The heavens and struck Anne and me the first time we saw the Beatles.
There had been so much anticipation and hype about the Beatles. It was a
huge event like the Lunar landing, and that's when we heard the call to
become rock musicians. Today, Nancy Wilson apart is seventy Happy Birthdays you haven't
now okay from the Little Queen album in nineteen seventy seven. That's older sister
Anne on the lead vocals, and sister Nancy, whose birthdate is joining him
and just slamming that as also comparisons to Led Zeppelin, who were favorites of
the Wilson sisters as they grew up and grew into rock and roll. Happy
Birthday, It is March sixteenth, twenty twenty four. Before we look at
it and look back at significant events and people tied to this particular date in
history, including but not limited to these, Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan made his
last voyage. They reached the Philippines, Magellan met his waterloo. He was
killed during a battle with the natives following following their landing, the year was
fifteen twenty one. This date in eighteen oh two, President Thomas Jefferson signed
a measure authorizing the establishment of the US Military Academy at West Point, New
York. The mission has always been honored duty country. They eliminated that at
West Point this week. It's unbelievable. Adolf Hitler decided to break the military
terms of the Treaty of Versailles nineteen thirty five. Ten years later, during
World War Two, American forces declared they had secured Ewjima. Pockets of Japanese
resistance remained. They were still finding soldiers like ten years after the war was
over, in some of those mountains of Japan. Senator Robert F. Kennedy
of New York announced his candidacy for the Democrat presidential nomination on this date in
nineteen sixty eight. Of course, would be assassinated that summer. His son
RFK Junior is running as an independent this year. Also on March sixteenth,
nineteen sixty eight, the Melai massacre took place during the Vietnam War, not
a bright spot for the American military history. In a nationally broadcast addressed in
nineteen seventy two, President Nixon called for a moratorium on court ordered school bussing
to achieve racial desegregation. Court ordered bussing was found to be unconstitutional. Let's
see nineteen eighty four. William Buckley, the CIA station chief in Beirut,
kidnapped by Hesbuala militants, tortured and killed the next year. It's more of
Iranian money killing Americans. Not much has changed in the past forty years,
has it? See Singer Ray Walker of the Jordanaires, Elvis's backup vocal group,
has a birthday today. Ray is ninety. Game show host Chuck Woolry
has a birthday today. We'll be back in two and two. Country singer
Robin Williams, Eric Strada, Get your Chips out, Victor Garber, Ray

Flynn, Patty Griffin, Great Folks singer Gor Verbinski, the movie director,
Tracy Bonham, Lauren Graham, Judah Friedlander, Tim Kang. Let's see anybody

Von Bell to a one year contract, running back Zach Moss to a two
year contract, safety Genos Stone to a two year contract, and tight end
Mike Joseki to a one year contract. And lining up a lot of tight
ends, we need one good one, you know. Yeah, I have
faith. I like Kaseki a lot. I think he's a very solid tight
end. I thought Tanner Hudson did a really good job last year actually proving
himself. College Basketball News Ohio State felt Illinois seventy seven to seventy four of
the Big Ten quarterfinals last night Texas A and M. I'll scored Kentucky ninety
seven to eighty seven in the SEC quarter finals yesterday and the biggest championship today,
Marquette faces Yukon at Madison Square Garden at six thirty in the ACC Championship.
NC State hit a three at the buzzer to send their game vers Cortinue
to overtime, where they pulled out a victory. Their reward is a battle
vers UNC in the ACC Championship at eight thirty. Have you seen the NC
State big man? No know who is this? Dj Burns? Three hundred
plus pounds of pure muscle in the paint. Never seen escalat play. Now.
How tall is he? Dj Burns? He's probably six' nine,
six nine and three hundred. He is six' nine, Yes, he's
two, says two seventy five, but I'd say closer to the three.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, my god. I tell you
who else is just a physical freak. Is that Edie guy out of Purdue,
Zach Edy. He's just hard to defend because he's not one of the
string being big men. I mean he's guinea, but I mean he's big
enough to and he knows how to play the big man way around the basket,
no doubt about it. That's all the fouls you need. Kind of

Nobody celebrates Saint Patty's Day quite likes Skyline. Come enjoy your famous five forty
eight It's tradio on a Saturday morning edition. Our first item for sale my
White Privileged card. Over fifty years old but in mint condition, never been
used, Never have used that thing. The reason I'm selling it. It
hasn't done anything for me. No free college, no free food, no
free housing, no free anything. Basically, had to go to work every
day of my life, and we're talking about what forty six, forty seven
years, paying a boatload of taxes to carry those who choose not to work.
If interested, I do prefer cash, but I'm willing to do an
even trade for a victim card, which seems much more widely accepted and comes
with countless benefits. Any takers the Gary Jeff White Privileged Card. I've often
wondered what that is exactly, white privilege never has really done. Like I
said, I've never gotten anything free for being white. Now, people of
other ethnicities or skin pigmentations can't say that that they've never gotten anything for their
ammenable characteristics, which none of us can help one way or the other.
So anyway, the white privilege card, it's time to time to let it
go. Call one eight hundred god junk because it's not doing any good for
me or anybody who looks like me. Sorry to disappoint, I wonder where
the lovely lady Lynette is. Usually we've heard from her by now, but
then with the myriad issues that she has with her phone on an almost weekly
basis, there's no telling. And there as I spoke it into existence,
there she is on the line. Now, Liam, that was freaky,
wasn't it? As soon as soon as I you're welcome to interject, Liam,
But as soon as I mentioned her name is like beetlejuice, she was
there, correct, without hesitation. It was immediately popping up on the cow
screen. People think of that that we're jacking them, but no, it's
real. Good morning, Lynette, Good morning darling. How are you,
my dear? I got grace up in the bed. I think I'm lower,
laying too long. Cool, get yourself comfortable, for by all means,
get yourself comfortable. But you're always told me to set up in your
bed, and I talked to you. Well, it probably sounds better,
sounds like you got more more power. Yeah, yeah, So do you
have anything to sing for us this morning? Oh? Yeah, okay,
is there before you start singing? Is there any news from this week from
Lady Lynette. Well, we had our uh Saint Tatchicks stay party yesterday,
Yes, and we had a good time. We had that green drink,
punch shoe and drink and it tastes pretty good, yes, ma'am. So
anyway, if you're gonna sing, go ahead and do it. Baby.
We come this far by face, leaning on the law, trusting his holy
work. He's never he's never failed. Yes, sing, oh oh oh,
captain around. We come this far by face at my boy. Hey,
baby, you're always beautiful to me. Thank you, dear love you.
