1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: And Jason, I'm sure you saw this this morning, big

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: report out by the inquire here downtown took a little

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: bit of a hit in twenty twenty five. Lots of

4
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: factors were looked at. The economic activity activity in both

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: in downtown over Rhine areas seems to have decreased. Traffic

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: data shows less traffic down there, sales tax numbers are down,

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: public transit use down. What could be the cause of won?

8
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: Therewise well to help us discern such things. A good

9
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,599
Speaker 1: friend of the show, former city council member and now

10
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: public interest attorney, Steve Gooden, now joins us. Steve, how

11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: are you, great, gentlemen?

12
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 2: How are you? Hey?

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: Steve? Very good So, I guess when you saw these

14
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: numbers and you saw the report, what's I guess what

15
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: stood out to you as you learned this information?

16
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 2: Well, I guess in a shocking development, it turns out

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,639
Speaker 2: that having multiple shootings from bad daylight, ash of car

18
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 2: break ins, a giant brawl on Fourth Street that was

19
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 2: broadcast internationally, and just rampant gun play and street takeovers,

20
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 2: it turns out that all of that made downtown less

21
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: attractive to certain people who might be coming in, who

22
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: don't live in the city and wanted to spend their

23
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 2: money there. So you know, it's like that line in Casablanca.

24
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: It's like there's gambling in the casino.

25
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 3: I'm shocked.

26
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: You know, this is a absolutely no surprise. You know,

27
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 2: in my law practice, I worked with a lot of

28
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 2: bars and restaurants, and you know, we've been hearing this,

29
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 2: you know, antidotally for some time that some of the

30
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: restaurants were down as many as four percent. And really

31
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: it's it's the central business district where some of the

32
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: worst stuff happened. I mean, particularly those two shootings that

33
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: happened late last summer. Who was at five to eighteen pm,

34
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,559
Speaker 2: the other was roughly at seven pm. So these weren't

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: shootings that were happening in the dead of night, or

36
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 2: you know the old argument of what, well, I'm not

37
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 2: out after midnight, said nothing bad happens to me. No,

38
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: these were happening in the business district during what could

39
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: be considered you know, business hours and commuting hours. So

40
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: none of this is a big surprise. I mean, I

41
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 2: will acknowledge this that, I mean the convention center, that

42
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: redo probably doesn't count for a piece of that, as

43
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 2: does just sort of the general increase in commodity prices

44
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 2: and restaurant prices. We do see a lot of folks

45
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 2: a lot of restaurant prices going up because of fuel

46
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: and other costs, and that probably doesn't count for a

47
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: piece of it. But just the fact that we had

48
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 2: that brawl, which was news all over the world for

49
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 2: two months, almost the shootings, and we also see in

50
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: the data that car Breakainst Downtown have almost doubled. You know,

51
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: if you're not working down there or living down there

52
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 2: and are choosing where to spend your money, you may

53
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: want to go to Covington, or to Newport, or to

54
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: some of the things that are happening out at Liberty

55
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 2: Center rather than go downtown and potentially risk your safety.

56
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 2: And I know the folks at city Hall, I think

57
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: you know they resisted even the basics of this argument

58
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: all through last summer. And basically you wanted to argue

59
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: that it was anyone when you're talking the city down

60
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: if you're talking about these numbers. But at the end

61
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: of the day, you just have to be uh, have

62
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 2: to use some common sense.

63
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 4: Steve Great great to have you on the show, and

64
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 4: you know, I knew this is you know, Rock and

65
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 4: I were talking about who to get for this. No,

66
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 4: there's no one better than you. You know, in your

67
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 4: in your work in law, your work as former city

68
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 4: council member. You've worked in downtown both on the you know,

69
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 4: the the courthouse and the perception of the prosecutor side

70
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 4: and the private side for long, I believe, even didn't

71
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 4: you live downtown for a while.

72
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: Yes, I did for years.

73
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I heard Willie say this earlier. I wrote a

74
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 4: column last year in the Inquirer that you know, the

75
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: perception can lead to these things. Perception is reality, right,

76
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 4: And and then honestly, that's kind of the first sentence

77
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 4: of a David Ferrara's story in the Inquirer is that, Okay,

78
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 4: well this is real, This is these are hard deal.

79
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 4: This is now data that shows, like the perception of

80
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 4: a handful of things that have happened of now ultimately

81
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 4: led to hardcore data. And my question to you is,

82
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 4: if you were sitting on the City council today, what

83
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 4: would you be saying and what would you be suggesting

84
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 4: about how to reverse this?

85
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 2: Well, first, I'll be asking for a recount because I

86
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 2: lost my election. But the second thing I would say

87
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 2: is this just isn't We have to consider what Cincinnati is. Okay,

88
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: The city is three hundred five thousand residents, The whole

89
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: metro area is two point nine million. We are the

90
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 2: economic driver of a large kind of like the thirtieth

91
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 2: thirtieth biggest metro area in the United States, and what

92
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 2: the city does matters, and how we do policing, the

93
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 2: money we put for public safety, the money we put

94
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: toward our roads. You know, we cannot divorce ourselves from

95
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 2: Westchester or Mason or other folks. Those are the people

96
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 2: who come downtown to baseball games, to football games, to

97
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 2: soccer games, who go to the restaurants. We don't have

98
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: enough residents and we don't have enough affluent residents to

99
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: be perfect, perfectly blunt to support all of these things.

100
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 2: We are the hub of a region. We're not just

101
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: the city, and we can't divorce ourselves from that. And

102
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: the current city council, the current leadership is governing itself

103
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: as though it's a self contained city and it's a

104
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: very you know, it's a very blue city, very progressive city,

105
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: and they're putting policies in place, from bail reform to

106
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: how they are deploying police officers to how they're funding

107
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: public safety that reflect that deep blue kind of progressive

108
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: you know, I think at this point clear majority of

109
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: the city, but it isn't playing well with the rest

110
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 2: of the region. And I mean the way I look

111
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 2: at it's very simple. I have told my daughters. I

112
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 2: have college aged daughters that they're not to go to

113
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 2: the banks anymore because of the amount of bad things

114
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 2: that have happened there. I've told them, you know, I

115
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 2: watched them very closely as to where they go, and

116
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: they're old enough to make those decisions on their own.

117
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 2: But when you think about it from the same point

118
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 2: of what would you tell your own children, then you

119
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 2: get a sense. And I'm a city resident, so then

120
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 2: you get a sense of what the folks who were

121
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 2: in the townships and for the router are thinking as well. So, yeah,

122
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 2: the perception is everything, and our current leadership should have

123
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: been much more mindful of that. This was very foreseeable.

124
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 5: You know.

125
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 2: They had a point last June July where they could

126
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 2: have put a stop to some of this, and they

127
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: chose not to.

128
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: Well, and you make a good point. It's not like

129
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: the city is isolated and there's nothing else around. And

130
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: it's like the old saying, you're only as single as

131
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: your options. Well, there's lots of other options. You can

132
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: go across the river, you can go north, you can

133
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: go you know, stay in the suburbs. There's people are

134
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: going to are spending money, they're just choosing not to

135
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: spend it downtown. And my question you, Steve, is it

136
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: was late last year. I believe it was five point

137
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: four million dollars was spent for quote quote public safety.

138
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: I think it was you know, cameras and some drones

139
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: and all that. Did that not have any effect? Or

140
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: what happened to that money? What happened to this all?

141
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: We're actually acting like we're doing something here.

142
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 2: Well, much like the railroad money wasn't all you know,

143
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 2: released and spent on road repairs. A lot of that

144
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: five point four million was never allocated. I mean we

145
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 2: saw that like four hundred thousand of them went to

146
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 2: the so called curfew centers, and the inquiry did a

147
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 2: really good piece noting that only four kids stayed at

148
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 2: Pace Up, you know curfew centers. You know, the idea

149
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 2: was that.

150
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 6: They were you said four. I thought I thought you

151
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 6: said four. Like the number four, like three, it was

152
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 6: the number four. It was the number four, you know,

153
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,239
Speaker 6: tens of thousands kid.

154
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So I mean it was it was insane,

155
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 2: and and we do know that.

156
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: You know that.

157
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, you know, the we're in a contract year with

158
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: the FOP and the city's already signaled that they're looking

159
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 2: to reduce public safety funding by five percent in this

160
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: budget because they're facing a twenty nine million dollars structural deficits.

161
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: So you know, it looks like it's going the other way.

162
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: I mean, most of us have been saying for a

163
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 2: long time that we need more police on the street.

164
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: We need more beat patrols, old fashioned walking patrols, particularly

165
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 2: in downtown over the Rhine. Police visibility matters, and they

166
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: made some effort to do some high visibility over time,

167
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 2: but frankly, we just don't have enough officers to do it.

168
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: We have about nine hundred and sixty officers, give or

169
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: take a full compliment. That should be about twelve hundred officers.

170
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 2: But that was a number that was set in two

171
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 2: thousand and five, well before we had all these big attractions.

172
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 2: There was no Tiqi. Well then there was you know,

173
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 2: the stadiums were doing a different kind of business then,

174
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 2: and our population has grown about ten thousand people since

175
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 2: then just in the city, so it's a very different city.

176
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 2: So there's a very strong argument that police staff and

177
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: just cannot support the kind of policing we need to

178
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 2: have people out on the streets to send the message

179
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 2: to the people who have guns and who are looking

180
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 2: to steal and rob and fight and ball and do

181
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 2: the crazy stuff with their cars and the street takeovers.

182
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: They won't do that if there's a police presence. And

183
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: that is the big missing piece here, And that five

184
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 2: point four million dollars was even though some of it

185
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 2: did go to some high visibility over time, either most

186
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 2: of it wasn't allocated or my mind just wasted.

187
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 4: Steve, I thought you made a great point there earlier

188
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 4: about the fact that you can't as a member as

189
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 4: the mayor or a member of city council. You can't

190
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 4: just you know, look at this through a narrow lens

191
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 4: of the fact that you know, you block out people

192
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 4: from the suburbs, or you just don't think about visitors

193
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 4: coming in town. I mean, I wrote I said this

194
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 4: last year, like I was introduced to Cincinnati by coming

195
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 4: here every summer to go to a Reds game in

196
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 4: King's Island, and it ultimately fell in love with the place,

197
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 4: and ultimately it's went to school here and that's why

198
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 4: I'm here.

199
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: Is that more a indictment on this current mayor and

200
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: city council or has city politicians operated this way for

201
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: years and just kind of gotten away with it? Is it?

202
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 4: Or is it more of the the approach of this

203
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 4: specific city hall.

204
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 2: Well, I think it's something that's been trending probably for

205
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 2: the last seven or eight years. I mean, look, I

206
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 2: mean we had a period there, I think from twenty

207
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 2: thirteen to roughly two thousand, you know, fifteen sixteen where

208
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 2: we kind of hit that sweet spot. We were getting

209
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 2: all these new restaurants, all these new arts things, you know,

210
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: the TQL and f C Cincinnati really taking off, and

211
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 2: there were all these new attractions that were coming down.

212
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 2: We were reasonably well policed, the streets were in pretty

213
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 2: good shape, and it was just a great time where

214
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 2: people were coming in from the suburbs and having fun.

215
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 2: And Jason, I look, I grew up in Clark County, Ohio,

216
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 2: and regional tourism is one of the terms that we

217
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 2: use a lot it's the folks who you know, live

218
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 2: about within an hour's drive that come in. They want

219
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 2: to go to a ballgame. They may stay the night

220
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 2: in the hotel. They're going to have a couple of

221
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 2: meals out. That is a huge part of our economy.

222
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 2: And when they're seeing these stories about that, hey, if

223
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 2: you're out, you know that you might get beat down

224
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 2: in the street or you might get shot. These are

225
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 2: the kinds of folks who are living in Brown County,

226
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,959
Speaker 2: Adams County, Claremont County. Others you know that are also

227
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 2: you know, going to walk away. These are the folks

228
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 2: who might come in and spend five or six hundred

229
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 2: dollars over a forty eight hour period. They're just not

230
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 2: going to come in because they're afraid for their safety

231
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 2: and all they're seeing are these stories. And again, I

232
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 2: know the city makes arguments that there are certainly that

233
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 2: crime overall is down if you look at every last category,

234
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 2: but when you look at violent crime in the downtown

235
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 2: business district it was up fifty six percent. Similar numbers

236
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 2: and over the Rhine and Northern and over the Rhine,

237
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 2: and those are the places where people go to spend

238
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 2: their money and have fun.

239
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: Well, and yeah, some minor things people are going to ignore. Okay,

240
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: we're going to go downtown, gonna be like it. But

241
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: but if the violent crime number is up over fifty percent,

242
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: that's that's going to move the needle. That's going to

243
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: move the needle of a family living in Westchester or

244
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: Dell High or wherever, or Claremont County. That's eh, I

245
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: guess some other arm or even siding.

246
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 4: Thinking about Austin Elmore, I mean, he went to college,

247
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 4: he grew up in Sydney, he's a big Bengals fan,

248
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 4: And I mean, how many people live here today because

249
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 4: they came here as a kid. And I don't think

250
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 4: our current leaders at city Hall take that into effect,

251
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: that into you know, what what is that perception piece?

252
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: And like what is it?

253
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 4: You know, you draw one hundred mile radius out from

254
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 4: like you said, an hour outside of here, how many

255
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 4: people live here today because of the they came here

256
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 4: and had this wonderful experience living in Cincinnati, and they

257
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 4: ultimately came to college here and now they live here

258
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 4: and raise their families here. Like this stuff is going

259
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 4: to take its toll if it doesn't get reversed.

260
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: No, that's absolutely true. I mean, look, when I was

261
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: a kid, if my dad had offered me a choice

262
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 2: between going to a red scheme or going to New

263
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 2: York City, I would have gone to the Red Gas.

264
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

265
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: Cincinnati was a magical place, you know, with King's Island,

266
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 2: the ballpark, all these things. It's just it's magical, and

267
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: it was very family oriented. One of the things I

268
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 2: think too, that is just not being addressed U that

269
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: affects exactly this kind of like outer outer you know,

270
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 2: ring of regional tourism coming in is that is that

271
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 2: we basically stopped prosecuting that. Basically we have stopped prosecuting

272
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 2: pot smoking outside and you know, you can't walk.

273
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: Around downtown without smelling it's.

274
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and and like people coming down with their kids

275
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 2: from again from the Claremonts, that is that's just not

276
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: how they do it. I mean, you know those of

277
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 2: us who when you live downtown, you kind of get

278
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 2: used to it. It doesn't even register with you at a

279
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 2: certain point. But if you're coming in from from you know,

280
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 2: one of these like outer outer areas, that's it's it's

281
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: something that you don't want your kids exposed to you oftentimes,

282
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 2: and that's one of those little quality of life things

283
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 2: that I think has just been as much as the

284
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: violent crime. It just gives this sense of disorder when

285
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 2: you're walking around, you know, smelling arouona everywhere.

286
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: Steve, we've got about thirty seconds. Last question, the big

287
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: question if the if there was an election tomorrow, what

288
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: anything change would people the voters look at these numbers,

289
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,719
Speaker 1: you think and and and have drastic changes and who

290
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: they voted for? Do you think?

