WEBVTT - 11-4-25 Scott Sloan Show 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:01.840 Don't want to be an American. 0:00:02.520 --> 0:00:03.360 Scott's Flowing Show. 0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:07.000 This is seven hundred WLW on this election day where 0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:09.719 we find out the future makeup the future of the 0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:11.760 city of Cincinnati. It's a big one here with the 0:00:11.840 --> 0:00:16.160 mayoral race being decided between Aftab Pureval and Corey Bowman, 0:00:16.200 --> 0:00:19.320 and of course city council the twenty six people are running. 0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:22.560 Later on the show, Mike Wiener, I was sorry, Mark Weiner, 0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:25.759 let me try that again. Aaron Weiner, my name's messed 0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:28.120 up this morning. It's the time change and the lack 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:30.400 of caffeine. I'm gonna go with that. Aaron Weiner's on 0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:31.800 his consul candidate. We'll talk to him in the ten 0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:34.200 o'clock our a ten o six this morning. I mean again, 0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:36.080 just one of the many people who are vying for 0:00:36.200 --> 0:00:39.560 nine seats to change the makeup. I you know, projecting here. 0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:42.680 I think Aftab wins. Well, interesting to see how much 0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:44.879 Corey Bowman does and bites into that lead. And I 0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:47.120 think Aftab's feeling it for sure from a really really 0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.199 good fight, a Velian fight, Corey Bowman. But you know, 0:00:49.240 --> 0:00:52.720 pushing that boulder up the hill in deep blue Cincinnati, 0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:56.000 that's a tough one. I think that I could be wrong, 0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:57.600 but it feels to me like counsel of the one. 0:00:57.600 --> 0:00:59.440 They're the ones in jeopardy at this point too, because 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:03.600 people are feeling the pain and the crime and generally 0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:06.200 make people held accountable, if not the mayor, certainly counsel. 0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:09.440 And it fits in too because this is kind of 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:12.240 like the October surprise, if you will, actually the November surprise, 0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:15.319 and that is the shooting on Saturday, four people shot 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:17.520 outside Privy Nightclub and OTR are at one o'clock in 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:18.720 the morning, and of course you know the one in 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:20.920 Carthage as well, and you know seven people are shot 0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:24.240 in one dead. That generally gets people's attention and it's 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:26.800 just a steady but drumbeat of violence. I shared on 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:30.080 my social feed Facebook and at ex at Scott Sloane 0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:33.199 video of a man who found a gun outside Privy 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:37.400 Nightclub literally hours after the crime scene tape was cleared, 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:43.040 and it's so, I guess, indicative of what the situation 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.759 is right now and how dire it is in Cincinnati, 0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:48.200 you know, handguns, maybe even using the crime or laying 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:51.640 literally steps away from where the investigation was and joining 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:53.320 the show this morning is a man who founded the 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:56.000 gun and we're going to not use his name by 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:59.600 request because of well the people involved here makes I 0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:01.160 would do the same thing.

It's not like you know, you're outside 0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:14.519 the city and just happened to be walking down the street. 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:16.320 You live like near there, right. 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:19.639 Yeah, I live at block away, I mean to established 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.320 kind of you know who I am, and I've lived 0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:23.200 literally a block. 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:24.960 Away for fifteen years. 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.440 So I moved down over the Ryne fifteen years ago, 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:30.639 and you know, I kind of had this this business 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.280 idea that I was going to start buying abandon property 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.320 and fixing them up and rent them as apartments and 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.799 you know, kind of contributing to the you know, the 0:02:39.919 --> 0:02:42.639 presidence that you know a lot of people have seen 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:46.080 the neighborhood undergoing, and that's exactly what I did. 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.640 So I've seen I've seen it all, you know, I've 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:50.560 you moved. 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:52.720 There for opportunities, like hey, you know there's money to made. 0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:54.840 Fifteen years ago, this great renaissance which we need to 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:58.399 long overdue. I've lived here for over twenty years, and 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.560 in downtown was nothing for many years, and all of 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:02.519 a sudden, we have this renaissance downtown you want to 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:04.600 be part of that makes some money investing in the neighborhoods. 0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:05.200 Everybody wins. 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:08.480 Yeah, it was it was cool living. You know, it 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:10.600 still is cool sometimes living over there one. I mean, 0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:13.760 I live, you know, literally right next to I was 0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:15.600 there before rhine Geist, which is kind of crazy to 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:17.840 think about. It was just an abandoned warehouse when I 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.079 moved in, and uh, you know, a block from Family Market, 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:26.120 and you know, really what's happened is so when I 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:30.079 you know, when when a block is kind of undergoing 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.320 a resurgence or a renovation, a lot of times what 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:37.080 happens is there's abandoned properties. And then what is critical 0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:41.920 is what what becomes of those abandoned properties? Right what 0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:45.400 goes into that storefront or into that property. And you know, 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:47.920 in my situation, like ryan Geist, going in across the 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:52.840 street was critical to like making my investment or my 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.200 living experience a good one. 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.160 And now now that feels like it's in jeopard Does 0:03:58.160 --> 0:03:59.760 you feel like it's going the other way, we're reverting 0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:01.960 back to when you first moved in. It looks like 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.720 we're taking steps backward relative to what's happening, literally steps 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:06.480 away from where you live. 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:10.160 Yeah, so let me paint a picture. So north of 0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:14.720 Liberty Elm Street, which is where I live, let me 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:17.000 kind of paint a picture of like some of the 0:04:17.040 --> 0:04:21.640 most recent developments. So we've got the thing that Privy 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:24.320 was a club before. So when I first moved there 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:27.320 was a school, and after the school it became E nineteen, 0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:30.000 which was a gay club and they were awesome. We 0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:34.080 loved them, never any police problems. After that, it became 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.160 Posh Nightclub or Posh, which was like an event center. 0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:39.920 I guess you could ran or have birthday parties there 0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:42.600 and then and then that closed and then that's when 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:46.040 it was sold to the current ownership and became Privy. 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:52.560 And so not only Privy went in. And then I 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:54.679 don't know if you followed the shooting at stagger Lee's 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:56.120 up in Clon. 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.680 Yeah, individual flyer went back and it was like a 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.920 down on a teenager fourteen fifteen with a gun, shoots 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:03.960 his dude, tries to jack his phone or jack him. 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:06.279 He should the guy pulls a gun out himself, fires 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.560 and the teenager ran a couple of steps and fell 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:11.880 over dead. Yeah, I remember that like literally right there. 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:12.640 You see. 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.400 So they closed in Closton and now they're they're my 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:18.720 new neighbor directly across the street. So now they're the 0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:23.600 liquor store. And that is basically backing up to the VOA, 0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:26.599 which is one hundred and forty four bed prison, just 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.560 a bunch of sex offenders and murderers. And I don't 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:32.080 I remember the Anthony Kirklin story when you know he 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:34.000 murdered you know, he was supposed to be the VLA 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:36.120 that the jail thought he was. 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:36.640 At the VOA. 0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:38.920 The VOA thought he was in jail, his lost track 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.360 of the serial killer, and he went and murdered a 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:41.880 little girl. 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:42.200 Yep. 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:45.479 So anyway, and then you know, directly you know where 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:49.440 I live. They're very controversial forty four unit permanent support 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:53.680 of housing that city council. You know, it actually went 0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:55.440 all the way to the High Supreme Court, I believe, 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.440 because the lot that they're building this scene of was 0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:01.080 only zone for twelve units, and they are trying to 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:07.719 put forty four chronically addicted homeless. You know, alcohol addicted 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:11.080 directly next to a nightclub, directly next to a liquor store, 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:12.359 directly next to privy. 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.040 There's temptatos tell you you're trying to get clean, you're 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:17.920 trying to get sober. We're trying to rehabilitate these people. 0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:19.960 And we've put a liquor store in a nightclub right 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:21.720 and for the literally steps steps. 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:24.440 Away and literally like and then when I'm sitting there 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:26.000 and you know, and I've got you know, four and 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.599 five neighbors, and this is what we've been watching for 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:29.320 the last year. 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:30.720 It's just like, you. 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:32.680 Know, we were doing good and you know, we're we're 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.400 all taking doing cleaning up our leaves and taking out the. 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:36.640 Trash and doing the job. 0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:37.880 And then and then. 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:41.120 One decision after the next, and there's. 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:42.320 Like there's no planning there whatsoever? 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:42.480 Is it? 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:44.960 Like, Hey, we have a we have a diabetes treatment 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:46.560 center here and we put in a dairy queen in 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:47.080 the food court. 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:48.400 Well, what the hell are we doing here? 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.640 And I want you to know, like We've called like 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:55.359 like city city Hall in the mayor, Like I've called 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:59.279 Aftab's office. I've talked to his assistant, like I let 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:02.159 he knows that they're putting a liquor store in directly 0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:05.120 across the street from a permit support of drug addiction. 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.480 How like, so like I want you to know that, 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:08.280 like this isn't like. 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:09.159 They're not aware. 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:11.360 You're making them aware. 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:15.200 So no, we've we've done our part, you know, We've 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:18.000 communicated to them and let them know, like, hey, if 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:21.720 the goal is to like make this neighborhood better and 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:25.040 faifer like you know, you're you're you're keep filling his 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.200 bucket up. Okay, you keep selling it up, you keep 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:29.040 selling it up, and as we saw this past weekend, 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:33.000 like the bucket's going to overflow, you know, and and you. 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:35.520 Like to me, it sounds like to me, okay, we're 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:37.640 just saying yes to everything. There's no sense of planning, 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:39.600 but it feels good. Hey, let's get a rehab thing. 0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:42.640 This morning on the Scott's Loan Show, I've got the 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:45.480 man on remaining anonymous here for for reasons I'm pretty 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.480 obvious to everyone is that this is the guy who 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:49.960 found the gun. If you haven't seen the video, this 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:52.760 has found the Privy night club shooting on Saturday. Early 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:54.600 Sunday morning, gets up for a walk in his neighborhood 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:57.120 lives right around the block, and uh, you can see 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.440 it on my X feet at Scott Sloan and you 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:01.040 see the gun laying there right in the grass. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:02.680 So let's segue to that. 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:04.920 Now, you walk for a morning, walk your day, and 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:06.760 I think the background is important because you know you're 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.320 putting money in the neighborhood. Things are great for a while. 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.680 Privy comes in maybe some of these decisions, and that's 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:15.080 been under the left, this current administration. This isn't a Cranley, 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:17.240 this is under aft Tip. All this stuff is going 0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:20.240 on because that is the pretext for what happened on Saturday. 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:22.760 And crime is certainly violent crime, A lot of areas 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:25.520 is feeling out of control. Certainly property crimes are a 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:27.040 way out of control. At this point, I think those 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:30.239 two things are tied together. You're walking along at Sunday. 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.600 But how many hours after they pulled the crime scene 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:36.120 tape off of the Privy investigation, open the street back up, 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.080 would you say that you found that gun liner? 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:42.720 Yeah, so this is early. It was probably nine am. 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:45.280 I didn't even know a shooting had happened. Oh Tom, 0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:48.480 I was waking up of Sunday morning. I was walking 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:50.760 down the street and when I walked by, the first 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:53.600 time I made a video, I'd just taken a video. 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.439 We can't stand Privy because it's just been one thing 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:58.280 after the next step for the next at the next right, 0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:00.199 I took a little video just to show like the 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.000 trash that was outside, you know, I thought that it 0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:05.200 was going to be a good video to have to 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:07.080 show like, hey, at the end of the night, this 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.040 is how they leave this place, and like this is 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:12.520 just one of the fifty reasons why, like we hate 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.840 having to miss neighbor. And to turn the corner in 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.640 my video into the alley right in front of you know, 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.040 the establishment, and there's like, look like a murder scene. 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:22.760 Like it was just like a giant pool of blood 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:25.120 and uh. And so that was the first time I 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.920 was like, okay, what happened to here last night? And 0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.600 I got on the Citizen app and I saw that 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:35.760 four people had gotten shot and so so anyway, I 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:41.439 looked and kind of looked at the Citizen app as 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:47.800 to where the shooting looked like it took place around Privy, 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:50.000 and I just walked over there and just sitting right 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:53.120 in the grass was a handgun and so I didn't 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:55.440 even really try to look. I just just there's just 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:59.880 sitting right there. And so I called the cops and said, hey, like, 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:02.120 I don't know if you guys like even like look 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.800 for this, but like the pistol sitting right here, it's 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:08.199 directly This is a whole other topic. But like I 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.520 saw some of the security footage. I actually went and 0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:14.880 talked to the owner who has met a few times, 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:17.640 and he like showed me some of the security footage 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:20.840 and like the video is crystal clear. And so if 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:22.600 they don't make an arrest on this, like I have 0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:23.640 no idea what we're doing. 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:26.640 How many feet would you say, from where you found 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:28.960 the gun was in proximity to the to the front 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:29.360 door of the. 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:33.959 Club, So the shooting happened on the I guess it'd 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.080 be the north end of Privy. 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:36.800 There's a door. 0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:39.520 From what he said, there was a group of individuals 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:42.200 that were trying to come into the club and they 0:10:42.240 --> 0:10:45.240 didn't want to be searched. I will give you this, 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:50.280 Privy does have really impressive security, But it's the security 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:52.960 is so impressive that it's it realizes how it makes 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:55.120 you realize how alarming it is, Like these guys have 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:58.000 bold proof vests on. They look like swat swat gear. 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:01.640 The guys that are like searching you to get into privy. 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:03.559 Wow, you know. 0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:05.959 So the guys who are on the front door, right 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:11.640 the bouncers, they're dressed like paramilitary officers, paramilitary soldiers. Basically, 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:14.640 I don't normal people like me and you and maybe 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:16.240 folks listening look at that and go, well, there's a 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:17.880 place I don't really want to spend my money. And 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:20.160 if you got a dress like that to keep people out, 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:22.800 imagine we gets through the door. Imagine what's going on 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:26.040 behind the scenes. Because let's face well, seen this before, 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.080 and this has happened in areas where we've had shootings 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:30.199 and problems, and it's always this and I again, I 0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:33.720 don't want to false cast false aspersions here, but normally 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:35.679 there's like, okay, there's the answer for everybody. And then 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:39.480 the quote unquote VIP area where maybe friends, family, or 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:41.800 people who are known to the individuals who run the place, 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:43.880 they kind of go in unchecked that we've seen that 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.680 happen before, You suspect maybe that's what's going on here. 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:50.600 Yeah, So from what I was told, there's a group 0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:53.880 I saw and they looked like they were twenty five 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.280 ish years old. There's maybe five or six guys. They 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.080 didn't want to get searched at the front door, so 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.360 they went over to the side door and then they 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:04.280 got really mad like when they couldn't get in. And 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:06.080 so I don't know this series of events, but it 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:09.360 sounds like they literally just started shooting at the building, 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.439 which is insane. And it just kind of shows you 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:17.640 the kind of people that Privy is drawing literally to 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:21.880 my side yard, you know. And again, we've never dealt 0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:23.839 with this with Ryan Geist. We've never dealt with this 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:30.120 with you know, Tablespoon Cooking Company or Kanji Sushi, like 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:32.120 just all of our neighbors like this where this is 0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:34.880 the only neighbor we have. And again I want to reiterate, 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:38.680 like this was a nightclub before now like this was 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:39.360 a different night. 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:41.920 And they were fine. 0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:42.640 We loved them. 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.120 Because the people who are frequent and they know they 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.560 can get in induce maybe some stuff that they can't 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:52.040 get away with it Ryan guys to these other places, correct, correct. 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:53.880 Yeah, And so this was the first weekend where this 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:57.320 like it became really violent. But we have been calling 0:12:57.360 --> 0:13:00.800 the police and letting the city know for probably six 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:05.679 more six plus months that like it's every weekend. So 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:07.520 what happens is, you know, it's a problem. They're always 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.520 fighting outside and then really what happens is when they 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:13.679 let out at two am, it's just like a stampede 0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:17.480 of noise and violence. And what happens is they don't 0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:20.360 go home when they're at two am, so they like 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:23.840 literally go outside to their car and they have liquor 0:13:23.840 --> 0:13:26.840 bottles in their cars that they probably bought at stagger Lease, 0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:30.440 and then they're just blairing their their music, you know, 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.240 just part oh my front. 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:34.520 Yard and if you call nine one, why you call 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:35.559 it place? What's your response? 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.360 You know, sometimes they come, sometimes they don't. I mean 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:42.360 literally they'll be blocking Elm Street. I've seen like they're 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:45.040 like three cars Wyde just in Elm Street. Girls are 0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:48.000 getting out, They're twerking, making TikTok videos in the middle 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:51.120 elms C Street. It's it's insane. I mean, it's totally 0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:56.280 insane behavior. It's completely unsafe, and you know, honestly, it's 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.439 gotten to the point where like I have a box 0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:00.760 fan that I sleep with now that it's like my 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:04.599 only way of like trying attempting to drown. 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:07.640 Out, and you complain and they're like, well, there's nothing 0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:10.280 we can do. We're understaffed, we're busy going after people 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:13.000 are shooting. They're just making noise. When you talk to 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.319 the mayor's office, when you and I know you've done 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:19.040 this as a developers, a guy who's involved in investing 0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:21.240 in the city and living down there for fifteen years, 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.080 what's your reaction from the mayor? 0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:25.080 So I call? 0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:28.320 And when I call the Mayor's office, I get his assistant, 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:29.440 you know, like you can't just. 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:31.560 Call sure and talk to him. 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:33.880 So she answers and I, you know, I tell her, hey, 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:35.760 you know, she screens the call, Hey what is this about? 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:36.280 Who are you? 0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:38.400 And I say, hey, you know, my name is X, 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:41.320 and you know, I'm calling to let you know, you know, 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.400 what's going on in the neighborhood. And it's you know, 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:47.200 and like he never he didn't, He's not going to 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:49.880 call me. I actually know him. I've met him several times. 0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:53.240 He's actually been in my house before because I interviewed 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:58.040 him for a video I made for somebody. But so 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.200 I know him, you know, and like I've met them, 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:03.400 and you know, honestly, this is off topic. But you know, 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:06.840 I saw his comment yesterday he made it. I think 0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.400 I think it was Channel twelve or somebody got him 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:13.800 and they and he his comment was something along the 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:23.760 lines of in light of this historically violent behavior, and 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:27.080 he blamed it on housing, not to comment. 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:27.800 You hear it. 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.080 Yeah, of course, it's all these other factors. You know, 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:32.600 we just love criminals, criminals what they do. It's like now, 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:34.840 now we've got criminals that are victims themselves, and so 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:37.480 you don't understand and like, well, I'd love to see 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:39.920 his attitude if people were doing that next to his 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:41.920 house where he was trying to live. But of course 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:43.760 that's the problem with a lot of these folks, and 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:46.920 especially progressive like this, is that they live in glass 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:49.560 houses and then cast dispersions on everyone else who wants 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:51.840 to clean up the streets. You don't understand the problem. 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:53.960 It's a problem. It's a problem they lived in because 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:56.760 that crap is not happened. Next after that, Pureval, real 0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:58.200 quick before I let you go, because we only got 0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.640 a second or two here. You found the gun literally 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:03.480 hours after the investigation cleared it. Privy, they cut the 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:05.600 crime scene to when you called nine one one. I know, 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.160 they probably didn't tell you that they came and got 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:10.200 the gun. Do we think it was used in that 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:13.040 shooting or this is unrelated? Because you know, I think 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.880 people look at this and go, did they did the 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:18.520 investigators miss picking that gun up off the street or 0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:20.600 was it used somewhere else or just happened to be 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.040 There's so much gun violence around there that people just 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:25.920 randomly throw their guns there the zero. 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:28.400 Percent chances gun is not involved in the crime. So 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:29.880 I don't know if you if you want to look 0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:31.960 on the north side of Privy, there's bullet holes all 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:34.120 over the cinder block. So they just started shooting up 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:37.320 Privy and this gun. I mean, based on the bullet 0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:39.320 holes that I saw in the center block and like 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:43.000 the angle of them, it looks as if they literally 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:46.160 shot directly across the street and that's where I found 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:46.520 the gun. 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:51.680 And and so I mean, how could that gun not 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:52.280 be involved? 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:54.520 How did you ad miss that? That's a bigger question 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:56.640 for the police department. Is that's not a good look? 0:16:56.760 --> 0:16:59.320 Yeah, I agree, And it was kind of weird. They 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:01.800 just sent one one. I'm an officer. She came and 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:04.000 just like put on gloves, picked it up and they 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:06.280 didn't like pick photos or anything. They just she just 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:08.040 like took it and put in her car and just 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:10.280 left and it was like okay. And then you know, 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:12.679 they called the fire department because in the alley there 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:15.680 was like what looked like a homicide scene. So the 0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:19.679 fire department came and cleaned out all the you know, 0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:21.840 bleached all the blood out, and it was just it 0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:22.720 was a weird morning. 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.640 I was just well, I mean, you're watching you invested 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:27.959 so much in your neighborhood and now you're seeing it 0:17:28.000 --> 0:17:31.040 fall apart because of these broken policies and promises and 0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:34.639 ideas that people who prey on others are not predatory 0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:37.520 sociopaths and criminals, they're victims themselves, and this is what 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:38.320 you wind up getting. 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:40.840 Sadly, Are you thinking of leaving? 0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:42.360 Uh? 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:44.000 I mean that's a good question.

