00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:05.639
Great medium of terrestrial radio or perhaps
on the iHeartRadio app. We welcome you

2
00:00:05.799 --> 00:00:10.839
on in on this holiday Monday,
and they're celebrating along the southern border by

3
00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:18.480
letting in a lot of Chinese nationals. Thirty seven thousand Chinese nationals, thirty

4
00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:23.679
seven thousands were detained by the US
Southwest land border in twenty twenty three,

5
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:30.920
nearly ten times the year earlier thirty
seven thousand. That's a physical year twenty

6
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:34.280
twenty three, which of course ended
on September the thirtieth. Of this past

7
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:41.119
year, many thousands more have been
pouring in some down near San Diego,

8
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:46.159
about sixty miles east of San Diego. There is a four foot gap at

9
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:51.119
the end of a border fence where
these Chinese nationals seem to be pouring in

10
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:56.280
the latest thing we need to worry
about in this country with regards to illegal

11
00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:00.840
immigration. Let's think about this for
a second. Kind of buying up so

12
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.599
much farmland in this country, Why
was a China balloon, a balloon from

13
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:15.239
communist China allowed to transverse the United
States, unabused, unmolested, just transverse

14
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:19.840
the United States two summers ago.
Ask yourself why? And now we have

15
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:26.040
all of these Chinese migrants crossing illegally
through the southern border. Do you think

16
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:33.599
for one moment that President Shi of
China, do you think for one moment

17
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:38.079
that he would allow anybody to leave
his country and come to the United States

18
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:44.200
without his blessing or knowledge. I'll
give you the answer here. It's not

19
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:48.439
real difficult. It's no believe me, he knows what's going on. But

20
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:53.799
what's going on with our country right
now? This as the House has adjourned

21
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.640
its home, there's not going to
be any kind of, at least for

22
00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:01.719
the next few days, any kind
of movement on a border bill, largely

23
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:07.400
because the Senate, controlled by Democrats, want to tie this bill where it

24
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:12.439
may. The last bill we saw
it was tied to the border. It's

25
00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:16.520
a bill basically to fund the war
in Ukraine and some other dollars going to

26
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:27.000
humanitarian aid for the Palestinians and to
Israel weapons to fight Hamas. That's the

27
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:30.520
bill. The border thing was only
thrown in there. One third of it,

28
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.639
I might point out, only one
third of it. One third the

29
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:38.879
amount of money that was earmarked for
Ukraine was going to go to the border

30
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:45.520
for enforcement to the largest invasion of
this country, ever, and so the

31
00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:49.360
House won't take it up. They're
not going to consider the Senate bill.

32
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:53.240
The Senate bill is sitting there.
There are enough neo cons in Washington that

33
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:58.439
want to fund this proxy war in
Ukraine at the expense of what's going on

34
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.120
at the southern border. And they
thought they would throw the Republicans a few

35
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:07.599
crumbs in that bill and that everybody
would be happy. Well, not everybody

36
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:15.400
was happy. The neocons in the
in the Senate were happy. The people

37
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:20.360
that say they're Republicans that really aren't
Republican, they're happy. People that like

38
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:24.719
wars, they're happy. But the
actual funding to stop what's going on in

39
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:30.080
the southern border to any great extent
was not in that bill. And there

40
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:36.599
might be a good reason why standing
by to join me somebody that understands this

41
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:40.680
inside out. He writes for the
Center for Immigration Studies. His name is

42
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:44.919
Andrew Arthur. We've had Andrew on
before to talk about this stuff. He's

43
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:47.240
carving out some time today from a
vacation he's on and I can't tell you

44
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:52.520
how grateful I am for him to
do that. And Andrew, how are

45
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:57.199
you on this glorious Monday? Can
I'm doing great. It's a real pleasure

46
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:00.919
to speak to you into all of
your listeners. Glad you're here. Before

47
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.639
we get into the bill and what
and what it did not do and how

48
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:10.439
it opened your eyes, let's just
talk about these in order number of Chinese

49
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:14.479
nationals that are crossing our southern border. You know, economically, at least

50
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:17.519
we are the sworn enemy of China, and we may be even more than

51
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.920
that in a couple of years,
if indeed China makes a move on Taiwan.

52
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:28.040
I'm more concerned about Chinese nationals coming
in through our southern border than any

53
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:32.319
other group that has come through there. Tell me I'm wrong now, you

54
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:36.120
should absolutely, you're absolutely correct.
You know I've been doing this now for

55
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:41.279
thirty years, can and I can
remember when if we got one hundred Chinese

56
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.879
nationals a year was an exceptional year. People are pouring into the United States

57
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:49.120
right now from the People's Republic of
China, the ones from across in San

58
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:55.399
Diego. We're primarily flying into Tijuan
and other international airports at the hop skipping

59
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:59.360
to jump through the hole in the
fans right into the United States. And

60
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:01.199
they're coming now. But we don't
know anything at all about them. It's

61
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:04.800
not like we could ask the Chinese
government who these people are, why they're

62
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:09.759
coming. But that's not even the
most shocking, Well that is pretty shocking,

63
00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:12.759
But the most shocking thing is that
they're probably all going to get granted

64
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:16.839
asylum. The asylum rates for nationals
the People's Republic of China are sky high

65
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:21.480
because we don't know anything about them. They can tell us anything that they're

66
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:29.319
you know, house Christians, or
that they've suffered from the child control policy

67
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:32.000
that hasn't existed in China you know, for years anyway. But yeah,

68
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:35.879
and basically we have to accept everything
that they say unless we could you know,

69
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:39.839
trip them up and a lie,
we're never going to be able to

