Well, it's comfortable out there this morning, temperatures in the low sixties with
the clear skies, and you warm up to the mid eighties this afternoon,
but low humidity and mostly sunny skies make it pretty decent. Tomorrow's when things
change. You're back in the nineties and temperatures will be feeling like the triple
digits. From a severe weather station. I'm nine first Warning Meteorologist Cameron Harden

update is at six thirty. I'm Whitney Harris, News Radio seven hundred WLW
News twenty four hours a day. News Radio seven hundred WLW into the first
official hour of the Saturday morning edition for June fifteenth, twenty twenty four.
Already a very very bizarre day. Lynette can call my cell phone but can't
call the radio station line. Dick from Dayton is perplexed as well. And
I am just sitting here going, oh, what's next? Oh? And
then I see what's next. It's our friend Dave from from Harrison. Hi,
Dave from Harrison. How are you Dad? Good? Doing good there?
Love? Happy fdwe to your bad self and watch your language. Now,
it's not technically a Father's Day for me. It's Father's Day. I
have a father. We all at what about Brooks. Huh Okay, I'm
a I'm a the father of a cat dog. Not quite the same thing
as raising offspring that you brought into this world as you do. You are.
You are the world's greatest dad, Dave, because I've seen family pictures
you and you've been very busy. You have been proliferating the breed, the
brood as it is. And uh, there there are a lot of few.
You know. The thing I imagine was the wildest thing about Father's Day
so far from me. I'll let you go in a minute. Hang on
a second, Oh jeez, yeah, right, exactly. The thing about
Italian Fest is they have the sons and daughters Italian American honoree on on the
grand opening ceremony on Thursday night, which I was there and and last night,
so they get the honorees family out there. Apparently apparently Italians, especially
Italian Catholics, really know how to reproduce. Because there were so many people
on the stage, I thought it was going to collapse. And it's a
big stage, I mean, the the Pete Wagner orchestra fits all on it.
And that's a big ball, the best. But anyway, all these
people on stage, they barely fit, all to honor one person who was
responsible for them being there in the first place. And you're like that,
you, I mean, you have, you have You have definitely sowed your
seed into this world, Dave, And for that reason alone, I want
to commend you and say congratulations dad, Happy Father's Day weekend to you.
Right back after we were wondering how brooks He did in his milk drinking contest
the other day, Brooksley does not drink milk. He's just a bizarre cat.
He only eats the dry food that we gave him when he was a
kitten, and that's all these every He not interested in human food, and
he only drinks water. He doesn't drink milk. Well, we heard he
won by six laps. Hey, what washes up on tiny beaches? What

seriously thinking about I'd never receive a way to switch broke because it's old,
the same things that I get hard to do. They really think we're getting
out of the told me this is a sad salvation. It's true. On
the radio radio radio Rick joins us, good morning, Ricky, how are
you? Good morning? Gary? Jeff? Interesting radio this morning, I
think because it's a well it's a Stuart Warner fifty one T fifty six.
This is from nineteen forty six, and it is a very basic five tube
AM radio. It's a wood table model. And the interesting thing I thought
about was the fact that it's from nineteen forty six. This is one of
Stuart Warner's very first models. They came out with after World War Two,
so once all the factories fired up again, it was a scramble to put
everything together. And of course, since no consumer radios were sold during the
war, a lot of people were standing in line by anything at all that
was available if they were barely eking out a working radio where didn't have one
anymore because something went wrong. But what I thought was interesting about this one
is there's nothing particularly special about it. And I mean, it's a nice
five to two radio. It has the history part of the World War two
thing. Oh but then I found the August thineteen forty six issue of Radio
and Television Retailing and they're right up. They did a whole rite up on
this radio. And you talk about the masters of advertising creating features that don't
exist. So let's go to that article, shall we. Let's go the
headliner. It's all newry to end out, Okay, So first of all,
does that mean it's not a used radio, because this is the nineteen
forty six radio with nineteen thirty nine technology, just saying, yeah, a
handsome electronic triumph in three smart finishes Early America and maple polished, walnut and
blonde modern desert finish. And I'm pretty sure the modern with the E on
the end has too many letters because this is not Art deco and has no
fancy colors to it. And I think they were going for a desert which,
yeah to me. S's guys. Sorry, anyway, easy to read
slide dial rule with backlighted numerals. I think you could knock that out with
lighted dial. But anyway, Oh, here's my favorite matched ivory controls.