291
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: Frankly, no, It's funny. Was just the lunch today and

292
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 2: someone said, oh God, we want you to be there.

293
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: But you know, it's what happened was the local Democratic

294
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 2: Party dine an excellent job of painting everyone who was

295
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 2: talking about crime as being a quote MAGA extremist. I

296
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 2: actually got some of the mail delivered to my house

297
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: about me when we ran and you know, and and

298
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: really what seems to have happened is even in local

299
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 2: elections like this one, that the it's all about Donald Trump,

300
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: maga and whether the cities will quote unquote stand up

301
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 2: to him. Uh. And that seemed to be the big

302
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 2: driver in the last election. I think it would be

303
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 2: the big driver if those elections were held now. And

304
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 2: in a way I get it. The Trump administration really is,

305
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 2: you know, focusing on cities, you know, mid to mid levels,

306
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 2: you know, mid population. Said, he's like Minneapolis, and it

307
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 2: feels very personal to folks. So no, these quality of

308
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: life issues have taken a back seat to the stuff.

309
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: But as these folks focusing on their feelings versus their

310
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: actual physical pain, which is the violence, especially if you

311
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: live down here, it makes no sense to me. We

312

00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: Listen to eight. Otis Redding recorded this song I would

353
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,560

354
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,480

357
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,320

00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: man when he wrote this, or when he when he died,

369

Speaker 1: when he died. Yeah, and again he's got a he

Speaker 1: some tons of hits, but not not I mean, how

377
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 1: many more could they have had? Oh exactly? I mean

389
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,000

391
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: another song about him. Say if you're if you're gonna

392
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: like wrong someone or getting a tip of someone, don't

393
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: let it be someone who's a singer or right or

394
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: has some huge presence, because they will craft a song

395
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: around your name and go to town. And speaking of celebrities,

396
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to it only goes down from

397
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 1: Afro Man, right, I mean, he's that's it, He's But

398
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: I love that this is This is one of these

399
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: kinds of stories. I love and I understand. The caveat

400
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: is that social media will get mad about anything and

401
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: everything every and so it doesn't matter if it's left, right,

402
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: whatever in the middle. But this one's great.

403
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 4: There was a photo tweeted out or posted somewhere on

404
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 4: social media of the of the empty Dolby Theater in Hollywood,

405
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 4: which is where the Oscar ceremony was held, and there

406
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 4: is trash everywhere, like a movie theater would be, you know,

407
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 4: just cups and I don't know whatever snacks people have

408
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 4: there is. It looks like just wrappers of food and yeah,

409
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: like a typical movie theater. But social media is absolutely

410
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 4: teeing Hollywood up rock because I love this one, aren't

411
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 4: some of them environmentalists? One person posted, where's all that

412
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 4: quote protect the planet and energy now?

413
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: Because the place is trashed, Like it's just like a

414
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: balcony of you looking down and it looks like like

415
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: after like a Reds gameer Bengals game, right, yes, yes,

416
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: but maybe worse per Yeah, that's the perfect I love

417
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 1: this ano. Another another person chimed in, save the mountains,

418
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: keep them clean, blah blah blah.

419
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 4: But look at that mess they leave. Nobody's buying it anymore.

420
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 4: As the saying goes, a lion is revealed by where

421
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 4: it lies.

422
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: And and that's why, and and that is what is

423
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: absolutely killed Hollywood. I am, I've been done with him

424
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 1: for a long time. It's it's Hollywood hypocops apocripsy. Here's

425
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: another example. So there's some actress named Sharithra Schandren and

426
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: she is on camera here demanding a ceasefire in Gaza.

427
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: There's been a like a ceasefire in Gaza like for

428
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: like six months, Okay, but she's talking about Oh I

429
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,959
Speaker 1: demand this and I'm so blessed I have this platform,

430
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: and it's just like he just do you not read

431
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: the news? It's like, I mean, can we just again.

432
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: It's it's one of these things where I mean, social

433
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: media has ruined it because I think part of them

434
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: feel I certainly believe there's pressure, sure, because a lot

435
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: of Hollywood is liberal. So if you want to be

436
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: a part of the club and continue being a part

437
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: of the club, you better you know, carry the same uh,

438
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: you know, the same views and espouse the same thing.

439
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 1: But it's just if they all got together and said, look,

440
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 1: everybody just just stopped shut up, because it'll it'll it'll

441
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 1: just make it. I'll probably make more money because there's

442
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: movies I won't go. I won't go to how your

443
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: borm is getting ready to be one of them? All

444
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: this you know, pro Palestinian blah blah blah ah, this garbage,

445
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 1: and it's like, you know, I just like I need

446
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: to start making a list, like I do have one

447
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: in my head. I'm like, no, not going to see

448
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: that one. Not going to see that one. And it

449
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 1: was better when pregative to exactly and yeah, this is

450
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 1: not I'm not not going to make a big deal

451
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: out of it, but I'll spend my money where I

452
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: where I want to spend my money. And I've always

453
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,439
Speaker 1: kind of felt that way about I've never been a

454
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: huge moviegoer or you know, a big movie guy, but

455
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 1: like I've always sort of felt that way about Hollywood,

456
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: like they're just to touch. There's no connection there between

457
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: me and you growing up here in southern Ohio and

458
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 1: those guys like and any you know, even quasi authority

459
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: on something that they gotta have some experience in it, right,

460
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,439
Speaker 1: like and and and they have experience in their own world,

461
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: but their world is very very different from like ninety

462
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: of our world, right and and so they want to

463
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: talk about this and that and how hard this and

464
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: here's another one. So I don't know if you know this,

465
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: and we'll probably bring this back up later. But in

466
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 1: order to compete at the Oscars for Best Picture, okay,

467
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: all films must meet a diversity inclusion quota. And this

468
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 1: is like given, this is like put out from the

469
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: uh the Oscars themselves, right like their corporation to win,

470
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: to be one yeah, to be considered for say Best Picture,

471
00:23:55,080 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: one lead or significant supporting actors from upper underrepresented racial

472
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: or ethnic groups. At least one of the lead actors

473
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 1: or significant supporting actors submitted for OSCAR consideration is from

474
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: an underrepresented racial ethnic group and goes down lists of

475
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: all blah blah blah blah. Number two the general ensemble cast.

476
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: At least thirty percent of all actors not submitted for

477
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: OSCAR consideration are from at least two underrepresented groups, which

478
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: may include women, racial, LGBTQ blah blah blah blah. Number three.

479
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: Main storyline subject matter requirements. The main storylines, theme, or

480
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 1: narrative of the film is centered on an underrepresentative group. Again, women, racial,

481
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 1: ethnic group, LGBT, people with cognitive or physical disabilities who

482
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: are deaf or hard of hearing. So, if you want

483
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: to get an OSCAR for Best Picture, okay, again, you're

484
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: the main storyline has to somehow revolve around you know,

485
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: we're represented an underrepresented group, and thirty percent of the

486
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: actors you must must reflect at least two underrepresented groups.

487
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: And again it's it's amazing, it's absolutely amazing, and Hollywood

488
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,719
Speaker 1: wonders why people don't support It was better when you

489
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: didn't know. It's better when you didn't know, like their

490
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: their views on things is like, you know, throughout my

491
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: whole life, you're like, ok, that probably that guy right there,

492
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 1: that that actress. I bet she probably leans the other

493
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: way politically than me. But whatever, it's not my face.

494
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: I don't care. Do you believe what you want to believe.

495
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: But when it's so outspoken about it, that's when people

496
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: get pissed. Is that? Are you an understanding?

497
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 10: Is that in?

498
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 4: That's for any category, like if you're the composer of

499
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 4: the music for a movie, or you're a supporting actor

500
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 4: in a movie or this said, yeah for for like

501
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 4: for the best picture that that award? Okay, and again, lead,

502
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 4: the lead or significant supporting roles must be from underrepresented racial,

503
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 4: wrathmic groups thirty percent of all actor from two undred

504
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 4: ever underrepresented groups. And the main storyliner subject matter must

505
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 4: contain I must be centered on an underrepresentative group.

506
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 1: How about just and that's funny? One watches these shows

507
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be our topic. Laters like stuff that

508
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: used to be cool that is no longer cool, Like

509
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: I used to used to turn it on.

510
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 11: Right.

511
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: You see some actor, you know, they talk about stuff

512
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: they're funny that you like them, this and that. But

513
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: it's a great problem I have with any awards show

514
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: should be who what is the best film? Period? End

515
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: of story.

516
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 4: And also, like a lot of awards, and I think

517
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 4: this is probably veering from the topic at hand, but

518
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 4: a lot of these awards they don't take into consideration

519
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 4: audience at all, Like was this an incredibly popular film?

520
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 4: Was this an incredibly popular watch TV show?

521
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: Was this?

522
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 2: Like?

523
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 4: No, Like you'll see there's films that win things are

524
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 4: like what, I'd never even heard of that, but we

525
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 4: all went to see that movie. I was gonna was

526
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 4: gonna say, Hoosiers, I.

527
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 1: Guess one battle after another? I did. I guess that

528
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: one best Picture Michael B. Jordan one for Sinners and

529
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: Sinners and Saints or something. I can't.

530
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you what I've ever watched it.

531
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: I will say that I think that's why sports is

532
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: like like the the Alamo. It's the last thing, because

533
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: people know that the best players play, especially in the NFL.

534
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: I've talked about this. Yeah, there is no there is

535
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: no quota on how many of this group or that group.

536
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 1: It's the best player plays, and that's why it's wonderful.

537
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 1: And that's why it's the last house on the hill, man,

538
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: because people everywhere else you look, now it's great anymore.

539
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 4: And this is honestly why I think people get upset

540
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 4: when there's politics that are brought in to sports, because

541
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,880
Speaker 4: that that they are still exactly I mean, I learned

542
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 4: this lesson. I moved over from covering politics to sports.

543
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 4: I don't know, three or four years ago. You know,

544
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 4: I was like, I was trying to write a little

545
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 4: bit of a little bit of politics, not not partisan politics.

546
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 4: But folks do not want politics and sports intersection intersecting.

547
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: They Well, look at the whole upproar of the USA

548
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 1: hockey team. It was a great moment in America, but

549
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: it's like you weren't allowed to enjoy it because there

550
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 1: might be this political, you know, undertone sort of thing

551
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: to it. And it ruined it ruined it. Let's go

Speaker 1: Just a second ago, we were talking about the Oscars.

592
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: In order to compete for Best Picture, right, and at

593
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: the Oscars last night, all films must meet the diversity

594
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 1: inclusion quota. Right, So the lead are significant supporting actors

595
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: from underrepresentative racial ethnic groups got to have at least

596
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: one of the lead actors be of that line. The

597
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: main storylines, theme, or narrative of the film is centered

598
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: around an underrepresented group. So here's all the the Oscar

599
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: winners from years past that would not have qualified the

600
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: Godfather wanted to Know Country for old Men that departed Chicago,

601
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: A Beautiful Mind, Gladiator, Brave Heart, Titanic, Forrest Gump, Schindler's List, Unforgiven, Amadeis, Patton,

602
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: Blah blah, some pretty good films, right, like, yeah, none

603
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: of them would it would have won it. It's amazing.

604
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: That is amazing. And then let's see first, get right

605
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: at the gate. Three o'clock, we were talking about how

606
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: downtown is not is taking a bit of a hit, right,

607
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: A fewer people venture downtown. Traffic studies are showing that

608
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: how much money there is being sent downtown, and our

609
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: guest Steve Gooden, of course said the obvious, which is

610
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: it's because there's a big violence problem down there and

611
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: nothing being done about it. Let's take a call on

612
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: this matter. Let's go to Centerville and talk to J J.

613
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: Fire Away.

614
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 2: Please.

615
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 15: Hey, guys, I spent nineteen years in Portland, and I

616
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 15: watched that city go from absolutely beautiful, incredibly safe.

617
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 16: And a great place to do things to a complete

618
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 16: just a healthscape, a place that no one goes downtown anymore.

00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 13: leave last year and remains there while this city investigates her.

656
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 19: This Friday will mark five months since the City of

657
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:30,920

662
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:45,959
Speaker 13: crime problem in Cincinnati.

663
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,360
Speaker 19: The reason we called this press conference today is that

664
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 19: we expect the city's hired investigators to finally finally issue

665
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 19: their report on their so called investigation. We have reason

666
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 19: to believe that it will be a hacket hatchet job,

667
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 19: the hatchet job that we expected from the beginning. But

668
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 19: I want to say this to the people of Cincinnati

669
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 19: before this report is issued. There is no one in

670
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 19: the city administration that believed for a minute that Chief

671
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 19: Thiji deserved to be treated like this. There is no

672
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 19: one in the city's leadership who believed or who did

673
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 19: not regard Terry Thiji as an excellent police chief.

674
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,799

Speaker 1: That's right. But lots of ventures though I think there's

773
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,919
Speaker 1: some some should be some good games. Its no matter

774
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: who it is. We love our college basketball around here.

775
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:13,799
Speaker 2: And uh.

776
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,320
Speaker 1: And to talk more about this, bring on again. And

777
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,800
Speaker 1: you were one of your cohorts that at the inquire,

778
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 1: the one the only Shelby Durmer. Shelby, how are you.

779
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 24: I'm doing well, Thanks for having me on.

780
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: Guys, very good, So so Shelby, I guess, uh. Compare

781
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: this tournament again as things get ready to kick off.

782
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,799
Speaker 1: Compare this year's landscape compared to maybe some years past.

783
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: Anything stand out about this crop of of teams this year?

784
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 11: Well, I guess I mean you you.

785
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 24: Just touched on it with a local perspective. Knows DA

786
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 24: here and no U see Dayton's in the U N

787
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 24: I t you do have right state in from Dayton.

788
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 24: But I guess the big one when we, you know,

789
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 24: clear the dust from selection Sunday Rocky, is that you know,

790
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 24: this year the bubble was so bad that, uh, there

791
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 24: weren't really many controversies about teams being left off. I

792
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 24: guess you could throw Auburn in there, and then obviously

793
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,879
Speaker 24: there was a contingent of people who thought Miami didn't

794
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 24: deserve to get an at large bid from the MAC,

795
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 24: but there wasn't There wasn't much controversy with you know,

796
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,720
Speaker 24: a lot of these bubble teams, they're on the bubble,

797
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,919
Speaker 24: they're showing up on Joe Lenardi's ESPN, you know, first

798
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 24: four out, next four out, and they're you know, firing

799
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 24: their coaches. You saw that at UC with Wes Miller,

800
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 24: and you saw other teams that were on the bubble

801
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,240
Speaker 24: declining postseason invice that they weren't going to the NCAA Tournament.

802
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,959
Speaker 24: So I think the bubble was a lot cleaner this year.

803
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 24: I think it makes a lot of people are making

804
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 24: the case that the weaker bubble this year, they're an

805
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,919
Speaker 24: advocate to not expand the NCAA tournament from sixty eight

806
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 24: teams to in the seventies. So I think that's the

807
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 24: big storyline coming out of selection Sunday.

