He's one of sixteen state 8 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: attorneys general who is supporting the Trump administration's pursuit of 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: the Narco terrorist boats in the golf and Alabama being 10 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: a golf coast state, I could definitely see where we're 11 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: Alabama is a part of that and here to join us, 12 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: join us on the hot line now. And he wrote 13 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: a great piece, Steve Marshall in the Washington Times with 14 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: the headline of Trump's Narco boat strikes saving American lives 15 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: and we're coming off another strike yesterday. Steve Marshall, welcome 16 00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: to the program. 17 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: Hey, good to be really gentling. 18 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: Happy new year, by the way, Happy new year. Talk 19 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: about that. 20 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 2: We've seen really strong efforts by this administration and look 21 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: just as recently as you described yesterday, taking out the 22 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 2: dock facility that was used to be able to upload 23 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 2: Fenton all that was coming into the United States, killing lives. 24 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: And this administration has been incredibly proactive and we're very 25 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 2: supportive of what President Trump's doing. 26 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, talk about when when all this got started, and 27 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: and and your you're involvement is it? Is it is 28 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: safe for to assume that because Alabama is on the 29 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: golf coast. UH got family down in fair Hope, Love 30 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: Love Alabama's golf coast, is UH? Is that part of 31 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: why you are so interested in this? And obviously you've 32 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: gone as far as you write your writing columns for 33 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: the Washington Times on it, You've signed this letter in 34 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: support of this. Uh. Has that been part of your 35 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: your involvement in it? 36 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: No doubt that's a part of it. But look, if 37 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 2: there's one thing that we learned from the Binding administration 38 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: is we're all border states. You know, when you don't 39 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: have a secure southern border. That's where the cartel was 40 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: using the effort to the Bide administration to have an 41 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 2: open border policy to flood this country with fenanol, which 42 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 2: was destrolling lives across the country. That your Attorney General 43 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: fought that battle, as we did in the opioid litigation. 44 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 2: This is just another vehicle in which we're trying to 45 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: make sure that we're saving lives. Because the Trump administration 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: has done such a good job affording the cartel. Now 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: at the southern border, they're using the Eastern Pacific as 48 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: a way of trying to bring the drugs into this 49 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: country again. And so you know, this is just along 50 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: the line of not only the effort that we're trying 51 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: to do to rid our communities of fentanyl and the 52 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 2: poison that its screened to the streets, but this is 53 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 2: a law enforcement issue as well, and the ability that 54 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: we have to support this administration and using the resources 55 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 2: available the intelligence as we've learned from Admiral Bradley that 56 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 2: the military has about who's on these boats, what's on 57 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: these boats, and how it is that these are targeting 58 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 2: our country. You know, I think it's important that we stand. 59 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: By Steve Marshall. I'm sure you get asked this question 60 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: a lot, because I know that I do, and we 61 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: hear the constant drumbeat from the left on this issue 62 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: and much of the mainstream media that Trump is not 63 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: on solid legal footing here By blowing these drug boats 64 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: out of the water, and they turned it up a 65 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: notch after the actions that were taking yesterday. When you 66 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: hear these arguments, and I'm sure people ask you these 67 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: questions all the time, how do you respond to that? 68 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, then where were they when Obama was using the 69 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: drone attacks? 70 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: Right? 71 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: I mean, this is just a different vehicle to try 72 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: to target is what I believe is the mastic tarioism 73 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: coming in our country. Look, President Trump is exercised as 74 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: law authority, as commander in chief to designate this in 75 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: a lower cartel as a terrorist organization. We have the 76 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 2: right as a sovereign nation to be able to protect 77 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: our country from the terroist activity. And look, I did 78 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: a little dig and if you compare the number of 79 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: people that we're losing the overdest deaths in our country 80 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: to those that are murdered violently on our streets, it's 81 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 2: an exponentially high number. Why shouldn't we try to protect 82 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: Americans in this way? And I think the President is 83 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 2: lawfully using that authorities commander in chief, trying to protect 84 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: our country. 85 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: Steve Steve Marshall, Alabama Attorney General, is our guests, and 86 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: you've been out the attorney general since twenty seventeen of 87 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: the great state of Alabama, and you're going to run 88 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: for to replace Tommy Tuberville in the US Senate. Steve 89 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: can you you were a district attorney for several years 90 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,679 Speaker 1: and now you're the state attorney general. You're a tough 91 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: guy on crime. You've been in politics and law for 92 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: a long time. And we think about this war on 93 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: drugs and I'm thinking I was a child of the 94 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: eighties myself. You remember just saying no, the Ronald Reagan years, 95 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: and yet we never took this step to really really 96 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: hit it head on, almost as if it's a war. 97 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 1: Can you can you can you speak to just how 98 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: big of a step this was to take this step 99 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: that the minute the Trump administration has taken this step 100 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: to really, I mean literally attack this, really declare war 101 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: on you in the drug war. 102 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 2: You know, we've never seen in our country, even back 103 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 2: when you know, cocaine was it as highest. The the 104 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 2: overdose and the loss of lives that have been caused 105 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 2: as a result to particularly a Fennel that. 106 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: We're now seeing. 107 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: And what I love is the echoing of those who 108 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: previously worked in this fight saying that we wish that 109 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: we had a leader that had given us the authority 110 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 2: to be able to do this. But President Trump is 111 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: simply exercising the authority of the law as existed for 112 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 2: a while. He is simply the one that's had the 113 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: courage and the willingness to be able to implement it 114 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 2: in a way that's been aggressive and been targeted and 115 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 2: attacking what has clearly been the problem. It's why it's 116 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: nice for somebody who lived it on the street, to 117 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: the local prosecutor who had to deal with the impact 118 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: of the cartel and our community. When I look at 119 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 2: our drug trafficking rates, you know, this is a president 120 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: who said we're not going to allow this in our country. 121 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 2: We're going to do everything that we can to stop it. 122 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 2: And look, I commend them for having the courage and 123 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: the fortitude to say that we're going to stand on 124 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 2: principle that we're going to stand to be able to 125 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 2: defend our people and use the authority already granted to 126 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 2: us with the power of our military and the precision 127 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: strikes they're able to get. And look, we're already seeing 128 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 2: a difference. You know. It's interesting the way that we 129 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: judge sometimes whether we're effective on the drug fight is 130 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: are we making the drugs more expensive? You know, it's 131 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 2: a traditional supply and demand argument there. And what I'm 132 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 2: hearing from the men and women on the streets of 133 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 2: Alabama who are fighting us every day is they're seeing 134 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 2: less fenol and they're seeing it costs more to the 135 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 2: people that are trying to use it. That means is 136 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: presidence making the difference? 137 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean the one reason that the big reason 138 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 1: is that these boats come here out of Venezuela or 139 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: wherever else they come out of out mainly out of 140 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: South America I imagine, or Mexico across the border. The 141 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 1: main reason they come here is because they make a 142 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: hell of a lot of money doing it. And so 143 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: you just said you use the term supply and demand. 144 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: So when you look at the demand side of the equation, 145 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: what is it more up to the federal government to 146 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: look at that or the states have a bigger role 147 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: on that side. 148 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 3: Of the thin Yeah? 149 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 2: I think the states have an outsize role there, Dan, 150 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 2: And particularly when I look at the work that we 151 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: as attorneys general did across the country and bringing needed 152 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: resources into our states. For example, in Alabama, we collected 153 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 2: almost three quarters of a billion dollars to be able 154 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: to fight addiction in our state, and proud to see 155 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: just an Alabama highlight is that we've reduced over those 156 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 2: about over twenty percent in our state already, and much 157 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 2: of that is targeted dollars at the local levels. We 158 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 2: know the issues and know the problems, but the one 159 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 2: thing I think that we've been able to do is 160 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: to figure out how do we allocate the resources to 161 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 2: make sure that we have creeping up opportunities for people 162 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: that are desperately needing it. How is it that we 163 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: can fund law enforcement in a way that they can 164 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: reduce the problems that are on the streets, and then 165 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 2: how do we educate our medical professionals on how to 166 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: deal with the addiction most effectively. And I think we're 167 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: seeing strong results as a result of the litigation that 168 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 2: we had, and really proud of the collect efforts with 169 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: Dave Jost to help lead that charge with the NBL 170 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: that was based there in Ohio, and glad that we're 171 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: now enabling states, cities, and counties to be able to 172 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 2: attack this needed problem. 173 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: I love the Steve Marshall, Alabama Attorney General, joins us 174 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: here on the Eddy and Rocky Show, and I love 175 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: this sentence or this paragraph and your peace in the 176 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: Washington Times quote. Those feigning concern at this point simply 177 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: highlight negligence in addressing this crisis previously, as it's clear 178 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: that it didn't arise out of nowhere. In twenty twenty three, 179 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: as Attorney General of Alabama, I and twenty one other 180 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: attorneys general wrote to President Biden and Secretary of State 181 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln urging the administration to take swift action against 182 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: drug overdoses. At the time, more than one hundred thousand 183 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: Americans had lost their lives during the previous six years. 184 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 1: Some sixty six percent of those deaths were attributed to 185 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: synthetic opioids such as fentanyl. The nation was at an 186 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: unmistakable tipping point that required a strong American leadership. My 187 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: question is, in all your years too, as a district 188 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: attorney as well, when you've looked at and you've seen 189 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: crime of all kinds, how much of the crime, even 190 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: if it wasn't directly a drug trafficking case, that you 191 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: were you know, you were prosecuting, how much of the 192 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: crimes that you dealt with in some way indirectly or directly, 193 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: you have to do with drugs, drug use, drug trafficking, 194 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: somehow some way, drug involvement, you know, murders, violent crimes, anything. 