Some people have shorter shows and 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.480 others course Bengals on the road taking on the Ravens 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.800 and charm City with Joe Burrow back under center.

I'm thankful for you. 0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:42.480 I'm grateful for many thanks. I'm very I am just 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:47.360 I live in that space of just feeling good about 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:49.800 what all is is around me, even when you. 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:55.080 Look on social media on holidays like this, especially Thanksgiving, Christmas, 0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:58.960 Easter is another heart you know, pull yeah heart strings 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:03.640 and everybody is so like lovely and kind and nice 0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.200 for the most part. It's wonderful it is. 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:09.560 And you travel a lot, and this is something We've 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:13.920 talked about off the air a good bit and I'm 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:17.040 sort of torn on it. When I was flying more 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:19.480 and even now when it's just on occasion, it's usually 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.120 get out of town and have a good time, maybe 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:25.960 sometimes to see family and friends elsewhere. I inevitably find 0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:31.919 myself seating next to someone who is either it hasn't bathed. 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.120 I don't know. Maybe they're nervous and it just oozes 0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:39.200 out of their pores in a stinky way. Sometimes there'll 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:41.040 be the people who want to kick off their shoes 0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:45.200 or whatever else. I'm not saying that things. Civility may 0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:47.920 start with dress and respect for yourself and maybe respect 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:51.400 for others. I'm about being comfortable. Believe me. You know, 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:53.799 I'm not necessarily a suit and high type of guy 0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:57.000 unless I have to be. I wasn't around for the 0:02:57.080 --> 0:03:01.200 old days when flying was Fedora's and sue and cocktails 0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:04.760 and cigarettes in the sky in metal tubes filled with 0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:08.919 like smoke and hot like stewardesses, when it was more 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.680 than just saving your life and everything else. I mean, 0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:14.720 you know, different times, don at different times. 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:18.480 Yes, I understand, and I do listen. I think I 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.720 know what you're referring to, because we talked about it 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.360 a second right before we got on air. US Transportation 0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.720 Secretary Sean Duffy says, basically. 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:30.640 Americans should do better. 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:34.880 They should dress better, because we're seeing a lot of 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.560 videos of people fighting on planes, fighting this and that 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:39.480 and everything else. 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:41.320 But he has a point. 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:45.640 I actually agree with him, because when you dress better, 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:48.600 you look better, you feel better, you act better. 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:51.400 That's just the bottom line. It's true. 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.040 I mean, if you remember back in the days where 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:55.880 traveling was like. 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:01.040 It was like a reward. It was like, you know, 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:01.760 it was like. 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:08.480 Everyone would wear dresses and suits and get it was 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:12.800 an occasion to get on a plane and go. And yeah, 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:16.039 I think seeing people in their pajamas and slippers is 0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:20.279 a little it's a little bit of a bummer because yeah, 0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:23.159 I mean, do better is what he's saying. 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:25.320 And and I think we all. 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.400 Can now, but see the required the thing is, though 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.480 you got to then take off your shoes, You've got 0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:33.839 to take off your belt. Not everybody has that quick 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:38.640 pre check scenario. Then it becomes even slower, it becomes 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:42.720 a hassle. And who who was the I don't care 0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:44.320 if you have it. 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.240 Does how convenient does your life have to be? 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:47.800 Sterling? 0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.920 I mean, we we get door dat, we get food delivery, 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.760 we get I mean, we don't have to go to 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.520 the movies to see the biggest hits anymore. 0:04:57.880 --> 0:04:59.599 I mean, you know, we get. 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:02.360 Everything at our fingertips. Let's do a little bit better 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:02.880 on the dress. 0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:05.000 Cod So you're saying that I am not dressed well 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.400 enough to fly with Donna Dye? Is that what you're saying? 0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.040 I think you look appropriately. 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:10.320 Stand up. Let me see. I did see you. 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.839 I wear that I dressed for work. This is a workout, 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.400 this is a work well looking at my butt, Yeah, 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.760 it looks good. Done it. I'm just kidding. It's a turkey. 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:20.680 But you look perfectly fine. But not to fly the 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.680 way you're describing it. No Fedora which would protect my ball? 0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.080 Do if you had a nice blazer on with that 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:28.960 and some fun sneaks. What sneakers do you have on, 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:34.400 eddiebo Okay? Yeah, if you put some fool cooler sneakers, 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:38.560 those are good enough. Those look like hiking shoes, Sterling, 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:42.400 They look like hiking shoes. Put some Adidas on with 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:44.880 some stripes, and then put a cool jacket on, and 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:45.480 you're good. 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:47.159 You're good. 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:50.400 You normally have a pretty good style. But you pick 0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:52.080 it up a little bit, that's all. 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:55.400 Listen. I mean, I'm already spending money to fly. I'm 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.360 already gonna have to wait through you know, maybe a layover, 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.200 a delayed flight. The stinky guy next to me, And 0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:04.159 now you're telling me, even here, I'm not dressed appropriately. 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:05.599 I was so there. 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:07.920 No, I mean, so I got to wear a blazer, 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:09.960 and I understand, but it's it's. 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:13.200 Just cool to look a little bit more proper and 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:14.640 then you can set the tone. 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:15.600 It's amazing. 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:19.800 They did a scientific experiment of some they actually it's 0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:23.480 been done so many times. This woman was dropping boxes 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:26.400 all over and she was in this baggy sweatshirt and jacket. 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:27.799 She almost looked like a homeless person. 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:32.360 This really pretty young woman, right, and then nobody helped her. 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:34.640 But then she had a dress on and heels and 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:37.960 she was dropping these boxes and then everybody came over 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:42.280 to help her. There's there's a certain level of respect 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:48.360 that you have for yourself that people notice when you. 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:51.120 You know, when you get it's not like you have to. 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:54.960 Wear a suit, but you just so. What you're saying is, though, 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:57.960 if you dress better, someone's more willing to help you 0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:01.560 because you figure, oh, you look homeless, like the guy 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.280 who always sits next to me, I may have like 0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:06.000 a friend. On one side, I'm always unless I'm up front, 0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:09.640 which is occasional, rare, uh, And that I'm stuck with 0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:13.480 a stinky person. They if you dress better, you look better. 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:17.440 We judge people instantly. We are esthetically judging people constantly, 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:21.200 instant you know, assessment almost who they are, but almost 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:21.520 in a. 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:24.680 Good way, sterling because like if if you if you 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:27.160 have somebody that walks in that looks like they've taken 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.320 care of themselves, that looks like they've dressed well, they 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.760 took you know, an hour to get ready. 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:35.440 And you know what, yeah, not a pile of laundry. 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.280 I mean you uge, like pull My clothes are not 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:40.600 wrinkled other than the blazer, though I would be. I 0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.960 would fit into protocol to fly. And you think be 0:07:43.120 --> 0:07:45.040 respectable enough to not be a part. 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:48.120 Of your cross Sneakers are fine there, you don't have slippers. 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.280 I'm just saying you can hip it up a little right, right. 0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:53.040 All right, So here's the thing. Let's open the phones. 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:56.360 It's Thanksgiving. We're thankful you're with us. Wherever you're going, mom's, dad's, 0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:59.440 grandma's grandpause. Maybe you're on the job like us, whether 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:02.680 you're working first responders. I saw some stage troopers on 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:05.600 the side of seventy five on the way down. They 0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:07.720 were working some people might have been in a hurry 0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:10.160 to go someplace, so they're just trying to slow people down. 0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:14.360 But we respect and appreciate you being out there. So 0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:16.640 I guess, how dressed up do you get to fly? 0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:18.640 And how much of a difference is it. I don't 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:22.600 have a problem with relaxed and casual. I live business casual. Yeah, 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.600 I do too. I just suit and tie. If I'm 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.960 getting cocktails in the air and it's more relaxed. And 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.720 if I wasn't other than in business class or up 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:35.160 front in a seat that made me feel like, even 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.960 in my very s felt self might have had a 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:42.360 problem sitting there. I add more layers and more dress. 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:46.280 I'm more uncomfortable if you're making me more stress thinking 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:48.560 about it, and then I gotta go, where's my blazer? 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.600 I left my blazer on the plane? How do I 0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.760 get my blazer back? I mean, there's so many things, 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:57.560 uh five, one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, eight hundred. 0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:59.640 The big one your chance to get interactive. How dressed 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.040 up do you would that make flying easier on the 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:05.480 way home from Thanksgiving? If people, I mean, there's no 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:09.439 question you take yourself more seriously, arguably or at least 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:12.360 dressed better than people do respect you better. Greg, You're 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.520 with Stirling A.

Hello there, Hey, Happy Thanksgiving? 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:28.520 Thank you, thank you. Hey. 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:30.520 I'd like to expand this a little bit more too. 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:35.920 I'm a I'm a retired registered nurse. And visitors in 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:39.960 the hospital. I guess they think the hospital room now 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:43.199 is like your hotel room. You know you you you 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:46.920 rented the room, I guess. And it was nice during 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:50.160 COVID because you know, they really restricted visitation and made 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.840 life easy for all of us that were working the floor. 0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:56.120 But it was a pandemic a different times. 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.640 Did they bring their bathrobes and put their sleep. 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.880 They bring in picnic lunches. I'll tell you a story. 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:07.200 I worked a night shift once and the lady was 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:10.400 in there with her daughter and her stepson, and I 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:13.599 guess that they had there's no visitors hours anymore. I 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:15.679 guess you rent the hotel that you rent the room 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.120 if you can stay, so you know they were staying 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.079 in the room all night with the with the mom, 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:22.160 I guess. And then I go in here at three 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:24.800 o'clock in the morning and I go, where's your daughter 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.800 and your step son? And she goes, oh, they're in 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:31.319 the shower. I said, wait a minute, they're in the shower. 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.360 This is three o'clock in the morning. And she said, yeah, 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.520 you know they're in a relationship. 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:40.000 So a relationship. I don't know what hospital you're talking of. 0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:43.680 There's some crazies. I've never been in a hospital situation 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:47.119 like that. That's crazy. So that's a common place activity 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:50.599 or your I mean, is that the irregular or very common. 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:51.679 I don't know. 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:57.280 They I guess they figured it's you just can't greg. 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:03.640 I appreciate the bod. Yeah, he basically was not paying directly. Yeah, 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:07.000 so why would they care? Yeah, so what do you do? 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:10.440 I mean, he's right, he's taking it further. I do 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:14.120 think that you don't need to be so comfortable. I 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:16.280 went to a movie and saw the worst movie I 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:18.040 told you, Long Legs with Nick Cage. 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:21.559 Oh it was terrible, but that was a paycheck movie. 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:22.320 Oh my gosh. 0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:28.679 These people down the aisle from me had pajamas, blankets, 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:31.480 and I was like what in the world. 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.040 People like to be comfort and I think a lot 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.200 of people feel like they're just in a bubble and 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.720 they're kind of like, this is me in my life, 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:40.840 in my world. But that's no different than people walking, 0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:44.040 whether they're on their device or otherwise. People seem to 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:48.280 often be in a mode of oblivion when it comes 0:11:48.280 --> 0:11:49.679 to other people around them. 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.920 Oblivious to be comfortable, But get out of your comfort 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:56.840 zone when you're out and about and you're mingling with others. 0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:00.400 Some ties to fly. I mean showering in a the 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:03.080 hospital room. It's not your own. It's just Yeah, that's 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:05.760 just opportunistic, is what that is. Some weirdness. They had 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:08.000 a weird fetish is what that was going on. And 0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:10.240 what we did at the hospital was like, no, I 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:12.080 don't want to know what you did at the hospital. 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.760 Did you get healthy? That's what you want to Owensville 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:17.160 Richard was sterling and Donnadee on the Big One. How 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:18.960 dressed up do you need to be to fly to 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.920 travel or I guess to visit family and friends at 0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:22.640 the hospital. 0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:28.839 Well, I'll leave the hospital out. But when I was 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.600 a young fellow, when you flew and I'm in my 0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:38.200 mid sixties, you potentially could die. I mean, you know, 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:40.079 so you you wanted to look good. 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:46.400 I mean the queen underwear Mom always told me about exactly. 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:49.640 Yeah, you know, back in the days of prop planes 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:52.120 and stuff like that. Good Lord man, you want to 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:55.199 look good if you're potentially going to meet the Lord. 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:59.560 You know, if nothing else, it's a good excuse to 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:03.640 do a little, a little bit better exactly what we're talking. 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:08.760 Reason, damn it. And people ought to people ought to 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:13.200 take more advantage of looking good. I'm the one last thing. 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:18.040 The stewardess back when you called them that, I looked 0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:20.360 at her and I looked at the overhead and I said, 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:24.680 is that where you keep the parachutes? And she said, yes, honey, 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.800 that's where they are, just in case. 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:28.600 Well, I mean they got to get out quick. I 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:30.400 mean the rest of us behind. I don't know how 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:32.480 often that happens. Rich appreciate the comment. Are you having 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:34.280 a good Thanksgiving? You're on the road, what are you doing? 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:36.079 Well? 0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:41.040 Actually I just committed the guest of honor to the oven. Ah, 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:44.160 so uh you know, we'll be in good shape here. 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:46.720 Very good. Richard appreciate that. Thank you. He might have 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:48.800 been basting as we speak. That's multitasking. 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:50.280 Yes, oh, thank. 0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:52.800 You've never heard that way of putting it. The guest 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:54.640 of honor goes in the oven. 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:56.840 We didn't, and I failed there because I know if 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:58.960 it was a turkey bird, if it was a dog. 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:03.000 Well, it is called Turkey Day, so I'm guessing. I'm assuming, 0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:06.840 but it's turkey today. But you don't eat any turkey. 0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:09.080 Yes I do. I eat the faux turkey. 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:12.080 But I mean we have tons of stuff, like you know, 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:15.520 mashed potatoes and gravy and stuffing. I made stuffing, and 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.360 I made cornbread pudding which is gonna be amazing. And 0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:23.080 my sister makes the greatest sweet potatoes sou flet, and 0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:25.080 there's there's not a lack of. 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.640 Food that I can eat on Thanksgiving. 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:30.160 No guest of honor required, No, you are there will 0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:31.080 be at. 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:34.800 My nephew's house because half he's gonna he also works 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:37.040 with me, and he said, I'm gonna have three vegans, 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.520 two vegetarians, and a bunch of meat eaters, so it 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.360 will be an eclectic group of people for Thanksgiving. 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:46.040 That's balance as it should be. Yes, exactly, people you 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:48.920 care about five point three seven four nine eight hundred, 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.520 the big One Sterling, Donna Dee along for your Thanksgiving 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:54.080 Chack Crumbley with news. In about seven and a half minutes, 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:57.160 we got Liam producing and room for you. Want to 0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:00.200 know what you're doing this Thanksgiving? Traveling wise, wh you 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:03.160 flew home or whatever it is. However you're here, maybe 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.800 you're working too, because I know it's not just us. 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:09.440 I saw people gassing up. Gas prices are low, so 0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:11.840 a lot of people hitting the road. They say record numbers. 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:15.160 But traffic right now on the way in look great. 0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:18.160 It was no problem, even though Triple A says eighty 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:22.160 one point eight million Americans are projected to travel at 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:24.480 least fifty miles. I'm going to be one of them 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.600 because my name, my nephew lives in Springboro. 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:28.840 So you know, that's a little bit of a drive. Ye, 0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:31.800 a little bit of a drive, but I mean it's huge. 0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:33.600 That's a lot of people. That's like what fifteen twenty 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:35.240 percent of the population A little bit more. 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:37.120 Seventy three million drive in by. 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:41.160 Car, and they said about a million two million maybe 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.040 on train, but that doesn't affect most of us here. 0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:45.360 I guess six million flying. 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:48.080 I mean, you know, it's the long holiday weekend and 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:50.960 when you you know, this is a time where you 0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:53.280 do get to be with your family and friends a. 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:56.400 Little and hopefully you put the fun in the dysfunction 0:15:56.560 --> 0:15:59.560 in the family. After is any we'll talk on that, 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:03.440 we'll talk on side items. Also, some issues with wagering 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.520 in sports betting that the governor is wanting to adjust. 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:10.320 I guess freedom is not always meaning that we're free. 0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:13.960 That's all I'm gonna say. It's Sterling Donna d Thanksgiving. 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:16.400 Appreciate you being along. Grateful that you're here on the 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:18.800 Nation station with the Bengals and Ravens getting it on 0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:22.960 Thursday night, Prime time Turkey Night, seven hundred WLW you 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:25.080 got Have you ever seen a lot of turkey? Sterling 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:27.280 Don and d by the way, Thanksgiving seven hundred w 0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:32.120 WELW you don't think so? No, I mean they have 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:36.240 an odd neck and hence the turkey neck thing. Whatever. 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:39.040 I nearly drove off Interstate seventy when I was coming 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:43.000 back from Nevada this is years ago now, and a 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:46.080 car behind me in the truck and I'm rolling and 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:50.160 I had never seen this other than actually out in 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:54.120 the woods someplace, but just a long seventy around Saint Louis, 0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:57.600 there was a whole family herd flock. I don't know 0:16:57.600 --> 0:16:59.280 what you want to call it. It was a cluster 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:03.360 a turkey just rolling or you know, doing. They don't fly, 0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:06.000 you know, real well, anyway, they were just sort of 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:10.399 rolling along seventy next to it, and I'm staring at it, 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:13.119 and I literally drove off the road because I was bewildered. 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:14.560 It was like a whole family. 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:15.080 Yeah. 0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:20.800 I mean, they're not the cutest of animals, but they 0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:22.320 do have They're very smart. 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.440 All birds are real real smart. 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:27.639 Is the rumor that in anybody who knows the turkey 0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:30.520 would maybe be able to under share this. I remember 0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:32.600 as a kid my uncle told me the turkeys were 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:35.680 not the smartest bird for certain things. That if it's 0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:38.000 raining and they don't have shelter, they would just like 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:41.600 drown by looking up, which I think is crap, because 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:45.080 otherwise there'd be no wild turkeys because it rains occasionally 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:48.800 in the world and eventually they would just drown. Right, So, 0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:50.760 I mean, you think they were just messing with me or. 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:53.160 Yeah, I would think that that was like a wives tale. 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:55.160 Oh there was slipe hunting or something. 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:58.320 By the way, a group of turkeys can be called 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:02.480 several things, a rafter, a flock, a gaggle, or. 0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:06.600 A posse aposse. Let's call them a posse as makes 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:07.320 them sound. 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.879 Like there wasn't East St. Louis, but it was just 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:10.520 Saint Louis. 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:10.879 It was not. 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:14.360 I guess it was a posse. I was just freaked out. 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:16.480 Even now I can literally like it takes me right 0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:18.520 back there because I peripherally I saw him. What the 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.320 hell's that? And they did not look like the white 0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:25.320 like bread to be food bird. They were just out 0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:31.080 there living their turkey lives, which was pretty wild and 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:33.160 bread to be food well, because most of the lies 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:35.040 that you see that are for production of food. I 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.320 don't want to go to a scary, bad place, but 0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.000 for a lot of people, because people don't want to 0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:42.159 think about sometimes what we're eating. Although I know friends 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:44.359 who will go and they'll go to the farm and 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:46.639 they'll pick their bird and then they'll come back like 0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:48.639 there's there's whatever you want A number he is. I 0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:50.560 don't give them a name because that gets really awkward, 0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:54.359 and then they get them for you. Right. I've not 0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:56.880 done that, but I know people who have and most 0:18:56.960 --> 0:18:59.400 of those are not the birds that look wild. They're 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:02.280 they're more white, just like chickens. Often for big production 0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:05.080 for a food product don't look quite like that. Certainly 0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:11.159 don't big over chest flipped over bread to be big yeah, basted, Yeah, grind. 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:14.760 And one of the reasons why I don't indulge. 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:20.199 Now stuffing or dressing, it's it's a different animals literally 0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:23.400 and figuratively. But if you're not dealing with the bird 0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:26.320 itself where it's stuffed in, then it's dressing. And you 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:29.040 will have dressing at the house. Yeah, I call somefing, 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:30.440 but you're right, I mean, you're right. 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:33.000 There is a big difference between it because I'm not, 0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:35.119 you know, putting it in the cavity of a bird. 0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:38.960 But I make it and it tastes just as. 0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:44.680 You as every Yeah, favorite side item for Thanksgiving it's 0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:45.560 always going to be. 0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:49.680 For me mashed potatoes, but it's and gravy. You gotta 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:53.560 have gravy with mashed potatoes. But also, you know, my 0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:57.959 sister's sweet potato soufle is like nothing, like nothing else. 0:19:58.720 --> 0:19:59.400 It's so good. 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:00.000 I love it. 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:00.840 What about you? 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:04.359 I do? I mean, I like the meat products some 0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.600 people are for the ham. I like the turkey, but 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.560 I mean I've I've had the toefurky in the past 0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:12.160 or something like it. It was okay, I didn't even 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:13.800 realize what it was until I was told. Then I 0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:15.959 was freaked out, and then I was bothered that I 0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:17.080 was freaked out. 0:20:17.240 --> 0:20:20.200 They make it much better now, it's evolved a little bit. 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:25.440 The faam meats or whatever. Any unusual sides that you have, 0:20:25.480 --> 0:20:29.280 because I mean I don't I don't recall any kind 0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:32.640 of unusual side turnips. 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:36.000 Yeah, there's in any situation. I don't know about safe 0:20:36.119 --> 0:20:41.280 instance for things. I've never understood the rudebiger, Okay. I 0:20:41.320 --> 0:20:44.800 also don't understand rhubarb because it looks like celery, but 0:20:44.840 --> 0:20:46.639 it's sort of pinkish and red and people will make 0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:48.359 a pie out of it. Yet I don't know anyone 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:49.840 who goes I would like a celery. 0:20:50.240 --> 0:20:51.760 You got to put strawberries. 0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:54.640 My mom used to make strawberry rhubarb pie and it 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:57.160 was the best, was so good. 0:20:57.720 --> 0:20:59.800 You go for like a pie? Wise, do you like 0:20:59.840 --> 0:21:03.480 a con pie? Like a pecan is all time favorite, 0:21:03.600 --> 0:21:05.840 really all time favorite. If you have to choose, you 0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:08.920 go pumpkin pie? Do you go sweet potato pie, pumpkin 0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:12.360 pumpkin given a choice, but of course the pecan pie 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:15.320 precedes everything. Yeah, that's the number one. 0:21:15.400 --> 0:21:17.920 That is Okay, who's cooking at your house? 0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:21.480 Nobody tonight because I'm doing this. I'm gonna pick some 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:24.280 stuff up. This is all right, I'll tell you. So 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:26.520 here's the thing. I have one aunt who is gonna 0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:30.159 go to her husband's or late husband's side of the family. 0:21:30.960 --> 0:21:33.879 But there was a health issue, so they're not doing that. 0:21:33.880 --> 0:21:35.880 They're postponing it. So I'm going on the way home. 0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:37.600 She doesn't know yet. I'm gonna call and then like 0:21:37.640 --> 0:21:40.679 bring her some food, if her food, and then tomorrow. 0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:42.959 But I work tomorrow night, So tomorrow is a designated 0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:44.560 like Thanksgiving, okay for me? 0:21:44.680 --> 0:21:44.840 You know? 0:21:44.920 --> 0:21:48.040 Okay, yeah, I mean because otherwise what are you gonna do? 0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:50.680 It's just like the whole day sort of take yeah, yeah, 0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:52.480 and you know that's all right, and then it gives 0:21:52.520 --> 0:21:54.879 people other chances to like do their thing or whatever. 0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:58.320 But there'll be turkey. I think I'm doing turkey stuff. 0:21:58.440 --> 0:21:59.680 I don't think it'll be like it'll be like a 0:21:59.720 --> 0:22:03.120 turkey rest and a little bit of dressing, a little 0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:03.920 bit of mashed potato. 0:22:04.080 --> 0:22:08.640 Yeah, of course, I mean the whole kittens. 0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:08.800 That you do for Thanksgiving. 0:22:08.880 --> 0:22:11.399 By the way, Willie enjoying a nice day off.