808
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,439
Speaker 4: We'll get to Miami to SEC Shelby. But first thing,

809
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 4: a little bit of a local intrigue here, and certainly

810
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,800
Speaker 4: Xavier fans have some interest in this since their team's

811
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 4: not in it. Xavier kind of a weird twisted way

812
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 4: of basketball. But Xavier goes last year to the first

813
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 4: four and beats Texas. Ultimately, that victory I think catapults

814
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 4: Sean Miller to getting hired to Texas and now he

815
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 4: is back in Dayton in the first four with the

816
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 4: Texas Longhorns. They will kick off the tournament tomorrow night. Sorry,

817
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,760
Speaker 4: they'll They'll be the second game tomorrow night at ud Arena.

818
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,840
Speaker 4: But Texas and NC State, what do you make of

819
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 4: Sean Miller coming back? I saw some things on Twitter

820
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 4: that you know, he leaves for double the nil money

821
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 4: and it really ultimately lands him in the same place

822
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 4: the first four.

823
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 24: Right, So a lot of people saying the grass isn't

824
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 24: always greener maybe a little too early to say that

825
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 24: in just the first year, but you think in hindsight,

826
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 24: he could have stayed around in the Big East with

827
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 24: a pretty talented roster, added more pieces in the portal,

828
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 24: kept some of the guys because Xavier, you know, once

829
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 24: Sean Miller leaves for Texas, you're left with just one

830
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 24: player on the roster for Richard Bettino. Certainly wouldn't have

831
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 24: been the case had Sean stayed at Xavier. And you're

832
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 24: you're looking at a Big East that by all accounts,

833
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 24: was a down year for the Big East, only getting

834
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 24: three teams that's Villanova, Yukon and Saint John's into the

835
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 24: Big East Tournament or into the NCAA Tournament. Excuse me, So, yeah,

836
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 24: it's certainly a weird way.

837
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 25: Uh.

838
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 24: One year later, you know Sean Miller had plenty of

839
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 24: big wins at Xavier, and I mean, Jason, you covered

840
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 24: that game at U the arena one of the best

841
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 24: atmospheres ever in college basketball traffics. S Field said the

842
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 24: same thing just the about the first four at Udy Arena.

843
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 24: Just the atmosphere is incredible. And yeah, to have it

844
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 24: come full circle, you have Xavier fans last night that

845
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 24: they kind of had an idea after Texas lost to

846
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 24: Old Myths in the SEC tournament pretty early that they

847
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 24: were going to be either on the wrong side of

848
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 24: the bubble and missed the NCAA tournament entirely, or wind

849
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 24: up with a number eleven seed and play at U

850
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 24: the Arena. So I mean, they're they're just jumping at

851
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 24: the chance to grab ticket and get down there. And

852
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 24: Sean Miller said as much pretty sarcastically yesterday in a

853
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,840
Speaker 24: zoom meeting with Texas media that he's got plenty of

854
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 24: friends in Cincinnati. I bet they can't wait to see him,

855
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 24: obviously sarcastic, because those Xavier fans are getting ready to

856
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,399
Speaker 24: go down there and they'll beat big fans that will

857
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 24: wade denc State Club to beat Texas.

858
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 1: Do you real quick, real quick?

859
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 5: Right?

860
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: Do you do? You do?

861
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 4: You really think there's gonna be a lot of Xavier

862
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 4: fans that drive the hour forty five minutes to an

863
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 4: hour depending on where you live in the region, Uh,

864
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 4: to literally go and buy a ticket for this just

865
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,240
Speaker 4: to root against them. You think there'll be a decent

866
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 4: amount of fans that do.

867
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 24: That, don't I think it'll be an okay, amount, I

868
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,799
Speaker 24: don't think it'll be over overwhelmingly NC State, but I know,

869
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,399
Speaker 24: you know, if you're looking at Texas last year, there

870
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 24: wasn't a lot of burnt orange in the crowd that

871
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 24: made the trip all the way up to Daton for

872
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 24: the first four, So I mean there's yeah.

873
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 4: It's got to be filled by the locals essentially, right.

874
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 24: Right, right, Yeah, I mean maybe the movement on Twitter

875
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,240
Speaker 24: is bigger than what it's going to be in real life,

876
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 24: but I'm certain there's going to be plenty that go

877
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 24: up there this year for NC State.

878
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 1: So Shelby, Look, I think a lot of casual fans

879
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 1: of the tournament love it because they love the Cinderella stories, right,

880
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 1: they love the nineteen eight three NC State I believe

881
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,360
Speaker 1: it was was a twenty eighteen loyal to Chicago or

882
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: eleven seed. They go to the final four and didn't

883
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 1: have what was her name, sister Sister Jean. She was

884
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 1: like one hundred and seventy eight years old, I think,

885
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 1: and she was like that was like kind of a

886
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:37,959
Speaker 1: big deal. Are there any I'm kidding? Is there any

887
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:41,360
Speaker 1: Cinderella stories this year? Or And I guess part of

888
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:46,880
Speaker 1: my question Shelby is has nil ruined any of that possibility.

889
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, it certainly made it more difficult.

890
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 24: Just I mean, the transfer cortal nil is kind of

891
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:57,360
Speaker 24: wrecking camaraderie in college basketball. So, you know, retaining that

892
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 24: talent on those teams that are ten less than twelve

893
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 24: seeds lay from a couple of schools that you mentioned,

894
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,719
Speaker 24: it's a little bit more rare. Now you still have

895
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 24: some madness, uh in the first couple of rounds. You

896
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 24: think of a couple of years ago when Oakland beat Kentucky.

897
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 24: A couple of years earlier before that was Saint Peter's

898
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 24: big run with Shaheen Holloways now the coach at Seaton Hall.

899
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 24: But certainly, but certainly to your point, Rocky, that it's

900
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 24: definitely going to you know, not completely, just completely, you know,

901
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 24: erase all the you know, the mardness, the madness of March,

902
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:34,439
Speaker 24: but certainly makes it less likely, I think. But yeah,

903
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,360
Speaker 24: I mean, but it's always going to be a big,

904
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:38,719
Speaker 24: you know, a hurdle for these double digit seeds to

905
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 24: run in the tournament. So it's been rare. But yeah,

906
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:43,759
Speaker 24: that's that's why fans love it, and that's why the

907
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,319
Speaker 24: tournament's great. As you have those upsets. But you know,

908
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 24: n I l before after during it's it's been pretty rare,

909
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 24: and it's usually, you know, the higher seeds that make

910
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 24: a big run.

911
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: So in this particular tournament, Shelby, any any of those

912
00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,919
Speaker 1: Cindrellas come to mind, anybody that you think can pull

913
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 1: an upset, maybe early on against a big school.

914
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 24: Yeah, So you know, I you know, if you're talking

915
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,960
Speaker 24: to my dad or something, he'll look at the seeds

916
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 24: and be like, that's a big upset. But you know,

917
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 24: if number eleven VCU beats number six North Carolina, the

918
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,160
Speaker 24: spread in that game's two and a half, it's not

919
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 24: a huge upset. Yeah, so maybe I'd like to give

920
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 24: you one that's a little bit bigger. It's like number

921
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 24: thirteen Hofstra playing number four Alabama.

922
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: Alabama roster player.

923
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 24: Three point shooting teams. Yeah, one of the best three

924
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 24: point shooting teams in the country. No one shoots more

925
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 24: threes in Alabama. But Hostra is the same thing, a

926
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,319
Speaker 24: top thirty three point percentage team. Cruz Davis played for

927
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 24: Rick Patino at Iona and at Saint John's. Now he's

928
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,840
Speaker 24: at Hostra. He averages twenty points a game. He and

929
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 24: Presson edmund Of combined for one hundred and seventy one three.

930
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 24: So you think of like I just mentioned Oakland with

931
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 24: Jack Golkie had thirty two points against Kentucky in the

932
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,880
Speaker 24: first round a couple of years ago. You get Hostra,

933
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:57,839
Speaker 24: a team that gets hot from three, like I said,

934
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 24: a top thirty three, top thirty three point shooting team

935
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 24: that could spell the recipe for an upset. So there's

936
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 24: a first round one, a double digit seed who's a

937
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 24: twelve and a half point underdog to be the heavily

938
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 24: favorite Crimson Tide squad.

939
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 1: Right now, I'm down. I'm I don't know.

940
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,239
Speaker 4: I look at the bracket and I don't you know,

941
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,200
Speaker 4: I pay very close attention to you see basketball and

942
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,399
Speaker 4: and the Xavier and you know, I just keep keep

943
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,520
Speaker 4: tabs on that because local stuff. But I really got

944
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 4: into the conference tournaments. And I'll tell you a team

945
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 4: that I really like a lot, Saint Mary's. And I

946
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 4: know that they're not a They're they're technically the favorite.

947
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 4: They're the seventh seed playing Texas A and M, which

948
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,439
Speaker 4: is just again one of those like you know, it's

949
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 4: kind of boring, like, oh, it's like a tenth place

950
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:42,919
Speaker 4: SEC team or they finished somewhere down there and it's like, oh,

951
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 4: they get in, and it's just kind of like snooze.

952
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 4: But I like Saint Mary's even though they're not the

953
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,840
Speaker 4: underdog like. I like them as one of those teams

954
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:55,800
Speaker 4: that could potentially as a non like so called power

955
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 4: conference school to get through.

956
00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 1: And I also like.

957
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 4: I like Akron a lot man like and maybe it's

958
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 4: just the historical part of it. They won the MAC

959
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,000
Speaker 4: Tournament three years in a row. You know, they they

960
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 4: actually played someone in their non conference in their in

961
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 4: their league, and I'd like to think that they probably

962
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 4: would have been undefeated too had they played Miami schedule.

963
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 4: That's a pretty dog one good team. And I don't know,

964
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:23,959
Speaker 4: I'm intrigued by that first round matchup between number five

965
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,400
Speaker 4: Texas Tech and Akron, number twelve seed.

966
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts. You can tell me I'm stupid, Ye.

967
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 19: You're stupid.

968
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 11: But Akron.

969
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 24: Yeah, they played Purdue on the road at Mackie the

970
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 24: fourth game of the season. They lost by I think

971
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,080
Speaker 24: nineteen points, eighteen points or something like that. So there's

972
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 24: your non conference. They also lost to I believe Yale, and.

973
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:49,359
Speaker 1: Yale won the Ivy League.

974
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 4: You even look at their schedule though, and like they

975
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:57,280
Speaker 4: played some better better like smaller mid major Division one teams,

976
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 4: not like three and twenty eight air Force for.

977
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 24: Example, Like they played Murray State on a neutral and

978
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:07,799
Speaker 24: lost a really high schooling Yeah nel, yes, correct, So yeah,

979
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,920
Speaker 24: that that's Acron's a great story. And and uh, certainly

980
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 24: Texas Tech with the loss of j. C.

981
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 3: Toppin, who was.

982
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 24: You know one maybe a Player of the Year candidate,

983
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 24: got a big nil. Texas Tech shoots the h Those

984
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,640
Speaker 24: are two top fifteen three point shooting teams in the

985
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 24: country if you really like offense. So that's certainly a

986
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 24: great matchup. And I wanted to go back real quick

987
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 24: to what you said about, uh, you know, Saint Mary's

988
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 24: Randy Bennett's team. That team just, you know, it's kind

989
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 24: of an old school It's kind of like you're watching

990
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 24: basketball in the in the nineteen nineties because they play

991
00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 24: at an ultra slow plate pace and sometimes they'll decide

992
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:45,720
Speaker 24: that sometimes they just decide like, hey, you're not scoring

993
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,399
Speaker 24: on us anymore. They're they're a top twenty defensive team.

994
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 24: And Ken Palm on the other side, they make the

995
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,399
Speaker 24: most out of their half court possessions, their top fift

996
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 24: team in the country and three point shooting and if

997
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 24: you get in south trouble against them, they're the number

998
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:58,720
Speaker 24: one pre throw shooting team in the country.

999
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:00,280
Speaker 11: So they're really old school.

1000
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, really old on top of it, man, Yeah.

1001
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 24: Really old school basketball in Saint Mary's and they play

1002
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:09,680
Speaker 24: at Texas A and M team that's going to really

1003
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:11,760
Speaker 24: try to speed them up. So that's an interesting matchup

1004
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 24: in just a contrast contrasting styles from both squads.

1005
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: I gotta give it to you, Shelby, as someone who

1006
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 1: is probably going to watch not many of these games,

1007
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,719
Speaker 1: I'm going to tune into that Saint Mary's Texas A

1008
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:25,320
Speaker 1: and M game because that sounds intriguing the way you

1009
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 1: laid it out, Man, that's pretty cool. Conflicting styles. It's

1010
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, the triple option versus the

1011
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: run and shoot, right, something like that. Yeah, exactly right, Shelby.

1012
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 1: So before we let you go, give us your final

1013
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 1: four and give us your champion if you're allowed to

1014
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: do such things.

1015
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 24: Yeah, sure, So in the final four. First, I'm gonna

1016
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 24: I feel like I picked Houston every year just because

1017
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,239
Speaker 24: just because Calvin Sampson is such a great coach. And

1018
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 24: the big one is you know in that region, Rocky,

1019
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:02,360
Speaker 24: is that Houston. If they were to get to the

1020
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 24: Sweet sixteen, they'd played the Sweet sixteen and the Elite

1021
00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 24: eight in Houston.

1022
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: Oh wow.

1023
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 24: So you potentially have an Elite eight matchup of number

1024
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 24: two Houston versus number one Florida, a rematch of the

1025
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 24: national championship last year, and it's gonna be a virtual

1026
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,319
Speaker 24: home game for Houston. And they were fifteen and one

1027
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 24: at home this year, so it's hard to pick against

1028
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:21,879
Speaker 24: them at home.

1029
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 11: So I take Houston coming.

1030
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 24: Out of the South. In the East, you have number

1031
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 24: one seed Duke, but they're kind of banged up. So

1032
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:31,000
Speaker 24: I'm gonna roll with number two Yukon. In a really

1033
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:34,720
Speaker 24: loaded bracket where you have twenty three combined final fours

1034
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:36,840
Speaker 24: from those coaches and seven national titles.

1035
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,319
Speaker 11: I'm gonna say Yukon gets rolling and gets to.

1036
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 24: The final four in that bracket, maybe another matchup with

1037
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:46,800
Speaker 24: Saint John's in the Elite eight. In the West, Purdue

1038
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 24: got a great draw, but I'm still gonna go with

1039
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 24: Arizona as the number one seed there. And then it's

1040
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 24: also hard to pick against Michigan as the number one

1041
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 24: seed in the Midwest. So Michigan, Arizona, two number ones

1042
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:01,400
Speaker 24: and two number twos, Yukon and Houston, and I would say, uh,

1043
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,680
Speaker 24: Houston Arizona the national title with Arizona winning it all.

1044
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 1: There you go, folks. First, that was a great breakdown, brother.

1045
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:10,799
Speaker 1: I really appreciate you joining. It might have been the

1046
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: first time ever on the Eddie and Rocky Show, Matt.

1047
00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 24: No, I think we we might have talked about the

1048
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 24: heat conditions that the Cincinnati Opened last year.

1049
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 2: Interview though.

1050
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: Now I remember Shelby just no great information, man. We

1051
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: really appreciate it.