All right. That's the Lady Lynett at Florence Park Care this morning.

nothing logical about this. Is there any bids on your white privilege card yet?
Well? You know I did get a response from my friend JR.
John Ryder. He said white privilege is something held by elitist and delusional coastal
liberals that makes them believe they should dictate. Wee HOI POLOI commoners. I
would make you an offer, but you can't sell something you don't have.

Jeff, I really can't. I mean, this year has been so swamped.
Usually their swamp with the wines, but this year with those three,

noon on seven hundred WLW take a look under your bed. Find stuff under
there? What about jobs? No, now try your basement. There's a
pair of overalls at overall. You're not sewing too anymore. A perfectly good
laptop that hasn't sat in your lap in months and even more stuff, but
still no jobs. Well you really have both. See stuff is defined as
household articles considered as a group. Sometimes this stuff is no longer needed.
Wait, no longer needed. That can't be right, because remember those jobs
you were looking for. Those are really needed, and they're the stuff inside
your stuff, even inside that winter code that moved with you to Phoenix.
Our job is to unlock those jobs, and it starts when you donate your
stuff to your local Goodwill. Here's how we do it. When you donate
to Goodwill, we sell your stuff to provide job training for people right here
in your community. So just by teaming up with good Will, you help
create jobs. And isn't that worth parting with the leftover key tar from your
eighties cover band? Goodwill donate stuff, create jobs. Find your nearest donation

this has to do with Radioplay seven hundred WLW at six sixteen and Gary Jeff
Walker on the Saturday morning edition and the aforementioned Rick Washburn waiting on the line.
Good morning, Ricky, how are you hey? Good morning Gary Jeff,
speaking of nothing to do with radio. Happy birthday to Marie and myself
celebrating our twenty ninth, and happy bartender versary to Christa two point oh tomorrow.
That's right, she began bartending at Huddles with me on Saint Patrick's Day
and I think it was. She says it's nine years. I don't think
it's quite nine, maybe eight. But she's not even awake now to set
me straight. But yes, it is an anniversary for her of sorts,
and happy, very happy anniversary to you and Marie. The fact that she
hasn't smothered you in your sleep yet is just remarkable, and I hope that
she allows you to live a few more years. I think you left the
words successfully out of that set. Successfully smothered you in your sleep? Oh
god? So so, I mean, what are you guys doing for for
the anniversary? Anything? Special, not particularly. We're gonna go visit the
kid and down in Bloomington, Indiana, and I just just hang out for
the day. Very good. That's that's all you need. As long as
you guys know it's special to you and you're together, that's all that matters.
Really. I did have a question for you, and i'm you guys
are in the in the box of totality for the eclipse? Are you not?
Where you live? You're close to it anyway. I have no idea
what those words meant in that order. All Right, April the eighth,
Monday, April the eighth, about three o'clock in the afternoon, Okay,
there will be a total solar eclipse, and there is a swath of the
country, which I believe Indianapolis is right in the center of oh Okay.
For a full eclipse, I think Indianapolis is included in that. You just
got to go a little west of Cincinnati, and the farther west you go
into Indiana or just north of us, like Sydney Trenton, Ohio. The
closer you get to that box of totality or the window of totality, you
can get up to four minutes of total darkness in the middle of the day,
and I was just wanting to know not to put you and Marie on
the spot. If Krista and I could come there and view the eclipse that
day, well, of course, I will check and see if we're in
the in the zone and absolutely the welcome that will be out for you guys.
Oh okay, Well, and I figured as such, but I figured
i'd put you on the spot on the Yeah. She and Maurice less lead
too, so I can get away with that too. Okay. So reception
report, You got anything to report to us this morning? Yeah, this
is a well, it's a it's a five by five report, which is
loud and clear, and it's a nineteen thirty nine Packard Bell. Packard Bell
was a unique radio manufacturer for two reasons. One is that they were located
in Los Angeles, and most of the radio manufacturers in the twenties, thirties
and into the forties were primarily either Midwest or East coast, and Packard Bell
really focused on that. With their second unique part their stationized dial. And
so the dial is very crowded with the call letters at the top of the
there's the frequencies marked and then above it it says California, and it has
all the California call letters at the various frequencies, and below it it says
Pacific Northwest as opposed to the Atlantic Northwest. I yes, all the call
letters below the frequencies. And then it also has two short wave bands way
up above one and the other way down below, and the magic Eye to
right in the middle of all of it. And naturally they had to throw
their name in there, and then all the countries that you could have picked
up in nineteen thirty nine on a short wave and where they're located on the
band. The thing requires a magnifying glass and the translation manual in order to
figure out what it all means. But from afar it looks pretty darn impressive,
and it's got buttons, and it's got knobs and dials and all kinds
of stuff. Does it happen? Does it happen to have a designation for
WLW? It does not have a single W designation because it's all either California
Pacific Northwest. Yeah, And somehow this radio ended up in the Midwest.
So the owner luckily jokingly said, well, I guess it won't work here.
Obviously Pall Crosley who founded WLW, and we are right here, I
believe, on another auspicious anniversary of WLW. WLW coming on the air the
first time in nineteen twenty two. This is right about the time of the
birthday for seven hundred WLW. Crosley made radios so people could listen to his
radio station. Packard Bell, you said, you said, Packard right?
Is it? Is it Packard Bell? Yes? Packard is it same?
Is it like a branch of the car company. No. And it's also
unrelated to the Packard Bell computer company that was popular in the nineteen eighties.
