WEBVTT - 3-25-26 Scott Sloan Show 0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:02.160 I don't want to be an a Manicanity. 0:00:03.480 --> 0:00:06.840 It's got a Solon show on seven hundred WOLW twenty 0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:09.800 four hours before the Grand Show with the Holy grail 0:00:09.840 --> 0:00:12.399 Banks Opening Day twenty twenty six on the Home of 0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:13.800 the Red seven hundred WW. 0:00:13.880 --> 0:00:15.440 It can't wait for it. 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:17.640 Gonna cost you a little bit more to get downtown 0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:20.200 for the Fidling Market opening Day parade or the game itself, 0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:22.880 as gas today costs more than it has in nearly 0:00:22.920 --> 0:00:26.079 four years. Lowis Price for you is about three twenty 0:00:26.160 --> 0:00:28.840 six in Hamilton according to gas Buddy, but the average 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:31.840 is now very close to four dollars a gallon, which 0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:34.159 is on par with the national average. So we have 0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:36.440 a Ran shutting down the Straight of hor Moves. That's 0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:40.080 the problem. We have an explosion yesterday at a major refinery 0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:43.240 in Texas just outside of Houston, and the switch to 0:00:43.320 --> 0:00:45.760 summer blended fuel all happening at the same time. The 0:00:45.840 --> 0:00:49.080 question is will we and could we see five dollars 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:52.560 a gallon gasoline on? That is Dan Eberhard, Danzen Oil 0:00:52.600 --> 0:00:55.120 and gassingercy Inside with Canary and Everhard Capital. 0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:58.080 He's actually Landman. Landman is on the show Dan Good morning. 0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:01.120 How are you good. 0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:02.320 Good morning, Good morning. 0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:03.480 I'm doing well. 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:05.880 By the way, I'm sure presumably you've seen the show 0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:08.880 uh Landman, which is one of the best TV shows 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:10.720 Tyler Sheridan. You just could continue to hit it in 0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:12.920 the park. But how accurate is a lot of stuff 0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:13.600 that happens in there. 0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:18.480 I think it's I mean drama dramatized, but I mean 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:20.679 I would say it's accurate, but it's more like, you know, 0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:24.640 there's weeks and weeks of normalcy and then an episode 0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:25.280 not back to. 0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:28.520 Right. 0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:31.240 Yeah, because I mean, I mean, if your life was 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.440 actually like Tommy, your head would explode. I mean, there's 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:36.240 no human It's just you can't have that much coming 0:01:36.280 --> 0:01:37.919 at you when one day it's impossible. 0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:41.520 Oh yeah, yeah, no, it's it's you know, look, the 0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:44.160 oil business is a business like any other, but just 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.400 it it gets chaotic at time. This is this is 0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:47.920 one of them. 0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:48.240 Yeah. 0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:49.880 Yeah, it's a great it's a great watch. 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:52.080 Yeah. 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.200 And and of course you know then there's the ex 0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:56.880 wife reality too, but that's that's probably true in life 0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:01.360 as well. So Dan, you know, I know that you've 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:02.880 been doing this for a long time and been covering 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.320 energy markets for decades. So put it on a scale 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.200 of one to ten, How serious is this hor Mooz 0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:10.919 crisis compared to others disruptions you've seen in your career? 0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:14.160 Oh, I mean this is probably a twelve. I mean 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:17.000 this is I think this is a bigger deal. You know, 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:20.239 I've been kind of going back to these seventy foil shocks, 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:22.560 and for the world, I think it's a bigger deal. 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.519 For the US, I think it's not as big of 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:27.240 a deal because of cracking and we are more self 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:30.720 sufficient than we were. But look, the news stories are 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:33.560 mostly about the straight of hor Moods, which is extremely important. 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.720 But something that I feel like at least slightly being 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:41.240 lost here is so they're taking an infrastructure there. You know, look, 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:45.040 Middle Eastern production is down about ten million barrels a day, 0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:47.600 and I think that some of this infrastructure is going 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.120 to take years to rebuild. 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:53.720 Years to rebuild, which means four dollars gallon gasoline is 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:54.200 here to stay. 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:58.000 Is that you're saying, No, I think in the open 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:00.519 for Moods, I think we'll see guys lean praise is 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.960 fall a gallon again in the US within two weeks. 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:06.880 But I think for Europe this is this is a 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.520 bigger problem for European but it's a pretty big prompt 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:11.160 the entire. 0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:14.760 If we actually de escalate, Dan, you're breaking up a 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.040 lot right now. Let me I'll reset for a second here. 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.359 Maybe you can get the higher ground, get a better sell. 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.840 We saw Brent crude hit one hundred dollars a barrel 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:24.720 early this month of the first time in four years. 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:26.760 Uh one, twenty six is peak. 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:29.600 The closure has been called the largest energy supplied to 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:32.760 our disruptions, you said since the nineteen seventies. I don't 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:34.880 think that's overhyped at all. But if we get to 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:39.080 one fifty a barrel, we're talking five dollars gasoline. What's 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.320 the reality this summer here in Cincinnati, in the tri 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:42.360 State for that to happen. 0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:47.000 No, I think I think we're you know, four dollars 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:50.040 a gallon. I think we hit a demand destruction at 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.040 five dollars a gallon. I think we're looking at people 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:55.960 trying to, you know, use eight to ten percent less gasoline, 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:57.560 which is a lot of trips not happening. 0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:00.960 Yeah, I think the CEO of United said that. You 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:04.240 CEO of United just said that our gas prices are 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.200 probably going to go up twenty percent. Your ticket costs 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.080 go up twenty percent basically, and they're going to spend 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.320 eleven billion dollars on fuel this year. So if you 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:13.400 have a trip plan, you better book it right now 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:15.960 because you're if you wait till the last minute, the 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:17.400 cost is going to go through the roof. 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:19.799 Yeah. No, I think that we're going to be seeing 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:22.279 that all all over the economy. And like I said, 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:24.760 you know, every everything is the fact that you know, 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:27.880 the price of rubber, the price of your Amazon delivery, 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:29.839 the price of your over, the price of your plane ticket. 0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:33.160 Oil factors into everything. So it's something we should all 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:35.720 watch out for. And I think it if this doesn't 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:38.360 end soon, we're going to see consumers tighten their belt 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:38.640 a little. 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:39.440 Yeah. 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:42.440 Dan, you mentioned that, you know, the hormones closure doesn't 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:44.440 really affect the US as much because we produce so 0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:47.280 much of our own oil, but experts kind of push 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:49.880 back on that and saying that it's because it's it's 0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:52.240 a global oil market. Everything goes into the same kettle, 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:53.840 so to speak. No matter where it comes from from 0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:55.640 the Earth, it all goes in the same supply. So 0:04:56.040 --> 0:05:00.880 if something goes wrong anywhere prices go up everywhere, and 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:04.160 you mentioned also fracking and of course alternate fuel sources 0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:06.680 and the premium basin. When we're drilling baby drill, we 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:08.719 have venezuela as well. How much is that I'll set this. 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.480 Well, I you know, I do venezuela thing will help 0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:14.000 us in the long term. I don't think it's a 0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:16.800 fix for this because they need infrastructure to it. Yeah, 0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:19.279 that takes time and money, but I do think Look, 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:20.760 you know, I pushed back a little bit on what 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:24.039 you just said, because there's two prices for world oil 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:26.880 is thought of in WTI and bread, right, there are 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:30.400 two different prices, and the US market is mostly self contained. 0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:32.680 We import about eight percent of our oil, A lot 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.480 of that actually comes from Canada. The US is largely 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.080 self contained. Otherwise this will be worse right now for US? 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:41.600 Yeah, yeah, I mean I guess if we're self contained, 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:43.400 so it would be worse. It hits us less, but 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.840 that that gives our economy a distinctive advantage then too, 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.400 if we have a reliable supply of oil, and granted 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:51.000 our prices will go up just just because it's going 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:52.880 to but maybe not as the rest of the world. 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:55.240 That gives us a pretty strategic advantage. 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.400 Then, oh no, I think this is relative to Europe. 0:05:58.400 --> 0:05:59.960 This is good for us. And then one of the 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.240 one of the things not being covered is the oil 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.279 price really affects the price of fertilizer, which is actually 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:08.720 a very big deal in the African economy, and they're 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.760 going to be hit very negatively by by all of this. 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.800 He's Dan Eberhart, oil gas industry insider on the show 0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:18.440 this morning. And the reality of five dollars a gallon gasoline, 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.160 we could see it the summer is what a lot 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:21.440 of experts are saying right now. 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:22.320 And who knows. 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.360 I mean, again, our supply is much better than the 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.000 rest of the world ward and again we love drill 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:30.640 Baby drill because of that too. Is they keep cutting 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.600 the straight of her moose off every few years, and 0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:35.240 this is what winds up happening. And it's not just 0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:38.560 a physical ball play, but I think it's interesting too. 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:41.560 The inside baseball thing here is insurance withdraw You know, 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.880 there are risk premiums have gone up four or five times, 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:46.920 meaning the outcome for cargo flow is largely the same 0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:48.800 as a physical blockage. Can you lay that out for 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.320 our listeners who and maybe myself, we don't really understand 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:52.200 the insurance angle here. 0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:56.960 Sure, typically the insurance is is maybe three or four 0:06:57.040 --> 0:07:00.920 percent of a shipment, and these oil tinkers very uh 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:02.760 you know, I'll to one hundred million, one hundred and 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:05.680 fifty million barrels of oil. So these are these are 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.080 giant investments for people that are very expensive to ensure. 0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:11.720 That insurance through the straight and pour moves is now 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.800 on my understanding, costing fifteen to sixteen percent of cargo 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.840 instead of three to four percent. And the insurance companies 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.800 don't really they're they're trying to price the people so 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.640 that they don't take the voyage, not so they take 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:24.720 the voyage and take the money. 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:28.520 Yeah, obviously the risk goes up, the cost of insurance 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:29.800 is going to go up as well. And that's just 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.240 one of those unseen add fees that that that we 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:34.600 all pay for when we go to the pump. 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:35.000 Yeah. 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:37.440 No, look this this it reverb rates to the cost 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:40.800 of everything and it's driving everything out. Another point I'll 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:42.880 make is, you know, in the US, we spend three 0:07:42.960 --> 0:07:47.120 or four percent of our consumer spending is on energy, 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:49.680 and a lot of third world country it's something like 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.120 nine to eleven percent. So though you'll see for those folks, 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.240 it's gonna it's gonna hit even even worse. 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:57.200 Yeah, uh, Dan, I do a lot of my good thinking, 0:07:57.240 --> 0:07:58.680 if you can call it that, on the toilet. I 0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:01.800 know about you, but I had a kind of a said, 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:04.200 you know, we have the Panama Canal and I'm looking 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.000 in my head in my mind, and I'm picturing the 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:07.920 strain of horor Moves, which is like a peninsula just 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.440 kind of juts out there, and the problem is there's 0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:13.080 a choke point and Iran can easily shut it down 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.080 by attacking any ships that go through there. So it's 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:18.520 very pretty narrow through about thirty miles wide. If we're 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:21.520 going to circumvent that. Now, the terrain from Google Earth 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:26.560 looks pretty intimidating. There's those mountains and everything else, and 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:28.760 it's certainly not the same situation as we did in Panama. 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:30.520 But I'm trying to think of an alternative. It's like, 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:33.480 is there a way that those Gulf states can can 0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:36.720 do a pipeline or something that prevents us from happening 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:38.520 in the future that seems like be the best bad 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:40.880 Is that a problem that's unsolvable. 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.479 I mean, in the long term, you could have a pipeline, 0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:46.360 but the problem is that you know, pipeline is going 0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:49.760 to take within years to build. Yeah, it's not something 0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:51.199 that can be done in ninety days at all. 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.400 Right, Well, that would be far more for future proofing. 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.760 Right at some point the Gulf States, who are pretty 0:08:56.800 --> 0:08:59.480 much united against Iran right now, is the rest of 0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:01.640 the Middle East. It seems that that'd be a good thing. 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:03.320 That was like, hey, listen, if we just start doing 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:05.800 pipelines now and it's going to take thirty years to build, sure, 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.880 but who knows what that nation's going to look like 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:10.640 in thirty years. It could be worse than we have 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:12.720 right now. It seems like that'd be a good hedge 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:13.240 against the bet. 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.640 Yeah, that's the scary thought that it could be worse. 0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:18.199 I think it would be a good head But I 0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:20.120 think if somebody's got to be thinking five to ten 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.120 years in the future, not about the next ninety days 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:25.680 for that to happen, and it has happened. 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:26.200 I forgot. 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:29.000 We're living in the in the day and age of 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:33.720 investing groups of course, and sharks and everything else, and yeah, 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:36.760 we don't even think about the next quarter. We're thinking 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:38.800 about the next day right now, let alone thirty years 0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:40.960 from now. There's no long term planning in any business. 