1052

Speaker 4: He is the tennis tournament, right. Shelby's great man, good reporter.

1056
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 4: He does a lot of good work at the inquirment

1057

Speaker 4: and knows his basketball and it's Cincinnati Open tennis better.

1058
00:54:53,400 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 4: He knows this stuff better than the sheriff. That yeah,

1059
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 4: no one knows that better than sheriff.

1060
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 1: They say. He interviews some of them more pure names

Speaker 1: like that. But apparently, Jason, there's there's gonna be some

1106
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 1: crackdowns around the country. Towns are rolling out some alcohol bands,

1107
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:36,560
Speaker 1: some restrictions because they know when there's this level of

1108
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 1: drinking around, some good things don't happen. And join us

1109

Speaker 1: accountability and some other things. Please to have Morgan Ryan

1111
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:49,840
Speaker 1: on the show. Morgan, how are you.

1112
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:51,760
Speaker 25: Hi?

1113
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:54,680
Speaker 29: Good afternoon, I'm good. Thank you so much for having me.

1114
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 1: Very good. So, so, first to just talk about like

1115
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 1: on the days of the year where people like to

1116
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: really get after it. I mean, Saint Patrick's Day is

1117
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 1: up there right, yes.

1118
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,919
Speaker 29: Sir, It is currently ranked as number four. It goes

1119
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 29: back and forth between number three and number four. So

1120
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:16,400
Speaker 29: number one is Blackout Wednesday, that's before Thanksgiving. Number two

1121
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 29: is really Independence Day, and then we've got New Year's

1122
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 29: even Saint Patrick's say, fighting for that fourth spot.

1123
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: That's amazing. Yeah, exactly, that's a big that's a big

1124
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 1: battle there. So tell us Morgan about some of the

1125
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 1: I guess first, let me ask this. I'm sure you've

1126
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 1: seen these stats, aren't the younger crowd not drinking as

1127
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 1: much as as they used to or they or is

1128
00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:42,480
Speaker 1: that just some are not drinking but people are still

1129
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 1: kind of binging and abusing it kind of thing.

1130
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 29: Yeah, and so glad you asked. It's a topic I'm

1131
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:52,680
Speaker 29: super passionate about. Where we do see certain substances like

1132
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 29: alcohol going down. We see other substances like marijuana youth right,

1133
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 29: it makes sense this was legalized during the era gen Z.

1134
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,400
Speaker 29: Those substances are going up. We do see as well,

1135
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:08,400
Speaker 29: a lot more duisan dwi's, which is really where I specialize.

1136
00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 29: But unfortunately, we see high levels of binge drinking and sadly,

1137
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 29: our femalees, so our gen Z girls are now binge

1138
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:19,280
Speaker 29: drinking more than their male counterparts, which was not the

1139
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 29: case when I was in college. The frat boys usually

1140
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 29: took the cake on that one.

1141
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 4: Why is that's what's been? Is there a trend you're

1142
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:27,240
Speaker 4: seeing there?

1143
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 26: So?

1144
00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,920
Speaker 29: Why there's a big trend? And I want to talk

1145
00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 29: about the borg too, which is something that if anybody

1146
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 29: goes down on Saint Patrick's Day, they're going to see.

1147
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 29: But the trend, essentially it kind of starts from what

1148
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 29: I call the health halo effect. If you've walked in

1149
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 29: any target or grocery store and you look down the

1150
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 29: alcohol aisle, you might notice that it's pretty pink and

1151
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 29: sparkly nowadays. And so what started as this rose all

1152
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 29: day culture ended up in what I call canned cocktails.

1153
00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:00,600
Speaker 29: These are your little cans and come in a four

1154
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 29: pack and their spritzer type right or high noons, things

1155
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:08,040
Speaker 29: like that, and they are specifically marketed towards young women

1156
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 29: to be the healthier option. So if I'm going to

1157
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:14,080
Speaker 29: choose a swing of beer and something like a canted cocktail,

1158
01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:17,240
Speaker 29: I'll obviously choose the more low calorie, low sugar drink.

1159
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 29: The problem is those canned cocktails carry on average about

1160
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 29: three percent higher abb that's just the alcoholic eye volume

1161
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:28,960
Speaker 29: per can then a regular, let's say, glass of wine.

1162
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,400
Speaker 29: So what starts is, hey, I just need a four

1163
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 29: pack when I'm going out with my friends, you know,

1164
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 29: and I'm drinking one or two. Quickly, that tolerance level

1165
01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:40,000
Speaker 29: builds up. I'm only the age of twenty one, twenty two,

1166
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:41,760
Speaker 29: and then before i know it, I'm now having to

1167
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 29: buy two packs of these to keep up with a tolerance.

1168
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 29: Then we see addiction and.

1169
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,240
Speaker 1: Binging interesting and now I'm moregan. You mentioned a second

1170
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 1: go borg drinking bo RG. What does that explain?

1171
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,880
Speaker 29: Yes, sir, so the borg this is known as the

1172
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 29: blackout rage gallon. It is basically a gallon think of

1173
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,800
Speaker 29: like a gallon of water, gawn of milk that is

1174
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 29: a concoction of generally speaking, a healthier substance to start,

1175
01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 29: like water. A lot of folks who put electrolyte drink

1176
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:17,040
Speaker 29: mixes right your liquid ivs in there, and then they're

1177
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 29: going to just pour in, you know, all the things.

1178
01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 29: That's so and so brought some vodka, this person brought

1179
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:24,919
Speaker 29: some tequila. They're just going to pour in a bunch

1180
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 29: of stuff and fill up the rest of that jug.

1181
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,680
Speaker 29: So sometimes there's additional caffeine or you know, just other

1182
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:33,760
Speaker 29: additives to flavor it. But this is sort of the

1183
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 29: new open container. And so what we see in cities

1184
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:39,040
Speaker 29: like Chicago and Boston, these are the two biggest Saint

1185
01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 29: Patrick Staate cities. By the way, people are usually allowed

1186
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:46,560
Speaker 29: to walk around with a large jug of alcohol, but

1187
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 29: cities are cracking down on these boards, considering them a

1188
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,520
Speaker 29: bulk container and they will be confiscated.

1189
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,560
Speaker 1: So I guess the theory, Well, the drunk. College kid

1190
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 1: theory mostly is well, if I put some you know,

1191
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,640
Speaker 1: water and pedia lighte along with the alcohol, just cancels

1192
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 1: each other out and it's like nothing ever happened. Is

1193
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:07,560
Speaker 1: that the philosophy there?

1194
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:11,960
Speaker 29: Yeah, I think people think they're safer, I mean our kids.

1195
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:12,200
Speaker 13: You know.

1196
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 29: It's what's funny too, is we've seen like the fitness

1197
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:17,920
Speaker 29: culture grow too. Those the college kids we've seen now

1198
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:21,360
Speaker 29: are way more into fitness than you know, again kids

1199
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 29: my age were, and so they think that this is

1200
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 29: a way to control. But what they don't understand is

1201
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:29,800
Speaker 29: that a typical board is going to have on average

1202
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 29: seventeen times the amount of drinks compared to like a

1203
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 29: large container that they would carry.

1204
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 2: Wow.

1205
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 4: Okay, you mentioned you mentioned the crackdowns of cities that

1206
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 4: are I saw where Panama City beach. Obviously it's coming

1207
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:51,360
Speaker 4: up on spring break time. They're really cracking down, right,

1208
01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:55,280
Speaker 4: They're closing their beaches even at night. Does that correct?

1209
01:02:55,640 --> 01:03:00,120
Speaker 29: Yeah, yes, that's correct. And we see this overlap of

1210
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,040
Speaker 29: of a double WHAMMI We've got this Saint Patrick's say

1211
01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 29: holiday and then spring break happening at the same time,

1212
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 29: and it affects adults with kids too. A lot of

1213
01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 29: people that are vacationing, they want to go to the

1214
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,840
Speaker 29: beach at night. There's crabbing and other cool things you

1215
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:20,400
Speaker 29: can do. But we've seen so many fatalities. In fact,

1216
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 29: we see on average at least ten fatalities a year

1217
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 29: twenty five hundred crashes just between the seventeenth and eighteenth

1218
01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 29: of March, and about one hundred of those crashes usually

1219
01:03:30,760 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 29: always involve an impair driver. So cities like Panama we

1220
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 29: see all shores laws of zones. In Texas and Florida

1221
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:43,320
Speaker 29: as well as the East Coast there, especially by Boston,

1222
01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 29: we see areas like Virginia Beach and Myrtle Beach all

1223
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:51,000
Speaker 29: cracking down, in fact closing their beaches entirely at nighttime.

1224
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 29: And the whole here is that we are eliminating right

1225
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 29: and preventing accidents from happening. We also see in bars

1226
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:03,920
Speaker 29: in terms of restrictions, the earliest last calls of the

1227
01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:08,720
Speaker 29: year around Saint Patti's Day, and that's generally because we

1228
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,400
Speaker 29: have binging that's occurring in the beginning of the day

1229
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 29: with folks that are generally not used to that tolerance level.

1230
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,439
Speaker 29: So the theory is if we close the bar early.

1231
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 29: We do the last call early as well as it's

1232
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 29: stealing d u id WI checkpoints. We're going to prevent

1233
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:25,000
Speaker 29: some of these crashes from happening.

1234
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:29,000
Speaker 1: Very interesting. I wonder how how do these bars and

1235
01:04:29,040 --> 01:04:32,040
Speaker 1: restaurants and beaches feel about this, because I mean, look,

1236
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:35,000
Speaker 1: let's face it, that's that's some loss of revenue for them, right.

1237
01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:38,800
Speaker 29: It is loss of revenue in some aspects and others

1238
01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 29: it's not we see, you know. I love a good

1239
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 29: statistic Nielsen i Q. Their analysis is amazing when it

1240
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:48,080
Speaker 29: comes to drinking. They report that on average, just on

1241
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:53,440
Speaker 29: the seventeenth alone average, so it's could be higher two

1242
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 29: hundred and twenty one percent increase in revenue in sales

1243
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:01,320
Speaker 29: just from that one night alone compared to for example,

1244
01:05:01,560 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 29: a Saturday.

1245
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:03,600
Speaker 30: Before or a Tuesday before.

1246
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:06,360
Speaker 29: So I think it depends on the circumstances. But yes,

1247
01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:10,600
Speaker 29: the key here is let's let's celebrate safely. So we

1248
01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 29: love our heritage in America, right, and we love good food,

1249
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,360
Speaker 29: we love good good people, we love you know, good traditions.

1250
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:19,240
Speaker 29: But the key here is to to stay as safe

1251
01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:22,919
Speaker 29: as possible and really to plan ahead with restrictions too.

1252
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:25,920
Speaker 29: The one thing I always say is Look, alcohol isn't evil.

1253
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,280
Speaker 29: You know, marijuana isn't isn't evil. We just need to

1254
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,120
Speaker 29: model moderation. You know, I talk about uber, but a

1255
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:34,080
Speaker 29: lot of our country doesn't have access to er. So

1256
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,600
Speaker 29: call your mom, call your dad, call your hero, whoever

1257
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 29: it is. Have a key keeper where you physically put

1258
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 29: your keys in a thing so that you can't access them,

1259
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,080
Speaker 29: and plan ahead to stay safe and drive smart so

1260
01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:47,200
Speaker 29: you don't end up in my purview, which is obviously

1261
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 29: post to why.

1262
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:52,560
Speaker 1: Yes and like yeah no, no boorg drinking. That's centered.

1263
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:54,200
Speaker 1: I had not heard of that until you describe that

1264
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:58,280
Speaker 1: for Morgan, But that's that's wild. So Morgan, Hey, great stuff.

1265
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 1: If folks want to find out more about you and

1266
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:01,800
Speaker 1: what it is that you do, where can they go?

1267
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1268
01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 29: So I have an international podcast. It's called Stigma Free.

1269
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,400
Speaker 29: I I d like Ignition interlock device, that's the car

1270
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:12,280

Speaker 29: we are. We don't stigmatize in the process. I talk

1276
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,360
Speaker 29: a lot about mommy wine culture. I do talk about marijuana.

1277
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 29: I believe that, you know, judgment free is really the

1278
01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 29: way to be. That's how we prevent these things from happening.

1279
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:34,000
Speaker 29: So STAYGLI free. I D can follow me on Instagram too,

1280
01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 29: It's Morgan Ryan Official. I talk a lot about daily discipline,

1281
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:39,960
Speaker 29: daily deliverance, so to speak. If you're going through a

1282
01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 29: hard time, like a calibration with an I I D.

1283
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:45,640
Speaker 29: So from the words of Morgan Ryan, model moderation, happy

1284
01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:48,520
Speaker 29: Saint Patrick's day, stay safe and drive smart.

Speaker 1: are very good. Let's go. That's kind of one of

1351
01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 1: these viral trends here, Jason, I guess apparently are filming

1352
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:22,519
Speaker 1: themselves walking into hotels that they're not staying at and

1353
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:26,400
Speaker 1: eating the free breakfast, the pancakes and the thing and

1354
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:28,800
Speaker 1: the you know, pretending to be guests, but doing it

1355
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 1: and then and then posting it online, which that one

1356
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:34,360
Speaker 1: always shocks me. It's like you're telling the whole world,

1357
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:38,919
Speaker 1: I'm dead beat, who is stealing something from this restaurant?

1358
01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:41,880
Speaker 1: And by the way, this is why one day that

1359
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 1: they're not going to have a free breakfast because they

1360
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 1: know people take advantage.

1361
01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:49,880
Speaker 4: It's already baked into your hotel, but it'll be even

1362
01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,640
Speaker 4: a bigger expense on your hotel bill, exactly.

1363
01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:55,360
Speaker 1: If you got kids. I mean, you got to stay

1364
01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:58,040
Speaker 1: at that. I mean, look, it's not I doubt it's

1365
01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:02,960
Speaker 1: even actually real food. But those eggs, yeah, so the

1366
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 1: powdered eggs, you know, I guess.

1367
01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 4: But anyway, you're right, man, those are great because usually

1368
01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:12,240
Speaker 4: we go on spring break, we drive, we stop at night,

1369
01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 4: and you want a place like that so the kids

1370
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:16,919
Speaker 4: can load up because dad ain't stopping.

1371
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:17,479
Speaker 2: Good.

1372
01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:19,200

Speaker 1: flakes in the morning, man, and let's go. Let's go.

1374
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:27,600
Speaker 1: Fake eggs, fake, fake, fake eggs you can usually. Yeah,

1375
01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:30,559
Speaker 1: it's not even the fake scrambled eggs. It's the one

1376
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:36,080
Speaker 1: though they have like the peeled, hard boiled egg I'm like, yeah, right,

1377
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 1: I remember in college they had those and they were

1378
01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 1: I mean they literally came like two gallon like like

1379
01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:42,000
Speaker 1: buckets and it's.

1380
01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:44,320
Speaker 7: Like real.

1381
01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:48,960
Speaker 1: Who boiled them and shelled them and threw like a

1382
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,519
Speaker 1: seven hundred of them in that buck right? Bucket?

1383
01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 2: Right?

