WEBVTT - 11-14-25 Scott Sloan Show 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:01.920 Don't want to be an American. 0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:05.800 Friday, Martin was slowly here seven hundred w all other 0:00:05.800 --> 0:00:07.640 than a lot of the usual suspects, and no one 0:00:07.680 --> 0:00:09.879 more suspect than my next guest here with the Bengals 0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:12.639 off in the bye ready for Pittsburgh Sunday, and you 0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:15.280 see at home tomorrow, we got lots going on. 0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:18.400 That would be my guy, Dan Horde, a voice of 0:00:18.520 --> 0:00:19.360 said teams. 0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:22.599 Daniel, Hi, slowany good to hear your voice. 0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:25.000 How are you as well? Hopefully had an okay, biolthough 0:00:25.040 --> 0:00:27.720 you worked a little bit. Calling U see's big bragging 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:30.480 rights win over Dayton. I don't think I can recall 0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:33.320 a time, and I'm not the biggest college basketball guy, 0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:36.200 but a team going two for twenty six from three 0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:38.840 point land that is, that's like King's Island bed. 0:00:39.880 --> 0:00:45.040 And thankfully that team was Dayton, not you see, I said, Daniel, Yeah, 0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:49.400 that helped you see overcome committing twenty four turnovers and 0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:52.880 winning by twelve points. I've never seen that one before. Yeah, 0:00:53.040 --> 0:00:55.560 but that grizzly three point shooting helped. 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:58.040 As the Lutians are losing any of that off and 0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:01.520 you know it's early, it's still early. We're still trying 0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:05.200 to figure things. The other Bearcats to keep in mind 0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:07.479 would be the football team. You know youyeh the second 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:10.360 bye week and AP coaches Paul hung in at twenty second. 0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:13.880 The hope is you win and win out for that matter, 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:15.920 the remaining three and two of those are at home, 0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:17.920 and you can get to the Big twelve championship, So 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:20.920 there's a path there BYU is looming. That game's already 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:22.840 sold out at Nippord. But first you have to get 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:26.880 past the Wildcats, and they're six and three. They gave 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.360 Brigham Young all they can handle, a team that the Bearcats, 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:32.520 I believe have never played. How does that all factor? 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:36.280 You're right about all of those, noug it's good research 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:41.040 Flany big game Arizona is good. Cincinnati is one game ahead, 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.560 and the standings the Bearcats are seven and two, the 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:46.479 Wildcats are six and three. They've got an excellent third 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:49.800 year starting quarterback and Noah Fafida, who's tied the school 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:52.920 record for touchdown passes. The defense is one of the 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.480 best in the conference, third and points allowed, fourth and 0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:59.080 yards allowed. So it's a tough cast for Cincinnati. But 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:02.120 the Bearcats are knippert They haven't lost at home this year. 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.760 They're favored by about six points I think tomorrow, So 0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:08.240 I think if the Bearcats don't turn it over and 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:11.800 play solidly, I think they'll win. We'll see, But if 0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:14.280 they do, it really sets up a huge game against 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:16.519 YU next Saturday at Nippert. 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:18.639 Yeah, that's been a big one, and I don't think 0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:20.600 anyone's looking past that. But you know, you have the 0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.920 sense that, hey, it's they're six and three. You can't 0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.279 give up. What's the status. By the way of Evan Pryor. 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:31.679 I don't think he's going to play. That could be 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:34.120 a game time decision. You know. Sometimes they watch how 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.640 guys do in the warm ups and then decide. If 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:38.960 I had to guess, I don't think he'll play. But 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.840 they're pretty deep at the running back position. If you 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:45.720 had to pick a position on the team where you 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:48.560 lost one of your better guys, that might be the 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:49.920 one where you feel most comfortable. 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:51.320 Yeah, it seems like it's on the D two is 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:53.519 you've got to contain a quarterback because he's pretty mobile. 0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:59.480 Well, he's he's an interesting guy because he's kind of fluty, 0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:03.440 like small. He's five to ten, but he's shifty and 0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:05.560 he's got a great arm, and he's an accurate thrower, 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:08.760 and he's he's got a proven track record. He started 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.799 more than thirty games. So yes, Noah, Fafet is really good. 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:12.440 We'll be a test. 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:16.040 Okay, let's segue to the Bengals here, resting up, had 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.440 the bye week, they go to Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh on their heels, 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:20.960 which I mean, this is just it's such a weird 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.760 year in the AFC North for sure, beat the Steelers 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:26.119 on Thursday Night Football. Four weeks ago, They're at Pittsburgh. 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.880 Steelers have dropped three of the last four and now 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:31.519 a one game lead of the Ravens for the AFC 0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:34.760 North Crown. I heard tea and players say this, and 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.120 I always love asking you this, Dand because I always 0:03:37.160 --> 0:03:39.000 know you, it makes the hair in the back your 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:41.480 next stand up. But they're saying it's a must win, 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.240 and I think about it, if you do your game out, 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.440 if you lose your fall three back, it feels it 0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:48.600 certainly feels that way. Yeah. 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:51.320 I usually don't use those words, but in terms of 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.840 winning the AFC North, I think you can use them 0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:56.160 this week. That's the path to the playoffs. They're not 0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.080 going to win the wild card this year with a 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:00.960 three and six record, but the key in the AFC 0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:05.560 North have floundered to such a degree that, yes, if 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:09.800 the Bengals win on Sunday, they're still alive. Nobody would 0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:13.080 be above five hundred in the division if Cincinnati wins. 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:16.360 So yeah, in terms of winning the AFC North, I 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:18.800 think this week you could use the expression must win. 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:19.280 All right. 0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:21.680 So back in late October, they beat the Steelers. That 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:25.000 was a great game. Didn't sack Rogers that night, and 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:26.760 I think there are just two hits on the quarterback, 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:29.760 and neither of them was by our defensive ends. But 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:33.120 Trey Hendrickson and Jamar Stewart look like they're both out 0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:33.640 this week. 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:38.360 Yes, I don't think either we'll play. They didn't sack 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:41.600 Rogers in that game, but they did intercept him twice, 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:43.720 and that was one of the biggest reasons why the 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.680 Bengals won. They had interceptions on back to back possessions 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:49.159 in the second quarter, allowing them to come from behind 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.479 and win that game. So I don't know if they're 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.680 going to sack or hit Rogers, but it would certainly 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.520 help to have an interception or two. 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:57.880 Again. Yeah, No, question, Dan Horde, voice of the Bearcats, 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:01.040 woics of the Bengals Sunday at one here on seven 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.400 hundred WW home and the best Bengals coverage. So the 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.480 injury thing, I'll Slacko's shoulder. That extra week certainly had 0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:06.800 to help. 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:10.719 He threw it practice yesterday. I don't know if he'll 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:14.080 do it again today. In that Chicago game two weeks ago, 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.799 and he threw for four hundred and seventy yards. Thursday 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:19.920 was the only day they had him throw because he's 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:22.760 got that sprain a seed joint. So I wouldn't be 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:26.200 surprised if it's the same scenario this week. Didn't throw Wednesday, 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:29.840 did throw Thursday, might not throw today. Certainly didn't hurt 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.600 him last time, throwing for four to seventy, a career 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:36.800 high and roughly one hundred yards more than he had 0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:38.840 ever thrown in a previous NFL game. 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:42.000 Dan, let's add your speculation to the mix here about 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.800 Burrow watch twenty twenty five here and what has to 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:47.880 happen for him to return or let's just say they 0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:50.000 lose that till he returns, so they do you start 0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:52.240 Joe Burr At this point me, I think it's like, 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.559 let's just see how this game against the Steerers goes first, 0:05:55.600 --> 0:06:00.159 and then make a decision when he feels up to it. 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.599 It's going to be interesting to see what happens, because 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.720 Joe wants to play, regardless of their record. If they 0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:08.400 lose three more in a row in this twenty one 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:11.880 day window before he can be well, they have twenty 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:14.040 one days to determine whether to activate him or shut 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:15.920 him down for the rest of the year. Even if 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:18.000 they were to lose all of the games they played 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:19.960 during that window. He wants to come back and play 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.520 this year. This is what he does. He loves to play, 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:25.640 he wants to continue to improve. He thinks he can 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:27.680 get better even playing a few games at the end 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:29.719 of this year at this stage of his career. So 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.760 I know it's been portrayed in some places as it's 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:35.919 going to be a power struggle between you know, the 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:38.600 front office deciding whether he should play if they're out 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:41.039 of it, or whether he wants to play and should 0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:44.560 be allowed to play. This is what he does. I 0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:48.760 think that if medically everything is fine, he feels good 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:50.920 and he looks good, I think he's going to play 0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:52.120 at some point before this year. 0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:55.200 Is over. Yeah, and you know, we'll see when we'll 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:56.960 cross efforguent we come to it. I guess it's kind 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.120 of silly to talk about what might happen. And again, 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:01.200 you've got the Steelers week. You got to focus on that. 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.840 If you can win, it makes sense. But at some point, 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:06.280 if they don't and the trend continues, and it's just 0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:08.440 completely soid I don't get the advantage of bringing him back, 0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.160 and if he wants to, somebody's got to tell him no, 0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:12.280 because I mean, look at Washington. Do you want to 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:15.880 set him Something could happen and unfortunately the luck we've had, 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.840 bad things do happen. Let's talk about this game coming 0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:22.280 up Sunday, Dan Sister Steelers. Rogers does not look good. 0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:25.040 He looks like every part of the forty one year 0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:28.360 old he is. The offensive line is breaking. But is 0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:30.120 that all on him and the age thing. We made 0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:31.960 a big deal out declining numbers, But is that the 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:34.960 offensive line breaking down as receiver's not getting separation. There's 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:35.960 something else going on here. 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.240 Oh, I think there's a little bit of all of 0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.920 that involved in Rogers will be forty two in about 0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:44.400 two weeks, so he's coming up on mad Birthday as well. 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.960 I think the Steelers offensive line has been pretty bad 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.600 in recent years, but he is getting better. They were 0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.880 missing one of their starters last Sunday night in their loss. 0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:56.680 He'll be back this week, so that helps them. They 0:07:56.760 --> 0:08:00.200 really only have one good wide receiver in DK Metcalf. 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.480 The other guys are just dudes. Jalen Warren is a 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:06.480 good running back. He had a great first game against Cincinnati, 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:07.960 so that's going to be a key to the game. 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:09.880 But if you watch the Steelers this year, what they're 0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:12.720 doing as much as any team in the NFL is 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:17.760 bringing in a six offensive lineman Spencer Anderson, multiple tight ends, 0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:21.520 including one that's three hundred pounds Darnell Washington, and they're 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.680 just going bullyball. That's what they've kind of evolved into 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:27.440 this year. They don't necessarily get a ton of yards 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.600 doing it, but they try to impose their will and 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:31.920 take some time off the clock. 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:32.640 If they can. 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:35.400 I work pretty well against the Bengals in Game one, 0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:36.800 They're going to have to be ready to stop it 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:37.559 in Game two. 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:37.920 Yeah. 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:40.000 They're averaging less of what two hundred and eighty yards 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.120 I think per game, which is pretty damn low by 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.000 their standards in two hundred and forty seven of the 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:46.880 three games against Cincinnati and going back to Week seven 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.320 where the Bengals beat him thirty three to ten on 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:52.040 Thursday Night Football. Are they going to come out with 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.840 the same plan. I mean, Steelers going to adjust, Bengals adjust, 0:08:54.920 --> 0:08:57.720 but and of other teams replicated with the Bengals have 0:08:57.800 --> 0:08:59.240 done since that went on Thursday Night. 0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:02.960 I think they're going to come out with the same plan. 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:07.120 But in that first meeting against the Bengals, Aaron Rodgers 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:10.480 threw four touchdown passes. So they're also going to try 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:13.600 to take advantage of the Bengals weaknesses. And as we 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.560 all know, the defense right now has a bunch of weaknesses. 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.680 They've scored eighty points in their last two games and 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:23.640 haven't won either game. So I'm sure the Steelers are 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.160 thinking this is a get right type game for their 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:27.719 offense and the Bengals are going to have to try 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:28.320 to prove them wrong. 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:29.960 So is the Jalen Warren had like over one hundred 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.439 yards rushing against the Bengals in that game, but since 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:34.640 I mean, he hasn't done really anything. I only had 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:37.160 one game with more than seventy yards in the last 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:38.040 three weeks. 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.600 But in that Bengals game, he not only ran for 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:43.960 one hundred and twenty seven, he had thirty one receiving, 0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:46.560 so one hundred and fifty eight total yards for him 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:49.800 in that game, plus four touchdown passes for Rogers. So 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:53.040 both of those guys, I'm sure are anticipating. All right, 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.199 this is a team that we didn't have a lot 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:58.200 of trouble against defensively in Game one, and a chance 0:09:58.200 --> 0:09:59.880 to put up some numbers again in game two. 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:04.560 Danny, you mentioned d dk Metcalf started hot this year 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:07.760 and just just kind of faded. Now different, you know what, 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.960 three catches I think fifty yards against DJ Turner shut 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:14.800 him down. But and Turner had a hell of a game, 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:16.720 and you love, you know, as much as we've knocked 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.040 the defense, he has been a stud all season long. 0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:22.720 How do you translate to what happened four weeks ago 0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:23.800 to Sunday. 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:28.840 I think Turner is going to follow dk Metcalf like 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:30.720 he did in that game, So it won't be a 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:33.680 situation where you have one cornerback on one side and the 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.680 other on the other. It's going to be Okay, Turner 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:40.520 followed DK Metcalf wherever he goes, and as you mentioned, 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:44.480 Turner's played great so far this year. That's the biggest positive. 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:47.600 On defense. He leaves the NFL and passes defense. He's 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.040 got a couple of interceptions. One came when he ripped 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.440 the ball away from DK Metcalf in that first Pittsburgh game. 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:58.440 So DJ Turner covers DK Metcalf, and you look at 0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:03.480 the rest of those receivers, Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin, Ben Scronic. 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:06.440 It's not exactly a who's who. It's very different from 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:10.320 the Bengals situation, where if a team manages to limit 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:13.640 Jamar Chase to you know, reasonable numbers instead of his 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:17.000 usual great numbers, You've got t you've got Josie Bosch, 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:17.480 et cetera. 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:19.360 Well, I don't know. You can't put up better numbers. 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:22.560 What's one hundred and sixty one and sixteen catches? 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:24.040 You know? 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:26.800 I think he comes again the better certainly the better receiver. 0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:28.400 But with that chip on his shoulder, I think he's 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:29.640 just going to roll again on Sunday. 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:33.800 I don't think they'll throw it to him twenty three times. 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:35.079 Probably not in the first game. 0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:35.560 Probably not. 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:40.960 But yes, nobody shuts down Jamar Chase. Some teams do 0:11:41.080 --> 0:11:44.319 better than others, but Pittsburgh historically has not done very well. 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:49.559 Jamar is threatening to set the NFL record for catches 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:51.600 in a single season. He's on a pace for one 0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:55.240 forty three. I think the record is one forty nine 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.719 by Michael Thomas. He used to play for the Saints, 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:00.600 so you know he had the triple crown last year 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:02.600 and maybe this year he sets the record for most 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:03.360 catches in any year. 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:07.320 Yeah. I look at that turnover differential, Dan Pittsburgh has 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:10.240 jumped out at the pregame notes here. Pittsburgh's plus six 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:12.920 on the season, but just had one in the last 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:15.839 month and no turnovers forced and three of the last four, 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:19.800 including against the Bengals. Is that better ball protection? Is 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:23.120 Pittsburgh doing something less aggressive in that area? 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.440 No, I do think they faced better competition. That's one 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.120 of the reasons why they've lost three out of their 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.560 last four. But if you look at the Steelers defense, 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:35.480 it's kind of a boom or bust proposition. So they're 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.520 second in the league in sacks, they're up there in takeaways. 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:41.520 That's the good news. The bad news is they're giving 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:44.160 up a ton of passing yards. They're dead last in 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:46.680 the NFL at defending the pass, at least in terms 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:49.600 of yards allowed per game. They give up the most 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:53.600 yards to opposing wide receivers of any team in the NFL. 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.000 It's almost two hundred yards the game to the other 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:59.760 team's wide receivers. So I'm subtracting running backs and tight ends. 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:03.040 So their passing defense has been bad. If they don't 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:06.040 get to the quarterback, if they don't get a takeaway, 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.160 they're not getting stops. So that's the key to the game. 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:12.679 Can you give Joe Flaco time? Can you prevent him 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:16.360 from getting sacked? Can you prevent strip sacks from people 0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:20.280 like with TJ. Watton, Alex high Smith. If you can 0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:22.800 do that, you can move the ball, particularly through the 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:24.400 air against this Pittsburgh defense. 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:26.640 You know what's striking about that? That is definitely not 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.720 and it doesn't fit the reputation of a Mike Tomlin defense, 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:30.000 does it. 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:34.440 What happened? Their secondary is bad. You know they tried 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.040 to boost it this year by signing Darius Tolay and 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.240 trading for Jalen Ramsey slays out he's going to miss 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:42.920 the game of the concussion Ramsey's been moved to safety. 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.040 Joey Porter is a good player, but he's as penalty 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.880 prone as any cornerback in the league. Had six penalties 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:52.360 in one game against the Bengals last year, which was incredible. 0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:55.840 So that's the problem. They're still great upfront, they're not 0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:59.040 great in the secondary. If you can protect your quarterback, 0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:00.280 guys are going to be open. 0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:03.160 Hate the Steelers, but respect to Hallada Tomlin and the 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:05.120 fact that he's had a run of what eighteen seasons 0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:07.640 without a losing record, it's certainly in jeopardy the way 0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:08.480 they're trending. 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:12.520 To five and four after a four and one start, 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:16.320 So yes, it is in jeopardy. He has had three 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:20.120 five hundred seasons back when there was a sixteen game schedule. 0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:22.280 There were three times that the Steelers went eight and 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.920 eight during his tenure. So I'm just waiting for the 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:26.840 year now that there are seventeen games. 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:28.520 Did he goes eight eight. 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:32.320 And one, So maybe that'll happen this year to continuous 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:36.080 streak of no losing seasons. But throw another five hundred 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:38.480 in there this year with an eight eight and one, 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:41.480 maybe this will be the tie on Sunday. Yeah, if 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.600 it happens. It would be the greatest prediction of all time. 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:46.840 To show you just how the worm turns so quickly 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.680 in the NFL with a parody. And they're more parody 0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:52.320 in the NFL than I think any other sports league 0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:55.040 in the world. The NFL is just so tight. This 0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:57.280 wasn't that long ago. We're talking about how AFC is 0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:58.960 one of the AFC North, one of the toughest divisions 0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:00.640 in football, and now it's like, no, no one wants. 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:05.400 Someone wants to take the division. Crown Steelers, Baltimore Bengals. Well, 0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:07.640 and of course you know Cleveland's out of it, but uh, 0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:09.920 it's just like it's up for Grizella for grabs. 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:13.880 Yeah, And that's what Joe Burrow said in his news 0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:16.920 conference on Monday after his first practice. He's like, you know, 0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:20.320 normally we wouldn't be in this position, we'd be dead, 0:15:20.560 --> 0:15:22.960 but because of the division this year, we're not. And 0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:27.040 he's right. Pittsburgh five and four, Baltimore's four and five. 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:29.000 Now the Ravens are coming on. They won three in 0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.720 a row, arsa Chlthy, so you expect them to be 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.280 good the rest of the way. But who knows. Stuff 0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:36.280 can happen. I mean he missed a few games of 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.680 the hamstring injury. He could tweak it again and they 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:41.440 could go right back down the tube. So it's a 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.680 very unusual year in the AFC North, where all of 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:47.760 us expected going into the year that Baltimore is going 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:49.800 to be great, Cincinnati was going to be really good, 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.720 Pittsburgh is probably going to be good. In Cleveland would 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.880 be bad. Well, the last part's true, but the other 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.640 stuff isn't. And as a result, the Bengals still have 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.080 a pulse despite the three and six records. 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:03.280 Well, we'll be listening for sure, Dan and Lamp with 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:06.080 the call on Sunday one o'clock in Pittsburgh. Of course 0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:12.960 tomorrow Bearcats at home. I believe that's a noon start against. 0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:14.800 Ten o'clock on the Arizona body clock. So hopefully that 0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:15.760 helps Cincinnati. 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.560 Yeah, this West Coast stuff here, and you tell you're back. 0:16:18.840 --> 0:16:20.960 I feel you, Danny, all the best, buddy, have a 0:16:20.960 --> 0:16:23.640 great game and we'll chat next Friday morning. Be well, 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.960 sounds good? Thanks, take care of my man. With that. 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.080 A news update in just seconds here on seven hundred 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:34.240 WLW Winn return Will Dance is in if maybe sports 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:37.600 ain't your thing or there's time between.

