1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: As from a two and zero start to zero and 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: two with Jake Browning on her center after Joe's toe 3 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: became an issue and the Lions coming to town looking 4 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: to maul the Whoday tinding up to give us some 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,239 Speaker 1: time for ESPN Nation. We've had him on the show 6 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: a bunch in the past. He covers those who day Bengals, 7 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: Ben Baby, how are you? How is everything? And is 8 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: this ten and a half point line that I see 9 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: favoring the Lions an understatement of this situation? 10 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, always good to be on with you, Stirling, 11 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 2: And that is a massive line for people who don't know, 12 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 2: a double digit line in the NFL is very uncommon. 13 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 3: I think you have to go all the way back. 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 2: For the Bengals to be, you know, especially when you 15 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: look at where the Bengals are right now. And the 16 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 2: last time that was the Bengals with this big of 17 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 2: a home underdog was Week eighteen of the twenty twenty season. 18 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: Going into that game, the Bengals were without nough Burrow, 19 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 2: the coaching staff was about to get a big shake 20 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 2: up at the end of Zach Taylor's second year, and 21 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: they definitely played like it in that game. The Ravens 22 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: and at winning thirty eight to three. Before where that 23 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 2: you go back to the infamous Monday Night football game 24 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty where Ryan Finley somehow beat the Pittsburgh 25 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 2: Steelers and shift at the momentum for the franchise for 26 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: the next season. You know that that's the last time 27 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: the Bengals have been this big of an underdog. So 28 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: you know, I think it goes to show where they're 29 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: at and they're going to need a special performance to 30 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 2: it to somehow find a way to beat the Detroit Lions. 31 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:22,199 Speaker 4: This team. 32 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: By the way, Ben Baby from ESPN was sterling on 33 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: the Big One talking Bengals and Lions Sunday afternoon at 34 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: pay Corps and on seven hundred WLW. You know, it's 35 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: not just the offense that has struggled. This defense, which 36 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: we thought was so much better and look pretty solid 37 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: the first two weeks, seemed to the last couple of 38 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: weeks finds itself rated about the worst in the NFL. 39 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like that the boat is leaking 40 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: from a whole lot of holes. 41 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think the big thing with the defense, 42 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 2: and you talk folks inside the building, I think there's 43 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: an understanding that the offense has really put the defense 44 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: in a bad position. 45 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 5: Now, I think. 46 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: Everyone will also say the defense needs to create more turnovers. 47 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: We heard Al Golden talk about that this week. In 48 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,559 Speaker 2: his first year's defensive coordinator, it's been hard to gauge 49 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: kind of where things are at because that offense has 50 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: struggled so much. The defense been on the field for 51 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 2: so many snaps. They did a good job relatively in 52 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: the second half against Denver early and getting stops with 53 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: the offense just could not capitalize. That Minnesota game was 54 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: really spiraled from them. But you know, you go back 55 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 2: and look, I think they were fortunate in those first 56 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: two games to come away with wins because you know, 57 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: you had some drops, you had some ill timed, you know, 58 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: mistakes from the other team. You see the missfield goals 59 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: against Cleveland, and maybe if those things don't happen, you're 60 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: staring at zero to four instead of. 61 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 3: Two and two right now. 62 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: And so you know, maybe that is more of an 63 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: indicative of where this team's at. But you know, I 64 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: think that we'll get a better glimpse as to what 65 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: this defense will look like once the offense gets rolling, 66 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 2: if and whenever that actually does happen. 67 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 1: What do you think the biggest problem is? I understand 68 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: obviously that this offense has been built around Joe Burrow. 69 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: We saw Jake Browning step up in the past. That's 70 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: why he got the deal that he did to stay, 71 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: because he proved himself to be able to get it 72 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: done in in a tenuous situation, which is probably the 73 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: best way to describe what he's walked into here again 74 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: in this but he's got more interceptions than touchdowns and 75 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: adjusting this to what Jake does. How challenging is that? 76 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: Is that the biggest problem? Or are there just that 77 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: many holes in what we thought was going to be 78 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: this offense of power? 79 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think it's it's it's hard to 80 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 2: say what exactly is going wrong here, right, I think 81 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: it's unfair to say it's all on Jake Browning. You 82 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: know that they came in in twenty twenty three when 83 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: he when he came in place of Joe Burrow, they 84 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 2: looked serviceable. They were still able to find wins. And 85 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 2: you know, I think this year when you look at 86 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: the splits, you know, the inability to convert on third 87 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: downs has been a problem, and ability for Jake to 88 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 2: do well when pressured. That's been that's been a big 89 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: concern this season. I think that's where that area where 90 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: he has to get better. 91 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: But also, you know, you. 92 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: Have to find ways to find better wins, easier you know, 93 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: easier completions. Maybe for Browning, see if you can get 94 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: him some good one on one situations with Jamar Chase. 95 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: You know, now that the Bengals face two challenging fronts 96 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: in what Denver in Minnesota have, can they find a 97 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: more advantageous position against the Lions. 98 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 3: You know, we'll see. I think there's some confidence. 99 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 2: That they will be better this week, but you know, 100 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: I think they do need a good showing, you know, 101 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 2: regardless of whether they win or lose, to give them 102 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 2: a little bit of confidence moving forward, because right now, 103 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 2: I mean this is so one if you statistically, one 104 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 2: of the worst stretches in franchise history, what happened these 105 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks getting out you know, our lopside 106 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: that these results have been and so if you're able 107 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: to get some momentum, I think that's going to be huge. 108 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 2: And you know, it's as simple as maybe running the 109 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: ball and in finding easy completions. 110 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: Talking to Ben Baby for me ESPN Nation about Bengals 111 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: Lions Sunday Lions three and one. The Who Day at 112 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: five hundred and two and two started two and zero 113 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: zero and two with Jake Browning. It's not all on him. 114 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: I absolutely one hundred percent agree with you. Is you 115 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: look at what they're facing with the Lions, do you 116 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: see weaknesses or they are there opportunities for this Bengals 117 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: team to find a way not just to be competitive, 118 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: but where they have an opportunity really to send the 119 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: Lions back home to Detroit up seventy five as losers. 120 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 3: I think that if. 121 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 2: You're able to go out and jump on them early, 122 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 2: if you're able to you know, if the Bengals are 123 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: able to win the toss, it might be as easy 124 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: as that and almost like you're in cricket, you know, 125 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: when in the toss gives you a great chance of winning. 126 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 3: Here it's a little bit different. 127 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: But the Bengals can win the toss, go out and 128 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: score a touchdown early, you know, get the lines and 129 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 2: make some mistakes or force some mistakes and be able 130 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: to play with the lead. I think that's your best 131 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: chance against them, you know, Jamar Chase and t Higgins, 132 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: if they can find a way, find a way to 133 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: be involved against a line secondary that's been a little 134 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 2: susceptible at times. You know, I think if they can 135 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: find a way to maybe match up against carry On 136 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 2: Arnold a little bit, that would be a prime matchup 137 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 2: for them. When you look at the numbers, you know, 138 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: so I think it's gonna be that's your best bet, 139 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: you know. Otherwise, you know you're looking at a Lion's 140 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 2: offense that's really doesn't have any weaknesses. Jared Goff playing 141 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 2: really well. I'm on Ross Saint Brown, two time All Pro. 142 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 2: You look at the running backs they call him Sonic 143 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 2: and Knuckles and David Montgomery. 144 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 3: A local guy, and Jamior Gibbs. 145 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: You know that there's really not a lot of weaknesses 146 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 2: on that line's front, and really in the way that 147 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 2: they use Pine Soul, you know, is really unique they 148 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: view him. I remember talking to Mario Cristobal, who coached 149 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: him in college, and said, you know, Pena is a 150 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: playmaker in our mind. You know, we go out and 151 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: we will scheme out plays knowing that he's going to 152 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: be you know, he's going to be blocking either in 153 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 2: the run of the pass game and so you know, 154 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 2: he I think that's going to be an interesting magic 155 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 2: to watch as well. So you know that that Bengals defense, 156 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 2: they know what they're going to have their hands full 157 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 2: on Sunday afternoon. 158 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: Ben, when you you mentioned sul how irregular in outstanding 159 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: is penna when you describe what you just did about 160 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: what he's capable of doing, because you don't hear that 161 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: a lot about tackles like that. 162 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think that makes him unique is 163 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 2: that he's got great feet and is really able to 164 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,679 Speaker 2: do so much in both the run in the past 165 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 2: game you're able to pull him and just because he 166 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 2: moves so well. 167 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 6: Uh. 168 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: I think it's why that conversation back in twenty twenty 169 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: one about you know, should you draft Jamar Chase, should 170 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 2: you take in a sool? 171 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 3: You know, what is the best option to go there? 172 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: I think for this offense, obviously Jamaar and kind of 173 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: the reps that he had with Joe Burrow got going 174 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 2: back for the days at LSU, that was a no brainer. 175 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: You see the growth that Jamar Chase has had this year, 176 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: and that's been big. But also I mean you go 177 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: look at it. You know, the Bengals that paid, you know, 178 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: forty million dollars, And this is something that is interesting 179 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 2: to think about. Well, the Bengals have paid forty one 180 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: million dollars for a receiver. They paid a lot of 181 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 2: money for Tea Higgins at well three and one fifteen 182 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: four and one fifteen uh for him, and they just 183 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 2: haven't been able to get them involved. And when you 184 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: spend that kind of money, you ideally want those receivers 185 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: to be to be a major impact. And I don't 186 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: think it's a fault of Jamar and te you know, 187 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,239 Speaker 2: when you is it too dependent? 188 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 3: Sometimes? 189 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,119 Speaker 2: I think you know, it's going to be a question 190 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 2: on this wide receiver market moving forward. You know, do 191 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: teams want to continue to give that kind of money 192 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: to receivers knowing how dependent they are on targets and 193 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: other parts of the offense. But you know that that's 194 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: kind of that's a that's a side discussion. But yeah, 195 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: so well, definitely very good. It does a lot of 196 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 2: great things for that line's offensive line. 197 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: ESPN Nations that Ben Baby was stirling on seven hundred 198 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: WLW talking Bengals and Lions. What have I not asked? 199 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: I always liked to ask because You're in and around 200 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: this organization on the ground all the time, and I 201 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: know enough to know I don't know enough, but there 202 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: are elements of this that are sort of under the 203 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: radar that really make a huge difference other than the obvious. 204 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think the big question is going 205 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 2: to be where does this team go long term? You know, 206 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: can they find a way to kind of rally a 207 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: little bit? I think these next couple of weeks are 208 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: going to be tough. You've got Detroit coming home at 209 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: home and then green Bay a really good team. We're 210 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: going to be a contender to represent the NFC of 211 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl this year. 212 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 3: You know. 213 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: So if you go and lose those games and you 214 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: go you two and four after going to and Oher, 215 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: you know, where does this thing go? I think if 216 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 2: you're the Bengals, you want to have some kind of 217 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 2: resolve because skeets soften up in the middle of the 218 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: year and you ideally will have a chance to reel 219 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 2: off some wins get back to five hundred if they 220 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: lose these next couple of games, Can Jack Taylor keep 221 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: this team together? Can they continue to believe that they 222 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 2: can be competitive and give hope that maybe if Joe 223 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: Burrow gets healthy at the end of the year, they 224 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: get sneak in the playoffs in salvage some of this season. 