1384
01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:58,879
Speaker 1: It's a great question anyway. On another note, the Oscars

1385
01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,240
Speaker 1: were on last night, Jason, I know you were glued

1386
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:05,000
Speaker 1: to the television watching watched every minute. Uh no. But

1387
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 1: the topic here is going to be things that you

1388
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:12,080
Speaker 1: used to watch or used to like, or things that

1389
01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:14,880
Speaker 1: used to be cool that that no longer are. I

1390
01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:16,799
Speaker 1: remember a day when I was young when the Ostris

1391
01:12:16,840 --> 01:12:19,560
Speaker 1: came on. That's cool. You get to see, you know,

1392
01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:21,639
Speaker 1: when I was young, like Batman came out, So wow,

1393
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,519
Speaker 1: Jack Nicholson, you know, it's kind of cool, and there

1394
01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 1: were some intrigue behind these people. I feel like it's

1395
01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:30,160
Speaker 1: all been ruined because it's all like some you know,

1396
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,120
Speaker 1: political statement. It's all this and that. You know that

1397
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:37,360
Speaker 1: the describer ruin something. Yeah, as we as we talked

1398
01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:40,840
Speaker 1: about earlier, you know, even the awards or there's it's

1399
01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:42,960
Speaker 1: not going to the best film, it's going to the

1400
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:45,720
Speaker 1: best one that has the most you know, DEI this

1401
01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 1: and that and the other, that sort of thing. So

1402
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 1: the topic again is things that used to be cool,

1403
01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:52,599
Speaker 1: things that used to like, things that were great that

1404
01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:55,719
Speaker 1: no longer are. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand.

1405
01:12:55,760 --> 01:13:00,599
Speaker 1: I'll start with one airline travel. Yeah, Okay. I remember,

1406
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,519
Speaker 1: like I took my first flight like in college, and

1407
01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:07,559
Speaker 1: that was like right before you know, or actually, yeah,

1408
01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:09,439
Speaker 1: it was like right before you know, nine to eleven.

1409
01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:11,280
Speaker 1: So that was when you know, you could just walk

1410
01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 1: basically right into the airport, walk right back to the gate.

1411
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:17,200
Speaker 1: Your parents could go with you, this and that and now,

1412
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:20,760
Speaker 1: I mean aside from even the TSA. So it's just

1413
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:23,920
Speaker 1: like from the second you pull into the airport until

1414
01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:27,200
Speaker 1: the time you leave it, it's just like stress. Where

1415
01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:29,120
Speaker 1: am I going to park? I gotta pay to park,

1416
01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,479
Speaker 1: and I gotta get to TSA, and I gotta get

1417
01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 1: in the line. I gotta do this, and then where's

1418
01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 1: my gate at? And I get scrunched onto this plane.

1419
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,240
Speaker 1: So we'll take your calls five one, three, seven, nine,

1420

Speaker 1: seven thousand. Things that used to like, things that used

1421
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:43,519

1555
01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:41,160
Speaker 1: in light of the oscars. How I don't think no

1556
01:20:41,240 --> 01:20:44,120
Speaker 1: one watches that. No one watches that show the way

1557
01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:45,960
Speaker 1: they used to. That used to be like appointment, youwing,

1558
01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:48,200
Speaker 1: because I remember as a kid and being kind of

1559
01:20:48,240 --> 01:20:51,040
Speaker 1: cool that you're seeing some of these actors and actresses

1560
01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:53,599
Speaker 1: that were great at what they did and there wasn't

1561
01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:56,000
Speaker 1: like this big political statement. It was just kind of

1562
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:58,200
Speaker 1: a fun show and you get to see some personality.

1563
01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:00,720
Speaker 1: It is great. That's all gone by the wayside. So

1564
01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:03,760
Speaker 1: the topic we're doing is things that used to be cool,

1565
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:06,400
Speaker 1: things that used to be great, things used to enjoy,

1566
01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:10,800
Speaker 1: but for whatever reason, now you don't enjoy them. And

1567
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:13,280
Speaker 1: I laid out airline travel I think used to be

1568
01:21:13,320 --> 01:21:16,840
Speaker 1: a little bit, a little bit more upscale and just

1569
01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,480
Speaker 1: a little bit you know. Now it's just it's stressful.

1570
01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:22,200
Speaker 1: By the time when I get off the exit going

1571
01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:23,680
Speaker 1: to there, or get you know, off the exit to

1572
01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:25,920
Speaker 1: go to the airport. It's like my blood pressure just

1573
01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:27,640
Speaker 1: immediately because I'm like, okay, where am I going to

1574
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:30,320
Speaker 1: park at? Is then okay? And then I got to

1575
01:21:30,320 --> 01:21:32,639
Speaker 1: pay the part And it's just from from the time

1576
01:21:32,680 --> 01:21:35,200
Speaker 1: you get on to the time you get off stressful.

1577
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:38,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, mine was more specific Rock. When you asked this question,

1578
01:21:39,360 --> 01:21:44,200
Speaker 4: I went right to bob Evans, like I grew up on.

1579
01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 4: I grew up ten minutes from bob Evans farm, bob Evans.

1580
01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:49,400
Speaker 4: We had to bob Evans within I don't know, ten

1581
01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:52,120
Speaker 4: minutes of my house. You know, the home of Bob

1582
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:53,720
Speaker 4: Evans is where I grew up. And so it was

1583
01:21:53,720 --> 01:21:56,280
Speaker 4: a big deal there. And that was the nice restaurant

1584
01:21:56,320 --> 01:21:59,160
Speaker 4: you had this this cool restaurant out in Ryot, Grand, Ohio.

1585
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:01,320
Speaker 1: The general store, the farm.

1586
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:06,360
Speaker 4: The restaurant was hamemade everything, this and that and ever

1587
01:22:06,479 --> 01:22:08,760
Speaker 4: since they were so I think they now are on

1588
01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 4: their like their second corporate owner, venture venture capitalists, you know,

1589
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:16,240
Speaker 4: one of those types of they they've gone down.

1590
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:18,360
Speaker 1: It's like my whole family, dad.

1591
01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:20,000
Speaker 4: Like I used to we used to look forward to

1592
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:21,800
Speaker 4: going there breakfast like.

1593
01:22:23,320 --> 01:22:24,840
Speaker 1: And it's just it's not the same.

1594
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:27,479
Speaker 4: I know, that's more of a specific thing that's not

1595
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:29,880
Speaker 4: the same as it used to be. That was the

1596
01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:32,200
Speaker 4: first thing came to mind when you asked that question.

1597
01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:35,680
Speaker 4: And I'm curious to see what all say, Yeah, processed

1598
01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:37,960
Speaker 4: ish instead of home service.

1599
01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:40,240
Speaker 1: And uh yeah the food, like yeah, all right, So

1600
01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:42,160
Speaker 1: that is a topic five one three seven for nine,

1601
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:44,920
Speaker 1: seven thousand, let's go to a Wilmington. I like this one.

1602
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,559
Speaker 1: I think Charlie, Charlie, fire away, buddy, what do you

1603
01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:48,880
Speaker 1: got a rock?

1604
01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:49,120
Speaker 2: Ye?

1605
01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 39: I think the All Star games that includes Major League Baseball,

1606
01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:58,040
Speaker 39: the NBA and the Pro Bowl. I mean, maybe I'm

1607
01:22:58,080 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 39: just a little more of a traditionalist, but Whendy, the

1608
01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:03,920
Speaker 39: last time you remember, like for baseball, that the reporter

1609
01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:07,240
Speaker 39: was allowed to walk onto the field or talk to them,

1610
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:10,679
Speaker 39: you know, like why they're why they're trying to pitts

1611
01:23:10,760 --> 01:23:14,000
Speaker 39: even I just think that, you know, I like the

1612
01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 39: old All Star Game. There was competition. There's nothing now.

1613
01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:19,360
Speaker 39: I mean, you know, I agree with there.

1614
01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:23,519
Speaker 1: I mean the NBA All Star Game is unwatchable. I

1615
01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:27,240
Speaker 1: think the NFL Pro Bowl is is unwatchable. Now it's bad.

1616
01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:31,040
Speaker 1: I mean maybe baseball is. It still ain't the same, right,

1617
01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:34,799
Speaker 1: I think it's a good call. NBA game and MLB

1618
01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:38,320
Speaker 1: alls every year now man, Yeah, yeah, I'll catch a

1619
01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:42,480
Speaker 1: little bit of the Major Baseball and still yeah.

1620
01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:43,599
Speaker 39: I mean I'll watch a little bit of it, but

1621
01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:45,360
Speaker 39: for the most part of the NBA.

1622
01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:48,479
Speaker 4: Like maybe I won't watched that in years.

1623
01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:50,639
Speaker 39: Yeah, no, thanks for taking my call.

1624
01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:55,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, Charlie going, thanks buddy. I think they're just in

1625
01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:57,799
Speaker 1: sports in general. I don't feel like there's the hatred

1626
01:23:57,800 --> 01:23:59,880
Speaker 1: the way there used to be. Even an All Star game,

1627
01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:02,880
Speaker 1: you should be you know, like, I don't know, want

1628
01:24:02,880 --> 01:24:05,479
Speaker 1: these team from the other conference win. I mean people

1629
01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:07,479
Speaker 1: used to, i know in the NFL from guys I

1630
01:24:07,520 --> 01:24:10,080
Speaker 1: played with that one, and they're like, you know, we

1631
01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:12,360
Speaker 1: still went out there to you know, to try to win,

1632
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:16,600
Speaker 1: you know, and now it's different. Let's go to Independence

1633
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:18,360
Speaker 1: and talk to Mike. Mike fire away, please.

1634
01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:22,439
Speaker 5: Yeah. I was just gonna sort of piggybacking on what

1635
01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:27,880
Speaker 5: the previous caller. But it's college sports, college football, college basketball.

1636
01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:30,559
Speaker 5: I used to be just a huge fan, tuned in

1637
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,639
Speaker 5: every week, you know, get touched that by my wife

1638
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:38,200
Speaker 5: for blocking off a Saturday. But now with the transfer portal,

1639
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:46,080
Speaker 5: nil deals, college conference realignment, it's it's almost become unwatchable

1640
01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 5: for me personally.

1641
01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:50,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's a very good call because and

1642
01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:52,759
Speaker 1: I think a lot of folks are in that boat.

1643
01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:58,040
Speaker 1: And and Mike, thank you very much. Because year to

1644
01:24:58,120 --> 01:25:00,400
Speaker 1: year you don't know the players like you, you kind

1645
01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:03,360
Speaker 1: of get invested in a roster and Okay, man we

1646
01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:06,280
Speaker 1: got this, you know, sophomore quarterback coming back. No, he's

1647
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:09,400
Speaker 1: not back. It's like, you know, fifteen twenty new guys.

1648
01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:09,800
Speaker 2: Right.

1649
01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:13,960
Speaker 1: So I think there's a college fromtball that they got

1650
01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:15,880
Speaker 1: to be careful because I know numbers were through the

1651
01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:18,479
Speaker 1: roof last year and it's not going anywhere. But you

1652
01:25:18,520 --> 01:25:21,479
Speaker 1: gotta be careful if for people kind of you know,

1653
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:24,640
Speaker 1: turning people off by that, yes, which by the way,

1654
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:27,240
Speaker 1: is why they're you know a lot of folks met

1655
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,120
Speaker 1: at the White House. Was that two weeks ago? Oh yeah, yeah.

1656
01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:32,719
Speaker 1: I don't never really heard anything that came out of it,

1657
01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:36,120
Speaker 1: is there. Yeah, let's go to a Mason and talking

1658
01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:37,240
Speaker 1: to Tim Tim fire Away.

1659
01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:41,400
Speaker 11: Please, Well, great topic, and I agree with everything you

1660
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 11: guys and the callers have said. I would add to that.

1661
01:25:45,120 --> 01:25:48,640
Speaker 11: I even before this whole thing I have about Hollywood

1662
01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:51,120
Speaker 11: and their you know, all their political comments. I just

1663
01:25:51,200 --> 01:25:54,240
Speaker 11: wasn't trying going to movies all that fun anymore. People

1664
01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:57,920
Speaker 11: on their phones, people talking. It just wasn't enjoyable experience.

1665
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:00,439
Speaker 11: You add the cost to it, and it was just crazy.

1666
01:26:00,479 --> 01:26:01,160
Speaker 2: I'd add to that.

1667
01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:05,000
Speaker 11: Also, going to Bengals games, just too many jerks getting

1668
01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:09,599
Speaker 11: drunk and acting up and lastly eating out. I just

1669
01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:12,240
Speaker 11: don't think the service and the value is there. So

1670
01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 11: for those things, I've mentioned to me that what's the phrase,

1671
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:18,120
Speaker 11: the juice is a worse the squeeze. I mean, it

1672
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:20,400
Speaker 11: just it just doesn't seem worth my time and money anymore.

1673
01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 1: And Tim, thank you very much. I think he nailed

1674
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,680
Speaker 1: three of them. And I would say the NFL like

1675
01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:28,600
Speaker 1: the one. I mean, the NFL is the king of

1676
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,639
Speaker 1: everything right now. The one issue they have is that

1677
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:35,639
Speaker 1: people going to the games in stadiums and for whatever reason,

1678
01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:37,880
Speaker 1: people will like to get blackout drunk. And maybe it's

1679
01:26:37,920 --> 01:26:40,479
Speaker 1: because beers in the stadium cost fifteen bucks or you

1680
01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:44,000
Speaker 1: want to load up before I get that, but that

1681
01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,080
Speaker 1: is I know some people that won't take their young

1682
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:48,000
Speaker 1: kids to a game.

1683
01:26:48,240 --> 01:26:50,679
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm a pretty tough guy, and I don't,

1684
01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:52,960
Speaker 4: you know, whatever the ways of the world, like you

1685
01:26:53,040 --> 01:26:53,879
Speaker 4: got to be exposed.

1686
01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:55,160
Speaker 1: I'm one of those people.

1687
01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 4: I always said, I was like, an NFL game is

1688
01:26:58,080 --> 01:27:01,640
Speaker 4: no place for a kid, and it's un fortunately my

1689
01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:03,519
Speaker 4: kids love it and they you know, they love the

1690
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 4: Bengals and one kid loves another team and the Ray

1691
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:08,679
Speaker 4: he likes the Ravens for some reason.

1692
01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:10,559
Speaker 1: I have no idea why. He just I think one

1693
01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:16,679
Speaker 1: of his buddies does. So, of course, yeah we did,

1694
01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:19,000
Speaker 1: Like I'm like, what, he's on fire up the Trey

1698
01:27:29,360 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 1: and talk to Sean. Sean fire away.

1699
01:27:32,439 --> 01:27:35,120
Speaker 9: Well, it's one of the previous callers talk about movies

1700
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:38,559
Speaker 9: that that's just not as fun anymore. But I'll pivot

1701
01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:41,920
Speaker 9: a little bit too as well, and I'll say that

1702
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:47,800
Speaker 9: the big concert arenas shows, rock shows just aren't as

1703
01:27:47,800 --> 01:27:50,240
Speaker 9: fun anymore when you're paying for you know, they have

1704
01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:52,240
Speaker 9: to pay three hundred dollars a seat and you're still

1705
01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 9: in the nosebleeds.