William, good morning, 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:17.280 Good morning. You have had when's the last time someone 0:17:17.320 --> 0:17:17.959 to call you William? 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:22.359 Probably fifth grade when I was in trouble for I 0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:24.680 don't know, eating too many cookies out of the cookie jar. 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:28.080 It's a very parental thing. Okay, it can be a 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:30.360 little bit of PTSD to hear William, go. 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:32.960 And go with dad mode here, will all right, So 0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:36.080 we'll pick up or Kyrie left off. I know that 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:39.440 Frankenstein is out on Netflix. Why would they wait till 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:42.320 after thanks after thanks you? Why were they Thanksgiving? And 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:43.639 after Halloween to do that. 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:47.000 You know, it was in theaters for a little bit, 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:49.960 so I don't know if maybe they thought that Halloween 0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:52.920 would have people sort of heading to theaters to see 0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:55.720 some spookier, moodier type of films and so they were 0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:59.200 hoping to make as much money with that model before 0:17:59.200 --> 0:18:02.520 they put it on. But yeah, that's where we're at. 0:18:02.640 --> 0:18:07.960 So it just arrives to Netflix this week, and after 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.000 being in theaters for a couple of weeks. 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:13.719 Prior, how does it stand up to I guess all 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.399 the other ten twenty thousand Frankensteins have been done before, 0:18:17.520 --> 0:18:18.920 so this is you. 0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:21.080 Know, Giermo del Toro is the director here, and he 0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:24.280 has said for decades that telling the story, that making 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:27.520 his version of Frankenstein would be his dream project. And 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:30.119 you can definitely feel that as you're watching it. I 0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:33.240 mean sort of like Frankenstein's Monster itself, Like the film 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.240 does lumber in some places. It's a little slow moving 0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:38.280 in some places, but that said. 0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:40.600 It is like visually epic. 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:42.199 It is. 0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:45.080 You know, there are some really cool nods to the 0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:49.119 nineteen thirties original Frankenstein movies. You know, it is absolutely 0:18:49.240 --> 0:18:51.680 rooted in Mary Shelley's novel, and then Giermo del Toro 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:54.760 does sort of add a couple of twists and. 0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.760 Plot changes of his own. Jacob E. 0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:03.639 Lordi plays the monster of Isaac plays the scientist, and it's, 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:05.760 you know, it's really well acted. I think for people 0:19:05.760 --> 0:19:09.000 who like the story, it's definitely worth watching. It does 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:12.679 have a two hour twenty something minute run time, so 0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:16.159 it's long. But if you're, you know, looking for something 0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:19.720 you know to watch this weekend, it's it's certainly worth 0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:22.840 to watch. It's it's a great, great telling of the story. 0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:25.680 All right. Frankenstein ed is on on Netflix. On Netflix, 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:28.240 it keeps raising their rates for some reason. It's giving 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:30.280 you the notices about the rates going up again. I 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:32.680 gotta I gotta do a deep dive where the holidays 0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:34.159 will figure out what the hell I'm spend all my 0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:38.000 money on too many services? It's too much. 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:40.760 Yeah, No, that's a good that's a good sort of 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:43.920 refresh for the new year. Yeah, remind yourself, Yeah where 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:44.400 all this money? 0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:46.880 Year's resolution is figure out why am I paying more? 0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:48.639 And still have a lie? Just I don't understand. Then, 0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:51.040 still flip around from platform to platform. There's nothing on 0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:53.840 there's nothing. There's nothing here. There's nothing here. I know, 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.520 if you're into this, Jonas Brothers have a new holiday 0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:57.080 movie out. 0:19:57.000 --> 0:19:59.360 Right, that's exactly right. 0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:03.440 So somehow this year America is celebrating twenty years of 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:05.720 the Jonas Brothers, which is crazy because I feel like 0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:09.639 that's impossible time wise, but here we are. The guys 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.240 are on tour this year, and they've also somehow figured 0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:13.359 out time. 0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:14.880 To shoot this movie. 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:17.320 That hit Disney Plus today. It's called a Very Jonas 0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:21.639 Christmas Movie. And I went in with the lowest of 0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:27.480 expectations and was very, very pleasantly surprised. It starts off 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:30.359 a Will Ferrell is playing this like Jonas Brothers super 0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:33.919 fan who is hyped to see them in concert. And 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:35.920 then from there, you know they are on tour in 0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:38.080 Europe and there's a big storm and they need to 0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:39.200 make it home for the holidays. 0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:39.960 So it's very. 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:42.879 Familiar plot wise in that way. But I thought the 0:20:42.880 --> 0:20:45.480 movie was very fun, and my favorite thing about it 0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:47.480 was there's a lot of new music in it, and 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:49.879 I thought the music was great. Kenny g shows up 0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:54.080 playing the saxophone, so yeah, yeah, it has all the 0:20:54.200 --> 0:20:57.639 familiar makings of a Christmas movie, But I thought it 0:20:57.680 --> 0:21:00.159 was a lot of fun to watch, and it that 0:21:00.400 --> 0:21:03.560 hits Disney Plus today for anyone looking to maybe jump 0:21:03.640 --> 0:21:06.080 start the holiday season with the Joe brose. 0:21:06.119 --> 0:21:07.560 They've been around what twenty years? 0:21:07.560 --> 0:21:11.880 I think, yes exactly, which I think I know, which 0:21:11.920 --> 0:21:12.600 I'm like, how is. 0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:15.000 This even possible? Because aren't they. 0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:17.719 Twenty two years old? But I guess they're not here? 0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:18.159 Who is it? 0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:18.880 Now? 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:22.880 Who is your core Jonahs brother fan? You know, that's 0:21:22.920 --> 0:21:23.520 a great question. 0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:25.440 It's got to be the millennials that grew up with them, 0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:28.280 so I would see that it's probably thirty year old women. 0:21:28.480 --> 0:21:33.040 Yeah, yeah, yeah, mom band, Okay, so Jonah. The thing 0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:34.919 is like, oh yeah Jonahs brother. Well, yeah, they've been 0:21:34.920 --> 0:21:36.879 around for a couple of decades for sure. So a 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:38.320 very Jonah Christmas. 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:40.919 I'm not sure. I'm kind of divided right now. Is 0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:42.480 it the very Jonah Christmas? 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:42.600 Now? 0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:46.520 This is me by the way, talking here William? 0:21:47.000 --> 0:21:47.520 Is it? 0:21:47.920 --> 0:21:51.000 Or do I go with the A Bill's Love Story 0:21:51.040 --> 0:21:53.840 on Hallmark? Because there's a Bills fan and grow up. 0:21:53.840 --> 0:21:56.719 There's a Hallmark movie on apparently called A Bill's Love Story, 0:21:57.119 --> 0:22:00.520 which is becoming meme of an of itself. I don't 0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:02.760 think I can remember the last time I watch anything 0:22:02.760 --> 0:22:04.439 on Hallmark, and I'm not sure I'm gonna watch this. 0:22:05.880 --> 0:22:08.479 Well, listen, you know there are when it comes to 0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:12.280 holiday movies, and in particular Hallmark Holiday movies, there are 0:22:12.359 --> 0:22:15.520 absolutely no rules. So sometimes I think that they just 0:22:15.840 --> 0:22:18.199 ask a second grade class to write the script for 0:22:18.280 --> 0:22:19.320 these things, and. 0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:20.800 Somehow they get made. 0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:24.000 And so you know, if. 0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:28.840 You're willing to forgive all of that, then a Bill's 0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:32.639 love story could be just with the doctor ordered this weekend. 0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:34.479 I know, yeah, I don't know what it drops. If 0:22:34.480 --> 0:22:36.280 it drops, I'm not quite sure. I know some of 0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:38.480 the guys from the Sopranos, like Steve Shirrip is in it. 0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:40.119 I don't have no idea what to make it, this 0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:43.040 whole thing, but hey, what, there's plenty of stuff to 0:22:43.119 --> 0:22:45.880 watch on the small score. Let's talk about the big 0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:48.600 screen real quick. Here, what is out in theater so 0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:49.520 we should be interested in? 0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:52.960 Okay, So there's one sort of off the beaten path 0:22:52.960 --> 0:22:55.600 that I wanted to recommend to everybody, and it's called 0:22:55.640 --> 0:22:56.639 sentimental value. 0:22:56.840 --> 0:22:57.560 And DELLN. 0:22:57.640 --> 0:23:02.359 Scars Guard is like a a famous director. He's lost 0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:06.320 touch with his two daughters, and he comes to one 0:23:06.320 --> 0:23:08.399 of his daughters, who's an actress, and says, I've written 0:23:08.400 --> 0:23:10.160 this script and I want you to be in this movie. 0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:11.320 And she's like, you. 0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:11.960 Know, get lost. 0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:13.600 I haven't heard from you in years. 0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:16.359 And that's basically what the movie's about. 0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:17.919 But it's so well told. 0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:21.639 The challenge here for people wanting to feed is that 0:23:21.680 --> 0:23:23.280 it's limited relief. So it's not going to be in 0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:25.879 every theater or the closest theater maybe to you, but 0:23:26.119 --> 0:23:29.920 if you can find a theater that's playing it. 0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:34.920 I thought last weekend and it's just. 0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:36.600 It's really stuck with me, and I think, you know, 0:23:36.640 --> 0:23:39.119 it's really emotional and really well acted, and the script 0:23:39.160 --> 0:23:42.080 is fabulous. So I think when Oscar nominations come out 0:23:42.080 --> 0:23:45.240 in January, we'll probably be talking about this movie. Sentimental value. 0:23:45.480 --> 0:23:48.679 Sentimental value, okay, good? And so the place you can 0:23:48.720 --> 0:23:52.800 see that the theaters very Jonah Christmas and Frankenstein on Netflix. 0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:55.960 The Jonah Brothers Jonah's brothers once on Disney you said 0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:59.320 Disney Plus, that's correct, Yep, got it. See I remember, 0:23:59.480 --> 0:24:02.120 I listened, see I listen, will I listen? I got 0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:05.560 this all right? And the bill's love stories that Hallmark. 0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:11.199 Yeah, we have friends of no matter, Bill says, are like, 0:24:11.359 --> 0:24:13.840 I'm like, dude, I just because it's on there doesn't 0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:15.520 mean it's gonna be like why am I watching? I 0:24:15.520 --> 0:24:17.879 wouldn't watch this in any other way. I don't know 0:24:17.880 --> 0:24:19.560 what as I would be looking for. Like, I don't 0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:21.680 know there's gonna be a cameo by Josh Allen or something. 0:24:21.720 --> 0:24:25.119 I probably not. I look at this good. Yeah I don't. 0:24:25.640 --> 0:24:25.920 I don't. 0:24:25.960 --> 0:24:29.680 Okay, all right, good luck with that. Well, we will 0:24:29.720 --> 0:24:31.560 review that. Get back to me next week. See if 0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:33.720 that's where we do something for me for a change. 0:24:34.560 --> 0:24:37.680 I will okay this holiday gift here, all right. 0:24:37.720 --> 0:24:40.639 I want a full review and breakdown of the Bill's 0:24:40.640 --> 0:24:43.800 love story and Hallmark appreciate it, buddy, Thanks again, all right, 0:24:43.920 --> 0:24:46.119 have a great weekend. You to take care. Will dance 0:24:46.160 --> 0:24:49.920 in New York at Will Dance with two S's and 0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:51.959 we'll get a time out in and more to follow 0:24:52.000 --> 0:24:54.920 on this Friday morning. A lot of bad TV shows, 0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:57.280 I just a lot of thing is these days we 0:24:57.359 --> 0:25:01.919 have so many platforms, and if you have all these platforms, 0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:03.840 you need content, which is why you can go to 0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:05.600 you know, you do a deep day, you want to 0:25:05.600 --> 0:25:09.080 go to a rabbit hole if you have Amazon Prime, 0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:10.959 and I think there's other platforms that have this too, 0:25:11.000 --> 0:25:13.600 but Amazon Prime, you go in, they have just TV shows, 0:25:14.240 --> 0:25:16.879 and if there's a TV show that was ever made 0:25:17.000 --> 0:25:21.000 in the last thirty years and maybe even longer, you 0:25:21.119 --> 0:25:24.560 probably can find it on the live TV option of 0:25:24.600 --> 0:25:25.240 Amazon Prime. 