First part of your Saturday has some scattered showers lingering around, but not much
of an issue, especially since the majority of your day is going to be
dry with a decent amount of sunshine in the afternoon. His tempters top out
close to seventy degrees Tonight, it will be a little chillier tempters dropped down
to the upper forties before you warm up and see sunny skies for your Sunday
topping out in the upper seventies. From your severe weather station, I'm nine

neither burn it down. She was born Sherylyn Sarcasia in May of nineteen forty
six in El Central, California. Just known as Share to all of us
all these years later. Extremely talented performer, whether it was singing or acting
or right, and as far as her personal life and her political beliefs,
she's still just Share to me. Remember as a kid watching the Sonny and
Share comedy hour, her just dead panning Sonny Bono into almost non existence.
It's interesting to note that both of the men who Share was betrothed to are
both dead and she's still alive. A cautionary tale. It is Saturday,
May twenty twenty three before we look at to look back at significant events and
people tied to this particular data in history, including but not limited to these.
Eighteen sixty two, President Lincoln signed the Homestead Act, which was intended
to incurred settlements west of the Mississippi River by making federal land available for farming.
This Saturday Evening Post published its first ever Norman Rockwell cover, showing a
scowling boy dressed in his Sunday best. The year was nineteen sixteen. Eleven
years later, Charles Lindbergh took off from Roosevelt Field in Long Island, New
York, aboard the Spirit of Saint Louis on his historic solo flight to France.
And I guess they tied it out this way on purpose, because just
five years later, Amelia Earhart took off from Newfoundland to become the first woman
to fly solo across the Atlantic. Because of weather equipment problems, Earhart went
down in Northern Ireland instead of the intended destination of France. Shang Kai Shack
inaugurated as the first President of the Republic of China be Taiwan. Nineteen forty
eight was the year. Eleven years later on this date, nearly five thousand
Japanese Americains had their US citizenship restored after choosing to renounce them during World War
two, a white mob attacked a bus load of Freedom writers in Montgomery,
Alabama. This state nineteen sixty one. Nineteen sixty nine, US and South
Vietnamese fortress captured eight Ba Mountain, referred to as Hamburger Hill by the Americans.
It's one of the bloodiest battles of the Vietnam War. Radio Marti began
broadcasting from Cuba or into Cuba. Cuba responded by attempting to jam the signal.
The year was nineteen eighty five, during the Ronald Reagan administration. Oh,
I missed one at the top. This was okay, this is not
to me a red letter day. Maybe to you. May twentieth, nineteen
fifty six to the United States exploded the first airborne hydrogen bomb over their Bikinia
toll in the Pacific. Famous folks celebrating birthdays today besides Sherilyn sakes I,

undue pressure when I say this, but no no, the the admiral's shoes
are are big. They're they're fittingly their boats for an admiral. So let's
start with Reds. Last night. Absolutely yeah, the the energy was electric
down at Great American ballparker last night with the Reds debuting their City Connect uniforms.
I don't know how you feel about the uniforms. I know it's been
a it's been a heated debate between whether or not the uniforms came out.
You know what, Like most fans, I just care whether they win or
not exactly, and they did not least no, uh, six to two
that the Reds fell sixty two of the Yankees Ben Lively on the mountain was
excellent, but obviously it was not enough for our Red Legs. David Bell
was even ejected at the bottom of the fifth YEP. I saw that Um
and the the person who in his stead was managing, I forget who it
was. UM pulled Lively out I think a bat or two early, and
that was displayed when the reliever gave up a two one shot and the Reds
were back off on the snide again. So anyway, today they're back at
a Great American Ballpark from an afternoon game here on the Big One today.
Yes, back here on the Big One. Hopefully that rain has h has

dollar. They look big with my blocks on my ash, I see,

wise choice I have. I have got about ten cans of sugar free root
beer in the backseat of my car that I bought thinking that because I love
root beer and I'm not supposed to have the sugar. So I found sugar
free root beer and it's actually very very tasty. So you drink it?

time. All right, to doctor Mark and Christine. I caught him on
the job and a woman said he wasn't there, And I said for having

Doctor Mark, Christine come over and business. I have no telephone service that's
dependable right now? Well, what are you calling? What are you calling
me on, Lynette? If you don't have any telephone service? Yeah,
but it stops in the middle of it. Oh okay, so right you're
talking about doctor doctor Mark Sander and his wife Christine. Yeah, they're good
people. If they're listening. Huh. If they're listening, you've put out
the bad signal for them. What else did you want to say, Babe?

Our friend Dave from Dayton. Have you talked to him recently? Not
recently? He wanted. He wanted me to ask, yes, if you
ever get upset enough to cuss? Do you ever swear like a sailor?
I think it's been a while. One time a customer when I was working
at Low meet me mad, and I had to go back and calm down
a little bit. I think a couple of times at Lows. So you
cursed. You cursed under your breath, well not really, I cursed outside.
You cursed out loud, but not in front of the customer. Right
you went away? No, you did the right thing. Well, I
was just and I had a woman when I was young, in my twenties
that said she was my aunt, even though she really wasn't my aunt.
And she told me, she told me that an angry dick is a dangerous
dick, and you should always try to make your dick happy. Dick.
Are you happy? Yes, wonderful? Are you? We're gonna be working

of hours. There's a little damn session to ask you a question. Yeah,
real quick, we've been worried about Mick. Did you ever see him
anymore? No, I've not seen Mick. I saw Mick and May maybe
six months ago at the bank at Kroger of all places, but I've not
seen them since. So we will pray that Mick and May are okay.

Elliott Rearing who was not here. Yes, keep up, I mean do
I need to do I need to send you some extra information, you know,

it's a pertinent question. Okay, especially considering this morning it's kind of rainy,
This would this would be a nightmare. Why did the homeowner have to
call the fire department to get his dog off of the house because the dog
thought he was a roofer? Oh? Rufer, Rufer. I like that.
I like that. I knew you would. Nobody else did, Nobody
else did, but I knew you would, Yes, Dave, Okay,
never when we were kids and we used to like getting tires, you know,
and like roll down the hills and stuff that I never never did that.
But okay, I've never done. Anyway, it was a good year.
It was a good year. Yeah. And Jeff, what do you

