like I should be singing.

25
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 3: Do you want to build a snow ma'am?

26
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: You know, I feel like that.

27
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: Would be huge. That right, there's Instagram stuff. Absolutely, that'd

28
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: be hilarious. Do like a little doing snow angels and stuff. Oh,

29
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: it'd be great.

30
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so yeah, I've never been called that. I

31
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 3: have been called quite a few things, never snow queen,

32
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:27,559
Speaker 3: and that's okay.

33
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: I'm good with that one.

34
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: Well, that's excellent. You are ours, and you've been very kind.

35
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I know what's your job at all, but

36
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: I mean you've been very good about allowing us into

37
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: your world and your time. How is O DOT doing?

38
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: It has been hours and hours and hours of literally,

39
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: you know, in excess of one hundred hundred and fifty

40
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: plus drivers and people loading these trucks, getting them filled,

41
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: pushing that snow out of the way, and continuing onward

42
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: and forward until everything is I guess scrape clean. Correct.

43
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure that the cruise are on right now.

44
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: You never been its tired, but they're to keep going.

45
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: You know, now that the snow has moved out, how

46
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 3: well maybe we can make a little bit of progress tonight.

47
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: I want to be very very cautious when I.

48
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: Talk about this, and you know, remind everybody we still

49
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 3: have a long way to go. But I know they're

50
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 3: making some good progress on the interstate. If you can

51
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 3: start to see some pavement, be mindful that it's going

52
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 3: to be slick pavement under there because they're blasting it

53
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 3: with you know, they're putting down that liquid calcium chloride're

54
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 3: blasting with the de icers, and they're putting some salt

55
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 3: down to try and get us some lanes opened up.

56
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 3: But you know we're going to see some slick pavement

57
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 3: and possibly some freezebacks. They'll be out all night trying

58
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 3: to watch monitor them flow. But be very careful if

59
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 3: you're out.

60
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: Talking to Kathleen Fuller from modat Stirling seven hundred WLW

61
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: so over the next couple of days, we know a

62
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: lot of kids going to be out of school tomorrow

63
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: possibly Tuesday. Wicked cold is coming. As you try to

64
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: get this snow off off the roadways and everything else

65
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: and people clear parking lots, et cetera, sidewalks, whatever. The

66
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: refreeze is a major issue, especially as cold as it's

67
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: going to get, even though it has been extremely cold

68
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: for quite a.

69
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 3: While now, right so, you know, if they do get

70
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 3: the you know, anytime they can get some pavement showing

71
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: and we get a little bit of clearing going on,

72
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 3: and it's because they're using all these materials. You know,

73
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 3: we still have very very cold air temperatures, and you know,

74
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 3: we need it to be a little bit warmer for

75
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 3: those for the pavement to actually dry out and not

76
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 3: have the freeze backs and everything. So tonight it's going

77
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: to be dangerously cold, and that's something that the drivers

78
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 3: who are going to be working to continue plowing, they're

79
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 3: going to be mindful of that may will be careful

80
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: because they know that the lethal de icers and all

81
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 3: the salts won't really work to melt anything, so then

82
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 3: they just have to keep being They'll just be very

83
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: careful during the overnight to just keep plowing and hopefully

84
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: any areas that are clear, they'll be able to kind

85
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 3: of get those dried out soon, very soon. But there's

86
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 3: gonna be a lot of still snow covered roadways come

87
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:48,839
Speaker 3: tomorrow morning too.

88
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean right now, I don't see look at

89
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: a high temperature tomorrow nineteen, low of five twenty four

90
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, close to thirty on Wednesday, that'll almost feel

91
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: like shorts weather. I mean really, yeah, we'll be ready

92
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: for a beach vacation with that, won't we. Absolutely that

93
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: would be fantastic.

94
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: But the yeah, there's serious serious issues tomorrow morning going

95
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 3: into this. You know, if you're driving on a road

96
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 3: that has snow and ice on it and it's compacted

97
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 3: to it, and you feel like that really rough surface

98
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 3: under you, you know that's that's might be frozen to

99
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 3: the pavement come tomorrow morning and could stay there for

100
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,359
Speaker 3: a little while. It's harder to get that off, and

101
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 3: they'll they'll be working on it. But I guess be

102
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 3: some snow covered roads come tomorrow morning.

103
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: Absolutely, So do you have I'm just kind of curious

104
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: because I know we've talked numerous times and I'm easily confused.

105
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: So you have an excess of like one hundred and

106
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: fifty plus trucks out there, and are some of these

107
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: tag teams or are they just single individual drivers on

108
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 1: their own and they're you know, doing the work and

109
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: then taking those breaks occasionally in the midst of long

110
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: hours of this or sort of like a tag team

111
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: situation as a team or no.

112
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 3: So we work on twelve hour shifts, and so every

113
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: county garage you know, is staffed separately and it has

114
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: a dedicated number of trucks and drivers to work so

115
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 3: that you know what group A will come in and

116
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 3: you know, like we had Group A coming in and

117
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 3: I say, A, I'm just using that generically, you know,

118
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 3: starting at noon on Saturday, working till midnight, and then

119
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 3: the second group of people come in. And we have

120
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 3: you know, in addition to our full time workforce, we

121
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 3: do have seasonals, and we also have auxiliary workers who

122
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 3: you know work at our district office perhaps, but they

123
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 3: also carry a CDL license and so they can kind

124
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: of backfill. So we try to keep every truck out

125
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: on the roadway. We did have some trucks go down today,

126
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 3: you know, they're back in the garage just being repaired.

127
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 3: So we may not have that, you know, one forty

128
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 3: three is our district number. We may not always have

129
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty three out all the time, but

130
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: we try, and you know, they are working at wherever

131
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 3: they're their assigned route is. So each driver has an

132
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 3: assigned route, and when you see the you know, we've

133
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 3: talked a lot about the the tandem driving, you know,

134
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 3: and the tandem plowing that they do on the interstates.

135
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 3: You know, that's something that's just going to happen on

136
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 3: the interstates. You won't be seeing that on like through

137
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 3: two lane routes. But you know, like I said, we're

138
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 3: trying to hit every single route and leaving nothing untouched.

139
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 3: The only exception we have is State Route three fifty

140
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,799
Speaker 3: at Fort Anchin and Warren County that is closed because

141
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: then that's the standard when we get into a massive situation,

142
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 3: a massive snowstorm like this or I because it is

143
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 3: difficult to navigate.

144
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: Even when you're in just a passenger.

145
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 3: Vehicle and good you know, good weather days, it's kind

146
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 3: of hard.

147
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,359
Speaker 2: To go over those curves and.

148
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 3: Those hills, so we don't take the cloud trucks up

149
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 3: and over those, but you know it's open on each end.

150
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 3: You just can't get through the fort ancient areas. So

151
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 3: you know, for the people that are out that way

152
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 3: and they're familiar with the road. I'm sure they're fully

153
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 3: aware that it's been closed since Gosh, it was closed

154
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: during the overnight hours last night.

155
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 4: So sure.

156
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,799
Speaker 1: Kathleen Fuller, by the way from Modut Cincinnati was sterling

157
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: on the Big One. So this is always the thing

158
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: that's sort of interesting to me. And I had somebody

159
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: message me earlier, how could there be that many lane miles? Well,

160
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: and it's in the name. When you say lane miles,

161
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: that means each lane is a part of that mileage

162
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 1: that you're accumulating that you have to clear. Correct.

163
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, So you take a mile and you multiply it

164
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: by the number of lanes, so you know, if you

165
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 3: have a ten mile stretch on a two lane route,

166
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: that's twenty lane miles, gotcha. And so you do that

167
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 3: for the interstates and everything else. So that's how we

168
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 3: have about forty seven hundred of them in District.

169
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: Eight, gotcha. And that is a lot. Any idea of

170
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: how much of the ice melt product of whatever type

171
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: it is that you guys have gone through to this point,

172
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: that's always an astounding thing to me. Get these trucks

173
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: loaded up and they hit it hard, and I know

174
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: part of that helps them push the snow out of

175
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: the way, just by the nature of the weight of it,

176
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: even though it's a pretty heavy truck.

177
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 3: Otherwise, Yes, yeah, I don't have the numbers with me

178
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 3: right now. Probably have that sometime tomorrow, will be able

179
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: to well, when we get completely out of the storm

180
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 3: and we get completely out of clearing, then of course

181
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 3: we'll know the totals, should have a better idea tomorrow

182
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: of what we've done this weekend so far, because you know,

183
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: it's kind of you know, our computer system will catch

184
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 3: everything up. They'll be you know, when they load up,

185
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 3: they put those those numbers in the system, and then

186
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 3: they get back out on the road. So I don't know,

187
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 3: but I know we've used a lot. Of course, keep

188
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 3: in mind, you know, we weren't going to be using

189
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 3: a lot during when we were at the height of

190
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: the snow because that would have been just pointless and waste,

191
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 3: wasting materials. But now tonight, you know, they'll start using

192
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: those again, probably cut back a little bit when it

193
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 3: gets really really cold because the salt will be down.

194
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: You know what's funny about that, It's fourteen cathlet you're

195
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: when it gets really really cold, So when I guess

196
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: the single digits are like enough, we can hold off

197
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: on the melt for a moment. Let's just push it

198
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: out of the way.

199
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 3: I mean, the material the materials are working right now,

200
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 3: but you know when it gets below ten, they're not

201
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 3: going to work so that the materials will already be

202
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 3: down because that's what they're doing now, is they're pushing snow.

203
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 3: Like I said, I've seen some and this is something

204
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 3: else I want to tell everybody. You know, you're going

205
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 3: to see some areas. I'm looking on our cameras and

206
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 3: you know, I see it's of pavement showing through and

207
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 3: it's really nice. And I see pitting some seventy one

208
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 3: seventy five, and I was like, oh, there are some

209
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 3: areas where we've got a little bit of clear pavement.

210
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 3: But don't let that fool you, because you know, half

211
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 3: a mile away it might be a snow covered because

212
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 3: that just hasn't been able to come off.

213
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 2: The roadway yet because it is frozen.

214
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 3: So keep that in mind. Those conditions are going to change,

215
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 3: whether you're on the interstate or of you know, on

216
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 3: twenty two in you know, Warren in Clinton County, or

217
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 3: you're out you know, somewhere in Butner County. Those conditions

218
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 3: are going to change from mile to mile, minute to minute,

219
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 3: location location, you.

220
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: Know what's wild. Kathleen Fuller from Oda, Cincinnati was stirling

221
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: on the big one looking out our windows here and

222
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: you can sort of see you across Montgomery Road down

223
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: in up seventy one, a bit over towards Kenwood Town Center,

224
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 1: depending where you are in this big building. And I

225
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: was so excited earlier, like you just said, I was like, oh, look,

226
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: I can see seventy one, like actually see it in

227
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: between Carson. I was like that means maybe I can

228
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: go home. It was like, yeah, I don't know. We'll see.

229
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: I may have to be here tomorrow too, we'll find out.

230
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's we're getting things to the point

231
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 3: where it's a little bit better, but it's still it's

232
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 3: not going to be clear, and I don't want to

233
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 3: need you know, we talk about managing expectations. I want

234
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 3: everyone to have the expectation you get up tomorrow morning

235
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 3: there's still gonna be a lot of snow on the roadways.

236
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 3: And that's just you know the matter of the storm

237
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 3: and the mother and nature, and that's we're gonna blame fern,

238
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 3: and we're gonna blame other nature.

239
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 2: We're not gonna blame the snow queen for this.

240
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: No, no, you did not do it, that is for sure.