0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:43.040 I forgot, I forgot what year I live in here 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:46.960 for a second, there, Dan, So the it's about twenty 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:49.679 million dollars, twenty million barrels a day, I believe is 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:52.560 the number. It's about twenty percent of global petroleum consumption 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:54.880 that goes through the Strait. And I mentioned there few 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.480 pipeline alternatives there can bypass it. So are there any 0:09:57.480 --> 0:09:59.800 of the workarounds here? I mentioned you taking a kind 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:04.760 of dig baby dig lay pipe. 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.599 In the long term, US producers can produce more, in 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:09.800 Saudi Arabia can produce more, but again that's something that 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:12.160 takes time. The way that I look at the problem 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:15.480 is it's like a twenty percent of supply problem, and 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.520 the buttons of the US government has are like one 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.960 percent button. So I mean, we can do, you know, 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:22.880 release the strategic particularly and reserve it coutentially the thing 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.640 that I've been advocating for to spend the national gas 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:29.120 tax for ninety days or six months. There's different levers 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:31.800 the US government has that it can pull, but I 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:34.200 think those are are just frankly not big enough to 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:35.360 solve the problems in the world. 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.200 Yeah, Dan, I know you're you're a pro Trump guy, 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:42.120 yourself a Republican, And I read something or you said, 0:10:42.160 --> 0:10:44.840 you warned that steel chairs make the industry less competitive 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:45.440 against opek. 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:47.240 How does steel relate to what we're talking about. 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.920 Here, Well, you know, he goes he goes into the 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:54.760 drilling process, the wellheads that we sell, cantry and the 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.720 drilling you know, drilling rigs and all this stuff are 0:10:57.760 --> 0:10:59.840 all you know, you have metal components, so to because 0:10:59.880 --> 0:11:01.880 the battle goes up and makes the. 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:06.240 Yeah that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, okay, I get I 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:07.920 get the connection there. Yeah, because you've got to pay 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.040 if you're you're you know, it's not like the uh, 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:14.680 the equipment you use to drill and add infrastructure is 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:17.040 going to last forever. You've got to replace it. And 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.240 so steel goes in. Once the pipe's in the ground, 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:20.679 it stays there. It's not like you pull it back 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:21.240 out like a drill. 0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:21.440 Bit. 0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:24.480 I get that fifteen million barrels a day though, or 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.760 twenty million, it's not easy to offset everywhere. That's pretty 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:29.959 much the total production of the United States, and we're 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:32.160 the biggest producer in the world. That that's the squeeze 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:34.120 right there. We're cranking out right now as much as 0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:36.839 we can. You run an oil field services company, land Man, 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.440 when you hear there's no easy fix, is that this 0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:43.400 is that practical. There's got to be there's got to 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:44.440 be something we can I mean, we. 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:48.920 Can us production kIPS potentially go up, you know, five 0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:53.320 million barrels today, but again that would take a higher 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:57.280 cost than you're seeing now in time. There's no easy 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:01.160 There's there's no fix other than opening the straight There's 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:02.959 no fix. And I think what we're going to find 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:05.640 out is a lot of the infrastructure and the lease 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:07.520 has been damaged and will take a while to come 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:08.680 back online. 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:11.520 Trump is going to release or talking about releasing, or 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:13.520 has released I guess one hundred and seventy two million 0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:16.200 barrels from the strategic polt patron, you know, Biden at 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:18.160 every president, I think feels like is they've done that, 0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.120 and it doesn't move the needle at all, because it's 0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:24.160 it's literally a spit in the ocean. I was told 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.000 I was reading something from a gas buddy before you 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:30.200 came on this morning, and there an analyst said, there's 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:31.360 a warning a double headwind. 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:32.360 I believe it is what they call it. 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.760 You've got the supply shock with a RAN and the 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.960 I mentioned the open normal seasonal transition to the more 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:40.959 expensive summer blend glass line required by the clean air RAG. 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:44.000 So what does that mean in real dollars for people 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:44.720 listening this morning? 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.079 And I think there's a lot of upward pressure on 0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:48.720 the gas price. And I was back to then into 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:50.400 your summer plans and your family. 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:52.520 Yeah, there's no claw in that money back. And you 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:55.800 know we're twenty percent from the CEO of United Airlines, 0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:58.440 So book now, I guess the is the mantra here. 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:01.200 Goldman says that the eight stays closed for more than 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.000 two months, oil could stay above one hundred and ten 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:05.480 bucks a barrel through the end of twenty twenty seven. 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:08.880 And they've already pushed their uh first Federick cut call 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:11.800 back to September because the oil are we is this 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:13.680 gonna af factor in the stagflation in your opinion? 0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:17.800 I think I think potentially. So look look here here's 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:19.520 the thing. If they if they say in an hour 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:22.080 they're going to open the straight offour moves, I think 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:24.120 to get I think it will take six months to 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:25.440 get the closed back to. 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:27.640 The law six months. 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:33.120 The market, yes, the market. The market spoof the owners 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.440 of the vessels are spoofed. The people on the vessels 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:38.480 are spoofed. I mean, look, if they said they were 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:40.560 opening it and now which you wanted to, would you 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:42.240 win on the first ship going through this? 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:45.280 Yeah, because somebody doesn't get the memo. 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:48.400 Right, Yeah. So I mean if it's if it's your 0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:51.240 life and these things move incredibly slowly, and what they're 0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:54.800 doing to be so fast boats like the cigarette boats 0:13:54.880 --> 0:14:00.000 and basically comic cosy drones to plow into the side 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:06.360 of these things. So really the cosi figurette. 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:08.440 Yeah, and you know you can have the United States 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:11.880 Navy the best fighting force in the world. Those small 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:14.040 craft are gonna be very difficult to stop no matter 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.800 how many drones or anything else you have activated. You know, 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.480 could be subs, could be anything. They're gonna be really 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:22.520 really hard to get because of the size and just 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.400 how slow these targets move. He again on the show 0:14:25.400 --> 0:14:28.280 this morning is Dan Everhart. He's an oil gas industry insider, 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:30.840 Canary and ever Heard Capital and actual landman. Dan all 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:32.640 the best, thanks for jumping on the show this morning 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:36.480 and and depressing us here the day before opening day. 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:39.760 Thanks thanks uh thanks for thanks for having me. 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:41.520 I appreciate you, buddy. Thanks again. I know you're a 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.440 busy man. Not the news you wanted to hear, but 0:14:44.560 --> 0:14:47.480 that's the reality. So planning, planning, planning, Do not wait 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:50.080 till the last minute to book your travel for the summer. 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:52.800 The gas prices are gonna go up before they go down. 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:55.000 Scott's Loan show with News on the way in just 0:14:55.080 --> 0:15:00.920 minutes on seven hundred WLW. Lu's go Sloani here, seven 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:04.000 hundred WLW, and I mean, let's go as in baseball 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:07.240 tomorrow today is the I don't care what it says 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:11.680 in the calendar and the Farmer's almanac and what the 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:14.880 what the planets are, here's what I care. I care 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:19.320 about that it We'll just make it. Nine six am 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:23.040 tomorrow is the first day of summer. How about that? 0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:25.480 We have baseball season and then we have the rest 0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:28.200 of the year. Tomorrow it all begins. And I say 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:31.400 this tongue in cheek because traditionally it has always begun 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:34.600 on opening day. Instancinnato, Ohio is the first professional major 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.840 league team, but of course in modern times because there's 0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:40.960 lots of money involved, because there's expansion not just to 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:44.120 different cities, but different continents. That the twenty twenty six 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:49.120 Major League Baseball season technically begins tonight with a matchup 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:52.200 between the Yankees and the Giants that is going to 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:57.840 be on Ready for It, Netflix, Netflix, and then of 0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:01.160 course eleven games tomorrow include our Red Legs and the 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:06.040 Boston Red Sox at our Great American Ballpark. They tested 0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:09.280 in the minor leagues and during spring training the automatic 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:12.000 Ball Strike Challenge system, the robot ups. If you go 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.600 to the major leagues and there's a call in spring 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.080 training where there was a bitch that was dead center 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:20.880 across the plate, and you real life them called it 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:25.520 a called it a ball, and they went to the 0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:27.640 automatic system and they said, no, it was right down 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.640 the plate. I mean, if you really want to eliminate 0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:34.000 your job, there's a lot of jobs that AI is 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:36.239 going to take, but I would think that in particular, 0:16:36.360 --> 0:16:42.840 Major League Baseball umpires no offense our dinosaurs, because if 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:46.200 you're called questionable, if a ball is thrown right down 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:47.720 the middle of the plate, the heart of the plate, 0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:50.120 and you call out a ball, you probably should be 0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:53.640 replaced by a computer. I'm sorry. So this is the 0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:58.280 first of AI coming in to replace them. So how 0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:02.120 it works is usually conducted using a bunch of different 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:04.680 cameras around the field perimeter, which is actually really really 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:07.560 cool technology. And when they use this last year in 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:10.000 the miners, just about one percent of pitches were challenged, 0:17:10.040 --> 0:17:13.760 so and half of those calls were returned at least 0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:16.720 for the time being. Anyway, now I don't know, maybe 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:18.840 umpires hang around on not quite. It seems like you 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:21.560 should have the human element though, too, because again you 0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:26.320 are dealing with technology. So again tonight that's on Netflix, 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:29.960 Giants and Yankees kick off the regular Major League Baseball season. 0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:32.920 Here we go again, but on Netflix. 0:17:33.280 --> 0:17:36.280 That's another thing too, is how many different platforms do 0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:39.960 I need to watch my teams? That is going to 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.760 be the I think the question for us consumers, and 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.680 we're fans, but we're also consumers that we're going to 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:47.080 have to face right now if you want to see 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.120 a show or football, is that way too? 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:49.560 Okay? 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:54.000 We have games on CBS, we have you know, we 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:57.320 have games on Fox, all right, but then some games 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:01.040 are on Paramount, other games are Netflix. Then you got 0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:06.080 something that are I don't know, food TV. The thing 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:08.760 was streaming is great because we have so many different channels. 0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:11.440 There's there's more platforms than entertainment. You know, you can 0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:13.359 turn on like for example, I get a new TV 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:15.760 and they have the built in whatever network it is 0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:18.440 for that like LG for example, and they have fifty 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:20.520 thousand show different movies and shows. 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:20.520 And all this. 0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:23.040 There's stuff on there that you probably haven't seen for years. 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:26.320 Amazon Prime is unbelievable. You go to the Amazon Prime 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:29.560 shows in little they're like you could watch. You can 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:31.960 watch old episodes of Cheers or all these old shows. 0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:35.040 Great if you were like vintage TV or off brand 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.400 movies or movies that have been out longer than ten 0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:40.280 fifteen years. They're on the streaming platform. So you can 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:42.399 see anything all the time. There's always something to watch 0:18:43.800 --> 0:18:45.919 and yet seemingly nothing out at the same time. But 0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:48.119 the problem, though is for all of us, is now 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:51.440 how many subscriptions do we have. It's literally a subscription overload. 0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:53.600 And I bring this up too because knowing what's going 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:55.760 on with the REDS and MLB, and we still have 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:57.879 the big question is how am I gonna watch these games? 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:02.960 How am I gonna see baseball? And now am I 0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:04.760 going to watch the Reds? It's a great question. It 0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:07.920 is a great question. But Netflix, that game is on 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:10.639 tonight at eight o'clock. So now I got to get 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:13.080 the Netflix subscription. I think I already have Netflix. I'm 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.320 covered there. And that's one of those things I don't 0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:17.440 know about you is I've got some subscriptions. I got 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:19.800 like a handful of but I really don't want to 0:19:19.800 --> 0:19:21.560 look at the credit card. But I just I pay 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:23.000 the credit card, be like, I don't want to look 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:23.960 at it. I don't want to know how much on 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:26.600 streaming I'm paying a ready and then there's a rate 0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:28.960 change and you know, okay, hey, just letting you know, Scott, Okay, 0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:31.080 once you get the teaser inductory rate here and you 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:33.680 can buddle this that. And you know, if I looked 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:35.720 at it, I probably got two or three subscriptions and 0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:38.119 Netflix from different things. Because I'm old and stupid and 0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:39.600 I forget that I've already subscribed. 0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:40.720 I don't know what's going. 0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:43.600 All I do is want to watch baseball because that 0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:47.480 means summers here speaking of technology, with Netflix and all this, 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:53.320 did you know this nearly every router, and the router 0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:57.040 is the device that goes from your signal. Let's say 0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:59.600 you get spectrum or I don't know, you have fi optics, 0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:02.240 and that comes to your house and then the signal 0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:04.240 is put into the router and the router goes to 0:20:04.280 --> 0:20:06.119 your WiFi and that's like yourself or you just go 0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:13.399 right in the router. The FCC has now banned foreign 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:17.119 made routers, so it's considered a foreign made router if 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:19.240 any major stage of the process through which the devices 0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:23.359 made including manufacturing, assembly, design, and development, our curves outside 0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:25.240 of the United States. And the reason why the FCC 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:29.640 is doing this is because particular company called tp Link, 0:20:29.640 --> 0:20:32.360 which is a huge Chinese made. 0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:34.480 Router. 