Welcome to Halloween on the Nightcap Scary. Jeff Walker with you on seven hundred
WLW on this Tuesday night, October thirty, first, twenty twenty three.
Do you really need anything to scare you? Aren't the headlines and the viral
images enough I would think so for almost anyone, and the choices we are
faced with coming up tonight. Later on, Jim Lebarbar, the music Professor,
joins us with the props top ten Halloween hits and these aren't necessarily the
biggest sellers of all time, but Jim just picked out ten Halloween songs that
he's got great stories, and Jim's got great stories about so much great music.
We will enjoy that tonight from about ten thirty until the stroke of twelve
or just before. And Andy Furman, and if that's not scary enough,
Dave Hatter joins us with an it A Tech Talk update. He scares me
every time he's on with the realities of what we're living with today. And
Roco Costelano, our biohecker and fitness trainer. But first tonight, I'd like
to bring in my wife, Chris to two point zero with her NFL picks
for Week nine. She did pretty well with week eight. Let's see where
we're at tonight. All right, another week out of the way in the
National Football League, And how'd you do? Did you go to the betting
window, did you go to horseshoe? Did you go to MGM? Did
you do your draftking thing? There are many experts all over the country who
claim to know exactly how every game is gonna go week to week. Injuries,
changes, you name it. Anything can happen at any time on any
given Sunday. Anybody in the NFL can win, That's what they always say.
But not everybody can pick games, not like my wife, for example.
You think you're a sharp well, let's see on the money line last
week, Chris to two point oh are you there, dear? Yes?
All right? Christ to two point zero. H picked the Buccaneers to beat
the Bills. That was not to be. Pick the Jets over the Giants,
check win, Jags over the Steelers, big win, Eagles beat Washington,
The Rams lost to Dallas to the Cowboys, as she correctly predicted,
the Vikings were the Packers. Yep, she picked it a loss. Picking
the Patriots over the Dollphs. How the hell do you pick the Patriots over
the Dolphins anytime? What was going on, theres see, it's all about
with the teams that she likes, for the colors that she likes, or
the cities that they're in. Not all about that. The Titans beat the
Falcons, as you correctly predicted, your Saints over the Colts. The Panthers
beat the Texans, The Seahawks beat the Browns. Our Chiefs, my chiefs,
my Mahomie lost to the Broncos. Well, I mean, I'm sorry,
Trick was sick, man? What do you do? And so the
Cardinals did beat the Ravens as you correctly predicted. You also predicted the Chargers
beating the Bears, the Lions, the Raiders, and of course our beloved
Bengals over the San Francisco forty nine Ers in a famous style on Sunday.
What a great game? Huh, Joe Burrow shining again. So, my
dear, are you ready for Week nine? Sure, let's go for it.
Okay, Now, again, we're not picking point spreads. We're just
picking who's going to win the game. We're doing the money line thing.
Don't make a whole lot of money doing that. But you don't lose a
lot of money when you're twelve and four, as my wife was in week.
So here we go. It's a skill maybe, Okay, are you
now calling it a skill? Last week it was just sheer love. It's
a skill, Okay. The Tennessee Titans, with brand new quarterback out of
UK Will Levis, who scored four touchdowns through for four touchdowns in his NFL
debut this past week, facing off against the dreaded Pittsburgh Steelers in Chittsburgh's In
Chittsburgh's I said, chit Chittsburgh's land. What are we what are we doing
here? Titans? There you go? Love it, love it, love
it. The miam the Miami Dolphine against my Kansas City Chiefs. Do the
Chiefs lose two in a row? Do you think? No? The Chiefs
are gonna win this one? A bounce backer? Okay. Minnesota Vikings are
playing at Atlanta the Falcons. The Falcons is not very good. But keep
in mind, my dear, that Minnesota lost their franchise quarterback Kirk Cousins with
an achilles injury at the end of the game. So what do you think
do the Vikings of the Falcons prevail in this one? In Atlanta. I'm
still taking the Vikings, still taking the Vikings. Well, you're brave.
The Bears the beer. They don't like Atlanta don't like to drive through it,
that's for sure, the Bear. The Bears are in the big easy
to play your New Orleans Saints. Are you going with your heart? I
am, and I think that you're going with your brain there too. The
Bears are just trying to figure it out. They're trying to figure out how
to get off the team bus. The Rams are playing the frozen tundra of
lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packer. Who wins this game? Krista,
I'm gonna go with Green Bay on this one. Oh that you picked against
him last week, so okay, you're not You're not holding to one particular
team. The commanders from our nation's capital going, okay happens. I'm gonna
have to go with DC because I can't stay in New England. Very good,
I can't either. Uh. Your Seahattle Seahawks are in Baltimore. This
is a huge game now. The Ravens are in first place in the Bengals
Division the AFC No Seattle. Seattle is coming off. What did the Seahawks
do last week the Seahawks beat the Browns. Do they beat another AFC North
team this this week in Baltimore? I think so? I think so,
yes, you're going Seahawks. I'm going Seahawks. Check for the Seahawks,
so says Chris to two point zero. Christa picks on the nightcap on seven
hundred WLW your beloved Buccaneers from Tampa Bay. You lived in Florida for a
time, are in Houston to take on the Texans. Who wins this game?
I'm gonna take Texans? Oh okay. The Cardinals travel to Cleveland to
face off against the Browns. Go Cards, all right. She was a
huge Larry Fitzgerald fan, and even though he's not playing anymore, she sees
Cardinal red and thanks Larry. So she's got to go with the Cards,
all right. The Colts are playing the Panthers in Carolina. Who wins?
I don't know what the Panthers. I think that's a wise choice. The
Giants are playing the Raiders in Las Vegas. Of course, the Raiders just
got hoodwinked on Monday Night Football last night into another bad game. Does New
York break through on the road or do the Raiders prevail at home? As
much as I hate to say, the Raiders are gonna win. Okay,
Cowboys at Eagles, this is the big matchup in the NFC this week.
This kind of goes a long way to telling you who is going to be
in that AFC Championship game at the end of the year. Cowboys or Eagles.