So that's why Stirling A Donna are here. 0:22:16.400 --> 0:22:18.160 I said that in third person, which is very weird. 0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:20.000 I didn't mean to do that. That's why Donna's here, 0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:21.640 That's why I'm here, That's why all of us are 0:22:21.640 --> 0:22:23.919 here doing what we do.

Yeah, 0:22:43.119 --> 0:22:45.040 I'm not a fan. No, if you're gonna do that, 0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:46.159 give someone a heads up. 0:22:47.080 --> 0:22:49.040 It's pretty gross if you think about it. 0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:51.320 I know a lot of people like it and they 0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:52.520 think it adds flavor. 0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:54.439 But you can just put some salt in there and 0:22:54.480 --> 0:22:55.080 you'll be good. 0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:58.440 I prefer that. Yeah, sure, I mean is hearts there's 0:22:58.480 --> 0:23:01.440 a gizzard. Then there's sometimes the kidneys and stuff, and 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:04.200 then they'll be the neck and the next is really 0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:05.440 good if you cook up the next. 0:23:05.240 --> 0:23:09.000 Stuff you My mom used to do something with the 0:23:09.200 --> 0:23:13.640 giblets too, and we would all protest, please please do noting. 0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:15.280 It's not just me that makes me feel. 0:23:15.160 --> 0:23:17.639 No, none of my family members ever liked it. 0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:21.000 And she's French Canadians, so you know she was born 0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:24.680 she made beef Wellington and she would make all these. 0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:27.040 She was a great cook and an even better baker, 0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:30.800 and she would have just like the the little mini 0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:33.800 Cornish game hens for all of us. We'd all get 0:23:33.840 --> 0:23:37.399 our own on Thanksgiving. And that's like seven kids plus 0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:42.159 you know it's at birds. Those are pigmy birds. And 0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:44.280 I would be like, this is my own mind. I 0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:46.879 don't have to share it with anybody. It was so 0:23:47.080 --> 0:23:47.760 cool back then. 0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:50.000 Let's talk to Hank real quick and then we'll circle 0:23:50.040 --> 0:23:52.200 back to the Cornish hen thing, because that nearly made 0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:55.080 me vegan some years ago.

I guess generally speaking, overall. 0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:12.280 You know what's good at the every time listen people 0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:16.959 one of their biggest pastimes during the holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, 0:25:17.040 --> 0:25:19.360 going to see the movies. You know what's doing really 0:25:19.440 --> 0:25:20.800 well at the box office. 0:25:21.040 --> 0:25:22.120 What's that Wicked too? 0:25:22.280 --> 0:25:22.440 Oh? 0:25:22.520 --> 0:25:25.199 Yeah, you were telling me off the air because I am. 0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:29.960 I didn't expect to be like thinking this was something 0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:31.840 I wanted to see. My mother told me really a 0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:33.199 whole bit. She was like, oh, you'd love it, you 0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:35.000 love it, you love it. And she went to see 0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:38.440 the stage production downtown some years ago, and she said 0:25:38.480 --> 0:25:40.720 that it was so overwhelming. She has like vertigo problem 0:25:40.720 --> 0:25:43.240 that she was in that first balcony. She said she 0:25:43.240 --> 0:25:45.440 felt like she was going to fall over the balcony. 0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:48.800 So I was like, you know, that's exciting. I'm glad 0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:50.880 I'm not doing dealing with that. But you she made 0:25:50.920 --> 0:25:52.400 me think that the movie was going to be worth something, 0:25:52.440 --> 0:25:54.199 and you made it seem like I'd be interested in 0:25:54.200 --> 0:25:55.600 seeing the second half of this too. 0:25:55.760 --> 0:25:56.080 Well. 0:25:56.920 --> 0:25:58.960 I was surprised how much I liked the first one. 0:25:59.000 --> 0:26:01.760 I was on a plane, so I didn't I wasn't, 0:26:02.160 --> 0:26:04.720 you know, dying to go. I was all dressed up 0:26:04.760 --> 0:26:08.080 on the plane. I wasn't dying to go see Wicked, 0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:10.600 because you know, I didn't know that much about it. Man. 0:26:11.080 --> 0:26:13.520 That story is you know, you've heard the Wizard of 0:26:13.520 --> 0:26:15.320 Oz and all that stuff. But they put a spin 0:26:15.400 --> 0:26:19.479 on it where animals were professors at these universities and 0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:22.720 goats and they all spoke and everything, and so. 0:26:22.680 --> 0:26:25.200 I did so that humans are going to the animal university, 0:26:25.280 --> 0:26:26.960 or is it the animal university? 0:26:27.040 --> 0:26:31.200 It's humans were It was humans and animals mixed. It 0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:34.200 was like a whole other universe where animals were able 0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:37.760 to speak and educate, and you saw that the demise 0:26:37.920 --> 0:26:40.480 was coming. They were you know, they were saying, you're 0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.560 an animal, you're this and that, and and so it 0:26:43.640 --> 0:26:44.920 was the protection of those. 0:26:45.080 --> 0:26:46.640 It was very, very good. 0:26:47.000 --> 0:26:49.320 And I'm hearing nothing but good things on Wicked, too, 0:26:49.400 --> 0:26:50.320 So that's cool. 0:26:50.320 --> 0:26:51.760 I hope it's good. I mean, if I'm going to 0:26:51.800 --> 0:26:54.600 go sit in a theater to watch something that's nearly 0:26:54.640 --> 0:26:56.760 three hours or whatever it is, it better be good 0:26:56.840 --> 0:26:58.520 or I'm going to sneak out and go across the hall. 0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:00.880 Have you ever done that? 0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:04.359 Yes, of course, you hate a movie and you're like, no, 0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:05.720 this is not working. 0:27:06.000 --> 0:27:07.760 Got to go to the next one. So that's the other. 0:27:07.920 --> 0:27:09.399 That's the big one that. I mean, people love the 0:27:09.440 --> 0:27:12.080 holiday movies, any I'm just trying to figure out of 0:27:12.119 --> 0:27:15.159 all the holiday films that are related to Thanksgiving, I 0:27:15.160 --> 0:27:17.320 don't know that how how many are really like plane 0:27:17.359 --> 0:27:20.320 trains and automobiles. I think that was a Thanksgiving Conyes, 0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:20.880 it was. 0:27:20.880 --> 0:27:22.760 One of the biggest Thanksgiving movies ever. 0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:24.440 Any other that are just Thanksgiving. 0:27:24.520 --> 0:27:26.439 I mean they had that home for the holidays, and 0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:29.119 I think that was Thanksgiving. Robert Downey Junior was in it. 0:27:29.119 --> 0:27:33.960 But that was about dysfunctional family whose right and it 0:27:34.040 --> 0:27:37.479 was kind of a dark comedy. It wasn't like it 0:27:37.560 --> 0:27:41.840 wasn't given like all this fun family vibe, which everyone 0:27:42.040 --> 0:27:46.200 really wants. I mean, I think everybody really technically does 0:27:46.359 --> 0:27:49.639 want to get along with their family members. There's just 0:27:49.680 --> 0:27:52.639 sometimes it's not the easiest thing to do. 0:27:52.800 --> 0:27:55.119 It can be a challenge. So how do you navigate 0:27:55.200 --> 0:27:58.919 that in this situation, because I mean, can you just 0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:01.600 set it aside a side from the individual things, because 0:28:01.600 --> 0:28:05.080 your family and very close friends know what buttons and 0:28:05.119 --> 0:28:08.639 how to push those buttons exactly. But when you're getting 0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:12.199 together to have food and some fellowship and togetherness, and 0:28:12.240 --> 0:28:14.440 to be thankful for all these people in this life 0:28:14.520 --> 0:28:17.160 that we have. I mean, you would hope that you're 0:28:17.200 --> 0:28:19.639 not wanting to stir it up in a negative way. 0:28:19.840 --> 0:28:22.480 Of the year and put politics aside. 0:28:22.600 --> 0:28:26.160 Right That would be my number one piece of advice 0:28:26.359 --> 0:28:28.680 if somebody. Because I was at this friends giving thing 0:28:29.359 --> 0:28:33.359 downtown on Tuesday, which was lovely, and somebody started bringing 0:28:33.440 --> 0:28:35.840 up politics and I'm like, we're having fun. 0:28:36.640 --> 0:28:37.760 Why you have to go there? 0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:41.720 Because some people will do it deliberately to cause a riff. 0:28:42.200 --> 0:28:46.280 When I was younger, I would occasionally like to say 0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:49.480 something like a depth charge dropped off a navy vessel 0:28:49.480 --> 0:28:53.080 at sea, I say something, or right here, somebody else 0:28:53.080 --> 0:28:54.360 say something. Then I would sit. 0:28:54.280 --> 0:28:56.440 Back and watch the KOs. 0:28:56.480 --> 0:28:58.280 I kind of enjoyed that because you could say, oh, 0:28:58.320 --> 0:28:59.720 I know this is going to get that one. But 0:28:59.760 --> 0:29:02.080 I've grown now, I'm not really affect for. 0:29:02.040 --> 0:29:05.760 You because they don't want to be that way. And 0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:09.360 there's almost now there's a point where you can't stop 0:29:09.400 --> 0:29:14.560 yourself from putting your your A judgments on other people 0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:17.280 and be your opinions all over people, and if they 0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:20.120 don't agree, then there's an there's an argument there. 0:29:20.200 --> 0:29:21.080 That's what happens. 0:29:21.400 --> 0:29:26.160 Yeah, unfortunately, that's not a good recipe for the Thanksgiving 0:29:26.320 --> 0:29:27.440 dinner table. 0:29:27.680 --> 0:29:27.800 No. 0:29:28.360 --> 0:29:30.160 You know the other thing that you know, you think 0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:31.800 about this is like a lot of people may have 0:29:31.840 --> 0:29:34.680 started a day with Thanksgiving Day race here in Cincinnati, 0:29:34.720 --> 0:29:37.480 which has gone on for what one hundred and eighteen 0:29:37.600 --> 0:29:39.920 years I think since nineteen oh seven ones. Yeah, that's 0:29:39.920 --> 0:29:40.200 my base. 0:29:40.360 --> 0:29:41.320 I've done it twice. 0:29:42.360 --> 0:29:43.120 You didn't do it today. 0:29:43.280 --> 0:29:44.080 I did not know. 0:29:44.600 --> 0:29:46.840 And it's brisk so you don't get overheated, which is 0:29:46.920 --> 0:29:49.240 kind of nice. It's kind of perfect in that type 0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:51.640 of situation. But then you build up a little hunger, 0:29:51.680 --> 0:29:53.760 then you go stuff yourself with all those starches I 0:29:53.800 --> 0:29:55.400 just talked about. I mean it's really a made for 0:29:55.440 --> 0:29:57.560 the day kind of scenario where there was that the 0:29:57.640 --> 0:30:00.520 trot for like what five K ten K. I have 0:30:00.560 --> 0:30:04.120 a car, so I tend to not do these things. 0:30:04.160 --> 0:30:05.840 I do the short ones. One day. 0:30:06.600 --> 0:30:11.080 You walk your dog at least sometimes three five miles. 0:30:10.680 --> 0:30:13.400 Easy a day. Yeah right, not bad for a little 0:30:13.400 --> 0:30:16.840 fifteen pound guy with four short legs. But you know, 0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:19.520 a good dog is a tired dog. That's what I 0:30:19.520 --> 0:30:22.239 can tell you, that is for sure. Later James were 0:30:22.440 --> 0:30:24.760 going to talk Bengals Ravens. They're playing tonight. If you 0:30:24.840 --> 0:30:29.400 hadn't heard, they're in Baltimore and they had speaking of travel, 0:30:29.560 --> 0:30:31.760 they were stuck and they had to switch planes. They 0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:34.680 were supposed to leave like five hours earlier than what 0:30:34.720 --> 0:30:37.240 they ended up leaving while they were in Wait, what 0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:40.560 a nightmare. I mean, what do you do when you're 0:30:40.560 --> 0:30:43.080 delayed that much? If you're not I mean, because if 0:30:43.120 --> 0:30:45.520 you're at the airport, my experience would be to go 0:30:45.560 --> 0:30:48.240 get a drink and maybe some bad food. But if 0:30:48.760 --> 0:30:51.640 they're probably living a different life on their chartered aircraft. 0:30:51.920 --> 0:30:54.080 But you would also think a chartered aircraft wouldn't have 0:30:54.160 --> 0:30:55.080 that type of situation. 0:30:55.440 --> 0:31:00.520 Yeah, they do. I mean they also have issues with 0:31:02.120 --> 0:31:05.320 delayed planes and things like that. So yeah, I mean, 0:31:05.480 --> 0:31:07.520 the only thing you can do is just try and 0:31:07.560 --> 0:31:08.160 be patient. 0:31:08.280 --> 0:31:08.640 That's it. 0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:10.160 That's it. And the good news is it's not an 0:31:10.160 --> 0:31:12.880 early game. It's a late game, prime time kind of scenario. 0:31:13.000 --> 0:31:16.160 So they can still sleep, get adjusted, and you know, however, 0:31:16.160 --> 0:31:17.680 they eat and then they come home maybe and have 0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:21.320 their family Thanksgiving tomorrow or over the weekend. Yeah, I 0:31:21.440 --> 0:31:24.120 not a bad scenario. So hopefully they're all Okay. 0:31:23.960 --> 0:31:26.680 Lots of people work in, lots of sports people working today, 0:31:26.840 --> 0:31:29.240 lots of broadcasters today. 0:31:29.280 --> 0:31:32.920 First responders, first responders. There's some restaurants that are open 0:31:33.200 --> 0:31:35.680 and doing some food for people picking it up or whatever. 0:31:35.720 --> 0:31:37.760 I know some people got some stuff from Bob Evans 0:31:38.240 --> 0:31:40.320 just across the street, so I mean that's kind of 0:31:40.400 --> 0:31:44.640 nice too, right. And there's other workers. There's hospit urgent cares. 0:31:44.920 --> 0:31:48.640 I don't know about those, but certainly emergency rooms. And 0:31:48.760 --> 0:31:50.640 speaking of first responders, I have a cousin up in 0:31:50.880 --> 0:31:54.440 the Columbus area who's working today, doing his thing. Hopefully 0:31:54.480 --> 0:31:58.040 not busy. Hopefully it's just it like the firehouse, eating 0:31:58.080 --> 0:32:00.360 food and kicking back and having a good time, one 0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:04.720 would hope. So yeah, I think that's fairly clearest to 0:32:04.760 --> 0:32:06.840 what a lot of us are doing. Straight Away, you're 0:32:06.880 --> 0:32:09.800 one o'clock reporting nothing and what's going on from Jack Cromley. 0:32:09.840 --> 0:32:11.760 Maybe we'll hear from him a little bit later talk 0:32:12.000 --> 0:32:15.120 about their special showing of some holiday features and the 0:32:15.200 --> 0:32:17.680 Cincinnati Film Fest and all the other stuff that goes 0:32:17.720 --> 0:32:21.719 with that. Straight away news more Sterling, Donna d Thanksgiving, 0:32:21.760 --> 0:32:24.400 Glad you're along for our Bill Cunningham enjoying a nice 0:32:24.440 --> 0:32:26.800 day off. It's Willy's time with Sterling and Donna De 0:32:26.920 --> 0:32:29.040 on the home of the best Bengals coverage, news Radio 0:32:29.080 --> 0:32:32.600 seven hundred WLW, Cincinnatair. Willie enjoying a day off. A 0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:35.160 lot of other people are hopefully with family and friends, 0:32:36.120 --> 0:32:39.080 enjoying some good grubbing stuff at Sterling Donna De over there, 0:32:39.080 --> 0:32:39.560 how you doing. 0:32:39.720 --> 0:32:40.160 I'm good. 0:32:40.800 --> 0:32:43.400 I'm happy to be on air with you today. I'm 0:32:43.880 --> 0:32:46.240 getting off it too, so forty. 0:32:46.000 --> 0:32:48.280 Five minutes, Yeah, I appreciate you coming in for a 0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:49.920 little while. Then I rolled to All four and the 0:32:50.040 --> 0:32:53.120 Moe comes up after us Bengals on the roads after 0:32:53.160 --> 0:32:55.760 spending it in a really ridiculous amount of time for 0:32:55.840 --> 0:32:58.000 an aircraft to have to be switched out before they 0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:00.800 got to Baltimore. Got in late, but thankfully it's a 0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:05.320 primetime Thanksgiving game with Joe Burrow back behind time. 0:33:05.160 --> 0:33:06.800 The Bengals played on Thanksgiving. 0:33:07.480 --> 0:33:09.200 Dude, I have no one, it was a long I 0:33:09.280 --> 0:33:11.280 have to look that up. I mean that's a Lance 0:33:11.320 --> 0:33:13.040 thing like right now, it's just in his role of 0:33:13.120 --> 0:33:17.840 decks of knowledge right now. Yeah, you take a look 0:33:17.840 --> 0:33:20.719 at that and see it's been a minute Burrow hasn't. 0:33:20.760 --> 0:33:22.440 That's one of the things that you'll hear him talk 0:33:22.480 --> 0:33:24.920 about a little bit later in the news and so forth, 0:33:25.040 --> 0:33:27.280 is the fact that he was pretty geeked up and 0:33:27.320 --> 0:33:29.920 excited to be able to play on Thanksgiving because a 0:33:29.920 --> 0:33:31.960 lot of us, I mean growing up player or not 0:33:32.040 --> 0:33:35.560 a player, watching all those turkey legs being given away 0:33:35.560 --> 0:33:37.520 in the Love from Madden back in the day, and 0:33:37.520 --> 0:33:39.200 then of course all those games, but it was always 0:33:39.280 --> 0:33:43.880 like the Lions, the Packers, it seemed like Cowboys, and 0:33:43.920 --> 0:33:47.240 then some rainomother a lot of Bears games too, I 0:33:47.280 --> 0:33:50.480 think if I remember correctly, overall for Thanksgiving. So yeah, 0:33:50.640 --> 0:33:53.440 he's excited and hopefully well rested and ready to go. 0:33:54.400 --> 0:33:58.600 A lot of other people today getting ready for Black 0:33:58.600 --> 0:34:01.360 Friday shopping and everything to go along with that, and 0:34:01.400 --> 0:34:04.800 some people throwing some money around because it's America. And 0:34:04.960 --> 0:34:08.200 finally freedom and liberty to decide if you want to 0:34:08.239 --> 0:34:10.440 bet on the Bengals or you want to bet on 0:34:10.800 --> 0:34:14.040 the I mean a pick a team, whatever it is, 0:34:14.080 --> 0:34:16.040 and a lot of parlays. The governor in the last 0:34:16.120 --> 0:34:18.000 day or so has gotten a lot of attention here 0:34:18.000 --> 0:34:21.919 in Ohio. Mike the Wine, of course, who actually put 0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:26.440 pen to paper after the people of this state voted 0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:30.200 to allow sports betting, and now is saying he's apparently 0:34:30.239 --> 0:34:32.400 not a fan of the sports betting, in particular the 0:34:32.440 --> 0:34:36.080 parlays that apparently make it more interesting, so that he 0:34:36.160 --> 0:34:39.080 wants to somehow get with lawmakers and put the kaibash 0:34:39.160 --> 0:34:41.479 at least on part of it. I guess the fear 0:34:41.520 --> 0:34:43.920 is that people can control themselves, so he has to 0:34:43.960 --> 0:34:46.560 be you know, everybody wants to protect everybody from themselves. 