1706
01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:56,080
Speaker 16: And I don't think that.

1707
01:27:56,200 --> 01:27:59,240
Speaker 9: I remember the days, you know, Cincinnati Gardens or Hair

1708
01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:01,479
Speaker 9: Arena you could in and see a major show for

1709
01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 9: twenty bucks. And and now, I mean twenty bucks doesn't

1710
01:28:05,080 --> 01:28:06,320
Speaker 9: even get you in the parking lot.

1711
01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:12,320
Speaker 1: So I know I agree, and Sean, thank you. I

1712
01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:15,559
Speaker 1: remember what wasn't the Eagles on their Hell Freezes Over

1713
01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:18,200
Speaker 1: tour that was like the first was not the first,

1714
01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:21,560
Speaker 1: like one hundred dollars ticket. I remember, like, wow, I

1715
01:28:21,640 --> 01:28:24,000
Speaker 1: may be wrong in that, but I feel like that's true.

1716
01:28:24,320 --> 01:28:26,240
Speaker 1: Like that was like the first like hunt, wow, one

1717
01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:29,720
Speaker 1: hundred dollars to see the Eagles because oh I would

1718
01:28:29,720 --> 01:28:33,960
Speaker 1: see Metallica in high school for twenty five bucks. Yeah,

1719
01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,600
Speaker 1: and then now it has gotten absolutely insane. Is that

1720
01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 1: a cheap ticket now on a concert? One hundred bucks?

1721
01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think so. You're sure not

1722
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,320
Speaker 1: getting in to see Taylor Swift for one hundred bucks anyway,

1723
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:49,080
Speaker 1: not even behind the jumbo tron, right, nothing. So that

1724
01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:53,040
Speaker 1: is I mean, we're covering, We're covering some of the

1725
01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:58,200
Speaker 1: the coolest, funnest things that we do is NFL games, movies,

1726
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:01,320
Speaker 1: ohing is fun as it used to be. I would

1727
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:05,200
Speaker 1: also say I saw the eclip recently. I've seen before,

1728
01:29:05,240 --> 01:29:07,880
Speaker 1: but it was like like a flashback to like Woodstock

1729
01:29:08,040 --> 01:29:10,280
Speaker 1: ninety nine, and it was just great looking on the crowd.

1730
01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:13,040
Speaker 1: Nobody had a phone out, No one was they go

1731
01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:16,240
Speaker 1: to concert. Everyone's filming it and they got the stop

1732
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:22,080
Speaker 1: stop but yeah, yeah, yeah, had no issues. But it

1733
01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:25,559
Speaker 1: wasn't selfies, right, it was exactly Yeah, people are now

1734
01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:29,720
Speaker 1: out there documenting the concert as if you were some

1735
01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:35,320
Speaker 1: documentary filmmaker the phone, put it away and missed the moment. Yeah, exactly,

1736
01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:40,320
Speaker 1: Let's go to Let's go to Alexandria and talk to Ross.

1737
01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:42,800
Speaker 1: Ross fire away going on.

1738
01:29:42,880 --> 01:29:48,160
Speaker 10: Fellas, same old buddy. I was thinking about the American

1739
01:29:48,240 --> 01:29:50,320
Speaker 10: Music Awards, man. I used to look forward to them

1740
01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:53,400
Speaker 10: coming out every year. I mean, each had their own

1741
01:29:53,479 --> 01:29:56,920
Speaker 10: genre and music. Now everybody you can't tell what they're doing,

1742
01:29:57,320 --> 01:30:01,120
Speaker 10: and it's all politically motivated. Everybody's got to make and

1743
01:30:01,240 --> 01:30:03,000
Speaker 10: I just don't get any enjoyment out of it.

1744
01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:05,040
Speaker 1: I'm with you because I remember that. I remember like

1745
01:30:05,080 --> 01:30:08,640
Speaker 1: the VMA's was the thing, and yeah, you watch that

1746
01:30:08,640 --> 01:30:10,559
Speaker 1: because you get to see some great live I mean,

1747
01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:12,960
Speaker 1: part of it for me is that there's not a

1748
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:17,240
Speaker 1: ton of acts, these current acts that I'm dying to see.

1749
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:18,880
Speaker 1: What you're right, you know, you're going to turn it

1750
01:30:18,920 --> 01:30:20,960
Speaker 1: on and somebody's got to make a statement about something

1751
01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:22,280
Speaker 1: that it's it's rooted, right.

1752
01:30:22,320 --> 01:30:26,840
Speaker 10: Yep, it's it's just it's not when Dick Clark was

1753
01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:29,200
Speaker 10: in charge of one first about I mean, it was

1754
01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:31,800
Speaker 10: everybody was talking about, you know, hey, so and so

1755
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:34,519
Speaker 10: is going to be on the American Music Awards and this,

1756
01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:36,240
Speaker 10: that and the other, and everybody was hyped up to

1757
01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:39,280
Speaker 10: see it, and now there's just nobody to hype anything

1758
01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:42,599
Speaker 10: up anymore. It's all blended together. It just makes no sense.

1759
01:30:43,240 --> 01:30:46,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, Ross, Thank you very much. I couldn't

1760
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:49,280
Speaker 1: agree more. Uh, let's get a female perspective on this's

1761
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:51,759
Speaker 1: got a green field and talk to Amy Amy fire Away.

1762
01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:55,920
Speaker 25: Hey, this is on a completely different level from what

1763
01:30:55,960 --> 01:30:58,160
Speaker 25: everybody else was talking about. Although I agree with a

1764
01:30:58,200 --> 01:31:05,080
Speaker 25: lot of those high renaissance festival interesting explain, Well, we

1765
01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:08,519
Speaker 25: went for years and it's always been fairly woke, which

1766
01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:08,840
Speaker 25: is fine.

1767
01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:10,120
Speaker 10: We had no problem with any of that.

1768
01:31:10,840 --> 01:31:17,080
Speaker 25: It's just the crowd now is so many people, and

1769
01:31:17,120 --> 01:31:19,200
Speaker 25: the people that are coming now are not the same

1770
01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:22,440
Speaker 25: type of crowd that used to be. They're not frequenting

1771
01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:26,160
Speaker 25: the shops. They're spending money on beer, sure, if they're

1772
01:31:26,200 --> 01:31:29,400
Speaker 25: not frequenting the shops which we loved so much, and

1773
01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:32,559
Speaker 25: half of those I know for a fact that six

1774
01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:35,240
Speaker 25: of the shops that we went to every year as

1775
01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:39,880
Speaker 25: of the last two years are not there anymore. They're

1776
01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:42,120
Speaker 25: not spending the money in the shops anymore. They're just

1777
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:46,320
Speaker 25: doing their parade up and down with their furry costumes

1778
01:31:46,520 --> 01:31:50,200
Speaker 25: and stuff like that, and they're not spending money in

1779
01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:52,240
Speaker 25: the shops, and the shops can't afford to be there

1780
01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:53,320
Speaker 25: if they're not gonna make money.

1781
01:31:54,280 --> 01:31:56,720
Speaker 1: And this is great, So I wonder what the issue is.

1782
01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,160
Speaker 1: I guess it's is it people? Yeah, they just want

1783
01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:02,000
Speaker 1: to dress up and you know, take some pictures of

1784
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,719
Speaker 1: you know what this is going on instead of supporting

1785
01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:06,880
Speaker 1: what the cause is there?

1786
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:09,920
Speaker 25: Huh, Well, they started letting more people in. They do

1787
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:12,080
Speaker 25: the tickets a little different, They started letting a lot

1788
01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:17,320
Speaker 25: more people in. They have expanded their space some for

1789
01:32:17,640 --> 01:32:20,960
Speaker 25: more boots. But the booths are, like I said, they're

1790
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,920
Speaker 25: selling you know, furry costumes and it's not the same.

1791
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:26,599
Speaker 25: A lot of it has absolutely nothing.

1792
01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:27,240
Speaker 2: To do with renaissance.

1793
01:32:27,760 --> 01:32:31,800
Speaker 25: Uh, just basically so people can dress and express their self,

1794
01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 25: which is again I don't have a problem with.

1795
01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:36,439
Speaker 40: I have a problem if they're going to do that.

1796
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:38,400
Speaker 25: If we shop in the shop so that people can

1797
01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:42,680
Speaker 25: afford to be a vendor there, they're choosing to go elsewhere,

1798
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:45,280
Speaker 25: and half the good vendors are not there anymore.

1799
01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:48,920
Speaker 1: Well probably, and Amy, thank you. Probably It's like, yeah,

1800
01:32:48,960 --> 01:32:51,600
Speaker 1: people see stuff they like and they're like, oh, I

1801
01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:53,960
Speaker 1: can find this on Amazon a lot cheaper, you know,

1802
01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:56,920
Speaker 1: which is unfortunate because that's why you say it's it's

1803
01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,439
Speaker 1: always unfairly woke, is what she said? No, no, she

1804
01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:04,080
Speaker 1: should fairly I forget she did not say what okay,

1805
01:33:04,280 --> 01:33:06,560
Speaker 1: So it's just kind of a different, different kind of

1806
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:09,559
Speaker 1: crowd people that were really into it but would go

1807
01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:11,840
Speaker 1: and buy stuff. You know what, you know, what else

1808
01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:15,000
Speaker 1: ain't what it used to be? What you see basketball? Oh,

1809
01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:19,360
Speaker 1: there you go. We talked about that last week right

1810
01:33:19,360 --> 01:33:23,160
Speaker 1: on cue there it is. Let's go to uh Florence

1817
01:33:40,560 --> 01:33:43,720
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah. And look it's it's a money maker thing,

1818
01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:47,000
Speaker 1: but they're they're you know, making you do the work

1819
01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:49,840

1821
01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:55,920
Speaker 10: To self checkout, but you have to wait and self

1822
01:33:56,000 --> 01:34:00,000
Speaker 10: check out because they don't expand that much, right money

1823
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:01,240

1827
01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:11,559
Speaker 1: Right? I remember, I mean you used to go to

1828
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:14,240
Speaker 1: a grocery store. There'd be someone would check your food out,

1829
01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:17,000
Speaker 1: someone would bag back in your grocery cart.

1830
01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:19,840
Speaker 4: I bet my kids don't even like what's that. I

1831
01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:22,280
Speaker 4: remember growing up and like my grandma would give a

1832
01:34:22,320 --> 01:34:25,040
Speaker 4: tip to the the the guy or the gal that

1833
01:34:25,080 --> 01:34:26,280
Speaker 4: would bag your groceries.

1834
01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:29,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you ask, they would probably even walk

1835
01:34:29,200 --> 01:34:32,360
Speaker 1: it out to your car for you. Yep, that just changed.

1836
01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:34,479
Speaker 1: These are great, great calls people. Let's go to a

1837
01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:36,679
Speaker 1: Milford and talk to Larry. Larry fire away.

1838
01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:39,719
Speaker 10: Hey, Ron, I'll keep it simple.

1839
01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:42,880
Speaker 5: I'm an old guy who time order cable had a

1840
01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:44,839
Speaker 5: big wire attached to the back.

1841
01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:52,519
Speaker 10: Of the TV and you had the box too much crap.

1842
01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:54,120
Speaker 8: Just make it simple.

1843
01:34:55,120 --> 01:34:57,920
Speaker 1: I agree with you. You could pick up the remote

1844
01:34:58,000 --> 01:34:59,920
Speaker 1: and uh and thank you very much.

1845
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:00,240
Speaker 31: Arry.

1846
01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:03,880
Speaker 1: What about Rabbit here is Larry? Yeah, but it's like

1847
01:35:04,640 --> 01:35:06,599
Speaker 1: I hate because you know you know, you gotta log in,

1848
01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:09,479
Speaker 1: you got to enter a password in and then you

1849
01:35:09,560 --> 01:35:11,200
Speaker 1: know there's all these choices. I feel like there's too

1850
01:35:11,240 --> 01:35:13,040
Speaker 1: many Netflix, there's too many choices.

1851
01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:15,320
Speaker 4: I got to click away from something if I want

1852
01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:18,080
Speaker 4: to watch this this streaming service. I'll tell you what

1853
01:35:18,120 --> 01:35:22,200
Speaker 4: if someone could invent uh at a screen that they

1854
01:35:22,280 --> 01:35:25,320
Speaker 4: all come into and you could scroll through them all

1855
01:35:25,400 --> 01:35:26,799
Speaker 4: without having to click away.

1856
01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're just automatically went from Netflix to Hulu

1857
01:35:30,240 --> 01:35:35,599
Speaker 1: or to whatever the regular TV. Yeah again that man,

1858
01:35:35,920 --> 01:35:38,960
Speaker 1: they did have that invention. It was called cable where

1859
01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:42,799
Speaker 1: you could get multiple shows that people didn't like it quickly.

1860
01:35:42,880 --> 01:35:45,920
Speaker 1: Let's go to Dirk and Morrow Morrow, Yeah, Dirk fire

1861
01:35:45,920 --> 01:35:46,479
Speaker 1: away please.

1862
01:35:47,720 --> 01:35:48,280
Speaker 16: Yeah, guys.

1863
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,639
Speaker 26: When I was a kid, I really always look forward

1864
01:35:50,640 --> 01:35:54,000
Speaker 26: to going to an amusement park, you know, for the day,

1865
01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 26: and and it was affordable. It was a lot of fun, uh,

1866
01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:00,559
Speaker 26: particularly like the smaller ones, like used to be one

1867
01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:03,719
Speaker 26: called the Swardsville Lake or going out to Old Coney

1868
01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:06,040
Speaker 26: and they had some rides that you could, you know,

1869
01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:09,360
Speaker 26: get busted up on and get hurt. But nowadays it's

1870
01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:13,960
Speaker 26: so expensive. Yeah, I mean give me the wild mouse again.

1871
01:36:14,400 --> 01:36:16,960
Speaker 26: I mean that that thing would give you whiplager as

1872
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:20,759
Speaker 26: an adult, but you can't afford to buy a drink

1873
01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:25,040
Speaker 26: or eat there. The lines are, you know, two hours

1874
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:27,800
Speaker 26: for a for a five minute ride, if it's even

1875
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:31,000
Speaker 26: that long, and and that's just not fun for me.

1876
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:35,280
Speaker 26: Maybe it's because I'm an adult, but I tell me

1877
01:36:35,320 --> 01:36:35,719
Speaker 26: I'm wrong.

1878
01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:38,400
Speaker 1: No, it's a good call. And George, thank you. I

1879
01:36:38,720 --> 01:36:41,799
Speaker 1: saw something the other day online. This guy was talking.

1880
01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:44,400
Speaker 1: Now he took it was a family of like five, right,

1881
01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:47,639
Speaker 1: which is I'm a family five, And he said he

1882
01:36:47,760 --> 01:36:52,680
Speaker 1: took he flew his family first class to France for

1883
01:36:52,840 --> 01:36:56,000
Speaker 1: less money than it took to go to Disney World

1884
01:36:56,200 --> 01:37:00,160
Speaker 1: for a weekend. And that is exorbitantly expensive. I mean,

1885
01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:02,200
Speaker 1: you can't get out of there for you know, I

1886
01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:04,799
Speaker 1: mean it's thousands of dollars to go down there. Apparently

1887
01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:08,760
Speaker 1: not good. Wow, Yeah, some great calls, folks. That was

1888
01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:11,200
Speaker 1: a great topic. Thank you very much for your participation.