Christa fly Eagle Fly? Okay, you got it. And do you
know this one? Chargers at Jets. I'll say Chargers don't like it,
but no, j e Tes, Jets, Jets, Jets. You're picking
the Chargers, all right? Ye. And finally, on Sunday Night Football
at pay Corps Stadium in the Queen City, the Buffalo Bills travel back to
Cincinnati to play our beloved Cincinnati Bengals. Who wins the game? Who do
you think it's gonna be? The Bengals? All right, well, Chris
the two point zero, thank you for your time. This evening. We
have the Titans, we have the Chiefs, the Vikings, the Saints,
the Packers, the Redskin Commanders, the Seahawks, the Texans, the Cardinals,
the Panthers, the Raiders, the Eagles, the Bengals, and the
Chargers. All told, we'll see how it works out next week. All
right, my dear, we'll do it again, all right. And by
the way, if you place any money on any of these games, it
ain't our fault. But Chris to two point zero did pretty pretty well at
first week at twelve and four. Let's see how it turns out. I
bet she's better than half the guys, those talking heads on TV. It's
the Nightcap and it continues in moments on seven hundred WLW, broadcasting from his
clandestine fortress of excellence that is Mike McConnell's summons his circle of Chubbions to ensure
a supperior morning. The mustno info from newsmaster of Brian Coles, traffic hero
Chuck Ingram, whether God is Jennifer catch Mark and fabulous Saint Dennis in wits
for It's plus laugh, lots of laugh. A mighty morning awaits you with
Mike mcconnaugh's can I get all that for free? Yes you do, Yes
you do, Mike mcconnall's he makes your morning super Tomorrow morning at five on
seven hundred w l W. Only your dirty carpet spook you call Zero's carpet
and enter our cleaning now to maintain and in sp it's time to talk to
t stuff with the man with the a little bit foil hat, because well
Tim's just not as available anymore. A guy who always scares the bejeebers out
of me anytime he talks about technology and the way it is affecting all of
our lives, and how it's many times inescapable, the one the only from
interest it. Dave Hatter joins us. Good evening, Dave, welcome back
to the Nightcap. Always my pleasure, Garret, Jeff, thanks for having
me on. Let's talk about a secret weapon that hackers can use two docks
nearly anyone in America for as little as fifteen dollars now for people who for
the uninformed or people in bug tussle. Docsing, of course, is finding
out who you are, where you live, and all kinds of personal information
about you that you necessarily don't want in the public purview, right, Dave,
Yeah, that's pretty much what it boils down to, you know,
and today's cancel culture, it's become a pretty prominent and powerful weapons for people
at both sides. I mean recently, I don't know that I've seen the
word use that much in the news, but recently with this whole Israeli come
off Palestinian thing, you know, like the guy driving the truck around at
Harvard with the people who signed on to the thing the letter, if you
recall. So that's sort of a super high profile version of docting. But
the idea that I can get information about you and then put it out there,
usually on the Internet, that makes you look bad and potentially gets you
canceled. So that's sort of what it bloils down to in a nutshell.
All right, So how do they how are they doing this? And it's
like it's cheap. I mean, it's not like they have to go through
any great big effort to dock someone, as you said, and the article
says for as little as fifteen dollars they can get all this information about you
and put it out there. I mean, geez, it seems like anybody
could do it to anybody. Yeah, Unfortunately, Gary, as you know,
and we've talked about this at a real high level. Before you know,
most of your information is out there through folks like credit bureaus. Right,
if you have a credit card, there's a good amount of information probably
on file about you and the three credit bureaus, and then you've got data
brokers buying and selling information. You got people like Google reading all your Gmail
and so forth. So you know, it's not too far fetch to say
that a good amount of information is out there about you, even if you're
not really someone to uses social media and puts a lot of information out there
just because of the digital nature of our society. And as this reporter pointed
out in this four or four article, he used their Telegram messaging app,
which is a fairly well known secure and encrypted messaging app, and was able
to go into a special channel for lack of a better way to describe it,
and for as little as fifteen bucks in bitcoin, request information about people.
Now, one of this is you know, leaked, stolen, whatever
the point you know that the downside is in the point I'm trying to make
you. Unfortunately, there's not a whole lot you can do about this at
this point short of you know, laws that would have severe consequences for people
who leak this kind of information, at which point, you know, at
this point we do not currently have unfortunately, so uh yeah, it's it's
a potentially bad situation. But you know, Gary, Jeff, some of
this stuff would be public record anyway, right, Like I can go to
the local county website and look up someone's address or that sort of thing.
But you know, in many cases you can get very detailed grain or information
about people when you use these illegitimate sources that are ultimately sourcing this stuff from
places like these credit unions. All right, real quickly, Dave and our
waning minutes here, uh, some more talk about TikTok and uh and if
you would please just elaborate on the influence OPS data practices threatening our own security
in this country, the national security. Yeah, so we've talked about TikTok
many kinds scary Jeff, and I've been on the TikTok and work past for
a long time because bottom line is, TikTok is owned by a Chinese company
which is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. It's been a privacy and security
gumpster fire from the word go and has a long history of privacy or violations.
Your data is going to China. This is well known. And even
if that doesn't bother you, then there's the second angle. And I'm glad
to see that organizations like the FBI have started to raise awareness about this.
You know, it's essentially it's an ops platform, and the Center for Internet
Security did a nice article that summarizes all this. I encourage people to go
check it out. It talks about some of what the FBI and other agencies
to put out there, which is to say that essentially, whether TikTok suppresses
information that's negative about the Chinese Communist Party or promotes information that would potentially be
divisited within the United States and creates anarchy and chaos here, you know,
folks need to remember the Chinese Communist Party is our adversary. That's pretty clear
at this point. When you're using TikTok, all of your data is going
there. They have access to it, and they can use this platform to
promote things that are negative for the United States. That's that's sort of a
high level summing. But people need to stop using TikTok, and a sooner
the better. All right, very very much good information, as all was
Dave Hatter from INTRUST. I keep things together there in fort right and don't
let the don't let the monsters bite tonight. Always my pleasure. Gary Jeff
I'll try to keep it on the download here on Halloween, Mattie, Halloween
to you and all your listeners. All right, thank you, Dave Hatter
with us on the Nightcap and much more ahead, including the Prof's Top ten
Halloween hit list before we're done. So we're talking some scary stuff, man,
Well, I got a guy in the studio who's got to handle on
all kinds of scary stuff that you and I consider as normal every day.
Can dump sure, especially on Halloween night for that matter. Seven hundred wl
W your kids or your grandkids going out trigg or treating or you or because
I know too many adults that are still dressing up in costumes and go trick
or tree. You know what I did, Rocco, I bought. I
bought about forty dollars worth of candy. It's all chocolate at home. Now,
I'm a top doctor, not Doc Joe. I know, not good
dark chocolate, you know. But I did buy myself since I'm a Type
two diabetic, I bought myself some zero sugar Reese's peanut butter cups. And
I love them and they don't they don't affect my blood sugar adversely either,
I've checked. So what do you think about that zero sugar? Well,
a zero sugar is always going to be good, no matter what I mean,
you know, a sugar is it's no, it's not aspartame either.
So well, well, aspatam's absolute garbage. It's it's it's actually poison.
It's literally poison that you're putting in your body. Uh. Donald Rumsfeld is
the one that actually put that into the population. He was the one that
actually got it certified by the f D. A wasn't he the ye wasn't
he ahead of defense? Yeah? So so how did he? How did
the head of defense in our country get the FDA to agree to put aspartame
in food? He used to be the uh he used to be the CEO
of us cerrole and and cl' the one that actually uh made Asper team and
Aspertain kept going to the FDA and it kept failing because there was too many
brain issues that asperteam did, uh you know caused. But when Rumsfeld got
into the Reagan administration, he he swore that he would be able to get
the FDA to approve Aspect Team, and he did and he did. Well,
Okay, what about saccharin a sacrament? Actually isn't bad for you.
There was, I can tell you that story too. But yeah, so
saccarine came about right in in in a suite and low because there were a
father and a son out of a Brooklyn. They owned a diner, and
but they created the technology and the mechanism to put sugar or put any type
of don't worry about it, put anything into a packet. So they went
to the sugar industry to put the sugar, the sugar in those little sugar
packets. And what happened was they the sugar industry said, yeah, we'll
do it, show us the technology, and then the sugar industry stole the
technology, made the sugar packets, and then they decided, you know what,
sugar sugar industry, We're going to create another sweetener and put them in
pink packets and called it sweet and Low, and they became a competitor.
You hardly ever see sweet and Low anymore there. I mean, there may
be somebody buddy listening who's maybe younger and never seen Sweet and Low that thinks
it's just a hot looking chick with really short legs. Well well so,
so so then what happened there was the sugar industry started because a lot of
people were starting to use a sacron and and use a sweet and low instead
of the sugar because it was lower in calories and it tasted sweeter than sugar.