70
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:45.279
vet their their asylum planes. And
they're going to not only be allowed to

71
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.079
come here, they're going to be
allowed to immigrate their family to the United

72
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:53.360
States as well. So this actually
is a big part of this problem that

73
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:56.920
Joe Biden has created. You know, another administration that can Haley, Donald

74
00:05:56.920 --> 00:06:00.800
Trump, RSK Junior, you name
it. They can come in and they

75
00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:06.000
can beef up the border. But
the Biden administration has now created these smuggling

76
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:11.399
pipelines from countries that we never got
people from before. And you know,

77
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:14.879
once you tighten up the border policy, you're still going to be dealing with

78
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:18.040
those smuggling pipelines for a generation to
come. So one more thing we had

79
00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:21.560
to take the BIB administration for.
And a lot of the pictures I can

80
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:27.680
only speak anecdotally because I'm not there. I don't see everyone of the people

81
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:30.800
that are crossing into this country along
the southern border. But since day one,

82
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:36.680
when this became a crisis in January
of twenty twenty one, the overwhelming

83
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:43.439
majority demographically of people that were crossing
the border were young men, men of

84
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.240
military age, not just from China, but from all walks of life.

85
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:53.839
We're talking about eighteen twenty twenty five
year olds, and that's that was concerning.

86
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:57.680
But these these pictures that I saw
sixty minutes did a whole story on

87
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:00.879
it. About a week ago.
The pictures that I saw these again look

88
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:10.079
like military aged Chinese nationals. And
why would President she allow somewhat of that

89
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:14.360
age and that abled body to leave
his country knowing full well that it is

90
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.079
a military society, and knowing full
well that they are probably gearing up for

91
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:24.240
something with Taiwan. That to me
was as striking as anything in that report

92
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:28.199
that I saw. What about you? Yeah? No, And you know,

93
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:31.160
sometimes when people go through my whole
bio one of the things that they'll

94
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:34.920
trip across is what I would say
of the National Security Law Division at the

95
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:40.680
ions under the Clint administration. And
if we were seeing an influence of people

96
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:44.639
like this from the people People's Republic
of China, I'd be getting a call

97
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:47.319
at my house at eleven o'clock on
a Friday night from Jana Rino, the

98
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:50.879
Attorney General of the United States.
But you know, today this is just

99
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:56.160
standard operating procedure. It's as if
people, you know, the people who

100
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.879
are in charge of making the rules
in Washington. This relates to immigration,

101
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:03.439
not Congress that people are supposed to
be doing it. But whoever in DHS

102
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.079
or the White House is doing it
is completely nonshased by any of this.

103
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:13.040
Everybody should be concerned about this because, as you note, you know,

104
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:16.399
this is a country that is at
best a frenemy of the United States and

105
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:20.800
the worst, you know, has
interests that are adversely hostile to this country,

106
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:24.839
you know, but you also have
to add in, can there are

107
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:28.439
hundreds of thousands of Chinese students who
are studying in the United States, you

108
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:33.039
know, studying defense related technology.
This is the craziest thing ever. If

109
00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:37.200
you're from Libya, you can't study
rocket science. If you're from China you

110
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.279
can. None of that makes sense
in this day and age. I think

111
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:45.279
it's time that Congress start tightening up
all the rules all the way around as

112
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.000
relates to countries that have interests that
are adverse to the United States. And

113
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:52.840
top of that list is the People's
Republic of China, you know, the

114
00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:58.799
MPP and the Chinese Communist Party.
I mean, it's it's absolutely mind boggling

115
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:03.200
and shocking. Even if sixty you
know, if sixty minutes is doing this

116
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:07.440
story, it's got to be big. First of all, there an organization,

117
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:11.200
CBS News is an organization that's very
sympathetic to the current administration and to

118
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.200
Democrats as a whole. And for
them to do this story a week ago

119
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:20.720
means that it's caught their attention to
and I guess good for them. You

120
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:26.559
wrote something on the Center for Immigration
Studies and the headline was I was wrong

121
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:30.919
about the good in the Senate border
bill. It won't curb asylum abuses.

122
00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:35.360
I read the story and it gets
into the semantics inside the bill. Suffice

123
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:43.679
to say that that bill had the
Department of Homeland Security my Orcis's fingerprints all

124
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:46.559
over it. And I would not
be surprised that if we really ever did

125
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.759
get the full story on how that
part of the and I don't even call

126
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:56.000
it a bill to be on a
border bill, Andrew, it's the Ukraine

127
00:09:56.039 --> 00:10:01.320
war funding bill that just happened to
have a little bit of border funding in

128
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:03.879
it. But I might if we
ever find out the truth about this thing,

129
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:09.759
I would bet you that we would
find Mayorcis not only has his fingerprints

130
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:11.320
on this bill, but probably wrote
a good deal of it. Would you

131
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:16.480
agree, Yeah, no, I
would. In fact, you know you're

132
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:20.799
going to hear even in conservative media
Newsbackpox news, that this ends catch and

133
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:26.000
release and that it makes it harder
for aliens to make asilent claims at the

134
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:31.159
Southwest border. If you actually get
into the bill, this not only doesn't

135
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:35.240
end catch and release. Can get
ready for this. It reverses one hundred

136
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:39.039
and twenty one years of law that
mandates the people to come in the United

137
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:41.679
States, I legally are supposed to
be detained. In fact, it's called

138
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:46.000
mandatory release in the bill. If
you come here and you make it asylum

139
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:52.679
claim, they Allehundra New York.
It's the same man who's being impeached in

140
00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:56.480
the House of Representatives worked with the
Senate to you know, add a provision

141
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.080
that gives him more power to do
exactly what he's doing already, which is

142
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.480
causing the border crisis, and that
is releasing legal migrants into the United States

143
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:09.200
so long as they make even you
know, the faintest trace of an asylum

144
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:11.840
claim. This is a problem.
We need to be vetting all of these

145
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.840
people, Chinese, Mexican, you
know, El Salvador, and they could

146
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:18.799
be Swedish, I don't care.
We need to know why they're coming here

147
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.320
and what their real claim is,
and we should never release them until they're

148
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:28.120
either granted asylum or they're removed from
the United States. But that's exactly what

149
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.879
this bill does. And you know, with respect to the asylum part of

150
00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:35.639
this, where you know, toughens
up the rules, it actually does it

151
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:39.000
in a very artful way that makes
it look like it's a huge improvement.