H it was a forerunner of that, maybe or somebody liked the name and
so they picked it up. Since it since expired, I got you,
all right, man, we'll listen to you with Crosley. Filka have done
that way too. There's if you buy a brand new Filka or a brand
new Crowsley has nothing to do with the originals, unfortunately, No, sadly,
listen. I have a fantastic anniverse for you and Marie. All right,
thank you, thank you very much, on a great weekend. All
right, Buddy, Rick Washburn Old Radio Rick at gmail dot com. If
you want to get in touch. At six twenty three, let's talk about

at one play of the year. And that was a bum steer. I
understand, Washington State plus three and they lose by five his play of the
year. Yeap, What have you learned? Young Liam? Don't listen to
the zebra. That's why he doesn't have a job here anymore. I guess
Elliott, Elliott, I love you, you know, gee, just he's
just a roly poly mound of fun, that's all he is. Uh So,
what else we got into sports world? Do you? Bengals re signed
tight end Tator Hudson to a one year contract. That's a great that's a
great move. I thought that, you know, he was the reason that
they were winning games they probably should have lost. Yeah. No, I
thought he was a great addition to tight endre him last year and it makes
up for what kind of was a miss with earth Smith Junior. So they
got they got Drew Sample Yes to a three year contract extension. Some people
say he was a bust of a draft pick, but I mean, here's
on his second let a three year contract after his rookie contract. And another
tight end got signed by the Bengals, Mike Joseki from the or from the
Patriots. He was on the Dolphins at one point, YEP. And then
safety Geno Stone who picked off Joe Burrow in the late game in the first
game versus the Ravens at home that we lost twenty seven to twenty four on
the game winning drive. So he's on our SWAT. He's on our team
now. Resigned safety Von Bell from the Panthers. Very good sign halfback Zach
Moss to a two year contract, which the AFC North is loyter with running
backs now Derrick Henry to the Ravens. Naji Harris is on the Steelers with
Warren showing signs of promise, and Nick Chubb comes back from injury in the
for the Cleveland Brown So it's a pretty big running back division. Yeah,
but then again, you know, running backs are often a dime a dozen
in the NFL in the ultimate analysis because while they while they are all the
people you mentioned definite contributors to an offense. But it's all about the QB
to me, Yes it is. But I think the Bengals are very well
matched for every other team outside the AFC North, and I hate the way
that the AFC North has just spilt so much different than the rest of the
NFL. The Red scot rained out yesterday and they are back in action this
afternoon. Yes, the host the Mariners today at four oh five, and
you can listen to that game right here on seven hundred WLW. We are
twelve days away from opening Day. Will you be attending the game or parade?
No, I will be. No, I don't. I don't like
crowds unless the crowd is there to see me. And you witnessed that it's
six forty five at seven hundred WLW. Tristate Chevrolet buyers. It's a buyer's
but Nanza at my cast. Early voting going on in Ohio in the primary
Tuesday, of course, official election day, and I am just already sick
of it all. You it's mind numbing, especially in a presidential election year.
This will be the most lengthy presidential election ever. They're predicting, but
it just seems NonStop to me and has for years. I am so sick
of politics and politicians. It's why I voted for Donald Trump. Why will
again if he's not in jail. But as producer Liam was making the point
to me earlier this morning, every single well not every single but it seems
that every single candidate for the Ohio Senate seat on the Republican side is making
reference to Donald Trump in one way or another. Bernie Marino Trump endorsed Bernie
Marino, Frank LeRose, Bernie Marino's a crook sounds familiar. And Dolan not
a fan of Donald Trump. The polarization that goes on just over one man.
I like Donald Trump. But as Liam pointed out, if you're running
for an office that's not the president and you're not Donald Trump, why do
you pretend that you are or you're the anti Trump? Don't care about it.
Who are you not in relation to Donald Trump? But who are you
as a person. As an individual, what do you bring to the table,
what do you believe? And I'm just sorry that it's all crazy.
I say this as a someone would call me a right wing MAGA supporter,
Okay, so be it. I am. I'm not a communist, Marxist
or globalist. I am an America first kind of person in the way that
I think. But I really don't care if Donald Trump's endorsed a candidate or
not. And I really don't care if that candidate loves or hates Donald Trump.
Has nothing to do with it would have nothing to do with my selection
if I was voting in Ohio, and it certainly doesn't have anything to do
with my electoral choices when I'm voting in my home state, the Bluegrass Commonwealth
of Kentucky. But I wish that presidential campaigns were living it to about two
months and even shorter for Senate campaigns, and how much money has been just
thrown into the rabbit hole of getting elected in a primary. Nobody shows up
west side Jim, who was a truck commander at the Board of Education.
It says, FYI, useless info. Yesterday before the Sunday early voting,
usually thirty five hundred. Yesterday they had seven hundred, so one fifth of
what usually shows up for a primary. He said, Wow, nobody cares.
And all this money is being spent and no one cares. Ray and
Lovelin, good morning, Good morning, Gary, Jeff. How you doing,
my brother. I'm just I'm sick of politics. I'm sick of the
election cycle. I'm just, you know, let's just get it over with,
get it on, get it over with. This might be the longest
one ever. You know, only in America, can you you know not
which way is it? As president? You come in with no money and
you leave a millionaire, or you come as a b in air and you
leave a millionaire. I don't know. But the you know, speaking to
your point, uh in Jim's point on these primaries, I tell you what
really really concerns me these you know, tax levies, whatever the whatever it
might be for schools or anything. And I know they all need to be
funded. But do you ever notice that if a levee gets on the ballots,
they usually do it in the off years, in the time where there's
like the lowest or the low turnout in voting. Yep, and they will
put it up to be voted on. If it gets turned down, it's
no big deal. They just put it back on, and they put it
back on, they put it back on until just enough of the people that
want to get it passed make sure they get out and vote. But whenever
they get passed, they never take them away that way. They just run
them and run them and run them until they get passed and the voter turn
not. Just scared the pants off of me, because it's the apathy is
just so I don't know, it's just scary. It's almost like nobody cares.
But then when you get your property tax bill, everybody cares, right,
I don't. Maybe we should hold election day April the sixteenth, or
whenever the property tax deals come out. I don't know it is. I
hate to go there, but you brought it up, my brother. Yeah,
yeah, no, no, I mean it should be April Fool's Day,
because that's what the voters feel like, more often than not, sadly
are fools. We're all being let around by the nose under false pretenses,
false charges, and all kinds of other nonsense. And they're spending millions upon
millions, hundreds of millions, and then too the billions of dollars for an
office that, even at the presidency pays what four hundred k year? Doesn't
make much sense? Thank you, Ray, Love you buddy, Tim Shimming
you know Carver? Or what's going on? What's happening? Tell me eat
highland beef? Well I haven't yet, but I do have some. Now,
Now, what is the best way to prepare highland ground beef? Since
you sent me a couple of little frozen patties of this, I still have
not cooked it. It's still in the freezer. What is the best heat?
Low heatings? Wait, this is ground beef though, I mean sure
you don't want to overcook it? No, no, because they're meanings.
There's hardly there's hardly no fat in it, and you're paying for the meat,
not the fat. Fat as flavor, my friend. Now there's still
a little bit in there. Okay, very good. What else can you
report? If anything? From up near the lake where it's cooler by the
lake. It's thirty five here this morning. Yeah, you're about right there
with us sunflower festivals in July. Yes, well, I mean and I
remember last year when you announced the sunflower festival and you had the the donkeys
with you and uh, you're you're Highland Highland beef cattle and and and you
told us about this. Now, with the success of last year's Sunflower Festival,
I'm imagining, even though it's in July, if you want a hotel
room anywhere around the Sunflower Festival, the time would be now probably to reserve
that that room. Yeah, because I know how many And where is this
in Lindsay, Ohio. It's in Lindsay, Ohio. Wherever the hell that
is. It's uh, south of the lake. Okay, well we're south
of the lake. It's by Freemant, Ohio. Okay, Fremont. I
know Fremont. I've been to. It is the home of Rutherford B.