0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:38.800 There's like that's like I figure the percentage doing only 0:20:38.800 --> 0:20:40.040 a huge set of share of the market. But the 0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:42.760 concern is that they are putting software in there, malware 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:46.000 actually embedded into the chips to be able to see 0:20:46.000 --> 0:20:48.320 what it is you're doing. And we think it is 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:54.040 a huge, huge defense issue, not just for the Pentagon, 0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:56.480 but for me and you as well. Were very vulnerable 0:20:56.520 --> 0:20:58.720 ast thing, and so the FCC crackdown and said, well, 0:20:59.080 --> 0:21:01.119 you know what the ones, the shells ones, you have 0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:03.680 now are fine. The ones on store shells are fine. 0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:06.960 But anything in the future, it's not gonna happen now. 0:21:06.960 --> 0:21:08.840 That's probably gonna drive the cost up too, because we're 0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:11.280 not getting that competition. But at the same time, the 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:14.280 concern is over security. So just so you know, if 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:15.800 you go looking for that bland or other blands and 0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:17.840 wonder what's what's going on with a router, that's a 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:19.800 problem and is should you know again, routers do go 0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:21.639 out from time to time. If yours is older more 0:21:21.640 --> 0:21:24.520 than five or six years, there are better versions on 0:21:24.560 --> 0:21:26.800 the market, or if you know, you just lease yours, 0:21:26.840 --> 0:21:29.320 then you'll probably don't have to worry about that. But 0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:31.000 just that way, I thought that was an interesting thing, 0:21:31.080 --> 0:21:33.240 considering that Major League Baseball is gonna be a Netflix 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:37.000 tonight kicking off the MLB season, and you're gonna have 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:38.840 to spend more money all around, just cost us more 0:21:38.880 --> 0:21:43.400 money all over the place. On that regard, United CEO 0:21:43.480 --> 0:21:47.040 Scott Kirby uh in a press conference yesterday, said be 0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:50.359 aware ticket prices are rising and for airlines will need 0:21:50.400 --> 0:21:53.840 to increase about twenty percent to cover the cost of fuel. 0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:57.439 So United is bracing for oil increases as well, and 0:21:58.000 --> 0:22:00.359 we could be seeing one hundred and fifty hundred and 0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:02.960 seventy five dollars a barrel due to what's happening in Iran. 0:22:03.040 --> 0:22:05.520 But also we're switching to the summer blundze. I don't 0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:10.200 know if that concerns aviation fuel. I don't think it does. 0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.120 It's kerosene, But nonetheless, one hundred and seventy five dollars 0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:15.159 a barrel due to the conflict in Iran. And we 0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:17.880 just don know if you saw this. A major refinery 0:22:19.320 --> 0:22:22.720 outside of Houston caught fire yesterday, so that is down 0:22:22.760 --> 0:22:25.159 for the count and that just adds more to the 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.640 cost of our gas prices right now. Coming up later 0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:31.120 in the show, we'll get more into this as well, 0:22:31.200 --> 0:22:32.879 kind of focus on I just had Dan eberhad in 0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:34.720 a little bitgo. We'll get more back into the topic 0:22:34.760 --> 0:22:37.480 of the oil and gas prices. Because the national average 0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:40.080 now is right at four dollars a gallon. Some are 0:22:40.080 --> 0:22:42.439 saying we could get high as five dollars a gallon, 0:22:43.280 --> 0:22:46.720 and airlines are feeling the squeeze as well. I think 0:22:46.760 --> 0:22:51.560 this is a great clapback for the airline industry because 0:22:51.560 --> 0:22:53.400 of what's going with the TSA work because I'm in Look, 0:22:53.880 --> 0:22:56.439 regardless of where you stand in the political aisle, personally, 0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:59.240 I think there's a couple of things I have issue with. 0:23:00.000 --> 0:23:05.800 First of all, when it comes to the Save America Act, 0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:08.440 you know, the number of people who are voting, ille 0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:11.720 illegals who are voting. It's it's not happening at all, 0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:13.919 and even close to a numbers to can affect any election. 0:23:14.680 --> 0:23:19.000 It's just it's simply extremely, extremely rare. But the other 0:23:19.040 --> 0:23:21.960 side of this is, Look, I gotta show an ID 0:23:22.119 --> 0:23:26.040 for everything for me in you life is kind of 0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:28.720 pain to the but is it not. I mean, how 0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:30.359 many hoops you have to jump through on a daily 0:23:30.359 --> 0:23:34.520 basis just to get stuff done? Is the ask of 0:23:34.600 --> 0:23:37.920 showing an ID really that difficult? Now someone is proposing 0:23:37.960 --> 0:23:42.840 in Ohio that if you present a mail in ballot, 0:23:42.840 --> 0:23:45.000 which I'm a big fan of, that you also have 0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:47.080 to show an idea. You have to have a photocopy 0:23:47.440 --> 0:23:49.840 of your identification that you send along with your ballot 0:23:49.880 --> 0:23:52.680 to make sure you are who you say you are. Look, man, 0:23:53.400 --> 0:23:58.520 I get the political play here, but what an inconvenient 0:23:58.560 --> 0:24:00.600 That is just another level of pain in the ass. 0:24:01.240 --> 0:24:04.399 Look, I've got ideas, I'm good. You mailed to my house. 0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:05.400 You know where I live. 0:24:05.440 --> 0:24:07.040 You've got my taxi, You've got all these records. You 0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:12.520 could cross jack. You're verifying my signature. Okay, you're verifying 0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:14.840 my social Security and all these things. You know who 0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:17.440 I am and who I'm saying. We know that people 0:24:17.440 --> 0:24:19.440 who are voting by mail are not committing fraud. Yet 0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:23.040 now we've got to add a photo copy of your license. Well, 0:24:23.160 --> 0:24:24.080 you can't see me. 0:24:25.880 --> 0:24:26.320 On us. 0:24:26.560 --> 0:24:28.400 I don't know, like when you said it to they 0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:31.280 do you have to like FaceTime them to say, yeah, 0:24:31.280 --> 0:24:32.960 I just mailed this and it's me. 0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:34.600 It's just it's stupid. 0:24:34.920 --> 0:24:38.160 But it's just more politics getting the way of us 0:24:38.240 --> 0:24:41.040 enjoying our lives. It's easier than ever before to vote. 0:24:41.040 --> 0:24:43.400 I've said this many Democrats. I just had Greg Lansman 0:24:43.440 --> 0:24:46.560 on the other day. The idea every time that someone 0:24:46.640 --> 0:24:50.880 proposes something it's voter disenfranchisement. It's you're not disenfranchising anyone. 0:24:51.840 --> 0:24:54.199 You should have some form of identification on you if 0:24:54.200 --> 0:24:57.120 you're an American, Okay, you should have a government issued ID, 0:24:57.320 --> 0:24:59.880 a driver's license. It's really not that much to ask. 0:25:00.640 --> 0:25:02.680 I do pushback and go, well, why do we need this, Well, 0:25:02.680 --> 0:25:05.040 it's politics. It's not that people are fraudulently voting. 0:25:05.080 --> 0:25:05.679 It just makes it. 0:25:05.800 --> 0:25:07.640 You know, we're creating a problem that really isn't there 0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:11.199 because our you know, you talk to someone like Frank Larrose, 0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:12.960 who's caught in the middle of our Secretary of State, 0:25:13.440 --> 0:25:15.879 you'll tell you know, Ohio elections are extremely secure. 0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:16.879 We just don't have fraud. 0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:18.960 And yet he's got to top the company line about 0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:21.320 there being enough fraud to introduce new legislation. 0:25:21.680 --> 0:25:24.680 So it goes. But the idea that you know, well 0:25:24.760 --> 0:25:25.200 they're making. 0:25:25.280 --> 0:25:27.680 Now, no, all these people, hundreds of millions of there's 0:25:27.680 --> 0:25:29.520 ten hundred, two hundred thousand people are not gonna be 0:25:29.520 --> 0:25:30.000 able to vote. 0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:30.640 Now stop. 0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:34.840 Look, you know at some point you do have to 0:25:34.880 --> 0:25:37.600 be responsible and engaged in to a participate in the process, 0:25:37.800 --> 0:25:40.119 to particip be in life. If you're so clueless is 0:25:40.160 --> 0:25:42.359 the not know un ID or government ID and you 0:25:42.440 --> 0:25:44.920 really really want to vote, then get off your asking 0:25:44.960 --> 0:25:48.679 get an ID. I don't know how hard that is 0:25:49.000 --> 0:25:51.200 quite honestly. Now tomorrow they may come up with something else, 0:25:51.240 --> 0:25:53.399 and you know the whole I've got to include a 0:25:53.400 --> 0:25:54.919 photocopy of my driver's license. 0:25:54.920 --> 0:25:56.320 How many people don't have printers. 0:25:56.440 --> 0:25:59.479 It's just it's kind of silly, but the very basic essence, 0:25:59.680 --> 0:26:01.560 how do you live your life these days without having 0:26:01.600 --> 0:26:05.040 a formal ID presenting who you are if you need 0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:07.720 And I'm not saying suggesting the police and government agents 0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:09.679 stop and check your ID, check your papers, We're not 0:26:09.720 --> 0:26:11.920 talking about that. I'm talking about you want to participate 0:26:11.960 --> 0:26:14.359 in stuff. You need to show who you want to travel, 0:26:14.400 --> 0:26:15.520 you want to do all these things. You want to 0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:19.480 find an airplane, you need ID. You know we're going 0:26:19.520 --> 0:26:22.359 to we're disenfranchising with people aren't allowed to travel freely 0:26:22.400 --> 0:26:24.080 in America because they have to have an idea. Yeah, 0:26:24.080 --> 0:26:26.160 we need to know who the hell you are. It's 0:26:26.240 --> 0:26:29.439 really not that big And I ask, is it? But 0:26:29.520 --> 0:26:32.480 Delta Airlines because of this whole government shutdown now and 0:26:32.520 --> 0:26:34.600 the TSA workers going all to pay for what the 0:26:34.640 --> 0:26:38.000 third time three paychecks? Now, I mean these people are 0:26:38.000 --> 0:26:40.040 getting squeeze. There's no money coming in and so they're 0:26:40.040 --> 0:26:42.159 not showing up to work. They may be doing a 0:26:42.200 --> 0:26:44.360 side hustle or something like that. And plus how many 0:26:44.359 --> 0:26:46.960 people really want to become TSAG it's knowing that ye 0:26:47.080 --> 0:26:48.760 now every six months, you're not going to get paid, 0:26:50.800 --> 0:26:52.800 and this is why you have not everywhere. 0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:53.720 CBG is doing well. 0:26:53.760 --> 0:26:56.800 And I think it's also misrepresented a lot of cases, probably, 0:26:56.880 --> 0:26:58.560 And I don't watch a lot of you know, the 0:26:58.960 --> 0:27:02.400 media's Republicans like the shout out of like most people 0:27:02.400 --> 0:27:04.320 look at their phones and get information. I'm not watching, 0:27:04.359 --> 0:27:06.560 you know, sitting down and watching the nightly news. I 0:27:06.560 --> 0:27:08.359 don't even know who does the nightly news anymore. It's 0:27:08.400 --> 0:27:11.439 old school. But in that regard, yeah, it's you know, 0:27:11.480 --> 0:27:13.680 you're gonna show long lines at airports because you know 0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:18.199 that's that's good television or that's clickbait. But you know 0:27:18.200 --> 0:27:20.240 a lot of airports like CBG are doing just fine. 0:27:20.280 --> 0:27:22.240 So it's relative for sure. Now if you're stuck in 0:27:22.240 --> 0:27:24.680 those long lines, it's a different story when you see 0:27:24.720 --> 0:27:27.000 whereas in Houston, like a six hour line that's insane, 0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:29.200 New Orleans and other fields like that. Sure it's happening. 0:27:29.720 --> 0:27:34.000 Delta Airlines, I think this is a great masters stroke. 0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:39.480 Delta Airlines has suspended services for members of Congress because 0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:43.360 of the shutdown, so they have specially flights I guess, 0:27:43.400 --> 0:27:44.720 you know, when they're trying to get in out of town. 0:27:44.760 --> 0:27:47.560 When one week they're working next week, they're on spring break, 0:27:47.600 --> 0:27:49.600 and so who the hell knows when these guys are working. 0:27:50.560 --> 0:27:53.000 But nonetheless, Delta said, yeah, okay, well guess what now 0:27:53.000 --> 0:27:54.879 we're gonna hit you guys. Take a train, go walk 0:27:56.200 --> 0:27:58.439 uber home, uber back to your district. See how you 0:27:58.520 --> 0:28:00.680 like it. I think that's fantastic, And it made me 0:28:00.680 --> 0:28:02.359 think of something else. You know, all those people standing 0:28:02.400 --> 0:28:04.520 in line, and if you're one of those, if we're 0:28:04.560 --> 0:28:07.120 smart about this, we'd organize it instead of this stupid 0:28:07.160 --> 0:28:09.639 no King's protest or little kings. I'm a big fan 0:28:09.680 --> 0:28:13.639 of little kings. No King's not spot a little king's protest. 0:28:13.680 --> 0:28:15.320 I'd be there with you. I'll bring the bottle open 0:28:15.400 --> 0:28:20.280 or how's that? But instead the no kings protests? Again, 0:28:20.359 --> 0:28:22.680 here's when we could all participate. And if you're traveling, 0:28:23.600 --> 0:28:25.200 because what are you doing when you're waiting in these 0:28:25.280 --> 0:28:28.320 extremely long lines, because we're not paying tsa agents of 0:28:28.359 --> 0:28:30.760 all things to squeeze us out and give us some 0:28:30.760 --> 0:28:33.000 sort of attraction, some sort of reason to get this 0:28:33.040 --> 0:28:38.240 whole standoff done. You've got time in your hands, you've 0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:42.080 got a phone in your hands. I think maybe the 0:28:42.120 --> 0:28:44.800 thing is like, Okay, here's my lawmaker, these are the 0:28:44.800 --> 0:28:47.480 people responsible, these are my congress people, as my senator. 0:28:48.240 --> 0:28:49.880 As long as I stand in line for four or 0:28:49.880 --> 0:28:53.840 five six hours, I'm going to continually call our office 0:28:54.160 --> 0:28:58.720 and complain. And maybe if the switchboards are so overloaded 0:28:58.720 --> 0:29:00.760 with calls and blow it up and the system gets 0:29:00.760 --> 0:29:04.520 shut down. I don't know, does that cause them to act? 0:29:04.560 --> 0:29:06.920 Probably not, But you know, starting convenience to them, I 0:29:06.960 --> 0:29:09.840 think the Delta has it right. Turn this thing around. 0:29:10.080 --> 0:29:11.960 It's like, okay, now we're gonna into convenience. You want 0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:14.080 a special flight home, you want a special trip or 0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:16.840 a special shovel because you're a lawmaker. Yeah, you're not 0:29:16.880 --> 0:29:20.080 doing your job. You get nothing. You're killing us. We 0:29:20.160 --> 0:29:23.400 have to increase fuel costs. We're we're trying to make money. 0:29:23.640 --> 0:29:27.400 Passengers are mad. It sounds like a campaign. The airline 0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:30.200 should start or TSA. The TSA starts like, hey, here's 0:29:30.240 --> 0:29:33.040 the number of your lawmakers. Start calling them, email them, 0:29:33.040 --> 0:29:35.720 blow them up, text them. I mean, you're standing the 0:29:35.720 --> 0:29:37.920 line anyway, What the hell now? In some areas of 0:29:37.960 --> 0:29:39.720 the airport you're in the bowels and you're not getting 0:29:39.760 --> 0:29:41.600 Wi Fi or I forgot I think it was Houston. 0:29:41.640 --> 0:29:44.000 These people are standing in a six hour line and 0:29:44.040 --> 0:29:45.360 they have to the lines are so long they have 0:29:45.400 --> 0:29:48.520 to reroute people. And some are in the bowels of 0:29:48.560 --> 0:29:50.800 the airport where there's no Wi Fi in no cell service. 0:29:51.000 --> 0:29:53.080 So you're standing there for six hours. In this modern age, 0:29:53.200 --> 0:29:56.680 it's not like you brought a hardcover book with you. 0:29:56.880 --> 0:29:58.560 Just standing there staring at the head of the person 0:29:58.560 --> 0:30:00.520 in front of you for six hours. I mean, shoot 0:30:00.560 --> 0:30:03.920 me now, right, running all my arm off at this point, 0:30:03.920 --> 0:30:06.240 at what point you just goes, guess what, this vacation, 0:30:06.360 --> 0:30:09.800 this trip, it just is not happening. Get my money back. 0:30:09.840 --> 0:30:11.440 I'll kick the can down the road. I just go 0:30:11.520 --> 0:30:13.600 back to work, you know what, I'm taking my vacation 0:30:13.720 --> 0:30:14.120 days back. 0:30:14.160 --> 0:30:16.520 We're good. Of course, you got a wedding or something 0:30:16.520 --> 0:30:17.400 like that, different story. 0:30:17.840 --> 0:30:20.360 But yeah, the thing is, I don't know, I wonder 0:30:20.400 --> 0:30:25.320 how busy their offices are, or even their local office 0:30:25.360 --> 0:30:27.280 and general they're not staffed, but you know, they have 0:30:27.360 --> 0:30:30.120 offices in their district that are just storefronts basically, and 0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:32.280 there might be somebody there, but you know, starting leaning 0:30:32.280 --> 0:30:35.120 on other people, starting inconvenience in them for crying out loud. 0:30:36.080 --> 0:30:37.680 I mean Delta. I think they I think they got 0:30:37.680 --> 0:30:38.760 it right here. Quite honestly. 0:30:39.880 --> 0:30:42.600 They can't go unscathe Allen and Springfield on the Scott's 0:30:42.640 --> 0:30:43.680 Loan show, Good Marrow, what's up? 0:30:45.040 --> 0:30:47.760 I just listening to you. I couldn't agree with you more, 0:30:47.800 --> 0:30:51.640 and I think, uh, you know, the government just needs 0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:55.280 to hear more and more from upstanding leaders in our 0:30:55.320 --> 0:30:58.720 community and from common Joe's like you and me, that 0:30:58.840 --> 0:31:04.280 they suck. They're terrible, you know, forcing people to work, 0:31:04.560 --> 0:31:06.440 and I know it's you know, people can call off 0:31:06.560 --> 0:31:09.120 the forcing people to work without pay. We tried back 0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:12.280 in this country years ago. That doesn't work. That's just 0:31:12.480 --> 0:31:17.880 stupid thinking. And it goes back to you know, Kings 0:31:17.920 --> 0:31:22.720 and Ponds that you know, Democrats couldn't organize an argument 0:31:22.760 --> 0:31:26.080 that no Kings thinks does and the Republicans can never 0:31:26.200 --> 0:31:28.920 organize ever rebuttal to the Democrats, and they're just as 0:31:28.960 --> 0:31:33.600 foolish we are Americans. We need Democrats and Republicans to 0:31:33.640 --> 0:31:37.200 get the heck out of our way. They're terrible at 0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:39.480 their job and they need to be told every day 0:31:39.560 --> 0:31:40.720 how terrible they are. 0:31:41.040 --> 0:31:41.200 Are. 0:31:41.240 --> 0:31:43.959 They busy in Washington, Yeah, they're busy at name calling. 0:31:44.640 --> 0:31:48.760 You know, uh, it doesn't matter the president Democrat, Republican. 0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:53.520 They put posers in place to do well. 0:31:54.680 --> 0:31:56.760 Here's the thing is, we elect these people, right, and 0:31:56.800 --> 0:31:59.640 I'm so tired of the same rhetoric, the same nonsense. 0:31:59.640 --> 0:32:02.360 As you know, you're voting for freedom and you're voting 0:32:02.400 --> 0:32:03.800 you're not. You just going to do the same thing 0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:06.120 the guy you're replacing does. So I don't feel like, 0:32:06.600 --> 0:32:09.640 you know, we tried this seismic change with Trump. I mean, 0:32:09.720 --> 0:32:12.240 legitimately the first term is like, Okay, here's a guy 0:32:13.080 --> 0:32:17.240 who has no experience in governance whatsoever, the successful business person. 0:32:17.600 --> 0:32:19.200 Let's let's try this guy. I mean, it was an 0:32:19.200 --> 0:32:21.440 active desperation by the American electorate to the point where 0:32:21.440 --> 0:32:24.560 when Trump was sworn in on election night, when he 0:32:24.560 --> 0:32:26.640 found out he won, dude looked like a deer in headlights. 0:32:26.640 --> 0:32:28.400 I've never seen that look at that guy's face ever, 0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:31.800 because it was so confident in himself. He like, did 0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:34.080 I just get elected president? How the hell did this happen? 0:32:34.560 --> 0:32:37.120 Because we're desperate for change, that's how he got elected. 0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:42.160 And now this many years later, he's part of the 0:32:42.240 --> 0:32:46.200 dumper as well. I mean, he is horrible. I can't 0:32:46.200 --> 0:32:49.040 believe how many people call into this radio and say 0:32:49.080 --> 0:32:53.200 they love him. I don't love nobody could love Joe 0:32:53.240 --> 0:32:55.880 Biden in this past four years and the way he performed. 