anybody know what it knows what it means Rain air antenna. And oh and
okay, here's here's the picture clear strobosonic tone of course, what you can
hear the difference? Yes, picture clear strobosonic tone of course. You know
that's that's what I appreciate most about you. You always have that picture clear

US Open into the weekend round. Man, it just it's it's painful.
It's just painful to watch Tiger Woods try and play the game that he loves,
that he excelled at for so long. It's as painful as watching Joe
Biden wonder off on a hillside in Italy. It's just it's just like,
man, it didn't even feel like Tiger played relatively that bad. It's just
the course kind of took him, and everybody else gave him all the air
takes hitting the ball pretty well, like he was hitting the ball pretty well,
but those greens you have to hit it perfect otherwise you just roll down
the hill. Like Rory had a putt I saw off if he put it
off the green and it just kept going. And that's just has to be
demoralizing as a golfer, especially in such a mental sport like that. Louis
Aiberg is the leader at six under right now, Patrick Cantley, Bryson d
Chambeau Thomas Detrie are both tied for second. Tony Finow, Matthew Pavone Rory
McElroy are tied for fifth at three under FC Cincinnati's back in action this weekend.
Finally, Yeah, f C Cincinnati's back late night against San Jose.
Kickoff is that ten forty. Pregame coverage begins at ten and you can listen

very bizarre finished last night, but a win anyway. Yeah, winner's a
win. Jamier Candelario said that on the post game doesn't matter how you do
it, It's all about getting the win. The Red Legs took the first
of a three game set versus Brewers with a six to five victory last night.
Hunter Green got the win, pitching five innings, given up two earned
runs, traking out five, walking five batters. The Red Legs had five
airs last night. Some some late inning drama. What about today's game yet?
First pitch today is that four to ten. Pregame coverage for the inside
pitch begins at three to ten. Andrew Abbott is on the mound for the
Reds. He is five or five with a three point two to eight e
ERA, and he'll go against Milwaukee's Brice Wilson, who is three to three
with a four point one to nine ERA. And you can listen to that