You were supposed to start with the least amount of humor you have and build
up to a great joke for the third joke. And three is always the
magic numbers. So what else have you got for me? And it better
damn well be good? Uh see, Uh, this is this is what
I tried to tell people when they asked me about Dave from Harrison. I
said, you remember those commercials with the egg frying in the pan, And
they'd say, well, it's not frying. You've just put it in the
pan and it's there just kind of spreading out. This is your brain and

sixties. In fact, they we're gonna use this family as the TV family,
but things didn't work out. A mom and her kids in a band
have a birthday to Susan Cowsills today the wood drive and you keep all right,
you're the same where the air is fine, the steet smelling in the
countryside gritty and you see that deal. Just take certainly is seene you should
make with your little ron Susan Cowsill, whose birthday it is today as sixty
four, and she is the At the time they were recording this and their
other hits, she was the tiniest Cowshill in their version of the song hair.
She's the one that screams and spaghetti anyway into the memory banks and more
of that on Rock and Roll Archaeology this morning at seven thirty five with the
music professor jim La Barbara and Walk about seventeen minutes after the hour, let's
talk to our friend old Radio Rick Washburn. Good morning, Old Radio Rick
Martin, Gary Kiff, you know and spaghetti was the legacy I always wanted
to build for myself. Didn't happen. You know, I think they.
I have heard them in other venues recently. Two members of the cow Sills.
There's one that's actually still touring as the cow Sials. And then little
Susan, who is not so little anymore as I just mentioned, has done
some spot DJ work on various outlets and platforms and has nothing but great memories
of a childhood filled with music and family. So and you can't really fault
that. No, not at all. And it's not a common thing unfortunately
either. No, No, as far he's having good memories of such a
thing. Yeah, talked to talk to Danny Bonaducci. That's exactly who it
was, part of the Fake cow Shials known as the Partridge Family on TV.
Anyway, So how are we? How are we being received this morning?
What are you receiving us on? And give me the dimensions? Okay,
well you're coming in four by three, so pretty out and clarity is
not so great, but not too surprising on this one. This is an
odd radio because it's newer than what I typically work on. It's a nineteen
sixty five Commodore Stereomatic Model seven forty four eight no relation to the Commodore Computer
Company, was actually imported from Japan by the Commodore Import Company of Brooklyn,
New York. Or the Commodore is from Tuskegee, Alabama, including Lionel Ritchie.
It would have sounded better if that were to say. And in this
particular case, the reason I loved this radio is because it is and understandably
it may be just a matter of bad translation since it came from Japan in
nineteen sixty five, but it is just a very impressive, decent sounding radio
full of false claims. For example, it says wooden case. Well,
okay, that's as long as you believe that your country squire in eighteen seventy
three, mom station wagon was made of wood. Also, no, it's
it's shelf paper. Come on, um. The next thing that threw me
threw me off through everyone else's solid state. Now, Gary Jeff, most
of us are old enough to know what solid state means. No tubes all
transistors. Too bad, this thing has seven tubes and no transistors. That
no, wait, that's pretty rare for a nineteen sixty five radio, is
it? Is it to not have not. Not only is it rare for
nineteen sixty five, but it's very rare for coming out of Japan because after
twent World War two, the Britain and you know, several countries helped them
retool, and of course they retooled with the most modern technology, and that's
where the sony trintron television that was superior to anything else in the market came
from, because you know, why start over with tubes we invented excuse me,
the Aliens landed nineteen forty eight, right exactly. No, No,
no actual wooden case, not solid state, in fact, just the opposite
of solid state. What was the other? What was the other? Lot
of stereomatic sound? Now that the radio has a speaker on either side of
the dial and on the side of the cabinet, on both sides, but
they're all wired together. It's not stereo, just four speakers pointing the same
thing. It's not left and right. It's just monots of lots of ways
to hear monol radio exactly. But I will say it does sound good,
especially on local stations, and it is extremely well built. I give them
that, all right, So you have brought this thing or you're bringing it
back to life. You said four by three. Is there any chance that
this commodore stereomatic from nineteen sixty five Japan is ever going to be five by
five? That's my question. If with an external antenna it does just fine,
but left to its own resources, it's yeah, it's not bad fantastic.
Then you know it's just like one of those little shirt pocket am radios.
You're not going to get a five by five out of it, no
matter what you do, non point either, No, exactly. Any chance
we'll see you anytime in our direct area, There is certainly a chance.
I just don't have the dates figured out yet. And but the pile to
go in the van is ever growing, and I won't forget the lamp this
time, I promise. All Right, man, have a great weekend.
Old Radio Rick at gmail dot com if you want to get in touch with
Rick Washburn. He is a master working on and refurbishing and bringing back to
life these lovely antique radios, even from nineteen sixty five Japan. My doctor
told me I should start swimming last for exercise, but I found out he
got his medical degree in Granada wherever that is, so instead I head to
the pool and listened to Scott Sloan show. Full side listening is perfect for
my show. Work on your tan while we take on the important stuff and
have a little fun doing it. It's pretty funny and very smart. You

Good Morning, Gary, Jeff. The Reds were electric down at Great American
Ballpark last night. However, it wasn't quite enough. Ben Lively was excellent
on the mound, but the Reds fell to the Yankees six to two.
On the debut of the City Necked Uniforms on Fireworks Friday, I can't believe
it. David Bell was ejected at the bottom of the fifth. The Reds
and Yankees get it at it tonight here on seven first pitch at four ten.
Our coverage starts at three ten, and I know where you're gonna be
tonight. It's a sellout at TQL Stadium. Number one FC faces off the
rival number five Columbus at seventh third. No, I'm not. I'm not
a huge soccer fan, although more and more and Cincinnatians are. They are
proving to be FC Cincinnati fans, and uh, it's it's delightful to see
at least, you know, one franchise outside of the Bengals that is flourishing
in this town. Both their one loss record and their attendance records. It's
promising, it really is. Yeah, I don't know, did you did
you have any comment or I know a lot of people had comments about the
buffed up Joe Burrow Look, oh you know the post now, No,
I mean with the headband on, and he does look like he's beefed up
quite a bit. If if you, if you look at these side by
side comparisons from say, last year at this time night and day to now,
I mean he looks like a fifteen year old kid compared to this man
child who was erupted at least in photos. And you know that that may
help him keep on his feet a little bit better. We need seven w
headbands, that's what we need. You'd you'd look smashing in one of those.
Alex Egan this morning coming up on six twenty seven and a news or
what's passing for news break, they're already talking elections, the presidential election,
which happens in November of next year. There comes up a certain point in
your life when you realize, no matter who the president is, there's going
to eat you alive if you're just a common person like you or me.
So you know what, I know, the primaries, especially on the Republican
side, for the federal presidential election, are going to be info already in
focus, and three of the candidates haven't even declared yet that they're going to
run against Donald Trump on the Republican side. I really don't want to hear
about it until October of twenty four. I'm serious. I am so over
politics and lifetime politicians. It was never intended to be something that you did
for a living, for life citizen lawmakers, Where are they sadly forgotten?
In our day? And age six twenty eight at seven WLW this Memorial Day,