225 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 2: I think that's all stuff that you want to watch. 226 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: And then, you know, I think that's going to be 227 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: fascinating because when you lose the way you have the 228 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. 229 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 3: You wonder what kind of toll that takes on a 230 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 3: locker room. 231 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: So far, haven't seen any any big issues, but I think, 232 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: you know, those things always can develop the more season 233 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 2: starts to unravel. 234 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: Now in baseball they call it a grind. The NFL is, 235 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: you know, even worse when it comes to that going 236 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: through it. Not as long, but certainly brutal physically. And 237 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: you just talked about the toll of facing these tougher 238 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: teams early, just struggling to get through that. And that's 239 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: what Jake Browning in that offense a couple of years ago, 240 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: was somehow able to do, is find their way to 241 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: get to the open space where they could get some 242 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: wins behind them, and then if Joe is able to 243 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: come back with the toe being in a better place 244 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: to maybe make a run down the way. 245 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 4: But I get that's a lot of ifs. 246 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, and so you know, first things first, you know, 247 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 2: seeing if they can just even look remotely competitive. The 248 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 2: betters do not think that this is going to be 249 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 2: a close game. At ten and a half, might as 250 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 2: well be one hundred in the NFL. And so, you know, 251 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 2: we'll see what kind of resolved the Bengals continue to 252 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: have as the season, you know, rolls on. 253 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: I'm still trying to figure out how they generally are 254 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: so good at calling these lines overall, because it can 255 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: be frustrating. Is it really possibly that big of a margin, 256 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, on the outset, but they weekend week out, 257 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: it seems like they're pretty close to being on it. 258 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: How is that possible? 259 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 2: Well, when you've got a lot of money at stake, 260 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 2: I think you generally try to be good at this. 261 00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: And I think over the years they've. 262 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: Got it down sien a point off here, a point 263 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 2: off there, even a half a point. You've got a 264 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 2: lot of money writing on it, So I think, you know, ultimately, 265 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 2: I think a general rule of thumb is that when 266 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 2: people are paid to do something for a living, they 267 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 2: generally tend to be pretty good at it. 268 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: Fair enough, and you are good at what you do, 269 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: Ben Baby ESPN Nation seem all over ESPN here in 270 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: ESPN fifteen thirty and kind enough to give us some 271 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: time here on a Friday night, the weekend with Sterling. 272 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 4: Thank you, my man. 273 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: I hope you enjoyed the rest of it, and hopefully Sunday, 274 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: maybe the Bengals will surprise everybody. 275 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, sounds good. Thanks Sterling, take. 276 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: Care of yourself more Sterling coming back.

But 292 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: we'll get some details on it because it doesn't matter. 293 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: Also movie stuff, Kevin Carr Fat Guys at the movies, 294 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: he also confining silver Gecko on Substack, will join us 295 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: talk about the new deal e Leonardo DiCaprio movie, some 296 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: other stuff going on, and a lot of other ground 297 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: to cover as well. We're short on time here before 298 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: the news, but I want to mention this because it's 299 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: I had the I don't know if i'd say it's 300 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: the weirdest conversation. I have a lot of weird conversations, 301 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: I believe it or not. But shopping yesterday, I grab 302 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: some Halloween candy. Usually I have leftovers, which I consume 303 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: throughout the year because we don't get a lot of kids, 304 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: which is fine, So I buy candy that I like 305 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: that I want, so I'm not stuck with crap that 306 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: I don't like and I don't want, which maybe is 307 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: a bad choice because I'm the one eating most of it. However, 308 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking to a buddy of mine and he tells 309 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: me that he's put the kaibash on the trick or 310 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 1: treating at their house. Not for his kids, which are 311 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: a little bit older now like in high school, there's 312 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: are probably out the stealing bags. 313 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 4: No, I'm just kidding. 314 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: His kids are upstanding of fine citizens, probably, But he 315 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: tells me that it's too expensive, that he's seen the 316 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: price of candy go up and he's done with it 317 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: because of the chocolate prices and stuff along those lines. 318 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: So a little later we'll get into that too. 319 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 4: I don't know. 320 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: We hear mixed signals about the economy, how it's doing 321 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: and not. 322 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 4: What do they say? 323 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: It's a recession if it's your neighbor that's in trouble 324 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: having problems, it's depression. If it's you that are having 325 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: personal problems when it comes to money, stuff and jobs 326 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: and whatnot. But when people are cutting back on the 327 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: idea a candy for the kids at Halloween, I start 328 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: to scratch my head and go, is you know, my 329 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:15,359 Speaker 1: neighbor just getting old and crodgety or whatever, or they legitimately, 330 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, maybe touched upon and scratched upon a real 331 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: itch that's out there, which is people sort of not 332 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: wanting to cough up the cash because maybe these are 333 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: harder times and some would think or hope or want 334 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: in the midst of everything going on, including the government 335 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: shutdown that we're in the midst of right now. 336 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 4: So we'll touch on that. 337 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: I'm just wondering because I mean, I got my receis, 338 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: I got some TUTSI rolls, and I got some blowpops. 339 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: Those are all things that I like that I understand 340 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: that I can appreciate. I don't do the smarties, I 341 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: don't do all the weird wax candies. I spend good 342 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: money on the candy because I know what I like, 343 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: and I'm tired over the years of accumulating candy when 344 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: the kids haven't shown up, even going back to COVID 345 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: times when I get the got the big PVC pipe 346 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: tube that I was able to toss some candy through 347 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: that so I would not put the kids in danger 348 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: of them and me because they're they're germ monsters generally, 349 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: and very few kids came then. And then I just 350 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: had extra PVC pipe, which I mean, you can never 351 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: have too much of. That just didn't think in case 352 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: things go weird or whatever else. So we'll touch on 353 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: that a bit later. I just don't know how bad 354 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: does it have to be for someone to be in 355 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: a situation when you're like, I'm not buying candy. 356 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 4: For the kids. 357 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: My guess is they'll be talking more hooligans and vandalism 358 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: and windows, soapd and toilet papering of trees and houses 359 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: as a result of that. If kids still do that 360 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: type of thing today's world, kids might end up getting 361 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: shot they start tpeeing and soaping windows. But when I 362 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: was coming up, it was a very common circumstance, not 363 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: even just Halloween time, just because kids were bored and 364 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: you know, out after high school football, which we'll give 365 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: you some scores by the way, because it is football 366 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: Friday night, straight away, the latest on the shutdown, what 367 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: could be a broker peace deal or at least the 368 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: very beginning of talk of maybe some success in that 369 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: route with Jack Crumbley in the news and the other side, 370 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: former head of political science at Wright State, doctor donnah 371 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: Schlaheck joins me as well, it's a Friday night, Stirling, 372 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: glad you're along. It's a beautiful night, warmer than normal, 373 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: not feeling like football weather, not feeling like fall, but 374 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: it is just the same. On the home of your reds, 375 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: and of course the whoday they play here seven hundred 376 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: WLW shaken. 377 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 4: I don't know. 378 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: After this period of time there is talk in Israeli 379 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: and Hamas peace steel, or at least rumblings of Hamas 380 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: accepting what terms were given them. 381 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 4: Is a part of that. 382 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: Settlement with Israel with the United States helped us some 383 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: insight with that, as well as a government shutdown. If 384 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: you hadn't noticed the government shut down, A lot of 385 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: people are a region right Air Force base up in 386 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: Dayton Fairborne, right near Wright State, by the way, the 387 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: largest employer in the region, one of the biggest in 388 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: Ohio for that matter, certainly a lot of people dealing 389 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: with that and the ramifications in the days ahead. Former 390 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: had a political science at Wright State, now professor Meredith. 391 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 1: She is a Cincinnati kid, always lending great perspective and 392 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,239 Speaker 1: insight to what's going on in the world and what 393 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: matters to us here in the Tri State. Is doctor 394 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: Dona Schlank. Welcome back to the Big one. Seven hundred WLW. 395 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 7: How's it going, hi, Sterling. It has been quite a day, 396 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 7: hasn't it. 397 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: It certainly has. Let's start with Israel Hamas in that circumstance, 398 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: because initially I get all these push messages to my 399 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: random device is saying, hey, there's a deal that's been broken, 400 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: but it's not actually fully done. And we've talked for 401 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: however long this has been since October seventh, twenty three, 402 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: in the horrible events that took place there with the 403 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: kidnapping and the murders of all those people in the 404 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: version into Israel, and what's gone on subsequent to that, 405 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: but for so many years before that, do you think 406 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: that this is a legitimate, sustainable circumstance that we're talking 407 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 1: about with peace as these deals in details of this 408 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: are coming out. 409 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 7: Guardedly, guardedly hopeful, but it is a very important step. 410 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 7: It also coincides with the expected soon to be Peace 411 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 7: Prize nominations, but we'll we'll see what happens. 412 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 8: In Sweden. 413 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 7: The signal from Hamas was pretty plain on yes, all 414 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 7: forty eight of the last of the hostages, about twenty 415 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 7: of whom are still living with that big butt, right, 416 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 7: that's the condition and literally specified the need to meet 417 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 7: certain conditions on the ground unspecified, but one might think 418 00:18:55,080 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 7: it may take them some time, certainly before the Sunday 419 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 7: deadline that President Trump had previously said, but it may 420 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 7: take some time for them to bring those hostages and 421 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 7: the remains of the hostages who've died in captivity. Two 422 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 7: years of this sterling two years. Israeli public opinion is 423 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 7: all over the place too. But it would appear that 424 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 7: they have said yes to the hostages, which is their 425 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 7: massive point of leverage, right yes to the hostages release, 426 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:37,360 Speaker 7: which will bring many Palestinians released in many detainees, probably 427 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 7: over one thousand to be released as well. Those take 428 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 7: a little bit of time to coordinate. But what I 429 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 7: find really interesting in this package that President Trump has 430 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 7: put forward, and Hamas says they're accepting the first stage 431 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 7: of it. But you know who, Tony Blair is the 432 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 7: Prime minister, former Prime Minister's one who helped negotiate the 433 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 7: end of terrorism and violence in Northern Ireland and put 434 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 7: together an amnesty package. You lay down your arms, you 435 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 7: sign an oath to renounce violence. You can stay or 436 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 7: you can peaceably leave. So they've actually announced that component 437 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 7: of this agreement as well. This is more, much more 438 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 7: than we have seen in the past, and President Trump 439 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 7: has weighed in with a very very unequivocal signal to 440 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 7: Israel the bombing in Gaza has to stop immediately, like now. 441 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 7: So that's a very very strong signal from President Trump. 