0:25:25.280 --> 0:25:25.399 Now. 0:25:25.400 --> 0:25:27.479 I did just get recently an l I think it's 0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:29.879 an LGTV, and they have their own platform with a 0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:32.040 lot of the same shows on it. So like shows 0:25:32.080 --> 0:25:34.399 you haven't seen or thought, oh my god, like who's 0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:36.960 going Wow, I need a what was that show in 0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:42.000 the eighties? Wings? I need a murder? She wrote Channel 0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:45.359 it's there like YouTube TV. For some reason, I can't 0:25:45.359 --> 0:25:50.159 get ABC and Monday Night Football and Channel nine, but 0:25:50.280 --> 0:25:54.960 I can get the Portlandia channel where it just runs 0:25:55.040 --> 0:25:58.200 NonStop episodes of Portlandia. I don't know why they have 0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:00.800 their own channel or platform. I didn't know there was 0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:03.520 that kind of demand for that show, but it's there. 0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:06.760 So again, you have so many ways to get a 0:26:06.840 --> 0:26:09.200 product or and you don't have enough product out there, 0:26:09.400 --> 0:26:11.280 You're gonna get a lot of reruns, So I'd probably 0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:16.600 wait for a channel where it's just TV shows that 0:26:16.760 --> 0:26:20.760 lasted one season or less. Would that be fascinating? Maybe 0:26:20.800 --> 0:26:24.679 the worst channel of all time if you think, I 0:26:24.680 --> 0:26:27.440 don't know, like for example, home shopping on Christmas Day, 0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:30.440 they just run that static shot of a burning log 0:26:32.040 --> 0:26:37.600 the TV fireplace. It may be worse than that. The 0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.280 one one and done, the one and Done channel. It's 0:26:41.320 --> 0:26:45.160 called one and done, and there are tons of TV 0:26:45.280 --> 0:26:48.320 shows past present and definitely in the future where it's 0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:50.000 going to be one. It seems like a really good 0:26:50.040 --> 0:26:53.959 idea and they just they run the entire season. That 0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:55.879 would be something I like to see. You know, you 0:26:55.880 --> 0:26:57.520 you're scraping the bottom of the barrel and say, okay, 0:26:57.520 --> 0:26:59.359 we are out of stuff. We're not wearing shows that 0:26:59.400 --> 0:27:01.639 I can't weren't good enough to make it a season 0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:07.240 on network TV Done Fixed It waiting on that one 0:27:07.359 --> 0:27:10.639 quick time out, more ahead, Slowey Friday Morning, seven hundred WLW. 0:27:13.160 --> 0:27:16.520 How do you feel about this game on some day? Yeah? 0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:19.359 Me too. I don't know the make of this. Okay, Chicago, 0:27:19.440 --> 0:27:22.439 that was just what an embarrassing cut punch that was 0:27:22.560 --> 0:27:25.680 in a game you had won. This is a little 0:27:25.680 --> 0:27:28.639 bit different. Chicago's a better football team. Steelers. Typically the 0:27:28.640 --> 0:27:32.000 Steelers just rolling the division Steelers and Ravens and Bengals 0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:35.000 in Cleveland is still Cleveland. But man, and talking to 0:27:35.080 --> 0:27:37.919 Dan Horde at nine o'clock, we'll have more with Austin 0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:40.919 ten to thirty five on this. You just don't know 0:27:40.920 --> 0:27:43.560 what to make of the fcn Worth. Even with the 0:27:43.600 --> 0:27:47.320 Bengals below water record, it still feels like it's doable, right. 0:27:47.640 --> 0:27:49.639 I mean, the Steelers scored what ten points against the 0:27:49.720 --> 0:27:54.080 Chargers Aaron Rodgers two interceptions and a touchdown. He looked 0:27:55.240 --> 0:27:57.440 every bit of his almost forty two years of age 0:27:57.440 --> 0:28:00.760 at this point. And the efficiency is getting worse and 0:28:00.800 --> 0:28:03.480 worse and worse as the week's go round. Their offense 0:28:03.600 --> 0:28:05.520 is pretty much near the bottom of the NFL when 0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:08.400 it comes to yards per game? Can they get better? 0:28:08.440 --> 0:28:10.479 While they put yards up against the Bengals they did 0:28:10.480 --> 0:28:12.879 on Thursday and football they'll do it again, sure, but 0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:16.840 you know it's that war of attrition. I know who 0:28:16.840 --> 0:28:19.400 wants it less. I guess we'll find out Sunday. I 0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:22.680 guess we'll find out on Sunday. I plan on and 0:28:22.800 --> 0:28:24.919 listening to the game. We're watching the game for sure, just 0:28:24.960 --> 0:28:27.240 to see who shows up. But what happens, you know, 0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:30.360 typically it's you know, Steelers were the Mike Tomlin Lakes 0:28:30.359 --> 0:28:32.639 Steelers of years past. It wouldn't be a contest, but 0:28:32.720 --> 0:28:35.639 it certainly feels like the Bengals could sweep the season 0:28:35.680 --> 0:28:38.360 series for sure. We'll find out one o'clock on Sunday 0:28:38.360 --> 0:28:41.000 from Pittsburgh here on the Home the Best Bengals coverage 0:28:41.360 --> 0:28:46.000 seven hundred w WELW typical and usual suspects on the 0:28:46.000 --> 0:28:48.200 show this morning, something a little bit new. I don't 0:28:48.200 --> 0:28:49.680 know if you caught this, and I think it's an 0:28:49.680 --> 0:28:54.440 interesting story myself is this just broke overnight. So the 0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:59.280 chatbot Claude dot aih the Chinese used and this is 0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:02.720 the first time we have documented AI being used to hack, 0:29:04.000 --> 0:29:07.120 and they actually used a and I use this chatbot too, Claude. 0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:10.440 They actually use it to hack companies. And there's a 0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:12.959 new cyber thread out there that involves AI. We're all 0:29:12.960 --> 0:29:14.800 on AI now and even if you don't think you're 0:29:14.800 --> 0:29:18.200 on AR, you're on AI. And a lot of the 0:29:18.200 --> 0:29:20.400 stuff is encrypted. So if you're doing you know, if 0:29:20.440 --> 0:29:22.560 you work for a company that's well p ANDNG at 0:29:22.600 --> 0:29:26.840 the example, law, politics, maybe journalism, I don't know, and 0:29:26.880 --> 0:29:31.520 you're dealing with sensitive subject matter. There's a way they're 0:29:31.560 --> 0:29:36.640 now cracking encrypted conversations, and that the point of encrypting 0:29:36.680 --> 0:29:39.840 stuff is so so you don't have someone acking you, 0:29:39.920 --> 0:29:41.960 and yet apparently it's going on. We'll get to this 0:29:42.040 --> 0:29:44.440 with Chris and iis. He's the CEO of Cincinnati based 0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:48.400 Vigilant Cybersecurity. Coming up right after a news update here 0:29:48.400 --> 0:29:51.959 on seven hundred WLW. As the government opens back up, 0:29:52.000 --> 0:29:54.480 will you notice things? I will notice that maybe you're 0:29:54.920 --> 0:29:57.400 in the the next couple of weeks, maybe the airports 0:29:57.400 --> 0:29:59.160 won't be as bad, but we're headed towards the holiday 0:29:59.200 --> 0:30:02.479 travel season. I don't know. Sure will notice that's certainly 0:30:02.480 --> 0:30:06.440 it's good having all the FA employees back and you know, 0:30:06.640 --> 0:30:09.720 hopefully working at full capacity during the busy time of season. 0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:12.880 But you know, sadly, we're probably going to just repeat 0:30:12.880 --> 0:30:15.680 this exercise I think in six weeks, in just about 0:30:15.680 --> 0:30:18.320 six weeks, so January will do this all over again. 0:30:19.520 --> 0:30:21.840 And you wonder, as bad as this was, as long 0:30:21.880 --> 0:30:25.000 as this whole thing was, that maybe politicians said, hey, 0:30:25.000 --> 0:30:26.440 you know what, maybe it's not a good idea to 0:30:26.480 --> 0:30:28.680 shut it down. Maybe I don't know if we do 0:30:28.720 --> 0:30:30.680 this again in six weeks, you would hope that there 0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:33.200 will be some sort of rebellion by us, the people 0:30:33.600 --> 0:30:36.480 going enough of this nonsense. Do your jobs. And I 0:30:36.560 --> 0:30:38.280 know that the right will blame the left, left will 0:30:38.320 --> 0:30:41.960 blame the right. And you know, you shut the government 0:30:42.000 --> 0:30:44.640 down because you're holding out the healthcare. You left with nothing, 0:30:44.680 --> 0:30:47.479 and now Charles Fritz Schumer's job is in question, as 0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:49.760 leadership role as a question. And that's all politics. That's good, 0:30:49.760 --> 0:30:52.040 but again, it's about the American people. It's about me 0:30:52.080 --> 0:30:55.840 and you and you know coming to it, hopefully a 0:30:55.880 --> 0:30:58.120 solution before they have to shut the government down again. 0:30:58.160 --> 0:31:01.480 I don't hold out hope that's going to happen, because 0:31:01.520 --> 0:31:03.800 I just have a sneaking sense that you know, no 0:31:03.840 --> 0:31:05.960 one is holding them accountable, at least those of us here, 0:31:06.080 --> 0:31:08.480 the eighty percent of us who are tired of this nonsense. 0:31:08.960 --> 0:31:11.520 It's just simply are not vocal enough about it. I 0:31:11.560 --> 0:31:13.480 don't know if that'll change. Really, we'll do a news 0:31:13.520 --> 0:31:15.920 update and we'll get into that AI stuff just ahead 0:31:15.920 --> 0:31:18.440 here on the Scott Plone Show on seven hundred WW Cincinnati. 0:31:18.560 --> 0:31:22.360 Don't want to Friday Morning with Scott's loan here on 0:31:22.400 --> 0:31:26.880 seven hundred WLW, also on the iHeartRadio app take us 0:31:26.880 --> 0:31:29.440 wherever you go. We portable like that. So not to 0:31:29.560 --> 0:31:31.720 freak you out a little bit, but this is important 0:31:31.760 --> 0:31:35.240 if you are doing work on AI. A lot of 0:31:35.320 --> 0:31:37.560 us are using AI for our jobs these days, and 0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:40.000 especially if you're in a sentenceitive field. It could be medicine, 0:31:40.000 --> 0:31:43.440 could be law, could be politics, who knows, P and G. 0:31:43.760 --> 0:31:47.360 Of course, highly sensitive information, corporate information. Use AI as 0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:50.320 part of your job. There's a new cyber threat called 0:31:50.320 --> 0:31:52.960 the Whisper Leak, and we actually had an AI. Will 0:31:52.960 --> 0:31:54.720 get in a second, but we actually had an AI 0:31:56.120 --> 0:31:58.680 being used by the Chinese. And this story broke overnight 0:31:59.160 --> 0:32:02.720 involving one AI chatbot that they're using AI now to 0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:08.280 hack servers and databases. Joining the show, he is the 0:32:08.320 --> 0:32:11.800 CEO of vigil and Cybersecurity based out of here in Cincinnati. 0:32:11.880 --> 0:32:13.120 Chris and I Heist. Welcome. How are you. 0:32:14.520 --> 0:32:16.920 I'm doing pretty good on this rainy Cincinnati morning. 0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:20.320 Yes, yes, yes, yes, ready to go. So let's let's 0:32:20.320 --> 0:32:23.240 get into what just happened overnight with the Chinese and 0:32:23.320 --> 0:32:26.800 using AI. What happened and what was the platform? What 0:32:26.920 --> 0:32:29.160 I compromised. Right. 0:32:29.240 --> 0:32:32.360 So Anthropic a company they're out in San Francisco. They 0:32:32.400 --> 0:32:35.400 have a technology called Claude and it's a pretty amazing tech. 0:32:35.440 --> 0:32:37.760 It's very similar to chat GPT, but yeah, a lot 0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:40.640 more effective in like writing code things like that. Basically, 0:32:40.640 --> 0:32:44.800 what happened is these technologies are meant and built to 0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:48.120 be ethical. They're not meant to do things legal, but 0:32:48.160 --> 0:32:50.760 you can you can convince them to do different things. 0:32:50.840 --> 0:32:51.680 You know, different people have. 0:32:51.680 --> 0:32:55.160 Used it to hack and and and you know, different aspects. 0:32:55.160 --> 0:32:58.280 But in this case, what Chinese hackers did was they 0:32:58.320 --> 0:33:02.200 got into Claude and Claud's got tons of processing power, 0:33:02.760 --> 0:33:06.480 and they convinced Claude that it was a security researcher 0:33:06.640 --> 0:33:09.840 for a security organization here in the United States and 0:33:09.880 --> 0:33:12.400 that they were doing research on some customers of THEIRS 0:33:12.400 --> 0:33:14.960 and they needed to write a bunch of code and 0:33:15.000 --> 0:33:18.000 execute that. What they did basically was they created an 0:33:18.000 --> 0:33:21.440 attack against the you know, a bunch of different organizations. Uh, 0:33:21.480 --> 0:33:25.280 and we're able to carry that attack out using Claud's 0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:27.800 processing power and AI technology. 0:33:28.480 --> 0:33:32.080 That's kind of that, that's kind of nefarious but brilliant 0:33:32.120 --> 0:33:35.120 in a way. And now using AI because your fingerprints 0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.720 all are over it, right, Oh, it's all over it. 0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:38.000 Yeah. 0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:41.080 And what's really well, what's interesting too is you know 0:33:41.160 --> 0:33:45.160 it was coming from Claude's servers, so you know, organizations 0:33:45.160 --> 0:33:47.200 are allowing that, right, so it doesn't look like it's 0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:47.800 directly come. 0:33:47.720 --> 0:33:48.680 From from the Chinese. 0:33:48.680 --> 0:33:51.120 And even with Claude, you know, Anthropic, they had to 0:33:51.240 --> 0:33:54.800 look back through logs recon you know, reattached and there 0:33:55.040 --> 0:33:58.120 they're almost certain is what they're saying, that that there's 0:33:58.120 --> 0:34:01.120 evidence that it was coming originating from China. But even then, 0:34:01.840 --> 0:34:03.520 you know, you and I have talked about it. It's 0:34:03.640 --> 0:34:06.959 very easy to make yourself look like somebody else, you know, 0:34:07.080 --> 0:34:08.720 and that's how it happens. 0:34:08.840 --> 0:34:11.160 Well, and that's amazing too, because it's Chinese or Russian 0:34:11.480 --> 0:34:13.600 or you know, other actors out there. But every time 0:34:13.600 --> 0:34:15.439 we have all this information against them, they just deny 0:34:15.480 --> 0:34:17.680 it and nothing ever comes of it. It's not like 0:34:18.080 --> 0:34:20.520 you need some way to you know, it's not like 0:34:20.560 --> 0:34:22.319 we have a court you could go to and say, well, 0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:24.960 we're final lawsuit. They just go, yeah, it wasn't us, 0:34:25.000 --> 0:34:28.440 and then you never hear it again, right right, hey, 0:34:28.440 --> 0:34:29.319 you never hear of it again. 