So the sugar industry UH devised these so called studies that made sacran out
to be a bad guy and and said that it caused cancer when it really
didn't uh cause cancer at all. They doused the uh the mice with uh
with six hundred times more uh sacrine than any human could ever consume, and
and they said that it would cause cancer because of cancer. Anything, water
can cause cancer if right, if you bring too much of it? Sure
so, and I'm I'm kidding about the water. But it's just it's just
that, uh, so many different things have been brought into our into our
what if the natural sweetener which is known as sweet leaf, it's also known
as a splendor. It's well, there's a lot of what I'm talking.
Yeah, it comes from the plant. What's what Stevia Is it good for
you? Stevia is actually a good sweetener, but it it affects your digestive
system in a way that's not so complementary. You know, the best thing
was it caused gas or what? No, No, it actually kills a
bacteria in the in good bacteria that you need, the good bacteria in the
gut that cause you know, that helps you digest food, and it can
it can cause a gas also, which we really don't want gas because a
methane gas is is really not a good thing to have in your body right
or in the atmosphere. But at all, I mean it's never really got
you got you got two sons, right, No, no, I have
I've got a boy and a girl. All right, So Halloween trick or
treat you go through their canvas? Oh yeah, oh yeah, absolutely Well,
well and they know better now too. They've known since they were a
three that well, Geo's known since he was three, and Olivia's known since
she was about two because Gia was telling her and uh, yes, we
have rid the bags of Skittles, star Burst and any any kind of uh
like like a cake like a little Debbie cake or or something like that,
because skittles have titanium dioxide in it and it doesn't sound very very good for
you, and it's not. It's it's a micro chemical that they use or
or they call it a nano chemical and uh, it actually causes a brain
damage in your brain, in your brain. Yes, it causes brain damage
in your brain. It actually caused brain damage in my toe. Oh my
god, absolutely brain damage my big right toe. It was was totally opened
myself up but out. That's why this show is as good as it is
because werew up and you just keep going. Well. Titanium dioxide has has
been shown to cause uh, brain issues in in a young kids. And
that's why no skittles. Yeah, no skittles, no starbursts and uh and
t hading dioxide is really a caking agent and it it changes the color of
the candy. So you don't really need it whatsoever. And and they just
I throw it in there because they can. They could use common dyes,
right, that wouldn't be as harmful or what is it you're saying? It
changes the color of the candy. Yeah, so in some aspects, right,
if you use a little bit more, you can you can turn it
orange or you could turn a yellow the different candies, right, you know
what. I always hated Skittles and starbusts, any kind of hard colored candy
like that has never been my cup of tea. So I guess I don't
have to worry about brain damage. Yeah, I've never you know, I've
never really liked a Skittles or a Starburr. I'm a chocoholic and I love
peanut butter and I love chocolate. And you say dark chocolate is the best,
Well, a dark chocolate. Oh yeah, a dark chocolate is the
best. And and it really helps with with reacting. You know, in
the body, your vegas nerve calms down when you take a dark chocolate.
And remember the cannabinoids that I was talking about last week, Well, a
dark chocolate activates those and and it helps to a relax you. So if
you if you don't want kids on Halloween eating you know all this a milk,
chocolate and sugary sacks, and you want them to be more calm,
you want to feed them a dark chocolate. Well, anything anything over eighty
percent is gonna be great, right, you know, it's a little more
bitter, but you mix it with a peanut butter and that's the best.
Your rocket is the best a snack. Well, I'm just gonna get I'm
just gonna give me a big, big bar of dark chocolate. Yeah,
and just dip it and a jar of peanut butter. It's like those old
old commercials. Right, you got chocolate in my peanut butter. You got
peanut butter in my chocolate. Absolutely so, so you take out the cake
stuff the little debbies too from the kids Halloween. Yeah, because they have
they have titanium dioxide and they have additives. If you ever, if if
the parents out there or just anyone out there really wants to know what's in
the garbage that right, we put it in in in our body. There's
an app It's called Yuka y u k A and you could scan any ball
code of of anything candy. Uh. You just scan the bar code with
the app and and it it gives you a green light, a yellow light
or a red light on it. And but it also tells you how many
additives, what the hazardous additives are, what the good ones are, if
there's too much sugar, if there's too much fat in it. It's the
greatest app I have ever seen, and my kids use it all the time.
And my favorite story to ever tell is you'll see you'll see fat people
with you know uh aussi colars, you know, like colas and like pepsis
and monster, you know, hanging over the cars at the grocer sugar.
That's like, that's now a fat person's uh like status symbol, I think,
going through the the grocery aisles with all these things hung on the side.
So my son and my daughter have the app. They grab our phone
and they have the app and they walk right next to the fat person going
to get this this garbage food and they scan like the one right next to
it, and they go, oh, daddy, this is so bad for
you. And they're they're saying this out loud in the store, and you
know, kids, they're yelling, this is so loud, and they're that
this is so much I can't believe this lady's gonna buy something. What kind
of reactions store like way to go, way to go, way to go,
keep it going, Yeah, tell them how much garbage they're putting in
their body. But yeah, the Yuka app is the absolute most important app
that you should have on your phone if you care about what you're putting in
your body. If you don't get don't get it. And well, okay,
we'll die anyway. What's the healthiest Halloween stuff that you've ever seen in
your kids bags healthiest. Uh oh, somebody gave them water one time,
like a little water. They gave them little things of get dehydrated out the
all that walking around. And that's literally what the person said. Yeah,
so there's no really healthy candy. I mean you're gonna see you'll see different
stuff out there. I have seen people hand out, uh the kind of
protein with you. Oh, well, they're great because they've a dark chocolate,
a peanut, you know, cashoes and them and and and that's what
I use as my snacks as my go to snack, like a kid bar.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I always eat eat a kind bar.
Or I'll go I'll go get my goat cheese or you know, or or
fruits. You know, we have tons and tons of fruit, strawberries or
blueberries, and then you know some kind of of a meat, you know,
a chicken. Well, you know, we'll have to talk rocco coming
up in the near future because next Tuesday night is election night and Dan Carroll
and I gonna be of results. I can't wait for that craziness. But
what I'm gonna say is issue too in Ohio, of course, will make
it legal recreational marijuana legal. Yep. For people to grow up to a
certain amount for people to smoke. And I we talked about the cannabinoids yea,
in some of the non THC cannabinoids. I think think we should do
a show, especially if issue to passes on the positive and negative effects of
th HC on the body and on the brain. Well, there's yeah,
yeah, we should definitely do that because the research that has been showing up
now because there are so many states, you know where where it is legal,
they are having so much more research are being done. And i'll i'll,
I'll leave it to that show to actually tell you what the research says.
But there has been some concern and connection to schizophrenia with marijuana use,
right, yep, A lot. There's been a lot of brain issues that
are are being h talked about. Was it's a friendy, it's a very
very small population, very very small, Okay, But with the potency of
what they're they're producing right now and the grade of the of the marijuana,
yeah, it's it's just too much. And the edibles. They don't have
the big research with the with the edibles yet because that's the most potent,
right and you're putting that through a your liver. So, so I'm more
than happy to talk about a THC and why you know, but I am
going to be talking about it from a non user perspective or only only other
you know, only other research. I've done a lot of empirical research on
my own over the years, so I so we can tell you, we
can the things that I have experienced or people I know. Have I a
real good good, real good friend who has I'm asking for a friend,
and yeah, I'm asking for a friend in the words of Bill Clinton,
but I never inhaled. All right, Roccocostelano, thank trained with Rocco dot
com. Check it out. It's the Nightcap on Halloween and the fur Ball
is still to come on. Seven hundred WLW. Fred Sans Now is it
is Halloween? All hallows Eve, It's time to scare yourself and you have
turned on the radio just in time to scare yourself with the sounds coming down
from the Big One. Seven hundred WLW The Nightcap Scary Jeff Walker with Andy
Furman, who in another life was Frankenstein's Monster, now joining us somewhere out
there in the middle of the darkness. Hello Andy, Yeah, what do
you mean? Yes? Yes, this is become like right, this is
like a major holiday. You know. I was thinking of turning the lights
off of my house and going down the basement. But I got so much.
