1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:06.080
Night tack on seven WLW Gary Jeff
Walker sitting down with you on a Memorial

2
00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:09.839
Day night. I hope it was
a fantastic day, a reflective day.

3
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:16.000
We remembered why we even have this
holiday in America for those who have lost

4
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:20.920
their lives in service to our country
and defending our freedom. That being said,

5
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:26.239
tonight's a really really special show for
me. All of them are special,

6
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:31.199
but these will not be children.
I want to send back this show

7
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:36.960
because tonight. You may remember,
back before the first of the year,

8
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.759
we did a series on American History
on the radio. We talked about major

9
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:46.479
historical events that happened and how radio
was the conduit for the information, so

10
00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:50.399
you know, everybody could find out
what was going on at these different key

11
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:55.240
pivotal moments. Well, tonight is
American History on the radio. In fact,

12
00:00:55.320 --> 00:01:00.520
Cincinnati History on the radio, living
history. Because tonight, to our

13
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:07.480
friend and radio's best friend, Art
Volo, we have gotten together a couple

14
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.599
of friends of mine, but I
guess it was Art's grease that helped to

15
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:17.879
make this wheel turn in my direction
to get both Dusty Rhodes and Jim Lebarbara

16
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:21.920
the music professor in for the first
hour of this night cap. Gentlemen,

17
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:26.079
good evening. Hey, glad to
be here, and I'm honored to finally

18
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:29.560
meet Gary Jeff Walker. No,
tell me real quickly, for the people

19
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:37.680
that are uninformed are not radio freaks
like you. What what What did Art

20
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:42.719
Volo do to become Radio's best Friend? Actually the title was given to me

21
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:46.799
back in the early eighties by a
very well known broadcaster by the name of

22
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:51.079
Scott Shannon in New York and Z
one hundred, and he was calling me

23
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:53.920
Radio's best friend. And it's a
it's an honor, and it's a curse.

24
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:59.280
It's an honor for obvious reasons.
And it's a curse because that means

25
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.319
anything anybody ever asks of you in
the radio business you have to do,

26
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:07.319
and of course God forbid you charge
for it, so you have to do

27
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:10.639
everything for nothing. Okay, So
but it's it's pretty much the story of

28
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:14.919
most people's radio careers, aren't And
what do you want about? And then

29
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:20.759
you're not the only one. I
started videotaping all these DJs over the years,

30
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.439
and but before that was the big
thing I was. I put out

31
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:29.800
one hundred million radio guides across America
from people to travel and find their favorite

32
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:32.919
stations as they drive from state to
state because this was before the internet.

33
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:38.080
Oh yeah, I mean it's before
satellite radio. To keep finding news stations,

34
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.120
and I literally it was half the
fun of the trip, it was,

35
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.639
right, It really was finding one
station after anohing. You know.

36
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:47.919
I remember being a little kid and
just sitting in my bed at night d

37
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.840
xing. You know, I had
my favorite stations, but I was looking

38
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:54.919
to see what else I could find
down the dial at night, especially on

39
00:02:55.039 --> 00:03:01.120
AM. Good news by the way, on the AM, right, I'm

40
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:05.879
from the Detroit area. Well,
occasionally there's good news out of Detroit,

41
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:08.840
not too often, but yeah,
the AM radios are going to remain in

42
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:14.840
ford vehicles, and it looks like
there have been some major victories one for

43
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:19.039
I would say, not just dam
broadcasters, but for the American public,

44
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:23.400
because AM is truly a godsend,
especially in emergency situations. So people should

45
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:30.960
always have that availability at their fingertips. So back to radio history in the

46
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:37.439
room. First off, Dusty Rhodes, this is maybe the second time I

47
00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:38.919
think I've ever had you on the
air with me, and this is one

48
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:45.520
time by phone. Yeah, this
is a pleasure. Yeah, So thanks

49
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:49.000
for taking some time out today on
this memorial day to talk to us about

50
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:55.639
your career and things that still spark
the imagination through the memories of you know

51
00:03:55.919 --> 00:04:00.360
this uh, this advanced Tesla coil
that we're talking. When I was a

52
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:05.919
little kid growing up in Syracuse,
I had a filecard of all the stations

53
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:13.240
I listened to around the country,
And strangely enough, the one station that

54
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:19.600
stands out was WCKY in Cincinnati at
fifteen thirty, and it came blasting into

55
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:25.199
Syracuse at night like a local.
It was just up the dial from a

56
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:29.720
local station, and it was playing
country music. Every night at seven o

57
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:34.160
five, the Jamboree came on the
air and they were selling baby Chicks and

58
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:43.279
Lord's Last Supper table cloths and tombstones. And that station was just dynamic in

59
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:47.639
those days, and the signal was
like a local in Syracuse. And lo

60
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:53.800
and behold. Now I lay right
across the river. I go to church

61
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:59.079
every Sunday, right across the river
from their towers. And it's how about

62
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:02.680
that? Yeah, it's strange,
the full circle trip right all the way.

63
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:06.879
Jimmy, what about your early days? Do you have any memories as

64
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:12.199
a kid listening to the radio and
just being captivated by Well, I got

65
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.600
into the radio business listening to when
I was a kid, rock and wall.

66
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:17.360
All of a sudden, I was
playing in bands when I was like

67
00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:21.199
thirteen years old, jazz music and
then in big band music. And then

68
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:25.639
went to a rock and wall show
and saw Frankie Lyman and Bill Hand in

69
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:29.199
the comments, and that guy was
sitting behind us. They all gone up

70
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.120
and they gave the finger to Bill
Heinling when he came out, and he

71
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:34.279
said, man, he got the
number one record in the country, Rock

72
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:36.600
around the Clock, and they go, no, no, man. He

73
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:40.800
ripped off Joe Turner, who had
been on the same show earlier, and

74
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:43.399
I said, well, what they
left? And the guy said to me

75
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:46.000
and they were the coolest guys,
sunglasses, shruck skin suits, yellow green

76
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.120
blue from the North Side section of
Pittsburgh, and these guys were in the

77
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:53.079
know. They said, you gotta
listen to Porky the Daddy or the radio,

78
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.560
you know, Porky Chedwick. Well, I had never heard Porky,

79
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:59.279
so I listened to the boss Man, a little fringe station in Pittsburgh started

80
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:02.199
listening to Porky the Daddio and I
got interested in radio, but I didn't

81
00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:05.920
want to. I love Porky's sincerity, but Clark Race did the afternoon show

82
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:12.000
on Katie Ka and Clark drove a
jaguar had all the girls chasing after him,

83
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.000
even though he's married. I had
a bandstand show and I know he

84
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:16.639
had the money. Porky didn't.
So I said, that's what I want

85
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.720
to be. I want to be
like Clark Race and to get out of

86
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:24.480
my system in colleagues. I worked
a little bit in the radio at the

87
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:28.720
Town station for three shows and got
fired because I played April Stevens teached me

88
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:32.600
Tiger and they fired me. And
then during the summer I risk Yeah,

89
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:38.199
and then Titusville, Pennsylvania and graduation. I was a pre job at Kati

90
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:42.079
Ka. I brought the tape in
and Randy Hall was the all night guy,

91
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:44.759
and Randy said, if you don't
get my job. I worked in

92
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:46.000
Due Boys. That's why I started. They would love to have you.

93
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:49.800
And Due Boys hired me as Jimmy
Holiday and that's where I was and I

94
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:55.040
gave myself three years and I targeted
two stations. I said this because out

95
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:58.839
of grad scholarship to buston being religious
philosophy. I was be a minister,

96
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:02.639
and I targeted KATKA in Pittsburgh,
my hometown, and KYW because I heard

97
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:06.199
that when I was in going to
college in Meedral, Pennsylvania, and it

98
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:11.279
boomed in there. SPEC's Howard and
Jerry g and I just that was my

99
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.319
station. I want to go to
KYW or kat K. I gave myself

100
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:17.040
three years. In less than three
years, I ended up that w K,

101
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:21.319
y C, KYW and Cleveland.
So it was my dream that first

102
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:25.680
thing on the air in Cleveland.
If I did nothing else in my life,

103
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:28.800
that was it. So nothing else. So somebody giving the finger to

104
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:32.879
Bill Haley and Porky the daddio of
the radio were the inspirations for Jim Lebarbreak

105
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:36.360
later the music professor. Yeah,
and I later had a chance to sit

106
00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:39.879
down with Porky and thank him.
We had dinner, and I thank Porky,

107
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:44.920
said man so much to me.
Well, big influences on me was

108
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:50.759
the Hound in Buffalo and that station
twenty miles west of Buffalo. You can't

109
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.759
hear it, but boy, up
and down the Eastern seaboard, it bombed.

110
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:01.639
I mean it was tremendous and I
was getting started a little before rock

111
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:07.079
and roll. But when I would
listen to George Hound, Doug Lorenz and

112
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:16.759
Tommy Shannon on kb they were smooth
as silk and it was a revelation to

113
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:22.160
hear the Hound come on and talk. And you know the interesting story,

114
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:28.600
I'm swearing Wolfman Jack got his stick
from the Hound because I was in midtown

115
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:35.039
Manhattan one night before the sun went
down and I was picking up KBW and

116
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:41.159
I know that Bob Smith, who
became Wolfman Jack, was listening to the

117
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:45.799
Hound when he was kid in Brooklyn, and that's where he got his stick

118
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:54.000
from his the Hound. Yeah.
Drick Cordick on K what he did he

119
00:08:54.840 --> 00:09:01.480
is repeat the same hour from six
to seven. He'd do the same stop

120
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:05.039
seven to eight and eight to nine. And we picked up on that.

121
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:07.840
Oh well, you know when I
when I was in high school, like

122
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.480
we called it a podcast. Yeah, like my junior and senior year,

123
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:15.120
I would come back to school and
they'd say the bits that he was doing.

124
00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:18.600
Reach Cortick, and I picked up
the nickname reach Hey Reige Rich.

125
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:22.240
Luckily that didn't stick, but Reach
courteurs real big. There's the case of

126
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:26.600
a guy huge in Pittsburgh owned it
out a beer after him to uh well

127
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:31.440
flush, and he went to California, big contract and didn't make it and

128
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:33.840
ended up being a bid actor.
But there's a case of a guy,

129
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:35.559
all right, we know you're big
in one city, you go to another

130
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:39.440
city and he didn't make it.
Well, you know, it's happened here

131
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.519
with the with Jim Scott. He
went to New York and came back with

132
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:48.759
his kind of tale between his legs
and came back to say, became a

133
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:54.080
legend. Like you guys, I
mean you tried Denver after you got to

134
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:58.559
Cincinnati, Jim that that was not
a great experience, was strange experience.

135
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:05.320
What happened was con Hammon came in
as the program director of WLLW and I

136
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:07.320
was number one in the afternoon.
And this was a long journey to get

137
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:11.360
this. This would have been the
nineteen seventy seventy one, Okay, so

138
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:15.759
seventy When he comes in, he's
once more music. But there was no

139
00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:18.039
way to play more music, you
know, because we had the news,

140
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.200
and we had the local years,
and we had the helicopter. We had

141
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:24.559
all this stuff going on, and
it was frustrated with him and then somebody

142
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.440
put in my box, uh,
memo yellow. There's a little yellow memos.

143
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.440
Well, Harry Martin Specsimward and Harry
Martin when I was in Cleveland,

144
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:35.080
Harry Martin will always say blank the
memo's blank the memos and he threw the

145
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:39.399
memos away. So I had that
philosophy, blanked the memos. So one

146
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:45.399
night I'm leebriated coming back from the
Inns Circle Johnny Benson. I'm going through

147
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.960
my thing at home, my briefcase, and there is this letter. And

148
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:52.360
I looked in the letter and it's
it's Dan Clayton's contract. It says how

149
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:56.200
much money he's making. He's making
like two dollars a week more than I'm

150
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:58.799
making. Well, that was it. I exploded two dollars a week,

151
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:01.000
something like two bucks a week.
So I called Murdock like a two thirty

152
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:05.120
three o'clock in the morning. I'm
calling Charlie, chewing him out. I

153
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:05.960
said, what are you doing,
man, I'm number one afternoon. You

154
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:07.960
give me this guy. I don't
want to talk about it, Jim,

155
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:11.080
I don't want to talk about it. But I was getting offers. I'd

156
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:13.000
get offers a lot, and I
was getting an offer and Joe fining to

157
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:16.679
just call me like the next day
and said, once you're do mornings at

158
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:20.480
Katoka and Denver. So I said, now, I flew out there,

159
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:24.000
looked at the market, went out
there. So I'm leaving after Christmas.

160
00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:28.519
I'm going there now. My best
friend is Johnny Bench. I'm falling in

161
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.840
love with this little girl, sadly
subtle, and I'm leaving all my friends.

162
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:33.000
Bench says, a big going away
party. Everybody's there, a bunch

163
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:37.080
of royals, everybody. So I'm
going to Denver, driving across the country

164
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:41.480
in my little corvet. I get
to Denver to check into the Regency Hotel

165
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:46.960
where the Playboy Club is. I
go there and I said, I'm I'm

166
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.519
going we're working on kat katil Kay
and the guy says their credit is no

167
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.080
good here. So this is now
six o'clock in the morning. I don't

168
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:56.919
have Joe Finan, who hired he. I don't have his phone number.

169
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:01.559
So I called the radio station.
It's a five. I got the morning

170
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:03.679
guy and I said, look,
I need to call Joe fine, can

171
00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:07.240
you get back? Who are you? And I said, well, I'm

172
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:09.559
jim La Barbara. I'm gonna be
the new morning man, I start Monday

173
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:13.960
and he said, I'm the morning
man. No, so that was it.

174
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.360
I should have gotten my car and
turned around and drove back. And

175
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:20.720
then they had a contest on the
station what changes would you like to have

176
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:24.120
made? And one of the changes
was to bring me back. And that's

177
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:28.000
and I was there and Rooke came
in. Rooke came in, John Wook

178
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:31.639
came is. The PD wanted to
change my name, was not crazy about

179
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.399
me. Was bringing all these guys
in fro another market, and I said,

180
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:37.879
you know what, I missed Cincinnati
so much. I came back for

181
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:41.080
vacation and never went back there.
And LW hired me back about the same

182
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:46.159
salary and everything. But they had
Beasley an afternoon drive. And Murdoch is

183
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:48.240
a little purgatory thing. I was
in the early night show for a while

184
00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:52.320
until they brought me back. A
lot of people listening now may not remember

185
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.519
some of the you're talking about.
Charlie Murdoch. Yeah, Charlie Murray was

186
00:12:56.559 --> 00:13:01.120
a famous program director who came to
WSAI. You worked with him, right,

187
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:03.320
yeah, right, you worked with
him. It was a GM and

188
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:09.399
W SAI and he was a great
jock and m in Miami with the Beatles

189
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:13.559
and every Yeah, and he went
into management, which was not a move

190
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:18.200
that Jock's made typically, And he
came to SAI and then says W LW

191
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:22.000
God rest the soul, good and
good Man. And Murdoch said to me,

192
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:26.919
Murdoch WHN came back said, look
act like you know the program director

193
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:30.120
of Respected, but all the dealings
you do with me. So that was

194
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:33.600
my relationship with Charlie from that point
on. Yeah, yeah, o GM,

195
00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:37.000
you know you're a moment ago.
Now don't consider this gifts from Wali?

