forward, look back at significant events and people tied to this particular dating in
history, including but not limited to these. This is the Dayton twenty nine

it's been a week. Have you have you learned anything in the last week
you'd like to impart? I mean this morning. That's a good question,
Gary, Jeff. I'm trying to think. Um, No, I haven't.
Oh wait, yeah I have, yea, I have. Would you
learn uh don't text and drive? You didn't know that before? No,
I did, But I think they rewrote it a law. Right. My
mom sent me a text and they and she said that now it's officially a
law that if you have a phone of any kind or any device anywhere near
your hand. It's a it's a it's a crime. Now, it's how
about that, Well, when you're driving, you should be driving, that's
correct, paying attention to your your little mobile idiot get bucks. I agree,
Yeah, I agree, but I learned it right. Yeah, and
I just I just think it's funny that your mom text you to tell you
that you shouldn't be looking at the text. Yeah, we were both if
you were driving, we were, we were both driving. Right, what's
happening in Let's let's do the Reds update real quick, Jeff. The Reds.
They scored eleven last night against the Athletics. The Athletics are horrendous.
They're the worst team I've ever seen. I can't name a player. Uh
they I mean they are. They are worse than the city that they play
it. They are and they and they will not be playing there for long.
The red The Reds had sixteen hits. Every player that started for the
Reds had at least two hits, except for Spencer Steer Louis he heard,
no, you just went out for six. It's a bad night for him.
I guess. Oh, he got the golden sombrero plus I don't know
how many strikeouts. Yea, I know he was out for six. Well,
well, oh for four? Is the golden sombrero you strike out four
four times? Yea? Correct? Yes, Luis Sessa, he was good
and off, going five innings allowing three runs. He wasn't great. He
only struck out two. But the bullpen they didn't pitch well. They gave
up four runs. We only we gave up seven total. But it was
all right. It was an all right game. It doesn't matter when you
score eleven that. The Reds and A's are back today at four oh seven.
Our coverage begins right here on seven WW at three thirty seven, Hunter
Green will be taking on the struggling Kyle Mueller. Reds are the favorite in
this one. What about the NBA playoffs, Gary, Jeff, I don't
know what about it. The Lakers they destroyed the Grizzlies. They obliterated.
Then that means they move on. That's right, they beat him one twenty
five to eighty five. You're gonna get throttled by the next round's opponent.
But that's what you said this time. No, I didn't say they were
gonna get throttled by the Grizzlies. I thought that Grizzlies could win, but
I didn't say they get throttled by the Grid. They will get throttled the
next round, believe me all right. The Kings, they forced Game seven
with the Warriors. They goodbye to Lebron James forever the King's Force. Game
seven with the Warriors they win last night one eighteen ninety nine. Uh yeah,

And hello to Jay and Lebanon, who's been by the bar Because my other
job is somewhat different than this. My other job is as a bartender.
I've been doing that now for over thirteen years, just to make ends meet.
I believe it was last Saturday. A very nice woman who listens to
this program, walked into the bar in Newport where I work, took one
look at the place, one look at me, and said, no,
you're not him. I know you're not him. I don't know if she
expected me to be in a three piece suit. I mean my Jeane Jack's
at jacket. I've got jeans on, you know, just a shirt that
I'm working at the bar in it's a bar. So my apologies to Nancy
that I did not live up to your expectations of who you thought you might
meet when you listen to me on the radio on Saturday mornings. I understand
that it's difficult to get a an exact idea of who someone is if you've
never met them personally before. You feel like you know them, but then
you see the physical results in the place in which I'm working, and that
just can't be Gary Chaff it was. But I am sorry that you're whatever
conceptions you had were shattered so abruptly and so harshly. So Nancy from Hamilton,
still love you, Still hope you're listening. I understand why you didn't
want to come in, because a lot of nice people don't want to come
into that bar. But a lot of nice people have come into that bar,
and here's one of them right now, Dave from Harrison, Good morning,
Dave, Hey, good morning, Jared. Yes, how we do
it? You're a nice person. You've come into my bar where I'm working.
And I remember the first time I ever met you, and uh,
you know what I thought? And what did you think? Well? I
thought he sound like um, kind of a shorter, roly poly afri American
fellow with freckles and glass Oh you thought I sounded like a roly poly African
American fellow. Yeah, with freckles and glasses. But lo and behold,
I was surprised. Everybody sounds like somebody right, Yeah, I wonder what
people think you sound like. By the way, are you Are you a
grandpa again yet? Or not? Not yet? Not yet? Still hanging
in there Monday at latest? Apparently? Yes. Well, we are praying
for you and your family. Your daughter about to deliver Dave and Cathy,
yet another grandchild. How many will this be? Dave? Uh? Eight?
Eight? Yep, buddy, You know, I don't know what what
other lessons you taught your children, but you definitely taught the multiplication, Yes,
and hopefully some humor too, such as what's the difference between a man
and a dog running? I don't know. Tell me one worse trousers and
the other pants. Um, what do you get when you cross a chili
pepper, a shovel and a chihuahua? A chili pepper, a shovel and
a chihuahua, Tell me why you get a hot diggeted dog? All right,
m A French poodle and a Collie. We're walking down the street and
the poodle turns to the collie and complains, my life is such a mess.
My owners mean, my girlfriend's having an affair with a German shepherd and
I'm a I'm nervous as a cat. So why don't you go see a
psychiatrist, asked Collie. And the poodle says, well, I can't.
He says, I'm not aloud on the couch. Hey, Dave, Yes,
good luck seven WLW Hey kids, Time for another story from Uncle Willie's
Big Book of Great Americans. Today it's William Shraft, a Boston candy maker
who in eighteen sixty one started molding jelly into a small round shapes and then
covered them in a candy shell. The first jelly beans. We're creative Ronald
Reagan loved them so much, and a bowl of them in every room in
the White House. So the next time you gobble up a handful of jelly
beans, thank William Shraft a great American like me. You can be a