442 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 7: The Arab States are lining up to make arrangements for 443 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 7: probably a primarily Muslim or Arab force that will enter 444 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 7: the area to begin the disarmament process as well. Peace 445 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 7: are beginning to move at this point in time, and 446 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 7: it may look really slow, but it strikes me that 447 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 7: they're moving very quickly. That two year anniversary I think 448 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 7: was something that President Trump did not want to see 449 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 7: happen without some movement. So I am very impressed with 450 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 7: what Tony Blair has brought to the table. You know, 451 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 7: so many more complicated plans and negotiations to follow, but 452 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 7: this scenario changes dramatically. If those hostages are released, then 453 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 7: I'm pretty confident that the Israeli forces will begin to 454 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 7: pull back. It won't happen, you know, fast enough to 455 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 7: meet hum often the Palestinian people. I do believe that 456 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 7: the Palestinian population in Gaza overwhelmingly wants to see this 457 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 7: cease fire and an end to the conflict. We have 458 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 7: no way of knowing right what public opinion there is, 459 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 7: but sterling more happening in a positive direction, with all 460 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 7: the caveats that we have to put on this negotiation. 461 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 7: It was a yes, It was a yes. 462 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 8: But this is a. 463 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 7: Really complicated not too untie, and forty eight families in 464 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 7: Israel now probably have more hope than they have had 465 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 7: in the past two years. In total, American leadership here 466 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 7: to bring this to the point where it can happen 467 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 7: if the principles are willing, you know, to take some 468 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 7: risks on both sides. This despite the difficulties of the 469 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 7: shutdown and the government here, this is one of the 470 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 7: you know, the most hopeful developments. It started on Monday 471 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 7: there stood President Trump alongside Benjamin not in Yejo saying 472 00:22:55,119 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 7: he accepts these conditions and having gone, you know, much 473 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 7: further in the end the war process than many of 474 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 7: many of us thought possible. So this is a Trump plan. 475 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 7: It's incredibly complicated. It has not been fleshed out nearly 476 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 7: in the detail that it will require. I'm impressed that 477 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 7: they brought somebody on board with hands on experience. How 478 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 7: do you stop the shooting, you know, disarm the combatants, 479 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 7: and then lay the groundwork for a future state where 480 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 7: people live in peace. Tony Blair actually has that experience. 481 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 7: I know he's been criticized in the media lately because 482 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 7: of his roles supporting the US in the Iraq War, 483 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 7: But I think the valuable lesson is what they did 484 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 7: in Northern Ireland. That was nineteen ninety eight when those 485 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 7: piece accords were announced. I had the good luck of 486 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 7: being in New York at the time and literally sitting 487 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 7: in the company of the Consul General for Northern Ireland 488 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 7: and the President of Shin Fame who'd been working on 489 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 7: it for years. 490 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: Right now, the troubles on for an extremely long period 491 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: of time. I know there's been some rumblings there of 492 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: some of that coming back, but nothing like the horrible 493 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: circumstance that was in Northern Ireland. 494 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 4: UH for so long. 495 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 7: Nothing there there. Northern Irish Parliament is open, they've been 496 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 7: holding elections. The shootings, the bombings in the ira and 497 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 7: the Protestant paramilitaries put their arms beyond access. Amnesties were 498 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 7: issued and do you know what party will head the 499 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 7: Catholic community. It will be Shin Fame, which used to 500 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 7: be called the political arm of the ira UH. And 501 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 7: just it tells us that Humus is not going away forever. 502 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 7: They haven't promised that, but sterling more light, more hope 503 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 7: than we have seen in the in this situation. Uh, 504 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 7: the President has put a pretty impressive package together, lined 505 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 7: up every single important Arab and Muslim state to be 506 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 7: part of trying to bring it to reality. 507 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 4: That's a lot. 508 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 7: Now, it's good, It's a whole lot. And now it's 509 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 7: going to require a really deep breath and some real 510 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 7: courage on the part of both the Israelis and the 511 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 7: Palestinians to see if they can change their destiny. It 512 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 7: looks like they may have that opportunity. 513 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: Talking to the former head of political science at Wright 514 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: State University, doctor Donna Schlek, now Professor Amerita from Cincinnati, here, 515 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: this Israeli Hamas issue and in that Middle Eastern turmoil circumstance, 516 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: I mean it has gone on for much longer, preceding 517 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: the hostage taking and the killings and the murders and 518 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,719 Speaker 1: the incursion into Israel that happened on the seventh of October. 519 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 1: So the question is, I guess you know, because initial 520 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: it was Amas has to go. And you mentioned something 521 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 1: very interesting in that no one really knows the people 522 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: on the ground and how they feel about it. But 523 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: they've been effectively, in so many cases displaced, killed, and 524 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: you name it, for all this period of time, effectively 525 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: bombed back into the Stone Ages. I can't imagine anyone 526 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: living through that, amongst the rubble of all of that, 527 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: not wanting to find any way possible to get to 528 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: some place a piece in whatever normalcy can be, because it's 529 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: going to take decades for that to be built back up, 530 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: to be a liveable place of some kind. 531 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 7: In any way, Yeah, it is going to be one 532 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 7: big infrastructure project. There are going to be jobs, jobs, 533 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 7: jobs for Palestinians to rebuild their country. The Arab States 534 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 7: want peace in the region. President Trump's Abraham Accords may 535 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 7: be extended much more broadly. The remedy in Northern Ireland 536 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 7: was get them to stop shooting, begin the disarmament, and 537 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 7: then begin an economic development program, because if you can 538 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 7: offer young people some hope, perhaps a job, a family, 539 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 7: et cetera, they will not be inclined to take the 540 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 7: twenty dollars a month stipe then that the IRA may 541 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 7: have been offering, or whatever Humus is paying their supporters. 542 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 7: Now I wonder we've got five or ten thousand humaff fighters. 543 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 7: This disarmament process will be fascinating to watch. It's going 544 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 7: to be labor intensive. President Trump has promised American support 545 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 7: in the role, but hands on on the ground. This 546 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:53,239 Speaker 7: needs to be perhaps the biggest collaborative, constructive project that 547 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 7: the leading Arab states in the region have ever engaged in. 548 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 7: It is, you know, talk about turning a major corner, 549 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 7: addressing a continuing grievance and source of violence in their neighborhood. 550 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 7: And for israelis the end of the war, the return 551 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 7: of the hostages, but perhaps a different way of living 552 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 7: in the future as well. A lot of risks, a 553 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 7: lot of distrust, massive amounts of distrust on both sides. 554 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 7: And yet the desire and the plan that the President 555 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 7: and his team will be fleshing out and Arab states, 556 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 7: the wealthy oil states are going to be asked to 557 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 7: underwrite a lot of this. 558 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: What does that mean to cost of fuel by the way, 559 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: because I mean, you know, will they increase their cost 560 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: or price to us? And I mean that's a lot 561 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: of economy conversation there. But even though we produce and 562 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: have more than basically anyone on the planet at this point, 563 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: we still get petroleum products from that part of the 564 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: world as well. If they're trying to use that money 565 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: or use those bits of fuel and so forth in 566 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: that process to generate the wealth necessary to build back 567 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: from what is effectively the stone age in this process, 568 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: who's going to pay for that in the end? I mean, 569 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: it's whoever purchases the fuel source. 570 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 7: Yes, I think Americans are always interested in that question 571 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,719 Speaker 7: about the price of petroleum. But the last time the 572 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 7: oil producing states in the region met, they decided to slightly, 573 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 7: you know, hold constant or slightly increase their production, trying 574 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 7: to put more pressure on the Russians as well, who 575 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 7: are very cash desperate in selling their petroleum. So the wealthy, 576 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 7: wealthy Arab states have those massive funds that they can 577 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 7: fall back on if the price of oil has to 578 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 7: come down. Their economies are not like the Russians are 579 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 7: today dependent upon you know, the income on it almost 580 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 7: on a daily basis, from the price of oil. To 581 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 7: righte the world's leading producer is the United States, which 582 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 7: is on a path under President Trump's leadership to continue 583 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 7: to increase production. So when the market is soft and 584 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 7: full of oil, the price tends to come down. And 585 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 7: when the area is not ripe for another major violent upheaval. Again, 586 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 7: the price can remain firm if going to the you know, 587 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 7: the lower side as well. That is one price that 588 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 7: they are able to pay. But the projects to rebuild 589 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 7: Gaza in ten years, we may not be able to 590 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 7: recognize the region it. I mean, it has the human capital, 591 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 7: it has the potential. The money is going to come in. 592 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 7: If the violence stops, so many things become possible. And 593 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 7: then this is the Trump plan, that is, that's what 594 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 7: it's going to be known as. If it fails, if 595 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 7: it succeeds, and there's so many ways it can go 596 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 7: off the rail. But we haven't seen process progress like 597 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 7: this for two years now. Although we've been hopeful this 598 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 7: is it's a substance's turn, and Hamas has actually said, yes, 599 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 7: the hostages will be coming out, maybe within a week. 600 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 7: I think it will be fairly soon. Once this thing begins, 601 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 7: I know the Americans will want to keep the process going, 602 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 7: accelerate it, get more planning in place for what comes 603 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 7: after the IDF withdrawal, for example. So there's going to 604 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 7: be a lot of development opportunities, lots of contracts, lots 605 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 7: of ways to attract young Palestinians into rebuilding their country 606 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 7: rather than having to go out and die for it. 607 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: Doctor Donish likes the former head of political science at 608 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: Wright State and now Professor Mariager. Talking about this Israeli 609 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: hamas Trump broker peace deal is planned, it seems to 610 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 1: be moving a little bit closer to fruition. You mentioned 611 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: something interesting about the rebuilding. You mentioned about the cost 612 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: sharing with that of course for those other countries in 613 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: the region to go along with it, which reminds me 614 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: then after say World War Two, the Marshall Plan and 615 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: everything that went into helping to build back Germany and 616 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: so forth in a little different circumstance. As devastated as 617 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: it was societally speaking, I mean, there is nothing much 618 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: left at all in Gaza. 619 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 4: I mean it is. 620 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: It looks like a moonscape, almost in an uninhabitable circumstance. 621 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: So every element of society, it appears, is going to 622 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: have to somehow be brought back. And something leading from 623 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: the initial conversation is this conflict escalated as it is 624 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: on October seventh, October eighth of twenty twenty three, is 625 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: that with people suffering through what it has become, how 626 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: do you keep those that have survived it, who have 627 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: had to endure it multiple generations, to not have that bitterness, 628 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: that resentment, that a bloodlust and hunger for retaliation for 629 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: what has come to be their reality. There be it 630 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: towards Omas, towards Israel, towards the West, or otherwise. 631 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 7: And that is why the prospective hope of rebuilding, rebuilding 632 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 7: something better for the children that have had to live 633 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 7: through the last two years, the families, the people who 634 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 7: have fled, et cetera. When that element of hope for 635 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 7: something better, and that's what has been put on the table. 636 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 7: Willhammad survived this, Will they reappear later under a new 637 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 7: name and as a political party, could very well happen, 638 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 7: but something's been put on the table. All the Arab 639 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 7: states who had previously supported, you know, the arms struggle 640 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 7: for a free and an independent Palestine, these are the 641 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 7: people who will be writing the checks and you know, 642 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 7: letting the contracts for all of the construction that will 643 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 7: have to happen. It will be a massive project. There 644 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 7: will be full employment and that's what will squeeze Humas 645 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 7: and their appeal out.