196
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:41.360
All right, but you're talking about
we were talking about a two dollar

197
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.480
difference. Yeah, yeah, what
did the Doe say when she came out

198
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:48.559
of the woods. I'll never do
that for two bucks again. Okay,

199
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.080
So I don't never forget that.
That's almost as funny as a gift from

200
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.799
Wali. Almost. Well, he
came in, is the is the Knight

201
00:13:54.919 --> 00:14:00.480
and don't call us, We'll call
you all fairness. So Dankton is doing

202
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:03.799
an early night show and Dan Clinton
takes me aside. He knows I'm pudding

203
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:05.919
now and this is right before I'm
leaving. Dan Clinton said, why are

204
00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:09.519
you leaving? Because he tried to
harm me when he was at pop in

205
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.480
Hartford years before. So he said
to me, he said, why are

206
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:16.039
you leaving? I said, I
saw, I saw your contract. Somebody

207
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.639
put it in my box knowing it
would stir me up. And he said,

208
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:24.159
do you think I'm coming into a
night show? I'm I'm gonna be

209
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.080
the new PD. So that should
have tipped me off not to take the

210
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:31.840
job in Denver. It was.
It was not a good experience. One

211
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.919
other thing that you were just talking
about Pop W Pop had Hartford, Connecticut.

212
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.120
Do you know what famous event happened
there? That's where in nineteen sixty

213
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:43.360
two, at the end of the
summer, a guy named Joey Reynolds who

214
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:48.360
we all know Joey Reynolds, locked
himself in the studio and which song did

215
00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:52.879
he play over and over again until
it became a hit by Frankie Valley in

216
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:58.759
the Four Seasons Sherry? He broke
Sherry and made them stars. And that's

217
00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:05.279
why to this day, Joey Reynolds
in New York and cousin Bruce Marl in

218
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.039
New York are the only two people
that have a DJ theme song sung by

219
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:13.639
the Four Seasons. So there that
is the voice of Art Volo. We're

220
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.039
talking to Jim La Barber, the
music professor, and Dusty Rhodes Man.

221
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:22.080
I am in this little broom closet
of a studio with Radio Royalty, and

222
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:26.039
it's awesome, absolutely awesome, guys. I'll tell you what. We've got

223
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:30.879
just a couple more minutes in this
segment, in this half hour. And

224
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:35.399
Dusty, I do want to get
in the story of you being instrumental in

225
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:43.799
bringing the Beatles to Cincinnati in nineteen
sixty six. Curtin deserves most of the

226
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.559
credit. He was the guy that
came back in the studio and said we're

227
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:54.000
bringing the Beatles in or we're going
to try to one night February of sixty

228
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.320
four, and I said, yeah, I'm in, and I got a

229
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:04.600
hold of five grand, actually borrowed
it from the Central Trust Bank. My

230
00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:11.960
in laws co signed the note for
me, and we each tossed in five

231
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:15.440
grand five DJs twenty five thousand.
I was gonna say, and I don't

232
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:18.279
want to get too personal, it's
none of my business. How much money

233
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:22.480
were you making at the time.
Hundred and eighty a week this nineteen sixty

234
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:26.240
four, Yeah, one hundred eighty
a week, and you go and borrow

235
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:33.399
five thousand dollars on some wild haired
scheme to get the Fab four to Cincinnati,

236
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.480
the first American tour. And it
really put Wusai in the map because

237
00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:45.840
all three TV stations were there.
We had the full page Cincinnati Post that

238
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:52.519
day, the afternoon paper that had
Fremnenzus circulation. And I was getting upwards

239
00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:59.559
of three hundred pieces of mail at
night, three hundred pieces, and Dale

240
00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:03.319
Steve from the Cincinnati Post said,
that's movie star mail. And I bring

241
00:17:03.359 --> 00:17:07.200
all the postcards and letters on them, and my wife and I would sit

242
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:12.599
there and write notes to everybody in
the small wee hours of the morning.

243
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:17.200
Now you were you were getting this
kind of mail just from your on air

244
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:22.039
PERSONA right okay, and doing the
Beatles. And we set up on a

245
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.880
whim the first Beatles fan club in
North America. We got twenty five thousand

246
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:32.119
members. We still have the lists
of the members. And I missed a

247
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:36.319
boat because Tom Clay did it in
Detroit and he had the kids send a

248
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:38.799
dollar in. It was called the
Beatle booster Ball, but he got in

249
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:44.279
serious trouble. All right, well
we'll stop it right there. We didn't

250
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:48.160
we'll stop it right there and come
back after what's passing for news here in

251

Lebarber, the music Professor and our friend

262
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:53.000
Art Volo here in the studio as
well, Gary Jeff Witness. So we

263
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:59.240
were talking about the Beatles, Dusty
when we broke and U and it was

264
00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:03.000
a good experiences for our friend Steve
Kirk, and it was a horrible experience

265
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:07.039
because he lost money. He was
the only man who lost the second show

266
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:12.160
on sixty six. Uh, we
did it in sixty four. He did

267
00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:17.440
it by himself. In sixty six. I was on my way to Detroit,

268
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:22.559
so I wasn't a part of that. They were going to play Saturday

269
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:26.119
night at rained or something, and
they played Sunday afternoon. Yeah, they

270
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:32.000
had to hire the police for two
days and they didn't count that in the

271
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:33.880
budget. Jim, you were credit, told me. Steve told me.

272
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:37.759
He said that when you guys left
town because Skinny Bobby Harper was down to

273
00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:41.960
Lanta, you're in Detroit with winds
Ard c KLW, and the tax man

274
00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:45.079
came and so he had to pay
the text. He said, those guys

275
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:47.960
were gone. I lost money on
that show because I had to pay the

276
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:49.799
text. He said. Then when
we got the Beatles in, he said,

277
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.759
in sixty six they lost money there
because of the rain thing. They

278
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:56.240
had to rehire the security the stadium. They had to pay for everything again,

279
00:19:56.680 --> 00:20:00.799
he said. And then John Lennon, he talked Lennon and this thing

280
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:03.160
over to do the show and he
said, And the media the way it

281
00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:06.759
was in those days, a lot
of people didn't know that the show was

282
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:08.799
on, he said, So we
lost, didn't sell it didn't nearly sell

283
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:15.599
out. If Steve would have called, I would have a check or Steve

284
00:20:15.680 --> 00:20:19.079
Kirk would have said that, right, right, So that you work with

285
00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:22.680
Steve at SAI. Right. Who
were the other disc jockeys that went on

286
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:29.160
on bringing the Beatles to Let's see, there was Mark Edwards, the afternoon

287
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:34.799
guy, Me, Paul Purton,
skin Bobby Harper and who else? Who's

288
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:40.480
the fifth guy? There was the
only guy that left the dollar bill up

289
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:42.680
on the on the mantel and his
kid. The ice cream truck came by

290
00:20:42.759 --> 00:20:48.640
and Mark Edwards and so the kid
took the bugler bill was signed by the

291
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:57.000
Beatles. Use it for the ice
cream? Yeah, Kirk, me uh

292
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:03.880
Burton, Kirk and me and who
else? Mark Edwards, Dick Wagner was

293
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:07.640
in in it, and Mike Sherman
was in but Skinny Bobby. Okay,

294
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:11.799
so you guys pulled your money you
bring the Beatles here. Yeah, it's

295
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:18.839
a raging success in sixty four that
the year of Beatlemania, right, and

296
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:25.880
then you getting movie star mail,
you wind up going away from Cincinnati.

297
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:30.039
I went to Detroit for about less
than a year ckl W. I did

298
00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:34.160
the Mourners mournings there. Why they
hired me, I'll never know. They

299
00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:41.039
had a guy named Bud Davies who
was a real institution and yeah, this

300
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:47.240
was the early c klack, then
eight, the Big eight. Yeah,

301
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:51.519
Paul Drew came in and changed the
format and blew me out. He wanted

302
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:55.160
to put me back on nights and
I didn't want to, so that was

303
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:56.759
it. But he came back home. Yeah, now were you were?

304
00:21:56.759 --> 00:22:03.240
You were? You received with open
arms very much about said. Hired me

305
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:07.440
as a sales guy because they didn't
want me to go to WUBE. And

306
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.640
I did that for a year and
I got in the investment business, and

307
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:18.720
then I started the oldies shows on
fifty five KRC, Randy Michael's Uh put

308
00:22:18.759 --> 00:22:26.079
me over on l W, then
grr UH and the Sunday night oldies shows.

309
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:30.400
That kept my hand in and allowed
me to have a lot of fun.

310
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:36.200
There's there's one thing I know that
listeners not just in Cincinnati but all

311
00:22:36.200 --> 00:22:41.440
around the country. Remember Uh,
your marathon Christmas shows that used to put

312
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:45.000
you right. Yeah, how did
that get started? Well, I started

313
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:51.799
a GRR in the nineties and I
well, actually I started an SAI in

314
00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:57.200
sixty one. We brought in all
the LPs and was like changing the format

315
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:03.960
and I started the Christmas show.
Then the next time Ron Britain took Christmas

316
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:07.920
Eve off and I did six hours
and it just grew from there. Uh

317
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:11.880
and uh. At one point we
had a one hundred and twenty five stations.

318
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:18.000
Foldiers Coffee sponsored it for a while. Yeah, uh and yeah ran

319
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:22.400
all over the country and didn't Foldiers
also a sponsor. You're a cup of

320
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:26.559
coffee in Detroit, because that's all
you were there for. That's what you

321
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:29.440
in the radio business. We say
I was there for a cup of Right

322
00:23:29.759 --> 00:23:33.359
was a tenure. But can I
brag for you? I understand this year.

323
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:36.119
I hope I'm saying the right thing, or we're gonna have to We're

324
00:23:36.160 --> 00:23:37.839
gonna have to edit this show.
We're not gonna edit it. And that

325
00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:42.160
is better be right, better be
right. I understand this year that this

326
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:48.519
kid that used to hang around this
radio station named Sean Something is putting you

327
00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:52.759
on wg N in Chicago, your
Christmas show. That's what I'm that's what

328
00:23:52.839 --> 00:23:59.039
I've been told and he haven't told
me. Yeah, that's that's gonna be

329
00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:02.759
a big deal. This this is
the next Christmas glad to do. That's

330
00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:07.119
a big station. Yeah, wg
N, yep, Yeah, you deserve

331
00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:08.920
to be on that station. You
deserve to be on lots of that.

332
00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:14.519
You do an excellent had a chance
to do an audition once at WGND after

333
00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:18.880
a Blackhawks hockey game. Yeah.
I'm there in the bottom of the Tribune

334
00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:22.920
tower, the beyond the street studio
where people passing by they could you could

335
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.519
turn on the mics and let them, you know, interact with them.

336
00:24:26.839 --> 00:24:32.680
They're on Michigan Avenue. Uh.
It was pretty cool. Uh, that's

337
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:37.680
funny. Do know what w g
M stands for? Why? W LW

338
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:42.240
stands for World's Lowest Wages at ALLGN
stands for World's Greatest Newspaper, that's right,

339
00:24:42.319 --> 00:24:47.759
the Tribune, Yeah, huh yeah. And WMA Houston for we Must

340
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:52.680
Ask Questions. I thought that was
interesting. So, prof Uh, how

341
00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:56.680
did you get and I know you've
told me the story before, but how

342
00:24:56.680 --> 00:25:00.000
did you get the moniker the music
professor? All I came down when Jim

343
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:03.160
him Gallant hind me when I replaced
him Gallant in Cleveland, and he was

344
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:07.240
there. I came in as a
part time guy, but making full time

345
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:10.440
salary, and then they let him
go to give me a full time shift.

346
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:14.240
So when he came to w LW, he became the program director.

347
00:25:14.359 --> 00:25:18.240
And I was at k WHY for
three years, in Wixie for a year

348
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:23.559
and Cleveland and Cleveland and Wixie brought
a guy in to do the night show,

349
00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:26.319
and I knew the early night show, so I knew I was destined

350
00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:30.680
to be all nights in Cleveland with
Norman, Wayne and Wixe. But we

351
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:34.559
became number one, and also a
guy came into the station, Chuck Dunaway,

352
00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:37.519
who I didn't care for because Chuck
Dunaway. When I was at k

353
00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:41.559
Y when they were letting me go, I was doing my last show as

354
00:25:41.559 --> 00:25:44.599
my girlfriend was with me, and
Chuck came in and I was leaving.

355
00:25:44.680 --> 00:25:45.599
He said, hey, hey man, he said, listen to me.

356
00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:48.839
I'll show you how it's done.
You're not gonna be doing anything for a

357
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:51.359
while. Listen to me. I'll
show you how it's still. And that

358
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:53.440
was it. So when we were
doing an appreciation show, we became number

359
00:25:53.440 --> 00:25:57.559
one and they introduced the newest Wixie
Superman, Chuck Dunaway, and I told

360
00:25:57.599 --> 00:26:00.400
I was supposed to introduce a couple
of That night we had everybody fifth the

361
00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:03.839
mansion, Johnny Rivers, I told, stand next to Joe fin and then

362
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:07.720
in the wild shob Dick Kemp.
I said, man, I'm out of

363
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:10.839
here and so and finally said I'll
go with you. Don't quit, don't

364
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:14.160
quit. So we went to the
flats down there before it was developed and

365
00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:18.039
got drunk. I never made my
show, and two days later nobody ever

366
00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:22.079
said anything to me, but that
was the reason. So I was looking

367
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:27.079
for a job and I called Jim
Gallant. His wife answered here Stanny w

368
00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:30.680
hired me. And then when I
came down here, he said, I

369
00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:34.319
like what you do, Paul Revere
on the radio, the shangrals everybody.

370
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.400
He said, I want you to
do more of that. I'm gonna call

371
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:41.279
you the music professor. I said
what he said, you know ishka bibbele

372
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:45.359
kay kaiser. You know that I
had no idea and he had the bill.

373
00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:48.880
He had the thing adds in the
newspaper, the Man of La Music

374
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:52.319
take off on the land Man of
La Muncha. So he said, I

375
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:55.480
want you to do more of that
on the radio, and that's what happened.

376
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:56.559
So I came in. I didn't
want to disappoint him, so I

377
00:26:56.599 --> 00:27:00.319
didn't feel comfortable doing it, and
all of a sudden, bench and he

378
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:03.519
rose, and guys I knew would
call me, hey, prof how you

379
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:07.519
doing this? Took off very quickly, and then the building supervisor or the

380
00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:10.119
maintenance guy at the building told me
one day, said I love you,

381
00:27:10.160 --> 00:27:12.119
and I love stay Mattlock. Listen
to you every night, listen to Matlock

382
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:15.039
in the morning. And I listened
to Mattlock. Matt Lock's doing a show

383
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:19.519
and he's talking about pregnant guppies and
how many guppies a pregnant guppy. So

384
00:27:19.640 --> 00:27:22.759
then it got to me, I
said, wait a second. That's the

385
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:29.160
gallant was very smart because the market
was already in tune for a music professor

386
00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:33.160
because of the educational stuff that Matt
Locke was doing every morning. The magazine

387
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:34.920
of the Yeah, his magazine of
the air, So it was an easy

388
00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:38.119
go for me. He opened the
door for me, and then he was

389
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:42.599
so inspired by the first of the
year. Can I make a shorter story

390
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:45.200
than Jim? Yeah, I'm slower, no, no, no, I

391
00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:49.000
get in what I know. I'm
just kid. I was just to say,

392
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:55.440
pregnant guppies led to the music professor, which is just what an odd,

393
00:27:55.720 --> 00:27:59.920
odd little fish story. If they're
ever well, you know, one

394
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:04.440
of the videotaped him at the Wixie
Reunion in Cleveland back in nineteen eighty.