241
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: I am still taken back at the idea, whether it

242
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: was the Weather Channel or whoever else. I was talking

243
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: to a catchmark earlier from Channel nine. She was saying

244
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: that she thought it was like the Weather Channel or

245
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: something that comes up with some of these names for

246
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: these storms and not them personally. Obviously, because I was, like,

247
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: I asked her immediately. I wasn't being mean. I was

248
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: just like, fern, really, ferns like a grandma named ferns,

249
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: like a plant, like we talked on earlier. I'm like,

250
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: how is this how you describe a brutal storm, you know,

251
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: affecting you know better part at more than half of

252
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: the population of the country, shutting it down, you know,

253
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: thousands of flights and people stranded and everything else. Fern

254
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: Fern doesn't sound like someone or something that would be

255
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: a probably, Oh look at that pretty plant. Fern's very nice.

256
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: She had us over, we had a cup of tea

257
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: and some crumpets or something. You know, I don't know,

258
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: I would, you.

259
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 3: Know, I would like that too, if I, you know,

260
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 3: had a you know, grandma named Fern and would vite

261
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 3: be over for that?

262
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 2: Sounds pretty good.

263
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: That's what I was thinking too. Yeah, exactly right, not

264
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: like causing a wreaking havoc and everything else on the

265
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: roadways and so on. But that's just the way it goes.

266
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: Just reminding people also, and this affects everyone. I mean,

267
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: if you're out there trying to shovel your walk with snowblower, otherwise,

268
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: pace yourself, try to be just be careful. I talked

269
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: to my mom earlier, at least paying text. I was

270
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 1: very concerned. She said she was out with the dog

271
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: or hers and took a fall in the backyard on

272
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: a pathway, and then she was like it's worse than

273
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: I thought it was. And I'm like, you had a fall,

274
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: don't glimp, you know, don't just blow by that. How

275
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: are you? And she's like, well, probably, okay, So I'm

276
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: like probably, it's not a good answer.

277
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know your limitations. I'm not happy with my

278
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 3: mother who went out and bought a shovel on Friday,

279
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 3: thinking that she's going to go out and shovel for driveway.

280
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 2: Now she's eighty six years old. She doesn't need to

281
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: be doing.

282
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: That, That's what I'm saying. She just got healed up

283
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: with an ankle or a leg or a foot or something.

284
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: It was what last year that had problems.

285
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, so you know, no, no, you're don't.

286
00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 2: Be you know, be smart.

287
00:11:59,600 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 4: There you go.

288
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 1: That's her calling too. I heard the phone drop out.

289
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,319
Speaker 1: She's like, are you talking bad about me on the

290
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: big one again? So tell mom, I said hello, And

291
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: I hope she's okay, and not to show that.

292
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, and she I'm sure she's listening tonight. She listens

293
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 3: to you all the time. And so there she heard.

294
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 2: It from you too.

295
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 3: Don't shovel.

296
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: That's right, And I wish my mom would have listened.

297
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: So hopefully yours does all right? Anything else before we

298
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: let you bounce into the night, and of course you'll

299
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: be all over everything in the next couple of days,

300
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: probably as this continues to progress with getting closer to

301
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: whatever normal is here in the Tri State after a snowstorm,

302
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm guessing, is that correct, right?

303
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 3: So our crews are going to continue working. They're going

304
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 3: to do the best they can. Again, don't expect to

305
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 3: see clear black pavement come tomorrow morning, there's still going

306
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 3: to be snow on the ground, snow going to be

307
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 3: snow on the roads. But if you are out, please

308
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 3: be careful check you know, check our cameras at og

309
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 3: dot com. You can get some road conditions there, and

310
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 3: ye know, be mindful of you know that your crews

311
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 3: are going to still be out and we want everyone

312
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 3: to be safe to get to their destinations. But if

313
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 3: you don't have to go anywhere, try to avoid travel.

314
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 3: And as far as my mother and shoveling her driveway,

315
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 3: I'm not a bad daughter.

316
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: I will my brother and I will.

317
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 3: Make sure that she's taking care of somebody in the

318
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 3: family will take care of her or will take some

319
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 3: kid to do it. We're not going to let her

320
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 3: do it.

321
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, I wasn't thinking that. I was not blaming

322
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: or attacking you. But it's good that you're doing what

323
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: you do. And that goes back to Lance, mycallister I

324
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: was talking to earlier because I've had a bunch of

325
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: people on today from people calling and then people that

326
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: we know, and he was saying that he's only had

327
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: in like twenty five twenty six years he and his

328
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: family lived where they are one kid has come to

329
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 1: look to shovel snow, and that was just a while

330
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 1: back when it was a little snow. And he told

331
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: the kid to come back any time when it was

332
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: and he'd be glad to have him do the working.

333
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: And he hasn't seen him. So that's what happened to

334
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: all the kids who do the snow removal from the

335
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 1: streets or the sycamores. I should say that's how I

336
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: make minds of money as a kid.

337
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't want to leave the listeners thinking

338
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 3: I'm a bad daughter. No, my mother's kids will take

339
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 3: care of her, but we'll make sure she's in good shape.

340
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 2: We're not gonna love her do.

341
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 1: Any that's correct. The snow Queen takes care of mom.

342
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: Kathleen Fuller from ODAD, Cincinnati. Thanks for doing what you

343
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,199
Speaker 1: do in making time and best of mom in the family.

344
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: Fuller as well. Take care of yourself and we'll talk again,

345
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: so we'll see you later, right, have a great night

346
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: you too. It was nicer her to give us some

347
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: time again tonight. And I coined a new name, the

348
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: snow Queen. I don't know if that'll stick or not.

349
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that fits better than Fern

350
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: the storm. I mean, maybe it's just me. I don't know.

351
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: Five point three seven four nine eight hundred, the big one.

352
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: I wan't to know how you're doing if you're out

353
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: and about. I know a lot of people still looking

354
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: to I've seen a bunch of trucks pushing snow, pickups

355
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: or otherwise out of a lot of the businesses up

356
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: and down Montgomery Road, in and around here, clean parking

357
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: lots and strip shopping centers, obviously Kenwood Town Center. And

358
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: I got to say that is maybe the today was

359
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: the only time that I can recall, other than literally

360
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: like Christmas Day, that the I've seen Kenwood Town Center's

361
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: mall parking lot like empty, other than like trucks pushing

362
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: snow around. So we'll see what tomorrow brings with that.

363
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: But that's pretty wild, you know, one of the other

364
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: things that is always fun. And I tried this the

365
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: other night and it didn't work. I think I used

366
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 1: water that was too warm. And I've seen a bunch

367
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 1: of this stuff on social media and everything else. A

368
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: lot of people doing different things, you know, trying to,

369
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: I guess, experiment as safely as they can with the

370
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: wicked cold weather and so forth. The water you can

371
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: throw up and you can see it sort of vaporize

372
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: and freeze. I've done that in the past. I'll try

373
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: with cold water. Maybe tomorrow night might be better. And

374
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: there was a video that somebody had and it's a

375
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: great idea, and I thought about it. I still might

376
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: do it. We'll see. They boiled some noodles. I'm assuming

377
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: they let them cool down first, they took them outside.

378
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: They put them on a plate on the deck or

379
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: the patio or whatever it was, and then you see

380
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: them sort of lift up the noodles with a fork

381
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: and just held it there long enough in the wicked

382
00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: cold to where they it froze literally in the like.

383
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: There was an invisible person holding the fork with the

384
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: pasta sort of up off the plate, which I thought,

385
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: for some reason, I just enjoyed that immensely. So anything

386
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: out doing in the snow or otherwise, of how you're doing,

387
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: if you're working, I know a lot of people out there,

388
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: you know, trying to find food or whatever. We heard Kroger.

389
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: Some of those, if not all of those, I think

390
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: in the tri State closing, I think probably doing some

391
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: restock and trying to get stuff in order and then

392
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: opening up again tomorrow. A lot of other people who

393
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: have been out there working gas stations, a lot of

394
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: first responders. Obviously, people are getting people, you know, sort

395
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: of towed up out of wreckers, out of either off

396
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: the side of the road or wherever they can't get

397
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: out of. So I mean, you know, we're all just

398
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: trying to get through this together. After nine o'clock conversation

399
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: out with Jay Ratliffe or aviation expert of the Big One,

400
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: we'll get a dirt on a travel in and out

401
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati and how it looks around the country, and

402
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: just the nuts and bolts of how that whole I

403
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: guess process works effectively to keep it up and running

404
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 1: and get people going where they need to. And we'll

405
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: also talk to our way before Willy goes live across

406
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: the nation on your Sunday night, about nine thirty five,

407
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: we'll talk to Willy. He has come through. I don't

408
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: know if he's on his own or if he's got

409
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: like a whole team of people to bring him out.

410
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 1: Always very concerned, but we'll talk to our WILLI in

411
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: about an hour or so from now, and then on

412
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: the other side we'll open up phones and to give

413
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: you a chance to sound off, and a lot of

414
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 1: other ground to cover as well. On a Sunday night

415
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: Sterling double dip split shift, a lot of people are

416
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 1: stuck on the job or people couldn't either get out

00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: of the work situation or get to work. So we're

Speaker 1: no longer falling from the sky. It's not leaving the

422
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: ground anytime soon, unless you're pushing it out of the way,

423
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: blowing it out of the way, or I mean, I

424
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 1: don't know, you shut your eyes and you don't see

425
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,200

00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: about nine thirty five. J Ratliffe talking aviation, travel and

430
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 1: so forth. He's a big ones aviation expert guru guy.

431
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: A conversation with him I had coming up after nine o'clock.

432
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 1: Let me just say a couple of things. There's a

433
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: bunch of schools closed and a lot of businesses closed

434
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 1: tomorrow seven hundred w wellw dot com. You can get

435
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 1: a bunch of information there about everything all the time

436
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: for that matter, even streaming shows or whatever else. Get

437
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:36,640
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app and so on. This is pretty wild

438
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 1: in that there's now been an upgrade to what we're

439
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: looking at here. Oh, let me give you the with

440
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 1: so down to seven tonight. As I understand, tomorrow high

441
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 1: of all of nineteen degrees is going to be the

442
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: high twenty four Tuesday, twenty nine Wednesday, we may not

443
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: see above freezing until it's sort of like the end

444
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: of the week. So this is not going to melt

445
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,959
Speaker 1: anytime soon. So just just be aware of that and

446
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: hopefully they'll get cleared up and plowed and everything in

447
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: a timely fashion. It's always tough in a city like

448
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: Cincinnati because of height, old neighborhood type streets and the

449
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 1: way the city has sort of been designed and come

450
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: together over generations and generations and cars on the street,

451
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,959
Speaker 1: narrow streets, et cetera. I know they got a lot

452
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: of new equipment, they tried to make improvements during the

453
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 1: season on how it has come together. And the way

454
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: they've attacked the snow over this last couple of weeks

455
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: to month, whatever it's been since we got that big

456
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: pounding some time ago, but nothing like this. And people

457
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: message me from Dayton, They're like, hey, Dayton kid. I'm like, yes,

458
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: I was, And you know you were around for the

459
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: blizzard of seventy eight. Yes I was. There's more snow

460
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: and date now than there wasn't true as I understand it.

461
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 1: I think they had where's my notes, thirteen thirteen or

462
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: fourteen inches of snow, which is more than they got

463
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 1: during the blizzard in the one fall, but thankfully not

464
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 1: the wind and the brutal stuff that came along with that. Though.

465
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: Fourteen degrees now in the tri stage or sever your

466
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: weather station seven hundred w WELW fourteen's pretty cold. I

467
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: don't I'm not making light of it. I know that

468
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 1: if you're out there and a little bit, you can

469
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,400
Speaker 1: kind of get acclimated to it and whatever else, especially

470
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: if you're a moving snow around or whatever trying to

471
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: get around out there. You're hot and sweaty, but then

472
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: gets you in all kinds of trouble, not really understanding

473
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: how you're doing or what have you. So anybody who's

474
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: thinking about getting out there early in the morning or

475
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: maybe at night, even trying to do any moving of snow,

476
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 1: well even if it's with a snow blower, just pay

477
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: attention to how you're feeling and what's going on, and

478
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: maybe hopefully a phone in your pocket and somebody who's

479
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: maybe hopefully paying attention to you. Just in case things

480
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: go sideways, they can be there for you to help out.

