1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: You want to be an American idiots.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 2: The weekend is here.

3
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 3: It is a massive sports weekend in Cincinnati. He doesn't

4
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 3: get any bigger than this. You have, of course, well,

5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow play or not play that debate. On Sunday

6
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 3: you have UC BYU feeling like for all the marbles

7
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 3: with the national Fox broadcast in town at Nippert Stadium.

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna look good there.

9
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 3: We've got UC and Inner Miami in the next round

10
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 3: of the MLS playoffs at TQL Stadium, winner take all,

11
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 3: and tonight you've got Elder Saint X. And it was

12
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 3: interesting as a Bengal fan watching and watching this develop

13
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 3: going well, they want to move it to pay cour,

14
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 3: which made a lot of sense, you know, as a Mason,

15
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 3: I to look at that.

16
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: Go okay, it's a few thousand dollars.

17
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 3: Hopefully the Ohio State High School Athletic Association gives them,

18
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 3: gives them a little bit of money back for their investment.

19
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 3: But yeah, seven thousand tickets. The demand is high. I

20
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 3: don't know how many they've sold at this point. I

21
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 3: forgot to check, but certainly more than seven thousand. And

22
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 3: they're gonna this pay Court tonight Okay, great, awesome. I

23
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 3: was surprised how quickly this came together. But it brings

24
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 3: up a bigger question, and that is didn't we, the

25
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 3: taxpayers of Hamilton County pay for the stage? So why

26
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 3: can't we use that more often?

27
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: On?

28
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 3: That is a representative state Rep. Adam Matthews, who is

29
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 3: in control and rules with an iron fist from Lebanon

30
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 3: to South Lebanon to Mason.

31
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: Adam Matthews, welcome back. How are you brother?

32
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: Always a pleasure to be here. Thank you so much

33
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: for having me on.

34
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 3: Thanks again. So let's jump into this. This is interesting

35
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 3: what this happened. You probably heard about it, and do

36
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 3: you have any affiliation with Saint X or Elder You

37
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: got skin in the game there.

38
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 2: I did. Actually, one of my core memories I was

39
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: winning against Cole Rain in the playoffs just like this

40
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 2: in two thousand and five. We went to overtime and

41
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: beat Coleraine twelve to nine in Paul and then Paul

42
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 2: Brown Stadium, and it was incredible. Yeah, that was on

43
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: the way to a state championship.

44
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 3: Let's face it, many of these young men and some

45
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 3: may go to play collegiately. For sure, NFL is a

46
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 3: pipe dream. But then from most of the athletes out there,

47
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 3: this will be a high point of their athletic career.

48
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 3: But imagine, I mean, how awesome is that. Getting to

49
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 3: play on an actual NFL turf has got to be

50
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,519
Speaker 3: and just you know, the locker rooms and everything, the

51
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 3: whole experience is is going to be something to remember

52
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,239
Speaker 3: the rest of their lives.

53
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 2: It's incredible and I'm so excited for these young gentlemen.

54
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, then you got involved legislatively the Bengals, and you know,

55
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 3: it's always in vogue to poke fun at the Bengals

56
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 3: and question their motives and operations and maybe spendthrift ways

57
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 3: in some cases. But you gotta also give congratulations too.

58
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 3: And it certainly isn't how quickly the franchise leaned into

59
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 3: hosting this game, and typically the Bengals don't do anything quickly.

60
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 3: They did this in like less than twenty four hours,

61
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: and also with the county, and so credit certainly is

62
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 3: due there. But what do you want to do legislatively?

63
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I will act that. Thank you so much to

64
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 2: the Bengals from the team. Thank you that those in

65
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,079
Speaker 2: the local county commission that they this happened as well.

66
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: And this should be a model of what goes forward

67
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 2: if we're going to have tax payer step off and

68
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 2: fund these very large investments you have up at the Browns,

69
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: they had asked for one hundreds of millions of dollars.

70
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: And even here in Mason we've seen something similar of

71
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Open had just been used for one week.

72
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 2: It became a two week tournament and has been doing

73
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: really well. But it's now also back in October host

74
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: of the girl State Finals, and it's now open for

75
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: more tournaments. It's going to be open to the community

76
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 2: for a pro shop, for the court, for things like that.