0:32:56.120 --> 0:32:58.560 And I got to tell you people got smoke mirrors on. 0:32:58.640 --> 0:32:59.840 I mean, I trust me. 0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:01.840 I like what he did with the southern border. That 0:33:01.920 --> 0:33:06.720 was just upholding law. The Democrats start around and Republicans 0:33:08.160 --> 0:33:10.240 they try to tell people who can't be and who 0:33:10.240 --> 0:33:14.520 can't be patriot a patriot. I just don't understand foolish talk. 0:33:14.680 --> 0:33:17.400 Well what happened is it became it all became the 0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:19.080 free to the patriots, and it became a brand, is 0:33:19.080 --> 0:33:19.520 what it is. 0:33:20.240 --> 0:33:20.440 You know. 0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:22.400 Yeah, I love what he did with with oh you 0:33:22.400 --> 0:33:24.840 know dig Yeah, absolutely, we need to be energy independent. 0:33:25.000 --> 0:33:27.959 Example here is this, but you mentioned border security. I 0:33:28.000 --> 0:33:29.880 was not not a fan of on the first term 0:33:29.960 --> 0:33:32.680 of the border wall. That was a bad idea because 0:33:32.680 --> 0:33:34.320 they don't work. And now it's like, hey, we did 0:33:34.320 --> 0:33:36.680 it with policy, we did with enforcement. Yeah, that's exactly 0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:38.560 how you do it. And then you squeeze Mexico. But 0:33:38.880 --> 0:33:40.840 then you shoots himself on the foot on other things. 0:33:40.880 --> 0:33:43.720 So I just you know, doze right, Hey, we're gonna 0:33:43.840 --> 0:33:45.880 we're gonna blow everything. Didn't do a damn thing, and 0:33:46.040 --> 0:33:48.120 now we have more debt than we did under Biden. 0:33:48.240 --> 0:33:50.760 So what's really changing here? And I gotta go, man, 0:33:50.760 --> 0:33:53.520 Thanks for the time, appreciate you listening. Happy Opening Day, buddy, 0:33:53.560 --> 0:33:55.400 It's the home of the Red seven hundred w W. 0:33:55.600 --> 0:33:56.880 Since THENI I want to. 0:33:56.800 --> 0:34:01.240 Be an American, No God willing. 0:34:01.280 --> 0:34:02.880 I'll have a coul drink in my hand at the 0:34:02.920 --> 0:34:06.960 Holy Grail Banks for Opening Day twenty twenty six. And 0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:11.040 it begins anew The hope and prospects of a new 0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:14.040 season emerge tomorrow morning at nine am when we kick 0:34:14.040 --> 0:34:15.799 off the broadcast live. We're down there all day. We'll 0:34:15.800 --> 0:34:17.440 first pitch at four to ten with the Boston Red 0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:20.760 Sox in town. And so it begins, and it begins 0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:23.200 the way well we've begun in the past. What it 0:34:23.200 --> 0:34:26.560 looks like a glut of pitchers now because of injuries, 0:34:26.920 --> 0:34:29.920 and mister Blister looks maybe a little bit thinner on. 0:34:29.960 --> 0:34:32.920 That is our buddy from Locked On Reds. He's Jeff Carr. Jeff, 0:34:33.560 --> 0:34:37.600 Welcome to the show. Good morning, Sony. The Reds always 0:34:37.840 --> 0:34:41.080 test their depths. It doesn't matter how much they've got 0:34:41.120 --> 0:34:41.319 of it. 0:34:41.400 --> 0:34:43.040 They use it all baby. 0:34:42.920 --> 0:34:44.840 Yeah, before the season even starts. 0:34:46.400 --> 0:34:49.839 So Nick Lidolo is pitching, everything's going good, and then 0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:51.719 all of a sudden, it's not. Now We've got a 0:34:51.760 --> 0:34:54.799 second pitcher down with a blister, and it's nothing new. 0:34:54.840 --> 0:34:57.160 He's battlest his entire career. He said this spring he 0:34:57.239 --> 0:35:00.480 was taking some preventative measures. But you know, those measures 0:35:00.520 --> 0:35:03.600 don't hold the March game. What are they realistic options 0:35:03.600 --> 0:35:05.200 for the Reds to manage this through one hundred and 0:35:05.239 --> 0:35:06.160 sixty two games. 0:35:07.840 --> 0:35:11.640 Well, and I think that there is a special circumstance 0:35:11.719 --> 0:35:15.759 with this because Arizona was something close to Mercury as 0:35:15.800 --> 0:35:19.160 far as the temperature goes. This past week, they were 0:35:19.239 --> 0:35:22.520 moving games around, pushing untill later in the day, and 0:35:22.560 --> 0:35:24.400 so I think that there was just something to it 0:35:24.480 --> 0:35:28.080 that can pushing too hard, too fast, or something like that. 0:35:28.120 --> 0:35:30.160 But still, you're right, we're talking about a guy that 0:35:30.640 --> 0:35:33.240 there's been one problem in his career and he continues 0:35:33.280 --> 0:35:36.120 to face that one problem. It did not rip on 0:35:36.200 --> 0:35:39.440 its own. They were able to, you know, treat it 0:35:39.480 --> 0:35:41.640 and all that other stuff after the game was over. 0:35:42.000 --> 0:35:44.560 And so that's exactly what happened with Brady Singer, and 0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:47.239 all reports indicate that he is not going to miss 0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:49.480 any time he's supposed to make his first start. Brady 0:35:49.480 --> 0:35:52.839 Singer is for the third game of the season. We 0:35:52.880 --> 0:35:54.960 know that we're talking about two different pictures when it 0:35:55.000 --> 0:35:57.759 comes to Blusters. In this case, the body language of 0:35:57.880 --> 0:36:01.080 Nicolodola was key. Whenever he was coming off the mound, 0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:04.680 you could see that he was mad. He wasn't dejected 0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:08.040 or depressed or drained. It was that he was angry, 0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:11.080 almost as if it's like here we go again. 0:36:11.560 --> 0:36:13.880 Yeah, and so he misses a little time. Who steps 0:36:13.920 --> 0:36:14.480 in Louder? 0:36:14.520 --> 0:36:17.840 Burns Williamson, I think it probably just kind of crunch 0:36:17.920 --> 0:36:21.160 this rotation up. I think that you would be fine 0:36:21.239 --> 0:36:23.880 to move Brady Singer into the second game of the 0:36:23.920 --> 0:36:27.359 Boston Red Sox series, and then you would see Red 0:36:27.400 --> 0:36:29.720 Louder in the final game on Sunday. 0:36:30.200 --> 0:36:32.520 Yeah, and Tito said already that we'd be revisiting that 0:36:32.600 --> 0:36:35.120 situation within a couple of weeks, you know, And so 0:36:35.320 --> 0:36:37.719 trying to figure out who emerges as a clear number four. 0:36:38.120 --> 0:36:40.919 Was that made any more evident in this last week 0:36:40.960 --> 0:36:42.720 full week of play in Goodyear. 0:36:43.480 --> 0:36:46.640 I think that Brandon Williamson is really separating himself. He 0:36:47.120 --> 0:36:49.040 has had a nice spring, and while I've tried to 0:36:49.040 --> 0:36:51.120 take it with a grain of salt, it just seems 0:36:51.160 --> 0:36:53.759 like every time he goes out there he has a 0:36:53.760 --> 0:36:56.680 good outing, and his most recent outing he pitched five 0:36:56.760 --> 0:36:58.799 plus innings, so it kind of looks like he is 0:36:59.320 --> 0:37:03.080 ready to go and be relied on. And if you 0:37:03.239 --> 0:37:06.440 are going to see Nicolodella miss more than one start, 0:37:06.680 --> 0:37:09.239 I think you can work Chase Burns up in that 0:37:09.320 --> 0:37:12.560 first start, maybe even the second start. He goes five 0:37:12.600 --> 0:37:15.279 innings and then you're ready to turn him loose. But 0:37:15.600 --> 0:37:18.200 I think that the Reds are any better situation here 0:37:18.280 --> 0:37:20.640 than you know. We as Red fans, we love to 0:37:20.640 --> 0:37:24.440 take that pessimistic view, and whenever we heard six starting 0:37:24.480 --> 0:37:27.040 pitchers for five spots, we're like, well, you know that 0:37:27.080 --> 0:37:29.160 old adage when you say you got two quarterbacks, you 0:37:29.160 --> 0:37:32.040 don't really have a quarterbacks. Do you have six starting pitchers? 0:37:32.040 --> 0:37:34.480 I mean, you don't have any And I don't think 0:37:34.560 --> 0:37:37.279 that's the case here. And I was happy to hear 0:37:37.400 --> 0:37:42.319 that their plan for the whole piggyback starter situation was 0:37:42.440 --> 0:37:45.120 not going to be something that extended far into the season, 0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:48.000 because that would be the thing that I'd say, Okay, 0:37:48.040 --> 0:37:50.120 this is a bad idea because you are going to 0:37:50.200 --> 0:37:52.960 tax your bullpen. You are going to put some weird 0:37:53.000 --> 0:37:56.840 stress on these young starting pitchers. But the quick hook 0:37:57.560 --> 0:37:59.840 as that were on this plan is the key to me. 0:38:00.680 --> 0:38:03.479 He's Jeff Carr so the Car Show Baby and locked 0:38:03.560 --> 0:38:05.600 on reds is the podcast. So one hundred Green is 0:38:05.600 --> 0:38:08.560 out to at least July. Pretty huge hole there, obviously, 0:38:08.560 --> 0:38:11.720 with your ace going down and trying to hold it together. 0:38:11.760 --> 0:38:14.800 Andrew Abbott's getting the started opening day? Is he ready 0:38:14.840 --> 0:38:18.600 to go? Does he have any blisters, any headache? Is 0:38:18.640 --> 0:38:21.560 he like cramping? What's is he? 0:38:21.640 --> 0:38:21.960 Okay? 0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:25.880 All reports indicated he is ready to go, and his 0:38:26.280 --> 0:38:29.000 most recent start, he got his pitch count up really nicely. 0:38:29.120 --> 0:38:31.160 And I know that a lot of folks continue to 0:38:31.160 --> 0:38:34.000 belabor the statistics and I don't think they will have 0:38:34.200 --> 0:38:36.400 too many worries after his opening day start. 0:38:37.239 --> 0:38:40.520 Okay, good, that's fingers crossed hopefully on It's ago. We 0:38:40.600 --> 0:38:43.000 know you mentioned Brady singer Dodge day blister scare of 0:38:43.040 --> 0:38:45.040 his own. How important is it for him to stay 0:38:45.040 --> 0:38:45.719 healthy this year? 0:38:46.760 --> 0:38:49.560 He is the rock in the middle of the reservortation 0:38:49.680 --> 0:38:52.680 mate thirty two starts last year, first streads starting to 0:38:52.680 --> 0:38:55.359 make thirty two starts since the red said guy's name, 0:38:55.440 --> 0:38:58.120 Louis Castillo and Tyler Malley shown up for him every 0:38:58.120 --> 0:39:00.640 fifth day, So it's been a litle little bit there, 0:39:00.680 --> 0:39:04.040 and I continue to expect him to do that again, 0:39:04.440 --> 0:39:06.759 and it sort of earmarked the top four. And as 0:39:06.840 --> 0:39:09.360 much as we are seeing, you know, Hunter Green missing 0:39:09.400 --> 0:39:12.760 half the season or more and Nicolodolo is already dealing 0:39:12.800 --> 0:39:15.760 with blister issues, this whole top four thing is getting 0:39:16.520 --> 0:39:18.719 It's taken its locks early. But I'd love to see 0:39:18.719 --> 0:39:22.479 one hundred and twenty starts from the top four, which 0:39:22.520 --> 0:39:25.520 that just means each guy needs to average thirty. And 0:39:25.640 --> 0:39:30.680 if you take probably you know, fifteen away from Hunter Green, 0:39:30.840 --> 0:39:33.840 it's likely that they missed that one hundred and twenty mark. 0:39:34.080 --> 0:39:35.640 But Brady Singer is going to be that guy that 0:39:35.680 --> 0:39:37.759 you can rely on to kind of lift everybody else 0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:38.239 up in that. 0:39:38.200 --> 0:39:41.680 Group, gotcha. Caleb Ferguson is going to start on the al. 0:39:41.880 --> 0:39:45.440 He's got a MRI coming up this week, I think Wednesday. 0:39:45.480 --> 0:39:47.480 Back here in Cincinnati. Bullpen is supposed to be a 0:39:47.480 --> 0:39:50.680 big strength after the rebuild this offseason. How much losing 0:39:50.800 --> 0:39:52.759 him does that hurt the calculus here? 0:39:54.440 --> 0:39:56.800 It's not as bad as you would think in years 0:39:56.840 --> 0:40:00.360 past because the year the Reds saw their biggest weakness 0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:03.239 in the bullpen being their lefties, and when the you know, 0:40:03.440 --> 0:40:05.600 last year, for the much of the year, it was 0:40:05.800 --> 0:40:10.239 just Brent Suitor and he wasn't really even a lefty specialist. 0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:14.080 He was more of a long relief specialist. The Reds 0:40:14.160 --> 0:40:17.000 needed to upgrade that, and so that's why they signed him. 0:40:17.040 --> 0:40:20.279 They traded for brock Berth, and they kept sam Mall, 0:40:20.320 --> 0:40:22.880 where a lot of people wondered if they might cut him. Well, 0:40:22.920 --> 0:40:25.759 they're looking like geniuses for keeping him now because he's 0:40:25.800 --> 0:40:28.880 going to be able to backfill Caleb Ferguson's spot at 0:40:28.960 --> 0:40:31.680 least in the short term. And sam Mall's actually looked 0:40:31.680 --> 0:40:34.439 good this spring, where last year he was not good 0:40:34.480 --> 0:40:36.720 at all in the spring or in the regular season. 0:40:37.040 --> 0:40:39.520 He showed up the camp out of shape. This year 0:40:39.600 --> 0:40:42.440 he's completely different. It looks like he was super focused. 0:40:42.520 --> 0:40:46.239 All of his appearances have looked really well, albeit he's 0:40:46.239 --> 0:40:48.160 still had a little bit of control, but every pitcher 0:40:48.239 --> 0:40:50.440 kind of goes through that during the spring training and 0:40:50.480 --> 0:40:54.400 so I expect him to at least fill in in 0:40:54.440 --> 0:40:58.360 a way that the Reds won't necessarily miss Caleb Ferguson 0:40:58.400 --> 0:41:01.799 as much. But whenever Caleb Ferguson returns, then we will 0:41:01.840 --> 0:41:03.240 see the sailing of the bullet. 0:41:03.280 --> 0:41:03.600 Okay. 0:41:04.000 --> 0:41:06.880 Sam Mall also made the team, and Tito talked about 0:41:06.880 --> 0:41:08.960 his stuff looking a lot better late in camp. Is 0:41:09.000 --> 0:41:11.960 he a legitimate back end weapon or is he is 0:41:12.000 --> 0:41:12.880 he a roster filler? 0:41:12.880 --> 0:41:16.080 While Ferguson recovers, Honestly, if he could pitch like he 0:41:16.120 --> 0:41:19.040 pitched in twenty twenty four, he could be a legitimate weapon. 0:41:19.200 --> 0:41:21.759 He was a guy that was super good at limiting 0:41:22.360 --> 0:41:25.080 opponents whenever he came in. I kind of had this 0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:26.920 stat that I never really came up with a good 0:41:27.000 --> 0:41:30.040 name for a relief pitcher that came in, didn't allow 0:41:30.080 --> 0:41:32.920 base or under and got at least one strikeout. And 0:41:33.000 --> 0:41:35.840 Sam Mall led the was second in the team to 0:41:36.040 --> 0:41:39.400 Alexis Diaz that year. But I mean, I think a 0:41:39.400 --> 0:41:40.360 lot of people would. 0:41:40.120 --> 0:41:41.080 Have been surprised by that. 0:41:41.480 --> 0:41:43.960 Yeah, that's what we need. We need, we need another 0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:47.239 statistic in baseball. We need a new every year. 0:41:47.520 --> 0:41:49.960 I looked at the long list and I'm like Plony, 0:41:50.320 --> 0:41:51.520 there's there's not enough. 0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:56.360 There's not enough data. More I demand, I demand more data. 0:41:56.440 --> 0:41:58.880 He is Jeff Carr with lockdown rights, all right. So 0:41:58.960 --> 0:42:02.480 that's a pitching situation which has been pretty frightening here 0:42:02.520 --> 0:42:04.719 in the last couple of weeks, with the injuries, the blisters, 0:42:05.320 --> 0:42:09.000 of course, losing your opening day Ace Caleb bar Ferguson 0:42:09.040 --> 0:42:11.799 on the bullpen. What can make up for that and 0:42:11.880 --> 0:42:14.680 cover a lot of problems there, if indeed we have problems, 0:42:14.719 --> 0:42:16.320 would be, of course the position player. 0:42:16.360 --> 0:42:17.520 So let's talk lineup. 0:42:17.520 --> 0:42:20.400 Matt McClain has had one of the best of spriensive 0:42:20.840 --> 0:42:23.319 offensive springs in all of baseball, I mean all the 0:42:23.360 --> 0:42:24.040 major leagues. 0:42:24.760 --> 0:42:25.880 Is it real this time? 0:42:27.040 --> 0:42:29.319 I think that there are elements to it that are real. 0:42:29.400 --> 0:42:31.239 I'm not going to expect him to hit over three 0:42:31.280 --> 0:42:34.680 hundred for the season, but there's a very key thing 0:42:34.719 --> 0:42:36.680 that he has done this spring that he just hasn't 0:42:36.719 --> 0:42:39.759 done so far in his two year career, and that 0:42:39.920 --> 0:42:44.200 is he has cut his chase rate almost I mean 0:42:44.239 --> 0:42:47.120 almost by ten percent. His career chase rate is at 0:42:47.160 --> 0:42:50.600 twenty seven percent and this year or sorry, twenty five percent. 0:42:51.000 --> 0:42:54.560 And this spring he only swung it pitches upside the 0:42:54.560 --> 0:42:57.520 strike zone at a rate of seventeen percent, So his 0:42:57.600 --> 0:43:01.520 plate discipline is up, his eye is better, he's seeing 0:43:01.560 --> 0:43:04.560 the ball really well. Now there's some other stats, like 0:43:04.800 --> 0:43:07.719 when it comes to his luck and things like that 0:43:07.719 --> 0:43:10.720 that would say that, well, a five twenty six batting 0:43:10.760 --> 0:43:13.719 average is a little high. It's a little lucky, and 0:43:14.120 --> 0:43:16.719 whenever you make more hits than outs, I think most 0:43:16.760 --> 0:43:20.080 people would agree with that. But at the end of 0:43:20.080 --> 0:43:23.200 the day, I am buying his plate discipline and I'm 0:43:23.239 --> 0:43:25.840 buying his approach the way that he is able to 0:43:25.920 --> 0:43:28.479 kind of stay back on his back foot and wait 0:43:28.520 --> 0:43:30.600 on that breaking ball that's low and away, put his 0:43:30.680 --> 0:43:32.480 bat on it and just poking in the right field 0:43:32.480 --> 0:43:36.040 for a single and move along. He has now covered 0:43:36.080 --> 0:43:38.879 the hole in his swing that pitchers knew about last year, 0:43:39.080 --> 0:43:41.319 and so they're going to have to regain plan for him. 0:43:41.600 --> 0:43:44.120 And while they do that, I think Matt McClain's going 0:43:44.160 --> 0:43:45.279 to be producing quite a bit for. 0:43:45.239 --> 0:43:48.080 The rest Okay, good, Yeah, and he's it sucked incredible 0:43:48.120 --> 0:43:50.799 so far as it has for Ellie. He just continues 0:43:50.880 --> 0:43:52.320 to do elle like things. 0:43:53.200 --> 0:43:54.799 He's healthy, he looks good. 0:43:55.080 --> 0:43:57.920 I mean, we saw a couple of different situations in 0:43:57.960 --> 0:44:00.640 the spring where he either walks or it's a single, 0:44:01.080 --> 0:44:03.160 and then you blink and he's on third. And that's 0:44:03.200 --> 0:44:06.839 exactly what we need from him in games where he 0:44:06.920 --> 0:44:09.480 might not have his best stuff with the bat, as 0:44:09.560 --> 0:44:11.799 long as his legs can carry him forward. He's a 0:44:11.840 --> 0:44:13.880 five tool guy. Yeah, you know, if all five of 0:44:13.880 --> 0:44:16.680 those tools are working like we've seen this spring, then 0:44:16.719 --> 0:44:18.680 we are going to see the superstar that we know 0:44:18.760 --> 0:44:19.239 that he can be. 0:44:19.560 --> 0:44:23.120 Gotcha, Noelvie Marti had had some shaky moments in right 0:44:23.160 --> 0:44:26.080 field defensively on Tito said he made the club for sure. 0:44:26.120 --> 0:44:28.920 So what's your honest assessment. Who's watched a lot of 0:44:28.920 --> 0:44:31.600 spring training? Honest asseeven of Noelvie Marti. 0:44:32.440 --> 0:44:35.520 You know, like the old cartoons or something where somebody's 0:44:35.560 --> 0:44:37.760 like trying to figure something out and so they hold 0:44:37.840 --> 0:44:40.360 up a big spyglass to something. I'm still holding up 0:44:40.360 --> 0:44:43.960 a big spy glass to Noelvie Marte when he's fielding 0:44:44.120 --> 0:44:46.319 right now. I got to figure out what that looks like. 0:44:46.760 --> 0:44:48.600 Because obviously he had the best play of the year 0:44:48.680 --> 0:44:50.919 last year for the Reds, but at the same time, 0:44:50.960 --> 0:44:53.600 we saw plenty of plays where he's kind of run 0:44:53.640 --> 0:44:55.520 around in the outfield like bugs Bunny, trying and find 0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:58.880 a baseball, And you don't want to see that on 0:44:58.920 --> 0:45:00.719 a regular basis. You want to I see guys taking 0:45:00.719 --> 0:45:03.160 good routes. You want to see him putting himself in 0:45:03.200 --> 0:45:06.200 an easy position to make a play. And I don't 0:45:06.239 --> 0:45:09.320 know that we really saw that this spring. So I 0:45:09.800 --> 0:45:14.280 hope that he acquires that rather quickly because this outfield 0:45:15.080 --> 0:45:19.680 it seems interesting, because there were some nice performances from 0:45:19.719 --> 0:45:22.640 guys this year, but I don't necessarily know that I 0:45:22.840 --> 0:45:26.480 buy how much this outfield or how good this outfield 0:45:26.480 --> 0:45:29.040 has looked in spring training. I've got to see that. 0:45:29.040 --> 0:45:30.960 That's the one thing that I've remarked for the season 0:45:31.000 --> 0:45:33.279 that I'm like, I got to see it to believe it, 0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:35.719 and I got to see his glove working to believe it. 0:45:35.760 --> 0:45:36.080 Okay. 0:45:36.080 --> 0:45:39.040 And then also the bench too, love the fact that 0:45:39.040 --> 0:45:43.080 they resigned to a Vino Platinum glove catcher send multi legit. 0:45:43.120 --> 0:45:46.279 That's awesome. Well Benson obviously, and Nathaniel Low who made 0:45:46.320 --> 0:45:50.440 the club despite a lot of personal trauma during spring training, 0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:51.799 but he still showed up. 0:45:52.719 --> 0:45:55.000 You know, Nick Krawl must be living right, because for 0:45:55.080 --> 0:45:58.279 NATHANIELO to be available for nothing, and that's what the 0:45:58.320 --> 0:46:01.360 Reds got him for was nothing. And he's going to 0:46:01.360 --> 0:46:04.000 be a key part of this team for this year 0:46:04.000 --> 0:46:05.520 because I think that he's going to bounce back in 0:46:05.560 --> 0:46:08.600 a big way. He's a guy that his career has 0:46:08.680 --> 0:46:11.600 been good. Last year was not and so if he 0:46:11.640 --> 0:46:14.040 can just get back to what the back of his 0:46:14.080 --> 0:46:16.560 baseball card says, then he is going to be an 0:46:16.640 --> 0:46:18.400 asset for the Reds. And how many times have we 0:46:18.480 --> 0:46:19.960 been able to say that for the Reds in these 0:46:19.960 --> 0:46:23.160 pastca leears so many young guys trying to make their 0:46:23.200 --> 0:46:25.360 way in the major League and they don't have a 0:46:25.400 --> 0:46:28.600 back of the baseball card. NATHANIELO does, and we know 0:46:28.640 --> 0:46:30.839 what he can bring to the deal. Good on bass guy, 0:46:31.440 --> 0:46:34.720 solid line drive power. He's everything that Nick Kral says 0:46:34.760 --> 0:46:37.160 he wants in a hitter. Is Nick Krawl loves to 0:46:37.200 --> 0:46:39.919 tell us how much he loves alive a line drive hitter. 0:46:40.360 --> 0:46:43.200 That's who Nathaniel is. And so he's going to play 0:46:43.200 --> 0:46:47.480 first base BDH but also be pinch hit extraordinai for 0:46:47.520 --> 0:46:49.960 the Reds from the left side of the plate. And 0:46:50.000 --> 0:46:50.600 I think He's going. 0:46:50.600 --> 0:46:51.920 To be a weapon that the Reds can use in 0:46:51.960 --> 0:46:52.720 multiple spots. 0:46:52.880 --> 0:46:56.800 Okay, good, should be interesting. Ready to play some ball Sunday. 0:46:56.840 --> 0:47:00.440 We got a little taste of what summer like for 0:47:00.560 --> 0:47:02.240 like twenty I felt like you're in Florida for twenty 0:47:02.239 --> 0:47:04.680 four hours and then back to reality. But the forecast 0:47:04.719 --> 0:47:07.799 looks good so far. To get this one in. And 0:47:08.080 --> 0:47:10.440 he is Jeff Carr with Lockdown Reds this morning on 0:47:10.440 --> 0:47:13.719 seven hundred WLW All the best, buddy, Thanks for coming 0:47:13.719 --> 0:47:16.600 in this morning, and I'm ready for some baseball for sure. 0:47:17.560 --> 0:47:19.399 It's funny.