481
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just sort of the hope a lot

482
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: of football. Earlier, Patriots beat the Broncos, which may not

483
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 1: have been a big surprise if their Nick's was sort

484
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: of taken out with that leg injury or foot injury

485
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: whatever it was, broke a week ago. Patriots now going

486
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 1: to their twelfth Super Bowl, which is just unbelievable. And

487
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: Rams have scored and comeback. Now they're trailing by Ford's

488
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 1: twenty four to twenty in Seattle, the Seahawks leading the Rams.

489
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: And I'm not just rooting for the Seahawks because Russ

490
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: Jackson is a Seahawks fan who was producing and here

491
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 1: earlier before Danny Chuck back in like I did due

492
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: doing the split. But for some reason, I don't know

493
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: what it is. It's just one of those things. I've

494
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: just always liked the Seahawks. I'm born and bred and

495
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: raised a Seahawks fan, but just I don't know if

496
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 1: maybe it's because they were horrible for a while and

497
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 1: I like that underdog thing. I don't know. It's the

498
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 1: same thing with Tampa Bay. They were horrible, seemingly for

499
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: my entire youth, and I was like, they're gonna be

500
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: good one day and I love those uniforms, and then

501
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: they got good for a while. So we'll see. Maybe

502
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: a Seahawks can keep gone and get to the Super

503
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: Bowl bound, which would make a whole lot of people

504
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: in the Northwest and a lot of other places quite happy.

505
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: But they're just over nine and a half minutes left

506
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, so there's a lot of football

507
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 1: to be played, and we'll keep you on top of it.

508
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: So there is that that's gone on. Holy crap, I

509
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: got a long list of stuff I want to get to.

510
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: No trash pick up tomorrow from Rumki. There's a number

511
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: of reasons for that, obviously, sometimes people get really hacked

512
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: off about it. I had a conversation with my neighbor

513
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, and was mad because we

514
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: had all taken our cans, rolled them out to the

515
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: curb and you know, sort of threw the snow on

516
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: top of the snow whatever else, and how you handle

517
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: your cans for them to pick them up, And we

518
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: were joking. I said, they'll probably get them a day late,

519
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 1: but I'd rather have it out there than rather than

520
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: miss them, just in case. And he was just furious.

521
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 1: I can't believe. I don't like the trash can sit

522
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: out for an extended period of time. Looks like crap.

523
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, there's snow all over the place. What's

524
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 1: the big deal. He rolled his cans back in the

525
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: whole streets covered with you know, there's snow, and everybody

526
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: had put their cans out. He rolls them back in

527
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: back towards the garage, in the garage wherever he puts them,

528
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: and then rolled them back out the next morning, And

529
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: as I was leaving and they were moving through, he

530
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: barely got him out for them to get him a

531
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: day later. And that's all it is, So no roumky. Tomorrow,

532
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: they'll hit it a day late and get through it,

533
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: and hopefully those neighborhoods and the streets will get cleared

534
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 1: in the next couple of days and they'll just push

535
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: through it. Like the rest of It's just sort of

536
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 1: the way it goes. But it can be a frustrating

537
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: kind of circumstance. That is for sure, a whole lot

538
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 1: of people around the country stranded by weather, either off

539
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: of the highway, finding hotels or what have you, or

540
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 1: in many cases traveling by air which we'll talk to

541
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: Jay Ratliffe conversation with him about to all that, or

542
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 1: aviation expert coming up after nine and just navigating it.

543
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: Because if it's weather related, as I understand it, the

544
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: airline's not really required to give you anything because it's

545
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: an act of God. But if it's mechanical or something

546
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: along those lines that affect your flight getting from one

547
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: place to another, they haven't handled getting an aircraft or

548
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: pilot staffing where they need to be. Is this stuff

549
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: gets starting to move again, that's a different circumstance, and

550
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: Jai'll clear that up. And of course the aviation block

551
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: at seven hundred WLW was always available too, but it's

552
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: just one of those things you can't really control the

553
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: snow and know what I'm wondering, is this if you

554
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: were going to be stranded someplace and have to deal

555
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: with and navigate bad weather situation, being snowed in or otherwise,

556
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: in all things being equal, I'm not a big fan

557
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 1: of the cold in the snow, and I am an

558
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: Ohio kid, so I understand the reality of it. And

559
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: Danny Leason's the same way. It's like, I don't like it,

560
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: but this is home and I've lived in the desert

561
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: where it's warm. And they made fun of me, which

562
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: as I was complaining about the cold in Las Vegas

563
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 1: some years ago before I came back to Ohio. It's

564
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 1: been over ten years now, twelve or something like that,

565
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: and they joking, I'm from the cold in Ohio and

566
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: fly over country wherever that is, and they joked it

567
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: was like, Iowa, Ohio, wherever you're from. I'm like, yeah, yeah,

568
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: it's true. My blood thinned out pretty fast, but it's

569
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: just the way it goes. But if I was going

570
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,239
Speaker 1: to be stranded someplace snow, this is not really the

571
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 1: worst place. I mean, being stranded at home is a

572
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: good idea if you're going to be stranded somewhere else

573
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 1: or stuck, you know, working is not necessarily a bad thing,

574
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 1: because at least you're making money if in fact you're

575
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: stuck someplace having you navigate this and then you just

576
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: hope that your co workers can get in to relieve

577
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: you at some point. But I've seen a few people

578
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: at front counters and checkouts, you know, in the front

579
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: desk or whatever else that have had the same look.

580
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: I've been here really a whole lot. I got a

581
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,959
Speaker 1: lot of time here. Nobody's coming to relieve me. What

582
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: can I do to help you? And I'm like, I'm

583
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,199
Speaker 1: really sorry. We're all living the stream too. It's fantastic,

584
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 1: best days of our lives. I suppose eight to twelve inches.

585
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 1: I guess it's snow in Boston, Albany's somewhere. Five to

586
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: eight inches, that's New York Portland Main twelve to eighteen inches.

587
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: That is huge. And flight cancelations from flight aware dot

588
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 1: com are unbelievable. Over nine hundred and Newark nine hundred

589
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: and sixty, New York, Charlotte over eleven hundred cancelations, Dallas

590
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 1: Fourth Worth delays close to five hundred, Chicago almost nine hundred.

591
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: And I do believe that's so hair I could be wrong.

592
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: Atlanta close to four hundred and sixty, and on it goes,

593
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: and Dallas has been dealt with two As far as

594
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: that goes, nearly five hundred delays, cancel flights somewhere close

595
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 1: to twelve hundred. And that's a lot of people either

596
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: not getting on planes trying to go where they want

597
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: to go or get home to where they need to

598
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 1: be and so forth. And a lot of those aircraft

599
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 1: then being positioned in places where they're out of harms

600
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: way so they can get this stuff working again too,

601
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: a lot of layers to it. This is where maybe

602
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: some artificial intelligence would work, where artificial intelligence could maybe

603
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 1: help us sort of navigate it. So I'd be interested

604
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 1: to see how that technology has been implemented by the airlines,

605
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: by the National Weather Service and all that. I mean,

606
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: all use some AI in some fashion, even if it's

607
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: just on your phone or your watch, whether you realize

608
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: it or not, that's the reality of the situation. But

609
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 1: it's it's just one of those things. You just hope

610
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,959
Speaker 1: that they get it all worked out and we can

611
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: get where we have to go sooner than later. Some

612
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: people making a lot of dough right now, you know,

613
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: people pushing snow Yeah, they're doing it a lot of

614
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: overtime hours emergency rooms. My guess is there'll be some

615
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: orthopedic doctors, surgeons and so forth are going to be

616
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,479
Speaker 1: very busy in the next couple of days to weeks.

617
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: As people get out there, they slip, they fall, they

618
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 1: over exert themselves trying to push snow out of the way,

619
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: and then the next thing you know, you know, they

620
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: get a wrist or an elbow, or a knee or

621
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: a hip problem, and then they're getting tuned up and

622
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: fixed up by some medical professional someplace. Who's going I

623
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 1: could buy a summer house now. So just be careful

624
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: if you're out there, even just not you know, in

625
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: the outside in the lot sort of walking around earlier

626
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: checking stuff out. I thought I had as I was

627
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: trudging through the snow missing, I couldn't quite figure out

628
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: where the curb was and caught half the curb and

629
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 1: then fell and a guy's clearing her the lot and

630
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: he's driving with his truck. It was the funniest thing

631
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: because I was laughing as I fell, and I'm getting

632
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: up and he's laughing as he's pushing the snow and

633
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: dropping the blade down. He kind of looked at me

634
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 1: and laughed. I nod him like, yeah, I'm good.

635
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 4: I'm good.

636
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, we all do it, and it's true,

637
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: you just do. And the older you get, the more

638
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 1: you feel those falls. It's a pretty serious thing. They've

639
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: downgraded for what it's worth, the snow emergencies at this point,

640
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: and I think this is last updated. That's the most

641
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: recent that I can see. So we've gone from like

642
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: level three, level three effective six tonight, Hamilton County level two. Also,

643
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: that's Butler County, Claremont County Level two, Level two for

644
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: Brown County they switched early this morning. Highland County also

645
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: at a level three. In Kentucky you got boone and

646
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: Canton at level two, and Campbell County and Grant level

647
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: two and three respectfully. In Indiana you got Deerborn County.

648
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 1: I got a red travel advisory I think is what

649
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: that is. That may be still in effect Union County,

650
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: Orange travel advisory, and Ohio County or red travel advisory too.

651
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: So we'll see how this all comes together here sooner

652
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: than later. And if you don't have to be out clearly,

653
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: don't go. I mean, it's just one of those simple things.

654
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: But when I was younger, it was like, can we

655
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: get to Taco Bell? Can we can we get out?

656
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: As a teenager, I mean, it was just we got

657
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: to break out of the house. That's enough with the family.

658
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: I got to get out, and you know, you get out,

659
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: and you'd hope that when you were a kid or

660
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: you know whatever, you'd be like, maybe we'll just go

661
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: to the movies, We'll go to the mall, anything, just

662
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: to get out and maybe do donnats in a parking

663
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: lot or something like that. And I had a text

664
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: here my buddy's back and forth. Today we're pinging back

665
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: and forth, joking around and making fun about what we

666
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: did when we were teenagers and one of my friends

667
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: jacked up the car. We were messing around in a

668
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: parking lot. I can't remember which mall it was, and

669
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: you know, just donuts, having a blast, and somebody distracted

670
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: the guy, the kid driving because we were kids at

671
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 1: the time, and like stepped on the gas is that

672
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: we spun around. We hit the curb and it jacked

673
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: up both sides or both wheels on. It was the

674
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 1: passenger side of the vehicle that hit that curb, and

675
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: my buddy's dad was none too satisfied with the excuse

676
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: or the explanation. And I can't remember what it costs,

677
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: but it was a It was not a cheap accident.

678
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: It was not and so you know, sometimes stupid will

679
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: cost you. But it was fun until that happened. And

680
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: I'm grown now and I still like, you know, going

681
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: into a parking lot as long as I can see

682
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: that there's no light poles, everything safe. I'm not trying

683
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: to spend money. I don't need to spend, but to go,

684
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 1: you know, have a little fun. Yeah, there's nothing wrong

685
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: with that. And a whole lot of sledding. Where is it.