152
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.080
I read this thing twice all the
way through, and it's like yeah,

153
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:45.000
okay, that's an improvement. And
then I really got into the language and

154
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:48.600
realized that this is probably one of
the greatest con jobs that's ever been inflicted

155
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:52.600
on the United States, because I
have no doubt that you know, Jim

156
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:58.840
Lankford of Oklahoma, Kreson Cinema of
Arizona, and Chris Murphy of Connecticut,

157
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:03.519
three people that you know worked on
this bill, really thought it was doing

158
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:05.919
good. None of them is an
immigration expert. They're not top top,

159
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:09.840
they're not Ted Cruz, they're not
Likely of Utah. You know, these

160
00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:13.759
are people who more or less believe
what they're told, and I think that

161
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:18.360
that's exactly what happened in the drafting
of this bill. But you know,

162
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:22.840
it's all the worst can because you
know, conservative media, you know,

163
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:24.879
looks at that and they're like,
oh, yeah, no, that's an

164
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:28.399
improvement when it's really not. You
really have to One, you have to

165
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.200
know what you're talking about, and
unfortunately, I don't think anybody in the

166
00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:35.720
Senate who worked on this did.
But two, you really have to read

167
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.960
every word in that three hundred and
seventy page bill to understand how the Senate

168
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:43.840
and the American people would get screwed
if it ever went over the law.

169
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.519
Well, a lot of this,
and you point out in your story a

170
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:52.000
lot of this is based upon you
know, these these asylum laws, and

171
00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:58.600
in this particular bill and law that
was in effect before this, the bar

172
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.840
you have to jump over and does
get into semantics without getting knee deep in

173
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:07.679
a lot of those semantics. I
mean, we're talking about things like reasonable

174
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:11.440
fear as opposed to credible fear,
and I you know, again, it

175
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:16.879
just seems like this was written by
somebody at DHS. And that's why I

176
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:22.720
default to mayorcis what are they doing
here with reasonable fear and well founded fear

177
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.360
and credible fear? What just explain
if you could, in layman's terms what

178
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:31.759
that means. Sure, So,
credible fear is the screening standard that they

179
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:35.720
use at the border, and they
have since nineteen ninety six to determine,

180
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.919
you know, who has any asylum
claim and who has no asylum claim at

181
00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:43.960
all. They made some cosmetic changes
to that standard. They literally swapped at

182
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:48.960
one adjective for another that means absolutely
nothing. In order to be granted asylum,

183
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.200
you can show as low as a
ten percent chance that you're going to

184
00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:56.720
be persecuted if you get sent back
home on a cant and you raise your

185
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:01.759
religion, nationalities, membership in particular
group of political opinion, poverty, war,

186
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:07.120
all those things don't count. But
what this does is it makes it

187
00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:09.639
an even lower than that ten percent
standard. You know, what is it?

188
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:15.120
Five percent? Seven percent? And
you know once that if that bill

189
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.720
ever saw the light of day,
it would be Alejandra may york As who

190
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:20.559
would be writing the rules to interpret
it, and he would write it to

191
00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:24.759
his taste. And we've seen what
Alajandra and may york As the case are.

192
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:28.720
When it comes to asylum claims at
the border, it's let everybody in

193
00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:31.159
and in a decade and a half, for twenty years, you know,

194
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:33.039
we'll figure out whether they have an
asylum claim. But then they'll have a

195
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.720
house and a family and a job
and you know, a bank account.

196
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:39.559
We're never going to get those people
out of the United States. The way

197
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.360
that the law is written right now
is everybody that chows up I legally gets

198
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:48.320
detained, and they get detained again
until we grant him asylum or they get

199
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:54.000
deported. This does so many things
that would undermine that system. All in

200
00:14:54.120 --> 00:15:01.080
the all in the name of border
reform. This would literally make the border

201
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.399
worse, not better. That's probably
the simplest way to say it. Yeah.

202
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:07.799
Yeah, And I think the Senate
showed its hands last week when they

203
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:13.519
said, okay, if you're to
the House, okay, if you're not

204
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.440
going to pass, if you're not
going to pass this border bill, which

205
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:20.320
is really a Ukraine bill, we'll
do our own funding. We'll do our

206
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:24.720
own funding for Ukraine and for a
few other countries and Israel. And so

207
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:30.120
they passed a ninety five point three
billion dollars four an aid bill and completely

208
00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:33.840
left the border out. And to
me, I'm like, why didn't why

209
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.240
did first of all just admit at
the beginning of this thing it was a

210
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.440
Ukraine funding bill? Or secondly,
and this drives me crazy, and I

211
00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:43.000
know you have no answer to it. I don't have any answer to it.

212
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:50.159
We ought to just have things that
pass as standalons and not be tied

213
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:52.320
to something else. You want to
fund Ukraine, vote on that, you

214
00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:56.519
want to fund the border, vote
on that. And this is what drives

215
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.399
I think a lot of common people
just walking around places like since Eddie,

216
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.639
like me, why can't you just
do that as opposed to goop it up

217
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:07.639
with other stuff you want to do. And that's exactly what's happened here.