were going to be able to achieve. We got here because we worked together
and had each other's backs. In America, we have the privilege of being
a diverse society made up of people from all kinds of backgrounds, and that's
a big part of what makes this country said, it's a great place to
live. When we put us at our differences and work together, there is
no challenge too great to overcome. This message is brought to you by the
US Air Force News, Traffic and Weather News Radio seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati.
There's still no debt ceiling deal. With the six thirty report, I'm
Sandy Collins breaking now. While the White House says President Biden is hoping for
an agreement Candy Reach to avoid defaulting on the nation's bills, he is cutting
his overseas trip short to revitalize the talks between his party and the GOP to
raise the debt ceiling. ABC's Chuck Sieberson tells us where Washington is this weekend.
Congress must raise the jet ceiling to pay the nation's existing bills, money
that's already been spent. After talk stalled Friday afternoon, negotiators for the GOP
and the White House met again for about ninety minutes Friday night. Let's say
they ended the closed door meeting with no progress and no set plans for the
next meeting. Two sources familiar with the talks tell ABC News a key sticking
point significant cuts to federal spending. Now, the consequences could be dire if
these lawmakers missed the deadline. Troops could go unpaid, Social Security payments could
be delayed for seniors. The stock market would likely plunge along with people's four
oh one k's interest rates would soar, and nearly eight million people could lose
their jobs. Now, the latest traffic and weather together. The roads are
wet across the whole region right now. We're blanketed with rain. We have
no accidents right now. People are driving a little slower. Keep those headlights
on now. The latest forecast from the Train Heating and Cooling Weather Center on

from Louisville all the way up to Columbus and north of Cincinnati as well.
Right now in the tri State, we're looking at sixty one degrees. His

as Cincinnati officers sentence for last month's arrest. Cincinnati Police officer Justin Shields was
pulled over on Interstate two seventy five in Claremont County early in the morning April
fourteenth, and was initially charged with driving under the influence, with that charge
amended to physical control while under the influence, which Shields played guilty too.
His sentence will require him to complete a three day Ohio driver intervention program,
perform sixteen hours of community service, pay a three hundred fifty dollars fine,
and can only drive to work, treatment and to get groceries on Sundays for

in this. I want to we want to give a shout out to Jay

Our annual heritage festival which we have every August year in Ripley. Yes,
and Jay, August the twenty six, that's a Saturday at Brookies.
It's the wet T shirt contest. This is just for Ja Jay Weaver.
Anybody else but Jay needs to know this. Okay. We gotta get that
up and I will not be in it. All right. So the Heritage
Festival, which is of course about the fine heritage of this community in Brown
County known as Ripley, Ohio, and the great tradition of tobacco. You
know, Burley Tobacco was king and h and Burley Burley Tobacco was king and
this was what powered the whole area. So how do wet T shirts and
the Heritage Festival, why do they have anything in common? I'm going to
defer this question to Doug Bonson, all right. I moved here in nineteen
and this was going on way back before that time. Well, and don't
defer. You don't have any answer. I mean, you're you're an educator
by trade. This is what by by training, you're an educator. So
educate me on the Heritage Festival and the relevance of a wet T shirt contest
at the Is it because the farmers, the tobacco farmers, when they were
out working their crops working their fields often wore wife beater T shirts and were
soaked to the bone, and some of them, because of excess breasts breakfast,
had man boobs. Is this where this came from? As they were
sweating in the fields. That's that's the only correlation I can come up with.
Well, you know, back in the in the datas with an old
farmer's bar, so that could be true. The things they think up,
you know, to do. We'll go with what you said. Yeah,
all right, any any other quick reports, whether Sherry or anything. We've

Good morning, Steven, how are you? Good morning Gary. Jeff.
By the way, I was a little surprised there when you played the cow
Sills. They've gone woke. I don't know if you knew this. They've
done a remake of Indian Lake. It's cale Guardian Lake does quite have the
same sound. But you know, I thought, as I made that particular
song selection, I could have played a number of I said, you know,
somebody's going to think this is incredibly politically correct, incorrect, and that
I'm demeaning native or indigenous peoples. No, it's just people are just a
fun song. Should be aware that Indian Lake is up there off seventy five
ago thirty three from Columbus. There's an Indian Lake in almost every state.
My old home where I graduated from high school in Hendersonville, Tennessee, one
of the main drags where people live in shop is called Indian Lake drives.
So yes, some very very well spect out on the Indian lakes of the
world. And there's a Redskins nickname for a lot of high schools on Indian
reservations. Ladies in jail, thank you. Speaking of diversity, equity and
inclusion, where d EI goes to d I E? Ladies and gentlemen,
hasn't anybody ever thought about this? The Professional Golf Association playing their international tournament
in Rochester, New York this week. There is no handicap system in pro
golf, ladies and gentlemen. No, no, you don't get a handicap.
You don't get strokes because of the color of your skin or any other
factor. How then, is pro golf doing without d EI? Is it
all white people? Well not really. The number one player of the world
right now is John rom of Spain. He's Hispanic. Frequently number two Colin
Mark, Howie Marikawa excuse me. Japanese Americans. One of my favorites.
He's a neighbor up here of mine. Jason Day Now he just won the
Byron Nelson Attorney this month. He's Australian and part Aborigine Native Australian, lives
in Westerville, Ohio. One of my favorites. Also, Harold Varner the
third, who is African American born in Canton, Ohio. By the way,
he is number thirty five in the world. Ricky Fowler, you can't
beat this one. He's Caucasian, American, Indian and Japanese. His full
name is Ricky Utaka Fowler. He's in the top fifty. Xander Shafley French
German, Taiwanese American. Tony Fenwe another one of my favorites. Tongan and
Samoan. Amazing, he's not playing football. He's ranked number twelve in the
nation. Mexican American Abraham Answer, he has dual citizenship. He's ranked thirty
first in the world. And here's an up and comer. I love this
guy. Sahath Segala, Indian American, twenty fifth in the world. Sorry,
all men or all women that's right. There are no trans and maybe
we can change that when we decide where the trans will play on which teas.
By the way, women, you want to talk about women. The
number one in the world is a well, at least whiteis They always sneak
in there. But numbers two through six are either Asian or Asian American.
And I forgot to mention Hadeki matsu Yama, Japanese. He won the twenty
twenty one Masters tournament. Doesn't speak a bit of English and we don't care.
Obvious solution. Oh oh, I forgot to mention Bryson to Shambo.
I was going to mention him. He apparently, I think, is leading
the PGA tournament up there in Rochester. As of yesterday he was a stroke
out or two strokes out of first place. It must be the frost global
warming up there. The part of the first round was wiped out because of
Frost. I like to call Bryson de Shambo Frenchy. You know you got
a name like Bryson, You know you gotta have a nickname. Interesting thing.
Two interesting things about him. Number one he was a physics major,
okay, all right? And number two, Frenchy demands that when he plays
at a tournament all the flags be white flags. That's kind of interesting,
Okay, and it didn't go over Okay, obvious solution. Obvious solution to
the guys playing on girls teams issue. I don't think I've ever mentioned this
an affirmative action and program for the NBA, the NFL, and the NHL.
Here it is. I'm going woke. Half of your players have to
be born women. Let's make it fair. Why hasn't any conservatives suggested what's
good for the goose is good for the gander. Isn't that right? Would
you agree with that? Gary? Absolutely? And finally, I was a
little discombobulated today when when you were talking to Olonnette about her bushy tail.
You know, you've been married several times and you have a wonderful wife right
now. Christ the two point, Oh, I'm not sure you want to
be talking about another woman's bushy tale. That's just a suggestion. I've been
married fifty six years to the same woman and it'll probably end soon. She'll
either kill me or we'll get divorced. But you know, you know,
just a buddy, that's just a buddy talking. Okay, Yeah, Okay,
that's all I've got. Now you have other stuff, but you have
other stuff too. No, you know, I was I was fine.
I was just listening to The Funny thing is took the day off from slinging
drinks for Hillbillies and others yesterday at the bar, just because I needed a
break, and the wife and I watched the entire most of the entire second
round of that PGA Championship you were referring to. And it has become really
our favorite, our favorite spectators sport at home when we're there. I don't
know if it's because I'm old and just like to fall asleep in the chair
to golf like my dad did, uh, or if it's the fact that
we just enjoyed the level of skill and the competition. These these women and
these men on their own, of their own accord, are phenomenally uh,
meticulous athletes. And Bryson de Shambo you had talked about his degree in physics.
Uh, that was the That was the joke, because before every shot
he would be examining, uh you know, calculations and equations trying to figure
out where the ball was supposed to go next. But we find it all
very very entertaining. And you don't need WOKE, you don't need d EI,
you don't need ESG to enjoy the PGA. And it is a nice
sanctuary from the craziness that is pervading everywhere in our society right now. But
thanks for bringing that up. Steve from Etna, Ohio, and our friend
Ray from Loveland. Ray, are you there? Yes, Yes, good
morning, you're there and you're on the air. Oh my gosh, good
morning about that. I saw it, I saw it flashing in and I
just grabbed it for Alex Good. So what's on your mind in a minute,
brother. But Jim Brown, the late great Jim Brown, you know,
in by far the best running back period in NFL. Just a few
things I did a little brushing up on Jim Brown last night. Amazing.
This man averaged one hundred yards per game his entire nine year career. Indeed,
he averaged over five yards per carry his entire career. He played nine
seasons, never ever missed a game, led the league in rushing eight out
of nine years. That is amazing, just amazing. Plus plus, he
was first team All American lacrosse at Syracuse, where he went to college.
He also lettered in track and basketball at Syracuse. He could have done any
of those sports and excelled. And Jim Brown is maybe what Bo Jackson could
have been without the knee injury. And he certainly was the Jim Thorpe of
that era as far as just a multi talented, multidimensional athlete. Nobody better
than Jim Brown. You're right walks away at twenty nine NFL champion, and
godspeed to Jim Brown, and godspeed to you, my brother. God bless
you, Amen, thank you, sir, break for whatever was passing for