today fast seven l W Gary, Jeff Walker with you and our old friend,
old radio Rick is standing by in a Saturday morning Old Radio Rick,
Good morning, how are you? Good morning, Gary, Jeff. I'm
doing great, and so is this wonderful nineteen forty one Montgomery Ward Airline.
Um, this is a console AM shortwave radio has great coverage eleven tubes,
which is a lot that actually has both an RF stage and an extra IF
stage. So it's got three amplifiers for the signal, and boy does it
use them. The paint is peeling off the walls as I'm picking up WLW
five by five loud and clear and uh and just with great sound. No
you see do you see a console? How how large is this? I'm
glad you asked. It's not particularly large. It's not as deep as your
phil go for example, it's only about eleven inches deep, which is fairly
shallow for a lower model. UM, it's thirty nine inches high and about
to see the cross So and General Electric did this as well as the airline
models. They're not. They weren't the bigger, taller, deeper, faster,
prettier, larger dial kind of designs that the Crosley and Zenith tended to
do. UM this status symbols. They're just there's nothing but radio in these
wooden cabinets. Not that it's ugly, it just doesn't look like it would
be blowing the sound up of it that it does, that's remarkable. What
did you have to really is, what did you have to do to this
one to get it into shape? Well, for my part of it,
the poor girl suffered from some probably nineteen fifties slaps slap work by some repairman
that was the wrong word anyways, slipshot work by a repairman that was obviously
in a hurry, and his soldering was pretty bad and some of the parts
just came loose and at the usual um wax based, organic wax based and
organic rubber wire stuff that just dislike us disintegrates over time, so I had
to replace the usual stuff there. But for Marie side of it, the
cabinet was really rough. And not only did she have to put on a
new strip of laminate on the top, which was no small feat, because
the design of the cabinet is so intricate it was really hard to carve it
around all the various curves and bumps and whatever. But also it has these
four black stripes around it and she ended up having get some car striping been
striping to put oh wow. And getting that level was with no small feat.
But man, she first revered. She said, I'm not losing,
he kept saying, and he didn't. I said, I was talking to
U someone off air, Jay from Lebanon, who's been to the bar.
I kind of referenced at top of the hour here, and he said,
you're the reason I get up on Saturday mornings. And he said, and
everybody you know, old radio Rick and the folks from Ripley. So you
know you get mentioned all the time is one of the reasons that people tune
in on Saturday. So I just wanted to let you know that and maybe
it will ease some of the other anxiety that you have. It's inexplicable to
me. Well, thank you very much, and hopefully my head will still
fit to the doorway. All right. Well, it's great to talk to
you as all. You can contact Rick Washburn Old Radio Rick at gmail dot
com if you'd like, and he's here with us most Saturday morning, six
nineteen. Now it's seven DWLW. I'm making a concerted effort to better myself.
That's why I'm finally doing it. I'm learning to speak chimpanzee. That's
also why I listened to Scott Sloan. He's smart, funny and takes on
the topics that affect me and my family. I face the same problem as
you do, so let's talk about him. Can I have a little fun
along the way. That's chimpanzee for Listen to Scott flown. Check out Sloaney

You're in the mid to upper forties, but the mostly cloudy skies.
You're also staying dry for most of your Saturday. As you reach an afternoon
high in the upper sixties. Rain chances though maybe even isolated, storm,
will move in late in the afternoon into the evening hours. Most stay dry,
but some do see that rain. Tonight you drop down to the forties
again, and your Sunday will be much cooler. You only warm up to
the mid to upper fifties. You stay dry in the morning hours, but
rain and increasing showers move in in the afternoon. From your severe weather station,
I'm nine first Warning Meteorologists Cameron Harden on news radio seven hundred WLW seven
hundred of wl JING Sport Elliott, you care about your precious NBA playoffs,
but there was a question you had to know. I was going to ask
you this morning. Any concerns. Here we go our local hockey team competing
for a Kelly Cup. They skated against the Fort Wayne comments last night.
How did the Cyclones do well, Gary Jeff. They hung on to beat
the Comments three to two. They spell the comments with a K, by
the way, I know, and that means the Cyclones take the best of
series. They do not they they they have the lead of the series three.
It's a three game. It's a three game. It's not a it's
not a four game, it's not What are you talking about? First first
team that wins three games wins? I don't know. I think they play
tonight, do they? Yeah? They look it's the best of seven.
They looked at because I thought it was a best of five. No,
they played tonight at six pm. Okay, so they're skating tonight again in
Fort Wayne. Yes, so they will. So they will be looking to
wrap up the series tonight. They're up three to one. So how about
that. Do you know how ugly the hockey fans are in Fort Wayne?
It's awful. They can't believe that they can even play in front of them.
Yeah. What about the NFL Draft? You've been following that, Gary
Jeff? Uh, yeah, a little bit. The Bengals did not select
the tight end out of Notre dame that I am from cubcalf who I hope
they would. In the first round, they went to defense. In fact,
all three picks or defensive, that's right. So we started with Miles
Murphy. It was. It was a complete shocker. Nobody expected that one,
okay, and they elected to stay with the defense. DJ Turner,
cornerback from Michigan was their second pick of the draft. And then they traded
with the Chiefs up three picks ninety five to ninety two to get the safety
from Alabama, Jordan Battle. So all three defensive picks here, Bengals.
Still I love me some Jordan Battle. Now come on, uh, Bengals.
Uh need still need to running backs, still need a tight end.
So those are some key areas there. Uh. Some MLB scores real quick
from last night. Blue Jays they beat the Mariners three two Guardians they cruised
past the Red Sox five two. No, hey, now on for now
on in less it's the Reds. Yeah, if you're gonna give other MLB
scores, just give the scores. But okay, but okay, I'll do
that, But what about this one? So the Rays they beat the White
Sox three to the White Sox have now lost nine in a row and eleven
of their last twelve. A horrible franchise there. I don't care, all
right, this game for nothing, and then and then the game after that.
Five two? All right, thank you, elliot, You're welcome.
It's a comprehensive sports report there. Twenty six minutes after the hours seven.
So all right. The newest amount of craziness that's being driven into the spotlight
by the trans community is something called transableism. By the way, whoever sent
me this, thanks for sending me this. This Fox News report on this
really troubling trend in American society. We've gone from the dysphoria and the confusion,
the middle illness that is transgenderism, to now people who have something called
body integrity identity disorder, which is a psychological term. Well, they've changed
bid BID, a psychological to a physiological issue called transableism. These are when
people I'm I'm not kidding about this. You may have seen this. This
is when a person identifies as handicapped even though there's nothing physically wrong with them.
Body identity integrity identity disorder has been relabeled to transableism to align with today's
trans community. According to some, the point of changing the identifier from a
psychiatric condition to an advocacy term is to harness the stunning cultural power of gender
ideology to the cause of allowing doctors to treat patients by amputating healthy limbs,
snipping spinal cords, or destroying eyesight. Nothing wrong with these people except in
their brain, exactly like transgenderism. When did we slip into this rabbit hole?
And seemingly there's no way to climb out except just to point out the
idiocy of it? And that's what I will continue to do at every single
turn, not playing their game. What's passing for news? Just ahead,
Hey, it's my legger with my guy John from Window World. John.

wonderful. It sounds like this starts again at nine am. And this
is to benefit the Alzheimer's Association there locally in Ripley. And what was the
other memorial honoree of this walk, Lisa? Who was that? It was
for a local gentleman that passed away in last year or two named Jeff ORMs,
and this is for his memorial scholarship. He was a real good guy,
all right, fantastic and anybody can join in if you're in the Ripley
area, there are along Main Street and you want to donate or walk or
whatever. Nine am this morning. Gang, It's always good to talk to
you. Thank you, have a great weekend. Bye the gang in Ripley
real quick, Tom and Dayton. Tom, before we get to Steve Fromentina's
fifthy Phone Call of the Week, you had a question about the story that
I read just before the news at the bottom of the hour about transableism.
Yes, sir, what do you want am I to understand? Am I
to understand that if I go to a therapist and tell the therapists that I
am going contemplating hurting myself or others, I can be committed for a seventy
two hour watch. But if I go and ask a doctor to amputate a
functional limb or damage a sensory organ, my insurance company will pay for that.
I don't know about your insurance company, but it is a thing.
It's a real thing people are identifying. People are identifying as being handicapped,
and they're calling it transableism. You know, Tom, It's no different than
convincing a nine or ten or eleven year old boy or girl to mutilate themselves
genetically. That's well, that's what's going on in this country right now.
So it's not too far a stretch, Okay, Gary Jeff? Can I
just add one more thing? Sure? Shout out to all the brown bow
vines and all the black Angus bo vines in Brown County. Thank you,