218
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:11.440
And now we'll see if the house
holds firm on this foreign you know,

219
00:16:11.480 --> 00:16:17.000
the funding for these foreign wars and
conflicts, or they actually try to make

220
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:22.840
this really work in the Senate and
get the Senate's attention on the border.

221
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:26.759
But I fear they will not,
just because I've lived in Washington, d

222
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.080
C. And I've seen how the
sausage is made. And my fear is

223
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.320
Andrew is just not going to happen. But that drives me crazy? Does

224
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:34.919
that drive you crazy? They just
can't say, Okay, here it is,

225
00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:37.519
here's some money, we're going to
vote on it right now, as

226
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:41.320
opposed to tying everything else in the
world to it. Doesn't that drive you

227
00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:47.159
crazy? Sure it does. But
you know, legislation is a series of

228
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:49.679
trade offs. That's you know certain. You know, there are certain laws

229
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:55.279
that I worked on, the real
Id Act of two thousand and five that

230
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:57.759
was linked to the tsunami funding bill, if you can believe it. But

231
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:00.120
you know, there were a lot
of bills I worked on, the Homeland

232
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.240
Security Act, the Secure Fence Act
that did what they said, we created

233
00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:11.759
a Homeland Security Department. You know, we authorized and mandated in places the

234
00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:15.319
building of fencing along the southwest border. Congress can do that again, they

235
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:19.240
just have to have the will right
now. You know, Unfortunately, you've

236
00:17:19.240 --> 00:17:25.559
got one chamber that is controlled by
Chuck Humer, you know, the ultimate

237
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:29.799
deal maker, and you've got another
chamber that is controlled by Speaker Mike Johnson,

238
00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:33.839
who is probably one of the most
principled men ever in Washington. And

239
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:37.759
you know, I hope that Speaker
Johnson is not naive enough to fall for

240
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:41.400
any of this. I don't think
he is. He's a guy who really

241
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:44.599
knows the border. If Mike Johnson
had been in that room, can't think

242
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:47.200
about it, If he had been
in that room when they were doing the

243
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:51.640
Senate bill, he would have identified
all the problems in about six hours after

244
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:55.559
this thing dropped on a Sunday night. By the way, it's seven o'clock

245
00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:57.880
on a Sunday night. If that's
not skeavy enough. You know, he

246
00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:03.119
was on Twitter saying this thing's dead
on arrival. He identified all of the

247
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:07.119
problems in six hours. And you
know, it could have been a much

248
00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:11.039
better process, but it was and
so right now, you know the ball

249
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:15.480
is in the House's court and you
know they're taking their time. They're not

250
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.319
going to be forced on this.
They want to secure the border, but

251
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:21.680
they want to do it the right
way. Well, Andrew Arthur, keep

252
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:26.960
fighting the good fight again with CIS
Center for Integration Studies CIS dot org.

253
00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:30.559
Thank you so much for carving out
some time today and stay well. I

254
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:33.039
know we will talk again. Thank
you, Andrew. I love forward to

255
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:36.599
it. Ken, thank you,
and my best to all your listeners.

256
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:41.039
There you go, wishing his best
to you. It is twelve twenty seven.

257
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:45.160
It's the average American still baffled by
the way this country conducts its business

258
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:49.160
in Washington, DC, and probably
will for as long as I live seven

259
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:55.680
hundred WLW. Meanwhile, in the
enchented forest, there's a very gunmother.

260
00:18:56.119 --> 00:19:00.319
I bet you're going to see Cinderella. I suppose are you going to make

261
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:03.319
her a beautiful dress for the ball? I don't know what's in it for

262
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:07.440
me, but you're a fairy godmother
and all I do is kids. How

263
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:10.839
about little something for me? Like
what I'd like to listen to Eddie and

264
00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:14.960
Rocky. They're funny. What if
you put a radio in her pumpkin carry.

265
00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:18.279
We should all listen to Eddie and
Rocky. Excellent idea. Eddie and

266
00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:23.079
Rocky give your day a fairy tale
ended Eddie and rock this afternoon to three

267
00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:30.440
on seven hundred WLW the Roar Insurance
Agency, well forty nine. The radio

268
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:34.480
seven hundred is w WELW. By
the way, that is the neck.

269
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:40.680
Those of you that weren't around when
my Sharona came out, Ah, she's

270
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:45.640
not your Sharona. Not a day
Moore? What is this disease on the

271
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.799
show? Gotta tell them what's on
the show? Gotta tell me Why can't

272
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:56.920
millennials afford to buy houses? This
is a problem for that group. It's

273
00:19:56.960 --> 00:20:02.279
because baby boomers aren't selling their houses
or dying, and you know, putting

274
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:07.240
them up for sale have no worries
at all. Millennials. Baby boomers will

275
00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:12.400
die, trust me. Also,
one in five Americans are smoking dope.

276
00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:17.720
Twenty percent of us are just walking
around high. I mean you could smell

277
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:22.799
it too. You know, there's
nothing there's no real camouflage for somebody that's

278
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.359
been doing the old tootsy wootsie?
Is there? How was out and about

279
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:29.799
this weekend? You walk by some
people, you know it. I mean,

280
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:36.559
it's there's the next The next great
invention waiting for all of us in

281
00:20:36.599 --> 00:20:45.880
this country is something that would camouflage
you and your clothing from other people noticing

282
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:51.759
that you have been lighting up,
because you could tell right away when you

283
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:53.519
walk by somebody if they've been smoking
dope. You know what they smell like.