you stick with clear skies and tempters dropping down to the upper forties before
you warm back up to the upper seventies on your Sunday with lots of sunshine
from your severe weather station. I'm nine first Morning Meteorologist Cameron Harden on news
Radio seven hundred WLW rain and sixty one degrees in Cincinnati. I'm Sandy Collins.
Next update at seven thirty on news Radio seven hundred WLW News twenty four
hours a day. He was a Radio seven hundred WLW into another hour of
the Saturday morning edition. First Saturday, May twenty, twenty twenty three.
How you doing I'm Gary, Jeff Walker, you are you, and that
is perfectly fine with me. Great to be with you on what's shaping up
to be a pretty nice weather weekend if we just get past this rain this
morning, nice stuff ahead. And it is time for our weekly check with
a real environmental engineer, Steve Schulte, who says about the environment, about
our ecosystem, about the Earth as it is today in the twenty first century,
it's not getting worse. It's doing this instead, well except except when
we pretend it's getting worse and we do dramatic things to alter the echosystem and
wind up screwing everything up, as is going on well really all over the
world right now. But to highlight one of those things once against Steve Shilty,
good morning, how are you doing, my friend? Good morning,
Gary, Jeff better than I deserve and my person The Jim Brown and his
Family one of the best war movies I love, and the Dirty Dozen,
Dirty Dozen. It was great. Unfortunately he got killed in that. His
character got killed in that, right, but obviously he lived for years on
Jim Brown. Jim Brown died at the age my dad is almost eighty seven.
Jim Brown died at eighty seven had a long, very very productive life
in the civil rights movie, in movies and obviously in the NFL. But
you want to talk about these wind farms in Great Britain. This comes from
the Heartland dot org. The Weekly Climate updated number four hundred and seventies is
a couple of weeks ago headline offshore wind projects are slaughtering seabirds and a recent
study published in the peer review journal Nature Scientific Reports on what's called offshore wind
projects. The study by a team of researchers at universities and research institutes in
Germany found that populations of a group of red throated loons known as divers.
I've seen these birds declined by ninety four percent Let's repeat ninety four percent within
a six tenth of a mile from these offshore wind So the population of this
particular bird was almost completely eliminated by the damn wind turb yep. The birds
problem populations were affected even further out from the project, with a decline of
fifty two about six miles uh from the turbans and Gary Jeff if one of
these lounds could have been could be proved to be killed by let's say a
nuclear power plant, or a coal power plant or a natural gas power plant.
What would you expect, You know, there would be protests at the
gates, you know, people laying down at the entrance to stop trucks and
whatnot. People people throwing fa fake loon, the protesters, idiot protesters throwing
fake loon blood on the gates of a coal fired power plant. Or the
fact of the matter is wind turbans and you and I have discussed this time
and time again, Steve, are not energy efficient. Whatso ever, if
the wind doesn't blow, there's no production, and they are only contribute just
a very infinitesimal piece of the pie when it comes to providing energy anywhere.
And they are ecologically destructive as hell. Ye. And another one this comes
from this is not about the birds. Randing just comes from the CEA two
coalition, the newsletter of May eighteenth at the CO two Coalition dot org.
I know you're familiar with those headline. And again something that I'm sure I
don't remember hearing this. This is only a couple of days ago, Babe.
It's cold outside. Millions of people in the northeastern United States and eastern
Canada woke up on May eighteenth, but two days ago to record cold temperatures
that dip to less than thirty degrees fahrenheit. Yeah. Well, if now,
if we were at record temperature for May eighteen all over the news,
and you and I and our excelace would be playing for it, Well,
just don't breathe quite as much, Steve. Everything will be just fine.
Thank you, sir, and God bless you have a fantastic weekend. We
move along in. Our friend Rocco is on location in California. We'll talk
to him next. No, that's amazing. A fugitive facing a murder charge
kidnapped to Kansas couple in two thousand and nine. The couple escapes when the
kidnapper fell asleep. He then sued the couple for breach of contract. His
case was dismissed. No, that's just as amazing. Are Eddie and Rocky?

big um a trifecta race. It's called so, there's a sprint, there's
a beast it's called and I don't know if you know what the Spartan Race
is, but it's I do not, I do not. Oh, it's
a really really tough it's the toughest obstacle course a race in the world actually,
and get these people are absolutely insane and they train really really hard and
so um you have to go up tills through you know, under bob wire,
you have to climb mountains and and and uh and ropes and you have
to do like the monkey ball kind of things and and you get to traverse
um uh basically rocks. That sounds that sounds to me like a hard day
at the bar. It's a very bar. Yes, yes, yes,
absolutely, but there's uh yeah, it's it's basically across between American Ninja,
UM, the iron Man and just insanity. Yeah, it's really all of
it. Now, when is this When is this race? This race isn't
for a couple more weeks, right, June tenth and eleventh? Is that
when it happens. Yes, So we have one coming to Cincinnati, uh,