five from the play with multiple RBIs. Alexis Diaz got a little shaky at

Buyers, visit Mike castro cy jeep today, lease a brand new twenty twenty
four jeep by Chipmunks. Ready to sing a song? Okay, Simon,
Oh, okay, Theodore all okay, Alvin, ALBN alban So. I
don't know why, but our friend Steve Simon requested this to begin our segments.
Was that a real request, Steve? And what's going on? Well,
here we go. In the immortal words of New York District Attorney Alvin
Bragg upon hearing that Hunter Biden had actually been convicted on those gun charges.
Yes, we've been good, but we can't last. Okay, I may
have been confused when I was taping Bragg's comments. I was taping over the
Chipmunk song from nineteen fifty eight. By the way, that song made number
one. Yes, I know. You may recall that the three rodents,
of course were Simon, good name, Theodore and Alvin and the human voice.
David Seville accuses Alvin of being a little flat. Our Alvin in New
York, on the contrary, is quite round. This week the rodent from
the Rotten Apple. Yes, our Alvin Bragg had to apologize to the Biden
crime family for supplying the wrong jury for the Delaware case. It seems the
judges like juries can't be bought and sold. The Biden's being honest people paid
off Bragg Incorporated with a legitimate government check, but some non English speaking illegal
immigrant on Alvin's staff screwed up and sent the Trump jury to Delaware, and
Braggs read a judge office forgot to send their guy to Delaware, which was
strike too. Oh my god. Joe Biden is of course insensed and wouldn't
buy Bragg's excuse that he has drug impaired, since Joe is clearly an authority
on that since Hunter's stash is the only thing keeping the President awake during deliberations
on the Imas war. Joe also had an accident in his pants when he
heard Trump's joke that since Hunter was exercising his Second Amendment right to buy a
gun, that Donald might actually pardon Hunter if he is elected, Joe had
said he wouldn't pardon Hunter if Hunter were convicted. By the way folks think
about that, So what Kammie Harris as president? She could, couldn't she?
Yeah, yet read between the lines, folks, page two, Alvin
seems to catch on to twenty twenty four that line, We've been good,
but we can't last. It's falling apart for the Democrats at home, and
Conservatives are winning the European parliamentary elections. Meanwhile, on a related note,
the three hundred and fifty pound Alvin definitely not a chipmunk has announced that he
is transing into two one hundred and seventy five pound females. Seems there are
no limits to what you can make of yourself in trans world. Alvin does
have a leg up. He already has four forty eight double D man boobs.
He's dubbed his two females judge and Jury, since he owns both of
them. Speaking of which, a backward hamlet in the People's Republic of Connecticut
has decided to not allow the thin blue line police flag to be raised on
a flagpole outside city Hall to honor an officer who was killed by a hit
and run driver. Instead, the city fathers lowered the gay Pride flag to
half mast for some inexplicable reason since the officer was married to a woman and
left to children. That actually fairly still occurs in Connecticut, I'll be damned.
Meanwhile, in DC, the trans Pride cabal was invited again to the
White House for a celebration several months ago. It was Easter Sunday, which
used to be a Christian holiday. This past week, more drag queens showed
up at a Juneteenth celebration. What Juneteenth commemorates the freeing of the slaves by
the state of Texas. What the hell has that to do with sexual shenanigans
is beyond comprehension unless you realize that the LBJXYZ whatever crowd believes that it has
been left out of dei, so whenever it's somebody else's birthday party, they
make it a point to make affairs. As best I can figure, the
pecking order now has them just a tad below illegal immigrants and terrorists, but
always ahead of veterans who can get maimed in government service but get their best
care from non governmental agencies like paralyzed veterans of America or wounded warriors. Figure
that one out. I have standing as a veteran, but I got off
active duty unscathed. So I choose to support the candidacy for victimization of a
group of folks who don't run around asking for money, jobs, housing,
student loan reimbursement, or free cable and garbage pickup. I speak of stand
up and cheer left handed people. They consist of about one in every eight
persons. They have no flag, no national holiday or month, and no
DEI preference, and they managed to do very well, thank you. They
are represented among our US presidents way out of proportion to their numbers. Eight
of the forty five presidents up to Biden were left handed, including six of
the last fourteen. In nineteen ninety two, all three major candidates for president
were south pause. And they've done all this without government help. With one
glaring exception. Abner Doubleday, employed at the US Military Academy at West Point,
is said to have invented baseball. He designed the bass paths so runners
run counterclockwise. This means a left handed batter is closer to first base than
a righty. A left handed pitcher is facing first base When he's in the
stretch position with a man on first, this gives him a better chance to
keep the runner honest. Ooh, which brings up the old left hander Joe
Knuxall of Hamilton, Ohio, who still holds the record for youngest pitcher ever
in MLB in June of nineteen forty four. He was fifteen when he started
a long career with the Reds. This week was his eightieth anniversary. Rip
Joe and Rip. West Virginia's Jerry West died at eighty six this week,
and he of course is on the NBA logo, which is on all those
uniforms. I have to tell you, folks, I saw Jerry West play
a game in Madison Square Garden when he was with the West Virginia Mountaineers.
And a little tidbit when we was, myself and my captain of my high
school basketball team walked into Madison Square Garden on fiftieth Street and eighth Avenue in
those days, we walked right by the West Virginia players. Every one of
them had a blue blazer with the school crest on the pocket. My buddy
turned around to me and said, that is real class. And you know
what, it is you ever see these guys walk in to these stadiums these
days? Folks. No, West Virginia had real class. They almost won
a national championship. They lost to California in the final game. By the
way, I have one last suggestion here. You know this hostage situation that
Joe can't handle, I would say, arrest all these campus clowns and tell
Hamas we'll release them to you when you release our hostages. Wouldn't that be
a good deal? Gary Jee, Well, they don't care about humanity or
human beings. It probably wouldn't matter to them. Steve, thank you so
much. You always matter to me and I appreciate your comments. Breaking back