Thank you, good morning, thanks for having me, 0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:09.640 and good morning to all your listeners as well. 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.840 I'm already just thinking about the time change, getting depressed. 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.080 I know, it's funny when I was younger, I mean, 0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:20.359 I love cold weather, love the snow and all that stuff, 0:19:20.440 --> 0:19:24.080 But the the fifteen hours of darkness a day, it 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:26.160 really has an effect. The older I get, the worst 0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:28.440 it is. Is there a connection with any age and 0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:29.840 lack of sunlight? 0:19:31.640 --> 0:19:34.640 Well, we don't get as much sunlight when we get older, 0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:38.560 do we. We're not outside playing all the time. You know, 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:42.000 kids are outside, We tell them go outside and play. 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:47.080 And although you know, with a digital age it may 0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:51.119 have changed a lot, but adults are behind the desk, 0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:55.440 usually sitting under a fluorescent light, which is not good 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:59.480 for the brain at all. And usually we're sooped over, 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:05.760 we're dehydrated. We're drinking coffee to stay away, or maybe 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:11.879 eating that nice jelly donut, and we're just trying to 0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:17.040 brace ourselves to get through the day. So the thing 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:21.040 to do in the morning is to drink some warm water. 0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:24.080 You can drink it with lemon. You can put a 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.160 little bit of apple cide or vinegar in there, which 0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:32.280 is good for cleaning the kidneys and the liver, which 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:37.000 are two organs that help get rid of poisons. So 0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:42.639 why do we get depressed? We become over poxified in 0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:46.880 our bodies because we're stationary and the things we eat 0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:53.240 aren't necessarily nurishing. They taste good, though, So I tell 0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:59.480 people think about the basics. Think about doing some deep breathing, 0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:06.440 starting your day with an affirmation of something positive. Think 0:21:06.480 --> 0:21:11.159 about that during the day and sip water. Bring a 0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:18.119 water bottle or water container, sip it all day. The 0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:23.120 brain needs water to function, and most of us are dehydrated, especially. 0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:24.840 When you're inside and the air is dryer, it's not 0:21:24.880 --> 0:21:26.920 as humid. You're not, so you spend more time in die. 0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:29.639 That's why you get sick, because you're dried out. So 0:21:30.280 --> 0:21:33.119 hydration is a critical thing to remaining well in the 0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:33.760 winter months. 0:21:33.760 --> 0:21:35.679 For sure. What does a lemon do for me? 0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:35.880 Though? 0:21:35.920 --> 0:21:36.360 How does that? 0:21:36.480 --> 0:21:38.399 Does that beat depression and the lack of sunlight? 0:21:38.520 --> 0:21:38.760 Is it? 0:21:39.000 --> 0:21:40.760 It's not vitaes vitamin C. 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:45.520 It's vitamin C. But it also helps to cleanse the liver. 0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:48.679 And you know, God bless our livers because they're always 0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:52.200 pulling toison out of our bloodstreams for us and trying 0:21:52.200 --> 0:21:55.080 to get rid of it so it doesn't circulate so 0:21:55.160 --> 0:21:58.640 much around the body, and the limit helps the liver 0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:02.359 do that. It also helps the kidneys to function, and 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:05.080 it helps the water to taste better so you'll drink it. 0:22:05.720 --> 0:22:10.200 So there's lots of good reasons, you know. The thought 0:22:10.359 --> 0:22:16.040 of this darkness is horrific for people. So I help 0:22:16.119 --> 0:22:20.160 people look start by getting out in the sun more 0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:24.679 often when there is sun. Try to take your lunch 0:22:24.720 --> 0:22:28.520 break and maybe take something like a sandwich that you 0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:33.040 can eat while you're slowly walking, or go to the 0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:36.040 park and sit in the sun and they have a 0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:39.760 little bite to eat. So that way you're getting more 0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:43.960 sun even though we're not getting more sun. That will 0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:45.560 help the brain a lot. 0:22:46.080 --> 0:22:46.280 Right. 0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:50.520 But here's the problem here, doctor Catherine Athens. Here's the 0:22:50.520 --> 0:22:53.840 problem with Cincinnati, Ohio. Problem with Cincinnati, Ohio is we 0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:56.479 literally will not see the sun ntil opening day this 0:22:56.600 --> 0:22:59.360 year when the red started, and even then that may 0:22:59.359 --> 0:23:01.760 be again, but there may be a couple hours. I 0:23:01.800 --> 0:23:04.040 think in the next six months we'll see the sun. 0:23:04.440 --> 0:23:06.840 But it's just a mere rumor. It's actually a lot 0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:09.960 of people right around April start to question whether or 0:23:09.960 --> 0:23:12.120 not the sun actually exists, if it's not just one 0:23:12.160 --> 0:23:14.960 of those Internet rumors or a myth or fake news 0:23:15.040 --> 0:23:17.720 or something like that, because we're pretty sure after by 0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:20.000 the time we get through February that the sun just 0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:21.200 doesn't exist anymore. 0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:25.160 Okay, all right, Well, there are things you can do. 0:23:26.240 --> 0:23:30.479 There is something called full spectrum light bulbs that you 0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:34.199 can buy and replace your light bulbs at home with 0:23:34.400 --> 0:23:39.960 the full spectrum because part of the seasonal effective disorder, 0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:44.919 that depression, is we're not getting some of the spectrum 0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:49.760 of the sun. If you're really bad off, there are 0:23:49.800 --> 0:23:53.920 machines that you can buy. They're not too expensive, and 0:23:54.000 --> 0:23:56.560 they will you can sit have them sit in front 0:23:56.600 --> 0:23:58.679 of you. You can watch TV or listen to the 0:23:58.800 --> 0:24:03.240 radio and they will project full spectrum light at you. 0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:06.400 Okay, how many how many hours? 0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:06.679 You know? 0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:08.720 My wife got me one last year a Christmas. I 0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:11.000 said I'm gonna try. I never used it because I'm 0:24:11.040 --> 0:24:13.240 just naturally positive. As you can tell here. 0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:14.439 I am. 0:24:14.760 --> 0:24:17.320 I'm a national treasure, is what I am, doctor, And 0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:19.919 I have a user. Yeah, I plan on maybe cracking 0:24:19.920 --> 0:24:21.879 that thing. Now, how long? How many hours a day? 0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:23.439 If you've got the happy light as they call them. 0:24:23.440 --> 0:24:25.480 They're pretty cheap. You can get on Amazon too. I 0:24:25.520 --> 0:24:27.280 didn't know about the light bulbs. You could put full 0:24:27.280 --> 0:24:29.280 spectrum light bulbs on the same thing. So if you 0:24:29.400 --> 0:24:31.359 got your I don't know, your easy chair next to 0:24:31.359 --> 0:24:34.240 your coucher, you know light next year couch light, use 0:24:34.280 --> 0:24:35.640 that when you're sitting there watching TV. 0:24:36.600 --> 0:24:38.320 How many hours a day do you need that though. 0:24:39.480 --> 0:24:40.280 Not very many. 0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:45.240 Actually you could start off with maybe two, one in 0:24:45.280 --> 0:24:48.960 the morning and one in the evening, you know that, 0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:52.720 maybe two If you don't have two, start off with 0:24:52.840 --> 0:24:55.840 twenty minutes a few times a day if you're home, 0:24:56.840 --> 0:25:00.119 but at least twenty minutes okay at a time. And 0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:04.920 it's really very useful. It helps a lot. It helps 0:25:05.480 --> 0:25:11.639 to retard that sad kind of syndrome in the winter 0:25:11.840 --> 0:25:16.080 with no light. Another thing is, if it's too cold 0:25:16.080 --> 0:25:24.639 to go outside, do some aerobic exercise inside. Get the 0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:30.040 blood going through your body, you know, get circulation going 0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:35.520 along with the light, and that will help the feeling 0:25:35.800 --> 0:25:41.240 of sadness and depression. It will actually make you feel better. 0:25:41.280 --> 0:25:42.040 More positive. 0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:43.560 Well, exercise is good for you. 0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:45.359 I mean, I know it's in the days that if 0:25:45.400 --> 0:25:47.600 I go a few days between workouts, I noticed I 0:25:47.640 --> 0:25:49.639 start to get little more tired and irritable than I 0:25:49.680 --> 0:25:53.000 normally am, and it's because I'm missing my workout. So 0:25:53.200 --> 0:25:55.199 I get that Doctor Katin Athens on the show this 0:25:55.280 --> 0:25:58.919 morning on seven hundred WLW got the time change. We 0:25:59.000 --> 0:26:01.920 lose an hour, and now darkness will encompass us and 0:26:02.480 --> 0:26:05.840 develop us here for the next five months roughly in Cincinnati, 0:26:05.880 --> 0:26:07.919 we won't see the sun maybe for a couple of minutes, 0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:10.159 I think, in the next five months here too. Some 0:26:10.280 --> 0:26:12.159 may say the sun was cut out in an extreme 0:26:12.560 --> 0:26:14.640 some sort of extreme budget cut or something like that, 0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:17.480 and or maybe the sun was captured and stolen by aliens, 0:26:17.720 --> 0:26:19.280 or we just don't get so you will not see 0:26:19.320 --> 0:26:21.440 the sun for quite some time in Cincinnati that south 0:26:21.560 --> 0:26:24.320 is Does that effect your sleep then too? I know 0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:28.719 that sun and sleep generally are at odds with one another, 0:26:28.800 --> 0:26:30.760 but does it mess with their sleep cycle too? 0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:36.920 It absolutely does. Our sleep cycle or circadian rhythms all 0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:40.320 get off. So I ask people to go to bed 0:26:40.400 --> 0:26:44.480 that hour earlier, even though it says, you know, it 0:26:44.560 --> 0:26:49.880 says four o'clock, it's actually five. So go to bed 0:26:49.920 --> 0:26:52.800 when you normally go to bed for a while, and 0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:57.760 then you can increase your bedtime maybe ten minutes each week, 0:26:57.840 --> 0:27:01.600 but go to bed, try to remain gain those same 0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:05.040 habits you have and get a lot of sleep. And yes, 0:27:05.160 --> 0:27:10.840 the sun, the sun activates trying to think of the 0:27:10.920 --> 0:27:12.920 name of the organs in the back of your head, 0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:18.480 and when you're in the sun, they're activated. When you're 0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:22.560 in the dark, they secrete melatonin. So you want to 0:27:22.600 --> 0:27:25.160 be in a dark room to sleep, but you want 0:27:25.240 --> 0:27:30.040 to have had some full spectrum light, whether it be 0:27:30.160 --> 0:27:35.040 the Happy machine or your light bulb, or for some 0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:41.360 reason there is some sunshine because that balances the brain. Now, 0:27:41.560 --> 0:27:49.680 you notice in the wintertime people become less friendly, more irritable, 0:27:50.560 --> 0:27:55.119 just because we're not moving as much and we're not 0:27:55.280 --> 0:27:59.399 drinking enough water. I mean, just think about the holidays. 0:28:00.359 --> 0:28:03.560 You don't drink all year, and you don't eat much, 0:28:03.600 --> 0:28:08.440 and suddenly you're drinking like crazy on Thanksgiving, you're eating 0:28:08.480 --> 0:28:10.800 all kinds of stuff you never eat the rest of 0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:13.439 the year, and then you feel miserable and you go, 0:28:13.440 --> 0:28:14.840 why am I feeling so bad? 0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:15.440 Yeah? 0:28:15.560 --> 0:28:18.040 Yeah, I mean I'm living my life like a medieval 0:28:18.119 --> 0:28:21.679 king or something. I'm eating literally just eating giant geese 0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:26.240 neck and drumsticks and I'm drinking wine and meat and 0:28:26.280 --> 0:28:28.680 I'm just having a blast. But then you feel like 0:28:28.760 --> 0:28:30.560 crap after. It's kind of like when you eat all 0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:32.320 the Halloween candy the same thing. 0:28:32.520 --> 0:28:38.800 Right, right? So don't I tell people don't use moderation. 0:28:39.240 --> 0:28:41.960 Yeah, but that's not fun. That's no fun, though, it's 0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:45.280 it's I. I'm the other extreme though. I believe in 0:28:45.360 --> 0:28:47.719 everything in its excess. I think if you, I think 0:28:47.760 --> 0:28:50.960 it'll balance ballances. I'll work out for three straight days 0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:52.640 and I'm gonna eat for nine straight days. 0:28:52.640 --> 0:28:53.280 What about that? 0:28:53.840 --> 0:28:53.959 All? 0:28:54.960 --> 0:28:58.520 What most people do? You're right in the groove? Oh 0:28:58.600 --> 0:29:00.040 I worked out? Why am I? 0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:00.239 I mean? 0:29:00.280 --> 0:29:02.240 Wait, when did you work out last week? 0:29:02.440 --> 0:29:02.600 Oh? 0:29:02.680 --> 0:29:05.240 Okay, Well, I don't. 0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:07.320 Want to rush into anything. I could strain. 0:29:07.160 --> 0:29:09.280 Something that's true. 0:29:09.840 --> 0:29:10.320 That's true. 0:29:10.320 --> 0:29:13.600 I don't want to jump in this exercise thing. You know, 0:29:14.960 --> 0:29:18.280 well at the time change here and losing an hour sleep. 0:29:18.320 --> 0:29:22.719 It's also too trying to get your body set because uh, 0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:26.479 you know the week when they tell you the clock changes, 0:29:26.520 --> 0:29:27.959 and then it takes you a week to get your 0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:30.200 body right again. Is it better? Is it kind of 0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:31.840 like jet legs? Should you just go to bed at 0:29:31.840 --> 0:29:34.480 the same time, or yes, go to bed. 0:29:34.360 --> 0:29:37.160 At the same time. We actually gain an hour, but 0:29:37.280 --> 0:29:41.160 the hour we gain is darkness. So go to bed 0:29:41.200 --> 0:29:43.720 at the same time, get up at the same time, 0:29:44.680 --> 0:29:50.000 and then slowly work into the new time zone. You know, 0:29:50.080 --> 0:29:52.320 if you can go to bed at the same time, 0:29:52.400 --> 0:29:55.760 get up at the same time. Drink your water. Now, 0:29:56.160 --> 0:29:58.560 if you want to know how much water you should ask, 0:29:59.080 --> 0:30:03.520 take your body eight. Say you weigh one fifty divided 0:30:03.600 --> 0:30:07.600 in half, that's seventy five and those are ounces. You 0:30:07.680 --> 0:30:12.200 need seventy five ounces of water a day, which is huge. 0:30:12.280 --> 0:30:15.480 It's more than half a gallon. 0:30:17.880 --> 0:30:19.920 Yeah, I think that's something you sip on a little 0:30:19.920 --> 0:30:21.560 bit of water all day. Go I had like two 0:30:21.600 --> 0:30:23.400 bottles of water. That's not it's not for me. And 0:30:23.440 --> 0:30:25.960 then if you're active, you need even more water. 0:30:26.000 --> 0:30:29.400 For that matter, if you're active, you need more water. 0:30:30.200 --> 0:30:35.840 And so the brain doesn't function without water. It doesn't function. 0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:41.320 Functions on glucose, water and amino acids. And most of 0:30:41.360 --> 0:30:45.239 us don't get enough amino acids because we're dieting or 0:30:45.280 --> 0:30:48.880 we're eating some kind of green and we're not looking 0:30:48.920 --> 0:30:52.400 at the fact we need a variety of amino acids 0:30:52.440 --> 0:30:56.160 for the brain to function properly. But we also need 0:30:56.200 --> 0:31:01.400 each other. We need human interaction, face to face for 0:31:01.560 --> 0:31:07.480 the brain and the neural pathways to function properly. I recommend, 0:31:07.520 --> 0:31:10.240 if you do nothing else, go to the market or 0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:14.360 the hardware store, the Walmart, whatever, and start saying hello 0:31:14.440 --> 0:31:14.920 to people. 0:31:15.200 --> 0:31:16.040 Hello, how are you? 0:31:16.080 --> 0:31:16.280 Yeah? 0:31:17.240 --> 0:31:17.880 Good morning? 0:31:18.480 --> 0:31:19.080 What do you hate? 0:31:19.120 --> 0:31:21.040 What if you just hate people? And is there no 0:31:21.080 --> 0:31:23.200 hope for you? Is it terminal? What's going on there? 0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:23.520 Doctor? 0:31:25.080 --> 0:31:25.280 Oh? 0:31:25.320 --> 0:31:26.280 It could be no. 0:31:30.080 --> 0:31:32.560 Ways, I say, the reels that don't go because people 0:31:32.640 --> 0:31:33.280 piss me off. 0:31:34.120 --> 0:31:39.080 Okay, well, well that's another story. 0:31:39.520 --> 0:31:41.200 There's just too many idiots in the world. I think 0:31:41.240 --> 0:31:43.400 people will listening to you, right, Sloan. There's too many 0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:44.760 idiots in the world. And that's why I tend to 0:31:44.760 --> 0:31:48.040 just stay home and eat and and be mindless of myself. 0:31:48.880 --> 0:31:51.080 All Right, we have do you think? As a doctor? 0:31:51.120 --> 0:31:52.840 And you studied this stuff again on the show this morning. 0:31:52.920 --> 0:31:57.080 It's doctor Catherine Athens, and she is an expert in 0:31:57.080 --> 0:31:59.360 the area of sleep. And we've got one in five 0:31:59.400 --> 0:32:02.760 Americans experiencing winter blues, according to the Cleveland Clinic. And 0:32:02.760 --> 0:32:04.720 they would know because there's no more depressing place in 0:32:04.720 --> 0:32:06.960 the world in Cleveland. So the Cleveland Clinic people, I 0:32:06.960 --> 0:32:08.800 would agree with them, and maybe even two and five 0:32:08.800 --> 0:32:11.240 at this point too. But she's a clinical and health 0:32:11.240 --> 0:32:14.960 psychologist and she's on the show talking about the time 0:32:15.040 --> 0:32:16.680 change here and what that means for you, how to 0:32:16.680 --> 0:32:19.360 combat with happy lights and making sure you're getting hydrated 0:32:19.400 --> 0:32:21.280 well enough and all that. Should we get away with 0:32:21.360 --> 0:32:23.480 daylight savings time in the clock four o clock back? 0:32:23.520 --> 0:32:28.440 Nonsense, you bet you we should. And in California we 0:32:28.560 --> 0:32:31.960 voted I think six years ago to do away with that, 0:32:32.160 --> 0:32:35.800 but we still have to do it. Someone isn't listening 0:32:35.840 --> 0:32:37.360 to the people over here. 0:32:38.280 --> 0:32:40.680 We have that problem here too, So it's not just Ohio, 0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:42.120 it's also California. 0:32:43.000 --> 0:32:49.600 Oh yeah, oh yeah, so you got bigger problems. What issue? 0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:54.920 But yes, time change the list of those problems you 0:32:55.000 --> 0:32:58.280 got over there, that's for dam imn sure. So yeah, 0:32:58.640 --> 0:33:01.280 it seems to me. I just keep one deddy constant 0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:03.840 time and we're good there this, you know, jumping back 0:33:03.840 --> 0:33:06.840 and forth every six months. So really, you know, I 0:33:06.840 --> 0:33:09.240 could see back in the day where you needed natural 0:33:09.320 --> 0:33:12.520 daylight in order to get stuff done. But we have electricity. 0:33:12.560 --> 0:33:14.440 Now we've had electricity at least I think for the 0:33:14.520 --> 0:33:15.440 last three or four years. 0:33:15.480 --> 0:33:17.520 I believe, well we do. 0:33:17.680 --> 0:33:23.000 But you know, the charcoal lobby wanted this daylight savings 0:33:23.040 --> 0:33:27.560 time because they found out that was another hour or 0:33:27.640 --> 0:33:31.959 so of sunlight. They make more money, the charcoal lobby. 0:33:32.720 --> 0:33:35.280 The charcoal lobby, no idea, blame them for this. 0:33:35.480 --> 0:33:37.680 Good lord, there's a big big charcoals behind all this 0:33:38.080 --> 0:33:39.800 big kings. 0:33:39.880 --> 0:33:40.960 Yeah. 0:33:40.480 --> 0:33:43.080 Yeah, there's a lobby for any you've got politicians, you'll 0:33:43.120 --> 0:33:44.240 have a you'll have a lobby. 0:33:44.240 --> 0:33:45.120 There's no doubt about it. 0:33:45.160 --> 0:33:49.200 So doctor Catherine Athrines Athens at H A N S. 0:33:49.440 --> 0:33:52.560 And thanks again for the time.