Hayes, who was president in eighteen seventy six, a protege of Abraham Lincoln.
His home is there, his presidential palace and his library is there.
And I love Fremont, Ohio. So if close down. Bonson is from
o'connibor, which is north of Fremont. Yes, I'm familiar with Okcarboro.
I've been there. That's the guy that used to date the farmer's daughter,
right, the farmer's daughter, who was pretty very nice, very nice,
very nice. That's right because as you mentioned one time, when I asked
if she was a looker, you said, have you seen Bonson? I
love that. Tim. Have a glorious Saturday, and thank you, sir.
You do a wonderful and have a wonderful day. All right, Thanks,
We're well on the way. We'll be talking to Steve Shulty environmental stuff
and also heads up for today's Cincinnati Saint Patrick's Day Parade, which steps off
at noon Central and Mirroring Way, and once again Steve's son Chris is the
head hot show there for the event. Good times and nice weather today really
once it warms up a pit seven d wlw sneezing, coughing, stuffy nose,
runny nose, post nasal drip, interrupted sleeping. I just was groggy
at the end of the day. Red roses too, I see them blue
fuming, and I think to myself, what a wandoo in Indie environmentally speaking,
how are we doing this morning, mister Schulte, Good morning, gad
jet better and I deserve as always so, your son Chris is leading the
charge once again today, starting at noon Central and mirroring Way. The Saint
Patrick's Day Parade in Cincinnati right with Betty Ross's Honorary Grand Marshall. And this
is the fifty sixth year for the parade. Yep. So as you said,
it starts at Central and East Marringway, heads east on East Marringway to
Joe Knuxall Way up Joe Knuxall Way to and then turns west or left to
Freedom Way and ends at Race Street. So all you have to do is
go to Saint Cincy Saintpatsparade dot com and all the informations there whatnot to and
where, Like you said, to enjoy the parade. The weather's going to
be great by time a step off comes at noon yep. So I'm not
complaining. I've been at this parade when it was snowing, so yeah,
and you know what, it is going to warm up as we get through
the morning. We're hoping to get to a high of sixty three today.
I don't know if it'll be that warm at noon, but you know,
pretty pretty nice weather comparatively, suns out all is great. Yes, sir,
you want to talk about the possible breakdown or the demise of EVS.
Yeah, we're seeing more and more evidence that this could be happening. Yeah,
and you just can't make this stuff up. Gary Jet again. This
comes from Hartland dot org the Climate Change Weekly number four ninety nine, March
eighth, headline is the belt tolling for ev Mania. And one of the
things that I learned on this, the first electric vehicle, or the lucomotive,
it was tested in eighteen thirty seven, really couldn't compete with steam engines
powered by cole. The first rechargeable battle was created in eighteen fifty nine and
still couldn't compete. Of course, the electric cars actually predated electric I mean,
gas and diesel power vehicles couldn't compete. And it, you know,
goes on and on and despite all the subsidies, I mean we're talking to
billions upon billions of subsidies. Looks like chickens maybe coming home. Garus stock
price of Tesla is declining as well as as Tesla's earnings. There was at
the Rivian is laying off workers. Is its stocks have dropped after losses of
one point five billion dollars, and Fiskkerve, who was an early entrant,
has looked like it's going to start going through its second back bankruptcy and its
stocks have fallen to the penny stock level. Of course, the dealers are
dealing with lots full of these cars that aren't selling. Ford and GM of
cut production. Even Apple broke. Apple has canceled all its EV projects despite
spending a couple billion dollars on it. Well, and as you're Steve,
as you mentioned, uh billions of dollars in subsidies, that's taxpayer money.
So not only are the investors' money is going away, but our money is
going away up into nothing. Please continue. You're talking about HURTS. Hurts
is cutting its EV plate demotic and replacing it with internal combustion cars. And
we already talked about stories from Sweden, Iowa, Michigan, and Wyoming where
their electric bots has failed to complete to do the work and they're being shut
down. And the interesting but even in a place like good old England,
you know that doesn't get really cold there like it does in some places here
in the United States. The Daily Mail recently reported on two different days.
First one quote Britain's ticking time bomb, how nearly two thousand electric buses worth
one billion US urgent call over fears that they could burst in the flames.
And the second headline is quote electric cars release more toxic emissions and gas powered
cars and worse for the environment. And the first one talks about the emergency
recall of eighteen hundred electric buses that are in service in England, six hundred
in London alone, and the reason cause you don't know when they're going to
burst in the flames. Yeah, and that's been an issue with the batteries
on these, which is another entirely good reason to steer clear. If you
like your electric vehicle good, if you're driving your Tesla this morning listening,
fine, but don't virtue signal and think you're doing it for the environment,
because it's not doing anything for the environment. It is doing things for well,
a lot of car makers who are getting money from Honny Crapolis. Yeah,
yeah, crony, crony capitalists. As Steve would say, thank you,
mister Schulte. Happy Saint Patrick's Day weekend at seven thirteen. Listening to
a man standing in the park isn't funny. Listening to a man standing in
the park getting hit in the groin with a frisbee coach Magroin is funny.
Eddie and Rocky are also funny. So when you think of getting hit in
the groin coach Migroin think of Eddie and Rocky. Eddie and Rocky. Monday
afternoon at three seven hundred WLSW I'm Tiffany. I have some tips for you
on how to quit smoking like I did. First, I did some reading
about it. I found a lot of great advice on how to quit smoking
and picked out the ways I thought would work best for me. I started
by setting a quit date. Then I threw out my ash trays, lighters,
and matches. I did other things too, like exercising more, and
it worked, but I'd still get cravings, especially on long car rides.
To help me with that, I put a picture of my mother in my
car. She died of lung cancer from smoking cigarettes when I was only sixteen.
Now I have a sixteen year old daughter. That picture of my mother
reminds me that I don't want to miss all the things my daughter is going
to do in her life, including turning seventeen. You can quit for free
help call one eight hundred Quit Now, a message from the US Department of
Health and Human Services and CDC. You forecasts sunshine by this afternoon a high
of sixty three tomorrow. We are much cooler on Saint Patrick's Day. I
have only fifty on Sunday and mostly cloudy Monday, A chance of some evening
snow showers still being bandied about. Monday's high only thirty nine. It's thirty
four. Sneezing, coughing, stuffy nose, runny nose, post nasal drip,
interrupted sleeping. I just was groggy at the end of the day.
