WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:03.600 He's actually the Scott's Loan Show. I am not Scott'sloan Show, but if 2 00:00:03.600 --> 00:00:08.160 you're tuning in for that, I apologize and well, better luck next year. 3 00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:13.279 Literally, Gary Jeff Walker in for Sloaney today with a kind of a 4 00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:16.600 daytime version of what I do at night. Here with some of the same 5 00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:20.719 Gary Jeff Posse. Guests have been rounded up and are ready to go. 6 00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:26.039 If you love Sloaney, well, I'm sorry this ain't that, but hopefully 7 00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:28.800 we'll have some fun and we'll talk about things that are important. It has 8 00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:37.759 been all together a wonderful so far wonderful holiday time, Christmas and looking ahead 9 00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:41.679 to new year for me and my family, and I hope your fate has 10 00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:47.119 been the same. I will tell you that our first guest today spent five 11 00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:54.600 weeks, five weeks overseas. He did get to come home for Christmas, 12 00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:59.880 so good for him. He is with the Center for Immigration Studies. He 13 00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:03.400 is a well known, renowned author of a couple of books, first America's 14 00:01:03.400 --> 00:01:08.359 Covert Border War, which seemingly we have lost at this point, and the 15 00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:12.719 latest book is Overrun. As I mentioned, he works for the Center for 16 00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:17.120 Immigration Studies and for the last five weeks. He has been in fire flowing 17 00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:23.120 places like Budapest studying how the immigration crisis, and there has been a crisis 18 00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:29.040 in Europe for quite a long time, how that is evolving. He is 19 00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:30.879 a first hand look. He was one of the first people that I talked 20 00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:38.799 to and one of the first people who was reporting on the certain death spiral 21 00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:44.000 crisis on our southern border. Talking to the people who are coming in from 22 00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:48.239 not just the Triangle countries, not just Mexico, but from all over the 23 00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:55.640 world Communist China, India, terrorist countries, and they are still flowing freely 24 00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:00.280 to talk about his experiences in Europe and what's going on, and looks like 25 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:07.039 Europe is thinking about actually solidifying their borders again because the experiment has not worked 26 00:02:07.080 --> 00:02:14.520 well of being a sanctuary country or being a sanctuary city. And we're finding 27 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:19.360 that to be the case in American cities that were so open to armed just 28 00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.560 oh a year or two ago, now their arms are getting full. Please 29 00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:28.000 welcome to the show, Todd Bensman from the Center for Immigration Studies. Todd, 30 00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.520 Good morning, and happy New Year. Almost yeah, thank you for 31 00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:37.800 having me. Happy New Year, and Merry Christmas, and good tidings. 32 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:42.879 Appreciate you having me. Yeah, so, first and foremost, the latest 33 00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:47.960 book is overrun from your own eyewitness accounts and news reporting from our southern border. 34 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:54.400 And you took a sabbatical. You were tasked with the not a sabbatical, 35 00:02:54.439 --> 00:03:00.439 but you were tasked with the charge of being in in Europe and studying 36 00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:06.159 what's going on there with immigration. So give us just kind of a an 37 00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:10.719 overall view of what's happening on the other side of the pond where it comes 38 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:15.280 to sure immigration. What did you see and what's going on there? Sure? 39 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:20.039 Well, there are a lot of striking parallels between what's happening to Europe 40 00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:24.240 right now and the US southern border. So that's one of the reasons I 41 00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:29.000 went to see how the Europeans are handling this and what they're going to do 42 00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:34.439 about it. There is a major, major surge in illegal immigration into the 43 00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:38.680 European Union. That's the twenty seven countries that are all kind of banded together 44 00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:46.800 in this kind of collaborative and it has external borders, you know, five 45 00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:52.680 thousand you know, miles of sea and land, very tough to patrol. 46 00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:57.840 And in twenty fifteen they had a matt major like you know, three million 47 00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:02.520 people just poured in from Afghanistan, and they kind of thought that they had 48 00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:09.120 it under control in more recent years, but in twenty twenty three they saw 49 00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:17.240 tripling in the total numbers encountered going over their borders, the most since twenty 50 00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:24.720 fifteen, twenty sixteen, three hundred and fifty thousand at last count you know, 51 00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:28.720 up from you know, one hundred thousand from the year before, a 52 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.680 couple of years before. So they've got a problem. And one of the 53 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:41.160 major routes that was largely shut down by fencing, called the Balkan Route, 54 00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:47.800 coming up from Turkey, Greece, through Macedonia, Kosovo, Bosnia, Croatia 55 00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:55.399 and on up through Slovenia and into the EU, is on fire again. 56 00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:57.959 And that's where I went. That's where I went. I went to eight 57 00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:03.560 different countries all along they're interviewing people and immigrants and all the rest. And 58 00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:11.199 I guess some of the main takeaways that I would offer is that the Europeans 59 00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:17.720 are especially the voting publics in all of these countries, do not want this 60 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:23.839 again. They went through it already once twenty fifteen. Memories are still pretty 61 00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:30.279 fresh from that, and they are moving sharply to the right to embrace right 62 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:36.199 wing and conservative parties in all of these different countries which are forcing their liberals 63 00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:42.560 that are actually a government to take pretty tough action, or to consider tough 64 00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:49.639 action that would include, you know, deportation and detention and sort of universal 65 00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:58.600 toughness along all of their external borders policies that you know, we obviously here 66 00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:04.000 in the United States might consider or reflect on, or pay attention to at 67 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:08.800 the very least. Well, Todd, here's the thing. What happened in 68 00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:14.560 Europe in twenty fifteen that you referenced and is happening again or trying to foment 69 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:20.639 again, should have been an indication that this was not where America should be 70 00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:25.199 going, and this is not a pattern that we should be following. And 71 00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:30.480 yet we did not learn from that lesson. Apparently that there are parts of 72 00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:35.600 France that no longer have a French culture whatsoever because of the influx of mostly 73 00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:42.560 Muslim immigrants into that country, whether you call them refugees or immigrants or what. 74 00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.560 There has to be some kind of control of your own borders or you 75 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:54.800 do not have a sovereign state. And this is I think we're seeing this 76 00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:59.439 in this country too. If you look at the polling about what people think 77 00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:04.759 about, particularly the Biden administration's border policy, which has been basically no border 78 00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:12.160 policy whatsoever, and the continuance of catch and release, and you know, 79 00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:16.959 bussing to all parts of our country scattered out, not just from sanctuary cities, 80 00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:23.959 but little towns all over, and it is definitely changing the shape and 81 00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:29.160 culture of these places, and not for the better. They're not contributing or 82 00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:31.439 adding in my opinion, and a lot of people are holding that opinion. 83 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.600 But you mentioned that there's been a massive swing to the right in Europe. 84 00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:41.319 I think it's starting to happen here. Just your thoughts, right, I 85 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:45.279 would agree. I think, you know, what's going on in Europe as 86 00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:48.360 a harbinger of what ought to be happening here, or maybe very well be 87 00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:54.639 happening here in the United States. You know, Geart Wilders, a Dutch 88 00:07:54.720 --> 00:08:00.480 politician who led the Party for Freedom just you know, want to resounding victory, 89 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:05.480 is probably going to be you know, leading that country, the Netherlands. 90 00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:09.920 Uh. And he's a staunchly, staunchly uh you know, anti illegal 91 00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:15.920 immigration, especially from Muslim countries. Uh. This guy was elected a leader 92 00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:20.600 and just a month or two ago, UH and many of the other In 93 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:28.639 Germany, the you know, the the kind of right leaning UH party UH 94 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:33.240 is leading in all the polls, and there are elections coming up in the 95 00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:39.879 summer over there. UH. So we're seeing the voting populations over there. 96 00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:43.679 They've just had it. They don't want this, and they're demanding UH, 97 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:54.039 you know, stricter, tougher, deterring detention and deportation policies, which right 98 00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:58.960 now don't exist in the EU. UH. The eu IS has taken most 99 00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:05.399 of the countries there are run by liberal governments, or many of the countries 100 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:09.720 there run by liberal governments that do what we do here in the United States, 101 00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:16.320 which is we let them in and let them stay and never deport anyone. 102 00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.039 They've got like a million person backlog of deportees over there that they won't 103 00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:26.200 they won't execute. I interviewed immigrants over there who said I'm coming in because 104 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:30.519 i know I'll never be deported. I had an Algerian tell me that in 105 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:33.360 English on the record, and I put his video up, and I had 106 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:39.639 others tell me the same thing. It's it's just this same policy that is 107 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:46.279 responsible for what's happening at our own southern border. I saw an interview with 108 00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:52.759 an immigrant at our southern border last night or the night before, with his 109 00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:56.440 demands to be let into the country and be allowed to stay. It was 110 00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:01.960 demanding that President Biden did the These people are all looking at Joe Biden and 111 00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:09.600 no wonder since he offered the invitation right from the beginning his campaigning, he 112 00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:15.679 offered the invitation, and he's he's left. He's lived up to that promise 113 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:20.480 of letting everyone in and not deporting people. I mean, it's just insane. 114 00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:26.080 And the fact that they're actually talking about ramping up to portion deportations in 115 00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:30.840 this country right now is strictly because it's an election year and the American people 116 00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:35.519 don't want this. Right the ship, I think we're seeing the ship start 117 00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:39.919 to turn in the United States Politically. It didn't in twenty twenty two in 118 00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:45.080 the midterms, no, but here we are a year plus later, and 119 00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:52.320 cities like Chicago, New York, Denver, Boston, Washington, DC are 120 00:10:52.480 --> 00:11:03.200 absolutely reeling with controversy and rebellion by Democratic constituencies like the black communities and Latino 121 00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:13.480 communities that always vote blue are now demanding that the Biden administration reversed this because 122 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:20.039 their communities are being wounded, grievously wounded and hurt by the money being diverted 123 00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:24.799 from their communities to these foreign nationals that are mostly here illegally. Many of 124 00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:28.840 the people who are many of the people who are coming to this decision are 125 00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:33.320 legal immigrants to this country who've come from all over the world. But they've 126 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:39.039 jumped through the hoops. They've waited there sometimes ten fifteen years to become legal 127 00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:45.720 residents, and they are most they take the most umbrage I think at a 128 00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:50.159 lot of this illegal immigration, this line jumping that has been going on full 129 00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:54.639 throttle ever since the Biden administration took office. You know, you can talk 130 00:11:54.679 --> 00:12:00.000 about the numbers, the three hundred and fifty thousand number that you referenced earlier 131 00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:05.399 in one country, the twelve thousand, the record number, like the twelve 132 00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:11.759 thousand people a day coming into our country just in this last wave. It's 133 00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:16.720 nuts if you can actually equate that to the size of the population of a 134 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:22.080 city. You know, three hundred and fifty thousand is slightly more than the 135 00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:26.639 population of the city is Cincinnati, it's insided city limits. It's more than 136 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:30.759 the city of Cincinnati has come in. When you say three hundred and fifty 137 00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:35.120 thousand, if you're talking about twelve thousand people a day coming in Todd that 138 00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:41.519 is the small town where I live, Southgate, Kentucky, by twice. 139 00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.799 I mean, it's massive. Just to say the numbers is one thing, 140 00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:54.600 but to understand in context of America's population, it's absolutely their enormous numbers and 141 00:12:54.720 --> 00:13:01.519 they should scare everyone to death. Well, yeah, numbers are unbelievable. 142 00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:07.440 They're they're they're the biggest numbers of border crossers. I think in the history 143 00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:11.440 of the world. I'm not aware of any other nation that has ever even 144 00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:16.559 during wartime World War One, World War Two. I mean, just since 145 00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:22.559 Monday, we had forty five thousand cross the southern border that fills Yankee Stadium 146 00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.840 man three and a half days. Forty five thousand people. And that's not 147 00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:31.480 including the gataways. The people we don't know about, including those, are 148 00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.600 just the ones that turn themselves in to because they know they're being processed in 149 00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:41.759 within twenty four hours, they're in the country. And the cities that are 150 00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:48.360 Democrat cities with Democrat constituencies that always vote Democrat, are absolutely furious. Go 151 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:56.200 look, go google the Chicago Assembly chambers and see what's been going on every 152 00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.600 week, week after week, month after month of rebellion, open rebellion. 153 00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:07.519 We're voting Republican. We can't believe we've been voting Democrats for you people all 154 00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:13.679 this time. That sort of thing. And I think that it's very similar 155 00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:20.240 to what's going on in Europe, and the Europeans are now implementing policies that 156 00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:28.399 may, if they just enforce them, actually turn the tide. This is 157 00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:31.240 the thing, Todd. We have all kinds and we don't need new immigration 158 00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:37.279 legislation in this country. We've got laws on the books. They're just not 159 00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:41.240 being they're not being allowed to enforce the laws that already exist. And you 160 00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:46.799 cannot you cannot have a country without borders, and you cannot have a country, 161 00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:50.080 a sovereign country without the rule of law. They've been ignoring the rule 162 00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:54.639 of law, and they being the Biden administration or anybody else who's not allowing 163 00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.960 border patrol to do their job and deport people who come into this country illegal, 164 00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.519 which should happen automatically every time they catch them at the border until they 165 00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:09.960 can prove they have a legitimate asylum request and because you want a better job 166 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:13.840 is not a legitimate asylum request. That's right, that's right. Yeah, 167 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:18.679 I mean that's really always the key. When you detain and then detained for 168 00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:24.679 lengthy periods of time, which which is the law, and then deport which 169 00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:30.919 is the law, they stop coming. Nobody wants to lay down ten thousand 170 00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:35.480 dollars in smuggling fees and sell everything they own if there's a good chance that 171 00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:39.320 they're not going to make it. It's just that simple, and the Europeans 172 00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:43.559 have figured that out. It's the same there as it is here. This 173 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:50.159 whole thing could be shut down at these levels, could be shut down inside 174 00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:54.200 of about forty eight hours. Yes, with I mean, this is not 175 00:15:54.120 --> 00:16:00.759 a tough calculus at all. It's not even as hard as a route cube. 176 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:03.960 It's not difficult at all. Just follow the law and do what the 177 00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:10.320 law says. And then they talk about the inhumane treatment of the immigrants. 178 00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:17.639 They are facilitating more inhumane treatment by allowing this NonStop flood to come in with 179 00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:21.840 none of nowhere to go for these people. Well, remember that when you 180 00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:27.679 hear the words inhumane and cruel, their definitions. The people who are defining 181 00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:36.720 that define it as detention and deportation. The exercise of the law is what 182 00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:42.399 they think is inhumane and cruel. So therefore dispense with those inhumane and cruel 183 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:48.480 things and let them all in. So sixty so sixty people being being killed 184 00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:52.080 in a tractor trailer because they have no food, air, or water. 185 00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:59.200 That's humane and cruel. That's not cruel, that's not inhumane. It's unbelievable. 186 00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:03.319 People drowning coming across the Rio Grande. That's not inhumane and crew all 187 00:17:03.359 --> 00:17:08.160 because of failed policy and not following the law.