But in 653 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 7: Northern Ireland they've turned that corner. They're looking forward. You know, 654 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 7: how do you fit yourself between the EU and Brexit 655 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 7: and you know all of the complicated questions, but they're 656 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 7: economic questions now.

How are you how everything Everything's. 682 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 5: Going pretty well. How are you doing today? 683 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 4: I have no complaints. 684 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: It was like eighty degrees when I was coming into 685 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: this place tonight on a Friday, on the edge of October. 686 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: I know I'll be complaining about darkness and cold and 687 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,919 Speaker 1: freezing temperatures in snow soon enough. So I'm soaking all 688 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: this up as best I can. And this almost seems 689 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: like it's almost comfortable drive in weather too, when we're 690 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: talking about movies and so forth. 691 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 4: Even though we are here on a Friday. Football kind 692 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 4: of night. 693 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, and here's why. You know. It's eighty three 694 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 5: you said eighty three degrees, but it's low humidity. That's 695 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 5: the key. And you can sit out and you can 696 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 5: have a nice breeze come by, and it feels great. 697 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 5: What's weird is then when the temperature starts dropping at night, 698 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 5: it gets more and more humid because the air can 699 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 5: hold less moisture, and then it gets to a point 700 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 5: where you feel like it's condensing on you. So that 701 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 5: can get a little uncomfortable. But no, it was beautiful. 702 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 5: I was out in the park today and I mean 703 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 5: just scored a little the mosquitoes. But you know, hey, 704 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 5: you take what to take, what you get. 705 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: A little malaria, it's no big deal. Don't worry about it. 706 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: Just go to the bathroom a lot. 707 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 4: That's okay. 708 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 5: Pleasant things in life. You just got to deal with 709 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 5: some bloodsucker sometimes. 710 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 4: And that's the truth on more ways than one. 711 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: All Right, So I know that a couple of weeks 712 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,840 Speaker 1: ago we talked about one battle after another, which is 713 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: a new DiCaprio, and everybody under the sun's in that. 714 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,399 Speaker 1: But that's that's not actually out yet, right, that's still 715 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 1: future speak. 716 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 5: Correct, No, no, no, that came out last week. That 717 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 5: wasn't last Talk last week, but yeah, it came out 718 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 5: last week and it well, here's the thing. Did it 719 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 5: do okay or did it not? Because they spent like 720 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 5: one hundred and thirty million dollars on this film, which 721 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 5: I don't know where that money went because it was 722 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 5: not on the screen. I mean they well probably went 723 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 5: to all the seventy millimeters work that they did with it, 724 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 5: because it is being pushed as a big seventy milimeter release. 725 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 5: But it's but it's still a good movie. It made 726 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 5: like twenty some million last weekend, which is pretty low 727 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 5: for the size of the budget. But it's going to 728 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 5: carry through award season. It's got all these reviews, and 729 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 5: I thought it was an interesting movie, but it's not 730 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 5: a typical movie. 731 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: But you'll sound like really excited, like like not long ago, 732 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: like it was the Superman movie. You you were literally 733 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: bursting through my headphones in the speakers as we drove 734 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: around about your excitement about it this one. You're saying, Oh, 735 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: it's big, and you don't know where they spent all 736 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: the money. Uh whatever? Is this not as good as 737 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: you would hope or is it hype too much. 738 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 5: Now here's the thing that that's the thing. It's it's 739 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 5: a hype thing because whenever Paul Thomas Anderson or pt 740 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,919 Speaker 5: Anderson comes out with the movie, there is this collective, 741 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 5: almost sensual groan from the critical side of the world, 742 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 5: and they're just like, it's the greatest movie ever, and 743 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 5: I need to see it, get it in my eyeball. 744 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 5: And that's like kind of the and you get that 745 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 5: with a Christopher Roland movie. Uh, you get that with uh, 746 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:01,359 Speaker 5: you know, certain movies like this from certain directors. And 747 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 5: I'm like, I liked it. It's a good movie. I 748 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 5: gave it four out of five stars. But I am 749 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 5: kind of like guy pumped the brakes a little bit. 750 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 5: It's not the greatest movie of the year, let alone 751 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 5: of all time. But it's entertaining and it's interesting. But 752 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 5: it's it's it's not me when I say it's it's 753 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 5: a typical. It's not a normal movie. That's not a 754 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 5: knock on it. It's more a revel you know, a 755 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 5: realization that it's doesn't follow your normal storyline. You know, 756 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 5: if you were to say, hey, it's this movie about 757 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 5: these people who are sort of like in this uh 758 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 5: sort of pseudo terrorist organization, this sort of this Liberation 759 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:41,840 Speaker 5: Front group. 760 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 3: Uh. 761 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 5: And it's him, Uh, DiCaprio much later in life, just 762 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 5: kind of trying to lead the normal life and the 763 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 5: cage's pulled back into this by somebody who's hunting him. 764 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 5: You think it's gonna be like a Steven Sagall action movie, 765 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 5: and it ain't that.

He targets them and he kind of gets 819 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 5: swept up into it and he's trying to go on 820 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 5: the run save his daughter from sort of this unhinged 821 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 5: military guy. It played by Sean Pett and Sean Penn's 822 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 5: fantastic in it actually because he plays a completely bonker's 823 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 5: character but makes it feel very realistic. 824 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: Okay, is there anything to say else about that? 825 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,959 Speaker 4: Because I'm curious about something else? 826 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 5: There's more. Like I said, I think my thing is 827 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 5: you want to go in with tempered expect and realize 828 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 5: it's not traditional because that doesn't follow that normal like 829 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 5: three acts structure that were sort of even if you 830 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 5: don't know what the three act structures, you go and 831 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 5: watch movies and it kind of flows that way. But 832 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 5: it's interesting. I was never bored in it, you know it. 833 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 5: I was. I never found myself checking my watch even 834 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 5: though it runs over two hours and it's it's it 835 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 5: keeps you guessing because it is one of those movies 836 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 5: that you're like, well, gosh, you know, anything can happen. 837 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:26,720 Speaker 4: Okay. 838 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,839 Speaker 5: You know, you watch Superman. You talked about Superman. You're like, corn, 839 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna kill Superman, so you know that's gonna 840 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 5: end okay for him. But this one you have no idea. 841 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 5: So that's what I would say. So it's it's a 842 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,919 Speaker 5: non traditional movie, but it's worth checking out. 843 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 4: Okay, very good. 844 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: Now, Good Boy is a dog movie, more or less correct, 845 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 1: and I've saw a trailer about it. I want to 846 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: see this one too, but I don't know if I should. 847 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: That's why we have you on, Kevin Carr. Is it 848 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 1: the movies? I just explain the hero nature I guess 849 00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:59,760 Speaker 1: of the dog, which they are in most of our lives. 850 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, Good Boy is it's a horror movie. It's told 851 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 5: from the dog's point of view. That's sort of the 852 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 5: angle of it. And I mean not just that he's 853 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,840 Speaker 5: the main character, but you know, shot with low angles 854 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 5: the human characters, their faces are often obscured, and there's dialogue, 855 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 5: but it just kind of goes on in the background. 856 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 5: It it's the presence of this dog with his owner 857 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 5: who's got some health problems. He's a younger man but 858 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 5: has some health problems, and he moves into it's more 859 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,320 Speaker 5: than a cabin, it's a house, but it's in the 860 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 5: middle of the woods that his grandfather used to own, 861 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 5: and there's something in there. There's some entity and the 862 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 5: dog is trying to figure out what it is, and 863 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,439 Speaker 5: it's sniffing around and looking around, and there's some sort 864 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 5: of malevolent presence there. And so yeah, it's a haunted 865 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 5: house movie told from a dog's point of view, which 866 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 5: makes it unique because otherwise it would have just been 867 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 5: kind of a run of the mill entity movie kind 868 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 5: of thing. But the dog's played by the dog's real 869 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,879 Speaker 5: names in and the character is named Indie, named after 870 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 5: Indiana Jones. It's been a great dog. I mean, I'm like, 871 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,359 Speaker 5: let's give the dog the Academy Award at this point. 872 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 1: Has that ever happened? No, I just I could have 873 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 1: gotten like an Emmy, right, not. 874 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 5: Like air Bud, the Oscars or. 875 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 4: If you ever had that happen. I mean, you've had dogs. 876 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 1: I mean I've been to the house car I know, 877 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: and you've had a dog that like has seemingly had 878 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: something that it's had interest in that, It's been a 879 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: disturbed by in the backyard, in the house, whatever it is. 880 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: It's heard something, smelled something and acted irregular, and then 881 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 1: you kind of wonder, is there something there? Is it 882 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: something beyond this realm? I mean, so that sort of 883 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: plays into that thing that a lot of us, anybody 884 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,719 Speaker 1: who's had a pet has had something like that kind 885 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 1: of happened. 886 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 4: Just maybe not really a horror show. 887 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,279 Speaker 5: Well, definitely with a dog, cats are less. Cats are 888 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 5: like in general okay kind of the way the cat works. 