0:34:48.000 --> 0:34:52.919 Well, I mean I kind of agree, because that's why 0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:57.000 we you know, that's why drinking and driving, their laws 0:34:57.040 --> 0:35:01.359 against that and and that kind of stuff. Imagine if 0:35:01.480 --> 0:35:04.440 you know you, let's say you and I were married, Sterling, 0:35:04.440 --> 0:35:05.839 and we had two kids. 0:35:06.040 --> 0:35:08.759 And you had a betting. 0:35:09.120 --> 0:35:14.080 Problem, right, Yeah, a gambling issue, and yeah you were 0:35:14.120 --> 0:35:17.720 taking the money and from our family, and you weren't 0:35:17.760 --> 0:35:20.839 being one hundred percent honest about it. If there are 0:35:20.920 --> 0:35:24.160 laws of that type of nature, it's for the family. 0:35:24.320 --> 0:35:25.920 So I kind of understand that. 0:35:26.000 --> 0:35:30.520 But this is America, and it's unfortunate that this fake 0:35:30.719 --> 0:35:33.240 family that the two of us would have at this point, 0:35:33.280 --> 0:35:37.160 with little Sterling and don Ch in fact that somehow 0:35:37.360 --> 0:35:39.279 and I like how you it wasn't you who had 0:35:39.320 --> 0:35:41.799 the problem. It would be me and this spectitious make 0:35:41.840 --> 0:35:45.759 belief situation, and to protect you and the kids from me, 0:35:46.040 --> 0:35:50.680 the horrible bad choice addicted, I'm chasing that action that 0:35:50.840 --> 0:35:52.120 I would be the problem. 0:35:52.520 --> 0:35:54.799 Uh you could see the writing on the walls. Yeah, 0:35:54.920 --> 0:35:58.160 it's true, honest about it, Jones. Sometimes you need that 0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:02.800 action sometimes. But who is the governor or the government 0:36:02.960 --> 0:36:05.719 to say as long? I mean, why can't I do 0:36:05.800 --> 0:36:08.879 what I want? Well, that may be up to you, 0:36:09.000 --> 0:36:11.600 the significant other in the family, who may suffer for 0:36:11.960 --> 0:36:14.800 the of this, you know, addiction or just a losing 0:36:14.800 --> 0:36:15.760 streak or whatever. 0:36:16.160 --> 0:36:17.959 But I mean that's up to you. If I sat 0:36:18.000 --> 0:36:22.239 around and just bought video games or books out the wazoo, 0:36:22.280 --> 0:36:24.359 if you will, to the point of blowing all kinds 0:36:24.360 --> 0:36:24.720 of money. 0:36:24.760 --> 0:36:27.279 Oh, there are shopaholics for sure. I mean, we just 0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:29.239 talked about Black Friday. There's gonna be a lot of 0:36:29.239 --> 0:36:31.640 people that drop a lot of coin on that and 0:36:31.680 --> 0:36:34.560 maybe not even tell the spouse and stuff like that, 0:36:34.840 --> 0:36:37.680 which is why you need to have your own banks, separate, 0:36:38.080 --> 0:36:43.520 separate bank accounts exactly for month for bills and stuff, 0:36:43.880 --> 0:36:46.680 so that you don't get yourself in that kind of situation. 0:36:47.160 --> 0:36:49.480 I mean, many people can disagree, but a lot of 0:36:49.480 --> 0:36:52.879 financial advisors will say, have your own money, and that's 0:36:52.920 --> 0:36:55.640 that's super important, so that one person is not in 0:36:55.719 --> 0:37:01.399 charge and knows everything. But I do understand secrets. There 0:37:01.440 --> 0:37:03.799 are some people can't get out of their own way. 0:37:03.840 --> 0:37:06.960 You would agree with that. Some people have problems with 0:37:07.280 --> 0:37:10.919 free will, but it's free will. But sometimes people need 0:37:11.160 --> 0:37:13.520 a pat on the back and said, hey, you're doing 0:37:13.560 --> 0:37:14.200 too much. 0:37:14.280 --> 0:37:16.799 And the government needs to do that. Why is the 0:37:16.840 --> 0:37:20.400 government in the place to tell us? I mean, it 0:37:20.600 --> 0:37:23.320 just seems we need people to step in it. It 0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:26.439 just seems like such an overreach. And I understand people 0:37:26.520 --> 0:37:28.480 are scared of it and it's a vice and it's 0:37:28.520 --> 0:37:30.840 an easy thing because there are people who you know, 0:37:30.880 --> 0:37:34.640 it doesn't go well. But that's again about freedom and 0:37:34.719 --> 0:37:38.200 choice and liberty and not about a nanny state trying 0:37:38.239 --> 0:37:39.840 to tell us how to live our lives. 0:37:40.560 --> 0:37:44.640 Well, yes, I agree, but there's needs to be some 0:37:44.640 --> 0:37:47.480 some some laws that we have to abide by in 0:37:47.520 --> 0:37:50.840 this country. I mean, you know, if somebody keeps getting 0:37:50.880 --> 0:37:53.279 four or five duys and they haven't. 0:37:53.120 --> 0:37:57.680 Learned right, But that's the general public because they're on 0:37:57.719 --> 0:38:00.719 the road taking a chance on I mean every day, 0:38:00.760 --> 0:38:02.640 just earlier in the news you hear about somebody else 0:38:02.680 --> 0:38:06.200 who crashed a car, escaped and ran away, and there's 0:38:06.200 --> 0:38:08.520 a lot of these runs over like, I mean that 0:38:08.520 --> 0:38:11.480 that is a serious ongoing for every day in the news, 0:38:11.680 --> 0:38:15.400 there's it has been yeah, of a pedestrian or a 0:38:15.440 --> 0:38:17.520 vehicle issue or something. I love the way they're written 0:38:17.560 --> 0:38:19.879 by the way vehicle, human strike or a person strike. 0:38:20.040 --> 0:38:22.560 You mean you got hit by a car, just say it. 0:38:22.960 --> 0:38:24.879 But but I mean there's a scheme of things though. 0:38:25.000 --> 0:38:27.760 The drunken drug driving thing is because it's a general 0:38:27.840 --> 0:38:30.680 public threat. If you want to drink yourself or drug 0:38:30.719 --> 0:38:33.200 yourself to death and your privacy of your own home 0:38:33.280 --> 0:38:35.480 and in your life, then go about it. Blow through 0:38:35.520 --> 0:38:38.279 your cash and ruin your life, smoke your cracks so 0:38:38.360 --> 0:38:39.719 your teeth fall out of your head. I mean, I 0:38:39.719 --> 0:38:41.719 don't really want you to do that, yeah, but I 0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:43.560 mean it's America. You should be free to do it. 0:38:43.560 --> 0:38:46.560 I'm thankful that most people don't have those problems. But 0:38:46.640 --> 0:38:49.240 Mike de Wine or any other governor, or the president 0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:52.000 or anybody else, or even me, if I decide I 0:38:52.040 --> 0:38:54.600 don't like how you're living and you're making bad choices. Donna, 0:38:54.840 --> 0:38:56.560 Who am I to tell you, even if we're in 0:38:56.600 --> 0:38:58.960 a relationship, I may tell you. But if you want 0:38:58.960 --> 0:39:01.080 to do your thing, then and do your thing, and 0:39:01.120 --> 0:39:02.640 I'll take our kids and go away. 0:39:02.760 --> 0:39:06.760 Because there's a ripple effect. Okay, you take our kids and. 0:39:07.280 --> 0:39:07.960 Is out of control. 0:39:10.960 --> 0:39:12.600 I'm the one boozing on the couch. 0:39:13.400 --> 0:39:15.560 Try we're gonna go play the pony. 0:39:16.000 --> 0:39:18.680 But there is exactly. 0:39:18.760 --> 0:39:20.480 But I used to know with my uncle, it was 0:39:20.480 --> 0:39:22.480 a great time. Go to the window. I'd reach up 0:39:22.480 --> 0:39:24.120 my uncle want to put three on five? 0:39:24.320 --> 0:39:24.520 Oh? 0:39:24.640 --> 0:39:25.359 We used to go. 0:39:25.520 --> 0:39:27.960 We used to go bet highlight in Florida, which was 0:39:28.000 --> 0:39:28.840 so super fun. 0:39:28.920 --> 0:39:31.960 But you know, I would do it once a month 0:39:32.200 --> 0:39:33.600 or once every six month. 0:39:33.640 --> 0:39:33.680 Me. 0:39:33.760 --> 0:39:35.600 You know, it's the same thing when I go to Vegas, 0:39:35.680 --> 0:39:38.840 I'll bet so I luckily do not have a problem 0:39:38.840 --> 0:39:42.080 with that. But it is a ripple effect in society 0:39:42.160 --> 0:39:46.600 because guess what that person that's on crack or what 0:39:46.880 --> 0:39:49.600 you suggested, go and kill yourself in your own house 0:39:49.640 --> 0:39:51.080 if that's what you want to do. 0:39:51.360 --> 0:39:54.960 The buy over indulgence, I don't just mean sounded so bad. 0:39:55.040 --> 0:39:57.759 By the way, call the hotline about. 0:39:57.480 --> 0:39:59.839 That buy over indulgence. 0:40:00.160 --> 0:40:03.720 Guess what, he's gonna need money somewhere, and he's gonna 0:40:03.760 --> 0:40:06.080 go down to the neighbors and the and the people. 0:40:06.120 --> 0:40:11.439 And it's a ripple effect when you're out of control somebody. 0:40:12.120 --> 0:40:14.920 If that means that the government can help in terms 0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:19.000 of like this check ins or you know with your kids, 0:40:19.040 --> 0:40:21.840 you do you do in home check ins and visits 0:40:21.840 --> 0:40:24.799 and things like that, there needs to be somebody that 0:40:24.840 --> 0:40:27.360 can help someone otherwise that person is just going to 0:40:27.440 --> 0:40:28.560 be wild in the streets. 0:40:28.600 --> 0:40:30.600 So you should out.

And we got Joe burrowback, so. 0:41:25.440 --> 0:41:27.439 Yeah, we'll see how it goes. He's geeked up to play. 0:41:27.560 --> 0:41:29.879 Hopefully that toad will do him right, that line will 0:41:29.920 --> 0:41:32.000 protect him and they'll go at it and a lot. 0:41:31.880 --> 0:41:34.880 Of people betting on the games, yeah, will exactly. 0:41:34.920 --> 0:41:37.360 So what about this? Should the government then say, you what, 0:41:37.520 --> 0:41:42.040 no parlays or any other particular method or manner in 0:41:42.080 --> 0:41:44.920 which to put money on the line in wager. Should 0:41:44.920 --> 0:41:47.120 it be up to the state. I thought we voted though, 0:41:47.360 --> 0:41:48.840 but you know what, they did the same thing with 0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:50.919 the legal weed there you like, you know what, Yes, 0:41:51.000 --> 0:41:54.799 we don't really think you the public are capable of 0:41:54.800 --> 0:41:58.120 making decisions for yourself. We're thankful that you're taking part 0:41:58.160 --> 0:42:01.239 in the process. Know better. 0:42:02.680 --> 0:42:03.240 There today. 0:42:03.360 --> 0:42:06.640 I just I that's that's the thing, you know. And 0:42:06.680 --> 0:42:09.160 I like to throw some money around here or there 0:42:09.200 --> 0:42:12.759 on occasion. I don't think I have a problem with it, uh, 0:42:13.320 --> 0:42:15.239 but I try to keep it in check. And if 0:42:15.280 --> 0:42:17.400 I were to get out of control and you know, 0:42:17.480 --> 0:42:20.399 give away all my money in that situation, then then 0:42:20.560 --> 0:42:24.080 it's unfortunate. But that's my choice. Whether if I wanted 0:42:24.080 --> 0:42:26.279 to go buy frozen pizzas and fill the you know, 0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:30.319 the freezer in the garage and in the house, and 0:42:30.440 --> 0:42:32.880 I just wanted to sit there and be a glutton 0:42:32.960 --> 0:42:34.360 and just pound pizzas. 0:42:34.560 --> 0:42:37.120 And so what do we do with someone like you? 0:42:37.239 --> 0:42:39.719 As in society? What do we do? 0:42:39.800 --> 0:42:42.600 People have been trying to figure that out for years? 0:42:43.040 --> 0:42:46.640 What do they? Then I become a cautionarytail and a 0:42:46.680 --> 0:42:48.839 statistic and then you go, don't be like that guy. 0:42:49.000 --> 0:42:51.680 But then you're gonna be on government services, and you're 0:42:51.680 --> 0:42:53.920 gonna not have a family, and you're gonna still be 0:42:53.960 --> 0:42:56.640 addicted to gambling, and you won't have a job because 0:42:56.680 --> 0:42:57.240 you won't. 0:42:57.000 --> 0:42:59.440 Have America it's your choice. Then you get it together. 0:42:59.520 --> 0:43:01.760 You see, Tony, our. 0:43:01.719 --> 0:43:04.200 Problem, that's what I'm saying. Eventually it will be all 0:43:04.239 --> 0:43:04.880 of our problem. 0:43:05.160 --> 0:43:05.600 I see. 0:43:05.800 --> 0:43:05.880 So. 0:43:06.360 --> 0:43:09.560 Uh so government's going to be in it no matter what. Wow, 0:43:09.600 --> 0:43:11.400 that's what I what you're saying. You did go to 0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:12.120 that place, didn't you. 0:43:12.200 --> 0:43:14.480 Let's get Mike and then ed was Sterling and Donnade 0:43:14.520 --> 0:43:16.520 on this Thanksgiving Glad you're listening to being a part 0:43:16.560 --> 0:43:18.319 of the show. We're grateful for you being here. Mike, 0:43:18.360 --> 0:43:21.160 what do you think is the government responsible for protecting 0:43:21.200 --> 0:43:24.000 us from ourselves with our wagers that they find to 0:43:24.080 --> 0:43:27.040 be maybe a little bit too much, or is done 0:43:27.040 --> 0:43:28.839 all right that somebody has to save us? 0:43:29.920 --> 0:43:32.000 No, I don't think the government should any say so. 0:43:32.520 --> 0:43:37.480 It's micromanagement and that's uh, that's you know, they there's ridiculous, 0:43:37.520 --> 0:43:41.800 there's they don't they may step there and have recovery 0:43:41.800 --> 0:43:44.759 programs like it. You know, like you said, you know 0:43:45.000 --> 0:43:46.760 you care how many pizza's gut in the fridge? 0:43:46.840 --> 0:43:47.000 You know. 0:43:48.400 --> 0:43:51.840 Yeah, So so you're saying it's much you agree with Sterling. 0:43:53.080 --> 0:43:54.680 That's I'm all the way, King Sterling. 0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:57.680 There one of them. 0:43:59.760 --> 0:44:02.120 There, there's gonna be there's gonna be a point where 0:44:02.200 --> 0:44:05.960 If that's the case, eventually someone will step in anyway, don't. 0:44:05.800 --> 0:44:09.680 You agree, Well, you know then that's going to be 0:44:09.719 --> 0:44:11.560 the people that need to step That could be family, 0:44:11.600 --> 0:44:13.800 it could be somebody that he knows, some money import 0:44:13.920 --> 0:44:16.560 to him, somebody that you know, some type of intervention 0:44:16.680 --> 0:44:19.520 type thing. Not not the government saying that, you know, hey, 0:44:19.520 --> 0:44:22.120 what are you doing. You're spending your money the way 0:44:22.120 --> 0:44:24.160 We don't want you to spend your money like, you 0:44:24.200 --> 0:44:27.160 know what, just this is my money.

You got you got a favorite side 0:44:33.800 --> 0:44:35.720 item mind, or maybe you're a fan of the giblet. 0:44:35.760 --> 0:44:36.840 I don't get the giblet. 0:44:38.320 --> 0:44:40.160 You know, I'm kind of a fan of the pizza. 0:44:40.239 --> 0:44:43.560 There's a little one dollar thirty minute pizza. 0:44:43.680 --> 0:44:47.320 Those are great, they are, they really are. I'm telling you, 0:44:47.320 --> 0:44:49.520 you just made me smile. I was so excited about that, Mike. 0:44:49.560 --> 0:44:51.759 I appreciate the call. Man. Thank you all. R Let's 0:44:51.760 --> 0:44:55.360 get to ed talking about freedom and liberty and a 0:44:55.400 --> 0:44:58.879 government overreach on this Thanksgiving unthankful day care. But who 0:44:58.960 --> 0:45:00.920 was the government to tell you you or me Ed 0:45:01.040 --> 0:45:03.520 or Donna de for that matter, or are Willie who 0:45:03.520 --> 0:45:06.040 we're filling in for this Thanksgiving Day, And we certainly 0:45:06.040 --> 0:45:09.279 appreciate his guidance, but you know, just say you can't 0:45:09.320 --> 0:45:11.160 bet on this or you can't bet on that because 0:45:11.200 --> 0:45:14.080 it's just too volatile. When you're you're a loser, who 0:45:14.200 --> 0:45:15.239 is the government to tell you? 0:45:16.960 --> 0:45:20.200 I agree, the government needs to get out of the way. However, 0:45:20.800 --> 0:45:24.880 the wine was specifically talking about prop bets, right, and 0:45:25.080 --> 0:45:30.160 the two Guardian pitchers come to mind, because they were 0:45:30.200 --> 0:45:33.720 making money. Somebody was making money off them throwing bad pitches. 0:45:35.120 --> 0:45:41.319 But yeah, the government just needs to just check out. 0:45:41.600 --> 0:45:43.360 I get where the wine coming from. 0:45:43.400 --> 0:45:46.160 But is that an overreachion? 0:45:48.000 --> 0:45:50.440 I think it's too intrusive. I mean, I understand they 0:45:50.440 --> 0:45:52.279 may think the parlay doesn't do well for you, but 0:45:52.280 --> 0:45:54.279 if somebody want to bet, wants to bet on the 0:45:54.280 --> 0:45:58.520 most you know, weird things put together in a parlay scenario, 0:45:58.960 --> 0:46:01.359 it's not necessarily the smartest bed for them. But again 0:46:01.440 --> 0:46:02.000 it's choice. 0:46:02.120 --> 0:46:04.319 I do agree with Ed because the prop bets are 0:46:04.320 --> 0:46:09.560 the ones where they're seeing the illegal weirdness. Yes, and 0:46:09.560 --> 0:46:12.520 and and and and get betting on you know, those 0:46:12.560 --> 0:46:15.480 types of things illegal betting and things like that. 0:46:15.600 --> 0:46:16.920 So I get that as much. 0:46:16.800 --> 0:46:19.399 So do you think there should be any limit on that? 0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:21.960 I mean, just you're okay with maybe them pulling out 0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.759 the parlay is an option or I just wonder where 0:46:24.760 --> 0:46:27.120 it stops. I mean, it's not like we're betting on like, 0:46:27.239 --> 0:46:30.479 you know, homeless people fighting like bum fights. That would 0:46:30.520 --> 0:46:33.319 be abusive of the homeless. It's not like we're you know, 0:46:33.360 --> 0:46:36.040 trying you throwing food out to the home the homeless 0:46:36.040 --> 0:46:38.560 and the hungary and seeing them battle for some stuffing 0:46:38.560 --> 0:46:41.880 in turkey legs. That that would be abusive and morally 0:46:41.920 --> 0:46:44.400 bankrupt and wrong. But if I want to give my 0:46:44.480 --> 0:46:46.799 money away by wagering, it's America. Let me just do 0:46:46.840 --> 0:46:47.400 what I wanted. 0:46:49.000 --> 0:46:52.760 Well, the thing is is, you know, with the MLB, 0:46:53.760 --> 0:46:57.360 it's it's you know, they've already proven to be losers. 0:46:57.400 --> 0:47:01.360 Go back to the black socks and be has already 0:47:01.360 --> 0:47:03.759 been busted before with the bad reps. 0:47:03.440 --> 0:47:04.120 And what have you. 0:47:04.600 --> 0:47:07.120 Guy you know saying I'm coming up lame. I got 0:47:07.160 --> 0:47:10.040 my ten points in or less, and somebody's gonna make 0:47:10.120 --> 0:47:13.239 money off me. But the NFL, I think, is a 0:47:13.320 --> 0:47:16.319 little different because those guys, they go out there to 0:47:16.480 --> 0:47:18.759 want to win the Super Bowl. They go out there 0:47:18.840 --> 0:47:21.960 put their bodies on the line every week to do 0:47:22.040 --> 0:47:24.960 what they love to do, and I just I think 0:47:25.160 --> 0:47:26.360 NFL is a little different. 0:47:26.840 --> 0:47:28.959 It might be, you know, I think all those guys 0:47:28.960 --> 0:47:30.600 maybe want to win and appreciate to call me a 0:47:30.640 --> 0:47:35.719 happy Thanksgiving. But I mean, whether it's the app on 0:47:35.760 --> 0:47:38.400 my phone that's legal, or it's the guy in the 0:47:38.440 --> 0:47:41.560 neighborhood or somebody else that you have like an account 0:47:41.600 --> 0:47:44.080 with who may not be above board but will take 0:47:44.120 --> 0:47:46.879 that parlay bet, it's going to be happening anyway. It's 0:47:46.960 --> 0:47:49.480 just not as easy in quick turnaround as it is 0:47:49.520 --> 0:47:51.480 in your hand or on your wrist or in your 0:47:51.480 --> 0:47:53.960 tablet or something like that. I get that part of it, 0:47:54.480 --> 0:47:55.160 But what do you do. 0:47:56.040 --> 0:48:00.000 You don't make it so easy to bet on those bets. 0:48:00.440 --> 0:48:02.840 That's why you don't make it that. Don't make it 0:48:02.880 --> 0:48:03.520 a little bit harder. 0:48:05.360 --> 0:48:09.160 I mean, you want to talk about gambling, gambling and 0:48:09.200 --> 0:48:12.080 there's all kinds of weird manipulation and everything that goes 0:48:12.080 --> 0:48:14.360 with that, and you start talking about bitcoin and the 0:48:14.360 --> 0:48:17.239 evaluations with that and currency just in general, it's just 0:48:17.280 --> 0:48:20.560 a different type of gambling. Yeah, hanging on, Josh, we'll 0:48:20.560 --> 0:48:22.600 get you in just a minute to come. We got 0:48:22.640 --> 0:48:24.239 time with it, four or five, No, we got we 0:48:24.239 --> 0:48:26.319 gotta stop, Yeah, we gotta stop. We gotta take care 0:48:26.360 --> 0:48:28.200 of some things. It's sterling a Donna d and for 0:48:28.280 --> 0:48:30.600 our Willie on a Thanksgiving.

Should they 0:48:40.080 --> 0:48:42.960 outlaw the betting of the parlay or otherwise, who is 0:48:43.120 --> 0:48:46.239 Governor DeWine or any other government type person to tell 0:48:46.280 --> 0:48:50.440 you me, Donna, Willie Lance or even Sloany not to 0:48:50.480 --> 0:48:54.720 throw their money around.