Involves 0:48:20.960 --> 0:48:25.040 a woman who lost her baby who was delivered prematurely, 0:48:25.080 --> 0:48:27.040 but it was because her employers said, now you've got 0:48:27.080 --> 0:48:29.840 to work or you can work from home, and probably 0:48:29.880 --> 0:48:31.719 should have been off in the first place. But there's 0:48:31.760 --> 0:48:33.799 a whole new area, not really new area, but it's 0:48:33.800 --> 0:48:37.560 a growing area of litigation and involves pregnancy litigation in 0:48:37.640 --> 0:48:40.880 the workplace. So we got that coming up also as folks, 0:48:40.920 --> 0:48:42.920 and maybe you get ready to head down town tomorrow. 0:48:43.040 --> 0:48:44.600 Do you know there's a weird part of the law 0:48:44.680 --> 0:48:47.840 Ohio law that says, if you're a driver and you 0:48:47.920 --> 0:48:50.360 strike a pedestrian in the crosswalk, and let's say you 0:48:50.440 --> 0:48:52.520 are not under the influence of anything, but you just 0:48:52.640 --> 0:48:55.319 mistakenly it's an accent. You strike a pedestrian and a 0:48:55.360 --> 0:48:59.800 mark crosswalk. There's no penalty for that. That can change 0:49:00.200 --> 0:49:03.200 under a new law being proposed by Ohio representative of 0:49:03.200 --> 0:49:06.000 Mike Odioso out of Green Township. He will join the 0:49:06.000 --> 0:49:08.120 show at eleven oh six to talk about that. Here 0:49:08.360 --> 0:49:11.240 on the home of those reads seven hundred ww Cincinnati. 0:49:13.239 --> 0:49:19.000 Giving you a vocational leg up on everyone else. Here's 0:49:19.040 --> 0:49:21.120 our career. Julie Balch. 0:49:21.239 --> 0:49:23.919 Yeah, every Wednesday, Julie jumps into discuss here on seven 0:49:24.000 --> 0:49:27.960 hundred WA. Tav no exception in the big story. Hamlin 0:49:28.040 --> 0:49:30.160 County jury handed down a twenty two and a half 0:49:30.200 --> 0:49:33.720 million dollar verdict yesterday in the wrongful death lawsuit against 0:49:33.960 --> 0:49:38.800 TQL Totally Quality Logistics, and the lawsuit said that TQL 0:49:38.800 --> 0:49:41.360 dinighted a pregnant employe's request to work from home, leading 0:49:41.400 --> 0:49:44.360 to the death of her prematurely born daughter. It's a 0:49:44.400 --> 0:49:47.759 horrible story, but there is a lesson here because this 0:49:47.920 --> 0:49:50.600 area of law Higher's pregnancy law is really starting to 0:49:50.640 --> 0:49:52.200 work its way into the workplace as it should. 0:49:52.239 --> 0:49:58.040 Julie, welcome. How are you? What I said, Julie, Julie welcome? 0:49:58.040 --> 0:49:58.959 How are you sorry? 0:50:02.400 --> 0:50:02.839 Next week? 0:50:02.920 --> 0:50:05.319 Do you did you swap your here?

You'd fired people, you threw the book at him, 0:50:23.560 --> 0:50:27.000 you punished, you penalized that you went on with glee, right, 0:50:27.440 --> 0:50:31.560 glee just sitting behind the desk. She struck fear in 0:50:31.600 --> 0:50:34.160 the hearts of workers at a large and small and 0:50:34.280 --> 0:50:36.120 medium sized companies city wide. 0:50:36.120 --> 0:50:37.840 So let me ask you a big question. You're ready, 0:50:39.239 --> 0:50:39.760 I'm ready. 0:50:39.800 --> 0:50:42.160 What is the best lie you can use to get 0:50:42.160 --> 0:50:43.760 out of working tomorrow for row to get out opening 0:50:43.840 --> 0:50:45.200 day so you can go to opening day. 0:50:45.239 --> 0:50:46.839 What's a good one? 0:50:47.640 --> 0:50:48.960 What works? What doesn't. 0:50:51.360 --> 0:50:51.560 You know? 0:50:51.600 --> 0:50:55.800 That's tough because you your photo can show up anywhere, 0:50:55.880 --> 0:51:01.000 Remember the Cincinnatians can viral sen say in line to 0:51:01.040 --> 0:51:04.040 buy dealer swift merch with a sheet over her head 0:51:04.040 --> 0:51:05.040 with eyeholes cut out. 0:51:05.280 --> 0:51:08.879 Yeah, that can be you couple. I forget that. 0:51:10.000 --> 0:51:11.759 Yeah yeah, yeah, so's. 0:51:12.040 --> 0:51:14.120 But that's not a fun topic. Tell me, tell me 0:51:14.120 --> 0:51:14.640 a good lie? 0:51:14.680 --> 0:51:14.839 What? 0:51:14.840 --> 0:51:15.400 What? 0:51:15.400 --> 0:51:15.680 What? 0:51:15.680 --> 0:51:18.080 What's a lie that HR people would believe? 0:51:21.120 --> 0:51:22.799 It's not the HR people. You got to deal with 0:51:22.840 --> 0:51:24.719 the person you're reporting to. It's not up to HR. 0:51:24.800 --> 0:51:26.200 It's up to the person you're reporting to. 0:51:27.000 --> 0:51:29.040 Yeah, but you probably know some pretty good scams. 0:51:29.160 --> 0:51:31.719 You could get caught. Well, I think take one of 0:51:31.760 --> 0:51:33.840 your PTO days and one of your vacations. It is 0:51:33.880 --> 0:51:35.200 that important to have one. 0:51:35.239 --> 0:51:38.799 There was a danger in that. That's stupid, honest. Yeah, 0:51:38.840 --> 0:51:39.280 you should. 0:51:40.400 --> 0:51:42.600 All the pain and suffering you've caused in your career, 0:51:42.680 --> 0:51:43.920 is HR lady, you should do? 0:51:43.920 --> 0:51:47.560 You owe it to us. You all this to us. 0:51:49.160 --> 0:51:51.319 I would think, like, are you excited for opening day? 0:51:51.480 --> 0:51:51.799 I am? 0:51:52.520 --> 0:51:53.399 Is it going to be good weather? 0:51:53.560 --> 0:51:55.920 I think I have irritable bowel? Sinder? Should I come 0:51:55.920 --> 0:51:56.239 to work? 0:51:59.440 --> 0:52:00.200 That's okay? 0:52:00.280 --> 0:52:00.800 Okay? 0:52:01.120 --> 0:52:02.440 Well yeah, because they. 0:52:02.320 --> 0:52:03.919 Have they have bodies at work. 0:52:04.800 --> 0:52:07.560 Yeah, but I man, I'm okay, that's fine, But you 0:52:07.560 --> 0:52:11.640 know what I just ruined a new couch, my new uh, 0:52:11.719 --> 0:52:13.880 my new sofa is completely ruined. If you want me 0:52:13.920 --> 0:52:18.480 to come to work, I'll come to work. You know 0:52:18.480 --> 0:52:20.200 what you should do here, I got it. So you 0:52:20.239 --> 0:52:21.759 do that because no one likes it. You go like, 0:52:21.800 --> 0:52:23.840 I'm coming in, I'm sick, I'm finding and then you 0:52:23.880 --> 0:52:27.800 bring some of that fart spray with you. Oh yeah, okay, 0:52:28.040 --> 0:52:29.560 that would definitely get away. 0:52:29.600 --> 0:52:30.959 You're giving away your whole plan. 0:52:31.080 --> 0:52:34.960 They send you home, I do They just send you 0:52:35.040 --> 0:52:36.680 home and go yeah, you need to go home. This 0:52:36.760 --> 0:52:38.680 is not okay, good, I'll go home and then you 0:52:38.680 --> 0:52:39.839 go right opening to how about that? 0:52:40.520 --> 0:52:44.279 All right? Do that the farts? That's fine? 0:52:44.360 --> 0:52:46.640 Yeah, well, you know what, they've got lots of bathrooms 0:52:46.680 --> 0:52:50.240 at JBP. Let's talk about a much more serious case, 0:52:50.280 --> 0:52:54.759 and this involves the verdict against TQL yesterday. And you know, 0:52:54.760 --> 0:52:56.520 I think it's fair just to pick TQL up because 0:52:56.520 --> 0:52:58.640 it's probably happening all over the place. But take it 0:52:58.760 --> 0:53:00.680 through the story of what happened to a twenty two 0:53:00.680 --> 0:53:03.400 and a half million dollar verdict for this woman the 0:53:03.480 --> 0:53:06.480 estate of Magnolia. Walsh was the infant daughter of an 0:53:06.480 --> 0:53:09.440 employee by the name of Chelsea Walsh. 0:53:09.880 --> 0:53:13.120 Yeah, so the mistake TQL made, at least according to. 0:53:13.080 --> 0:53:16.720 What we're reading. There's always more than what you're reading. 0:53:17.280 --> 0:53:18.120 She had a high. 0:53:18.040 --> 0:53:24.240 Risk pregnancy and her doctor suggested or ordered, or whatever 0:53:24.960 --> 0:53:27.080 authority a doctor has to say, you need to be 0:53:27.160 --> 0:53:28.920 working from home. It's too stressful to go in the 0:53:28.920 --> 0:53:33.160 office on your pregnancy. TQL refused, according to the story, 0:53:33.320 --> 0:53:38.600 and then she lost the baby, and so she sued. 0:53:38.719 --> 0:53:42.480 She and her family sued, and one the jury agreed 0:53:42.880 --> 0:53:46.239 that her request was reasonable. And I know we all 0:53:46.239 --> 0:53:48.640 have a different interpretation of what's reasonable, and I don't. 0:53:48.480 --> 0:53:49.520 Know what her job was. 0:53:49.960 --> 0:53:54.719 I think the lesson here is we are we are 0:53:54.760 --> 0:54:00.680 so far away from the old work force makeup it's 0:54:00.760 --> 0:54:03.920 men and then the women are at home giving birth 0:54:04.560 --> 0:54:08.320 and raising the children, that employers have to be hyper 0:54:08.440 --> 0:54:13.480 aware and err on the side of caution when it comes. 0:54:13.160 --> 0:54:16.680 To what they require from people. 0:54:16.719 --> 0:54:20.560 Who aren't just pregnant, but also who have other disabilities, 0:54:20.880 --> 0:54:23.480 who have issues they have to take care of. There 0:54:23.520 --> 0:54:27.680 needs to be a reasonable policy. 0:54:26.560 --> 0:54:29.320 And the jury found that saying. 0:54:29.480 --> 0:54:32.759 No to her request to work from home based on 0:54:32.800 --> 0:54:36.160 doctor's orders was unreasonable. And I think you've got a 0:54:36.239 --> 0:54:39.759 jury of people who've had kids, who have grandkids, who 0:54:39.800 --> 0:54:42.440 put themselves in her shoes and say, yeah, that was 0:54:43.080 --> 0:54:47.600 big bad company here they kicking on this young pregnanty. Yeah, 0:54:47.680 --> 0:54:50.800 no it doesn't. And so as we say about everything, 0:54:51.360 --> 0:54:54.880 think about think about the always think about what precedent 0:54:54.920 --> 0:54:55.719 have you already set? 0:54:56.200 --> 0:54:58.319 You want to be consistent, but you want to make 0:54:58.360 --> 0:55:01.160 sure you don't want your name in the headlines. 0:55:01.239 --> 0:55:05.480 Is having to pay out twenty two million dollars? Yeah, 0:55:05.520 --> 0:55:07.400 And now you look at this and you say okay. 0:55:07.440 --> 0:55:10.040 So then one of the things that I wanted to 0:55:10.040 --> 0:55:11.720 bring up to with this is when. 0:55:11.600 --> 0:55:15.800 You look at the stats at the workplace stacks moving forward, 0:55:15.960 --> 0:55:20.040 in terms of just pure men and women, women are 0:55:20.040 --> 0:55:24.440 graduating from college at a higher pace they are. Their 0:55:24.560 --> 0:55:28.240 labor force participation rate is fifty eight percent and growing, 0:55:28.800 --> 0:55:31.239 while for men it's sixty eight percent, which is a 0:55:31.280 --> 0:55:35.120 significant decline over the past decades. And the proportion of 0:55:35.160 --> 0:55:37.760 women in the workforce with at least a college degree 0:55:37.800 --> 0:55:42.120 is seventy percent. And so when you look at what 0:55:42.280 --> 0:55:45.960 is it that what is it that we have to do. 0:55:46.280 --> 0:55:48.520 To make sure that we are making. 0:55:48.239 --> 0:55:55.520 It possible for women to start families have children come 0:55:55.560 --> 0:55:59.840 back and still have their job, which FEMLA requires. The 0:56:00.120 --> 0:56:03.360 Family Medical Leave Act requires that, but the requirement is 0:56:03.400 --> 0:56:07.080 SEMLA is also unpaid leave, and many many people cannot 0:56:07.080 --> 0:56:09.400 afford that, and that may have been her situation, but 0:56:09.520 --> 0:56:10.680 she couldn't afford. 0:56:10.360 --> 0:56:11.239 To take on paid leave. 0:56:11.360 --> 0:56:13.799 I don't know, that's a great question, because that to 0:56:13.840 --> 0:56:15.239 me was I don't know if I missed it or not, 0:56:15.280 --> 0:56:17.480 but it was like, so she requested work from home 0:56:17.520 --> 0:56:20.120 for the doctor's orders. Tikebel denied it, but they placed 0:56:20.160 --> 0:56:22.839 her on leave against her wishes, and I thought, okay, well, 0:56:22.880 --> 0:56:25.919 if it's unpaid leave, I guess and that caused enough 0:56:25.920 --> 0:56:28.719 stress to because maybe the way to look at it 0:56:28.880 --> 0:56:31.319 two things. I mean, we're presuming that I know there's 0:56:31.320 --> 0:56:33.239 an imbalance in the workplace right now, there's a lot 0:56:33.280 --> 0:56:36.560 more women in the workforce, but not represented as much 0:56:36.600 --> 0:56:38.520 in the upper echelons of business. I think that takes 0:56:38.520 --> 0:56:40.840 some time. It's a lagging indicator. But you know, I 0:56:40.840 --> 0:56:42.719 don't know if you're presuming or not that there's no 0:56:42.760 --> 0:56:45.040 women involved in this decision. I would be hard persson 0:56:45.080 --> 0:56:48.480 believe there is someone along lines of female going Hey, listen, 0:56:48.600 --> 0:56:50.239 just so you know, and you know, you can be 0:56:50.280 --> 0:56:52.320 a man and understand pregnancy law. There are plenty of 0:56:52.400 --> 0:56:54.440 lawyers that are fighting for her in the estate that 0:56:54.960 --> 0:56:57.360 won this thing. But I guess the whole leave against 0:56:57.360 --> 0:56:59.839 her wishes thing, and I'd never consider that. It's like, okay, 0:56:59.840 --> 0:57:02.920 if unforced unpaid leave, well, I got bills to pay, 0:57:03.160 --> 0:57:04.320 so I have to work. 0:57:04.840 --> 0:57:07.439 I guess she shows up at the office. So that's 0:57:07.480 --> 0:57:08.240 a huge problem. 0:57:09.520 --> 0:57:10.680 Yeah, and I think she was. 0:57:11.080 --> 0:57:13.160 She lost the baby at twenty weeks, I believe, and 0:57:13.200 --> 0:57:16.840 so she would have had to have several months or 0:57:16.960 --> 0:57:19.680 you know, a handful of months anyway of unpaid leave. 0:57:19.720 --> 0:57:23.840 And who can afford that, very very few people. And 0:57:23.880 --> 0:57:25.800 so when when these cases. 0:57:25.480 --> 0:57:29.400 Are looked at, I mean, no attorney, but reasonable, what's reasonable? 0:57:29.440 --> 0:57:33.640 What's a reasonable accommodation? And it's just for a few. 0:57:33.480 --> 0:57:37.400 Months period, And what can you do as an employer 0:57:38.080 --> 0:57:43.120 with many resources at your disposal to make this make 0:57:43.200 --> 0:57:48.480 this work for everyone involved? Presumably she was a valued employee, 0:57:49.240 --> 0:57:51.960 So what can you do to make this work versus 0:57:52.520 --> 0:57:55.960 having to train somebody else if you force her out? 0:57:56.120 --> 0:57:59.200 And so there's when we look at the way that 0:57:59.840 --> 0:58:03.520 this is something that all employers should be taking a 0:58:03.560 --> 0:58:06.720 look at how do we And there's a lot of 0:58:06.720 --> 0:58:09.800 great information online about what the Family Medical Leave Act 0:58:09.920 --> 0:58:11.120 actually requires of you. 0:58:11.560 --> 0:58:12.480 So it's not just. 0:58:12.760 --> 0:58:15.960 Pregnancy, it's to take care of an elderly parent, deal 0:58:16.000 --> 0:58:19.360 with your own personal situation when you adopt a child. 0:58:19.400 --> 0:58:22.880 And there's a lot of requirements around this. But it's 0:58:23.160 --> 0:58:25.400 unpaid and that's yeah, got it. 0:58:25.440 --> 0:58:25.880 A lot of. 0:58:25.800 --> 0:58:28.360 Companies will have short term disability. So maybe you get 0:58:28.360 --> 0:58:30.360 paid some percent of your salary. 0:58:30.440 --> 0:58:33.560 But what can you do to be reasonable because. 0:58:33.240 --> 0:58:36.680 Your workforce is going to be if it's not already 0:58:36.720 --> 0:58:37.720 predominantly women. 0:58:38.040 --> 0:58:39.320 Depending on the industry you're. 0:58:39.240 --> 0:58:42.080 In, you will have more women in the workforce who 0:58:42.120 --> 0:58:44.840 will be of child bearing age, and so what can 0:58:44.840 --> 0:58:47.320 you do to get ahead of these things before you're 0:58:47.320 --> 0:58:48.000 a headline? 0:58:48.440 --> 0:58:50.360 How cow many think this mistake is. I mean, it's 0:58:50.400 --> 0:58:52.560 just tique you on the headlines. But I'm sure this 0:58:52.640 --> 0:58:57.360 happens a lot in trying to navigate pregnant work or fairness. 0:58:57.560 --> 0:58:59.200 Yeah, yeah, I'm sure it does too. 0:59:00.040 --> 0:59:02.760 And when you look at there are certain there are 0:59:03.240 --> 0:59:05.560 for companies with under fifty employees. 