Rick Robinson, author of 208 00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:17.200 nineteen sixty eight. He's an attorney and he is our guest. Rick. 209 00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:21.799 How are you doing, Gary Chef? I am doing great. Man. 210 00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:25.240 You know what, You listen to a song like that and you come to 211 00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:30.640 understand that nineteen sixty eight came with its own soundtrack, Yeah, I did 212 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:34.200 Yeah, I did it Yeah. And by the way, today, on 213 00:19:34.279 --> 00:19:41.359 December twenty eighth and nineteen sixty eight, two big events happened du tell. 214 00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:48.720 First off, the first East Coast rock festival took place, the Miami Pop 215 00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:52.880 Festival December twenty eighth, nineteen sixty eight, featured Joni Mitchell, Leetwood, 216 00:19:52.920 --> 00:20:00.359 Max, John Kay and Stephen Wolf and The Grateful Death and the the other 217 00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:04.400 thing that happened was the white album Hit Number one. How about that though? 218 00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:11.039 The double album here today, the double album The Beatles, which was 219 00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:18.480 basically like four solo albums put together because at this point they were all just 220 00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.279 recording whatever they wanted to record. They occasionally were in the studio together for 221 00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:27.559 that. Uh that. That's an incredible collection of music and probably the most 222 00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:34.680 disparate and wild hodgepodge of Beatles that were on any album that they put out 223 00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:41.000 in their tenure together. And you talk about the Miami Music Festival with said 224 00:20:41.079 --> 00:20:45.240 you got Joni Mitchell and you've got John k and Steppenwolf on the same stage. 225 00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:51.160 It was Crazy and Mac and the Dead Yeah, and that was the 226 00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:55.920 Fleetwood Mac long before Stevie and Lindsay that was the Fleetwood Mac of the Peter 227 00:20:56.079 --> 00:21:02.039 Green and the original Fleetwood right those. Yeah. So I mean, do 228 00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:03.920 you write about the music scene in sixty eight? I guess you'd have to. 229 00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:10.559 You can't not write about the music scene in nineteen sixty eight. So 230 00:21:10.640 --> 00:21:15.000 each chapter, what I've done in this book, Gry Jeff, is I've 231 00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:22.680 listed what was tracking as number one on the country charts, on the pop 232 00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:26.000 charts, and on the R and B charts. See, you know, 233 00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:30.960 as much as a lot of folks were around here listening to, you know, 234 00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:37.799 Jim Scott on WSAI, I spent as much time listening to Lincoln Ware 235 00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:41.759 on WCIM. Yeah, I love the R and B side of it, 236 00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:45.240 big R and B fan. So each month starts out with a listing of 237 00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:52.000 everything that was number one in that timeframe. But the other thing that I 238 00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:59.720 go into is that, you know, we had some remarkable bands here in 239 00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:10.160 Greater Cincinnati Northern Kentucky. So I focused on the New Line, which Judge 240 00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:15.599 Mickey Folger was drummer for over in Campbell County. I focused on the Dingoes, 241 00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:22.000 of which my friend John de Moscow was the bass player. I focused 242 00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:27.319 on the Denims who were in the who has you know, Cincinnati's answered to 243 00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:33.400 the Beatles and the you know, the drummer for the for the Denims was 244 00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:38.960 the was a kid named Steve Blow who later became known as Adrian Blue is 245 00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:45.200 now one of the most influential guitarists in the history of rock from right here 246 00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:51.799 in the Cincinnati area. And I know Mickey Folger and uh and he was 247 00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:56.400 man for a guy who would be known as a family court judge. He 248 00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:02.559 was known as a rock star around or you know his his involvement with wheels 249 00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:07.799 later on and you mentioned the new line. Uh, and he actually is 250 00:23:07.839 --> 00:23:12.039 still out playing today. Were you able to contact any of those people? 251 00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:17.559 Are are they all still around or who's gone? And oh yeah, we 252 00:23:17.599 --> 00:23:22.880 was able to contact all. Had had a nice discussion with with Mickey, 253 00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:27.000 had a great discussion with John to Moscow and uh, you know talking about 254 00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:32.000 the Dingoes. Was able to and this was this is fun, I mean 255 00:23:32.039 --> 00:23:36.960 one of the things that they had. I've had the joy and the pleasure 256 00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:41.440 Gary Jeff of being able to interview some of my heroes over the year years. 257 00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:47.039 And you know in columns that I've written and one of the people that 258 00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:49.640 I was able to get in touch with years ago. On the fiftieth anniversary 259 00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:56.160 of the Eve of Destruction, I had what should have been a five minute 260 00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:02.720 phone interview with Uh, the guy who wrote that song, Uh, and 261 00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:07.880 it ended up turning into like an hour and a half. We just talked, 262 00:24:07.400 --> 00:24:11.720 Yeah, you know, we just you know, Barry Maguire and I 263 00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:15.200 just sat on the phone to talk. And so I sent him a copy 264 00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:21.400 of advanced reader of the of the book Barry's eighty nine. Now it doesn't 265 00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:26.319 get out in public life very much, but sent me a note yesterday and 266 00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:30.279 told me what a wonderful message the book was. Oh, that's great. 267 00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:34.680 It's just a nice thing to get back. Sure, let's Barry. Barry 268 00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:40.480 was part of this national movement, like with Tommy smothers who passed away this 269 00:24:40.640 --> 00:24:45.079 week, that believed they could change the world with music. Barry told me 270 00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:49.960 one time that you know, when when the Eve of Destruction hit number one, 271 00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:52.960 they thought, here we are, we're doing it, We're on our 272 00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:56.960 way. And the next week he was knocked off the charts by hang On 273 00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:04.000 Sloopy. So, you know, hang On Sloopy, It's okay, We're 274 00:25:04.000 --> 00:25:07.759 talking about popular music here, but there's so much more in this book. 275 00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:11.920 Nineteen sixty eight. The author's Rick Robinson. He's on the phone with us 276 00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:17.480 now, and Rick, let's talk a little bit about the local political scene 277 00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:22.359 in nineteen sixty eight and how it was changing in Cincinnati, and if it 278 00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:27.240 was changing, I mean it was changing. The political landscape was changing everywhere 279 00:25:27.319 --> 00:25:33.240 in nineteen sixty eight because of all the different things that were going on, 280 00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:37.359 the Vietnam War, the assassination of Martin Luther King and then Bobby Kennedy. 281 00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:45.960 There was so much unrest. The college campuses were kind of a flame, 282 00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:49.759 and I think that we see a lot of that still today. In fact, 283 00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:55.680 there are a lot of mirrors and parallels between nineteen sixty eight and what 284 00:25:55.720 --> 00:26:00.359 we've seen at least the last four years politically, right, There really are 285 00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:07.160 parallels that you can draw, especially locally, Gary, Jeff. I mean, 286 00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:11.039 one of the things that closed the book with is in December, everybody 287 00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:15.559 starts doing their planning. There's all these articles in the newspaper about, Oh, 288 00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:18.480 we're planning for this, we're planning for that. One of the things 289 00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:26.519 they were planning for in nineteen sixty eight was a new bridge across the across 290 00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:32.799 the Ohio River to improve the safety on the Princeton Bridge. Took a while 291 00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:37.799 working on it, but that'll give you know. One of the things that 292 00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:41.640 happened to this is that a lot of times you look at the issues and 293 00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:47.640 everything that old is new again. You just see this repetition of issues. 294 00:26:47.759 --> 00:26:52.960 When when King and Kennedy are assassinated, you see the call for gun control. 295 00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:56.920 You see all the things that are that happened that before are still going. 296 00:26:57.319 --> 00:27:04.000 I think the one thing that is different in nineteen sixty eight is everything 297 00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:11.680 in nineteen sixty eight is about Vietnam. Everything, And that's really where I 298 00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:17.119 got the inspiration to write the book. Was that, as people would say, 299 00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:19.960 oh, the country's going to hell on a handbasket, my response had 300 00:27:21.000 --> 00:27:27.079 always been, well, at eight nineteen sixty eight, you know what I'll 301 00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:30.920 tell you. Rick decided to go ahead. I decided to prove it to 302 00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:34.880 myself. I started writing newspapers from sixty eight, and you go through month 303 00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:41.680 by month, chapter by chapter in this book of what was occurring, not 304 00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:45.759 just nationally but certainly locally here in Cincinnati in the area in nineteen sixty eight, 305 00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:53.640 and I don't know. It seems like there were times in twenty twenty, 306 00:27:53.799 --> 00:28:00.640 especially after the George Floyd situation in BLM riot not peaceful protests, but 307 00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:07.839 riots, Antifa riots, and how they were being reacted to or not reacted 308 00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:12.920 to by the government. You know, I think twenty twenty gave sixty eight 309 00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:18.000 a run for its money. What are your thoughts there, you know, 310 00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:22.359 I think the big difference, Garry Jeff. One of the things I point 311 00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:29.799 out in the book is that there became in nineteen sixty eight a phenomenon in 312 00:28:29.960 --> 00:28:36.680 neighborhoods that everybody knew what it was about. I certainly remember experience in it. 313 00:28:36.799 --> 00:28:38.400 A couple of years later, when I was a little more more, 314 00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:44.319 I can remember it a little bit better. But that is the government car 315 00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:48.799 pulling up in front of the house. Yeah, you know, the green 316 00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:52.960 dodge pulls up with no white walls, and two soldiers get up and knock 317 00:28:52.079 --> 00:29:00.200 on the door. Nineteen sixty eight was the bloodiest year of Vietnam. You 318 00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:03.960 had ted, you had the May Offensive, you have all these things happening, 319 00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:11.920 and as you get to that, you know, think about that phenomenon 320 00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:15.880 of somebody in you know, you're from Southgate. Somebody in Southgate a car 321 00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:22.160 pulling up at a neighbor's house, and everybody inside that house knows exactly what 322 00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:26.680 it means. Well, the neighbors probably know too, you know well, 323 00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:30.039 and that's just it. The people inside the house that start grieving the moment 324 00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:34.440 they see the car, and the people on each side of them start breathing 325 00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:40.880 a sigh of relief of it's not my kid today. And I think that's 326 00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:45.960 the one thing that really set sixty eight apart from any other time in American 327 00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:51.880 history, because of all the loss of life in Vietnam of American soldiers. 328 00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:57.480 It all revolves everything in nineteen sixty eight when I had a wonderful conversation with 329 00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:04.039 the artist that Rudlow, Tom Gaither, and that was Tommy's reflection on the 330 00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:11.119 whole thing. Was everything in sixty eight, from music to politics, everything 331 00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:17.119 was about Vietnam. All right, give me a highlight from July of nineteen 332 00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:26.759 sixty eight, wowly of nineteen sixty eight. July of sixty eight. There. 333 00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:33.720 I think that's the time when when you look at it politically, everything 334 00:30:33.880 --> 00:30:40.039 starting to gel as you looked about the Republicans and the Democrats, No one's 335 00:30:40.160 --> 00:30:44.599 quite sure who's going to be the nominee of either party, and so you 336 00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:52.400 start having this influx of people that are suddenly starting to focus on is it 337 00:30:52.440 --> 00:30:56.480 going to be Humphrey, Is it going to be you know, is it 338 00:30:56.519 --> 00:31:00.519 going to be Nixon? Or is somebody else going to challenge them? And 339 00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:03.759 the highlight of that month to me as we go through these things is that 340 00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.079 you know who they were whose show they were all trying to get on. 341 00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:18.799 No Bob Brunt, good old Bob. Bob had taken over for Ruth Lyons 342 00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:22.960 on the noon show. And you have to remember at that time they were 343 00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:30.000 number one in a regional network that covered from Indianapolis, you know south. 344 00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:37.079 They were in nine cities breaking number one. And so everybody for Northern Kentuckians, 345 00:31:37.400 --> 00:31:40.160 especially Gary Jeff I always talking about, you know, we always help. 346 00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:44.359 During that time frame, we were the stepchild of local news. Right. 347 00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:48.319 Sure, nobody wanted to report on what was going on in Northern Kentucky, 348 00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.359 but there was one guy we could all listen to in Northern Kentucky because 349 00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:59.160 we knew Bob was one of us, but not only was one of us 350 00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:05.039 Columbus Indianapolis, you know, has all these networks that he's gone through. 