Jack Crumley 0:49:05.360 --> 0:49:07.520 with news. You know what's hard is we've been breaking 0:49:07.560 --> 0:49:10.560 right before the news and then he's doing news. So 0:49:10.560 --> 0:49:13.320 we can't really have ask him, you know, hey, do 0:49:13.320 --> 0:49:15.480 you want to come talk about the movies and stuff 0:49:15.480 --> 0:49:16.560 with us? So we have to figure out how to 0:49:16.600 --> 0:49:19.320 do that before you go. It's short order or next time. 0:49:19.760 --> 0:49:21.120 Well, I wanted Jack to come on. 0:49:21.200 --> 0:49:25.480 They've got like this really cool event they're doing Jacket, And. 0:49:25.440 --> 0:49:27.400 Then what happens if he doesn't come? You want me 0:49:27.400 --> 0:49:28.920 to do it, I'm gonna do it. I could call 0:49:29.000 --> 0:49:30.120 and we could do it on the air. I don't 0:49:30.120 --> 0:49:32.000 know if he's listening and the other he's gathering news. 0:49:34.400 --> 0:49:37.279 He is working just like we are today, just like 0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:42.080 many people are today, from flight attendance to airport people, 0:49:42.160 --> 0:49:44.160 a lot of transportation, bus. 0:49:44.080 --> 0:49:49.960 Drivers, ubers and lifts and convenience stores, gas stations, first responders, 0:49:50.040 --> 0:49:52.720 a cousin who's doing that right now. Hopefully he's bored. 0:49:53.200 --> 0:49:55.239 That's the good thing. You don't want the first responders 0:49:55.239 --> 0:49:57.279 to be like so busy that they can't relax. You 0:49:57.320 --> 0:50:00.680 want him at the firehouse or wherever they are, getting 0:50:00.880 --> 0:50:04.160 fat and sassy with good food, and then when you 0:50:04.160 --> 0:50:05.840 need them, they'll be there, not hopped up on the 0:50:06.200 --> 0:50:07.880 or doped up on the trip to fan. That's the 0:50:07.880 --> 0:50:10.359 thing that people get with the turkey, is that they 0:50:10.360 --> 0:50:12.680 get like the sleepies? Yeah, or I don't know, I've 0:50:12.719 --> 0:50:14.719 never said that. You never heard of anyone say the 0:50:14.719 --> 0:50:18.799 sleepiest's weird? It really was, I clearly am not right. 0:50:18.880 --> 0:50:20.959 Let's get to Fairfield. Josh has been holding for a while. 0:50:21.040 --> 0:50:23.440 Joshua was sterling in DNA DA on this Thanksgiving. Appreciate 0:50:23.480 --> 0:50:25.319 you being here. What were you calling about it? Because 0:50:25.520 --> 0:50:27.879 you've been you stretched through two different things, whether we're 0:50:27.880 --> 0:50:30.200 talking about the gambling and the governor wanting to keep 0:50:30.239 --> 0:50:32.080 us from being able to make bets on our own 0:50:32.160 --> 0:50:35.320 choice or maybe side items or what what do you 0:50:35.360 --> 0:50:35.759 got going? 0:50:36.200 --> 0:50:36.520 Well? 0:50:37.000 --> 0:50:42.280 First off, happy banksgiving guyssgiving nice dumb, fat and happy 0:50:42.320 --> 0:50:42.880 on turkeys. 0:50:43.080 --> 0:50:45.600 And I don't know. 0:50:45.680 --> 0:50:48.200 I don't think that the government should be in our 0:50:48.200 --> 0:50:51.480 business as far as who's gambling, who's doing what? But 0:50:51.800 --> 0:50:54.360 I see the issue as more of an accessibility issue 0:50:54.400 --> 0:50:57.680 because if you really think about it, back in the 0:50:57.960 --> 0:51:00.279 like I'm forty three, but back in the eight these, 0:51:00.400 --> 0:51:03.400 the nineties, even the two thousands, up until two thousand 0:51:03.400 --> 0:51:04.799 and eight, two thousand and nine, if you really think 0:51:04.800 --> 0:51:07.920 about it, online gambling wasn't an accessible thing. You had 0:51:07.960 --> 0:51:09.440 to go to a casino, you had to go to 0:51:09.600 --> 0:51:13.200 a horse racing track, You had to physically. 0:51:12.680 --> 0:51:13.480 Go to these things. 0:51:13.520 --> 0:51:16.799 But now with smartphones and technology, you can literally just 0:51:17.040 --> 0:51:20.280 gamble from your house and never have to leave and never. 0:51:20.120 --> 0:51:20.840 Have to do anything. 0:51:21.560 --> 0:51:24.800 So I think, yeah, I mean, it can be a miracle, 0:51:24.800 --> 0:51:27.080 but it's a double edged sword. I think of how 0:51:27.080 --> 0:51:30.120 many parents have gotten so angry at a kids or 0:51:30.160 --> 0:51:32.600 have lost so much money because they get on their 0:51:32.640 --> 0:51:35.480 phone and download a game and then start clicking and 0:51:35.680 --> 0:51:38.560 game buys that they have to take, and. 0:51:38.520 --> 0:51:41.160 Then the mom's out six seven hundred dollars. So I mean, 0:51:41.520 --> 0:51:43.799 the system is set up, the algorithms are set up 0:51:43.840 --> 0:51:46.359 to maybe I want more, I want more, I want more. 0:51:46.719 --> 0:51:50.440 But when you have that so accessible, that's the only 0:51:50.600 --> 0:51:53.560 regulatory thing that I think would need to happen is 0:51:54.000 --> 0:51:57.400 how is it accessible and how that will affect someone 0:51:57.760 --> 0:52:00.520 having the ability to waste their money on it, Because 0:52:00.520 --> 0:52:01.799 if you have to go to a track, if you 0:52:01.840 --> 0:52:04.320 have to go to a casino, you have to physically 0:52:04.600 --> 0:52:06.239 put the effort in to do it, and I think 0:52:06.280 --> 0:52:09.480 a lot of people, unless you're seriously addicted, won't go 0:52:09.560 --> 0:52:11.680 down that road because it's not accessible. So I can 0:52:11.719 --> 0:52:13.880 see where the state government is trying to do that. 0:52:13.960 --> 0:52:16.279 Well, Josh, I agree with you, and I think that's 0:52:16.320 --> 0:52:19.160 where dwine is kind of trying to step in. You 0:52:19.200 --> 0:52:22.040 know that show six hundred My six hundred pound Life. 0:52:22.120 --> 0:52:22.920 Have you ever watched that? 0:52:23.120 --> 0:52:23.319 Yeah? 0:52:23.520 --> 0:52:27.600 Right, so, yes, the reason why they're getting bigger and 0:52:27.680 --> 0:52:32.240 bigger people like that are because they can get food delivery. 0:52:32.520 --> 0:52:33.360 I mean if. 0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:36.200 They had to get out and get in the car 0:52:36.520 --> 0:52:38.480 and shop or you. 0:52:38.440 --> 0:52:40.480 Know that is that's a great analogy. 0:52:40.719 --> 0:52:43.000 Yes, it was a great analogy you were saying. 0:52:43.080 --> 0:52:45.640 If you think about it, like, it's the same thing. 0:52:45.680 --> 0:52:47.960 You're getting the food delivered, you're getting the gambling delivered 0:52:47.960 --> 0:52:48.560 through your phone. 0:52:49.000 --> 0:52:54.200 It's an addicting behavior and people cannot stop themselves. 0:52:54.360 --> 0:52:56.320 You can be addicted to a lot of things. Listen, 0:52:56.320 --> 0:52:58.799 if I'm hungry and they will deliver pizza, are you 0:52:58.800 --> 0:53:01.640 going to say that because I'm above X amount of 0:53:01.640 --> 0:53:04.840 weight that the delivery in the neighborhood shouldn't bring. 0:53:04.640 --> 0:53:05.360 Me my poes? 0:53:05.719 --> 0:53:06.439 Ridiculous? 0:53:06.920 --> 0:53:12.080 You should cut off my phone or maybe my metabolism 0:53:12.160 --> 0:53:14.240 is slow. I mean, who are you to judge? 0:53:15.000 --> 0:53:15.800 Judge? 0:53:16.040 --> 0:53:18.200 Appreciate the coming, thank you? So I mean it's Josh 0:53:18.239 --> 0:53:19.560 right in that sense. I mean, I you're asked you, 0:53:19.640 --> 0:53:27.320 we're both agreeing. But again, listen, regulation is important survival 0:53:27.360 --> 0:53:31.680 of the fittest, okay, right, I mean to a certain extent. 0:53:31.800 --> 0:53:35.759 Isn't that what free markets are? Right? I mean, where 0:53:35.800 --> 0:53:39.000 are the limits on everything else that you shouldn't? We 0:53:39.040 --> 0:53:41.000 can only invest in certain things, so you have to 0:53:41.040 --> 0:53:44.279 have a balanced portfolio because things might go in the tank. No, 0:53:44.400 --> 0:53:47.680 you're allowed to do that. Nobody gets involved with that, right, 0:53:48.320 --> 0:53:50.200 So why is it okay for the gambling of that 0:53:50.320 --> 0:53:52.399 kind but not the other? Because you can I can 0:53:52.440 --> 0:53:55.360 do all that stuff with any pick an investment house 0:53:55.640 --> 0:53:59.840 and trade any stock at any time that I want effectively, 0:53:59.920 --> 0:54:01.680 is long as you've got the funds. 0:54:01.520 --> 0:54:02.680 Right, you know? 0:54:02.920 --> 0:54:07.080 Yeah, listen, I can't argue with that point because it's 0:54:07.280 --> 0:54:11.239 legal gambling. The sock market is for sure, a lot 0:54:11.280 --> 0:54:14.920 of people are very smart and know how to do 0:54:14.960 --> 0:54:18.759 it and take longer investments. I mean, you know, so 0:54:18.840 --> 0:54:22.440 it's not just so immediate in the you know, in 0:54:23.480 --> 0:54:26.520 the game of today and they all the twenty other 0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:32.040 parlay you know bets that you can do. Sure, So 0:54:32.280 --> 0:54:34.239 I mean you can bet on anything now and you 0:54:34.280 --> 0:54:38.200 can do it today, tomorrow, and sock markets most often 0:54:38.320 --> 0:54:40.520 longer term and investments hopefully. 0:54:40.560 --> 0:54:43.359 But I have a number of friends that's that's what 0:54:43.400 --> 0:54:45.480 they I know, even when they're on their other job, 0:54:45.560 --> 0:54:48.800 they're they're making moves during the day. Donna and Sterling 0:54:49.040 --> 0:54:51.560 hanging out for our Willie this Thanksgiving. Appreciate you being along. 0:54:51.680 --> 0:54:56.319 Here's where listen. I don't want to sound cold, callous, 0:54:56.360 --> 0:55:00.400 indifferent or uncaring for those who have an addiction problem 0:55:00.920 --> 0:55:03.840 or have someone in their lives that have an addiction problem, 0:55:03.920 --> 0:55:07.439 whether it's gambling or alcohol or drugs or any other 0:55:07.480 --> 0:55:10.840 type of thing. But and I'll give you a story 0:55:10.880 --> 0:55:16.239 that's anecdotal, but I experienced it visiting Vegas before I 0:55:16.320 --> 0:55:19.400 moved there, which puts it before I moved back here. 0:55:19.920 --> 0:55:22.799 For those that needing a timeline, I can remember, with 0:55:22.880 --> 0:55:26.840 a couple of bodies in mind, we had left the 0:55:27.160 --> 0:55:29.239 hotel that we were staying in and one of us 0:55:29.280 --> 0:55:31.759 needed to get something. I think it was me, probably 0:55:31.960 --> 0:55:34.560 unprepared and scattered. I had to run in to get 0:55:34.600 --> 0:55:36.200 whatever because we were going to go to like the 0:55:36.280 --> 0:55:38.440 Dam or Red Rock or something to take a break 0:55:38.480 --> 0:55:41.880 from the wagering and to just enjoy the day. So 0:55:42.680 --> 0:55:44.319 as we park at the side, I'm going to come 0:55:44.360 --> 0:55:46.640 into the entrance. There was a beat up station wagon 0:55:47.280 --> 0:55:50.839 and there was and it was blazing hot, and there's 0:55:50.920 --> 0:55:53.719 kids in the car. And there was a guy who 0:55:53.800 --> 0:55:56.920 I held the door open for to go into the casino, 0:55:58.400 --> 0:56:02.840 and he left it kids behind and went immediately to 0:56:02.920 --> 0:56:03.960 some of those machines. 0:56:04.280 --> 0:56:04.880 Wow. 0:56:05.120 --> 0:56:06.920 So he left his kids in the car parked on 0:56:06.960 --> 0:56:10.080 the just on the edge there to go wager while 0:56:10.080 --> 0:56:11.879 I went to grab something out and he was still 0:56:11.880 --> 0:56:14.760 there when I left pumping money in. One would assume 0:56:14.800 --> 0:56:16.160 I don't know if he you know, maybe he should 0:56:16.160 --> 0:56:18.160 have been buying milk or a babysitter for the kids 0:56:18.160 --> 0:56:21.560 he left outside. And I felt even just thinking about it. 0:56:21.600 --> 0:56:25.319 I remember it like it was yesterday, and I feel 0:56:25.520 --> 0:56:27.880 felt sick to my stomach. Then I feel sick to 0:56:27.920 --> 0:56:30.719 my stomach now thinking about that kid's situation. It wasn't 0:56:30.760 --> 0:56:32.319 a guy showing up to get his check, to get 0:56:32.320 --> 0:56:34.120 his money. It wasn't somebody who I left something in 0:56:34.120 --> 0:56:36.320 the rooms. Even if I was visiting, I wouldn't have 0:56:36.360 --> 0:56:38.640 left my kids in the car. No, of course, right, 0:56:38.800 --> 0:56:41.560 just to go grab a ku. Yeah, That is exactly 0:56:41.640 --> 0:56:42.320 my point. 0:56:42.440 --> 0:56:46.960 He cannot feel good about himself about doing that. There 0:56:47.000 --> 0:56:51.839 is an overriding addiction that happens in a scenario like that, 0:56:51.920 --> 0:56:54.120 boiling hot, leaving your kids in the car to go 0:56:54.160 --> 0:56:59.040 make a bet on you know whatever, table, whatever, slot machine, 0:56:59.080 --> 0:57:05.799 whatever it is. So sometimes people need help, right, and 0:57:05.840 --> 0:57:09.359 they appreciate the help when somebody steps in, whether it's 0:57:09.400 --> 0:57:12.520 the government or a friend or a family member or 0:57:12.560 --> 0:57:15.960 things like that, because how bad must you be down 0:57:16.560 --> 0:57:18.280 to leave your kids in the car to go back? 0:57:18.680 --> 0:57:21.880 Still, see, in as much as I am empathetic and 0:57:21.920 --> 0:57:26.160 sympathized with the situation and was heartbroken about those kids 0:57:26.280 --> 0:57:28.600 in the scenario that their dad or whoever was providing 0:57:28.600 --> 0:57:31.720 them care was in that circumstance, I will say the 0:57:31.760 --> 0:57:34.960 other side of that is it's an unfirst fortunate thing 0:57:35.080 --> 0:57:39.360 for them. But who am I or who is the 0:57:39.400 --> 0:57:43.000 governor or other lawmakers to step in to say that 0:57:43.000 --> 0:57:45.400 that guy who's had bad judgment. Now, maybe they get 0:57:45.480 --> 0:57:47.880 him for abandoning the kids outside in the heat. Maybe 0:57:47.880 --> 0:57:51.440 they get him for, you know whatever, not providing proper 0:57:51.480 --> 0:57:55.320 care in that situation, because that desperation was clearly palpable, 0:57:55.360 --> 0:57:57.680 you should be doing something else in that place, but 0:57:58.480 --> 0:58:01.480 freedom of choice. Kids didn't have a choice, But they'll 0:58:01.560 --> 0:58:03.720 learn hopefully that that's not the way to roll as 0:58:03.760 --> 0:58:06.440 a grown up. And it's a it's a tough learning situation. 0:58:06.560 --> 0:58:09.240 But I think there are limits, and then there are 0:58:09.320 --> 0:58:11.840 limits that should be in place, and this is not 0:58:12.320 --> 0:58:14.880 I just it's just a shady gray area and I 0:58:14.880 --> 0:58:17.120 don't know where it stops. They already want to control 0:58:17.160 --> 0:58:19.760 a whole lot of other stuff. And for you know, 0:58:19.760 --> 0:58:24.240 I'm a guy who's a conservative, and I understand, you know, 0:58:24.440 --> 0:58:28.080 I may not approve of how somebody else lives, but again, 0:58:28.120 --> 0:58:31.760 that's their life, that's their world. Unless they're making a 0:58:31.880 --> 0:58:36.600 dangerous circumstance for the general population. I just or they're 0:58:36.640 --> 0:58:39.080 crossing a line and abuse in another. I just don't 0:58:39.080 --> 0:58:43.360 think anybody has the right to get involved. Family, friends, clergy, whatever. 0:58:43.520 --> 0:58:45.120 Somebody can come in and say, look, we're going to 0:58:45.200 --> 0:58:47.840 have an intervention. But I don't think I need Daddy 0:58:47.880 --> 0:58:50.920 to whine, or you know, the President Trump or anyone 0:58:50.920 --> 0:58:53.320 else in that office to tell you me or anybody else. 0:58:53.320 --> 0:58:55.360 It's no different as far as I'm concerned, whether it's 0:58:55.440 --> 0:58:59.280 legal weed or otherwise. Handle your business until you're a 0:58:59.320 --> 0:59:03.520 problem for the general population. It's not ours, that's just me. 0:59:04.200 --> 0:59:04.880 I mean is that? 0:59:04.920 --> 0:59:08.960 I mean I just because it becomes a very slippery slope. No, 0:59:09.280 --> 0:59:12.640 I understand the argument I do. I mean, if listen, 0:59:12.680 --> 0:59:16.360 I don't. I mind my own business most often. But 0:59:16.440 --> 0:59:18.760 if I walk past someone who's beating an animal or 0:59:18.800 --> 0:59:20.760 a child, I'm gonna step in. 0:59:20.920 --> 0:59:24.320 When you see something, say something, so you know, I feel. 0:59:24.000 --> 0:59:28.320 Like it's it's somewhat of our societal obligation to help 0:59:28.360 --> 0:59:30.160 people that are that down. 0:59:30.480 --> 0:59:32.120 Where do you draw the line is that then you 0:59:32.160 --> 0:59:35.000 go to the heavy The person who has a weight problem, 0:59:35.000 --> 0:59:37.880 could be glandular, could be depression, could be whatever else 0:59:38.000 --> 0:59:40.480 they need help clearly, right, so then the government should 0:59:40.480 --> 0:59:44.360 limit what food they buy or how often they get 0:59:44.360 --> 0:59:46.120 into the refrigerator to get that food. 0:59:47.600 --> 0:59:52.760 I don't think having restrictions on, you know, what what 0:59:52.840 --> 0:59:57.360 people buy. If you're getting free food from the government, right, well, yeah, 0:59:57.520 --> 0:59:58.080 you got to have. 0:59:58.040 --> 1:00:01.080 A certain amount of fruitilities they think that would. 1:00:00.800 --> 1:00:02.640 Be a really good So if you're getting help in 1:00:02.720 --> 1:00:06.040 assistance from we the people, then there should be some 1:00:06.200 --> 1:00:09.520 limits obviously into what you can purchase or not purchase. 1:00:09.560 --> 1:00:11.880 In that situation, you get that, right, yeah, right, And 1:00:11.960 --> 1:00:13.280 then some people go, well, how are they going to 1:00:13.320 --> 1:00:15.400 learn to live if they're not getting, you know, the 1:00:15.440 --> 1:00:16.760 option to make those choices. 1:00:17.080 --> 1:00:19.400 I hear what you're saying, but you can't buy alcohol 1:00:19.520 --> 1:00:22.080 and smokes and all that stuff. You have to buy food, 1:00:22.960 --> 1:00:26.919 and hopefully they'll make good choices for that and their 1:00:26.920 --> 1:00:27.680 family and stuff. 1:00:27.680 --> 1:00:28.439 And there's nothing wrong. 1:00:28.480 --> 1:00:31.200 I think it's important to, you know, help people when 1:00:31.400 --> 1:00:33.840 they need it. Yeah, but it's also good to give 1:00:33.880 --> 1:00:36.120 some tough love too and say hey, you shouldn't be 1:00:36.640 --> 1:00:39.320 you shouldn't be spending all this money. I mean, they flag, 1:00:39.640 --> 1:00:42.120 that's what's really good. We had the interview with the 1:00:42.160 --> 1:00:45.880 guy from sportsbook. I can't it was a while ago, 1:00:46.000 --> 1:00:49.080 but they flag when stuff goes over it, when stuff 1:00:49.120 --> 1:00:51.440 goes over the top. And I thought that was really 1:00:51.520 --> 1:00:53.760 really important thing to discuss. 1:00:53.880 --> 1:00:55.280 Yeah, I mean, you want to keep a customer for 1:00:55.320 --> 1:00:57.000 a long time, right, I mean it's like a drug 1:00:57.040 --> 1:00:59.640 dealer in another way. And I'm not mixing metaphors, but 1:00:59.680 --> 1:01:03.240 I am in that situation. I've never understood why you 1:01:03.240 --> 1:01:05.400 would put a poison in a drug that you're trying 1:01:05.480 --> 1:01:07.320 to sell. You want to keep that customer for a 1:01:07.360 --> 1:01:10.440 long time, not kill the customer, right, You want that 1:01:10.480 --> 1:01:13.120 customer to keep coming back, putting money on the line. 1:01:13.360 --> 1:01:16.640 And that's they build those big casinos, those big facilities 1:01:16.680 --> 1:01:20.120 and everything else. Not because people are winning all the time, 1:01:20.200 --> 1:01:24.040 but because you're making a donation and it's an entertainment expense. 1:01:23.720 --> 1:01:26.680 That's right. Most people consider it that way. I do. 1:01:26.880 --> 1:01:29.360 Yeah, I mean I'll take five hundred bucks and whatever 1:01:29.440 --> 1:01:30.640 I lose, it's gone. 1:01:30.800 --> 1:01:32.840 I mean, if you're betting for your rent, if you're 1:01:32.880 --> 1:01:36.040 wagering for your the food or shoes or you know, 1:01:36.080 --> 1:01:37.280 in lieu of time. 1:01:37.120 --> 1:01:39.720 For a job, and that's how you make your money, 1:01:39.760 --> 1:01:41.120 that's going to be very stressful. 1:01:41.280 --> 1:01:44.080 Yeah. But I mean again, that was the dream when 1:01:44.120 --> 1:01:46.200 all that that hold them stuff was all over the 1:01:46.240 --> 1:01:48.919 TV some ten, fifteen, twenty years ago, when that first 1:01:48.920 --> 1:01:51.280 stuff started. I mean me and my friends, a whole 1:01:51.280 --> 1:01:52.880 lot of us started playing a whole lot of cards, 1:01:52.920 --> 1:01:55.960 and you started getting illusional, thinking, ah, this is my life. Yeah, 1:01:56.000 --> 1:01:56.720 I'm doing this. 1:01:57.000 --> 1:01:57.360 Yeah. 1:01:57.360 --> 1:01:59.240 And then then in my case, I went out there 1:01:59.240 --> 1:02:00.840 and I was like, I don't know enough. 1:02:02.160 --> 1:02:04.840 I'm never gonna make a million dollars. 1:02:04.440 --> 1:02:07.320 On this there might be easier just to hit pole. 1:02:07.880 --> 1:02:11.040 Exactly what put a dollar in take your chances. 