And now it's starting to affect you a 0:34:43.960 --> 0:34:46.080 little bit. Okay, Sun's coming up in the morning or 0:34:46.200 --> 0:34:48.680 and when I get home, it's getting dark and your 0:34:48.680 --> 0:34:52.120 mind is preparing for sure. In addition to that, today 0:34:52.239 --> 0:34:54.680 is election day, Election day. If you're in OHI, make 0:34:54.719 --> 0:34:56.640 sure you take that idea with You're gonna need it 0:34:56.680 --> 0:34:58.360 if you are going to vote. And of course that 0:34:58.480 --> 0:35:01.080 pulls open we'll get a full update on what's happening there. 0:35:01.120 --> 0:35:03.319 We'll also chat with the council candidate if you haven't 0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:06.120 voted yet. Anthony Weiner running for council one of the 0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:08.879 what twenty nine people running for counsuls some along those lines, 0:35:08.920 --> 0:35:11.200 twenty six people. It's a lot, let's put it that way, 0:35:11.239 --> 0:35:13.919 a boatload of folks. Why should you vote for him? 0:35:14.320 --> 0:35:16.839 And what he sees from an outsider's perspective. What's going 0:35:16.880 --> 0:35:19.359 on is Mayol race? Very interesting. We'll get to that 0:35:19.400 --> 0:35:21.400 just ahead here slowly seven hundred WLW. 0:35:21.680 --> 0:35:22.480 Do you want to be in? 0:35:24.040 --> 0:35:26.799 That is election day in the Buckeye States, not so 0:35:26.840 --> 0:35:30.319 much Indiana, Kentucky, Vainley, Ohio. Good Morning Scotland Show, seven 0:35:30.400 --> 0:35:32.319 hundred WW In New York as well. It's a big one. 0:35:32.360 --> 0:35:35.520 People are watching. We'll continue to get results. And again, 0:35:35.640 --> 0:35:38.279 polls closed in Ohio today at seven thirty. You do 0:35:38.400 --> 0:35:41.360 need an ID if you are going there. Don't forget 0:35:41.400 --> 0:35:43.960 the damn ID. You can you vote provisionally if you 0:35:44.000 --> 0:35:46.239 forget it, but it's just easy to bring it with you. 0:35:46.280 --> 0:35:46.600 Okay. 0:35:46.600 --> 0:35:50.879 So we got that going on, and maybe a reckoning too, 0:35:51.320 --> 0:35:53.319 And you kind of look at the tea leaves you 0:35:53.320 --> 0:35:56.600 see how maybe some polling's going alike in it. You know, 0:35:56.680 --> 0:35:58.520 his Aftabs race can be a little closer than he 0:35:58.560 --> 0:36:00.279 hopes it to be sure, and I think that's he's 0:36:00.280 --> 0:36:01.759 maybe sweating a little bit, maybe a little bit of 0:36:01.760 --> 0:36:05.320 pressure there, But mainly I think it's a down ticket 0:36:05.360 --> 0:36:07.319 and that would be for Counsole candidates. We have nine 0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:11.080 seats available and there are twenty six candidates, even if 0:36:11.080 --> 0:36:14.640 you include the guy that's in jail right now. And 0:36:15.000 --> 0:36:17.440 you know there's some I think there's some well thought 0:36:17.520 --> 0:36:19.719 people that might wind up losing their seated result. It 0:36:19.800 --> 0:36:22.880 just it seems to me like voters are going to 0:36:22.960 --> 0:36:25.160 maybe take this out on the existing council as opposed 0:36:25.160 --> 0:36:26.759 to the mayor, just the way things work out. One 0:36:26.760 --> 0:36:29.680 of the people seeking your vote today is that Aaron Weiner. 0:36:29.719 --> 0:36:32.319 He's a realtor, lives in Clifton and a charter Charter 0:36:32.360 --> 0:36:33.800 write a charter candidate for counsel. 0:36:33.840 --> 0:36:35.000 Aaron, Welcome to the show. How are you? 0:36:36.520 --> 0:36:37.879 Thank you for having me, glad to be. 0:36:37.840 --> 0:36:40.440 Here, appreciate it. How's a campaign going this? Now that 0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:43.120 it's over, I tell you what. 0:36:43.800 --> 0:36:46.879 I'm feeling good. I'm proud of the campaign that I've run. 0:36:47.440 --> 0:36:49.480 I've thought through it over the last seven months, where 0:36:49.480 --> 0:36:52.040 I've been, who I've talked to, who I've met, and 0:36:52.320 --> 0:36:54.279 the work I've done, and I'm feeling good. 0:36:55.680 --> 0:36:58.240 The big issue here, it's a referendum on crime, as 0:36:58.280 --> 0:37:02.200 I portrayed, and every candidate, yourself included, is really leaning 0:37:02.200 --> 0:37:05.080 into public safety this point. I'll play a clip of 0:37:05.080 --> 0:37:06.520 this a little bit later on I don't have time 0:37:06.560 --> 0:37:07.600 right now with you. I want to give you the 0:37:07.600 --> 0:37:10.719 most time possible. But at nine o'clock this morning, nine 0:37:10.719 --> 0:37:13.040 o six, I had a anonymous neighbor on A guy 0:37:13.120 --> 0:37:16.040 literally who lives in the shadows of the nightclub Privy 0:37:16.080 --> 0:37:18.839 nightclub that was shot up on Saturday night, walks out 0:37:18.840 --> 0:37:20.920 the morning after. Didn't know what was going on, said, man, 0:37:20.960 --> 0:37:23.879 there's crime scene tether stuff all over. Looks around, said 0:37:23.880 --> 0:37:25.640 there's a shooting there. So he walks down the block 0:37:25.680 --> 0:37:28.000 and literally steps away from the back door where the 0:37:28.040 --> 0:37:30.239 shooting took place, he finds a gun. I've got the 0:37:30.360 --> 0:37:33.400 video up on my feed at X at Scott Sloan, 0:37:34.000 --> 0:37:36.520 and you know, it's just that kind of lack of 0:37:36.560 --> 0:37:38.799 attention to detail. And I don't know if it's an 0:37:38.840 --> 0:37:40.680 indictment against the cops or not. We'll get their side 0:37:40.680 --> 0:37:42.200 of the store. So why that weapon was missed or 0:37:42.239 --> 0:37:44.200 maybe it's not even related to this or just laying there. 0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:46.840 But that's frightening to think that you could have someone 0:37:47.040 --> 0:37:49.560 denied access to a nightclub shoots up the place, and 0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:52.600 it's just a steady drumbeat of public safety and crime 0:37:52.640 --> 0:37:57.280 because many people, your self includive invested their resources into 0:37:57.560 --> 0:38:00.800 developing that neighborhood and the neighborhoods in Aroundincinnati. Living there 0:38:01.120 --> 0:38:04.839 and your livelihood and also your safety is threatened by 0:38:04.880 --> 0:38:07.840 the lack of attention to street criminals doing what they do. 0:38:09.800 --> 0:38:12.719 Correct you saw this in Clifton, did you not? We 0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:15.919 just had to shooting there and on Shortvine. How much 0:38:15.960 --> 0:38:18.400 of public how much do you think the voters are 0:38:18.680 --> 0:38:21.520 going to use this as a referendum on public safety today? 0:38:22.960 --> 0:38:25.080 I think it's the core issue in the city right now. 0:38:25.120 --> 0:38:30.239 I think it's been very public throughout the summer, and 0:38:30.320 --> 0:38:32.319 I think it's really it's really just a basic thing 0:38:32.360 --> 0:38:35.040 that people expect when you know from the from the 0:38:35.080 --> 0:38:38.080 cities that it's safe. It's it's what it's what attracts 0:38:38.080 --> 0:38:40.560 people to move into the city, which makes them move out, 0:38:41.600 --> 0:38:45.239 It brings them downtown, it's what brings them the neighborhoods. 0:38:45.280 --> 0:38:47.440 I mean, I think it's it's just a core responsibility 0:38:47.440 --> 0:38:51.120 and a core expectation of people in the city as well. 0:38:51.200 --> 0:38:55.120 People come visit the city. 0:38:54.040 --> 0:38:56.160 Have you seen violencers? Has it affected you or you 0:38:56.200 --> 0:38:56.760 live in Clifton? 0:38:58.560 --> 0:39:01.799 No, I mean, honestly, other than we we did have 0:39:01.880 --> 0:39:05.239 the issue with the with the hookah bar. So I'm 0:39:05.239 --> 0:39:07.279 not sure you're familiar with with that. That's been all 0:39:07.280 --> 0:39:11.520 over the news. Yeah, on the neighborhood, and I think 0:39:11.520 --> 0:39:14.080 they just they just got shut down finally. We've been 0:39:14.120 --> 0:39:16.400 working on this for two years, so, I mean, I 0:39:16.440 --> 0:39:19.000 think that's certainly been an issue that that we've we've 0:39:19.040 --> 0:39:23.239 had in my neighborhood in Clifton. You know that that 0:39:23.320 --> 0:39:27.600 brought a lot of a lot of filing activity. There 0:39:27.719 --> 0:39:29.880 was there was a gun. There was a you know, 0:39:30.760 --> 0:39:32.960 a gun that was Brandish we saw back in the 0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:36.319 summer there. As a result, Yeah, that's really kind of 0:39:36.320 --> 0:39:38.000 been the main thing certainly we've had. We've had more 0:39:38.040 --> 0:39:40.560 low level crimes. There's always break ins, but that's I 0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:42.440 think that's just normal. But the main thing that's been 0:39:42.440 --> 0:39:43.080 the hookah. 0:39:42.800 --> 0:39:45.600 Bar right right, and and uh, the previous guy, the 0:39:45.600 --> 0:39:47.439 guy was on and honestly with a gun in front 0:39:47.480 --> 0:39:49.600 of Privy. He said, you know all time today, look 0:39:49.600 --> 0:39:51.440 the club a let out. People go to the liquor 0:39:51.480 --> 0:39:53.600 store next Dora, a liquor store across the street by 0:39:53.680 --> 0:39:55.400 Laker or bring it with them, sit in their cars 0:39:55.400 --> 0:39:58.719 around their cars and basically, uh, take the club to 0:39:58.880 --> 0:40:02.279 the streets and you know, they'll be a loud music 0:40:02.320 --> 0:40:04.400 being played all hours of the night. He'll call the police, 0:40:04.400 --> 0:40:06.080 they won't show up, they won't do anything. There's not 0:40:06.239 --> 0:40:07.759 enough of them that's not prioritized. 0:40:07.760 --> 0:40:08.120 He said. 0:40:08.280 --> 0:40:10.080 You know, sometimes it takes an hour, two hours to 0:40:10.120 --> 0:40:12.879 get a response simply because they're overwhelmed. 0:40:13.280 --> 0:40:15.000 What is your plan to solve it? 0:40:15.040 --> 0:40:17.759 Because I understand it talking to officers, many more are 0:40:17.840 --> 0:40:20.640 leaving retirement, taken early retirement than more are coming in, 0:40:20.719 --> 0:40:24.920 simply because you know, if I work on a outside, 0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:27.000 you know, we talk about Alattle recruiting a class. Why 0:40:27.040 --> 0:40:28.880 would I want, maybe for a little bit more money, 0:40:29.080 --> 0:40:32.319 to risk my life, my family safety security to go 0:40:32.520 --> 0:40:35.200 fight a losing battle against crime in the streets of cincinnatiwork. 0:40:35.239 --> 0:40:37.600 Can I stay where I am? How can we incentivize 0:40:37.640 --> 0:40:38.280 police more? 0:40:39.840 --> 0:40:42.520 Well, that's that's a very good question. And I think 0:40:42.560 --> 0:40:45.360 that's why I'm on here this morning. I've with my 0:40:45.600 --> 0:40:49.600 with my team. I've done a research, it's a fifteen 0:40:49.640 --> 0:40:53.120 page plus research to recruit and retain our police officers. 0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:56.160 And you bring up a very good point, and we 0:40:56.200 --> 0:40:59.160 need to incentivize not just the police officer that we're 0:40:59.280 --> 0:41:02.759 fortunate enough to have with us now on CPD, but 0:41:04.200 --> 0:41:08.120 attract new talent as well as lateral talent. And that's 0:41:08.120 --> 0:41:11.640 a two prong approach. The first prong approach is a 0:41:11.680 --> 0:41:15.480 bonus structure. So you know, we've heard of in the past, 0:41:15.520 --> 0:41:17.759 we've heard of corporate buyouts where you pay people to 0:41:17.800 --> 0:41:21.480 actually retire early. This is kind of the reverse. We're 0:41:21.480 --> 0:41:25.640 actually going to offer bonus structures to encourage police officers 0:41:25.640 --> 0:41:28.720 to stay a year, two years, three years, with with 0:41:28.719 --> 0:41:33.680 with sizeable bonuses to encourage them to stay. And to 0:41:33.800 --> 0:41:35.919 your point, you know, with the issue we talked about, 0:41:36.000 --> 0:41:38.239 you know in the bar down talent, you know the 0:41:38.280 --> 0:41:42.880 other night, one time, sort of sizeable bonuses to police 0:41:42.880 --> 0:41:46.080 officers that might work in more stressful areas in order 0:41:46.120 --> 0:41:49.600 to incentivize them to stay. But I think these are 0:41:49.640 --> 0:41:52.080 ways of making sure that the talent that we have, 0:41:52.719 --> 0:41:56.479 that we've trained, that we respect, stays with us as 0:41:56.520 --> 0:42:01.960 we beef up our police force, which we are about 0:42:02.000 --> 0:42:05.120 two hundred down, if not more at this point if 0:42:05.160 --> 0:42:08.680 you take into consideration the growth we have in our city. 0:42:09.080 --> 0:42:12.960 So that's that's really the first prong of that, trying. 0:42:12.520 --> 0:42:14.759 To stop the bleeding, so to speak to you. Use 0:42:14.800 --> 0:42:15.400 a bad pun. 0:42:15.320 --> 0:42:19.560 There, right, exactly exactly, So wet's stay with us, work 0:42:19.640 --> 0:42:20.040 with us. 0:42:20.200 --> 0:42:20.600 We're going to. 0:42:20.600 --> 0:42:22.480 Incentivice to you. We're going we're gonna make it worth 0:42:22.480 --> 0:42:24.480 your while to stay with us. It's going to get better. 0:42:24.840 --> 0:42:27.120 And I think that's sort of the first prong of this. 0:42:28.120 --> 0:42:31.400 The second prong of this really involves my industry. So 0:42:31.440 --> 0:42:33.560 I'm in real estate. I'm in twenty been in real 0:42:33.640 --> 0:42:36.680 estate twenty five years. And when I when I started 0:42:36.719 --> 0:42:40.360 this process of running for a council, I wanted to 0:42:40.719 --> 0:42:43.760 work with what I know, and that's certainly that's housing, 0:42:43.840 --> 0:42:47.520 and that's housing. So but with that, I thought to myself, 0:42:47.680 --> 0:42:51.839 wouldn't it be great if our police officers, more of 0:42:51.880 --> 0:42:55.000 them lived within our city limits? And you know, they're 0:42:55.080 --> 0:42:57.440 not required to by law, they don't have to be 0:42:57.520 --> 0:43:00.040 required to, and I would never mandate that they have to, 0:43:00.160 --> 0:43:03.359 but like, let's sweepen the deal a little bit and 0:43:04.440 --> 0:43:07.239 encourage them to move here. And that would be sort 0:43:07.280 --> 0:43:11.279 of a recruiting, a recruiting tool for us. So how 0:43:11.320 --> 0:43:15.360 that's going to work. It's it's it's a down payment 0:43:15.360 --> 0:43:19.440 assistance program as well as a rental stipe. So the 0:43:19.440 --> 0:43:21.920 down payment situation will work like this. So let's say 0:43:21.960 --> 0:43:26.840 you saved seven thousand, five hundred dollars, We'll match seven thousand, 0:43:26.960 --> 0:43:28.920 five hundred dollars. So all of a sudden, you have 0:43:29.440 --> 0:43:32.600 fifteen thousand dollars down, and obviously you can certainly put 0:43:32.640 --> 0:43:34.520 more if you have it right, but you have to 0:43:34.600 --> 0:43:38.480 leave fifteen thousand dollars down. That's five percent, which you 0:43:38.520 --> 0:43:41.560 can do on a three hundred thousand dollars house, which 0:43:41.600 --> 0:43:45.440 is about the average price of a house incence not 0:43:45.520 --> 0:43:47.600 even right now. So I think that's it. Certainly, with 0:43:47.880 --> 0:43:50.880 the cost of housing going up, I think that's certainly 0:43:51.400 --> 0:43:55.040 a way to attract this interesting people to come to 0:43:55.200 --> 0:43:58.840 us versus maybe going to Green Township for blue ashespential downs, 0:43:59.440 --> 0:44:00.560 which might well. 0:44:00.440 --> 0:44:02.319 You don't have to incentive. I mean you can get 0:44:02.320 --> 0:44:04.960 it for So you get seven match seventy five hundred 0:44:04.960 --> 0:44:08.960 dollars for first responder, and now it covers half of 0:44:08.960 --> 0:44:11.440 a minimal day, but you got to commit to five 0:44:11.520 --> 0:44:14.440 years of residency, closing costs, preferred finance, you got a 0:44:14.480 --> 0:44:17.240 lender rental assistance program you mentioned that is it sounds 0:44:17.239 --> 0:44:18.959 to me like you're said it's like a mini VA 0:44:19.040 --> 0:44:21.839 program of programs they have federally for teachers to incentivize 0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:24.040 them to go into teaching. Now we're trying to incentivize 0:44:24.080 --> 0:44:25.040 people to go into policing. 0:44:26.320 --> 0:44:29.959 Correct, correct. And you touched on the second prong just early, 0:44:30.000 --> 0:44:34.160 which is a rental stipend. So obviously not everyone's going 0:44:34.200 --> 0:44:36.160 to want to rent or buy right away, or they 0:44:36.200 --> 0:44:38.520 mayn't have their needs to buy us. The next prongis 0:44:38.600 --> 0:44:41.920 of this is the rental assistant. So let you know, 0:44:42.200 --> 0:44:44.360 maybe give them up to eight hundred dollars of assistance 0:44:44.400 --> 0:44:47.680 to rent. We'll partner with some of our larger property 0:44:47.960 --> 0:44:52.400 property owners in the city to do that. And I 0:44:52.440 --> 0:44:55.080 think this could this could attract some of our younger 0:44:55.080 --> 0:44:58.439 people to want to come to come and work for us, 0:44:58.480 --> 0:45:01.200 because again the housing cost have gotten so high that 0:45:01.280 --> 0:45:03.879 this might be be a carrot for them to want 0:45:03.880 --> 0:45:07.879 to come work for CPT as opposed to other jurisdictions 0:45:07.920 --> 0:45:10.480 and again attract young talent for long jovity. 0:45:10.560 --> 0:45:12.520 All right, I like, so you're send him an incentive 0:45:12.520 --> 0:45:14.879 program to keep and retain the office. We have now 0:45:14.920 --> 0:45:17.840 to stem the time and go, hey, listen, be patient. 