0:59:05.600 --> 0:59:07.400 I think the number fifty. 0:59:08.080 --> 0:59:11.400 You're not required to provide any unpaid time, because the 0:59:11.440 --> 0:59:14.400 thought there is that that you have a small workforce 0:59:15.360 --> 0:59:18.240 that that can have an undue impact or a signific 0:59:18.240 --> 0:59:20.240 an outsized impact. 0:59:19.800 --> 0:59:23.720 When you have you know, one or two people out And. 0:59:23.600 --> 0:59:25.960 So it's it's I think it's when you look at 0:59:26.040 --> 0:59:29.640 what's the makeup of our workforce, what is required of us? 0:59:29.720 --> 0:59:31.360 And then what do we want to do? 0:59:31.800 --> 0:59:33.720 And part of this, when you look at it all, 0:59:33.800 --> 0:59:36.600 it goes back to what kind of message are you sending. 0:59:36.920 --> 0:59:39.280 So I'm a young woman looking at TQL as a 0:59:39.280 --> 0:59:41.720 potential employer, going yeah, maybe not because I want to. 0:59:41.640 --> 0:59:45.400 Have babies someday and maybe, and so it becomes again. 0:59:45.800 --> 0:59:49.360 A retention, a recruiting issue, a hiring issue, a retention 0:59:49.440 --> 0:59:51.120 and engagement issue. 0:59:50.880 --> 0:59:53.000 And this is the kind of press you don't want. 0:59:53.040 --> 0:59:55.000 So yeah, there could be a ton of these happening, 0:59:55.280 --> 0:59:58.520 but they get settled before they get to a big. 0:59:58.320 --> 1:00:02.320 Outcome like this, a big splashy upcome like this. And yeah, 1:00:02.520 --> 1:00:03.200 I think there's a. 1:00:03.160 --> 1:00:05.800 Lot of lack of awareness not only on the side 1:00:05.840 --> 1:00:08.800 of employers, but but also in the employees themselves, and 1:00:08.840 --> 1:00:12.120 so they may really not even know what benefits they 1:00:12.120 --> 1:00:12.800 have available. 1:00:12.840 --> 1:00:15.240 So I think both sides need to avail themselves and 1:00:15.280 --> 1:00:16.120 get super. 1:00:15.800 --> 1:00:19.920 Familiar with with you know, with what with what is 1:00:19.960 --> 1:00:22.440 available and plan accordingly. 1:00:21.960 --> 1:00:24.880 Well as a career counselor yourself as a coach. And 1:00:24.920 --> 1:00:27.000 that's a key, right, I mean, employees need to know. 1:00:28.560 --> 1:00:30.400 Here's an example, what do you need to know about 1:00:30.440 --> 1:00:33.160 documenting accommodation request or protect yourself Because you've got to 1:00:33.160 --> 1:00:34.920 build a case. You always got to think, Okay, I'm 1:00:34.920 --> 1:00:37.680 doing this, are my t's crossed, my eyes dotted? 1:00:37.680 --> 1:00:38.200 What do you need? 1:00:39.680 --> 1:00:40.120 Yeah? 1:00:40.200 --> 1:00:43.240 Yeah, And that's and and and that's where the doctor 1:00:43.240 --> 1:00:45.680 in this case it was actually it wasn't just I 1:00:45.680 --> 1:00:46.480 don't feel. 1:00:46.200 --> 1:00:47.280 Good, I want to work from home. 1:00:47.440 --> 1:00:53.160 Know, it was the doctor who presumably knows more about 1:00:53.160 --> 1:00:55.760 this situation than anyone from a medical perspective and a 1:00:55.800 --> 1:00:56.640 risk perspective. 1:00:57.240 --> 1:00:58.640 When you bring in those. 1:00:58.480 --> 1:01:02.640 Authorities who are saying, yes, again, this is you continuing 1:01:02.640 --> 1:01:04.120 to go into the office. 1:01:04.120 --> 1:01:07.440 Is against my is against my best judgment. And she 1:01:07.560 --> 1:01:08.360 continued to go in. 1:01:08.400 --> 1:01:12.320 From what I understand, But when you look at the fact, 1:01:12.400 --> 1:01:15.200 like you said, I'm not getting paid and so I'm 1:01:15.240 --> 1:01:18.320 going to drag myself through this and hope for the best. 1:01:18.560 --> 1:01:20.640 And so what is the employer's role? And I think 1:01:20.680 --> 1:01:21.840 that's that's a question. 1:01:21.920 --> 1:01:24.760 There's what's legal, and then there's what how what kind 1:01:24.760 --> 1:01:28.840 of workplace do you want to build as as an employer, 1:01:28.920 --> 1:01:31.120 because she's not gonna be up forever. 1:01:30.880 --> 1:01:33.040 It's just a few months. Certainly you can cover that. 1:01:33.560 --> 1:01:35.840 If there was an auto accident, you'd have to cover that. 1:01:36.320 --> 1:01:38.000 So what do you want to do to err on 1:01:38.040 --> 1:01:40.760 the side of building the type of environment where people 1:01:40.840 --> 1:01:41.880 want to come and stay. 1:01:41.760 --> 1:01:42.840 Which they probably do. 1:01:42.920 --> 1:01:44.600 But you know, in this case, you look at it 1:01:44.600 --> 1:01:48.080 go wow, you knew the Sometimes you get so focused 1:01:48.120 --> 1:01:50.080 on the details that you lose sight of the big picture, 1:01:50.080 --> 1:01:52.560 and that is if this goes before a jury, we're 1:01:52.600 --> 1:01:55.320 going to lose because no one is going to work 1:01:55.320 --> 1:01:59.480 against a young woman who just lost her child. And 1:02:00.160 --> 1:02:01.920 you know, I guess the story said they had a 1:02:01.960 --> 1:02:04.320 chance to settle for far far less was the quote. 1:02:04.360 --> 1:02:07.120 But I don't know was that more of a legal 1:02:07.160 --> 1:02:11.080 culture or as a role to the dice thinking that 1:02:10.880 --> 1:02:12.720 that that this would be sound legally like. 1:02:13.200 --> 1:02:13.600 I don't know. 1:02:13.640 --> 1:02:16.040 I'm not a lawyer, but I look at it go damn, yeah, 1:02:16.240 --> 1:02:19.280 you're going a hard time getting a jury to consider 1:02:19.320 --> 1:02:21.080 that and go, oh, I'm on the company side here, 1:02:21.120 --> 1:02:22.000 it's not gonna happen. 1:02:23.280 --> 1:02:23.520 Yeah. 1:02:23.600 --> 1:02:26.000 I have seen those types of cases to the situations 1:02:26.000 --> 1:02:30.000 of employment law where the ego of the employer is 1:02:30.480 --> 1:02:33.840 I'd rather take this to court. And I'm not saying 1:02:33.840 --> 1:02:35.560 that's what happened here, but I'd rather take this to 1:02:35.600 --> 1:02:38.520 court and settle for millions and millions. 1:02:38.080 --> 1:02:40.840 Than to than to settle this for five hundred thousand 1:02:40.840 --> 1:02:44.560 and admit we were wrong. And I've seen Yeah. 1:02:44.480 --> 1:02:48.240 It's okay, but you're taking a pretty big chance here. 1:02:48.880 --> 1:02:51.320 And I mean I've had those conversations when I was 1:02:51.360 --> 1:02:53.800 in HR and had those conversations with leaders with people 1:02:53.840 --> 1:02:56.880 making those decisions, and it just it just made no sense. 1:02:57.200 --> 1:02:59.400 But you could tell it was just ego and I'm 1:02:59.400 --> 1:02:59.840 going to win. 1:03:00.000 --> 1:03:04.920 And yeah, so you win, quote unquote because you take 1:03:04.960 --> 1:03:05.600 it to the jury. 1:03:05.640 --> 1:03:06.760 But now you're the big loser. 1:03:06.880 --> 1:03:11.680 So gets to culture, gets to leadership, gets to employee relations, 1:03:11.880 --> 1:03:15.560 policies and strategies. And you know, again, we only know 1:03:15.600 --> 1:03:16.360 it's been reported. 1:03:16.400 --> 1:03:18.360 Yeah, and I think that's fair, you know, because yeah, 1:03:18.440 --> 1:03:20.400 from those I know work at it's a great company. 1:03:20.440 --> 1:03:22.480 And but you know, you hear that and go, well, 1:03:22.520 --> 1:03:24.280 they could have settled earlier and save a whole bun 1:03:24.320 --> 1:03:25.640 of money. Maybe they don't want to lose, and maybe 1:03:25.680 --> 1:03:27.960 it's a culture there, but it could also be the 1:03:27.960 --> 1:03:29.960 fact that there are some elements of the story that 1:03:30.000 --> 1:03:32.280 we're not hearing. Of course, this is a clean, sanitized 1:03:32.320 --> 1:03:35.200 news version, and maybe they had reason for not allowing 1:03:35.200 --> 1:03:38.120 what they did. And again the emotion wore out over 1:03:38.160 --> 1:03:40.120 the fact that couldn't be entirely possible as well. 1:03:41.640 --> 1:03:44.760 Yeah, but like you said, once you get twelve or whatever, 1:03:44.880 --> 1:03:47.640 never is in a jury box of average citizens looking 1:03:47.680 --> 1:03:50.000 at a mother who lost your child. 1:03:51.360 --> 1:03:53.400 You're just going to in a court of public opinion. 1:03:54.040 --> 1:03:54.640 You've lost. 1:03:55.080 --> 1:03:58.400 And there is a cost to that as well. 1:03:58.480 --> 1:03:59.880 And if you decide you're willing to. 1:03:59.840 --> 1:04:02.560 Bear that and have you that headline be out there, 1:04:03.920 --> 1:04:06.040 you know, is certainly your choice is an organization. 1:04:06.160 --> 1:04:09.080 Yeah, Pregnant Workers Fairness active twenty twenty three went to 1:04:09.120 --> 1:04:11.400 effect back then three years ago, and so that's something 1:04:11.440 --> 1:04:14.360 if you're an employer, you've got to familiarize yourself because 1:04:14.400 --> 1:04:16.600 you learn lost things from things like this. Julie Bouki 1:04:16.640 --> 1:04:20.080 our cruise shipa every Wednesday morning, the Balkigroup dot COM's website. 1:04:20.080 --> 1:04:22.240 Appreciate it and we'll talk to you next week. 1:04:23.240 --> 1:04:24.960 Yes, we will, and. 1:04:25.000 --> 1:04:27.080 Of course this will be after the Reds open the 1:04:27.080 --> 1:04:29.280 season tomorrow. We're a live with the Holy gral Bank 1:04:29.320 --> 1:04:31.240 starting at nine o'clock here on the Home of the 1:04:31.280 --> 1:04:33.160 Red seven hundred WWT, Cincinnati. 1:04:33.400 --> 1:04:35.600 Do you want to be an American idiot? 1:04:36.320 --> 1:04:40.160 It's Scott's Long Show on seven hundred WLW Ohio. 1:04:40.360 --> 1:04:42.760 Drivers. You may not know it, but right now the 1:04:42.840 --> 1:04:45.040 law has a bit of a gap. And so let's 1:04:45.080 --> 1:04:47.480 say there's a drive somebody's driving all crazy. They're not drunk, 1:04:47.600 --> 1:04:51.440 just reckless, just negligent, and they hit someone in a crosswalk. 1:04:52.600 --> 1:04:54.920 That may not be a crime under current law, believe 1:04:54.920 --> 1:04:57.760 it or not. And as the summer season begins, as 1:04:57.800 --> 1:05:01.800 we have literally tens of thousands of people downtown Cincinnati 1:05:01.880 --> 1:05:05.720 tomorrow for opening Day twenty twenty six, this leaves one 1:05:05.760 --> 1:05:08.280 asking is why is the law drunk in this regard? 1:05:09.560 --> 1:05:12.800 Representative on Mike Audioso is here. He's from Green Township 1:05:12.800 --> 1:05:15.280 and he joins the show to discuss because he's got 1:05:15.320 --> 1:05:18.680 a bipartisan bill. Bipartisan, I said, which means two parties 1:05:18.720 --> 1:05:20.840 working together, which is odd these days. I know, Mike, 1:05:20.880 --> 1:05:21.360 how are you. 1:05:22.280 --> 1:05:24.640 Hey, Scott, I'm doing great. Thanks for having me on. 1:05:24.760 --> 1:05:28.280 I really appreciate it. Yeah, it's a bipartisanville. And yeah 1:05:28.280 --> 1:05:32.200 you're timing with opening day right around the corner, I 1:05:32.200 --> 1:05:36.680 mean tomorrow and other times when you know, the streets 1:05:36.720 --> 1:05:41.040 get busy with traffic and also pedestrian traffic. You're absolutely right. 1:05:41.760 --> 1:05:45.040 Cincinnati's weird though, because obviously it's a major metro, large 1:05:45.040 --> 1:05:47.840 metro area, but the bulk of population, of course is 1:05:47.880 --> 1:05:48.280 a donut. 1:05:48.320 --> 1:05:48.960 It lives around. 1:05:49.120 --> 1:05:51.440 So if you live in the suburbs and the communities 1:05:51.440 --> 1:05:55.120 around Cincinnati, and also I would say Butler, Warren, Claremont Counties. 1:05:55.320 --> 1:05:57.240 I throw Kentucky in there as well. You're like, well, 1:05:57.280 --> 1:05:59.000 you know, I'm not downtown. I have to worry about 1:05:59.000 --> 1:05:59.840 that stuff as much. 1:06:00.880 --> 1:06:01.240 How much? 1:06:01.240 --> 1:06:03.439 Also is that a factor because typically you talk about 1:06:03.440 --> 1:06:06.600 pedestrian cor accents, you think of the big cities, But 1:06:06.680 --> 1:06:08.840 it happens all over. It happens in Green Township, doesn't it. 1:06:09.520 --> 1:06:12.240 Yes, it happens in Green Township. I think I just 1:06:12.360 --> 1:06:17.520 asked people to picture Glenway Avenue. You can picture Corane Avenue. 1:06:17.560 --> 1:06:20.360 Those are just two that pop in the in my head. Sure, 1:06:21.240 --> 1:06:25.080 and having since that's uh, you know in my district 1:06:25.120 --> 1:06:27.640 or right next to my district, I mean, and I 1:06:28.000 --> 1:06:30.720 travel there all the time. I mean, it's I think 1:06:30.720 --> 1:06:34.800 people that do that understand it. It also affects the suburbs. 1:06:35.240 --> 1:06:37.280 Yeah, it's it's pretty much everywhere. If you cross a 1:06:37.360 --> 1:06:39.840 road that that's you. Was there a moment or an 1:06:39.880 --> 1:06:41.680 incident that made you say, hey, we need. 1:06:41.600 --> 1:06:46.080 To fix this, Well, it was. It was multifaceted. There 1:06:46.080 --> 1:06:50.200 are moments on the streets of downtown and elsewhere where. 1:06:50.280 --> 1:06:54.280 I'm both a pedestrian and I'm both a driver, so 1:06:54.480 --> 1:06:57.960 I you know, in pushing this legislation, I'm just reminding 1:06:57.960 --> 1:07:02.400 folks that we were both and so this applies to 1:07:02.480 --> 1:07:09.400 us both in different situations. The Rep. Secrets is the 1:07:09.880 --> 1:07:14.240 joint sponsor of the bill, and in his district, there 1:07:14.400 --> 1:07:18.800 was someone who was in a wheelchair who got hit 1:07:19.000 --> 1:07:24.760 negligently by a driver, seriously injured, going from being in 1:07:24.760 --> 1:07:28.880 a wheelchair to being a quadriplegic and nonverbal, and when 1:07:28.880 --> 1:07:32.120 it came time to the charging section, there wasn't anything there. 1:07:33.320 --> 1:07:37.560 So that Rep. Secrets brought that to my attention and 1:07:38.080 --> 1:07:40.040 I thought about that, and I thought, well, that doesn't 1:07:40.080 --> 1:07:43.800 make any sense at all. And so in the bill, 1:07:44.480 --> 1:07:46.120 and he was the leader of this part of the bill, 1:07:46.160 --> 1:07:50.840 which I totally concur with. It creates a second degree misdemeanor, 1:07:51.320 --> 1:07:55.040 and it also enhances to a first degree misdemeanor if 1:07:55.400 --> 1:07:59.080 you negligently with your vehicle hit somebody and a cross 1:07:59.080 --> 1:08:04.160 flock that is you know legally there, uh it. It 1:08:05.200 --> 1:08:08.240 creates a now a second degree misdemeanor and a first 1:08:08.240 --> 1:08:12.919 degree misdemeanor with enhancements. And that makes complete sense to me. Now, 1:08:13.160 --> 1:08:16.519 my part of the bill, which he's also joining me with, 1:08:17.040 --> 1:08:19.960 has to do with that. Also that moment in that crosswalk, 1:08:20.760 --> 1:08:23.559 which again you know, doing this all the time, and 1:08:23.600 --> 1:08:26.680 since I've been writing and sponsored the bill, I've been 1:08:26.840 --> 1:08:29.679 you know, as I drive, I think about this bill 1:08:29.720 --> 1:08:32.360 when i'm you know, going through downtown or along the 1:08:32.360 --> 1:08:35.840 Thaoro affairs of the verbs. So what this bill does, 1:08:36.240 --> 1:08:39.280 in my part, and this is essentially under forty five 1:08:39.320 --> 1:08:42.800 eleven one and forty five eleven four to six, it 1:08:43.000 --> 1:08:47.559 simplifies and provides clarity to that moment for the driver 1:08:47.720 --> 1:08:50.640 when they approach a crosswalk. There was a lot of 1:08:50.680 --> 1:08:53.960 gobbly group. And I don't know if that's a legal term. 1:08:54.040 --> 1:08:55.280 I believe that is a legal term. 1:08:55.360 --> 1:08:59.760 Yeah, which I'm not going to read right now. That 1:08:59.880 --> 1:09:03.960 was taken out. And now the basic premise is that 1:09:04.040 --> 1:09:09.439 the driver of a vehicle shall stop and yield the 1:09:09.520 --> 1:09:13.320 right of way. Before it said shall yield the right 1:09:13.320 --> 1:09:15.840 of way slowing down or stopping. 