284
00:20:53.519 --> 00:20:57.960
They smell like a skunk. So
think about that. The next great

285
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:06.359
invention will be someone who comes up
with some sort of body spray or some

286
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:11.759
sort of dope that doesn't smell like
dope and lets everybody know that you've been

287
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:17.480
smoking dope. Now, scientists of
the world, let's get busy on that.

288
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:26.039
They're not busy on that they're busy
diagnosing disease X. Yes, yes,

289
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:32.079
it's coming, it's coming. About
a month ago at the World Economic

290
00:21:32.160 --> 00:21:37.759
Forum, which the WHO was involved
with, they were talking about disease X.

291
00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:45.640
And now the director of the WHO, General Ted Rose, Grabrasius.

292
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:52.000
He goes by Ted Rose. Now
he is telling everybody that in all likelihood,

293
00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:56.960
disease X will break out. It's
a matter of if, I'm sorry,

294
00:21:56.000 --> 00:22:00.039
it's a matter of when not if
it's going to strike and it's going

295
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:06.799
to be twenty times worse than COVID. Tetrose, who is not a medical

296
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:12.359
doctor. By the way, he
is once again teuted the urgent need for

297
00:22:12.480 --> 00:22:18.880
a global treaty to be agreed upon
by May, for all nations of the

298
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:22.920
world to agree upon this treaty by
May. And this treaty shall state that

299
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.960
when disease X strikes, nobody knows
what disease X is, Nobody knows what's

300
00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:30.839
going to happen. Nobody is saying
it is coming. But you know,

301
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:34.000
Tetros is, you know this is
a power grab. He wants a treaty

302
00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:45.920
that when disease X breaks out,
it will be a global a global defense

303
00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:49.680
system against it. Not the United
States, which has the best doctors,

304
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:56.839
which has the best medical research,
that has the best I'm going to choke

305
00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:02.240
saying this pharmaceutical companies in world.
No, it won't be the United States.

306
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:07.839
It will be a one health approach. Oh and by the way,

307
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:15.839
if anybody, anybody so deems it
necessary to criticize the one health approach or

308
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:21.920
what the who is going to do, they will have an army of people

309
00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:27.319
ready to give out what their version
of information is and point out whatever version

310
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:34.279
contradicts their version of information shall be
labeled misinformation or disinformation. But no,

311
00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:40.440
it's not a powergraph. Don't worry
about that. We don't trust health organizations

312
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:44.640
anymore. They let us down during
COVID, particularly the WHO, but certainly

313
00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:49.440
in this country, the CDC,
NIH, Deborah Birks Faucci, that entire

314
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:55.599
group. What they did, either
in the name of medicine or in the

315
00:23:55.640 --> 00:23:59.440
name of science, or the name
of self eagertizement, whatever it may be,

316
00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:04.440
what they did is they destroyed one
belief that we should always cherish,

317
00:24:04.480 --> 00:24:10.480
and that is the belief that these
organizations will take care of us in a

318
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:15.079
time of need. And they didn't. And now the Biden administration is about

319
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:18.680
to sign off on this treaty that
would grant all of this power to the

320
00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:26.160
World Health Organization, the WHO and
disease X. Kevin Stockland writes for the

321
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:30.960
Epoch Times, and he's been on
this since that World Economic Forum meeting in

322
00:24:32.079 --> 00:24:34.480
late January, and he's here to
join us right now to talk about disease

323
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:41.759
X, what this is all about, and why General Tetros is so consumed

324
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.359
with it. He's kind enough to
carve out some of his time here on

325
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:48.960
this Monday and Kevin Stockland, how
are you on this glorious President's Day.

326
00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:51.960
I'm doing well. Thank you for
having me on the show. Anything that

327
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.599
involves international health is a red flag
for me. I don't know if it

328
00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:00.000
is for you, but just given
the way things have transpired in the life

329
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:03.440
last three or four years, it's
kind of a red flag for me whenever

330
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:07.000
I see something like this, and
knowing who the players are, I'm just

331
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:08.839
wondering. As you research your story, it's very in depth. I mean,

332
00:25:08.839 --> 00:25:14.279
it really outlines it. Well,
what red flags did it raise for

333
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:21.559
you about this disease X? You
know, like you, I tend to

334
00:25:21.559 --> 00:25:26.559
be a little bit suspicious whatever I
see centralization of authority and unelected officials,

335
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:33.200
whether their health officials or anything else, looking to dictate to people how they

336
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:38.079
can make their private decisions about their
health and their behavior, and also to

337
00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:44.359
constrict their rights of movement and free
speech, et cetera. So these were

338
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.200
kind of red flags that I saw
in this. A lot of the effort

339
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:55.079
behind this is really to try to
centralize authority in WHO and public health officials

340
00:25:55.680 --> 00:26:00.559
when this so called disease X may
hit. But there's very little effort to

341
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:06.920
protect personal rights, to protect people's
right to gather their own information and make

342
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:11.799
their own health decisions. And so
those are my concerns. This sounds like

343
00:26:11.160 --> 00:26:15.839
we don't know what this disease is. We don't know what the next pandemic

344
00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:18.480
is, but boys, we better
be we better be ready for it because

345
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:23.799
we've got to do that seven letter
word control. That's what it sounds like.

346
00:26:25.799 --> 00:26:29.400
Things kind of got out of control
with COVID after the fact and shed

347
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.000
light on the way things were controlled
during COVID. This almost sounds like that

348
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:38.160
what this group is doing, the
World Health Organization is doing is is let's

349
00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:41.960
make dang sure that when this thing
happens, whatever it may be, whatever

350
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:45.759
it may be, whatever we may
deem a pandemic, let's make sure we

351
00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:52.039
have control over the messaging. That
to me is the ultimate red flag here.