1:02:11.160 --> 1:02:13.959 It's tough. Five one, three, seven, four nine, seven, eight hundred, 1:02:13.960 --> 1:02:15.840 the big one. Look, we're glad you're along. We're thankful 1:02:15.880 --> 1:02:17.880 that you're here, and we know there's it can be 1:02:17.920 --> 1:02:19.919 a whole lot of stress. So hopefully you're enjoying the meal, 1:02:20.360 --> 1:02:22.680 maybe some fellowship. If you're working, we appreciate you being 1:02:22.680 --> 1:02:24.560 out there doing it just like us. We're on the job. 1:02:24.880 --> 1:02:26.680 As much as this isn't work, really, I mean this 1:02:26.760 --> 1:02:29.200 is fun hanging out. No, and I think I'm how 1:02:29.200 --> 1:02:31.240 long do we have one minute? Well, wait and take 1:02:31.240 --> 1:02:32.720 a break and we'll come back here before news. 1:02:32.960 --> 1:02:33.480 Well I'll be. 1:02:33.480 --> 1:02:38.760 Out because I got a head anyway, Yes, I'll come 1:02:38.800 --> 1:02:39.120 back then. 1:02:39.160 --> 1:02:40.720 If we're doing it, well, do whatever you want to do. 1:02:41.080 --> 1:02:42.560 You're the boss, so we can hang out anyway. It 1:02:42.680 --> 1:02:44.120 was take a break, we'll come back more Sterling down 1:02:44.120 --> 1:02:47.520 a D seven hundred wl Oh. Yes here we are 1:02:47.880 --> 1:02:52.280 just after two two oh seven and fifty six seconds 1:02:52.360 --> 1:02:55.600 right now for our Willie Bill Cyningham enjoying a nice 1:02:55.640 --> 1:02:59.280 Thanksgiving day. To be grateful, to be thankful, as Sterling 1:02:59.360 --> 1:03:02.400 Keeving the seat. Donnade has checked out. I rolled till 1:03:02.480 --> 1:03:07.080 four moegar after that conversation with James Rapine talking who 1:03:07.160 --> 1:03:12.760 day Bengals Ravens Primetime Game three of this huge platter 1:03:12.960 --> 1:03:17.160 filled chicken turkey ham. It's mostly turkey for a lot 1:03:17.160 --> 1:03:20.720 of people. Time in a feast with friends and family. 1:03:21.240 --> 1:03:24.720 Is They're playing in Detroit Green Bay leading ten to 1:03:24.720 --> 1:03:28.800 seven over those Lions, Dallas of playing a bit later 1:03:28.920 --> 1:03:33.520 Bengals Ravens in Charms City or Baltimore, Land of crabcakes, 1:03:33.560 --> 1:03:36.640 soft shell crabs and duck pin bowling. Though we have 1:03:36.720 --> 1:03:38.640 that here, that's the first time I'd ever seen it 1:03:38.760 --> 1:03:42.400 or done that was in Baltimore years ago. Hopefully you're 1:03:42.440 --> 1:03:44.560 having a safe time whatever. You're doing a good time 1:03:44.600 --> 1:03:48.040 with very little family dysfunction, getting along, driving safely from 1:03:48.040 --> 1:03:51.040 place to place, or maybe staying there or whatever. I 1:03:51.120 --> 1:03:54.400 had somebody message me earlier said, and I don't know, 1:03:56.000 --> 1:04:01.120 I can't determine if it's legit or if it's somebody 1:04:01.160 --> 1:04:04.440 just playing or whatever. They said that they have two 1:04:04.480 --> 1:04:09.400 separate kind of like Thanksgiving things. I'm paraphrasing because one 1:04:09.440 --> 1:04:13.960 of their kids is afraid of the bird, afraid of 1:04:13.960 --> 1:04:18.080 the turkey, which apparently is a legit disorder, which I'll 1:04:18.080 --> 1:04:21.560 get into in a little bit. I had a problem 1:04:21.640 --> 1:04:25.840 about that circumstance when I was probably about five or six, 1:04:26.640 --> 1:04:29.120 But it was not because I was wanting to be 1:04:29.400 --> 1:04:33.880 necessarily vegan or vegetarian, or I was a fan and 1:04:33.960 --> 1:04:37.800 friend with the bird. But I look back on it, 1:04:37.880 --> 1:04:39.560 and as I try to make sense of it, and 1:04:39.600 --> 1:04:44.040 as it was explained to me, I had not put 1:04:44.120 --> 1:04:48.000 together what a lot of people try to deliberately separate, 1:04:48.480 --> 1:04:51.400 which is that the bird is what ends up on 1:04:51.440 --> 1:04:55.240 the plate that tastes so good. Right, So my mother 1:04:55.320 --> 1:04:58.439 had people over at the house and had cornish game 1:04:58.520 --> 1:05:03.280 hens and not for Thanksgiving, but like leading up to it, 1:05:03.440 --> 1:05:07.160 which is basically like a pigmy chicken, just a smaller bird. 1:05:08.000 --> 1:05:12.520 And I freaked out. I was disturbed and the twisted 1:05:12.640 --> 1:05:16.720 not quite fully functional thinking it through sterling brain at 1:05:16.760 --> 1:05:18.520 the time. Why and the third person, I say it, 1:05:18.560 --> 1:05:25.480 I have no idea. I was traumatized by the idea 1:05:25.560 --> 1:05:28.919 that they took those little baby cornish game hens down 1:05:29.320 --> 1:05:31.960 before they had a chance to grow up to be 1:05:32.040 --> 1:05:37.720 a healthy, fat, plumped up turkey. And that shook me 1:05:38.280 --> 1:05:40.680 because I thought it was a baby bird rather than 1:05:40.680 --> 1:05:42.960 a full grown bird, when really it was just a 1:05:43.000 --> 1:05:45.560 bird that didn't grow as big as the other birds do, 1:05:46.240 --> 1:05:48.280 and it was slow the day that it ended up 1:05:48.320 --> 1:05:52.160 on the plate at my house and prepared by my mom. 1:05:52.600 --> 1:05:55.320 So what I'm wondering is what is it that you 1:05:55.440 --> 1:05:59.320 have an aversion to or stay away from, because it's 1:05:59.320 --> 1:06:02.160 not just me, though it may be a different mindset 1:06:02.240 --> 1:06:05.520 to sort of go along with that. I'm wondering, are 1:06:05.600 --> 1:06:08.000 you a turkey person, a hand person? What other ends 1:06:08.160 --> 1:06:11.640 we could talk side items? There's certainly the leftover scenario 1:06:11.680 --> 1:06:15.560 that goes along with it, and getting around. I'm all 1:06:15.600 --> 1:06:18.000 about visiting other people's houses. I remember it was a 1:06:18.000 --> 1:06:20.920 big deal. My mother would get all nervous and concerned 1:06:21.040 --> 1:06:24.800 my aunt about making everything perfect for everyone coming over. 1:06:24.960 --> 1:06:28.680 This is really it should be, in some ways, maybe 1:06:28.720 --> 1:06:31.880 the most relaxed and laid back holiday in that we're 1:06:31.920 --> 1:06:35.080 all thankful. We're all grateful for the life that we have, 1:06:35.240 --> 1:06:37.520 the friends that we have, the family that we have, 1:06:37.720 --> 1:06:41.280 the life that we share. And hopefully you know you're 1:06:41.320 --> 1:06:43.160 doing it with the people that you care about right 1:06:43.200 --> 1:06:47.200 now and enjoying it. But I just don't see the 1:06:47.400 --> 1:06:49.960 need even as a kid. Why there was such a 1:06:50.000 --> 1:06:52.960 stress factor involved in it. If it's not exactly perfect, 1:06:53.040 --> 1:06:55.920 made to order for TV, you know, or movie realm, 1:06:55.920 --> 1:06:58.640 that's okay. You're hanging out with people you care about, 1:06:58.680 --> 1:07:04.080 friends giving or otherwise, it's the way it goes. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, 1:07:04.120 --> 1:07:08.040 seven thousand. I'm wondering a bird person not a bird person? 1:07:08.320 --> 1:07:10.560 How do you separate? Do you keep the kids separate? 1:07:10.640 --> 1:07:14.360 We had a kid's table for a while, which I 1:07:14.520 --> 1:07:17.240 was put at seemingly way longer than I thought before 1:07:17.280 --> 1:07:19.320 I moved to the grown up table. The conversation at 1:07:19.360 --> 1:07:21.200 times was better at the kids table, by the way. 1:07:21.600 --> 1:07:24.360 Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand, eight hundred. 1:07:24.400 --> 1:07:26.840 The Big One. You can talk back, the iHeartRadio apps, 1:07:26.880 --> 1:07:29.080 get the Mason and Rob was sterling on the Big One. 1:07:29.240 --> 1:07:31.600 Happy Thanksgiving, appreciate you being here, man, how are you? 1:07:32.040 --> 1:07:32.200 Oh? 1:07:32.320 --> 1:07:35.400 And to you also and all the listeners obviously, but 1:07:35.880 --> 1:07:38.160 I just thought she'd be amused. You know, there's a 1:07:38.160 --> 1:07:40.960 lot of knuckleheads out there. There is a holiday, and 1:07:41.440 --> 1:07:44.840 the dummies really come out in my neighbor who's. 1:07:44.720 --> 1:07:47.040 Not born an American. 1:07:47.120 --> 1:07:48.080 But I'll leave it at that. 1:07:49.080 --> 1:07:52.680 You know, I saw earlier today he had his friar 1:07:53.360 --> 1:07:57.200 out there is turkey fryar and a nice fresh cocaine. 1:07:57.280 --> 1:08:01.200 Take problem was it was way back in his garage 1:08:01.240 --> 1:08:03.560 because you know, it's cold and Wendy, he doesn't want 1:08:03.560 --> 1:08:04.600 to pay outside. 1:08:04.760 --> 1:08:04.920 Now. 1:08:04.920 --> 1:08:07.200 See, I don't know what. I don't know about the 1:08:07.760 --> 1:08:10.720 issue of somebody being from another country, but certainly maybe 1:08:10.760 --> 1:08:14.000 having that where it's not ventilated. Well, or when I 1:08:14.040 --> 1:08:17.120 lived in Tennessee and take the back it was New Orleans. 1:08:17.560 --> 1:08:20.080 The first time I'd ever seen someone deep fry a turkey. 1:08:20.880 --> 1:08:23.839 I was amazed. However, in the news in New Orleans, 1:08:23.840 --> 1:08:26.360 where it may or may not have originated, I got 1:08:26.360 --> 1:08:28.280 to tell you, Rob, there was a guy that is 1:08:28.520 --> 1:08:31.280 you just described, but did it like in an enclosed 1:08:31.280 --> 1:08:33.519 porch and caught their house on fire. And I will 1:08:33.560 --> 1:08:36.280 never forget the lesson learned there, which is, don't do 1:08:36.360 --> 1:08:38.639 it inside, even if it's got a roof of cover 1:08:38.720 --> 1:08:39.000 over it. 1:08:39.040 --> 1:08:44.160 Only well, and this knucklehead, yeah, I don't really care 1:08:44.200 --> 1:08:46.559 where he's from. That's fine as long as he's paying 1:08:46.560 --> 1:08:51.200 his taxes. But anyway, yeah, I just Cashley mentioned to him. 1:08:51.240 --> 1:08:54.560 I said, you know, I do have a fire stinguisher 1:08:54.640 --> 1:08:57.679 and if you happen to want to sit that down 1:08:57.760 --> 1:09:00.719 near you, I said, but you've got two young boys, 1:09:01.280 --> 1:09:04.519 and you're probably gonna let them watch because that's so 1:09:04.840 --> 1:09:08.320 unique that dad's gonna deep fry of turkey for the 1:09:08.400 --> 1:09:11.160 first time. I said, Oh, by the way, is it 1:09:11.200 --> 1:09:14.360 a whole turkey? Oh yeah, we just got it this morning. 1:09:14.040 --> 1:09:14.679 All frozen. 1:09:14.800 --> 1:09:16.760 Oh no, no, no, that's all bad. Yeah, don't do that. 1:09:16.800 --> 1:09:18.840 You get those ice crystals and it hits that that 1:09:18.960 --> 1:09:22.960 hot grease, bad things happen. Yeah, that's a public service. 1:09:23.040 --> 1:09:24.439 You're helping people. 1:09:25.720 --> 1:09:28.080 I'm trying to save his two little boys. I don't 1:09:28.120 --> 1:09:29.639 really care about him all that much. 1:09:29.760 --> 1:09:32.720 Wow, this is a Thanksgiving holiday. You're supposed to care 1:09:32.760 --> 1:09:34.760 about everybody. You're like, I don't care about the guy, 1:09:34.920 --> 1:09:37.839 just the kids. It's always about the children. I understand. 1:09:37.880 --> 1:09:38.280 I get it. 1:09:38.320 --> 1:09:41.439 Well, I'm just I'm just kind of a redneck, I guess. 1:09:43.320 --> 1:09:47.400 I Finally I called the local fire department and I said, 1:09:47.479 --> 1:09:51.720 you know, there's not a fire yet. However, could you 1:09:52.000 --> 1:09:55.760 have somebody come and struckt this neighbor of mine that 1:09:55.840 --> 1:09:58.720 he lives in a condominium. Now you're not allowed to 1:09:58.800 --> 1:10:02.760 have open fires on your deck. We don't recommend you 1:10:02.960 --> 1:10:08.280 cook inside your girls, and could you please consider doing 1:10:08.320 --> 1:10:12.559 something else, And he basically starts arguing with the fire chief. 1:10:12.720 --> 1:10:15.280 Oh they came by. Oh okay, well that's nice that 1:10:15.320 --> 1:10:17.080 they swung by, because I don't want to come back 1:10:17.160 --> 1:10:20.120 later and have it be a cautionary tail in a headline. 1:10:20.360 --> 1:10:21.360 It's nice that they can. 1:10:22.560 --> 1:10:24.880 Yeah, I thought we could kind of cut this one 1:10:24.920 --> 1:10:28.639 off at the beginning, you know, And he finally even 1:10:28.760 --> 1:10:31.920 fire the fire assistant chief. I don't think the fire 1:10:32.000 --> 1:10:35.800 chief's working today, hey, he said, Sir, he said, I'm 1:10:35.840 --> 1:10:38.479 gonna either need to have the police come by and 1:10:38.520 --> 1:10:42.320 write your citation or you're gonna get what I'm talking about. 1:10:42.360 --> 1:10:46.080 So finally, you know, now my better hat's all picked 1:10:46.120 --> 1:10:49.240 off with me because I've upset the neighbors. 1:10:49.880 --> 1:10:53.040 You were trying to help. What I have found is 1:10:53.080 --> 1:10:55.840 that often my best intentions, every time I try to 1:10:55.880 --> 1:10:58.559 be nice, it usually turns around and I've screwed something up. 1:10:58.600 --> 1:11:01.519 So Rob, you're in good company at So there you go. 1:11:01.560 --> 1:11:03.840 I mean, I'm an old guy that humanity is not 1:11:03.920 --> 1:11:06.440 getting any smarter by my observations. 1:11:07.920 --> 1:11:10.920 I tell you sometimes you too, I appreciate it. Rob, 1:11:10.960 --> 1:11:12.720 thank you, And I'm sure your neighbor and time will 1:11:12.720 --> 1:11:14.920 think about that and go, hey, I appreciate it. And 1:11:14.920 --> 1:11:16.360 you got to learn. You got to have a plan 1:11:16.439 --> 1:11:18.000 and get it together. That's why it's good to visit 1:11:18.040 --> 1:11:19.519 other people's house and they can deal with it and 1:11:19.560 --> 1:11:22.880 you can leave before the problems start. To Georgetown, enjoy 1:11:23.360 --> 1:11:25.320 happy Thanksgiving. It's good to talk to you on seven 1:11:25.400 --> 1:11:27.559 hundred WLW as we sit in here for Willie. 1:11:27.560 --> 1:11:31.360 It was us good to talk to you when you 1:11:31.479 --> 1:11:35.760 was talking about chickens and turkeys. I do not like 1:11:35.880 --> 1:11:40.360 anything that has feathers on it. I'm eighty seven years 1:11:40.439 --> 1:11:44.760 old and when I was three, I had a pet 1:11:44.880 --> 1:11:49.200 chicken and I would run around in the backyard and 1:11:49.600 --> 1:11:55.320 play with that chicken. And one Sunday afternoon we all 1:11:55.600 --> 1:11:59.240 I had an older brother and an older sister and 1:11:59.320 --> 1:12:05.439 we said it dinner table, and my sister said, oh, 1:12:05.600 --> 1:12:12.479 is that chicken? And my mother said, yes, she had 1:12:12.600 --> 1:12:13.639 killed my chicken. 1:12:13.920 --> 1:12:16.599 Oh no, wanted me to have it for dinner. 1:12:16.880 --> 1:12:17.160 Yeah. 1:12:17.200 --> 1:12:19.599 That's a hard lesson, isn't it. That's child so ever, 1:12:19.680 --> 1:12:21.640 since then you're against the bird. You don't want to 1:12:21.680 --> 1:12:23.760 eat the bird. Because you fell in love and care 1:12:24.040 --> 1:12:26.240 and you have an understanding that it was eating. So 1:12:26.320 --> 1:12:29.720 you're a fan of the bird. Yes, so you never 1:12:29.760 --> 1:12:34.599 eat any chicken. No tenders, no nuggets, no breasts, no legs, 1:12:34.680 --> 1:12:36.439 no thighs, nothing, no. 1:12:36.439 --> 1:12:38.479 Bird nothing, no birds. 1:12:38.640 --> 1:12:41.439 Okay, so that's so. Do you have ham? Are you 1:12:41.439 --> 1:12:42.320 okay with the hog? 1:12:43.720 --> 1:12:43.920 Oh? 1:12:44.000 --> 1:12:48.200 Yes, we like ham. But we're having roast beef, mashed 1:12:48.240 --> 1:12:54.880 potatoes and gravy, nice noodles, coleslaw, punkin pie, and cherry cheesecake. 1:12:55.080 --> 1:12:57.240 Man, it sounds like you're living right, Joy, I'm telling 1:12:57.280 --> 1:12:58.000 you that's pretty good. 1:12:58.080 --> 1:12:58.280 See. 1:12:58.320 --> 1:13:01.400 I was concerned that you had a phobia, which is 1:13:01.920 --> 1:13:05.599 or a phobia ornithhobophobia, I believe is how it's pronounced, 1:13:06.360 --> 1:13:10.759 is in fact a fear of birds, worrying about them attacking. 1:13:10.800 --> 1:13:12.760 My buddy Brad used to have that, but birds would 1:13:12.800 --> 1:13:15.000 seek him out. I understand it. You actually care and 1:13:15.080 --> 1:13:17.160 love the bird you were. You want the birds to 1:13:17.200 --> 1:13:18.400 live long and prosper. 1:13:19.439 --> 1:13:21.440 Oh yes, yes, yes. 1:13:21.160 --> 1:13:23.759 Well I appreciate that, and the birds love you too. Joy. 1:13:23.880 --> 1:13:26.439 We love you have yourself a great thanksgiving. I appreciate 1:13:26.439 --> 1:13:28.080 your reaching out and enjoy that roast beef. 1:13:29.000 --> 1:13:31.920 You too, But don't you eat too much turkey now. 1:13:32.000 --> 1:13:33.720 I'll try not to. I'll wait till I get home, 1:13:33.760 --> 1:13:36.320 otherwise I'll uh. I know the trip to fan will 1:13:36.360 --> 1:13:38.880 get you. So that's what you get. You get the sleepies, 1:13:39.280 --> 1:13:41.360 as some people say, sometimes it's just after you you know, 1:13:41.439 --> 1:13:44.320 you have a couple of cocktails. This is a big 1:13:44.360 --> 1:13:47.599 cocktail day. Last night, biggest night out, big bar night, 1:13:47.640 --> 1:13:50.840 big restroom night leading into Thanksgiving, and of course Black 1:13:50.880 --> 1:13:54.439 Friday sales seemingly been going on forever. How times have changed, 1:13:54.840 --> 1:13:58.040 you know, about five ten, probably closer to ten years ago. 1:13:58.840 --> 1:14:01.880 I remember that people. In fact, Kevin Carr, who Abaha 1:14:01.960 --> 1:14:04.880 on the show Tomorrow Night talking movies, fat guys at 1:14:04.880 --> 1:14:07.400 the movies and the silver gecko there on the sub stack. 1:14:08.880 --> 1:14:11.640 He and I used to talk about it and he 1:14:11.680 --> 1:14:15.439 would regularly be in line out and about looking to 1:14:15.479 --> 1:14:19.599 get Black Friday deals as well, the Guida deal. Dev Shapiro, 1:14:19.640 --> 1:14:21.920 who I have on the show on talking about it. 1:14:21.960 --> 1:14:23.960 He used to do the same thing at camp out, 1:14:24.000 --> 1:14:26.559 like outside of like trying stores or whatever else. Times 1:14:26.560 --> 1:14:29.240 have changed. He'd wait for the circulars and get those 1:14:29.280 --> 1:14:31.960 and all the other stuff that sort of goes along 1:14:32.000 --> 1:14:36.599 with that, But yeah, not necessarily quite the same world 1:14:36.640 --> 1:14:38.840 it was before I knew people that would be waiting 1:14:38.880 --> 1:14:42.200 in line already through Thanksgiving and have the feast outside 1:14:42.320 --> 1:14:45.120 with the tent and maybe a portable heater and all 1:14:45.120 --> 1:14:47.240 the other stuff that goes along with it. Let's get 1:14:47.240 --> 1:14:49.759 one more in here before the break to Batavian Rocky. 1:14:49.800 --> 1:14:51.880 But I don't think it's our Rocky. It is our 1:14:51.960 --> 1:14:53.720 Rocky because he's listening and being a part of the show. 1:14:53.720 --> 1:14:56.240 But not mister boyman, what's up, rock How are you? 1:14:56.680 --> 1:14:56.880 Yeah? 1:14:57.120 --> 1:14:58.760 I want to talk to you about the last call 1:14:58.840 --> 1:15:02.360 or wuldn't anything was said? Yes, I was four years old, 1:15:02.400 --> 1:15:04.759 grew up with a farm. I had two pet geese. 1:15:05.000 --> 1:15:08.920 Oh they were big ones, and one year Dad cut 1:15:08.960 --> 1:15:12.880 them up and served them up for dinner. And ever 1:15:13.000 --> 1:15:15.840 since then, I have not been able to eat dark meat, 1:15:16.479 --> 1:15:21.080 but I love anything with white meat on it. Turkey, breast, chicken, breast. 1:15:21.720 --> 1:15:24.040 I mean this, I just eat the crap hour. But so, 1:15:24.920 --> 1:15:27.120 I don't know how. I guess anybody can have a 1:15:27.120 --> 1:15:31.360 phobia for something, but killing a duck or a chicken 1:15:31.479 --> 1:15:32.599 is not my phobia. 1:15:32.880 --> 1:15:35.280 I totally understand it, right, I will I will tell 1:15:35.280 --> 1:15:38.080 you years ago, and this probably lets a little of 1:15:38.120 --> 1:15:40.160 the country out in me. Some of my family friend 1:15:40.160 --> 1:15:43.960 type then growing up, they had what they have, chickens 1:15:44.000 --> 1:15:46.040 they'd raise, and then they'd have what they called a 1:15:46.120 --> 1:15:50.400 chicken plucking party, and people would come over and it 1:15:50.439 --> 1:15:54.160 was a mass extinction situation for their birds. And I 1:15:54.200 --> 1:15:58.680 remember being a tiny sterling, and I was somewhat traumatized 1:15:58.680 --> 1:16:01.160 by it, but I had grown beyond the Cornish hen trauma, 1:16:01.840 --> 1:16:06.519 and and I chased one of these poor chickens. It 1:16:06.600 --> 1:16:09.920 was running literally for its life through like a thistle bush, 1:16:10.000 --> 1:16:13.439 at which point it became a personal vendetta for me 1:16:13.479 --> 1:16:15.760 because I went, I was young and dumb. I went 1:16:15.800 --> 1:16:19.840 into the thistle bush, I chased that chicken down, I 1:16:19.960 --> 1:16:24.360 killed that chicken. I plucked that chicken. I cleaned that chicken, 1:16:24.720 --> 1:16:27.280 and I ate a whole bunch of that chicken that night. 1:16:28.120 --> 1:16:30.320 And it really, as I say it, I think that 1:16:30.360 --> 1:16:33.080 probably sounds pretty barbaric and harsh to somebody, but that's 1:16:33.080 --> 1:16:35.040 about as pure as anything other than getting it, you know, 1:16:35.080 --> 1:16:38.200 already vacuum packed in a bag with the giblets outside. 1:16:38.840 --> 1:16:43.000 So all my dad raised around two hundred chickens and 1:16:43.080 --> 1:16:45.400 every Sunday it was my job to go out and 1:16:45.520 --> 1:16:49.000 kill a couple yep. And it was just good eating 1:16:49.280 --> 1:16:50.960 it is it really is. 1:16:51.000 --> 1:16:53.479 I love chicken, but uh, I'd never had a personal 1:16:53.520 --> 1:16:55.559 and even as I just told that story, I kind 1:16:55.560 --> 1:16:57.439 of went and I feel bad, like, I mean, it 1:16:57.439 --> 1:17:01.240 should never be a personal like thing, although it's quite 1:17:01.240 --> 1:17:03.240 personal for the bird obviously. 