0:45:17.840 --> 0:45:20.160 Hold on a second. Here's here's some incentives for you 0:45:20.239 --> 0:45:22.000 to stay, which is always good, and then to get 0:45:22.239 --> 0:45:25.000 the lateral recruitment classes, which we need because that's fast tracked. 0:45:25.000 --> 0:45:27.759 That's already people who are police officers will pot of certified, 0:45:28.040 --> 0:45:30.680 ready to go. You're just training up for Cincinnati. It's 0:45:30.680 --> 0:45:32.960 going to take considerable less time than the recruit classes 0:45:33.000 --> 0:45:35.759 that we have, and that's going to help stem things 0:45:35.760 --> 0:45:39.279 here hopefully in Cincinnati. If Aaron Weiner gets elected to 0:45:39.360 --> 0:45:41.360 council today and he's joining the show this morning on 0:45:41.400 --> 0:45:43.439 seven hundred w OP. But I like that plan a lot. 0:45:43.640 --> 0:45:45.759 I like the fact you're a realtor. Realtors generally are 0:45:45.760 --> 0:45:46.240 good people. 0:45:47.719 --> 0:45:48.040 Thank you. 0:45:48.120 --> 0:45:51.360 I appreciate I appreciate you saying that we've been compared 0:45:51.440 --> 0:45:52.120 to you know. 0:45:52.200 --> 0:45:54.960 Not no, no, no no. I'm married to a real 0:45:55.040 --> 0:45:57.480 estate broker's ie. Realtors are the best people I know 0:45:57.560 --> 0:46:01.520 for sure. Let's let's segue a little bit. And that's 0:46:01.560 --> 0:46:04.560 the public safety element of that too. Speaking of property 0:46:04.560 --> 0:46:06.640 and like, of course we all witnessed what happened in 0:46:06.760 --> 0:46:10.960 Hyde Park Square relative to the coordinated communities playing there's 0:46:10.960 --> 0:46:13.879 a huge backlash that my friends who down in Hyde Park. 0:46:14.480 --> 0:46:16.520 I'm a pro development guy, but I get the fact 0:46:16.560 --> 0:46:18.000 that you have to have some skin in the game 0:46:18.000 --> 0:46:20.160 if you have a neighbor. We shouldn't completely look at 0:46:20.200 --> 0:46:22.240 neighbors and go, hey, they have final say on everything. 0:46:22.680 --> 0:46:24.760 I think it's an important and big seat at the table, 0:46:24.800 --> 0:46:27.080 but it's a big table. How do we make sure 0:46:27.120 --> 0:46:29.760 that doesn't happen again and at the same time encourage 0:46:29.960 --> 0:46:32.520 development in the city. If you solve the crime problem, 0:46:32.960 --> 0:46:34.919 that's going to go a long way. But there's also 0:46:34.920 --> 0:46:36.040 the development angle. 0:46:35.760 --> 0:46:38.160 Here too, correct. 0:46:38.280 --> 0:46:42.440 So it's funny that you bring bring that up because 0:46:42.480 --> 0:46:46.360 I'm sitting here in my office on Hyde Park Square, 0:46:46.480 --> 0:46:50.360 which really is it's the Clubal Banker building, which is 0:46:50.400 --> 0:46:56.080 ground zero for that particular development. And you know, I 0:46:56.600 --> 0:46:59.319 think to answer your question, I think it's just it 0:46:59.320 --> 0:47:03.680 does involve just some strategic engagement, some just some discussion 0:47:04.400 --> 0:47:08.400 and and and we're in getting to yes. I certainly 0:47:08.440 --> 0:47:11.320 feel like there is a deal to be made in 0:47:11.320 --> 0:47:16.280 in that equation. And certainly I'm also being in real estate, 0:47:16.400 --> 0:47:19.520 you know, pro development, and I certainly feel that that 0:47:19.760 --> 0:47:23.239 you know that there are buildings that have higher and 0:47:23.320 --> 0:47:25.320 there are a space that have higher and better usage 0:47:25.600 --> 0:47:27.920 that we can we can work with here. So I 0:47:27.920 --> 0:47:30.360 mean my bottom line is I feel like development and 0:47:30.400 --> 0:47:35.360 growth should enhance the neighborhood and not erase it, and 0:47:35.400 --> 0:47:38.640 certainly shouldn't just place people as much as possible. I mean, 0:47:38.719 --> 0:47:42.160 Cold World Bankers is a national company. You know, we're 0:47:42.200 --> 0:47:45.040 going to be okay, but you know, some of these 0:47:45.080 --> 0:47:48.560 smaller businesses may may not have as easy a time 0:47:48.600 --> 0:47:51.520 with with this particular particular thing, and I feel like 0:47:51.560 --> 0:47:54.360 that's an important thing to think about. I think another 0:47:54.400 --> 0:47:57.719 thing that to think about with that particular scenario is, 0:47:58.200 --> 0:48:01.480 you know the apartment buildings that are here now that 0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:04.680 actually is affordable housing. I mean that's you know, below 0:48:04.800 --> 0:48:07.920 market rate rent in Hyde Park. So I mean, I 0:48:08.000 --> 0:48:10.359 think if we're going to talk about, you know, if 0:48:10.360 --> 0:48:12.800 our city is going to talk about we need affordable housing, 0:48:12.960 --> 0:48:15.600 which obviously we hear a lot, you know, why are 0:48:15.640 --> 0:48:18.080 we why are we okay with getting rid of some 0:48:18.160 --> 0:48:20.960 of the last affordable housing that you might see in 0:48:21.239 --> 0:48:23.240 Hyde Park. And I may say that because it's below 0:48:23.239 --> 0:48:25.359 market rate rent, but it's just just something that maybe 0:48:25.400 --> 0:48:27.359 people haven't talked about in that issue, which I think 0:48:27.360 --> 0:48:29.000 is so important to talk about as well. 0:48:29.200 --> 0:48:32.000 Yeah, and I certainly neighbors need absolutely to have to 0:48:32.040 --> 0:48:33.719 have But but but I think if you and you've 0:48:33.719 --> 0:48:36.000 seen this in real estate with hoas and the smaller 0:48:36.040 --> 0:48:37.400 this is a bigger scale than that. But if you 0:48:37.480 --> 0:48:39.719 left it up basically to the neighbors to decide, I 0:48:39.719 --> 0:48:43.120 don't think you probably have any development going on, would you? 0:48:43.160 --> 0:48:45.520 No, absolutely not. I definitely feel like part of the 0:48:45.640 --> 0:48:48.160 part of that, part of that is part of that 0:48:48.400 --> 0:48:53.680 is maybe maybe tailoring exactly that's the feedback, so you know, 0:48:54.000 --> 0:48:56.560 we we here's the feedback, and here's the feedback in 0:48:56.600 --> 0:48:59.319 which in which you you know, what are your what 0:48:59.320 --> 0:49:01.440 are your main hot we're the three hot points, and 0:49:01.480 --> 0:49:04.799 how do we get to yes and not just not 0:49:04.960 --> 0:49:09.520 having this whole like broad, you know, broad discussion that 0:49:09.640 --> 0:49:11.480 might be one. They just sort of tailoring that, tailoring 0:49:11.480 --> 0:49:16.759 the different points. But also you know, I'm my my 0:49:16.800 --> 0:49:19.120 background is in real estate. I was just so I'm 0:49:19.239 --> 0:49:22.600 used to having another relator on the side, a buyer 0:49:22.640 --> 0:49:25.880 or seller. So you know, my my my whole goal 0:49:26.200 --> 0:49:29.839 is getting to yes. So I feel like you find 0:49:29.920 --> 0:49:32.560 you find the pain points, you find the places that 0:49:32.640 --> 0:49:35.480 you think you can find some you can find some agreement. 0:49:36.000 --> 0:49:38.320 Where is there some middle gramm where we can where 0:49:38.320 --> 0:49:42.279 we can grow or learn or or stretch. And I 0:49:42.320 --> 0:49:45.680 think ultimately, like in the perfect scenario, everyone feels like 0:49:45.719 --> 0:49:49.840 they've given a little more than maybe just like everyone 0:49:49.920 --> 0:49:54.600 gets compromised and we put a deal together that firsthand. 0:49:54.600 --> 0:49:56.759 And and there's sometimes where as you know in real 0:49:56.880 --> 0:49:59.320 estate deals, and sometimes you're you're miles and miles apart 0:49:59.360 --> 0:50:01.520 and literally will a few hours it all comes together. 0:50:01.560 --> 0:50:02.960 It's just it's the damnedest thing. 0:50:03.040 --> 0:50:06.080 But concessions have to be made, and that's being a 0:50:06.080 --> 0:50:08.640 good negotiator as you are Eron. That makes a lot 0:50:08.640 --> 0:50:10.160 of sense to me. It's kind of what the city needs. 0:50:10.320 --> 0:50:12.880 Final question for you is, voters go to the polls 0:50:12.880 --> 0:50:15.440 today here in the Buckeye stay till seven thirty, and 0:50:15.480 --> 0:50:17.719 it's Aaron Weiner on the show. One of the twenty 0:50:17.760 --> 0:50:20.440 six council candidates, maybe twenty five console candidates. You got 0:50:20.440 --> 0:50:23.279 one behind bars. I'll bank at twenty five, Aaron in 0:50:23.320 --> 0:50:25.680 this case. So how much has to change within the 0:50:25.719 --> 0:50:28.600 city and maybe in the mayor all race, We'll see 0:50:28.640 --> 0:50:30.600 what happens there. I think you have to have wins, 0:50:30.880 --> 0:50:33.040 but maybe a little closer than they likes. I think 0:50:33.080 --> 0:50:35.239 The consensus is going to be about what happens to 0:50:35.320 --> 0:50:38.320 council though, and how things the makeup of council changes. 0:50:38.400 --> 0:50:40.200 How much is going to have to change in council 0:50:40.440 --> 0:50:42.719 for you to get these things done? That's the big question. 0:50:42.840 --> 0:50:45.120 You may get elected, but are you pushing a boulder 0:50:45.200 --> 0:50:47.520 up the hill? 0:50:47.719 --> 0:50:49.800 Well, to be honest with you, I think that's certainly 0:50:49.880 --> 0:50:53.399 up to the voters, right, I mean, I think there's 0:50:53.480 --> 0:50:56.960 a different speculation on there's going to be two seats 0:50:56.960 --> 0:50:59.879 that might might come bake at three two three four. 0:51:01.280 --> 0:51:07.440 I think in order to have successful conversation, you have 0:51:07.560 --> 0:51:10.919 to have a balance of power. And I think if 0:51:10.960 --> 0:51:13.399 we can see a balance of power, and I think 0:51:13.440 --> 0:51:17.879 if we can see some more maturity. You know, I'm 0:51:17.920 --> 0:51:20.680 fifty six years old. I've had a lot of life experience. 0:51:21.000 --> 0:51:25.000 I've worked in both nonprofit as a volunteer. I run 0:51:25.040 --> 0:51:27.640 a successful business. I feel like if you get some 0:51:28.080 --> 0:51:33.120 maturity on council and you get some stronger personalities and 0:51:33.239 --> 0:51:37.319 maybe some different view points, maybe a little more centrist, 0:51:37.640 --> 0:51:40.640 maybe even someone who's a little more right, I feel 0:51:40.640 --> 0:51:42.880 like we'll have some more powerful conversations. 0:51:43.800 --> 0:51:45.680 Yeah, divided government is better. 0:51:45.719 --> 0:51:48.960 Real quick here if I'll let you go, Aaron, if 0:51:49.000 --> 0:51:51.759 you are in if you're on council and you're in 0:51:51.840 --> 0:51:54.560 council during the riot or during the rights, during the 0:51:55.600 --> 0:51:59.319 July twenty six beat down, the brawl, Fountain Square, what's 0:51:59.360 --> 0:52:01.480 happening in lift In and over the Ryne and elsewhere, 0:52:01.520 --> 0:52:05.320 but particular the firing Orriff Chriff Police Chief Terry Fiji. 0:52:05.800 --> 0:52:08.000 Would you ever spoken against the mayor? What do you 0:52:08.040 --> 0:52:10.120 have stepped up? Because no one in council. I'm saying 0:52:10.120 --> 0:52:12.200 maybe a couple of people I've had the show have 0:52:12.280 --> 0:52:14.600 stepped up and denounced the mayor and I was handled 0:52:14.600 --> 0:52:15.120 this whole thing. 0:52:15.320 --> 0:52:16.319 Would you have stepped up? 0:52:18.600 --> 0:52:18.840 You know? 0:52:19.280 --> 0:52:26.200 I mean, it's such a loaded question because again, my 0:52:26.200 --> 0:52:33.200 my career has been so much about collaboration and playing 0:52:33.320 --> 0:52:36.239 nice in the sandbox now, so I've never I've never 0:52:36.280 --> 0:52:45.400 been one to necessarily want to denounce someone publicly, so 0:52:45.560 --> 0:52:47.040 you know I'd have to, you know, I just want 0:52:47.120 --> 0:52:49.840 to say, I think, I think I think it's it's 0:52:49.880 --> 0:52:54.600 it's easy to play Monday morning quarterback and look back 0:52:54.640 --> 0:52:56.680 on how things would have gone. I definitely would have 0:52:56.760 --> 0:52:58.759 liked I would like to have a united front on 0:52:58.840 --> 0:53:08.600 an issue and have some strategic front procedure on it. 0:53:08.600 --> 0:53:14.200 It's not to say that I would not come at 0:53:14.400 --> 0:53:17.480 a council or a leader if I felt that what 0:53:17.520 --> 0:53:21.120 they were doing was wrong. Would it be publicly maybe, 0:53:21.160 --> 0:53:23.640 maybe not, would it be privately absolutely? 0:53:24.760 --> 0:53:27.920 Aaron Weiner, council candidate, pulls up until seven thirty. I 0:53:27.960 --> 0:53:30.520 wish you all the best luck in the world. We 0:53:30.560 --> 0:53:33.319 do need some change within those nine members. Guarantee at 0:53:33.360 --> 0:53:36.680 least one because Victoria Parks isn't running, she said, unrightly, 0:53:36.760 --> 0:53:38.799 so we'll fill a least one seat. But I wonder 0:53:38.840 --> 0:53:41.279 how many it's going to take in order for the 0:53:41.320 --> 0:53:43.960 administration to pay attention just how serious this crime issue is. 0:53:43.960 --> 0:53:46.800 Above all alls, Aaron Alli bet good luck today. 0:53:47.000 --> 0:53:48.680 Thank you, thanks the opportunity. 0:53:48.320 --> 0:53:48.640 You, sir. 0:53:48.840 --> 0:53:51.120 I've got to get a news update in and win 0:53:51.160 --> 0:53:52.759 a return will kind of maybe a little list, but 0:53:52.840 --> 0:53:55.960 rehash the nine o'clock hour and if you missed it. 0:53:56.000 --> 0:53:58.080 I had a discussion with the neighbor found the gun 0:53:58.080 --> 0:54:00.600 in front of Privy after the after the police had 0:54:00.600 --> 0:54:02.120 already left. There's a gun, Laine and they're like, well, 0:54:02.160 --> 0:54:04.279 kind of miss this. How that fits in the grand 0:54:04.280 --> 0:54:06.000 scheme of what we're talking about this election day. Scott's 0:54:06.000 --> 0:54:07.640 Thlan show continues next and we'll get your calls in 0:54:07.680 --> 0:54:13.560 as well. On seven hundred Scott flown here seven hundred 0:54:14.000 --> 0:54:16.680 l W. I'm sure hearing that the Logan Wilson dealt 0:54:16.680 --> 0:54:19.480 by the Bengals to the Dallas Cowboys for a seventh 0:54:19.560 --> 0:54:23.120 round draft pick on this decision day in more ways 0:54:23.120 --> 0:54:24.719 than one, not all of that to the deadline for 0:54:24.760 --> 0:54:27.839 the NFL and the deadline for voters today to get 0:54:27.880 --> 0:54:30.600 out and you have the seven thirty if you're in Ohio, 0:54:30.680 --> 0:54:33.000 bring an id Witchham and got a bunch of ballots 0:54:33.000 --> 0:54:35.120 and certainly a lot of levies issues. CPS has one 0:54:35.640 --> 0:54:38.439 probably talking to folks from CPS about that tomorrow. Things 0:54:38.440 --> 0:54:41.040 are looking good for that the interesting one, and I 0:54:41.040 --> 0:54:44.360 think the eyes of the region are on Sinday. Cincinnati. 0:54:44.360 --> 0:54:45.480 That's a little of the big one. 0:54:46.160 --> 0:54:46.319 Yeah. 0:54:46.600 --> 0:54:48.400 Yeah, Like I said, you've got some school levies and 0:54:48.440 --> 0:54:50.600 issues and school boards and stuff like that. But it's 0:54:50.600 --> 0:54:53.920 an off year election cycle and an important one though 0:54:53.920 --> 0:54:57.000 in Cincinnati because you have a mayoral race and you 0:54:57.080 --> 0:55:00.359 also have the council race. I think the mayor race 0:55:00.360 --> 0:55:01.960 have been saying it seems like that's a lock for 0:55:02.719 --> 0:55:05.640 Aftab just not if he wins, but how by much 0:55:05.680 --> 0:55:08.240 and what that means, what that message is narrow the margin, 0:55:09.160 --> 0:55:11.000 the more he's going to have to pay attention to 0:55:11.040 --> 0:55:14.480 what he's been ignoring. And that also changes his trajectory 0:55:14.520 --> 0:55:16.319 because clearly he is a guy who's in it for 0:55:16.400 --> 0:55:19.359 higher office than the mayor of Cincinnati. Kind of felt 0:55:19.360 --> 0:55:20.920 that way for a long time. There's a number of 0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:24.000 politicians are like that that they seems they're just biding 0:55:24.040 --> 0:55:26.160 their time to get a bite at a bigger apple, 0:55:26.360 --> 0:55:29.080 so to speak. But it has not been going well 0:55:29.160 --> 0:55:32.200 lately for him because, certainly on this show and others, 0:55:32.800 --> 0:55:35.120 we've been pretty much attacking him. Not because he's a Democrat, 0:55:35.160 --> 0:55:36.600 I know that's the thing is now, oh you're a 0:55:36.600 --> 0:55:39.319 Republican station and not actually true of more a libertarian, 0:55:39.360 --> 0:55:42.600 but not attacking him because he's a progressive or a Democrat. 0:55:42.640 --> 0:55:44.840 I'm at tagging him because of the policies and because 0:55:44.880 --> 0:55:47.480 what it has wrought. And this is the seeds that 0:55:47.480 --> 0:55:51.880 he sowed four years ago are now sprouting and quite 0:55:51.920 --> 0:55:54.440 only turning into weeds. At this point, thought that they 0:55:54.520 --> 0:55:56.400 may be flowers, but it turns out a lot of 0:55:56.440 --> 0:55:59.120 its weeds, and the weeds, of course, are the problem 0:55:59.440 --> 0:56:01.520 of crime. And those weeds have grown to the point 0:56:01.560 --> 0:56:03.080 where they get their tentacles or on the heart of 0:56:03.080 --> 0:56:05.160 the city at this point, and it's choking it out. 0:56:05.800 --> 0:56:07.640 First hour of the show this morning at nine oh six. 0:56:07.719 --> 0:56:09.319 If he missed it, you can catch it on the 0:56:09.360 --> 0:56:12.000 podcast following the show at the twelve o'clock today. 0:56:12.000 --> 0:56:12.879 So listen to it as. 0:56:12.800 --> 0:56:15.120 A and I had him on and people are like, well, 0:56:15.160 --> 0:56:16.880 how do we know who it is as a real person? 