395
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:08.000
That's where I first met Jim L. Barbara. I got him a video

396
00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:11.359
of that, and he thoroughly enjoyed. It was a lot of fun.

397
00:28:11.599 --> 00:28:15.640
I think I also recorded you a
GRR here in Cincinnati about I don't know.

398
00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:19.359
It's almost twenty years ago, and
I had the chance to video you,

399
00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:25.480
Dusty Rhodes and on your Sunday night
show, right, And I'll probably

400
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:27.440
get in trouble or one of us
for saying this, but remember when you

401
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:30.680
was signed off, how you had
to get out of there because of two

402
00:28:30.720 --> 00:28:33.559
hours of religions right right? And
you said, well, I gotta do

403
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:37.960
is guy, And we're both good
Catholic kids, you know, And he

404
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:40.799
said, we gotta gotta get rid
of the religion so that we can go

405
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:42.240
all the way to midnight with the
right. Because it was such a great

406
00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:49.480
Sunday night show. It wasn't art. You also taped Gary Burbank here at

407
00:28:49.599 --> 00:28:55.119
WLW. Tell me about that,
XP, Yeah, he's well get Gary

408
00:28:55.240 --> 00:28:57.680
is one of my idols. And
uh, he was of course in Detroit

409
00:28:57.759 --> 00:29:02.000
at the Morning Mouth at Sea l
W. But he was I think as

410
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:03.640
long as Tenure, I believe,
was here in Cincinnati. You know,

411
00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:07.839
he worked at WHA S in Louisville, and of course anybody works there is

412
00:29:07.880 --> 00:29:14.880
now it Hashish Memphis, Yes,
at WHBQ was it? I think so?

413
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:18.200
I think, yeah, he's just
such a great guy. Um,

414
00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:22.680
you know. And and to be
here in the studio with him recording him

415
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:25.640
playing his parody songs and what have
you. And of course one of the

416
00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:29.759
best videos I ever did of him
in full makeup, he was dressed up

417
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:36.039
as Earl Pitts American at the Hugh
de Pole Brewery at the Stupie it's not

418
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:37.880
what they called the Stupie or something
at the I don't know it. At

419
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:42.240
the and and and he was doing
his big rally at Randy Michaels was there,

420
00:29:42.759 --> 00:29:48.680
Um, Dave Reinhardt was was there. It was just a tremendous Mike

421
00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:52.240
McConnell. It was a tremendous time. And then when it was all over,

422
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:56.960
my friend Michael Collins, who worked
television for a long time here on

423
00:29:56.039 --> 00:30:02.000
Channel five, he comes walking in
with his crew and it is all over,

424
00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:03.920
and I said, well, I've
got it all on video, and

425
00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:07.079
they put it on the news that
night and never even gave me credit.

426
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:11.200
On the super on the screen where
they credit who whose video they're using,

427
00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:18.920
it said video courtesy Pits for Governor. Thanks at guys, God Almighty.

428
00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:22.519
But it was a fun time.
Jim, you're you're talking about and you've

429
00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:26.240
told me some stories about hanging out
with James Brown at the Old was it

Circle, the Inner Center imas in town.

a call from Pete Georgson on the

432
00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:37.680

around talking to James Brown a number
of times, loved, loved the stories.

He actually convinced you to drive back
to Cleveland. Yeah. I had

440
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:03.920
a girl, a girlfriend in Cleveland. So he said, you know you're

still in love with him, thinking about

00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:08.079
her all the time. He said, man, go get her, just

443
00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:11.799
go get her. So I got
in my car and my little Corvette and

with another guy, and that was
the end of Susan. That was the

449
00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:33.680
end of Susan. So but it
was James Brown's advice to do that.

450
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:38.400
So listen to the Godfather. Huh
yeah, well maybe you needed that disappointment

451
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:41.599
so you could move on. Yeah
you know what I'm saying. Yeah,

452
00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:47.720
Johnny bench friends with john He lived
directly above me. As a matter of

453
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:51.079
fact, Susan Susan came down.
We're looking for a place to live.

454
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:53.720
So she's gonna come down and say
and stay with me in Cincinnati. And

455
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:56.359
I'm looking for a place to live. And I were They put him up

456
00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.720
to Gibson Hotel here and I pull
up the driveway and Smith Avenue of the

457
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:04.200
form appointment said, there's a girl
in a little two piece bathing suit blocking

458
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:07.200
traffic. And there's a guy on
the top floor pushing a refrigerator off the

459
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:10.839
balcony because he's trying to get evicted. He's trying to get evicted. He

460
00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:15.480
had earlier and knocked the wall down. And all these kids and these girls

461
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:16.880
are standing by the swimming pool.
It's right there, and they've got the

462
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:21.640
little bathing suits on and then it
comes tumbling down. Okay, so it

463
00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:24.839
hits the ground and the girl weighs
me around and Susan, my girlfriend,

464
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:28.960
says, you're not moving in here. That was on a Sunday, a

465
00:32:29.000 --> 00:32:31.000
Monday, I signed Deleasa. That
was the end of that. But the

466
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:36.680
apartment was Mike floor alone. David
Conceptsio was at the end. Next name

467
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:40.559
was Flynn Robinson from the Royals.
Eventually, Mike Read moved in the bend

468
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:44.680
across the bend, across the hall
from the Bengals. Doug Dressler back and

469
00:32:44.759 --> 00:32:47.400
fullback was directly across the hall,
and Johnny Bench lived directly above me,

470
00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:51.839
and we had this room that we
would communicate back and forth. Kenny Anderson

471
00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:53.960
moved in next door, didn't stay
very long. The excitement was too much.

472
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:57.799
Downstairs was just Phillips, the full
back from the Bengals. Tommy Elms

473
00:32:57.880 --> 00:33:00.200
lived there, and Norm van Leer
Storm, Norm van Leer from the Royales,

474
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:04.960
I mean all there at the forms. So it was like and it

475
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:07.279
was a paradise, I will tell
you it was already every night right exactly

476
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:13.240
every night. So who's uh,
of all the people you've met through this

477
00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:16.440
business, Dusty and through the connections
in this business, did you have a

478
00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:24.079
favorite celebrity that really just impressed you
and will well beyond being a fan of,

479
00:33:24.160 --> 00:33:29.240
but just somebody personally who impressed you
that you do Carl Perkins, Oh,

480
00:33:29.319 --> 00:33:34.640
really, Blue Sway Shoes. Yeah, he was traveling with a WGRR

481
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:39.359
Oldies show and I talked to him
for a long time. And Jerry Butler

482
00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:45.519
of the impression the ice Man.
Yeah, and Jerry had gotten into politics

483
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:51.440
in Chicago. He was elected a
Cook County Commissioner against the Daily Machine and

484
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:57.160
served for about twenty years as a
Cook County Commissioner before Chicago went to hell.

485
00:33:57.759 --> 00:34:04.480
Uh that or the night Chicago dine
at all yea every night, well

486
00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:09.199
every weekend, but anyway, But
Jerry Butler was an impressive guy and Carl

487
00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:15.360
Perkins was equally impressive. So those
are the two that stand out. Uh.

488
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:20.480
We got to meet a lot of
Roy Robison, Frankie Valley of course

489
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:24.599
the Beatles. Uh. And it
was it was fun, it was no

490
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:30.679
doubt. I'm just I'm just sitting
here being enviousness mostly my job today.

491
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:34.400
Well, listen, Art, I
really appreciate you coming in. You're on

492
00:34:34.440 --> 00:34:38.119
your way to a talk radio simitar. We're gonna talk about you. Yeah,

493
00:34:38.159 --> 00:34:42.639
I bet you will. Yeah,
it's hopefully in glowing terms. Yeah,

494
00:34:42.760 --> 00:34:44.679
we'll see. It's my last year. I'm gonna do that. I

495
00:34:44.679 --> 00:34:47.199
can't. I'm getting up there in
years and I just can't be doing this

496
00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:52.360
anymore. But I video taped,
videotaped over the years, many many broadcast

497
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:57.079
conferences, and they're they're a lot
of fun, you know. But quitting

498
00:34:57.079 --> 00:35:00.159
on this one, of course,
is very It's very republican, so if

499
00:35:00.199 --> 00:35:05.840
you even lean slightly left, you
would be an outcast. But it's gonna

500
00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:09.000
be an interesting time. That's because
conservatives make the best talk show hosts.

501
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:15.920
At least hear video. Between your
videos and Jim's interviewers, we got a

502
00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:20.239
collection. We got a collection.
Appreciate you so much. Great Jimmy here,

503
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:22.840
thank you. I will hopefully talk
to you on Saturday morning, seven

504
00:35:23.000 --> 00:35:28.320
thirty five. Rock and Roll Archaeology
hard below. It's appointment listening. I

505
00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:31.440
listen every week. It's nice to
finally meet my friend. Good feelings.

506
00:35:31.880 --> 00:35:39.280
But I camp continues with the furball
Andy Furman right after one on seven hundred

507
00:35:39.400 --> 00:35:45.280
w LW. People have always craved
entertainment. In each increase, the aristocracy

508
00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:51.119
would enjoy an evening of banquety.
We're scantily clad maidens would perform live music

509
00:35:51.159 --> 00:35:55.239
and read poetry as the invited guests
gorge themselves on the elaborate feast laid before

510
00:35:55.280 --> 00:36:00.559
that. The event would end once
the belching drowned out the Today, we

511
00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:06.960
have something better. Eddie and Rocky. They're very entertaining and louder than most

512
00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:12.800
bodily noise again and Rocky tomorrow afternoon
at three on seven hundred WLW. It

513
00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:17.519
already gives you access to the hottest
music events and deal again to another hour

514
00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:22.960
of this nightcap on Memorial Day night
on seven hundred w l W Gary Jeff

515
00:36:23.039 --> 00:36:30.880
Walker. And the last time we
spoke to this next guest was the last

516
00:36:30.920 --> 00:36:34.679
time I had a show back on
May, the eighth end of the month.

517
00:36:34.800 --> 00:36:38.639
Now we're here heading into June,
heading into summer full throttle, and

518
00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:45.360
poor poor Andy Furman still cannot get
into his pool because he had hip surgery.

519
00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:49.480
That that was the last time we
talked, and we were concerned.

520
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:52.679
I was concerned anyway, that maybe
something would go awry with the surgery.

521
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:58.400
And but no, Andy survived that, and he's still rehabbing, he's still

522
00:36:58.440 --> 00:37:01.159
exercising. He's not where he would
like to be yet, and in fact,

523
00:37:01.199 --> 00:37:05.199
he's kind of crotchety about it.
And I don't blame him. He'd

524
00:37:05.199 --> 00:37:08.199
like to get out and drive and
move and do all the things he normally

525
00:37:08.239 --> 00:37:12.519
does. And you're still laid up. So Andy, how is the recovery

526
00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:16.000
going? Anyway? Let me tell
you something. You are a freaking genius.

527
00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:21.119
Let me tell you why because people
in radio should like mimit what you

528
00:37:21.239 --> 00:37:23.800
do. You had me on the
night of Monday, maybe eighth. My

529
00:37:23.880 --> 00:37:28.719
surgery was the next day, you
had the greatest tease in radio history,

530
00:37:28.800 --> 00:37:31.639
saying I wonder if we'll talk to
him again, meaning that I may perish

531
00:37:32.079 --> 00:37:36.840
Moreover, Not only was the teas
great, I was getting sympathy nose to

532
00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:39.199
my wife at my homecouse of you. All right, but that's okay,

533
00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:43.880
But it was a great tease.
You are a freaking genius, means yes,

534
00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:49.159
Andy. All that means is that
people really really love you for whatever

535
00:37:49.239 --> 00:37:52.760
reason. That's what it means.
I don't know. I have no idea.

536
00:37:52.840 --> 00:37:57.280
However, I must really love you
because you have taken me away from

537
00:37:57.320 --> 00:38:00.280
the seventh game between Boston and my
im me in the NBA plays, But

538
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:05.079
that's okay because I can still watch
one. I'm sure we don't how much

539
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:09.079
I love you. We will have
We will have probably a final score in

540
00:38:09.119 --> 00:38:16.000
the news at ten thirty. Maybe
in that maybe eleven, maybe maybe eleven.

541
00:38:16.039 --> 00:38:21.440
This is Hughson. By the way, did you see the finale of

542
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:25.480
Game six on Saturday night? Oh
my goodness, Oh my goodness. You

543
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:30.000
know that goes up in the annals
of great Celtics finishes, like an in

544
00:38:30.039 --> 00:38:35.079
nineteen eighty four when Larry Birds stole
the ball and Dennis Johnson laid it up,

545
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:38.199
and way back when when Johnny Mose
was announcing the games of the Celtics,

546
00:38:38.320 --> 00:38:43.719
when John Havlicek stole the ball from
how Greer against the seventy sixes and

547
00:38:43.840 --> 00:38:49.039
Johnny Moses going Havlote stole the ball, Halte stole the balls crazy. Well,

548
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:52.119
you're just right up there. This
might even be better. You're talking

549
00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:54.519
about ancient history, and those are
names. I know more of those names

550
00:38:54.559 --> 00:38:58.719
than I know the names on the
roster of the Celtics or the heat.

551
00:38:59.239 --> 00:39:04.039
Now you know what I'm clue you
brought that up because those people who talk

552
00:39:04.119 --> 00:39:07.199
sports know nothing about the history of
books. Knowing that you should not have

553
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:12.119
to because you know a little bit
about everything, that's a compliment you do.

554
00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:15.960
I know nothing about the other topics
you talk about, political, whatever

555
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:19.239
it may be, social, whatever
you do a great job for. You

556
00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:21.920
knew just about enough to get by. And that sound like an idiot.

557
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:25.239
But most people who talk sports talk
sports within the last two years. They

558
00:39:25.280 --> 00:39:30.800
know nothing about history. And I
think it's terribly important to know history in

559
00:39:30.840 --> 00:39:34.400
the world of sports. For example, today's Memorial Day. What was the

560
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:38.320
less frequent time baseball teams did not
play a Memorial Day. It's unbelievable.

561
00:39:38.440 --> 00:39:42.639
Back when the House of Child do
a doubleheaders, forget about that. That

562
00:39:42.639 --> 00:39:45.159
won't ever happen again. But every
team played a Memorial Day. Reds are

563
00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:49.119
off today, Thank goodness, you're
on and they play the Red Sox to

564
00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:52.960
m R nine and Boss. Did
everybody in the MLB take today off for

565
00:39:52.119 --> 00:39:57.079
just the Redsandy? I think several
teams have taken the day off. Haven't

566
00:39:57.119 --> 00:40:00.639
checked out all of them. But
there was a tradition that Oreal Day was

567
00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:04.599
doubleheader, and more often than not, the history tell tells us that those

568
00:40:04.599 --> 00:40:07.239
teams that are in first place a
Memorial Day, more often than not would

569
00:40:07.239 --> 00:40:10.800
win the pennant that was baseball More
it really was, well, they can't

570
00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:14.639
lose any ground if they don't play
on Memorial Day, if they're in first

571
00:40:14.639 --> 00:40:16.119
place right now? Yeah, you
know, look, I hear the I

572
00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:20.639
love sports. I love sports talk
all aspects of it. I worked in

573
00:40:20.679 --> 00:40:23.360
Fox Sports Radio. I listened to
my cohorts there. I listed seven hundred

574
00:40:23.400 --> 00:40:27.960
WW list of fifteen thirty. But
when they talk about the greatest players of

575
00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:30.599
all time, I never hear Will
Chamberlain's name in basketball. I never hear

576
00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:34.920
Elgin Baylor. You've got not because
they didn't want to talk about them.