195 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: I'm willing I would bet that probably most of them 196 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: right now. 197 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: It is you think, for example, when we deal with 198 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 2: child abuse and neglect, they're the direct nexus there between 199 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 2: addiction and what's going on in those that are harming 200 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: our kids. You describe violent crime, Look, we see it 201 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: all the time, the battle that takes place over trafficking 202 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 2: routes and those that are engaged in distribution. And then 203 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: simply the impact that we see not only in our 204 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 2: criminal justice system, but in our healthcare system about those 205 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 2: that are fighting this addiction. And it's why again so 206 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 2: pleased that through an election and through strong leadership, we've 207 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 2: seen the script absolutely flip on this issue across our country. 208 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 2: Donald Trump said, We're going to take aggressive action in 209 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: those that are bringing into our country, and then we've 210 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 2: seen a renewed focus and fight around how it is 211 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 2: that we deal with this issue. We didn't see it 212 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 2: during the Biden administration. It's almost as if there was 213 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: a blind eye much of the progress that we had 214 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 2: made in fighting opiod addiction there in the original Trump 215 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: administration completely banned. With the change in the administration, they 216 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: were too worried about girls playing against boys in sports 217 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: as opposed to worrying about the true public health crisis 218 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: that we had in our country. And I'm really pleased 219 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 2: to see this administration making a difference on this issue 220 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: because we need see. 221 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: I've got one more question for you, And the strike 222 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: yesterday makes thirty boats so far that the Trump administration 223 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: has blown out of the water. Then we had the 224 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: specter a week or so ago of the Venezuelan and 225 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: oil tankers, I think two or three of them we've 226 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: taken out of commission. So far they've taken we haven't 227 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: blown those out of the water, but we've taken control 228 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: of those oil tankers. And then we had the strike 229 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: on the boat dock the other day. Do you have 230 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: a sense that number one, that these guys are going 231 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: to get the message no matter how fast these boats are, 232 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: it's not a good idea to do this anymore. And 233 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: do you have a sense that this is going to 234 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: escalate much beyond what we saw yesterday? 235 00:11:59,120 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 4: Yeah? 236 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 2: I think one thing is clearly we're hearing it and toutterly. 237 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: Is the to turn effect. 238 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 5: It's already going on. 239 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,599 Speaker 2: I mean, look, at some point people are going to 240 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 2: say that only going out of the water, and that's 241 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: exactly what the present is doing. We take that aggressive 242 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 2: accent calling them to change their behavior. But look, we 243 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: got to recognize the cartel. They're pretty good at what 244 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 2: they do. And while they went away from the southern 245 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 2: border try and then use the navigable routes to be 246 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: able to bring the drugs in, we're going to see 247 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 2: them sort of move to a different area. I think 248 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: this administration has made this a priority. They can continue 249 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 2: to do the intelligence work and we're going to find them, 250 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 2: attack them wherever they're going to go next. But I 251 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 2: think we're already seeing the impact of what President Trump's doing, 252 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: and that is were douce boats coming from that country. 253 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: Steve Marshall, great stuff. Just appreciate your approach to this, 254 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: Appreciate your approach to the fighting crime. And I'll tell 255 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: you what, common sense can go a long way, and 256 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: you're you're speaking that common sense and appreciate you you're 257 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: taking all this time for us. 258 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: Happy. Hey, look we got a football playoffs going on. 259 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: Let's see what our states are doing. 260 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: Absolutely break down those games once once we know what 261 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: the finals are, would be great, Happy, Happy New Year, Steve, 262 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. So there you go. There's a 263 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: strong supporter of Trump and then the whole notion of 264 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: taking out these these narco terrorist boats. And it's a 265 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: it's amazing that we have an entire political apparatus now 266 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: that is coming out in support of narco terrorists, saying, well, 267 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: you know, they're just fishermen out there trying to earn 268 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: a living. Well, no they're not. You know, they know 269 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: they're they're bringing in these these horrible drugs. Hundreds of 270 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: thousands of Americans dead. And how is that any different 271 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: than if they were toting, you know, giant machine guns, 272 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: pulled up on the shore and set the machine guns 273 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 1: up and started open fire on American citizens. I mean, 274 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: the end result is the same, lots of dead Americans, right, 275 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you you had to do something different here. 276 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: The war on drugs is, like we said, it's been 277 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: happening for over forty years since the Reagan administration early 278 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: to mid eighties. It's still coming in here. I mean, Steve, 279 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: Steve Marshall laid it out pretty clearly, clearly, I mean 280 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: he had he had a stat in there that what 281 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: the fentanyl crisis is, opoid crisis has killed more than 282 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: than America lost in World War Two. I mean, come on, now, 283 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: something had to be something else had to be done here, 284 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: and this is what's being done.

And that brings the grand 333 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: total now that's going to go to Frost Brown Todd 334 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: to forty nine thousand dollars for this investigation and it'll 335 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: be up at six figures here before long. I really, 336 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: I mean, do you really think there's anything out there 337 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: on Terry Thiji. The only thing she's guilty of is 338 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 1: trying to serve the Master of the city, who is 339 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: the city manager at city Hall, and acquiesced to her 340 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: Rishes and still try to run a legitimate police department. 341 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: That's the only thing she's guilty of, if you ask me, 342 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: I mean, Terry Soathiji was always a highly respected police 343 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: officer and rose to the ranks. And I can't remember 344 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: who was the mayor when she was appointed. Was she 345 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: appointed the chief under af taber to Cranley end of 346 00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: his tenure. I'm thinking it was John Cranley in the 347 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 1: last It doesn't but you know, this is this is 348 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: this is a West Side uh, you know, native through 349 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: and through. Uh, you know, law enforcement and her family 350 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: through and through. I mean, my only my only complaint 351 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: with Teresa Thiji was like she had a weird press 352 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: conference after one of the shootings on fountains. That was 353 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 1: not her, That was not her final, her finest moment, 354 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: but like, is that that to me? Certainly that wasn't 355 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: a fireable offence? And then that and then where she 356 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: after the beatdown that happened down there on uh what 357 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: was the fifth street? Uh, you know, she's fourth Street, 358 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: fourth Street. She blamed the media for rerunning the video 359 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: over and over and over again. Yeah, that was Yeah, 360 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: that was a couple of couple of like lectures there 361 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: from her that was kind of like, eh, fireable offense, 362 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, is that the worst thing that 363 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: she's done? I mean is that, you know, is a 364 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: city manager going to front on that and Steven mm 365 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the statement that he put out. The 366 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: mayor and city manager should be ashamed of themselves for 367 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: continuing this raid of an investigation. This was nothing but 368 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: a citical and political stunt from the start. It is 369 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: a disgrace that the city's leadership is now continuing to 370 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: sacrifice the career and reputation of such a dedicated and 371 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: devoted public servant. Terry Figi is a leader the city 372 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: can be proud of. The same cannot be said for 373 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: the people who continue to leave her twisting in the 374 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: wind for no good reason. This sham has already gone 375 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: on for far too long. Chief Fiji has already suffered 376 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: far too much. And those are the words of Steam 377 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: and m the employment attorney under the auspices of the 378 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 1: Finny law Fer don't mess with the lawfer. Those guys 379 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: they're making her career on on, on their dealings with 380 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: the city. It is. It is absolutely amazing so that 381 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: that's going to continue on and again. I know he's 382 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: got his offices over there not too far from well. 383 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: It's funny thinking back when I covered politics, when I 384 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: first started covering politics, like I talked to Finny and man, 385 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 1: that guy can be he can be intimidating just by 386 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: just by his just by who he is. I'm not 387 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: it's not a criticism like Myers remember having some pretty 388 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: pretty spirited conversations with him about some what was it? 389 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 4: Uh? 390 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: What was this? Oh? I think it was like maybe 391 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: street car stuff. Oh yeah, wicked, wicked, smart, unbelievable and uh, 392 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: you know everyone that works for him is uh is 393 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: top notch. Well everyone, let me ask you this. I 394 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: want to well say this, like I want to go 395 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 1: as far as to say, I know, I know Steven 396 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: m good statement from him. I throw city council in 397 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: there too, and I understand city council, Like, this is 398 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: what bugs me about that. You know, I wrote this 399 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 1: kind of open letter after the brawl to the mayor 400 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 1: and city council, and I get a call from a 401 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: from a from a political insight or oh, well, you 402 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: know you should have put the city manager and the 403 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 1: police chief in there, that they're they're the ones who 404 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: are really more in charge of this, And I'm like, no, no, no, no, 405 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: it's the elected officials. Those are the people that need 406 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 1: the bucks needs to stop with them, because those are 407 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 1: the those are the folks that not you or I 408 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: vote for. But certainly you know we you know, at 409 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: least I do with the inquirer. I work in the 410 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: city and uh, you know, we all go to Red's 411 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: games and Bengals games, and you know, a strong city 412 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: is important to all of us, whether we live there 413 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: or live in Wyoming or Anderson Township. But the fact 414 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: that city Council just sits by and says nothing about 415 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: this like that bugs me and the group think it 416 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with In my mind, it has 417 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: nothing to do with whatever the It just so happens 418 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: to be the Democratic party. But the group think that's 419 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 1: going on at city Hall. This is the this is 420 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: what you get with one party rule.

