WEBVTT - Mornings with Thom Brennaman 12/3/2025 0:00:00.400 --> 0:00:04.359 This is the Bloomberg Money Minute on seven hundred WLA 0:00:04.440 --> 0:00:08.000 all right in the Pride of the Ohio University in Athens, Ohio. 0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:11.200 Dan Schwartzman from our Bloomberg newsroom in New York City, 0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:15.920 a consumer goods giant, says Americans aren't spending as much 0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:16.520 these days. 0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:18.439 Danny, that's right, tom An. 0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:21.319 Americans consumers seemed to be cautious with their spending heading 0:00:21.320 --> 0:00:23.880 into the holiday season. That's according to Procter and Gamble 0:00:24.000 --> 0:00:27.040 chief financial officer Andre Schulten, who says US sales and 0:00:27.080 --> 0:00:29.840 the product categories the company competes in word down quote 0:00:30.000 --> 0:00:34.159 significantly in October and probably in November as well. Shulton, 0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:36.559 speaking at a conference hosted by Morgan Stanley, said the 0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:40.599 government shutdown, which impacted monthly federal food assistance, was a 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.720 factor in the declining sales. So everybody, of course felt 0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:45.840 the hit of that lengthy shutdown. 0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:51.040 Meanwhile, Bitcoin, which of course exploded then went south, but 0:00:51.120 --> 0:00:53.199 apparently making a comeback. 0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:55.240 Thank goodness. I have a thousand of them. Right there 0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:56.720 you go, Danny, there you go. 0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:01.200 It has rebounded, it's extending in today, the original cryptocurrency 0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:03.600 rising as much as two point six percent it's hit 0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:05.480 a two week high of just shy of ninety four 0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:08.680 thousand dollars. The entire digital assets market has seen a 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:11.640 sell off beginning in early October after Bigcorn reached a 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:14.720 record value of over one hundred and twenty six thousand. Now, 0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:17.280 since then, more than a trillion dollars in crypto market 0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:20.720 value has been wiped out. So it has a comeback beginning. 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:22.760 Still ninety four thousand, not bad. 0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:25.320 Not bad at all, all right. In the futures this morning. 0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.920 Dan still green fingers crossed down is up a quarter 0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:30.320 of one percent. SMP currently up three tenths of a percent, 0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:32.440 and as that gives up two tens a one percent 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:36.039 from Bloomberg. Dan Schwartzman on News Radio seven hundred WLW, 0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:37.800 all right. 0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.960 Eight ten on the Morning Show. You're on seven hundred WLW. 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.679 We do this the first Wednesday of every month, and 0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:48.840 we are honored to do so. We welcome in Steve Bozo, 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:53.720 Kenny Williamson from the Claremont County Veteran Services and all 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:55.640 the incredible work that they do. 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.440 Uh, good morning, it's nice to see you. We missed you. 0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:01.640 Last month. There was some kind of scheduling situation. I 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:02.480 don't know what it was. 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:07.600 Well, salute to you as well this morning, Tom, Yeah, 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:10.000 it was actually family emergency. 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:11.959 That's right, Yeah, that's right. 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:16.440 Everything Okay, everything is stupendously well with our son, good 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:19.960 father in law. That's the way on Monday. So shout 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:24.680 out to Korean War veteran mister Bill. Yeah, shout out 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.440 in deep thoughts and prayers with you and your family. 0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:29.080 Thank you, absolutely, yeah, so, and thank him for his 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:32.600 service as we do, uh to every single veteran. I 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:35.640 do my best every time I'll see somebody wearing a 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:41.000 you know, Korean War hat, Vietnam hat, jacket, whatever the 0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:45.160 case may be. Uh, it's that stuff important to veterans. 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:47.000 It is to a lot of veterans. One. 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.720 It's identity. There's a lot of identity in the service 0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:55.800 wearing your uniform and how much I mean with ribbons, badgers, medals. 0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:00.200 There's all kinds of different ways that we wear our 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.840 resume on our unif shirt. So when someone steps in, 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:06.000 it's like, oh, I know, you did, you did? You did? 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:08.840 You did? And so when you leave the service, you 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.760 leave the uniform in the closet. Then we don't wear 0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:14.760 it out on town. So for some of them, it's 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:19.120 looking for a lost identity because I hung. 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:19.440 It up. 