352
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:56.319
Would you agree? Yeah? And
you know it's not just the World

353
00:26:56.440 --> 00:27:00.119
Health Organization, So we also have
the World Economic Bom that just bet and

354
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:06.599
Davos switzerlane last week, all the
elites gathered there and they identified misinformation and

355
00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:11.440
disinformation and their words as the number
one risk factor facing the world today.

356
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:18.079
And so they're also on board with
all efforts to fight this and you know,

357
00:27:18.119 --> 00:27:22.039
to censor opinions that are our wrong
thank or or giving people bad ideas.

358
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:26.279
You know, this is going on
at the time that there's a case

359
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:30.319
before the Supreme Court of Zuri versus
Biden where a number of people are charging

360
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:36.839
that the Biden administration has been leaning
heavily on social media companies and tech companies

361
00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:44.000
to censor American speech regarding COVID,
regarding climate change, and even in some

362
00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:47.960
cases things like the Hunter Biden laptop. Yeah, well they still have Facebook

363
00:27:48.000 --> 00:27:51.720
and YouTube in their pocket. Elon
escaped a little bit, but you can

364
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:56.599
see how they're going after Elon on
another level here. But it goes all

365
00:27:56.880 --> 00:27:57.920
to me. It all goes back
to trust. Kevin, I don't know.

366
00:27:59.000 --> 00:28:02.759
I got this from from your story
as well, but there there there

367
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:06.680
doesn't seem to be any trust,
particularly in this country when it comes to

368
00:28:06.799 --> 00:28:11.240
NIH and with the CDC. I
think those the trust in those organizations were

369
00:28:11.839 --> 00:28:15.599
blown up by Rachelle Willinski and Anthony
Fauci. And on a global level,

370
00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:19.000
you look at the w h O, it's it's it's run by a guy

371
00:28:19.079 --> 00:28:23.000
that the Chinese put in charge.
So I think that's the big thing for

372
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:26.720
me post COVID is I don't.
I don't trust any of these people.

373
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:30.319
And it's the wrong way to feel. You're supposed to trust these people implicitly

374
00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:34.480
with your health, with your betterment, and it's it's not there anymore,

375
00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:38.480
I think for most most most thinking
people. Again, would you agree,

376
00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:44.200
Well, you know, all of
this is taking place in the context of

377
00:28:44.279 --> 00:28:48.200
kind of the undermining of our institutions. So as you say, I think

378
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:52.880
a lot of Americans no longer trust
the CDC, They no longer trust people

379
00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:59.680
like doctor Anthony Fauci, they no
longer trust the WHO or the UN because

380
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:04.880
these organizations have led them throughout the
COVID pandemic. And so you know,

381
00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:10.039
when the pandemic first hit, we
saw about eighty percent of the US population

382
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:15.799
willing to take the vaccines that were
being pushed on them. Now, when

383
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.640
we're down to Booster four or five, or whichever number it is, I'm

384
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.400
not sure only about twenty percent of
the people are willing to take them.

385
00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:26.400
So I think all of this effort
to centralize authority is happening at a time

386
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:30.759
when people are just not willing to
go along with the program, and they

387
00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:37.680
don't trust the so called experts.
Disease X. This is what this grand

388
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:41.720
plan is. They have no idea
what that would be. But correct me

389
00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:47.559
if I'm wrong. Was it disease
X. This whole plan formulated about six

390
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:51.519
seven years ago, back in twenty
eighteen. So disease X are the thinking

391
00:29:51.559 --> 00:29:56.400
about. It was in place before
COVID hit, right, Yeah, that's

392
00:29:56.440 --> 00:30:00.079
correct. So the concept of disease
X was fabricated by the World Health Organization

393
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:04.920
at twenty eighteen. They call COVID
nineteen the first disease X and now we're

394
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:10.119
gearing up for a second one.
And what they're doing really to prepare for

395
00:30:10.319 --> 00:30:12.240
whatever this disease X may be,
and you know when it may come.

396
00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:18.799
So they've set up a global what
they call one hundred days mission to crank

397
00:30:18.839 --> 00:30:22.759
out vaccines within one hundred days.
And you know, during that interim period

398
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:26.680
they would rely on you all the
things that we saw, the masking and

399
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:30.759
the lockdowns and the social distancing and
the surveillance, et cetera. So that's

400
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:33.640
one leg of it. The other
leg of it is certainly an effort to

401
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:38.920
fight what they call misinformation about the
disease. And then the third leg of

402
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:45.599
it is the Pandemic Treaty that's now
being circulated by the WHO I must spoke

403
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:48.240
calling it a treaty. They're calling
it in an accord, so it doesn't

404
00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:52.480
require congressional approval. But this would
really centralize a lot of authority when a

405
00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:57.480
health emergency comes in the World Health
Organization, and they would make decisions on

406
00:30:57.559 --> 00:31:04.000
things like allocating resources to treatments and
medicines. You know, who can declare

407
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:08.759
whether we're in a pandemic emergency or
not. And then also encouraging member states

408
00:31:08.759 --> 00:31:14.160
to fight this information. Okay,
so the just something you mentioned. They're

409
00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:18.960
crank out vaccines within one hundred days. Most vaccines. I don't know how

410
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:22.079
old you are, Kevin. I'm
old enough to remember polio vaccines and things

411
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:26.359
like that. Most of those took
years, a tremendous amount of vetting.