77
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 2: And if we're going to have these huge professional sports venues,

78
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: there should be a way for that to come at

79
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: functional costs to the community for these types of venues.

80
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: Are looking at legislation on making sure that that can

81
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: happen and be fair to the owners. You don't want

82
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 2: to say it's a football situation, and you know, wild

83
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: card weekend lines up obviously, if the Dingles are hosting,

84
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 2: you can't have a high school game the night before.

85
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: But if it works out that it's Friday night, things

86
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: are fine. You can have a game on Sunday. Wonderful

87
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 2: let's let's have that happen, and we're going to work

88
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: with the USSAA, work with the professional organizations and see

89
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: what we can do.

90
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 3: But you also have the contracts that are would this

91
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 3: I don't know a contract law, I'm not an attorney.

92
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: How would that work?

93
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 3: If you have a contract that says, hey, you can

94
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 3: only have so many dates, whatever it might be, how

95
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 3: does this override that?

96
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 2: So we are looking at making legislation that anything going forward.

97
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 2: Anytime that they come with a handout asking for hey,

98
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 2: we need taxpayer subsidies to build a new stadium or

99
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,479
Speaker 2: renovate a new stadium. If you're not using it for

100
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: your professional purpose, there's other types of reasonable uses out

101
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 2: to the community should be part of that conversation, and it.

102
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 3: Would be at market rate obviously, or whatever that looks like.

103
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 3: Obviously the Bengals aren't charging market rate for the stand

104
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 3: because it's too high school enterprises.

105
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: They could never afford that.

106
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 3: So how do these how do you do you scale

107
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 3: that legislatively?

108
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: Then? Right, so we would look and see if there's

109
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 2: a way to smooth it out over because I'm grateful

110
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 2: to the Bengals. I think the tickets are fifteen dollars

111
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 2: for tonight and to cover you know, there's still people

112
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: working the gate, there's still people working concessions. It's more

113
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 2: than just turning the locks off for the day and

114
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: letting people come in. And so we need to make

115
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: sure that things are balanced. And what we're going to

116
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 2: start as a negotiation place is, uh, they get not

117
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 2: market rates for the use of the venue, but what

118
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 2: it would have been had it been at Mason High School.

119
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 2: And see can it be within twenty percent of what

120
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 2: it would have than at Mason High School? And see

121
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: if either the state subsidizes on the front end or

122
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: if that's part of the consideration when we are deciding

123
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 2: whether or not protect their dollars to go into the

124
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 2: renovation or the expansion.

125
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: Okay, got it.

126
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 3: So this is just a professional stadiums, not not amateur

127
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 3: stadium paid public amateur stadiums like the Cleveland Brown Stadium.

128
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 2: Correct, exactly, like the Cleveland Brown Stadium.

129
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 3: Big oh, yeah, you don't want to fund the amateur

130
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 3: teams up in Cleveland. So it's a different thing. And

131
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think there's there's a lot of stadium

132
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: you think. Okay, well, Cincinnati, Columbus Cleveland, but you know Dayton, Toledo,

133
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 3: Youngstown they have I don't know how much public money

134
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: are those facilities, but that's a lot, right.

135
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: There's there's conversations all over there I know of. I

136
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: think right across the border in Butler County they're looking

137
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: at a semi professional or amage or minor league hockey facility.

138
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 2: That would be great for the community as well. So

139
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 2: anything that we can do to build those types of

140
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: Friday night lights or those types of touch points for

141
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: the community to come rather than just the using taxpayer

142
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 2: dollars for stadiums where the cheap seats are over one

143
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: hundred and.

144
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 3: Some dollars, seems like, you know, it'd have to be

145
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 3: a big rivalry game, but getting with all the leagues

146
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 3: in Cincinnati, you sell everything else. Is to line up

147
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 3: a marquee game every Friday where the Bengals aren't playing,

148
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 3: and do that and do it on the regular I

149
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 3: think that'd be amazing.

150
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 2: It would be really neat. And you see both the

151
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: teams playing tonight and you so this the ticket sold

152
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 2: out in forty two minutes while the kids were still

153
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 2: in class. And there are two all boys schools and

154
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 2: each Friday they sell out their ten thousand stadiums. You

155
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 2: knew that there was going to be something big.