Ronald Reagan's eleventh commandment, thou shalt not speak evil of thy fellow Republican.
You're killing theirselves and the party at dummies. Now that I got that
out of my chest. Knowing at age seventy three, when he was running
for a second term, Ronald Reagan knew that his age might be attacked.
In his nineteen eighty four debates with opponent Walter Mondale, where you're going,
Yeah, the Gipper disarmed his opponents when he said, I will not make
age an issue in this campaign. I am not going to exploit for political
purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience. It even got a laugh from Mondale.
Can you imagine Biden being that sharp if he's ever asked how he defends his
obvious metal deterioration. This week, a six year old kid in the audience
had to tell him that he was in Ireland ten days earlier. He couldn't
remember. Okay, I got that out of my system. As reported earlier
this week on the Big One, this story is so good I have to
repeat it. Although our friend in Indianapolis gives us some great ones, doesn't
he In India, that's east of Indiana, and eighty two year old gentlemen
literally died while urinating on railroad tracks. No, he was not hit by
a train. The train hit a cow that then pancake the pisser. You
can find this picture in the Dictionary next to karma. Cows are sacred in
India, but not McDonald's. Former NBA champion player and coach Phil Jackson says
he doesn't watch the NBA anymore because of all the political sloganeering that you have
to put up with mega dinos. Phil CBS started this crap, or I
think with those Jesus messages. Yeah, you know, if you've got to
quote Jesus, who would you do it accurately? You remember during the Super
Bowl they flooded us with that stuff and some people were dumb enough to look
at it say, oh, wow, they love Jesus. No they don't
be. One of the slogans was this is so outrageously stupid. I can't
imagine if Jesus didn't want us to act like adults. Really Apostle Paul one,
Corinthians, thirteen eleven. When I was a child, I spoke like
a child. I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. Thank you.
Another jerking around with Jesus sports moment. Jesus loves the people you hate.
No, here's the truth. Jesus was quite judgmental on hate. His philosophy
was love the sinner, but hate the sin with a passion. My favorite
in this regard as Matthew three eleven I'm sorry three seven speaking of Jesus.
When he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said,
to them, you brood of fipers. Did Jesus judge? May I
use a theological term? Hell? Yes, Jesus's message was loved good,
hate evil with a passion the righteously hateful Jesus. By the way, second
favorite of mind is his comment about the lukewarm church's at Leodesia. That's in
Revelation. He said, I vomit them from my mouth. Oh I love
that. And by the way, in this last minute or seconds we have
democrats will throw Biden under the bus for only one reason, the fear that
they won't be able to steal enough votes this time to get him over the
top. They've got Gavin Newson in the wings. He's young, he's good
looking, and he's from another crime family, the Pelosi crime family. They
don't lose a step here. Biden's policies are exactly what Democrats socialists love.
They don't love him because they think he's a loser now and they're really really
scared that all of their gains will be lost. Oh my gosh. Remember
this is the party that is totally united behind socialist policies, unanimous votes in
Congress. Always just remember that, folks, And getting back to the Republicans.
I'm getting fed up with the Trump and the Santa. Stop stop it
now. Hey there's Larry Elder. Maybe I can vote for him, Gary,
Jeff, all right, Steve, thank you very much for that.
The Trump to Santa's thing. I just I'm not paying any attention to I'm
really not, And if you are, maybe you're thinking too too much about
this. It's a political campaign. Do you remember the last time Donald Trump
was involved in a contended political primary campaign? And all of the name calling
and all of the that's what made some people absolutely hate Donald Trump. I
just saw it for what it was. He was trolling people and separate himself
from the other candidates. And there's some pretty good separation between Donald Trump and
Ron De Santis. I'm not sure at this point which side I will step
on, but as long as the policies that Donald Trump pursued when he was
in office remain intact, I'm for either. Guy six fifty four sevenlw DLG

Next update at seven thirty News Radio seven hundred WLW News twenty four hours a
day. It was a Radio seven hundred wl W into another hour of the
Saturday morning edition for Saturday, April twenty nine, twenty twenty three. Gary
Jeff Walker, Hey, that's me and you well good, good to talk
to you this morning, seven h seven on a Saturday together. It's time
for a little environmental update, and that means we turn to our retired environmental
engineers, Steve Schulte, who tells us that it's really going pretty good better
all the time, as a matter of fact, not worse. Steve,
Good morning. How about the latest on evs because that's all we hear about
these days? Good morning, Gary, Jeff. Uh, Yeah, a
couple several things quick hits here. I don't know if you saw it,
but several weeks ago, Ford recently announced that it's twenty twenty two EV division
lost and estimated two point one billion dollars. That's with a B, which
for those folks in Bevis is two thousand, one hundred million dollars. Someone
estimated that this loss that the per EV sold by Ford was a loss of
thirty four thousand dollars per vehicle sold. So how can they continue to stay
in business is the question government. It was offset by a ten billion dollars
operating profit with its internal combuction and fleet past. But the same thing is
for those who bought uh Fords new Fords during the twenty twenty two is not
only were they forced to subsidize ebs through their taxes, uh there, they
subsidize evs through their new forward purchase. So but you know, in a
sense it's sad because but at the same time we're told time and time again
all the it's the green new deal will be good for the economy. And
it was also related. Last week, we're with friends of ours and on
their cell phone during during this time they be a Facebook. They got they
notice from a friend of theirs that these friends Chevy Volts. I don't know
what year, but the Chevy volt needed a new battery twenty six thous and
dollars twenties thousand dollars. It's amazing also and then last now this comes from
National Review, but the headline says, the government's own numbers show Biden's ev
mandate is crazy. And the what they're talking about the Energy Information Administration,
which is the statistical arm as. The Department of Energy published its twenty twenty
three Annual Energy Outlook this past March. So somebody wants to read that document.
You know, it's available, and there's a lot of things in it,
but we're just gonna talk a couple of two things. The report says
that the US electric generation capacity will roughly double in two thousand by two thousand
and fifty to meet the growing demand for power. I've seen this number of
places. So the report says, back in twenty twenty two, the mix
of electric generation capacity was forty three percent for oil and gas, seventeen percent
for coal, twelve percent per win, ten percent solar, eight percent nuclear,
with the remainder being by hydro geothermal. In its reference scenario for two
thousand and fifty, the baseline forecast, it projects oil and gas capacity will
increase by forty eight percent and still make up thirty percent of the capacity.
So much for net zero even by twenty thirty or thirty five. But here
it is on the evs, Gary Jeff. The same report projects says that
the evs are currently six point four percent of the market share. By two
thousand and fifty, it projects, and it's baseline, evs will only be
eighteen point seven percent of market share, and even in the most stream scenario,
evs will be twenty eight point five percent of new car sales by twenty
fifty. The EPA yesterday so that this was again several weeks ago, says
it wants the ev market share to be sixty seven percent by twenty thirty two.
Not not happening, Steven, obviously listen, I'm sorry, his right
hand doesn't know what it's left. Dan is doing, of course not.
And we're talking about Joe Biden too. Um, yeah, you know what
it's It's either these people are crazy or they're stupid, or both. But
those are the only explanations. No Dutch amazing. Thirty seven year old man
took his date to the movies, but instead of watching the film, he
claims she texted friends the whole time. He suited her for breaking theater rules
and ruining his movie watching experience. No Dutch just as amazing are Eddie and