577
00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:37.679
But they don't know. You have
to study period. In the story they

578
00:40:37.719 --> 00:40:40.800
talk about Michael Jordan, the greatest
ever. Michael Jordan was great, and

579
00:40:40.880 --> 00:40:45.360
you love them, but the greatest
ever was Will Chamberlain. Worried? You

580
00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:50.119
know what? What's uh, what's
special? Since we're on this topic,

581
00:40:50.199 --> 00:40:54.840
what's special about the town of Hershey, Pennsylvania Besides Chocolate Dandy, the hockey

582
00:40:54.840 --> 00:41:00.119
team, hockey team. I guess
the Hershey Squirts, right, No,

583
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:01.840
I think they're the Bears. Bears, Yeah, the Bears, not the

584
00:41:01.960 --> 00:41:07.199
Squirts and the amusement park. I'm
not the Hershey Kisses. That's not what

585
00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:09.239
That's not what i'm you know,
that's not what I'm referencing. It's not

586
00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:16.320
what I'm referencing. You're you're still
not. It was n nineteen sixty two

587
00:41:16.559 --> 00:41:24.079
and the Philadelphia Warriors we're playing in
Hershey, and and Wilt the still scored

588
00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:30.199
one hundred points, still the highest
total in any single. He was twenty

589
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:32.199
eight for thirty two from the foul
on he was a terrible foul. Oh

590
00:41:32.280 --> 00:41:37.559
yeah, but Johnny Green was playing
center. Daryl Limhof moved over to center

591
00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:39.960
for the New York Knicks that game. Basically no one knew about it.

592
00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:44.760
Really, it was in the Hinderlands, and it was really back in the

593
00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:49.039
day, the NBA played many regular
season games in all fet cities to drum

594
00:41:49.119 --> 00:41:52.960
up interest and get attendance. So
Hershey, Pennsylvania, was where that happened.

595
00:41:54.119 --> 00:41:58.280
I wonder says the last time the
NBA have had a game in Hershey.

596
00:41:58.639 --> 00:42:00.039
I'm not sure you'll see what they
should have done. And I don't

597
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:05.039
never do that because of you know, big big arenas and private boxes and

598
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:08.119
people with season tickets. But they
should have had an anniversary date and had

599
00:42:08.119 --> 00:42:12.760
a game with Philadelphia. Now the
seventy six is playing in Hershey, they

600
00:42:12.760 --> 00:42:15.599
should have had a game there,
a regular season game. But those things

601
00:42:15.639 --> 00:42:17.760
will never happen. They just don't
do those things anymore. Well, back

602
00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:22.480
to today and the series that's going
on as we speak right now between Boston

603
00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:29.599
and Miami. The seventh game.
I actually am rooting for the Celtics to

604
00:42:29.639 --> 00:42:32.480
win tonight. And I didn't follow
the NBA all year long. I'm not

605
00:42:32.559 --> 00:42:37.320
a crazy fanatic like you are or
a lot of other people are around here,

606
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:42.719
not a big hoops guy when it
comes to the National Basketball Association.

607
00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:46.480
But I did find somebody to root
for, and that's the Boston Celtics.

608
00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:52.360
So any one in particular on the
Celtics that you enjoy watching, I have

609
00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:57.679
no idea. I just added me
to embarrass the guy. The guy,

610
00:42:57.920 --> 00:43:02.639
the guy's name Smart, who has
the multi colored hair. He's he's a

611
00:43:02.760 --> 00:43:07.440
He's a hell of a player.
He really is brown. Yes. Isn't

612
00:43:07.440 --> 00:43:14.599
there a Johnson on almost every NBA
team somewhere? Yeah? Probably probably Johnson

613
00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:21.559
and Washington. Yeah. Do you
think Williams and Williams Williams, Williams,

614
00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:24.320
Robert william You see all that,
all the currant Williams the same name.

615
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:29.400
Yeah, that's okay. Do you
think you'll see do you think you'll see

616
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:34.320
Lebron James kid in the NBA?
You know, I think your brother Lebron

617
00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:37.519
James, because when when I want
to talk about him, I'm talking about

618
00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:39.239
his kid. I can't stand Lebron
James. I just wondered, I know,

619
00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:43.440
he's got to I just want to
mention the funny thing about him.

620
00:43:43.559 --> 00:43:45.719
Yeah, they got elimited about Denver
Nuggets and there out of the playoffs,

621
00:43:45.840 --> 00:43:50.840
right, and the elimination should have
been the story I think should have been

622
00:43:51.039 --> 00:43:54.039
how great Denver played. You know, Luca was tremendous for Denver. Finally

623
00:43:54.119 --> 00:43:57.559
he gets on a big stage of
people can see that. Basically, he's

624
00:43:57.599 --> 00:44:00.559
probably the best player in the NBA
now, not Joel and beat was the

625
00:44:00.639 --> 00:44:05.719
MVP. Luk at Donahua got the
MVP award. But it's a whole storyline

626
00:44:05.960 --> 00:44:08.880
circled about Lebron and will he come
back next year? Nothing about how the

627
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:13.760
Lake has failed in that platoff series, nothing about how great Denver was the

628
00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:16.599
whole storyline. He's a genius dude
like you. He turned it around saying,

629
00:44:16.760 --> 00:44:20.199
I don't know if I'm going to
come back next year. I got

630
00:44:20.199 --> 00:44:22.960
to ponder this, and I get
it. A lot of athletes after an

631
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:25.920
elimination game that's tired, that beat
up, they want to think about it.

632
00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:30.079
He'll be back the sixth season,
number twenty one. But it was

633
00:44:30.119 --> 00:44:32.480
a genius thing that it was all
about him, nothing about the failure of

634
00:44:32.519 --> 00:44:37.320
the lads and how great Denver was. Well, you know what, And

635
00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:43.719
I think that Giselle tom Brady's I
guess soon to be X has told Lebron

636
00:44:43.800 --> 00:44:46.199
that if he if he plays next
year, she's not going to sleep with

637
00:44:46.280 --> 00:44:51.599
him, which is maybe a motivating
factor for him to play next year.

638
00:44:51.679 --> 00:44:53.599
And I think he's his son's going
to play with him. Eventually, Brownie's

639
00:44:53.639 --> 00:44:57.679
gonna play with him. But now
you talk about tom Brady, now he's

640
00:44:57.719 --> 00:45:01.159
a part owner of the Los Angeles
the Las Vegas Raiders. This room is

641
00:45:01.159 --> 00:45:05.440
now on the internet. That will
he play for the Raiders? Will it

642
00:45:05.519 --> 00:45:07.800
come out of retirement and play again? I mean, can we move on?

643
00:45:08.559 --> 00:45:12.039
I mean he's used to go,
no doubt, but can we move

644
00:45:12.079 --> 00:45:15.280
on? You know, some people
think that the league or the business that

645
00:45:15.360 --> 00:45:20.599
they're in cannot survive without them.
The league will do well. The National

646
00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:23.760
Football League will survive and go on
forever with or without tom Brady. And

647
00:45:23.760 --> 00:45:27.440
it was great watching him play,
but I think it's time to move on

648
00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:30.760
and let the Joe Burrows move in. Let the Patrick Mahomes move in.

649
00:45:30.280 --> 00:45:34.840
Yeah, you wanted to talk about
Joe Burrow in the press conference the other

650
00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:37.719
day, Andy, Oh, yeah, that was a funny situation, and

651
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:40.159
I wish I could have been there, but I was a little gimpy with

652
00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:44.719
one leg. But I will be
there in the future for another news conference

653
00:45:44.920 --> 00:45:49.840
because the media there, the media
wagging their tails and having their tongue sticking

654
00:45:49.840 --> 00:45:52.360
out, and all they wanted to
know about Joe book. Did you sign

655
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:57.119
your contraence to the contract side.
You know, it's got to the point

656
00:45:57.159 --> 00:46:00.960
that it's nauseating. He's gonna play, He's going to be here, He's

657
00:46:00.960 --> 00:46:04.159
basically said, and you even admitted
this. He basically said, I'm more

658
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:07.519
interested in rings than money. He
wants to spread the wealth to get his

659
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:12.079
teammates the money that they deserve.
What is the whole situation? What is

660
00:46:12.079 --> 00:46:15.159
the anticipation? Why do you want
to be first to say that you got

661
00:46:15.199 --> 00:46:19.239
the story that he's signed a contract. He's going to sign a contract.

662
00:46:19.679 --> 00:46:22.480
Be creative. Give me a story
about what do you do. What's a

663
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:24.559
typical day in the life of Joe
Burrowdin. I'd like to know that what

664
00:46:24.639 --> 00:46:28.679
do you do for exercises? What
are your meals? What do you go

665
00:46:28.719 --> 00:46:30.440
for entertainment? You know, how
do you hide from the public these are

666
00:46:30.440 --> 00:46:34.159
the stories I want to know about, not your contract, because to go

667
00:46:34.239 --> 00:46:37.880
to sign the frequent contract, and
that's all they wanted to know. Just

668
00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:43.639
like my quarterback in my Kansas City
Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes or as I like

669
00:46:43.719 --> 00:46:46.480
to say, my Mahomy, he
has said that he's more interested in winning

670
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:51.960
rings than he is making money.
He's the money's gonna be there. It's

671
00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:57.760
all the hype. It's all the
hype about the Lamar Jackson contract and who

672
00:46:57.800 --> 00:47:01.679
I don't think is worth it,
the Deshaun Watson contract, which certainly I

673
00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:06.239
didn't think he was worth it.
They didn't even know how many frigging games

674
00:47:06.280 --> 00:47:09.239
he was going to play for the
Browns when he got in No big shakes.

675
00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:15.440
I never was impressed by him when
he was in Houston. Uh he

676
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:20.800
had you know, yeah, But
you know, it's people want to talk

677
00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:25.920
about People want to talk about the
money, including these mindless reporters that you're

678
00:47:25.920 --> 00:47:30.480
talking about at the Joe Burrow news
conference. They want to talk about money

679
00:47:30.559 --> 00:47:37.199
because they think that that's what their
audience cares about. And and that's all

680
00:47:37.280 --> 00:47:44.440
they care about is the bright chan
and the audience certainly doesn't care about it.

681
00:47:44.519 --> 00:47:47.199
And I think the money is what
separates the audience from the game itself.

682
00:47:47.199 --> 00:47:51.840
They they want to give the audience
something else to bitch about, because

683
00:47:51.880 --> 00:47:55.840
that's the number one complaint that the
average Joe has about professional sports is how

684
00:47:55.920 --> 00:48:00.519
much these players get paid. The
great ones and the ones who maybe you're

685
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:05.199
not even so great, but still
get the big contracts. People want to

686
00:48:05.239 --> 00:48:08.599
bitch about that all the time.
So I think it's just a way of

687
00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:14.280
reporters stirring the pot to give the
public something else to bitch about. What

688
00:48:14.639 --> 00:48:16.400
about that he's going to any ball
game, go to a Reds game and

689
00:48:16.400 --> 00:48:20.239
get a guy with a big contract
and he goes on for three strikes out

690
00:48:20.280 --> 00:48:22.320
three times? Oh, that's so
be he's making X amount of dollars.

691
00:48:22.440 --> 00:48:24.440
Is that all he could do?
Right? I mean? And then he's

692
00:48:24.440 --> 00:48:28.079
gonna be doing that to hunt the
green if he doesn't turn around. That's

693
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:31.239
just the way life is. The
worst thing that ever happened is when contracts

694
00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:37.119
of Major League ballplayers, baseball,
football, whatever became public public right.

695
00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:42.639
But the point is they had to
become public because agents compete with one another

696
00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:46.400
to sign their player. That's how
Lamar Jackson got his contracts. Because one

697
00:48:46.400 --> 00:48:51.000
other quarterback got more than him and
he wanted more. So it's always going

698
00:48:51.039 --> 00:48:53.280
to be that way. But as
soon as these contracts became public, that's

699
00:48:53.440 --> 00:49:00.360
was the ruination of the sports really
had a division between fan and at the

700
00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:04.000
game itself. I had a friend
named Andrew Felix, and he always said

701
00:49:05.199 --> 00:49:10.400
his dad would talk about certain people, and I think this definitely relates to

702
00:49:10.480 --> 00:49:17.440
most sports agents. He called them
real estate selling bastards. And and then

703
00:49:19.199 --> 00:49:22.960
so you got you had a bunch
of greedy guys who really don't do anything

704
00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:28.440
but hang on the phone all day
with chicks uh from the ten percent or

705
00:49:28.480 --> 00:49:32.719
whatever they're making from their star athletes
and act like they're they're big deals because

706
00:49:34.239 --> 00:49:37.119
their guy gets multiple million dollars.
It's the biggest contract ever. I'm the

707
00:49:37.199 --> 00:49:45.840
I'm the king discounting with the parasite. Yes, is the sports agent primarily

708
00:49:45.079 --> 00:49:49.880
is the parasite, or as Andrew
Felix's father would say, a real estate

709
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:53.800
selling bastard. And the media and
the media and the media, as you

710
00:49:53.840 --> 00:50:00.800
mentioned, they don't they all contribute
to turn this into a pile of garbage.

711
00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:04.159
The whole discussion. Yeah, my
god, it's funny no, I'm

712
00:50:04.199 --> 00:50:06.639
sorry you mentioned to me. I'll
tell about the Cincinnati Reds for a second.

713
00:50:06.840 --> 00:50:08.760
They came out with these new uniforms
about two weeks ago, okay,

714
00:50:08.760 --> 00:50:10.599
and I looked at them and they
were black. First of all, I

715
00:50:10.599 --> 00:50:14.119
would never want to put that uniform
on when the temperatures like ninety five.