0:56:16.920 --> 0:56:17.920 Is it not fame made up? 0:56:18.480 --> 0:56:22.200 It's a neighbor who lives literally steps away from Privy, 0:56:22.200 --> 0:56:25.719 the nightclub, the last example of the bloodiness that is Cincinnati, 0:56:25.800 --> 0:56:29.319 the senseless violence at Cincinnati, and he lives right there. 0:56:29.360 --> 0:56:33.120 He is a real estate guy himself speaking of you know, 0:56:33.160 --> 0:56:35.600 we just had on here in Aaron Weiner, council candidate, 0:56:35.640 --> 0:56:37.840 realtor had some good ideas I think to try and 0:56:37.880 --> 0:56:41.520 get cops staying but also coming to the city of Cincinnati. 0:56:43.360 --> 0:56:46.040 But in this case, a guy who's developing the neighborhood. 0:56:46.080 --> 0:56:49.080 He's you know, renting, fixing places up, renting them out 0:56:49.239 --> 0:56:51.440 so you got some affordable housing, probably get some retail 0:56:51.440 --> 0:56:53.520 on stuff down there. His skin in the game and 0:56:53.640 --> 0:56:56.120 lives there. And he was on in the first hour 0:56:56.120 --> 0:57:00.080 of the show this morning describing what life is like 0:57:00.160 --> 0:57:02.680 down there now. And it's about Privy because it's in 0:57:02.719 --> 0:57:05.680 the backyard. But I think Privy is emblematic of the 0:57:05.719 --> 0:57:09.359 problem overall because he mentioned that, you know, years ago, 0:57:09.680 --> 0:57:12.320 you didn't have much downtown before Rhinegeist was rhein Geist 0:57:12.400 --> 0:57:14.400 and all those things, and so the wonderful development that 0:57:14.440 --> 0:57:16.320 he's a part of, and now he feels like it's 0:57:16.320 --> 0:57:19.520 slipping away. You know, if you're the person. And there's 0:57:19.680 --> 0:57:23.960 countless people, countless hundreds of people who do what he did, 0:57:24.040 --> 0:57:25.920 and that is they buy some property. They had an 0:57:25.960 --> 0:57:28.320 opportunity to buy low and maybe sell high. That's American dream. 0:57:28.360 --> 0:57:30.600 That's how he made money, put his own hard work 0:57:30.920 --> 0:57:34.560 and savings into buying properties, and that led to other 0:57:34.600 --> 0:57:37.320 properties and so on and so forth. And everything that 0:57:37.440 --> 0:57:39.200 was promised to him is like, hey, come down, you 0:57:39.200 --> 0:57:41.280 can get you can get a parcel of land, you 0:57:41.280 --> 0:57:43.000 can get a vacant building at a market or a 0:57:43.160 --> 0:57:46.440 lesson market rate. Place will incentivize you to develop it 0:57:46.520 --> 0:57:48.840 and build it in three CDC's involved on that great stuff, 0:57:48.840 --> 0:57:51.080 and we had we had this great renaissance in Cincinnati 0:57:51.320 --> 0:57:53.320 not that long ago, and you feel like it's all 0:57:53.400 --> 0:57:56.440 in jeopardy because of an unchecked criminal element, simply because 0:57:57.520 --> 0:58:00.400 we got too complacent when it came to crime. One 0:58:00.400 --> 0:58:02.480 of those was, hey, we've got enough cops. We don't 0:58:02.520 --> 0:58:05.200 need anymore. Things seem to be going well, So why 0:58:05.200 --> 0:58:07.480 are we spending all this money on fighting crime? Well, okay, 0:58:07.520 --> 0:58:09.520 see what happens when you ease your foot off the 0:58:09.520 --> 0:58:11.800 gas a little bit, and then you have policies, And 0:58:11.840 --> 0:58:13.560 this is where I would attack after abound. 0:58:13.600 --> 0:58:14.480 It's the policies. 0:58:15.400 --> 0:58:18.080 The policies are that we're going to not go after 0:58:18.160 --> 0:58:21.320 individuals because we feel that criminals are victims too. 0:58:21.360 --> 0:58:22.480 That's not true. They're criminals. 0:58:23.640 --> 0:58:26.080 And there's so many good people of all different walks 0:58:26.080 --> 0:58:30.240 of life, socioeconomic, race, creed, and color. It's not about them. 0:58:30.280 --> 0:58:34.080 It's a good people versus the predators out there. And 0:58:34.160 --> 0:58:35.720 I have a sense that the people in front of 0:58:35.720 --> 0:58:38.680 Privy are predators. Does it make a lot of sense 0:58:38.720 --> 0:58:40.520 that you shoot up a nightclub because you can't. I 0:58:40.560 --> 0:58:44.600 just doesn't make any sense. And it's disturbing because it's 0:58:44.640 --> 0:58:46.440 a quality of life issue, no, and it's also a 0:58:46.440 --> 0:58:48.520 public safe The public safety is huge, right, It's like 0:58:48.600 --> 0:58:51.560 one of the three big things that local governments and 0:58:51.600 --> 0:58:53.920 control of, you know, certainly the streets and the sidewalks 0:58:53.920 --> 0:58:57.520 and keeping the snow cleared, removing the trash. The other 0:58:57.560 --> 0:58:59.520 one is the biggest one is public safety. And if 0:58:59.560 --> 0:59:02.800 there's a p that you're not safe, you're not going 0:59:02.800 --> 0:59:05.440 to see people invest in downtown and OTR in these neighborhoods. 0:59:05.480 --> 0:59:09.160 And we need more development, not less, because we continue 0:59:09.200 --> 0:59:12.120 and continue to fall behind. And so you don't think 0:59:12.120 --> 0:59:14.400 the war is lost, but they've set it up so 0:59:14.560 --> 0:59:18.720 much by this hands off, feel good policies that it 0:59:18.760 --> 0:59:20.520 has led to where we are right now. I'm just 0:59:20.600 --> 0:59:23.200 curious as a voter, if you're there voting today, I've 0:59:23.240 --> 0:59:25.400 voted that you're going to take this out maybe on 0:59:25.480 --> 0:59:27.040 the mayor maybe you won't vote, But I think there's 0:59:27.040 --> 0:59:29.640 a lot you know, most most of Cincinnati, you're a Democrat, 0:59:29.640 --> 0:59:33.280 you're progressive. You're not going to not vote for maybe 0:59:33.320 --> 0:59:35.000 you don't vote for AFTAB. You're probably not going to 0:59:35.040 --> 0:59:39.040 vote for Corey Bowman because he's a Republican. I understand that, 0:59:40.080 --> 0:59:42.840 but at the same time, I wonder what level accountability 0:59:42.880 --> 0:59:43.840 you hold the members of council. 0:59:43.920 --> 0:59:44.720 That'll be the big one. 0:59:45.160 --> 0:59:47.720 And there's nine seats up for grabs with twenty six 0:59:47.720 --> 0:59:50.760 people going for it, and I wonder at least one 0:59:50.800 --> 0:59:53.360 because Victoria Parks is running anymore, so there's one seat. 0:59:53.400 --> 0:59:55.360 But you wonder how many more people get displaced on 0:59:55.400 --> 0:59:58.760 council because the voters are frustrated and scared for that matter. 0:59:58.800 --> 1:00:01.160 And I don't blame you at all for that. This morning, 1:00:01.320 --> 1:00:02.840 as I said, at nine oh six, I had on 1:00:02.920 --> 1:00:05.920 the neighbor who found the gun in front of Privy 1:00:06.000 --> 1:00:09.120 or next to Privy anyway, and just kind of edited 1:00:09.200 --> 1:00:10.440 up a little bit so you can get idea if 1:00:10.480 --> 1:00:12.960 you missed that. Here is our conversation from about nine 1:00:13.000 --> 1:00:15.080 this morning. Again it's on the podcast I'll following after 1:00:15.080 --> 1:00:17.440 the show.

I'm 1:00:26.800 --> 1:00:27.680 glad to be talking to you. 1:00:27.720 --> 1:00:29.560 I appreciate you. What's your take on a US. 1:00:31.440 --> 1:00:34.520 I'm more so, Okay, I miss I missed the prompt, 1:00:34.680 --> 1:00:37.560 so I just tuned in on the part where the 1:00:37.640 --> 1:00:39.080 guy called something about m Street. 1:00:39.240 --> 1:00:40.680 Right, Yeah, you're. 1:00:40.520 --> 1:00:41.320 Talking about. 1:00:42.640 --> 1:00:45.120 This is a guy who lives like literally steps away 1:00:45.120 --> 1:00:47.200 from the from Privy nightclub. He's a guy that found 1:00:47.200 --> 1:00:49.960 the gun in the grass after the shooting on Saturday. 1:00:50.200 --> 1:00:51.520 And then this is after the investigation. 1:00:52.880 --> 1:00:57.480 Oh wow, Okay, I was more so. I want to 1:00:57.520 --> 1:01:00.720 say that a lot of people over the Rye, right 1:01:01.640 --> 1:01:05.440 and kind of grew kind of grew up in over 1:01:05.480 --> 1:01:09.640 the Rhyn, right. I do have conservative views, if that's okay. 1:01:09.760 --> 1:01:16.800 And yeah, a lot of people who have done any 1:01:16.800 --> 1:01:19.280 dirt down here, they don't live down here, if that 1:01:19.280 --> 1:01:21.080 makes sense. I heard I heard them say something about 1:01:21.360 --> 1:01:23.360 just torking on the cars and all of that. When 1:01:23.360 --> 1:01:25.280 you ap off the park once you see those people. 1:01:25.880 --> 1:01:27.680 You don't see those teenagers at the park because their 1:01:27.720 --> 1:01:29.400 mom don't play, right, because we do still have six 1:01:29.480 --> 1:01:32.920 and eight down here, right, So a lot of people 1:01:33.000 --> 1:01:35.360 who come down here to do their dirt, to do 1:01:35.440 --> 1:01:38.960 their violence, they don't live down here. They catch the 1:01:39.040 --> 1:01:43.000 bus to come down here to cause havoc in our 1:01:43.000 --> 1:01:46.200 neighborhood and it's unacceptable, right, And. 1:01:47.240 --> 1:01:48.200 Well, yeah, I mean think about it. 1:01:48.240 --> 1:01:50.320 You know, you're not living that there's that club and 1:01:50.360 --> 1:01:52.720 it caters to a certain clientele that because there's so 1:01:52.800 --> 1:01:54.840 few people that are willing to do that. And let's 1:01:54.880 --> 1:01:57.960 face it, I mean, Sarah, you know, there's a reason 1:01:58.000 --> 1:02:01.160 why that element has attracted that club is because maybe 1:02:01.200 --> 1:02:03.240 they're looking the other way. Maybe you know, I know this, 1:02:03.320 --> 1:02:07.440 he's okay, hey, come in, you have weapons, you have drugs, 1:02:07.440 --> 1:02:09.520 you have god knows what you're getting in there. It's 1:02:09.520 --> 1:02:11.560 gonna attract that kind of element because you know, the 1:02:11.600 --> 1:02:14.360 word gets around that they're cool at at at Privy 1:02:14.760 --> 1:02:17.479 and so this brings that element there. And it's gonna 1:02:17.480 --> 1:02:20.040 bring people with their cars. It's gonna because you said, buses, whatever, 1:02:20.080 --> 1:02:22.400 somebody's gonna ride and where this is the spot we're 1:02:22.440 --> 1:02:24.240 going to this and and that's going to attract all 1:02:24.280 --> 1:02:25.240 that from all around the city. 1:02:26.680 --> 1:02:29.920 That you know what that that is, that is true? 1:02:30.400 --> 1:02:32.080 That is that is true to a certain extent. 1:02:32.400 --> 1:02:32.600 You know. 1:02:32.680 --> 1:02:35.880 But when you also when we come down here to 1:02:35.920 --> 1:02:39.240 live down here, we have to we we don't want 1:02:39.280 --> 1:02:42.160 to write. But we have to expect, uh sort of 1:02:42.160 --> 1:02:46.240 that sort of that element because this, this neighborhood isn't 1:02:46.280 --> 1:02:48.400 known to be the best, right And like you said, 1:02:48.440 --> 1:02:51.520 people are coming from everywhere to invest in down here. 1:02:51.600 --> 1:02:54.480 They have to understand that a lot of this stuff 1:02:55.520 --> 1:02:57.479 and I'm also convinced that a lot of this isn't 1:02:57.520 --> 1:03:00.360 going to change either, right, Like I feel bad for 1:03:00.440 --> 1:03:02.560 the police chief because she did come out and I 1:03:02.560 --> 1:03:05.120 heard it on WEBN, she did come out and say 1:03:05.200 --> 1:03:08.720 that she didn't have enough cops who patrol. Because I 1:03:08.800 --> 1:03:12.160 lived right where a sixteen year old got shot someone 1:03:12.200 --> 1:03:16.280 else got shot on next to Tinis. I live near there. 1:03:16.320 --> 1:03:20.200 So it's just sad, and it's horrible because it is 1:03:20.200 --> 1:03:24.120 a beautiful neighborhood. Whether it's we're we're some mixed neighborhood, right, 1:03:24.400 --> 1:03:26.520 it is a beautiful neighborhood. And those of us who 1:03:26.560 --> 1:03:29.280 live down here, even the Section eight people, even us 1:03:29.280 --> 1:03:31.880 who like myself, work every day five days a week 1:03:32.160 --> 1:03:35.880 and go to work and come home, we we like. 1:03:36.600 --> 1:03:38.280 I sense, you know, And here's the thing here, I 1:03:38.840 --> 1:03:40.160 feel you frustrated as well. 1:03:40.200 --> 1:03:41.800 It's like this is not you know, We've got those 1:03:41.840 --> 1:03:43.600 the visitors in the city and it's black and it's 1:03:43.600 --> 1:03:45.480 white and all this and it's not It's like there's 1:03:45.520 --> 1:03:47.800 good people and bad people. It's like, what the hell 1:03:47.880 --> 1:03:49.960 is so hard about You call nine one one and 1:03:49.960 --> 1:03:52.600 they're you know, playing their blaring music and drinking liquor 1:03:52.640 --> 1:03:54.600 on car hoods at three o'clock in the morning, four 1:03:54.640 --> 1:03:57.200 o'clock mark, How hard is that to run those people 1:03:57.200 --> 1:03:57.720 off of there? 1:03:58.000 --> 1:03:58.080 That? 1:03:58.280 --> 1:03:59.640 And you know, we don't have enough cops, you know, 1:03:59.680 --> 1:04:01.760 like a h fifty cops short, they don't have time 1:04:01.800 --> 1:04:02.120 for that. 1:04:02.760 --> 1:04:04.360 But it's also the policies. 1:04:05.800 --> 1:04:06.800 I think they're scared. 1:04:07.200 --> 1:04:08.800 Yeah, maybe maybe too. 1:04:09.520 --> 1:04:12.680 I think our police are nervous to come and come 1:04:12.720 --> 1:04:14.959 out to calls because they typically don't know, like you 1:04:15.080 --> 1:04:17.680 get disturb dis order allowed if it's loud, they're not 1:04:17.680 --> 1:04:20.280 coming up. I've heard shots before, Nick, and I'll literally 1:04:20.320 --> 1:04:22.080 put look at my park and they take about an 1:04:22.080 --> 1:04:23.160 hour and a half before. 1:04:23.240 --> 1:04:25.040 Yeah, they just back. And the problem is that they're 1:04:25.040 --> 1:04:25.440 backed up. 1:04:25.440 --> 1:04:27.920 And that is because like when you treat a criminals 1:04:27.960 --> 1:04:31.080 like they're victims in this whole feel good nonsense, this 1:04:31.120 --> 1:04:32.760 is what you wind up getting. I mean, they're bad 1:04:32.760 --> 1:04:35.320 people in the world of all stripes like, I don't 1:04:35.320 --> 1:04:37.920 know why it's so damn hard just to take the people, 1:04:37.960 --> 1:04:40.520 regardless of what they look like, or what gender they 1:04:40.520 --> 1:04:42.880 are or or I don't care. It's if you're doing 1:04:42.880 --> 1:04:46.040 bad stuff, you're you're you're wreaking havoc and ruining your neighborhood. 1:04:46.120 --> 1:04:47.840 You gotta get the hell out of there. Knock it off. 1:04:47.840 --> 1:04:49.880 It's not that hard. I appreciate. 1:04:50.800 --> 1:04:53.960 Well, guys, cut off there, all right. Let me let 1:04:53.960 --> 1:04:56.480 me get the audio in here again. From about nine 1:04:56.480 --> 1:04:58.840 oh six, had the guy on the show the neighbor 1:04:58.840 --> 1:05:01.280 who found the gun, because I was asking him about 1:05:01.280 --> 1:05:03.800 what time he actually found the gun in the morning 1:05:03.800 --> 1:05:04.680 when he's out looking. 1:05:07.240 --> 1:05:10.400 Probably nine am. I didn't even know a shooting had happened. 1:05:10.840 --> 1:05:14.000 I was waking up of Sunday morning. I was walking 1:05:14.000 --> 1:05:16.280 down the street and when I walked by the first 1:05:16.320 --> 1:05:19.160 time I made a video, I'd just taken a video. 1:05:19.400 --> 1:05:22.400 We can't stand privy because it's just been one thing. 1:05:22.280 --> 1:05:23.880 After the next, after the next at the next. 1:05:23.920 --> 1:05:25.680 So I took a little video just to show like 1:05:25.920 --> 1:05:28.600 the trash that was outside. Yeah, you know, I thought 1:05:28.600 --> 1:05:28.840 that it. 1:05:28.920 --> 1:05:31.040 Was going to be a good video to have to 1:05:31.040 --> 1:05:32.840 show like hey, at the end of the night, this 1:05:32.960 --> 1:05:33.760 is how they leave. 1:05:33.640 --> 1:05:36.280 This place, and like this is just one of the 1:05:36.400 --> 1:05:39.200 fifty reasons why, like we hate having to miss a neighbor. 1:05:39.720 --> 1:05:42.600 And to turn the corner in my video into the 1:05:42.640 --> 1:05:45.400 alley right in front of, you know, the establishment, and 1:05:45.440 --> 1:05:47.040 there was like looked like a murder scene. Like it 1:05:47.080 --> 1:05:49.840 was just like a giant pool of blood. And so 1:05:49.920 --> 1:05:51.600 that was the first time I was like, Okay, what 1:05:51.680 --> 1:05:54.560 happened to here last night? And I got on the 1:05:54.560 --> 1:05:57.800 Citizen app and I saw that four people had gotten shot. 1:05:58.280 --> 1:06:00.800 Kind of looked at the Citizen app to where the 1:06:00.840 --> 1:06:04.160 shooting looked like it took place, and I just walked 1:06:04.200 --> 1:06:06.160 over there and just sitting right on the grass was 1:06:06.160 --> 1:06:09.439 a handgun And so I didn't really try to look. 1:06:09.560 --> 1:06:11.600 I just just was just sitting right there. 1:06:12.440 --> 1:06:15.320 And so I called the cops and said, hey, like, 1:06:15.400 --> 1:06:17.120 I don't know if you guys like we need to 1:06:17.200 --> 1:06:19.640 look for this, but like the pistols sitting right here, 1:06:20.040 --> 1:06:23.400 it's directly this is a whole other topic. But like 1:06:23.480 --> 1:06:26.840 I saw some of the security footage. I actually went 1:06:26.880 --> 1:06:30.280 and talked to the owner who I've met a few times, 1:06:30.840 --> 1:06:33.040 and he like showed me some of the security footage, 1:06:33.080 --> 1:06:36.280 and like the video is crystal clear, and so if 1:06:36.280 --> 1:06:37.960 they don't make an arrest on this, like I have 1:06:38.040 --> 1:06:39.080 no idea what we're doing. 1:06:40.240 --> 1:06:42.080 How many feet would you say from where you found 1:06:42.080 --> 1:06:44.400 the gun was in proximity to the to the front 1:06:44.400 --> 1:06:45.000 door of the club. 1:06:46.120 --> 1:06:49.560 So the shooting happened on the I guess it'd be 1:06:49.600 --> 1:06:51.520 the north end of Privy. 