And you know, the factions 426 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: of of of council. Now look the Gang of Five stuff, 427 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: the criminal stuff, no, obviously not good, but the debate 428 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: part of the factions of folks that didn't see eyed 429 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: eye that debate piece of that good thing. That's good thing. 430 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: Like that's a good thing. Like hey if if you 431 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: know when Chris Sielbach thought, you know, was stood on 432 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 1: this side of something and uh, you know, I don't 433 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: know PG sitting Veld or Christopher Smith and stood on 434 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: this side of it. You know, Uh, people can debate that, 435 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: and that's a good thing. Like but now it's like 436 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: it's everybody ever though, hunky dory, and no one's gonna 437 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: say a word, like, you know, why does it someone 438 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: stand up and say, you know what, let's end this, 439 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: like let's yeah, well, this is someone who this is 440 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 1: a chief who was always in good standing at a 441 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: fantastic career. We're really going to try to destroy her 442 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: at the end of the career, end of her career 443 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: here because crime has gone up, you know in the 444 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: city over the last whatever X amount of years violent crime. 445 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: Really yeah, you know, but back when when the beatdown 446 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: was happening and that video was running seemingly twenty four 447 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: hours a day on cable news, and you know, the 448 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: city looked like an absolute joke in the in the 449 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: national spotlight. Yeah, you really, you couldn't find most city 450 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: council members with a search warrant, right, And I'm in 451 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: Scott Sloan because he's got great contacts with a lot 452 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: of members of city Hall, the ones that he the 453 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: ones that he did have, he had on one or 454 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: two council members came on and talked to Sloaney about it, 455 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 1: and they essentially said, well, you know, well, we haven't 456 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,919 Speaker 1: heard anything from the city manager. We don't know anything. 457 00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: We have been briefed on this and it didn't get 458 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: a phone call, uh late at night tell us what's happening. 459 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: But so so that that you know that that may 460 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: be one side of that coin at the day the 461 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: other side manager is hired and fired by the council. 462 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: That's what I was going to say. These city council 463 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: members can get together and demand that the city manager 464 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: come before them and explain to them what the hell 465 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: is going on, whether they do that in the public 466 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: setting or a private setting, which is what used to 467 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: happen a long at city Hall. I know, Sir John 468 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: Cranley and Mark Mallory, and then that city may passed 469 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: the buck. That's just a reflection of the poor leadership 470 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: that has gone on there for for god knows how long. 471 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: And and I mean who else, I mean, how much 472 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: more is going on at City Hall that we don't 473 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: know about because none of these city council members and they, 474 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: like you said, they're all there just to go along, 475 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: to get along, you know, some good pr get re elected, 476 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: and you know, you know, it's not like they're making 477 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: a ton of money doing this, but they're not serving 478 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: the city and the people of Cincinnati all that well 479 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: by by doing things the way that they do it. 480 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: It's it's frustrating, and it's frustrating to it's just frustrating 481 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: to see what's become of City Hall. And you know, 482 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: there was and I think a part of what's happening 483 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: now at City Hall is that the the and I'm 484 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: collectively I'm saying here, I'm not necessarily saying pointing fingers 485 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: at any one individual, but collectively, I think that there 486 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: was such a concern about, you know, the pr of 487 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 1: city Hall, the Gang of Five, the previous the previous 488 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: councils in recent years, the Gang of Five, the you know, 489 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: the the corrupt federal corruption stuff with a handful of 490 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: council members. So I think collectively, this mayor and city 491 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: council are like, oh no, like see where where that's 492 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: not us? And so I think part of the whole 493 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: go along to get along is that so that none, nobody, 494 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: no one gets labeled as like and it's like no, no, no, no, no. 495 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: Now you've gone to the other extreme here, Like healthy 496 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: debate over policy is a good thing. Healthy debate over 497 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: whether you should continue to investigate the police chief or 498 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: former police chief is a good thing. Like no one's 499 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: saying you gotta go on Twitter and say nasty things 500 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: about your colleague that sits two seats away. No one's 501 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 1: saying you got but like you know, it's it's now, 502 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 1: it's like whatever the mayor says, like, oh well, we 503 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: don't want to cross the mayor. And and the thing 504 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: is we had before we had a strong headed mayor 505 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 1: with John Cranley, and there were people who weren't who 506 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: weren't afraid on that council, who were in the same 507 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: party as him, who weren't afraid to stand up to him, 508 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: and vice versa. He wasn't afraid to stand up to them. 509 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: You know, there was a time that like generally on 510 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: the face of it was a good thing. There was 511 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: a time when the City of Cincinnati had an Office 512 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: of Municipal Investigation. I think that office still exists, but 513 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: I know that that OMI that that office had enough 514 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: respect and enough integrity that if they didn't invent instigation, 515 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: it was pretty much, uh, you know what, whatever they 516 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: whatever their conclusions were, it was was pretty much you 517 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: could take it to the bank. And I don't know 518 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: that we have that kind of confidence in what goes 519 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 1: on in city Hall anymore. And this is what I 520 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: love about when you and I do the show.

Was a 529 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 4: DEI hire. And you know, the city Council are just 530 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,719 Speaker 4: a creature of the folks that elect him. And unfortunately 531 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 4: we've gotten a position where the folks that elect our 532 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 4: elected leaders, not just in since and I've been across 533 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 4: the country, don't have any skin in the game. Well, 534 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 4: they're not going to. 535 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: Now, I'm gonna I'm gonna take it. I'm going to 536 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: take issue with you, Jeff on the on the notion 537 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: that she was a DEEI yeah, thirty years in the 538 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Police Department. Uh so what before she became chief? 539 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: What she was? What? Twenty five twenty six years? Somewhere 540 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: around there. I talked to a lot of people who 541 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: have passed and pressed police department, you beat me to it, 542 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,239 Speaker 1: who were perfectly fine with her being hired because of 543 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: the amounts of experience she had came up through the 544 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: ranks and and and the you know we we had 545 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,959 Speaker 1: uh we had tried this notion and I and I 546 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: forget where this notion came from. That you know what, 547 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: when after Tom Striker was the police chief, it was 548 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: decided that we need to do national searches for police chiefs. 549 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 1: We need to go out and find the very best 550 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: from all reaches of the kind of when when it 551 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: turns out the best people to run the Cincinnati Police 552 00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: Department are homegrown people. We did, we had I'm drawing 553 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: a blank on his name. He went to Detroit. Oh yeah, 554 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: uh he was fantastic. Well, yeah, he was good. But 555 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: here's the thing, why am I can see uh yeah, yeah, yeah, 556 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: Chief Craig. But the thing is he he was not 557 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: licensed to carry a gun in the time. I thought, 558 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: I thought they could, they could have found some middle 559 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: ground there and worked that whole thing out, but that 560 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: never happened. But nonetheless, he was a good chief. He 561 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: was a good chie. Yeah, he was a good chief. 562 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: Isaac was a solid chief. He's a hometown guy. But 563 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: but I think in the long run, though, I think 564 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: it turns out that the best chiefs are the ones 565 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: who come up through the system, who have respect and 566 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: and have a working knowledge of the history, the long, 567 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: the really the long and proud history of the Cincinnati 568 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: Police depart There was a time in this country when 569 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: everyone I talked to who looked at this police department 570 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: from the outside said, without a doubt, Cincinnati has got 571 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: the best police model in the entire country. And I 572 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 1: don't think I think we're still looked at his pretty good. 573 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: Are we the best police department in the country anymore? 574 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if we can lay claim to that, 575 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: but that's probably a tough thing. To gauge. To be honest, 576 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: who who is the best police department? That's a yeah. 577 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, because every every every place has their 578 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: unique things to their to their When you talk about 579 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: ethics and integrity, I think we have right. No, no, 580 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: that we had that in abundance. We got to get 581 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, now, I don't know do we have a well, 582 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do some silly segue. We just gotta 583 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: get the traffic on weather. 584 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 6: From the UC Health Traffic Center.