Chris to two point zero and Brooksy, I hope you're the cat dog.
Is he awake or not? Hello? Brooks. Time to get physical
with the dawn of the Costallano Fitness Family. Rocco Costilano train with Rocco.
Now, Rocco, let me ask you this. When when people work out,
do they do they wear Olivia's headband and her workout clothes. When you
go to train with Rocco at five nineteen Mandison Avenue in Covington, do you
do you get physical? You're not allowed to do that this early in the
morning. So you're gonna you're gonna you're gonna talk to me about sneaky chemicals
that they that they put in foods that we don't know about, like one.
Yeah. So so let me kind of preface this. Even though we
have a short time. My son went to school right and in his in
his lunch um, in his friend's lunch box, there was skittles, right,
and I don't allow my kids to eat skittles and like stall bursts and
like Little Debbies cakes because they have a chemical cult titanium dioxide which has been
known to cause brain issues and liver issues and healing. And he said,
he said to his friend, your mother is given your pison. That's great
and and so so the teacher right to tell them that that it wasn't poison,
but it really is poison. Titanium dioxide is poison. And there was
a lawsuit back in a July and August about skills being unfit for human consumption.
The lawsuit has been dropped since then, but titanium dioxide actually does cause
issues. And now the Mars company, because the people dropped the lawsuit,
are going to be within the next five years, uh, takeaway all of
the nanotechnology chemicals. And that's the really big thing is that other's food companies
that are using what's called a nanotechnology and like titanium dioxide to create antium and
I caking stuff or to make things um the color white. Right, And
there's uh. And there's another chemical that no one knows about, very very
few people know about. And it's called, uh, it's called a dicedo.
That diceto is the chemical that they put in microwave popcorn that makes it
taste buttery so that there's no when the whole low fat, don't e fat
thing happened. Um, they would use these nanochemicals to make it taste like
there's a lot of a nanochemicals in in the fake vegan processed foods to make
it taste like meat or taste like you know, whatever it's supposed to taste
like. So if you want, if you want buttery popcorn, buy yourself
some kernels, pop it yourself and put the butter on yourself, right,
that would be really really helpful. Yes, absolutely, but no one wants
to do that, and so they use a diceto. Do you know how
Rocco, Do you understand how much microwave popcorn I've eaten in the last twenty
years and not knowing that I was getting this crap in my body. Well,
but that's the reason why I wanted to talk to you about this,
because so many people have eaten microwave popcorn. When I was young, when
microwave popcorn when, um, you know when A Red and Bocca When although
A Red and Bocca first came out with the microwave popcorn, it was it
was like the biggest thing, you know, since a sliced bread. Yeah,
you know, microwave popca. Listen, Rocco. Interesting, interesting discussion
of unfortunately we run out of time. Oh but of course, but so,
I mean I always hated skittles. I always thought they were unfit for
human consumption. Now I have confirmation from you, and I'm gonna have to
change my my popcorn. Guye, I'm gonna go back to buying colonels,
getting some good old canola oil. Put that stuff in a pot and let
it pop, and then pour my own damn butter up or olive oiled.
That would be better, very very low low heating point with olive oil.
Okay, man, thank you. Check check train with Roco dot com if
you want to find out more. From the Dawn of the Costellano Fitness Family