1:06:51.560 --> 1:06:52.240 There's a door. 1:06:52.760 --> 1:06:54.920 From what he said, there was a group of individuals 1:06:55.000 --> 1:06:57.640 that were trying to come into the club and they 1:06:57.640 --> 1:07:01.160 didn't want to be searched. I'll give you this, Privy 1:07:01.320 --> 1:07:05.840 does have really impressive security, but it's the security is 1:07:05.880 --> 1:07:08.760 so impressive that it realizes how it makes you realize 1:07:08.760 --> 1:07:09.560 how alarming it is. 1:07:09.840 --> 1:07:12.320 Like these guys have bulletproof vests on. They look like 1:07:12.360 --> 1:07:13.440 swat swat gear. 1:07:14.200 --> 1:07:16.600 Yeah, a couple of guys in tactical gear. Looks like 1:07:16.600 --> 1:07:19.280 they're headed into war as opposed to the front end 1:07:19.240 --> 1:07:20.560 of the place I want to go have not the 1:07:20.560 --> 1:07:21.720 place I want to go have beer. 1:07:21.960 --> 1:07:23.200 What about the shooters? 1:07:23.560 --> 1:07:24.040 I saw them. 1:07:24.120 --> 1:07:27.160 They looked like they were twenty five ish years old. 1:07:27.160 --> 1:07:29.680 There's maybe five or six guys they didn't want to 1:07:29.680 --> 1:07:31.520 get searched. At the front door, so they went over 1:07:31.560 --> 1:07:34.280 to the side door, and then they got really mad 1:07:34.400 --> 1:07:36.960 like when they couldn't get in. And so I don't 1:07:37.000 --> 1:07:38.600 know this series of events, but it sounds like they 1:07:38.760 --> 1:07:43.840 literally just started shooting at the building, which is insane, 1:07:44.360 --> 1:07:45.800 and it just kind of shows you the kind of 1:07:45.800 --> 1:07:50.400 people that Privy is drawing literally to my sideyard. 1:07:51.200 --> 1:07:52.479 That was from nine oh six this morning. 1:07:52.640 --> 1:07:54.520 If you missed one, here the whole discussion, it'll be 1:07:54.560 --> 1:07:57.960 available on the podcast via iHeartRadio app for free, so 1:07:58.000 --> 1:07:59.760 you can download that listen to your own time or 1:07:59.840 --> 1:08:02.080 just to you know, check it out then. But on 1:08:02.200 --> 1:08:04.160 this and the reasons anonymous because while he has a 1:08:04.200 --> 1:08:07.760 fear of retribution from those people who frequent and own 1:08:08.160 --> 1:08:10.400 that particular club, it's a problem. It's problem invested in 1:08:10.440 --> 1:08:12.800 the neighborhood, has seen and then put a lot of 1:08:12.840 --> 1:08:16.800 his own money and hard work into affordable housing and 1:08:16.960 --> 1:08:18.920 bringing the neighborhood up, and now it's being torn apart 1:08:18.960 --> 1:08:20.880 because we don't have cops to run people off when 1:08:20.880 --> 1:08:24.639 they're partying after hours around there, drinking, talking on cars, 1:08:24.680 --> 1:08:26.280 that kind of stuff, that kind of scene. It's a 1:08:26.320 --> 1:08:29.000 mess down there. And of course today being election day. 1:08:29.200 --> 1:08:30.720 You would think that there's some sort of wake up 1:08:30.760 --> 1:08:33.840 call from the voters of Cincinnati. Whatever that looks like. 1:08:34.200 --> 1:08:38.040 It's going to be interesting to have this discussion tomorrow. Yeah, 1:08:38.080 --> 1:08:40.200 and you know, I feel for you if you live 1:08:40.200 --> 1:08:43.599 in the city right now. I wonder if the interesting 1:08:43.600 --> 1:08:46.839 part is going to be starting tomorrow after the elections, 1:08:46.840 --> 1:08:49.000 when the when the dust cells and smokes clear, do 1:08:49.120 --> 1:08:51.280 they change tech or they just simply go, hey, you 1:08:51.280 --> 1:08:54.040 know what we want re election, win our seats. We're 1:08:54.080 --> 1:08:55.840 going to continue the way things are. We're fine, no 1:08:55.920 --> 1:08:59.200 retribution whatsoever. We don't feel it from the voters. A 1:08:59.240 --> 1:09:00.840 lot on the line to for share in the city. 1:09:00.880 --> 1:09:02.840 Scott Sloan Show and the Home of the best Bengals coverage, 1:09:02.840 --> 1:09:04.880 seven hundred W AL Don't want to. 1:09:04.840 --> 1:09:09.080 Be an American idiot, The Scott Sloane Show, seven hundred WLW. 1:09:09.240 --> 1:09:09.679 Good morning. 1:09:10.720 --> 1:09:14.000 Today is election day, of course in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana. 1:09:14.439 --> 1:09:18.000 Don't forget the id I've been talking about the passing 1:09:18.080 --> 1:09:20.840 of President Dick Cheney, vice President sorry Dick Cheney, so 1:09:20.840 --> 1:09:24.000 I may say president, but vice President Dick Cheney. And 1:09:24.080 --> 1:09:27.960 it also marks today a very interesting anniversary. The Iranian 1:09:27.960 --> 1:09:29.960 hostage crisis. He may not have been around when this 1:09:30.080 --> 1:09:31.880 was going down. I was a little kid, but vaguely 1:09:31.880 --> 1:09:36.040 remember this and specifically our attempt to rescue the fifty 1:09:36.160 --> 1:09:41.040 hostages taken by the Islamic militants in Tehran back in 1:09:41.120 --> 1:09:44.040 nineteen seventy nine that stretched into nineteen eighty and impacted 1:09:44.040 --> 1:09:47.559 the nineteen eighty presidential campaign. And Ben McIntyre's here writes 1:09:47.560 --> 1:09:50.280 about this in the siege and obviously some parallels here 1:09:50.280 --> 1:09:52.559 to what is transpiring our hass transferred, i should say, 1:09:52.560 --> 1:09:54.120 in Israel with Amas and hostage is there. 1:09:54.200 --> 1:09:54.960 Ben, Welcome to the show. 1:09:54.960 --> 1:09:57.280 Good morning, Thank you very much, great to be honest. 1:09:57.360 --> 1:09:59.840 Yeah, so the backstory here history. 1:10:00.120 --> 1:10:03.280 You know, if we think radical Islam, Islam is something new, 1:10:03.320 --> 1:10:05.599 I mean we really saw this in the late nineteen 1:10:05.640 --> 1:10:08.840 seven mind to Night, late nineteen seventies, culminating with the 1:10:09.000 --> 1:10:12.320 taking of fifty Americans, including a Cincinnatian, held hostage at 1:10:12.320 --> 1:10:15.479 our embassy in Iran. And it went on forever. And 1:10:15.520 --> 1:10:19.719 this is really what sunk Jimmy Carter in his quest 1:10:19.720 --> 1:10:21.639 for a second Hearin, the economy was banned, a lot 1:10:21.640 --> 1:10:23.599 of the things he's worried about. Peace in the Middle 1:10:23.640 --> 1:10:25.760 East and all this. But to me that you know, 1:10:25.840 --> 1:10:29.320 watching the news, and that was when you had three channels. 1:10:29.360 --> 1:10:31.640 Maybe you watch the news and it would be a 1:10:31.680 --> 1:10:34.559 steady drumbeat in the account of Okay, it's one hundred days, 1:10:34.560 --> 1:10:36.240 it's two hundred days, and it kept going on and 1:10:36.240 --> 1:10:38.559 on and on. That were really in the eyes of America, 1:10:38.560 --> 1:10:40.519 made him look even weaker than he already was, and 1:10:40.600 --> 1:10:42.360 ultimately ushered in Ronald. 1:10:42.080 --> 1:10:43.880 Reagan, that is right. 1:10:44.960 --> 1:10:50.200 And simultaneously, six days after the failed attempt to rescue 1:10:50.240 --> 1:10:54.720 the American hostages in Tehran, Operation the Eagle Claw, which ended, 1:10:54.760 --> 1:10:58.120 as you say, in disaster, it was a calamity, six 1:10:58.240 --> 1:11:04.960 days later, six Iranian Arabs attacked the Iranian embassy in London. 1:11:05.400 --> 1:11:07.920 There's an almost direct parallel going on here. One of 1:11:07.960 --> 1:11:11.599 the reasons why they decided to attack the Iranian embassy 1:11:11.680 --> 1:11:14.360 was because it was representative of the Iranian regime. These 1:11:14.400 --> 1:11:18.160 were militant Arabs who were opposed to the Ayatollah and 1:11:18.200 --> 1:11:22.519 the new fundamentalists in Tehran, and they selected the Iranian 1:11:22.520 --> 1:11:25.600 embassy in London as the best thing to attack, and 1:11:25.640 --> 1:11:30.360 it set off an astonishing kind of parallel hostage situation here. 1:11:30.439 --> 1:11:34.680 Because inside that building were twenty six people, some of 1:11:34.720 --> 1:11:38.080 them British citizens in fact, which the gunmen were not expecting. 1:11:38.400 --> 1:11:39.240 Most of them. 1:11:39.080 --> 1:11:42.800 Were employees of the Iranian embassy and representatives of the 1:11:42.840 --> 1:11:47.360 Eyeoler's regime, and it became a huge parallel problem for 1:11:47.479 --> 1:11:48.639 the international community. 1:11:48.960 --> 1:11:50.920 The American side of this thing is I think we 1:11:50.960 --> 1:11:52.920 didn't pay as much attention to that as we did 1:11:52.960 --> 1:11:55.240 the Operation Eagle Claw. I think, as was called when 1:11:55.240 --> 1:11:58.240 the helicopter crash killed eight servicemen in an attempt to 1:11:58.720 --> 1:12:01.839 rescue the hostages. Revera few of the hostages from from Tehran, 1:12:02.320 --> 1:12:04.479 and it's not because of the Shah of Iran. So 1:12:04.520 --> 1:12:07.439 the Shah was basically our guy in Tehran. We can 1:12:07.760 --> 1:12:09.600 know he certainly had a lot of influence in the 1:12:09.600 --> 1:12:12.800 way we backed his regime, and all of a sudden 1:12:12.840 --> 1:12:14.600 he had to escape came to the United States. I 1:12:14.600 --> 1:12:17.439 think subsequently that of cancer, if I'm not mistaken. But 1:12:17.560 --> 1:12:19.120 the end result, there was a lot of this wake 1:12:19.200 --> 1:12:22.200 in this this power vacuum in Iran and Tehran that 1:12:22.320 --> 1:12:23.679 led to the hostage has been taken. 1:12:23.800 --> 1:12:26.240 That is, that is correct, And of course in nineteen 1:12:26.280 --> 1:12:29.840 eighty it was still incredibly unstable in Iran. You know, 1:12:30.040 --> 1:12:33.479 the regime had not fully established itself, and it had 1:12:33.520 --> 1:12:37.560 also awoken lots of expectations among people who had supported 1:12:37.600 --> 1:12:42.439 the revolution, including the Horab minority in the southwest, who 1:12:42.560 --> 1:12:46.600 were keen for more political rights, who wanted political representation, 1:12:46.960 --> 1:12:49.439 that is the oil rich part of Iran, that's the 1:12:49.479 --> 1:12:53.360 southwest and Kusev done. And what happened was exactly the 1:12:53.400 --> 1:12:55.960 reverse that instead of providing the Arabs. 1:12:55.640 --> 1:12:59.600 With more rights and more more more. 1:12:59.600 --> 1:13:02.280 Opportun communities in the wake of the Fulham, the Shah, 1:13:02.680 --> 1:13:07.400 actually the Iotola clamped down brutally on those Arabs, creating 1:13:07.720 --> 1:13:10.599 a major problem because what that resulted in was a 1:13:10.720 --> 1:13:13.559 very militant guerrilla movement on the part of the Arabs 1:13:13.840 --> 1:13:18.320 in Iran, backed by Saddam Hussein. That is the point 1:13:18.320 --> 1:13:21.160 of this element of the story is that Saddam Hussein 1:13:21.360 --> 1:13:24.559 and his then terrorist advisor A mangled Abu ni Dahal 1:13:25.240 --> 1:13:30.080 were training Arabs in and around Baghdad to attack Iran, 1:13:30.120 --> 1:13:34.080 to attack different Iranian targets, oil fields, police stations, and 1:13:34.400 --> 1:13:36.719 in this case, the Iranian embassy in London. 1:13:37.000 --> 1:13:39.240 So what you have taking place in London at. 1:13:39.160 --> 1:13:41.360 The same time as the hostage crisis is taking place 1:13:41.400 --> 1:13:46.000 in Tehran is really the first battle of the looming 1:13:46.160 --> 1:13:49.040 Iran Iraq War, because that is coming in a few 1:13:49.160 --> 1:13:51.960 months after this, Iran and Iraq go to war. More 1:13:51.960 --> 1:13:55.800 than a million people die in that appalling eight year conflict. 1:13:56.320 --> 1:13:58.519 But the first element of that, and that conflict of. 1:13:58.479 --> 1:14:02.040 Course would have huge effects, huge ramifications going down to 1:14:02.120 --> 1:14:04.720 going down the years, but that all started that that 1:14:05.040 --> 1:14:07.519 moment begins in this conflict in London. 1:14:07.600 --> 1:14:10.000 So the Sixth Day Siege. 1:14:09.760 --> 1:14:13.479 This extraordinary sort of standoff that takes place in London, 1:14:13.960 --> 1:14:16.680 is really a battle, sort of proxy battle between the 1:14:16.720 --> 1:14:17.559 Iran and Iraq. 1:14:18.360 --> 1:14:19.760 The Iran Iraq war, of. 1:14:19.720 --> 1:14:23.320 Course, destabilizes the whole of the Middle East, and from 1:14:23.360 --> 1:14:24.519 there you get to. 1:14:25.000 --> 1:14:26.960 The Gulf Wars, you get to. 1:14:26.920 --> 1:14:30.960 The Afghan situation, the invasion of Afghanistan, and eventually you get. 1:14:30.840 --> 1:14:31.639 To nine to eleven. 1:14:31.840 --> 1:14:34.439 So this in a way is one of the founding moments, 1:14:34.479 --> 1:14:38.479 along with the hostage crisis in Tehran. For America, this 1:14:38.640 --> 1:14:41.479 is a key moment. The other thing to know about 1:14:41.520 --> 1:14:45.880 the Iranian embassy crisis here in London was that it 1:14:45.960 --> 1:14:48.800 was being closely watched by America because there was. 1:14:48.800 --> 1:14:51.360 A hope at the time that if it could. 1:14:51.200 --> 1:14:56.120 Be resolved peacefully, if somehow the Iranians inside could be released, 1:14:56.120 --> 1:14:59.280 it would please Tehran and that could then be used 1:14:59.320 --> 1:15:03.080 as a leave to try to persuade Iran to release 1:15:03.120 --> 1:15:07.959 the American hostages. So throughout this six day siege, Washington 1:15:08.040 --> 1:15:11.120 was on the line to Margaret Thatcher saying, you know, 1:15:11.360 --> 1:15:14.680 get this sorted out, Please, get this done bloodlessly. Do 1:15:14.760 --> 1:15:17.479 it in a way that will, you know, curry favor 1:15:17.520 --> 1:15:20.000 with the Iranian regime, and then we may be able 1:15:20.040 --> 1:15:21.080 to use it as a way to. 1:15:21.040 --> 1:15:21.920 Get our people out. 1:15:22.479 --> 1:15:26.479 Needless to say, that didn't work. The siege ended with 1:15:26.600 --> 1:15:32.000 an extraordinary assault by the sas by British special forces. 1:15:32.520 --> 1:15:36.320 It was highly successful. In contrast to it operating Eagle Claw, 1:15:36.640 --> 1:15:40.519 which you've just mentioned, this was an astonishing success. They 1:15:40.560 --> 1:15:43.800 managed to save all but two of the hostages and 1:15:43.920 --> 1:15:45.920 indeed killed all but one of the gunment. 1:15:45.960 --> 1:15:47.600 It was an amazing achievement. 1:15:48.760 --> 1:15:51.720 The hope that this would somehow bring Tehran into a 1:15:51.760 --> 1:15:55.760 better relationship with both Britain and America was not to be. 1:15:56.200 --> 1:16:00.000 That hardline regime remained just as hardline as it was before, 1:16:00.080 --> 1:16:00.799 if not harder. 1:16:01.680 --> 1:16:04.160 Connect the dots and Ben mcintyren the sea. How did 1:16:04.200 --> 1:16:07.759 we get to today where you have another humanitarian crisis. 1:16:07.760 --> 1:16:11.320 You have more hostages, this time those people from Gaza 1:16:11.360 --> 1:16:13.519 in the Middle East, and we have Palestinians and Israel 1:16:13.560 --> 1:16:16.080 nothing new there are How close are those two related? 1:16:16.439 --> 1:16:18.639 And it seems like, I think for the casual observer, 1:16:18.760 --> 1:16:23.160 certainly the battle between Jews in Arabs and Palestinians in 1:16:23.200 --> 1:16:25.400 this case has been gone on much much longer than 1:16:25.439 --> 1:16:27.680 what we're talking about here with the anniversary of the 1:16:27.680 --> 1:16:28.879 Iranian hostage crisis. 1:16:29.000 --> 1:16:31.840 Out of these all connect, yes. 1:16:31.760 --> 1:16:32.599 Well they do connect. 1:16:32.600 --> 1:16:35.200 I mean, you know, the battle inside the Iranian embassy 1:16:35.200 --> 1:16:39.000 in London during the siege was really between rival ideologies, 1:16:39.080 --> 1:16:42.360 people who believed they had right on their side and 1:16:42.479 --> 1:16:45.400 were prepared to do anything that they had to do, 1:16:45.479 --> 1:16:49.479 including killing, including mass killing, in order to achieve their 1:16:49.520 --> 1:16:52.560 political aims. It was non religious conflict. 1:16:52.880 --> 1:16:53.559 The one in London. 1:16:53.920 --> 1:16:56.840 It was much more to do with rights and territory 1:16:57.080 --> 1:17:02.759 and representation, as you can argue is the case in Gaza. 1:17:03.400 --> 1:17:04.240 What it seems to. 1:17:04.160 --> 1:17:07.600 Me this story is about really is about radicalization. The 1:17:07.600 --> 1:17:10.200 sixth gunmen who went into attack the embassy. 1:17:09.720 --> 1:17:12.280 Here had all suffered at. 1:17:12.160 --> 1:17:15.679 The hands of Iran's security service. They had had family 1:17:15.720 --> 1:17:19.840 members killed, tortured, executed. Now that doesn't justify what they 1:17:20.000 --> 1:17:22.919 what they did is still these were men of violence 1:17:22.920 --> 1:17:25.800 who were prepared to kill and be killed in what 1:17:25.840 --> 1:17:28.920 they were doing. But they had been brutalized by a 1:17:29.040 --> 1:17:31.639 kind of tit for tack violence, which is what we're 1:17:31.680 --> 1:17:35.320 seeing today. In a way in Gaza, the quickest way 1:17:35.360 --> 1:17:38.439 to make a man into a killer is to kill 1:17:38.720 --> 1:17:42.360 the thing that he loves. And you know, indiscriminate bombing, 1:17:42.600 --> 1:17:46.200 you know, attacking kibbutzies. These are acts of sort of 1:17:46.240 --> 1:17:50.160 indiscriminate violence that create They don't create. 1:17:50.160 --> 1:17:52.040 The effect that they that they are intended to create. 1:17:52.040 --> 1:17:55.800 They simply create more violence. So although this story of 1:17:55.880 --> 1:17:58.160 the of the Iranian embassy siege in London that the 1:17:58.280 --> 1:18:01.920 sas hostage drama, it is still a story of our times. 