By the way, a guy named Jeff Pittman, who's a magistrate judge,

get our friend Matt, our friend Matt to toe Shulty, your son who

for Father's Day you get to see your your youngest son. What else is
going on? Oh, well, we got Cornwall Alliance dot org, one
of the organizations I support, just announced that it's the newest book, Climate
and Energy. The Case for Realism is an Amazon bestseller. Uh. This
book is full of science, engineering, economics, and most importantly ethics.
Former Secretary Assistant Secretary of the Interior says, quote noted experts show how ill
informed climate policy can and does threaten economic the most important human welfare. You
went away, you said threatened economic? What economic systems and hence human wealthare
all right? One another one and another great thing from Heartland dot org their
Climate Change Weekly number five nine that was issued yesterday. One of the articles
title surveys show the vast bulk of Antarctic ice is stable or growing. And
one of the things you hear a lot about from the drive by mainstream media,
Gary Jeff is you know. Uh, they're scientists are supposedly are worried
about massive ice loss in the Antarctica that would radically increase the rise of the
seas around the world. And indeed, the West Arctic ice sheet is melting
somewhat and the Antarctica peninsula is in decline. But we've heard about this already
before, Gary Jeff. What people may be surprised at that there is a
sub service geo thermal and volcanic activity that is driving much of the melting in
West Antarctica, but not, thank god, for the rest of the continent.
So melting, we're not the We're not the problem. No, but
the alk it is either stable or growing. Yeah. So new research using
updated data has just come out in an international team of researchers from universities and
research institutes in Denmark, France and Norway have published a paper in Nature Communications
examining ice balances across East Antarctica. They found that it's a mix, with
the ice in different what they call glacial outlets thickening, some are thickening,
some are thinning, and some are remaining stable. So bottom line, there's
no declining trend and fixed ice on land. In fact, there may be
some net growth. And furthermore, when they looked at long term data the
ice as it grows and declines and stable, they found no corresponding relationship to
carbon dioxide emissions CO two concentrations in the atmosphere or global average temperature trends.
The bottom line, Gary Jeff. The research summarizes this way quote. While
previous research in Antarctica snowfall found statistically significant, no statistically significant, say that
three times changes since the nineteen fifties. Recent studies utilizing compound data on ice
core records indicate increased Arctic Antarctic wide snow accumulation through the past two hundred years.
Very good any way you cut it. We do not have to worry
about Antarctica's bass store of ice to melt and raise sea levels. In other
words, don't believe their lies. Thank you very much, Steve Schulte.
As always our environmental engineer, chiming in on a Saturday morning. And by