I'll be there also um at the Spartan Plus a recovery tent. So that's
what I'm gonna be doing on about fourteen different weekends across the year. And
uh and a recovery because for your listeners, a recovery is actually more important
now if you're training for these really hard races like even a marathons or iron
Man or the Spartan Race. A recovery when you use a pem meth use
the coal parn and that's what we have here at Spartan Plus. Uh.
You know, a recovery tent. So we have all the different immodalities that
you get at train with Rocco you'll see at the Spartan Race. And right
now you're in Big Bear, California for the Spartan Race there this weekend in
the the Recovery ten. Now I have another question real quickly. Does this
make you since you're participating in all of these spartan races across the country,
including the one that's a scheduled for the Cincinnati area June tenth and eleventh in
Lawrenceburg, does this make you instantly as spartan racist. Yes, yes,
it does, absolutely it does. It does, and I'll wear that.

I'm sure as soon as you get really in the groove and comfortable with this

I mean, you know, Elliott's a sports guy in the fact that
he was a degenerate gambler on sports. But but I mean, do you
have any idea why this? You know, I blame I blame Danny Gleeson.
I'm I'm just a room over from Danny, so I think that it
might be a Danny Park. Well that's refreshing because most people blame Dave Keaton.
That's true, they usually do. So. Red's not victorious in their

Yeah. Right time Now for the Tom Davis Diaries. I like to refer
to these as they with weird news stories from around the United States and around
the globe. Here is the aforementioned Tom Davis. Good morning, Gary,
Jeff. This week, a cop in Florida is in big trouble for buying
fake eyelashes with a dead man's credit card. Officer Diane Farbarrow was on the
scene of a nine one one call about a heart attack and the mantha scene
died, so she whipped out her phone and she took a picture of his
credit card number. She used it for lashes, hotels, and even a
lunch at Wendy's. She was busted when the guy's wife notice charges were showing
up. The detectives from her own department busted her. Meanwhile, a teenager
from Australia got fine sixty five dollars for wearing extra clothes on a flight.
Adriana Ocampo had a bag that was overweight, so she thought of a clever
way to board without paying a fee for being over the limit. She put
on thirteen pounds of clothes and then tried to get on the plane. The
authorities on site didn't think it was all that clever. They let her board,
but they did find her the sixty five dollars anyway. Keith Haberfield from
Margate, Florida under arrest after a dining dash at Windy's. He was there
around two o'clock in the morning, having breakfast with his friends before walking out