1:17:04.320 --> 1:17:07.439 Quite possibly. Yeah, I would say, did you cut it 1:17:07.520 --> 1:17:09.280 snack off? Or did you ring it snack? 1:17:09.760 --> 1:17:11.360 I think I started to try to cut it and 1:17:11.360 --> 1:17:13.080 cutn't And then they showed me what I needed to 1:17:13.120 --> 1:17:15.439 do to ring it, and yeah it's And I know 1:17:15.439 --> 1:17:16.960 there are kids maybe in the car now, and that 1:17:17.040 --> 1:17:18.960 I hope we haven't caused more trauma. I want to 1:17:18.960 --> 1:17:21.000 be a part of the solution, not the problem. I 1:17:21.040 --> 1:17:23.519 don't want to hurt our Willie and his ratings, and 1:17:23.520 --> 1:17:25.479 I don't want to hurt the people. I'm here to help, 1:17:25.760 --> 1:17:27.400 you know, Rocky, That's what I'm here to do. 1:17:28.439 --> 1:17:30.759 Well. I remember when I would used to kill a chicken. 1:17:31.960 --> 1:17:35.439 I would just pick it up, blatten down on a stump, yep, 1:17:35.920 --> 1:17:38.760 and I cut its head off. And as soon as 1:17:38.760 --> 1:17:42.599 you cut their heads off, you get gone real quick, yep, 1:17:42.680 --> 1:17:45.600 because they start flopping and you'll get blood all over you. 1:17:45.760 --> 1:17:48.479 And they do run, they do run. This has gotten 1:17:48.479 --> 1:17:50.400 too graphic. I'm sure I'm going to get a call. 1:17:50.640 --> 1:17:52.479 I'm going to get an email. I'll get a text 1:17:52.680 --> 1:17:54.240 that we don't want to This is supposed to be 1:17:54.280 --> 1:17:57.320 good times, wholesome times. We love the chickens, we love 1:17:57.360 --> 1:18:01.240 the birds alive and cook it up real nicely. Rocket. 1:18:01.200 --> 1:18:02.360 I appreciate the call me and I hope you have 1:18:02.360 --> 1:18:04.280 a good Thanksgiving. What's your favorite side item before we 1:18:04.360 --> 1:18:04.639 let you. 1:18:04.600 --> 1:18:08.880 Bounce or sure gress? 1:18:09.240 --> 1:18:11.400 Oh my grandma used to make oyster dressing. I love 1:18:11.439 --> 1:18:13.640 that scalloped oysters. Rocky, take care of yourself, man. Thank 1:18:13.680 --> 1:18:14.680 you for listening to me a part of. 1:18:14.680 --> 1:18:17.439 The show, your program, And I hope I find somebody 1:18:17.439 --> 1:18:19.599 else out there that have some comments on chickens. 1:18:19.600 --> 1:18:22.479 There you go, chickens good or a swine? This is great. Frank, 1:18:22.520 --> 1:18:24.040 you got about two and a half minutes. What do 1:18:24.080 --> 1:18:25.360 you have? Happy Thanksgiving? 1:18:25.400 --> 1:18:25.720 It was. 1:18:27.680 --> 1:18:28.000 Frank? 1:18:28.200 --> 1:18:34.599 Thanks you, Hey, happy Thanksgiving. He might's gonna slide off 1:18:34.640 --> 1:18:37.160 to a little different farm an a little bit. Yeah, 1:18:37.280 --> 1:18:41.400 I've done everything on the chicken ring A neck, all 1:18:41.439 --> 1:18:42.439 that let it. 1:18:42.479 --> 1:18:44.800 Run around the yard and all that chase him down. 1:18:44.840 --> 1:18:46.800 You gotta get them and you cook them up absolutely. 1:18:47.000 --> 1:18:50.439 Now the screen says, pig story, you have a swine story. 1:18:51.280 --> 1:18:56.960 No, but we grew up a pig that was kicked 1:18:57.000 --> 1:18:59.920 out from a large letter of big sala. 1:19:01.120 --> 1:19:02.120 We named it George. 1:19:02.280 --> 1:19:05.000 Oh yeah. 1:19:06.040 --> 1:19:08.440 Once he got up to three hundred and fifty pounds, 1:19:08.840 --> 1:19:12.840 it kept jumping on a car because it slept with 1:19:12.960 --> 1:19:13.479 the dogs. 1:19:13.720 --> 1:19:17.240 Yep, and it thought it was a dog. 1:19:18.000 --> 1:19:20.680 That they are amazing and smart. But that that is 1:19:20.720 --> 1:19:23.200 a big, big hog. And yeah, that's a whole nother thing. 1:19:23.200 --> 1:19:24.880 I gotta let you bounce on that. I'll just tell 1:19:24.880 --> 1:19:27.519 you this. My friends have a pig named Larry. He 1:19:27.560 --> 1:19:29.559 has a hog door. He comes in and out as 1:19:29.600 --> 1:19:32.600 he wants, I kid you not. And he has like 1:19:32.640 --> 1:19:36.320 a litter box, I guess a swine box. But he 1:19:36.439 --> 1:19:38.200 likes to go out and he goes out at will. 1:19:40.000 --> 1:19:42.479 But he likes he has a We had chops. They 1:19:42.520 --> 1:19:44.200 invited me over. I thought this was in poor taste. 1:19:44.240 --> 1:19:47.599 They invited me over had pork chops. And that hog 1:19:47.640 --> 1:19:50.240 would lean against your stool and on you to rub 1:19:50.280 --> 1:19:52.160 the scratch and he would just look up at you 1:19:52.520 --> 1:19:54.400 and he acted like he wanted what you were eating, 1:19:54.439 --> 1:19:57.200 which I thought was barbaric. I don't think that Larry 1:19:57.240 --> 1:20:01.440 the Hog really wanted to eat pork chops, but I'm 1:20:01.520 --> 1:20:04.719 still conflicted about that. You're two or two thirty report 1:20:04.800 --> 1:20:07.800 coming straight away the news and then conversation with James 1:20:07.840 --> 1:20:11.679 Rapeen about Bengals Ravens. They play tonight Thanksgiving prime time 1:20:11.840 --> 1:20:17.439 Nation Station where the Hoode play seven hundred WLW. Well, 1:20:17.439 --> 1:20:19.880 it's a Turkey day, Lots to be grateful for, lots 1:20:19.920 --> 1:20:22.679 to be thankful for. There is no question Sterling hanging 1:20:22.720 --> 1:20:26.400 out Bengals on the road, Charms City, some call it Baltimore. 1:20:26.439 --> 1:20:30.200 There's a tea, it's Baltimore. Who knew Land of crabcake, 1:20:30.320 --> 1:20:34.360 soft shell, crab, Ravens and well used to used to 1:20:34.360 --> 1:20:37.360 be the Colts. But let's not go there. James Rapine 1:20:37.680 --> 1:20:40.280 hanging out on a fine Turkey day. Are you a 1:20:40.320 --> 1:20:42.920 starcheres guy or are you more of a protein man? 1:20:43.000 --> 1:20:46.320 Or are you all about like the cranberries. 1:20:47.520 --> 1:20:50.120 Everything but the cranberries. I don't go out of my 1:20:50.200 --> 1:20:54.040 way for the cranberries. Cranberry and vodka. You could twist 1:20:54.040 --> 1:20:58.639 my arm. But yeah, I think anything pies anything starts 1:20:58.840 --> 1:20:59.639 in anything protein. 1:21:00.200 --> 1:21:03.200 For Yeah, it's a good thing. I'm feeling quite bloated already. 1:21:03.560 --> 1:21:05.920 The preparation has already been tough. I've gone through two 1:21:05.920 --> 1:21:08.360 pies in the last two weeks, and mostly by myself. 1:21:08.400 --> 1:21:10.920 But I digress, and I know that's not why you're here, 1:21:12.920 --> 1:21:16.000 and I'll have more later. And do you use like 1:21:16.040 --> 1:21:18.599 the cool whip? Do you use the whipped cream on 1:21:18.640 --> 1:21:20.920 your pies? Are you a sweet potato or a pumpkin 1:21:20.960 --> 1:21:22.960 pie guy? Before we get to Bengals. 1:21:22.520 --> 1:21:24.960 Talk, Oh pumpkin pie, come on, come. 1:21:24.880 --> 1:21:27.639 On, all right. See I like both. They're they're both 1:21:27.760 --> 1:21:30.519 very good. But there is a distinct love hate thing. 1:21:30.560 --> 1:21:33.040 People are all one or the other. I'm like an anomaly, 1:21:33.120 --> 1:21:34.640 which is maybe not surprising. 1:21:35.640 --> 1:21:38.640 I don't hate sweet potato pie, but if it's like 1:21:38.760 --> 1:21:41.240 a good version of this versus a good version of 1:21:41.280 --> 1:21:44.720 that pumpkin pie clears it for me. Maybe it's just me, 1:21:45.120 --> 1:21:46.360 you know, the underrated one. 1:21:46.640 --> 1:21:52.160 No pecan pie. Pecan Yeah, now see, I don't see. 1:21:52.160 --> 1:21:54.800 I don't understand the there's the pecan pie, then there's 1:21:54.840 --> 1:21:57.280 the mince pan pie. Then there's a rhubarb pie, which 1:21:57.320 --> 1:22:00.240 I don't even it kind of looks like celery at 1:22:00.320 --> 1:22:02.800 least by shape, but it's not and I don't know 1:22:02.840 --> 1:22:04.280 what I don't know what that is. And as a kid, 1:22:04.320 --> 1:22:06.920 I was scared to mince meat because I I was like, 1:22:06.960 --> 1:22:08.880 there's already meat on the table, Why do I want more 1:22:08.880 --> 1:22:10.160 in a pie form? 1:22:10.439 --> 1:22:15.080 Yeah, that's fair, I didn't say, I said. For college. 1:22:15.520 --> 1:22:17.439 I like your response, You're like, that's fair. You're like, 1:22:17.520 --> 1:22:18.880 I don't even know what to say to that. You've 1:22:18.920 --> 1:22:20.120 not grown out of a problem. 1:22:21.400 --> 1:22:23.800 Well, I'm not eating it. Put it that way, I don't. 1:22:23.800 --> 1:22:26.840 I don't think. I don't foresee that being something that 1:22:26.880 --> 1:22:27.920 I'm going to consume today. 1:22:28.160 --> 1:22:32.320 No, here's the question. Here are the Bengals swollen bloated? 1:22:32.360 --> 1:22:34.880 Do they eat a feast before or eat after? How 1:22:34.920 --> 1:22:36.840 does that work? When they I mean, is a kid 1:22:36.880 --> 1:22:38.840 growing up, it was always the Lions. It seemed like 1:22:38.880 --> 1:22:42.320 the Cowboys, the Packers were always playing these Thanksgiving Day games. 1:22:42.360 --> 1:22:45.640 Bengals getting some love and Joe Burrow back, that's the 1:22:45.680 --> 1:22:48.040 biggest gift to be thankful for of all. Of course, 1:22:48.080 --> 1:22:50.760 if they win, yeah, huge. 1:22:50.800 --> 1:22:55.439 Huge, huge addition, getting Joe Burrow back, and it's going 1:22:55.479 --> 1:22:59.640 to matter for sure. To your point, I definitely think 1:22:59.640 --> 1:23:02.360 it's a a Friday thing and you celebrate with your 1:23:02.360 --> 1:23:04.519 family if you're really sore from your football game on 1:23:04.680 --> 1:23:07.840 Thursday night and so Friday afternoon, I think that's when 1:23:07.840 --> 1:23:12.320 the Bengals will celebrate their Thanksgiving. Look, I uh, it 1:23:12.360 --> 1:23:15.000 doesn't get much bigger than bringing Joe Burrow back. And 1:23:15.280 --> 1:23:18.160 we talked about this exact scenario a few days ago 1:23:18.240 --> 1:23:20.960 and Boil BOYD and I think this is what they 1:23:20.960 --> 1:23:22.400 were gonna do. I wish they would have done it 1:23:22.439 --> 1:23:25.360 a few days ago, but he's active. We get to 1:23:25.360 --> 1:23:29.080 see Joe Burrow play football tonight, and what's better than that. 1:23:29.080 --> 1:23:31.200 There's not many things in the NFL better than watching 1:23:31.240 --> 1:23:32.160 Joe Burrow play. 1:23:31.960 --> 1:23:35.160 Football, except maybe not just him playing, but connecting with 1:23:35.240 --> 1:23:39.000 his number one Jamar Chase, who's also back. And so 1:23:39.720 --> 1:23:41.960 how is that vibe? Has much been said about all 1:23:41.960 --> 1:23:43.880 of that. I know there was an apology which came 1:23:44.000 --> 1:23:48.160 after the whole like a blow up for the week. Right, Yeah, I. 1:23:48.200 --> 1:23:52.400 Think this is my opinion. No one's told me this, 1:23:52.520 --> 1:23:56.800 but I think the Bengals are like, yeah, this this situation, 1:23:56.960 --> 1:24:01.000 we know who Jamar Chase is and Jalen Ramsey is 1:24:01.080 --> 1:24:05.439 the world's best agitator and well past his prime. And 1:24:05.520 --> 1:24:09.120 so we're not gonna let well we're not gonna let 1:24:09.160 --> 1:24:14.840 one action dictate how we feel about Jamar Chase. And 1:24:14.880 --> 1:24:18.040 by the way, I don't think the Bengals should and 1:24:18.120 --> 1:24:23.320 I don't think he should either, And so what tonight is, honestly, 1:24:24.200 --> 1:24:28.760 it is a chance for Jamar to remind everyone who 1:24:28.840 --> 1:24:32.719 he is. And that's the best wide receiver in football. 1:24:32.960 --> 1:24:36.160 And so all those images a couple of weeks back 1:24:36.200 --> 1:24:38.760 and all that stuff that goes out the window if 1:24:38.800 --> 1:24:40.439 you go into M and T Bank Stadium and do 1:24:40.479 --> 1:24:42.400 what he did last year, three touchdowns, two hundred and 1:24:42.439 --> 1:24:44.439 sixty plus yards. He doesn't even need to do that. 1:24:45.040 --> 1:24:46.559 But if he has a good game tonight, I think 1:24:46.560 --> 1:24:48.640 he'll goble to remind everybody who he is. 1:24:49.040 --> 1:24:51.519 Talking to. James Rapine, the book entered the Jungle. It's 1:24:51.520 --> 1:24:54.160 still available, Yeah, I mean, Black Friday's around the corner. 1:24:54.200 --> 1:24:56.120 You can feel it, right, I mean, are you printing 1:24:56.160 --> 1:24:58.000 those in the basement? How does that work? 1:24:58.600 --> 1:24:58.760 Oh? 1:24:58.840 --> 1:25:01.960 Yeah, they're ready to go at Cincinnati Bengals book dot Com. 1:25:02.200 --> 1:25:05.360 The three also Joe Burrow is back and the book 1:25:05.400 --> 1:25:05.880 is still here. 1:25:05.920 --> 1:25:08.679 Baby, It's a beautiful thing. James Keene with Sterling seven 1:25:08.720 --> 1:25:12.679 hundred WLW also Cincinnati Bengals talk Lockdown Bengals. He's everywhere 1:25:12.720 --> 1:25:17.439 Sports Illustrated. So on t Higgins and Trey Henderson, both 1:25:17.479 --> 1:25:20.360 of those guys not playing, did they make Are they 1:25:20.400 --> 1:25:22.599 making the trip or is that one of those stay 1:25:22.600 --> 1:25:26.080 home kind of scenarios on different physical issues for both. 1:25:26.680 --> 1:25:30.960 Yeah, I think for Tea, I would be sort of 1:25:30.960 --> 1:25:32.960 surprised if he made the trip. Maybe he did, I 1:25:33.400 --> 1:25:36.439 don't know for sure. And part of it is just 1:25:36.479 --> 1:25:40.320 because it's a concussion, it's a short week and staying 1:25:40.360 --> 1:25:43.800 back rehabbing it would make sense. And the same thing 1:25:43.840 --> 1:25:47.479 goes for Trey Hendrickson's Look, they need those guys if 1:25:47.479 --> 1:25:50.800 they win Thursday there you know, are tonight excuse me, 1:25:51.080 --> 1:25:53.920 there'll be I'm so used to Thursday versus Sunday. I 1:25:53.960 --> 1:25:54.720 said Sunday all week. 1:25:54.760 --> 1:25:56.920 Well, it's been a weird week, the whole week and 1:25:57.000 --> 1:25:58.920 then the short one just a couple of days. Then 1:25:58.960 --> 1:26:00.799 you got to go from one to Joe to another. 1:26:00.840 --> 1:26:02.679 There's a lot of stuff to keep track of. James 1:26:02.720 --> 1:26:03.760 I'm not going to hate on you for that. 1:26:04.200 --> 1:26:07.320 Yeah, there is. And well, the thing is is last 1:26:07.320 --> 1:26:09.280 week I was like, well, Joe play Sunday or Thursday, 1:26:09.280 --> 1:26:11.879 and so I've just kind of categorized him, and now's Thursday, 1:26:11.880 --> 1:26:15.400 which is tonight. Anyways, I think that it's the stuff. 1:26:17.240 --> 1:26:21.200 It is. It is Trey Hendrickson. You need it. Like 1:26:21.560 --> 1:26:24.720 if they handle business tonight, there are going to be 1:26:24.720 --> 1:26:26.760 people that say, all right, well there's five games left. 1:26:26.800 --> 1:26:30.120 You go to Buffalo, you go to you welcome Baltimore back, 1:26:30.360 --> 1:26:32.760 and then it's hell from there, like you could get 1:26:32.760 --> 1:26:35.200 the nine and eight and that sounds great, but it's 1:26:35.200 --> 1:26:36.400 going to be really hard to do if you don't 1:26:36.400 --> 1:26:40.240 have ninety one out there. So t Higgins, obviously, I 1:26:40.280 --> 1:26:43.320 think things are going to trend, hopefully in the right direction, 1:26:43.400 --> 1:26:45.320 and maybe he can be back out there for Buffalo. 1:26:45.400 --> 1:26:47.639 But Trey Hendrickson, we haven't seen him in a month 1:26:47.840 --> 1:26:49.880 and so they certainly need him back on the. 1:26:49.880 --> 1:26:53.519 Field, no question. Sterling talking to James Ravine Bengals Ravens 1:26:53.520 --> 1:26:56.920 tonight Thanksgiving, big Turkey legs and a lot of our 1:26:56.960 --> 1:27:00.360 heads or maybe the oversize the flapper wings. I don't 1:27:00.400 --> 1:27:02.840 know either, way, a lot of people are going to 1:27:02.840 --> 1:27:06.519 be paying attention. Kickoff a little bit later six and five. 1:27:06.680 --> 1:27:09.400 Ravens leading the way in the AFC North, Bengals trying 1:27:09.400 --> 1:27:11.800 to get a little bit closer somehow to five hundred 1:27:11.880 --> 1:27:15.799 or whatever. Injuratory situation for Ravens, I mean the Ravens, 1:27:16.000 --> 1:27:17.960 I mean they're just a game over five hundred, but 1:27:18.000 --> 1:27:19.960 they're still leading the way. And it's the AFC North. 1:27:19.960 --> 1:27:23.200 These are always ugly, nasty kind of battles. 1:27:23.479 --> 1:27:23.840 They are. 1:27:24.120 --> 1:27:27.559 And the guy that really hasn't been himself in recent weeks, 1:27:27.960 --> 1:27:31.679 and I hesitate to mention him because he always crushes 1:27:31.720 --> 1:27:34.400 the Bengals is Lamar Jackson. You know, he's been listed 1:27:34.439 --> 1:27:39.120 with a knee, a toe, an ankle, just different injuries, 1:27:39.920 --> 1:27:43.280 and the national media has certainly mentioned the fact that 1:27:43.320 --> 1:27:47.120 he just hasn't been the same guy recently, which naturally 1:27:47.520 --> 1:27:49.960 sterling you look at it and you're like, well, let 1:27:50.000 --> 1:27:52.920 me show you this Bengals defense. And so that's what 1:27:53.040 --> 1:27:56.640 I think that the biggest storyline here is when it 1:27:56.680 --> 1:27:58.840 comes to the Ravens in their health, is where it 1:27:59.000 --> 1:28:02.240 is Lamar Jackson healthwise, if he's close to one hundred 1:28:02.240 --> 1:28:05.320 percent and they've just been ineffective on offense. Well, it's 1:28:05.360 --> 1:28:07.760 going to be a tall task for the Bengals. If 1:28:07.840 --> 1:28:11.200 Lamar is a bit compromised, well then maybe the Bengals 1:28:11.200 --> 1:28:14.040 defense can follow up what they did on Sunday with 1:28:14.120 --> 1:28:16.920 another nice showing. And I was pleased with what they 1:28:16.960 --> 1:28:20.439 did defensively against the Patriots. They gave the Bengals a 1:28:20.520 --> 1:28:23.000 chance to win. If they play like that and give 1:28:23.040 --> 1:28:26.280 the Bengals a chance to win tonight, I will take 1:28:26.320 --> 1:28:29.720 that all day long. And I think Joe Burrow will too. 1:28:30.000 --> 1:28:32.479 It's a long weekend. James Rapeene enter the Jungle of 1:28:32.479 --> 1:28:36.479 the book, Cincinnati Bengals talk, YouTube, everywhere else locked on Bengals, Sterling, 1:28:36.520 --> 1:28:41.599 Big One, Bengals, Ravens, Tonight, injuries. I mean, everybody's dinged 1:28:41.680 --> 1:28:43.759 up at this point, aside from the ones we've already 1:28:43.760 --> 1:28:48.160 talked about. With this battle, what do you see? I mean, 1:28:48.240 --> 1:28:50.200 if they can have a good showing tonight, if Burrow 1:28:50.240 --> 1:28:52.880 can stay healthy. And I got some hate because I 1:28:52.920 --> 1:28:56.080 mentioned that whole Christmas story for Glay Lamp thing talking 1:28:56.160 --> 1:28:58.639 about Burrow, But you know the truth is the truth 1:28:59.240 --> 1:29:02.080 is we look at this. I mean, this is a 1:29:02.080 --> 1:29:04.840 way to give hope to help the fan base. But 1:29:05.200 --> 1:29:07.400 again I don't mean to be the profit of doom. 1:29:07.479 --> 1:29:11.120 But unless there's something catastrophic that happens with everybody in 1:29:11.120 --> 1:29:13.360 front of the Bengals, this is still sort of a 1:29:13.439 --> 1:29:15.880 pride circumstance more than we're going to get to the 1:29:15.920 --> 1:29:20.639 playoffs this season. Yes, well, you. 1:29:20.640 --> 1:29:23.720 Got to win six straight, and so if you do that, 1:29:23.880 --> 1:29:26.120 I think they're going to be in pretty good position 1:29:26.439 --> 1:29:28.479 where you know, if you look at some of these 1:29:28.520 --> 1:29:31.120 playoff trackers, if you go six and now, you probably 1:29:32.200 --> 1:29:34.400 three fourths of the time seventy five percent of the 1:29:34.439 --> 1:29:37.720 time you get into the playoffs. And so considering they're 1:29:37.720 --> 1:29:40.519 three and eight, you take those chances all day long. 1:29:41.160 --> 1:29:44.360 And I will point out that they control some of 1:29:44.960 --> 1:29:47.360 their own destiny from a they can beat up on 1:29:47.400 --> 1:29:49.719 the Ravens. They blew the chance a couple of weeks 1:29:49.760 --> 1:29:53.120 ago to sweep the Steelers. But if you sweep the Ravens, 1:29:53.920 --> 1:29:57.120 the Ravens probably aren't winning the division. You could cost 1:29:57.160 --> 1:30:00.000 them the AFC North and either hind it to Pittsburgh 1:30:00.160 --> 1:30:03.560 get yourself right back in it. And so the Bengals 1:30:03.560 --> 1:30:07.439 still they don't control their own destiny. But it's still 1:30:07.479 --> 1:30:10.920 close enough. Now most people listening are gonna say, well, 1:30:10.920 --> 1:30:12.519 there's no way in hell, James, that they're gonna win 1:30:12.560 --> 1:30:15.840 six straight, and that's fine. They probably won't, but if 1:30:15.880 --> 1:30:19.160 they did, they would be in a pretty good spot 1:30:19.160 --> 1:30:22.719 and could be playing for more than pride come to January. 1:30:22.800 --> 1:30:25.559 But again, it does feel far fetched fairly, and they've 1:30:25.560 --> 1:30:27.479 lost eight of nine games without Joe Burrow. 1:30:27.640 --> 1:30:30.240 Listen, I have lived better through lowered expectations for most 1:30:30.280 --> 1:30:33.080 of my career as a human, James Rapine. So you know, 1:30:33.400 --> 1:30:35.519 when I'm looking at as a Bengals fan, it just 1:30:35.600 --> 1:30:39.200 fits in tuck as being a born and bred Bengals fan. 1:30:39.240 --> 1:30:41.439 So I just try to look through it. I'm always 1:30:41.439 --> 1:30:44.880 hopeful it's a nicety idea of maybe ruining a raven season, 1:30:45.000 --> 1:30:48.320 maybe a surprise the world, maybe strength and wins along. 