with our friend Rocco Costelano, fitness trainer extraordinaire and biohacker Guy and Rocco,
I gotta tell you, I don't know if you've seen this. Last week
or so on Fox News Channel, Jesse Waters in his program has been featuring
video from a Spartan race that I know you are heavily involved in. Do
you know about that? Yes, well I've seen it, yes, yes,
and and uh, you know a lot of people now are are getting
I don't know why they haven't been involved in sporting races before, but there
are a lot of actually down in Austin where I was last weekend, well,
a biohacker, Ben Greenfield, and an author of the of the book
Boundless, was down there getting his buck kicked by Decca. Actually, and
yeah, there is a lot of people out there. There was there the
ten event Spartan kind of race or competition. But anyway, the video he
showed was very very interesting, showing a lot of oversized people swimming through the
mud at one point, well it's not really it's called the dunk wall and
uh and they go through it's a pretty deep trench. Yeah, yeah,
you say that, and they have to swim underneath this wall in order to
get to the other side, and it's full of mud. And in Florida,
actually this past year they had to chase a bunch of alligators out out
of the dunk wall. So, yeah, you don't want an alligator in
your dunk wall while you're participating in a spartan race. Anything else you got
this world? Anything else you got, well, yeah I do. Actually
I just found out that my mother was diagnosed with a lung cancer. So
I want people to understand that if you smoke for thirty to forty years,
I want people to to go get get their scans and to do a preventative
you know, because I know a lot of people out there that have smoked
for a long time and they're you're talking to one right, and and when
people don't listen and they don't go to other doctor and get scans, they
may get you know, they may find out that they have stage three or
stage four cats when they could have prevented it. And so so I just
want, you know, people to know that if the doctor says to get
a scan and you're over fifty and you've smoked, definitely get those scans because
so you're talking. You're talking directly to me, is what you're doing,
Rocco, look it directly to you're talking to whoever is listening. Uh.
Well, and there's a great book out there if if you are if you
do fear that you may get cancel or whatever. There's a great book out
that it's called I Never Fear Cancer Again. And uh it's one that I
recommend to everyone. And uh and I read it at least four or five
times. All right, Rocco, I'm just impressed that you're able to read
so copiously. And uh, what is your what what is your mother's first
name? It's a D D d N. Yes, okay, well we
are we are praying for Dan in her battle again cancer. All right,

But first, you know those grimy hotels on the side of the road.
You know you take one look at him and say nah, yep.
Well, in Nebraska, the community is trying to shut down one motel six.
The police chief says that the place is out of control with crime and
that they don't meet industry standards. Well, what does he mean by that,
Well, he points to a recent transaction where a customer paid for their
room in ground beef hotel. Says they're just trying to survive, But the
neighborhood says it's a nuisance and they want it gone. Meanwhile, a man
enjoying some butterscotch ice cream was shocked to find a human thumb mixed in with
his chilled The man says he knew it was a thumb based on the size
of the finger, the print, and the nail. Police say they're looking
into it. In Indianapolis, a Chick fil A employee recently broke into his
coworkers' home to perform an exorcism. Robert Knocker claimed the coworker had demons inside
of him. When the cops got there, this guy demanded police officers find
a compact disc and play Number three because it would save his coworker. And
finally, speaking of delicious Gilly's Place and Form in Arkansas is hosting the twenty
fourth annual Testicle Festival this weekend. People are coming from miles around to eat
Rocky Mountain oysters aka bull testicles. They're battered, deep fried and then served
on a silver platter, and you're encouraged to go nuts and bring your own
dipping sauce. Next week, mister Peanut will be walking one lucky bride down
the aisle. It could be you have a great weekend. When do you

Animal fathers that take care of their eggs. And one of the most
interesting ones about it is the seahorse, Gary, Jeff, did you know
and I did not know this that the male, the female sea horse drops
her egg into the male sea horses pouch, the brute pouch, and uh
the egg is fertilized in the brute pouch and the male the male pouch.
Uh. For the for the sea horse exhibits all the similar traits of the
female uterus as far as it gives it nutrients, it takes care of all
the wiste and uh just uh does all the heavy lifting from that point on.
So uh so men can have babies. Men can have babies. If
you're a sea horse, jeez, you can do it. No I can't.
Neither can you. Human men cannot have babies. We just provide the
payload. And in the world of sea horse though, it's the other way
around. That's right, take takes all the responsibility. So in articles,
I'll tell you what this one at least, I've called you a lot of