412
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:32.160
We saw during the pandemic. They
cranked out a vaccine within I think eight

413
00:31:32.200 --> 00:31:36.359
or nine months. That seemed rush. Now we're going to go ahead and

414
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:38.920
take a disease. We have no
idea what it's about. Even in COVID,

415
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:44.119
we had no idea where it originated. It's still a matter of contention.

416
00:31:44.440 --> 00:31:47.799
Was it fabricated in a lab?
Did somebody bite the head off an

417
00:31:47.799 --> 00:31:51.319
animal in China and spread it?
I mean we still have we still have

418
00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:55.920
no real transparency about where that came
from. And now for a disease we

419
00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:59.079
don't even know anything about. They're
going to try and crank out a vaccine

420
00:31:59.079 --> 00:32:02.440
in one hundred days. I mean
that borders on the absurd. Well,

421
00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:06.200
it is a bit worrisome, and
you know, normally you would expect that

422
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:08.960
it would be well tested and we'd
be able to see some longer term effects

423
00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:12.559
on people. You know, for
example, with COVID, you know,

424
00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:16.839
we learned after the fact that it
was not anything that was a serious threat

425
00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:22.839
to children or generally young healthy people, and yet all of them were being

426
00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:25.839
compelled to take this vaccine. In
stays By California, you needed to take

427
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:30.759
the vaccine to be able to go
to school, and the Biden administration tried

428
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:34.759
to force people to that they would
lose their jobs if they didn't take this

429
00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:38.400
vaccine. So now we're looking at
condensing this to one hundred days, all

430
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:42.279
of the testing, you know,
all of the searching for results. It

431
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:45.640
looks a lot more experimental than it
was even during COVID, and then after

432
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:49.880
the fact, I suppose we'll find
out what the long term effects might be.

433
00:32:50.559 --> 00:32:54.319
Kevin Stockland Epoch Times and we're talking
about his story that's on there right

434
00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:58.759
now on this disease X. Now, this it just it bothers me.

435
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:02.119
The you know, the whole medical
thing bothers me. But it's it's what

436
00:33:02.200 --> 00:33:09.279
we touched on earlier about misinformation disinformation. Who's determining what the misinformation and disinformation

437
00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:15.000
is? I mean, we saw
like four or five people at Twitter whose

438
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:21.559
obvious political views did not jibe with
the president at the time Trump. Who's

439
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:25.480
you know who? Who who's handling
the information and missing disinformation and misinformation?

440
00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:30.599
There were a lot of great doctors
voices that were silenced during COVID simply because

441
00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:35.480
they had an alternate view as to
what was going on, Men that were

442
00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:38.279
just and women that were just as
learned as the ones that were allowed to

443
00:33:38.279 --> 00:33:42.599
speak. So long as you spoke
the narrative, right, I didn't who's

444
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.559
determining all of this? Who?
Who's who? Who are the gatekeepers in

445
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:49.759
this? Well? The answer is
the question, so who is looking?

446
00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:54.039
Ok? Yeah, right, So
they would be one of the parties presumably

447
00:33:54.160 --> 00:33:58.400
or national governments or you know,
that's not really spelled on the in the

448
00:33:58.400 --> 00:34:01.000
pandemic a core, but we can
that that would probably be the source of

449
00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:07.160
it. And you know it wasn't
just during the pandemic. This censorship is

450
00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:10.400
going on even today. There's a
number of doctors and experts that we've spoken

451
00:34:10.440 --> 00:34:15.719
to that have done studies that say
they're very critical of the lockdowns and they

452
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:19.880
say they created so much more harm
than good. These studies are not being

453
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:22.840
published in medical journals, they're being
attacked in the media. So, you

454
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:27.440
know, whatever sensor and doctors as
well. There's a law pass in California

455
00:34:27.480 --> 00:34:31.639
that that doctors would be punished for
spreading this information about COVID vaccines. So

456
00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:37.360
you know, this censorship has not
stopped, it is ongoing. It's still

457
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:40.800
with us today. Yeah, another
reason not to live in California. Kevin.

458
00:34:42.119 --> 00:34:45.119
I enjoyed the article thoroughly. I
enjoyed our talk about EVS that we

459
00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:50.159
had a couple of months ago,
and I want to back maybe a week

460
00:34:50.239 --> 00:34:52.920
or two ago, it might have
been right after Christmas, and I watched

461
00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:58.039
your documentary on the meltdown in two
thousand and eight. They's just a tremendous

462
00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:00.360
piece of work that you have.
So you're on it. Man. I

463
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:04.400
love your stuff, and I thank
you for giving us some time here today.

464
00:35:05.480 --> 00:35:08.840
Thanks. I appreciate that, you
know. And part of the everybody

465
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:13.599
talks about the fallout from COVID and
what was the worst part about it,

466
00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:15.679
Well, sure, the millions of
lives that were lost. We can begin

467
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:22.800
there the isolation of children and how
there is probably going to be and we're

468
00:35:22.840 --> 00:35:28.440
already maybe seeing the effects of that
already of how isolation at a very young

469
00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:32.639
age away from friends may affect the
emotional and the mental growth of a child.

470
00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:38.239
We're already seeing that in the schools, that children are behind where they

471
00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:43.760
should be academically. We're seeing all
of the effects of the fallout of COVID,

472
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:49.039
But the biggest effect, in my
opinion, is the lack of trust

473
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:55.480
that we lost in our federal government
and some of these agencies like the CDC,

474
00:35:57.000 --> 00:36:02.159
like nih that we're supposed to trust
implicitly and we were let down.

475
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:10.599
And now we've got General Tedros who
was saying that anybody that this is he's

476
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:15.119
already preparing for this thing. You
know, he wants every single nation.