Allergies and sinus congestion. We're making Jenna miserable. Then a friend recommended Neviage.
Nevage provides immediate drug free congestion relief, flushing your nasal passages with refreshing
sailing and sucking out mucus, germs and other airborne irritants. Nevig helps you
breathe easier, sleep better, and feel your best right away. Navage gave
me instant relief. I didn't have to wait thirty minutes, I didn't have
to wait an hour, ninety minutes. I didn't have to wait, I
didn't have to wait a minute. I just I ran the rents and I
felt immediately. I felt better. Stop suffering from congestion and start breathing and
feeling your best again with Navage. Nav Age I've had people ask me how
I find relief, and I tell them Nevage immediately. This thing is amazing.
Navige is available at navage dot com or at Walmart, Walgreen, CVS
and rite aid. Oh that's kid fistal Oh yeah, seven hundred w l
W A couple of minutes with our fitness trainer and biohacker, Rocco Costellano.
Hey, Roc, what's up man? Hey Gary? Jeff? How are
you just wanting? We're talking about We're talking about NAC, which is a
supplement form of sistine. I don't know what cysteine. What's cysteine? Rocco
so, cysteine is an amino acid. It's an assist and any essential amino
acid. But the actual name is n A setyl cysteine and n N a
styl assistine or or NAC is a supplement and was actually a drug. Well,
it was made a drug back in nineteen sixty three, but has now
there's a big controversy over the other years about the FDA allowing it to be
a supplement again because it is it's called a conditional essential amino acid and that
and that just means that that it helps to support a certain certain other amino
acids, and that would be glutifying. All right, What what does NAC
actually do for you when you consume it and you've got the right amount in
your system? What does it do for the bond? So what it does
is it supports and also helps glutifian uptakes. So a glutifian is a super
antioxidant and it helps, Uh, it helps with tissue or repair. Now
most people take NAC And what is it was it was a prescribe for and
still is is for is the help of the mucous aligning of the lungs.
Yeah, it helps if you've got if you restory, yeah, if you've
got chronic respiratory conditions, if you want to increase your fertility perhaps and your
brain health, NAC can help. And and the thing is is this naturally
occurs in high protein foods right right, So so all all animal products are
going to have n A C in them. And then uh, and what
why we why I love it is because not too many people and absolutely no
doctors really understand NAC. And and when COVID happened, no one you know,
well obviously no one knew was or or knew anything at that time,
and and and this was a really great uh sub And I use it every
day with a glue defiant because it's a it's a one two punch, especially
in Cincinnati with the with allergies and the weather, you know, going up
and down, up and down from hot to cold, hot to cold.
So so we use it. So I use it. And also because uh,
when I was at a ground zero many years ago, you know,
for nine eleven attacks, I developed a long issue. I actually cured that
with with salt therapy. But I support it still to this day with with
the n with the NAC and other glutaphians. All Right, Roco, thank
you so much for for more go to train with Roco dot com time out
for the Tom Davis Diaries. I refer to these as the and with more
wacky wild news stories from around the country and around the world to hear is
Tom Davis. Good morning, Gary, Jeff. This week a kook from
Kocomo hitting all four corners on foot. But first, some guy just spent
the night in his garage after his cat trapped him inside. It was around
one am that Christian Wilker went out to the garage to check on something when
his cat, Clara Belle, somehow locked him in. He tried to escape
a couple of times before giving up and waiting for his sister to come home
and let him out. She got there around seven am. He says he's
not holding it against the cat. A lady who's famous on the internet is
doing something gross. Amanda Leone is an online model, whatever that means,
and she's gone viral this week for selling her used bath water, and she
says she's doing it four of all things, to fund her wedding and honeymoon.
She says the water isn't for consumption, just sentimentality. And just when
you think that nobody would take her up on on it, the perverts have
rushed to the front. She sold out in four days. Some dude from
Kokomo is making a name for himself running all across the country Forrest Gump style.
Cameron Balser is running the outside perimeter of the United States and the dude
is cooking. He's already covered six thousand miles and he should be done by
June. He says he's doing it to spread joy. And finally, it
doesn't take much to make you famous these days, and meal is no different.
Meal is a woman from the UK that identifies, as you guessed it,
a dog. Yes. Meal sleeps in a crate, has her handlers
take her for a walk, and eats dog treats. Meal says that she's
more in touch with her primal side and is not bothered with other people's opinions
about her. It's good because I'm holding back a very strong one right now.
Next week, she thought she was buying tickets for Taylor Swift. Instead,
she chased down the man who swindled her and Fellvin Loff have a great
weekend. When do you like to listen to Scott's Loan? I listen when
I need a good laugh. I like the way you think I like to
listen when I'm riding my turtle. I bet that I always listen at work.
It's the only thing that keeps me sane in that soul sucking pit of
misery. That'll show the boss I love to listen to him when I'm getting
wax. I do that too, So I guess anytime is the right time

that's perfectly fine with me. Be your salp maam live like you want to
live. Honey. How about some science stuff? A science Minute with Science
Mike on Saturday eight oh six. Yes, as a ninety scientist who's a
bit surprising at the double blinded me. Michael, good morning, Good morning.
So, uh success and failure I wanted to get to I didn't know
if you were talking about this. Uh the SpaceX starship launch. They lost
it in re entry over the Indian Ocean, I guess, but it's gone
farther than any other of these starship launches that they've done in the past.
Did you follow, I know you follow that you love space stuff. Well,
I watched the lift off. I watched the h I I kind of
shut off. I noticed it was coming back and I think they reached a
sustained orbit and then it kept uh re entry, it kind of decompressed,
had the decompression issue, and it kind of uh disintegrated coming back down to
Mother Earth. So each time these things left off it they get they get
closer and closer. But uh, I don't know, I don't I don't
know when they're going to be ready to put a put a human on it.
But uh yeah, I mean the thing about it is the people still
don't We've been going into space now for over six years and putting people in
space, you know, close to sixty years, over sixty years, but
people still don't understand how difficult it is to break the bonds of Earth's gravity
and come back. And when people ask, you know why it's been over
fifty years since we last went to the Moon, there are serious issues.
I mean we found out during the Apollo, the test flight that burned up
on the pad. This is this is not i thing the design, the
design of their engine that the space acts. They have actually thirty three independent
smaller engines that fire this rocket, and as opposed to the Saturn which had
three huge, three huge cones that they that lift off of the unit.