889 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 5: But no, nothing is creepier than when you have a 890 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,240 Speaker 5: dog and you're sitting around and all of a sudden 891 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 5: the dog just purse up and it's like and you 892 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 5: didn't hear. 893 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 4: Anything, because they hear and smell at all. 894 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you just don't know. Now, Like I live 895 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 5: in the suburbs, so there's there's always like cars going 896 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 5: by and you know that kind of thing. So there's 897 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 5: always external noises. But I've been I've been in the 898 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 5: you know, like in relatives, you know when they live 899 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 5: out in the woods, you know, in the hills of 900 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 5: West Virginia. Yeah, you don't want to hear the dogs 901 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 5: get like upset then, because I mean that could be 902 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 5: that's not even a ghost thing. I mean, if you're 903 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 5: like in the West Virginia, it could be there could 904 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 5: be coyotes there. Could you don't know what's outside at 905 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 5: night in the middle of the woods. 906 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 1: And I hear them all the time around the house 907 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: is sterling, and my dog will will peak up, and 908 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: then he's kind of like, all right, we can go 909 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 1: in the house now, because I think he he that's 910 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: about the only thing he's scared of. Everything else. He's 911 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 1: got a big mouth. He'll hide behind me. But when 912 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: he hears the coyotes yipping and yapping and whatever they 913 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: do late at night, he's like, all right, I'm good. 914 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you don't know. The coyotes are not to 915 00:46:59,280 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 5: be trifled with. 916 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, he'd be a snack. He's like, I know they 917 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 1: can shump that six foot fence. It's no big deal. 918 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: So of the way that plays out anything else before 919 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 1: we let you hop I know you mentioned you saw 920 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,479 Speaker 1: something else. I can't remember what it was, though, yeah 921 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:13,759 Speaker 1: it was. 922 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 5: I got a chance to check out the new Netflix film. 923 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:20,280 Speaker 5: It's coming out in theaters I think on October tenth 924 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 5: and on Netflix on the twenty fourth. House of Dynamite, Yeah, 925 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 5: which is Captain Bigelow's new movie. Stars Rebecca Ferguson, Andrecelba, 926 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 5: Tracy Letts, pretty big cast, and what it does is 927 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 5: it tells a story of sort of like in real time, 928 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 5: of the government and the military's response to an a 929 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 5: ICBM launch into the United States. But they don't know 930 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 5: who's done it, or who's behind it, or where it 931 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:55,479 Speaker 5: came from exactly, and they have eighteen minutes to figure 932 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 5: out what to do. Oh can you stop it? How 933 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 5: do you respond? And so it's this eighteen minute segment 934 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 5: replayed like three times h and it's it's it's really 935 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 5: quite terrifying when you look at the reality behind a 936 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 5: situation like that. Because we know you and I grew 937 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 5: up with war games and all that kind of stuff 938 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 5: with the with movies about you know, nuclear winter could happen. 939 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 5: We've kind of forgotten that. 940 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know about you, but I remember 941 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 1: in elementary school we had tornado drills and fire drills 942 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,839 Speaker 1: and distinkly we may have done it more than once, 943 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 1: but there was one time they'd had us go to 944 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,959 Speaker 1: the basement fallout shelter kind of thing. Oh, after seeing 945 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: a movie, like we were supposed to hide. I guess 946 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 1: if they can't hit ge or right pad or whatever 947 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 1: it was, you know, if it actually was going down. 948 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 1: And I remember being a little kid even because they 949 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:45,400 Speaker 1: were like you could duck your head under the you know, 950 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,399 Speaker 1: the desk, or use a book to cover your head. 951 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:49,839 Speaker 5: You got that, you actually got an honest to god 952 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 5: duck and cover yeah drill when you were in school. 953 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:53,360 Speaker 5: I never got the duck and cover. 954 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 4: Drill only time, and I thought they had too. I mean, 955 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 4: I didn't know anything about it. 956 00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:00,279 Speaker 1: And I told my mom about it, and she was like, uh, 957 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 1: it's you know, I wouldn't worry about it, which is 958 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 1: the way she said it, and I kind. 959 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 4: Of alluded to it. I was like, what difference is 960 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:06,839 Speaker 4: that gonna make? 961 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 6: Well? 962 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 5: I remember the original duck and cover like video from 963 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 5: the fifties with the turtle singing and everything. There's like 964 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 5: people having a picnic and they put the blanket over it. 965 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 5: Like that blanket is not going to stop a thermonuclear weapon. 966 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 1: I don't like to throw kool aid on you and 967 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:22,760 Speaker 1: you would still get wet and stained. 968 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 4: It's not going to stop nuclear fall out. 969 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right. The picnic basket is worthless against like soft. 970 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 4: Drinks, that's right. 971 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 5: But one of the things, because because I was in 972 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 5: the there was we had a press conference and Catherine 973 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 5: Bigelow was there and everything, and she talked about one 974 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 5: of the things she said was what was terrifying when 975 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 5: they were doing the research for this film. She's like, 976 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,399 Speaker 5: there's like there's like nine countries on this planet that 977 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 5: have nuclear capabilities, and like only three of them are NATO. 978 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:53,279 Speaker 5: I might have those numbers wrong, So my apologies to 979 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 5: those who know that. 980 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, well that's one of those things that we 981 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: know when the Soviet Union broke up, and we know 982 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: it's a problem now obviously, but the talk was always 983 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,839 Speaker 1: about you know, the dirty bomb, those weapons that sort 984 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:08,879 Speaker 1: of may have been missing that you know, something could 985 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:10,799 Speaker 1: be out there, but there are so many actors now 986 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: that meaning countries, nation states are otherwise there could be 987 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 1: up to no good. It's just sort of I don't 988 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 1: even know why worry about it, I guess, but what 989 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,280 Speaker 1: you just described is unnerving. Edress Alba is always great, 990 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 1: Jared Harris, which is of course Richard Harris's son who 991 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 1: was imagining, and a bunch of other stuff. This cast 992 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: seems interesting when you say it's unnerving, and it's weird 993 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 1: for you to say, so that clearly got into your head. 994 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 5: Well, like like another thing. And Big Old pointed this 995 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 5: out on the press conferences, and you see it in 996 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 5: the film. You see the play out in the film. 997 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,399 Speaker 5: You know, SECTAFF will drill this thing four hundred times 998 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,280 Speaker 5: a year. They know what to do in this situation, 999 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 5: and you know how to track the missiles and all 1000 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 5: this kind of stuff. And they and they asked in 1001 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 5: the production. They're asking their consultants and they say, you know, 1002 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 5: how much prep prep does the president get? And they're like, 1003 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,320 Speaker 5: he's for less than an hour when he takes office, 1004 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 5: just now, and that is it. And then he has 1005 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 5: this guy following him around with football and he's the 1006 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 5: one who makes the decisions of how many how do 1007 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,360 Speaker 5: we respond? Do we respond? You know, do we respond? 1008 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,800 Speaker 5: And you know, do we spend everything? 1009 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 7: Do we do it? 1010 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 5: Sturgical? I mean, and in this movie, it shows you 1011 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 5: have eighteen minutes from from the moment it happens to 1012 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 5: the moment at Land you have eighteen minutes and then 1013 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,399 Speaker 5: within that time all these decisions have to be made. 1014 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 5: So it's it shows how precariously balanced we are. And 1015 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 5: it's just we don't realize that now because that was 1016 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:38,799 Speaker 5: an eighties thing. You know, everyone's like, oh, we're past it. 1017 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 5: We are not past that. 1018 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 4: No, it's still out there, that's for sure. 1019 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 1: Kevin Carr. By the way, Silver Gecko on Substec. One 1020 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:45,880 Speaker 1: last thing I have to ask somebody message me just 1021 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: now about it. And I was going to ask anyway. 1022 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: So that's perfect. Thank you Alex for that. You mentioned 1023 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,759 Speaker 1: it Netflix film, which most of us have streaming of that. 1024 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 1: But it's in theaters and it's not just going to 1025 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 1: be in the netflick flix theaters because they have some 1026 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 1: of their own now, right, But will this be like 1027 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: at the a MC down the street downtown what uh? 1028 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 5: Generally I don't know what the release window is for that. 1029 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 5: Sometimes they do just put them in the Netflix theaters. 1030 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 5: That's that is a qualifying run, so it's eligible for Oscars, 1031 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,840 Speaker 5: oh and awards. That's why a lot of times this 1032 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:22,880 Speaker 5: time of year, you're gonna see that when when Gambello 1033 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,799 Speaker 5: Tomorrow's Frankenstein comes out, you're gonna see that with a 1034 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,359 Speaker 5: bunch of stuff that goes to Netflix where they really 1035 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 5: promoted for the at home viewing, because that's that is 1036 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,880 Speaker 5: the business model of the Netflix. But they've bought these 1037 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 5: theaters and then they can run them in these theaters 1038 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 5: in New York and LA in order to qualify. So 1039 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 5: I'm not sure how wide it's gonna run. Now, wake 1040 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 5: Up something like Wake Up dead Man, which is the 1041 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 5: next NICs out movie, that might get a wider release 1042 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 5: in theaters, because that tends to make a little bit 1043 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,759 Speaker 5: more money in wide release than than some of these 1044 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,800 Speaker 5: smaller movies or or these more targeted no pun intended. 1045 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, thanks for that. 1046 00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if you can make a little bit 1047 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 1: more money, who doesn't want more money in general? Yeah, 1048 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 1: so I totally get that. Kevin Cart's good to talk 1049 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: to you again. Sorry we missed a week.