351 00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:08.279 They're all watching the show, and everybody that comes to town wants to be 352 00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:14.680 on the Bron show. Yeah. It really is kind of a phenomenon that 353 00:32:14.680 --> 00:32:16.839 that, you know, you don't have regional networks today, you don't have 354 00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:22.559 what's going on, you know that that type of thing that's happening. But 355 00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:27.440 that was one of the things that really kind of stood out in my mind 356 00:32:28.480 --> 00:32:34.799 was that everybody wanted to be on on Bob's show. So we were still, 357 00:32:35.079 --> 00:32:38.880 as far as television goes in Cincinnati, we were still in the Bob 358 00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:45.119 Bron, still in the Ruth Lions phase to a lesser extent, or Ruth 359 00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:49.240 was still a part of this. She had she had retired, Okay, 360 00:32:49.359 --> 00:32:52.200 all right, So it was Bob Bron who was kind of like the standard 361 00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:57.480 bearer for local TV and as you mentioned, the regional networks that were going 362 00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:00.400 on, enter bear for local TV. But Gary Jeffs something happens in sixty 363 00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:09.359 eight that changes life for folks that were my age at the time. W 364 00:33:09.759 --> 00:33:16.200 X i X comes on to the to the to the to the television with 365 00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:22.079 the ANA and the loop antenna and the fuzzy picture and oh my god, 366 00:33:22.119 --> 00:33:29.519 look picture just that little bit so that we can watch Larry Smith and his 367 00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:35.920 Puppets, the Cool Ghoul at night, Nick von Haney, all those shows 368 00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:38.000 come on, which had a great influence on me growing up. I mean 369 00:33:38.039 --> 00:33:42.559 that was, you know, Friday nights, you'd be watching the ghal uh, 370 00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.519 you know, and during the week you'd be watching Snarfy our Dog and 371 00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:51.920 Larry Smith and his puppets. I remember I was living somewhere else at the 372 00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:57.279 time, but at that time, I do remember the first UHF independent station 373 00:33:57.480 --> 00:34:00.200 coming on the air, and it was just a new world. You're right 374 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:04.440 if you could get good reception, but you had to you had to. 375 00:34:04.599 --> 00:34:08.760 You had to position that loop antenna just a certain way sometimes to get a 376 00:34:08.800 --> 00:34:15.400 good signal. And that becomes one of the big differences Gary Cheff between you 377 00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:20.199 know, if you talked about the last four years in nineteen sixty eight, 378 00:34:20.559 --> 00:34:27.440 in nineteen sixty eight, there were three sources of news NBCCBS, ABC, 379 00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:31.119 and they pretty much drove it down the middle, driven a lot, if 380 00:34:31.159 --> 00:34:37.480 pg O'Rourke would always say, driven a lot by advertisement, yep, Because 381 00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:40.800 if you wandered too far to the right or too far to the left. 382 00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:46.199 A guy down the street who sold couches in the furniture store would bust your 383 00:34:46.239 --> 00:34:50.800 chops for it. Well, you know what I think. I think that's 384 00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:57.159 the Long comes. The Long comes one of our news channel cable and the 385 00:34:57.239 --> 00:35:00.920 right goes one way, the left goes the other way. News became entertainment 386 00:35:00.519 --> 00:35:05.360 by which you have an opinion going into and you want to find a news 387 00:35:05.400 --> 00:35:08.800 channel that validates your opinion. It was the explosion of social media. The 388 00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:14.760 explosion of social media. Absolutely, social media pleads an interesting role, in 389 00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:22.519 particular with regards I think to civil rights and things that are happening that the 390 00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:28.599 one of the surprises from this book was talking to several prominent African Americans in 391 00:35:28.639 --> 00:35:32.440 northern Kentucky and talking about how there may be less voices now, but the 392 00:35:32.519 --> 00:35:37.400 voices off sometimes are louder. Nineteen sixty eight the book Rick Robinson, the 393 00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:44.880 author from the nineteen sixty eight White Album or the Beatles. We close out, 394 00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:49.639 Rick, Thank you very much, Thanks Jared, Jeff good luck with 395 00:35:49.679 --> 00:35:52.599 the book. Yeah, you can pick it up a free order on Amazon 396 00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:58.800 and seemed to be in bookstore. Fantastic, We'll look for it. Crank 397 00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:15.039 this upally we take it to the top of the hour News at ten Love. 398 00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:29.880 I've been none on New Year's Day or the day after, so why 399 00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:32.519 not some night taps in the middle of the day at the end of the 400 00:36:32.519 --> 00:36:37.039 week, Gary Jeff Walker with you again and for Scott Sloan on seven hundred 401 00:36:37.119 --> 00:36:44.639 WLW. Our next guest in this half hour is a guy I've spoken to 402 00:36:44.760 --> 00:36:47.400 on numerous occasions, and of course leading up to the vote on Issue one 403 00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:53.639 in Ohio, we had many conversations because he's on the other side of how 404 00:36:53.719 --> 00:37:00.320 that turned out with the voters. He is Reverend James hard He's the CEO 405 00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:07.800 of a group called Compass Care. Compass Care has a network around the country 406 00:37:07.800 --> 00:37:17.639 ever expanding of pregnancy care centers for people who are you know, having questions, 407 00:37:17.679 --> 00:37:23.679 having issues, they're in crisis, and they help these people women, 408 00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:30.559 by the way, because men cannot have babies, they help these women find 409 00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:40.039 solutions that don't include murdering their unborn child inside the womb. And Reverend Harden 410 00:37:40.119 --> 00:37:46.800 also is very adamant about, you know, when we talk about the transgender 411 00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:52.320 issues. By the way, in Ohio, Governor Dwine deciding whether or not 412 00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:59.079 he will sign the bill that restricts transgender boys or men playing in women's sports 413 00:37:59.239 --> 00:38:06.679 girls' sports in high school, and also the gender affirming care that some people, 414 00:38:06.760 --> 00:38:10.320 which is to me just nuts. If somebody has a mental issue, 415 00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:17.280 you don't help solve that issue by assuring them that they're not crazy or they 416 00:38:17.320 --> 00:38:22.239 don't have some mental issues in thinking that they're not supposed to be in the 417 00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:25.840 body that they're in, so they're going to change everything. Well, we 418 00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:30.840 may get into that, but also I wanted to talk about the anti life 419 00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:37.679 movements that are in otherwise pro life states. And no matter how issue one 420 00:38:37.760 --> 00:38:39.960 turned out in Ohio, I believe Ohio, at least by their elected officials 421 00:38:39.960 --> 00:38:45.239 and the Supreme Court and the leadership that was elected by the public, like 422 00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:52.280 Governor DeWine knew that issue won went too far and it guaranteed abortion right up 423 00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:57.880 to the time of birth in this state, which is horrendous to even think 424 00:38:57.920 --> 00:39:02.400 about. So once again, Reverend Jim Harden from Compass Care. He's the 425 00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:07.440 CEO and he is our guest. Reverend Harden, how are you. It's 426 00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:10.000 great to be back with you. Thanks for having me. Yeah, thanks 427 00:39:10.079 --> 00:39:15.480 for coming on today. So I wanted to talk about particularly the anti life 428 00:39:15.519 --> 00:39:22.559 movement mostly from outside states since it's been given back, since it's been given 429 00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:28.239 back to the states by the Dobbs decision in the United States Supreme Court, 430 00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:36.000 and the huge anti life push in states that are otherwise pro life, and 431 00:39:36.320 --> 00:39:39.920 there's an anti life push from outside the state of the Commonwealth of Kentucky where 432 00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:45.599 I live, that of course, has legislation on the books that does restrict 433 00:39:45.639 --> 00:39:52.719 abortions, and they seem like perfectly acceptable restrictions. But then I'm not pregnant, 434 00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:57.760 So I mean, I wanted to hear you talk about the concerted effort 435 00:39:57.840 --> 00:40:01.880 and the money that's going in from the abortion industry into trying turn these states 436 00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:07.920 around. Yeah, well, you're you're you're right. This is an anti 437 00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:14.719 life push. Abortion. You know, abortion represents the ending, specifically the 438 00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:21.679 ending of not just a pregnancy, but a healthy, fully human life. 439 00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:24.159 It's it's these I mean, if you want to be technical about it, 440 00:40:24.159 --> 00:40:31.400 it's the separation of of a mother, a healthy, a healthy mother from 441 00:40:31.440 --> 00:40:37.000 her healthy child in utero for the purpose of destroying a child. That's what 442 00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:43.559 abortion is, and the abortion the kind of anti life movement the abortion industry 443 00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:49.840 wants to redefine abortion by conflating it with miscarriage treatment. I'm not kidding you. 444 00:40:50.480 --> 00:40:53.000 They have chemical abortion. One of the chemical abortion drugs in their chemical 445 00:40:53.039 --> 00:40:59.480 abortion regiments called mister Prostell, and people like Senator Elizabeth Warren want to want 446 00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:05.480 them to change the label on this misterprostle drug, which is specifically designed as 447 00:41:05.519 --> 00:41:10.280 an anti ulcer medication. They want to change the label to be to read 448 00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:15.599 miscarriage treatment. You know, they they they want they want to tell them. 449 00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:20.000 They've been telling the public that you know, if if you know, 450 00:41:20.039 --> 00:41:23.199 these states restrict abortion, then women are going to die in the operating table 451 00:41:23.519 --> 00:41:27.679 for you know, when they're going through an emergency miscarriage because the doctors aren't 452 00:41:27.679 --> 00:41:30.320 going to are going to be barred from from serving them. Totally untrue, 453 00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:35.119 totally lie. It's one of the lies that was propagated in Ohio ahead of 454 00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:39.000 the Proposition one vote, remember or yeah it was? It was. And 455 00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:44.440 by the way, where does the money come from to promote these lies in 456 00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:47.719 the media, Because they spent fifty eight million dollars doing it. The money 457 00:41:47.719 --> 00:41:51.639 did not most of the money, the line's share of the money came from 458 00:41:51.679 --> 00:41:55.639 places like New York. Uh, George Soros's uh, you know, fun 459 00:41:55.719 --> 00:42:00.960 it's dark money. And this is all basically document comes from Planned Parenthood, 460 00:42:01.039 --> 00:42:05.880 also based in New York, So you're getting New York is the abortion capital 461 00:42:06.079 --> 00:42:08.400 of the world, obviously the abortion capital of the United States. All the 462 00:42:08.400 --> 00:42:12.599 policy determinations come out of New York State. They're more abortions in New York 463 00:42:12.639 --> 00:42:16.400 State per capital than any other state and union. They're promoting abortion. They're 464 00:42:16.599 --> 00:42:22.559 they're building the chemical abortion infrastructure to send dangerous chemical abortion drugs in the mail 465 00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:25.159 to pro life states, which is illegal, by the way, according to 466 00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:30.679 the Comstock Act. But they don't care. This is a concerted effort to 467 00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:38.440 bring big abortion, billion dollar abortion business money into pro life states to buy 468 00:42:38.639 --> 00:42:44.639 for their industry in that state. And they don't care what they have to 469 00:42:44.679 --> 00:42:49.679 do. If they're willing to kill a child lying to the public, there's 470 00:42:49.719 --> 00:42:52.599 no big deal to them. And that's what they're doing, or that's a 471 00:42:52.639 --> 00:42:55.360 good point. If you're willing to commit murder, who's been lying? Is 472 00:42:55.480 --> 00:43:00.559 nothing on the Liz No exactly. And that's what and that's what they're doing. 473 00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:04.440 That's that's what they're that's how they're getting the vote and there, and 474 00:43:04.599 --> 00:43:07.199 they're getting the vote by saying, hey, if if these pro life uh 475 00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:13.320 you know politicians have their way, then uh, women's health is at risk. 476 00:43:13.679 --> 00:43:15.280 Women are going to die. And of course nobody wants women to die, 477 00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:17.679 so they're gonna vote. They're going to vote their way. And and 478 00:43:17.719 --> 00:43:22.159 the pro life states have to they don't have dark money coming from outside their 479 00:43:22.159 --> 00:43:25.760 states. They all they have is themselves, all all the all the all 480 00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:30.559 the pro life people had in pro life Ohio, by the way, was 481 00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:32.679 their own money. They raised to it ten million bucks of their own money 482 00:43:32.760 --> 00:43:37.119 to to fight this thing. It was at least five to one outspend, 483 00:43:37.159 --> 00:43:43.360 if not more. Yeah yeah, yeah right, so you know, they 484 00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:45.679 just couldn't compete with the money. And uh and and and the and the 485 00:43:45.679 --> 00:43:51.840 lives got propagated. But nevertheless, we've we've we've got to help people understand, 486 00:43:52.559 --> 00:43:57.159 uh that what's what they're what the abortion industry is going for is legalized 487 00:43:57.199 --> 00:44:00.639 abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy. And that's exactly what they're 488 00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:04.599 not communicating. They don't want people to know what they want. They don't 489 00:44:04.599 --> 00:44:08.320 want people because it's very unpopular. Most people from recent gallup Pole showed that 490 00:44:08.360 --> 00:44:14.239 most people in the United States want almost all abortions restricted except in the cases 491 00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:19.440 of the mother's health and rape. Okay, well, if you add up 492 00:44:19.599 --> 00:44:22.360 the you know, the you know, abortions because of a mother's health and 493 00:44:22.760 --> 00:44:27.320 abortions because of rape or incests, right, you get less than one percent, 494 00:44:27.480 --> 00:44:30.119 less than one percent of the total abortions in America. And that was 495 00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:34.880 a big that was a big selling point for the pro issue one side, 496 00:44:34.960 --> 00:44:39.159 the anti live side, was that it doesn't include exceptions for rape or incest, 497 00:44:39.280 --> 00:44:45.800 and it's such an infinitesimal percentage. As you mentioned, they're selling all 498 00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:51.760 abortion on the anomaly. They're selling abortions for all nine months of pregnancy just 499 00:44:51.760 --> 00:44:58.440 because of these of these anomalous situations. And you know, it's important for 500 00:44:58.440 --> 00:45:06.400 people to recognize that the majority of Americans, including Democrats, want most abortions 501 00:45:06.440 --> 00:45:10.440 restricted. They want so the majority of Americans want ninety nine percent of abortions 502 00:45:10.440 --> 00:45:16.760 out later that's the current situation in America. And so's if that's the reality. 