156
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know the social opportunity you could get

157
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 3: a Friday night passed me on, be a season ticket

158
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 3: holder if you want to and see all the high

159
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 3: school games.

160
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure that would appeal to some folks. Yeah.

161
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 3: The side of this thing is the money factor, because

162
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: money's always a concern. Representative Adam Matthews. You know some

163
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: of these you may not get twenty thousand there like

164
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 3: we're going to get tonight. But if you got ten

165
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 3: thous is that enough to offset the costs of keeping

166
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: the lights on and keeping the stadium open?

167
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: And if not, isn't that back on the taxpayers? Does

168
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: that make sense? Right?

169
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: So you'd have to look at that balance to make

170
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 2: sure that the money makes sense because not just the

171
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: lights on, make sure that the harm of the field,

172
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: make sure that the workers are there, and it will

173
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 2: have to make some tod of balance, which is why

174
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 2: we're work on this legislation with say, with the pro

175
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 2: stadiums and with the professional owners.

176
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's got to be a balance.

177
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 3: Theres like you know, a couple of Division three schools

178
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 3: or schools where you're not going to get that much attendance.

179
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 3: You know, it doesn't make sense to have it at

180
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 3: paycre or something like that just to give kids the experiencing,

181
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 3: and that's a substantial cost to the already burden taxpayers

182
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 3: of Hamilton County. We don't want to go down that road.

183
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 3: Correct tonight should pay for it. I would think it

184
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 3: should be at ten dollars parking. I don't know what

185
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 3: tickets are, but ticket sales are awesome despite the weather

186
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 3: that's going to be extremely bad. But I don't think

187
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 3: kids care. But I think you know, if you're getting

188
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 3: to play at pay Corps and your kids out there

189
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 3: or you know, relatives saying I just a fan of

190
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 3: the school. I know a lot of elder and sex

191
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 3: grads are going to go tonight just because it's pay Corps,

192
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 3: Brian Combs being one of them. So that'd be kind

193
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 3: of fun. What's the timeline for getting this done.

194
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 2: We just went through a marathon session to finish out

195
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 2: the House voting for twenty twenty five, so we will

196
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 2: be back with legislation in January February to get this

197
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 2: really working.

198
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: Okay, good, that's awesome.

199
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, taking some time off after I don't know what

200
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: just the what the hell just happened with the CBD thing.

201
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 3: I mean I followed closely, more closer than anyone, and

202
00:09:55,160 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 3: I still don't understand all the imaginations and levers and

203
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 3: trip wires and everything else that was set up, and

204
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 3: why how this thing got so sideways in such a

205
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 3: short period of time when it's coming to when it

206
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 3: comes to CBD, sash THHC and fuse beverages, it seems

207
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 3: to me like I don't there's not much difference beween

208
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 3: THHC and alcohol because you're drinking it for an effect.

209
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 3: I don't know why we have to get rid of one,

210
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 3: especially as populaters. Is that seems to be really anti business,

211
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 3: anti small business to me, and also anti choice.

212
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 2: And part of this the confusion, mean you said you're

213
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 2: afraid that the going sideways all at once was we

214
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 2: had had through the house something that would allow your

215
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 2: five milligrams ten milligram drinks, whether it's at Ryan Geist

216
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 2: or fifty West or elsewhere, to be bought on site

217
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: and taken home. And while it goes through the house,

218
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 2: conversations over to the Senate, and the Senate conversations. The

219
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 2: federal government made some changes that made a phase out

220
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 2: over the next year to get rid of these, and

221
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: so what we had to do in the Ohio state

222
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 2: houses we can't go much further than the feds two

223
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 2: and so that is what the final product is is

224
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 2: matching what the federal government.

225
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the Fed. The Fed forcing your hands on

226
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 3: that because federal law. But at the same time, I

227
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 3: just there was no impetus for this, and you know,

228
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 3: the idea of you know, you're I know, you're around them,

229
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: but like Nancy Pelosi and you know, well, we got

230
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 3: to pass the bill to see what's in it.

231
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 1: It's it's more the same.

232
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 3: As much as we talk as conservatives talk about changing

233
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 3: the government, that seems to be the same thing that hey,

234
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 3: we snuck this in here at the last minute. Trump

235
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 3: signed it in the law, and wait, what do we do.