It's been around going on for 1090 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 1: a while in the news. It's been now the better 1091 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 1: part of ninety days. I think it's a three months 1092 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: since p diddy. Sean Colmes used to be puff Daddy, 1093 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 1: I mean pick various aliases in his creative outlook, including 1094 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,320 Speaker 1: big screen work too in a great movie called Maids 1095 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 1: from a number of years ago too, made with the 1096 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 1: dead Colombo some time ago. 1097 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 4: But serious reasons why he's in the news. 1098 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:48,240 Speaker 1: He was convicted in federal court in New York three 1099 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:53,400 Speaker 1: months ago on two prostitution related charges, acquitted of what 1100 00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 1: was considered to be a much more serious charge of racketeering, 1101 00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:01,440 Speaker 1: conspiracy and sex trafficking, but he is still looking to 1102 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:05,320 Speaker 1: get what could have been a good number of years, 1103 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:09,720 Speaker 1: like ten eleven years instead with time served. Another four 1104 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:13,400 Speaker 1: altogether is what he's been sentenced to, So he's going 1105 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 1: to go away for a while, in addition to also 1106 00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: having a pretty decent size fine associated with it. All 1107 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: the talk of sex trafficking, prostitution issues and Hammer coming 1108 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 1: down on that, it's gotten a lot of attention. I 1109 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 1: don't know how much of a big deal this is 1110 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 1: for everybody in general at this point, but for anyone 1111 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 1: wanting justice, anyone wanting retribution for wrongdoing and putting people 1112 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: in situations that they don't want to be forced into 1113 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 1: some type of sex trade or otherwise. This is probably 1114 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 1: what people wanted, is an outcome as a penalty for 1115 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,400 Speaker 1: that type of behavior. He of course said all the 1116 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:56,440 Speaker 1: things that you would hope someone would say, certainly what 1117 00:56:56,600 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: a lot of times people say when they're coming up 1118 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 1: on sentencing after a conviction, to try to lessen what 1119 00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 1: they could be having to navigate when it comes to 1120 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: being locked up in losing their freedom. So what I'm 1121 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,800 Speaker 1: wondering about is this. And Cassie Ventura, by the way, 1122 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: one of those a singer that was sort of a 1123 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: part of his groups tutelage and his production and all 1124 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 1: the other stuff that goes with it. She testified against him, 1125 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: very serious contributor to that prosecution and help get that 1126 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 1: conviction came out. And she says, well, nothing can undo 1127 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 1: the trauma caused by Combs. The sentence imposed today, this 1128 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 1: is what she said earlier, recognizes the impact of the 1129 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:43,960 Speaker 1: serious offenses he committed. She says, we're confident that the 1130 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 1: support of her family and friends, Miss Ventura will continue 1131 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 1: healing and knowing that her bravery and fortitude have been 1132 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 1: an inspiration to so many. What I'm wondering is this, 1133 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 1: And I'll open up the phones and see where your 1134 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 1: head is on this five three seven four nine, seven thousand, 1135 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:07,240 Speaker 1: eight hundred, the Big One. If you're on X what 1136 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:09,400 Speaker 1: used to be called Twitter. I guess I still have 1137 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,040 Speaker 1: to say that for some because occasionally people will say 1138 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 1: I got there on T footer, But it's X. Yeah, 1139 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 1: that's what it is and that's what it has been. 1140 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 1: At Stirling Radio. You can find me there three seven 1141 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: four nine seven eight hundred the Big One. You can 1142 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 1: talk back the iHeartRadio app as well by clicking on 1143 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 1: that microphone. Do you think that five years for what 1144 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:31,680 Speaker 1: he was convicted of is enough? 1145 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 4: Is it fair? 1146 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: Is it just the judge certainly making that determination. Prosecution 1147 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 1: wanted to full ride. Defense wanted what had already been 1148 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 1: served effectively, because that's their job. 1149 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 4: I mean, nobody wants to go away. In some cases. 1150 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 1: Being famous and notable maybe makes his time behind bars 1151 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 1: more difficult. In some cases from what they say, that 1152 00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:55,520 Speaker 1: may make it a little bit easier of a ride, 1153 00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:58,120 Speaker 1: depending on how you look at it. Certainly will help 1154 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: his street cred in some circles relation to that. But 1155 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 1: if you are someone who loves women as I do, 1156 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: whether it's your mother, your sister, your daughter, or otherwise 1157 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 1: the woman in your life if you are a woman, 1158 00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:14,400 Speaker 1: my guess. I hate to make an assumption. I learned 1159 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,479 Speaker 1: that watching reruns of the Benny Hill Show on Channel 1160 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: nineteen when I was a young sterling. You make an 1161 00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 1: ass to you and me when you assume. But one 1162 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: would surmise that most people that are reasonable looking at 1163 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 1: someone who's been convicted of something like that, should go away, 1164 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: should spend time, should be a penalty because they were 1165 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 1: convicted of doing something that caused harm to another or others. 1166 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 1: In relation to that, he did spend thirteen months away already, 1167 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 1: he'll get credit for that. Plus the issue of bond 1168 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 1: five year Supervoice release in addition to that, and apparently 1169 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 1: obviously fairly broken up about it, I'm wondering, do you 1170 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 1: think it's fair? Is it reasonable? 1171 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 4: Is it just? 1172 00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 1: And in this time and talk of all the Epstein 1173 01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 1: files and tapes that are still dripping out with no 1174 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 1: real information beyond that there's some big fish out there 1175 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 1: who have done some pretty serious thing to some underage 1176 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 1: women and others. A part of that, and occasionally here 1177 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 1: in the news you hear in the tri State, other 1178 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 1: parts of Ohio and the country it's a fairly common thing. 1179 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 1: It's the oldest profession out there, and oftentimes it's not 1180 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 1: women of age making a choice to you know, make 1181 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 1: money the old fashioned way. It's people that have been 1182 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:36,720 Speaker 1: forced into it, marginalized, trafficed or otherwise. If I've went three, seven, four, nine, seven, 1183 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 1: eight hundred the big one, what do you think. Let's 1184 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 1: get to bond Hill and Rafael haven't talked to Raffi 1185 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 1: in a while. Welcome back to seven hundred WLW with Sterling. 1186 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 5: How are you, brother, Sterling? 1187 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:46,720 Speaker 3: How's it going? 1188 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 1: No complaints, my man, it's a nice, beautiful Friday night 1189 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 1: and talking to you life is good. 1190 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:54,960 Speaker 6: Well, man, can't get no better than this, hey, Sterling, Man, 1191 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 6: I got a soft spot for women as well. Females. 1192 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 8: Yes, my mother, grandmother. 1193 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:10,160 Speaker 6: White, anybody you know that's a female. Men who abuse them, 1194 01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 6: beat them, rape, sexual assault, manipulate them are lower than 1195 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 6: the lowest creature ever in the history of life. I 1196 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:33,960 Speaker 6: hate saying that guy's name, but he is pure scum, scum, 1197 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:43,000 Speaker 6: unadulterated filth. Unfortunately, the charges that's stuck the judge, and 1198 01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 6: I know judges has to be totally unbiased and whatnot, 1199 01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:50,920 Speaker 6: but it seems like the sentence for the charges fits. 1200 01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 6: Even though I don't have a problem that the prosecution 1201 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 6: where they were asking for a full eleven years and whatnot. 1202 01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 6: The five years or whatever that he got, he could 1203 01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,920 Speaker 6: have done that half that time with eleven or so. 1204 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,920 Speaker 8: But so be it. 1205 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:16,400 Speaker 6: But I think that if you and I followed the case. Sterling, 1206 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,800 Speaker 6: one of the witnesses that would have the prosecution had 1207 01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 6: lined up to speak today in the eleventh hour, she declined, 1208 01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:30,720 Speaker 6: that's because of fear. And this dude ran a criminal 1209 01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:38,960 Speaker 6: enterprise based on sex, drugs, intimidation, fear of violence, a 1210 01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 6: gun running. He ran a criminal network empire. And of 1211 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 6: course you know that the jury they tossed out things 1212 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 6: that they didn't think were revealing everything. 1213 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,160 Speaker 8: But I thought that the. 1214 01:02:55,080 --> 01:03:00,400 Speaker 6: Prosecute, I'm sorry, prostitution across state lines. I thought that 1215 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:06,880 Speaker 6: that was definitely relevant. But this guy should get the 1216 01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 6: full amount of time possible. And he's not going to 1217 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 6: get it because he still had people who worked for him, 1218 01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:20,360 Speaker 6: who abused women, intimidated women, beat women, and and and 1219 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:25,040 Speaker 6: their family members and whatnot. And and people were fearful 1220 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:33,080 Speaker 6: of this guy, but his his bs crying and and 1221 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 6: and and speaking before the court and letters and everything 1222 01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 6: like that. He's talking about that. You know he's so 1223 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,920 Speaker 6: honest now and you know he'll never do it like that. 1224 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 6: Remember when the video when he beat hit Casfie in the. 1225 01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 4: Hallway the elevator. 1226 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 6: Right now he said, prior to that video coming out, like, oh, 1227 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 6: I've never hit her. I never abused Kathy. The video 1228 01:03:55,960 --> 01:04:01,000 Speaker 6: drops and everything in crickets. See, he's a live sterling 1229 01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 6: because he's just I'm only hanging up so you can 1230 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 6: get other calls because I don't want anything to slip 1231 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:11,800 Speaker 6: out of my mouth. Okay, he disgusts me, brother, he 1232 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 6: really does. 1233 01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:15,120 Speaker 1: I understand.

I appreciate the call. 1235 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 1: One question before you bounce, though, is it interesting to 1236 01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 1: you as it is to me? The fame, the fortune, 1237 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 1: the notoriety oftentimes brings a soft feeling, more of a 1238 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 1: feeling of either indifference or somehow uh an idea of 1239 01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,800 Speaker 1: softness and consideration for the accused in this case, the 1240 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:42,960 Speaker 1: convicted and did it columns in a situation like this, 1241 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,160 Speaker 1: to compare to if it was just somebody random off 1242 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 1: the street, he unfortunately. 1243 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:53,160 Speaker 6: Yes, and then he had his kids and family members 1244 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,440 Speaker 6: parading in front with the fake peers and all that. 1245 01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 6: You know, they're just looking at the money. He's talking 1246 01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:02,520 Speaker 6: about his business is gone and everything like that. It's 1247 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:06,680 Speaker 6: not he's still going to make money by ways of 1248 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:13,840 Speaker 6: his criminality. But unfortunately, jury members and others and especially 1249 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 6: in the black community, you know, sterling, but they just 1250 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 6: see this guy. You know, it's just like I think 1251 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:22,640 Speaker 6: one of his attorneys she got up there crime saying, like, 1252 01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 6: you know, he's a beacon of hope in the black community. 1253 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 6: The hope is that you hope that this guy doesn't beat, rape, 1254 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 6: drug your daughter, niece, granddaughter. 1255 01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:35,600 Speaker 5: That's that's the hope. 1256 01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just. 1257 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:39,680 Speaker 6: All bs that they get caught up in this.