the Cyclones won previously, and they are going after another Kelly Cup right now.
And it sounds like they're doing swimmingly well on the ice. Yes,
last night they beat the comments with a k They beat him three to two,
and they will look to end the series tonight at six pm. Clones
lead the series three to one. About that, Yeah, uh, FC
Cincinnati, Gary, Jeff, I know you're the biggest soccer fan in the
world, absolute grass ferries. Uh. Coming off coming off a win against
the Portland Timbers last Saturday, the orangin Blue will take uh take on the
New England Revolution at seven thirty in Gillette Stadium. Are they the FC Cincinnati
people's are they? Are they like in first place? Yeah? I think
they're first in the Eastern Eastern. That's pretty strong Eastern quadrant, the Eastern.
Could I remember when they couldn't win a match? That's that first year
in the MLS. Yeah, just like, oh yeah, I still think
the most fun FC Cincinnati, the most fun I had watching was when they
were at UC when they're playing at Nippert and they were in the whatever fake
minor league league. They were in no offense. But whenever they were in
that league, I enjoyed them. I enjoyed them a lot. Well,
you just had that kind of a collegial kind of feeling, yes about you
know, this is this is our local team. This is fun. This
isn't being spoiled with all of the different components of professional sports. You know,
the drink prices were cheaper, the ticket prices were cheaper, and people
felt like they truly belonged. And so you know, it's still early in
the history of TQL Stadium and this FC Cincinnati squad, and there's still a
lot of support around town for these folks. The Reds continue their series against
the Oakland Athletics of this afternoon. Our time is what the first pitch around
four oh seven, four oh seven, first pitch. Our coverage begins at
three thirty seven right here on seven hundred WLW. Thank you, sir,
Well, I don't even have time for Joe Walsh. No, if there's
always time for Joe Walsh my opinion. Thanks Joe. Seven twenty six at
seven hundred WLW, it's time for the Tom Davis Diaries, so I like
to refer to as they and now here is Tom Davis. Good morning,
Gary, Jeff this week You're never too old to put your foot behind your
head. But first speed cameras are being used more and more every day and
are catching things that would have gone unnoticed before, like in Germany, for
example, where a dog was caught driving a car along a busy Highway police
say he was only going thirty, but it was indeed a big dog behind
the wheel. They got to plate number, tracked down the owner and issued
a fine. A lady from Jersey, Stephanie Fallon, felt something a little
extra on one of the rides at Disney World. She was in the backseat
of a rollercoaster when she passed a kidney stone. She says she was shocked,
but she's fine, and a week in Disney World was only slightly more
expensive than a week in the hospital. Big dreams die hard, or sometimes
not at all. A ninety two year old woman just auditioned for the Radio
City Rockets. Mary Sylvestri says she was going to audition eighty years ago,
but she couldn't find her ride to the Big Apple. She was among eight
hundred other ladies who tried out. You know, if you do the math,
eighty years ago, she would have been twelve. And finally, it's
the civil rights fight that nobody saw coming. The little people of Spain are
demanding the return of their rights to fight bulls. The Spanish Parliament recently banned
bullfighting events featuring little people, so they stage to protest. They say they
are not being denigrated or laughed at. They are being respected for their bravery.
The opposition says that injuries tend to be a bit more severe, and
they are trying to prevent that from happening. I say live and get gored
next week. A new study costing countless millions says kids don't like vegetables because
of the taste. Have a great weekend for all your hardwood needs. Don't
pick a duty Attempters in the mid forties this morning, but we do warm
up to the upper sixties this afternoon, maybe even an isolated storm late in
the afternoon. In the evening hours, most stay drive though. Tonight we
dropped down in the forties again, but it will be much cooler for your
Sunday, only topping out in the upper fifties with rain chances increasing a little
earlier in the day and lasting throughout most of the evening. Find me severe
Weather station. I'm nine First Warning Meteorologist Cameron Harten on news radio seven hundred
WLW forty eight degrees this morning. I'm Sandy Collins, our next update at
eight News Radio seven hundred WLW News twenty four hours a day. It was
a radio seven hundred w l W and now the long time former host of
Breakfast with the Beatles and a man who actually met the Beatles, Jim LaBarbara,
du John Paul George and Ringo on Rock and Roll Archaeology on seven hundred
WLW. Hardly express my mixed emotions at myvssness after all for in your day
and how we'll try to express my feeling and thankfulness for showing me the meaning
of success. Well, do child, he see my life is in your
Wellwell remembering John Lennon this morning, John Paul George and Ringo solo on Rock
and Roll Archaeology, bringing in the music professor Jim Larbarbara, who had the
great honor and pleasure of meeting and knowing the Beatles. I did not,
but of course for almost fourteen years we hosted a Sunday morning program when I
was on FM called Breakfast for the Beatles. So it's great to tackle this
with you this morning. Prop. Tell me a little bit about that John
Lennon Double Fantasy track we just listened to. Yeah, you know, you
know I was thinking when you just said that I met him in nineteen sixty
four and John John was definitely the chief beetle. He was married and at
least appeared to be more mature than anybody else, and he had a little
humor, been driving humor. Paul was the cute beatle. George was the
client beatle. In matter of fact, he played that up when he was
on the Dick Cabot Show. He said, George said, I'm probably the
biggest boy you've ever handled the show. And then Ringo was just ringo was
where's Ringo? But the song you just played, that's that's for all the
women. I mean really, This was the second song that came up in
Double Fantasy, and he selected it. It was the first thing that released
after he was murdered, and it was his ode to his wife Yoko and
to all women. It came to him on a sunny day, he said,
in Bermuda, and he was thinking about women, and his wife in
particular, and what they do for all of us and how we take them
for granted. And in many ways, this song is Lemon's apology to Yoko
because in nineteen seventy three and you left talked about this, the couple was
having problems and they're marriage, so Yoko agreed to put their relationship on hold
and last weekend. Yeah, and so she gives him to watch over him
and keep him company. May Pang, her assistant, and they ended up
in a lot of un ruly behavior on the West coast with Harry Nielsen and
that last weekend what was exactly a weekend at last about eighteen months. Yeah.
Yeah, Well, let's let's move on to to the Paul segment of
our John, Paul, George and Ringo show this morning. And I love
this song. It's uh Paul McCartney and wings tell me about it. Prof
Well, this is interesting. This is a number one record nineteen seventy six,
twenty seventh number one for him as a songwriter, making him the all
time number one hit a cheaper as a songwriter. And over the years people
said to Paul, all he sings is love songs, silly love songs.
They're silly love songs. And then he said, wait a second, any
what I'm lucky enough to have that in my life. So the idea was
that that you may call him silly, but what's wrong with that? You
know a lot of people like those those love songs. And in this song
there's the multiple vocal parts and that was his the Beast Boys. God only
knows. Paul had said that that was his favorites of all times, so
that's in there. And incidently that Paul made lots of music with his wife
Linda McCartney, and he gave her credit as a songwriter on this song.
So how much she contributed, I don't know. And it's kind of lovey
dovey in a song. When you listened to it, they're both singing I
love you throughout the course Paul wrote this. Now, it's been said many
many times that Paul wrote this in response to a Beatle post Beatle thing when
they broke up, but John said the only thing that Paul wrote to the
Beatles were silly love songs. So but that isn't mind the love song?
Here we go. Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs.
What's wrong with that? I'd like to know. It's rock and roll
archaeology with the Beatles this morning, I'm seven o w L. Don't you
think that people? That is a silly love song. I'll look around me
see. So some people want to fill the world with silly love song and
what's wrong with that? I like to know? Does he go again?
I had explained, how can you she gave me more, She gave me
over. What's wrong with that? I need to know? Does he?
Ball and Linda and Wings and Silly Love Songs seven forty six prop we're up
to George now and this is Uh. It's one of my favorite kind of
tribute songs of all time. Yeah, what a great record all those years
ago. Actually, prior to John Lennon's depth, this was this was the
song he wrote for Ringo, and Ringo recorded the song. Ringo didn't like
it, thought the vocal was too high for his range. This like the
lyrics, and Harrison after John died, took the track back and kings of
course with the lyrics and to reflect the attribute to to John Lennon and Uh.
In this song he makes reference to all you Need is Loved and of
course the great song Imagine. And after after the death, they decided to
get back in the studio, so he kept Ringo's drumming track there on the
record, and then Linda came in, and Paul came in, and the
Winds Band made Denny Lane came in and they opened up the original track and
they even got the Beatles producer George Martin to produce the record, so it's
his tribute. They want a beautiful tribute to John Lennon from George Harrison nineteen
eighty one. I believe, Yeah, there's George. I'm shotting all about
love. Well. The dude made it so love talking again. They don't
act with much other Steve the Way the truth. When all you need,
let me with good A man always like up nole call it side by some
one the Devil's friends with Mando will let me need me. That team they've
gotten all by that path back to the one God is a good This is
why I have you on the program. Off. I did not, even
with all of my supposed knowledge, I did not realize that John had given
this song to Ringo and it wasn't originally a tribute song about John. So
thank you for that that knowledge. The music professor Jim Lebarbara with us on
a rock and Roll archaeology segment where we just decided we'd do John, Paul,
George and Ringo solo and we're we're left with the drummer and people don't
understand this. My producer, Eliott Rearing, did not understand that Ringo actually
had the first number one hit of any solo beatle didn't he Yeah, yeah,
this next song was. This song was not a number one, but
I love this song. Heard it traveling last week and I said, I
gotta put this in a John Paul, George and Ringo segment. This last
song, tell me about this tune. Yeah, you don't hear this a
whole month. Back off bugaood give hit number nine in nineteen seventy two,
and yet spiration for it. Ringo wrote the song. George Harrison helped him
out, but Ringo said the inspiration for this back off Boogaloo. He was
good friends with t Rex, the band member that the leader mac Mark Bolland.
Yeah, and so they're haven't dinner one night at Star's house and Mark
bolan used the word boogaloo so often and it stuck in the Star's mind when
when he left the house, he wrote the melodies for the song and it
came to him like open nights and this this guy, apparently Mark Bolland,
was very energized. And here's the speaks like back off boogaloo. Oh you
boogaloo, Oh you boogaloo? Do you want some potatoes? Oh? You
boogaloo, Oh boogaloo. You know he kept played open up again and starts
right down here. To write the song down that night he had he had
to take the batteries out of his kid's toys that night to power up a
tape record and make recording in the songs. And now over the years now
back off Boogaloo. Commentators has said, well, this is an attack by
Ringo on his beetle band named Paul McCartney. And that's but blood this so
must have said that star tonight, any such interpretation instead clinging that song was
inspired by Mark Boland of key Wex and nothing more, and Ul was not
Ringo's nicknamed with Paul McCartney. And and as Ringo likes to say, peace
and love, peace and love, same to you, same to you,
music professor, as we we rock you out with a little back off Bludeloup