716
00:50:15.239 --> 00:50:17.280
Okay, okay. But they asked, they did like a survey. I'm

717
00:50:17.320 --> 00:50:21.280
watching the game on TV and listening. I'm a big one, you know,

718
00:50:21.519 --> 00:50:23.840
And then what do you like about
the uniform? Did you honestly think

719
00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:28.000
any one of those people would say, you know, I'm not particularly keen

720
00:50:28.039 --> 00:50:30.199
of the un Did you think that
anybody would have to hang it down to

721
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:35.400
say, really, I thought the
Reds were red, not black. Did

722
00:50:35.480 --> 00:50:38.519
anyone have the guts the units to
say? But now they were gushing,

723
00:50:38.719 --> 00:50:42.599
I love them, They're beautiful.
They would have said that before they saw

724
00:50:42.639 --> 00:50:45.880
the uniforms. I mean, maybe
I'm stupid, maybe I'm crazy. Maybe

725
00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:46.800
I'm like you say, I'm an
old easer. No, you don't know

726
00:50:46.800 --> 00:50:50.239
what being honest, you gotta be
true to yourself. You know who you

727
00:50:50.280 --> 00:50:52.519
are, you know what you are. Discounting the black jerseys, you're a

728
00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:58.199
red supremacist dandy. Well, maybe
I am. Maybe I am, And

729
00:50:58.639 --> 00:51:04.760
I liked the old red uniform.
Have no problem with that. Yeah,

730
00:51:02.440 --> 00:51:08.039
I don't hate you, but I
don't particularly like them. I am actually

731
00:51:08.119 --> 00:51:14.920
wearing a red red jersey with the
number twenty nine on it in honor of

732
00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:19.119
my old friend Tracy Jones. Yes, I'm wearing that right now as we

733
00:51:19.159 --> 00:51:22.159
speak. Listen. Thank you so
much. Yeah, thank you so much

734
00:51:22.159 --> 00:51:28.119
for taking time out of your convalescing
with your new hip. And get get

735
00:51:28.159 --> 00:51:31.000
back. Get back to normal,
man, get back to snuff. We

736
00:51:31.480 --> 00:51:36.639
want to say, we want to
see you out and about though, walking

737
00:51:36.679 --> 00:51:39.119
around. I'll be back. Well, I'm okay, I mean I'm getting

738
00:51:39.119 --> 00:51:42.119
around. Have you got it?
Have you got a Have you got a

739
00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:45.519
Gary Jeff Walker? I had one
for a day or two, and I

740
00:51:45.559 --> 00:51:49.039
got rid of that because that was
embarrassing. I mean, I got a

741
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:52.039
physical therapy at christ Hospital. I'm
in the waiting room with all these other

742
00:51:52.039 --> 00:51:54.960
people, with these walkers, and
what is this. I'm not like these

743
00:51:55.000 --> 00:51:58.440
people. I'm better than that.
So when I left, I threw it

744
00:51:58.440 --> 00:52:00.519
away. Then they gave me a
cane. I walk with a cave for

745
00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:04.239
a day or two. But I'm
kind of walking without the camp. But

746
00:52:04.360 --> 00:52:06.880
holy the cave for balanced fift in
case, well, that's a good arm

765
00:53:54.000 --> 00:53:59.679
episodes to go through a sud It
takes me. It takes me usually about

766
00:54:00.199 --> 00:54:02.639
three or four months to properly brand
something. So I'm working on it right

767
00:54:02.679 --> 00:54:07.920
now with my marketing team. Yeah, and I much are the other voices

768
00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:15.159
inside my head right, So a
couple of things. Obviously, a long

769
00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:19.920
holiday weekend and any advice you can
give, and when it comes to consuming

770
00:54:19.960 --> 00:54:23.840
alcohol is already too late for almost
everybody at this point on a Memorial Day

771
00:54:23.960 --> 00:54:29.280
night, but you know, there
was a lot, maybe not as much

772
00:54:29.360 --> 00:54:35.000
bud light consumed this weekend as there
were past Memorial Day weekends, but there

773
00:54:35.039 --> 00:54:37.840
was a lot of alcohol consumed,
a lot of beer, a lot of

774
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:40.800
wine, a lot of spirits.
And of course I am a bartender.

775
00:54:40.840 --> 00:54:45.599
That's my other job. So tell
me how I'm killing people, Rocco.

776
00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:54.480
Well, actually you're not killing people. Okay, they're literally well they're killing

777
00:54:54.480 --> 00:55:00.119
themselves in a way. Okay.
Personal accountability. That's we need more events,

778
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:07.239
any more of responsibility, more accountability. And uh. One thing that

779
00:55:07.400 --> 00:55:12.719
I did see this weekend though,
which was very, very wild, is

780
00:55:13.280 --> 00:55:21.599
that there are many more people drinking
non alcoholic beer. That's really really cool.

781
00:55:22.039 --> 00:55:25.280
And you know, and I actually
I drank a non alcoholic beer because

782
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:30.960
I don't I like the taste of
beer and there's nothing better. I don't

783
00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:36.159
care what anybody says. After you're
mowing the lawn, it's a really hot

784
00:55:36.280 --> 00:55:43.719
day and you grab a nice cold
beer and you could just chug it down.

785
00:55:43.800 --> 00:55:46.239
It just feels so good going down. Yeah, you're I've never been

786
00:55:46.280 --> 00:55:51.000
a beer guy. I'm I'm a
I'm more of a spirits guy myself.

787
00:55:51.199 --> 00:55:55.360
Well, and I used to be. After after mowing the lawn. I

788
00:55:55.400 --> 00:56:00.119
have a little postage stamp lawn there
in Southgate, Kentucky, So I usually

789
00:56:00.159 --> 00:56:04.320
mow mine and mow the next door
neighbors because I'm using his mower. I

790
00:56:04.360 --> 00:56:07.320
think it's only fair and to mow
both of them. It takes about twenty

791
00:56:07.360 --> 00:56:12.079
minutes. But on a hot daylight
today was you know, that's that's a

792
00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:14.920
lot of that's a lot of time
out in the sun. And my go

793
00:56:15.079 --> 00:56:21.480
to is unsweetened decaffe eated iced tea. Yeah. See I love that.

794
00:56:21.960 --> 00:56:25.199
Yeah, I love Uh is this
terrible for me? Actually? No,

795
00:56:25.199 --> 00:56:32.519
no caffeine. We've seen now that
up to four cups of coffee and and

796
00:56:32.960 --> 00:56:38.480
iced teas and and all that are
actually a good you know, uh well

797
00:56:38.559 --> 00:56:45.079
coffee is better than uh than iced
tea. Uh, but you know,

798
00:56:45.159 --> 00:56:47.519
a green tea is going to be
the best. But getting back to the

799
00:56:47.559 --> 00:56:52.800
alcohol thing. One thing that I
had to Yeah, I know, I

800
00:56:52.880 --> 00:56:59.920
know this is not the commercial you
were hoping for for for my bar too,

801
00:57:00.320 --> 00:57:04.960
but the bo attending school or whatever. Yeah. So one, uh

802
00:57:05.000 --> 00:57:09.719
one big thing that I learned and
why I don't drink anymore is because I

803
00:57:09.800 --> 00:57:16.840
figured I found out because I didn't
realize until I realized how much poison I

804
00:57:16.920 --> 00:57:22.679
was literally putting in my in my
body. And and we've heard this ethanol

805
00:57:23.360 --> 00:57:29.719
is you know, is a poison
to the brain. Um. A really

806
00:57:30.480 --> 00:57:37.440
crazy weird thing is that ethanol goes
in the body and that's poison. But

807
00:57:37.719 --> 00:57:45.440
the liver has to convert it to
a more dangerous poison called acetal analone.

808
00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:53.000
And that's what actually uh makes you
intoxicated. That process fault. It's the

809
00:57:53.079 --> 00:57:59.000
liver's fault, absolutely, the liver's
fault, right, And the liver has

810
00:57:59.039 --> 00:58:02.159
to do a lot of different things, and that's one of them. So

811
00:58:02.320 --> 00:58:09.679
it converts poison into a more dangerous
poison. And then and then just to

812
00:58:09.800 --> 00:58:14.000
get rid I was gonna say,
I thought the liver's job was to get

813
00:58:14.079 --> 00:58:16.679
rid of the poison. R Right. It does, but it has to

814
00:58:16.719 --> 00:58:24.360
convert it. And then in order
to metabolize that poison, it has to

815
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:30.360
turn it to acetone, which if
you drank nailpox remove it, you would

816
00:58:30.679 --> 00:58:36.239
literally die, you right, your
poison, So it has to it has

817
00:58:36.280 --> 00:58:39.039
to you take it in poison.
It has to convert it to a more

818
00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:45.239
dangerous poison and then processes it and
turns it into acetone. Right, and

819
00:58:45.360 --> 00:58:49.360
then where does it so that you
could sweat so that you can metabolize it.

820
00:58:49.480 --> 00:58:57.039
So it goes through your liver again
and then your digestive system and your

821
00:58:57.079 --> 00:59:04.119
bloodstream and all of the time it's
affecting your brain, your tissue, you

822
00:59:04.119 --> 00:59:08.599
know, like the tissues. It's
dehydrating things. And I mean it's just

823
00:59:08.960 --> 00:59:16.639
wreaking havoc on your body. The
dehydration. Dehydration thing is a big part

824
00:59:16.679 --> 00:59:21.199
of why it's bad, isn't it. Well, it's it's one of them,

825
00:59:21.320 --> 00:59:23.079
you know, it's one of them. Um, I just don't like

826
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:31.280
that we're literally poisoning our brain.
And uh, and we're finding that people

827
00:59:31.360 --> 00:59:37.519
that regularly drank, right, and
this is the weird right, but this

828
00:59:37.679 --> 00:59:45.599
is the weird piece. Regularly means
not just every day, not just every

829
00:59:45.639 --> 00:59:52.920
weekend. Regularly. The brain looks
at if you drink every Friday, uh,

830
00:59:52.039 --> 00:59:59.079
two drinks, that would be considered
a regularly. If you drink once

831
00:59:59.119 --> 01:00:06.960
a month on a Friday, right, every every month, the brain remembers

832
01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:15.280
that. Now here's another insane piece
of the puzzle. With alcohol. Almost

833
01:00:15.400 --> 01:00:23.920
everyone, almost everyone who drinks alcohol
drinks it to destress. To you know,

834
01:00:24.199 --> 01:00:29.559
you have a drink or two to
kind of calm down your day was

835
01:00:29.679 --> 01:00:34.599
horrible or you have you know,
a million kids that yet or the day

836
01:00:34.760 --> 01:00:39.360
ended in in a y right,
that can be very stressful. Right when

837
01:00:39.400 --> 01:00:43.280
you realize there aren't any days of
the week that don't end in a y.

838
01:00:43.960 --> 01:00:46.239
You know, why why is this
happening? I know I'll find the

839
01:00:46.320 --> 01:00:52.679
answer in that bottle of Jack Daniels. Well, hopefully not the bottle.

840
01:00:52.800 --> 01:01:00.519
But so we we want more poisons. It's more poison, right, and

841
01:01:01.480 --> 01:01:07.519
they're protesting more poison, more poison, more poison, right. So so

842
01:01:07.079 --> 01:01:13.559
the thing about distressing, right,
the more alcohol that you put in your

843
01:01:13.559 --> 01:01:20.840
body, it actually lowers your baseline. So you have to drink more alcohol

844
01:01:21.639 --> 01:01:27.639
just to get to your baseline and
then to actually distress and to calm down.

845
01:01:28.800 --> 01:01:35.000
Now that so you literally have to
drink more in order to get the

846
01:01:35.079 --> 01:01:39.199
same effects that you started. So
I'm not I'm not stressed out anymore,

847
01:01:39.559 --> 01:01:45.920
but I'm within the limits of being
dead good consory of my bac well,

848
01:01:46.000 --> 01:01:52.280
and then and then it also affects
your sleep, your's acadian rhythm, all

849
01:01:52.320 --> 01:02:00.159
of that. So now not only
are you are you poisoning yourself and you're

850
01:02:00.199 --> 01:02:07.480
not really distressing, you're not sleeping
better, which is which sleep is literally

851
01:02:07.480 --> 01:02:13.119
the most important piece of everything else. But you know, you and I

852
01:02:13.119 --> 01:02:15.599
have talked a lot about the food
we take into our bodies and how it

853
01:02:15.599 --> 01:02:22.840
affects our health, Rocko. But
you say that sleep is even more important

854
01:02:22.920 --> 01:02:27.719
and a more important component of how
healthy you are, getting the proper rest

855
01:02:28.400 --> 01:02:30.880
than even what you put into your
body food wise. Right, Oh,

856
01:02:30.920 --> 01:02:37.400
it's yeah, because there's so much
confusion and there's so much a controversy out

857
01:02:37.440 --> 01:02:44.000
there on on what's the best diet, what's the best food intake? You

858
01:02:44.039 --> 01:02:51.239
know, paleo, keto, vegan, vegetarian, pscotarian, Yeah, I

859
01:02:51.280 --> 01:02:59.280
mean right, it's it's it's literally
like Lesbytarian lesbetarian. You can you see,

860
01:02:59.440 --> 01:03:01.360
I really don't know what Lesbytarians eat, but I've got an idea.

861
01:03:01.400 --> 01:03:07.400
Anyway, Well, continue, continue. We always have to go off the

862
01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:13.639
rails, just a little tiny bit, but just a little. So we

863
01:03:14.679 --> 01:03:22.519
so we have to um look at
not just all the all the different religion

864
01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:29.000
foods. Um. Right. So
that's why I like, I really like

865
01:03:29.079 --> 01:03:36.679
to go after sleep first, because
stress, eating, weight loss, alcohol,

866
01:03:37.239 --> 01:03:44.400
alcohol, all of that is is
literally related to how well you sleep.

867
01:03:44.760 --> 01:03:49.480
And most people don't even know why
we sleep, how we sleep.

868
01:03:49.920 --> 01:03:54.400
The whole thing about and then the
scene and and and then a scene is

869
01:03:54.440 --> 01:04:02.760
a really awesome chemical that cree yates
something called sleep pressure, right, and

870
01:04:02.840 --> 01:04:08.039
when you build up and denis scene
in your in your body, because it's

871
01:04:08.119 --> 01:04:15.079
always gonna be and denising and denis
yeah and denniscene, and that's that's what

872
01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:20.679
makes you groggy. But it also
creates something called sleep pressure, and that's

873
01:04:20.840 --> 01:04:29.119
what what builds you up to becoming
tired. And caffeine, which is the

874
01:04:29.159 --> 01:04:36.400
most abused and overused drug in the
world, um, actually uh tricks the

875
01:04:36.440 --> 01:04:42.280
body and actually masks and denis scene. So that, um, so you're

876
01:04:42.320 --> 01:04:46.159
not tired, you know. So
you're not tired. But then when it

877
01:04:47.000 --> 01:04:54.679
when the caffeine dissipates, it's got
it's got a half life of about five

878
01:04:54.760 --> 01:04:59.679
to seven hours. Uh, then
all of a sudden, you know that,

879
01:04:59.760 --> 01:05:04.320
and then is the boom. Every
day the wheels definitely fall off and

880
01:05:04.360 --> 01:05:11.519
you're tired. And and what the
research shows is that if you're overtired,

881
01:05:12.840 --> 01:05:18.239
Uh, if you're overtired, it's
worse than being drunk on the road.

882
01:05:18.559 --> 01:05:28.320
So right, so if they've actually
done studies like simulation studies that if they

883
01:05:28.360 --> 01:05:34.280
if you were overtired compared to if
you were impaired with alcohol, the sleep

884
01:05:34.360 --> 01:05:40.119
odd deprivation, you would be way
way worse or talking to Rocco Costellano on

885
01:05:40.159 --> 01:05:44.559
the night camp on this Memorial Day
night on seven LW Gary Jeff with Rocco.