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:21.240 O. 0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:25.160 Typically in your retirees twenty to thirty years, they've had 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:29.320 enough identity. It's the problem is moving on and setting 0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:33.160 new heights and new new things to achieve, rather than 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:34.600 staying in the rearview mirror. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:36.560 All right, let's talk about what you guys are doing 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:37.600 out in Claremont County. 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:38.160 Right now. 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.840 You've helped over twenty five hundred veterans in their families 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:45.839 with a number of different whether it's service related claims, 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:48.720 it could be other issues, a number of issues, any 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.560 number of issues. And now you've added a new service officer. 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:53.640 You talked about this that you were going to do 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:57.760 so a couple of months ago, and you've adjusted calendars 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:02.080 for greater appointment you know, sort of following through. 0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:03.400 Talk about that a little bit. 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:07.440 Yeah, so we were currently well, let's say currently about 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:09.640 six months ago, we were still lagging. 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:12.280 I did a little research for about fifteen. 0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:15.600 Months, at about six weeks waiting time for an appointment. 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.920 The Compact Act, the Packed Act, other things released by 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:22.160 the VA was just flooding the office. I've got great 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:25.159 service officers, but when you start stacking back that far 0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.039 I can't give the service to the veterans. And frankly, 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:31.679 what that's occurring is a is a draw of six 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:34.880 weeks before you can start realizing. 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:36.320 The benefit of an injury that you had. 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:40.719 So brought in another service officer, great young gal just 0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:43.120 out of the Air Force after eight years, already been 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:47.159 through training certified. By bringing in one increases my through 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:49.760 foot by twenty percent just by having a new service officer. 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:53.359 But then we also looked at the calendars and how 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:57.200 we were triaging people coming in with for benefits or 0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:00.600 claim situations. We were able to work with that so 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:05.640 that we could increase appointment times throughout the week and 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.880 also able to draft a day of just administrative attention 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.960 to the claims that were being filed, so claims were 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.679 filed with quality rather than in haste. And we're seeing 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.080 a benefit of that return because we've given them the 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.000 time to do a better quality claim. 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:23.960 And I should note for those wondering, all of this 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:27.320 is free of charge. All free of charge. Another thing 0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:30.599 you did. And look, it's often in the details and 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:32.640 it doesn't always have to be the big things. You've 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:35.680 forgotten more about this stuff than I do. But increase transportation. 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.120 You've increased that right now to help veterans get to 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:44.880 the VA for their appointments. I mean that stuff. I 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:46.560 don't know if I could ever put it into words 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.440 what that means to somebody, because maybe they can't drive, 0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:51.600 maybe they don't have anybody that can take them there, 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:53.600 maybe they don't have a way to get their period 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:54.880 or intimidated. 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:59.200 Downtown Cincinnati traffic Aaron Martin, Luther King drive right, a 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:01.880 very small part parking lot for the VA, and sometimes 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:05.080 veterans are circling the parking lot forty five minutes looking 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:07.279 for a spot to park. So you're driving down there 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.240 an hour and a half early. Where we can do 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:11.880 door to door service. We're picking you up at your home, 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.960 dropping you off at the front doors, and then taking 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:17.880 you back home with your appointments over We were transporting 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.360 over one hundred and thirty veterans for the past three 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:24.880 or four months a month, so the increases there, they're 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:29.080 realizing the benefit of letting us take them there and 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:31.680 bring them back. It's also when you know mom and 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.960 dad are getting kind of old. Do we really want 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:37.400 mom driving and just traffic in downtown right? Dad, Uncle 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:39.800 Joe whatever it might be. Now there's a way that 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.640 we can pick them up. If it's a VA appointment 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.640 for Claremont County, we will take you to and from 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.880 your medical appointment. Well, what that's caused is a huge 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:53.080 rush of people calling in for transportation. So to be 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.320 able to meet that demand, we've purchased a new vehicle. 