503 00:45:17.000 --> 00:45:20.639 And you've got a pro life state a year ago which elected a very 504 00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:23.599 pro lefe governor in Ohio, you know, shifting and making a constitutional amendment 505 00:45:23.679 --> 00:45:28.840 legalizing abortions for all nine months and prenancy. It doesn't add up unless they 506 00:45:28.840 --> 00:45:32.119 were dukes. Yeah, and they were, oh sure. And in the 507 00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:37.280 legalies and the way these bills are written and the way they are promoted and 508 00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:40.960 paid for sponsored by, as you mentioned, the abortion industry, and it 509 00:45:42.000 --> 00:45:45.519 is an abortion industry. It's not about medical care. It's not about reproductive 510 00:45:45.639 --> 00:45:51.119 care. That's how they frame it because they've gotten away from they have stepped 511 00:45:51.159 --> 00:45:54.679 away from the word abortion as much as possible, haven't they They have. 512 00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:59.360 Yeah, they like to talk about women's repructive healthcare, access to healthcare, 513 00:46:00.559 --> 00:46:04.000 you know, equality and healthcare, women's rights, these kinds of things, 514 00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:07.800 when really it's about abortion. You know. I was. I wrote a 515 00:46:07.800 --> 00:46:09.519 news Max art of a Newsmax column, and one of my columns, I 516 00:46:09.519 --> 00:46:14.760 was dealing with the Texas case of this poor woman whose baby was diagnosed with 517 00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:20.079 try so eighteen. You remember this weeks ago, and so they were all 518 00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:22.760 up in arms because this woman couldn't get an abortion, and they were saying, 519 00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:24.679 well, her health is going to be at risk. Well, her 520 00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:29.960 health wasn't at risk carrying a try so many eighteen babies, a fetal anomaly, 521 00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:34.320 by the way, does not put the pregnant mother's health at risk anymore 522 00:46:34.320 --> 00:46:38.679 than any other normal pregnancy would. The baby's condition, the baby could could 523 00:46:38.800 --> 00:46:42.360 can make it all the way through the pregnancy, and maybe the baby will 524 00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:45.960 likely die if in fact he or she did have try some only eighteen, 525 00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:49.960 will likely die within the first few weeks or months after birth. But that 526 00:46:49.960 --> 00:46:52.960 doesn't mean that we should kill the baby. That doesn't mean the baby's life 527 00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:55.599 is less less valuable or less worth living. We don't know how much time 528 00:46:55.639 --> 00:46:59.840 we have with any child. But the fact of the matter is they were 529 00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:06.440 The abortion industry was using this poor woman's situation as a means to promote abortion 530 00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:09.360 with respect to the life of the mother. But how many children get diagnosed 531 00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:13.519 to try some eighteen, and how many mothers actually want to want to end 532 00:47:13.559 --> 00:47:15.719 the life of their babies, you know, that far into pregnancy. So 533 00:47:15.760 --> 00:47:20.840 she left the state apparently to get her abortion. We don't know exactly what 534 00:47:20.880 --> 00:47:23.599 happened, but I was encouraging her not to because my wife and I had 535 00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:27.679 a child that was diagnosed to tries from eighteen twenty years ago, and the 536 00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:30.559 diagnosis, of course, well I don't know if the diagnosis was false, 537 00:47:30.719 --> 00:47:32.239 or whether God healed him or or what. But he's now twenty years old, 538 00:47:32.239 --> 00:47:37.119 I'm about to get married, so I mean, we don't know all 539 00:47:37.280 --> 00:47:43.320 all that goes on, but the medical community should has never considered an ethical 540 00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:49.719 medical community has never considered abortion to be medical care. It's always actually traditionally 541 00:47:49.760 --> 00:47:54.440 considered abortion to be quackery because the purpose of medicine is to heal and to 542 00:47:54.559 --> 00:47:59.800 maintain the health of the patient. And when a doctor sees a pregnant woman, 543 00:47:59.840 --> 00:48:04.079 he treats two patients, the mother and the baby. That's the way 544 00:48:04.119 --> 00:48:07.639 it's always been and abortion. And they're saying, well, you know, 545 00:48:07.719 --> 00:48:09.920 like for exemple, this Texas woman down Dallas, well, you know, 546 00:48:09.960 --> 00:48:14.400 she needs to have this abortion to protect her future ability to have children. 547 00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:19.239 Well, in reality, abortion actually harms her future ability to have children, 548 00:48:19.360 --> 00:48:22.880 and it harms her future health, not just reproductive health. It's been proven 549 00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:28.480 the world over with medical journal articles, period you medical journal articles, and 550 00:48:28.519 --> 00:48:35.719 that abortion increases a woman's risk of breast cancer by forty four percent. It 551 00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:39.280 increases the women's future And here's the thing. Abortion increases a woman's future risk 552 00:48:39.440 --> 00:48:45.239 of having pre term deliveries. By fifty two percent. And there's a dose 553 00:48:45.280 --> 00:48:49.239 effect means the more abortions you have, the higher your risk goes. So 554 00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:51.920 if she wants to, if she's concerned about having another child and carry another 555 00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:55.000 child, the term, she really should not have an abortion. Yeah, 556 00:48:55.840 --> 00:49:01.239 I did not know that. That's interesting information that people people also don't get 557 00:49:01.639 --> 00:49:06.800 when they're having this discussion. Reverend Harden, I wanted to ask you something 558 00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:09.960 I said at the top, Uh, and got a caller who's on the 559 00:49:09.960 --> 00:49:13.920 line waiting, hop and mad hopefully we'll be able to get him on. 560 00:49:14.000 --> 00:49:20.760 But I said something about gender dysphoria being a mental illness. It is a 561 00:49:21.199 --> 00:49:32.280 documented mental illness, is it not. Psychiatric and psychological journals document gender dysphoria, 562 00:49:32.320 --> 00:49:36.800 in other words, thinking that you should be in another body. This 563 00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:43.000 this is a diagnosed, a diagnosable mental illness, Is it not? Yeah, 564 00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:45.960 it is. And the politics of it, because it's become such a 565 00:49:46.159 --> 00:49:52.880 such a political issue in the psychiatric industry, is you know, very secular 566 00:49:52.920 --> 00:50:00.440 and easily easily manipulated. They're looking to change those definitions in their psychiatric uh 567 00:50:00.760 --> 00:50:02.719 you know, book of analyzes. So I mean, we'll we'll we'll see 568 00:50:02.719 --> 00:50:06.320 what happens. But I think they're going to be changing a lot of things. 569 00:50:06.360 --> 00:50:08.679 And they're saying, like, you know, uh, pedophilia. I 570 00:50:08.679 --> 00:50:12.280 think they're going to say, well, you know, I don't know they 571 00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:14.280 call it now. They call it something, you know, some kind of 572 00:50:14.280 --> 00:50:16.920 fancy name like uh, you know, youth attraction or something like that, 573 00:50:17.119 --> 00:50:22.719 uh uh minor attracted adults or something something insane. But that is it's a 574 00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:24.960 it's a crime, and it's wrong, and it should always be a crime, 575 00:50:25.000 --> 00:50:28.920 and it should and people should be convicted of it and sent to jail. 576 00:50:29.239 --> 00:50:32.800 And I and I, you know, there's this movement two, you 577 00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:37.920 know, to to to begin the process of decriminalizing some of these you know, 578 00:50:37.039 --> 00:50:43.559 dysphoric types of conditions and behaviors that harm other people. And and and 579 00:50:43.599 --> 00:50:49.679 there the first step in the process of decriminalizing these these these people, uh 580 00:50:49.679 --> 00:50:52.639 and these actions is by going to the psych psychiatric community and saying, oh, 581 00:50:52.679 --> 00:50:58.800 it's it's it's no longer dysphoria, it's no longer a mental uh aberration, 582 00:50:58.880 --> 00:51:01.960 it's no longer a condition that we're going to diagnose. It's perfectly fine. 583 00:51:02.519 --> 00:51:08.960 That's that's the first step in decriminalizing and in normalizing this kind of of 584 00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:15.960 of you know, behavior, and then we should be very very concerned about 585 00:51:15.000 --> 00:51:20.760 about this because what it's going to do is it's going to unleash further on 586 00:51:20.920 --> 00:51:25.760 leash it's always been, it's already been unleased, but further unleash chaos upon 587 00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:31.159 our nation by by by destroying people's ability to have healthy relationships, and by 588 00:51:31.199 --> 00:51:39.440 allowing for the systemic abuse of children by by these aggressive pedophiles, you know, 589 00:51:39.519 --> 00:51:45.079 in public schools and libraries and places like that. So we're we're in 590 00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:49.639 a very difficult spot in America. The hormone uh, the hormone blockers and 591 00:51:49.719 --> 00:51:53.239 all of that that the gender affirming surgery is so called, all of that 592 00:51:53.400 --> 00:51:58.639 is child abuse, especially if you're talking about a seven, eight, nine, 593 00:51:58.719 --> 00:52:02.920 ten year old or or someone who they've delayed puberty, you know, 594 00:52:04.079 --> 00:52:07.960 against against what naturally happens, they've delayed puberty, and you've got a twelve 595 00:52:08.039 --> 00:52:15.119 thirteen year old. Kids don't really have any I mean, sure, there 596 00:52:15.119 --> 00:52:22.280 are obvious focuses that most children have, but lots of kids may act more 597 00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:28.079 effeminate if they're actually boys, or may act more tom boyish, as the 598 00:52:28.920 --> 00:52:35.280 expression with girls that happens naturally because the kids are still discovering who they are, 599 00:52:35.360 --> 00:52:39.079 and they really don't know who they are until they get into adulthood at 600 00:52:39.159 --> 00:52:45.159 least. Don't doubt, without a jubt oh, without a doubt. Look 601 00:52:45.320 --> 00:52:50.320 this, you know, after World War Two, there was a there's something 602 00:52:50.360 --> 00:52:57.119 called Nuremberg Trials that were against the Nazi doctors, because Nazi doctors were conscripted 603 00:52:57.159 --> 00:53:04.480 by Nazi Germany to engage in essentially human experimentation uh in uh of people in 604 00:53:04.559 --> 00:53:07.960 the concentration class the camps. And what they found was after these trials, 605 00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:10.400 they said, look, we need to have a code, a an ethical 606 00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:15.039 code to make sure that these crimes against humanity with human experimentation never happen again 607 00:53:15.440 --> 00:53:20.039 were the world over, and so they created the Nuremberg Code. Now, 608 00:53:20.079 --> 00:53:23.840 the Nuremberg Code basically has Provision three. Provision three basically says you, you 609 00:53:23.880 --> 00:53:28.519 know, you've got to go through animal subjects testing to make sure it's safe 610 00:53:29.599 --> 00:53:34.679 and there's no no, no adverse outcomes for human beings and whatever it is. 611 00:53:35.000 --> 00:53:39.159 Well, abortion and hormone therapy in particular violate the third provision of the 612 00:53:39.239 --> 00:53:44.679 Nurmberg Code. Nobody's talking about that this is a crime against humanity, This 613 00:53:44.719 --> 00:53:50.440 is human experimentation that we are we are intentionally attacking not just anybody, not 614 00:53:50.519 --> 00:53:57.840 voluntarily. We're we're attacking miners, miners and and and and engaging in hormone 615 00:53:57.880 --> 00:54:02.159 experimentation on them. It is awful, it's learndous, and it's it's criminal. 616 00:54:02.400 --> 00:54:06.480 It's political pedophilia, and it is criminal. I agree with you, 617 00:54:06.599 --> 00:54:09.159 Reverend James Harden from Compace Care. Thank you so much for your time today. 618 00:54:09.519 --> 00:54:15.119 I covered a lot of ground and Adam's really upset, so we're going 619 00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:17.840 to take a break for news and try and calm him down. And he's 620 00:54:17.840 --> 00:54:22.840 not upset with you, he's upset with me. Seven hundred WLW. I've 621 00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:44.039 been telling you about Ron's rooster on Rapel once again partly because of the media 622 00:54:44.239 --> 00:54:51.039 and the current social situation. The police dream is a nightmare. How anybody 623 00:54:51.159 --> 00:54:54.920 would I mean, volunteer to do this as a job. I have absolutely 624 00:54:55.000 --> 00:55:00.519 no idea, especially in twenty twenty three and all of the things that the 625 00:55:00.599 --> 00:55:05.679 police are asked to do and the things that they're not required or permitted to 626 00:55:05.719 --> 00:55:10.119 do in the performance of their job, to talk about that. Cincinnati Fraternal 627 00:55:10.199 --> 00:55:17.440 Order of Police President and our guest. I love this guy from Frontline Advisors 628 00:55:17.519 --> 00:55:22.920 President as well, mister Dan Hills, Dan, how are you this morning? 629 00:55:23.079 --> 00:55:25.800 Gary? Jeff, I got a correct I am no longer the President 630 00:55:25.920 --> 00:55:30.519 of Eternal Order Police. I've finished out my term ten days ago. I 631 00:55:30.559 --> 00:55:37.199 thought you were I thought you were President for life. No, but you 632 00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:40.920 nailed my other title on the president Frontline Advisors. I work with some attorneys 633 00:55:40.920 --> 00:55:45.599 and I'm kind of the pr arm. We've got one medium sized department already. 634 00:55:46.079 --> 00:55:51.360 We're hoping to get more, and it's for cases like this. I 635 00:55:51.880 --> 00:55:58.119 unfortunately we don't represent this agency's officers because you're talking about the Oxford. The 636 00:55:58.159 --> 00:56:04.719 Oxford incident where the LASE officer was caught on video punching a suspect on the 637 00:56:04.760 --> 00:56:07.880 ground who had already been thrown out of a bar. He was underage, 638 00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:14.280 he was intoxicated, He had been asked to leave. He not politely refused, 639 00:56:14.320 --> 00:56:20.159 He refused, and then when he got outside, the police show up 640 00:56:20.199 --> 00:56:24.719 because they've been called this guy refuses to leave our establishment. He is intoxicated, 641 00:56:24.760 --> 00:56:30.599 he's underage, help us get him out of here and enact the arrest. 642 00:56:30.360 --> 00:56:34.760 And then we all saw the video. Of course, we didn't see 643 00:56:34.800 --> 00:56:40.239 anything that led up to the suspect, not the victim, the suspect being 644 00:56:40.360 --> 00:56:45.280 punched. You didn't see anything leading up to that. And at first and 645 00:56:45.360 --> 00:56:51.679 foremost, as you mentioned, where is this officer's union counselor representatives to speak 646 00:56:51.719 --> 00:56:55.480 for him since he's the one being raked over Nicholes. That's the thing I 647 00:56:55.519 --> 00:57:00.199 don't see. So even though this is normally part of the service that would 648 00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:04.800 be paid for, you know, I can't help myself. I have to 649 00:57:04.840 --> 00:57:07.760 speak out here, especially after the hit piece by Channel twelve. I mean, 650 00:57:09.639 --> 00:57:15.360 normally I had good working relationship with the media, including the reporter here, 651 00:57:15.440 --> 00:57:20.079 David Winter, but this story is horrible. I mean, he starts 652 00:57:20.119 --> 00:57:23.360 out and everybody, why do they always have to start out and say the 653 00:57:23.400 --> 00:57:28.400 officer who was this color? And the suspect who was this color? What 654 00:57:28.719 --> 00:57:35.039 is absolutely ridiculous. It is ridiculous. When when is society going to get 655 00:57:35.079 --> 00:57:38.119 sick of the media hitting us against each other? What is the point of 656 00:57:38.199 --> 00:57:43.280 that? And then come on Oxford, you know, I know you have 657 00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:47.639 a liberal college up there, but just this mayor, you got Mayor Snavely, 658 00:57:47.920 --> 00:57:53.079 who says his name says it all. Mayor Snavely. Mayor Bill Snavely, 659 00:57:53.519 --> 00:57:58.039 when asked about this thoughts on the video, he said, the officer, 660 00:57:58.159 --> 00:58:00.880 we deserve to write to you the opportunity defend himself. But but you 661 00:58:00.880 --> 00:58:05.159 know that that's the biggest word in English language. At this point, I'd 662 00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:07.559 have to say it was something I have never hoped to see an Oxford. 663 00:58:07.920 --> 00:58:13.760 Come on, guys, it's a college town full of bars. It's full 664 00:58:13.800 --> 00:58:16.360 of bouncers in bars, and sometimes the bouncers need a little help from the 665 00:58:16.360 --> 00:58:21.159 policy. Why does it, Dan, Why does it make a difference if 666 00:58:21.199 --> 00:58:25.480 the officer had been black, had been at black skin, and the student 667 00:58:25.480 --> 00:58:31.519 had had white skin. I bet this happens a lot on in college towns 668 00:58:32.199 --> 00:58:39.320 like Oxford, Ohio around the country. I bet there are drunken drunken disturbances 669 00:58:39.400 --> 00:58:44.000 all the other times that are deal dealt with, you know, eventually dealt 670 00:58:44.000 --> 00:58:49.679 with by the police, and especially if the suspect not the victim, the 671 00:58:49.760 --> 00:58:55.440 suspect is being violent and violently objecting or resisting arrest. This kind of stuff 672 00:58:55.519 --> 00:59:00.199 happens all the time. And if this is a white dude, we won't 673 00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:01.639 be hearing about it. That's what I'm saying, this is a This is 674 00:59:01.679 --> 00:59:07.239 a hit piece by Winner trying to trying to get clicks on his story. 675 00:59:07.280 --> 00:59:09.440 I hate that I have to click on it just to cover the media. 