1:18:02.000 --> 1:18:07.200 We still have hostages being taken in the name of politics, 1:18:07.200 --> 1:18:09.960 in the name of sort of sexcittarian views, which is 1:18:10.040 --> 1:18:11.960 exactly what was happening in London. 1:18:12.640 --> 1:18:15.559 And sadly, Ben if you look prior to nineteen eighty 1:18:16.400 --> 1:18:19.160 and you'll see photographs of people in Tehran in the 1:18:19.240 --> 1:18:20.679 nineteen seventies and sixties. 1:18:21.120 --> 1:18:22.040 It looks very western. 1:18:22.240 --> 1:18:24.839 The women are addressed in Western clothes, they're in Burker's 1:18:24.960 --> 1:18:26.800 lists of the music go on a Western university. 1:18:27.080 --> 1:18:29.160 Will we ever see in our lifetime the pendulum swing 1:18:29.160 --> 1:18:29.639 back that way? 1:18:30.080 --> 1:18:32.160 Hopefully? Probably? Who knows? 1:18:32.200 --> 1:18:34.439 I mean in order, But you're actually right, of course, Scott. 1:18:34.479 --> 1:18:37.400 You know that it was a very westernized regime. 1:18:37.080 --> 1:18:38.960 In Iran under the Shah. 1:18:39.040 --> 1:18:41.680 But of course that had happened very quickly too. It 1:18:41.680 --> 1:18:45.000 had gone from being a much more traditional, much more 1:18:45.560 --> 1:18:48.519 religious state. He had sort of force marched it with 1:18:48.880 --> 1:18:52.479 Western help, into the Western world. The non wearing of 1:18:52.560 --> 1:18:56.040 hit jabs and so on in Iran was all comparatively news. 1:18:56.080 --> 1:18:59.040 So these are very sudden changes. One shouldn't imagine that 1:18:59.120 --> 1:19:03.360 Iran had had a slow evolution into a westernized Middle 1:19:03.400 --> 1:19:06.799 Eastern country. It hadn't. It had been frog marched into 1:19:06.880 --> 1:19:09.960 that by the shar who was determined to create that 1:19:10.120 --> 1:19:14.439 high speed a modern nation, and he did so with 1:19:14.560 --> 1:19:17.880 extreme brutality. I mean, we now know of some of 1:19:17.880 --> 1:19:22.799 the horrors perpetrated by his security service during the Shah's regime. 1:19:22.880 --> 1:19:24.200 So again you have that. 1:19:24.280 --> 1:19:27.840 Story of sudden change coupled with an absolute sort of 1:19:27.960 --> 1:19:31.200 determination to impose your views. 1:19:31.080 --> 1:19:31.799 On other people. 1:19:31.840 --> 1:19:35.599 That is an old, old story and alas it's been 1:19:35.640 --> 1:19:41.280 the story in Iran for centuries. I mean, Western involvement 1:19:41.320 --> 1:19:43.280 in Iran is not a happy story. 1:19:43.400 --> 1:19:46.559 The Anglo American oil companies. 1:19:46.400 --> 1:19:49.800 Who manipulated Iran and tried to make huge amounts of 1:19:49.800 --> 1:19:52.360 profits out of there, that is also part of this story. 1:19:52.400 --> 1:19:54.599 The West is not blameless in this story. 1:19:55.040 --> 1:19:55.880 It's not as if the. 1:19:55.840 --> 1:20:01.599 Shara was some charming, polite, demo traffic elected figure. 1:20:01.640 --> 1:20:04.559 He was not. He was a ruthless autocrat. 1:20:04.240 --> 1:20:07.920 And he was backed by Britain and America. And part 1:20:07.960 --> 1:20:11.519 of that autocracy is what sparked the revolution. It didn't 1:20:11.560 --> 1:20:12.400 come from nowhere. 1:20:12.720 --> 1:20:15.680 Yeah, British petroleum comes to man, right BP, which we 1:20:15.720 --> 1:20:18.920 have here obviously British year where you are in trying 1:20:18.960 --> 1:20:21.360 to keep oil as low as we'll go and essentially 1:20:21.400 --> 1:20:23.519 milking that out and people realized, hey, wait a minute, 1:20:23.520 --> 1:20:26.480 we in it lant to the oil crisis, the oil embargo, 1:20:26.720 --> 1:20:28.880 and it doesn't sound like much has change. We're still 1:20:28.880 --> 1:20:31.000 fighting this battle. 1:20:32.200 --> 1:20:33.479 I think that's exactly right. 1:20:33.600 --> 1:20:37.759 And you know, in nineteen fifty three, the democratically elected 1:20:37.760 --> 1:20:41.439 government of Iran was toppled in a coup because they 1:20:41.560 --> 1:20:44.360 appeared to be about to nationalize the oil industry. 1:20:44.840 --> 1:20:47.360 Well, who was behind that coup? It was the. 1:20:47.320 --> 1:20:50.240 CIA and MI six it was it was British and 1:20:50.280 --> 1:20:55.400 American intelligence created a coup against the democratically elected government. 1:20:55.640 --> 1:21:00.439 That shows you just how volatile and how much X theory, 1:21:00.439 --> 1:21:03.920 a sort of influence has has had to play in 1:21:03.960 --> 1:21:07.360 the Iranian story. And it goes back, it goes and memories. 1:21:06.920 --> 1:21:08.639 In Iran are very very long. 1:21:08.680 --> 1:21:10.920 I mean again, in no way am I defending the 1:21:11.439 --> 1:21:15.439 appalling theocratic regime in Tehran today, which has become more 1:21:15.479 --> 1:21:18.439 and more oppressive as time has gone on. But one 1:21:18.520 --> 1:21:20.240 has to see that as you have to see all 1:21:20.280 --> 1:21:23.880 these stories in historical context. These things don't happen out 1:21:23.880 --> 1:21:24.400 of nowhere. 1:21:25.160 --> 1:21:29.360 Well you kind of said it yourself. Oppression leads to revolution. 1:21:30.120 --> 1:21:32.840 And as oppressed as people are there, do we see 1:21:32.840 --> 1:21:34.840 a revolution brewing where people are going to want to 1:21:34.880 --> 1:21:37.639 take back their country or at least their autocracy. It's 1:21:37.680 --> 1:21:39.519 been going on for almost fifty years. I think that 1:21:39.640 --> 1:21:40.000 is right. 1:21:40.080 --> 1:21:41.040 Do we see an end inside? 1:21:41.040 --> 1:21:43.439 Because it's all cyclical, it all comes back. 1:21:45.360 --> 1:21:45.720 It does. 1:21:45.760 --> 1:21:49.639 An oppression is to revolution, and revolution almost inevitably leads 1:21:49.680 --> 1:21:52.400 to greater repression, so you have a kind of vicious 1:21:52.439 --> 1:21:56.360 cycle that eventually explodes out of the country. That is, 1:21:56.520 --> 1:21:59.800 you know, the American hostage crisis was very different in 1:21:59.840 --> 1:22:02.720 the ways from the British embassy crisis, because of course 1:22:02.720 --> 1:22:06.240 that was those were captives inside an entire country. They 1:22:06.240 --> 1:22:10.120 were really being held hostage by the Iranian state. This 1:22:10.280 --> 1:22:12.759 was both similar but at the same time different because 1:22:13.680 --> 1:22:16.679 these were terrorists, gunmen who had come to this country 1:22:16.720 --> 1:22:21.560 with the avowed intention of staging sort of terrorists spectacular 1:22:21.960 --> 1:22:25.559 with Iraqi backing. But within days of it happening, groups 1:22:25.600 --> 1:22:28.479 of demonstrators were gathering on the streets of London. You 1:22:28.600 --> 1:22:33.439 had the Iranian demonstrators who were backing the Ayatollah who 1:22:33.479 --> 1:22:34.040 believed that. 1:22:34.000 --> 1:22:36.519 This must be a CIA backed assault on. 1:22:36.479 --> 1:22:39.559 The Iranian embassy. The CIA was immediately blamed by the 1:22:39.600 --> 1:22:41.880 Iranian government for causing it. Of course they had actually 1:22:41.960 --> 1:22:43.559 nothing to do with it. It was all being done 1:22:43.560 --> 1:22:47.000 by Saddam Hustine. Then you had Americans in London. 1:22:46.880 --> 1:22:49.200 Demonstrating because they believed. 1:22:48.800 --> 1:22:52.040 That somehow this was linked that the maybe Americans inside 1:22:52.080 --> 1:22:54.200 that embassy who were being held hostage. Again, there were 1:22:54.240 --> 1:22:56.479 other people who believed that actually this must be the 1:22:56.520 --> 1:23:01.120 Iranians themselves launching an attack against their own embassy. 1:23:01.160 --> 1:23:02.040 And finally you have. 1:23:02.479 --> 1:23:05.599 The traditional British football litigants. He turned up to toward 1:23:05.680 --> 1:23:08.080 the others and ended up in a sort of punch 1:23:08.160 --> 1:23:10.680 up with everybody else. So you've got a very complicated 1:23:10.680 --> 1:23:13.880 situation that is is kind of spooning out from a 1:23:14.000 --> 1:23:14.919 central conflict. 1:23:15.040 --> 1:23:18.120 All right, more on this, Ben McIntyre, The siege and 1:23:18.760 --> 1:23:21.160 the anniversary of the Iranian hostage crisis is here. 1:23:21.200 --> 1:23:23.840 Thanks for the time, Great jer Scott, thanks for having 1:23:23.880 --> 1:23:24.080 me on. 1:23:24.680 --> 1:23:27.840 Thanks again today not only election day, but also the 1:23:28.200 --> 1:23:31.519 anniversary of the Iranian hostage crisis in nineteen seventy nine, 1:23:32.200 --> 1:23:35.200 and also the passing of Vice President Dick Cheney, who 1:23:35.240 --> 1:23:39.000 in nineteen seventy nine was the freshman representative from the 1:23:39.000 --> 1:23:41.320 Great State of Wyoming. He had worked in the Ford 1:23:41.320 --> 1:23:45.439 White House, but later under Ronald Reagan, with Iran contra 1:23:45.520 --> 1:23:48.120 brewing in the mid nineteen eighties, a different Iran related 1:23:48.120 --> 1:23:49.840 scandal than we're talking about here, A problem, I guess 1:23:49.880 --> 1:23:51.640 I should say. He was in the House Select Committee 1:23:51.720 --> 1:23:55.720 that investigated that and defended the Reagan administration and then, 1:23:55.760 --> 1:23:58.599 of course years later becoming Vice President of United States, 1:23:58.600 --> 1:24:01.080 Dick Cheney passing away overnight. 1:24:01.280 --> 1:24:02.360 It's a Scott Sloan show. 1:24:02.360 --> 1:24:04.000 This is a home of the best Bengals covered seven 1:24:04.040 --> 1:24:05.520 hundred WW Cincinnati. 1:24:06.160 --> 1:24:09.320 Time to talk about money, how to make it, how 1:24:09.360 --> 1:24:12.840 to keep it, and how to keep others off your stack. 1:24:16.680 --> 1:24:19.920 This is all worth Advice with Andy Schaeffer Andrew. 1:24:19.960 --> 1:24:21.080 Good morning, you have life. 1:24:21.400 --> 1:24:22.880 Everything's good, Scott, how are you today? 1:24:22.920 --> 1:24:25.040 Everything is fine, Everything is fine. 1:24:25.040 --> 1:24:27.320 But you're gonna tell me today with the markets and 1:24:27.360 --> 1:24:29.479 such which is going on here on this election day. 1:24:30.120 --> 1:24:33.040 Let's jump right in at the top interest rates cut 1:24:33.040 --> 1:24:35.479 by the Fed. That's was predicted by you. No big 1:24:35.520 --> 1:24:38.679 surprise right there, and that is any good news. 1:24:38.720 --> 1:24:38.920 Now. 1:24:39.880 --> 1:24:41.400 I guess though that you could look at this and 1:24:41.439 --> 1:24:44.800 say that the chair Jerom Powell, the Fed really did 1:24:44.800 --> 1:24:47.720 a little unexpected thing or what wasn't expected? How aggressive 1:24:47.720 --> 1:24:49.559 it was? Maybe another cut's coming up? Can you lay 1:24:49.560 --> 1:24:50.080 it out for us? 1:24:50.360 --> 1:24:50.759 Yeah? 1:24:50.840 --> 1:24:53.320 So I think you need to remember that markets are 1:24:53.360 --> 1:24:56.959 predictive indicators of how investors feel about the economy. 1:24:56.960 --> 1:24:58.760 Looking out, let's say, six months to a year. 1:24:58.880 --> 1:25:02.040 So we all knew or thought we knew that there 1:25:02.040 --> 1:25:04.200 would be a cut, you know, this past week, and 1:25:04.280 --> 1:25:07.519 that's exactly what happened. And so the markets really haven't 1:25:07.560 --> 1:25:10.920 responded favorably one way or the other. And I think that, 1:25:11.439 --> 1:25:13.360 you know, what investors are really looking for is what 1:25:13.400 --> 1:25:17.160 we call guidance, and guidance is what the FED chair 1:25:17.320 --> 1:25:21.240 will say in the press conference after the decision is made. 1:25:21.240 --> 1:25:22.840 And he kind of threw a little bit of water 1:25:23.000 --> 1:25:25.600 on our optimism a little bit. And really what he 1:25:25.680 --> 1:25:28.240 said was is said, Okay, you know, I know that 1:25:28.240 --> 1:25:30.639 you're all thinking that there's going to be another cut December. 1:25:30.760 --> 1:25:33.679 He said, basically, hold your horses. We're not there yet. 1:25:33.760 --> 1:25:37.679 There has been some descent within the FED committee members 1:25:37.760 --> 1:25:41.639 about what direction we should go moving forward. He said, essentially, 1:25:41.720 --> 1:25:44.320 it's not a foregone conclusion. He said, we're far from 1:25:44.320 --> 1:25:47.559 that decision, even though that we believe that it's probably 1:25:47.560 --> 1:25:49.800 still going to happen in December. That really kind of 1:25:49.800 --> 1:25:52.519 put a damper on the optimism of investors in general. 1:25:53.439 --> 1:25:56.559 Okay, and then just laying this out there too, is 1:25:56.600 --> 1:25:59.160 that we're just going to keep going till we get 1:25:59.320 --> 1:26:01.519 a one point. You know, I'm talking to my wife 1:26:01.560 --> 1:26:04.160 about this. In the real estate markets, Uh, people are like, wow, 1:26:04.160 --> 1:26:05.960 I'm just gonna wait till goes back down the three percent. 1:26:06.200 --> 1:26:07.479 We're not gonna see those rates again. 1:26:08.040 --> 1:26:11.680 Uh, probably not. But he also said further that you know, 1:26:11.920 --> 1:26:14.360 if we don't cut in December, we're still probably gonna 1:26:14.360 --> 1:26:18.720 see cuts next year. That can amount to maybe one 1:26:18.800 --> 1:26:21.160 quarter percent cut, maybe three quarter percent cuts. 1:26:21.160 --> 1:26:21.960 We just don't know. 1:26:22.040 --> 1:26:24.320 And you know what the Fed is balancing right now 1:26:24.479 --> 1:26:27.000 is you know, what is inflation gonna do. If inflation 1:26:27.120 --> 1:26:29.519 remains pretty sticky, they're gonna hold off. They're gonna wait 1:26:29.560 --> 1:26:32.000 to see what happens. If the labor market starts to 1:26:32.040 --> 1:26:33.960 waiver a little bit more and we see more cracks 1:26:34.000 --> 1:26:37.280 in the labor market, maybe they become more aggressive. But 1:26:37.360 --> 1:26:40.280 what he basically, you know, his message was basically, we 1:26:40.479 --> 1:26:42.840 need to wait and see, you know, don't get your 1:26:42.880 --> 1:26:43.759 hopes up too quickly. 1:26:44.600 --> 1:26:46.040 All right, wait and see pump there. 1:26:46.040 --> 1:26:48.280 Well, we'll see what December bus, right, and it's gonna 1:26:48.280 --> 1:26:49.800 be hear in a few short weeks anyway, So we're 1:26:49.800 --> 1:26:51.120 going to know sooner rather than later. 1:26:51.160 --> 1:26:52.479 So would you say, like fifty to fifty. 1:26:53.000 --> 1:26:53.960 Yeah, No, I think. 1:26:53.840 --> 1:26:56.439 It's probably more two thirds likely that we do see 1:26:56.439 --> 1:26:58.519 it cut in December. Now, the Fed doesn't want to 1:26:58.920 --> 1:27:01.000 you know, really reveal their hand, but I think it's 1:27:01.000 --> 1:27:01.800 more likely than not. 1:27:02.240 --> 1:27:04.120 All Right, we saw the markets jump over the last 1:27:04.120 --> 1:27:07.920 few days. For sure, Today can outlier, but it's because 1:27:07.920 --> 1:27:10.240 Trump and g met in South Korea and agreed on 1:27:10.760 --> 1:27:11.800 I guess tariff terms. 1:27:11.840 --> 1:27:13.760 But how did the markets react to that? 1:27:13.800 --> 1:27:16.200 Because we've heard that before, only to hear while more 1:27:16.240 --> 1:27:21.559 tariffs being threatened, and we've ignored the the negatives where 1:27:21.560 --> 1:27:23.360 the threat is going to be more tariffs. Do we 1:27:23.640 --> 1:27:26.479 also ignore the fact that China and the United States 1:27:26.560 --> 1:27:27.280 might have a deal here. 1:27:28.600 --> 1:27:30.240 I think there's two components to it. 1:27:30.320 --> 1:27:33.160 I think that investors like the fact that there's open 1:27:33.200 --> 1:27:36.600 dialogue between President Trump and President g They met in 1:27:36.680 --> 1:27:40.439 South Korea and agreed on several terms. Basically, they're hoping 1:27:40.479 --> 1:27:45.639 to de escalate the tension between you know, two economic superpowers. However, 1:27:45.920 --> 1:27:48.360 it's still more of kicking the can down the road, 1:27:48.640 --> 1:27:50.920 you know. It's it's one of those, you know, one 1:27:50.960 --> 1:27:54.080 of those deals like Ronald Reagan said, you know, verify, 1:27:54.280 --> 1:27:57.240 you know trust, but verify China is going to purchase 1:27:57.320 --> 1:27:59.760 large amounts of US soybeans in the next three years. 1:28:00.160 --> 1:28:00.599 Farmers. 1:28:01.240 --> 1:28:02.599 Yeah, that's gonna be good for farmers. 1:28:02.760 --> 1:28:04.760 But here, here's the deal about China, Scott, is that 1:28:05.360 --> 1:28:08.879 we've made deals with them before, but they haven't always 1:28:08.960 --> 1:28:12.280 followed through on those deals. And so we basically have 1:28:12.400 --> 1:28:15.240 said we're gonna we're gonna make these deals. We're gonna 1:28:15.240 --> 1:28:17.760 give it a year and see and make sure that 1:28:17.880 --> 1:28:21.200 we have plans in place to verify these types of things, 1:28:21.680 --> 1:28:24.320 you know, And we're also gonna pause restrictions. I'm sorry, 1:28:24.400 --> 1:28:27.800 China's gonna pause restrictions on rare earth exports over the 1:28:27.840 --> 1:28:31.440 next year. And that's important because those rare earth minerals 1:28:31.479 --> 1:28:35.240 are critical for not only components that we use with 1:28:35.360 --> 1:28:39.439 electronics and it, but also for our military. Trump agreed 1:28:39.439 --> 1:28:42.040 to scale back the fentanyl related terrorists from twenty percent 1:28:42.080 --> 1:28:45.559 to ten percent, and that basically results in an average 1:28:45.560 --> 1:28:48.320 of forty seven percent tariff on Chinese goods. 1:28:48.360 --> 1:28:51.880 So, you know, all of these things on paper sound good. 1:28:52.640 --> 1:28:55.240 Investors like the fact that, hey, we're coming to the 1:28:55.280 --> 1:28:57.800 table with China, but it still really remains to be 1:28:57.840 --> 1:29:03.200 seen whether these tears remain in place, whether China is 1:29:03.320 --> 1:29:07.080 acting in good faith with these UH lifted restrictions and 1:29:07.120 --> 1:29:11.960 continue to progress on deals between the world's biggest superpowers. 