I got about twenty five pounds of candy. I got to get rid
of it, you know. So that's why I decided to turn all the
lights on. I fed the kiddies tonight. It was great, it was
I felt bad for them because the weather was not as good as it should
have been, but they were out there with their parents. It was good.
But every once in a while, you see a kid who's taller and
bigger than you at the door, and I'm saying, what the hell are
you doing here? You know, what do you do for a living?
Why are you looking for candy? I mean, really it's crazy, But
any I've read some stories. I've seen some eleven year olds that are taller
than you. So I don't know, but I think, no, look,
what's what's the cutoff? What's the cutoff for Halloween for you? I
mean I think I've read some story in the papers today off the ap wire
that there is some states of saying that if you are a trick and treater
after eighth grade. You could be arrested. Okay, that's all I'm saying.
You could be arrested. And I don't know if this should be a
limit. If you have the hanging downs to go out there and you're a
senior in high school, go ahead, both for it. It doesn't bother
me. I think it's a little weird, it's a little strange, but
go ahead and do it. I mean, have fun. Well, say,
if you're the age of say Michael Jackson in his prime, in his
thirties, going trick or treating, that would be okay with you. Well,
I had problems what he did when he wasn't trick or treating. All
right, that's true. Forget about the trick or treating. Yeah, but
he I mean he did like to hang around younger people. I think that's
been established. Chief. Look, let's not talk about the dead like that's
he's dead. He had a great career musically, and like, whatever he
did, none of my business. I move on, and he may he
may or may not appear on the Jim Lebarb a list of the props Top
ten Halloween hits later on tonight on this show. So you know what,
maybe it was just a think a foreshadowing. I'm mentioning a tease that there's
more Michael Jackson yet to come tonight. How about that good. I'm gonna
move on to this if I may, I move on to the Cincinni Bankers.
Okay. Obviously, as a fan and a resident of the tri State,
I'm happy they won for various reasons. It gets people upbeat, it
gives them happy, it gives them a life, it gives them a reason
to live and this hope. It's all that. Plus economically, it's great
for the city, for the bars and restaurants. We all know that.
So I'm happy they won on the downside. And I hate to sound like,
get off my old guy, I'm not. I would have said this
twenty years ago, but I'm saying it now. The media, calm down,
put the brakes on rope it in a little bit after that went on
Sunday, you would have thought they won the Super Bowl. The team right
now is four and three, one game over five hundred, and I'm reading
and hearing and seeing people say a Super Bowl bound. I told you so,
they're back. Calm down. I mean, maybe you know that's one
of the reasons why I hope they lose so I don't have to see here
and look at all these craziness. And then when they started winning, and
when they go to the Super Bowl, I'm gonna see newscasters on TV,
legitimate journalists wearing Bengal garb giving the news. Please really, let me come
on, boy, I tell you what, you you are really really a
downer. You are you. You are the man who is who is spraying
down the protesters with a hose. You are the guy who is dissing everything
good about what was in that Sunday victory over the forty nine ers, the
dreaded forty nine ers, the forty nine ers that have stood in the Bengals
way all these years through two Super Bowls. Yeah, I mean, you
were so pro Bengal most of the time. You wanted to change the name
of Montana Avenue in town because it matches the last name of the last quarterback
who beat the Bengal twice. I'm glad. I'm glad you brought that up
because I went back and got that editorial and I sent that out to the
media today because I still think they still have to change that. However,
God gave you two years and I want you to listen to both of them.
I'm pleased. I'm pleased with the win. They played tremendously, they
played flawlessly, stead one freaking penalty and it was a bad call. One
penalty in the entire game. Almost a perfect game. So I have no
problem with the Bengals. I have the problem with people. Don't repall them
at Bengals. That's wh I have a problem, And I'll pay you something
else. If you're gonna be fair, do it all the way through.
What do I mean by that? If in fact, you're gonna wear Bengals
garb delivering the news to me on TV locally. If the Bengals going to
the Super Bowl, then you better wear FC Cincinnati GARB. If they go
to the Championship game as well. You know it's good for one, it's
good for the games. Do it for all? Why the Bengals. They
probably would do it for the Reds if the Reds were in the World Series.
I get it, and they're it'll do it for the Bengals. But
let me see them do it for FC Cincinnati as well. Okay, well,
I mean they may well, what's gonna happen? This is just a
milestone is a milestone. Ask you a steak dinner. I'll bet you a
freaking steak dinner at Jeck Ruby's. That they don't how's that that they don't
want? Andy, that they don't wear FC Cincinnati garb. If FC Cincinnati
is playing for the FC Cincinnati NLS Cup, how's that, Well, it's
it's I mean, it's apples and oranges. Come on, the Football Bengals
are ingrained in this town and entrenched in the culture of this town in a
way that FC Cincinnati could never possibly be at this stage. Let them have
a ten or twenty year track record of ups and downs and highs and lows
in Cincinnati, and then maybe maybe Cincinnati will glom onto FC Cincinnati the way
they do the Bengals and the Reds. The Reds have been around since eighteen
sixty nine. Andy, of course people are gonna wear Reds when the Reds
win. It's it's a part of the fabric of this city and has been
for a long time. Same way with the Bengals. They've been around for
over fifty years in Cincinnati. They're part of the city. They're part of
the vibe of the city. FC Cincinnati is to a small extent compared to
the Reds and the Bengals. I'm sorry they've not gotten that status yet.
They got to stick around a while. You know what I mean to what
I'm hearing, Well, what I'm hearing from you is that it's okay for
journalists who will report the news on TV to wear Bengals care Because if you're
logic, that's what you're telling me. All right, You're you're accepted it.
You're saying it's okay for them to wear that, and give me every
stupid excuse why it is okay. It's not okay if you're a journalist.
You're a journalist. You're right down the middle. You're not a fan.
You could roof for them off the air. I don't want to see you
wearing a Bengals jersey and they're giving me the news about well who got shot
and over the line. You're just crazy, is what you are. Listen
now, listen you're telling me that, you're telling me they're a fabric of
the town. Tell that to a guy a family that has just moved here
two or three years ago. They don't know that they're turning on the tube.
Maybe they moved here from a larger metropolis like Chicago or New York or
Atlanta, and they're turning on the TV news and wait a minute, we
never saw this in our city, that the news guys are wearing team jerseys
to deliver the newspid. You don't good, You don't good. You don't
think that there aren't on camera talking heads in other cities who wear the colors
of the big team, whoever they may be in that city. Ever on
camera, you don't think that happens anywhere else, Andy, Really, I
don't think the news people do. I think maybe the weather people, because
I think the weather forecast is are more of a comic relief, more of
a comic relief. No, no, no, no, no, you
don't know. You don't understand. Are the only Andy, The only reason
weather people are not giving me life or that the only reason people the only
reason people watch local news is for the weather. That's why they spend that's
why they've got that's why they've got fourteen meteorlogist Don Staff, and they got
two anchors because people tune in for the weather. That's the number one,
not only for the weather, the number one reason people watch logo webby news
is the weather. Gotta approve that. You gotta prove that to me.