I'm Sandy Collins. Next update at eight on NewsRadio seven hundred WLW News
twenty four hours a day. News Radio seven hundred WLW. He was born
on this day in nine teen forty four May twenty He passed December twenty second
of twenty fourteen, oddly enough, on the respective birthday of mine and Jim
LaVarne as a music professor who joins us now for a session of rock and
roll archaeology. He wooed and wild the crowd at wood stud with his on
stage performance and his weird gyrations. We begin rock and Roll Archaeology with Joe
Cocker on seven lw what what you do if by saying out of dune?
What do you stand up? On? Wild cut? On lend me all
ease? Then sing you a song? I will try not to sing out
of key? I sound like what do I do with my love? As
a war? Why to be loan? How do I feel like on the
day I'm trying to set out a new something unbelievable. Let's bring in the
prop Jim Lebarbara, music professor. How are you doing? Remembering Joe Cocker
on what would have been his birthday today? Uh, that's such a that's
such an incredible performance. If you watched the video of him at Woodstock doing
that, it's just amazing that he can even stand up after exerting all that
energy anyway, once you got for us, Jim, I gotta tell you
that was one of the disconcerts, one of the first concerts I took my
daughter Shelby to, And I wouldn't tell you if you were sitting in the
first three rows you got sprayed when he sang he just sprayed everybody because one
of those guys they thought they sprayed people. What a great version of that
song. The history of the song, of course, was written for Ringo
for the album They Were Coming, and Paul and John originally called this bad
Finger Boogie, and there was the inspiration for the band Bad Finger later their
name, and John composed the melody on a piano with his middle finger because
his fourth finger was broken. So that's the story behind that song. Now,
Joe Cocker's version radical Arrangement you heard from the original influenced greatly BIOWETHA Franklin,
Ray Charles, his background soward tempo than the original, Jimmy Page on
guitar, and just an incredible version. And Paul McCartney, who first heard
it said, man, he listened to us that it was just mind blowing,
totally turned this song into a social anthem, and I'm grateful for him
for doing that, so totally different. But just is this song and of
course then the sing song for the sole reason show the Wonder Years and yeah,
it was on the documentary Woodstock and then two weeks later at the Isle
of Right festival and number one record in England here in the market. Made
the charts, but didn't make the big pop music well you know. And
so that's the thing that we need to note, Jim, is that sometimes
songs when they were released, they don't go to number one, and they
don't have a high chart position, but they have a longer shelf life than
a lot of songs that do go to number one, don't you agree?
Absolutely all right? So up next in our list is what you described and
has been described by others as the very first rock and roll record. Tell
me about this. Yeah, this is a big debate now, but in
nineteen ninety one, after a great deal of debate, the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame recognized this is the first rock and roll song ever recorded.
I turn it was in jail at the time for the recognition of the honor
for cocaine possessions. So just thought were accepted on his behalf. Now this
song I was hitting with Sam Phillips and Sun Records and he played this song
for me and he said, this is the first roper world record. This
was years and years ago. It became a number one record this week in
nineteen fifty one. It like hung around forever in the rhythm and blues didn't
cross over into the pop field. This is song done on the record.
It says Jackie Branston and his Delta Cats. It was really Turner and his
kings of rhythm. And what they did was they just borrowed. They borrowed
this from nineteen forty seven songs Cadillac Boogie by Jimmy Liggins. It has that
same twelve bar blues beat to it. And what happened with Sam Phillips was
telling the story when they got to the studio in Memphis, amp the amplifier,
the bass amplifier fell off the car got it into the studio and the
whiffer had broken that the cone was burst. So Sam took some newspaper and
stuck some stack paper in it, and that's where they got that sound that
he said, you know, this could bird be well be the first song
that was the feature guitar distortion. Now the guys in the band independently who
paid something like twenty bucks for the session. And what had happened was the
label was messed up. It was really like Turner, but it put Jackie
Brinston on with a different name, and I was very upset by that.
Jackie Brenston turned around and sold the song for nine hundred ten dollars of Sam
Phillips. And it's very interesting. I turned. His piano is the intro
on mil Richard's Big Hits, Good Dolly, Miss Molly right. So the
song becomes this giant rhythm and blues record. General Motors turns away. It
gives Jackie a brand new Rocket eighty eighth to thank him for the publicity,
and I turned it disgusted. He said something, dude, if the record
company beat me and only got forty bucks for writing, producing and recording this
song, and the lead singer, Jackie Brenston, then took my band from
me and went on his OD. So well, I still had money to
buy cocaine, so let's do it. Rocket eighty eight Baby Jackie Brenston is
Delta cant possibly the first rock and roll records ever recorded. From nineteen fifty
one on Rock and Roll archaeot You wantn have heard of the life as you
heard the knowing they made. But let me re induce my new Rocket eighty
eight dance its bed just one week. Everybody likes my Rocket eight eight be
the riding style booming all along. He ain't more than this, smart and
designed like credible top and the cows going by throwing with me right now,
Rondo. You cannot have rock and roll without booging and woogie baby, that's
phenomenal. I want that my record collection. Good luck finding a copy of
that. Jim Lebarba, the music professor, with us this morning on seven
l W four Rock and Roll Archaeology, and up next it was Steve Wonder
Stevie Wonder's birthday last weekend, but we saved a Stevie Wonder track for this
weekend because this was a number one record, correct, Jim, Yeah,
number one record this week in nineteen seventy three, You have the sunshine of
my life and the sunshine of Stevie Wonder's life. When he wrote this song
was Rita Sarrita Wright who he married in nineteen seventy four years earlier, and
she started off at Motown. She was a secretariant, but she was also
great talented. Co wrote Stevie's big hit, sign Field and delivered I'm Yours.
This was his devotion, so Rita and he wrote the song. But
the relationship was it was difficulty. They got divorced. She said. The
working relationship was tough. I was always living in his shadow. But the
song, if you listen to it, Stevie wondered. It's very interesting Stevie
Wonder doesn't start singing right away on this record for whatever reason. Is backup
singers Jim Jill Scrap and Lanny Groves handled the first two lines. It's a
pretty strange effect. It's like Stevie Wonder needs to rely on somebody, some
of his friends to speak for him, you know, and while he struggles
to find his own voice. But of course, you know, Stevie finds
it and then he's often flying. And the lyrics are about being limped amazed
by the person next to you, even if you've known that person for years.
Great lyrics. I feel like this is the beginning. So I've left
you for a million years, and I if I ever thought our love was
ending, I'd find myself drunning in my own tears. Oh, wonderful stuff.
Let's do it. Number one from STEVELN. Junkins Stevie wonder you are
the sunshine of my life. Good morning christa two point Oh, if you're
awaken, you are the sunshine of my life. This why I'll always be
right. You are the forever you'll stay in my heart. I feel like
this is the be it though I love you for a million years. And
if I thought I love words, I findself redrowning in my sunshine of my
life. Yea twile always stay run. Yeah, you are there, my
li hever you stay in the food. You must have knowne that I w
don't they call you can do my MASKI and I know that this must be.
I could so much love and excellent questions. I could so much love
be inside of you. Seven forty nine at seven d W l W.
You just added Brennaman and Jones on baseball on this Saturday Morning edition. And
one more to recount Jim in our list of records we're remembering this morning.
Go ahead, Yeah, guys celebrated the birthday on Thursday. Albert Hammond had
the one Big hit in nineteen seventy two and Never Rains in Southern California and
the Wrecking Croup from La is of course the background on this and he wrote
it with his partner in Mike Hazelwood, and the song goes well, he
said it never ranged it and he wrote this song. It started. He
started writing The Left with Michael and before they came to Los Angeles, and
they knew what they were coming to Los Angeles, and he was telling his
partner the story of him, and he said, you know, I was
in Spain when I started, and I was asking for money outside of the
train station because I had no money to eat and I didn't want to tell
my parents. My countin was on honeymoon and he came out of the train
station saw me. Didn't even know I didn't know it was him. He
recognized me, and I just asked him for some money, like I asked
everybody else. And he said, you should be ashamed of yourself. I'm
gonna tell your father and I said, oh no, please don't tell my
dad. Don't tell my dad. Still go crazy and he'll stop me from
doing this. Well, then he took him back to the hotel, gave
the bath him some clean clothes and some money. He moved on back.
He said, my cousin told my dad, and all these things in a
song like will you tell them struggling the folks back home, tell the folks
back home, I nearly made it, and all that stuff that came from
that era when his life, when he was struggling trying to make it,
trying to get from from Morocco to Spain, from Spain to England, from
England to America, and the struggle that he went true. He said,
that's it. That's my life. It never rains in southern California, the
story of my life. There you go, Albert Hammond jim as always,
thank you, my friend. You are truly the music professor. And uh
it's great to share a birthday with you and everything else, and great to
listen to these great tunes as we continue. God um bottle West BA seven

Tracy, I'm sure that people that follow Major League Baseball closely are aware of
something new and different as far as the big leagues are concerned. In twenty
twenty three the Nike MLB City Connects Series uniform program. There have already been
four teams, actually three, the Braves, Arrangers, and the Mariners who
have debuted their their uniform, and each team is going to have one.
The Reds will debut their uniform tonight against the New York Yankees at Great American
Ballpark. Black and red, basically black the predominant color. I think they're
off the charts. They're so good. I think they're super cool. If
there's one thing that I know about is style. And just when I sit
there and looked at what's the funny about that? Yeah, okay, well
just the black niform. But you know, I like the red color.
That's like a candy alcohol red. I've never seen that color. But I
think that's the best uniform that I've ever seen on a baseball player. I
give Ralph Mitchell and his people a lot of credit to Ralph is a Red's
vice president of communications and marketing for the club, and they talked about how
the other teams seemed to go back in time and pick out some highlights from
their past. He said, we didn't do that. We're looking toward the
future, and that in and of itself makes his uniform radically different from most
of the rest of them. So Ralph deserves the credit right well, he
and people that helped him design the uniform and the overall concept. Can I
throughout a suggestion, maybe you should ask Ralph to update your attire because I
think it's looking tired and I think you need to upgrade. We'll be back
in a moment. Rnel Carriers has custom creating solutions to ship your valuable We