0:34:29.360 --> 0:34:31.080 It just goes, it goes away, and you know, a 0:34:31.080 --> 0:34:34.480 lot of it has to do with geopolitical interactions. You know, 0:34:35.280 --> 0:34:38.160 these are things that you know, again, you know, we're 0:34:38.320 --> 0:34:41.319 we're we're a nation state to them, right, and so 0:34:41.360 --> 0:34:44.160 they're having the same conversation as probably other radio stations 0:34:44.200 --> 0:34:47.200 as well. But you know, because we we do things 0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:49.960 vice versa. It's it's a war. You know, it's a 0:34:50.000 --> 0:34:52.759 cyber war. And you know we've talked before it's it's 0:34:52.760 --> 0:34:55.839 all about positioning. But in this case, you know, we're 0:34:55.840 --> 0:34:57.560 in the United States, we have to really look at 0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:01.400 things and protect ourselves in these ways. And what's crazy 0:35:01.400 --> 0:35:04.439 about it is we're creating all this technology that then 0:35:04.560 --> 0:35:06.760 gets turned right back around and used against us. 0:35:07.400 --> 0:35:09.440 All right, so let's pivot to this. Chris speaking of 0:35:09.560 --> 0:35:13.439 a I new cyber threats called Whisper Lake, and it's 0:35:13.480 --> 0:35:16.280 AI involved here too. We just we're just talking about 0:35:16.280 --> 0:35:18.360 here and so now they don't have to get and 0:35:18.400 --> 0:35:21.480 they're just looking at what your pattern of traffic is, 0:35:21.520 --> 0:35:23.560 in the timing of your traffic, and then they guess 0:35:23.680 --> 0:35:25.040 what it is. You're it's like clip. 0:35:24.880 --> 0:35:28.440 Reading, right, it is, it's like flip flip reading, and 0:35:29.200 --> 0:35:31.840 you know, what whisper leak happened. What these researchers did, 0:35:32.320 --> 0:35:34.399 and this has been out for about eight months now, 0:35:34.880 --> 0:35:37.320 it's just starting to hit the news. That's that's pretty 0:35:37.360 --> 0:35:39.839 much a trend. If you hear about things generally now 0:35:39.880 --> 0:35:42.040 here on this show, you hear things a lot earlier 0:35:42.040 --> 0:35:44.880 than you would in in other media outlets, just because 0:35:45.000 --> 0:35:47.239 you know, you tend to be really focused on and 0:35:47.239 --> 0:35:50.000 I think it's awesome. But this is something that's been 0:35:50.040 --> 0:35:53.440 out for a while and it's just starting to get 0:35:53.480 --> 0:35:57.680 some traction. But what these researchers did was they looked 0:35:57.680 --> 0:35:59.680 at patterns. And the thing we have to realize about 0:35:59.680 --> 0:36:03.480 AI is AI is not like most AI that we 0:36:03.520 --> 0:36:05.279 interact with, is not like a thinking brain. 0:36:05.440 --> 0:36:07.080 It's really just a pattern matcher. 0:36:07.320 --> 0:36:10.000 And so if you interact with it, or I interact 0:36:10.040 --> 0:36:12.239 with it now I ask it the same questions, or 0:36:12.280 --> 0:36:14.000 we asked it the same question of the same topic, 0:36:14.520 --> 0:36:16.800 it's going to actually have the same pattern in the 0:36:16.840 --> 0:36:17.680 way it responds. 0:36:17.920 --> 0:36:20.040 So what these researchers did was they. 0:36:19.880 --> 0:36:24.600 Went out and just asked twenty eight different AI platforms, 0:36:24.680 --> 0:36:27.399 large language models, and they said, hey, tell me about money, 0:36:27.440 --> 0:36:29.759 laundry and tell me about financial tell me about the 0:36:29.760 --> 0:36:34.560 space industry, these types of things, and they then documented 0:36:35.160 --> 0:36:39.200 the way in which it responded. Now anybody can do this, 0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:42.160 and in fact, they actually released the code, so anybody 0:36:42.200 --> 0:36:43.879 can go out and do this. They can create these 0:36:43.880 --> 0:36:46.680 patterns and then what they do then is they just 0:36:46.840 --> 0:36:50.279 sit on a network at a Starbucks or they set 0:36:50.280 --> 0:36:54.200 it at a corporate network or wherever. As long as 0:36:54.280 --> 0:36:57.160 you can capture or see someone's traffic that they're going 0:36:57.200 --> 0:37:00.000 to the Internet with, you can actually match that traffic. 0:37:00.120 --> 0:37:00.719 So quick. 0:37:00.760 --> 0:37:06.279 Analogy if for everybody to understand this is it's I 0:37:06.360 --> 0:37:08.759 take a letter, handwriting, hand written letter, and I hand 0:37:08.760 --> 0:37:09.040 it to you. 0:37:09.320 --> 0:37:10.160 It's not encrypted. 0:37:10.200 --> 0:37:12.640 Anyone that intercepts the letter can read it everything I 0:37:12.680 --> 0:37:16.360 have in it. In this case, it's encrypted my transaction 0:37:16.480 --> 0:37:18.879 between me and you. So if I wrote that letter, 0:37:18.960 --> 0:37:21.920 put in an envelope and handed it to you, the 0:37:21.920 --> 0:37:23.719 postman's not going to read it. You know, no one's 0:37:23.719 --> 0:37:26.480 going to read it until you open that up. But 0:37:26.680 --> 0:37:29.400 what they can see is how big is the envelope? 0:37:29.840 --> 0:37:32.799 You know, what is it wigh different things about the 0:37:32.880 --> 0:37:36.640 characteristics of that and so you know, if I'm sending 0:37:36.680 --> 0:37:40.400 you something and someone knows what's in it originally, or 0:37:40.440 --> 0:37:43.240 they test that they can they can create a pattern 0:37:43.280 --> 0:37:46.759 of weight, size, things like that that they can then 0:37:46.760 --> 0:37:49.800 infer what I'm talking about. And so the big problem 0:37:49.800 --> 0:37:54.160 here is people can can now look at the package 0:37:54.320 --> 0:37:57.240 of your communication and see what you're talking about. 0:37:58.080 --> 0:38:02.760 Wow, it's it's yes, like looking through the envelope basically 0:38:02.840 --> 0:38:04.960 at this point that that's pretty scary. But the good 0:38:04.960 --> 0:38:07.680 news is this was this whole thing was run by Microsoft. 0:38:07.760 --> 0:38:11.120 So this wasn't a hack. It wasn't. 0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:15.279 But this is and this is the issue right with disclosure, 0:38:15.719 --> 0:38:20.120 is it was run by Microsoft security researchers did it. 0:38:20.880 --> 0:38:24.400 They released it nine months ago, They released all their code, 0:38:24.560 --> 0:38:28.160 all their findings. Anybody can go grab that code and 0:38:28.200 --> 0:38:33.600 can redo it. So guaranteed that one someone's grabbed that code. 0:38:34.080 --> 0:38:37.839 But also guaranteed is that even before Microsoft reached it 0:38:38.040 --> 0:38:40.520 did it, someone else researched this and figured it out. 0:38:40.640 --> 0:38:43.840 So you know, it's yeah, it's a it's a pretty 0:38:43.840 --> 0:38:44.919 big it's a pretty big deal. 0:38:45.520 --> 0:38:47.680 Chris and I Heiss is here. He's CEO of vigil 0:38:47.680 --> 0:38:50.719 and Cybersecurity based out of Cincinnati. Now we have some 0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:53.040 worry about AI in a different way, and that is 0:38:53.360 --> 0:38:56.040 the Chinese just use this overnight on claud dot ai. 0:38:56.120 --> 0:38:58.480 That's there. I use that platform to it us. Wonderful 0:38:59.520 --> 0:39:03.160 they were able to use code, have AI write code 0:39:03.160 --> 0:39:05.800 to create a hack with The other thing too is 0:39:05.800 --> 0:39:08.080 whisper leak what we're talking about now. And you know, 0:39:08.080 --> 0:39:10.040 if you are in a sensitive business where you use 0:39:10.080 --> 0:39:11.600 AI in the course of your job and you have 0:39:11.680 --> 0:39:14.400 sensitive information putting that out there, you think it's encoded, 0:39:15.000 --> 0:39:18.560 there's a way for bad actors to see through that, 0:39:18.680 --> 0:39:21.320 not break the code necessarily, but rather be able to 0:39:21.360 --> 0:39:23.440 figure out based on what time, what the content is 0:39:23.480 --> 0:39:25.120 and to like to figure out what it is you're doing. 0:39:25.840 --> 0:39:28.960 I don't know if that gives you explicit details about tappening, 0:39:29.000 --> 0:39:31.040 but they said it happens with something like ninety eight 0:39:31.040 --> 0:39:33.319 percent accuracy. They're able to guess what's going on here. 0:39:33.400 --> 0:39:35.279 So and the other thing that we know about digital 0:39:35.560 --> 0:39:37.839 fingerprints online, but I think it probably surprised a lot 0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:41.040 of people that it's encrypted, that we're leaving a digital 0:39:41.040 --> 0:39:44.080 fingerprint with AI. Right. 0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:46.680 Well, it's the thing here is is that you know, 0:39:46.760 --> 0:39:51.040 normal communication doesn't have patterns, it's all jumbled up. It's 0:39:51.120 --> 0:39:54.680 encrypted a certain way. The problem with working with AI 0:39:54.880 --> 0:39:57.000 because you know, like you and I are talking in 0:39:57.040 --> 0:40:00.200 our conversation has no real pattern to it. You know, 0:40:00.400 --> 0:40:03.520 it's where going different directions. But when you're talking to AI, 0:40:03.880 --> 0:40:06.840 it's a pattern matching technology. So it's really just taking 0:40:07.239 --> 0:40:09.920 a question that anyone asks, it goes out to what 0:40:09.960 --> 0:40:12.319 it's learned, and it responds in almost the exact same 0:40:12.320 --> 0:40:16.480 way every time, so you can infer what it's talking about. 0:40:16.480 --> 0:40:19.000 And you know you mentioned security researchers. You know, Apple 0:40:19.000 --> 0:40:22.600 when they built their new facility, they built the Starbucks 0:40:22.640 --> 0:40:29.080 inside their their facility out in California because if you sit, 0:40:29.239 --> 0:40:31.120 if you know, their team members were going out working 0:40:31.160 --> 0:40:33.360 at coffee shops in the area, and they actually forbid 0:40:33.400 --> 0:40:36.280 them from doing it. Because if you can capture someone's 0:40:36.320 --> 0:40:39.560 traffic with things like AI, you can see that pattern. 0:40:39.680 --> 0:40:42.880 So you know, if you're a security researcher or you know, 0:40:42.960 --> 0:40:45.760 someone could know what your role is, uh say, for instance, 0:40:45.760 --> 0:40:49.480 practor and gamble right. If at PG or ge right, 0:40:49.800 --> 0:40:54.040 someone was a aerospace engineer and they went and said, 0:40:54.040 --> 0:40:57.000 at a coffee shop here in Cincinnati, and there was 0:40:57.040 --> 0:41:00.880 a Chinese espionage spy sitting in there, which happens, by 0:41:00.920 --> 0:41:03.880 the way, same reason Apple forbid everybody from going to 0:41:03.920 --> 0:41:06.200 there because they know this happens, and they're sitting on 0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:08.160 the network and they and they can capture that traffic, 0:41:08.400 --> 0:41:12.279 right which is not extremely difficult to do. They could 0:41:12.360 --> 0:41:16.719 then see what gees researching in aerospace, you know, if 0:41:16.719 --> 0:41:20.800 that person's using AI based on topics, and from that 0:41:21.120 --> 0:41:24.080 they can then create, you know, additional attacks against us 0:41:24.120 --> 0:41:26.880 for that, or if you're a lawyer and you're researching 0:41:26.920 --> 0:41:30.799 a certain type of of of a case, or if 0:41:30.840 --> 0:41:33.960 you're a criminal and you're searching researching money laundry. In fact, 0:41:34.440 --> 0:41:38.160 money laundering across every AM model was able to be 0:41:38.719 --> 0:41:42.239 found out with precision one of the time in their 0:41:42.239 --> 0:41:47.680 in their research. Yeh, search money laundering. 0:41:47.719 --> 0:41:50.080 I'd have tested. Just see, I got nothing going this weekend. 0:41:50.120 --> 0:41:55.800 I'm up for some fun, Chris. A lot of big companies, 0:41:55.800 --> 0:41:57.920 I am not even huge companies, but but big especially 0:41:57.960 --> 0:42:00.560 public trade. You mentioned GEPG, except that they have their own 0:42:00.600 --> 0:42:04.080 AI internal AI platforms. Does it make a difference. 0:42:05.440 --> 0:42:09.200 Uh, well it does if they're using those platforms internally. 0:42:10.000 --> 0:42:12.720 You know, you you would have to capture the traffic 0:42:12.760 --> 0:42:15.720 on the inside of the network. So now I'll say 0:42:15.840 --> 0:42:17.520 this is something a lot of people don't think about, 0:42:17.520 --> 0:42:19.480 but I mean you and I talked about this recently. 0:42:19.880 --> 0:42:22.960 The North Koreans were having people get hired into companies 0:42:22.960 --> 0:42:24.759 here in the United States and working for them. So 0:42:25.440 --> 0:42:27.400 you got to be really careful and even inside your 0:42:27.480 --> 0:42:30.120 organization now to make sure you don't have people that 0:42:30.239 --> 0:42:33.480 are there committing espionage also, but it is a lot 0:42:33.560 --> 0:42:37.960 safer if people have a language model internally. Uh, you know, 0:42:38.000 --> 0:42:40.279 we do it vigilant. You know, we've taken these these 0:42:40.320 --> 0:42:43.360 models builtam in. Our team interacts with that for sensitive things. 0:42:44.480 --> 0:42:47.319 You know, if you don't have that, that opportunity a 0:42:47.320 --> 0:42:49.520 way you can protect yourself is and you should do 0:42:49.520 --> 0:42:53.239 this anyway, but if you're ever interact with AI, uh, 0:42:53.760 --> 0:42:55.560 you know, even if you know, if you're in a 0:42:55.600 --> 0:42:58.759 public space or you're in a network that you don't control, 0:42:59.080 --> 0:43:01.560 always connect to v you know, proton VPN. 0:43:01.800 --> 0:43:03.520 There's a bunch of different vpms out there that you 0:43:03.520 --> 0:43:04.160 can use. 0:43:04.320 --> 0:43:08.840 That are very inexpensive and and it'll mask that traffic. 0:43:09.320 --> 0:43:09.560 You know. 0:43:10.120 --> 0:43:12.680 You know, the thing that we just have to realize 0:43:12.719 --> 0:43:16.800 is the moment our traffic leaves our network or our computer. 0:43:16.920 --> 0:43:19.920 Even if you're in incognito mode in your browser or 0:43:20.200 --> 0:43:25.200 a safe mode, everywhere you're going can still be tied 0:43:25.239 --> 0:43:28.080 back to you and the exact location you're at, right, 0:43:28.080 --> 0:43:32.480 I mean, Microsoft is releasing to teams this week actually 0:43:32.920 --> 0:43:36.320 to where in Microsoft Teams it'll show the IP location 0:43:37.239 --> 0:43:40.880 of where you're sitting at, even if you're on a 0:43:40.960 --> 0:43:43.920 VPN too, so because it's looking at your local Wi Fi. 0:43:44.600 --> 0:43:48.040 Those are things in information that Microsoft's had for years. 0:43:48.239 --> 0:43:50.480 It's just now they're making it available to companies to 0:43:50.520 --> 0:43:54.360 be able to see. Right, So anytime traffic leaves your network, 0:43:54.560 --> 0:43:58.160 if you're going whatever website, you're going to the incognito 0:43:58.200 --> 0:44:00.680 mode and things like that only mask what's happening, like 0:44:00.960 --> 0:44:04.360 tracking it on your system in terms of logs. It 0:44:04.480 --> 0:44:08.680 doesn't stop you know, an Internet provider or someone else 0:44:08.680 --> 0:44:11.360 from knowing where you went, what you did, gotcha. 0:44:11.400 --> 0:44:14.520 So that's important people. I'm incognito mode, but that really 0:44:14.719 --> 0:44:17.120 doesn't do is what you think it's doing. It does. 0:44:17.600 --> 0:44:19.000 It doesn't do what you think it is doing. 0:44:19.280 --> 0:44:21.640 All it's doing is if someone comes to your laptop 0:44:21.719 --> 0:44:24.759 later and they look at your browser history, Uh, you 0:44:24.800 --> 0:44:27.200 know it's not going to be there. It's also gonna 0:44:27.560 --> 0:44:31.160 uh stop cookies from tracking you on the internet, but 0:44:31.480 --> 0:44:32.480 it's not stopping. 0:44:33.200 --> 0:44:33.319 Uh. 0:44:33.360 --> 0:44:34.879 You know, if you go to a website, they're still 0:44:34.880 --> 0:44:37.840 going to know where you're coming from because you're connecting 0:44:37.880 --> 0:44:39.399 to them. They're going to know your originating IP. 0:44:40.200 --> 0:44:40.359 Uh. 0:44:40.400 --> 0:44:42.480 It's going to be in their logs, you know, on 0:44:42.560 --> 0:44:43.160 the other site. 0:44:43.719 --> 0:44:46.279 Uh, you know and uh and so that's why you know, 0:44:46.280 --> 0:44:49.960 if you nick the VPNs, then your origination point changes, 0:44:50.400 --> 0:44:54.000 you know, yes, you know, yeah, yeah, you know, it's different. 0:44:53.840 --> 0:44:55.480 Which is why when you log in somewhere and it 0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:58.239 says you know, you're they think you're in Alaska or 0:44:58.320 --> 0:45:00.319 Russia or something. You're like, well, I'm not a I know. 0:45:00.360 --> 0:45:02.200 That's just like bouncing it around the world, is what's 0:45:02.239 --> 0:45:05.040 going on. So they can find you right exactly now. 0:45:05.040 --> 0:45:06.840 And if I'm in a Starbucks and I connect to 0:45:06.880 --> 0:45:09.400 Wi Fi, or if I'm in a hotel and I 0:45:09.440 --> 0:45:12.840 connect to Wii or to Wi Fi, it's if someone's 0:45:12.840 --> 0:45:16.440 on that network, uh, and they've done certain things. They 0:45:16.440 --> 0:45:19.480 can see my traffic even if it's encrypted. They can 0:45:19.480 --> 0:45:21.560 know where I'm going, what I'm doing, who I work for. 0:45:22.160 --> 0:45:22.279 Uh. 0:45:22.560 --> 0:45:25.799 If I get on a VPN, then it shrouds that 0:45:25.960 --> 0:45:29.520 traffic all the way to the VPN provider and no 0:45:29.600 --> 0:45:30.799 one locally is going to know what. 0:45:30.800 --> 0:45:33.760 I'm doing and and so yeah. 0:45:33.680 --> 0:45:35.560 Yeah, so I mean in this case with AI, you know, 0:45:35.640 --> 0:45:39.440 the AI providers are starting to see how they can 0:45:40.280 --> 0:45:45.280 more randomize the way in which the communication looks different. 