But they they've the very first left off their engines with like half of them
failed and now they're getting more successful, have mullfire and re entry they fired
to come back down and it's a it's a different engineering for for well,
this is this is supposedly the rocket that is going to take people, human
beings back to the Moon because NASA has the contract with them, And yeah,
I know, but it's been but three or four years it's been going
on now for Space AX. I mean, we we had issues with Saturn,
the Saturn five rocket initially for the first couple of years. But the
problems we incurred back then we kind of solved with paper and pencil and finally
got it through root Athlete just to get it off the you know what was
that saying that Alan Alan Sheppard when he was going off on the first first
mission just a little little suborbital flight, like yeah, ninety what it was
ninety minutes? It's like, what was going through your mind? He said,
to think I'm in a rocket that was built by the lowest bidder.
Anything else on your on your radar this morning? We're going to next week,
We're gonna we're gonna spend a couple of week, couple of six consecutive
weeks talking about the eclipse. Next week we'll get into the the science of
it and uh interesting aspects compared to the twenty seventeen eclipse. So we'll have
a couple of sessions on that. Well, I'm you know what I've said,
my wife Chris to two point zero and I have talked about apparently there
is a mass wedding being conducted by the mayor of Trenton, Ohio, which
is you know, easy driving distance during the eclipse, and we're talking about
that. But I'm just thinking about the logistics of traveling there and you know,
all the nonsense and all the noise. So I don't know, but
yeah, yeah, Mike. My comment is watching some video from the twenty
seventeen and all the people gathered around. My comment to everybody's like, just
shut up and watch it. You don't need to make a comment. You'll
need to go to ooh and ah. Just let it, let it occur.
You don't need to film it with your phone or try to do some
silly stuff like that. No, no, you know what, but it
is. It is a once in a lifetime kind of occurrence. It is
longer than that, and we'll discuss, all right. I look forward to
it. I relish the opportunity, Michael, thank you so much. About

Rick. Rick and I have been working on his podcast called but God,
and you can find that on YouTube. Rick Green on YouTube Spirit Works Ministry.
Just check that out. And Rick's name is spelled last name spelled g
R E E n E. Rick Green on YouTube Spirit Works Ministry to find
the podcast, Rick. How are you this morning? Fred? Hey,
good morning Gary. I woke up praying statistically for you and your listeners.
Well, thank you very much, thank you very much. I've had some
aches and pains in the last week, and I asked Rick if he would
kindly pray for me. And they've been a couple of times. In fact,
it was yesterday or the day before. You said I just finished praying
for you, and I said, I just felt it. Thank you,
Praise God. Now I know that before we get to the verse this morning,
Rick or anything else that's important, I'm gonna put out the bat signal
now. Uh. Rick is a big fan of DJ Reader, who was
leaving the Bengals, his favorite defensive player, and he wants a chance to
meet him. So if anybody is in contact with DJ Reader, and I'll
ask Moe here a little bit later on, if there's a chance that Rick
Green could meet DJ Reader, that would just uh that would make your week
or your month, right Rick? Oh my god, thank you. Gary.
I bought your jersey last year. I message on my Instagram. I
said, DJ, I won't open it till I meet you. So I'm
still in the plastic. Okay, No, Well, why why the offenite,
Why why the affinity with DJ so much? Because he's just a bull?
Don When they take two guys to take down one man. Oh yeah,
you got my attention, no doubt, no doubt about. So what
have you? What have you got for us this week? Rick? Today
we're com up from Joshua, Chapter one, verse nine. It says,
have I not commanded you be strong and courageous, Do not be afraid,
do not be discouraged. For the Lord your God will be with you everywhere
you go. Amen. Yeah, I love it. That's my piece right
there. Well it kind of sounds like DJ Reader, doesn't it. You're
a big boy he ain't that baby. He's a big boy, strong,
strong, and courageous. Yeah, all right, wow, that's funny.
Girl like that. All right, brother, We will see you tomorrow and
do another butt God podcast for people to check out. Again, you want
to check out Rick Green on YouTube Spirit Works Ministry. It's the butt God
Podcast and what it is is testimonies from people on what God has done and
is doing in their lives. And it's it's pretty cool. Thanks Rick,
God, bless you, thank you. I have a bless day, all
right, man eight eighteen at seven hundred WLW. This morning at nine,
Mike Allen goes full thor and wields his mighty devil of justice on seven hundred
WLW. You have to know York Jilli went out there this morning. As
temperaures are in the mid to upper thirties. You do warm to the low
sixties with lots of sunshine this afternoon. But tomorrow, to wrap up the
weekend, you're only hitting an afternoon high in the low fifties. For me,
sever your weather station, I'm nine first Warning Meteorologist Cameron Harten on news
radio seven hundred WLW seven hundred WLW Sport William Tomlinson. The college basketball conference
play wraps up this weekend, and we're on the way to the big dance.
Yeah, Conference champ week this week and last week heartbreaker for the Kentucky
wild catch yesterday as they fall to Texas A. And there are you okay?
I mean, I know that you've been kind of desponded this morning because
the Wildcats allowed another team to score ninety seven points on them. I mean,
are any of us okay? CALIPERI passionate defense, don't I just don't
understand, man, I just don't get it. I like offense and offenses
the way. In twenty twenty four, but I think I could have scored
ten or fifteen points on the Kentucky defense, and it's all like second chance
points. It's no if the big man goes out to block a layup,
no one's boxing out the backside. And the only person that did do that
was Antonio Reeves, and they called him for a foul on it every time
because the guy would jump in the air and he'd cut him out underneath.
Liam. I have a suggestion, let's focus on the winners, not the
losers. What do we got, Well, one more loser. Ohio State
felled Illinois seventy seven to seventy four in the Big Ten quarterfinals last night,
and every team around here is a loser because I don't think any of them
will be picked tomorrow for selection Sunday. But we got some championship games today.
Big East Championship. Marquette faces Yukon at Madison Square Garden at six thirty.