676 00:59:09.519 --> 00:59:14.559 Somebody's got to cover the media. So there you need an alternative media to 677 00:59:14.599 --> 00:59:17.000 cover the media. And this thing is there and so so not only does 678 00:59:17.000 --> 00:59:22.440 he get that quotes from Snavely, which says, but he's ready determined that 679 00:59:22.480 --> 00:59:25.039 it's terrible and it's racial and all that other stuff. Then he's to go 680 00:59:25.239 --> 00:59:30.639 and he's got to show the video to civil rights Tyranny cham Sleen of Marshall, 681 00:59:31.280 --> 00:59:36.679 Foreman and Shlean. And of course he says the most city acting I 682 00:59:36.800 --> 00:59:38.800 got ever heard. He said, to continuum of force policy, a close 683 00:59:38.840 --> 00:59:45.440 fess punch is extremely high just under the use of lethal force. Are you 684 00:59:45.599 --> 00:59:49.599 looking at dude? Come on, we use close to this strikes routinely. 685 00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:54.440 It's pain compliance and it's not deadly forced or close to deadly force. You 686 00:59:54.480 --> 00:59:58.639 know where where did where did he dig this guy up? So if he's 687 00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:02.599 going to dig up Sam Schlim of Marshall, Foreman and Schlean, why why 688 01:00:02.599 --> 01:00:07.079 doesn't he called Dan Hills the frontline of advisors to say, wait a second, 689 01:00:07.440 --> 01:00:10.719 the close fist punch, the closest strike, let's use the terminology that 690 01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:15.960 we have to use is very appropriate in pain compliance. This guy has been 691 01:00:15.159 --> 01:00:20.599 fighting, he's a football player, he's a good sized fella. He's intoxicated. 692 01:00:20.599 --> 01:00:25.079 These underage intoxicated from what the reports are saying. And and at some 693 01:00:25.159 --> 01:00:29.480 point we got to get him cuffed or or really could get bad. So 694 01:00:29.920 --> 01:00:35.360 using to close this strike, uh, in a case like that is something 695 01:00:35.400 --> 01:00:38.920 that's trained in the police departments all across the country. But look, David 696 01:00:39.079 --> 01:00:44.679 Winner of Channel twelve wants to start a racial stir so he can report on 697 01:00:44.719 --> 01:00:47.239 it. And and and that's I hate to see that in our media. 698 01:00:47.239 --> 01:00:52.079 I don't think any other the the other channels that they said the same thing 699 01:00:52.119 --> 01:00:54.360 about the race of the police officer and the race of those us back. 700 01:00:54.519 --> 01:00:59.400 You know, they always set it up that way. But Channel twelve is 701 01:00:59.400 --> 01:01:02.880 the one that that won the step further here bye bye by going out and 702 01:01:02.920 --> 01:01:09.199 finding San Schlean of Marshall, Horman and Schlean and getting his his ridiculous take 703 01:01:09.440 --> 01:01:15.199 on this. What is a very routine thing that happened, Yeah, it 704 01:01:15.239 --> 01:01:19.639 was. It was very one I saw the college kids I saw I saw 705 01:01:19.679 --> 01:01:22.800 the report, and I agree with it was very one sided and it was 706 01:01:23.039 --> 01:01:29.679 racially slanted on purpose. I believe as you as you stated here, Why 707 01:01:29.880 --> 01:01:35.280 was there little said about the suspects culpability in this and what the suspects? 708 01:01:35.320 --> 01:01:38.159 You didn't never talk about the suspects culpability? Do we we want to make 709 01:01:38.239 --> 01:01:42.800 him into an innocent something to somebody or another? Now I can. I 710 01:01:42.840 --> 01:01:45.559 can give whatever council they have as a hint, maybe you want to go 711 01:01:45.719 --> 01:01:52.360 check the records in Cuyahoga County and see see if there's anybody under the same 712 01:01:52.440 --> 01:01:58.039 name of this this suspect and see if he has any arrest or indictments or 713 01:01:58.039 --> 01:02:00.880 whatever. It's all part of all part of what I would like to see 714 01:02:00.239 --> 01:02:04.440 happen more. And that's why you know, doing what I'm doing with frontline 715 01:02:04.480 --> 01:02:07.360 advisors and doing it with these attorneys who aren't afraid to stand up for cops, 716 01:02:07.400 --> 01:02:12.519 even when the meeting and especially especially now, this is the time when 717 01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:17.239 you need front line advisors because when everybody is piling on and everybody's getting scared, 718 01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:21.760 and everybody's hiding in their basement because they made it into something racial, 719 01:02:22.000 --> 01:02:24.480 something that more most likely, I'll give it a ninety nine point nine percent 720 01:02:24.559 --> 01:02:29.039 chance, has nothing to do with race. Nothing. It has. It 721 01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:31.199 has a lot to do. It has a lot to do with the intake 722 01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:37.599 the intoxication of a miner in a even though a college student is a football 723 01:02:37.599 --> 01:02:40.760 player, whatever, but he's still under a minor, a really big miner. 724 01:02:42.320 --> 01:02:47.079 Uh. The intoxication of said minor in a public place and him not 725 01:02:47.199 --> 01:02:52.480 being welcomed there by the establishment itself, and then you know, the whole 726 01:02:53.360 --> 01:02:58.880 disturbing the peace and and all the other crimes that this guy was committing before 727 01:02:58.920 --> 01:03:06.280 the police there that this is not talked about as germane to the topic ever 728 01:03:06.360 --> 01:03:12.920 since we and nobody, nobody, and you remember this in twenty twenty, 729 01:03:13.039 --> 01:03:17.800 nobody talked about the fact that George Floyd was a career criminal and drug abuser 730 01:03:17.960 --> 01:03:22.039 who had been picked up, detained, and arrested by the police numerous times. 731 01:03:22.400 --> 01:03:28.039 Nobody talked about and it was it was buried on purpose, It was 732 01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:30.960 buried on purpose, It was buried on purpose, that he had four times 733 01:03:31.000 --> 01:03:36.960 the amount of fentanyl that could cause a lethal DEAs. And my suggestion is 734 01:03:37.039 --> 01:03:40.159 George Floyd was about to die, whether Derek Chauvin was on his neck or 735 01:03:40.239 --> 01:03:45.599 not, because he had enough fentanyl in his system to cease his ability to 736 01:03:45.760 --> 01:03:49.119 breathe. Dad, But that was never In fact, that was hidden from 737 01:03:49.119 --> 01:03:52.159 the public while the riots are going on and the BLM marches are going on 738 01:03:52.199 --> 01:03:57.800 through the streets and people are setting fire to buildings in police stations and taking 739 01:03:57.840 --> 01:04:03.639 over courthouses, that the George Floyd's culpability in his own death was never mentioned 740 01:04:03.679 --> 01:04:06.480 once. It was all about race. Yeah, no, not at all. 741 01:04:06.559 --> 01:04:13.199 And you know, the whole situation was was created by Floyd. As 742 01:04:13.239 --> 01:04:16.159 you said. Now, I came out and I didn't like what the techniques 743 01:04:16.199 --> 01:04:19.119 that they used, even if it was trained. There was a there was 744 01:04:19.159 --> 01:04:24.119 a time far before that that I would have liked to see Chauven, uh, 745 01:04:24.639 --> 01:04:27.440 you know, do something different than continue to stay in that position. 746 01:04:27.719 --> 01:04:30.679 And I said that did that cause Floyd's death? I'm going to probably lean 747 01:04:30.800 --> 01:04:34.920 with you and probably not. I think the corner said so, and they 748 01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:40.599 ignored his report. Of course, they weren't interested in that. No, 749 01:04:40.760 --> 01:04:46.400 So so again it's it's the police and you started your you started your segment 750 01:04:46.440 --> 01:04:50.960 with it in twenty twenty three. How do people do this job so knowing 751 01:04:51.159 --> 01:04:57.079 that a routine thing like this could all sudden be turned into some big racial 752 01:04:57.199 --> 01:05:01.679 event. And then you know the absolutely nimpiness of our elected officials. And 753 01:05:01.719 --> 01:05:05.679 in this case, the Oxford mayor who I don't even know why, wasted 754 01:05:05.760 --> 01:05:09.639 his time on the sentence that we want to do this fairly, because then 755 01:05:09.719 --> 01:05:12.960 the butt means everything. The butt means you know, well, this is 756 01:05:13.039 --> 01:05:15.239 this is something I hope to never see in Oxford? Are you kidding me 757 01:05:15.280 --> 01:05:19.119 again that that's the one that makes my my my, my octaves go way 758 01:05:19.199 --> 01:05:23.320 up. Well, Holton, never see this in Oxford. The whole place 759 01:05:23.400 --> 01:05:26.719 is full of bars, it's full of young people. Yeah, I bet 760 01:05:26.800 --> 01:05:30.800 you. There is a fight almost nightly when when the kids are in town. 761 01:05:30.960 --> 01:05:33.559 Yeah, and you probably probably you probably get worse than a punch in 762 01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:38.119 the face. And some of these fights too. Uh. And you agree, 763 01:05:38.199 --> 01:05:43.199 Dan Hills is a lifetime in law enforcement. As former member and president 764 01:05:43.239 --> 01:05:48.760 of the FOP and now with the Frontline Advisors, you you obviously say that 765 01:05:48.800 --> 01:05:53.599 the use of force should be reviewed and investigated. I mean, anytime a 766 01:05:53.639 --> 01:05:58.079 police officer has to use force, whether it's deadly, force or force in 767 01:05:58.159 --> 01:06:01.400 general. That yeah, that calls for an investigation, but it's got to 768 01:06:01.440 --> 01:06:09.159 be a balanced investigation. It's got to be done objectively, right objectively, 769 01:06:09.159 --> 01:06:12.880 and we have to hear. We have to hear the perceptions of the officer 770 01:06:12.920 --> 01:06:17.239 and time, you know, the other people that were trying to control where 771 01:06:17.239 --> 01:06:20.679 they worn't out. It was one of these things we wanted getting cuffs sooner 772 01:06:20.760 --> 01:06:24.559 rather or later. What was his target? It looks like he hit the 773 01:06:24.599 --> 01:06:27.039 back of his head, but I don't know. He might have hit the 774 01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:30.000 top of his back or that's what might have been what he's targeting. I 775 01:06:30.039 --> 01:06:32.599 don't know. Nobody knows because nobody's gone about this objectively. All we've done 776 01:06:32.639 --> 01:06:38.280 is seeing a video and said the race of the officer was X, and 777 01:06:38.280 --> 01:06:42.599 the race of the suspect is X. Soo bang it must be it must 778 01:06:42.599 --> 01:06:45.039 be racial. And then, like you know, I don't know who to 779 01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:51.400 be more bothered by the reporter in this case, the mayor or what's his 780 01:06:51.480 --> 01:06:57.239 name again? Slean of something something and shleaning you know, these guys that 781 01:06:57.360 --> 01:07:02.880 make a living just going out there and pitying uh races against one another. 782 01:07:02.920 --> 01:07:09.719 That's just Sam Sleen of Marshall, Foreman and Shlean. He makes he makes 783 01:07:09.760 --> 01:07:14.400 a living of trying to make people feel as though they are oppressed. Look 784 01:07:14.480 --> 01:07:15.719 to say, have nothing to do with that young man's race, that had 785 01:07:15.719 --> 01:07:18.559 to do with his behavior. Let's let's let's do it. Let's do it. 786 01:07:18.639 --> 01:07:21.480 Let's do a callback, just real quickly, Dan, since we're on 787 01:07:21.519 --> 01:07:27.639 the topic. Was Samuel Debos culpable in his own death when he was shot 788 01:07:27.679 --> 01:07:31.360 by that officer? Yes, very much. He was stoned. He was 789 01:07:31.480 --> 01:07:35.039 driving, he was you know, he was asked to get out of the 790 01:07:35.039 --> 01:07:40.079 car. He had a suspended license, he had out of out of date 791 01:07:40.159 --> 01:07:44.639 plates on the automobile. He should have been out of the car. They 792 01:07:44.679 --> 01:07:47.360 could have taken care of things downtown. But instead Samuel de BOE's in his 793 01:07:48.119 --> 01:07:54.400 inebriated or intoxicated state, whatever it was that he was on, he decided 794 01:07:54.440 --> 01:07:58.400 he was just going to drive away from the officer and try and drag the 795 01:07:58.440 --> 01:08:00.800 officer, and he wounded up. He wound up dead. Now the family 796 01:08:00.800 --> 01:08:05.440 got a nice payoff, But really, Samuel to Bose was was culpable in 797 01:08:05.519 --> 01:08:10.639 his own death in another case, and you give it all the way back 798 01:08:10.639 --> 01:08:13.400 to two thousand and one. And it's the same thing with Timothy Thomas, 799 01:08:13.519 --> 01:08:16.720 yep, who ran from the police, repeatedly ran from the police. He 800 01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:23.319 created the situation. And in that case the officer was accused of accidentally discharging 801 01:08:23.319 --> 01:08:26.640 a fire and back in two thousand and one the Timothy Thomas cave Sam the 802 01:08:26.720 --> 01:08:30.920 both he was charged as though he had purposely done it. And quite frankly, 803 01:08:30.399 --> 01:08:33.840 Gary jeffs, I think that's the case where he accidentally fired. But 804 01:08:33.960 --> 01:08:42.720 what created that accident was yes, yeah, it was. That's right. 805 01:08:42.880 --> 01:08:45.800 And so you know, let's we start we started seeking the truth in this 806 01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:51.479 country and not just going and hitting emotions and doing it for clicks for your 807 01:08:51.800 --> 01:08:58.399 for your media or whatever, or doing it doing it to see who you 808 01:08:58.439 --> 01:09:02.239 can sue next, like Sam Schlein of Marshall Foreman and Slean and and and 809 01:09:02.239 --> 01:09:08.159 and again. Our elected officials they have to start stepping up and doing what 810 01:09:08.319 --> 01:09:10.640 is right. And in this case here today, look, we'll go investigate 811 01:09:10.720 --> 01:09:14.520 it. Other than that, leave my town alone, because this is a 812 01:09:14.640 --> 01:09:17.520 routine thing that happens quite often in Oxford. The police have to come and 813 01:09:17.600 --> 01:09:21.720 help out bar staff after fights. We'll take a look and we'll decide whether 814 01:09:21.840 --> 01:09:25.479 or not. The police officer was proper and as usual, force or not, 815 01:09:25.920 --> 01:09:29.520 You're not going to force me in the same stupid stuff because you're the 816 01:09:29.560 --> 01:09:32.159 media and you want to drag Race into every flipping thing. I mean, 817 01:09:32.199 --> 01:09:35.199 his answer, that's what a real that's what a real leader, that's what 818 01:09:35.239 --> 01:09:39.520 a real mayor is. The mayor of Oxford should have said, you know 819 01:09:39.560 --> 01:09:43.560 what, there's a current investigation into this. I'll get back with you after 820 01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:45.920 we concluded. And that would have been fun. That's but all the heaven, 821 01:09:46.319 --> 01:09:49.039 all the hem and and han and the you know, hand ringing over 822 01:09:49.079 --> 01:09:54.279 it and the butts, it's not time for that yet. Let's let's get 823 01:09:54.279 --> 01:10:00.239 the snavely. But at this point we would say it was something that I 824 01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:05.479 had hoped never to see. President President of Frontline Advisors, Dan Hills, 825 01:10:05.520 --> 01:10:09.279 thank you very much, Danny. We'll talk to you soon. And with 826 01:10:09.399 --> 01:10:13.279 that we move on to the eleven o'clock hour News just ahead and much more 827 01:10:13.319 --> 01:10:16.159 on the Scott Slane Show. I'm Gary Jeff Walker and for Sloaney. Meanwhile, 828 01:10:16.199 --> 01:10:20.479 sleeping a top of twenty mattresses is a young woman. I'm a princess 829 01:10:20.680 --> 01:10:25.760 and I'm in pain. What's wrong? Someone put a p under all these 830 01:10:25.840 --> 01:10:30.239 mattresses and it's killing my back. You can feel the p of course, 831 01:10:30.399 --> 01:10:33.319 I'm a princess, stupid. Sorry, really, I just want to listen 832 01:10:33.319 --> 01:10:38.239 to Eddie and Rocky. Eddie and Rocky. Sure they're funny, but you're 833 01:10:38.279 --> 01:10:44.479 a princess. Eddie and Rocky are the kings of my afternoons. Eddie and 834 01:10:44.600 --> 01:10:48.479 Rocky give your day a fairy tale ending. Eddie and rock This afternoon at 835 01:10:48.520 --> 01:10:56.560 three on seven hundred WLW, iHeartRadio show with Gerry Jeff hosting. On seven 836 01:10:56.640 --> 01:11:00.960 hundred WLW. Complaints should be launched about Gary Jeff Walker, not Scott Sloane, 837 01:11:02.119 --> 01:11:06.319 because the views expressed on this show, especially by the hosts me, 838 01:11:06.840 --> 01:11:12.640 are not necessarily the views or the thoughts of the staff, management or anyone 839 01:11:12.640 --> 01:11:16.840 else associated with Scott Sloane Show. But my producer Liam agrees with everything I 840 01:11:16.920 --> 01:11:21.319 say, so you can direct your ire at him as well. In this 841 01:11:21.359 --> 01:11:26.079 segment, we're going to talk to an old friend who has his finger on 842 01:11:26.119 --> 01:11:33.279 the pulse of everything. It the Internet of Things world is dangerous and it's 843 01:11:33.319 --> 01:11:39.119 ready to kill you at any moment. And here's a guy who just to 844 01:11:39.760 --> 01:11:45.720 just to kind of solidify your fears about that as Dave Hatter, how are 845 01:11:45.760 --> 01:11:48.439 you from in trust it? Dave Hatter? How are you doing? Have 846 01:11:48.520 --> 01:11:54.359 you got your aluminum foil hat on yet? I took it off so that 847 01:11:54.399 --> 01:11:58.800 it wouldn't block the signal for our call today, Gary, Jeff, I'm 848 01:11:58.960 --> 01:12:00.560 excellent. I hope trust it was a merry Christmas, and I hope you're 849 01:12:00.600 --> 01:12:04.560 looking forward to a happy new year. It was, it was, and 850 01:12:04.680 --> 01:12:08.840 yeah, I am hopefully you and all your listeners are as well. All 851 01:12:08.920 --> 01:12:11.880 right, so looking to the new year. In Ohio, of course, 852 01:12:11.920 --> 01:12:15.600 and we've been talking about it on the news this morning, the new law 853 01:12:15.640 --> 01:12:21.399 goes into effect that's supposed to protect kids under sixteen online from certain social media 854 01:12:23.159 --> 01:12:30.359 opportunities and have parental consent and parental blocking of their devices if they're if they're 855 01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:34.520 under age. With this new law going into effect in Ohio, the Pew 856 01:12:34.600 --> 01:12:43.720 Research Center finds that ninety three percent of kids aged thirteen to seventeen are using 857 01:12:43.800 --> 01:12:51.079 YouTube, sixty three percent are on TikTok. Teens are online almost constantly. 