Did she actually get that money? 639 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 7: Lease elden Lee Elden claudeed all back. He drawn into 640 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 7: some sort of city bank account that was supposed to 641 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 7: then approve because Democrats set up this sort of green 642 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 7: bank and that was a way to get the tax 643 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 7: dollars somewhere that they could get their hands on it, 644 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 7: out of the federal government on a bank that they 645 00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 7: all had an ATM card. And the current EPA administrator, 646 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 7: Lee Zelden, was able to shut that down and claw 647 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 7: the money back. But you know, it's a great poll 648 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 7: and it's a great analogy. We're talking about Somali daycare 649 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 7: and how much they have stolen, but how much was stolen. 650 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: In green energy? 651 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 7: You remember that interview with Margaret Brennan and Secretary of 652 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 7: Transportation Pete Buddhaje Edge where she says, you know, you've 653 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 7: spent eight billion dollars and you haven't built seven charging 654 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 7: stations and. 655 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: Yet ate sure, yeah, what's the difference? Where did the 656 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: money go? 657 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 5: That was eight billion. 658 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 7: Dollars and he didn't even know if they built seven 659 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 7: or eight. Right, We spent forty two billion dollars for 660 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 7: broadband for all no one got broadband, but the money 661 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 7: got pissed away. So the Somali stuff is the tip 662 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 7: of the iceberg. And I think it is an opportunity, 663 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 7: no doubt, to galvanize the right. But it is a 664 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 7: huge liability for the president and Republicans because if nothing. 665 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 5: Happens, you know what, you try putting a shed. 666 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 7: On your back yard and you get taxed and fine 667 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 7: and the city council is up your butt, and you know, 668 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 7: try try doing anything, Try venmoing six hundred dollars and 669 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 7: the I R. 670 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: S wants to know where the money went. 671 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 7: But these scumbags are stealing tens of billions of dollars. 672 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 7: So this could be a huge liability for the right 673 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 7: if there is not accountability. 674 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: And why why you bring that up, Daniel Turner? You 675 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: bring up the Somali daycare uh topic Uh? Looking around 676 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 1: the country and you cover the country and you write 677 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: so many things, you know, regarding policy and politics that 678 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: effects and impacts all over the country. Would you be 679 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: surprised if there are pockets of daycare fraud or daycare 680 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: related types of businesses? What was the other business healthcare, 681 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:50,720 Speaker 1: home healthcare, health care and and not and I'm not 682 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: not just not just of one group of people or 683 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: what or not? Like do you think this is a 684 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: rampant thing nationwide? Absolutely? 685 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 7: I don't think you can have this level of money 686 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 7: and movement of money without there being a decent amount 687 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 7: of theft. 688 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 5: That's to be expected. 689 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 7: What isn't to be expected as the complacency of elected officials. 690 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 7: And I think the reason why we're experiencing that is 691 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 7: because and this is an accusation of just one party, 692 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 7: because it seems to be the Democrats. But when you 693 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:26,760 Speaker 7: realize how many Somali daycare centers then wrote campaign checks 694 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 7: to Democrat elected officials, you realize, well, that's why they 695 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 7: turned a blind eye. 696 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:32,240 Speaker 1: Like we look, we. 697 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 7: Understand construction unions. You know, I had a couple of 698 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 7: Italian uncles who may have worked in some back in 699 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 7: the day, right, Like they always get like their money 700 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 7: and the projects never really get built, but their guy 701 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 7: got you know, mayor of New York back in the 702 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 7: day when Mayor of New York not anymore. 703 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 1: But there's always been a little bit of a of a. 704 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 7: Relationship between federal or local tax dollars, projects, projects that 705 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 7: never materialized, and people getting elected. But we're seeing a 706 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 7: level of fraud here that is monumental. And at the 707 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 7: same time you see Democrats saying, text, the rich pay 708 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 7: your fair share. There's not enough money for the starving 709 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 7: children go to bed to starving every night. And you say, WHOA, 710 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 7: maybe if we had fewer Somli daycare centers, we'd have 711 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 7: money for those children. 712 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: So I think we're at a tipping point, no doubt. Yeah, 713 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: every time you turn around, there is fraud on top 714 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: of fraud. I'm looking at a report that just came 715 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: out and I didn't even know this was that. The 716 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: National Center for Energy Analytics was something that existed, but 717 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 1: they did a study of all the government subsidies that 718 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 1: went to the energy sector in the year twenty twenty five. 719 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: Ninety percent, Daniel Turner of those subsidies went to renewables renewables, 720 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 1: sixty four zero point one billion dollars for renewables. The 721 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: rest of it went to oil companies and fossil fuels. 722 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: But when you look at that, I mean, it is 723 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: just another staggering amount of money that got wasted. And 724 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: of course this was the Green New scam, the Green 725 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: New Deal. And I think from an economic sense that 726 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: once all this kind of fraud is wiped out, because 727 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: we're talking about, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars 728 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: with the fraud, at some point that's got to make 729 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: a difference to the bottom line, does it not? 730 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 7: It does, And it also shows the importance of what 731 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 7: our founders tried to set up, which was a system 732 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 7: of federalism, because the Minnesota problem would be really unfortunate 733 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 7: and aggravating for Minnesotans. But it's not Minnesotans, right, it's 734 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 7: Washington's money. And now you have to scratch your head 735 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 7: and say, why the hell does Washington have to send 736 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 7: Minnesota so that they can open daycare centers for people 737 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 7: who live in their state. Why don't they open their 738 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 7: own damn daycare centers? Why does Washington have to send 739 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,280 Speaker 7: you money to New Jersey so that they can build 740 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 7: a solar farm or a wind farm off the coast 741 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 7: of the Atlantic. Why does the federal why does everything 742 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 7: get controlled from DC? And then you realize, oh, well, 743 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 7: that's why people like Pelosi stay there for forty fifty years. 744 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 7: Is Schumer who's been there since nineteen seventy two, right, 745 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,760 Speaker 7: That's why everyone wants to be That's why everyone runs 746 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 7: for office. So if we could go back to the 747 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 7: system of our founders, maybe for our two hundred and 748 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 7: fiftieth we can the only way to solve this is 749 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 7: to get the money to hell out of Washington, DC. 750 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,959 Speaker 7: And if Minnesota has a fraud problem, that's too damn bad. 751 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 7: I'm sorry, but Minnesota's fraud problem is my money that's 752 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 7: being stolen. There you go, and that's not federalism, and 753 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 7: that's a problem. 754 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: Daniel love your piece on Power of the Future. It 755 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: was a Washington reporter, your predictions, your energy policy predictions 756 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty six, and you had three really good ones, 757 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 1: and love these, love these kinds of breakdowns. As a 758 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 1: columnist for the local paper myself, I want to jump 759 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: to or the third point you made your prediction is 760 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: climate litigation galore and basically the climate the climate activists 761 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,399 Speaker 1: are on their heels and you wrote that really they 762 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: all they've got really left is to use know, we'll 763 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: go with lawsuits. You talk about that a little bit, 764 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: and yeah, it is desperation time, right it is. 765 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 7: And I appreciate you giving that a shout out. And 766 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 7: I think if you're in this space, the climate space, 767 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 7: you've lost a lot of money. Because we talked about 768 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 7: that earlier. Lee Zelden took a lot of money back 769 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 7: and US A I D was closed. You've lost a 770 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 7: lot of cachet right that the big climate conference was 771 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 7: just a couple of weeks ago. Dan and I spoke 772 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 7: about it, and this nighttime show, no one even went. 773 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 7: No one cool went right, Bono didn't. 774 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: Go in Brazil, right, yes, oh yeah, no one went 775 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 1: to that newsom went to it, right, Like. 776 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 5: I said, nobody cool went to it at. 777 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 1: All, So yeah, I forgot you. You clarify that by 778 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:47,919 Speaker 1: saying nobody cool. 779 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 7: And their star activist is Greta Thunberg. 