1:09:15.439 --> 1:09:16.000 If need be. 1:09:17.640 --> 1:09:21.040 Uh to so yield, or if required by section four 1:09:21.160 --> 1:09:25.320 five one blah blah blah, and then and and again 1:09:25.600 --> 1:09:29.320 it says the pedestrian crossing lawfully within the crosswalk. What 1:09:29.360 --> 1:09:31.400 we took out was upon the half of the roadway 1:09:31.479 --> 1:09:34.520 upon which the vehicle is traveling, or when the pedestrians 1:09:34.560 --> 1:09:38.640 approaching so closely from the office, you get the idea. 1:09:38.880 --> 1:09:41.200 So we took those things out, and now it's just 1:09:41.280 --> 1:09:45.200 reads that the driver shall stop and yield the right 1:09:45.240 --> 1:09:51.360 of way, uh to the pedestrian crossing lawfully within the crosswalk. 1:09:51.479 --> 1:09:53.360 Got to be in the crosswalk and in the line 1:09:53.439 --> 1:09:55.919 cross speakers. We're getting because because their current. 1:09:55.760 --> 1:09:58.559 Law, Mike, if you're if you're a sober, distracted driver 1:09:58.720 --> 1:10:00.840 or just driver, you hit a pedest in a crosswalk 1:10:01.040 --> 1:10:03.840 and you cause serious injury, what level of crime. 1:10:03.880 --> 1:10:05.160 Is it is it a crime in Ohio? 1:10:05.680 --> 1:10:09.559 It's not a crime. That's crazy and so, uh, this 1:10:09.680 --> 1:10:11.960 isn't as it relates to negligence. So you're talking about 1:10:11.960 --> 1:10:16.280 the negligence. Yeah, yeah, there you can. If you negligently 1:10:16.360 --> 1:10:19.280 kill someone in a crosswalk, that is a crime. But 1:10:19.360 --> 1:10:23.000 if you negligently seriously injure, and that's the key here, 1:10:23.040 --> 1:10:27.479 is seriously injured, this bill would create a second degree 1:10:27.479 --> 1:10:29.640 and then a first degree. 1:10:30.160 --> 1:10:31.920 It is even hard to believe. I mean, you know, 1:10:31.960 --> 1:10:34.000 we often talk on my end of the business here, Mike. 1:10:34.040 --> 1:10:38.040 You got you're a lawmaker about duplicitous laws. Right, we 1:10:38.360 --> 1:10:40.400 just keep making more law, law, law, law on top 1:10:40.439 --> 1:10:41.679 of law, on top of law. We have a law 1:10:41.720 --> 1:10:43.479 that like, when it comes to second Amendment of guns, 1:10:43.479 --> 1:10:44.400 we need more gun laws. 1:10:44.439 --> 1:10:46.080 Well, we've got plenty of gun laws and force the 1:10:46.080 --> 1:10:46.599 gun laws. 1:10:47.520 --> 1:10:49.800 We've got people running around our streets who cut off 1:10:49.800 --> 1:10:51.880 ankle monitors for crying out loud, and we don't pick 1:10:51.880 --> 1:10:55.600 them up until after they've killed someone. But yeah, in 1:10:55.640 --> 1:10:58.680 this case, it's hard to believe that this day and age, like, 1:10:59.439 --> 1:11:01.519 isn't the whole point of a crosswalk, meaning that's an 1:11:01.560 --> 1:11:04.240 area that's protected for a pedestrian versus a car. And 1:11:04.280 --> 1:11:06.400 you're telling me like, if it's you're not paying attention, 1:11:06.439 --> 1:11:09.479 you're not drunk or under the influence, like you're fine, 1:11:09.479 --> 1:11:12.040 don't it's you just don't let it happen. Again, that's 1:11:12.120 --> 1:11:14.599 kind of crazy to think that this loopholes existed, this law. 1:11:15.400 --> 1:11:19.559 Well, you know, I agree one hundred percent, and that's 1:11:19.560 --> 1:11:22.160 why we're feeling it. But you know, being up here 1:11:22.200 --> 1:11:26.320 for just my my first year after teaching at Saying 1:11:26.320 --> 1:11:28.639 That High School for thirty years, I am also a lawyer, 1:11:30.400 --> 1:11:33.720 it takes you a lot of effort and time to 1:11:33.760 --> 1:11:36.200 get a law passed. Yeah, and maybe someone thought of 1:11:36.240 --> 1:11:38.439 this in the past and then something intervened with a 1:11:39.400 --> 1:11:43.519 maybe a you know, a drunk driving law or something 1:11:43.600 --> 1:11:46.280 like that that's intervened. I don't know why this happened. 1:11:46.520 --> 1:11:49.080 But what it's great is is that we take out 1:11:49.160 --> 1:11:52.960 lines from the existing law and we make it simple 1:11:53.920 --> 1:11:57.240 and as it relates to the actual moment of pedestrian crossing. 1:11:57.640 --> 1:12:01.519 So again, and I think it makes complete sense that 1:12:01.560 --> 1:12:04.719 if someone's in a crosswalk legally that they should stop. 1:12:05.320 --> 1:12:06.800 You as a driver should. 1:12:06.479 --> 1:12:12.040 Stop and yield. And that's a nice bright line. So 1:12:13.120 --> 1:12:19.519 again with negligent, you know, causing physical injury to a 1:12:19.560 --> 1:12:22.840 pedestrian a crosswalk. And as to clarifying that these pedestrian 1:12:23.439 --> 1:12:26.559 rules as it relates to drivers, you know, there are 1:12:26.560 --> 1:12:29.800 already other rules that are there that apply to the pedestrians. 1:12:29.840 --> 1:12:34.320 Pedestrians just can't walk out into a crosswalk if it's unmarked, 1:12:34.880 --> 1:12:38.720 you know, they can't they you know, by the way, 1:12:38.800 --> 1:12:46.000 this bill does reduce the opportunity for misconstruing, malfunctioning, and 1:12:46.160 --> 1:12:51.800 other types of situations crossing, but a pedestrian just can't 1:12:51.800 --> 1:12:54.719 walk out even frankly, under the administrative Code. 1:12:54.920 --> 1:12:55.360 There is a. 1:12:56.840 --> 1:12:59.599 Duty of care. I believe it comes from common law 1:12:59.640 --> 1:13:06.080 that pedestrian, even entering a crosswalk, has to yield to 1:13:06.320 --> 1:13:10.440 a driver who's completing there if they're legally in the crosswalk. 1:13:10.560 --> 1:13:14.360 So there are checks there. And again behind all of this, 1:13:14.439 --> 1:13:18.880 there's common law that both drivers and pedestrians we have 1:13:19.080 --> 1:13:23.240 to always exercise that duty of care, which is being reasonable. 1:13:23.880 --> 1:13:28.280 So again we'll be listening to proponent and opponent testimony. 1:13:28.800 --> 1:13:32.000 Where this exactly goes I will in large part be 1:13:32.320 --> 1:13:35.320 dictated by the Public Safety Committee and Chair Abrams, who 1:13:35.400 --> 1:13:39.040 chairs a committee and what we learned from the testimony. 1:13:39.040 --> 1:13:41.040 But it's a good time I think for really re 1:13:41.200 --> 1:13:44.760 examined what goes on when we're both a driver and 1:13:44.800 --> 1:13:47.800 we're a pedestrian approaching a crosswalk. 1:13:47.920 --> 1:13:50.120 And Mike Cody also in the summer, we see a 1:13:50.120 --> 1:13:53.000 lot of car pedestrian acts, especially in Cincinnati. I mean, 1:13:53.040 --> 1:13:56.080 people drive crazy downtown, but they drive crazy all over 1:13:56.120 --> 1:13:58.479 the place. I just wonder, Okay, we'll pass this law. 1:13:59.000 --> 1:14:00.640 It could be an M two two, an M one 1:14:00.720 --> 1:14:03.280 first degree misdemeanor's pretty serious. It's the level just below 1:14:03.280 --> 1:14:07.320 a fellamy. And and how many people just disregard that 1:14:07.400 --> 1:14:09.760 because they're bad drivers or simply don't care. I mean, 1:14:09.760 --> 1:14:12.040 we have a lot of sociopaths on the on the 1:14:12.120 --> 1:14:13.439 roads and on the streets these days. 1:14:13.439 --> 1:14:13.760 For sure. 1:14:13.800 --> 1:14:15.679 If you just look at crime in and around the city, 1:14:16.200 --> 1:14:17.920 it is a problem, not just in the city but 1:14:18.000 --> 1:14:20.559 everywhere because you're in your little bubble in your car, 1:14:20.640 --> 1:14:23.040 and I think people just don't simply they just they 1:14:23.080 --> 1:14:24.880 don't care if you're a crosswalk or not. They think 1:14:24.920 --> 1:14:27.599 it's their street. I mean we see people, Hell, we've 1:14:27.600 --> 1:14:30.160 got Bengals players speeding up and down crashing their car 1:14:30.200 --> 1:14:33.599 all over the place or crying out loud its And 1:14:33.640 --> 1:14:35.640 it's good that the law has some teeth here. What 1:14:35.720 --> 1:14:38.240 about the repeat offender provision, there's something, as I said, 1:14:38.280 --> 1:14:39.280 people who just don't care. 1:14:39.320 --> 1:14:40.440 What about those folks? 1:14:40.760 --> 1:14:43.840 Yeah, that's the enhancement. So and the in my part 1:14:43.840 --> 1:14:47.799 of the bill about uh, you know, pedestrians, pedestrians crossing 1:14:48.000 --> 1:14:54.520 and the situations that have arrived there, Uh, prior offenses 1:14:54.840 --> 1:14:58.800 enhances the misdemeanor, and so that's that's carried there. And 1:14:58.840 --> 1:15:03.000 the same with the legion causing serious harm provision. Again, 1:15:03.439 --> 1:15:07.280 a prior offense increases the penalty and the level of 1:15:07.280 --> 1:15:09.040 the crime. So that's covered there. 1:15:09.160 --> 1:15:12.200 Good. Good, I guess you said. 1:15:12.200 --> 1:15:14.360 There's going to be some opposition here to speaking as 1:15:14.360 --> 1:15:18.000 always opposition everything, of course, and critics may come out 1:15:18.080 --> 1:15:21.160 during testimony and say this criminalized accidents. How would you 1:15:21.160 --> 1:15:21.720 respond to that. 1:15:23.240 --> 1:15:28.640 Well, criminalizes Well, if there are other accidents that are criminalized, 1:15:28.920 --> 1:15:31.839 you know, right, you know, driving recklessly, causing an accident, 1:15:31.960 --> 1:15:35.720 you know, you have vehicular homicide, you have other you know, 1:15:35.800 --> 1:15:38.600 levels of crime that involve your car, and so that 1:15:38.760 --> 1:15:40.640 that would be one way that I would respond. But 1:15:41.120 --> 1:15:46.160 you know, if if you kill somebody driving negligently in 1:15:46.240 --> 1:15:51.360 a crosswalk, and that's a crime, uh you know, uh, 1:15:52.320 --> 1:15:55.360 and they're killed, that's a crime. Now we're just saying 1:15:55.479 --> 1:15:58.320 if they're seriously injured. I mean, that makes complete sense. 1:15:58.320 --> 1:15:59.960 And I don't know if there's going to be a 1:16:00.240 --> 1:16:02.599 level of opposition. You know, I go into these things 1:16:02.600 --> 1:16:05.799 with an open mind, and I always listen. I listened 1:16:05.880 --> 1:16:08.800 to proponents and I listened to opponents, and we've made 1:16:08.840 --> 1:16:11.439 adjustments to bills based on that. And again, this is 1:16:11.479 --> 1:16:14.000 really going to come down to the Public Safety Committee 1:16:14.000 --> 1:16:16.720 what they want to do with this, and also to 1:16:16.800 --> 1:16:18.760 the chair. So we'll see if they want to broaden it, 1:16:18.840 --> 1:16:21.200 narrow it, whatever they want to do. But I think 1:16:21.880 --> 1:16:24.559 both parts of this build make complete common sense, which 1:16:24.600 --> 1:16:29.120 is something I strongly believe in. Now, you know, what 1:16:29.439 --> 1:16:33.720 we also need in all of this is we need 1:16:33.720 --> 1:16:35.240 to vote for law and order judges. 1:16:35.560 --> 1:16:36.599 Yes, no, kid, no. 1:16:37.200 --> 1:16:41.240 That you know. That's that's also a key part of 1:16:41.280 --> 1:16:45.200 this and all of our crime enforcement. It's very key 1:16:45.200 --> 1:16:48.160 and essential that we vote for law and order judges. 1:16:48.760 --> 1:16:51.320 So that's something that I just would wanted to add briefly. 1:16:51.520 --> 1:16:53.600 I agree with you the reformists have taken over, and 1:16:53.600 --> 1:16:55.760 that the outcome is not pretty, you know, and that 1:16:55.920 --> 1:16:57.680 and after reaction of course of years ago, when we 1:16:57.720 --> 1:17:00.400 had a lot of pro ordered, pro law judges that 1:17:00.439 --> 1:17:02.920 would throw the book it, you know, minor offenses in 1:17:02.960 --> 1:17:05.200 some cases. And then then that way you have the extreme, 1:17:05.240 --> 1:17:06.680 which is, hey, let them all go. And look how 1:17:06.680 --> 1:17:09.479 that's working for us. It's terrible. Hopefully we can find 1:17:09.479 --> 1:17:12.479 some middle ground here. Yeah, I mentioned that critics will criminalize, 1:17:12.840 --> 1:17:15.280 say this is criminalized accidents. But you know, if you 1:17:15.360 --> 1:17:17.680 go through a stop sign, that's a solvable offense. You know, 1:17:18.000 --> 1:17:21.600 a marked crosswalk is a traffic safety device, much like 1:17:21.600 --> 1:17:22.840 a stop sign or a stop light. 1:17:23.560 --> 1:17:26.320 Right, that's correct. I totally agree with you, one hundred percent. 1:17:26.680 --> 1:17:29.240 Yeah, we just don't pay it sometimes, and you know 1:17:29.280 --> 1:17:30.920 I've been guilty of it. Maybe you have too, Mike, 1:17:30.960 --> 1:17:33.040 I'll admit it. Where I'm driving, I'm like, oh, hey, 1:17:33.040 --> 1:17:35.880 there's a crosswalk there. Because you're distracted by everything around you, 1:17:35.920 --> 1:17:37.479 there's signs all over, you don't really see it. And 1:17:37.520 --> 1:17:38.880 then you come up to it, you're like, slow down 1:17:38.920 --> 1:17:41.000 and there's somebody waiting to cross, and you know, for me, 1:17:41.040 --> 1:17:42.600 I'm like oh, I'm my bad. I I you know, 1:17:42.600 --> 1:17:44.280 I didn't see you wanting to cross there because there's 1:17:44.280 --> 1:17:47.000 so much going on. So I don't know what if 1:17:47.040 --> 1:17:48.520 I do that I should be cited. 1:17:48.200 --> 1:17:52.000 Though, right well, this is I find it's hilarious in 1:17:52.040 --> 1:17:55.599 my personal life after drafting and putting, introducing this bill, 1:17:55.640 --> 1:17:59.759 and having sponsored testimony yesterday, I am the best driver 1:17:59.880 --> 1:18:03.600 right now anywhere near pedestrians. I am, you know, but 1:18:04.320 --> 1:18:06.920 it's a good thing, you know. I agree there have 1:18:06.920 --> 1:18:09.080 been times I've made mistakes as a driver and as 1:18:09.080 --> 1:18:12.880 a pedestrian. But again, maybe maybe the key to all 1:18:12.960 --> 1:18:15.840 this is tight and awareness of just you know, chill 1:18:15.920 --> 1:18:19.080 out when you come up to pedestrian crossways. You know, 1:18:19.479 --> 1:18:23.479 drivers and then pedestrians, be aware of your surroundings. You know, 1:18:24.160 --> 1:18:26.519 you know, look around, you know, don't just you know, 1:18:26.600 --> 1:18:28.840 jump into a crosswalk without you know, at least looking. 1:18:29.360 --> 1:18:31.320 I mean, there's there's others, you know, But really, I 1:18:32.040 --> 1:18:35.920 really believe that, you know, this is common sense. It's 1:18:35.960 --> 1:18:39.040 a it's a stopping yield. It's you know, you've negligently 1:18:39.120 --> 1:18:45.040 cause someone to have serious bodily harm in a crosswalk. Uh. 1:18:45.320 --> 1:18:48.639 It does not create any felony. The stays in misdemeanor land. 1:18:49.000 --> 1:18:51.080 I think it's I think it's a it's measured. I 1:18:51.120 --> 1:18:53.960 think it's flexible, and I think and this is the 1:18:53.960 --> 1:18:56.800 one reason I brought We brought this. It is enforceable. 1:18:57.120 --> 1:18:59.680 This will make it easier for the police and for 1:18:59.720 --> 1:19:02.800 the prosecutors to enforce these laws. 1:19:02.880 --> 1:19:03.160 Got it. 1:19:03.400 --> 1:19:05.040 That's one of the main reasons we're doing this. 1:19:05.040 --> 1:19:07.960 All right, So what's the timeline for this, Well, we'll. 1:19:07.800 --> 1:19:11.080 See what happens. We're gonna go on spring break. I 1:19:11.120 --> 1:19:14.000 think we had a good response from the committee yesterday. 1:19:14.280 --> 1:19:16.559 I would hope that we would pursue, you know, having 1:19:16.560 --> 1:19:20.080 a proponent and opponents test money and you know, the 1:19:20.080 --> 1:19:22.120 rest of May in June and then see what happens. 1:19:22.160 --> 1:19:24.880 Okay, Yeah, so I'll circle back with it. And how's 1:19:24.880 --> 1:19:25.240 that sound. 1:19:25.680 --> 1:19:27.240 That's my pleasure. That's great. 1:19:27.280 --> 1:19:27.840 I appreciate it. 1:19:28.240 --> 1:19:29.639 Hi, thanks for coming on the show this Mark.