a binding good morning, Michael. Noah, do for you, sir,
do do do do do all? I want to say for you what I
loved. I loved science, dog, science on dogs, puppy, Gary
Jeff. So, yeah, the she's like, no, hold on,
hold on, Mike, you don't love science on dogs like Fauci loves science
by torturing beagles or anything like that. Right, No, I'm not,
I'm not. I'm not. I'm not that kind of a praved individual.
No, okay, thank you, You're not cruel like mister Science himself.
It seems that, uh that puppies and anadolescence they have, they get a
lot of stomach disorders when they're young like that, and one of them is
called see which is chronic interopathy. So it's a good idea. So go
ahead and give that puppy or that adolescent dog, go ahead and give them
your table scraps, because it seems to table scraps and dogs to eat non
processed meat like and other things like the fish and potatoes and actually berries and
fruits and stuff like that, they have a less of a chance of suffering
from this uh this stomach stomach disorder. And even they have some stats that
if you like puppies, if you feed them scraps off your plate, they
have like a twenty four percent decrease of having this uh this stomach symptom,
which is like you know, throwing up in diary of and stuff like that.
You talk, so you know, the bad thing to give a dog
has compared is the kibbled food, the high high carb kibled kibbled food and
those raw high bones those if you like a raw high bone, a puppy
will have like one hundred, one hundred percent increase of having this uh this
stomach disorder as they get older in life. And uh, I'm getting ready
just to throw all my wall wall hype runs away in a minute. Here
a man cook my dog. Here a couple of eggs. But oh yeah,
yeah, exactly. You know. They always the event always says,
if doctor your dogs having digestive problems and stomach issues, you know, just
some some baked chicken and some rice, you know, and give them,
you know, stuff that's as you said, processed. Oh exactly. The
treat it like kings sometimes our tests, aren't they, Gary, Jeff,
Kings and queens, yes, and kings and queens usually wind up with gouts.

No, here's Moegger. Miles Murphy might not have been the most talked
about prospect when we discussed what the Bengals might do with the twenty eighth pick
in this year's draft, but for a team that ranked twenty ninth in the
NFL last season in total sacks, the edge rusher from Clemson fills a big
knee. Murphy was a first team All acc performer for the Tigers last season.
He played thirty eight games. In college, he was a three year
starter, a two time All League player, and in twenty twenty he was
a freshman All American. Murphy has outstanding size. He checks in and over
six feet four inches tall, and he has massive hands to go along with
his impressive frame. In each of his three college seasons, Murphy posted double
digit tackles for lost totals. He had seventeen and a half sacks, and
at Clemson he forced six bumbles. Evaluators love his size and his ability to
fire quickly a field, but many scouts do say he does need to develop
more pass rushing movies. Murphy played all across the defensive line in college,
but as a Bengal he expected to be worked into a rotation on the outside
with Trey Hendrickson and Sam Hubbers. Get to know the Bengals first round selection

Gary. Today we come off. She hitting me because I told Okay,
we'll come up. From the Book of Romans, Chapter thirteen, verse
one, he says, everyone must admit himself to the governing authorities. But
there are no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exists
have been established by God, and that's God. We're Gary. People don't
get married at me. I'm just delivering the method. I understand, and
it's it's one of those verses I have trouble with from time to time because
I know that some of these decisions made by some of these authorities that have
been ordained by God are not doing God's work, but they are. They're
doing They're doing what they're doing for a reason, and sometimes sometimes that reason
is to bring us closer to God and farther away from them. And we
know grey God going to take care of that. I tell people, Delhi,
God just ask do you trust me? And I say, yes,
Sorr, I do I trust you. Yep. It's probably one of the
most difficult and it's because of our human egos, Rick that we have trouble
trust in God. Yes, I knew when I ready died. One today

Seven hundred WLW Sports. Thank you. I'll tell you what before you
get to Westside, Jim, because I told him a twenty three doctor Jennis
from Annapolis, How are you doing? Real quickly? What's on your mind
this morning? Real quick? You were talking about the popcorn earlier, Yes,
the rocco. Yeah, yeah, I've kind of gotten into into popcorn.
I've done microwave for decades. It's not a universiful plug for a for
a popcorn product, but I get my popcorn from popcorn poper dot com.
I think the popcorn is it's from Indiana and it comes and kits uh these
like pouches, a three compartment pouch. Yeah, it's really really good.
It tastes just like theater popcorn. And it even comes as that doesn't have
that nasty chemical on it to make it taste like butter. That's the question.
It uses coconut oil. Oh okay, well that'll work. Yeah,
yeah, it's and it's low oil and low salt. I mean, I
used to get the the the original was called real theater popcorn, and then
he made this you can get you can still get that, but it also
comes as a in a low oil, low salt uh product. I will
you can't even tell the difference. I will make a note of that.
Really good. We must run along, Thank you, doctor Dennis. And
now now that we've got our popcorn primer, we go to the truck commander
himself, west side Jim for good morning, west side Jim. How are
you, hello, Gary, Jeff. I'm doing great, buddy. I
wonder if his popcorn costs forty two dollars a serving like they do at the
movies. Oh geez, it's that's that's crazy, that's just insane. But
anyway, how are you doing this morning? To every buddy, I'm doing
fine. I'm doing just fine. And now you are in a truck somewhere
I'm actually parked. We're ready to go. We start technically at nine o'clock
them up at Del High Senior Center if anybody wants to come by for autographs.
Kidding, but it was so nice talking to the amber. I feel
privileged by the way. Oh yeah, we all do exactly. But no,
we're sitting here waiting for the people to pick up the ballad bags,
which the only one in our bag is today is that Del High police levey.
So we usually have twenty five trucks. We're down to eight for the
whole county. Most of it is like school levies and things like that,
so we're prepared. Is about the balloting is Monday or Tuesday or Tuesday,
sir, Tuesday. So they're expecting about a nine to ten percent turnout,
which is incredible. Why why do you even have elections if only nine or
eight percent of the populace of the registered voters are going to turn out?
Jim, this is what I've always wanted. Why do you go through the
expense of paying a truck commander exorbitant sums of money when only nine percent of
the turn it's going to turn out. I mean, it just doesn't make
a lot of sense to me. Well, I'll give you a better one
today. It's it's state mandated, of course. But we've got another special
election in August. Yeah, we're going to have three elections this year.
So you know, I don't mind, you know, getting paid for doing
this, but three elections at twenty to twenty five million dollars at per election,
this kind of seems like they couldn't put them all together. It just
kind of seems a little bit insane for me. But that's where politics are,
you know, Columbus. They don't mind spending our money, buddy,
No they don't, because it's not theirs. Jim. Jim has insides and
a lot of stuff. And you told me that you had a sheriff story.
You still have a shriff's story. Yes, sir, there was a
deputy who regretfully committed suicide about a week and a half ago. Well normally,
and we don't know the circumstance of why, because he had a family,
and I don't want to be disrespectful at all. Personal problems are their
own. But normally they send out a police officer or official to pick up
the personal merchandise like his firearm, the gun belt, uniforms, YadA,
YadA, YadA. Well they went to a supervisor, went to the sheriff
and apparently this person might have been on this guessie now conservative but and said,
well, who are we going to send out to pick up this merchandise?
And she said nobody. She said that the family can deliver him.
And the guy said, well there's a gun there, and YadA YadA,
and this is a sheriff that has lost two to three guns. And so
they went to another supervisor and she and he went in and said, you
know, Sheriff, we've always done this, and we need to do this
with an official. We can't have you know, the wife or one of
the kids or something riding around with a firearm. Plus, you know,
it's regretful. I mean, it's it's hard to bring in personal merchandise after
a gentleman does something like that in his personal life. Anyway, she turned
them down again the second time, so well that has that hasn't hit the
fan yet. As you referenced, one of the first things that happened after
the new sheriff was sworn in was she got her cruisers stolen twice, a
laptop stolen, a gun, a gun stud a department issued gun stolen twice,
and I mean, how this woman has and I think Colin and Girl,
a woman is being very generous. How this woman has any credibility at
all within that department is a mystery to me. Well, Jim Neil fired
her. If you recall, she was doing such a horrible job in the
jail running the jail, and there was so many problems with people in suicide,
fights, drugs, YadA YadA, that they asked her to be demoted
into another position, and she absolutely turned it down, so they end up
letting her go. Well, she threw the lawsuit out there, and if
I'd get the figures right, it was like two hundred and twenty thousand dollars
as she collected. And then the voters elected her into that position. So
you can blame the voters for the most part, because they're the ones that
put her into this job. And now and again back to our original conversation,
Jim, when you get such paltry participation from the populace in voting,
this is the kind of meritocracy you get. There's no meritocracy whatsoever. It's
just checking a box and only nine to fourteen percent of the people who are
able to do it are actually voting is this is what you get. This
is what you get when you don't when you don't care enough to get your
butt up off the couch or even file an absence. There are all kinds
of ways to vote. Now, there's no excuse a month a month,
no excuse not to vote or I totally agree the kind of kind of idiocracy
you get and mail it in. But you know that it's gonna come out.
They've already talked about it, and we will have a special election in
August. We have one last year. Yeah, so you know, I
don't mind, because of course I like doing this. As to me,
it's my civic duty to do this kind of stuff. But you're correct,
and I just don't see how eight or nine percent, how we couldn't put
them all together. Yeah, exactly the war time, Jimmy, you're doing
a great job. Thank you very much. We gotta go. I appreciate
it. Westside gim with us this morning at eight twenty nine, it's Childon's