In the ACC Championship, NC State hit three at a buzzer to send
their game vers Virginia to overtime, where they pulled out a victory. Their
reward is a battle versus UNC and the ACC Championship at eight thirty tonight Big
Twelve Championship Iowa State in Houston. The one and two ranked teams meet up
in the Phillips sixty six Big Twelve Championship, and that game is also tonight,
all right, fantastic. They select the teams for the NCAA's tomorrow yes
and we got red spring training baseball today after a rain out yesterday yep,
twelve days until opening day, rain out yesterday versus the Royals. But they
are back in action. They will be hosting the Mariners today at four h
five, and you can listen right here on seven hundred wlw FC Cincinnati,
coming off their CONCACAF loss to Monterey, returns to MLS play, traveling to
Foxboro, Massachusetts state based the New England Revolution. They actually do have a
chance to win this game, even on the road, because there's nobody named
Vasquez that they'll be playing again. That man's single handed lead was on a
revenge tour. The game is tomorrow at one point thirty is Pregame coverage kicks
at two on ESPN fifteen thirty fantastic. One of the Rock and Roll archaeology

Doctor Westside Jim. Early voting underway today and the primary elections to decide
who will face off against Shared Brown in the Senate race in November, among
other things, and congressional race is also up for grabs. And I decried
the idiocy of all of it, that the campaign answer just like the worst,
and I think about all the money that's being spent on them. It's
like, geez, can you come up with something creative for a change in
the answer apparently is no, it's all pro or anti Trump, which,
again, as I mentioned earlier this morning, I'm a Trump guy, I'm
a Trump voter. I'll be a Trump voter a third time in November hopefully.
But your connections to Donald Trump do not interest me. If you are
running for the Senate or the House, who are you as a candidate as
a person, That's what's important. Food for thought. Don't eat too much

Here's what's trending from the Iheartsports Network presented by DraftKings Fantasy Sports. In
what could play significant part in deciding the top team in the West bracket,
the Arizona Wildcats fall in the semi final of the Pac twelve Tournament to Oregon.
The Bengals are bringing back one of their wide receivers, agreeing on a
one year deal with Trenton Irwin, who played an all sixteen games last season.
And Ohio State's journey in the Big Tournament ends in the quarterfinals as Illinois
manages to sink a few late breed throws to knock out the buck Eys.

what the boys in summer are coming back. It's about time, isn't it?
Seven w l W looking forward to opening day, Gary Jeff Walker,
You're at the home of the Reds, seven hundred w l W with mister
moe Egger, who will be talking lots of Reds, lots more as time
goes along. But there are other things to discuss as well, and let's
let's let's attempt that. Hey Mo, what's up well? Number one,
it was interesting to see Nick Saban's press conference or interview on ni L this
week and why he stepped down as a college football coach, and somebody else
made the point that, you know, I think it was Dan Dakatschew,
who also was a coach and football player, who said that, you know,
yeah, okay, maybe the message should be coming from someone who didn't
make millions upon millions of dollars being a college football coach as Nick Saban did,
but he understood some of what Nick Saban was saying, how the game
has so dramatically fundamentally changed at this point because of the money that's involved.
For years, let's not kid ourselves, we have used the term student athletes,
but when it came to high profile athletic programs on college campuses at the
big universities, in the power conferences, they were always more athlete than students.
For sure. They may have been required to go to class, and
they may have been required to fulfill a commitment that they made when they agreed
to a scholarship at said university or college. But yeah, I mean grade
point averages usually only matter places like Stanford and Vanderbilt, Northwestern Duke a handful
of Notre Dame a handful of others. So from the standpoint though, what
he was saying with the transfer portal and college players getting paid, if they're
using your name, your image, and your likeness and they're making money off
of it, I say, yes, you're entitled to some of that.
But I've always said mo that there ought to be certain strings attached to that,
as in, you have to actually complete a degree. All the money's
put for you an escrow in an account, and you get it as soon
as you either graduate or go on to the pros. Just your thoughts on
that, are there changes you would make to the current NIL situation, So
you just don't have universities being the highest bidder, or someone's activities or or
participation in their sports programs. Are the changes you would make? I would
change nothing about nil In particular, I don't believe in capping salaries in any
regard. I think everybody should be free to go and get whatever they can
get. If we're going to cap nil, let's cap the salaries of coaches,
let's cap the salaries. Let's let's cap what what every school spends on
recruiting and and and deploy it to other resources at the university. So I'm
not an opponent of capping nil by any stretch of the imagination. Uh,
if you want to slow down the movement of players, it's very simple.
Make them sign contracts. Now. If they sign contracts, they're going to
be bound to that contract for a certain number of years. There's our solution.
You know, I thought what Nick Saban was said. I I thought
what he said, much of it hit to Mark. But look, look
at the environment we're in college athletics right now. We're so concerned about student
ATHLETs. We want these we want these athletes to be students. Okay,
why are we putting UCLA in the Big Ten. We're now forget football and
basketball. We're going to take the women's tennis team and put them on cross
country jaunts traversing the Midwest all the way to New Jersey to compete in athletics.
Does that help the academic profile of those students? We've blown up traditional
rivalries because we're shifting schools from one conference to another. Why are we doing
that. We're doing it because of money. Coaches are hopscotching around the country.
Why are they doing that. They're doing it because of money. So
all the players are doing is doing something that's reflective of the only thing that
matters in all of college sports. We have decided the conference affiliation, geography,
traditional rivalries, academic development. We have decided to make all of those
things take a back seat in college sports because of money. So why aren't
the WO MO? We lost MO for a moment, Moe are you there?
Tell you what Liam? Call? Go ahead and call Moe back,
because I think he was making some very very good points and suddenly just disappeared
from view. But my thing, I'm not talking about caps on how much
you can make, but I guess maybe I am. What I'm trying to
get at is why why would college athletics be so much like professional athletics and
a coach? Can you know? Coaches are sneaky and they can they can
just say, well, we're going to pay you two hundred doubs. Forget
about NIL, We're going to make sure we're going to guarantee you two hundred
thousand dollars up front to come sign here. Mo. That's what I was
kind of getting at. Yeah. Look, I mean what Nick Saban advocated
was for there to beat direct revenue sharing from from essentially the schools to the
student. Ask yeah, how you do that? I don't know how you
do that. I don't know how you do that in a way that's fair
and equitable. But I think NIL has been portrayed to be this large evil.
And it's always interesting to me the people who seem to be most anti
NIL usually seem to be in other realms, the most capitalists, And to
me, you can't be for one and opposed to the other. So NIL
gets really unfairly portrayed. I think the transfer portal gets unfairly portrayed when there
are restrictions on how much the coaches can move. I will be in favor
of restrictions over how much the athletes. I'm lucky there. But you know
again, I mean, we have decided that the only thing in college sports
that matters is money. You may think that's okay, you may think that's
awful. But if it's the only thing that matters with college presidents, conference
commissioners, coaches, and everybody else involved, why should it not be the
most important thing for the perspective or actual student athletes. Excellent? All right,
NCAA Selection weekend. Of course, the conferences are finishing up their tournaments
to decide who gets into the big dance, and many of those slots are
already filled. I would imagine, have we come a long way towards making
it the sixty eight best teams? I guess in regards to the NCAA Men's
and Women's Division one Championships, have we come a long way in seeding these
properly? Do they do a better job, does the committee do a better
job than it used to? Or are we going to have all this wailing
and gnashing of teeth like we do every year because some teams didn't really all
play that well but they think they should get in anyway. Yeah, I
think a lot of that has kind of gone away, right, I think
for two reasons. Number one, they've expanded the field to sixty eight.