That is some good law right there. 1:19:33.560 --> 1:19:36.480 How about that in this day and age. Mike Odiosa 1:19:36.520 --> 1:19:38.960 represented from Green Township that you can hit someone on 1:19:39.040 --> 1:19:41.160 a crosswalk as a driver and they're in the middle 1:19:41.160 --> 1:19:44.280 of the crosswalk legally and there's no penalty for that. 1:19:44.280 --> 1:19:45.840 That's that seems to be insane to me. 1:19:45.880 --> 1:19:48.080 That's taking a twenty twenty six for this to occur, 1:19:48.920 --> 1:19:51.200 especially with all the foot traffic we're going to have 1:19:51.200 --> 1:19:54.280 downtown tomorrow for opening day. Hopefully knock Wood, there's no 1:19:54.400 --> 1:19:58.320 serious accidents.

Who are you wearing? 1:20:48.880 --> 1:20:52.880 Yes, I'm ducked out on some snotty roads today. 1:20:52.920 --> 1:20:53.360 Baby. 1:20:53.479 --> 1:20:56.120 Wait, do you want the good news first? That's trending 1:20:56.160 --> 1:20:57.880 on social or the bad. 1:20:58.040 --> 1:20:59.640 No, we start with the bed. I always lead with 1:20:59.680 --> 1:21:01.160 thats well, our. 1:21:01.080 --> 1:21:04.080 Guy Dolo is dead. What he's not? 1:21:06.640 --> 1:21:11.200 Remember how excited, Remember how excited we were about this rotation. 1:21:11.320 --> 1:21:15.799 We're talking about Hunter Green and Nick Lidolo and Brady Singer. 1:21:19.040 --> 1:21:21.080 Pictures. We may start, we may start six guys. We 1:21:21.400 --> 1:21:23.200 got to look at like all these guys that are. 1:21:23.160 --> 1:21:24.360 Ready to forget it. 1:21:24.960 --> 1:21:31.080 Nicolodolo starting on the il alongside Hunter Green. We got elbows, 1:21:31.160 --> 1:21:34.120 we've got blisters, we got all sorts of problems. 1:21:34.439 --> 1:21:37.960 Nickolodolo said, yeah, this sucks, but it's going to work 1:21:38.000 --> 1:21:40.920 out in the long run. So I don't know, I 1:21:40.920 --> 1:21:41.200 don't know. 1:21:41.240 --> 1:21:43.400 The last time that he went down with this blister thing, 1:21:43.439 --> 1:21:44.920 he was out for twenty three days. 1:21:45.040 --> 1:21:45.479 Good lord. 1:21:45.600 --> 1:21:48.320 Brady Singer, on the other hand, he had a blister 1:21:48.479 --> 1:21:51.360 and he was and he was back after a couple 1:21:51.400 --> 1:21:53.320 of days. He didn't miss a start in spring ball. 1:21:53.400 --> 1:21:57.360 So probably to start here, I would imagine, so, yes, 1:21:57.439 --> 1:21:59.679 because the other day he threw about fifteen to twenty 1:21:59.720 --> 1:22:03.320 ball and he goes that that's it. That's enough. You 1:22:03.320 --> 1:22:05.920 don't want that thing to open up any further and 1:22:05.960 --> 1:22:07.559 make it well who else? 1:22:08.360 --> 1:22:08.720 All right? 1:22:08.760 --> 1:22:10.280 So this is going to be our rotation now. 1:22:10.320 --> 1:22:14.160 So obviously Andrew Rabbit on opening Day very. 1:22:14.000 --> 1:22:14.800 Excited for that. 1:22:15.000 --> 1:22:17.200 There we go then, and Rabbitt told media, I know 1:22:17.240 --> 1:22:19.760 it's going to be exciting. He's like, Cincinnati does so 1:22:19.840 --> 1:22:22.040 well with the parade and all of the fans support 1:22:22.080 --> 1:22:24.479 and the turnout. So good to see our all star 1:22:24.640 --> 1:22:27.360 getting some recognition for this one tomorrow and then after 1:22:27.439 --> 1:22:30.040 Brady or after and Robbert. We're gonna see Brady Singer 1:22:30.280 --> 1:22:34.200 on Saturday, Rhett Louder on Sunday, and then when the 1:22:34.240 --> 1:22:36.280 Pirates come to town, it's going to be Chase Burns 1:22:36.680 --> 1:22:38.080 then Brendan Williamson. 1:22:38.320 --> 1:22:38.479 OK. 1:22:38.960 --> 1:22:41.720 Not the rotation that we were expecting, but this is 1:22:41.760 --> 1:22:44.840 what we've gotten now. The second game, Singer is going 1:22:44.880 --> 1:22:47.120 to be ready. He pitched the other day with the 1:22:47.439 --> 1:22:50.000 with the blister thing. He goes, look, I get paid 1:22:50.040 --> 1:22:51.519 to pitch, so I'm going to go out there and 1:22:51.520 --> 1:22:52.000 get a done. 1:22:53.479 --> 1:22:55.080 It seem like a little bit of a shots. 1:22:55.560 --> 1:22:56.120 What are you doing? 1:22:56.120 --> 1:22:57.840 He's like, they'd pay me to do it. But here's 1:22:57.880 --> 1:22:58.120 the thing. 1:22:58.160 --> 1:23:00.840 If that blister opens up and more, he could be 1:23:00.920 --> 1:23:02.920 out for a lot longer of a period of time 1:23:03.240 --> 1:23:05.679 and everybody heals different, So I don't know the difference 1:23:05.680 --> 1:23:08.160 between singers blister and Lodolo's blister. 1:23:08.280 --> 1:23:09.920 But it's we got problems. 1:23:10.280 --> 1:23:13.360 Are the only teams problems? Yes, it seems that way 1:23:13.439 --> 1:23:15.599 I got blisters. We can't have nice things. 1:23:15.800 --> 1:23:17.920 It seems like pictures should be allowed to like could 1:23:17.920 --> 1:23:20.000 you put some super glue on that or speak right? 1:23:20.280 --> 1:23:22.240 You can't, And you can't put a bandage over it. 1:23:22.320 --> 1:23:24.280 You can't do anything. You just have to let it 1:23:24.320 --> 1:23:26.840 heal on its own. And I don't know if Dolo's 1:23:26.880 --> 1:23:28.360 skin just sucks. 1:23:28.080 --> 1:23:30.679 But can I can I introduce a new product here? 1:23:31.120 --> 1:23:31.479 Please? 1:23:31.560 --> 1:23:31.640 Do? 1:23:31.840 --> 1:23:32.400 Like a gorilla? 1:23:32.800 --> 1:23:34.719 Is no no no for all the Major League baseballs. 1:23:35.560 --> 1:23:39.479 The pitching glove. Okay, you got batting gloves, What about 1:23:39.520 --> 1:23:40.200 a pitching glove? 1:23:40.720 --> 1:23:41.120 I don't know. 1:23:41.160 --> 1:23:43.519 That could affect everything. Yeah, but if you can't have 1:23:43.560 --> 1:23:46.040 any sort of glove on the hair, I know. 1:23:46.000 --> 1:23:47.920 This, but you've got to change the rules. If this 1:23:48.000 --> 1:23:49.680 is a huge problem, should should there back? 1:23:49.880 --> 1:23:52.519 Is this a huge problem? Like across the whole UK, 1:23:53.200 --> 1:23:54.000 just for Cincinnati? 1:23:54.280 --> 1:23:56.200 I mean, look at this way quarterbacks in the NFL 1:23:56.200 --> 1:23:58.800 they hurt their hands wear glove. Look at Ben Roethlisberger's 1:23:58.800 --> 1:23:59.719 whole career war gloves. 1:24:00.080 --> 1:24:03.760 I get it, but that's different versus baseball. 1:24:03.920 --> 1:24:08.439 I know they're different sports. Thanks for explaining different balls. 1:24:08.479 --> 1:24:10.599 It's a whole different game. They're the same game. No, 1:24:10.640 --> 1:24:13.080 they're not, so you can do that. Why why can't 1:24:13.080 --> 1:24:15.040 you wear what Major leage Baseball should lok at this 1:24:15.040 --> 1:24:17.000 and go maybe with lawa glove that. 1:24:17.040 --> 1:24:20.160 I'm not a professional pitcher, but I just feel like 1:24:20.439 --> 1:24:22.360 that's really gonna mess things up. 1:24:22.360 --> 1:24:25.599 Slowly leave it alone. We don't need to add gloves. 1:24:25.880 --> 1:24:27.760 I want a professional pitcher to call me. One of 1:24:27.760 --> 1:24:29.280 the Reds called me right now. Let me know if 1:24:29.320 --> 1:24:29.880 that's doable. 1:24:29.960 --> 1:24:32.360 I want to make the hunter Green can't call you 1:24:32.360 --> 1:24:34.760 because he's got a messed up elbow. Andre Rabbit is 1:24:34.760 --> 1:24:37.240 getting ready to day and the other guys are too 1:24:37.280 --> 1:24:39.200 young to listen to these airwaves. 1:24:39.439 --> 1:24:42.599 Pitching gloves and somebody like you you can dazzle it. 1:24:44.000 --> 1:24:46.320 No, I'm anti pitcher glove. This is done. 1:24:48.080 --> 1:24:48.320 Well. 1:24:48.320 --> 1:24:50.800 Ellie's got his own thing going on. You can't mess 1:24:50.840 --> 1:24:51.040 with that. 1:24:51.120 --> 1:24:54.280 He's got the chains, he's got like the cool sliding glove. 1:24:54.920 --> 1:24:55.800 What else does he wear? 1:24:56.080 --> 1:24:58.520 He's got the protectors. 1:24:58.640 --> 1:25:01.000 Yeah, I've admit the Govment thing. 1:25:01.000 --> 1:25:04.840 It's it looks like it looks like I'm always. 1:25:04.520 --> 1:25:06.360 Hit the ball. That's all I'm asking. 1:25:06.600 --> 1:25:09.479 Let the ball stay healthy, get the elbows back in order, 1:25:09.520 --> 1:25:10.599 and the blisters out of the way. 1:25:10.600 --> 1:25:11.680 Like, let's just get it out of the way. 1:25:11.720 --> 1:25:13.519 Here looks like an ice agent. 1:25:16.320 --> 1:25:19.800 We gotta move on, because with bad news comes good news. 1:25:20.120 --> 1:25:22.760 We have clock outside of Great American Ballpark.

For at least I'm not exaggerating here. 1:27:56.920 --> 1:27:59.679 A good twenty five to thirty minutes. I'm not kidding. 1:28:00.000 --> 1:28:02.719 At that point, it's like, this is not the photographer's fault. 1:28:02.720 --> 1:28:03.799 This is just on show. 1:28:03.720 --> 1:28:05.400 You're taking a picture of the camera and it's like 1:28:05.439 --> 1:28:07.200 how many shots do you need to the entrance of 1:28:07.200 --> 1:28:10.559 the steakhouse? And not only that, it's like the only 1:28:10.600 --> 1:28:12.280 thing that's going to make it look better for you. 1:28:12.360 --> 1:28:13.800 And I'm not you know, believe me, I'm not the 1:28:13.800 --> 1:28:15.960 best looking personal world is to take the picture when 1:28:15.960 --> 1:28:18.240 the sun's now You're awful. 1:28:19.360 --> 1:28:22.280 Yeah, it's twenty five minutes for a photo. 1:28:22.360 --> 1:28:24.040 Maybe it's not the like, maybe. 1:28:23.840 --> 1:28:27.280 You shouldn't be taking them. 1:28:27.320 --> 1:28:29.280 Oh no, all right anyway. 1:28:29.000 --> 1:28:31.439 So this is a thank you to the fans of 1:28:31.680 --> 1:28:34.160 the Reds in the city of Cincinnati from Joey Vado 1:28:34.240 --> 1:28:37.080 for his twenty two years with the organization and on 1:28:37.120 --> 1:28:39.400 Instagram and again this is trending all over social media. 1:28:39.479 --> 1:28:42.720 Joey said, being the oldest professional team, I wanted this 1:28:42.760 --> 1:28:46.520 clock to add the charm and mistique of the Cincinnati 1:28:46.560 --> 1:28:50.400 Ruds experience. So just all around classy move from our 1:28:50.400 --> 1:28:53.040 guide Joeyvato. And just when I stopped missing him, I'm like, 1:28:53.400 --> 1:28:55.000 all of a sudden, I missed this guy. 1:28:54.880 --> 1:28:55.639 All over again. 1:28:56.760 --> 1:28:58.000 Just it's a great thing for him. 1:28:58.080 --> 1:29:00.479 It is a great thing, and hopefully we'll see a 1:29:00.479 --> 1:29:03.200 lot of him in the broadcast some sort of way 1:29:03.240 --> 1:29:04.840 with the Cincinnati Rids, you know what I mean. 1:29:05.200 --> 1:29:07.200 We know he's getting back into the key B side 1:29:07.240 --> 1:29:09.280 of things, my little broadcast a red game. 1:29:09.720 --> 1:29:11.800 I cannot wait to watch him. Yeah, it's gonna be great. 1:29:11.840 --> 1:29:14.360 And he also introduced us to his new dog, Morgan. 1:29:15.720 --> 1:29:16.800 She's very very cool. 1:29:18.200 --> 1:29:19.920 Girl. I'm a penis. 1:29:21.479 --> 1:29:22.599 You're so messed up. 1:29:24.080 --> 1:29:27.280 Speaking of things happening outside of the ballpark. I know 1:29:27.320 --> 1:29:31.760 you're excited about this. The Marty statue is back right. 1:29:32.200 --> 1:29:34.599 Let me tell you something, young man. That young man 1:29:34.720 --> 1:29:36.519 who ripped that down is a cloud. 1:29:37.560 --> 1:29:42.400 Absolutely was an eleven year old that ripped off the mic. 1:29:44.040 --> 1:29:48.400 Kids are dumb ash So Marty and his mic and 1:29:48.439 --> 1:29:51.840 the banana, the whole thing is back in front of 1:29:51.880 --> 1:29:54.400 the ballpark. I saw this morning and they did promise 1:29:54.439 --> 1:29:56.040 it would be ready in time for opening days. 1:29:57.280 --> 1:29:59.559 Clock or Marty's microphone, definitely the clock. 1:30:00.280 --> 1:30:02.760 But you got Pete Rose sliding, you got Marty sitting 1:30:02.760 --> 1:30:05.200 there with his mic, you got the clock. There's a 1:30:05.240 --> 1:30:06.839 lot going on outside the ballpark. 1:30:07.720 --> 1:30:10.639 Are we going to have a whole new rooting cutting 1:30:10.680 --> 1:30:13.559 ceremony for the newly the Marty two point zero so 1:30:13.640 --> 1:30:15.519 people can come and I would. 1:30:15.360 --> 1:30:19.400 Imagine time around something like that will be taking short. 1:30:19.240 --> 1:30:21.320 A celebration of Marty second time. 1:30:21.439 --> 1:30:22.960 And you know what, I did not get to see 1:30:22.960 --> 1:30:26.120 this thing when they first set it up, but I 1:30:26.160 --> 1:30:28.640 think they did kind of lower it too, because I 1:30:28.640 --> 1:30:30.760 did hear that it was like too high. 1:30:30.840 --> 1:30:34.400 It seems pretty low to me, like Marty level, you know. 1:30:34.600 --> 1:30:36.840 I think, yeah, they need to get it down because 1:30:37.080 --> 1:30:38.800 I mean, it's kind of dumb that Marty can't even 1:30:38.800 --> 1:30:39.719 see his own standard. 1:30:41.160 --> 1:30:42.960 The other thing is way too high. 1:30:43.439 --> 1:30:46.599 Speaking of Marty Brennan, our friends at Holy Grail announced 1:30:46.600 --> 1:30:50.000 this morning that a part of the opening day broadcast, 1:30:50.200 --> 1:30:53.360 Marty will be joining you guys, along with Bronson Arroyo 1:30:53.400 --> 1:30:56.640 and of course Jeff Brandt. Marty's coming down, He'll be 1:30:56.720 --> 1:30:59.479 there him. 1:30:59.560 --> 1:31:00.120 They did not. 1:31:00.200 --> 1:31:04.640 Specify that, They did not specify the times, but we 1:31:04.720 --> 1:31:06.559 know that our friend Marty likes to ride in the 1:31:06.560 --> 1:31:13.200 opening day parade. Take that, and of course Jeff Branley 1:31:13.240 --> 1:31:15.000 and Bronson are both going to be in the parade too. 1:31:15.040 --> 1:31:16.559 So I would imagine that this would be kind of 1:31:16.600 --> 1:31:19.920 like later into the broadcast, around at one o'clock hour 1:31:20.120 --> 1:31:21.439 when we're rolling in from. 1:31:21.240 --> 1:31:23.719 The bill and Seg will probably be out there. Okay, 1:31:23.880 --> 1:31:24.880 we'll handle that business. 1:31:24.880 --> 1:31:29.719 So I'm sure Seg is very excited.