Speaker 1: these these lines for tsa out by some of these

1917

Speaker 1: airports Houston, I know one in particular, growing larger and larger,

1918
01:38:30,520 --> 01:38:33,680
Speaker 1: two three four hours sometimes to get through this, and

1919
01:38:34,120 --> 01:38:35,519
Speaker 1: what are we going to do about it? Here with

1920
01:38:35,640 --> 01:38:39,719
Speaker 1: more on that is our good friend from ABC, Alex Stone. Alex,

1921
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:40,720
Speaker 1: what is the latest here?

1922
01:38:41,600 --> 01:38:45,400
Speaker 30: Yeah, So this week TSA officers they got their first

1923
01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:49,519
Speaker 30: zero dollar paycheck of this government shutdown. It was only

1924
01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:51,280
Speaker 30: a couple of months ago that they were dealing with

1925
01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:54,920
Speaker 30: this before, and that the paycheck that they would have

1926
01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:57,840
Speaker 30: gotten did get several weeks ago that only had about

1927
01:38:57,880 --> 01:39:00,640
Speaker 30: ten percent of their pay in it. They done on

1928
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:03,360
Speaker 30: when this shutdown started versus when they were going to

1929
01:39:03,360 --> 01:39:05,519
Speaker 30: get paid, So they got a ten percent paycheck, which

1930
01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:07,640
Speaker 30: wasn't a lot of money, and then now they just

1931
01:39:07,720 --> 01:39:10,920
Speaker 30: got their first to zero percent paycheck this week. But

1932
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:13,600
Speaker 30: they're TSA officers, and we've heard from a bunch of

1933
01:39:13,640 --> 01:39:15,360
Speaker 30: them today they're just saying this is getting silly, that

1934
01:39:15,720 --> 01:39:17,519
Speaker 30: they don't make a ton of money, and over and

1935
01:39:17,560 --> 01:39:20,000
Speaker 30: over again they're the ones not getting paid. That this

1936
01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:23,520
Speaker 30: is affecting only the Department of Homeland Security, as Democrats

1937
01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:27,439
Speaker 30: are blocking funding for DHS over immigration enforcement. But the

1938
01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:30,920
Speaker 30: thing is that ICE agents that as law enforcement, they

1939
01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:33,960
Speaker 30: continue to get paid during a government shutdown. So really,

1940
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:36,439
Speaker 30: this is the TSA, which is under the Department of

1941
01:39:36,439 --> 01:39:41,559
Speaker 30: Homeland Security, paying the price for what this fight is.

1942
01:39:41,600 --> 01:39:44,599
Speaker 30: It doesn't even involve them, and so they're saying, look,

1943
01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:47,280
Speaker 30: this is not our fight and we're not getting paid.

1944
01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:51,200
Speaker 30: And now we're getting new numbers that Houston Hobby they're

1945
01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:54,479
Speaker 30: about fifty five percent of their TSA officers are calling out,

1946
01:39:54,720 --> 01:39:57,360
Speaker 30: at least they did over the weekend calling out sick. Atlanta,

1947
01:39:57,760 --> 01:40:00,720
Speaker 30: New York, JFK, New Orleans they have high call out

1948
01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:04,439
Speaker 30: rates as well. Three hundred and sixty six TSA officers

1949
01:40:04,479 --> 01:40:06,120
Speaker 30: as of to day have just flat quit in the

1950
01:40:06,160 --> 01:40:08,559
Speaker 30: last couple of days, saying enough they can go to

1951
01:40:08,600 --> 01:40:11,880
Speaker 30: Amazon or fast food in some cases and make more money.

1952
01:40:11,920 --> 01:40:14,160
Speaker 30: And I have to deal with all of this. And now,

1953
01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:18,240
Speaker 30: like Austin, some airports have really long security lines every

1954
01:40:18,320 --> 01:40:20,720
Speaker 30: day because they just can't staff it. So many are

1955
01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:23,840
Speaker 30: calling out sick, and they're saying, look, find a way

1956
01:40:23,880 --> 01:40:29,080
Speaker 30: to pay the TSA officers because they're not law enforcement,

1957
01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:31,800
Speaker 30: they don't have that car about and they're once again

1958
01:40:31,880 --> 01:40:32,599
Speaker 30: not getting paid.

1959
01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:36,760
Speaker 1: Is this look like this is everybody's dug in here,

1960
01:40:36,880 --> 01:40:39,800
Speaker 1: or is there a little little light in the crack

1961
01:40:39,920 --> 01:40:43,360
Speaker 1: here that this is going to end relatively soon? Is

1962
01:40:43,400 --> 01:40:45,439
Speaker 1: in like the next couple of days, or do you

1963
01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:47,080
Speaker 1: see this going on for a while.

1964
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:49,840
Speaker 30: It doesn't look like it's going to end anytime soon.

1965
01:40:49,920 --> 01:40:52,479
Speaker 30: There is now an effort and some Democrats have actually

1966
01:40:52,560 --> 01:40:56,559
Speaker 30: now said that they disagree with this tactic because TSA

1967
01:40:56,640 --> 01:40:59,360
Speaker 30: officers in this moment, when we are saying we need

1968
01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:02,360
Speaker 30: security to be at a heightened level because of Iran

1969
01:41:02,439 --> 01:41:05,000
Speaker 30: and threats here at the homeland, that this is the

1970
01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:07,640
Speaker 30: time that they've got to move forward with funding to

1971
01:41:07,640 --> 01:41:12,639
Speaker 30: get the TSA funded again. But there is some work

1972
01:41:12,720 --> 01:41:15,040
Speaker 30: underway to try to come up with legislation so the

1973
01:41:15,080 --> 01:41:17,519
Speaker 30: TSA would get paid in a government shutdown, they'd be

1974
01:41:17,560 --> 01:41:21,519
Speaker 30: considered something like law enforcement, but not actually law enforcement.

1975
01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:24,280
Speaker 30: And that's the thing. During the last government shutdown, the

1976
01:41:24,360 --> 01:41:27,519
Speaker 30: FBI continued to get paid, but air traffic controllers didn't,

1977
01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:31,599
Speaker 30: and the TSA didn't then as well. Members of Congress,

1978
01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:34,240
Speaker 30: they've got the carveouts. They always get paid no matter

1979
01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:36,800
Speaker 30: what during any of these shutdowns, but in this one

1980
01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:42,360
Speaker 30: it's very specifically DHS. But because law enforcement has a

1981
01:41:42,360 --> 01:41:44,559
Speaker 30: carve out they continue to get paid where TSA under

1982
01:41:44,640 --> 01:41:48,719
Speaker 30: DHS does not. And we've heard from a bunch today

1983
01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:53,160
Speaker 30: of TSA officers in Atlanta and elsewhere saying they can't

1984
01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:55,680
Speaker 30: afford to put gas in their cars. They're going to

1985
01:41:55,720 --> 01:41:59,840
Speaker 30: food banks now, they're taking donations. Today, the CEOs of

1986
01:41:59,840 --> 01:42:02,600
Speaker 30: the biggest airlines send a letter to Congress demanding that

1987
01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:05,599
Speaker 30: they fund DHS, saying this is putting as we're going

1988
01:42:05,640 --> 01:42:09,160
Speaker 30: into now spring break travel time, and it's starting in

1989
01:42:09,600 --> 01:42:11,479
Speaker 30: some respects and then we'll go over the next couple

1990
01:42:11,520 --> 01:42:14,839
Speaker 30: of weeks, that this is putting air travel and danger

1991
01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:18,639
Speaker 30: security wise, and just the backed up lines that it's

1992
01:42:18,640 --> 01:42:20,960
Speaker 30: going to crumble the air travel system when it's a

1993
01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:23,960
Speaker 30: busy time. That they're saying for a number of reasons,

1994
01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:26,200
Speaker 30: this has got to be fixed, and that the Congress

1995
01:42:26,240 --> 01:42:28,360
Speaker 30: needs to figure it out.

1996
01:42:28,479 --> 01:42:31,280
Speaker 1: I mean, do you think that there. I mean, there's

1997
01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:33,280
Speaker 1: no other work around this, right, they have to get

1998
01:42:33,280 --> 01:42:35,599
Speaker 1: a bill passed or else, right.

1999
01:42:36,320 --> 01:42:37,960
Speaker 30: Yeah, I mean they got to figure it well, or

2000
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:40,280
Speaker 30: they got to just fund DHS. If they could come

2001
01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:42,040
Speaker 30: to a deal to fund it, this would all end

2002
01:42:42,080 --> 01:42:44,240
Speaker 30: and the TSA officers they would get paid and they

2003
01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:47,519
Speaker 30: would get back pay and then everything's normal again. Now

2004
01:42:47,560 --> 01:42:49,960
Speaker 30: the problem too is they say if they do call

2005
01:42:50,040 --> 01:42:52,240
Speaker 30: out that they get what they call a wall status

2006
01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:54,360
Speaker 30: and then they're docked. So when they do get their

2007
01:42:54,400 --> 01:42:55,880
Speaker 30: back pay, they won't get to pay for the amount

2008
01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:57,800
Speaker 30: of time that they say they didn't have childcare, they

2009
01:42:57,800 --> 01:43:00,760
Speaker 30: didn't have gas, and they couldn't come in. And so

2010
01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:04,200
Speaker 30: the argument that they're making now is that they don't

2011
01:43:04,200 --> 01:43:05,640
Speaker 30: have the money. Most of them don't have a lot

2012
01:43:05,680 --> 01:43:08,760
Speaker 30: of savings, and they're not making a ton to come in.

2013
01:43:08,960 --> 01:43:10,800
Speaker 30: And then they're told, but if you don't come in,

2014
01:43:11,520 --> 01:43:13,639
Speaker 30: you're going to make even less money when we pay

2015
01:43:13,680 --> 01:43:16,479
Speaker 30: you back, and that they get in trouble for not

2016
01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:19,120
Speaker 30: coming to work as they're not getting paid. And I mean,

2017
01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:20,800
Speaker 30: you can imagine if they were telling you you weren't

2018
01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:23,080
Speaker 30: getting paid to day, you might have an incentive not

2019
01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:26,360
Speaker 30: to come in. And they're being told that they'll lose

2020
01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:28,360
Speaker 30: their job, but it's kind of like, well, I'm losing

2021
01:43:28,360 --> 01:43:30,519
Speaker 30: my job, but I'm not getting paid on this job

2022
01:43:30,560 --> 01:43:35,360
Speaker 30: at the moment, So yeah, it the best case scenario,

2023
01:43:35,560 --> 01:43:39,120
Speaker 30: this ends, everything gets funded and then they move forward.

2024
01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:42,559
Speaker 30: Other than that, they would need legislation or something to

2025
01:43:42,600 --> 01:43:44,200
Speaker 30: carve them out as an exception.

2026
01:43:44,600 --> 01:43:47,320
Speaker 1: Well, hopefully sooner rather than later. Alex. We really appreciate

2027
01:43:47,320 --> 01:43:49,439
Speaker 1: your time on this. Thank you, you got it.

2028
01:43:49,479 --> 01:43:50,560
Speaker 11: Thanks thanks.

2029
01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:50,720
Speaker 2: So.

2030
01:43:51,760 --> 01:43:53,960
Speaker 1: I mean, in my opinion, what's going on here is,

2031
01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:57,479
Speaker 1: you know, this is of course a political weapon the

2032
01:43:57,520 --> 01:44:02,559
Speaker 1: Democrats are wielding because they don't want funding from you know,

2033
01:44:02,600 --> 01:44:06,240
Speaker 1: any funding from demartmore Homeland Security to go to ice. Right,

2034
01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:08,880
Speaker 1: all the funding for ice and all the you know,

2035
01:44:08,920 --> 01:44:11,040
Speaker 1: the you know how much that that has been you

2036
01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:13,599
Speaker 1: know increased that that was all part of the big

2037
01:44:13,600 --> 01:44:17,840
Speaker 1: beautiful bill. So no funding is already covered. That's already covered, right,

2038
01:44:18,360 --> 01:44:20,679
Speaker 1: So and they know that, so why so why would

2039
01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:24,000
Speaker 1: they be doing that? Then? I think they want chaos

2040
01:44:24,360 --> 01:44:26,760
Speaker 1: because they know that when you're sitting down and you're

2041
01:44:26,760 --> 01:44:29,920
Speaker 1: looking at that ballot and you go, you know, guys,

2042
01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:31,479
Speaker 1: my life better? Is it worse?

2043
01:44:31,640 --> 01:44:31,720
Speaker 2: Like?

2044
01:44:31,760 --> 01:44:33,040
Speaker 1: How are things in the world?

2045
01:44:33,439 --> 01:44:33,639
Speaker 5: Man?

2046
01:44:33,720 --> 01:44:35,760
Speaker 1: Things are pretty That's so we got Joe Biden, right,

2047
01:44:35,800 --> 01:44:38,000
Speaker 1: it was like God, COVID and all this and things

2048
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:39,479
Speaker 1: are kind of you know what, It's like, let's just

2049
01:44:39,520 --> 01:44:42,599
Speaker 1: go somewhere different. I think that's great. Trip got ruined

2050
01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:43,200
Speaker 1: because of this.

2051
01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:46,320
Speaker 4: My my my family vacated, and you're like that starts

2052
01:44:46,360 --> 01:44:47,799
Speaker 4: to compay r exactly.

2053
01:44:47,920 --> 01:44:50,200
Speaker 1: And and people don't you know, most people don't know

2054
01:44:50,240 --> 01:44:52,400
Speaker 1: the ins and outs and everything I just said of

2055
01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:54,200
Speaker 1: when the funding took place and all this, but like

2056
01:44:54,520 --> 01:44:57,599
Speaker 1: things are chaotic, But it just sucks that they're playing

2057
01:44:57,640 --> 01:45:01,599
Speaker 1: with a lot of people's lives here and their lives hoods. Okay,

2058
01:45:02,280 --> 01:45:04,400
Speaker 1: these t s A workers. I just want to go

2059
01:45:04,400 --> 01:45:07,479
Speaker 1: to work, and they're they're playing right with that.

2060
01:45:07,760 --> 01:45:10,960
Speaker 4: And there's poor folks too, and there's already you know,

2061
01:45:11,040 --> 01:45:13,400
Speaker 4: they got hammered by the shutdown last year too.

2062
01:45:13,439 --> 01:45:15,439
Speaker 1: They were the same kind of thing was happening. They'd

2063
01:45:15,479 --> 01:45:17,760
Speaker 1: come to work. You're not getting paid right now, but

2064
01:45:17,800 --> 01:45:20,240
Speaker 1: you got to come to work, Like what how how

2065
01:45:20,280 --> 01:45:23,479
Speaker 1: how how long would you go to work before, you know,

2066
01:45:23,520 --> 01:45:25,439
Speaker 1: when you weren't getting paid, How long before you would say,

2067
01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:30,479
Speaker 1: I mean a week two maybe maybe you're kind of

2068
01:45:30,520 --> 01:45:34,080
Speaker 1: like okay, let's go yeah, because the.