as a painter named Jack who's very interested in make it a buck. Oh
isn't everybody? So he often would thin down his paint to make it go
a wee bit further. He got away with us for a long time.
Eventually, the first Methodist church in town decided to do a big restoration project
and Jack put in a painting bid for the exterior of the church building,
and well one. Because his price was so low, he got the job.
And so as he started erecting the trestles, putting up the planks,
of buying the paint and thinning it down, Jack's up on the scaffolding,
painting away the job. Nearly one after a couple of weeks, and suddenly
there's a horrendous clap of thunder. The sky opened, the rain poured down,
washing the thinned paint from the outside of the building and knocking Jack off
the scaffold to land on the lawn. Jack knew this was a judgment from
the Almighty, so he fell on his knees and cried, Oh God,
forgive me. What should I do? And a voice came out thundering with
the thunder, and said, repaint, repaint, and thin no more.

on. It continues this weekend and our coverage at the home of the Best
Bengals covered seven LW will continue headlining that coverage on Thursday night the first round
was our buddy Moe Egger who joins us. Now, Hey, Mo,
what's going on? I was just recalling texting you on Wednesday because I know
this is a big deal. We do this coverage and you know, we
have to and we like to because the Bengals are our team and we're there
station. And I said, it's a no, I know it's a lot
of work, but have fun with the draft, excited or just anticipating its
end? And you responded, easily, my favorite show to host, especially
with the Bengals drafting late three days. Yeah, and you really love doing
the Draft show, don't you. Yeah, it's it's really the only show
we do where you're on the air as stuff is happening, you know,
typically everything for big events on beforehand and talking about what might happen. Yeah,
and you're on afterward and talking about what did happen. The draft is
a lot of fun because everything's happening in real time and you know, you're
you're finding out what's going on at the same time the people in the league
are. And it's a lot more fun when the Bengals are drafting late,
just because it's it's interesting. You know, when when the Bengals drafted Joe
Burrow, well we knew for months they were going to take Joe Burrow.
Right when when they drafted Jamar Chase, you know, I think by draft
night we knew they were going to take Jamar Chase, So that was really
only a debate about two players. Um. The fun thing about this is,
you know, you have to spend a lot of time preparing for a
lot of different possibilities, but there's there's a lot of different players you become
familiar with and and it becomes, uh, it becomes a lot of fun
to just sort of as the draft unfolds, figure out, you know,
Okay, ultimately, what's going to happen with the Bengals. What surprises are
there? You know, the kid they took in the first round, Miles
Murphy, It's not a player that we talked about a lot It's not a
player that a lot of people figured would even be there at twenty eight.
When did you know that the being over picking Miles Murphy. Whendn't they did
when they did, you had no idea that he was even on the radar
before that, Well, we knew he was on the radar, you know,
you kind of Tony Pike and I were on the air and enter about
you know, sixteen seventeen picks. I think it was pretty easy to jot
down a list of five, six, maybe seven players that you thought,
Okay, if if these guys are there, here are the players they're likely
to take, and then over the course of the next you know, a
dozen or so picks, you started to cross names off the list. We
had Dalton Kincaid on that list tight and from Utah and went to Buffalo.
We had Michael Mayer from Covidan Katholic, who I thought was going to go
to Dallas. He was obviously somebody we knew he would talk about if he
was available at twenty eight, and he was. And Tom Harrison at Oklahoma.
But Miles Murphy is interesting because you know, nearly every evaluator and I
read a list of five of them on my show yesterday, but nearly every
evaluator had him as between the twelfth best player in the draft or the twenty
second, third, fourth best player in the draft. And so at the
outset of the draft, if if you would have said Miles Murphy, I
would have said, it's going to be interesting if he's there, because the
Bengals n't do need to upgrade their pass rush. But I'm guessing he won't
be. And as it turns out, he was, And that to me
is what makes the draft so much fun, especially when your team is rafting
late. I was just upset that my prediction that I text you didn't come
true. My prediction was the Bengals draft with the twenty eighth pick. Talk
radio host Gary Jeff Walker, a sixty two year old senior who is identifying
as a twenty one year old six foot eight tight end from Alabama. I
mean, it's it's all, you know, It's all about what I believe,
what makes me happy most. So I mean, I could be a
six foot eight tight end from Alabama, but they didn't. They didn't pick
me, so I guess they'll never find out. Will you didn't go to
Alabama? The measurables. I haven't gotten out the measure in Jabe, so
I don't know. But but I'm identifying. I'm identifying as going to Alabama.
Doesn't that is that all that matters? No, not in the NFL.
Okay, maybe elsewhere. Apparently elsewhere. Not in the NFL, all
right. Most so the other the other picks that the Bengals made uh in
Day two were all defensive players as well. Yeah, I think this is
illustrative of the blueprint moving forward. Spend your money on offense, you better
nail it in the draft on defense. Uh. DJ Turners a quarterback from
Michigan who I think early in the process you would have found evaluators who had
a first round grade on him. That really wasn't the case, as you
know, we got closer to the draft and then Jordan Battle. But I
think what you're seeing here the three players they took this has been a theme
now really for the Zach Taylor era, come from winning programs. DJ Turner
has been in a colle's football plaoff the last couple of years. Obviously,
Jordan Battles from a highly successful Alabama program. Clemson hasn't been quite as good.
The last couple of years, as they were prior to twenty twenty.
But you know, Miles Murphy comes from a Clemson program that has been very
successful here for a while, and that's that's really been a theme. It's
really been a theme of the last few years. But I think, I
think if this offseason doesn't tell you what the plan is going to be moving
forward, when obviously Joe Burrow is going to get a contract extension. We
saw the Lamar Jackson deal that could maybe give us an idea of financially and
structurally what that deal is going to look like. They would still like to
pay te Higgins, They're gonna pay Jamar Chase down the road. They have
signed over the last two years for pretty expensive free agents on the offensive line.
You're going to spend your money on offense. You need high end,
cheap talent on defense. And you know they were willing to let Jesse Bates
walk. Bond got away, and so I don't think it's too surprise.
And now I think you would have lost money, or you would have been
fair if you would have wagered money had you said in the first three rounds
they're going to take a tight end or running back, and I certainly do
expect them to address those positions today. But again, with the cash they're