686
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think. When I was living in East

687
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: Walnut Hills it was And I even did this a

688
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: girlfriend at the time, and I went over Eaton Park

689
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: and down some of those slopes, those hills there. I mean,

690
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: it's a great place to sled There are a lot

691
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: of really fun incredible I mean, we got a lot

692
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: of hills in and around the Try State. There's a

693
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: lot of places to do a lot of sledding. So

694
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: my guess is the next couple of days there'll be

695
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 1: that too, So just avoid the trees and don't do

696
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: also what my buddies and I used to do as kids,

697
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: and you may and if you have kids, tell them

698
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 1: not to do this. And it was fun, but it

699
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: was clearly irresponsible and incredibly dangerous. And what we would do.

700
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: My cousins really started me on it. It would like

701
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: you grab a bumper, you pull a bumper and then

702
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: let somebody as you would sort of navigate the snow

703
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: and the ice with your your boots or whatever, fly

704
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: slide along with the vehicle and then let go of

705
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: that and then you could slide on your own. But

706
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: that's a good way to end up in the emergency

707
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: room or maybe in a bag, which nobody really wants.

708
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 1: So I hope I didn't give anybody the idea to

709
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 1: do that, But that is another one of those dumb

710
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: ass ideas that kids do and sometimes will have an

711
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: incredibly bad outcome. But thankfully for my friends, my cousins

712
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: and I, it was just good times. And then I

713
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: can remember I think I got I was grounded or

714
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 1: as my mom called it, restricted in that situation when

715
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: she found out what we were doing, and she was

716
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: she was like, you can't go back over though, those

717
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: kids are stupid and your cousins are bad influence, and

718
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: I was like, no, it was great times, mom, it

719
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: was great, and she wanted none of that at all whatsoever.

720
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: So either way, a lot of people maybe homeworking remotely kids.

721
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: You know. That's the other thing they have that as

722
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: a kid I did not have growing up, is the

723
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: remote learning possibility. So you only have so many real

724
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: legit snow days. But here's the other part of it.

725
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: If you're a I mean, you don't have a lot

726
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: of time to be a kid in life. It seems

727
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 1: like it takes forever when you're growing up, but you

728
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: realize in a blink of an eye you're thirty forty

729
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: year old person, and all that time when you were

730
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 1: a kid was really fast. So you know, you kind

731
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: of think about that in the amount of time and

732
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: it starts to sort of weigh on you. Is it

733
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: sort of spreads and you're kind of like, man, this

734
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: is a thing forever. You can't get out and so on.

735
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: But we'll see a couple of days off and how

736
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: that sort of plays out and how that comes together.

737
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: It'll be all right. But I mean, as a kid,

738
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: it just school day would be a time to play.

739
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: As a grown up. You know, you got remote work

740
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: and everything else. You would hope that a lot of

741
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: these kids have a chance tomorrow, maybe Tuesday, to go

742
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: goof off and not have to be you know, married

743
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: to and somehow in front of a computer screen. You know,

744
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: I mean, is that so wrong in that thought process?

745
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: I know everybody's kids need to learn the future's coming fast.

746
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: AI's coming to get us. They need to get on

747
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: the computer. They need to get it. Let them be

748
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,080
Speaker 1: kids tomorrow. Let them be kids tomorrow and Tuesday. If

749
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: they've got Tuesday off. Hopefully they don't force them into

750
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 1: a situation where they're too I mean, just why not

751
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: have a little fun, enjoy a snow day. That's what

752
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: they're for. You know. Maybe it's just me five one, three, seven, four, nine,

753
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: eight hundred, the Big One talk Back, the iHeartRadio app

754
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: and also on X Twitter, whatever you want to call it.

755
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 1: It's been X for long enough, but people still call

756
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: it Twitter at Sterling Radio. You can find me there.

757
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: That's a pretty serious thing. Will take a break, we'll

758
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 1: come back. Sean Gallagher will have your nine o'clock reports

767
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 1: it's through CVG or elsewhere, because that there are a

768
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: lot of moving pieces that go into that. You know,

769
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: we think it's a lot with our family and our job,

770
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: and then the airport is you know, having to navigate

771
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: in and out of the airport, in and out and

772
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 1: off the tarmac and on the runways and everything else

773
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:19,720
Speaker 1: that they get with it. There's a lot of people

774
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: doing a lot of work, often thankless, but we appreciate

775
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 1: all of you and first responders and people out there

776
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: doing And hopefully I can find some cinnamon donuts in

777
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: the morning. Somebody is gonna hopefully be making some donuts

778
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: for me tomorrow. It's all I'm saying. And Danny Gleeson too.

779
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: We can enjoy a donut and some coffee on an

780
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 1: early Monday morning. Maybe with Tom Brenneman. He'll get you

781
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: up your nine o'clock report straight away. We'll talk travel

782
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 1: with Jay Ratliffe. Willie joins me at nine thirty five

783
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: before your Sunday Night with Willie. It's sterling here on

784
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 1: the Nation Station, your severe weather station, home of the

785
00:35:51,480 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: Red seven hundred WLW Cincinnati. Jay Rat is a seven

786
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: hundred WLW aviation expert kind enough to give us some

787
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 1: time on this Sunday checking in again. This is a

788
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: monumental storm.

789
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 4: Jay.

790
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: We talked about all the aircraft and moving around the

791
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,479
Speaker 1: country and trying to figure out how to move those

792
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: resources once this stuff gets cleaned up. How big of

793
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: a problem has this been for cancelations and moving aircraft around.

794
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 4: It's been huge. Derling.

795
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,439
Speaker 5: In fact, when you were talking, I was thinking about

796
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 5: the Ferns. I thought, you know, wonder if these sports

797
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 5: teams have that named the Ferns. And I looked it

798
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 5: up that you got to go to New Zealand. There's

799
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 5: some women's sports teams that are called the Ferns. But

800
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,479
Speaker 5: this has definitely got some teeth to it. We're seeing

801
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 5: it because when you look at just the top four

802
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 5: airlines today, as far as what's going on with them.

803
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 5: American Airlines has canceled forty seven percent of their flights,

804
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 5: thirteen percent more are delayed. Delta's canceled four percent of

805
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 5: their flights also with eleven percent delayed, Southwestern United thirty

806
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 5: three and thirty six percent canceled ten percent on each

807
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 5: that are delayed. Comes out to nearly seven thousand flights

808
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 5: that are impacted just from those four carriers. And if

809
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,839
Speaker 5: you average one hundred and fifty people a flight, that's

810
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 5: more than a million passengers right there. So when you

811
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 5: have a million people that are impacted today just from

812
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 5: those four airlines and you have to try to get

813
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 5: those individuals to their destinations when you can, it's easy

814
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 5: to see that this is going to be something that's

815
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 5: going to.

816
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 4: Be a multi day event.

817
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 5: I've been asked several times about how long is it

818
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 5: going to take for us to get back as far

819
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 5: as normal, and I'm thinking Tuesday and Wednesday from a

820
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 5: flight operation, and probably at least that long to get some.

821
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 4: Passengers to their destination.

822
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,760
Speaker 5: Because when you're talking about a lot of the airlines

823
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 5: that offer maybe three flights a day on a Monday, Wednesday,

824
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 5: Friday to a specific destination. What's going to take place is, well,

825
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 5: if the Monday flight's canceled, then it's going to be

826
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 5: on Wednesday and Friday that they can try to get

827
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 5: passengers to those impacted destinations.

828
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 4: And it's just a mess.

829
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 5: I mean, when we're looking at the airports, Atlanta's canceled

830
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 5: half of their flights today, Charlotte eighty three percent of

831
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:12,280
Speaker 5: the flights into Charlotte's canceled, Dallas forty eight percent, Kennedy

832
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 5: nearly eighty percent. So you're talking about something that is

833
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 5: gripping the nation from in essence, Texas all the way

834
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 5: towards the Northeast when we're seeing some significant, significant delays

835
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 5: and cancelations by some of the biggest airlines. So obviously

836
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 5: that's creating all kinds of problems right now and passengers

837
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 5: that are trying to figure out, you know, the best

838
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 5: way to adapt when you're trying to get somewhere now.

839
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 5: One thing I tell people constantly when they're trying to travel.

840
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 5: Let's see from hereitting down to Florida and perhaps your

841
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 5: flight Orlando has been canceled. One thing that you can

842
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 5: do for the airline to try to help out the agent.

843
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 4: Is to tell them, look, get us to Daytona.

844
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 5: Beach, Tampa, Saint Pete, get us to a nearby airport,

845
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 5: and we will rent a car and drive at our

846
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 5: own expense to get us to our destination. Because when

847
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 5: you can give an agent four or five destinations, it's

848
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 5: going to work to your advantage. I remember Sarry and

849
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 5: I were coming back from Europe and we got to

850
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 5: Kennedy and we had nothing but weather, and I told

851
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 5: the American Airlines agent, get me to any airport in

852
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 5: the state of Ohio and we will drive home. And

853
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 5: they were able finally at midnight to get us the

854
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 5: last few seats getting into Columbus and we drove home

855
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 5: from there. So you know, these weather events, it can

856
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 5: be challenging and it's going to require a lot of

857
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 5: patience for everybody from the airlines to obviously the passengers

858
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 5: that are impacted.

859
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: Talking to seven hundred WLW aviation expert Jay Ratliffe on

860
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: a very snowy Sunday, so you know what happens to

861
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: these million people if they're not at home, then there

862
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,799
Speaker 1: are and obviously a lot of hotel rooms that are

863
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: being booked, and there is a difference between and we've

864
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: talked about this time and time again Jay Weather. Compared

865
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: to mechanical issues or airline ups as far as moving

866
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: equipment when there's not a storm, there is a difference

867
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,320
Speaker 1: in what they're required to and they're clearly probably unless

868
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,439
Speaker 1: you've made friends with somebody gonna come off the cash

869
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: to get you a room or food if they don't

870
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 1: have to correct.

871
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 5: Well, unless you're like one of their top top top

872
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 5: top top frequent flyers, which you know most of us

873
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 5: are not, that's exactly the case. What's going to happen is,

874
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 5: you know, if your flight at noon is canceled, they're

875
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 5: going to be saying, Okay, the next flight going to

876
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 5: that city is going to be at six o'clock tonight.

877
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 5: We think it's full. We can put you on the standby,

878
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 5: but there's forty four people already on it. So you're

879
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 5: talking about, okay, forty four people don't have to show

880
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 5: up before I'm going to get a chance to maybe

881
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 5: get on that flight. So you know, they might say,

882
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,879
Speaker 5: we can't confirm you until Tuesday morning or tomorrow night,

883
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 5: and what do you do? You stick around the airport.

884
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 5: Some people are going to camp out for twenty four

885
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 5: hours at the airport that they're at until they can

886
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 5: get out, just just because perhaps the nearest hotel is

887
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 5: an hour and a half from the airport, and the

888
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 5: thought is, well, why spend three hours round trip in

889
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 5: bad weather trying to.

890
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 4: Get to a hotel.

891
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 5: We'll stay here so that if something does change at

892
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 5: the last minute, I'm at the airport and I can

893
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 5: step up and say here I am, take me and

894
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 5: off you go, type of thing, which is really the

895
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 5: best best thing to do. And it's it's a situation

896
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 5: right now where it's just it's really difficult for airline

897
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 5: agents and because what they're trying to do is to

898
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 5: get everybody out as much as they can. And look,

899
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 5: if you've got a flight that's departing and you've got

900
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 5: three empty seats, okay, you got you know, nine hundred

901
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,359
Speaker 5: and eighty five people in the gate area, You've got

902
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 5: a specific, you know, approach that you have to try

903
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 5: to see about getting people on those planes. It just

904
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,240
Speaker 5: takes a while to get everybody to where they.

905
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 4: Need to be.