I want to see numbers and I prove that back to me. But I'll
say you what you get a guy like my good friend Steve Rawley, It
goes out there to the high school football games on Friday and mingles with the
crowd and the cheerleaders. I got no problem with that. And he could
wear a high school jersey with that hat because that's what he does. He's
a community guy, is a community minded guy. But the news people are
a different breed. That's all I'm saying. And maybe I'm wrong, but
I don't think I am. I think you are. Because do you ever
see Sheila Gray or Bob Herzog, for example, or or a Leah Hollage
Hodges. The people from Local twelve in Bingle garb today they were all dressed
up as Halloween characters. Bob Herzog this morning, Bob her this morning.
No Bob Herzog this morning on Local twelve. The same people you're talking about
describing so one getting shot and over the rhine in a Bengals guard is dressed
up as Ken from Barbie the movie. I have no problem see you don't
get it. You're right, I really don't get it, now, you
know, I'll tell me. I want to explain it to you. Halloween
is a holiday and national holidays. People are not rooting for or against,
like the Bengals. You know, Pete, there's a blind join in the
sand that you wear a Bengals jersey that basically you're gonna skew your news towards
the Bengals because you got that jersey on. You're a homer. You don't
get you can't be a Halloween homer. How are you a Halloween homer?
Really? Come on? You got them. You just don't see you don't
want to get it. You could be no, you could be pro gool.
You could be anti gool. I for one, I for one,
I for one, I for one am anti gool. So you would never
see me wear Halloween garb if I was on TV or doing anything else.
I just don't like the holiday. I don't think it's a big holiday.
Obviously, it's a big holiday business. It's a billion dollar holiday for businesses,
for candies that like to sell poisons to your children. But it's not
a minute. You talk about me being negative, and I got a problem.
Candy with poison, get a grip, get a life, everything with
You have to be the common denominator of bed poison, ugly cheating. That's
you, not me. Oh I made a statement saying that I have a
problem with journalists, and a journalist is someone who's right, smack dad down
the middle. A journalist. I tell you what, I don't see many
journalists that are smack dab down the middle when they're reporting stories anymore. It's
mostly propaganda and it's mostly one side. Yes it is, Yes, it
is just mention TV twelve. I mean, what was the listener was a
good friend of mine? Okay Local twelve when she gave a story that wasn't
smack dad down the middle. They got the story, They give me the
fact, bingo, that's it. She's not giving an opinion, she's not
leaning on one side of the other. I'm not talking I'm not talking about
specific individual reporters. I'm talking about the class of so called journalists, which
are mostly propagandists now on a mainstream media level. Andy, I'm not talking
about individual people. Sheila Gray is wonderful. You may be talking about columnists
who could offer their opinion. No I'm talking no, no, no,
no no. I'm talking about newscasters, especially national newscasters on ABC, NBC,
CBS, MSNBC, CNN, that all that are all reporting half the
news, the half that they want to and disregarding the rest of the story.
That's not bull, It's true. I have to you. Are you
telling me that David mure is half the story? That? Yes? I
am, yes, yes I am. Well he's giving you half the story.
He's giving you half way story. Give me an example. You give
me an example of where he's right down the middle. No, I would
tell you, I would tell you to say what by the way, David
mu Are skewed up there the night, he really screwed up. He didn't
do this, he gives he was out there in Israel during the war.
How is he playing one side against the other? Are you kidding me?
I think he's tremendous David Muir. I think he's a he's a dressed up
talking head like William Hurton broadcast news. And he's giving you half the story
because he's a mainstream media journalist propaganda. Stand we have a half. You
gotta tell me the half that he's missing. Okay, And I respect it.
Give me the half that he's missing. Okay, if if you find
the next time we talk, I want you to point out one story,
one story that David Muir did, and I will watch that story and I
will tell you the half that he wis watch him every night. I watched
him. I know when you can't, you can't give me one example of
one story. He said he went to Israel. But that's no, you
can't exactly, you can't because you don't know what you're talking about. Reporters
in Gaza and reporters in Israel. Everybody has reporters in Gaza, and everybody
has reporters in Israel. Somebody did this story. So he didn't screw up.
He didn't give me as the story. He gave me the entire story.
Oh you're sure, you're sure? You know what? You know?
You doubt everybody. You're the same guy that thinks that the presidential election was
fixed. It was was the twenty twenty presidential election. The twenty twenty presidential
election was absolutely fraudulent. It was fixed. And nobody's gonna impeach me for
that because there's too much will not take a vaccination. I can't stand Travis
Kelsey, I'm not crying. I mean, God bless you. You could
do what you want. Lucky that you live in a free country that you
could do what you want, your body, your choice. But that's the
way you are. I mean, you just don't believe a lot of things
and that's okay. You're the same guy that thin trunks could be president again.
I wish, I wish, I wish he was president right now.
We wouldn't be in the mess we're in, in the inter Israel wouldn't be
in the mess Israel would Yep, you know what, there is one thing
I do agree with you. I wish he was president now too, because
it wouldn't be in this mess. The entire cookie wouldn't be in this mess.
But the point is this, he's in a big of mess than new
you and me, and I can't see him becoming president. That's because that's
he's part of the reason he's in that big mess is because of the one
sided mainstream media that I was talking about. So in the last in the
last two minutes, I want to let you know that my wife christ to
two point zero last week picked all sixteen NFL games just the money line not
not point spreads, and she went twelve and four, twelve and four.
Just my wife, who's not as sharp, who has as much information as
anybody else, who just casually watches the game. She likes certain uniforms,
she likes certain cities, she likes certain she likes certain players. So she
went twelve and four just picking games last week. Andy, she has picked
a fresh bat tonight. And if she goes twelve and four again, I'm
going to get her a job with MGM or DraftKings or somebody. Do you
know anybody to maybe employ Christa Joe. I know as a I know where
you're going with this. Wait, I know where you're going with this,
and you make me feel like a heel, and I apologize you. And
I discussed the situation when on Sunday morning when I'm on Fox Sports Radio,
we would have that pick thing with you and your wife, and I still
haven't gotten an answer yet. I'm going to get on that because I think
it will be a great segment. I'm on the early morning Sunday Mornings thirteen
sixty am, but also Serious XM eighty three, and we talk about all
the games. I mean, you had mentioned this a great promotion, and
I will follow it up, and I didn't, so I know I'm doing
it myself. And I'm just calling it Krista Picks because my wife Krista is
picking games. She got twelve and four last week, Andy, And you
gotta admit, there's people on television who didn't do that well picking the spreads,
all right, but here's the bottom line. How much money did she
win? That's the bottom line. We don't gamble, We do this for
our own Then why do the pet then why do it just to show you
make any money on it, just to show people any just to show people
that you don't have to be a genius to pick NFL games. That's what
that's all. Oh, we know that that we know, OLLEENI we know
that. All right. Well listen, go back, go back to the
rest of your Halloween candy and stuff your face and and we'll talk soon,
I hope. Well you know you did to me. It's too late for
me to go trick or treating now because in my neighborhood is only six p
eight, so I can't do it now. But you said you had a
bunch of candy at home. You didn't give it all out, did you?
Hell no, there you go, dig it, dig in for a
ball. We'll talk to you later, all right, all right, Coming
up next, it's Jim Lebarber, the music professor and the props top ten

l W red Fans. Now is the time, because it is scary.