780 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: And and she even she's jump ship. 781 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 7: She's now on to kill the Jews that campaign, right, 782 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 7: and that's all she cares about now is she hates 783 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 7: Israel and she the Jews. So even the greatest climate 784 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 7: activists they had, little tiny Greta is no longer caring 785 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,280 Speaker 7: about climate change. And so if you're in the climate space, 786 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 7: you're kind of disheartened. But you always have the courts. 787 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 7: And that is why they fought tooth and nail in 788 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 7: Biden's midterms to keep the Senate, which they did. 789 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: Remember, we drained half. 790 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 7: The Strategic Petroleum Reserve to keep oil prices low to 791 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 7: keep the Senate, and they kept the Senate. 792 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: And when you keep the Senate. 793 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 7: You get your judges through, and Biden confirmed hundreds. 794 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: Of judges and they're all a bunch of lunatics. 795 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 7: So this is what you're going to do in all 796 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 7: of twenty twenty six as anytime something happens, lawsuit, lossuit, lossuit, lawsuit. 797 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 7: And that's what the climate movement will do for this 798 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 7: next coming year, is will be litigation and activism. I 799 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,399 Speaker 7: think you'll start seeing people lay down in traffic again, 800 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 7: crazily with their hands to the street. You know, cup 801 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,320 Speaker 7: of soup on your favorite van go, we'll see that again. 802 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 7: Absolutely never works, Daniel Turner. When you look back at 803 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 7: the ear twenty twenty five and you look at it 804 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 7: from a political standpoint, it's got to begin and end 805 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 7: with Trump. And I look at the wild card right now, 806 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 7: which I think is Zorahan Mandani. Right before you came on, 807 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 7: we've got Fox News on the monitor over here on 808 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 7: the wall, and they were rolling some video of Mondanni 809 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,359 Speaker 7: and I thought about that and it made me think 810 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 7: they are They are pretty much look up to him 811 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 7: now like some kind of god. Do you see the 812 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 7: Democrats going full socialists now? Because of the success of 813 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 7: Mandanni in New York. 814 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: City, absolutely. 815 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 7: You know, they're they're moderate active, they're moderate players. Someone 816 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 7: like John Fetterman now has become the most moderate are 817 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 7: going to be actively primary. You know, they've they've lost 818 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:53,760 Speaker 7: that sort of mainstream appeal. And that's really unfortunate because 819 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 7: we were a better country when we had two parties 820 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 7: and a clash of ideas. But we don't have two 821 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 7: parties anymore. There's still a very strong UNI Party in Washington. 822 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,479 Speaker 1: D C. And now there's just this this. 823 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 7: Insane, vehemently America hating Christian Judeo, Christian hating Hamas supporting, 824 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 7: just insane wing of the Democrat Party. Zora Momdami is 825 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 7: a wonderful example of that. Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Cassio Cortes. Uh, 826 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 7: there's there's there are several prominent and they're younger, they 827 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 7: raise more money, they get more airtime. 828 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:27,280 Speaker 1: Uh. 829 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 7: They inspire crowds, which I guess isn't something to. 830 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: Be proud of. 831 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 7: Some some bad guys in history used to inspire crowds 832 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 7: to but that's what they do and I think that's 833 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 7: where the party attention is. 834 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if moderate voices. 835 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 7: Are going to be allowed in in the Democrat Party anymore. 836 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 1: Isn't this a fool's errand to think that this is 837 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: going to appeal to a broader, uh, you know, broader electorate, 838 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 1: whether it's a statewide US Senate race or you know, 839 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: obviously a nationwide presidential race. Because when you really dig 840 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: down in the nuance of where the socialists are are 841 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: elected or whatever, you know, it's, uh, they're they're very 842 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:12,399 Speaker 1: gerrymannered districts, or it's in the case of New York 843 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: mayor's race, it was really two there was a third 844 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,400 Speaker 1: party candidate in there who took votes away, and in 845 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 1: Cuomo no one likes him after COVID. Uh So if 846 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: you would have had you would have had a John 847 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,400 Speaker 1: Fetterman type going up head to head with Zoron Mandami. Uh. 848 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: I think I think the kind of the normal Democrat 849 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: wins that. 850 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:31,399 Speaker 2: Right. 851 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 1: It is there nuance to all this when you really 852 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,280 Speaker 1: dig down into it, And again, is it a fool's 853 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 1: errand for for the Democratic Party as a whole to 854 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 1: think that this is going to appeal to a broader electorate. 855 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 7: Well, you would think they would have learned their lesson 856 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 7: with Kamala and they tried to make her a more moderate, 857 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 7: mainstream voice, but the American people knew who she was 858 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 7: and they overwhelmingly rejected her. 859 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 5: You know, you take someone like Alexandria. 860 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 7: Cassio Cortez, who's right now this second leading candidate for 861 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 7: the twenty twenty eight nomination behind Gavin Newsom, and you say, hey, 862 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 7: in New York City, right, she's a popular on the 863 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 7: national TV circuit.

I don't 995 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I remember being surprised when I 996 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 1: pulled up to the pump and I jumped out of 997 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: the car because you know, we all pump our own 998 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:51,080 Speaker 1: gas now and uh, nope, sir, stay in the car. 999 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna do that for you now. New Jersey is 1000 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: about that. That's interesting New Jersey. Remember do you remember 1001 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 1: those days when you were a kid when there was 1002 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 1: a tenant to pumpt your gas or I used to 1003 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: be the attendant. Oh that was That was one of 1004 00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 1: my jobs when I was growing up. I worked at 1005 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,920 Speaker 1: a couple of different gas stations and I had the 1006 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:14,759 Speaker 1: I had the the change clicker on my on my 1007 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: belt so people would call up, you know what, they 1008 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 1: pull in just say fill it up? So you'd you 1009 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,560 Speaker 1: and and back then, well I guess, I guess it's 1010 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:28,320 Speaker 1: the same way now. But back then, you know, the 1011 00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 1: the locations for the for the gas was all over, 1012 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: you know, and all over different spots of the car. 1013 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 1: So the different models of the car, you had to 1014 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 1: know where where the you know, where you put the 1015 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 1: gas in. A lot of the GM models back in 1016 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:42,719 Speaker 1: the day had the license plate that would fold down 1017 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 1: and the gas and the gas nozzle was you know, 1018 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 1: the receptacle was back there, so you had a plan 1019 00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 1: of pull the plate down and then stick the gas 1020 00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 1: in there. But uh, yeah, people would pull up and 1021 00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:57,280 Speaker 1: it would stop on you know, seven dollars and sixty 1022 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 1: one cents and they'd hand you a twenty dollars billion. 