906
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 5: Now, the good news is that this is January, which

907
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 5: is typically a lighter travel period, and that's going to

908
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 5: help out a little bit. Had this happened last month

909
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 5: at this time during the Christmas travel al. Good Lord,

910
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 5: it would be it would be just nuts. But this

911
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 5: is a little bit better because we're not dealing with

912
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 5: quite the volume of passengers, but that doesn't mean it's

913
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 5: not challenging both for passengers and for airlines. And as

914
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 5: quickly as the storm moves through, we'll see airlines in

915
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:01,359
Speaker 5: Texas like Dallas and Houston snap back into pull operations.

916
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 5: We're going to see other smaller airports like Omaha and

917
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 5: Little Rock start their operations back because they're all but

918
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:08,839
Speaker 5: closed down at this point in time.

919
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 4: So as the.

920
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 5: Storm moves through, the airlines will very quickly where zoom

921
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 5: operations as quickly as they can and then try to

922
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 5: find the crowd as much as they can to get

923
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 5: all the impacted passengers to what is ultimately going to be,

924
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 5: you know, their final destinations.

925
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 1: Jay Ratlis, the seven hundred WLW aviation expert with Sterling

926
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLUB. We talked also about the it's sort

927
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 1: of its own little world at an airport and CVG

928
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 1: of course, big facility in what was a massive hub

929
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: at one point, at least compared to it's got a

930
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 1: lot of flights now. But the hub helped with the

931
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: way they built that out and the way it's operated

932
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: really helps in these type of situations more than a

933
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 1: lot of other places, doesn't.

934
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 4: It Well, it does.

935
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 5: But you know, now we've got more local traffic than

936
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 5: we've ever had before coming to CBG, And that's evidence

937
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 5: because the fact that we have so many low cost

938
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 5: carriers are going to so many different destinations.

939
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 4: In addition to seeing.

940
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 5: Airlines like American Delta United to increase their presence, you

941
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 5: have airlines like British Airways coming in giving us their

942
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 5: flights to Europe. You've got Air Canada coming in giving

943
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 5: us lights to the West Coast. So yeah, the airport

944
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 5: continues to grow, and it's kind of a model of

945
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 5: what other airlines airports would love to see from the

946
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 5: standpoint of emerging from a hub with prices that were

947
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 5: extremely high. Now all of a sudden, you've got a

948
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 5: bunch of low cost carriers that the community of supporting,

949
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,360
Speaker 5: and you've got a lot of options in addition to

950
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 5: really low fares, which is the perfect combination.

951
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 4: Now.

952
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,359
Speaker 5: The beauty of it is now is with all those

953
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 5: different destinations to all those various cities, if you're impacted.

954
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 5: It makes it easier to try to get you to

955
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,760
Speaker 5: your destination. And that goes back to that previous point

956
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 5: of try to help the airline agent out as much

957
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,399
Speaker 5: as you possibly can by telling them if there's another

958
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 5: airport that you might be able to get to. Now,

959
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,839
Speaker 5: keep in mind, if they send you to a Daytona beach,

960
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 5: you're going to Orlando, you're on your own. You've got

961
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 5: to find a way to get yourself from that other

962
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 5: airport to where you're going. And the other thing you

963
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 5: got to be careful of is that let's say you're

964
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 5: in the middle of your itinerary and you say, look,

965
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 5: I'm just going to drive to my next city. I

966
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 5: won't take the flight. I'll just drive to Atlanta and

967
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 5: I'll catch the flight from there. The problem is if

968
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 5: you don't communicate that to the airline sternly, what happens

969
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 5: is they have used a no show for your Cincinnati

970
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 5: flight the connection right, they cancel everything after that. So

971
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 5: if that's the middle part of it, it's in other words,

972
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 5: if your return is still on there, it's gone. So

973
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 5: you have to make sure you communicate with the airline

974
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 5: to let them know what you're doing because look, if

975
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 5: you if you want to drive from one city to another, okay,

976
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 5: that's fine, you won't Probably you're not gonna be get

977
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 5: any sort of refund, just say I'm gonna pick up

978
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 5: the flight there. And during times of irregular operations, airlines

979
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 5: do a pretty good job of working with us. But

980
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 5: you've got to make sure you communicate what those changes

981
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 5: are going to be because if you don't, you could

982
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 5: really be a problem because now you've got all this

983
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 5: massive people that are trying to get where they're going.

984
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 5: You pop into the airport for your you know, planned

985
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:01,839
Speaker 5: return trail that you've had book for a while for

986
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 5: them to say, I'm sorry that flight's been canceled, and

987
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 5: they're gonna say, well, who canceled it? Well you did

988
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 5: when you didn't show up for your Cincinnati flight. Well

989
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 5: that's when the problem is. And simply by just not

990
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 5: knowing what needs to happen is what takes place. And

991
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 5: I've also been asked a lot from a lot of people,

992
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 5: j if I'm at the airport and I don't have

993
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 5: an aircraft at my gate, is there any way to

994
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 5: track it coming in? Flight aware dot com is a

995
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 5: great site I use all the time as we do

996
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 5: at the airport, and you can put in your flight

997
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 5: number at flight aware dot com and it'll show you

998
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 5: the outbound departure, the time, all the stuff there. But

999
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 5: it also is a link in the corner that says

1000
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 5: track inbound flight and you just click on it and

1001
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 5: it'll show you where your airplane's at in relation to

1002
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 5: where you're at, and you can actually track the inbound

1003
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 5: aircraft that's going to make the outbound segment for what

1004
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 5: you're going.

1005
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,319
Speaker 4: To be traveling. I've seen gate agents using it.

1006
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 5: It's a free app, and it really kind of alleviates

1007
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 5: the need of asking a lot of needless questions when

1008
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 5: you can find out from yourself in real time where

1009
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 5: your aircraft happens to be.

1010
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: I got to say, I don't know how much such

1011
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 1: of a geek this makes me. And as a kid,

1012
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,280
Speaker 1: it was a teenager, it was fun. With my buddies.

1013
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,359
Speaker 1: We go to the airport sometimes and you could drive

1014
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 1: pretty close up and you know, sort of see the

1015
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 1: flights takeoff and land, which was, I don't know, awesome. Obviously,

1016
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: security is a little different in getting close now. Weather

1017
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: is a part of this.

1018
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 6: Two J.

1019
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 1: Ratless seven hundred WLW aviation expert was Stirling on the

1020
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,319
Speaker 1: big one. The other thing that was interesting, and we've

1021
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 1: discussed this before too as much as I said, you know,

1022
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 1: you drive up seventy one or seventy five or seventy four,

1023
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 1: whatever it is with O Dott and you see the

1024
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 1: gang plow and all those plows together going to work

1025
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: at the airport CBG and around the country. It is

1026
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: amazing to see the heavy equipment doing the work it does,

1027
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 1: trying to move all that snow out of the way

1028
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 1: to keep those flights moving. It is spectacular to watch.

1029
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 5: It would make a great real time TV show because

1030
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 5: when you see all that goes on behind the scenes

1031
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,839
Speaker 5: to keep something as big as a runway clear, you

1032
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 5: have you're constantly checking the breaking conditions to see, you know,

1033
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 5: if everything is as it needs to be for the

1034
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:06,800
Speaker 5: crews coming in. That information is constantly communicated from pilots

1035
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 5: to pilot. You have everything from the weather that's being monitored,

1036
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,360
Speaker 5: the ground equipment, all of it. I mean, it's a

1037
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 5: city we've talked about and a lot of times we

1038
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,759
Speaker 5: just kind of take that for granted. You get to

1039
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 5: an airport, it doesn't do it quite as well. As

1040
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 5: CBG and then all of a sudden you're like, wait,

1041
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 5: what's going on here? Because many times it's not a

1042
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:27,840
Speaker 5: matter of them just not having their act together, but

1043
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 5: sometimes the communication breaks down and or the weather has

1044
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 5: a sudden change, and then all of a sudden it

1045
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,919
Speaker 5: you know, we can't use that runway because the winds

1046
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 5: have changed. Now we've got to use another one, but

1047
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 5: it's not clear. We've got to have time to get

1048
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 5: that runway clear, and it can create a backlog, which means, okay,

1049
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:45,240
Speaker 5: we've got a de ice an airplane.

1050
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:46,399
Speaker 4: It's been holding too long.

1051
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 5: Now we need to go back and get another glyc

1052
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 5: hall treatment because there's a hold over time. Once you're

1053
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 5: everything's been done, you can only depart an x amount

1054
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 5: of minutes, and if it exceeds that, you're right back

1055
00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 5: to getting de iced, which is us airing on the

1056
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 5: side of caution. So you don't ever, ever ever want

1057
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 5: to get upset because there's a de icing delay, because

1058
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 5: that's a safety related issue, and if you have to

1059
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 5: be delayed because of that, then that's that's a good thing,

1060
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 5: even though a lot of times people don't look at

1061
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 5: it that way, because you know, keeping the contaminants off

1062
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 5: the wing is what keeps the plane in the sky

1063
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:20,440
Speaker 5: of flying.

1064
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,919
Speaker 1: Jay, I don't want to come down the hard way.

1065
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,399
Speaker 1: Clean it, get it nice and fristine.

1066
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 5: You don't think you got it all, go back and

1067
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,720
Speaker 5: do it again. I don't care because I want to get.

1068
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 4: To my destination. It's okay.

1069
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, Jay Ratless, aviation expert for the big one

1070
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: with Sterling. You know, you would know this probably better

1071
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 1: than anyone. I don't know how many miles you've accumulated

1072
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 1: over the years. My guess is a ton. And you've

1073
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 1: been to a whole lot of airports. I'm kind of

1074
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 1: curious because I have been stuck coincidentally, seemingly repeatedly in Chicago,

1075
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: which is probably pretty common for people, and from Midway

1076
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 1: and also O'Hare. Midway was just a joke as far

1077
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,680
Speaker 1: as trying to when there was no room. Is there

1078
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,200
Speaker 1: like a top five airports you can think of if

1079
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,440
Speaker 1: you've got to sack out and you're stuck at the

1080
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 1: airport where you're like, this is the place I'd like

1081
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 1: to go if I'm going to be stuck at an

1082
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 1: airport overnight.

1083
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 5: I like Cincinnati because the fact that it's it's got

1084
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,359
Speaker 5: the amenities that's there. But look, it's close to home

1085
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 5: for us, so most of us are going to go home.

1086
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,399
Speaker 5: But you know, they ranked the top airports and they

1087
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 5: put San Francisco at the top. Now I don't know

1088
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 5: I would necessarily go that way. Now, there's been a

1089
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 5: lot of airports that have been revised. They've had some

1090
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,360
Speaker 5: some renovations that have just been awesome. I've yet to

1091
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,720
Speaker 5: see some of those airports. But you know, the airport shares,

1092
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 5: for the most part, they all have the armrests, which

1093
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 5: prevents you from you know, taking three or four of

1094
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,760
Speaker 5: them and laying down across. And that's done on purpose, obviously,

1095
00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,839
Speaker 5: which makes it really really difficult. So I mean I've

1096
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,840
Speaker 5: got my favorite. I mean, i'd like, you know, I

1097
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:56,320
Speaker 5: like the Greenville Airport down the Carolina's because the parking

1098
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,239
Speaker 5: lot looks like a you know, some sort of a.

1099
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 4: Golf country club. I mean, it's just beautiful outside.

1100
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,919
Speaker 5: And you know those sites ye out Dallas, seventeen five

1101
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 5: hundred acres.

1102
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 4: I mean, it just goes forever.

1103
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 5: And yes, Chicago sometimes is known as the place where

1104
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,840
Speaker 5: on time flights go to die, but it really depends

1105
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 5: on the time of year because a lot of times

1106
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:19,279
Speaker 5: when people are flying, this is what they did back

1107
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 5: in June and July.

1108
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:21,440
Speaker 4: Hey, Jay, you're proud of me.

1109
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,319
Speaker 5: I made my reservations for January, so I booked well

1110
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:27,280
Speaker 5: in advance. And the weather we know in February is horrible,

1111
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,840
Speaker 5: so I totally avoid in Chicago and I booked my

1112
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,240
Speaker 5: trip through Dallas. Well we get to January, what happens.