spending on offense, you need good, cheap talent on defense, and hopefully
the Bengals have certainly draft a cheap talent on defense. We'll see if those
guys are able to fill in and help the team out. Why not Ezekiel
Elliott and the Bengals outfit Bengals uniform. I just don't think they want players
who are no longer ascending or are no longer in their prime. Now a
great, great pass blocker and he can get that yard or two with the
goal line that Joe Mixon seems so hard, too hard to achieve. Yeah,
I've actually made that argument. He's not going to cost as much as
Joe Mixon would if he didn't offer Joe a paycutt and he didn't take it.
He can pass protect and he can run straight ahead. He can basically
fill the smag ap Rhyan role. But general rule, and you can't argue
with the results, they haven't been that interested in players who are on the
downside. And Ezekiel Elliott, for his productive as a player as he was
in Dallas, is on the downside. Now, I still think in a
specifically designed role, you could get something out of him. But look,
the all season is not over. There doesn't seem to be a lot of
teams knocking down Ezekiel Elliot's door, which I think you have to keep in
mind. I think maybe you see what they do in the draft. They
did acquire an extra pick in the draft last night that could be used on
a running back. Maybe they take two, maybe they take one. Maybe
they've offered Joe Mixon a pay cut and have given him a specific time in
which he's got to let him know a toll take it. But yeah,
I've made that argument that in a limited role that Ezekiel Elliot would have to
be happy with. I still think he can serve a purpose. But I
think what they're looking for is a three down back in this raft. I
think it would have been interesting last night a kid from UCLA, Zach Charbonnay
many many evaluators kind of mocked drafted him to the Bengals. He wasn't there.
He's a three down back. I think what they would like is to
find a back who can do all the things instead of some of the things.
But the deeper they go into the draft, the less likely you are
to find that, and the more likely it is you have to add a
back in free agency, and obviously as Zekill Elliott is there. This has
been discussed, especially this last week. How close was David Belle to the
unemployment line before this current Red's wind streak. It's a very good question,
I said on Wednesday. I said on Tuesday after they came back in one
game on Monday night, it kind of felt like David Bell, who by
the way, I think firing the manager for a team that doesn't have enough
to the players is ridiculous, but it really felt like he needed that series
against Texas. And you know, now they're playing an Oakland team that is
historically bad. They've won five games all season long, they win big last
night, They've won four consecutive games. I never say this about a baseball
series in the regular season. The Reds should sweep the series, and now
you know they've they've got a little bit of momentum. But I do think
it would have been interesting, especially with an off day on Thursday. You
know what if that six game losing streak becomes a nine game losing streak and
they get swept at home by Texas or they lose two out of three.
I think the conversations would have been interesting, because as silly as it might
be to blame the manager when you don't have enough good players, the reality
is the longer you lose, and the longer you lose with a manager who's
been in place for a number of years, the more likely it is that
they're going to go ahead and scapegoat. And so I do wonder, do
wonder what it would have been like for him had they not pulled off the
series week. What I was wondering this morning mo as Elliot's telling me about
the Reds victory in Oakland, which of course I was asleep for last night,
was that every Red in the lineup had at least two hits except for
Spencer's Steer, who went over six. And I'm just thinking, God,
how would you want to be Spencer's Steer when everybody else is just knocking the
ball all over the damn park and you give an over I mean, that's
just that's that's gonna be deflating personally. Don't you think it reminds me of
my high school baseball career? Oh my God? And thank god it,
there was no golden sombrero in there. He didn't strike out four times,
but he just couldn't get a whiff at the plate. And as you said,
the athletics are historically bad. They're the Oakland Athletics are so bad that
it's not just enough that they want to move, Oakland wants them to move.
Yeah, you know, that situation is weird. If you go back
to the mid seventies, after the A's won three World Series in a row
in seventy two, seventy three, seventy four. Part recently was the owner
of the team, Yeah, they had a hard time drawing then. And
you know, over the course of I think specifically the last two decades a
franchise but at times has fielded some really really good teams, you know,
the team that of the book and film Moneyball We're based on, but constantly
trading away accomplished players, always having among the lowest payrolls in the sport,
and I think very gradually pushing fans away and kind of dragging their feet on
the stadium project out there. I'm very skeptical that baseball is going to work
in Las Vegas. Number one, it's you know, it's not a big
TV market, basically the size of Milwaukee from a television market perspective. You
have a lot of people who live there who aren't from there. I'm skeptical
that tourists are going to make going to a baseball game a part of the
experience. In Vegas. There's less reason to go to Vegas than ever because
of the amount of you know, states that have allowed casinos and short things
like that to be legal, and so I'm just I'm really skeptical that it's
going to work. But I do think it's going to be funny when the
a's who have for years said we can't afford to pay our players, moved
to Las Vegas and suddenly they're opening up their checkbooks because that is going to
happen. Yeah, Moweger, thank you so much. Have a wonderful weekend,
my friend, and we will talk again soon. Northern Kentucky Tea Party
public meeting is coming up this Wednesday at the Boone County Library from six to
eight o'clock at seventeen eighty six Burlington Pike in Room A upstairs. Kentucky gubernatorial
candidate Kelly Kraft and Ryan Quarrels will be there and the Kentucky Secretary of State
candidate Allen Miracle. If you care about such things, Mike Allen cares about
a lot I do, and he's here next with Saturday Midday. What's on
the program today, Michael, Well, we're gonna be talking about our stellar
president's reelection announcement video that he let fly at six am Tuesday morning. I
guess he wanted to finish the job of destroying the country. Finish. That's
exactly what I'm going to be saying. He left left behind, build back
better. Now he's going to finish the job. Also going to talk Gary
Jeff about it. Really interesting NBC Public Opinion Strategy poll that came out this
week wasn't so much focused on candidates, but on what the country's thinking.
And there's some concerning things in there. Now after the show, show huddles.
And by the way, my apologies again to Nancy from Hamilton who came
to see me and didn't understand that that it was a bar, or that
I was dressed as a bartender and nutt what she had pictured in her mind
as a talk show host. Sorry Nance, Mike Allen Saturday Midday next on
SEVENLW. This week's extensive draft coverage is brought to you in part by Twin
Peaks and fl