0:45:45.320 --> 0:45:47.000 You know, in our case with the envelope, maybe they 0:45:47.000 --> 0:45:50.279 send a Manila envelope tomorrow, and they send a white 0:45:50.320 --> 0:45:53.880 envelope tomorrow in the next day, they add some coins 0:45:53.880 --> 0:45:55.480 into it to make it heavier or whatever. 0:45:56.320 --> 0:45:57.760 That's what they're doing with the traffic. 0:45:57.840 --> 0:46:00.560 It's just trying to do that, right yea junk out, 0:46:00.560 --> 0:46:04.040 Oh that that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, But your protections 0:46:04.080 --> 0:46:06.000 on your own, like you have to protect yourself, you 0:46:06.040 --> 0:46:07.480 have to get on VPN, you have to do those 0:46:07.520 --> 0:46:09.960 things because these these issues are always going to exist, all right. 0:46:09.960 --> 0:46:11.879 So you're in business and you're you know, you're using 0:46:11.920 --> 0:46:16.359 AI with important data, right, proprietary information as we're called, 0:46:16.480 --> 0:46:18.360 and you're you're out there and a wife, I do this. 0:46:18.440 --> 0:46:21.200 Be careful with AI because you've been warned at this point. 0:46:21.200 --> 0:46:23.799 Now they're able to get this information. Believe Chris said, 0:46:23.840 --> 0:46:28.480 and I heeis over at Vigilant Cybersecurity here in Cincinnati. 0:46:28.520 --> 0:46:30.960 Always appreciate the insight and time. Thanks again, brother, have 0:46:30.960 --> 0:46:33.440 a great weekend, Uh my pleasure. Thank you. Take care. Yeah, 0:46:33.440 --> 0:46:34.920 we're got to get news update and of course we'll 0:46:34.920 --> 0:46:36.760 find out what's going on there. The weather's looking okay. 0:46:37.000 --> 0:46:40.000 It's okay for football tonight for sure in Bearcat Game 0:46:40.080 --> 0:46:42.880 Day Bengals in Pittsburgh this weekend. If you're headed out there, 0:46:42.880 --> 0:46:44.840 whether it looks okay as well. Full update with that 0:46:44.960 --> 0:46:47.040 traffic and winn a turn of the show. Speaking of 0:46:47.080 --> 0:46:50.720 the Bengals, Austin Elmore is here from ESPN fifteen thirty. 0:46:51.480 --> 0:46:54.360 We'll talk about the Bearcats to some degree, some interesting 0:46:54.520 --> 0:46:58.360 MLS news. The schedule and MLS will be changing in 0:46:58.400 --> 0:47:00.560 the next two years, I said, change the time of 0:47:00.640 --> 0:47:04.520 year they play soccer at TQL Stadium, and we'll get 0:47:04.520 --> 0:47:08.279 into that Bengals Steelers matchup as well, and what to 0:47:08.320 --> 0:47:10.719 anticipate in this game and one another one of those 0:47:10.760 --> 0:47:12.439 games you scratch you and now I have no idea 0:47:12.480 --> 0:47:14.120 which teams are going to show up for this one. 0:47:15.040 --> 0:47:17.799 Pittsburgh has not been playing well for a while now, 0:47:17.840 --> 0:47:20.880 and right about the time the Bengals started getting after him. 0:47:20.880 --> 0:47:22.799 The rest of the league is caught up a very 0:47:22.880 --> 0:47:26.879 Untomland like Mike Tomlin like squad. At the same time, 0:47:26.920 --> 0:47:29.719 the Bengals have their own difficulties with injuries any wonder 0:47:29.760 --> 0:47:32.160 at the end position. Trey Hendrickson is out, but so 0:47:32.200 --> 0:47:35.759 is Shamar Stewart. We'll see what shakes out this weekend anyway, Austin. 0:47:35.840 --> 0:47:38.239 The latest on this coming up in just a few 0:47:38.239 --> 0:47:41.640 minutes here on seven hundred w WELW Friday mornings at 0:47:41.640 --> 0:47:43.319 tend to lighten it up a little bit or a lot, 0:47:43.360 --> 0:47:45.320 as the case may be, and just talk about fun things, 0:47:46.160 --> 0:47:49.240 whether it's sports or what's happening in the Fountain district. 0:47:49.280 --> 0:47:51.440 I know we're worried about crime and Fountain Square and 0:47:51.480 --> 0:47:53.759 around the city for that matter. It's a concern, but 0:47:53.840 --> 0:47:57.160 does that prevent you to dissuade you from going town 0:47:57.520 --> 0:48:00.640 and enjoying what the city has to offer. Me personally, 0:48:00.680 --> 0:48:03.600 not so much certain times a day, certain areas maybe, 0:48:04.600 --> 0:48:06.840 but not too concerned about it. I'll be honest with you, 0:48:07.360 --> 0:48:09.480 and I tend to be a little situationally aware. Know 0:48:09.520 --> 0:48:13.239 what's going on, that's ed. I know that We're going 0:48:13.280 --> 0:48:15.080 to see a whole different look at Fountain Square in 0:48:15.120 --> 0:48:17.239 the Fountain District as we call it when it comes 0:48:17.239 --> 0:48:19.640 to the holidays. Christie Simood from three c dc'll be 0:48:19.680 --> 0:48:22.320 on the show at eleven oh seven explain the big 0:48:22.440 --> 0:48:25.480 changes in store for the how they look downtown, at 0:48:25.480 --> 0:48:27.600 Fountain Square and elsewhere. She's coming up in a few 0:48:27.640 --> 0:48:30.239 minutes here as the Scott's Loan Show continues on the 0:48:30.280 --> 0:48:32.880 Home of the Best Bengals coverage seven hundred WWD. Since then, 0:48:39.360 --> 0:48:44.440 Scott's Loan Show seven hundred WLW, Austin Elmore from ESPN 0:48:44.520 --> 0:48:47.360 fifteen thirty pops in on Friday mornings talk about I 0:48:47.440 --> 0:48:50.080 think sports related and today would be no exception. How 0:48:50.160 --> 0:48:53.040 are you, bigg and you're good clearing, My throats are 0:48:53.080 --> 0:48:56.960 clear and the cough button there. I'm good. How are you? 0:48:57.040 --> 0:49:01.799 I'm doing fine, jumping right into it tomorrow. You've got 0:49:01.840 --> 0:49:04.680 Tony Pikes. You see Bearcats at home against the Wildcats 0:49:04.719 --> 0:49:08.359 of Arizona. Everyone is looking at the BYU game. It's 0:49:08.360 --> 0:49:10.600 sold out already. No one's paying attention to this. Does 0:49:10.640 --> 0:49:11.520 that make you nervous? 0:49:11.719 --> 0:49:15.200 Yeah, Tony and I were just having a conversation before 0:49:15.280 --> 0:49:16.759 the show earlier and he's like. 0:49:16.800 --> 0:49:19.160 I got I don't know about this game. 0:49:19.239 --> 0:49:23.000 Everyone's kind of looking towards by right, Arizona maybe better 0:49:23.080 --> 0:49:25.719 than we thought. An experienced quarterback who's seen a lot 0:49:25.760 --> 0:49:28.239 of things. Not that different of a team than you see, 0:49:28.320 --> 0:49:31.080 to be honest, because Mobile, you know, shifty. It's not 0:49:31.239 --> 0:49:33.920 like it's going to be unbearably cold on Saturday at 0:49:33.960 --> 0:49:35.520 Nippert Stadium. I think the high is going to be 0:49:35.520 --> 0:49:38.680 sixty six, So it's not like Arizona will be thrown 0:49:38.719 --> 0:49:41.760 off by the frigid temperatures of Cincinnati, Ohio. 0:49:42.040 --> 0:49:42.919 So yeah, I. 0:49:42.840 --> 0:49:46.480 Think you know, after a performance the way that they 0:49:46.480 --> 0:49:50.000 had against Utah after a bye week, you just hope 0:49:50.000 --> 0:49:51.640 that the Bearcats don't come out sleepy. 0:49:51.760 --> 0:49:54.120 Yeah, and thinking about that BYU game and if hey, 0:49:54.120 --> 0:49:56.000 we run the table, don't worry about Arizona. We got 0:49:56.000 --> 0:49:58.239 two more games. We should be able to be And 0:49:58.360 --> 0:50:00.640 let's keep in mind that this is a team. It's 0:50:00.719 --> 0:50:03.560 last week. Gave b Yu all they can handle, right, Yeah, 0:50:03.800 --> 0:50:06.480 I mean Arizona and that whole conference. I don't know 0:50:06.520 --> 0:50:09.040 that there's outside of Texas Tech who's very, very good 0:50:09.120 --> 0:50:10.840 and I think one of the best teams in the country, 0:50:11.440 --> 0:50:14.200 that next group of guys, that next group of players 0:50:15.120 --> 0:50:19.240 or teams is I think they're all just varying degrees 0:50:19.239 --> 0:50:22.839 of separation, very similar teams. So I think the big 0:50:22.840 --> 0:50:25.759 thing is how does Brendan Soresby respond from a bad 0:50:25.800 --> 0:50:28.720 performance against Utah? I mean, he was a big reason 0:50:28.760 --> 0:50:30.879 why they lost that game and turning the ball over, 0:50:31.440 --> 0:50:33.480 and last year when he would turn the ball over 0:50:33.600 --> 0:50:36.480 had a bad performance, it kind of snowballed. Does he 0:50:36.600 --> 0:50:40.000 have the next step this year where he leaves that 0:50:40.200 --> 0:50:43.279 in Utah off of a bye week and can get 0:50:43.280 --> 0:50:45.120 back to playing the football that we saw him play 0:50:45.120 --> 0:50:47.440 for the majority of this season before he gets the Bengals, 0:50:48.440 --> 0:50:50.000 I wanted to I'm gonna mix it up a little 0:50:50.000 --> 0:50:52.759 bit here. I'm gonna go with Kyle Schwarber. Now, is 0:50:53.040 --> 0:50:54.480 going to be a Cincinnati Red? 0:50:54.760 --> 0:50:55.279 Really? Yeah? 0:50:55.280 --> 0:50:58.319 According I mean Mike Dwines, the governor. Dewinesah, yeah, good 0:50:58.320 --> 0:50:59.919 as glad. As long as he said something. 0:51:00.360 --> 0:51:02.560 I know he's laying on everyone saying, yeah, it's probably 0:51:02.560 --> 0:51:04.720 pretty a bunch of dune deal. Is he going to 0:51:04.800 --> 0:51:08.120 create some room in the budget? Is he like going 0:51:08.160 --> 0:51:09.759 to give a a loan? 0:51:11.040 --> 0:51:11.560 Would yeah? 0:51:11.640 --> 0:51:14.279 Schwarber would get like, I think, like two thirds of 0:51:14.320 --> 0:51:17.319 their current payroll. Yeah, the Reds have roughly twenty to 0:51:17.400 --> 0:51:20.480 twenty five million dollars in space Kyles Werber won't get 0:51:20.520 --> 0:51:21.320 anything less. 0:51:21.160 --> 0:51:23.000 Than thirty million per year. Incredible. 0:51:23.320 --> 0:51:26.120 So if he can play like six positions, that'd be great. 0:51:26.920 --> 0:51:29.840 If he and pitch a little bit, that'd be ideal. 0:51:30.640 --> 0:51:32.959 I mean, I I listen seriously, I would love nothing 0:51:33.000 --> 0:51:35.759 more than I mean. And people I've talked to you 0:51:35.800 --> 0:51:38.399 that know him a little bit say, first team, all 0:51:38.440 --> 0:51:43.560 good guy, incredible locker room dude, great teammate, brings all 0:51:43.560 --> 0:51:44.240 the good vibes. 0:51:44.360 --> 0:51:46.160 Everywhere he's ever went, they've won. 0:51:46.520 --> 0:51:49.080 I think back to twenty sixteen with the Chicago Cubs, 0:51:49.400 --> 0:51:52.160 his time in Philadelphia. He was good with Washington. So 0:51:53.600 --> 0:51:57.000 it makes a lot of sense. I just financially it doesn't. Yeah, 0:51:57.080 --> 0:51:57.920 I wish that it did? 0:51:58.040 --> 0:51:58.440 You wish it? 0:51:58.520 --> 0:51:58.719 Yeah? 0:51:58.800 --> 0:52:00.320 You want to and say, wow, I think out a 0:52:00.360 --> 0:52:01.839 sign Okay, great where they're gonna get the money. 0:52:01.880 --> 0:52:03.960 I also want to say this, the Reds could sign 0:52:04.080 --> 0:52:06.960 him if they wanted to. They choose not to spend 0:52:06.960 --> 0:52:08.279 that type of money. That's a lot of money, and 0:52:08.280 --> 0:52:10.000 they want you to feel like they don't have any 0:52:10.080 --> 0:52:12.040 and this is the only way they can compete. It's 0:52:12.040 --> 0:52:14.680 not true. This is how they decide to try to 0:52:14.680 --> 0:52:16.239 build a team. The wine's looking to see if there's 0:52:16.239 --> 0:52:18.600 any of that gambling revenue left from Seriously, let's get 0:52:18.680 --> 0:52:21.160 some of that, or yeah, just to get player. See 0:52:21.200 --> 0:52:23.560 if you can get some money from Luis Ortiz and 0:52:23.640 --> 0:52:27.040 Emmanuel Cosse kind of COVID money. 0:52:25.920 --> 0:52:30.160 About that COVID money left about that? There's something there 0:52:30.160 --> 0:52:31.279 I don't know. Can't get him. 0:52:31.320 --> 0:52:34.400 Maybe his brother. I heard Carl Schwarber is available. I 0:52:34.440 --> 0:52:37.200 bet Carl would not cost you thirty million dollars only working. 0:52:37.200 --> 0:52:39.960 I think he's working at Gason Go in Middletown. 0:52:40.080 --> 0:52:43.239 So they. 0:52:45.560 --> 0:52:49.640 Say Carl Carl Schwarber is going to be starting today. 0:52:50.560 --> 0:52:52.320 Gason Go is gonna be the name of the bullpen 0:52:52.440 --> 0:52:57.880 this year. The other thing too, before we get the football, 0:52:57.920 --> 0:53:00.560 that would be soccer. This is causing way to stir 0:53:00.760 --> 0:53:03.239 in MLS circles. Of course, you know, since the week off. 0:53:03.280 --> 0:53:05.759 Next week they go in to play Lonel Messi and 0:53:05.800 --> 0:53:08.759 Miami and the PLAYFF nextro on the playoffs. Fantastic game 0:53:09.400 --> 0:53:12.800 on Saturday, that was awesome to watch them beat uh Columbus. 0:53:12.800 --> 0:53:16.080 By the way, Columbus's coach said that they the mL 0:53:16.120 --> 0:53:18.000 says it run, they should go to aggregate scoring. To 0:53:18.120 --> 0:53:20.239 hear this, Gosh, I did hear this? Yeah, Dave, you 0:53:20.280 --> 0:53:21.680 got that. I'd play that audio real quick. 0:53:22.440 --> 0:53:27.840 We're done, Cincinatti, no point with that, But issue do 0:53:28.040 --> 0:53:32.000 a bit of mathematics. How many go to that Wesco. 0:53:33.239 --> 0:53:33.799 Cincinnati? 0:53:33.920 --> 0:53:42.080 Yeah, on the three games, how many goes five courts 0:53:42.880 --> 0:53:46.920 and how many go to the disco? Okay, so we won't. 0:53:47.239 --> 0:53:51.439 We won't. So we won't five three and we're out? 0:53:54.800 --> 0:53:57.080 Is that of the Fred Jackson or the factors from Columbus. 0:53:57.080 --> 0:53:59.360 He's doing Buckeye math. When they lose to the we 0:53:59.480 --> 0:54:01.120 those that miss again, it's like, well. 0:54:00.960 --> 0:54:07.959 You know, yeah, Wilfried Nancy, the gaffer for the Columbus crew. Now, 0:54:08.200 --> 0:54:11.840 aggregate scoring is used in some tournaments across the world, 0:54:11.960 --> 0:54:14.520 in some leagues and in their postseason, and I get it. 0:54:14.520 --> 0:54:18.440 It's not something abnormal to soccer. But it's not like 0:54:18.480 --> 0:54:22.200 they told Wilfrid Nancy after the three games. Hey, by 0:54:22.239 --> 0:54:25.760 the way, aggregate scoring is not counted here. She knew 0:54:25.880 --> 0:54:28.359 going into it that you have to win two out 0:54:28.360 --> 0:54:31.320 of three games. They lost two out of three games. 0:54:32.120 --> 0:54:35.920 I was listening actually to Columbus Sports radio this morning, 0:54:36.120 --> 0:54:40.120 and even those guys were making fun of him, like Stair, listen. 0:54:39.800 --> 0:54:42.040 Come on, man, you lost, Come on, just you lost. 0:54:43.239 --> 0:54:45.839 They keep the score on dog, Yeah, what's up? They 0:54:45.880 --> 0:54:48.440 do that with baseballs. Yeah, that works. It's just stupid. 0:54:49.160 --> 0:54:50.920 By the way, they're gonna change these schedules, I guess 0:54:50.960 --> 0:54:53.400 in twenty twenty seven. It's good. They're gonna align with 0:54:53.719 --> 0:54:55.919 Premier League basically is what they're doing. It makes sense 0:54:56.000 --> 0:54:58.040 because the transfer windows. I mean, how many guys you 0:54:58.080 --> 0:55:00.920 lose to international all that stuff. We'll cut down on that, right, 0:55:01.120 --> 0:55:01.719 yeah a little bit. 0:55:01.760 --> 0:55:03.560 I mean how many times have you and I sat 0:55:03.560 --> 0:55:06.680 in here and talked about how the schedule is discombobulated 0:55:06.719 --> 0:55:09.720 or different tournaments or showcases or whatever that are happening 0:55:09.800 --> 0:55:12.000 and it kind of interferes with the MLS schedule. Well, 0:55:12.000 --> 0:55:15.520 this is meant to get everyone a little bit more aligned, 0:55:16.000 --> 0:55:18.440 especially when it comes to players coming and going from 0:55:18.480 --> 0:55:22.080 the European leagues. Kind of keeps everybody a lining. So 0:55:22.120 --> 0:55:25.800 the season will start in July, it will go through May. 0:55:26.040 --> 0:55:28.920 There will be a two month break in January and February, 0:55:29.440 --> 0:55:32.279 and then you know the season will continue basically, so 0:55:33.880 --> 0:55:36.480 basically aligns with the European thing. But a lot of 0:55:36.520 --> 0:55:40.120 people are freaking out. Laurel Faylor reported earlier today that 0:55:40.239 --> 0:55:43.080 FC Cincinnati was in favor of this change, which I 0:55:43.120 --> 0:55:47.200 think is noteworthy. And the other thing is ninety one 0:55:47.360 --> 0:55:52.360 percent of the games remain unchanged. Yeah, so you're changing 0:55:52.440 --> 0:55:55.040 basically nine percent of the schedule. I don't know that 0:55:55.040 --> 0:55:56.239 it's going to be as big of a deal as 0:55:56.280 --> 0:56:00.520 some of the people that are disagreeing with this might think. 