858 01:12:51.279 --> 01:12:56.479 Dave, tell me about this story and tell me if this new Ohio law 859 01:12:56.520 --> 01:13:00.479 is going to have any effect at all of keeping teens safe from what looks 860 01:13:00.560 --> 01:13:08.880 like an all consuming monster. Well, Garry, Jeff, I guess I 861 01:13:08.920 --> 01:13:14.000 would start by asking you the question since we've had the Children's Online Privacy Protection 862 01:13:14.119 --> 01:13:17.279 Acts for a long time and it says that children under thirteen can't use these 863 01:13:17.319 --> 01:13:23.680 online services without pernal consent, and you just gave those statistics from Pew basically 864 01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:28.279 saying most teams are online all the time, whether it's YouTube, TikTok, 865 01:13:28.399 --> 01:13:30.720 Instagram, Snapchat, or something else. I mean, you tell me, 866 01:13:30.920 --> 01:13:33.199 what do you think this is going to do? Now, I will say, 867 01:13:33.720 --> 01:13:36.800 you know, versus a national law, you know, this is an 868 01:13:36.800 --> 01:13:43.399 Ohio law. You know, if the Ohio Attorney General, if people complain 869 01:13:43.760 --> 01:13:47.319 right file complaints and then they aggressively perceive this, maybe it could put it 870 01:13:47.319 --> 01:13:50.520 down in it. But you know, one of the things that changes in 871 01:13:50.520 --> 01:13:56.159 my mind versus Kappa is it sets the age to sixteen. So, according 872 01:13:56.159 --> 01:13:59.840 to what I'm reading here, beginning of January fifteenth, operators must attained per 873 01:14:00.119 --> 01:14:03.199 concern from four establishing accounts for children under the age of sixteen. They must 874 01:14:03.199 --> 01:14:10.079 also prevent parents with a list of censoring or content moderation features. You know, 875 01:14:10.319 --> 01:14:14.920 So first off, you know, the sensoring and content moderation features. 876 01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:16.399 And I just want to throw this out there. You though it's not one 877 01:14:16.439 --> 01:14:20.239 hundred percent on, topics are available to parents in a lot of ways already. 878 01:14:20.720 --> 01:14:25.720 Whether it's your your cell carrier, Verizon, T Mobile, whomever, 879 01:14:26.079 --> 01:14:29.520 they generally will have some kind of pernal controls. You can turn on your 880 01:14:29.520 --> 01:14:32.840 internet service provider, assuming it you're not going through Verizon or some cell or 881 01:14:32.920 --> 01:14:36.600 carrier for that team, spectrum charger or whoever, typically has some sort of 882 01:14:36.600 --> 01:14:41.520 parental controls. So and you know, there are all the way down to 883 01:14:41.560 --> 01:14:45.960 software applications out there like Netmanning that you can install on devices to have you 884 01:14:45.960 --> 01:14:48.560 know, almost total control over what your kids can do. So for parents 885 01:14:48.560 --> 01:14:51.359 who are concerned about this, and I think they should be, don't don't 886 01:14:51.399 --> 01:14:55.439 maysus understand what I'm saying. Parents should be concerned. As a parent, 887 01:14:55.840 --> 01:14:58.239 You know, I've been concerned about this stuff for a long time and I 888 01:14:58.279 --> 01:15:02.239 only have one teenager still, But there are options out there to try to 889 01:15:02.239 --> 01:15:05.600 lock this down even without this new law in Ohio. You know, I 890 01:15:05.640 --> 01:15:10.840 think social media is definitely not doing children any good. The longer you can 891 01:15:10.920 --> 01:15:13.920 keep them off of it and away from it the better. And along the 892 01:15:14.039 --> 01:15:16.880 same line here, Jeff, here's a similar related story from December first of 893 01:15:16.960 --> 01:15:21.640 this year. Facebook whistleblower want to help kids keep them off social media. 894 01:15:23.239 --> 01:15:27.640 So, you know, there's plenty of people who've left these social media companies 895 01:15:27.640 --> 01:15:30.439 and seeing the harm that they've been doing. There's all kinds of lawsuits out 896 01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:35.920 there, but the problem is to some extent just one of scale. Right, 897 01:15:36.039 --> 01:15:41.399 you have billions of users on these platforms, and you know, do 898 01:15:41.520 --> 01:15:46.079 you think that barring aggressive enforcement of these laws, since there is no national 899 01:15:46.159 --> 01:15:51.079 law other than Kappa, which really hasn't done much, it's going to keep 900 01:15:51.159 --> 01:15:55.800 kids off of this. But you know, my guest is no. You 901 01:15:55.840 --> 01:15:58.319 know, kids often figure out how to get around this stuff, and it's 902 01:15:58.319 --> 01:16:01.399 pretty easy to claim you're any age you want. I mean, that's another 903 01:16:01.439 --> 01:16:05.199 ongoing problem with all this stuff is you have access to adults out there who 904 01:16:05.319 --> 01:16:08.960 are pretending to be children and so forth. So well, you know, 905 01:16:09.680 --> 01:16:12.800 today, in today's world day, you can claim that you're anything that you're 906 01:16:12.840 --> 01:16:16.760 not just because you feel like you are. Anyway, continue, I think 907 01:16:16.800 --> 01:16:19.359 it's a step in the right direction. Gary, Jeff, I think more 908 01:16:19.399 --> 01:16:24.680 states need to be moving in this direction, you know. And if you 909 01:16:24.720 --> 01:16:28.159 look at all the things that this law purports to view again, especially if 910 01:16:28.199 --> 01:16:33.000 the Ohio AG is going to aggressively pursue legal action, you know, it 911 01:16:33.039 --> 01:16:36.880 could probably make it again. It's certainly a step in the right direction. 912 01:16:38.640 --> 01:16:43.279 I think, though the scale of something like this to enforce is quite difficult. 913 01:16:43.920 --> 01:16:46.119 And you know, if you think about it from the perspective of the 914 01:16:46.159 --> 01:16:51.199 social media site, let's just say they have a vested interest in getting you 915 01:16:51.279 --> 01:16:56.800 to use their fight as often as possible, to get you to use their 916 01:16:56.840 --> 01:17:00.039 fight exclusively, no matter how old you are, no matter how old you 917 01:17:00.079 --> 01:17:02.880 are. Okay, I got a couple of minutes, A couple of minutes, 918 01:17:03.079 --> 01:17:06.399 A couple of minutes, Dave Hatter, and just if you can do 919 01:17:06.439 --> 01:17:12.399 this in two minutes. A marketing team within Cox Media Group claims it has 920 01:17:12.439 --> 01:17:16.640 the capability to listen to ambient conversations of consumers through embedded microphones and smartphones, 921 01:17:16.680 --> 01:17:20.760 smart TVs other devices, to gather data and use it to target ads. 922 01:17:21.319 --> 01:17:25.560 This is something you and I have talked about. If you've got something in 923 01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:32.760 your hand that has a microphone and there are speakers involved. Then somebody is 924 01:17:32.840 --> 01:17:38.960 always listening apparently, and they're bragging about it. Yeah, I think this 925 01:17:39.039 --> 01:17:43.000 is an interesting story. This just hit the news recently. That particular article 926 01:17:43.159 --> 01:17:45.920 you're referring to came out December fourteenth, and I would encourage people to go 927 01:17:46.039 --> 01:17:49.600 steep in themselves. For anyone listening. I'll reshare this on Twitter. I'll 928 01:17:49.600 --> 01:17:54.079 make this easy for you. Just go to add Dave Hatter on Twitter x 929 01:17:54.159 --> 01:17:56.920 whatever you want to call it, and I'll reshare it so it'll be easy 930 01:17:56.960 --> 01:17:59.680 for people to find. You know, for years and years and years, 931 01:17:59.680 --> 01:18:01.520 we've heard that these companies aren't listening to you. But I want to point 932 01:18:01.560 --> 01:18:06.920 out that if you're using a product like Theory or Alexa, it by default 933 01:18:08.199 --> 01:18:10.800 must listen to you in order to do what you want it to do. 934 01:18:10.960 --> 01:18:13.399 Right, It has to be waiting for you to say, hey, Siri, 935 01:18:13.600 --> 01:18:15.479 you knows how many of as we get activated, so you know, 936 01:18:15.600 --> 01:18:19.279 the capability is certainly there. Now, these companies like Facebook and so forth 937 01:18:19.319 --> 01:18:24.039 have always claimed they're not using that. Now you have someone admitting that this 938 01:18:24.119 --> 01:18:29.159 is a capability that they offer to their customers, and you know this is 939 01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:31.319 you know, one of the crazy things is we get more and more and 940 01:18:32.039 --> 01:18:34.680 more of this technology have been in our lives, whether it's your car, 941 01:18:35.279 --> 01:18:39.840 your phone, your thermostat, your doorbell, to your point, if it 942 01:18:39.920 --> 01:18:44.000 has a camera and or a microphone, it could be listening to you and 943 01:18:44.079 --> 01:18:46.359 maybe listening to you in order to provide whatever service you bought it for. 944 01:18:47.520 --> 01:18:51.840 One of the things that's great about newer phones is barring some sort of malware 945 01:18:53.000 --> 01:18:56.159 or something. You know, it has an indicator that lights up to tell 946 01:18:56.199 --> 01:18:59.439 you when the microphone is hot or the camera is hot. So I would 947 01:18:59.479 --> 01:19:01.079 encourage peeople to keep in mind that, you know, if you see the 948 01:19:01.479 --> 01:19:05.439 camera light light up or the microphone light light up, maybe there's some sort 949 01:19:05.479 --> 01:19:10.239 of activity taking place there and you need to be cognizant that. But it 950 01:19:10.279 --> 01:19:12.880 also goes to show you that, you know, do they want to listen 951 01:19:12.920 --> 01:19:15.520 to you? Well, of course they do, because there's valuable information in 952 01:19:15.560 --> 01:19:19.720 the things you're talking about where they could be selling you stuff. Spooky on 953 01:19:20.079 --> 01:19:25.000 the least, Yeah, I agree, it's just spooky. Add Dave Hatter 954 01:19:25.159 --> 01:19:29.520 on Twitter or x if you'd like more, and uh, so much so 955 01:19:29.600 --> 01:19:31.880 much great information from you all the time, Dave, I appreciate the visit 956 01:19:31.920 --> 01:19:36.520 today Always my pleasure Garret Jeff, Happy New Year, Happy New Year. 957 01:19:36.920 --> 01:19:43.319 Dan was from Good Gunbadguy dot com.

So as we look to the new year, there's a new 980 01:21:45.680 --> 01:21:48.920 law in Illinois, there are new gun laws in some states. Kind of 981 01:21:49.000 --> 01:21:54.159 update us and tell us what's going on. The Supreme Court just decided not 982 01:21:54.359 --> 01:22:00.880 to hear the Illinois band on AR fifteen's AK forty seven and the like. 983 01:22:00.960 --> 01:22:02.880 Tell me what you know about that? First off, Well, this is 984 01:22:02.960 --> 01:22:09.560 yeah, this is interesting stuff because we're starting to have some successes and I 985 01:22:09.560 --> 01:22:13.600 think a lot of judges are are starting to get kind of fed up with 986 01:22:13.760 --> 01:22:18.399 the nonsense that's coming from the states in trying to violate, you know, 987 01:22:18.880 --> 01:22:23.279 our Second Amendment rights. It's happening all over the place. Illinois is happening 988 01:22:23.279 --> 01:22:27.720 in New York. New York just had a just got we just got a 989 01:22:27.760 --> 01:22:31.039 great defeat against the State of New York. California, same thing, I 990 01:22:31.119 --> 01:22:35.640 give you a little bit just as far as the New York one, and 991 01:22:35.680 --> 01:22:42.600 it's similar in all these states. These things are happening the On December eighth, 992 01:22:43.119 --> 01:22:46.560 the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed a federal injunction against 993 01:22:46.600 --> 01:22:51.079 three significant portions of the New York's c ci A New York c c c 994 01:22:51.199 --> 01:22:56.800 i A, the Concealed Carry Improvement Act, and it's it's very restrictive. 995 01:22:57.279 --> 01:23:02.359 But what happened here in New York is they got defeated. Basically, three 996 01:23:02.359 --> 01:23:08.079 components of that got defeated. The requirement of applicants to disclose social media accounts 997 01:23:08.920 --> 01:23:15.720 for review prior to getting a concealed carry license got shot down. The restrictions 998 01:23:15.760 --> 01:23:19.079 on carrying a firearm on private property that's accessible to the public that got shot 999 01:23:19.119 --> 01:23:24.119 down, and the restriction on carrying in houses of worship got shot down. 1000 01:23:25.119 --> 01:23:29.359 And now with Illinois and see, they all go after this so called assault 1001 01:23:29.399 --> 01:23:32.640 weapons, and they always want the assault weapon ban because it's the scary thing 1002 01:23:32.720 --> 01:23:36.720 they can put out in the media. They can say assault weapon, and 1003 01:23:36.840 --> 01:23:41.880 people who don't know any better get scared. Sally soccer mom, She runs 1004 01:23:41.920 --> 01:23:45.720 to the voting booth. She does everything she can to vote for the politician 1005 01:23:45.760 --> 01:23:51.479 that promises her safety against these scary assault weapons. They love that term. 1006 01:23:53.119 --> 01:23:58.920 It means nothing, but they've created it so they can scare people into supporting 1007 01:23:58.960 --> 01:24:01.000 this type of legislation. But when the courts end up seeing it, like 1008 01:24:01.079 --> 01:24:06.079 in Illinois and other states, the judges say, look, this really is 1009 01:24:06.119 --> 01:24:11.000 based on nothing, and it's nonsense. It's all a lot of propaganda and 1010 01:24:11.039 --> 01:24:17.239 rhetoric. And these so called assault weapons are really averaged every day rifles that 1011 01:24:17.600 --> 01:24:23.079 are in common use. And another thing that came out of New York that 1012 01:24:23.399 --> 01:24:29.600 affects these is the Bruin case, which recently said gun laws must meet historical 1013 01:24:29.640 --> 01:24:33.479 tradition. And now we're finding that none of these gun laws meet historical tradition. 1014 01:24:33.560 --> 01:24:38.319 Because back in the day when our country was founded, there were no 1015 01:24:38.680 --> 01:24:41.720 so called assault weapons me. There were no magazine restrictions, there was even 1016 01:24:41.760 --> 01:24:45.439 there was no registrations, there was no licenses, there was none of this 1017 01:24:45.479 --> 01:24:48.119 stuff. So I think a lot of these gun laws are going to start 1018 01:24:48.159 --> 01:24:56.159 getting shot down, but the states will appeal them for as long as they 1019 01:24:56.159 --> 01:25:00.119 can, so we'd be fighting these things forever and they'll be just dragging their 1020 01:25:00.159 --> 01:25:03.680 way through. Why did the US Supreme Court decide not to hear the Illinois 1021 01:25:03.760 --> 01:25:10.279 case. I'm not exactly sure why they but it probably because it didn't meet 1022 01:25:11.079 --> 01:25:15.399 Bruin the historical tradition. That's what That's happening a lot. So that Bruin 1023 01:25:15.840 --> 01:25:20.159 decision is affecting court cases all across the country. It's pretty cool when you 1024 01:25:20.159 --> 01:25:24.640 think about it, because we didn't have this before. But just Justice Clarence 1025 01:25:24.680 --> 01:25:29.399 Thomas said, and he created this precedence in that Bruined decision, in his 1026 01:25:30.399 --> 01:25:34.760 statement that gun laws must meet historical tradition. And now we're finding that courts 1027 01:25:34.840 --> 01:25:39.960 have to abide by that. It's crazy, it's good. It is good. 1028 01:25:42.079 --> 01:25:46.359 Is there anything else taking shape or going into effect January first, that 1029 01:25:46.880 --> 01:25:53.600 you guys think is reprehensible when it comes to the Second Amendment. Well, 1030 01:25:53.680 --> 01:26:00.439 we're watching California. There's some stuff going on in California with what they're calling 1031 01:26:00.680 --> 01:26:05.359 sensitive sensitive places. Now I gotta keep bringing it back to New York because 1032 01:26:05.439 --> 01:26:11.239 New York is the epitome of gun control. And what they did in the 1033 01:26:11.279 --> 01:26:15.359 CCIA, the Concealed Carr Improvement Act is they created a sensitive places where they 1034 01:26:15.399 --> 01:26:18.920 could deem anything sensitive. So now California is doing the same thing. But 1035 01:26:18.920 --> 01:26:23.600 that's in the court system right now and it's being it just got it just 1036 01:26:23.640 --> 01:26:30.479 got shot down by a circuit court judge and we're waiting to see on appeal 1037 01:26:30.520 --> 01:26:35.720 for that. So it's it's basically, you know, keep it's it's gonna 1038 01:26:35.720 --> 01:26:41.520 be constantly watching and back and forth with these courts and the appellate courts, 1039 01:26:42.199 --> 01:26:45.760 and eventually some of these things will make their way up to the Supreme Court 1040 01:26:45.800 --> 01:26:49.079 and we'll get it defeated once and for all. But keep your eyeing California 1041 01:26:49.159 --> 01:26:56.279 for that sensitive places. Several states first so called assault weapons, assault weapon 1042 01:26:56.840 --> 01:27:00.840 legislation, and like I said, in New York, the restriction on carrying 1043 01:27:01.319 --> 01:27:05.039 on private property that's accessible to the public, Like I said, that got 1044 01:27:05.079 --> 01:27:09.840 shot down. But they're going to peel that and they're going to keep fighting 1045 01:27:09.920 --> 01:27:13.439 it. So it's always a gray area because it leaves the states with the 1046 01:27:13.520 --> 01:27:18.319 upper hand When these laws are still on the books but yet have been defeated 1047 01:27:18.359 --> 01:27:25.399 in court and are in the appeals process, it's very, very gray area. 1048 01:27:26.079 --> 01:27:30.039 So, in other words, to defend your god given supposed to be 1049 01:27:30.119 --> 01:27:34.920 constitutionally guaranteed rights to own and bear firearms in this country according to the Bill 1050 01:27:34.960 --> 01:27:40.159 of Rights, there's a constant legal fight for you to have to be to 1051 01:27:40.720 --> 01:27:45.840 enjoy that god given right. It's a naz Yeah, no, it is, 1052 01:27:45.880 --> 01:27:48.920 and it's infuriating. And the one thing we got that we can really 1053 01:27:48.960 --> 01:27:55.640 count on groups like Gun Owners of America Second Amendment Foundation. You know, 1054 01:27:55.720 --> 01:28:01.199 there are national gun rights organizations who are out there fighting, and it's important 1055 01:28:01.239 --> 01:28:05.000 that we give him our money. We give him our money and memberships because 1056 01:28:05.439 --> 01:28:10.920 if it wasn't for them, these states would run away with our with our 1057 01:28:11.520 --> 01:28:15.159 our rights. Yeah, real quickly, if people want to know more about 1058 01:28:15.319 --> 01:28:17.560 you, where do they go and how do they find you?