Yeah, we run out of time. I want to congratulate the Reds and

to learn that. So anyway, moving along, it's time for a Science
Minute with our friends Science Mike, who's standing by for real science, not
the alarmist science tempature is going to be scorching this summer as a night scientist
because get surviving binding needed. Good morning, Michael, how are you?
Hasn't even happened, and we're always saying it's going to happen. Okay,
Yeah, we were supposed to be underwater by now, according to the predictions
twenty years ago. Well, this is somewhat related to what we're talking about.
Well, it gets a point here, Carrie. Back to back in
March, we had the news outlets and I think this one also talked about
the hood on raccoon dog infection jumping to the humans story. Yeah, a
good example. One of the headlines was this is really strong indicase is from
one of the authors of the paper, strong indication that the amibles at the
market were effected. There's really no other exclamation that makes any sense, right,
So, you know, sets, that's that's fine. We'll just see
what happens when it finally gets reviewed by other people peer reviewed, and it
was peer reviewed by doctor Jesse Bloom to the top, the top computational viologist
at the Fred Hudginson Institute. Yes, and he pulled the data. Now,
all this stuff is based on swabs taken in two years prior and and
data finally released by the Chinese to the international community. And these swabs were
taken one month after the first COVID positive tests in this who non market,
and it's all based on the southwest corner of this market where they took these
swaps, and they finally released all the data. Okay, so the gentleman
where the doctor referred to doctor Blue, and he went ahead and looked at
it. And there's one swab in particular. It is called the Q sixty
one swab, and it says, you know what they said, we got
we got raccoon dog jesetic material, we got stars jenic material. It's evidence
that hey, this raccoon dog spread the disease. Well, there were fourteen
swabs taken thirteen oh, the fourteen had no indication of stars at all.
And in the material the fourteenth swab that all this is based on, it
was one and two hundred million reads that had stars. In other words,
if you had two hundred million marbles that were read and he had one blue
one, that was going to be that say that that's the one that made
it. That were evidence that, hey, we've got stars in this in
this genetic material that we took swabs from, and this pu non market in
a little southwest corner of this market, and it's just statistically insignificant. There's
no evidence at all that this started it. No, I mean, there's
the evidence that when anything happened, it jumped from the human into the raccoon
dogs. Now, the evidence that it started in the market would have been
if Anthony Fauci had been there a couple of years before in the market helping
the raccoon dogs with their gain of function research. The big big picture,
we're reporting news that's not peer reviewed that we're and we're saying, and we're
and we're putting it out. I mean, it's just just irresponsible. Well
it's it's gets alarmist, and it has an agenda, and it's propagandized.
It's propaganda. It's not news. It's like, you know, anybody,
anybody I get my news from, anybody I get in my news from in
this country, better not be sourcing the World Socialist News Network, Okay,
because I know I'm gonna be lied to every time. I haven't heard this
study public broadcast at all. I haven't seen at the times I haven't seen
anywhere, but yet we go ahead and go the other way with it.
I mean just because because it wasn't about finding the truth or finding science.
It was about the truth. One and two aren't billion stars material. And
it started with a raccoon dog. Never let Anthony Faucci near a dog.
You look what he's done with beagles. Thank you science, Mike, appreciate

it's amazing you bring that up. We could almost tie that in with rock

written written by Pete Seeger, adapted from the Bible, and it was
a hit record for a group called The Birds, and it does talk about
a season of sewing, a season of reaping, a time to love and
and the rest of it. And it's very very you know, we ought