0:56:00.640 --> 0:56:04.480 Yeah, well I don't It makes sense to me, man, Yeah, 0:56:04.800 --> 0:56:06.680 you guys in the lineup. That's what people want to see, 0:56:06.680 --> 0:56:07.600 you guys as the lineup. 0:56:07.640 --> 0:56:10.439 And especially with f C Cincinnati, they love to dip 0:56:10.480 --> 0:56:13.680 into the European playerpool and bring those guys over. This 0:56:13.760 --> 0:56:16.200 gives them an advantage in doing so. All right, would 0:56:16.200 --> 0:56:19.160 you rather talk about the Jonahs Brothers movie or Cincinnati Pittsburgh. 0:56:19.160 --> 0:56:20.520 I was at the gym this morning. 0:56:20.680 --> 0:56:23.600 I look up and I see the Jonas Brothers serenading 0:56:23.640 --> 0:56:27.279 me with Christmas carols, and I thought, dear God, what 0:56:27.520 --> 0:56:32.719 year is it. I was in the seventh grade when 0:56:32.719 --> 0:56:38.200 the Jonas Brothers exploded onto the scene. I'm thirty years old. Yes, yeah, 0:56:38.840 --> 0:56:42.359 they obviously took a hiatus and came back. Right, do 0:56:42.400 --> 0:56:44.000 we need a Jonas Brothers chriss. 0:56:43.920 --> 0:56:47.080 Women of your like? Who is the core constituency for 0:56:47.120 --> 0:56:51.600 the Jonas Brothers? It is young women. I guess we 0:56:51.640 --> 0:56:53.640 all will talk about the who wants it less? I 0:56:53.640 --> 0:56:55.920 guess is the question here because it used to be 0:56:55.920 --> 0:56:57.640 a man. The Bengals are terrible, right, and the defense 0:56:57.719 --> 0:57:00.160 is awful, offense is good. Pittsburgh is just not a 0:57:00.200 --> 0:57:02.600 good football team. Not a good football team. Shirt it 0:57:02.640 --> 0:57:06.960 don't look like it. And just start with Aaron Rodgers. 0:57:06.960 --> 0:57:09.680 I mean, his skills are declining as the season goes on. 0:57:09.760 --> 0:57:11.360 Is that more of age or other factors? 0:57:12.160 --> 0:57:14.319 That's a good question. I don't think he has full 0:57:14.400 --> 0:57:16.840 trust in the offense. I don't think he has full 0:57:16.880 --> 0:57:21.120 trust in his offensive line. And outside of DK Metcalf, 0:57:21.160 --> 0:57:24.240 they don't have a lot of receiving threats. And because 0:57:24.280 --> 0:57:27.040 of the offensive line shortcomings, they haven't been as effective 0:57:27.120 --> 0:57:31.720 running the ball, and so it's a very discombobulated herky 0:57:31.840 --> 0:57:35.720 jerky offense. I mean Rodgers has only thrown for over 0:57:35.800 --> 0:57:38.840 two hundred and fifty yards in a game once this year, 0:57:39.320 --> 0:57:41.360 and it was against the Bengals in Week seven in 0:57:41.360 --> 0:57:43.200 that Thursday night game. And if you remember, a good 0:57:43.240 --> 0:57:46.680 chunk of those came on one play to Pat Fryermoth. Yeah, 0:57:46.720 --> 0:57:48.920 he doesn't move quite as well as he used to. 0:57:49.120 --> 0:57:51.960 He can still be an effective passer, a good passer. 0:57:52.360 --> 0:57:55.120 But the offense as a whole is discombobulated. They maybe 0:57:55.120 --> 0:57:58.280 aren't getting the same amount of production that you would 0:57:58.280 --> 0:57:59.400 typically see out of TJ. 0:57:59.560 --> 0:57:59.880 Watt. 0:58:00.160 --> 0:58:02.880 Their defensive secondary has been a train wreck and they're 0:58:02.920 --> 0:58:05.400 just moving guys all over the place trying to figure 0:58:05.400 --> 0:58:05.760 it out. 0:58:06.160 --> 0:58:07.440 So as a whole, it's. 0:58:07.280 --> 0:58:11.120 Just been this up and down, clunky season for Pittsburgh. 0:58:11.160 --> 0:58:13.880 And they had a couple of chances to, you know, 0:58:13.960 --> 0:58:17.400 take advantage and maybe keep the distance between them and Baltimore, 0:58:17.440 --> 0:58:18.800 and now it's down to one game. 0:58:18.840 --> 0:58:21.080 Well even metcalf and say he's only had ten catches 0:58:21.120 --> 0:58:24.080 for less than one hundred years and the last three games. Yeah, yeah, 0:58:24.120 --> 0:58:25.840 I mean that's what I'm saying. Like their offense is 0:58:25.880 --> 0:58:28.000 just run game. Running game is not good. 0:58:28.080 --> 0:58:30.000 Yeah, I mean, if you watch them Sunday night, against 0:58:30.000 --> 0:58:33.680 the Chargers. You think that's not a playoff team, and 0:58:33.720 --> 0:58:38.000 it's it's just inconsistencies at multiple positions and not enough depth. 0:58:38.200 --> 0:58:42.080 Yeah, Rogers a TD two picks in that game and 0:58:42.200 --> 0:58:44.480 just score ten points again against the Chargers. I mean, 0:58:44.560 --> 0:58:47.400 Churn's pretty good team. But man, you know you're talking 0:58:47.400 --> 0:58:49.480 about trying to win the AFC North. That's not going 0:58:49.560 --> 0:58:51.440 to get it done. But on the other side of 0:58:51.440 --> 0:58:52.840 the ball, I look at this going, Okay, well, the 0:58:52.840 --> 0:58:55.320 Bengals come in and now, last time they played the 0:58:55.360 --> 0:58:58.760 Steelers four weeks ago, they got a couple of pressures 0:58:58.760 --> 0:59:01.320 on him, they didn't sacks, And now you don't have 0:59:01.360 --> 0:59:04.320 hendrickson it. It looks like they're not gonna have Shamar Stewart. Yeah. 0:59:04.600 --> 0:59:06.800 I think the name that you're gonna hear a lot 0:59:06.840 --> 0:59:10.720 from this week as a potential game changer, and that 0:59:10.800 --> 0:59:13.040 might be a little too heavy. But a guy that 0:59:13.080 --> 0:59:16.560 could actually maybe get some pressures is Cedric Johnson. Now, 0:59:16.600 --> 0:59:19.000 he played in his first game against the Bears after 0:59:19.080 --> 0:59:21.520 being hurt in training camp. He was a late round 0:59:21.600 --> 0:59:24.160 pick of the Bengals a year ago, really finished the 0:59:24.200 --> 0:59:27.960 season strong in being able to pressure the quarterback. Last 0:59:28.040 --> 0:59:30.000 year the Bengals are high on him. He had a 0:59:30.040 --> 0:59:32.760 great offseason. He obviously got hurt prior to the season, 0:59:33.200 --> 0:59:36.240 and so he's gonna have an opportunity to be a 0:59:36.240 --> 0:59:38.880 part of that rotation with Miles Murphy and Joseph Osai 0:59:39.400 --> 0:59:41.280 and see if he can get after just be more 0:59:41.360 --> 0:59:45.440 productive than those other guys have. Now it's you have 0:59:45.480 --> 0:59:48.160 no faith in the other guys. They've done nothing. Miles 0:59:48.280 --> 0:59:50.800 Murphy has done nothing, nothing, Joseph Osai this year has 0:59:50.800 --> 0:59:53.280 done nothing, and they didn't do anything the last time. 0:59:53.360 --> 0:59:56.160 So I don't know exactly if I expect anything to change. 0:59:56.800 --> 0:59:58.640 But Cedric Johnson, you would think is going to be 0:59:58.800 --> 0:59:59.880 a part of the solution. 1:00:00.040 --> 1:00:02.040 I would hope. Well, I don't know. Can you also 1:00:02.080 --> 1:00:04.120 depend on your defense to get the takeaways they had 1:00:04.120 --> 1:00:07.600 and that last time they matched up? I am I 1:00:07.600 --> 1:00:10.120 don't see a trend there. Let's put that way. Yeah, no, 1:00:10.240 --> 1:00:10.959 I think that's fair. 1:00:11.000 --> 1:00:13.920 I mean, when the Bengals take the ball away on defense, 1:00:13.960 --> 1:00:16.600 they tend to win, and they just haven't done that 1:00:16.760 --> 1:00:20.440 enough team. Now, the one ball that Rogers threw in 1:00:20.440 --> 1:00:22.560 that first game was just a terrible throw, and the 1:00:22.560 --> 1:00:27.320 Bengals did and then there was one really great play 1:00:28.200 --> 1:00:31.400 by DJ Turner on the sideline. They're gonna need DJ 1:00:31.560 --> 1:00:34.800 Turner to step up big. Why, Well, we talked about it. 1:00:34.840 --> 1:00:37.360 There's not really other options outside of DK Metcalf for 1:00:37.400 --> 1:00:40.920 their offense, and so shut him down. DJ Turner is 1:00:40.920 --> 1:00:44.000 going to be the guy assigned with DK Metcalf. Can 1:00:44.120 --> 1:00:46.840 he get some of those takeaways or shut him down. 1:00:46.880 --> 1:00:49.600 The other thing is Pittsburgh's offense has shifted a little 1:00:49.600 --> 1:00:52.120 bit to using three tight ends, I think at the 1:00:52.160 --> 1:00:55.080 second highest rate in the NFL, behind the Los Angeles Rams. 1:00:55.440 --> 1:00:57.480 They're also going to try to get those tight ends 1:00:57.560 --> 1:00:59.960 involved in the offense. Pat Freyermouth had a big touchdown 1:01:00.120 --> 1:01:03.720 last time. Darnell Washington, who is just a mammoth human being. 1:01:04.120 --> 1:01:06.040 He's been involved in the past game a little bit 1:01:06.040 --> 1:01:08.360 more so I would expect Pittsburgh to try to use 1:01:08.360 --> 1:01:08.680 those guys. 1:01:08.720 --> 1:01:11.480 Now came a fading. You know, it makes sense. Three wideouts. 1:01:11.480 --> 1:01:13.000 We're going to try to create the space, make them 1:01:13.000 --> 1:01:15.920 a receiver, basically see that all the time in the NFL. 1:01:16.320 --> 1:01:19.919 Other side of the game itself, I think Jamar Chase 1:01:20.000 --> 1:01:21.760 is I don't see him putting up the numbers he 1:01:21.760 --> 1:01:23.760 put up last time. That was just all world. But 1:01:24.560 --> 1:01:26.680 I think he's a bigger fact for the Bengals and 1:01:26.760 --> 1:01:28.760 metcalf is for the Steelers without a doubt. 1:01:28.800 --> 1:01:31.000 I mean, he's the entire offense twenty three targets the 1:01:31.040 --> 1:01:33.200 last time these two teams met. Over the last five 1:01:33.240 --> 1:01:36.520 games against Pittsburgh, Jamar has really torched them. Now, the 1:01:36.560 --> 1:01:39.720 Bengals have won two straight games against Pittsburgh and Jamar 1:01:39.760 --> 1:01:41.440 has been a big part of that. I don't know 1:01:41.480 --> 1:01:44.040 that that's going to change. What's interesting about it is 1:01:44.040 --> 1:01:46.880 how does Pittsburgh decide to defend him? Last time, they 1:01:46.920 --> 1:01:49.000 basically stuck to their guns and went man to man 1:01:49.040 --> 1:01:51.680 against Jamar, Chase and t Higgins. How'd that work out 1:01:51.720 --> 1:01:54.720 for you? Yeah, Jamar had sixteen catches, his own franchise 1:01:54.760 --> 1:01:57.680 broke his own franchise record. Te also had nine catches 1:01:57.720 --> 1:02:00.200 in that game for a big, big play. So well, 1:02:00.800 --> 1:02:03.880 I'm curious to see are they, based off the struggles 1:02:03.880 --> 1:02:05.800 that they've had and the injuries that they've had in 1:02:05.840 --> 1:02:08.000 the secondary, are they going to commit to playing a 1:02:08.000 --> 1:02:09.960 man to man against those guys again? Or are they 1:02:10.040 --> 1:02:12.280 going to sit back and zone and make Joe Flacco 1:02:12.400 --> 1:02:16.200 beat them death? By a thousand cuts that I'm most 1:02:16.200 --> 1:02:19.040 interested to see. I can't imagine after they got torched 1:02:19.040 --> 1:02:20.440 the way they did last time, that they're going to 1:02:20.520 --> 1:02:22.720 go man to man with that type of frequency. Now 1:02:22.760 --> 1:02:24.360 that's who they are, though they're one of the highest 1:02:24.360 --> 1:02:27.720 Manda man teams in the NFL. Is Pittsburgh, but second 1:02:27.760 --> 1:02:30.160 time around against an opponent, maybe they'll change. What about 1:02:30.160 --> 1:02:33.400 Bengals run game has to be better than it was 1:02:33.600 --> 1:02:36.680 against Chicago the last time they played Pittsburgh, though that 1:02:36.760 --> 1:02:39.080 was the emergence of the run game. Chase Brown finally 1:02:39.120 --> 1:02:42.040 started to look like himself with those pass rushers on 1:02:42.080 --> 1:02:44.720 the outside, with Watt, with high Smith, with her big 1:02:45.080 --> 1:02:47.520 with the propensity to blitz in that man coverags the 1:02:47.560 --> 1:02:51.360 Pittsburgh does. That creates opportunities in the run game for 1:02:51.400 --> 1:02:53.920 you to get Chase Brown involved. The Bengals have to 1:02:53.960 --> 1:02:57.600 do it consistently to get Pittsburgh into those situations where 1:02:57.600 --> 1:02:59.200 they crowd the box and then all of a sudden 1:02:59.520 --> 1:03:00.560 still have and jamar on. 1:03:00.560 --> 1:03:03.200 The opposse on real quick? One did Pittsburgh defenses have to do? 1:03:03.240 --> 1:03:04.480 What looks are they going to give the Bengals We 1:03:04.480 --> 1:03:05.439 didn't see four weeks ago. 1:03:05.600 --> 1:03:07.520 I think there'll be a more zone, a lot more 1:03:07.600 --> 1:03:11.280 zone coverage than what we saw last time, and try 1:03:11.280 --> 1:03:13.160 to force Flacco to hold the ball a little bit 1:03:13.200 --> 1:03:15.240 and get that pass rush there, because if you remember, 1:03:15.560 --> 1:03:17.840 I think they only got to him twice maybe in 1:03:17.880 --> 1:03:20.520 that game the first time around, and Flacco likes to 1:03:20.520 --> 1:03:23.040 get the ball out quick. So it was interesting. Flacco 1:03:23.160 --> 1:03:25.720 said this week that he's seen some coverages in recent 1:03:25.720 --> 1:03:27.400 weeks that he hasn't seen in eighteen years in the 1:03:27.520 --> 1:03:31.040 NFL because of the way teams are doubling t Higgins 1:03:31.080 --> 1:03:34.080 and Jamar Chase at the same time. So if Pittsburgh 1:03:34.080 --> 1:03:36.680 decides to do that, you need a third player on 1:03:36.720 --> 1:03:40.120 the field that can win. It's been no a little bit. 1:03:40.200 --> 1:03:42.000 No fan has won some of these last time. Andre 1:03:42.120 --> 1:03:45.680 Yoshavas not as consistent as we'd like. Does Chase Brown 1:03:45.840 --> 1:03:48.600 get motioned out or split out in that and get 1:03:48.600 --> 1:03:50.960 matched up with a linebacker And if so, I'll take. 1:03:50.760 --> 1:03:53.840 That match up all right. Austin Elmore, ESPN fifteen thirty 1:03:53.880 --> 1:03:55.800 at noon today with Tony Pike what he got. 1:03:55.880 --> 1:03:58.320 Yeah, we're only going till two thirty today. Everything's moved 1:03:58.440 --> 1:04:01.280 up on fifteen thirty this afternoon, but we'll talk to 1:04:01.360 --> 1:04:03.800 Charlie Goldsmith. He just got back from Las Vegas for 1:04:03.840 --> 1:04:07.120 the MLBGM meetings. We'll see what he's hearing about the 1:04:07.120 --> 1:04:09.640 Reds and they're playing for the off season. Also talk 1:04:09.680 --> 1:04:12.520 a lot about this Bengals Steelers matchup, and a whole 1:04:12.520 --> 1:04:16.840 lot we make our Friday picks as well, which is important. 1:04:17.480 --> 1:04:19.960 And I'm sure Charlie have more on the Red signing. 1:04:20.040 --> 1:04:25.080 Carl Schwarz Earl Schwarber. Carl Schwarber signed in the Middletown, Indiana. Uh, 1:04:25.240 --> 1:04:27.640 I appreciate it. Austin, thanks again, Thank you, home of 1:04:27.680 --> 1:04:29.800 the best Bengals coverage. Seven hundred w OLW. 1:04:30.120 --> 1:04:31.680 Do you want to be an American? 1:04:32.960 --> 1:04:35.240 He's got sloan on this Friday morning on seven hundred 1:04:35.280 --> 1:04:37.280 w old W. It is this season. I'm about ready. 1:04:37.320 --> 1:04:38.720 I just want to put you And maybe it's just 1:04:38.800 --> 1:04:41.560 all the angst and drahmena adgive in life. Love the 1:04:41.600 --> 1:04:44.040 holidays because you can just unplug. So if part of 1:04:44.040 --> 1:04:46.360 the celebration for you is planning on going downtown for 1:04:46.360 --> 1:04:48.560 the holidays, be it the tree lighting or to see 1:04:48.560 --> 1:04:50.560 the elves, or maybe to skate. There's been a lot 1:04:50.600 --> 1:04:53.520 of movement, a lot of additions and big changes for 1:04:53.600 --> 1:04:56.000 the holidays, especially in the Fountain District this year. On 1:04:56.040 --> 1:04:59.560 that from three CDC is Christy Samad Christy, good morning. 1:04:59.600 --> 1:04:59.920 How are you? 1:05:00.760 --> 1:05:01.720 Good morning? How are you? 1:05:01.920 --> 1:05:03.960 I'm great, fine, I'm fine. I'm ready for some holiday action. 1:05:04.080 --> 1:05:06.880 I don't know. Generally, when I see the ads for 1:05:06.960 --> 1:05:09.200 Christmas right around the fourth of July, I'm like, it's 1:05:09.240 --> 1:05:12.240 a little early, but this year, bring it on. I'm ready. 1:05:12.240 --> 1:05:12.920 I'm here for it. 1:05:14.120 --> 1:05:15.840 I totally agree. And I feel like with the snow 1:05:15.920 --> 1:05:18.240 flurry on Monday just got me even more right. 1:05:18.240 --> 1:05:21.040 Right, I'm ready. I'm in the spirit. So the thing 1:05:21.080 --> 1:05:23.520 is that typically people go downtown and you have your habits. 1:05:24.240 --> 1:05:25.720 You know, maybe you go see the trains at the 1:05:25.880 --> 1:05:28.440 Museum Center, go see the Shillott elves, whatever it is. 1:05:28.680 --> 1:05:30.480 There's a lot of moving parts right now. So if 1:05:30.520 --> 1:05:32.360 you show up and go, hey, what happened to fill 1:05:32.400 --> 1:05:35.360 in the blank, it may not be where you thought 1:05:35.360 --> 1:05:37.360 it was. The beginning is first of all, before we 1:05:37.400 --> 1:05:39.960 get into the changes, and these are some big ones here, 1:05:40.800 --> 1:05:43.040 what was the decision to kind of reimagine this whole thing? 