Jim Walkler and the music professor, Jim Levarbara on a special Halloween night cat
and it's the Frocks top ten spooky songs. And we could have selected any
number of these to work, and any of them would have been fine.
But Jim and I talked before the show and we got a list down of
what he thought would be the best ones to focus on. And he's got
his music professor's stories to go right along with the songs. So Jim,
we're at number ten and no particular order, but this is how we stack
him up. Tell me about this first one tonight, Oh Boy Halloween a
number one record in nineteen fifty eight, The Witch Doctor by David Seville.
Now this is actually based on a book he had in his library called The
Duel with the Witch Doctor, and he saw I kept looking at that and
came up a story. He said, I'm going to ask the witch enter
for advice on what to do falling in love with the girl. And uh
then he came up with this little hui who huh king tang all a bang
and bing bang, and it became a big, big record. Now what
he did was, this is like the first experiment with a tape recorder.
Now it's common, you know, take the tape recorder, dary you and
you speed up something to slow it down. And that's what he did to
create these voices. And he used the name David Sevilla's real name or as
Magnasarian. He later created the Chipmunks. But this is not all began.
Yeah, this is that was a pretty successful songwriter. You know. He
wrote for Rosemary clooneya when Kentucky had come out of my house aming and cellar.
Oh wow. A pretty good songwriter. A song by the way,
A song by the way that Rosemary Clooney didn't like at all but was forced
to cut and it wound up being a huge hit. But David Sevillian,
right, the Chipmunk guy. Before before we had Alvin and the Chipmunks,
we had Did the witch Doctor come after the chipmunks or before? No,
it predated that it was there before. Was the first record doing that kind
of thing? All right, Well, let me ask the witch Doctor for
some advice to help impress his girlfriend. Well, let's listen to it right
here, the witch Doctor on the Props Top ten Halloween list. I told
the witch Doctor I was in love with you. I told the witch Doctor,
I was in love with you. And man, the witch Doctor,
he told me what to do. He said that, I told the witch
Doctor, you did you love me? Truth? I do, witch Doctor,
you did you love me? Nice? And then the witch Doctor he
gave me this advice. He said that he ended up from me. It's
like you were amiser, and I admit I wasn't very smart. So I
went out. He found myself a guy that's so much wiser, and he
taught me the way to in your heart. My friend, the witch Doctor,
he taught me what to say, my friend, the witch Doctor,
he taught me what to do. I know that you'll be mine when I
say this to you. Jenian tang Walowallaban Bank hating Tang bang Bang, Happy
Halloween. The night Cap continues on seven hundred w l W. Gary Jeff
with our special Profs Top ten Spooky Songs list. We go from the Witch
Doctor prof To the Witch Queen of New Orleans. Oh this is Red Bone,
Red Bone the nineteen seventy one. Not a giant hit, but that
means played great song for this time of the year. Red Bone Wally and
then Pat Vegas and they did this Witch Queen of New Orleans. It's really
about a true it's a true story. It's about a nineteenth century practitioner voodoo
from New Orleans, Marie Levou, legendary voodoo queen, revered in New Orleans,
known for these powerful spells and her ability to heal the sick. Actually,
and she was a local celebrity, with stories of her exploits reaching the
national level outside of New Orleans. And the record if you listen to it,
it flies on a variety of voodoo traditions, including the use of drums
and percussion instruments, references to specific voodoo spirits and rituals. And as a
listener, we can listen to this and explore the rich and the verse world
of voodoo voodoo as they claim they claim it's often misunderstood religious tradition, which
Queen of New Orleans and these guys were a couple of Native American brothers who
scored big with this and then later had a bunch of other hits. Oh
yeah, yeah, I Love Come and Get your Love, for example by
Redbone a little bit later on in the seventies. Well, let's do it
now. Make sure you got your feathers and your oils and everything else that
you need to prepare for Marie Levu and the Witch Queen and the Witch Queen

our Halloween hits on Halloween on seven hundred WLW coming right up, here's another
seven hundred WLW Cincinnati Museum Center, Cincinnati Care's Moment, Cincinnati Museum Center even
cooler than you think now, Rick Utino. In the days and weeks after
Buffalo Bill's safety, tomar Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest on the field at pay Corpse
Stadium, two rival fan bases put their arms around one another, but the
bond between Bengals and Bills fans grew beyond prayers and candlelight vigils. NFL fans
across the country showing their love and support by donating millions of dollars to Hamlin's
charity and giving even more for cardiovascular research. I loved Patty met my adopt
at home. Could have been prouder for the city to haven't stood up and
really supported tomorrow. And the way we did that was just a top knock.
Doctor Woods Curry with uc Health was on the medical team that saved at
Damar's life thanks to their quick response to supply CPR and to fibrillation as fast
as possible. Their actions prompting Ohio lawmakers to push for increased AED requirements in
schools all across the state and ad at the field of play should be our
nationwide standard. Doctor Curry hopes that DeMar's legacy goes far beyond his own miraculous
recovery, stretching to the recovery of others as well. Listen for more on
seven hundred WLW For most of us there are no guarantees, no golden tickets,
no easy roads, all kinds of spooky stuff going on on Halloween maybe,
but we're having a good time. Gary Jeff or Scary Jeff Walker with
the music professor Jim Lebarbara, we continue our list of the props top ten
Halloween hits, including but not limited to these. All right, we're up
to number eight on your list, and it's somebody who's living in a space
where he's not necessarily wanted by the spirits that are already there, correct,
Jim, Yeah, the Hunted House. It's a hunted house, and it's
jumping Jeans Simmons jump goutting down of Mississippi. Mississippi Boy began his recording career
with Sun Records back in nineteen fifty six, a couple of years after performing
as an ump nack for Alvis Presley. He's hoping for Elvis Presley, but
the label released one thing. Nothing happened with his career. Son and this
was like the only hit record he had, and it was a big,
big hit record in nineteen sixty four. But it's actually a cover of a
record that was not originally by Johnny Fuller. Now Jumpin'. Gene Simmons was
the lead singer of the Bill Black Combo in the early sixties, not to
be confused with the school teacher turned Kiss member of the rock band Kiss,
the bass player Gene Simmons. Yeah, it's a stage name that Geen Simmons
took a stage name, but he did it as a tribute to this guy,
Geene Simmons, fifteen Simmons. And so the record became a giant hit.
You think of haunted houses, I think around our area, out of
Bobby Mackew's place over and while there's a haunted that's the story for years,
and Bobby said, there's a place is haunted, that's haunted if you've ever
done with him through the house. So that this became a big hit record
for Jumping Jeane Simmons. But the only thing you did, the only thing
you did. And incidentally, in late nineteen sixty two, the story goes
he traveled to Mexico to appear as a diver in the movie Funding Out the
Poco that starred Alvis Presley, who could not incidentally could not travel there because
he was persona nongrata in in that area. In Mexico, and I don't
know why, but that's the story that Gene Simmons tells. All right,
here's a haunted house. I just moved him a new house today. Movie
was Parkwood. I got spread away bill start a ring in a James right
aloud, and you I haven't moved in a home in house still a met

H the Haunted House on Halloween Night on seven hundred w l W a special
night cap edition with Jim Labarbar. He is a professor of the Prop's top
ten Holiday song list, and we're up to number seven, prof What we
got here? Oh spooky Yeah? Number three and number three hit in nineteen
sixty eight a guy who's lived in Cincinnati for a while, Denny Jos.