Don't drink and drive, as told to me at Newport's Italian Fest during the

In fact, quite a few. In fact, O'Shaughnessy's had so much that
it's right up to close in time, and the bartender turns on the lights
and says, O'Shaughnessey, time to hit the road, my man. O
Shaughnessy staggers up out of his seat at the pub, gets to his car,
and of course he's in no condition to drive whatsoever. He's weaving from
one side of the road to the other on his way home. And Murphy's
on patrol and sees this, and he says, oh jeez, O'Shaughnessy's driving

rolls down the window and says Murphy, what are you doing, my man?

worked out. Serendipitous as usual on the Saturday morning edition, so my friend
Pat Donolan who was at actually in Milwaukee, he moved. He traveled from
Cincinnati to mill Walk a in spite of in spite of Donald Trump's for warnings,
UH to see the Reds and Brewers series, And he asked the question,
let's see if I can find it again? Where are you? Pat
d Oh? There it is Quiquoit emailing me. Uh. Question from a
do the red stick with diazit closer? Or do they need to make a
change? And he talks about Sony Tony Santien is hot in Louisville? What
about that idea? What about that idea? Well, I think the question
about elesss Das is fair. You know, he has been playing with fire
all year long. He played with fire last night. Key in the Reds
caught I think a couple of breaks in the ninth inning last night, you
know, number one with the play at the plate where Will Benson made a
great throw and the runner slides right into Tyler Stevenson's tame and then the fun
at the end of the ninth inning last night left Brewers manager Pat Murphy perplexed.
The more you play with fire, the greater the likelihood you get burned.
And it feels like they're playing with fire with Alexis DS of the ninth
inning. I guess what I would wonder is would it makes sense to try
Fernando Cruz and in that role, Because if you were to look at the
red that has the most likely chance of being an All Star, it's kind
of hard for non closers to make the All Star team as relievers. But
Fernando Cruz has a chance. He's got a split finger fastball that is one
of the most unhittable pitches in the entire sport. It's like Mariano Rivera,
where the hitter knows what's coming and is defenseless against it. And look,
he's pitched in some pretty high leverage situations. I just the more I watch
Alexis ds struggle, the more I wonder what it makes sense to just flit
roles for just a second. Tony Santien is a guy that they've given chances
to. He is pitching well right now at Louisville. The thing is,
the rest of the bullpen has been pretty good right It's turned into a strength
of the team. But the ninth inning is a roller coaster, And you
know it's funny. I was watching the game with a buddy of mine last
night who's a Brewer sand and they're up three going into the ninth and I
said, look, this game's not over. When alexisty as you never know
what's going to happen. And we saw it again last night. And for
a team that is going to have to win a lot of close games,
for a team that's got still quite a deficit to make up in the national
Egue Central, if the ninth inning doesn't get nailed down better, playing with
fire is eventually going to result in and this team getting burnt. So I
think questions about the closer position are very very fair time passages this week.
Of course, the stark reminder that we're all on a clock, even if
it's an eighty six year shot clock. Jerry West passing shocked a lot of
people, but I mean, the man was eighty six. I think Jerry
to me Jerry West's legacy as much as being the logo and being the incredible
champion he was as a player, I think that his time as an executive
as a general manager even more significant when you consider that he put together those
those great Laker teams and got Phil Jackson to come to La and all the
other things that Jerry West orchestrated after his playing career as if not more significant
than his time. And I mean, how do you measure I mean,
a guy scoring forty four points in NBA Championship games and at the same time,
here he is being the architect of really, really great basketball teams.
Your thoughts. I don't think anybody ever had a better basketball life. You
know, somebody who's impact spanned more than six decades. I mean, first
of all, the playing career is twenty seven a game, plays fourteen years
and makes the All Star team in every single one of them. The only
player to be named the MVP of the Finals in which his team lost.
In nineteen sixty nine, they finally break through and win the title after all
those losses they took against the Celtics and the New York Knicks. And so