886
01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:47.119
We got just a few minutes left, you were telling me and I

887
01:05:47.159 --> 01:05:51.199
did not know this. You just
kind of made a random remark when we

888
01:05:51.199 --> 01:05:58.440
were coming up the elevator tonight about
JFK. Junior, And yeah, I

889
01:05:58.480 --> 01:06:01.039
did not know that you had been
a personal trainer for JFK. Junior,

890
01:06:01.119 --> 01:06:05.480
the late President's son. Yeah,
it was years ago. I used to

891
01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:11.480
work for a company called called A
Plus one Fitness Clinic. And then,

892
01:06:12.159 --> 01:06:15.159
um, well it was very funny
because we had to kind of go in

893
01:06:15.159 --> 01:06:19.559
in a side elevated that A and
then up and then through all these different

894
01:06:19.599 --> 01:06:24.880
things. And it reminded me of
what I had to do because I was

895
01:06:25.320 --> 01:06:30.599
invited to train him at his at
his apartment in a New York City,

896
01:06:30.960 --> 01:06:38.400
but I had to sneak in as
as a janitor, uh, in a

897
01:06:38.559 --> 01:06:45.039
janitor outfit so that the the paparazzi
wouldn't wouldn't bother me. And and how

898
01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:48.400
did you get that connection through your
company? I mean you your training ken

899
01:06:50.320 --> 01:06:58.880
A clinic was uh was at at
work at one World Trade Center and he

900
01:06:58.960 --> 01:07:04.119
used to come there as as as
a client, and he seemed to like

901
01:07:04.280 --> 01:07:08.199
me, and and I was,
you know, I was a really good,

902
01:07:08.400 --> 01:07:12.519
you know, a trainer at the
time, and he liked my philosophy

903
01:07:12.639 --> 01:07:16.079
and the way that I trained build
because I trained with something called a manual

904
01:07:16.480 --> 01:07:26.199
a resistance training, which was me
simulating weights and it was it becomes a

905
01:07:26.320 --> 01:07:32.079
much much faster workout and I can
then control the speed of you know,

906
01:07:32.159 --> 01:07:38.639
of the movement. I could control
the weight I could I could control the

907
01:07:38.760 --> 01:07:45.800
concentric contraction and the eccentric a contraction. What was John John like? He

908
01:07:45.920 --> 01:07:53.440
was? He was U He was
the most wonderful person that I've ever I've

909
01:07:53.440 --> 01:07:59.719
ever met. You would never realize
that he was as as popular and way

910
01:08:00.360 --> 01:08:02.239
hold on a second, the most
wonderful person you've ever met. And I'm

911
01:08:02.280 --> 01:08:04.960
sitting right here. You really know
how to hurt my feeling? Well,

912
01:08:05.000 --> 01:08:11.440
you know it is it is what
it is that no, I mean,

913
01:08:12.239 --> 01:08:18.079
yeah, he was absolutely wonderful.
And I was just a regular guy.

914
01:08:18.399 --> 01:08:25.000
Like there was nothing pretentious about him, even though there was so much pretense

915
01:08:25.119 --> 01:08:29.880
security around him that they had,
Like you said, you had to dress

916
01:08:29.920 --> 01:08:32.239
as a janitor and go up a
you know, a big elevator or whatever

917
01:08:32.319 --> 01:08:36.840
to go meet him. Well,
the security it was weird. You never

918
01:08:36.920 --> 01:08:43.560
saw the security and we were just
I was just told, hey, you

919
01:08:43.760 --> 01:08:49.239
may want to do this because if
you know they're gonna be asking your questions

920
01:08:49.279 --> 01:08:55.239
are the paparazzi is are just vicious, vicious, and they're gonna try to

921
01:08:55.279 --> 01:08:59.119
like trick you. They're gonna try
to figure out if they find out that

922
01:08:59.680 --> 01:09:03.600
my you're my trainer, then it's
gonna be uh, They're gonna be in

923
01:09:03.680 --> 01:09:08.800
your face all the time, all
the time. And back then I was

924
01:09:08.920 --> 01:09:15.720
not the nice guy that I am
now. I was really I was really

925
01:09:15.960 --> 01:09:18.000
back when you had that problem with
your brain. Yes, yeah, yeah,

926
01:09:18.000 --> 01:09:23.760
I liked I really liked hitting people. What's what's What's new? Train

927
01:09:23.800 --> 01:09:28.079

Goldman, Sachs and all that, and

932
01:09:48.920 --> 01:09:55.960
they all loved all the new technology
that would bringing to the market when it

933
01:09:56.000 --> 01:10:00.279
comes to PEMF, like the brand
new coal plunge stuff we have. We

934
01:10:00.359 --> 01:10:05.079
have. There was a really cool
thing that I can't I'll wait to get

935
01:10:05.119 --> 01:10:12.159
in to trained with Rocco. Is
called is called the body Activator. All

936
01:10:12.199 --> 01:10:15.039
right, So I'll look out there, we'll watch for the body Activator,

937
01:10:15.079 --> 01:10:19.680
the PEMF, the coal plunge.
It's trained with Rocco dot com. And

you can go to five nineteen Madison
Avenue in Covington whenever Rocco is going to

939

Jeff, thank you so much.
All right, bye. The Nightcab continues

942
01:10:33.800 --> 01:10:40.520
on seven HULW. I hate sitting
in this examining room waiting for the doctor.

943
01:10:40.800 --> 01:10:44.159
I'd much rather be listening to Scott
Sloan. Oh. Waiting and one

944
01:10:44.199 --> 01:10:46.520
of those paper gowns is rough.
But listening to my show is a good

945
01:10:46.560 --> 01:10:50.399
time. We take on the topics
that actually affect you and your family,

946

and we have a bunch of fun
doing it. Plus Sloaney has never slapped

01:11:15.920 --> 01:11:19.119
And you know, with as few
shows as I've got on the schedule,

953
01:11:19.199 --> 01:11:25.039
on the schedule as the Brits like
to say I have, I always want

954
01:11:25.039 --> 01:11:30.479
to pack my few opportunities with my
favorite guests and people that have wonderful insight

955
01:11:30.279 --> 01:11:34.680
and I just like talking with And
I've got one of those right now for

956
01:11:34.720 --> 01:11:40.680
this half hour, the one and
only spouting off the Mistress of spouting off

957
01:11:41.439 --> 01:11:45.439
Karen Karen Cataline from Deep in the
Heart of Texas. How are you on

958
01:11:45.479 --> 01:11:53.319
this Memorial Day night. I am
doing well, and we're all sat a

959
01:11:53.399 --> 01:11:59.800
prayer for those who gave their last
full measure for our country. And I've

960
01:12:00.159 --> 01:12:03.079
yeah, so we can get into
it. But I've talked to a few

961
01:12:03.079 --> 01:12:06.439
people who said, God, it's
depressing, you know, because what if

962
01:12:06.479 --> 01:12:11.720
they give their lives for for this, I don't think so. Yeah,

963
01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:15.279
the other side of that coin,
no for me. Karen Is and Johnny

964
01:12:15.359 --> 01:12:23.560
Joey Jones. You know the veteran
who lost both of his legs and I

965
01:12:23.560 --> 01:12:27.600
don't know if you've seen him before. He's on Fox News alone, Johnny

966
01:12:27.680 --> 01:12:30.399
Joey Jones. That's why I haven't
seen him. I don't have Fox all

967
01:12:30.479 --> 01:12:35.399
right, Johnny Johnny Joey Jones.
In reference to Memorial Day and the people

968
01:12:35.560 --> 01:12:42.960
disrespecting in many people's eyes, the
memories of those who sacrificed everything, he

969
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:48.520
said, we do it ultimately for
people who don't appreciate it. I mean,

970
01:12:48.560 --> 01:12:53.840
that's part of the creed of the
code. So you know, questioning

971
01:12:54.359 --> 01:13:00.880
why they did it maybe isn't the
right question, But how we should react

972
01:13:00.960 --> 01:13:06.920
to what they do is the question. Well, I know why they did

973
01:13:06.960 --> 01:13:18.319
it, and I'm I'm disturbed by
the direction the country is gone. And

974
01:13:19.239 --> 01:13:25.199
just to clarify, I didn't mean
literally you know, why did they do

975
01:13:25.279 --> 01:13:28.279
it? Sure, I know what
why they did it. They did it

976
01:13:28.319 --> 01:13:30.560
for honor, they did it for
the love of our country as it was

977
01:13:30.640 --> 01:13:35.560
founded. And that's why many of
us are heartsick about what's going on today.

978
01:13:35.760 --> 01:13:43.359
Absolutely to make such a broad general
uh thing I think is the right

979
01:13:43.399 --> 01:13:46.039
word for many of us. Yes, yes, yes, And so when

980
01:13:46.079 --> 01:13:51.239
I say why did they do it, it's really a rhetorical question to ask

981
01:13:54.000 --> 01:14:00.720
what a stain on their memory that
we have people today who are not remembering

982
01:14:01.479 --> 01:14:10.800
how precious liberty, individual liberty truly
is, that people in our country knew

983
01:14:10.800 --> 01:14:16.399
and understood what a precious gift it
is to live in a country that revers

984
01:14:16.760 --> 01:14:23.960
our God given liberties and to find
people who are selling those out today and

985
01:14:24.199 --> 01:14:29.800
others who have been dumbed down to
such a degree that they don't know how

986
01:14:29.880 --> 01:14:35.119
precious liberty is. And it's always
more precious when you've lost it, and

987
01:14:35.199 --> 01:14:40.000
it's damned difficult to get it back
when you've lost it, no doubt.

988
01:14:40.279 --> 01:14:45.760
And people in people from eastern former
Eastern Bloc countries or communist countries who come

989
01:14:45.800 --> 01:14:50.319
here say that every day. Every
day. I want to Scott Powell,

990
01:14:50.359 --> 01:14:58.560
who we both know and who's wonderful
right writing for the Federalist today, and

991
01:14:58.600 --> 01:15:01.640
he said when Americans sacrifice their lives
in military service, it was not just

992
01:15:01.680 --> 01:15:06.000
to defend the United States, but
to uphold the natural rights associated with the

993
01:15:06.079 --> 01:15:11.000
nation's founding, and he goes on, in the last few generations of Americans.

994
01:15:11.039 --> 01:15:15.920
If the last few generations of Americans
understood the origin and meaning of Memorial

995
01:15:15.000 --> 01:15:19.239
Day, we might have avoided the
trauma of division and corruption that now threatens

996
01:15:19.239 --> 01:15:25.439
the United States as never before.
Memorial Day was founded on the biblical ideals

997
01:15:25.479 --> 01:15:31.600
of forgiveness and reconciliation shortly after the
Civil War. That conflict cost at least

998
01:15:31.880 --> 01:15:36.960
six hundred and twenty thousand men more
casualties than all of America's other wars combined.

999
01:15:39.560 --> 01:15:42.279
So I mean, but he goes
on, and he says, Memorial

1000
01:15:42.399 --> 01:15:49.880
Day, then is it's more about
the basic ideals the country was founded upon

1001
01:15:50.359 --> 01:15:56.239
even then the defense of the United
States as an entity as a country,

1002
01:15:56.279 --> 01:16:01.159
that it's the defense of the ideals
of the republic. You agree with absolutely,

1003
01:16:01.199 --> 01:16:05.279
I do. And I also was
touched by what you said about that.

1004
01:16:05.479 --> 01:16:08.960
You know, when you thought I'm
in something different, I meant to

1005
01:16:09.039 --> 01:16:17.119
say that when you said they did
it for people who don't understand, well,

1006
01:16:17.159 --> 01:16:25.520
that's true of protecting our freedoms and
protecting other people for it. As

1007
01:16:25.560 --> 01:16:30.239
an example, our first Amendment,
our first Amendment, is not only for

1008
01:16:30.319 --> 01:16:36.000
those things we dislike that we must
stand up for other people's rights to say.

1009
01:16:36.640 --> 01:16:46.079
But we I hope patriots listeners to
your show certainly understand that that when

1010
01:16:46.479 --> 01:16:51.079
we stand up for other people's rights
to say what we don't like, we

1011
01:16:51.359 --> 01:16:57.079
are standing up for our own rights
to say what other people don't like.

1012
01:16:57.319 --> 01:17:03.479
That our freedom depends on other people's
understanding of it, because if they don't

1013
01:17:03.560 --> 01:17:08.159
understand it, they're gonna think they're
gonna be one more sentence. I know

1014
01:17:08.199 --> 01:17:11.479
you're going to talk to So don't
forget what you're gonna say. They do

1015
01:17:11.560 --> 01:17:19.520
not understand that if you can convince
ignorant people that words and ideas and thinking

1016
01:17:19.600 --> 01:17:27.159
differently are dangerous and a threat to
this country, then you can outlaw them

1017
01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:30.159
just like that. All you have
to do is tell people this is a

1018
01:17:30.199 --> 01:17:35.560
threat to democracy, and let's not
talk about democracy versus republic. It's a

1019
01:17:35.640 --> 01:17:42.439
threat to our country. So this
is the fraud that they're perpetrating that thinking

1020
01:17:42.479 --> 01:17:47.640
differently dissent is a threat, But
of course rioting in the streets and burning

1021
01:17:47.680 --> 01:17:55.279
down Wendy's is not a threat,
And that is a bastardization. Turning upside

1022
01:17:55.319 --> 01:18:03.640
down exactly what our founders knew is
that descent and tolerance for descent is the

1023
01:18:03.920 --> 01:18:11.399
first Amendment for a reason. YEA, Free speech matters, Karen, Free

1024
01:18:11.439 --> 01:18:18.520
speech match, f M M F
M F Do we need Do we need

1025
01:18:18.640 --> 01:18:27.560
like a new group called FSM Free
Speech Matter? Remember Speech Matter? I

1026
01:18:27.560 --> 01:18:30.880
want to see that painted down that
boulevard in Washington, d C. See

1027
01:18:30.920 --> 01:18:34.680
how long that last? All right? So speaking of speaking of DC real

1028
01:18:34.720 --> 01:18:39.159
quick, and we're taking the day
off politically for the most part, although

1029
01:18:39.239 --> 01:18:44.279
not yet. Um. Karen Cataline
our guest on the nightcap. Um.

1030
01:18:45.279 --> 01:18:51.199
The whole debt ceiling kabuki theater that's
been going on for well really for the

1031
01:18:51.279 --> 01:18:57.600
past whatever three four or five months. Kevin McCarthy is known, Joe Biden

1032
01:18:57.720 --> 01:19:00.840
is known, they've all known that
this was coming up, and they push

1033
01:19:00.880 --> 01:19:06.720
it right up to Janet Yellen's you
know, whatever imaginary date that they've got

1034
01:19:06.720 --> 01:19:12.840
to get it done in or the
country defaults on its loans. And it's

1035
01:19:12.960 --> 01:19:16.560
this way every time, whether it's
a budget or raising the debt ceiling,

1036
01:19:17.119 --> 01:19:20.840
or whether it's city government. And
we see it in Cincinnati. You know

1037
01:19:20.880 --> 01:19:25.319
that they kick the can down the
road until there's no more road left.

1038
01:19:25.359 --> 01:19:29.760
And then they got to figure out
how to put together a budget that actually

1039
01:19:29.800 --> 01:19:33.399
works, and state governments do it, and of course the federal government,

1040
01:19:34.039 --> 01:19:40.239
where there's so much obesity, so
much large ass and so much centralized power

1041
01:19:41.279 --> 01:19:45.239
that you know, you figure they
would have figured this out before now.

1042
01:19:45.520 --> 01:19:50.319
But it's all part of the political
process, and it's posturing and it's virtue

1043
01:19:50.359 --> 01:19:55.279
signaling, and they all blame each
other for not getting it done on time.

1044
01:19:55.560 --> 01:19:58.920
We've got to get the country's going
to default. Well, you've only

1045
01:19:58.960 --> 01:20:02.800
known about that for you know how
many ever long ass months, and you

1046
01:20:02.800 --> 01:20:08.720
haven't done anything about it until the
very end. That procrastination doesn't even cover

1047
01:20:08.840 --> 01:20:12.079
the word that I'm thinking of,
because the word that I'm thinking of probably

1048
01:20:12.079 --> 01:20:16.279
shouldn't even better uttered on the air
legally. So. But it has something

1049
01:20:16.359 --> 01:20:24.119
to do with BS, which you
can say, I believe the airs letters

1050
01:20:24.239 --> 01:20:28.560
B spsps. Well, what I
like, what I liked what I call

1051
01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:34.039
bovine fecal samples. There you go, bovine fecal samples. You know,

1052
01:20:34.159 --> 01:20:42.279
whenever it seems as if these days, whenever the government is fearmongering on something

1053
01:20:43.159 --> 01:20:47.520
you shouldn't worry when the government tells
you don't worry, that's when you should

1054
01:20:47.560 --> 01:20:51.439
start worrying. That's an excellent point. I thought about it that way.