Denny Jos in the Classics four. Now, this was an original instrumental song
performed by a sax player by the name of Mark Sharp and Mark Sharp and
he and Harry middle of Brooks Junior first chartered with this a year earlier,
but it didn't really become a giant hit. It was like number fifty seven.
And then a couple of songwriters and creators, James Cobb and producer Buddy
Booie, got the song and they added the lyrics to it, and the
Classic four added lyrics to it. And of course the song is about this
spooky little girl and Denny jose Sing is the lead on it, and it's
not for this eerie whistling sound effect on the record that depicts this this spooky
little girl and it's become a big Calloween favorite. Vocal version is the one
that's the defendive version that that Danny Jos did with the Classics four. Now
as I understand it, Jim this song when it was redone years later by
the Atlanta Rhythm Section. There were a couple of players who were on this
record with the Classics four who were with RS and they had had a version
of this. Yeah, and that was a hit too. That was like
the top number seventeen hit in nineteen seventy nine, and that was Jeans Club
and again producer Buddy Booby and so yeah, because there was like three four
other guys on this too, the Atlanta Rhythm Section, and they all came
out of that seen steeble down there that same area and this was a big
hit. Yeah, it was a big hit, well said the version.
Yeah, the number three hit, the one about the spooky little girl that
we were And I just I love his smoky voice on this. It's just

Way afternows You're on seven hundred WLW. It is the Night Can on seven
hundred WLW On October thirty first, also known to many people as Halloween.
Jerry Jeff Walker and the music professor Jim Lebarbara joining us for the balance of
the hour as we do the props top ten holiday hits or holiday songs.
He kind of picked him out. We agreed, Yeah, these are all
worthy, so let's get up to our number six song on the list,
Jim, where are we at? And it's a joke. It started off
as a joke. It became the biggot. The only big hit record Warren
v. Von ever had a number twenty one hit in nineteen seventy eight,
came off of that Excitable Boys album that he did, And it started off
as a joke. He was the bandleader the Orches, the leader for Phil
Everley, the Everly Brothers and Phil Abley as a joke said to Warren,
he said, this was in nineteen seventy five, over two years before they
recorded the song. He said, hey, he said, why don't you
write a song about a were wolf? Why don't you write a song about
a werewolf? Because he had just watched the television broadcast of the nineteen thirty
five film The Werewolf of London. He said, didn't have that tune for
a song and create a new dance craze for us, you know, And
he wrote the song in about fifteen minutes with his buddy guitar player, Waddy
Watchell, and he was working with the Everly Brothers at the time and they
played in the backup band for the Everly Brothers. Said they did the song
and as their groups of arounds coming the guitars together, somebody popped in and
said that what are you playing? And Warren said were Wolves of London and
Water. He started howling like a wolf, and then Warren Devon came up
the line, I saw where wolf with the Chinese menu in his hand,
and they traded the lyrics back and forth, just grouping the one like for
fifteen minutes and they had this song. They had the song, and they
didn't think much of it. They thought didn't take it seriously. And then
happened at that time that Warren's White's Crystal I wrote down but they were singing
and they wrote down the lyrics and then she got a copy of them,
and Jackson Brown heard it and he liked it. He started doing it in
his concerts and giving credit to Warren's Debon, and then he convinced his label
to Silon to sign warn Zbon and they did and then at the recording session
they recorded this song. But actually when they recorded the song, Warren didn't
think much of it. But at the recording session they spent fifty nine takes
in the session and began the evening and went end of the next morning and
ended up taking this happens. They put the second tout. A lot of
perfection takes time, and sometimes it doesn't. The Werewolves of London and his
hair, and his hair was perfect. I saw were wolf of the Chinese
menu in his hand walking through the streets of Soho in the rain. He
was looking for a place called the hole Foks. We'll look at a bigis
be child Wolf in London. Were Wolves London. I'm handling around your kitchen
door. You better not get him in. Little old lady got you the
later day. Last night were the Wolves of Thunder and again were Wolves of
thumbs up. Were Wolves. He's the heavy headed chin man. I'm kids
legally, he's the nova heard in me said you gotta stay away from him.
You have good nerves out for him. I'd like to meet us tea
Wolves a London. These songs, remember, are for novelty use only On
a Tuesday night, Halloween night nightcap, Gary Jeff on seven hundred WLW with
jim Lebarber's music professor and the Props tip Top ten Holiday list, Where Are
We At Now Jimmy Hey number one record in nineteen fifty and another crazy groupie
song, The Purple People Eater, done by Chabooley, who was an actor.
This is his only pop hit now. He played I'll tell You Everybody
knows the movie Hoosiers around Here at nineteen eighty six film he was clean this
summer. He's the principal of Hickory High School and the assistant coach in that
movie. They didn't remember other things. He was in high noon in the
Outlaw Josie Wales. But this this was his hit record, and the premise
of the song actually came about because another joke by a kid, a child
who was a friend of Shabully's, and he wrote this thing like within an
hour, and he talks about this creature that eats purple people, but not
whether the creature is purple, and the creature also declines to eat the narrator
because he's so tough in the song, and the song that goes into some
of the novel he hits the day at the time and you listen to this,
he might not recognize, but if you lived in that the Royal Teams
short shorts and the chance to quila, and he even does a little about
a mid and thirty seconds and he does little thing that resembles tou dy fruity.
But of course that the voice of the Purple People either is sped up
or recording give it. He said, yeah, I likes Aian by David
Sibil, like a chipmunks thing, you know, all right? And Jim.
Then they turned it down. They rejected it, and then somebody at
the office uh had an ascitator, but you know, a demo record of
it. Then they started playing in the them GM and like the office kids
went crazy, and so the record company said, wait, maybe there's something
there. They released it and it became a giant million seller. Here,
let's listen to the Flying Purple People Leader by Volley. When I saw the
thing coming out of the sky and the one long horn, one big guy,
a mister shaking in the city, it looks like a Purple People eater
than me. It was a one eyed, one born tine Purple People leader.
What a one eyed, one born tine Purple People leader? Sure looks
strange to me. Why really came down to earth and in the tree,
I said, the purple people eater, don't eat me, I heard him
say, and a boy's so rough. I it was a world I had
woman known, Flying purple people eat a one one don flying turple people in
the one had one horn. Flying purple people here, sure looks strange to
me, said mister purple people. You know what's your line? He said,
eating purple people and the shore is fine, But that's not the reason
that I came to the little damp. We're this my sole rapping roll.
Flying purple people eat a pigeon cold and the gold flying purple people either really
little people either? Why aside to see? And the only one from the
tree and he laid on the ground on it. He started to out really
rocking the bath. It was a crazy DEVI he with a swing and pin
bonder. This my rocking role. Flying turn people eat a bits into with
five purple paper? Why the side to see went on? And nobody know?
I saw him last night on the TV show. He is blowing and
out, really nogging him dead to play rocking wrong music through the horn in
his head. More coming up with the music professor. We've still got four
haunted hits to go on our list after this on seven hundred w LW.