he has this incredible playing career right good enough that he is made the logo
of the league. And then his next act, he's also in the Hall
of Fame for that, the architect of the Showtime Lakers, you know.
And then later on he was the guy who traded for Kobe Bryant. He
was the guy who signed Shaquille O'Neill. He was not in place as general
manager for the majority of that early two thousands run, but his fingerprints were
all over the team. And then he goes to Golden State and he had
a major hand in building that dynasty. And so you know, think about
how deep into the twenty first entry that way. So here's a guy whose
basketball life, you know, you could start talking about Jerry West in the
late nineteen fifties and early nineteen sixties, a great international career. I don't
think anybody's had a better basketball life. You know, there are a lot
of iconic players who have gone on to become coaches, owners, general managers,
executives, broadcasters. I don't think any would would have the body of
work across multiple jobs, multiple eras like Jerry West. He is the logo,
and he is the logo for a good reason and less impactful obviously,
But another milestone and another passage. As Charles Barkley announced this week he's stepping
down from the broadcast booth after twenty five years after next season in the NBA.
And another guy who said an incredible broadcast or basketball life. If you
consider his time as a TNT and you know whatever, a voice of the
NBA after his outstanding playing career. Your thoughts on Charles Barkley saying goodbye A
lot of thoughts. I guess the first would be, yeah, what a
great you know again to use the term basketball life iconic player. Obviously a
guy who didn't win a championship but won multiple gold medals as part of Team
USA and NBA MVP in ninety three. He should have won too, because
he should have been the MVP in nineteen ninety You know, a first Team
All NBA guy, just a great, great player. I think, one
of those guys whose personality and whose broadcasting career has to a degree overshadowed how
good he was because he was an undersized power forward, the round mound of
rebound, but just an incredible player. And then you know, a four
time Emmy winning, four time Emmy winning broadcaster, the most important part of
I think, the most beloved sports studio show maybe in the history of the
medium. NBA fans and I count myself among them, love that TNTs show,
which nobody has been able to replicate or come even close. And so,
yeah, what a remarkable second act. Now, I'll be honest with
you. I don't believe for a second that next season will be the final
time that Charles Barkley is behind the desk because I remember Charles as a player
vividly, and for years he teased retirement, he talked about how he was
closed to hanging it up, and he hung on for quite a while.
And as a broadcaster he is always teased, this is gonna be my last
contract. And I know things are changing in the NBA. T and T
is likely going to lose the league, and so he doesn't want to go
work for another network. And I can appreciate that, but I don't know.
Man. There's a long history of Charles Barkley talking about hanging it up
and then not, so I remain skeptical about that, and I hope I'm
right because I think he's also on television. I think he's opinionated. He's
one of the few people you see in broadcasting to whether you agree with him
or disagree, and I actually often disagree. Whether you agree or disagree,
is willing to call it the way it is, not worried about pissing people
off, not worrying about saying the wrong saying, not worrying about alienating players
or coaches, and so I hope he continues. If he doesn't, you're
right, what an awesome second act after an incredible playing career. And I
think you would agree with me as well. He's a knuck ahead. So
my wife calls the game of golf. She's come up with a new name
for the game of golf. And I may have told you this previously,
but she calls the game. That's not fair because as somebody who you probably
would concur that's a good alternate name for the game of golf. But watching
this so far at the US Open, I have seen several examples of that's
not fair. Well, you're anything to say about that? Yeah, you
know it's you watch and you can relate, right because you see some of
these guys, and obviously these are the best players in the world. You
see some of these guys just get flummixed by the course. Now they can
blame the course. Most of us can just play our games. But yeah,
you're right, I mean, the big takeaway in the US Open.
I tend to I don't want to say roll my eyes, but I tend
to downplay whenever people get excited about tiger woods playing. But I think it's