1:05:44.400 --> 1:05:46.960 Yeah, well, so the ice rink has have been awesome 1:05:46.960 --> 1:05:49.959 at Fountain Square for you know, the last twenty years 1:05:50.080 --> 1:05:53.160 or so, but we kept you know, building onto it 1:05:53.240 --> 1:05:56.000 and trying to make the patron experience better. But we 1:05:56.080 --> 1:05:58.120 ran out of room. We were kind of landlocked at 1:05:58.120 --> 1:06:01.720 Mountain Square. And so in the renovation of the Convention 1:06:01.800 --> 1:06:04.520 Center came on and we were looking at Elm Street 1:06:04.560 --> 1:06:10.800 Plaza right outside. It only made sense to make that area, 1:06:11.280 --> 1:06:13.440 you know, bring in the ice drink. And so we 1:06:13.440 --> 1:06:16.080 were able to from scratch kind of imagine where the 1:06:16.120 --> 1:06:18.760 ice drink would go, what is the patron experience, and 1:06:18.760 --> 1:06:21.360 we were able to expand and so as we're really 1:06:21.400 --> 1:06:23.800 in the Fountain district and how we you know, expand 1:06:23.840 --> 1:06:28.040 the winter festivities in downtown within this district, it just 1:06:28.040 --> 1:06:30.320 made sense where we can do something new on Fountain Square. 1:06:30.720 --> 1:06:32.760 We could put the a new, brand new ice drink 1:06:32.800 --> 1:06:35.760 at Elm Street Plaza and really think of it in 1:06:35.800 --> 1:06:36.160 that way. 1:06:36.320 --> 1:06:37.840 So will the rink be bigger or is it the 1:06:37.840 --> 1:06:38.320 same rink? 1:06:39.400 --> 1:06:42.120 It is bigger, it's a brand new ice drink. It's 1:06:42.120 --> 1:06:43.600 about a thousand square feed bigger. 1:06:44.320 --> 1:06:46.640 Nice and I like I used, I mean, it's it's 1:06:46.680 --> 1:06:48.280 not that far. It's just like a couple of blocks, 1:06:48.320 --> 1:06:51.160 so it spreads people out too that you can go 1:06:51.200 --> 1:06:53.000 to different and see different things along the way, like 1:06:53.040 --> 1:06:54.640 and that's good for business too. 1:06:55.280 --> 1:06:57.920 It's awesome. So it's a it's only a block and 1:06:57.960 --> 1:07:00.000 a half, so you you're more than welcome to still 1:07:00.120 --> 1:07:03.960 park at Sountain Square. Come up and we're debuting the 1:07:04.000 --> 1:07:08.040 Winter House this Saturday, which is a sixty five by 1:07:08.080 --> 1:07:11.480 sixty five tent with a bar. It's got normal operating 1:07:11.480 --> 1:07:14.720 hours Monday through Sunday, eleven to eight, and we'll have 1:07:14.760 --> 1:07:17.000 programming just like we do during the summer. And the 1:07:17.040 --> 1:07:19.560 thought that's behind that was, you know, if you're not 1:07:19.640 --> 1:07:24.080 a skater and it's cold, you're probably not finding yourself 1:07:24.080 --> 1:07:26.480 Atountain Square in the winter months. And so we wanted 1:07:26.480 --> 1:07:30.360 to kind of think of something where during the summer 1:07:30.640 --> 1:07:33.280 everyone uses it for lunch breaks, for meetings, you know, 1:07:33.360 --> 1:07:35.760 to see programming. And so really we were thinking how 1:07:35.800 --> 1:07:38.240 to carry that on during the winter. And so this 1:07:38.400 --> 1:07:41.640 is that it's a large warming tent where you can 1:07:41.680 --> 1:07:46.640 still enjoy programming, congregate with friends, you know, take meetings 1:07:46.640 --> 1:07:48.920 in there, eat your lunch, et cetera. And so that 1:07:49.040 --> 1:07:53.080 being on Sountain Square and new this year. Back prior 1:07:53.120 --> 1:07:56.520 to the renovation, like in the eighties and earlier than that, 1:07:56.880 --> 1:07:59.000 the city used to put lights on the fountain, so 1:07:59.000 --> 1:08:01.520 when they turn the water off, they would replace it 1:08:01.520 --> 1:08:03.360 with lights to you know, make it look like the 1:08:03.360 --> 1:08:06.880 fountain was still flowing with water. And in the past 1:08:06.960 --> 1:08:08.640 years that went away and so we're bringing it back 1:08:08.720 --> 1:08:13.479 this year with animated lights. So it'll be beautiful something 1:08:13.520 --> 1:08:18.120 to compliment. While you're in the tent just enjoying a cocktail, 1:08:18.160 --> 1:08:21.519 you can watch the fountain glow. And so that will 1:08:21.560 --> 1:08:22.519 be a fountain square. 1:08:22.560 --> 1:08:24.600 Big how big of how big it? Let's let's do 1:08:24.640 --> 1:08:26.920 the winterhouse town. How big a ten is it? 1:08:26.920 --> 1:08:30.080 It's a sixty five by sixty five so it'll fit 1:08:30.120 --> 1:08:32.000 about two hundred three hundred people. 1:08:32.439 --> 1:08:34.040 And that sounds cool because you can sit in there 1:08:34.040 --> 1:08:36.479 and be warm and have a cocktail and you know, 1:08:36.720 --> 1:08:39.840 look at to watch the tree, watch people go by exactly. 1:08:40.000 --> 1:08:42.360 I feel like, for yeah, you know, if you weren't 1:08:42.360 --> 1:08:44.400 ice eating, you weren't on the funtain fountain squared in 1:08:44.400 --> 1:08:48.000 the winter and so this hopefully will curve that. But 1:08:48.040 --> 1:08:50.280 then to your point, so the blocks and a half 1:08:50.479 --> 1:08:53.760 to Elm Street Plaza, while you're walking on sixth. The 1:08:53.840 --> 1:08:57.200 Chiloto Elves are going in some storefronts at the Crew Tower, 1:08:57.920 --> 1:09:00.200 and so those are the beloved Elves that every one 1:09:00.400 --> 1:09:03.360 you know Svin spliced apart over the years, i think, 1:09:03.439 --> 1:09:06.080 since they're originally at Chilto. But we've got a few 1:09:06.120 --> 1:09:09.240 scenes that you can check out on Fifth and then 1:09:09.360 --> 1:09:11.559 to your point, not to mention all of the new businesses, 1:09:12.080 --> 1:09:14.120 the businesses that have been opened, but there's a lot 1:09:14.120 --> 1:09:17.479 of new businesses opening on Fifth Street, and so Prim 1:09:17.600 --> 1:09:19.559 is a new bar that just opens in the Foundry. 1:09:20.240 --> 1:09:23.280 We've got Salazar that used to be an OTR relocated 1:09:23.400 --> 1:09:26.200 down to the old Sax building and that's opening next week. 1:09:26.840 --> 1:09:30.559 There's another entertainment concept called Flight Club that is going 1:09:30.880 --> 1:09:33.640 right next door, and it's a dart bar, and that 1:09:33.720 --> 1:09:36.240 will be on the other edge of the street. And 1:09:36.280 --> 1:09:39.599 then at that point you'll be right at Elm Street Plasm. 1:09:40.320 --> 1:09:43.679 But between we still have Jeff Ruby's Davidson, We've got 1:09:43.960 --> 1:09:48.479 Vintage on a race, meet Marigold. It's just gonna be 1:09:48.600 --> 1:09:50.759 this amazing district. 1:09:51.000 --> 1:09:53.920 I'm gonna guess Christy that moving the shallow Elves to 1:09:54.080 --> 1:09:57.519 to in Main Street there at Kurru Tower. That that 1:09:57.640 --> 1:09:59.559 to me, that that's a that's a winner. 1:10:00.560 --> 1:10:03.120 It is it is well talk about the history and 1:10:03.320 --> 1:10:05.639 the old memories. I mean, we're bringing them back closer 1:10:05.680 --> 1:10:08.840 to where they were, you know. And so it's and 1:10:08.840 --> 1:10:11.519 it's just sitting all of these festivities in one space 1:10:11.560 --> 1:10:13.240 and so in one spot. 1:10:13.800 --> 1:10:16.200 Yeah, and the little kids like it to you're older, 1:10:16.240 --> 1:10:18.200 you see way go see Shiloh hols. But those things 1:10:18.200 --> 1:10:20.760 are lame. They saw that's not Ai, that's that's not 1:10:21.320 --> 1:10:22.840 And then when when you get to be a parent, 1:10:22.880 --> 1:10:24.879 you bring your kids here because you have fond memories 1:10:24.920 --> 1:10:26.920 of of the thing. Yeah, that's the way it ors. 1:10:26.920 --> 1:10:27.360 It's awesome. 1:10:27.600 --> 1:10:28.920 This is what we used to do. This is what 1:10:29.400 --> 1:10:32.280 things used to look like. You know, I'm a little 1:10:32.320 --> 1:10:34.120 I can they're a little creepy. They're great to see. 1:10:34.160 --> 1:10:34.640 I love them. 1:10:34.680 --> 1:10:36.840 I go every year, but they are a little well 1:10:37.320 --> 1:10:39.360 but if you look at that stuff from I don't know, 1:10:39.479 --> 1:10:42.920 a couple of generations ago, like Halloween masks and Santa 1:10:42.960 --> 1:10:45.519 clauses are super creepy. Back then, if you look at 1:10:45.520 --> 1:10:47.040 some of those black and whites from like the thirties 1:10:47.120 --> 1:10:47.840 or forties. 1:10:47.640 --> 1:10:50.840 Like that's scary af you're right, You're right. 1:10:51.400 --> 1:10:53.679 Yeah, it's more like Crampis than it is. Santa Claus 1:10:54.920 --> 1:10:57.839 Christy Samad, she is the EVP of Civic and Commercial 1:10:58.240 --> 1:11:01.840 Space Activation for three Seed and totally have blown up 1:11:01.920 --> 1:11:03.880 how the holidays are gonna look downtown this year, starting 1:11:03.920 --> 1:11:05.479 in the in the Fountain district. So if you're looking 1:11:05.520 --> 1:11:08.280 for the rank, it has moved. That is gonna be 1:11:08.320 --> 1:11:11.639 to Elm Street, so right adjacent to the Duke Energy 1:11:11.680 --> 1:11:15.439 Convention Center, and the ranks bigger and better. Specifically, when 1:11:15.479 --> 1:11:17.559 you when you look at the new rank, you said, 1:11:17.560 --> 1:11:20.599 it's a new new surface. What upgrades will you notice? 1:11:22.560 --> 1:11:25.840 So it's a larger and we will have iggloos, We'll 1:11:25.880 --> 1:11:28.559 have pergolas that have fire pits that you can rent 1:11:28.640 --> 1:11:30.799 individually so you can have you know, if your family's 1:11:30.840 --> 1:11:35.680 coming down, you can secure a private area to hang 1:11:35.760 --> 1:11:38.080 out and have all of your stuff. There's a pavilion 1:11:38.400 --> 1:11:41.360 that's actually going to be there year round, but it 1:11:41.439 --> 1:11:45.760 will be open with concessions, you know, have chocolate, na 1:11:46.439 --> 1:11:51.720 drink and so I think that downtown is needed, I 1:11:51.760 --> 1:11:53.840 mean Elm Street Plaza in general. Right, it's this new 1:11:53.920 --> 1:11:56.840 two and a half acre civic space we're putting two 1:11:56.960 --> 1:11:59.439 hundred and son odd trees in this space, so it's 1:11:59.720 --> 1:12:02.280 kind of breaking in this concrete jungle and giving it 1:12:02.479 --> 1:12:04.680 new life. And so the ice drink being right in 1:12:04.760 --> 1:12:08.320 the middle debuting the space is it's awesome because it's 1:12:08.320 --> 1:12:09.960 going to bring a ton of people to come down 1:12:10.040 --> 1:12:13.000 to see the newly renovated convention center that will be 1:12:13.439 --> 1:12:16.759 you know, that's opening the first events January sixteenth for Redstack. 1:12:18.680 --> 1:12:21.160 The mural that they did for Blink, the Trists and 1:12:21.200 --> 1:12:23.360 Eaton mural on the side building of eighty four to 1:12:23.400 --> 1:12:26.120 fifty one is the backdrop of the ice rink and 1:12:26.200 --> 1:12:30.360 it just really you know, it showcases everything that Cincinnati has. 1:12:30.560 --> 1:12:31.000 It's great. 1:12:31.120 --> 1:12:32.920 Yeah, it is cool. When does the rink open? 1:12:34.360 --> 1:12:37.960 November twenty So next Friday, we're doing the ribbon cutting 1:12:38.200 --> 1:12:42.160 of the Elm Street plaza. We're having the first and 1:12:42.240 --> 1:12:44.800 now mural skates on the rink and then it'll be 1:12:44.840 --> 1:12:46.000 free ice skating all day long. 1:12:46.200 --> 1:12:48.240 All right, who's going to be first you do the 1:12:48.320 --> 1:12:50.560 ribbon cutting, who's going to do the ceremony falling on 1:12:50.640 --> 1:12:50.920 their ass? 1:12:52.560 --> 1:12:55.400 So all We've got some really great construction guys that 1:12:55.439 --> 1:12:57.960 have been on the project. All the past eighteen months 1:12:58.000 --> 1:13:00.800 and they're gonna they're gonna debut ice. 1:13:00.880 --> 1:13:03.680 Yeah, wear your bucket, boys, it'll be all right, all right. 1:13:03.760 --> 1:13:05.519 So the new center piece of Found Square though, is 1:13:05.640 --> 1:13:08.360 the the Winterhouse. We talked about that there's daily programming there. 1:13:08.360 --> 1:13:10.519 Are you gonna have music in it too or around there, 1:13:10.640 --> 1:13:12.360 so when the when the rinks go on, you put 1:13:12.360 --> 1:13:13.240 the tent there instead. 1:13:13.280 --> 1:13:17.240 I'm guessing right, yeah, exactly. And there's a stage within 1:13:17.320 --> 1:13:21.920 the tent, and so we will have programming basically seven 1:13:22.000 --> 1:13:25.000 nights a week. You can find we're doing a collaboration 1:13:25.120 --> 1:13:30.240 with CCM to have some buzz performers. We're gonna we 1:13:30.400 --> 1:13:33.519 debuted at Washington Park this past summer at Uker Night 1:13:33.560 --> 1:13:36.799 where you can just come bring partners or just meet partners. 1:13:37.200 --> 1:13:39.880 We're gonna have ukre nights there. We're gonna have drag bingo, 1:13:40.160 --> 1:13:45.360 We'll have piano nights on Fridays, so it will have 1:13:45.479 --> 1:13:48.280 Vinyl nights on Thursdays where you can come and fish records. 1:13:49.200 --> 1:13:50.000 We've got a lot going on. 1:13:50.280 --> 1:13:52.439 Oh yeah. And the idea then also during the day though, 1:13:52.560 --> 1:13:54.400 is to get a lot of the workers downtown to 1:13:54.439 --> 1:13:55.599 come and maybe have lunch there. 1:13:56.320 --> 1:13:58.800 Yeah, it's really you know at that point, that third 1:13:58.880 --> 1:14:01.400 space so you can come and just pull up your 1:14:01.439 --> 1:14:04.080 laptop and gets more then. 1:14:04.320 --> 1:14:07.760 Yeah, I love that and you know you engage more people. 1:14:07.840 --> 1:14:10.040 That's that's awesome and we need that downtown for sure. 1:14:10.600 --> 1:14:12.759 Uh And even with the rink moving that, the fountain 1:14:12.800 --> 1:14:15.240 square is the fix you know this, let's face that, 1:14:15.240 --> 1:14:16.760 we're gonna put the Christmas tree there too and have 1:14:16.840 --> 1:14:18.760 the tree lighting and sandals zip lying down so the 1:14:18.840 --> 1:14:21.960 tree stays. Talk about the fountain lights. 1:14:23.560 --> 1:14:27.200 Yeah, so thanks to the TVG came in big time 1:14:27.320 --> 1:14:30.799 and they came to support putting the lights on the fountain. 1:14:31.400 --> 1:14:33.519 Like I mentioned, there's going to be a five minute 1:14:34.200 --> 1:14:38.519 animated show of these lights every fifteen minutes, and so 1:14:38.760 --> 1:14:40.519 it'll look like, you know, when you're just walking by 1:14:40.560 --> 1:14:43.880 there's nothing, it'll look like just a nice, pretty white 1:14:44.200 --> 1:14:47.200 and then every fifteen minutes it'll pop with different designs 1:14:47.200 --> 1:14:50.400 of players and just really add to the middle of 1:14:50.439 --> 1:14:50.840 the square. 1:14:51.400 --> 1:14:54.639 Almost it was like blank right, yeah exactly. 1:14:55.040 --> 1:14:56.840 I have a two and a four year old. We 1:14:56.920 --> 1:15:00.040 were down, you know, getting everything ready last night and 1:15:00.080 --> 1:15:02.360 they were just entranced by this fountain. They were steering 1:15:02.400 --> 1:15:03.519 at it like, what's going on? 1:15:03.800 --> 1:15:06.920 It was, Yeah, that is really cool. I understand. Also, 1:15:07.080 --> 1:15:08.560 you're going to have there's gonna be more light in 1:15:08.560 --> 1:15:09.200 along fIF Street. 1:15:10.600 --> 1:15:13.760 Yeah, so again just to deck the hall. We are 1:15:14.240 --> 1:15:17.120 making sure again and as a clear plaque. If you're 1:15:17.160 --> 1:15:20.840 not incredibly familiar with downtown and you're like, you forget that, 1:15:20.920 --> 1:15:23.160 it's the Elmstreet prop plaza. You park a fountain square, 1:15:23.200 --> 1:15:24.519 you're going to come up, You're going to see all 1:15:24.560 --> 1:15:27.040 these festivities and then you'll see like a lit plot 1:15:27.120 --> 1:15:29.160 path that will take it, you know, the block and 1:15:29.200 --> 1:15:32.640 a half the Elm Street Plaza. I love with the 1:15:32.760 --> 1:15:35.559 tree lights and just the more holidays play. 1:15:35.600 --> 1:15:37.639 Yeah, that's so cool because it like lights the path 1:15:37.680 --> 1:15:39.040 three to go though, which is you don't you don't 1:15:39.080 --> 1:15:41.240 love the festive It's like at the zoo with the 1:15:41.280 --> 1:15:42.280 big tunnel of lights. 1:15:42.120 --> 1:15:45.680 You walk through exactly well and not the thing. We 1:15:45.760 --> 1:15:48.920 wanted to make sure that. Yes, as the rink is 1:15:48.960 --> 1:15:52.160 physically moving, but we're really just expanding the experience. So 1:15:52.280 --> 1:15:54.600 rather than it just being in one spot, you just 1:15:54.680 --> 1:15:56.519 have to just like the zoo, you walk a little 1:15:56.560 --> 1:15:57.759 farther to the next experience. 