right, that's the key right there. That's exactly right. Her Crossley's date
is the chauffeur. Uh and on pins and needles, so the entire time,
Yes, so big weekend, Uh your take. I know you'd probably
seen him before, but it was the debut of the new Reds uniforms and
what does that matter accept for some new merch sales and the marketing employees.
I like them, and you know, yeah, I think understanding what they're
trying to accomplish with those, you know, I think whenever there's a new
uniform, and this isn't just baseball and it's not just here, I think
there's an expectation that it's going to be some sort of nod to the past
or a throwback look or something like that. And I'm all in on that,
man. I mean a couple of years ago when the Red celebrated in
one hundred anniversary, and you know, they basically, at some point in
the season wore every uniform in the history of the franchise. I loved a
lot of those looks. But but not every new UNI has to be an
homage to the past, and so I wouldn't want that to be the regular
look, to be honest with you, and I am saying to my wife
last night, I sort of think the black top would look better with white
pants. But that's that's not what they're doing. It's not what they're doing
across baseball. But I thought I thought the look was was pretty cool.
I guess they're going to wear them on a bunch of Friday nights. I
would imagine the players aren't going to be thrilled us they ever had to wear
them on a Sunday afternoon game or something like that. But I thought,
aesthetically they looked good and I wish they would have won wearing them last night.
Remember when Michael Jordan came back and he was wearing the forty five instead
of the twenty three, and there was such a clubbub and furor over all
of that, and it was obviously just a way for Nike or whoever to
make more money by selling more Michael Jordan's jerseys, because now you had to
have the forty five along with the twenty three. But the uniform thing,
to me is kind of you know, is it aesthetically pleasing? Okay?
Is it cool looking? Okay? But it's you know, it's smacks of
obvious. You know, it's it's capitalism and it's finest. So I guess
I love it, no question about it. I mean, you can call
it capitalism, you can call it a cash grab, whatever it is.
Here's what I could tell you. Down to the area near the A Team
store last Saturday morning when they debuted the Jerseys right and merch was flying off
the shelves. So that's obviously the intended purpose, and I think, at
least in the short term, at worked. So having the Yankees in town
is kind of neat. The Reds actually won their last series with the Yankees
last year in New York, not off to a fly and start last night,
and I just I was wondering, if David Bell had been still on
the bench managing, would he have pulled out Been Lively for that last batter,
just for a situational opportunity when Ben Lively had actually been going so well.
I mean, he'd given up the home run to Air and Judge,
but everybody gives up a home run to air and judge. And he'd walked
the you know, he'd walk the third out of Danning, and you know,
here comes the hook and it's not even the actual manager doing he the
interim manager or the acting manager at the time. Was that a good move
or not? Because I don't think. I don't think that Ben Lively gives
up a two run shot. Yeah, yeah, I you know, for
me, I would have stayed with Ben for at least one more hitter just
because there aren't a ton of great options in the bullpen. But you know,
pretty benefities might have been the guy whose name was on the move.
But when the manager gets picked out, it's it's not like he leaves the
stadium and has to relinquish his cell phone. He's usually just down the runway
and can very very easily communicate, you know, what he wants to happen.
So I don't know that the move is made differently. And you know,
look, I'm just having watched David manage for you know what it's been
for and a half years. I think I think that's I think he would
have made that move had he been in a dugout and and that wasn't all
that surprising. But yeah, it backfired, and I would have I would
have stayed with Ben Lively because he pitched very well last night. Oh yeah,
I don't think he was necessarily limping to the finish line. And there
just aren't a ton of uber, reliable options in that bullpen, and the
bullpen unfortunately last night. At times this year collectively, they've been okay.
Last night the exact opposite. It's the first time my wife had seen Aaron
Judge. We were watching on TV. First time my wife had ever seen
Aaron Judge, and she was just like, oh my god, he's a
giant. I see, yes he is. He is not a mere mortal.
You know. He may bleed red like the rest of us and need
oxygen to breathe, but other than that, he is not like the rest
of us. He is quite the amazing specimen. Is he not six foot
seven, two hundred and eighty five pounds. I mean, he's he looks
like an NFL defensive end. He looks like a big NFL defensive end.
And you know, I was thinking about that this week because you know,
they were in Toronto and there was the controversy with Aaron Judge looking back toward
the catcher, looking back towards the home dugout, and the Toronto Blue Jays
broadcast crew accusing him of stealing signs, which, by the way, is
completely legal. You're allowed to steal signs, you're you're not allowed to use
electronics to steal signs. But I asked, I'm like, all right,
if you're the Blue Jays and you're upset at Aaron Judge for doing that,
what are you going to do about it because you know, again, he's
six foot seven, two hundred and eighty five pounds. Who's going to be
the guy that beams Aaron Judge? And so what what did the Blue Jays
do? They instead chose to take out their anger at him on the Yankees
third base coach by you know, yelling at him to get out of the
way and blah blah blah. And that's what you do when you don't want
to really take out your frustration on the guy that you're frustrated with because he's
six foot seven, two hundred and eighty five pounds. Well, you know,
I think the key for see anybody playing the Yankees, whether it's the
Reds or anybody else this season is, you know what, let Aaron Judge
hit his solo home run. Don't let the rest of the Yankees beat you.
Don't you think that's a pretty good plan of action. Yeah, don't
don't bring him to the play with guys on base. Um, don't let
you know, especially in that ballpark, he's gonna hit solo home runs against
Okay, you can't let him hit. You can't let him hit three run
homers against you. You can't let him clear the basses. Um, that's
the strategy I think whenever there's a really good power hitter. You know,
we used to back in the day when when Barry Bonds would just torment the
Reds, you understood you were going to give up a solo homer. It
was the guys around him that you had to keep from getting on base,
You had to keep from extending innings after he hit a Homer. And the
same applied, The same applies to Aaron Judge, and the same sent re
applies this weekend, my friend west Side Jim was on with us just before
the break before at this half hour Mo and I was talking about his continuing
bromance with Joe Burrow, especially with the new buffed up look and the headband,
and poor west Side Jim has gone from like most of us were in
the seventies, with full wall posters of fair of Faucet on our bedroom wall,
to full full wall posters of Joe Burrow with a headband buffed up on
his wall. Was some of the similar results. Any comments, he's probably
not alone, I mean, first of all, Joe is more buffed up.
It's hard not to notice. No, definitely, there are very very,
very very few of us who can pull off the headband. Joe Burrow
is on that very short list. And it's funny. I think Fanatics,
which is the official NFL NFL you know, team online, team store supplier,
I think they sold out of Bengals headbands, which tells you there's gonna
be a whole lot of dudes going out this summer trying to copy the Joe
Burrow looks with almost no success, including pop perhaps Westy Jim. Yes,
well, you have to have hair to actually rock a headband. That part
of the requirement and I don't got it, So I'm not doing it.
You're not doing it. Well. I know what Cigar Sales did after Joe
Burrow was caught smoking the stogy. Yeah, I'm all in on that one.
I know, all in on that not so much, and that's a
good look for you. I've been watching We watched a little bit of the
PGA tournament, the second round from Rochester, the PGA Championship, and just
remarked at at the incredible you know golfers that are gathered there that are in
contention, you know, as the weekend looms, including Bryson Deshambo for the
first time in a long time. We see the now live golfer who was
you know, in the top four so far, and we'll see what happens
with the power and the physics at work there for Bryson. But I don't
know if you get a chance to watch any golf this weekend, but it's
definitely on on my radar. Yeah, you know, it was funny you
brought up Bryson de Shambo and owing to the fact that he's on the live
tour, which you know, frankly just not a lot of people are paying
very close attention to. I was on the air yesterday and I looked up
and it was on and there he is a top the leaderboard and I kind
of was like, wow, yeah him, Yes, and always one of
the more fun to watch golfers on tour. That sport is on fire right
now, and I think a big reason why is gambling. I think it's
it's the sport that has benefited most from from wagering because it's it's easy to
bet on. You know, there's now a ton of like fantasy golf leagues,
you could bet on a player, you know. I think a lot
of folks just okay, you know, I'm gonna pick this guy to win.
The odds are always is, you know, favorable just for value,
but because you know, there's there's never like an even money favored in golf
because the fields are so big, you can, you know, you can
create all sorts of different prop bets. You can bet on guys to finish
in the top ten, you can bet on guys to make the cut.
You can bet on one player to have a better weekend than another. I
think the mainstreaming and legalization in most parts of the country are many parts of
the country and sports wagering has really aided professional golf and and that, and
I think the fact that there's just a number of really sort of interesting magnetic
players on the tours has really allowed that sport. You know, a lot
of folks wondered, you know, well, when Tiger Woods has done,
what's going to happen to the sport? And you know, clearly it's it's
more fun if Tiger is playing. But we're kind of in this post Tiger
world and that sport's doing really really well. Well. I hope you continue
to do really really well and have fun. On Crowsley's sixth birthday today,
that's that's remarkable. I remember when we could hardly get through one of these
conversations without her trying to chime in. Well, I usually just sort of
go into another room. Now, but she doesn't follow like she used to,
right exactly, you know what, And that that will be a kind
of bittersweet thing for dad as she follows her less and less. All right,
mo, take care, have a wonderful weekend. Mike Allen, Saturday
Midday is just about ready to start, boy bunches to talk about, mostly
the federal bumbling incompetence based in Washington, d C. The FBI, and
what the Durham Report has exposed, what the whistleblowers have exposed in their testimony
before Congress, and now we're finding out more abuses of something called Section seven
O two, which is supposed to be investigations they were allowed to do on
foreigners, not Americans, and they've been using it to investigate and stalk illegally
people who were just at January six didn't enter the Capitol, and I mean
thousands records that they have violated the constitution that just broke last night, and
we're going to touch on that too. I'll tell you what you start scratching
the surface of what's going on in the upper echelons. Not the line function,
not the special agents assigned to investigations, but that hierarchy of the FBI.
They need to clean that place. So we have a field office right
and back of us. I know, I wonder if you and I are
being investigated just for talking about this. That's what I want. You know
what, Gary, Jeff, My guess is is that the line guys,
the everyday special agents, probably agree with us. They got to be tired
of it too, because it reflects on them. Well, when you have
James Coomey and Andrew McCabe and Peters Struck of all people saying, oh this
is there's nothing there. I know, when they were at the heart of
what exactly is wrong with the FBI? And how about the New York Times
and the Washington Post. One of them said that he's durham swung and missed
nothing found in the investigation, and then the other one said that basically there
was nothing there. They didn't cover it. But I'll tell you what,
there's plenty there. If you want the real story from major news outlets,
look to the New York Post, not the New York Times. Look to
the Washington Times, not the Washington Post or the Washington Examine. Oh yes,
and you'll get a lot closer to reality as far as reporting and fair,
even handed reporting. Who's on the show today, I just have one
guess, Actually two guests got Yiddio at eleven thirty talk about the region.
By the way, Lucas Sims starts tonight, I thought it was Luke Weaver.
No, Lucas Simms starts tonight. Only reason I know is I'm going
ah So anyway, we're gonna talk to yet at eleven thirty. We're gonna
talk at ten o'clock to Judge Kurt Hartman. Two big cases announced by the
United States Supreme Court on Thursday having to do with Twitter and Google, and
we're gonna have him lay all that out. All right. Fantastic Saturday Midday
with Mike Allen is next. Have a wonderful weekend, and if you want
to drop by and CMLB slinging drinks for Hillbillies and others at six twenty eight
Mama Street in Newport from eleven to seven today seven WLW. It's Cheap four