0:06:56.480 --> 0:07:00.560 So it's increased twenty percent of my availability and we've 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:03.920 brought on some more drivers. All of my drivers are veterans. 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:04.560 Tom. 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:07.760 They can talk to talk and they enjoy the veterans 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.000 coming in. Where were you, what did you do? And 0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:13.120 it just becomes a nice little social time for a 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.160 lot of the veterans transporting down to the visa. 0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:16.600 I bet it is, I bet it is. 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:20.040 And then again, this is the kind of stuff and 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:22.880 this could this could apply to anybody not even associated 0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:25.960 with veterans. Right where you know, you're trying to get 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:30.880 something done, and then the company's website, their software is brutal. Right, 0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:34.320 one roadblock, one roadblock, one roadblock. Okay, so you're talking 0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:37.800 about things now that you're really trying to make it 0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:41.480 easier for these people that served our country. Talked about 0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:46.000 the vehicle, talked about increasing the ability to get these 0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.960 men and women to their medical appointments. And now you 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.640 even have new software and what a benefit that's got 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:54.080 to be right for everybody. 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:56.320 Oh, you know with the advent of SaaS, you know, 0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:59.320 software as a solution compared to the old on prem 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:01.760 that you had to get and uploaded and do this 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:02.640 and it's broken. 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:04.240 Where's it come? Fix this? 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:05.280 Now? 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:08.240 With the SaaS applications, we connect right to the VA, 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:10.800 so as soon as we send it, the VA receives it. 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:15.800 There's no intermediary we have to pass through. It's two 0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:20.760 factor multi factor authentication, so it's secure. It goes encrypted, 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.120 so no one has to worry about where's my stuff 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:27.400 in the stratosphere of the cloud and it by time 0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:31.200 you sit down with a service officer and we have 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:33.120 you in the system with your d D two fourteen, 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:38.280 it will prefill the header form out name, address, phone number, 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:41.360 social security number. So all's a service officer has to 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.440 do is start typing up the conditions and the codes 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:46.400 that go along with what you're applying for. 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:49.120 Is that stuff complicated or really, won't you take a 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:51.000 look at it, or it's pretty complicated. 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:55.120 Probably it's two four inch volumes every year that you 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:57.000 just the question right. 0:08:57.080 --> 0:08:58.440 It's like being a lawyer. 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:02.440 And so my service officer go to school five six 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:07.800 times a year. They're back in continuing education, just learning 0:09:07.840 --> 0:09:10.840 what the rules are, what's changing, what they heay, I. 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:11.200 Mean, just. 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:16.520 It's it's so simple, yet so smart, and so frequently 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:22.800 neglected in so many areas in and around. Okay, let's 0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:25.960 assume somebody either has not used your services, maybe they're 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.160 new to town. Maybe all of a sudden, now they 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:31.600 need to get down to the VA. How would someone 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:35.480 reach out to you all to get things started? 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.520 Sure, easy phone number five one three seven three two 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:43.240 seven three six'.

Merciful there's 0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:45.879 an Old simpsons episode Where Ned flanders is on his 0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:48.600 way to church camp and The homer turns them and, 0:18:48.600 --> 0:18:51.240 says church camp is that where You christians go to 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:51.959 learn how to be more. 0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:55.679 Judgmental SO i think there are lots of, caricatures and 0:18:56.040 --> 0:18:58.960 that ownership is on us and one not caricature other. 0:18:59.000 --> 0:19:02.080 People As, CHRISTIANS i want to try and show That 0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:05.479 i'm not like the.

Others, sure that's more 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.720 of a case help me, here, now, pastor that's more 0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:13.320 of a case of someone who's probably not A.