1113
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:35,719
Speaker 5: Dallas has got twenty hours of freezing rain.

1114
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:36,760
Speaker 4: Chicago's okay.

1115
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 5: So you really just never know when it comes to

1116
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,239
Speaker 5: mother Nature where things are going to go. And I

1117
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 5: tell you that this is a historic storm in a

1118
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 5: lot of ways, and even though it's slowing air travel

1119
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 5: down a lot, you just really pray for everybody that's

1120
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 5: impacted because you know it's a dangerous situation where there

1121
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,800
Speaker 5: could be a loss of life. And that's the real concern.

1122
00:50:57,920 --> 00:50:59,839
Speaker 5: I mean, not only people that are traveling, but people

1123
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,720
Speaker 5: we're out trying to keep the roads clear, the line

1124
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 5: men and women that are out there keeping the power

1125
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 5: on in really cold temperatures, and all the law enforcement work,

1126
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 5: first responders. I mean, it's easy for us to forget

1127
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:12,960
Speaker 5: all the people that make things work that we take

1128
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 5: for granted, until it doesn't work, and then it's like, hey,

1129
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:19,320
Speaker 5: what's the problem, what's going on? So obviously proper perspective,

1130
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 5: at least for me, is what I've got to make

1131
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 5: sure I remember, because it's it's easy to get carried

1132
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,440
Speaker 5: away with things that we shouldn't and when you get

1133
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 5: this kind of a situation going on.

1134
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 1: Jay, this is funny. A guy named Rand, I'm assuming

1135
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,880
Speaker 1: it's a dude, says, what about SFO. You mentioned San Francisco.

1136
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 1: That place has been under construction for my whole life,

1137
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 1: and I've floated and out of there a few times.

1138
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: It literally seemed like I kid you not, it was

1139
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 1: like a stretch of like four or five trips over

1140
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 1: ten year period. I think Rand's right. I don't know

1141
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 1: about now. I haven't been in a while, but I

1142
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 1: for a better part of a decade that place was

1143
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 1: constantly under construction.

1144
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 5: Are you are you referenced? Are you saying it's like

1145
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:58,439
Speaker 5: seventy five? It's they always always has.

1146
00:51:58,360 --> 00:51:58,920
Speaker 4: Something going on?

1147
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, a lot of bitter, a lot.

1148
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 5: I've had to spend the night at the San Francisco Airport.

1149
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 5: I came in one afternoon and didn't got until the

1150
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 5: next morning, and yeah, it was fine. I mean, you know,

1151
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:12,600
Speaker 5: there wasn't anything that I was like, oh wow, I

1152
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,399
Speaker 5: need to come back and do this again sometime soon.

1153
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:17,760
Speaker 5: But you know, it wasn't bad. And you know, these days,

1154
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 5: the airlines and airports have done a really good job

1155
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 5: of trying to make the airport's very user friendly. Now again,

1156
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 5: you've got to be very careful because sometimes they have

1157
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 5: these these universal charging stations that are at airports that

1158
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,799
Speaker 5: everybody can plug in and use, and the Department of

1159
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,880
Speaker 5: Homeland Security and the FA or NTSA have been warning

1160
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 5: travelers that some people are hacking into those ye, so

1161
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 5: you need to make sure if you're charging your device

1162
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:43,280
Speaker 5: at the airport, use your.

1163
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:44,800
Speaker 4: Own power device.

1164
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 5: Don't plug into those because sometimes it's granting access to

1165
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,840
Speaker 5: people to hack into your your device.

1166
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:52,919
Speaker 4: So please, please, please.

1167
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 5: Make sure that if you're going to be spending a

1168
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,240
Speaker 5: lot of time at an airport, use your own charging device.

1169
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 5: If not, go buy one. Do not use the ones

1170
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 5: that are at the airport to pay the.

1171
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 1: Over overcharge price. You know that you get at the

1172
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 1: airport for when it makes sense.

1173
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 4: Good, zero question, my friends.

1174
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: It's what happens if you're stuck in the compound. You

1175
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 1: got to pay compound prices. It's just the wind convenience.

1176
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 1: Remember that's right. There's a Dave Hatter moment as far

1177
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 1: as the security for your devices. So that was nice.

1178
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 1: We've entered into that. Jay Ratliff, thank you for doing

1179
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 1: what you do with making time. I appreciate. It's always

1180
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:23,800
Speaker 1: a pleasure to talk to you.

1181
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 4: The sorry p.

1182
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 1: There you go, Jay Ratliffe, giving us some insights coming

1183
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: up your nine thirty report. Then our Willie's going to

1184
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,319
Speaker 1: join us before his Sunday night show talk about his

1185
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: experience out and about and Fern's wrath in and around

1186
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: the tri State getting in here to do his show.

1187
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 1: And I want to mention this because one Bob we

1188
00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 1: Air from the Grateful Dead passed away. And over the

1189
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:52,280
Speaker 1: weekend the Eagles Don Henley at the Spear in Las Vegas,

1190
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 1: that big bubble with the eye that looks all over

1191
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 1: the valley there in southern Nevada Eagles doing a show,

1192
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 1: or at least Don Henley on his own did out

1193
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 1: on the road today, saw a deadheadsticker on a Cadillac

1194
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 1: and basically dedicating that and talking about the passing of

1195
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,919
Speaker 1: Bob Weir who left too certain that is for sure,

1196
00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,439
Speaker 1: So just wanted to mention that it's excuse to play

1197
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 1: some Henley And obviously the song's been covered or whatever.

1198
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 1: But since Henley did it, why not There you go?

1199
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,319
Speaker 1: All right, dew coming up news, lots more ground to cover.

1200
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 1: It's uh, just cold. I mean, I don't know what

1201
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 1: else to say about it. It's cold. It's miserable out

1202
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,960
Speaker 1: and unless you're making money pushing snow out of the way,

1203
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: helping people in some other fashion, and maybe in dire

1204
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 1: need of some takeout food from someplace, and I wish

1205
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 1: you could tell me where I could find some food.

1206
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 1: When I'm done on the air here, it's probably best

1207
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 1: just to stay home. Listen to me sterling. Your Willie's

1208
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: coming up after your nine to thirty report right here

1209
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,440
Speaker 1: on the Home of the Rets, speaking of boys this

1210
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 1: summer and thinking of going to the desert for spring

1211
00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:58,760
Speaker 1: training and then soon opening to a great American ballpark

1212
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 1: right here, home of the Ret News Radio seven hundred

1213
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:14,840
Speaker 1: w l W, Cincinnati. Oh my, my, mid the snow

1214
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:18,160
Speaker 1: pretty much done, but it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

1215
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 1: It is a brutal evil, I say, like satanistic, like

1216
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: cold and the white deaths have been upon us. They

1217
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,440
Speaker 1: called it snowpocalypse. They called it to snow mcgeddon or

1218
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,880
Speaker 1: at least I have. Uh and the name, by the way, Fern.

1219
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:33,440
Speaker 1: I don't know who came up with this. If it

1220
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,720
Speaker 1: was a weather channel, someone someplace really needs medical intervention

1221
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 1: or some type of professional help. It was the Weather Channel.

1222
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 1: Dany Gleason says, our Willie has stepped in getting ready

1223
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:44,680
Speaker 1: for his big Sunday Night all Over Planet Earth show.

1224
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:45,840
Speaker 6: Darling, how are you?

1225
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: I'm fine, I'm trying to navigate this.

1226
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 4: Uh.

1227
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 1: We got the Seahawks and the rams on. I'm hoping

1228
00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:56,880
Speaker 1: Seattle gets to the Super Bowl. We got it all covered.

1229
00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: We do. And uh, how was your weekend?

1230
00:55:59,600 --> 00:55:59,719
Speaker 3: Bent?

1231
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 1: How how have you navigated? Have you been held up

1232
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 1: at the house at all? No, I've been out. A

1233
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 1: friend of mine has a snowblower.

1234
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,960
Speaker 7: He also has a tractor, and I spent my time

1235
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 7: clearing other people's driveways and doing my best for the

1236
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:14,840
Speaker 7: American people.

1237
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:16,439
Speaker 1: You really are the American, aren't.

1238
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 6: I'm the voice of the common man.

1239
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,320
Speaker 7: And I was out there working and doing my duties

1240
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 7: as God gave me the power and light to see

1241
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 7: that duty.

1242
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you do it because somebody has to.

1243
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 1: Let's talk about issues, starlink. What issues would you like

1244
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: to touch upon?

1245
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 6: Remember nineteen seventy seven.

1246
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:33,919
Speaker 1: Yes, now you weren't born yet. A tiny line.

1247
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 7: I had just graduated from law school, had a little baby.

1248
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,879
Speaker 7: Friends of mine said, from the Xavier baseball team, let's

1249
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 7: go down to the high river. Oh, it froze over,

1250
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,239
Speaker 7: it's froze over. Al shattle Cottie promised. That was I said,

1251
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 7: let's go down. So we did go across. Not me, No,

1252
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,960
Speaker 7: I'm thought about my wife, my little baby, and I

1253
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:54,759
Speaker 7: had three or four of my friends that I only

1254
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 7: walked across. Someone on the other side was in a

1255
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,759
Speaker 7: VW Beetle and drove across to a high river.

1256
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,560
Speaker 1: Not on a bridge. That's insane.

1257
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:03,280
Speaker 6: No bridge.

1258
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 1: And they made it across.

1259
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 7: It got about halfway and they got stuck somehow on

1260
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 7: what you know, the river. It wasn't exactly a sheet

1261
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:12,920
Speaker 7: of ice. No, there's pops and downs, yeah, yeah, And.

1262
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:14,280
Speaker 6: They had to get out and a couple of guys

1263
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:15,879
Speaker 6: help moving around. He went back.

1264
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,360
Speaker 1: There was a Volkswagen in the middle of the high

1265
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:22,880
Speaker 1: river coming across not on a bridge. Is twenty five

1266
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 1: degrees below was the temp and the wind chill was

1267
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:28,439
Speaker 1: minus fifty. Well, why why did you even go out

1268
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: in that? I wanted to live at Stirling.

1269
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:31,439
Speaker 6: I wanted to live.

1270
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: You wanted to experience.

1271
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 7: I want to I want to go out and look

1272
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 7: like in this kind of weather, I go behind my

1273
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 7: house out in the creek which is frozen, and I

1274
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 7: walk around hills and valleys.

1275
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,160
Speaker 6: I climbed trees. I want to live my life.

1276
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 1: Man, you are an American hero. You really are. I

1277
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 1: gotta say there is no question about that. You're absolutely right.

1278
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,560
Speaker 1: So of all the snow and all the time that

1279
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 1: you have been here. I remember our days in Mount Adams,

1280
00:57:54,640 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 1: and I was living in East Walnut Hills at the time.

1281
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: This is the late nineties. I was still on the

1282
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,640
Speaker 1: f M side. The most part, you and mar Chase

1283
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,240
Speaker 1: that invited me to come over to the Big One

1284
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 1: because they said I talked too much for the music

1285
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 1: which I hired you. I sired you, but I didn't

1286
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:10,160
Speaker 1: fire you. You did, and I thank you for not

1287
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 1: firing me. I did not fire you. I don't recall

1288
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 1: doing anything you should have. What did I do what

1289
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 1: did I do that?

1290
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,680
Speaker 7: Trying to hear at that point you were young and

1291
00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 7: you were dumb. I thought, this guy's got talent. Like Moeger,

1292
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 7: I recognized it early. Another I recognized it earlier.

1293
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 6: Yes, it began.

1294
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 1: You are a finder of good talent, and I'm somehow

1295
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 1: just sneaking around. Whoa, whoa? You're talking about them or me?