But we're in a society historically, 1263 01:05:56,880 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: globally speaking, that is marginalized, treated as less than insignificant 1264 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 1: or as property. Women and certainly children in so many cases, 1265 01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:08,360 Speaker 1: and it continues to be the case like that. Now 1266 01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 1: it's it's bewildering. You're right, you know, and I was 1267 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:14,840 Speaker 1: raised by Yeah.

You're never going to completely eradicate the so 1293 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:28,400 Speaker 1: called black market of trade of drugs or sex and 1294 01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:32,800 Speaker 1: so forth, but to have it safer and more secure, 1295 01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:36,560 Speaker 1: and it is allowed to have some hand of authority 1296 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:41,160 Speaker 1: in there for health care and keeping the activities safer, 1297 01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 1: not completely safe, and making sure that it's people that 1298 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 1: are in it because that's what they choose rather than 1299 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 1: what they've been forced to do. Does that not make 1300 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:52,640 Speaker 1: it better? Should that not be something that we talk about. 1301 01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:56,200 Speaker 1: I'm not saying normalize it, but it's going on. It 1302 01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:59,320 Speaker 1: has always gone on, and it will never stop going 1303 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 1: on because if not getting it, and even if you've 1304 01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 1: got it at home, there's a whole lot of people 1305 01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:06,760 Speaker 1: who like to either buy a power play or to 1306 01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 1: get what they can't get at the house someplace else 1307 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 1: out there. Five point three seven eight hundred the big 1308 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:14,919 Speaker 1: one real quick, Let's get Chad here before the break 1309 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 1: on hold, and then we'll give you a chance to 1310 01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,599 Speaker 1: speak your mind as well. Chad, what do you think 1311 01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 1: are with Sterling on the big one? 1312 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:22,280 Speaker 9: Hey, thanks for all Listen everything that got your least 1313 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:24,000 Speaker 9: car says right, completely right. 1314 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:24,920 Speaker 8: Listen. 1315 01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 9: If I'm a lot of these victims, I got to 1316 01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:30,000 Speaker 9: be disgusted with this. The serious charges, I mean, what 1317 01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:31,920 Speaker 9: he did was serious. But I'm saying the other charges 1318 01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:34,800 Speaker 9: that they threw out, it's clear that he bought them 1319 01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 9: or paid or there's money involved here that got rid 1320 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,920 Speaker 9: of these various serious charges. And the fact of the 1321 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:41,719 Speaker 9: sense he got. I mean, I'm glad he's going away, 1322 01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:44,080 Speaker 9: but let's not kid ourselves here for what he did 1323 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,840 Speaker 9: is a slap on the wrist he's gonna get. I mean, 1324 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:48,920 Speaker 9: I'm disgusted, Like I said, the victims have got to 1325 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 9: be disgusted about this. I mean because, like I said, 1326 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:54,200 Speaker 9: the other charges that they that they threw out, and 1327 01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:56,880 Speaker 9: people had to see this coming. You know, when they 1328 01:08:56,920 --> 01:09:00,040 Speaker 9: threw these other charges out, they you knew you I 1329 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:01,800 Speaker 9: knew this was coming. He was going to get. I'm 1330 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:04,080 Speaker 9: not saying four years of I send, but what he 1331 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:07,000 Speaker 9: should have got, what the charges that had left, they 1332 01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 9: should have gave him the max. Considering all the other 1333 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 9: charges that we all know he was guilty of, they 1334 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 9: threw out Chad. 1335 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:13,679 Speaker 4: You know what's interesting. 1336 01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:15,519 Speaker 1: I was talking to a friend of mine earlier today 1337 01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:18,640 Speaker 1: about it, and she was saying that before the sentencing 1338 01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 1: came out, that she thought he was going to be 1339 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 1: able to walk. She said she was surprised pleasantly, but 1340 01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:26,720 Speaker 1: not as happy as she would be, as you said, 1341 01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:28,920 Speaker 1: if he had gotten the MAX. But I'll ask you 1342 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:30,880 Speaker 1: what I asked her, and she said that she thought 1343 01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 1: it should be decriminalized and controlled in some fashion, talking 1344 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 1: about the sex trade. But it's not going to eliminate 1345 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,799 Speaker 1: those who like kids in, those who want to traffic 1346 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:42,920 Speaker 1: in people who were forced into it. But should it 1347 01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:44,519 Speaker 1: be something you know, I don't know, if you have 1348 01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,040 Speaker 1: a red light district or something like in Amsterdam or 1349 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 1: other parts of the world. Would that make things safer 1350 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:53,120 Speaker 1: and more secure for the customer as well as the 1351 01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 1: person who's doing the work. Or is that just too 1352 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:58,640 Speaker 1: far down, you know, across the line of what's inappropriate. 1353 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:03,000 Speaker 9: Do you think No, I think you're exactly right that 1354 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 9: that has to be that's something that can be controlled, 1355 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:09,360 Speaker 9: because the way it is right now, there's never going. 1356 01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:10,040 Speaker 4: To be controlled. 1357 01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:11,760 Speaker 9: It's all like you said, it's always going to be 1358 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 9: out there and the people that got all the power 1359 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 9: and the money, they're going to keep doing this stuff. 1360 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 9: It's got to be controlled. And it's something like that. 1361 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 9: I mean, I don't know the numbers, the statistic, but 1362 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 9: I'm sure something like in Amsterdam with a red audition 1363 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 9: all these other places that have something, or I'll go 1364 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:28,439 Speaker 9: to Philippines Platoff and they got like something like that. 1365 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:32,360 Speaker 9: I mean, it's it's more controlled now. Obviously you're still 1366 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 9: going to have the miners getting in there other stuff, 1367 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:37,599 Speaker 9: but there's got to be something to stop this because 1368 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:40,880 Speaker 9: this happens. And this is this because it's the high 1369 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:43,439 Speaker 9: profile case. We don't I mean, something like this happens 1370 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 9: every day that we don't hear about just because it 1371 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 9: has to be Sean Colmes, That's why we've heard everything. 1372 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 9: It's disgusting and I don't know what has to be done, 1373 01:10:50,880 --> 01:10:53,600 Speaker 9: but I think something like that. I'm not saying I'm 1374 01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:55,559 Speaker 9: promoting it, but that might be the only way to 1375 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:56,920 Speaker 9: kind of slow this crap down. 1376 01:10:56,960 --> 01:10:57,360 Speaker 8: That's it. 1377 01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 4: You know, great call chat. 1378 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 1: Appreciate the takes, man, I appreciate you listening being a 1379 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,479 Speaker 1: part of the show.

We'll get an earful 1395 01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:55,280 Speaker 1: about what looks to be a positive news about a 1396 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:58,360 Speaker 1: broker peace deal and an agreement between Israel and Hamas. 1397 01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:00,880 Speaker 1: We'll see how that plays out coming up after your 1398 01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 1: eleven thirty report. Between then and now, continue on a 1399 01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:06,600 Speaker 1: little of this conversation. Actually, I have a lot of 1400 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 1: things I want to get to in a short amount 1401 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:12,680 Speaker 1: of time. Mentioning earlier about the outcome and the sentencing 1402 01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 1: of Sean Ditty Colms used to be puff daddy, a 1403 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 1: puffy whatever you want to call Hi, Pete didty, it 1404 01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:21,680 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Inmate number whatever you want to call it. 1405 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:25,800 Speaker 1: Looking away now to fifty months locked up just over 1406 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 1: four years for two prostitution a prostitution related charges with 1407 01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:35,400 Speaker 1: the prosecution that successfully convicted him some three months ago, 1408 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:39,160 Speaker 1: about ninety days it was sentencing, coming out today, could 1409 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:41,800 Speaker 1: have faced something in the neighborhood of eleven years and 1410 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,840 Speaker 1: a couple extra months associated with that. I ask you, 1411 01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 1: is that fair? Is reasonable judgment? Judgment? And because it 1412 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:50,760 Speaker 1: is the oldest profession in the book, But there's a 1413 01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 1: difference between somebody deciding to do that as a line 1414 01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:57,040 Speaker 1: of work and revenue generation as a job for one 1415 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 1: of a better way to describe it, so called oldest 1416 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:03,400 Speaker 1: profession there is, and being forced into it to be traffic, 1417 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 1: to be abused, to be beaten for somebody else's profit. 1418 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:10,840 Speaker 1: In this is really sort of what that boiled down to. 1419 01:13:11,479 --> 01:13:13,439 Speaker 1: If you are a woman. If you are a mother, 1420 01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:17,880 Speaker 1: a daughter, a sister, a grandmother, you name it an 1421 01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 1: aunt whatever it is. I know I was raised by 1422 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 1: a mom who did it on her own. She has 1423 01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:28,559 Speaker 1: like four three four sisters, and I'm sympathetic. I love women, 1424 01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 1: and one making a choice to do something is one thing. 1425 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:36,880 Speaker 1: One being forced into it. Abused in general is a 1426 01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:40,160 Speaker 1: weird thing when you're talking about buying of a person, 1427 01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:44,200 Speaker 1: whether it's renting them their parts or otherwise, which is 1428 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:46,920 Speaker 1: sort of what it boils down to their accompaniment whatever 1429 01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:51,920 Speaker 1: it is. In general, trafficking of them is an odd scenario. 1430 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 1: But I think freedom of choice for consenting adults is 1431 01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:59,720 Speaker 1: one thing. This clearly was something else. Is that time 1432 01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:04,200 Speaker 1: away some fifty months legit? Is it reasonable? Is it rational? 1433 01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:10,759 Speaker 1: What about the decriminalization of and legality of somehow bringing 1434 01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:13,640 Speaker 1: out prostitution in a more controlled way the way it 1435 01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:16,520 Speaker 1: is in parts of Nevada and other parts of the world. 1436 01:14:17,040 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 1: Is that something that would make it safer and more secure? 1437 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,040 Speaker 1: Five three, seven, four, nine, seven, eight hundred The big one. 1438 01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:27,960 Speaker 1: I asked this before, and I'll restate this. I got 1439 01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:31,479 Speaker 1: some hate at Sterling Radio one X about this. Five 1440 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:35,160 Speaker 1: one three seven nine eight hundred, the big one.

There's always going to be be a black 1449 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,400 Speaker 1: market for it. Even though there's legal weed, there's still 1450 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:07,040 Speaker 1: a black market for that and a danger associated with it, 1451 01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,519 Speaker 1: depending on who you're dealing with and how it rolls. 1452 01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:12,720 Speaker 1: I want to know what you think, Tinaz First was 1453 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:15,360 Speaker 1: Sterling appreciate your holding for so long?