2069
01:45:33,840 --> 01:45:37,280

2070
01:45:37,280 --> 01:45:38,519
Speaker 4: a tough spot for those folks.

2071
01:45:38,920 --> 01:45:43,559
Speaker 1: In other news, are you a are you a karaoke guy?

2072
01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:43,880
Speaker 10: No?

2073
01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:47,640
Speaker 1: And I feel like, is that is that still a thing? Apparently.

2074
01:45:48,600 --> 01:45:51,479
Speaker 1: Of course, in Florida it is, which is where our

2075
01:45:51,520 --> 01:45:56,080
Speaker 1: story takes place. Of course, so this is let's see

2076
01:45:56,520 --> 01:46:00,120
Speaker 1: blah blah boh. What's this guy's name? Did they give it?

2077
01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:02,599
Speaker 2: Yeah?

2078
01:46:03,120 --> 01:46:07,519
Speaker 1: Aaron Jablonski, thirty five years old, Okay. He was arrested

2079
01:46:07,920 --> 01:46:12,280
Speaker 1: last year following a two thirty am disturbance outside the

2080
01:46:12,360 --> 01:46:18,960
Speaker 1: Overtime Sports Bar. Police reported that Jablonski became incensed upon

2081
01:46:19,040 --> 01:46:22,200
Speaker 1: learning that the bar's karaoke machine was inoperable and he

2082
01:46:22,240 --> 01:46:25,080
Speaker 1: could not come in and sing the song that he

2083
01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 1: planned on singing. Upset about the music, the karaoke enthusiast

2084
01:46:30,360 --> 01:46:34,759
Speaker 1: here mister Jablonski exit of the bar, where James Ermi

2085
01:46:34,880 --> 01:46:39,240
Speaker 1: twenty seven was just a mother like random person, tried

2086
01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:42,200
Speaker 1: to get Jablonsky calm. Apparently this guy he's losing his mind,

2087
01:46:42,240 --> 01:46:45,840
Speaker 1: like melting down, according to the rest affidavit. Instead of

2088
01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:49,160
Speaker 1: cooling off, Jablonski pulls out a glock nine millimeterer from

2089
01:46:49,160 --> 01:46:55,800
Speaker 1: his waistban pointed at the man, saying, I don't blanking care. Jablonski,

2090
01:46:56,160 --> 01:47:01,000
Speaker 1: police report, also fired a round into the air, and

2091
01:47:01,120 --> 01:47:03,760
Speaker 1: even more troublesome for him, it was illegal for him

2092
01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:06,240
Speaker 1: to possess a handgun because his rap she includes a

2093
01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:11,080
Speaker 1: twenty twelve felony conviction. So yeah, all this over carrioke.

2094
01:47:11,280 --> 01:47:14,479
Speaker 1: Karaoke is not that awesome. I know there's some people

2095
01:47:14,479 --> 01:47:16,840
Speaker 1: out there that are like, wow, karaoko, he's great, But

2096
01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:20,120
Speaker 1: is it you get that upset over it?

2097
01:47:21,240 --> 01:47:24,559
Speaker 4: Like I'm just I'm still stuck on the fact that

2098
01:47:24,560 --> 01:47:26,559
Speaker 4: there's still karaoke going on.

2099
01:47:26,760 --> 01:47:28,640
Speaker 1: But You're right, it was I feel like I was

2100
01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:31,320
Speaker 1: fifteen years ago. So it was th people like, that's

2101
01:47:31,360 --> 01:47:34,559
Speaker 1: what you'd I mean, you get together. There's a place

2102
01:47:34,640 --> 01:47:39,000
Speaker 1: downtown Tokyo. Kitty ever gone there? No, we did this

2103
01:47:39,080 --> 01:47:42,599
Speaker 1: about five years ago. Yeah, with with a bunch of friends.

2104
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:44,280
Speaker 1: You like your rent, Like you kind of get a

2105
01:47:44,360 --> 01:47:47,080
Speaker 1: room and there's like a room and it's just like

2106
01:47:47,120 --> 01:47:49,360
Speaker 1: a video thing and it's you put your and you

2107
01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:52,360
Speaker 1: just karaoke with all your friends there. So you have

2108
01:47:52,400 --> 01:47:57,200
Speaker 1: to embarrass yourself in front of everyone's front of your friend.

2109
01:47:57,360 --> 01:47:59,120
Speaker 1: It's like a little lounge room. Yeah, and then the

2110
01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:03,920
Speaker 1: uh you order your drinks and they lower the drinks

2111
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:08,080
Speaker 1: from some machine that's in the ceiling, and uh, it

2112
01:48:08,160 --> 01:48:10,920
Speaker 1: was actually pretty fine. I got admit, like my friends

2113
01:48:10,960 --> 01:48:12,960
Speaker 1: all know this. Like, I had a really good time.

2114
01:48:13,280 --> 01:48:15,840
Speaker 1: It was a lot of fun and it's very uncharacteristic

2115
01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:18,840
Speaker 1: of me to go through something like that. All right,

2116
01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:21,519
Speaker 1: tell the world right now, what song did you sing?

2117
01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:28,840
Speaker 1: There's probably some kind of bon Jovi song. See, if

2118
01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:31,400
Speaker 1: Eddie were here, he would chastise you. But he's not

2119
01:48:31,439 --> 01:48:32,280
Speaker 1: a bon Jovi guy.

2120
01:48:32,960 --> 01:48:35,679
Speaker 4: He hates bon Jovi the way you hate you too, correct,

2121
01:48:36,479 --> 01:48:39,360
Speaker 4: I gotta tell you man, Bono stuck is he's sticking

2122
01:48:39,400 --> 01:48:41,479
Speaker 4: it in there with some political things right now, and

2123
01:48:41,520 --> 01:48:45,000
Speaker 4: I'm like, we've always done he has, but well he's

2124
01:48:45,000 --> 01:48:47,200
Speaker 4: gotten in. I think, did he what was I saw

2125
01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:49,000
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks ago, right he is? He did

2126
01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:53,280
Speaker 4: he stick his nose in on some of the Palestinian stuff?

2127
01:48:53,320 --> 01:48:59,719
Speaker 1: For the course, that's a that's come on topic. But anyway,

2128
01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:01,840
Speaker 1: I I've done carry Oka and I'm trying to think

2129
01:49:01,880 --> 01:49:04,080
Speaker 1: what my song was because I know i've I've well,

2130

01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:08,720
Speaker 1: you did, and you know the rest of the band

2132
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:11,599
Speaker 1: would put my microphone on like one so no one

2133
01:49:11,600 --> 01:49:15,200
Speaker 1: could hear me. Think, what instrument did you play in that? Drums? Drummer?

2134
01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:15,439
Speaker 2: Oh?

2135
01:49:15,479 --> 01:49:18,479
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, I remember another member of that band telling

2136
01:49:18,479 --> 01:49:19,679
Speaker 4: me all about it at one point.

2137
01:49:20,280 --> 01:49:22,559

2139
01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:32,160
Speaker 1: We it was great. But I've also my one of

2140
01:49:32,200 --> 01:49:37,639
Speaker 1: my last weekends in college, I went to this bar, Corby's. Yeah,

2141
01:49:37,920 --> 01:49:40,439
Speaker 1: it was kind of famous up there in in South Bend.

2142
01:49:41,040 --> 01:49:44,519
Speaker 1: And there they had a band and you know or whatever,

01:49:49,280 --> 01:49:52,840
Speaker 1: doors let it roll nice. Oh yeah, that was fun.

2146
01:49:53,240 --> 01:49:55,680
Speaker 1: I'm sure I was terrible, but I enjoyed myself, which

2147
01:49:55,760 --> 01:49:59,400
Speaker 1: is all it matters. That sounds like fun. Carryok. I

2148
01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:03,200
Speaker 1: know I've done I'm not you know, I'm not again.

2149
01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:05,880
Speaker 1: I realize my shortcomings when it comes to us singing.

2150
01:50:05,960 --> 01:50:08,439
Speaker 1: But I know I've done it, but I can't think

2151
01:50:08,479 --> 01:50:13,360
Speaker 1: of the song in other news rock. Yes, I'm meant

2152
01:50:13,360 --> 01:50:14,960
Speaker 1: to ask you this even off the air, but I'll

2153
01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:15,759
Speaker 1: ask you on You're.

2154
01:50:15,640 --> 01:50:18,960
Speaker 4: You're a big flag football guy. Yeah, kids are playing

2155
01:50:19,360 --> 01:50:21,439
Speaker 4: and it's become I keep every time I turn around,

2156
01:50:21,479 --> 01:50:24,240
Speaker 4: I'm like, there's more and more flag football. And you

2157
01:50:24,320 --> 01:50:26,840
Speaker 4: got this big flag football event with all these NFL

2158
01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:29,680
Speaker 4: Joe Burrows selected, you know, schedule to be in it.

2159
01:50:30,400 --> 01:50:32,439
Speaker 1: What do you make of? Are you liking this?

2160
01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 4: It's going to also be a sport in the twenty

2161
01:50:34,520 --> 01:50:37,040
Speaker 4: twenty eight Olympics in La Are you Are you liking

2162
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:41,000
Speaker 4: this emergence? I even saw something where it's it's becoming

2163
01:50:41,040 --> 01:50:43,479
Speaker 4: a big thing where it could potentially maybe even be

2164
01:50:43,520 --> 01:50:44,960
Speaker 4: a high school sport at some point.

2165
01:50:45,000 --> 01:50:48,839
Speaker 1: Hearing that, I look, I in general, I love flag football,

2166
01:50:48,960 --> 01:50:51,560
Speaker 1: especially for for youth kids, because look, it gets you

2167
01:50:51,640 --> 01:50:55,679
Speaker 1: running around, It gets receivers, introduces I mean the way

2168
01:50:55,720 --> 01:50:58,840
Speaker 1: these kids at you know, ten years old now I'll

2169
01:50:58,840 --> 01:51:02,519
Speaker 1: throw and catch the balls unbelievable compared to even when

2170
01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:05,280
Speaker 1: I was ten years old. Some for it for that,

2171
01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:08,920
Speaker 1: but I always look at it as we're using it

2172
01:51:08,960 --> 01:51:11,599
Speaker 1: as a tool to get better at real football. That's

2173
01:51:11,640 --> 01:51:15,479
Speaker 1: just my personal thing. So that's having it become like

2174
01:51:15,560 --> 01:51:18,559
Speaker 1: its own thing. I guess don't have a problem with it.

2175
01:51:18,640 --> 01:51:20,599
Speaker 1: I I I kind of you know, there's a little

2176
01:51:20,760 --> 01:51:23,880
Speaker 1: eye rolling, like okay, you know, because that's kind of

2177
01:51:23,920 --> 01:51:26,080
Speaker 1: what it's becoming. Right, it's a right thing again, if

2178
01:51:26,080 --> 01:51:28,360
Speaker 1: you if you're young and you're even you know, you're

2179
01:51:28,360 --> 01:51:30,559
Speaker 1: in high school. And I mean they had you know,

2180
01:51:30,640 --> 01:51:32,720
Speaker 1: girls flag football term and I watched a little bit

2181
01:51:32,720 --> 01:51:34,439
Speaker 1: of that yesterday. Was it was cool, man, These girls

2182
01:51:34,520 --> 01:51:36,760
Speaker 1: running around catching ball fine and having a good time.

2183
01:51:36,840 --> 01:51:40,759
Speaker 1: It's great. Yeah, when it becomes like an Olympic sport

2184
01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:42,360
Speaker 1: and a couple I don't know. I don't know if all.

2185
01:51:42,640 --> 01:51:45,200
Speaker 4: What I'm wondering about too, is it's it's supposed to

2186
01:51:45,240 --> 01:51:49,960
Speaker 4: be on Fox this this Fanatics Flag Football Classic. Uh,

2187
01:51:50,160 --> 01:51:55,960
Speaker 4: that's coming up. Tom Brady's involved. Is anyone gonna watch it?

2188
01:51:56,040 --> 01:52:00,040
Speaker 1: Like? Is that a good TV sport? I I I

2189
01:52:00,160 --> 01:52:02,639
Speaker 1: think it. I don't know, And that will be interestional.

2190
01:52:03,040 --> 01:52:06,240
Speaker 1: I'm very anxious to see it. I think I'm gonna

2191
01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:08,560
Speaker 1: say it will be because I think who's because of

2192
01:52:08,600 --> 01:52:11,320
Speaker 1: who's in it. I just feel like people who enjoy

2193
01:52:11,400 --> 01:52:15,519
Speaker 1: football now enjoy it less for the hard hitting and

2194
01:52:15,600 --> 01:52:18,400
Speaker 1: the physicality of it and you know all that. I

2195
01:52:18,400 --> 01:52:22,400
Speaker 1: think they enjoy it more because of the the acrobaticness

2196
01:52:22,439 --> 01:52:24,880
Speaker 1: of the catches and the throws and all that. So

2197
01:52:24,920 --> 01:52:27,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a lot of that. So I think

2198
01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:28,800
Speaker 1: it's I think people are going to tune in. I

2199
01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:31,120
Speaker 1: really do. I could could be wrong. I think it

2200
01:52:31,160 --> 01:52:33,920
Speaker 1: may have a like a shelf life, will be kind

2201
01:52:33,920 --> 01:52:36,320
Speaker 1: of really cool for a while, you know, and then

2202
01:52:36,960 --> 01:52:39,599
Speaker 1: does it last. I don't know. I could make a case.

2203
01:52:39,680 --> 01:52:42,559
Speaker 4: No, I just I was curious about I saw ah.

2204
01:52:42,960 --> 01:52:45,040
Speaker 4: I saw a commercial for it the other day on Fox.

2205
01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,080
Speaker 4: I think I was watching the World Baseball Classic. And

2206
01:52:47,080 --> 01:52:50,599
Speaker 4: now I'm like, well, we've done XFL and UFL and

2207
01:52:50,600 --> 01:52:54,160
Speaker 4: none of that stuff's really ever stuck, Like is this anyway?

2208
01:52:54,280 --> 01:52:56,599
Speaker 1: It's just different enough. And look, if you're gonna get

2209
01:52:56,640 --> 01:52:59,000
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow throwing the ball around and some of these guys, yeah,

2210
01:52:59,000 --> 01:52:59,920
Speaker 1: people are gonna watch good.

2211
01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:00,200
Speaker 2: Okay.

2212
01:53:00,240 --> 01:53:02,920
Speaker 1: That's what the UFL and AFL have never been able

2213
01:53:02,960 --> 01:53:05,240
Speaker 1: to do is deliver the star power. And that's what

2214
01:53:05,280 --> 01:53:08,280
Speaker 1: Americans want. They want star power. So yeah, you get

2215
01:53:08,320 --> 01:53:11,120
Speaker 1: some of these guys running around the NFL guys them

2216
01:53:11,160 --> 01:53:14,800
Speaker 1: in the USFL. He was that might have had that right.

2217
01:53:15,120 --> 01:53:17,679
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, now USFL was. I actually really love that

2218
01:53:17,680 --> 01:53:21,240
Speaker 1: that actually made it. Yeah, yeah, I'm kidding. All right,