1055
01:20:51.600 --> 01:20:56.880
Oh, I mean absolutely. I
mean look what they did. You can

1056
01:20:56.920 --> 01:21:00.880
just point to case after case after
case, and when there is something to

1057
01:21:00.920 --> 01:21:05.680
worry about, and you start asking
questions about that thing that you're worried about,

1058
01:21:08.319 --> 01:21:15.319
it makes people like you and me
realize and validate that there's something to

1059
01:21:15.359 --> 01:21:21.079
worry about. When they persecute people
for asking questions about that which they are

1060
01:21:21.119 --> 01:21:28.840
worried about. If you are not
allowed to ask questions or dissent, then

1061
01:21:29.039 --> 01:21:31.920
that's when you should start worrying.
Apropos of the point I made before,

1062
01:21:32.600 --> 01:21:40.039
and I love your characterization, there's
we need about three more adjectives. Kabuki

1063
01:21:40.079 --> 01:21:46.319
theater. What is not kabuki theater? Today? All of it seems to

1064
01:21:46.439 --> 01:21:55.720
be spoon fed to us in order
to keep us entertained, keep us distracted,

1065
01:21:55.880 --> 01:22:02.319
keep us constantly, push narratives over
and over and over again, until

1066
01:22:03.439 --> 01:22:11.199
the social pressure for not believing something
is so high that most people, except

1067
01:22:11.239 --> 01:22:16.479
for defiant curs like you and me
and your listeners in mine, they just

1068
01:22:16.560 --> 01:22:23.720
go along just to get along.
That's what they want. They want people

1069
01:22:24.119 --> 01:22:29.000
to do that. I've seen examples
of it again and again and again.

1070
01:22:29.479 --> 01:22:35.479
It isn't just victim virtue signaling.
It's the whole notion that you don't have

1071
01:22:35.560 --> 01:22:43.880
to think anymore because the social narrative
that they fed you has done it all

1072
01:22:43.960 --> 01:22:48.640
for you. It's like presoftened bubblegum. Right, you already know from the

1073
01:22:48.720 --> 01:22:55.600
moment that a horrible crime, crime
has happened, who's guilty, who you

1074
01:22:55.640 --> 01:23:00.680
should blame? And they've thrown out
as you know, they've thrown out innocent

1075
01:23:00.760 --> 01:23:06.560
until proven guilty. They've thrown out
until a judge of your jury, of

1076
01:23:06.600 --> 01:23:14.920
your peers can find the facts in
that instance, all of it spoon fed

1077
01:23:15.640 --> 01:23:20.560
for our benefit, including this budget
thing I still have. I'm such a

1078
01:23:20.600 --> 01:23:26.760
dinosaur. I still have AOL.
And whenever I see the jumping up and

1079
01:23:26.760 --> 01:23:31.479
down and jumping up and down of
AOL, HuffPo and every day on page

1080
01:23:31.560 --> 01:23:35.159
number one is another story about the
bet ceiling, the bed ceiling. I

1081
01:23:35.319 --> 01:23:40.520
just pass it and say they'll figure
it out, and both of them will

1082
01:23:40.560 --> 01:23:45.319
sell out a certain amount, and
they'll both scream foul. They'll both cry

1083
01:23:45.520 --> 01:23:48.840
foul that the other side, and
you know what, most times they're working

1084
01:23:48.880 --> 01:23:55.760
together. It is theater, all
of it. And I might add we

1085
01:23:55.760 --> 01:24:00.199
were not going to talk about this, but I think the Republican primary is

1086
01:24:00.199 --> 01:24:04.079
going to be a lot of it, most of the kubuki theater, with

1087
01:24:04.119 --> 01:24:11.640
the Democrats egging people on to be
at each other's throats, egging on candidates

1088
01:24:11.720 --> 01:24:16.640
that nobody likes and yet they're running
anyway, egging on candidates to stick it

1089
01:24:16.680 --> 01:24:20.880
to Donald Trump so he won't even
run because that's the one they're most afraid

1090
01:24:20.920 --> 01:24:26.000
of. But that Yet, the
elephant in the living room is if they

1091
01:24:26.079 --> 01:24:30.119
have elections sewn up. As much
as Katie mc McFarlane says so, and

1092
01:24:30.279 --> 01:24:34.479
she's seen a thing or two in
her time, the elephant in the living

1093
01:24:34.560 --> 01:24:42.720
room is that they really don't care
because they could. They could possibly,

1094
01:24:42.760 --> 01:24:48.079
it's possible that they could run and
get elected John Fetterman if they wanted to.

1095
01:24:48.880 --> 01:24:53.680
I mean, what is Joe Biden
accept another version of John Fetterman?

1096
01:24:54.079 --> 01:24:58.479
Right? Oh yeah, I mean
with maybe without the stroke. But yes,

1097
01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:02.439
you want to talk about meaning power, stroke, meaning power. He

1098
01:25:02.479 --> 01:25:06.920
doesn't have as much stroke as Joe
Biden. Okay, you can look at

1099
01:25:06.920 --> 01:25:13.840
it that way. Whatever you know, there's been there's been blood cut off

1100
01:25:13.840 --> 01:25:17.600
to the brain and in Joe's in
Joe's case, I'm not sure there's even

1101
01:25:17.640 --> 01:25:23.920
blood running through his entire body.
I'm not sure. It's give us a

1102
01:25:23.960 --> 01:25:28.640
new term name to the term bloodless
coup. And by the way, what

1103
01:25:28.680 --> 01:25:33.920
we're talking about, what we're talking
about right now is talk radio with a

1104
01:25:34.000 --> 01:25:41.760
grand tradition of descent, debate,
discussion. And do you know that many,

1105
01:25:41.800 --> 01:25:44.560
many people who may be listening,
I don't know if they're listening or

1106
01:25:44.600 --> 01:25:50.479
not, they think that our discussion
here is somehow um um, what do

1107
01:25:50.520 --> 01:25:56.359
you call it? It's it's treason
us to talk about something different. Can

1108
01:25:56.399 --> 01:26:02.760
you imagine the radical the leftists of
the sixties if we told them where we'd

1109
01:26:02.760 --> 01:26:09.119
be today. Many of them are
here today and have abandoned every principle they

1110
01:26:09.239 --> 01:26:14.640
ever had to think that you can
have a discussion in which one person is

1111
01:26:14.680 --> 01:26:18.880
thinking outside of the box and they're
going to get punished for having uttered an

1112
01:26:18.880 --> 01:26:24.439
opinion that other people don't like or
agree with. Give me for just tacking

1113
01:26:24.479 --> 01:26:30.359
that on the street. The street
preacher in Arkansas who was arrested a year

1114
01:26:30.439 --> 01:26:38.960
after an event where he was railing
against LGBTQ supporting businesses. He got arrested

1115
01:26:39.039 --> 01:26:46.000
on a misdemeanor harassment charge a year
after this harassment. Who was the victim?

1116
01:26:46.239 --> 01:26:49.800
I mean, who is the claimed
victim? Here? A restaurant You

1117
01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:54.800
said something I didn't like? Oh, yes, a restaurant owner that he

1118
01:26:54.920 --> 01:26:59.399
was in front of her restaurant.
He's you know, and he was he

1119
01:26:59.479 --> 01:27:01.359
was street reaching out in front of
it. The thing was, it was

1120
01:27:01.439 --> 01:27:05.319
Sunday and the restaurant was closed.
There was nobody there and it was a

1121
01:27:05.479 --> 01:27:13.239
closed restaurant and away and after the
fact she filed charges that nobody ever bothered

1122
01:27:13.279 --> 01:27:15.520
to tell him about. And then
they picked him other pulled him over and

1123
01:27:15.560 --> 01:27:20.920
picked him up for basically, uh, exhibiting his right to freedom of speech.

1124
01:27:20.960 --> 01:27:24.439
With that, we need to we
need to close this out. But

1125
01:27:24.520 --> 01:27:29.479
I want to thank you for making
our Memorial Day night to call memorable.

1126
01:27:30.079 --> 01:27:33.479
Well, you are always memorable.
It's an honor and a pleasure to be

1127
01:27:33.560 --> 01:27:36.840
with you. And maybe we all
say a prayer for this country, not

1128
01:27:36.960 --> 01:27:43.079
just on Memorial Day but every day, that liberty will be restored in this

1129
01:27:43.159 --> 01:27:48.199
country. And I just don't buy
into the divisiveness. Yeah, right and

1130
01:27:48.359 --> 01:27:54.039
right soon KK. Thank you Karen
Cataline dot com. If you want to

1131
01:27:54.039 --> 01:28:00.479
find Karen. We'll continue in moments
on seven HUNDLW. Rocco's coming up next.

1132
01:28:00.560 --> 01:28:04.439
It's a mussy. If you're in
Bristol, Connecticut, North America's tallest

1133
01:28:04.479 --> 01:28:11.920
elevator test tower, we hear the
tests and their pumps and downs. Wherever

1134
01:28:12.000 --> 01:28:15.880
you roam, take us with you. Listen to the seven hundred WLW limestream

1135
01:28:15.920 --> 01:28:20.920
on the iHeart Radio ad the roar
of the crowd singing as one on this

1136
01:28:21.159 --> 01:28:27.399
nightcap, on this Memorial Day night, A conversation with somebody that I've missed

1137
01:28:27.399 --> 01:28:30.479
talking to and with the small amount
of shows that I've had to do here

1138
01:28:30.800 --> 01:28:34.640
since Red's baseball kicked, and I
don't get many opportunities, and I wanted

1139
01:28:34.680 --> 01:28:42.119
to bring him back because this debate
is still raging full on, against against

1140
01:28:42.159 --> 01:28:49.399
science, against God, and against
the rights and protecting young people in this

1141
01:28:49.479 --> 01:28:56.720
country when it comes to this trans
movement, this grooming of kids who don't

1142
01:28:56.840 --> 01:29:01.359
understand what they're doing when they're taking
the hormone and don't understand what it actually

1143
01:29:01.439 --> 01:29:08.760
means when someone suggests to them that
they need major reassignment surgery. And kids

1144
01:29:09.960 --> 01:29:13.399
are you know? They, like
I said, they have no idea,

1145
01:29:13.680 --> 01:29:16.079
They can't fathom what they're doing,
the kind of decision that they're making.

1146
01:29:16.640 --> 01:29:21.359
Like I never made many great decisions
when I was twelve and thirteen and fourteen

1147
01:29:21.439 --> 01:29:28.399
years old, as I remember.
But this guy is a former female impersona

1148
01:29:28.920 --> 01:29:33.600
entertainer who was legendary for his Brittany
Spears when he was doing that, and

1149
01:29:33.680 --> 01:29:39.600
now today he has made it his
mission to fight for the children of America,

1150
01:29:39.840 --> 01:29:44.800
to fight to bring God back into
our society. And that mission is

1151
01:29:44.840 --> 01:29:49.359
something that I will help join him
in any time he allows me a chance

1152
01:29:49.399 --> 01:29:55.319
to talk. Lady Maga Ryan Wood, good evening, How are you,

1153
01:29:55.359 --> 01:30:00.920
sir, Good evening, Hello from
beautiful Utah on this fine Memorial Day.

1154
01:30:02.399 --> 01:30:09.560
Just a quick correction there, I
did do Britney Spears and cause play and

1155
01:30:09.600 --> 01:30:14.000
all of that. I will always
enjoy dressing up. And the reason I

1156
01:30:14.039 --> 01:30:20.199
still dress up as Lady Maga Usa
is because it's a visual science of the

1157
01:30:20.359 --> 01:30:26.960
narrative that if you're a theatrical person, or you're a boy who liked barbies

1158
01:30:27.039 --> 01:30:31.439
or pink who are not the opposite
gender, you are not to invade women's

1159
01:30:31.479 --> 01:30:35.880
sports spaces or locker rooms, and
you're not to use it as an excuse

1160
01:30:36.359 --> 01:30:43.199
to label a child and abuse them
emotionally and physically by telling them they're in

1161
01:30:43.239 --> 01:30:47.439
the wrong body. So my dress
up, you know, wigs, makeup,

1162
01:30:47.479 --> 01:30:51.840
theatrics. It used to be for
fun until I had to step away

1163
01:30:51.920 --> 01:31:00.399
from the lgbt QI alphabet dangerous mafia, and now it's primarily a political tool.

1164
01:31:00.000 --> 01:31:04.239
Here in Utah, we got House
Bill or Senate Bill sixteen pass.

1165
01:31:04.880 --> 01:31:11.960
I testified with Senator Michael Kennedy and
a woman named Chloe Cole, an eighteen

1166
01:31:12.039 --> 01:31:18.000
year old who was butchered underage.
And one of the reasons my message comes

1167
01:31:18.039 --> 01:31:23.840
across and helps people understand is because
I've always loved Barbie. I've always loved

1168
01:31:23.880 --> 01:31:28.159
dress up, and there's good and
bad in all things. And right now,

1169
01:31:28.720 --> 01:31:31.279
drag queen, which is what I
used to call myself, now I

1170
01:31:31.319 --> 01:31:39.920
just call myself a costume artists.
They are in schools indoctrinating and sexualizing children.

1171
01:31:40.520 --> 01:31:44.159
They're not dressing up for theatrics.
They're not dressing up for fun.

1172
01:31:45.039 --> 01:31:54.800
They are forcibly and manipulatively going into
our sacred spaces for children, and that

1173
01:31:55.000 --> 01:31:59.479
is why there is a huge backlash
against anybody who likes to dress up.

1174
01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:02.520
And the majority of fun drag queens
who you know, Aretha Franklin, some

1175
01:32:02.680 --> 01:32:06.640
fat black guy who likes to be
Aretha Franklin, nobody cared and no one

1176
01:32:06.680 --> 01:32:15.039
does care. But the reason there's
this backlash is because a loud and annoying

1177
01:32:15.199 --> 01:32:21.239
and obnoxious and dangerous portion of drag
queens have decided to make it their mission

1178
01:32:21.279 --> 01:32:26.880
to make it for children, and
it should not be no, So that's

1179
01:32:27.159 --> 01:32:31.600
it's it's and they're using drag queens
and dress up. Keep in mind,

1180
01:32:31.640 --> 01:32:35.720
the whole point of a female,
a man dressing up like that, Like

1181
01:32:35.800 --> 01:32:42.319
the reason the movie Some Like It
Hot with Marilyn Monroe is hilarious is because

1182
01:32:42.359 --> 01:32:45.720
we know that's a man, and
doesn't he look fabulous. This is hilarious.

1183
01:32:45.760 --> 01:32:49.840
This is comedy, this is theater. So they've they've erased that,

1184
01:32:50.600 --> 01:32:55.920
and they're using the fact that some
men like myself are theatrical and fun.

1185
01:32:56.199 --> 01:33:00.760
They're using that to push some transagenda
because the gay agenda is over America was

1186
01:33:00.960 --> 01:33:06.600
over the fact that their neighbors are
lesbians. Nobody cares literally, the battle

1187
01:33:06.680 --> 01:33:11.479
was won. Nobody's getting thrown off
the building, nobody's getting beat up.