On the other side, something 1067 01:28:50.159 --> 01:28:59.880 completely different, the Furball News Traffic and weather news radio seven hundred w l 1068 01:29:00.159 --> 01:29:06.800 JOB at Cincinnati some concerning stats about a respiratory illness affecting children with the eleven 1069 01:29:08.159 --> 01:29:12.840 eleven thirty report. I'm Ricky Huchino breaking now a new study out of Sweden 1070 01:29:13.279 --> 01:29:18.800 showing children with RSV are eleven times more likely to be hospitalized than other illnesses 1071 01:29:18.880 --> 01:29:24.199 like COVID nineteen in the flu. The CDC urging parents to do what they 1072 01:29:24.279 --> 01:29:28.399 can to cut down on the virus's spread this winter. According to the CDC, 1073 01:29:28.520 --> 01:29:32.239 as many as eighty thousand kids under five are hospitalized with RSV every year, 1074 01:29:32.439 --> 01:29:36.640 with one hundred to three hundred deaths with those with RSV. Those with 1075 01:29:36.760 --> 01:29:41.600 RSV, though usually contagious, for about three to eight days, and maybe 1076 01:29:41.640 --> 01:29:45.680 contagious a day or two before they even start showing symptoms, which is why 1077 01:29:45.720 --> 01:29:49.680 the CDC says these numbers really drive home the importance of immunizations for children and 1078 01:29:49.800 --> 01:29:56.279 pregnant mothers. That is ABC's Morgan Norwood, head of Christmas. The Oha 1079 01:29:56.279 --> 01:30:00.760 Department of Health provided an update on the states three week average for respiratory illnesses, 1080 01:30:00.760 --> 01:30:05.600 saying it was on the rise, approaching fifteen thousand cases.

Because a 1144 01:34:48.640 --> 01:34:50.920 kid growing up in New York City, you know, and I know that 1145 01:34:50.960 --> 01:34:55.239 every major department store had a Santa Claus. There was Macy's, there was 1146 01:34:55.319 --> 01:34:58.239 Gimbals, there was a and S which is Abraham and Strauss. Okay, 1147 01:34:58.520 --> 01:35:01.680 and it was quite unusual for a Jewish kid like me want me to meet 1148 01:35:01.720 --> 01:35:06.600 Santa Claus. Yet all my friends were always boasting how this big fat guy 1149 01:35:06.640 --> 01:35:11.119 with a beard would give away presents and goodies this time of the year, 1150 01:35:11.159 --> 01:35:14.039 all right, So I begged my mama.

We passed Pacific Street stop and the next station was Decalbery Avenue. 1154 01:35:26.000 --> 01:35:28.920 Up the escalator. My heart was pounding a and s was right in 1155 01:35:29.000 --> 01:35:30.800 walking distance. I saw it. I was in heaven. Okay, I 1156 01:35:30.920 --> 01:35:34.079 was nervous. What was I gonna say? Well, what I asked for? 1157 01:35:34.560 --> 01:35:38.439 You know, I didn't even ask my friends what they did when they 1158 01:35:38.600 --> 01:35:42.119 visited Santa. But it was too late. Why I was online and I 1159 01:35:42.239 --> 01:35:45.760 was next and the big fight fat guy with the white beard said, okay, 1160 01:35:45.760 --> 01:35:48.920 come on, you're an acts. Time to meet Santa. I didn't 1161 01:35:48.920 --> 01:35:53.439 even think my legs would move, so I approached him in a big chair. 1162 01:35:53.720 --> 01:35:55.840 Hop on, he said, hop on, have a seat on my 1163 01:35:55.920 --> 01:35:59.119 lab. Tell me what you're like for Christmas. I couldn't get the coach 1164 01:35:59.199 --> 01:36:01.279 to talk, but follow the words crept out. I whispered in his ear 1165 01:36:01.319 --> 01:36:04.640 and I said, Sannah, I'm a little nervous, and this is my 1166 01:36:04.680 --> 01:36:08.279 first time visiting you. He says, don't be afraid, my boy, 1167 01:36:08.319 --> 01:36:11.439 don't be afraid. So I asked him if I could whisper in his ear 1168 01:36:11.479 --> 01:36:13.600 as to what I had to say, and he said, of course. 1169 01:36:14.159 --> 01:36:17.039 I said, Santa, I'm just a little bit nervous because I'm Jewish. 1170 01:36:17.119 --> 01:36:20.600 All right. He came back closer. It came to my year, and 1171 01:36:20.640 --> 01:36:24.520 he whispered back, you know what he said, Yeah, don't worry at 1172 01:36:24.560 --> 01:36:30.720 all. Son, So am I And that's my Santa story, my Christmas 1173 01:36:30.720 --> 01:36:33.840 story. Well, I forget it. It was riveting, very compelling. 1174 01:36:34.119 --> 01:36:38.680 Thank you, thank you for sharing that with us. So it was updated, 1175 01:36:38.720 --> 01:36:41.239 it was funny. I don't think it was okay. I don't think 1176 01:36:41.279 --> 01:36:46.239 that he's probably the first or the last Jewish store. Sanna Andy, I 1177 01:36:46.239 --> 01:36:50.399 agree. I don't think that's probably uncommon. But I do find it quite 1178 01:36:50.840 --> 01:36:56.079 instructive that you wanted to be part of the grift that the other kids because 1179 01:36:56.119 --> 01:37:00.039 you knew you could get stuff. That was your whole motivations. Most of 1180 01:37:00.079 --> 01:37:02.560 my friends, you know, I had, I had a bevy of friends 1181 01:37:02.560 --> 01:37:05.159 that you know on our block where I lived at eightieth Street, and Brooke. 1182 01:37:05.199 --> 01:37:08.880 Then they were Jews, there were Christians, there was everybody. You 1183 01:37:08.880 --> 01:37:11.159 know, we melted it. We didn't care what religion we were. But 1184 01:37:11.199 --> 01:37:14.880 when it came to Christmas time, I kept on wondering why these kids always 1185 01:37:14.920 --> 01:37:16.079 wanted to see Santa and what do they get? What was this guy? 1186 01:37:16.319 --> 01:37:19.840 So I asked my mam, if I could go see Santa, that's awesome. 1187 01:37:20.039 --> 01:37:24.359 Well I think it was that great. You know, I don't remember 1188 01:37:25.159 --> 01:37:30.279 except maybe as a little child ever going to the department store to sit on 1189 01:37:30.319 --> 01:37:33.880 Santa's lap. We were encouraged to write letters maybe you know, and you 1190 01:37:33.920 --> 01:37:38.279 write letters all the time. I'm surprised you didn't just drop a line to 1191 01:37:38.319 --> 01:37:42.439 the north pole to get what you want to. Look at that age, 1192 01:37:42.800 --> 01:37:47.039 didn't have my typewritt you came out of the womb with a typewriter. No. 1193 01:37:47.439 --> 01:37:51.000 I put the department stores in Cincinnati and Greater Cincinnati probably all at Sinners, 1194 01:37:51.000 --> 01:37:54.760 didn't they? And I remember the malls even when I moved here years 1195 01:37:54.760 --> 01:37:58.199 ago, the malls had Santas during Christmas time. Yeah, I didn't live 1196 01:37:58.239 --> 01:38:00.800 here, so I lived in places where they had malls and they had Santa's. 1197 01:38:00.840 --> 01:38:04.720 I'm sure we just it wasn't really a family thing or something I aspired 1198 01:38:04.800 --> 01:38:11.159 to do. Necessarily. I believed that Santa would bring presents, and my 1199 01:38:11.279 --> 01:38:15.479 parents didn't discourage that belief, and uh, you know, Santa Claus always 1200 01:38:15.479 --> 01:38:18.159 would show up on Christmas Morning with goodies for us that we had asked for. 1201 01:38:18.439 --> 01:38:23.399 That we told our parents that we wanted. So I and even there 1202 01:38:23.479 --> 01:38:30.199 was one time We're visiting my grandparents in Iowa and under what where? What 1203 01:38:30.239 --> 01:38:33.159 do you mean? Where's that? Wait? Is that? What planet is 1204 01:38:33.199 --> 01:38:39.720 that on? It's it's that's what I grow corn corn coin Land. It's 1205 01:38:39.760 --> 01:38:44.920 actually the bread basket of America. Without Iowa, you probably wouldn't be living 1206 01:38:45.000 --> 01:38:48.720 right now. You probably I went to the Reds to the Reds game two 1207 01:38:48.800 --> 01:38:53.239 years ago in the summer time when they played the Cubs in Iowa, that 1208 01:38:53.399 --> 01:38:59.800 game in the in the Field of Dreams. Oh yeah no. But so 1209 01:39:00.279 --> 01:39:02.319 I remember one time at the grandparents we were there for Christmas. We were 1210 01:39:02.359 --> 01:39:06.159 little kids. I was probably about I don't know, six five. My 1211 01:39:06.479 --> 01:39:14.079 younger brothers were like three and one, and we would be there at Grandma 1212 01:39:14.079 --> 01:39:16.880 and Grandpa's and parents are there and we're just visiting for the Christmas holiday, 1213 01:39:16.920 --> 01:39:20.039 and all of a sudden there's a knock on the door Christmas Eve and it 1214 01:39:20.119 --> 01:39:25.520 is snowing outside. It's a huge blanket. It was a mountain of snow 1215 01:39:25.600 --> 01:39:29.520 piling up outside on Christmas Eve, just what you want. And it's late. 1216 01:39:29.720 --> 01:39:31.439 We were allowed to stay up a little bit later. And there's a 1217 01:39:31.520 --> 01:39:35.359 knock on the door, and lo and behold, it's Santa Claus at the 1218 01:39:35.399 --> 01:39:39.319 front door. He didn't come down the chimney, obviously, because there was 1219 01:39:39.319 --> 01:39:41.880 a roaring fire in the chimney. It would have burned as took us. 1220 01:39:43.119 --> 01:39:46.479 So anyway, we're there with Santa Claus and he's bringing gifts from us. 1221 01:39:46.479 --> 01:39:51.319 And they'd done this with a neighbor next door who agreed to. Of course, 1222 01:39:51.359 --> 01:39:56.279 we had no idea. We thought it was actually the jolly old Elf 1223 01:39:56.359 --> 01:40:00.159 himself who would stop by grandmon Grandpa's house instead of coming down the chimney and 1224 01:40:00.680 --> 01:40:04.800 burning his butt. But so there we are, and and he's got his 1225 01:40:04.960 --> 01:40:10.039 big knapsack, he's got a pack and just handing gifts out of the big 1226 01:40:10.079 --> 01:40:14.520 red sack. And that was a wonderful, marvelous Christmas as I remember, 1227 01:40:14.800 --> 01:40:18.760 But there were not a whole lot of them. You know, it's wonderful 1228 01:40:18.760 --> 01:40:23.239 when you see these stories on TV. I mean, you really against you 1229 01:40:23.319 --> 01:40:25.880 because people don't think I have a heart, but I do have a little 1230 01:40:25.880 --> 01:40:28.920 bit of a heart. And I see the kid's eyes lighte up like silver 1231 01:40:29.039 --> 01:40:31.479 dollars when they see standing when they get these gifts. I mean, you 1232 01:40:31.520 --> 01:40:33.680 know. And on the other side of the coin to some ugly stories, 1233 01:40:33.720 --> 01:40:39.000 when I saw some lady in Norwood had a motorcycle or a bike for a 1234 01:40:39.119 --> 01:40:43.119 kid for Christmas, and some kids stole it off the front. You know, 1235 01:40:43.600 --> 01:40:46.880 they got it. They got the bike. Yes, they saw and 1236 01:40:46.920 --> 01:40:50.079 somebody said, hey, that's the bike we saw on TV. And then 1237 01:40:50.159 --> 01:40:54.760 the little seven year old got his motorbike back. Great. Great, And 1238 01:40:54.880 --> 01:40:58.159 I tell you so funny about that story. First of all, how could 1239 01:40:58.159 --> 01:41:00.600 you live with yourself by doing that to someone? Number two, how do 1240 01:41:00.640 --> 01:41:04.359 you even ride that in the neighborhood knowing that it's not us and someone's going 1241 01:41:04.439 --> 01:41:08.319 to see it because it was on TV. So I mean, how smart 1242 01:41:08.319 --> 01:41:11.039 can you be by doing that? But again, those people have a chance 1243 01:41:11.239 --> 01:41:15.039 of getting it back someday with carma. I mean, you just people just 1244 01:41:15.319 --> 01:41:17.239 that way. I don't know if you did be brought up there, If 1245 01:41:17.279 --> 01:41:20.399 you do something like that in the first place, you just don't care, 1246 01:41:20.560 --> 01:41:26.880 Andy, You just don't care about anybody else's feelings at all. Yeah, 1247 01:41:27.079 --> 01:41:30.359 you're probably right. So did you ever have did you ever have? So? 1248 01:41:30.479 --> 01:41:34.680 Obviously even though your family was Jewish, you were Jewish, you've got 1249 01:41:34.760 --> 01:41:38.560 Christmas gifts? No, No, I was, I still am. I 1250 01:41:39.119 --> 01:41:42.359 understand I'm talking about at the time, and yes, you still are. 1251 01:41:42.680 --> 01:41:47.439 That's good. So do you remember any memorable Christmas gifts you got as a 1252 01:41:47.520 --> 01:41:54.720 child? Andy? You know, it's funny, you just I don't really 1253 01:41:54.760 --> 01:41:57.960 remember. I'm sure there were some great ones, and you know, I 1254 01:41:58.439 --> 01:42:01.000 was never one of those kids. My brother and I we just never wanted, 1255 01:42:01.039 --> 01:42:03.920 Thank goodness. We came from a beautiful home, and you know, 1256 01:42:03.960 --> 01:42:08.439 we got everything we ever wanted all our lives, and that was great. 1257 01:42:08.520 --> 01:42:11.439 So there's nothing that really that. We got bikes, you know, we 1258 01:42:11.479 --> 01:42:14.560 had an electric train set, which is a wonderful big train set. I 1259 01:42:14.600 --> 01:42:16.399 don't even know where it is now, but you know, we were taking 1260 01:42:16.399 --> 01:42:19.039 care of his kids. We really were, had a nice home, had 1261 01:42:19.079 --> 01:42:23.359 a nice little apple tree in the backyard with a basketball goal, and then 1262 01:42:23.760 --> 01:42:26.159 on that tree. So we lived in a good neighborhood and we had a 1263 01:42:26.239 --> 01:42:28.880 lot of good times. Andy Furrman, how was the dentist this morning? 1264 01:42:29.159 --> 01:42:32.079 Did you get gas? You know? No, I tell you it's funny. 1265 01:42:32.319 --> 01:42:33.960 All I had to do is get at my check up and it's got 1266 01:42:34.000 --> 01:42:38.600 a cleaning. That's it. But the lady who did the deal, I 1267 01:42:38.640 --> 01:42:41.439 mean she had me like on a stretcher, like I was stretched out. 1268 01:42:41.680 --> 01:42:44.760 Yeah. I was never that flat on a chair. And I didn't like 1269 01:42:44.800 --> 01:42:46.399 it because when I got up, honestly, I got dizzy. I was 1270 01:42:46.479 --> 01:42:48.279 light at it, and I told the then to say, you know, 1271 01:42:48.880 --> 01:42:51.199 he got nervous. No, no, don't worry. I'm okay. I'm 1272 01:42:51.239 --> 01:42:55.680 okay, just like I think the blood has to rush back down from being 1273 01:42:55.880 --> 01:42:58.159 you know, laying on your side. And it wasn't like laying on a 1274 01:42:58.199 --> 01:43:00.039 lounge chair with your head. It is like, you know, at a 1275 01:43:00.079 --> 01:43:02.520 forty five degree angle. I was totally flat. I was like horizontal. 