1296
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,160
Speaker 1: That kind of hurts, kind of hurts, you know, I

1297
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: got I got a lot of self loathing, Willy. I

1298
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,000
Speaker 1: got a genetic guilt, and then I got learned guilt.

1299
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:44,040
Speaker 1: Half my family Jews, half not and they encreage in

1300
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 1: both ways. Yeah, so I am constantly worried about everything

1301
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 1: being my fault and not good. It is. Thank you

1302
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:53,120
Speaker 1: for contributing to that. What about Minneapolis, what can you

1303
00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 1: tell me? It's a fantastic city. The Trench cities are beautiful.

1304
00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 1: It is extremely cold. You think it's cold here? No, no, no,

1305
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 1: this is short's weather for those people about four hundred

1306
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 1: miles north. Yes, even with Montana, it is ridiculous. But

1307
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:11,959
Speaker 1: it is chaos right now, Willie. It is an ugly circumstance.

1308
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 1: You two people lose the lives engaging with the Ice

1309
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,919
Speaker 1: into immigration as they're going about their business. Up there,

1310
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 1: you've got state and local authorities that, it seemed to

1311
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:24,600
Speaker 1: be fighting with the federal How do you think that's

1312
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:27,400
Speaker 1: going to play out? Federal has overall authority, do they

1313
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 1: not correct?

1314
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 7: It's called the supremacy clause. As you know, yes, when

1315
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:34,200
Speaker 7: it comes to enforcing federal law, the locals have little

1316
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 7: or no power at all, and the Feds have complete

1317
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,880
Speaker 7: power when it comes to interpreting federal law. You might

1318
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:43,400
Speaker 7: recall in the fifties and sixties, there were Democrats all

1319
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,520
Speaker 7: over the South, yes, that did not want to have

1320
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,920
Speaker 7: federal law imposed upon their schools. They said, wait a minute,

1321
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 7: these black folks can't get educated or were going to

1322
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 7: keep them young and dumb. Let's not put them in school.

1323
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 7: And the Republican Party said, Dwight Eisenhower, We're not going

1324
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,240
Speaker 7: to have that. Called in the soldiers the troops to

1325
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:04,080
Speaker 7: tell Democrats, federal law applies in Little Rock and Tuscaloosa,

1326
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:07,360
Speaker 7: it applies in Georgia. And the Democrats, after about fifteen

1327
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:10,439
Speaker 7: or twenty years, said, okay, jump ahead, if you can

1328
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 7: jump back, let's go back the Confederacy. What political party

1329
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:16,000
Speaker 7: were the Confederates?

1330
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:19,680
Speaker 1: The Confederates at that point, I believe were I guess democrats.

1331
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 7: Now about Jefferson Davis, Ye, Robert E. Lee, all Democrats,

1332
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,160
Speaker 7: they said, guess what we have slavery. We're not going

1333
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 7: to let it go. What we're going to do here,

1334
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 7: We're going to keep the slaves. Federal law doesn't apply here.

1335
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 7: Abe Lincoln said, oh yes it does, and your listen

1336
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,720
Speaker 7: is s grant. So once again the nation arose up

1337
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,680
Speaker 7: to Democrats, who sang, federal law jump ahead a little

1338
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:41,440
Speaker 7: bit longer. Nineteen sixty Civil Rights Act. Which political party

1339
01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:43,760
Speaker 7: was filibustering civil rights for black folks?

1340
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:45,400
Speaker 1: That was the Republicans at the time.

1341
01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 6: No, that's all for.

1342
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,760
Speaker 1: Equality, Yeah, that was democrats. Democrats wanted equality.

1343
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, that's what I was saying.

1344
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:52,840
Speaker 1: I meant the other way.

1345
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:54,000
Speaker 6: No, no, no.

1346
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 7: The Democrats were filibustering to make sure that black folks

1347
01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:01,080
Speaker 7: could not vote. The Republicans said, you know what, we're

1348
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:03,120
Speaker 7: going to overcome your veto and get it done. Now

1349
01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:06,720
Speaker 7: here we are half a century later, once again Democrats

1350
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 7: are saying, guess what, federal law doesn't apply here. We're

1351
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 7: not going to cooperate. We're going to make it difficult.

1352
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 7: We're going to organize groups of protests. We're going to annoy, impede, harass,

1353
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:18,920
Speaker 7: and stop the enforcement of federal law. Will be in

1354
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 7: your face with our cell phones. We're going to have

1355
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:25,280
Speaker 7: barriers so that you can't arrest serious gang bangers from

1356
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 7: other countries. In fact, the one they were looking at

1357
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 7: yesterday morning is now walking the streets of Minneapolis because

1358
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 7: Alex and others made it difficult for the ICE to act.

1359
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:40,400
Speaker 7: And so once again history is repeating itself. Democrats do

1360
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 7: not want federal law to be imposed in areas they control.

1361
01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 7: Whether it was Jefferson Davis or whether it was the

1362
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,840
Speaker 7: Ku Klux Klan lynching black folks.

1363
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:49,800
Speaker 6: Which party did that.

1364
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:52,400
Speaker 1: By the way, well it was Democrats. Of the Democrats

1365
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 1: would have had a party. What I have a question

1366
01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:56,959
Speaker 1: for you, Willie, Because some things have changed, some things

1367
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 1: have not. And I think most people generally are good,

1368
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,800
Speaker 1: regardless of political part of your affiliation or whatever else

1369
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 1: with that, But what I would like to understand and know,

1370
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:07,080
Speaker 1: and I've yet to find anyone who can give me

1371
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:09,720
Speaker 1: a Legiti, I'll give me an answer that's the right answer.

1372
01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 1: I'll give you a name I know that's right. Obama

1373
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 1: apparently deported his administration millions.

1374
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 6: Five point three million without incident.

1375
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,360
Speaker 1: That that's what I would like to know with How

1376
01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: do they go about the removal of that many people

1377
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 1: without the conflict? Is it Democrats?

1378
01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:36,440
Speaker 6: So? Democrats? Democrats? Obama? How about Alien Gonzales nineteen ninety nine?

1379
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 1: Remember that?

1380
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 7: Remember him with the ice agent and with the rifle

1381
01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 7: and the kid in the closet, or the riots and protests?

1382
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 1: Harry Stone, Now what happened back to Cuba? Obama? Deporter

1383
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 1: in chief? Wherever you came from? I have the cuts

1384
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 1: I played Danny Boy.

1385
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:55,720
Speaker 7: Danny Boy has them of Obama and the Clintons and

1386
01:02:55,800 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 7: Joe Biden talking like Donald Trump, same stuff. Federal come

1387
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 7: here legally, don't take American jobs, get in line, no

1388
01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:08,680
Speaker 7: welfare benefits, et cetera. If you're illegal. Guess what Democrats

1389
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,800
Speaker 7: now saying federal law doesn't apply. We have to replace

1390
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 7: a great replacement theory. We keep losing national elections. We've

1391
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 7: got to replace the electorate with individuals on welfare from

1392
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:23,040
Speaker 7: from uh, Lithuania, from They can't vote.

1393
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 6: Oh yes they do.

1394
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 7: No, No, Let me give you an example how they vote. Minneapolis, Minnesota,

1395
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 7: voter ID. Is that required in Minneapolis or Minnesota? I

1396
01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:33,480
Speaker 7: don't know for you see, and that's a basic thing.

1397
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:35,120
Speaker 7: I don't think it's too much to ask to be

1398
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 7: able to prove that you're Bill Cunningham or that I'm

1399
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:40,439
Speaker 7: sterling his dam. I show up as a breathing human being.

1400
01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:43,280
Speaker 7: I sign an affidavity telling you what my name is.

1401
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:46,560
Speaker 7: I have no voter ID, no birth certificate, no passport,

1402
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 7: no driver's licens, no state issue. I vote, plus I

1403
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:52,600
Speaker 7: can sponsor eight more. I vouch for these other eight

1404
01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 7: people who have no ID, who can't speak of the English,

1405
01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 7: I'm vouting for, vouching for them too.

1406
01:03:58,320 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 6: Is that fair, Sterling?

1407
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,520
Speaker 1: It does not say that's Minnesota.

1408
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:03,200
Speaker 6: That's called what's happening.

1409
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:05,680
Speaker 7: How about sending out one hundred and fifty thousand ballots

1410
01:04:05,760 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 7: in Las Vegas Clark County that every registered voter in

1411
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 7: Clark County without any idea required as far as who's voting.

1412
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 6: Is that fair?

1413
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 1: Did that change the outcome of the election in Nevada?

1414
01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 6: I don't know. I think it would.

1415
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 7: If I think Trump would have won, Trump would have

1416
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:22,000
Speaker 7: won Minnesota, Trump would have won many states, but he

1417
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:25,240
Speaker 7: didn't because there's No, we have such a sloppy voter

1418
01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:26,320
Speaker 7: system in this country.

1419
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:27,360
Speaker 6: That's the problem.

1420
01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 1: Do you think that the way they're going about this

1421
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:33,800
Speaker 1: as far as the protest and well, the protesters, some

1422
01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 1: of them across the line clearly, like biting off a

1423
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:39,680
Speaker 1: agent's finger for example, that that was probably crossing the line.

1424
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 6: I was shooting at them?

1425
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 1: Is shooting at them as bad about.

1426
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 7: Fighting with him and beating them, throwing frozen bottles at them.

1427
01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:48,720
Speaker 1: But it shouldn't be illegal, and it is not illegal

1428
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: to observe and to video and and.

1429
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:52,280
Speaker 6: What about that?

1430
01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 1: What about Alex do you know? But he was a

1431
01:04:56,360 --> 01:05:00,760
Speaker 1: legal gun carrier? Yes, well, I look to the Minnesota

1432
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:03,280
Speaker 1: law if you're interested, I'm the sy mask. An illegal

1433
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:06,640
Speaker 1: gun owner must do certain things. Number One, he must

1434
01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 1: have on his person the little driver's license type thing

1435
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:12,480
Speaker 1: that says I'm a legal gun owner, right, and Pretti

1436
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:15,120
Speaker 1: did not have that. Secondly, he must have a second

1437
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 1: form of identification, a picture to prove who he is.

1438
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:19,240
Speaker 6: Yes, he didn't have that.

1439
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,160
Speaker 7: So at the moment he had the gun, the P

1440
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:24,880
Speaker 7: three twenty six hour, he was not a legal gun owner.

1441
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 1: He was a legal gun owner. He was illegally carrying

1442
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 1: the gun. Did they to be devil's advocate? Did they

1443
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 1: give him time to appropriately identify himself? I mean, in

1444
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,760
Speaker 1: that situation, could that have been abated and avoided the

1445
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 1: conflict the way it went?

1446
01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 7: In a sense, the gun ownership didn't matter, didn't make

1447
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,600
Speaker 7: a bit of difference whether he had a gun legally

1448
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 7: or not. The cops would have done exactly the same thing.

1449
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:48,560
Speaker 7: When you hear a gun, gun, gun, guess what it's

1450
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 7: on now.

1451
01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 1: So if you're legally caring and with your idea and

1452
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 1: all that other thing, I'm a fan of concealed carry.

1453
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,320
Speaker 1: I'm a fan frankly of open carry right, and I

1454
01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:58,920
Speaker 1: like to go shooting, and I want to keep my

1455
01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 1: family safe and protect me or anybody around me as necessary.

1456
01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,280
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are concerned though that

1457
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 1: in this situation there is no I don't want to

1458
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 1: say common ground, but it's very challenging when you have

1459
01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:14,680
Speaker 1: a policing event going on the way it is, and

1460
01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 1: people wanting to observe, even if they're not engaging to

1461
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:19,680
Speaker 1: a distance from a distances fine.

1462
01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:21,280
Speaker 6: Harassing and harassing.

1463
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no no no not way, no no, no,

1464
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:26,080
Speaker 1: you don't don't don't mistate me. I am not saying

1465
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 1: yes you are, no, no.