236
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 3: We just eliminated it in industry. That's literally saving the

237
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 3: craft beer people in Ohio because fewer people are drinking

238
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 3: craft beer, more are drinking the THC beverage. It's clear

239
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 3: there's consumer demand for it. I don't think the public

240
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 3: risk is any greater than alcohol, and clearly many Ohioans,

241
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,319
Speaker 3: Kentucky Indians want the THC and fused beverages the way

242
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 3: they are. Do you think there's hope in the next

243
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 3: year that maybe we come up with a better a

244
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 3: better way to do this from the federal level.

245
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 2: I think that there needs to be some transparency. I

246
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 2: know that you, as you mentioned, this was part of

247
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 2: a long late night negotiation on the federal government to

248
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 2: get it back open after the Democrats were not coming

249
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 2: to the table in the Senate and the government the

250
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 2: government needed to turn back on. So yeah, thick in

251
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 2: at the last minute. And uh, but as things continue,

252
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 2: and as you hear from the constituents like you or

253
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 2: like others, I do think that the federal government is

254
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 2: probably going to revisit this.

255
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: I would hope.

256
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 3: So they're going to have to final point something else

257
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 3: you just got through and I wanted to circle back around.

258
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 3: And I don't know much about. It's called the Patient

259
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 3: Protection Act, and this is your legislation. It targets high

260
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 3: risk medications, and that is drugs defined with at least

261
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: a five percent chance of severe at verse side effects

262
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: that could lead to death or infection or And this

263
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 3: has to do with mail order drugs.

264
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: Well, why this what's this?

265
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 3: Is this legislation about abortion pills basically or no, this medication.

266
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 2: Is about any type of medication where like you said

267
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 2: five percent, and we saw the terrible story out of

268
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 2: Washington State where a college student was getting antidepressive medications telehealth,

269
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: no no doctor oversight other than their telehealth, so they

270
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 2: never got checked on. When he complained to the organization

271
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 2: that was prescribing these drugs, they're like, well, we'll just

272
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 2: up your dosage. And eventually he died by suicide. And

273
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 2: now there's a wrongful death claim in all of this.

274
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 2: And we have seen similar things. We just start We're

275
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,439
Speaker 2: not even through picking up the pieces from the opiate epidemic,

276
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: which was similar. We've had other medications, and some opponents

277
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: are are focused thing on abortion pills, and there are

278
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: some studies along this, but any type of medication, we

279
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: want to have a stated of care that if you're

280
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: playing a board game and you roll the dice, and

281
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 2: if if you're rolling the dice and you roll a three,

282
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: and that means you're going to have organ failure, septist

283
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 2: or sent to the hospital with tim or Jane or infections,

284
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 2: that's pretty high odds. And this isn't banning any medication.

285
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 2: It just says before you get something that is one

286
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 2: out of twenty sending you to the hospital, you just

287
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 2: need to see a doctor before and then have a

288
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 2: doctor check on you afterwards.

289
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, I see what you're saying there. But you know,

290
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 3: the claim though, is a what a five percent mortality rate?

291
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 3: That there aren't any drugs that have a five percent

292
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 3: mortality rate that would that would never forget through through trials.

293
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 2: Uh, there there have been, and sometimes we are we

294
00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 2: see this afterwards where uh would you have an FDA trial?

295
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 2: It is where you have people taking the medication clinically

296
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 2: according to every single rule versus how people actually are

297
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 2: using it right, and then that that difference can get

298
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 2: to have this type of danger.

299
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 3: Well you can, I mean, you know, op, it's a

300
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 3: great example of that. You can become addicted, and we've

301
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 3: cracked on that and obviously, but I mean the thing

302
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 3: if you're talking about this is somehow a product liability thing.

303
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 3: Oh hi, we already have malpractice laws and state boards

304
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 3: and FDA oversight and all that stuff, and of course

305
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 3: litigation as well. Doesn't that balance things out?

306
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 2: So you have both on the front and the backside.

307
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 2: Just in medication, you do things that are that help

308
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 2: you and then stick some problem afterwards. This is a

309
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 2: standard of care to make sure that you're getting good

310
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 2: care on the front end. Malpractice is only after things

311
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 2: have already gone bad. Okay, So we are making sure

312
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: that both you have a good dinner. This care. We

313
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 2: are bolstering the relationships between the patient and the doctor. Hey.