1276 01:43:02.720 --> 01:43:05.560 Why she did that to me, I don't know. I never had that 1277 01:43:05.600 --> 01:43:09.640 before the deadist. But you know, everything's good and everything's clean now, 1278 01:43:09.680 --> 01:43:12.279 it's good. Well, I mean I don't want to smoke a cigar because 1279 01:43:12.319 --> 01:43:15.920 I got my teeth dirty. Well, it's going to happen eventually, you 1280 01:43:15.000 --> 01:43:18.800 know, you know you're able to keep keep away from your stogies. Man, 1281 01:43:18.920 --> 01:43:23.000 I mean that's part of your persona, that's part of your everyday life. 1282 01:43:23.159 --> 01:43:26.119 Really yeah, well not every day, but I enjoy it. I 1283 01:43:26.119 --> 01:43:30.319 do enjoy it when Jose When Jose Rio, When Jose Rio comes into town 1284 01:43:30.359 --> 01:43:32.520 and the first thing he does is visit you, comes right into your house 1285 01:43:32.560 --> 01:43:35.520 and said, Andy, you got a cigar for him? And that's what 1286 01:43:35.600 --> 01:43:39.439 you told me, you said, Jose Rio comes into town. He always 1287 01:43:39.479 --> 01:43:43.720 shows up at your house and always demands a cigar. You know, it's 1288 01:43:43.720 --> 01:43:46.720 funny. He came to my house and he walked in and he said, 1289 01:43:46.720 --> 01:43:49.159 how are you doing? And the neighbors went crazy. They came over. 1290 01:43:49.359 --> 01:43:53.479 He took pictures of Jose He's the one that I love. Jose. He 1291 01:43:53.560 --> 01:43:56.640 was a partner of mine with the Lake Grick Cook. We had a restaurant 1292 01:43:56.640 --> 01:43:59.960 nowhood from a sports cafe, and Jose was there and all the wages is 1293 01:44:00.079 --> 01:44:01.359 love them. However, she comes to the house and ask for a citar. 1294 01:44:01.640 --> 01:44:04.159 Is it by the way you alone? No, No, the wife's 1295 01:44:04.159 --> 01:44:06.960 in the car, I is aware in your driveway, is it bringer in? 1296 01:44:08.039 --> 01:44:10.960 No, No, he stayed in my house with the neighbors for a 1297 01:44:10.960 --> 01:44:15.079 good forty five minutes. The car. Yeah, they're in the car. 1298 01:44:15.359 --> 01:44:17.600 I don't understand. But maybe that's the way it is, you know what 1299 01:44:18.119 --> 01:44:21.520 in the Dominican I don't know. Maybe maybe that's custom. Maybe that's Dominican 1300 01:44:21.560 --> 01:44:27.079 customers not questioning it us to walk like ten paces behind him when they're out 1301 01:44:27.079 --> 01:44:30.800 somewhere. Who knows, maybe some I don't know. Let me ask you 1302 01:44:30.840 --> 01:44:33.119 this, Andy Furman, look into your crystal ball, because I know you 1303 01:44:33.159 --> 01:44:41.239 have one there, And what do you see for the future of Cincinnati sports 1304 01:44:41.279 --> 01:44:45.239 directly as we head into the new year? And what kind of Christmas gift 1305 01:44:45.560 --> 01:44:51.119 would you like to have seen the Bengals get after that awful, awful performance 1306 01:44:51.960 --> 01:44:56.199 this past weekend? What what Christmas gift? Well, the gift I want 1307 01:44:56.199 --> 01:44:59.319 to see is I want to see them beat a team that's in turmoil right 1308 01:44:59.359 --> 01:45:01.199 now, which is the Kansas City Chiefs, Right That's what I'd like to 1309 01:45:01.239 --> 01:45:04.000 see, you know. And everybody's giving me all the scenarios. I'm looking 1310 01:45:04.039 --> 01:45:09.039 at the New York Times playoff possibilities forget that stuff. It's all about winning. 1311 01:45:09.079 --> 01:45:11.840 You gotta win. You gotta beat Kansas City. Otherwise you're in deep 1312 01:45:12.000 --> 01:45:14.840 doo doo. Gotta beat them. But they're a team in turmoil. However, 1313 01:45:14.840 --> 01:45:17.399 the game is in Kansas City, and I don't like playing a team 1314 01:45:17.479 --> 01:45:23.079 that is coming off like this turmoil. That when they played Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh 1315 01:45:23.119 --> 01:45:26.640 had lost three straight games and they come and to play at home in Pittsburgh. 1316 01:45:26.680 --> 01:45:29.600 That's not a good sign. And just destroying the Steelers destroyed, the 1317 01:45:29.640 --> 01:45:34.520 Bengals destroyed. But a quarterback, a quarterback hadn't played in two years, 1318 01:45:34.560 --> 01:45:39.039 Mason Rudolph. When I heard Mason Rudolph, I said, one of Santa's 1319 01:45:39.039 --> 01:45:43.079 reindeer, the one with the red noses, playing quarterback for Pittsburgh. Well 1320 01:45:43.560 --> 01:45:47.600 was he really and truly? And scouts have said that he was the best 1321 01:45:47.680 --> 01:45:53.680 quarterback in preseason. This guy was outstanding at Oklahoma State. He was unbelieves 1322 01:45:53.720 --> 01:45:58.079 he still holds every quarterback record at Oklahoma State. And why he got screwed 1323 01:45:58.079 --> 01:46:00.479 over and passed over properly because of the money that was spent on their draft 1324 01:46:00.479 --> 01:46:04.279 pick and maybe on their backup. But we'll see what happens at Trubisky, 1325 01:46:04.319 --> 01:46:08.680 but I know he's going to start now. And it's funny because I asked 1326 01:46:09.239 --> 01:46:13.000 my Sunday morning partner on Fox Sports Radio, Bucket Brooks, who played in 1327 01:46:13.039 --> 01:46:15.399 the NFL for five years, I said, whatever happened to that rule you 1328 01:46:15.479 --> 01:46:19.760 don't lose your starting job for injury? Because would Trubisky come back or pick 1329 01:46:19.840 --> 01:46:25.039 it come back to play for Pittsburgh this week? He's that rules out the 1330 01:46:25.079 --> 01:46:28.199 window. Mason Rudolph's going to play, and Mason's going to get the start 1331 01:46:28.479 --> 01:46:31.159 this Sunday for the Pittsburgh Steelers because what he did last week, and that's 1332 01:46:31.159 --> 01:46:34.479 the way it should be. Well, what the Bengals needed for Christmas was 1333 01:46:34.520 --> 01:46:39.920 somebody who can actually call offensive plays. Thanks, how about that? Your 1334 01:46:39.960 --> 01:46:45.199 dad? A fourth and inches, fourth and inches to the goal line and 1335 01:46:45.239 --> 01:46:47.840 there's a pass play called. No one's really really bought that up and kind 1336 01:46:47.840 --> 01:46:54.199 of digested that. Why that was? I guess that Zach Taylor raised the 1337 01:46:54.239 --> 01:46:57.520 white flag and said, look, we can't run against the Pittsburgh Steelers. 1338 01:46:57.560 --> 01:47:00.439 The first time they played in this year, they team rushed was something like 1339 01:47:00.439 --> 01:47:03.439 thirty five yards, so they wasn't much better. And I don't understand. 1340 01:47:03.439 --> 01:47:06.840 I see you go for a pass play with fourth and inches when you know 1341 01:47:08.119 --> 01:47:12.199 the field is shrunk because you're into that goal line situation and they didn't make 1342 01:47:12.239 --> 01:47:15.560 it, you know, And what kind of momentum does that turned the game 1343 01:47:15.600 --> 01:47:17.880 around for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I look at it. They started in the 1344 01:47:17.880 --> 01:47:20.920 hole and the hole got deeper and deeper. Okay, So we're the home 1345 01:47:20.960 --> 01:47:26.800 of the Bearcats, and we also host Xavier Musketeer games from time to time 1346 01:47:26.840 --> 01:47:30.399 when there's not a conflict with UC basketball. For the new year, I 1347 01:47:30.439 --> 01:47:33.680 know you love basketball. What do you see these teams? What kind of 1348 01:47:34.039 --> 01:47:38.600 you're looking I'm looking at an upswing. I'm looking at an upscreen. If 1349 01:47:38.600 --> 01:47:41.800 you're going to graft the Xavier Musketeers, they are on the upscreen. How 1350 01:47:41.840 --> 01:47:45.159 they beat Seaton Hall, and not only be they beat about twenty And there 1351 01:47:45.199 --> 01:47:48.560 is a team that came off a big win prior to the Xavier game. 1352 01:47:48.720 --> 01:47:54.159 I was shocked, especially after Xavier looked terrible against Saint John's. They couldn't 1353 01:47:54.159 --> 01:47:57.880 even inbound the basketball. So they came back bit time against Seaton Hall. 1354 01:47:58.000 --> 01:48:00.800 And this team is jelling and the jailling at the right time. As far 1355 01:48:00.840 --> 01:48:02.920 as you see is concerned. You know, I question, they're going to 1356 01:48:02.960 --> 01:48:06.960 be playing some heavy duty opponents now, the RMB twelve action, and you 1357 01:48:08.000 --> 01:48:12.359 know there may be lights out for these guys right now. Kansas, Oklahoma. 1358 01:48:12.560 --> 01:48:15.039 I mean, you've got some big time schools coming to play. It'll 1359 01:48:15.039 --> 01:48:18.199 make them better in the long run. But right now, I don't see 1360 01:48:18.199 --> 01:48:23.039 antaa tournament in the headlights for the UC backheads. For the people that always 1361 01:48:23.039 --> 01:48:27.680 say wait till next year, It's almost next year. What about our Cincinnati 1362 01:48:27.720 --> 01:48:31.039 Reds in twenty twenty four? Andy, You know what, between FC Cincinnati 1363 01:48:31.079 --> 01:48:34.960 and the Cincinnati Reds, those two teams may have the best chance of success 1364 01:48:35.159 --> 01:48:40.439 in the next year. Really so, so you know, I think this 1365 01:48:40.560 --> 01:48:44.159 city is a better city when the teams win. I think everybody's upbeat. 1366 01:48:44.199 --> 01:48:47.520 Everybody's no seriously, I think the people are It's a funny thing. You 1367 01:48:47.520 --> 01:48:51.359 took to a psychiatrists probably tell you. I think the people they work better, 1368 01:48:51.600 --> 01:48:56.800 they get along better, they're not bitter, there's no angst. Well 1369 01:48:57.079 --> 01:49:00.520 they have something, they have, something uncommon to each other. It's all 1370 01:49:00.560 --> 01:49:03.960 about right and there's a lot of pride, a lot of community prior our 1371 01:49:04.079 --> 01:49:08.760 team. Yeah, and they're wearing If you saw last Sunday, even though 1372 01:49:08.760 --> 01:49:12.159 the Bengals were in Pittsburgh, walk around town, everybody's wearing Bengals gear, 1373 01:49:12.439 --> 01:49:15.520 hoodies and sweatshirts and T shirts and ads. I mean, there's a lot 1374 01:49:15.520 --> 01:49:18.199 of pride there and I think it'll continue now. It will happen again on 1375 01:49:18.319 --> 01:49:21.920 Monday on New Year's Day. If they beat Kansas City on New Year's Eve, 1376 01:49:23.119 --> 01:49:25.439 That's what it's all about. Gotta win, just got to win. 1377 01:49:25.560 --> 01:49:29.239 We know the Chiefs are my team. Actually, so I didn't want to 1378 01:49:29.479 --> 01:49:31.119 that and I have not been. I know, want people to hate you 1379 01:49:31.119 --> 01:49:34.359 anymore than they do, I know exactly. I don't know how it could 1380 01:49:34.359 --> 01:49:41.000 exacerbate that, that that emotion against me. But I'm trying. I am 1381 01:49:41.039 --> 01:49:45.600 really seriously trying. I'm looking forward. I'm looking forward to the new year, 1382 01:49:45.680 --> 01:49:48.399 Andy, just because of all the wonderful conversations you and I will have 1383 01:49:49.039 --> 01:49:54.760 on ensuing night caps in twenty twenty four. Are you on board for more 1384 01:49:54.840 --> 01:49:57.840 bad I want to say this, I want to publicly say this. I 1385 01:49:57.880 --> 01:50:00.399 do appreciate this. It was a time I thought you'd have a like me, 1386 01:50:00.720 --> 01:50:03.359 and I remember I remember like It was yesterday. I was doing sports 1387 01:50:03.359 --> 01:50:09.520 talk at night and I was talking about John Cheney and Bob Huggins may and 1388 01:50:09.800 --> 01:50:12.880 may he rest in peace, and not Bob Huggins, but John Cheney. 1389 01:50:12.880 --> 01:50:17.279 And and you called up on the hotline and you said something terrible about John 1390 01:50:17.359 --> 01:50:20.319 Cheney. I mean it was bad, and I went back at you. 1391 01:50:20.520 --> 01:50:25.159 And when they were playing Temple obviously, and from that day on, I 1392 01:50:25.199 --> 01:50:27.680 just said this, that doesn't like me. And I used to see you 1393 01:50:27.720 --> 01:50:30.039 in the hallway and I just kind of had that feeling. And now all 1394 01:50:30.079 --> 01:50:33.199 of a sudden, I hate to say, what kind of buds almost? 1395 01:50:33.319 --> 01:50:38.279 I mean not, you know, Andy, it doesn't It doesn't help when 1396 01:50:38.319 --> 01:50:43.199 you're visiting after you had left full time at seven hundred WLW, but you 1397 01:50:43.199 --> 01:50:45.760 were visiting. You were on with Willie or something. And I see you 1398 01:50:45.800 --> 01:50:49.439 in the newsroom in our old studios here in this building of Montgomery, and 1399 01:50:49.479 --> 01:50:53.159 I see you, and you look at me, and the first thing you 1400 01:50:53.199 --> 01:50:56.760 say to me, Andy is Gary, Jeff, you don't age well, 1401 01:50:56.840 --> 01:50:59.960 do you. It's like that was not the nicest thing for you to say, 1402 01:51:00.079 --> 01:51:03.279 and right, and I take it back, but I do want to 1403 01:51:03.279 --> 01:51:08.000 say this public. I appreciate the time that you've given me, the friendship 1404 01:51:08.039 --> 01:51:11.319 that we've kind of developed over the last year or so, and being on 1405 01:51:11.359 --> 01:51:14.840 your show. And I wont to wish everybody that's in the sound of my 1406 01:51:14.920 --> 01:51:17.840 voice a very happy and healthy new year, I mean, prosperous. Hopefully, 1407 01:51:18.000 --> 01:51:20.880 hopefully the interest rates and people who will go down so we could have 1408 01:51:20.920 --> 01:51:24.760 a little more breathing room. I just hope everything is good. I really 1409 01:51:24.760 --> 01:51:28.520 do hope the wars stop. Let's have a little peace, peace and quiet, 1410 01:51:28.880 --> 01:51:30.399 and that everybody at seven hundred, you know, God bless you, 1411 01:51:30.439 --> 01:51:33.880 and I appreciate them even loving me through the door to be on the airways 1412 01:51:33.880 --> 01:51:36.560 with you. I really do well. Andy, just remember peace on Earth, 1413 01:51:36.600 --> 01:51:41.159 And I talked with somebody about this actually yesterday at Kroger when I was 1414 01:51:41.199 --> 01:51:45.199 shopping. Peace on Earth and goodwill towards men has to start right, has 1415 01:51:45.239 --> 01:51:48.479 to start with us. You can't expect anybody else to do it. So 1416 01:51:48.760 --> 01:51:54.000 you and I are Earth the shining gleaming examples of how people should ask. 1417 01:51:54.239 --> 01:51:58.279 Let's lead away, Let's lead the way.