Meanwhile, locked high inside that tower because of her beauty, I am pretty

Thanks, you're getting weird in here. Man, It's Halloween night at seven
hundred WLW Scary Jeff Walker with Jim Lebarbara, the music Professor of the props
Top ten Holiday hits up next. This guy is a wacko? Is he
not? Jim oh Man? This was actually a song screaming Jing Hawkins Now
nineteen fifty six. This was never never hit, never charted on Ryam Blues
Strikes, never in the pop strits but sold well, well over a million
copies, and he wrote this is a ballad lamenting the loss of his girlfriend
at that time and he wanted to girl back. It's called I Put a
Spell on You. Hawkins originally envision this is a ballad, but they got
the studio. The entire band was intoxic, kidd. During the recording session,
Hawkins screamed the granted, gurgled his way through the song. He was
drunk, totally drum mean, he was drunk and there was no ballot,
but ended up this this general track that that became this huge success. He
blacked out and was unable to remember the session. He had a blackout in
the middle of the recording session. Yeah. Well, but after he finished
it, they were sitting around he drinking the morning. He didn't remember the
whole night, and he had to learn the song from the recorded version because
he didn't remember what he did. And uh, then they went in and
actually did a second version of the studio, taking that some of the stuff
because it was too sexual. So he can imagine and neither when they took
it out, it was still banned from a lot of radio stations, and
uh, Hawkins did some shows, and he was working with Alan Freed,
the disc jockey in New York. Soon after this thing came out and Hawkins
uh with Jerry with Alan Freed. Jerry said, look, Alan Freed said,
so Cokie did three hundred dollars. You come out of a confin on
stage and and scream and Jay Hawkins said, no, no, no,
he said, no, black man gets into a confident live, they don't
expect to get out. I'm not going to do that man. No,
no, Then he showed them the money and he did, you know,
changed his mind and now you're talking. Now we're talking. Sure you got
the cash? Yeah? Then yeah, if he comes out of this confident
on stage and uh, he's got this gold and leopard skin consume and voodoo
stage. Plus he's got a smoking skull on a sniff and he called Henry
and rubber snakes all around and this thing just takes off like crazy. I
put a spell on you and the other folks records of the Yeah, let's
do it. I put a spell on you because the mind stop the facial
dude, who's up the island, we're running around the Patty's name with me
down. Don't don't tap the spellow you because wow, yeah, stop the
thinger two? Who's up? I hollo you? How you? Hello?
You? I don't call and you don't won't me. I'm you right now.
I'm got a spell on you because there are still three spell binding records
on the way with Jim Lebarbara right afternoons as we continue the props top ten
Halloween hits on Halloween Night here on seven hundred WLW this news drunk on his
has and Jim Lebarba, who was not mumiliated, let's talk about Ghostbusters,
jam real quickly. Well, who's gonna call? Who? You're gonna call?
It? Ghostbusters number one record in nineteen eighty four for three weeks.
Ray Parker Junior, this is the theme song in the movie with Bill Murray
Dan Ackroyd to Gorney Weaver. Well, here's what happened. The film's director
got in touch with Ray Parker and said, I need to have this song,
and I want to title the film to be in the song. And
Ray was very liriar this and once he started working on it, because then
you got it. And it took a few days. But it sounds easy,
he said, but if you hear the song. But if somebody told
you to write a song with the word ghostbusters in it, then it's difficult.
And that was the hard punt getting the title of the song. And
then he got his girlfriend and her friends will shout the title for the course,
he didn't want to sing it himself. And he's a re mound musician
in the studio. His reputation is very big, and he played most of
the instruments on the track. And then Huey Lewis sued Parker for pleasurizing the
melody to his song I Want a New Drug on the track, and they
settled out of court, and then I think there was another lawsuit that went
on and they got a little hungry, but then everything's settled down. But
it became a number one record in nineteen eighty four. Who are you Gonna
Call? The Haunted House sounds that we are sured that help is on the
way to save all of us from the supernatural forces. Well, the result
the attorney that's phrase, who are you gonna call? What are you gonna
call? Hey, Jim, do me a favor? Never ever cross the

I am free of out gus. I likes to guess. I am
afraid of gas. All right down to the top two. We're at the
wire for the top two of the Props Top ten Hunted Hits list, and
this is a huge one. Jim oh Yeah, number four million sellar nineteen
eighty fourth and Thriller. Thriller Michael Jackson. The video it's just one of
the best ever made. The John Lenders thing. It's just absolutely incredible.
But you gotta look at the record man. The audio track Michael Jackson's collaboration
with the producer Quincy Jones, penned by the songwriter Rod Temperton, and the
packman original title if you think about Starlight, that's what this was originally,
and then he turned it into this very sinister thing on the record, and
we got the thrill of gloves to the shills of horror, Holly Wolf's creaking
doors, and the master of the mccotty himself, Vincent Price. Incredible and
no Halloween playlist should be without this song. Now, it was Quincy Jones
White at that time. Peggy lipt him. They were looking for something else
on this record, and she said, hey, how about my friend Vincent
Price. And the words that he does in the song were actually written in
a tax thing on the way to the studio that they of the recording come
down to that. But this scene became such a monster hit, and that
funky me moved baseline, you know, and you got the seventy one year
old guy doing this narration and Michael Jackson in his peak performance. Oh no,
no doubt about it in every way, shape and form. I remember
very well when this came out, and it was the era of MTV.
MTV was around and the debut of the Thriller video on MTV was like one
of the most watched moments of that year. Yeah, this is the Thriller
is a killer in many ways. Let's listen to it again. It's supposed
to me night something. People are working from the door. I got the
mon that almost touch hord. You try to scream, but don't take the
sunne but you're making you start to dream sands over the look you had your
dreaming me. You're back because no one you saying can find me the most

it from the terror on screen. Make I can do the moment that they
say, darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is closer to hand.
Its creatures brawl in the surch of blood to terrorize your neighborhood. And

are at number one in the Prop's Top ten Halloween Hits list for this Halloween
twenty twenty three on the Nightcap on seven hundred WLW. Well prompt, We're
at the top spot, and I have to agree with you on this.
This is probably my favorite and one of the most famous Halloween songs ever.
Tell me about it. Incredible number one record In nineteen sixty two, Bobby
Boris pick us in the Monster Mash. How many times did you play this
on the radio? Heard it on the radio, and he was in a
group called the Cordials and the had his friend Lenny wrote this song because when
he did the act their nightclub back in the record Hop act, Uh,
Boris would go into this uh Bobby Boris would do this Boris Club monster thing
that he picked up from the Frankenstein movies. He'd do it during the part
of little Darling that that song about the diamonds, and he did that,
you know, he did that little then and then so the two of them
came up one night with the plot about Frankenstein monster doing a dance craze,
and this was this was a big attempt to jump on the twist craze.
You know, they had the monster mashed, so this thing, this thing
came back and they did some crazy uh sound effects, the coffin being opened
by pulling the rusting nail of a lump of wood, the claws the hand
where bubbly and sounds came from blowing through a straw and a glass of water
that changed the side of the chains. They dropped some chains onto apply with
the plank and the recording studio floor, and it just all came together,
and you got this song about a mad scientist who creates this monster and late
one night and he rises from the slab and he performs this dance and he's
inspired by the mash Potato, the dance of the sixties, and the dance
becomes the hit of the land, and he chows this party for the other
monsters and all there. The wolf man he gore Countracular and his son is
there too, and there's also a bell Legoti Countracular in the line whatever happened
to my Transylvania twist? And then there's the Peter Lorie thing. Is he
gore? Oh yeah, and it's incredible. Mad Scientists explains that the twist
has been replaced by the monster Mass. He's seeing that the cloud and the
house man the crypt Kicker five, and his story closes with the mad Scientist
inviting you, you the living, to the party at his castle. Beutle
Bobby Bobby Boris Pickett is crypt Kicker five and number one on Halloween this year
and almost every year you have Le Barbara, thank you so much. We're
gonna monster mash our way out the door. To the end of the Nightcap