1:30:48.360 --> 1:30:50.840 We'll see how it goes. Anything else before we let 1:30:50.880 --> 1:30:55.280 you go to handle a stuffed turkey day Thanksgiving James 1:30:55.400 --> 1:31:02.680 Raupine family, good Time, Thursday night Thanksgiving, Bengals Ravens Football Thursday, Idly, 1:31:02.760 --> 1:31:03.920 anything out, I don't think no. 1:31:04.760 --> 1:31:07.479 Well, I think the last thing is is the one 1:31:07.640 --> 1:31:10.960 reason why this Bengals offense has been so good over 1:31:11.000 --> 1:31:13.519 the past six games, five and a half games, but 1:31:13.600 --> 1:31:16.880 close to six games. When they've been good, they've been 1:31:16.920 --> 1:31:19.320 able to run the ball. Yeah, and Chase Brown has 1:31:19.360 --> 1:31:22.759 had one hundred plus yards from scrimmage in five straight games. 1:31:23.200 --> 1:31:25.640 And so him doing that again, him being involved off 1:31:25.720 --> 1:31:28.960 taking pressure off of Joe Burrow and running. He averaged 1:31:28.960 --> 1:31:32.040 five point six yards of carry last week. Doing that 1:31:32.040 --> 1:31:35.160 would be big for this offense. And so that's not 1:31:35.320 --> 1:31:37.800 key number one. Protect Burrow is always key number one, 1:31:37.800 --> 1:31:40.599 but key number two on offense is making sure Chase 1:31:40.600 --> 1:31:42.559 Brown has an effective bag. 1:31:42.720 --> 1:31:42.920 Yeah. 1:31:42.960 --> 1:31:44.880 I mean it's been nice to sort of have him 1:31:44.960 --> 1:31:47.720 shut people up a little bit about his productivity and 1:31:47.760 --> 1:31:50.240 not being there. We've seen him grow a good bit 1:31:50.280 --> 1:31:52.360 over the last two seasons. It's been pretty fun. So 1:31:52.400 --> 1:31:55.280 hopefully they can gel and get it going tonight. Thank 1:31:55.320 --> 1:31:57.400 you for making time. I am thankful and grateful to 1:31:57.479 --> 1:32:01.920 know you to loosely use the term friend, and you 1:32:01.920 --> 1:32:03.680 certainly are a friend of the show as well, So 1:32:03.720 --> 1:32:06.920 thank you for making time. And hopefully Bengals win tonight. 1:32:06.920 --> 1:32:08.120 We'll see how it goes later on. 1:32:09.160 --> 1:32:11.200 Likewise, Sterling, Happy Thanksgiving. 1:32:10.840 --> 1:32:13.280 Happy Thanks, Yeah you too, man, just stay away from 1:32:13.320 --> 1:32:15.800 the canned cranberries, you know what I mean, the ones 1:32:15.840 --> 1:32:19.320 that come out with it. It's true. It reminds me 1:32:19.320 --> 1:32:21.599 as a little kid and flop out onto the table 1:32:21.600 --> 1:32:23.719 that jiggle a little bit and not in a good way, 1:32:23.880 --> 1:32:26.080 and then you slice it off a little bit and 1:32:26.240 --> 1:32:29.160 you get a spoon. It's just I want it real cranberries, 1:32:29.200 --> 1:32:31.120 cook down and arguably a little booze in it, which 1:32:31.120 --> 1:32:32.400 I may or may not have already had. 1:32:33.040 --> 1:32:36.320 There you go, I'm down for the booze. I'll get 1:32:36.360 --> 1:32:37.120 some after the game. 1:32:37.600 --> 1:32:39.800 That'll be a clip. That's a cut for you. James 1:32:39.840 --> 1:32:43.559 Rapene is down with the booze. Cincinnati's Bengals talk certainly, 1:32:43.600 --> 1:32:46.639 Bengals Ravens tonight, James re Peen, Thank you more. Sterling, 1:32:46.680 --> 1:32:49.040 coming back here Home of the Hood, Day seven hundred 1:32:49.120 --> 1:32:55.839 WLW basted right, Brian deep Fried. Maybe put in the broiler. 1:32:56.280 --> 1:32:57.720 I'm not quite sure how you do it. Maybe you 1:32:57.720 --> 1:32:59.839 have a turkey roll, maybe you had the toe furky. 1:33:00.120 --> 1:33:02.040 I'm not sure how you're living. Hopefully you're living well, 1:33:02.080 --> 1:33:05.560 living right, Sterling, hanging out our man Bill Cunningham with 1:33:05.640 --> 1:33:08.200 the day off the Spine. Turkey Day hopefully of Thanksgiving 1:33:08.280 --> 1:33:10.280 Day a goodwin for you wherever you ar and whatever 1:33:10.320 --> 1:33:14.599 you're doing. I decided because you know, AI is our future, 1:33:14.960 --> 1:33:17.519 because AI is supposed to be our friend. 1:33:17.680 --> 1:33:18.080 AI. 1:33:18.560 --> 1:33:21.080 They say in ten to twenty years Elon Musk, a 1:33:21.120 --> 1:33:24.439 guy who knows just a little bit about technology, he says, 1:33:24.479 --> 1:33:27.400 work will become most likely for most of us optional 1:33:27.680 --> 1:33:30.599 we'll have a choice because the AI will do so much. 1:33:30.880 --> 1:33:34.559 So I thought i would take a look here because 1:33:34.560 --> 1:33:36.760 a friend of mine just recently was like having a party. 1:33:36.840 --> 1:33:39.760 They're like, I want to have some conversation topics in 1:33:39.880 --> 1:33:44.559 preparation for the get together, and I'm like, okay, what 1:33:44.600 --> 1:33:46.160 do you want me to do for you? And they 1:33:46.160 --> 1:33:49.280 were floating ideas asking me and what they had done 1:33:49.400 --> 1:33:52.920 is they'd us AI by asking about questions to ask 1:33:53.360 --> 1:33:56.040 so and some of them were in, some of them 1:33:56.040 --> 1:33:57.720 were not. But I mean, you know, you try to 1:33:57.800 --> 1:33:59.719 keep it light hearted, you try to keep it fun. 1:34:00.080 --> 1:34:04.120 So with the help of AI, and some of these 1:34:04.160 --> 1:34:05.960 may work, some of these may not. I'm going to 1:34:06.000 --> 1:34:08.120 open up the phones, give you a chance to sound 1:34:08.160 --> 1:34:11.400 off well, hopefully have some fun. And you know, I 1:34:11.400 --> 1:34:13.400 don't think we're going to solve all the world's problems. 1:34:13.720 --> 1:34:16.000 They might cause a few, hopefully have a good time 1:34:16.080 --> 1:34:18.800 five one, three, seven, four ninety seven, eight hundred the 1:34:18.800 --> 1:34:20.920 big one. First, if you're working, I appreciate you out 1:34:20.920 --> 1:34:23.639 there doing what you do, first responders or emergency room, 1:34:23.960 --> 1:34:27.120 gas stations, whatever restaurants, you name it, whatever you're doing, 1:34:27.520 --> 1:34:30.120 I'd love to hear from you on how the day's going. 1:34:30.200 --> 1:34:33.559 Hopefully people are treating you right that you're encountering. There's 1:34:33.560 --> 1:34:35.479 certainly a lot of nurses and doctors, a lot of 1:34:35.520 --> 1:34:38.559 people doing lots of different things, a lot of hotels 1:34:38.560 --> 1:34:42.280 and hospitality also a part of that. So here's one 1:34:42.360 --> 1:34:45.720 question that pops up first on the list here, which 1:34:45.720 --> 1:34:49.040 I think is interesting. It says, if you could invite 1:34:49.080 --> 1:34:53.839 any historical figure to Thanksgiving, who would it be? Okay, 1:34:54.439 --> 1:34:57.599 I mean, I wouldn't mind having a Thanksgiving with, say, 1:34:57.640 --> 1:35:01.200 the President of the United States, anyone, whether it's President Trump, 1:35:01.240 --> 1:35:03.519 any of the past. I think Lincoln would be great. 1:35:04.439 --> 1:35:07.040 I would like to have a and this isn't a side. 1:35:07.640 --> 1:35:10.560 I think it would be interesting to have a conversation. 1:35:11.960 --> 1:35:15.120 And this has it on there and I never mentioned it, 1:35:15.160 --> 1:35:18.120 but apparently the AI thinks like I do. Sometimes or 1:35:18.320 --> 1:35:20.920 maybe I do. Like the AI it says, if a 1:35:20.960 --> 1:35:23.599 turkey could talk, what would it say to us right now? 1:35:24.560 --> 1:35:26.760 If a turkey could talk to us right now, you think, God, 1:35:26.760 --> 1:35:29.920 I miss this holiday. They got my friends, but I 1:35:30.040 --> 1:35:33.959 might not escape till next year or maybe Christmas time possibly. 1:35:34.120 --> 1:35:36.439 I don't know for sure. I'm not sure what a 1:35:36.479 --> 1:35:38.760 turkey would say. But if they're still here and not 1:35:38.960 --> 1:35:41.280 on a plate in pieces and parts, or in an 1:35:41.320 --> 1:35:44.719 oven or in a friar at this point and it's speaking, 1:35:45.080 --> 1:35:46.599 I think it's probably going to say, what a good 1:35:46.680 --> 1:35:48.920 day of this is. I'm thankful to still be around 1:35:49.120 --> 1:35:52.479 my guess, my observation or hallucination, what do you think 1:35:52.520 --> 1:35:55.320 a turkey would say? I mean, if it's on the 1:35:55.360 --> 1:35:57.639 table in speaking, it's not done yet. I think that's 1:35:57.680 --> 1:36:01.640 a dead giveaway. And it's a totally different type of 1:36:01.680 --> 1:36:04.920 Thanksgiving that you might actually be dealing with that particular 1:36:04.960 --> 1:36:12.160 situation in time. I mentioned the traveling aspect of Thanksgiving. 1:36:12.520 --> 1:36:15.840 So what I'm wondering is this because I mentioned, you know, 1:36:15.920 --> 1:36:18.760 having Christmas time and other holidays at the beach, you know, 1:36:18.840 --> 1:36:21.880 sort of destination thing. I've had it when I was 1:36:21.920 --> 1:36:24.080 living in other places, and it was always odd because 1:36:24.120 --> 1:36:26.680 I want what I'm just doing this job innately. You 1:36:26.720 --> 1:36:29.559 often work a lot of holidays, and when you know, 1:36:29.600 --> 1:36:32.479 I had to leave here to go to other places 1:36:32.479 --> 1:36:34.599 for gainful employment, like I went to work in New Orleans, 1:36:34.640 --> 1:36:37.000 I was in Las Vegas and so on. So when 1:36:37.040 --> 1:36:39.400 you're away like that, your your circle of friends and 1:36:39.439 --> 1:36:42.240 your support. I mean, it is a friends giving kind 1:36:42.280 --> 1:36:45.240 of scenario, whether you're working or not, because that becomes 1:36:45.240 --> 1:36:48.439 sort of like your satellite family situation. And a lot 1:36:48.439 --> 1:36:50.679 of jobs, not necessarily all of them, but at least 1:36:50.680 --> 1:36:52.479 the ones I've been lucky enough to take part in, 1:36:53.160 --> 1:36:55.400 and even sometimes where I've worked. It didn't happen here 1:36:55.439 --> 1:36:59.160 this year, but working other holidays, they have made sure 1:36:59.200 --> 1:37:01.680 that people would you know, taken care of with like 1:37:01.720 --> 1:37:05.639 some type of throwdown meal, a situation or whatever, which 1:37:05.640 --> 1:37:08.320 has been pretty nice as well. If I could be 1:37:08.439 --> 1:37:13.080 anywhere to spend a Thanksgiving somewhere someday, I think it'd 1:37:13.120 --> 1:37:16.280 be nice, probably just generally closer to the equator, someplace warmer, 1:37:16.439 --> 1:37:20.840 but I think anywhere where there's family and friends where 1:37:20.840 --> 1:37:25.080 you can spend some time and have some togetherness and 1:37:25.200 --> 1:37:28.160 enjoy a meal together. I think every day probably is 1:37:28.240 --> 1:37:30.360 kind of like a Thanksgiving or could be, or maybe 1:37:30.439 --> 1:37:33.400 arguably should be five point three seven four nine seven 1:37:33.880 --> 1:37:37.160 eight hundred. The Big one your chance to get interactive. 1:37:37.240 --> 1:37:40.280 If you're streaming and talk back, click that microphone on 1:37:40.960 --> 1:37:44.320 mic deal on the iHeartRadio app and you can leave 1:37:44.320 --> 1:37:49.240 a message that way as well. I realize that holidays 1:37:49.240 --> 1:37:53.599 can be contentious in conversation situations. There are some movies 1:37:53.640 --> 1:37:57.320 that have sort of shown the oddities and the rarities 1:37:57.400 --> 1:38:00.400 or weirdness that can in fact take place in relation 1:38:00.560 --> 1:38:04.519 to I guess family get togethers in general. It's not 1:38:04.600 --> 1:38:06.840 just Thanksgiving. It could be a birthday party. It could 1:38:06.840 --> 1:38:10.439 be Christmas, it could be whatever. Some things maybe are 1:38:10.439 --> 1:38:13.680 off the table. What I'm wondering is is how do 1:38:13.720 --> 1:38:17.920 you navigate the conversation? Do you stay away from politics? 1:38:18.120 --> 1:38:22.120 These are contentious times. I was hoping that things would 1:38:22.160 --> 1:38:24.000 be better, but in some cases I think they may 1:38:24.040 --> 1:38:27.880 have been more a hostile In some cases, as time 1:38:27.920 --> 1:38:32.080 has gone on, maybe healthy conversation is good. But those 1:38:32.080 --> 1:38:34.000 are some of those things. Sometimes you just poke away 1:38:34.040 --> 1:38:36.840 and say, you know what, maybe next time or another time. 1:38:37.120 --> 1:38:38.760 This is one I would hope would be a good 1:38:38.760 --> 1:38:41.320 time just to get together and not have anything where 1:38:41.320 --> 1:38:46.559 stuff's going to be divisive or aggravating, frustrating or somehow 1:38:46.600 --> 1:38:49.760 angering at others. As we have different viewpoints on some 1:38:49.840 --> 1:38:53.519 basic things, but hopefully all wanting the same thing, which 1:38:53.560 --> 1:38:55.400 is for us to all, you know, get to the 1:38:55.439 --> 1:38:59.599 next level, live better, happier, freer, you know, have more 1:38:59.640 --> 1:39:02.439 options in our lives just in general, and just be 1:39:02.520 --> 1:39:05.320 thankful and grateful to be here with those around us, 1:39:05.320 --> 1:39:08.760 and to have the opportunities that we have in this 1:39:08.840 --> 1:39:11.160 nation compared to others. And certainly a lot of people 1:39:12.080 --> 1:39:15.479 out and about just hopefully you know, not drinking and driving. 1:39:15.880 --> 1:39:19.519 Get yourself a ride, get a designated driver. You know, 1:39:19.560 --> 1:39:22.320 there's a lot of different to places that are offering 1:39:22.400 --> 1:39:24.719 rides aside from the usual ride share things. Some cases 1:39:24.760 --> 1:39:26.760 they'll be free. You certainly don't want to be in 1:39:26.760 --> 1:39:30.280 a situation where the State Patrol, Cincinnati Police, or Erlang 1:39:30.360 --> 1:39:33.040 or wherever else you happen to be, Mason Montgomery, whatever. 1:39:33.800 --> 1:39:36.800 In a situation where you know, law enforcement ends up 1:39:36.840 --> 1:39:40.360 actually being your ride, that usually means that something has 1:39:40.400 --> 1:39:45.000 gone awrye earlier in your day. Generally the other thing, 1:39:45.080 --> 1:39:50.320 of course, is a lot of people. They find themselves 1:39:50.400 --> 1:39:54.760 maybe over consuming in the emergency rooms, and those that 1:39:54.800 --> 1:39:58.800 are in a first responder mode may also find themselves 1:39:58.880 --> 1:40:01.559 in situations where the they're having to go take care 1:40:01.600 --> 1:40:03.519 of some people, and we're glad that they're there. But 1:40:03.560 --> 1:40:06.280 a lot of times people will over indulge, they may 1:40:06.320 --> 1:40:09.600 get a little too stressed, and they may need a 1:40:09.600 --> 1:40:13.080 little help. So a lot of heart attacks, sometimes some strokes, 1:40:13.960 --> 1:40:15.880 those type of things, and let's hope in a couple 1:40:15.920 --> 1:40:18.160 of days it's not tomain or food poisoning or whatever 1:40:18.280 --> 1:40:21.040 else you want to call it. As people have leftovers 1:40:21.040 --> 1:40:23.120 that may have been left over a little bit too long, 1:40:23.200 --> 1:40:25.320 or something along those lines that sort of go that way. 1:40:26.360 --> 1:40:28.880 Somebody sent me this. It says the first president of 1:40:28.880 --> 1:40:33.200 Partner of Turkey was JFK. John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Yeah, that's right, 1:40:33.960 --> 1:40:36.920 as I understand it. They decided, as every president has 1:40:36.960 --> 1:40:40.320 done since it said, we will pardon these two turkeys. 1:40:40.360 --> 1:40:43.120 Then they usually go to like a petting zoo or 1:40:43.640 --> 1:40:46.719 I don't know, I don't Usually they're not like wild turkeys, 1:40:47.600 --> 1:40:50.400 be it the beverage or like I saw along Interstate 1:40:50.439 --> 1:40:54.800 seventy years ago driving back from out west enter around 1:40:54.800 --> 1:40:57.800 Saint Louis. I literally nearly drove off the road. I 1:40:57.840 --> 1:41:01.200 had only seen wild turkeys, which look different and have 1:41:01.320 --> 1:41:04.320 a little better ability to fly and roost than the 1:41:04.320 --> 1:41:08.559 commercial turkeys made for consumption outwardly. But it was a 1:41:08.600 --> 1:41:11.439 whole gaggle or a flock, or a herd or a 1:41:11.880 --> 1:41:14.240 I don't know what you call them in mass just 1:41:14.400 --> 1:41:17.240 off to the side of Interstate seventy. I had never 1:41:17.280 --> 1:41:19.559 seen it. It was like a whole group, a cluster. 1:41:20.240 --> 1:41:22.240 I'm not sure where they were going. I would have 1:41:22.280 --> 1:41:24.439 hitched allowed them to hitch a ride, but I was 1:41:24.479 --> 1:41:27.599 already preoccupied and I had to focus on where I 1:41:27.640 --> 1:41:30.559 was going and what else I had to do. If 1:41:30.600 --> 1:41:34.360 you are in fact having a feast today, whether you're alone, 1:41:34.400 --> 1:41:35.920 which we hope that you're not, but if you are, 1:41:35.960 --> 1:41:38.519 I understand it could be just another day for you working. 1:41:38.720 --> 1:41:40.599 I know I have at least one ant that I 1:41:40.600 --> 1:41:43.640 am hoping to swing by and see after because some 1:41:43.680 --> 1:41:46.040 plans had changed because there's some sickness in the family, 1:41:46.080 --> 1:41:48.240 so it's been moved to like a Friday or a Saturday, 1:41:48.240 --> 1:41:51.280 as I understand it, into some of us working sort 1:41:51.320 --> 1:41:53.519 of have to, you know, move the day as a 1:41:53.560 --> 1:41:57.880 result of that. Depending but an average meal, they say, 1:41:57.920 --> 1:42:02.480 a typical Thanksgiving dinner pack thirty four hundred and eighty calories. 1:42:03.320 --> 1:42:05.760 That's before my second or third or fourth piece of pie. 1:42:06.360 --> 1:42:09.320 That's before I'm grazing at the table with the chips 1:42:10.160 --> 1:42:13.120 and the you know, maybe some pretzels. I do try 1:42:13.120 --> 1:42:17.240 to be healthy. I try to, you know, like growing up, 1:42:17.240 --> 1:42:21.639 my mother always had like the fruit and vegetable tray, right, 1:42:22.000 --> 1:42:25.960 She'd have celery and carrots, and sometimes there be some 1:42:26.000 --> 1:42:27.880 dip which may or may not be the most healthy, 1:42:27.880 --> 1:42:30.960 and some random mother items like that, radishes and so forth, 1:42:31.000 --> 1:42:33.200 and she'd try to you know, make them look all 1:42:33.240 --> 1:42:35.760 pretty and everything else like that. I would fill up 1:42:35.800 --> 1:42:39.240 on all those things. But it's just around. If the 1:42:39.280 --> 1:42:43.160 food is there, I will consume it. And I have 1:42:43.240 --> 1:42:45.080 been told they're like, well, you're not like a big kid. 1:42:45.640 --> 1:42:47.320 When I was a kid, I was a little bigger 1:42:47.320 --> 1:42:50.000 than I am. Now I've gotten smaller over the years. 1:42:50.000 --> 1:42:52.040 Some of my friends have gotten gone the other way. 1:42:52.080 --> 1:42:54.920 They get bigger overtime, and then we get we get 1:42:54.920 --> 1:42:59.400 that big, oversized guide head too as we mature. So 1:42:59.439 --> 1:43:01.840 I'm trying to keep it together. But people will pack 1:43:01.880 --> 1:43:05.880 on some pounds seriously over these holidays. So the trick 1:43:05.960 --> 1:43:08.120 is to probably use that thing that most of us 1:43:08.120 --> 1:43:10.479 are talk growing up, which is most things are pretty 1:43:10.479 --> 1:43:14.080 good in moderation, right, So moderation is key. I have 1:43:14.120 --> 1:43:16.599 a problem with that because I like the turkey when 1:43:16.640 --> 1:43:18.880 it's fresh. I like a turkey sandwich. I like a 1:43:18.920 --> 1:43:22.560 turkey pop pie, I like a turkey hot shot. I 1:43:22.840 --> 1:43:25.960 will often I will just grab the turkey with a 1:43:26.000 --> 1:43:29.760 piece of cheese and on a sandwich. You can do 1:43:29.800 --> 1:43:33.599 it super deluxe. This is really what I enjoy the most. 1:43:34.000 --> 1:43:37.080 You take a good piece of rye bread and you 1:43:37.120 --> 1:43:39.400 get that and maybe a tiny bit of male and 1:43:39.439 --> 1:43:42.080 a little bit of turkey and maybe some pepper jack cheese, 1:43:42.479 --> 1:43:44.439 and then on the other side you get a little 1:43:44.439 --> 1:43:47.360 bit of the stuffing, maybe even put a little cranberry 1:43:47.360 --> 1:43:49.559 sauce on there, and then you can heat it up 1:43:49.600 --> 1:43:51.439 in the pan maybe a little bit, and brown it 1:43:51.520 --> 1:43:55.200 up a little bit and let that cheese melt. And 1:43:55.240 --> 1:43:58.120 then you're you're living large. And I'm in a room 1:43:58.200 --> 1:44:00.720 now with water and coffee and a whole lot of 1:44:00.760 --> 1:44:03.160 monitors and no food, and now I put myself in 1:44:03.200 --> 1:44:07.240 a situation where I'm killing myself with the hunger, other 1:44:07.280 --> 1:44:10.679 stuff to do. Oh, this is nice, Alice in northern Kentucky. 1:44:10.720 --> 1:44:12.639 That's all, she says. Alice, thank you for reaching out. 1:44:12.640 --> 1:44:15.759 At Stirling Radio on X says she watched the parade 1:44:15.760 --> 1:44:18.559 the day the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. She says, family 1:44:19.200 --> 1:44:23.519 had done. They do it every Thanksgiving. I promised to 1:44:23.560 --> 1:44:27.439 do it and have not done it in this point yet. 1:44:27.520 --> 1:44:29.800 I have given stuff away to help in years past. 1:44:30.479 --> 1:44:32.719 But the Thanksgiving Day race, a whole lot of people 1:44:32.920 --> 1:44:36.000 doing that, Western and southern ten k or the Chick 1:44:36.000 --> 1:44:38.360 fil a five K, a lot of kids and all 1:44:38.360 --> 1:44:40.040 the other stuff. That's a good way to start. And 1:44:40.120 --> 1:44:42.240 you burn those calories early, then you can eat and 1:44:42.280 --> 1:44:45.479 have it not be a problem later. I wonder how's 1:44:45.520 --> 1:44:48.519 your Thanking Thanksgiving?