1466
01:06:27,600 --> 01:06:29,200
Speaker 6: Yes you are? How yes you are?

1467
01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 1: I dare you? I am all about letting these people

1468
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:33,720
Speaker 1: go about their work.

1469
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:36,800
Speaker 7: And if you don't annoy them, don't get in their face,

1470
01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 7: don't throw things at them.

1471
01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 1: But they also should be able to handle someone yewling

1472
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:41,760
Speaker 1: at them. They shouldn't do.

1473
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,360
Speaker 7: That all the time. This guy didn't do that. It

1474
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:46,960
Speaker 7: was in the middle of the street directing traffic.

1475
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: Ugly bad situation.

1476
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 7: Lastly, let's say you get it called nine to one

1477
01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:52,120
Speaker 7: one robbery in progress.

1478
01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 1: Yes, horrible, horrible situation.

1479
01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 7: And the robbers are in the bank and the cops

1480
01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 7: are outside, right, and here comes fifty pro tester say, now,

1481
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 7: wait a minute, you're not going to arrest those guys, right,

1482
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:06,160
Speaker 7: because the man has to pay for reparation.

1483
01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:07,479
Speaker 6: The man's got to pay.

1484
01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 7: Would we even consider disrupting a police operation to arrest

1485
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 7: a bank robber and say, okay, you got to be

1486
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 7: careful with you gotta you have to understand they have

1487
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:17,560
Speaker 7: a point.

1488
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:18,720
Speaker 6: Did you ever think like that?

1489
01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:20,160
Speaker 1: No, in that situation, same thing.

1490
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:23,440
Speaker 7: Here, they were making an arrest and they were identifying

1491
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:26,240
Speaker 7: a person who was a gangbanger, and these large groups

1492
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:29,280
Speaker 7: of people, incentivized by the governor and the mayor suddenly

1493
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:32,160
Speaker 7: took upon themselves to stop a police operation.

1494
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:33,640
Speaker 6: Does that make sense to you?

1495
01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,000
Speaker 1: No, not as you frame that. No, I do not

1496
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:36,800
Speaker 1: like the way that sounds.

1497
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 6: All I got. You're pissing me off.

1498
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,640
Speaker 1: I gotta go wait, wait, wait wait, I gotta get right.

1499
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,120
Speaker 1: I know you have to get ready. Do you think

1500
01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:45,400
Speaker 1: that at this point, because it seems to be always

1501
01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,000
Speaker 1: either Republican or Democrat kind of battling one another, that

1502
01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:50,120
Speaker 1: we will get to a place, a more common ground

1503
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:51,840
Speaker 1: and getting along where things makes Why?

1504
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:52,520
Speaker 4: Why?

1505
01:07:52,680 --> 01:07:55,320
Speaker 7: Because the media is incentivized to create havoc, to cause

1506
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:58,640
Speaker 7: more listenership and more viewership. The media is an adjunct

1507
01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 7: to the Democratic Party. When all these women were raped

1508
01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 7: and murdered by lego aliens, did the country stop for

1509
01:08:04,360 --> 01:08:07,040
Speaker 7: any of these uh illegal aliens that raped and murdered

1510
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 7: hundreds of women and say, now, wait a minute, this

1511
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:12,440
Speaker 7: is presidential policy causing the death of Americans.

1512
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 6: We got to stop this. Does CNN do any of that?

1513
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:16,000
Speaker 1: I don't recall them doing it this.

1514
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:17,639
Speaker 6: Of course not. It didn't fit their agenda.

1515
01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:20,960
Speaker 1: But I think any reasonable rational human being regardless of

1516
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:23,280
Speaker 1: but you're not well. Thank you for that, And that

1517
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,240
Speaker 1: coming from you, I think is probably a complix. Yeah,

1518
01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:27,920
Speaker 1: that's probably true. You're not right either, though, but I

1519
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:30,400
Speaker 1: love you. No, I am right, I'm correct, Yes, but

1520
01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:31,240
Speaker 1: you are way wrong.

1521
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:32,280
Speaker 6: I'm correct.

1522
01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:36,320
Speaker 1: In this situation. The way they've gone about this, you know,

1523
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 1: the idea just of reasonable rational people getting along. No

1524
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,800
Speaker 1: one of a reasonable rational mind is going to say

1525
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 1: that they want a criminal. I don't care whether you're

1526
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:48,080
Speaker 1: from Iran or Canada, or Mexico or Madeira for that matter.

1527
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 1: If you're raping and pillaging and causing harm, we want

1528
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:52,040
Speaker 1: criminals locked up.

1529
01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:54,639
Speaker 7: That's what democrats saying until they're released off death row

1530
01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:56,719
Speaker 7: with a no R bond like Elwood Jones.

1531
01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:58,280
Speaker 1: Is that what is that what you're saying. No, that's

1532
01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:01,120
Speaker 1: not what I'm saying. No, No, miss screamed, you did? You

1533
01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:06,840
Speaker 1: very good at that. I've miscrewed, misconstrued. You're just saying.

1534
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 1: I understand by the way Settle is going to be

1535
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, isn't it about time they should

1536
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:11,320
Speaker 1: be there?

1537
01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:11,680
Speaker 4: No? I don't.

1538
01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:15,280
Speaker 6: I don't like seeing them liberal democrats. I gotta get

1539
01:09:15,280 --> 01:09:16,479
Speaker 6: ready for that well you you should.

1540
01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 1: I appreciate you stopping buy it was good to see

1541
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:21,920
Speaker 1: you take notes. What I would like to do is

1542
01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:24,920
Speaker 1: have you explain at some point how you got out

1543
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:27,439
Speaker 1: of the house, out of the driveway and here the

1544
01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:28,400
Speaker 1: power you have.

1545
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:30,200
Speaker 6: Let me just say, the.

1546
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:32,639
Speaker 1: Crown and the way that you carry, no names used.

1547
01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:35,320
Speaker 1: Let me just say. He makes a phone call to

1548
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:38,559
Speaker 1: like authorities from the county and above, and they show

1549
01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 1: up with the team to clear the driveway, to clear

1550
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 1: the road, to bring him here to the big one idea.

1551
01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:47,880
Speaker 1: It is amazing. And if I call you know what

1552
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:50,160
Speaker 1: I get? I get nothing. I get no crickets that

1553
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,479
Speaker 1: I do. I get laugh at They're like, no, no, no,

1554
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 1: good luck to you. Maybe you should stay home. It's

1555
01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:57,800
Speaker 1: a level three is no emergency? Can you do the

1556
01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:00,040
Speaker 1: show from the house? A sterling? And I go, I

1557
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 1: don't know, I'll get there and here I am. Willie

1558
01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:05,880
Speaker 1: is coming up. If you had not already figured that out,

1559
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:08,200
Speaker 1: he will try to make sense of everything that's going

1560
01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 1: on in the world and to try to do what

1561
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,280
Speaker 1: he does to the best of his abilities. It is

1562
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:17,680
Speaker 1: a challenging, conflicting time. And the thing is this, I

1563
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:19,840
Speaker 1: think most people on planet Earth are good and decent,

1564
01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:23,760
Speaker 1: and I think most people Republican, Democrat or otherwise are

1565
01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,439
Speaker 1: decent people who are just trying to get by, who

1566
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:28,080
Speaker 1: want to take care of their kids, to have food

1567
01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:31,600
Speaker 1: on a table, for their clothes on them, and to

1568
01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:34,200
Speaker 1: roof over their head, to be safe and secure. I

1569
01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:37,559
Speaker 1: would like to think that at some point, I don't

1570
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:39,720
Speaker 1: know when this is ever going to happen, we'll get

1571
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:46,280
Speaker 1: to a place where no longer marginalizing, somehow dehumanizing, and

1572
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 1: somehow making it seem as that either people from other

1573
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:52,320
Speaker 1: places in general who have been here not criminals, other

1574
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:54,920
Speaker 1: than being here rather than in the country of their

1575
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,880
Speaker 1: native land, that are here trying to make their way

1576
01:10:57,920 --> 01:11:00,520
Speaker 1: in the world, who have been contributing and paying taxes

1577
01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:03,400
Speaker 1: and doing what they do, would be able to maybe

1578
01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:07,200
Speaker 1: reasonably and rationally have an opportunity to get to a

1579
01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:09,760
Speaker 1: place of some type of well, you're here, and you've

1580
01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 1: been a good citizen or at least a good resident.

1581
01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:16,040
Speaker 1: You here as a pathway to your citizenship. There are

1582
01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:18,719
Speaker 1: children who have been in school, who have grown up here.

1583
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:22,839
Speaker 1: Is a very difficult thing to make you a situation

1584
01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 1: even worse where you have authorities going or threatening to

1585
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:30,280
Speaker 1: go into schools, to show up and to go into churches.

1586
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 1: There was the big kerfuffle and all the talk about

1587
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:36,040
Speaker 1: the protesters, which was pretty ridiculous going into the church

1588
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 1: in the Twin Cities a couple of days ago. But

1589
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,000
Speaker 1: the other side of it is and they say, oh,

1590
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 1: it was traumatizing to the children, It was traumatizing to

1591
01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:46,439
Speaker 1: the congregation. It was over the top. It was offensive,

1592
01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:49,240
Speaker 1: it was inappropriate, It was wrong. It shouldn't have happened. Well,

1593
01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 1: what about the idea of a church, a place of worship,

1594
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:56,360
Speaker 1: a synagogue, a temple, a mosque, being a place where

1595
01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:59,839
Speaker 1: someone has some ability to stay away from the trauma

1596
01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:04,000
Speaker 1: that even authorities have made ice border patrol? What have

1597
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 1: you going and doing their work? But why at a church?

1598
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,640
Speaker 1: Why at a school? Why in a hospital when a

1599
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 1: child's getting critical care do they come in and snatch

1600
01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:14,320
Speaker 1: their family out of there and leave them behind. I

1601
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:16,600
Speaker 1: would think as Americans, we could do it better. I

1602
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:18,479
Speaker 1: would hope and pray to God that we could do

1603
01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:20,799
Speaker 1: it better and that we you know, it would be decent.

1604
01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:23,920
Speaker 1: No one, not even Danny Gleeson, not even our Willy.

1605
01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,559
Speaker 1: We agree about ninety percent of the stuff that we

1606
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 1: talk about Willy and I. Though we do have a

1607
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:32,360
Speaker 1: lot of fun, the reality exists that I don't think

1608
01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:35,640
Speaker 1: anyone wants criminals on our streets doing criminal things. I

1609
01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:38,240
Speaker 1: don't care where they're from. We're just people. And as

1610
01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:39,880
Speaker 1: I'm out here on Montgomery Road and I'm going to

1611
01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:41,519
Speaker 1: go get some food, if I can find any place

1612
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:43,760
Speaker 1: at all, possibly please open what I get out of here.

1613
01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:46,360
Speaker 1: As I listened to where a Willy coming up, I

1614
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,640
Speaker 1: would hope that if anybody does something wrong, regardless of

1615
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:52,439
Speaker 1: where they're from, law enforcement's going to do their job

1616
01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:55,600
Speaker 1: and get them locked up and handle that process appropriately

1617
01:12:55,920 --> 01:12:57,920
Speaker 1: so that we're all safer. And I would hope that

1618
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:00,400
Speaker 1: would be the same way it plays out fross this

1619
01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:03,320
Speaker 1: country or for that matter, around the world, because we

1620
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 1: want everyone to be safe and secure and have a

1621
01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:10,439
Speaker 1: way to find, you know, tomorrow, and to have a

1622
01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:12,599
Speaker 1: good day and a good life and to you know,

1623
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:15,920
Speaker 1: continue onward and forward. And that's what Willy's gonna do

1624
01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 1: when I leave here your ten o'clock reports straight away.