1023 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 1: You got to make change now, so so you had 1024 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,920 Speaker 1: that clicker on your belt, you know, pennies, dimes, nicols quarters, 1025 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 1: so boom boom boom, and and you remember them. You 1026 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 1: count up. You would count up to the nearest dollar yes, 1027 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: and then uh and then make change and then and 1028 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 1: so I got very good at making change. When I 1029 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 1: was a young lad, a teenager, we had what what 1030 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 1: was your station? That was the Ohio station. Yeah, I 1031 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 1: remember that was the Ohio station. Right across from the 1032 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 1: L Ranking we had where Rancho Ranking. Is that a restaurant? Uh? 1033 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 1: A bar? The L Rancho Ranking was a hotel that 1034 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,160 Speaker 1: you could you could rent rooms by the hour. It 1035 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 1: was how are we looking? But you know you could 1036 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:49,080 Speaker 1: you could rent room for you could rent a room 1037 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,879 Speaker 1: for a week, for a month, and you could run 1038 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 1: them by the hour. Is uh? And there there's a 1039 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 1: lot of there's probably a lot of people listening to 1040 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 1: us right now, so people that I could tell some 1041 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,239 Speaker 1: stories about the old L Ranch Ranking Rancho ran right 1042 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 1: down there at the bottom of the hill. What's is there? 1043 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 1: Any is a building torn down or it's long gone. 1044 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,400 Speaker 1: Now there's a there's a used to be a grocery 1045 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 1: store there and that got torn down. And now there's 1046 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:19,760 Speaker 1: a it's called Skytop Skytop Pavilion and it's a huge 1047 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:24,480 Speaker 1: apartment complex and some very nice apartments there. And there's 1048 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,399 Speaker 1: a place in there called Big Ash Brewing and that's 1049 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,319 Speaker 1: a local brewery. It's it's they've just teamed up with 1050 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:34,479 Speaker 1: the Roses, so it's going to be a loross. But yeah, 1051 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,319 Speaker 1: that that area has changed quite a bit over the 1052 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 1: last I would think so over the last forty five apartments, 1053 00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: the roses coming in. Uh so. Back to the Movers 1054 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: Study by United Van Lines Annual annual study, their forty 1055 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 1: ninth annual study, they say, you ask the reasons why 1056 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: dan So, New Jersey has been in the top ten 1057 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,000 Speaker 1: for fifteen straight years. I tax people moving in. People 1058 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 1: want to escape the high taxes. Now, New Jersey has 1059 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:09,320 Speaker 1: been number one place for moving out of eight straight years. 1060 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:16,719 Speaker 1: And the reason why, according to this survey, people uprooted 1061 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:20,160 Speaker 1: the most was their desire to move closer to family. 1062 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 1: It doesn't doesn't say where, and then followed by the 1063 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:30,399 Speaker 1: number two reason the job market, so jobs are tough 1064 00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:36,560 Speaker 1: to come by a New Jersey must be Interestingly, I 1065 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: thought you would, well, let's go over to the moving 1066 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 1: in Now, you know these are when I look at these, 1067 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:53,120 Speaker 1: you're like, somewhere somewhere along the line here politics and 1068 00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: policy is in the expenses and related to the amount 1069 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 1: that the cost of living related to some of those 1070 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 1: has to play into this. I would think, Now, I 1071 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 1: understand the job market probably factors into some politics and 1072 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 1: policy as well. But when I look at the moving 1073 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: in the number the top places that states that people 1074 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 1: are moving to how long is their list? They got 1075 00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: like a top ten, they got top ten. All right, 1076 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 1: let's see what it would be. So let's just go 1077 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 1: with the top three. Top three dan in these places 1078 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:30,800 Speaker 1: unlike New York and New Jersey all obviously California is 1079 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,919 Speaker 1: a long way. But all three of these states here 1080 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 1: aren't close to each other. I am going to say 1081 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 1: that I think the state I'm going to say right now, 1082 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 1: I think is on the top ten list. I don't 1083 00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 1: think it's number one, but it's going. And I'm going 1084 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: to say two states here because they're right next to 1085 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 1: each other, either Montana or Wyoming. Neither one. See, I 1086 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 1: thought there are a lot of people in moving because 1087 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 1: Yellowstone was such a big you know. I think there's 1088 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 1: a lot of Americans now that are longing for that, 1089 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 1: uh you know, be out there on the open plane 1090 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,680 Speaker 1: and be away and be from a lot of people 1091 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,240 Speaker 1: been in you know, Montana and Wyoming goes got all 1092 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: that wide open space and all that all that stuff, 1093 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 1: and so that that that is not on the top 1094 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: ten list. The closest to either of those two that 1095 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 1: would be related to some of the reasons you would 1096 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:27,240 Speaker 1: give was was Idaho at number one, two, three, four, five, six, 1097 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 1: At six, Idaho is number Boise. Boise is a big 1098 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 1: tech place. There's a lot of young, young tech tech 1099 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:38,160 Speaker 1: people that like to go there or move there. Okay, 1100 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,240 Speaker 1: then if top three, I'm gonna say, how about Florida 1101 00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:48,320 Speaker 1: not in the top ten? Texas not in the top ten? Arkansas? 1102 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 1: Arkansas is number eight, number eight. Okay, well, at least 1103 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 1: I got getting you got Tyson Foods. You got obviously 1104 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 1: got Walmart and all the vendors that related to Walmart. 1105 00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 1: I mean that north what is that north West Arkansas? 1106 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,720 Speaker 1: Is that where all the Walmart is? Bentonville? Is that that? 1107 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,000 Speaker 1: That's a booming area there. I knew someone from here 1108 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,439 Speaker 1: who moved down there for a job. I've only driven 1109 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,640 Speaker 1: through Arkansas a couple of times. I mean, it's it's 1110 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:13,400 Speaker 1: not much time there. 1111 00:59:13,480 --> 00:59:13,560 Speaker 2: Now. 1112 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,800 Speaker 1: Number three. To me, I'm like, yes, I get this. 1113 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 1: Moving into my and my my parents are Ohio on 1114 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 1: the list now? Uh so number now, I'll go, I'll go, 1115 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: I'll go the top three. I thought I was going 1116 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 1: to be better at this. You were not. I'm not 1117 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 1: very good at it. You were no, you were good 1118 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 1: at moving out? Well, the moving out, Yeah, but the 1119 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,120 Speaker 1: moving in, well, no I would. I wouldn't have gotten 1120 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 1: these either. Okay, I may have gotten South Carolina, which 1121 00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 1: is number three. I my parents, My parents moved down 1122 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,479 Speaker 1: and see that I could. There's a lot of people 1123 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 1: who like South Carolina has become Hey, you don't want 1124 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 1: to move to Florida, but you want to move to 1125 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:54,760 Speaker 1: warm weather lots alike in South Carolina. Yeah, very so. 1126 00:59:54,760 --> 01:00:00,240 Speaker 1: South Carolina is number three. All right. I got take 1127 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 1: a take a breather on this next one because I'm 1128 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,080 Speaker 1: just blown away by this one. Having grown up right 1129 01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 1: next door to this state, I would have never thought 1130 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,040 Speaker 1: this is the place people will be moving to West Virginia. 1131 01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 1: West Virginia. But but beautiful, God's beautiful place. If you've 1132 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:20,560 Speaker 1: ever gone up to the man of the Red River 1133 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 1: or not the Red River, the the New River Gorge 1134 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 1: up there and uh where the Gully River is, the 1135 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 1: big bridge like it is it is. I've always said this, 1136 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 1: We've gone up there a few times in Whitewater Raft 1137 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:35,439 Speaker 1: Beautiful it is. I'm like, when is when are people 1138 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 1: going to figure this out? Because it is a fun 1139 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: getaway weekend to get up there. Uh So, West Virginia 1140 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 1: cheap I mean, I can understand from the standpoint of hey, 1141 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: you know, cheap land, cheap houses, but not a lot 1142 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 1: of jobs. You know, Cole was the big industry, and 1143 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 1: that's that that industry is on its heels. Number one, 1144 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 1: Dan this, I would have never guessed this from Oregon. 1145 01:00:57,240 --> 01:01:01,040 Speaker 1: Number one is Oregon. Yeah, that's uh. Uh wouldn't the 1146 01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:04,240 Speaker 1: guest that I would. I would think that the notion 1147 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: of moving to Oregon is is a pretty big commitment 1148 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: because that's that's pretty far out there. You can't go 1149 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 1: much farther than Oregon, right right there on the west coast. Yeah, 1150 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean beautiful state. Though, well you can go to 1151 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 1: Hawaiian's stuff, well, you know, that's a whole different ball. Yeah, 1152 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 1: but Oregon, Yeah, I would.

Former former former 1199 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 1: Bengal former Bengal state things. Yes he's man.

And I thought to myself, Many, 1204 01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: That's that's a pretty big leap right there, I think 1205 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 1: to make a movie about a guy as charismatic as 1206 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:42,040 Speaker 1: John Madden. So I thought, well, let's get somebody on 1207 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:45,080 Speaker 1: who knows John Madden, and that would be our buddy, 1208 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 1: Merrill Hodge Man.