1:15:57.960 --> 1:16:00.519 Yeah, I know, I picture in my head and like, 1:16:00.680 --> 1:16:04.640 just like Clark Griswold, it's gorgeous, it's beautiful. Yeah, and 1:16:04.720 --> 1:16:06.800 it makes sense too, because we try to cram everything 1:16:06.840 --> 1:16:08.559 at Fountain Square. You get the tree, you get the lighting, 1:16:08.640 --> 1:16:10.840 you got stages in concerts, you get the ice rink. 1:16:11.880 --> 1:16:14.200 There's no more room to go, So expanding it and 1:16:14.280 --> 1:16:16.080 moving at a block and a half is I think 1:16:16.120 --> 1:16:16.719 it's brilliant. 1:16:17.400 --> 1:16:17.599 Yeah. 1:16:17.720 --> 1:16:18.880 And then but that's a good point. 1:16:19.080 --> 1:16:22.160 A lot of people are asking the do Holliday Tree 1:16:22.240 --> 1:16:24.400 will stay on Fountain Square and so that's still on 1:16:24.479 --> 1:16:26.560 the corner of sixth to nine, and so when we 1:16:26.720 --> 1:16:30.080 do to flight up the square, we will still have 1:16:30.200 --> 1:16:33.560 that celebration on Fountain Square, but obviously a lot of 1:16:33.600 --> 1:16:35.880 festivities at the rink. And again we're just it's just 1:16:35.960 --> 1:16:38.680 how you make your way through either space. If you 1:16:38.720 --> 1:16:41.439 want to see the tree lighting physically onto Fountain Square, 1:16:41.520 --> 1:16:44.160 you can do that. But we also have an LED 1:16:44.320 --> 1:16:46.800 board at Elmstree Plaza and we'll be simulcasting it. So 1:16:47.400 --> 1:16:49.559 we're going to use the led boards at Fountain Square 1:16:49.600 --> 1:16:51.599 and Elmstreet Pop Plaza as a little bit of a portal. 1:16:51.680 --> 1:16:53.360 So you know, if you're ice skating and there's something 1:16:53.400 --> 1:16:56.560 happening at the square, we'll pop in to show you 1:16:56.640 --> 1:16:58.680 what's happening. So you can be at two places at once. 1:16:58.800 --> 1:17:02.160 Yeah, that's pretty cool about the holiday market or Chris Kendlemark. 1:17:03.240 --> 1:17:05.880 So that there is going to be Chris Kindle Market 1:17:05.960 --> 1:17:09.439 down at the Banks. It's more line h Lawn, but 1:17:09.640 --> 1:17:13.120 on light of the Square. We will have vendors that 1:17:13.240 --> 1:17:17.200 are on Elm Street Plaza and just again part of 1:17:17.240 --> 1:17:20.200 that experience. But the cool thing about Winter House, we 1:17:20.360 --> 1:17:23.400 wanted to make sure that there is another element when 1:17:23.520 --> 1:17:25.559 you need to get a gift quickly. We have kind 1:17:25.600 --> 1:17:29.479 of like an iHeart Cincinnati store in in Netwin the House, 1:17:29.520 --> 1:17:32.040 and so you can come pick the guests that are 1:17:32.800 --> 1:17:38.200 central or they're around Cincinnati, but it'll be a great 1:17:38.320 --> 1:17:39.880 place for one stop shop guests. 1:17:40.400 --> 1:17:45.240 Yeah, very very cool. Finally, Christy Samad, the concern for 1:17:45.280 --> 1:17:46.960 a lot of people listening you're gonna go downtown is 1:17:46.960 --> 1:17:49.759 wait a minute, now, We've had a rash of shootings 1:17:49.800 --> 1:17:52.320 all summer long. We've had more violence. It's a problem 1:17:52.400 --> 1:17:54.720 for sure. Is it meaning that Cincinnati is a no 1:17:54.840 --> 1:17:56.599 go I don't think so. I have no problem going 1:17:56.640 --> 1:17:59.680 down on a an evening and with my family even 1:17:59.680 --> 1:18:01.360 a little for that matter, and go and enjoy the 1:18:01.400 --> 1:18:03.840 holidays and the Funtain district and the skating ring. But 1:18:03.920 --> 1:18:06.040 there are people are here listening going. Ain't no way 1:18:06.960 --> 1:18:10.479 you can't guarantee someone's safety. But how does that fit 1:18:10.520 --> 1:18:12.560 into this what we're talking about here? Because you know, 1:18:12.640 --> 1:18:14.240 we just open a brand new convention center. Of the 1:18:14.280 --> 1:18:17.240 hotels going in, we want people downtown, and yet there's 1:18:17.280 --> 1:18:18.559 this fear of random violence. 1:18:20.040 --> 1:18:24.600 You know, I think in all downtowns, you know, across America, right, 1:18:24.640 --> 1:18:27.840 I mean there's always it's an urban area. I don't 1:18:27.880 --> 1:18:29.240 think I've lived down here. I have a two and 1:18:29.360 --> 1:18:31.280 four year old. I bring them downtown all the time. 1:18:31.439 --> 1:18:34.880 We live right by Sriendly Market, and I think that, 1:18:35.280 --> 1:18:38.520 you know, the presence of more people, the more activity, 1:18:39.600 --> 1:18:42.000 only helps that of the feeling of safety. I think 1:18:42.040 --> 1:18:46.479 that there's always going to be unfortunate incidences, but you know, 1:18:46.680 --> 1:18:50.920 I don't think that downtown feels unsafe by any means. 1:18:51.040 --> 1:18:53.439 And adding all of this activity again as the vibrant, 1:18:53.520 --> 1:18:57.640 the astholite as and excitement, and so I think, you know, 1:18:57.880 --> 1:18:59.519 that's what we need to lean into, is the more 1:18:59.560 --> 1:19:01.560 people that the downtown the safer it is. 1:19:01.920 --> 1:19:03.599 I'm sure it was a concern for you guys too, 1:19:03.640 --> 1:19:05.360 and what did the city has wage those fears to 1:19:05.400 --> 1:19:07.120 some degree? Have we added more security for this. 1:19:09.040 --> 1:19:11.240 Yeah, you know, we are working closely with the police 1:19:11.360 --> 1:19:14.000 and the city and there will be more visibility for sure. 1:19:15.320 --> 1:19:18.960 But again I think that we're thinking because there's more activity, 1:19:19.000 --> 1:19:22.800 there will be more police presence everywhere. But we want 1:19:22.920 --> 1:19:25.360 to you know, compliment that with all the different activities 1:19:25.400 --> 1:19:25.920 that we're putting on. 1:19:26.240 --> 1:19:28.240 Yeah. Yeah, as a family, you feel safe down there, 1:19:28.240 --> 1:19:30.200 and that's that. That's cratical. I mean I wouldn't. It 1:19:30.200 --> 1:19:33.200 wouldn't prevent me from going down there, for sure. I 1:19:33.280 --> 1:19:36.559 mean it sadly, it happens, and it needs to be addressed, 1:19:36.600 --> 1:19:38.320 but to me, it's not a deal breaker. I want 1:19:38.320 --> 1:19:39.600 to see the school stuff. I want to see the 1:19:39.640 --> 1:19:42.200 elves and the new Rank and all that stuff as well, 1:19:42.240 --> 1:19:44.160 and the Christmas tree because I love the holidays and 1:19:44.160 --> 1:19:45.679 a lot of people do. So get on and down 1:19:46.120 --> 1:19:48.040 and it kicks out. Yeah, go ahead. 1:19:48.160 --> 1:19:48.400 Sorry. 1:19:48.520 --> 1:19:52.840 One other thing, we also have, you know, downtown operations teams, 1:19:52.920 --> 1:19:56.960 the ambassadors. We have increased those as well, so you know, 1:19:57.080 --> 1:19:59.360 it's clean and safe for the city. But also they 1:19:59.560 --> 1:20:01.880 are wealth of knowledge, so if you're downtown and you 1:20:01.960 --> 1:20:04.400 don't exactly know exactly where you're going, you can always 1:20:04.400 --> 1:20:07.080 stop them. And so again it's just that more presence 1:20:07.120 --> 1:20:08.320 on the sidewalk, all. 1:20:08.320 --> 1:20:11.200 Right, Christy, what starts tomorrow. What goes on on. 1:20:13.600 --> 1:20:17.200 Tomorrow is the grand opening of Winterhouse and the do 1:20:17.360 --> 1:20:19.920 holiday tree comes early in the morning on Fountain Square, 1:20:20.000 --> 1:20:22.400 so you can come see that sucker, come in off 1:20:22.439 --> 1:20:25.400 the highway and start getting installed. I like to say 1:20:25.560 --> 1:20:28.920 that this is a process. This isn't immediately. The tree 1:20:28.960 --> 1:20:32.120 does not immediately look pretty right after it, so it 1:20:32.280 --> 1:20:35.000 may have times where it looks a little sparse, guys, 1:20:35.080 --> 1:20:35.719 but it will. 1:20:35.600 --> 1:20:36.800 Look beautiful, that's all right. 1:20:37.880 --> 1:20:39.920 So the that's coming to this square early in the morning. 1:20:39.960 --> 1:20:42.760 We've got a tree trimming party that coincides with that, 1:20:42.880 --> 1:20:45.760 so you can go into the Winterhouse have some holiday fun. 1:20:46.600 --> 1:20:49.040 We'll have some entertainment in there, and then from six 1:20:49.160 --> 1:20:52.439 to ten we've got the Visitansu's grand opening of the 1:20:52.520 --> 1:20:53.280 Winter House. 1:20:53.160 --> 1:20:56.160 All right, and it goes through the holidays as well. 1:20:56.280 --> 1:20:59.240 So Christy Samad with a three c DC, I love 1:20:59.280 --> 1:21:02.519 the idea I think it's a great reimagination, reimagining of 1:21:02.600 --> 1:21:04.479 this this thing because it needed it. It was been 1:21:04.560 --> 1:21:06.799 the rinkless, small as little tired, A little compact. Spreading 1:21:06.840 --> 1:21:09.000 it out I think is brilliant. Hopefully folks will get 1:21:09.040 --> 1:21:12.160 downtown and enjoy this as part of the holiday festilies. 1:21:12.240 --> 1:21:15.759 Christy all the best, Thanks again, Thank you, Take care, Christy. 1:21:15.800 --> 1:21:19.000 Samad three c DC on the Scott Sloan Show.

It doesn't really bother me, 1:21:22.680 --> 1:21:26.439 especially that area. You know, random violence happens on the roadway, 1:21:26.600 --> 1:21:29.200 so I'm that's second to hopefully not scare too many 1:21:29.240 --> 1:21:32.400 people away. Anyway, from trying to keep downtime going, we'll 1:21:32.400 --> 1:21:34.000 get a time out of news. How the way slowly 1:21:34.000 --> 1:21:40.040 seven hundred W.

And 1:28:11.240 --> 1:28:13.200 I'm sure we'll lose my soul, but it's going to 1:28:13.240 --> 1:28:16.680 be sold. However, this is your time if you are 1:28:16.800 --> 1:28:21.920 genuinely interested. This is the OG holiday experience where they 1:28:22.000 --> 1:28:25.160 have a you have a curated time.

Miracle at the Overlook Lodge. If 1:28:47.280 --> 1:28:49.320 you have been talking about this, this is the tenth 1:28:49.439 --> 1:28:53.040 year they've been doing it. Look at it today right now. 1:28:53.160 --> 1:28:56.000 Stop doing what you're doing because tickets are required for that. 1:28:57.200 --> 1:29:00.360 Yeah, it's like seventy minutes, right, yes, pretty cool. So 1:29:00.439 --> 1:29:01.639 you got they turned the tables. 1:29:01.680 --> 1:29:03.519 But it's but you, but it's fun. 1:29:03.560 --> 1:29:06.799 They have Christmas music playing, they have Christmas movies happening 1:29:06.960 --> 1:29:08.759 on the background, and it's just it's. 1:29:08.640 --> 1:29:11.880 Like what I think you describing in previous years. It's 1:29:11.920 --> 1:29:13.240 like you're actually in a snow globe. 1:29:13.320 --> 1:29:16.160 Oh yeah, they not to kill the excitement and the surprise, 1:29:16.200 --> 1:29:17.439 but yeah, to make it snow. 1:29:17.800 --> 1:29:21.200 They make it snow in the bar. Cover your drink 1:29:21.640 --> 1:29:22.519 right right from the end. 1:29:22.600 --> 1:29:25.759 It's like Christmas concentrated. All just it's like you seven, 1:29:25.840 --> 1:29:28.040 You're probably overwhelmed at the end of seventy minutes, like, Okay, 1:29:28.080 --> 1:29:29.360 I can't handle them right now. 1:29:29.520 --> 1:29:29.920 You can't. 1:29:30.040 --> 1:29:31.200 You're drunk on eggnog. 1:29:31.439 --> 1:29:33.920 I don't know s I got the rock cats, there's fireworks, 1:29:33.960 --> 1:29:36.760 you're fat, and everything's going. Tan is showing up. 1:29:37.360 --> 1:29:38.720 Just be happy that you don't have to clean up 1:29:38.760 --> 1:29:41.800 the snow after right shout out. 1:29:42.479 --> 1:29:44.600 So that's the miracle in overall, Claude the. 1:29:44.680 --> 1:29:47.320 Miracle, and then the second are in pleasant Ridge and 1:29:47.360 --> 1:29:49.600 then the second bar that really started to make some 1:29:49.680 --> 1:29:53.360 headway over the last couple of years. Mimicking is Cobblestone 1:29:53.479 --> 1:29:56.760 and o tr so talking about being downtown really close 1:29:56.800 --> 1:29:59.000 to Washington Park. So maybe this is one of those 1:29:59.040 --> 1:30:00.920 things where it's a fun day night where you're walking 1:30:00.960 --> 1:30:03.000 through the park and then you end at Cobblestone. You 1:30:03.040 --> 1:30:05.280 don't need a reservation for this, which is great, so 1:30:05.520 --> 1:30:08.800 you you get Christmas thrown in your face without having 1:30:08.880 --> 1:30:12.280 to overly plan an overly book. But it is fully decorated. 1:30:12.800 --> 1:30:16.280 The pitch they're calling it Pitchmuths so right by TQL. 1:30:16.760 --> 1:30:19.560 Normally it's a soccer soccer themed and they play a 1:30:19.600 --> 1:30:22.640 lot of I mean the cards yeah so up on 1:30:22.680 --> 1:30:24.640 the screen. So this could be your perfect combination of 1:30:24.760 --> 1:30:29.880 Christmas meets sports experience. They also have Christmas throwing off 1:30:29.880 --> 1:30:34.960 at their part. It's a full takeover your classic branded 1:30:35.040 --> 1:30:37.600 Christmas theme cocktails and they have two floors. But this 1:30:37.720 --> 1:30:39.479 could also be a really good space to maybe think 1:30:39.520 --> 1:30:43.360 about booking a holiday party because they have a entire 1:30:43.560 --> 1:30:47.679 second private floor upstairs. So if you're in that mindset 1:30:47.800 --> 1:30:50.599 right now of like, hey, I'm in charge of creating 1:30:50.680 --> 1:30:52.080 my office's holiday party. 1:30:52.760 --> 1:30:54.560 If you haven't done that yet, this could be a 1:30:54.600 --> 1:30:55.000 good option. 1:30:55.160 --> 1:30:57.320 You may want to I've got time. 1:30:57.560 --> 1:31:01.920 You may want to the office exactly exactly. So there 1:31:01.960 --> 1:31:03.800 are a couple of different options. And I believe there 1:31:03.840 --> 1:31:05.800 are still some down of the banks that are leaning 1:31:05.840 --> 1:31:09.320 into the holiday themed very good. 1:31:09.600 --> 1:31:12.760 Well Thanksgiving is coming up now, just a number of 1:31:12.880 --> 1:31:14.839 days here. Now, what if you don't have plans? 1:31:15.120 --> 1:31:17.160 Oh you know, I actually am not sure what I'm doing. 1:31:17.200 --> 1:31:19.040 So we fall into this bucket. So let's have this 1:31:19.120 --> 1:31:26.360 conversation together. I'm not I'm actually not sure what I'm 1:31:26.360 --> 1:31:28.040 doing because I just had the early thank shaving. 1:31:28.120 --> 1:31:30.880 So if you would like to host me, I will 1:31:30.960 --> 1:31:33.920 be more than yeah, I got a play for you. 1:31:34.479 --> 1:31:35.040 I would love that. 1:31:35.520 --> 1:31:37.479 But if and if you're like, hey, I don't want 1:31:37.520 --> 1:31:40.800 to cook, because normally right every Christmas I do or 1:31:41.000 --> 1:31:42.320 Thanksgiving I do it with Tiff and. 1:31:42.320 --> 1:31:45.920 We try to Vietnam or she left me, bhyey, she's 1:31:45.960 --> 1:31:46.960 in Vietnam. 1:31:47.479 --> 1:31:51.280 So Sobido has always been the og spot, the last 1:31:51.320 --> 1:31:53.200 couple of years that I would recommend, which is with 1:31:53.280 --> 1:31:56.679 the Little Hotel. However, I need to do a little 1:31:56.680 --> 1:31:58.880 bit more creeping in an actual phone call because when 1:31:58.880 --> 1:32:01.320 I'm looking on their website and I'm looking everywhere, I 1:32:01.520 --> 1:32:06.280 don't see that they are promoting a Thanksgiving meal this year. 1:32:06.400 --> 1:32:07.760 So if you're listening to this and you have. 1:32:07.800 --> 1:32:10.320 A tie to Soubido and the light'le reach out to 1:32:10.360 --> 1:32:12.400 me and let me know, because I need to know 1:32:12.479 --> 1:32:15.439 if you're doing that or not, because that truthfully, it's 1:32:15.439 --> 1:32:18.320 an incredible buffet every single year leans a little bit 1:32:18.320 --> 1:32:21.240 more into the Italian side, but places that are definitely 1:32:21.320 --> 1:32:24.160 locked in and you can go check out Coffins So 1:32:24.720 --> 1:32:29.160 Hotel Covington and they're going to be doing a dinner lunch. 1:32:28.960 --> 1:32:30.599 From noon to six. 1:32:30.680 --> 1:32:34.439 It's seventy five bucks a person, fifty five bucks if 1:32:34.479 --> 1:32:36.360 you're sixty five years or older, and then if you 1:32:36.400 --> 1:32:38.599 have kids five to twelve, it's nineteen dollars and kids 1:32:38.640 --> 1:32:42.120 eat under kids who are under four eat for free. Yeah, 1:32:42.120 --> 1:32:46.120 so that's that's not a bad cheese and it's an 1:32:46.200 --> 1:32:49.920 absolute the Thanksgiving buffet. So they have a cold station 1:32:50.200 --> 1:32:53.479 with the shrimp cocktail and fresh fruit, seasonal salads, and 1:32:53.520 --> 1:32:54.400 then your hot station. 1:32:54.760 --> 1:32:57.040 I love a good carving station.

People can crap on the green bean casse role, 1:33:06.320 --> 1:33:09.200 but I'm here for it. Mac and cheese, mashed potatoes. 1:33:09.240 --> 1:33:10.759 They do all of the coffins. 1:33:10.840 --> 1:33:13.040 Is doing the authentic Thanksgiving meal? 1:33:13.200 --> 1:33:14.880 Yeah, I was at a last time and it was 1:33:14.880 --> 1:33:16.720 a long time ago.