1188
01:33:11.520 --> 01:33:15.239
You know, it's not illegal.
There was no need to push the gay

1189
01:33:15.279 --> 01:33:21.000
movement any further, but it's lucrative. It's a business. The Human Rights

1190
01:33:21.079 --> 01:33:28.199
campaign target stores. They need that
victim narrative to expand, which is why

1191
01:33:28.239 --> 01:33:31.760
the narratives no longer about common sense
gay people like myself. I'm just gay,

1192
01:33:31.840 --> 01:33:36.239
y'all. I'm not an alphabet.
They had they had to, They

1193
01:33:36.279 --> 01:33:42.079
had to create a new victim narrative, and what better narrative than to involve

1194
01:33:42.479 --> 01:33:46.680
children, call them trans and say
we're saving their lives. It's about power,

1195
01:33:46.960 --> 01:33:50.880
it's about money, and that is
what we are seeing today. So

1196
01:33:51.159 --> 01:33:58.520
gay's against groomers, Lady Maga USA, countless hundreds of thousands of common sense

1197
01:33:58.600 --> 01:34:02.680
gay and lesbian people are saying,
look, we're not LGBTQ, and we

1198
01:34:02.840 --> 01:34:08.560
do not understand why the trans t
was ever attached to us in the first

1199
01:34:08.600 --> 01:34:15.159
place. Most so called trans women
meaning a man, they are heterosexual,

1200
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:18.359
they keep their genitalia, and they
still sleep with women. So I don't

1201
01:34:18.439 --> 01:34:21.880
understand how I ever had to be
lumped in with them, And I just

1202
01:34:21.920 --> 01:34:27.760
made it very very clear that I'm
not part of the gay community. I'm

1203
01:34:27.800 --> 01:34:31.439
not part of the LGBTQ community.
I am an individualist, I am an

1204
01:34:31.479 --> 01:34:36.600
American, and I happen to be
gay. And the only reason I tell

1205
01:34:36.640 --> 01:34:42.199
people I'm gay is because evil things
are being done in my name, so

1206
01:34:42.359 --> 01:34:45.760
to speak. Yeah, And when
I when I dress up, I dress

1207
01:34:45.840 --> 01:34:48.880
up classy, I'm covered ne tote, you know, and I don't I

1208
01:34:48.920 --> 01:34:57.000
don't hold events that are child focused
trying to tell them about homosexuality, tell

1209
01:34:57.079 --> 01:35:00.600
them about gender fluidity. You're not
going to go in You're not going to

1210
01:35:00.680 --> 01:35:05.119
go into a public library and read
stories for five year olds in your get

1211
01:35:05.199 --> 01:35:11.319
up, in your costume. That
would be entirely inappropriate. Library is a

1212
01:35:11.760 --> 01:35:15.600
safe haveing for families to go and
have quiet time and read books, and

1213
01:35:15.680 --> 01:35:23.359
you know, the indoctrination of children. I don't need America's children to validate

1214
01:35:23.399 --> 01:35:28.840
me. I don't need them to
know anything about my sexuality. And in

1215
01:35:28.880 --> 01:35:31.399
my own family, I grew up
Mormon. I'm the youngest of eight children.

1216
01:35:31.439 --> 01:35:35.159
I have over fifty six nieces and
nephews and great nieces and nephews.

1217
01:35:35.560 --> 01:35:40.399
And when it comes time to have
a conversation about Uncle Ryan or Uncle Ryan

1218
01:35:40.520 --> 01:35:44.319
dressing up as Lady Maga or in
the past, you know Rapunzel or Britney

1219
01:35:44.359 --> 01:35:47.399
Spears. I go to the parents
first, and I say, how do

1220
01:35:47.439 --> 01:35:51.319
you want to address this topic?
And when I was married to my ex

1221
01:35:51.439 --> 01:35:55.319
husband, some of them said,
oh, it's fine in orders them as

1222
01:35:55.319 --> 01:35:58.720
your husband, that's fine with us. Do you see where I go first

1223
01:36:00.039 --> 01:36:03.279
the parings, yes, of course. And with my and with my religious

1224
01:36:03.319 --> 01:36:08.239
family members who love me, but
they don't like dress up and they don't

1225
01:36:08.279 --> 01:36:14.159
like gay. I say, okay, guess what you lead the conversation.

1226
01:36:14.479 --> 01:36:15.439
And if they have, if they
have a talk, they say, you

1227
01:36:15.479 --> 01:36:18.760
know what Uncle Ryan dresses up.
It's like hollowe. You know, he

1228
01:36:18.800 --> 01:36:23.079
could be Spider Man, he could
be he could be a unicorn, he

1229
01:36:23.079 --> 01:36:27.359
could be a strawberry. And he
likes to dress up. And of story,

1230
01:36:27.720 --> 01:36:32.600
no gender blurring, no explanations that
some boys are actually girls and they're

1231
01:36:32.600 --> 01:36:36.399
boarding the wrong party. And here's
about purity blockers, and you don't have

1232
01:36:36.439 --> 01:36:41.800
to never And when it comes to
the issue of homosexuality, I said,

1233
01:36:42.199 --> 01:36:45.840
that's totally fine. Who does Uncle
Ryan live with a special friend? And

1234
01:36:45.199 --> 01:36:51.039
of story, America's children belong to
America's parents, not the school, not

1235
01:36:51.119 --> 01:36:58.279
the LGBTQ, and not the government. Yes, and I'm out here mutah

1236
01:36:58.359 --> 01:37:00.479
fighting. I want to go to
mobal Zoo. It's a nice zoo here

1237
01:37:00.479 --> 01:37:05.479
in Utah. I go to their
website. June first is Family Pride Day,

1238
01:37:06.479 --> 01:37:12.479
and so I posted about it and
I message Jutah Parents United, and

1239
01:37:12.520 --> 01:37:15.399
everybody has ad messaged them. We
don't go to the zoo to see a

1240
01:37:15.439 --> 01:37:20.199
celebration of sexuality. We go to
the zoo to look at the polar bears.

1241
01:37:21.319 --> 01:37:25.039
Yeah, oh no, no,
no question. You said a couple

1242
01:37:25.079 --> 01:37:29.720
of things that are true, and
I want you to see the because these

1243
01:37:29.760 --> 01:37:36.520
two topics are being linked together by
this cabal, this trans industry. Another

1244
01:37:36.560 --> 01:37:42.720
industry that is about literally killing children, the abortion industry. And it's the

1245
01:37:42.800 --> 01:37:46.239
same group of political pedophiles who do
not care about children, do not care

1246
01:37:46.279 --> 01:37:51.479
about the promise of life that God
gave us all, don't care about the

1247
01:37:51.680 --> 01:37:58.039
parents. Obviously. You know,
people are in bad situations in Nebraska.

1248
01:37:58.079 --> 01:38:00.039
I don't know if you saw this
or not. Ryan, They were a

1249
01:38:00.319 --> 01:38:06.960
state senator there upon passage of a
bill approved by lawmakers sent to the governor

1250
01:38:08.399 --> 01:38:15.560
in Nebraska to sign it. Banned
sex change procedures for miners as well as

1251
01:38:15.600 --> 01:38:18.920
abortions after twelve weeks of pregnancy.
It seems like they're really into protecting children

1252
01:38:18.920 --> 01:38:23.920
in Nebraska, except for this lady. And you mentioned the loud, annoying,

1253
01:38:24.119 --> 01:38:28.159
insane arguments on the other side.
Let's listen to a little bit of

1254
01:38:29.079 --> 01:38:35.239
Nebraska State Senator Kayla mccavanaugh in the
middle of this as a as a kind

1255
01:38:35.239 --> 01:38:42.640
of sounding off her rejection of this
bill. Listened to her, everydy love

1256
01:38:42.720 --> 01:38:46.039
trans people, trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love

1257
01:38:46.119 --> 01:38:50.439
trans people. Trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love

1258
01:38:50.520 --> 01:38:55.560
trans people. Trans people belong here. She just gets more and more manic

1259
01:38:55.720 --> 01:39:00.119
love trans people, trans people belong
here, we need trans people, we

1260
01:39:00.199 --> 01:39:03.560
love trans people. Trans people belong
here, we need trans people, we

1261
01:39:03.640 --> 01:39:10.239
love trans people, trans people belong
Nothing in the Nebraska law outlawed trans people

1262
01:39:10.600 --> 01:39:16.359
adults. It was about no it
was about sex change change surgeries for minors.

1263
01:39:16.439 --> 01:39:23.439
And she goes off into this tirade. We still going, just goes

1264
01:39:23.479 --> 01:39:30.800
on. Let exactly, they're insane
because I've been when I testified to protect

1265
01:39:30.840 --> 01:39:35.119
children of Utah. Think goodness,
our bill passed, but I had to

1266
01:39:35.159 --> 01:39:41.000
be escorted to my car by the
Capitol police because of the mob that forms

1267
01:39:41.079 --> 01:39:45.159
screaming exactly the same phrases. You
know, trans people are here to say

1268
01:39:45.199 --> 01:39:49.720
whah blah blah blah. What she
should be saying is we need child mutilation,

1269
01:39:50.119 --> 01:39:57.760
we need mental illness, we need
increased suicide rates, we need increased

1270
01:39:57.760 --> 01:40:03.000
cancer rates, we need you know, sexualization of children. This is honestly,

1271
01:40:03.119 --> 01:40:10.159
I'm at the point where I'm listening
to a biography of King Henry the

1272
01:40:10.199 --> 01:40:15.760
eighth and the level of insanity under
his rule, of what he got away

1273
01:40:15.800 --> 01:40:18.399
with, of what he convinced people
to say out of fear, you know,

1274
01:40:18.520 --> 01:40:23.880
the king's sovereignty over the church.
It was thought police, it was

1275
01:40:23.920 --> 01:40:27.159
everything. And we look back and
think, oh, that's totally insanity.

1276
01:40:27.840 --> 01:40:32.079
We are living one of the most
insane, evil chapters of human history,

1277
01:40:32.279 --> 01:40:35.760
and it's so crazy that it's twenty
twenty three and we're supposed to be advanced.

1278
01:40:36.000 --> 01:40:43.680
We have digressed to a point of
savage assects and Mayans who justified human

1279
01:40:43.720 --> 01:40:47.560
sacrifice, human mutilation in the name
of their religion, and we would look

1280
01:40:47.560 --> 01:40:51.960
at that and say, oh,
that's insane. What's different between climbing a

1281
01:40:53.000 --> 01:40:58.039
pyramid and sacrificing a child on the
altar, then drugging them, cutting off

1282
01:40:58.079 --> 01:41:03.199
their breasts and or their genitation Eliah, rendering them infertile for life, quadrupling

1283
01:41:03.239 --> 01:41:09.359
their cancer risks. Knowing that you're
essentially killing this person, you're killing everything

1284
01:41:09.399 --> 01:41:14.840
that they are biologically created by God. It's just as evil. And I

1285
01:41:14.880 --> 01:41:18.760
think that parents who drug their children
and or give them as sectomy to a

1286
01:41:18.880 --> 01:41:27.319
young girl are should be prosecuted the
same way a child molester is prosecuted because

1287
01:41:27.359 --> 01:41:32.079
it is. It is horrific abuse. There's no sugarcoating what is happening to

1288
01:41:32.159 --> 01:41:40.640
these children. And hysterical emotional women
like that woman chanting that are They're no

1289
01:41:40.800 --> 01:41:45.920
better than savages in the jungle,
chanting around a campfire preparing a child sacrifice.

1290
01:41:46.119 --> 01:41:48.720
And I stand by what I'm saying. That is what they are.

1291
01:41:48.800 --> 01:41:55.079
They are child mutilators. That being
said, people like me, yes in

1292
01:41:55.199 --> 01:41:59.159
a wig, in a dress,
living life. There's nothing intrinsically evil about

1293
01:41:59.239 --> 01:42:01.239
dressing up. You know, had
powder puff in the eighties and nineties.

1294
01:42:01.399 --> 01:42:06.640
It's supposed to be funny. So
I use my voice and I've exposed Pride

1295
01:42:06.680 --> 01:42:12.560
festivals for what they are. I
recently posted a video I was at Pride

1296
01:42:13.039 --> 01:42:15.079
just wearing red, white and blue, wasn't announcing that I was there to

1297
01:42:15.239 --> 01:42:20.479
expose it. And the young girl
came up to me. She was shaking

1298
01:42:20.600 --> 01:42:24.119
her hands on her fists in front
of her in a way that made it

1299
01:42:24.279 --> 01:42:28.920
makes me believe she was autistic,
and she said, you're so pretty.

1300
01:42:29.479 --> 01:42:31.359
I said, oh, thank you
so much, that's so kind. Are

1301
01:42:31.479 --> 01:42:36.720
you LGBTQ And she said yes,
I'm pan sexual. I said how old

1302
01:42:36.760 --> 01:42:41.039
are you? She said thirteen.
I said, honey, I think you

1303
01:42:41.079 --> 01:42:44.920
should focus on school. I think
you should focus on grades. And I

1304
01:42:45.119 --> 01:42:48.079
love your crown. It was a
paper crown given to her by PBS tax

1305
01:42:48.600 --> 01:42:54.479
taxpayer funded PBS, and I wish
her well. But this year I'm doing

1306
01:42:54.560 --> 01:42:59.399
the exact same thing. I'm going
to the Pride Festival. And you got

1307
01:42:59.520 --> 01:43:01.920
it how to fight the war from
within. You got to win the culture

1308
01:43:01.960 --> 01:43:04.680
war, because you know what,
people want to dress up, people want

1309
01:43:04.720 --> 01:43:10.600
to have fun. Nobody had a
problem with it until they started drag clean

1310
01:43:10.720 --> 01:43:15.600
story Hour and leftist indoctrination in schools. And it's not even about a man

1311
01:43:15.760 --> 01:43:20.279
dressing up for comedic purposes. It's
about pushing the transagenda, which is one

1312
01:43:20.880 --> 01:43:26.159
a power play because they look like
the good guys defending children. And two

1313
01:43:26.840 --> 01:43:31.760
it's about money. This is a
billion dollars industry. This child mutilation and

1314
01:43:32.079 --> 01:43:40.359
physicians are cowards because they're being forced
to use pronouns and redefine gender, redefine

1315
01:43:40.439 --> 01:43:44.199
everything, and they're not standing up. So what I always do is I

1316
01:43:44.399 --> 01:43:48.680
call out the men and women out
there who are remaining silent. Why is

1317
01:43:49.039 --> 01:43:55.520
Ryan Woods, Lady Maga Usa out
there crusading to defend your children. I

1318
01:43:55.520 --> 01:43:58.960
don't even have children. I just
was one of these kids. If I

1319
01:43:59.119 --> 01:44:02.439
was born to the woke mob today, they would have said Ryan loves barbies,

1320
01:44:02.840 --> 01:44:06.720
Ryan's always sneaking, putting on his
sister's cheer uniforms, he's a girl.

1321
01:44:08.000 --> 01:44:10.560
Get him on puberty walkers, and
I would have been dead by the

1322
01:44:10.640 --> 01:44:13.439
time I was twenty one because I
wouldn't be able to have an erect no

1323
01:44:13.600 --> 01:44:16.119
doubt. Listen, listen, Ryan, I'm sorry we're running out of time.

1324
01:44:16.439 --> 01:44:21.720
This always happens when we talk.
But I appreciate your mission. I

1325
01:44:21.840 --> 01:44:29.319
appreciate you fighting the fight from withinside
and please keep it up. We'll be

1326
01:44:29.399 --> 01:44:32.960
praying for absolutely all. Right.
People could go to Ladymaga usa dot com

1327
01:44:33.079 --> 01:44:36.720
if they want to learn more and