How's how's life in Fort Thomas. 1214 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 8: Well, it's about the same as it is in downtown Cincinnati. 1215 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,200 Speaker 1: How do you weather conditions are not ideal? Right now? 1216 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 1: You all know how long you eight year veteran in 1217 01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:20,479 Speaker 1: the NFL you played for the Steelers. We so many 1218 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 1: of us know you just as well from all your 1219 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:27,320 Speaker 1: your work on TV, and you played most of the year, 1220 01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: quite all, all but one year of your career with 1221 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:32,760 Speaker 1: the with the Steelers, and we remember that tough hard 1222 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 1: knows running back for the Steelers All Madden Team. How 1223 01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 1: did you end up? How'd you end up here? And 1224 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:40,800 Speaker 1: I know you've been asked as many times, how'd you 1225 01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 1: end up living in Fort Thomas? Well? 1226 01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 8: Actually, well, my wife at the time used to live 1227 01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 8: in Cincinnati, Okay, And when I went to Chicago, don't 1228 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:55,280 Speaker 8: make it really quick. We went to Chicago. Both of 1229 01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 8: us were from the West. 1230 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 1: I'm from from Utah. 1231 01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:02,600 Speaker 8: Were like, I don't I don't snow, and so we 1232 01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:04,640 Speaker 8: went to Arizona. So we built a home in Arizona. 1233 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:10,840 Speaker 8: And then instead of my career, my career got prematurely, 1234 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 8: I mean prematurely ended. I mean my care ended prematurely. 1235 01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 8: And at the time I didn't know what I was 1236 01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 8: going to do. But the Steelers offered me to be 1237 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,800 Speaker 8: in the broadcast booth and wanted a player in the booth. 1238 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,200 Speaker 1: Of Myron Cope, so I agreed to that. 1239 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 8: And then at the same time, ESPN was launching college 1240 01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 8: football and then they hired me to do that, and 1241 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:38,440 Speaker 8: the combination of just kept me back in the East 1242 01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 8: and so I lived. I lived in there as for 1243 01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 8: a couple of years. Then I was going to build 1244 01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,640 Speaker 8: a home in Pittsburgh, and she was like, I got 1245 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:47,680 Speaker 8: rid of live in Cincinnati. And I'm like, well, it 1246 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,960 Speaker 8: no't matter where I live, it really doesn't. Because so 1247 01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 8: we moved to Cincinnati because she used to live there 1248 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:55,520 Speaker 8: and she had friends there, and I was gone five 1249 01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:57,440 Speaker 8: days out of the week and a lot of time 1250 01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 8: during the football season anyway, And then I got there 1251 01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 8: and I'm a big boat hunter, so like I can 1252 01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:07,360 Speaker 8: hunt in Kentucky and Ohio. So it's like I don't 1253 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:15,439 Speaker 8: want to leave because I love both those states. Man, Yeah, 1254 01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:16,600 Speaker 8: I love both those states. 1255 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 1: So, uh, that's rough here, though, been a rough, been 1256 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:24,360 Speaker 1: a rough here. Well I'm sorry. I'm sorry to hear 1257 01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 1: it's been a rough here. Yeah, all right, but just 1258 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: for hunting, just for hunting. I rough year for hunting. 1259 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 1: Hopefully all right, We'll good. But you know when when 1260 01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:36,800 Speaker 1: I when when I remember when John Madden died. I 1261 01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,480 Speaker 1: think you were the first one I called. And uh 1262 01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:41,560 Speaker 1: and I said, I said, did you know John Madden? 1263 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 1: And you told me that you said, yeah, I was 1264 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,720 Speaker 1: on the All Madden Team and and you told me 1265 01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 1: the story about that. So when I saw that they 1266 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 1: were making a movie about the life of John Madden, 1267 01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,919 Speaker 1: I said, we got to get Meryl Hodge on and uh, 1268 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,880 Speaker 1: for those who may not have heard it, tell the 1269 01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,200 Speaker 1: story of how you made the All Madden Team. It's 1270 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:01,560 Speaker 1: it's one of my favorite stories. 1271 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 8: Well, you know, he first of the demographics of being 1272 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 8: on the All Madden Team were always a struggle if 1273 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:12,880 Speaker 8: you're in the a f C. Because he was predominantly 1274 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 8: in the NFC. And the only way you could ever 1275 01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:19,600 Speaker 8: make him make it on the All Madden Team is 1276 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 8: he had to do it. He had to watch you 1277 01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:23,680 Speaker 8: in person. You had to you had to do one 1278 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 8: of your games. So I eliminated a lot of players 1279 01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:27,959 Speaker 8: for a long time. 1280 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,719 Speaker 1: And especially from the a f C side. 1281 01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 8: And so Philly was coming to town and this one 1282 01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:37,320 Speaker 8: they have ready White, they had all those I mean, 1283 01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,160 Speaker 8: they had a great defense, They're a great team. They came, 1284 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:43,559 Speaker 8: they came to Pittsford and I was that was a 1285 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:48,759 Speaker 8: Madden game, and we had our product pre production meeting 1286 01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,080 Speaker 8: and stuff, and you know, John had I mean, I 1287 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 8: just I didn't say too much. Actually in the meeting 1288 01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,800 Speaker 8: because I was just enjoyed listening to him. He was 1289 01:08:57,840 --> 01:09:02,320 Speaker 8: just full of all kinds of wisdom and insight and 1290 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 8: anything he said about how I played the game, I 1291 01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:09,280 Speaker 8: just I truly appreciate it because at that time that 1292 01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:13,439 Speaker 8: was more important than the Pro Bowl. Probol was like 1293 01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,200 Speaker 8: irrelevant then. It was kind of irrelevant now, I mean, 1294 01:09:16,320 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 8: but it was that was if you made that, that 1295 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 8: beat that beat the Pro Bowl. So anyway, and I 1296 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:28,120 Speaker 8: wasn't thinking anything about making me all mad the team 1297 01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 8: from the game. We were just excited that, you know, 1298 01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:32,760 Speaker 8: he was doing our game. So we get in the 1299 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:37,519 Speaker 8: game and we had we had discussed this because Reggie 1300 01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:40,720 Speaker 8: White does it all the time. Is if Reggie White 1301 01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:43,680 Speaker 8: doesn't have a success, like in the third quarter or 1302 01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:46,680 Speaker 8: early fourth quarter, he'll start walking up and down the 1303 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:49,840 Speaker 8: offensive line and trying to pick all different types of 1304 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,519 Speaker 8: options until you get after the quarterback. If he's not 1305 01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 8: having success on the perimeter, which he was not. We 1306 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:57,160 Speaker 8: had a really good tackle Toun Hilton that handled him, 1307 01:09:57,280 --> 01:10:00,800 Speaker 8: could handle him. I left tackle John was doing the 1308 01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 8: same thing. So he walked up. He was walking across 1309 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,439 Speaker 8: the the off that you've line, and he lines up 1310 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:10,559 Speaker 8: over our right guard Brian blank and Ship. As soon 1311 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:13,320 Speaker 8: as he walks over Brian Blanket Ship, Brian Blanket Ship 1312 01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:17,880 Speaker 8: starts screaming for help. He's like, he screams, top you 1313 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:22,640 Speaker 8: w and they snapped the ball. Drege White slaps him 1314 01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 8: out of the way.

But it 1359 01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:29,599 Speaker 8: was one of my greatest accomplishments. You know, the trophy 1360 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:32,840 Speaker 8: he sends out is about the plaque actually, but it's 1361 01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:38,519 Speaker 8: about thirty five pounds. Thirty five pounds, and it's that typical. 1362 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,320 Speaker 8: It is exactly what Matt You can envision what would 1363 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 8: Madden have as a symbol. 1364 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:44,600 Speaker 1: Of the All Madden team. 1365 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:47,800 Speaker 8: You know that that football player in the trench coat 1366 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:51,120 Speaker 8: with a rainy, muddy day and he's standing there with 1367 01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:53,639 Speaker 8: the helmet and I step over the trench, got over. 1368 01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:58,400 Speaker 1: That's the that's the picture.

I don't think that the player, but 1370 01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:03,479 Speaker 8: that's that's how the player looks. You know. He was 1371 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:09,519 Speaker 8: just you know, tough, rugged, nasty. It's just it is 1372 01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:13,519 Speaker 8: still one of my it is the centerpiece of my career. 1373 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 1: I just I've always. 1374 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:19,280 Speaker 8: Really admired we all have admired him, and and to 1375 01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 8: be selected I still just well, we appreciated it, man 1376 01:13:23,400 --> 01:13:24,519 Speaker 8: and I'm grateful. 1377 01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 1: We think we lost maryl it's showing he's still on there.

And listen you hear what 1381 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:43,640 Speaker 1: he said about that it was better than being on 1382 01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:47,479 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl All Madden team. Yeah, and he talks 1383 01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:49,360 Speaker 1: about this plaque that he got. He sent me a 1384 01:13:49,360 --> 01:13:52,640 Speaker 1: photo of this, and this plaque looks like you know 1385 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:55,599 Speaker 1: those historical markers that you see when you go to 1386 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:59,000 Speaker 1: like an old covered bridge. Yes, a historical building. I 1387 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:02,080 Speaker 1: mean it's big like this. We said thirty pounds. Yeah, 1388 01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 1: this is what this is what this plaque looks. Well, 1389 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 1: give me my question is where did you have that 1390 01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:08,000 Speaker 1: displayed at his house or has he got in the 1391 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 1: man cave. I'm sure he's got it proudly displayed somewhere. Absolutely, 1392 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 1: but that I mean that that is an amazing piece 1393 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,719 Speaker 1: of hardware that he that he got from John Madden. 1394 01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:20,960 Speaker 1: And that's how seriously that that he took that. But 1395 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:22,800 Speaker 1: if we get him back, I'm going to ask him 1396 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:26,439 Speaker 1: about you know, about John the John Madden that he knew, 1397 01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 1: And I think when you know, when you when you 1398 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:30,680 Speaker 1: think about a guy there there's a whole generation of 1399 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:33,720 Speaker 1: people who at this point, yeah, don't know what John 1400 01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 1: Madden was like as a coach, don't know what he 1401 01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:38,800 Speaker 1: was like as a broadcaster. Remember the Miller Lite commercials 1402 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:41,840 Speaker 1: he used to do. Yes, I but I just and 1403 01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 1: the danger I think there is with a movie like 1404 01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:48,040 Speaker 1: this is that it's it's easy to cross that line. Okay, 1405 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:50,680 Speaker 1: so we have Meryl, Meryl, Meryl, but Merril. We are 1406 01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:52,840 Speaker 1: talking about the John Madden movie that was coming out, 1407 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 1: and I was talking about the kind of personality that 1408 01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:59,280 Speaker 1: John Madden was. And there's a whole generation that we 1409 01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 1: have right now, maybe more than one that's not familiar 1410 01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:06,000 Speaker 1: with John Madden as a coach, not familiar with him, 1411 01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 1: uh you know, and and how influential he was as 1412 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:12,640 Speaker 1: a broadcaster. Well, Ean, right, A lot of people now 1413 01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 1: even just say know. I'm like, oh, that's the video 1414 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 1: game Yeah, the video game guy is pretty much all. 1415 01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 1: And I'm just I'm just hoping that that that this 1416 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:23,559 Speaker 1: movie does not slip into a caricature of him, because 1417 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 1: I really think that would be a disservice to to 1418 01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:29,519 Speaker 1: John Madden and what he was and the and the 1419 01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:31,160 Speaker 1: legacy that he left behind. 1420 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's gonna be hard to Yeah, you know, 1421 01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 8: let's hope that you know it doesn't you know. I 1422 01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,200 Speaker 8: you know, that's another thing that you know, he rated 1423 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:43,080 Speaker 8: me one of the highest players. There was a couple 1424 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:45,720 Speaker 8: of years that I was I was just on a 1425 01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 8: boat Jackson for a couple of years. How he rated me, 1426 01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:52,600 Speaker 8: So I uh, you know that that is such a. 1427 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:54,840 Speaker 1: How to put it. 1428 01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:57,920 Speaker 8: I think maybe more people might play the game than 1429 01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:01,639 Speaker 8: have watched games he's on, you know, and that's why 1430 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 8: they probably know him more from from the game aspect 1431 01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:10,680 Speaker 8: than the actual football aspect and his contributions to the 1432 01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:15,640 Speaker 8: National Football League as a whole, and especially the Raiders specifically. 1433 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:21,240 Speaker 1: I was getting that's great, merrill. I was going to 1434 01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 1: ask you, where's your thirty five pound All Madden Plaque 1435 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 1: trophy behemoth awesome, awesome artifact award.