Right now, 1:45:47.360 --> 1:45:51.200 what helped bring me to chase my dream of being 1:45:51.200 --> 1:45:55.200 on the radio for good or bad? Here is a 1:45:55.200 --> 1:46:01.160 little taste of WKRP in Cincinnati and one of the 1:46:01.200 --> 1:46:05.760 most memorable things that you could ever imagine in Supposedly, 1:46:06.080 --> 1:46:08.320 and I don't know if this is true, loosely based 1:46:08.880 --> 1:46:12.599 on another Ohio radio station in a promotion gone horribly wrong. Liam, 1:46:12.680 --> 1:46:14.400 Let's check this out. This is now. 1:46:14.439 --> 1:46:16.439 It's not time to go to our live remote Man 1:46:16.439 --> 1:46:18.720 on the scene at the Pinedale Shopping Mall for the 1:46:18.720 --> 1:46:23.920 big WKRP Turkey giveaway.

All we know for sure 1:47:01.760 --> 1:47:03.160 that in a very few moments they're going to be 1:47:03.160 --> 1:47:05.080 a lot of happy people out here. 1:47:05.920 --> 1:47:06.760 Now the crowd is. 1:47:07.720 --> 1:47:14.200 The crowd is uh, curious, but well behaved. And I 1:47:14.240 --> 1:47:18.280 think I hear something now, Uh the crowd is moving 1:47:18.320 --> 1:47:21.720 out into the parking area and oh yes, I can 1:47:21.800 --> 1:47:26.880 see it now. It's a it's a helicopter and it's 1:47:26.920 --> 1:47:30.960 coming this way. It's flying something behind it. I can't 1:47:31.000 --> 1:47:33.599 quite make it out. It's a large banner and it. 1:47:33.560 --> 1:47:37.640 Says, uh, heavy things. 1:47:40.000 --> 1:47:47.160 Killing from wy. 1:47:49.479 --> 1:47:51.360 Hey what a site? 1:47:51.400 --> 1:47:51.680 That is? 1:47:51.960 --> 1:47:52.759 One water site. 1:47:53.680 --> 1:47:56.080 A culter seems to be circling the parking area now, 1:47:56.160 --> 1:47:58.080 I guess it's looking for a place to land. No, 1:47:58.200 --> 1:47:59.839 something just came out of the mind of the helicopter. 1:48:00.040 --> 1:48:04.920 It's a dark object or him's a skydiver, humming tot 1:48:04.920 --> 1:48:06.840 to the earth from only two thousand feet in the air. 1:48:07.160 --> 1:48:16.640 The second to the third no hairshutes yet, can't be skydivers. 1:48:17.479 --> 1:48:18.639 I can't judge yet. 1:48:18.520 --> 1:48:18.960 What they are. 1:48:19.040 --> 1:48:23.479 But oh my god, they're talking. I'm going get this. 1:48:23.760 --> 1:48:25.280 Oh they're punching for the earth running. 1:48:27.479 --> 1:48:29.439 I just want you to win. Junial part are. 1:48:30.920 --> 1:48:32.920 Turn's running around pushing each other. 1:48:33.200 --> 1:48:34.160 Oh my jams. 1:48:34.520 --> 1:48:38.760 Oh the humanity people are rumming of bombs of the 1:48:38.760 --> 1:48:43.160 turkeys are hitting the ground like sets of web samans site. 1:48:43.360 --> 1:48:45.639 I don't know how much longer the patron is running 1:48:45.640 --> 1:48:48.519 for their lives. I think I'm going to stem in side. 1:48:48.720 --> 1:48:50.960 I can't stand here and watch this any moments, you know, 1:48:51.000 --> 1:48:56.320 I can't go in there preaching for their mothers and 1:48:56.320 --> 1:48:58.400 they hasn't been anything like that. 1:48:59.360 --> 1:48:59.960 Part a heart. 1:49:00.280 --> 1:49:08.080 I can holdlin division here Johnny. 1:49:05.120 --> 1:49:13.519 Last lastly, you're there lasses from there, Thanks for that 1:49:13.640 --> 1:49:14.640 on the spot. 1:49:14.439 --> 1:49:15.680 Report last. 1:49:18.520 --> 1:49:21.639 Just tuned in the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been 1:49:21.840 --> 1:49:27.320 bombed with not Turkey tell Them at eleven. 1:49:29.560 --> 1:49:32.840 W KRP in Cincinnati and the Great Turkey Drop. Yeah, 1:49:32.880 --> 1:49:36.200 we all learned something is a tiny sterling at the 1:49:36.200 --> 1:49:38.920 time watching that for the first time, I learned that 1:49:39.000 --> 1:49:41.280 the not all turkeys fly, or at least don't fly 1:49:41.400 --> 1:49:44.240 that well. And there's a difference between those wild turkeys. 1:49:44.280 --> 1:49:49.040 Besides the beverage, the consumer bird made to eat one 1:49:49.080 --> 1:49:50.800 of the best things ever. I find it hard to 1:49:50.840 --> 1:49:53.679 believe that it would be actually based on something real, 1:49:53.800 --> 1:49:57.320 but this is a weird real world and who knows. 1:49:57.600 --> 1:49:59.479 But that's one of those things that every year I 1:50:00.280 --> 1:50:03.840 wanna watch and give you an earful of and just 1:50:03.880 --> 1:50:07.799 imagine that circumstance. And here's the best part. Les nessmand 1:50:07.800 --> 1:50:11.960 there on the scene with his play by play reporting, 1:50:12.200 --> 1:50:16.600 sounding much like the Hindenburg broadcast, talking about the horrible 1:50:17.320 --> 1:50:20.120 nature of what happened there, giving you, you know, a 1:50:20.120 --> 1:50:23.080 bit by bit information as it was occurring. When things 1:50:23.080 --> 1:50:28.280 were going off the rails and quite sideways. The birds 1:50:28.360 --> 1:50:30.120 ended up the same way. I suppose that the flight 1:50:30.160 --> 1:50:31.840 would have been something and no animals, by the way, 1:50:31.880 --> 1:50:35.160 were hurt in the filming of the or the replaying 1:50:35.280 --> 1:50:39.000 of that segment of that classic w k RP broadcast 1:50:39.040 --> 1:50:41.920 in the Turkey drop there just unbelievable. And by the way, 1:50:41.920 --> 1:50:44.080 everybody went crazy when I was a kid growing up, 1:50:44.080 --> 1:50:49.720 they loved Lonnie Anderson and her character there, but I 1:50:50.120 --> 1:50:52.840 was all about Bailey. There was there was something more. 1:50:52.880 --> 1:50:54.760 I was a Bailey guy. It's sort of like if 1:50:54.760 --> 1:50:58.200 you look at Gilligan's Island, you were a Merryan guy 1:50:59.160 --> 1:51:00.880 or you were a Ginger guy, and I was more 1:51:00.920 --> 1:51:03.880 of a Marianne guy. I don't know why that is, 1:51:03.960 --> 1:51:06.120 but it's just the you know, the way we were 1:51:06.120 --> 1:51:09.640 put together, I suppose, just the same. But what a 1:51:09.640 --> 1:51:14.479 great show. Venus fly Trap, Donnie Fever, Andy Travis, of course, 1:51:15.400 --> 1:51:18.240 all those just just tremendous, and it really did. And 1:51:18.280 --> 1:51:20.320 I'm not the only one there. There is a whole 1:51:20.400 --> 1:51:23.760 generation or more of people who as a result of 1:51:23.800 --> 1:51:27.599 that show, or news radio or a number of others, 1:51:27.640 --> 1:51:29.760 not just by listening also, but see that's the thing 1:51:29.800 --> 1:51:32.920 listening to our Willie or Jim Scott and you know 1:51:33.000 --> 1:51:35.559 a bird bank in the day, and our man Trumpy 1:51:35.600 --> 1:51:39.240 who just passed recently, and Lance and all these guys 1:51:39.280 --> 1:51:41.840 growing up, you know, it gets you. We were with 1:51:41.880 --> 1:51:44.840 you everywhere you go and whatever you're doing, and we 1:51:44.840 --> 1:51:46.920 were thankful to have you as a part of this. 1:51:47.000 --> 1:51:49.280 There needs to be somebody else on the other side 1:51:49.280 --> 1:51:51.920 of this microphone, out of those earbuds or that speaker 1:51:52.080 --> 1:51:54.599 or whatever it is, you know, even on the podcast 1:51:54.840 --> 1:51:58.000 at the iHeartRadio app listening, because we all work in 1:51:58.080 --> 1:52:01.120 concert and it is a team kind of anaro. So 1:52:02.360 --> 1:52:04.679 I just want to say that listening to this radio 1:52:04.720 --> 1:52:06.880 station then ended up working here. I was driven to 1:52:06.920 --> 1:52:09.360 it because I was inspired by the magic that was 1:52:09.400 --> 1:52:13.320 happening McConnell, all those guys, and then to have an 1:52:13.320 --> 1:52:15.080 opportunity to do it. And as a really little kid 1:52:15.400 --> 1:52:18.920 also watching that WKRP thing. It just resonates today like 1:52:19.000 --> 1:52:21.639 nobody's business. Just all kinds of crazy, weird fun stuff. 1:52:21.800 --> 1:52:24.479 Five point three seven four nine seven eight hundred The 1:52:24.520 --> 1:52:28.520 big one. I'm kind of curious what is your Thanksgiving situation? 1:52:29.280 --> 1:52:32.240 Are you a fan of the stuffing in the bird 1:52:32.400 --> 1:52:35.200 or the dressing outside of the bird? Are you like me? 1:52:35.320 --> 1:52:38.559 Are you an anti giblet person, and I don't think 1:52:38.600 --> 1:52:41.679 a lot of birds. Now, turkeys may be different than chickens, 1:52:42.200 --> 1:52:44.920 but depending on where you get them. And some people 1:52:45.040 --> 1:52:47.040 like to go to like the turkey farm, and then 1:52:47.080 --> 1:52:49.840 you find yourself a bird and then they process the bird, 1:52:49.960 --> 1:52:52.439 which you know what that really means. But processing something 1:52:52.479 --> 1:52:56.400 is a cleaner, more sanitized version of taking care of it. 1:52:56.600 --> 1:52:58.360 So they butcher it up and then you bring it 1:52:58.400 --> 1:53:00.639 home and you either brind it or whatever you have 1:53:00.680 --> 1:53:04.240 to do is just sort of get through it. But 1:53:04.439 --> 1:53:09.240 I like the bird stuffing in dressing out. The giblets 1:53:09.240 --> 1:53:11.040 don't come in them all the time. In the cavity, 1:53:11.040 --> 1:53:13.639 it's usually in a bag. That's what the heart, the liver, 1:53:14.240 --> 1:53:17.800 the gizzard. Sometimes you get the turkey or chicken neck 1:53:17.800 --> 1:53:22.679 in there too. But and I mentioned this earlier because 1:53:22.840 --> 1:53:26.240 it's vivid to me. As a kid, I can recall 1:53:27.880 --> 1:53:32.559 having like the most anticipation ever to be able to 1:53:32.600 --> 1:53:36.320 have that big plate made with the mashed potatoes and 1:53:36.360 --> 1:53:41.760 the dressing or stuffing and the gravy and you know, 1:53:41.880 --> 1:53:45.680 the pumpkin pie or sweet potatoes or whatever else it 1:53:45.760 --> 1:53:48.360 is that you're into, and that big pile of turkey 1:53:48.600 --> 1:53:52.719 and everything on there. But I can recall digging into 1:53:52.760 --> 1:53:55.000 that and I'm like, what is that. That's a little 1:53:55.040 --> 1:53:57.320 weird chewy thing in that gravy, or that's a little 1:53:57.320 --> 1:53:59.639 odd flavor, and you know, it's sort of I don't 1:53:59.640 --> 1:54:01.200 know when and say gaming. I don't know what the 1:54:01.200 --> 1:54:02.760 word would have been as a child that I would 1:54:02.760 --> 1:54:04.840 have come up with. But it can be a little 1:54:05.200 --> 1:54:09.280 uncomfortable and when you're not expecting it. And my aunt 1:54:09.320 --> 1:54:13.040 and my mom both would sneak the giblets into that stuff. 1:54:13.040 --> 1:54:15.360 I'm like, do a little separate on the side. I 1:54:15.400 --> 1:54:17.400 don't need to eat the inners. I don't need to 1:54:17.400 --> 1:54:19.840 eat the organ meat, you know what I mean. It's 1:54:19.920 --> 1:54:22.240 just one of those things. Some people are all about it. 1:54:22.320 --> 1:54:24.560 Good for you have some do a little butter, a 1:54:24.600 --> 1:54:27.200 little garlic, whatever makes you happy. I do like the 1:54:27.280 --> 1:54:29.479 neck cooked upright, It's good. It's like oxtail in a 1:54:29.479 --> 1:54:35.920 different way. But but it's uh, it's traumatizing though, So 1:54:37.000 --> 1:54:40.360 maybe maybe I'm not alone. Since you don't see as 1:54:40.440 --> 1:54:42.640 much of the giblets as you might once used to 1:54:42.680 --> 1:54:45.400 have done. My guess is that I am probably in 1:54:45.440 --> 1:54:47.880 the majority who are not exactly A big fan of 1:54:47.880 --> 1:54:50.760 the pieces in parts stuffed into the bird. You want 1:54:50.760 --> 1:54:52.520 that out of there, then get the dressing in to 1:54:52.600 --> 1:54:54.480 sort of go along with it, so you know, just 1:54:54.480 --> 1:54:57.000 one of those things. I really do hope that your 1:54:57.080 --> 1:54:58.880 day has been good and we could keep you a 1:54:58.920 --> 1:55:01.760 little bit of company. It's a short week obviously for 1:55:01.840 --> 1:55:04.600 a lot of people. Black Friday tomorrow, a lot of 1:55:04.640 --> 1:55:08.120 shopping already going on. So whatever you're doing, I hope 1:55:08.160 --> 1:55:10.720 you find what you're looking for. I hope you get 1:55:11.280 --> 1:55:13.760 a great deal on it. I hope you can treat 1:55:13.800 --> 1:55:15.880 people like you'd hope to be treated, so people are 1:55:16.400 --> 1:55:18.520 nice to one another. I'm trying to be nicer. I 1:55:18.520 --> 1:55:20.960 mean that's my New Year's resolution probably the last five 1:55:21.040 --> 1:55:23.360 or six years, and it continues to be trying to 1:55:23.360 --> 1:55:26.920 be a better person, nicer, kinder, friendly, or more relaxed. 1:55:27.600 --> 1:55:32.000 I have sort of turned into I think the scene 1:55:32.320 --> 1:55:35.400 in Ferris Bueller's Day Off where the dad is driving 1:55:35.440 --> 1:55:38.040 through the neighborhood and people are driving wild and he's 1:55:38.120 --> 1:55:41.320 just making his way home and the kids are running 1:55:41.320 --> 1:55:43.320 through the neighborhood trying to get back to where they're 1:55:43.320 --> 1:55:45.960 supposed to be, and he's just motoring, minding his own business, 1:55:46.040 --> 1:55:48.640 taking his time, having a good time, relaxed and no 1:55:48.760 --> 1:55:52.440 rush and no anger, no irritation or whatever else. I've 1:55:52.440 --> 1:55:55.640 turned more into that guy than anything else as far 1:55:55.720 --> 1:55:57.880 as not being in a hurry to go nowhere fast 1:55:58.320 --> 1:56:00.560 and just allow people a little extra space and a 1:56:00.560 --> 1:56:03.120 little time, because I don't want to be angry. There's 1:56:03.280 --> 1:56:07.120 enough going on, at least today, at least maybe hopefully 1:56:07.120 --> 1:56:10.000 through the holidays. You take a deep breath, you relax 1:56:10.640 --> 1:56:12.600 and maybe you know, just live a little bit better. 1:56:12.600 --> 1:56:16.120 There's no need to be all tense and freaked out 1:56:16.360 --> 1:56:18.640 and everything else. I mean, there's enough going on in 1:56:18.680 --> 1:56:22.840 the world and it's a little unnerving to say the least. 1:56:23.040 --> 1:56:25.919 There'll be an update in news obviously about those guardsmen 1:56:25.960 --> 1:56:29.200 in d C who were a gunned down or shot anyway, 1:56:29.200 --> 1:56:31.400 they weren't gone down. They're still alive dealing with that, 1:56:31.560 --> 1:56:35.800 so details on that. More on a Bengals Burrow Chase 1:56:35.880 --> 1:56:39.280 and Company are man. Moe Egger is coming up next 1:56:39.320 --> 1:56:41.320 with the pregame sport talk and then a whole lot 1:56:41.320 --> 1:56:43.880 of hooday. I hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving back 1:56:43.880 --> 1:56:47.840 again tomorrow night. Talking Black Friday deals, weekend movies, eating better, 1:56:47.920 --> 1:56:51.440 living better, healthy through the New Year, holidays and all 1:56:51.560 --> 1:56:54.880 as well. That's tomorrow night here, and thanks to Willie 1:56:54.960 --> 1:56:56.560 for let me sit in and try to and have 1:56:56.640 --> 1:56:58.880 a good Thanksgiving with you here.