1:29:12.800 --> 1:29:17.639 Andy Schaefer, we're also battling Venezuela over allegedly allegedly it 1:29:17.680 --> 1:29:20.080 is fentanyl coming across the Bard, and all the drug 1:29:20.160 --> 1:29:23.160 surveys and reports and everything say that is simply not 1:29:23.160 --> 1:29:27.360 not at all true. You mentioned rare with minerals, and 1:29:27.439 --> 1:29:31.120 I know that Venezuela has a significant deposit of those. 1:29:31.120 --> 1:29:32.439 Could that be what's going on here? 1:29:32.960 --> 1:29:37.040 Well, there's there's a couple of things with Venezuela, UH Venezuela. Essentially, 1:29:37.120 --> 1:29:40.480 we don't have a large trading or relationship with Venezuela. 1:29:40.640 --> 1:29:43.840 So when you look at tariff conversations, in tariff talks, 1:29:43.840 --> 1:29:46.719 you know, going back to you know, the American Revolution, 1:29:46.800 --> 1:29:50.400 there were basically two reasons that we implemented terrafs. Alexander 1:29:50.439 --> 1:29:54.200 Hamilton wanted to get you know, a significant amount more revenue, 1:29:54.240 --> 1:29:56.479 you know, that's one of the benefits of terras The 1:29:56.560 --> 1:29:59.360 other reason is that you want to bring more control 1:29:59.439 --> 1:30:03.120 back to your own industry and control you know, the 1:30:03.400 --> 1:30:06.280 production of goods. Well, Donald Trump is using it in 1:30:06.320 --> 1:30:08.200 another way, and one of the ways that he's using 1:30:08.240 --> 1:30:10.640 it is from a political sense, even though that we 1:30:10.680 --> 1:30:15.000 don't have a big trading relationship with Venezuela. Venezuela is 1:30:15.040 --> 1:30:18.600 supplying oil, rare earth minerals to a lot of, you know, 1:30:18.640 --> 1:30:23.840 what we perceive as adversaries of the United States, and 1:30:23.920 --> 1:30:27.400 so what you can do with with Venezuela then is 1:30:27.439 --> 1:30:29.519 put a lot of restrictions on them to say, hey, 1:30:30.000 --> 1:30:33.439 don't start mining your rare minerals and sending them to 1:30:33.520 --> 1:30:37.240 a lot of our adversaries, you know, because we will 1:30:37.240 --> 1:30:40.760 be able to put restrictions and punish you significantly with 1:30:40.840 --> 1:30:43.280 a lot of our economic tools that we have in 1:30:43.320 --> 1:30:45.439 our pocket. And so I think it's more of a 1:30:45.439 --> 1:30:49.000 political play where we're trying to squeeze China, Russia and 1:30:49.040 --> 1:30:52.799 those types of countries and hurt Venezuela in the process 1:30:52.840 --> 1:30:55.320 because they are helping out a lot of our rivals. 1:30:55.479 --> 1:30:57.280 Obviously, the oil is a big one, they're the largest 1:30:57.360 --> 1:31:00.240 reserves in the world in Venezuela. Gold is another one 1:31:00.280 --> 1:31:02.240 as well. But the problem is it's such a battered 1:31:02.240 --> 1:31:04.759 and beliegued country that we don't know We just assume 1:31:04.800 --> 1:31:07.160 they've got a lot of rare earth minerals because China's 1:31:07.160 --> 1:31:08.880 in there and they put tons of money into the 1:31:08.880 --> 1:31:11.200 mines in Venezuela. And I think maybe you know, he 1:31:11.479 --> 1:31:14.679 Ventanyl plays really well too. I think Trump's base for sure. 1:31:14.960 --> 1:31:17.840 But the reality is is little or no fentanyl. It's 1:31:17.880 --> 1:31:20.080 mainly you know, coming from Mexico and other countries have 1:31:20.200 --> 1:31:23.240 other South American countries, not Venezuela. There's a whole different 1:31:23.320 --> 1:31:25.880 dynamic there. But the pretext is, hey, you know what 1:31:25.920 --> 1:31:27.960 they're they're traveler blowing the boats up. Maybe we start 1:31:28.040 --> 1:31:31.439 launches inside of Venezuela. We want to change the regime there. 1:31:31.439 --> 1:31:34.320 It's more favorable for the United States, and now maybe 1:31:34.360 --> 1:31:37.040 we can overthrow things and turn the tide in our favor. 1:31:37.479 --> 1:31:39.719 That's I think the I think that's the real story 1:31:39.760 --> 1:31:41.120 that what's going on in Venezuela. 1:31:41.200 --> 1:31:43.920 Yeah, and I think there's you know, to a large degree, 1:31:43.920 --> 1:31:44.639 you're right there. 1:31:45.160 --> 1:31:47.720 You know the other thing about rare earth minerals, petroleum, 1:31:47.880 --> 1:31:49.960 oil and you know, energy. 1:31:49.640 --> 1:31:50.439 And things like that. 1:31:50.960 --> 1:31:55.240 The United States has a large reserves. The problem is 1:31:55.240 --> 1:31:58.679 is not having the access to those types of minerals 1:31:58.680 --> 1:32:00.840 and oil and things like that. The problem is is 1:32:00.880 --> 1:32:04.120 that we don't have the capability of the refinement that 1:32:04.600 --> 1:32:08.280 countries like China has, and so China is looking at, hey, 1:32:08.439 --> 1:32:11.320 what does our nation look like twenty five fifty years 1:32:11.320 --> 1:32:13.919 down the road. And so everybody right now is jocking 1:32:14.160 --> 1:32:16.840 for position to be able to have leverage not only 1:32:17.280 --> 1:32:19.599 just today and weeks ahead and over the next couple 1:32:19.640 --> 1:32:22.600 of years, but really looking out into the future for 1:32:22.720 --> 1:32:25.920 our next generations. And that's where we're really starting to 1:32:25.960 --> 1:32:29.200 try to position ourselves, not today, not tomorrow, but looking 1:32:29.200 --> 1:32:29.960 into the future now. 1:32:30.000 --> 1:32:33.120 Right it's the Geopolitical Roundtable, Andy Schaeffer from all We're 1:32:33.200 --> 1:32:35.679 financial here on seven hundred WW. This is some deep 1:32:35.720 --> 1:32:37.880 dive kind of stuff. This is like you know, NPR 1:32:38.000 --> 1:32:39.800 kind of this is high level stuff. We got go 1:32:39.840 --> 1:32:40.639 out of our brother. 1:32:40.920 --> 1:32:43.200 Well, I think, you know, you have to plan ahead, 1:32:43.400 --> 1:32:46.719 you have to understand and when you know, in my industry, 1:32:46.760 --> 1:32:49.800 when you're talking about investing, you have to understand what 1:32:49.960 --> 1:32:53.320 makes sense from making a smart investment, and what does 1:32:53.360 --> 1:32:56.240 our country look like not only tomorrow, the next day 1:32:56.360 --> 1:32:58.519 or the day after that, but what makes sense moving 1:32:58.560 --> 1:33:02.559 forward and what direction is our errow moving Not only 1:33:02.920 --> 1:33:05.680 you know you know, from a labor market standpoint, but 1:33:05.720 --> 1:33:09.040 also what sectors look more promising, and that's really important 1:33:09.240 --> 1:33:12.400 to make good decisions within my client's portfolio and for 1:33:12.439 --> 1:33:13.320 investors in general. 1:33:13.479 --> 1:33:16.040 All Right, the threat of AI is all looming. All 1:33:16.040 --> 1:33:17.640 the news this week is not all of it, but 1:33:18.000 --> 1:33:20.599 it feels like everything is filtered the context of AI. 1:33:20.680 --> 1:33:24.000 This changing dynamic, you know, the it's the next industrial 1:33:24.040 --> 1:33:26.360 revolution that's going on right near. People are losing their 1:33:26.439 --> 1:33:28.960 jobs and we're seeing you know, entry level, white collar 1:33:29.040 --> 1:33:32.160 jobs disappear as a result of this. And the idea 1:33:32.200 --> 1:33:34.000 that's going to take all jobs away, I think is 1:33:34.080 --> 1:33:37.040 kind of silly because if you go back to any 1:33:37.080 --> 1:33:39.760 technological revolution, it's always the threat of, oh my god, 1:33:39.760 --> 1:33:41.400 this is going to destroy all these jobs. You know, 1:33:41.479 --> 1:33:43.320 back in the day when you had typewriters or exactly 1:33:43.560 --> 1:33:46.280 type is now you know, we have AI and type 1:33:46.280 --> 1:33:49.040 hast took away all the people doing calligraphy and writing 1:33:49.080 --> 1:33:51.840 things by hand. So we just morph into different. 1:33:51.640 --> 1:33:55.320 Jobs, right, Yeah, I remember typing papers and junior high 1:33:55.360 --> 1:33:57.720 on a typewriter, and you know, and and and that 1:33:57.760 --> 1:33:59.720 didn't eliminate a lot of jobs when we moved into 1:33:59.720 --> 1:34:01.920 computer and it did in the late nineties when we 1:34:01.960 --> 1:34:04.519 developed the Internet, there was a lot of fear there 1:34:04.720 --> 1:34:08.120 and I think right now people just don't know really 1:34:08.160 --> 1:34:10.719 what to make of AI. And I think that AI 1:34:10.880 --> 1:34:13.680 is here to stay. It is a major revolution. If 1:34:13.680 --> 1:34:18.200 businesses are not looking into adding AI into to become 1:34:18.240 --> 1:34:21.040 a major component of their business, they will probably falter 1:34:21.160 --> 1:34:24.800 and maybe dissipate and an underperform. And I think that 1:34:25.360 --> 1:34:28.240 I think investors understand that that is the future. I 1:34:28.320 --> 1:34:31.559 use AI within my job. My wife the other night 1:34:31.720 --> 1:34:34.479 was looking to add a mantle over our fireplace. Well, 1:34:34.840 --> 1:34:37.240 she could type in something on AI and it builds 1:34:37.240 --> 1:34:42.120 this big picture of all these different types of aesthetics 1:34:42.160 --> 1:34:45.040 to that picture and helps you shop for those types 1:34:45.080 --> 1:34:47.599 of proper So AI is here to stay. 1:34:47.960 --> 1:34:48.120 Now. 1:34:48.160 --> 1:34:51.040 There is overvaluation there, and what I mean by that 1:34:51.240 --> 1:34:54.000 is the price for stocks that are invested in AI 1:34:54.560 --> 1:34:57.680 are elevated versus what their earnings are today. And the 1:34:57.720 --> 1:35:00.599 bed is is that these companies are going to continue 1:35:00.680 --> 1:35:03.679 to generate revenue trillions of dollars over the next five years. 1:35:03.680 --> 1:35:06.719 And so I'm willing to pay this elevated price today 1:35:06.840 --> 1:35:11.160 for the opportunity for the prospect that these companies will 1:35:11.160 --> 1:35:13.519 continue to perform in the future, and I think that's 1:35:13.520 --> 1:35:16.200 a good bet. Now, if you ever see any types 1:35:16.200 --> 1:35:19.920 of earnings reports that falter a little bit versus the estimates, 1:35:19.920 --> 1:35:21.360 you're going to see a little bit of a pullback. 1:35:21.400 --> 1:35:23.200 And that's kind of what we've seen over the last 1:35:23.520 --> 1:35:25.639 couple of days, is that people are getting a little 1:35:25.680 --> 1:35:28.840 bit tired of these elevated prices and are almost looking 1:35:28.880 --> 1:35:31.760 for a reason to lock in those gains. But I 1:35:31.800 --> 1:35:34.160 do think you guys here to stay. I do still 1:35:34.200 --> 1:35:36.040 think it's a good investment, and I think that you 1:35:36.200 --> 1:35:38.120 need to have it as a piece. 1:35:37.960 --> 1:35:38.719 Of your portfolio. 1:35:39.880 --> 1:35:41.920 And certainly it's not going anywhere. It's here. 1:35:41.920 --> 1:35:44.040 But the idea that this is going to somehow destroy it. 1:35:44.040 --> 1:35:46.240 It's probably gonna take some jobs away, but they'll create 1:35:46.320 --> 1:35:47.920 jobs and other sectors, we don't know. That's the way 1:35:47.960 --> 1:35:50.160 it's always been. Any technology comes along and the car 1:35:50.200 --> 1:35:52.120 comes along, Oh my god, the horse. What are we 1:35:52.120 --> 1:35:54.479 going to do with the horseshoeers and the guys who 1:35:54.640 --> 1:35:57.880 farm hay? And you know, again, everybody just finds new jobs. 1:35:57.920 --> 1:35:59.400 That's that's kind of the way it is. You do 1:35:59.560 --> 1:36:01.880 wind to pit it and do something else, let's take 1:36:01.880 --> 1:36:03.439 a look at the week ahead. Here we are into 1:36:03.479 --> 1:36:05.719 the I don't know, the third year of the government shutdown. 1:36:05.720 --> 1:36:08.439 I've lost track of this whole thing. We're not getting 1:36:08.439 --> 1:36:10.960 any official economic data out as all of that, but again, 1:36:11.040 --> 1:36:13.000 the markets will figure it out. So they're going to 1:36:13.080 --> 1:36:14.719 come up with some foodgazy reports here. 1:36:14.640 --> 1:36:16.920 Right, Yeah, I think I think so. 1:36:17.360 --> 1:36:19.800 And you know, it is a challenge to you know, 1:36:19.840 --> 1:36:22.160 to really get an understanding where we are from an 1:36:22.200 --> 1:36:25.840 economic point of view. You know, there's really a lack 1:36:25.880 --> 1:36:29.080 of economic releases due to the shutdown, but there are 1:36:29.120 --> 1:36:31.800 some there is some private data updates. We are going 1:36:31.880 --> 1:36:36.120 to get the ISM Manufacturing and Services Survey and the 1:36:36.200 --> 1:36:39.479 ice CM is basically the Institute for Supply Management and 1:36:39.520 --> 1:36:43.960 what they do is basically pull a lot of supply 1:36:44.080 --> 1:36:47.639 managers of different industries to find out whether they feel 1:36:47.680 --> 1:36:50.640 like you're going to increase your purchases of supply or 1:36:50.640 --> 1:36:53.200 you're going to reduce your your purchases of supply. And 1:36:53.240 --> 1:36:56.240 that gives us an idea of, you know, the optimism 1:36:56.360 --> 1:36:59.880 or lack thereof, of how these supply managers feel about 1:36:59.880 --> 1:37:00.439 the economy. 1:37:00.520 --> 1:37:02.120 So that will be interesting. 1:37:01.720 --> 1:37:05.439 To see, you know, we'll also see what the jobs 1:37:05.479 --> 1:37:09.960 reports will do. ADP will provide some data of employer payrolls. Again, 1:37:10.000 --> 1:37:13.439 ADP is a private sector business, so we can get 1:37:13.479 --> 1:37:15.559 some data. We're just not giving it getting it from 1:37:15.600 --> 1:37:16.800 a government's perspective. 1:37:17.120 --> 1:37:19.600 Okay, And we've got big companies that are going to 1:37:19.600 --> 1:37:21.559 report profits, and we'll have a bigger picture too. We'll 1:37:21.600 --> 1:37:25.280 see how how those influenced the markets coming up. We're 1:37:25.280 --> 1:37:27.479 all have a pretty good idea if these big large 1:37:27.520 --> 1:37:29.360 cap companies are the big ones here, like you know, 1:37:29.439 --> 1:37:32.880 Marathon and McDonald's, it doesn't get bigger than that. They 1:37:32.920 --> 1:37:34.240 report their earnings, we'll find out. 1:37:34.760 --> 1:37:37.000 Yeah, I mean, you know, right now it's earning season. 1:37:37.120 --> 1:37:38.960 You know, we want to make sure that we see 1:37:38.960 --> 1:37:41.880 how companies are going to continue to perform, you know, 1:37:41.920 --> 1:37:44.800 what their prospects are. We get guidance from them as well. 1:37:45.080 --> 1:37:46.639 You know, a lot of times you'll get on conference 1:37:46.720 --> 1:37:48.840 calls with some of the executives and they'll say, here's 1:37:49.000 --> 1:37:50.920 you know, here's what we think we look like over 1:37:50.960 --> 1:37:53.240 the next six months to a year. So that guidance 1:37:53.320 --> 1:37:54.960 is going to get them be important. We're going to 1:37:54.960 --> 1:37:56.880 get one hundred and twenty eight large cap companies that 1:37:56.920 --> 1:37:57.960 are going to report profits. 1:37:58.400 --> 1:37:58.479 Uh. 1:37:58.640 --> 1:38:01.680 You mentioned Marathon mcdonnalds Humana as well, so that will 1:38:01.720 --> 1:38:03.680 be interesting. And again we're gonna get a lot of 1:38:03.680 --> 1:38:05.880 FED speeches as we always do, so it'll be interesting 1:38:05.920 --> 1:38:07.960 to see what the FED has to say this week 1:38:08.000 --> 1:38:10.200 about the lack of data and what their guidance is 1:38:10.240 --> 1:38:11.160 moving forward as well. 1:38:11.479 --> 1:38:14.080 All Right, Andy Schaeffer, all Worth Financial. The show is 1:38:14.240 --> 1:38:17.400 simply money weeknights at six on fifty five KRC. He 1:38:17.479 --> 1:38:20.960 jumps in every Tuesday morning, talk about stuff that's happening 1:38:21.000 --> 1:38:25.280 and influencing your wallet, including geopolitics for that matter. Fascinating, fascinating. 1:38:25.800 --> 1:38:27.960 I feel like we should be smoking cigars, sitting in 1:38:27.960 --> 1:38:32.479 a room somewhere and scotch and plotting the overthrow of Maduro. 1:38:32.560 --> 1:38:34.320 All right, gotta go, Andy, appreciate it, but. 1:38:34.280 --> 1:38:36.200 All right, thanks, all right, set it up. I'll see 1:38:36.200 --> 1:38:36.439 you soon. 1:38:36.479 --> 1:38:38.920 All Right, there you go, big scotch drinker, that Andy Shaeffer, 1:38:38.960 --> 1:38:41.320 big Scotch drinker. Willie is on the way on this 1:38:41.439 --> 1:38:45.000 election day, on this November fourth, Ohio pulls up until 1:38:45.040 --> 1:38:47.479 seven thirty. Don't forget to bring that ID if you're 1:38:47.479 --> 1:38:50.600 headed out to do that and tomorrow we'll pick up 1:38:50.600 --> 1:38:54.120 the pieces of the election. A new mayor possibly unlikely, 1:38:54.160 --> 1:38:56.840 but possibly, there's always a chance Corey Bowman putting up 1:38:56.880 --> 1:39:01.200 a fight, and the makeup of council is definitely threatened 1:39:01.240 --> 1:39:03.040 by the crime and the bad news it surrounds our 1:39:03.040 --> 1:39:05.720 lovely city. Hopefully we can get a little bit of 1:39:05.760 --> 1:39:08.400 new blood in there and maybe change this dynamic for 1:39:08.439 --> 1:39:11.400 the better. Here, optimism abounds of the Home of the 1:39:11.400 --> 1:39:14.200 Best Bengals coverage with Logan Wilson being traded to Dallas 1:39:14.280 --> 1:39:17.439 Cowboys for a seventh round pick. They're making moves. Anything 1:39:17.520 --> 1:39:19.559 is possible if the Bengals are making moves before the 1:39:19.600 --> 1:39:22.640 trade deadline. Slowly seven hundred Dotivty, Cincinnati