I don't know who's making it. 1478 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 8: But you know, I remember when they did the movie Concussion, 1479 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:58,439 Speaker 8: there was like only one thing they they documented that 1480 01:18:58,600 --> 01:19:03,120 Speaker 8: was actually correct, and it was it was too Vinyl. Uh, 1481 01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:09,120 Speaker 8: it was to be little and doctor Joe Maroon in 1482 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,759 Speaker 8: it as a villain, you know, because of what he said, 1483 01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 8: which was the only part of it that actually had 1484 01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:21,120 Speaker 8: integrity when he mentioned, you know, Mike Wesher. You know, 1485 01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:23,880 Speaker 8: there's no evidence that that Mike Webster died or ct 1486 01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:25,040 Speaker 8: because nobody ever died. 1487 01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:25,200 Speaker 2: Of that. 1488 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:29,639 Speaker 8: You can't take one person and scrapty like this. There's 1489 01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:35,000 Speaker 8: a disease, that's that's that's just abusing science, medicine in 1490 01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:37,920 Speaker 8: every form you could possibly imagine. So that's the only 1491 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:42,040 Speaker 8: thing they documented correctly in the movies. Roughly ten fifteen 1492 01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 8: years later, it's still the only thing that's true. They 1493 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 8: tried to make him a villain, and it's the only 1494 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:53,680 Speaker 8: thing that is true. You know, integrity withstands everything. But 1495 01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 8: my point in sharing that is I knew the people 1496 01:19:56,880 --> 01:20:00,519 Speaker 8: who I knew, uh some people I knew some of 1497 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 8: the people who were in the production aspect of that, 1498 01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 8: and so I just I was curious. It's like, I 1499 01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:07,880 Speaker 8: can't call this a real like a based on a 1500 01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:11,240 Speaker 8: true story, and there was nothing true true about it 1501 01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:14,160 Speaker 8: other than one little which you tried to just make 1502 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 8: the guy look bad, and it's something you told that 1503 01:20:16,320 --> 01:20:18,639 Speaker 8: was true. I don't I'll never forget what he said. 1504 01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:21,240 Speaker 8: He said, we got to get a few names, right, 1505 01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 8: A few places right, and then the rest of them 1506 01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:28,360 Speaker 8: is artistic choice, and I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm disgusting, man. 1507 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:31,519 Speaker 8: So now I only say that. Listen. I'm sure there's 1508 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 8: been others, but they have tried to be as close 1509 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:36,439 Speaker 8: as possible. So I'm not saying this is the other one. 1510 01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 8: But it does give you a lot of liberty, you know, 1511 01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:41,519 Speaker 8: when you when you know when they say based on 1512 01:20:41,600 --> 01:20:43,920 Speaker 8: a true story and they don't be don't be so sure. 1513 01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 8: All of that took place always in the back of 1514 01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:47,680 Speaker 8: the mind, and I'm lack of might have to say 1515 01:20:47,680 --> 01:20:49,000 Speaker 8: true story and I watched it and I'm like, Okay, 1516 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:51,920 Speaker 8: that really happened. Or is that artistic choice? Is that 1517 01:20:52,080 --> 01:20:53,960 Speaker 8: somebody who's deciding, like, you know what, I'm going to 1518 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,640 Speaker 8: add this because I didn't like what they did, so 1519 01:20:56,760 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 8: let's make it a little more drama, or let's add 1520 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:02,960 Speaker 8: to this. Doesn't matter if it's right or wrong. We 1521 01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:04,920 Speaker 8: got a couple of things that are right, so we 1522 01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 8: can live like that.

You mentioned l Rancho ranking el Rancho ranking 1592 01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 1: a little bit ago, and it got me to thinking, 1593 01:24:55,160 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 1: got me to thinking, man, thinking, that's dangerous when you 1594 01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:02,960 Speaker 1: when you do. Please, I gotta be careful now. I 1595 01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,679 Speaker 1: say this because I don't want anyone calling in saying 1596 01:25:05,720 --> 01:25:08,960 Speaker 1: they missed the l Rancho ranking. But maybe maybe well 1597 01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 1: maybe they do, maybe they do maybe a good time, 1598 01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:14,519 Speaker 1: maybe maybe there was good times there back in the day. Yes, 1599 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:20,000 Speaker 1: But it made me think places around the region that 1600 01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:23,080 Speaker 1: aren't here anymore that you miss Is there you have 1601 01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 1: a good story about, isn't What did it mean to you? 1602 01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:27,320 Speaker 1: But we had a caller earlier on the line. I 1603 01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:29,600 Speaker 1: didn't I wasn't able to get to him, but he 1604 01:25:29,720 --> 01:25:31,880 Speaker 1: had a story about the l Rancho ranking. So if 1605 01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:35,679 Speaker 1: he could call back, that'd be great. But eight places 1606 01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 1: that you miss or or that or that you have 1607 01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,640 Speaker 1: a good story about that's no longer here. A restaurant, 1608 01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:45,680 Speaker 1: a hotel, a store, sporting good store. I don't know 1609 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: any store that you'd you'd love to go to five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, 1610 01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:53,240 Speaker 1: eight hundred, the big one. One of those places for 1611 01:25:53,360 --> 01:25:55,479 Speaker 1: me is I came in. I was doing the Sloan 1612 01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:58,160 Speaker 1: Show one day and I was on my way in 1613 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 1: and I really didn't know what what the top of 1614 01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:04,200 Speaker 1: my show was going to be that day. And I 1615 01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:07,679 Speaker 1: heard Brian Combs on the news and he was talking 1616 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:10,280 Speaker 1: about and the word had just come out that the 1617 01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:13,800 Speaker 1: old Cincinnati Gardens was going to be torn down. And 1618 01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:16,360 Speaker 1: I thought about that, and and I started talking about that, 1619 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:17,680 Speaker 1: and I said, you know what, I just heard that 1620 01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:20,719 Speaker 1: on the news. And I had so many great memories 1621 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:24,679 Speaker 1: of the Cincinnati Gardens, going there to see the sea 1622 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:26,559 Speaker 1: hockey games. You know, my dad took me there when 1623 01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:28,600 Speaker 1: I was a little kid. We we'd go there. We 1624 01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:31,120 Speaker 1: saw I mean, we saw the circus there. I saw 1625 01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:35,840 Speaker 1: some great country acts there. I used to watch the 1626 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:39,280 Speaker 1: old Cincinnati Slammers would play basketball there, went to a 1627 01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:42,880 Speaker 1: bunch of Xavier games when Xavier called the Cincinnati Gardens home. 1628 01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:45,760 Speaker 1: And so, I mean, you talk about that that kind 1629 01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:47,880 Speaker 1: of place. It to my way of thinking, it's it's 1630 01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:50,000 Speaker 1: kind of a shame that they that they tore it down. 1631 01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:51,479 Speaker 1: I don't know, what. I don't know why I'd have 1632 01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 1: to drive by there right now to see what's on 1633 01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:55,479 Speaker 1: that piece of property.