Let me get this right. 1458 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:29,920 Speaker 10: When I first started listening, I thought they said that 1459 01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 10: did he got five years eleven years? 1460 01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 3: No? 1461 01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:34,320 Speaker 4: No, no, he was up. 1462 01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:37,599 Speaker 1: He could have faced like eleven years plus he got 1463 01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:41,599 Speaker 1: four years for plus time served already, which is somewhere 1464 01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 1: in the neighborhood of thirteen months. I think he's already 1465 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:48,000 Speaker 1: been away, so but he'll have another four years behind bars. 1466 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,120 Speaker 8: Well, I think that's a travesty to women. 1467 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:58,080 Speaker 10: I think it's hugely disrespectful for our legal system to 1468 01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 10: only have given him that much triticularly most of us 1469 01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:04,519 Speaker 10: thought he should have gotten twenty years or longer. Not 1470 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:10,840 Speaker 10: only was its sex trafficking, it was very brutal beatings. 1471 01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:13,519 Speaker 8: It was you know, they were. 1472 01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:15,959 Speaker 10: Threatened with their life. 1473 01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:17,680 Speaker 8: You also have the. 1474 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 10: Drug trafficking, and if you're taking it to another country, 1475 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:27,320 Speaker 10: wouldn't that be illegally transferring drugs or transferring drugs internationally, 1476 01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:33,080 Speaker 10: which they seem to blow over. I think, you know, truthfully, 1477 01:16:33,120 --> 01:16:37,559 Speaker 10: it's embarrassing for our legal teams, our legal systems. There 1478 01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 10: was so much that he was in charge for that 1479 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:42,800 Speaker 10: he should have been certainly a whole lot more than 1480 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:44,800 Speaker 10: just prostitution. 1481 01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:49,000 Speaker 1: You know, I was just going to ask you, because 1482 01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 1: you know, all the talk and it's sort of died 1483 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:54,280 Speaker 1: down because there's just so much in a news cycle 1484 01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 1: at this point. 1485 01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 4: I mean, it's almost overwhelming a wave of it. 1486 01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:01,760 Speaker 1: But you know, the Epstein Fi else those associated with it, 1487 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:04,679 Speaker 1: we know he killed himself allegedly. We know about Elayne 1488 01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 1: Maxwell in her circumstance and her sharing of information subsequent 1489 01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 1: to her prosecution. Her time away got her a little 1490 01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:15,920 Speaker 1: bit of a softer, more livable circumstance, which I think 1491 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 1: is a joke. 1492 01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:17,479 Speaker 4: Frankly. 1493 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:21,160 Speaker 1: Yes, that being said, do you think you know what 1494 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:25,120 Speaker 1: about what we don't know now and what is apparently 1495 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,880 Speaker 1: yet to be shared openly about all that with the 1496 01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 1: Epstein files thing, And I'm not you know, I don't 1497 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:33,040 Speaker 1: care who's involved. Isn't that something that should be also 1498 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 1: thought of, because I mean, this stuff happens all the time. 1499 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1500 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:39,720 Speaker 10: Absolutely, And I think a lot of the hold up 1501 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:43,519 Speaker 10: on you know, the Epstein trials is because there's too 1502 01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 10: many political people and too many people in high up positions, 1503 01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,840 Speaker 10: even from other countries that were involved in the Epstein 1504 01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:55,320 Speaker 10: And I think that's that's a travesty that because of that, 1505 01:17:55,520 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 10: we're not going to really know the truth on all 1506 01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 10: of that, And that's I think that's bull crap, you know, 1507 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 10: I mean, the American people are you know, we're kept 1508 01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 10: away from so much of the truth because who may 1509 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:13,880 Speaker 10: be involved and what the position is and what money 1510 01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:18,000 Speaker 10: they have involved. And not do that way. You know 1511 01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:23,000 Speaker 10: who's like has had you know, instances where on on 1512 01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:27,439 Speaker 10: my phone that I have gotten news that states a 1513 01:18:27,439 --> 01:18:30,719 Speaker 10: lot of different actors that are involved in that as well, 1514 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 10: And I think because of their money and their position, 1515 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:37,720 Speaker 10: is wrong for them not to be named, not for 1516 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:41,599 Speaker 10: the American people to medd the truth. You know, I 1517 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:43,599 Speaker 10: think you know it all boils down to a lot 1518 01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 10: of people. Well, it boils down through money and who 1519 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:46,200 Speaker 10: you are. 1520 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, power, money, power, authority. It It's always been the 1521 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:52,760 Speaker 1: case and it will always be the circumstance. Tina, you 1522 01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:55,879 Speaker 1: mentioned something associated with us that I think is relevant 1523 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:59,120 Speaker 1: in thought provoking. So I'll pose the question I've posed 1524 01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 1: to others and have mentioned here before, if in fact 1525 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:06,800 Speaker 1: it were decriminalized, if it were controlled, would it make 1526 01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:09,800 Speaker 1: it safer and more secure for more people involved, be 1527 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:13,080 Speaker 1: it the customer, the client, one for health, and all 1528 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:15,800 Speaker 1: the other stuff that goes with it. It's already going on, 1529 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:18,719 Speaker 1: It's always been going on. But the difference, of course, 1530 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 1: in the case of Diddy with what he was convicted of, 1531 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 1: with those with the Epstein thing is a little bit 1532 01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:27,679 Speaker 1: different because we're talking about underage girls. In many cases 1533 01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:31,320 Speaker 1: effectively children kids is really what it is youngteen girls, 1534 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:33,520 Speaker 1: which is really bewildering. 1535 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:39,240 Speaker 8: And that's rage. That's not just sex trafficking. That's also rape. 1536 01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:43,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, underage and even women over age that you know 1537 01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:46,679 Speaker 10: are forced into it. It's that's rape as well as 1538 01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 10: well as the sex trafficking. And don't I don't think, 1539 01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:54,479 Speaker 10: I don't believe that it should be any any breaks 1540 01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:57,240 Speaker 10: for that money or power. I know I was right 1541 01:19:57,280 --> 01:20:00,240 Speaker 10: at eleven years old. I spotted even at a eleven 1542 01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:03,880 Speaker 10: years old with my mother and the guy got forty 1543 01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:07,639 Speaker 10: years and he did thirty six thirty six with those 1544 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:10,599 Speaker 10: forty And we need to see sentences like that again 1545 01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 10: where you know they're giving you know, they do the crime, 1546 01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:17,120 Speaker 10: they get sentenced, and they should do the time the 1547 01:20:17,160 --> 01:20:20,400 Speaker 10: full time. Too many people are let out early and 1548 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:22,720 Speaker 10: it's another reasons for them to continue doing what they 1549 01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 10: were doing. The prostitution has been around as long as 1550 01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:28,640 Speaker 10: we know. It doesn't make it right, It shouldn't make 1551 01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:33,200 Speaker 10: it legal, it shouldn't make it okay, and certainly it's 1552 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:35,640 Speaker 10: should be treated, you know, to the fullest extent of 1553 01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:38,080 Speaker 10: the law. You know, men can go in and do 1554 01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:41,040 Speaker 10: time or women if they break the man, which the 1555 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 10: cases are a lot lower, but they do the time, 1556 01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:47,120 Speaker 10: and they get off and they go home at the 1557 01:20:47,200 --> 01:20:50,960 Speaker 10: end of their time. Women have that memory like I 1558 01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:54,200 Speaker 10: have the memory of maybeing rate eleven, and I could 1559 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:56,639 Speaker 10: tell you the whole story beginning to end. And I'm 1560 01:20:56,680 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 10: sixty one now. So we don't get a break from it. 1561 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:04,160 Speaker 10: We don't get time off for good behavior. You remember 1562 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:05,479 Speaker 10: it for the rest of our life. 1563 01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:10,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, your sentenced to that abuse forever. First of all, team, 1564 01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:13,519 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that you suffered that. And I can't imagine 1565 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:17,040 Speaker 1: that circumstance and the fact that you went through it 1566 01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:19,760 Speaker 1: in a prosecution and they were able to send that 1567 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,040 Speaker 1: waste of flesh away for some period of time thirty 1568 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:26,439 Speaker 1: six or forty years. That's something that doesn't happen that often, 1569 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 1: especially in the window of time that you're talking about. 1570 01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:35,200 Speaker 1: That's in fact unusual. I will say this that almost 1571 01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 1: every woman that I have gotten over the years to 1572 01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:41,559 Speaker 1: be friends with, not necessarily dated, but just friends. Even 1573 01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 1: the conversation has come up. It is astounding to me 1574 01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:50,280 Speaker 1: how many tell me about being abused in some fashion, 1575 01:21:50,360 --> 01:21:53,000 Speaker 1: whether it's date rape or some other type of assault. 1576 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:57,720 Speaker 1: I would say sixty percent that I've talked to, if 1577 01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:00,559 Speaker 1: it's ever broached in conversation, have told me they victims 1578 01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:02,400 Speaker 1: of such activity. 1579 01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:07,360 Speaker 10: Yes, yes, And the thing is, and this was in 1580 01:22:07,439 --> 01:22:10,000 Speaker 10: seventy five, but we need to go back to that 1581 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:13,200 Speaker 10: same sentence, a kind where you're giving the full extent 1582 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,719 Speaker 10: of the penalty and you have to serve that all time. 1583 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 10: There's no getting off for you know, good behavior. That's 1584 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:22,680 Speaker 10: what happened with me. 1585 01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 8: They let the guy off once for good behavior. 1586 01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:27,439 Speaker 10: He was in jail for five years, and when they 1587 01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:29,800 Speaker 10: let him out for good behavior, he came out, he 1588 01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:30,240 Speaker 10: got me. 1589 01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:34,160 Speaker 8: It was right back in jail. And that's the thing. 1590 01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:34,559 Speaker 8: I mean. 1591 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:40,360 Speaker 10: Women don't get a break from time. We remember it forever. Yes, 1592 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:42,799 Speaker 10: I mean I could tell you what happened from moment 1593 01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:47,160 Speaker 10: to moment, and that was, you know, in nineteen seventy five. 1594 01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 8: So where's my break? Where's my time off? 1595 01:22:50,439 --> 01:22:52,360 Speaker 10: But you know, I rely on God? 1596 01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:52,760 Speaker 5: Was still. 1597 01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:55,600 Speaker 10: Another thing that the country is falling away from is 1598 01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:59,280 Speaker 10: the belief in God.