nothing else. In these last two days have for whatever holdovers have been hoping
for another Tiger resurgence, it is solidified that this is kind of who he
is. He's a guy capable of delivering some awesome shots and some fun moments.
He's not really a guy capable of contending for championships anymore. And if
you needed any more evidence to suggest that this weekend would provide it, well,
I said yesterday, as they're just kind of beginning the second round,
watching at the bar and watching Tiger, and you know, it's early in
the round and he's already four over after the first round in the early couple
of holes there, I said, this is almost painful to watch as someone
who rooted for Tiger and watched him in his glory years and still holding out
hope for what you're talking about, I said, this kind of reminds me
of Willie May's last season. You just hang on too long sometimes. Yeah,
And I'll admit that it's neat seeing him, right, Yeah, because
for those of us who love this port, he has such a big part
of it. But it's neat seeing him, not neat seeing him mister cut
and he's not missed the cut. What is it in four straight us opens?
It's it's not easy to watch. Indeed, indeed, well, Moe,
what are you doing on Father's Day? Anything special? I'm going to
Cleveland to see the Rolling Stones. Good for you, man, Yes,
good for you. Here Ice cubes opening for him, So it's going to
be big nice, have a fantastic weekend. Happy Father's Day, Crosley's dad,
Moe Eggar there and Mike Allen it is it would have been Waylon Jennings
birthday to day. Oh, a real long time for good on dreams and
just filled in the great voice. I'm whyaling Jennings and the good life you've
promised eight once he's living today, eight once you's living today. But she
never complains of the bad times of bad things He's time. Why is that
walling? She just talks about the good times, the all the good times
to come. Who is she? She's a good heart moll wld with a
good time and good hearted woman in love with a good timing man he lived
in. It's eight fifty four at seven hundred WLW. Mike Allen, Saturday
midday, just ahead, what a week And I was talking to you a
little bit earlier, Mike, and I'm just I'm very, very frustrated with
the upcoming twenty twenty four election because I believe that the Democrats are gonna steal
the election again, just like they did in twenty twenty and this time they're
gonna do it with the illegal aliens who are voting. Think about this in
Kentucky. In some states, it's already been instituted in Kentucky next year in
twenty twenty five, if you do not have something called a real ID,
which you need to provide multiple sets of personal identification to get, you will
not be able to fly on a plane as an American citizen. However,
in many states, if you want to register to vote and you're not an
American citizen, you're an illegal alien and the millions who have come in and
since Joe Biden took office, all you have to do is bring a utility
bill with your name on it and an address. You don't have to provide
proof that you're a citizen at all. You check a box said, yeah,
I'm an American citizen, and you can go in the voting booth and
vote for a Democrat. They're going to steal it again, that's my prediction.
Well check this that way you had mentioned it. We were talking about
it earlier, and how the democratic narrative is that African Americans oppose photo ID.
Check this out carry Jeff Gallup poll October twenty twenty two. Eighty percent
of all Amic Americans' favor photo ID laws for voting. Yep, seventy seven
percent of African Americans supported. So it's just yet they call photo ID laws
for voting racist and discriminatory against people of color. This tells me that that's
just a bunch of bull crap. They don't it is male bovine fecal samples.
Yes, as I like to say, that's a little bit better way
to do. So, what's going on in the show today? Real quick?
We got a lot going on. I'm going to talk about the Israeli
raid. I think it was only a Saturday that freed those four hostages,
and some of the blowback on that where people are blaming Israel for the Palestinian
civilian deaths, it's just it's it's the bizarro. The Palestinian citizens should blame
them for themselves for Palestinian citizen deaths because they took put terrorists in charge of
their territory, and their terrorists put them in areas more likely to so it
just it amazes me. The Loss does not care about any Polycinnian and we
got to go apparently. But Saturday midday after the show show at Huddles and
also Italian Fest continues down by the river in Newport. We all hear the
radio ads about the Irs. They tell you to be afraid to be scared,
and they try to frighten you into calling I'm not here to do that