I am certainly among the majority of college basketball fans who hope they don't expand
it more. I think, unfortunately, it's inevitable that they will. But
you know, I mean, it's it's one thing to be team number sixty
five on the outside looking in at something else to be team number sixty nine
looking And I also think we just have more information, right, We have
more metrics, we have more games that are available to watch, and so
I think it's a lot easier for the committee itself to explain, Look,
metrically, here's why we took this team instead of this team, Whereas you
know, maybe twenty years ago, we didn't have nearly as much information,
and frankly, there wasn't as much transparency. I think one of the best
things that the basketball Selection Committee did, and I don't know that they do
this anymore, but for years they had a mock bracket selection where they would
invite members of the media to essentially fill the shoes of the people on the
committee, and they would spend you know, the same amount of time putting
together a bracket as they actually do there in Indianapolis. And I I think
that I think the the amount of transparency that we've seen with this process over
the last decade or so has decreased the amount of whining. There's always going
to be a team that feels like we deserve to get in. But I've
said this for years, I never feel bad for the team on the outside
looking in. Look, the criteria is not that difficult. Win games.
Yeah, And so whenever I see a coach or I see, you know,
a fan who's crying that a certain team didn't get in, my response
to that is, well, they didn't fit the criteria. The criteria is
to win more games. They should have won more games. So I think
the committee does on a year to year basis, a pretty good job.
I think there's always, from a seating perspective, one or two things that
you could wonder about, But I think they do a good job of putting
together the bracket. And again, I think just that the transparency involved and
the amount of information we have about these teams has really cut down on the
amount of post bracket complaints. As the winner of the annual Struggles for the
Steak competition during UC basketball broadcast, I always I always wondered this, do
you get to choose where the steak is from? That that those guys have
to pay for mo I should you know. Typically it's because I mean,
I mean, no Golden Corral here. Okay, not to demean them,
but you know, let's let's elevate a little bit. Yeah, I'm no,
that's that's not going to happen. Uh. Typically, Typically it's the
the the steak dinner has occurred on a road trip. Right. So for
instance, last year, Terry Nelson got his steak for winning the previous season.
We went to a place in UH in New Orleans and and he got
his steak. Dan Hord won it. Last year we have yet to get
so we're kind of having a backlog of steak dinner so it discontinues. God
knows when I'm gonna get mine. But yeah, it's it's winner's choice,
and you try to do it within reason. You know, we're not going
to go to the most expensive place, but we're we're not exactly going to
steak an eggs at waffle house either, if it's still there. Insists that
they take you to Sperry Steakhouse in Nashville, Tennessee and get the blackened prime
rib. Absolutely, I'm delicious. That sounds incredible, absolutely delicious. What
did you think of the Bengals signings this week of flurry of activity. Interesting,
interesting week. I think some good. The Geno Stone signing I think
is really interesting in safety. I love players who are still ascending. You
know, Ginostone was a seventh round pick and it felt like in Baltimore,
every time they gave him more to do, more responsibility, he rose to
the challenge. That tells me you can put even more on his play.
That tells me he's still growing into the role. And I'm really really intrigued
by that signing. Mike ISSICKI the tight end. You know, ignore what
he did last year in New England. If you take his four year average
over his last four seasons with the Dolphins, he averaged eleven point six yards
per reception. That is a level of explosiveness from the tight end position.
Well you just imagine in this offense what that can mean. I'm really intrigued
by him. I think they accomplished what they wanted to do at running back.
Where you know, they say goodbye to Joe Mixon. Joe ends up
in a place where not only does he have a chance to win, but
he gets a new contract and the Bengals get a running back who it's cheaper
and I think more explosive. I think what's fair to wonder about, though,
is the defensive tackle spot. Look Dj Reader was, I think for
two years, the Bengals' second most valuable player. He leaves for Detroit.
Defensive tackle was a weakness while he was here. I think it's fair to
say right now, as things stand today, it's at least not a strength.
I think DJ's interesting because he as good of a player as he was,
he did suffer that quad injury, and so did the Bengals bucket signing
him because you know, just concerns over his squad, concerns over whether or
not he's going to be able to play week one. I think it's fair
to scrutinize that. Also, they still don't know who this starting right tackle
is going to be, and it could be somebody they draft. The class
is really deep at right tackle, but if you're hoping for, you know,
a veteran player to kind of bridge the gap between Jonah Williams who left
for Arizona, and who they take in the draft to play right tackle,
that player has yet to materialize. And so they've had an interesting week and
I think in many respects a productive week, but I think there's still some
pretty legitimate questions about positions that we were wondering about at this time a week
ago. Have you seen or heard anything so far about Red spring training to
give you renewed optimism that many of us had after last season. Well,
you know, I think some really interesting battles are playing out. You know,
Stuart Fairchild has made a heck of a bid to make this club with
just a killer spring. You know, obviously we found out the noelve Marte
news last week, where you know, he's going to miss half the season,
and that maybe compromises their depth a little bit. I think it's look
the story of this season. I think all would agree this team is going
to go as far as as the starting pitching is going to take them,
and there is so much upside and so much raw potential that there's not a
lot of experience and there's not a lot of reliability yet. And I never
read too much in the spring training results, right, but there have been
a lot of games where the starting pitcher has really struggled. And you know,
I think you're being reasonable if you go God, you know what I
was hoping in March. I would see some things that would lead me to
believe that these the staff as a whole, is going to be a little
bit more dependable once the real games begin. I don't think that that's happened,
but I'm still optimistic. I still think this team's going to score a
boatload of runs. I still think this team is going to be extraordinarily fun
to watch from an offensive perspective. And I do think this team is going
to have a better bullpen Alex Young and I was listening in the seven to
fifty report with you talking about his absence. That doesn't help, but I
like what they've done with this bullpen. And the question for me is how
much is this bullpen going to be asked to do? Because last year the
Red's got the shortest average start of any team in the National League. That
can't be the case this coming season. No Egor, thank you so much,
have a fantastic weekend. Happy Saint Patti's Day. Counselor Mike Allen Saturday