477
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:20.199
On the same page, he's saying
it's a power grab by the wayhow it

478
00:36:20.239 --> 00:36:24.280
will see sovereignty to the way show
will give the WAHOW powers to impose lockdowns.

479
00:36:24.800 --> 00:36:29.519
These are some of the lies that
are being spread. They are claims

480
00:36:29.599 --> 00:36:34.679
utterly, completely and categorically false.
He's already preempting the criticism. He's going

481
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:39.679
to get more than what does that
tell you about what the wahow really wants?

482
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:46.320
And a push comes to shove.
Don't you want someone in your community

483
00:36:46.719 --> 00:36:52.920
that knows you, that knows what's
best for you, treating you in your

484
00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:59.519
time of medical crises as opposed to
a one world health approach and maybe the

485
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:07.559
philosop fees and the ideologies of a
doctor that's halfway across the world. Keep

486
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:13.880

to who It's coming to a neighborhood near

494
00:37:57.480 --> 00:38:00.800
right back on the big one.
It's the average American into the great American.

495
00:38:00.840 --> 00:38:05.159
And Happy President's Day to you.
Nobody once asked me who's your favorite

496
00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:08.159
president? I don't know, you
know, I mean, I guess.

497
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:16.000
The first president I ever remember was
John Kennedy, and I vividly remember his

498
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:24.400
inauguration speech. I obviously visibly remember
his assassination. Kennedy really never accomplished much

499
00:38:24.760 --> 00:38:31.559
because he wasn't around long. Johnson
tried to keep his agenda going. But

500
00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:37.440
Johnson got sucked into the Vietnam War. He played ball with the military leaders

501
00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:43.639
and got us into that quagmire,
and then it ultimately cost him his presidency.

502
00:38:43.719 --> 00:38:47.960
It's fascinating. I was in Austin
two three years ago and went by

503
00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:54.280
the Lyndon Johnson Presidential Library. It
is a fascinating place. It is huge,

504
00:38:54.559 --> 00:39:00.440
as you would expect, because Johnson's
ego was probably unmatched for anyone that's

505
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:06.440
ever occupied the Oval office. I
mean it's so big. As you enter

506
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:10.519
his presidential library, there is a
limousine in the foyer, and it's not

507
00:39:10.559 --> 00:39:15.000
even the limousine he wrote around in
when he was president. It's not the

508
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:21.320
president's limousine. Of the social agenda
that we now have in this country,

509
00:39:21.719 --> 00:39:24.480
much of it, I mean a
grand portion of it was just great.

510
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:30.239
Johnson was a deal maker. He
was a former senator, so he knew

511
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:31.360
how to get things done. Died
at a very young age. I think

512
00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:36.880
he died at sixty four, massive
heart attack. If you go to his

513
00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:40.559
library, you can actually see on
the wall the speech that he gave the

514
00:39:40.599 --> 00:39:46.079
teleprompter copy of the speech that he
gave in late March of nineteen sixty eight

515
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:50.880
when he announced he was not going
to run for re election. So that

516
00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:58.960
was a fascinating place. Carter was
a bust. It just wasn't happening.

517
00:39:59.039 --> 00:40:04.760
Nixon was too small for himself.
Nixon did open up the United States to

518
00:40:05.400 --> 00:40:12.039
a lot of international diplomacy, but
he just, you know, he's he

519
00:40:12.159 --> 00:40:16.239
didn't think presidentially, he thought legally, and it got him into a lot

520
00:40:16.280 --> 00:40:21.440
of you know, hot water.
Obviously with Watergate, no pun intended Carter

521
00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:25.440
was a bust. Carter just was
I thought he was one of those guys.

522
00:40:25.480 --> 00:40:31.400
It was really an intelligent man,
but just not really attuned to the

523
00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:35.559
day to day workings of the average
person you, me, and everyone else.

524
00:40:37.079 --> 00:40:40.559
Reagan, for better, for worse, whatever you thought of the guy,

525
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:46.119
this country was just on its ass
when he took over, both from

526
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:52.119
a fiscal standpoint and from a morally
standpoint, from an ethically standpoint, from

527
00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:58.440
all of the things that go into
what constitutes a society, and he lifted

528
00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:02.639
everybody up. Everybody did well under
Reagan. Eventually, first couple of years

529
00:41:02.639 --> 00:41:10.519
were rough. Bush forty one he
was someone that I thought Bush forty one

530
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:15.639
was a smart guy. I didn't
think Bush forty one really was dynamic,

531
00:41:16.280 --> 00:41:21.760
didn't really have a grand vision for
this country, and I think Americans were

532
00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:25.039
tired of Republican rule by the time
his four years were up. Clinton,

533
00:41:27.320 --> 00:41:34.039
I thought, was a really smart
guy and brought his ideology more in line

534
00:41:34.039 --> 00:41:38.840
with the country and saved his presidency
after Nut Gingrich was elected in a Republican

535
00:41:38.920 --> 00:41:45.039
wave to the House of Representatives.
Gingrich Republican wave. Gingrish becomes Speaker of

536
00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:49.000
the House, and Clinton got things
done. Now. He had other problems,

537
00:41:49.360 --> 00:41:52.599
obviously, but I think Clinton got
a lot of good things done for

538
00:41:52.679 --> 00:41:58.440
this country, and if you look
back, somebody that even Republicans were warming

539
00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:01.679
too towards the end. Bush forty
three was the right guy at the right

540
00:42:01.719 --> 00:42:09.280
time, the right guy at the
right time. Gore was stiff but still

541
00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:15.440
had the residual effect of Clinton.
Yet he would not embrace Clinton when it

542
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:20.360
came time to campaign, and it
befuddled me. Clinton's popularity waxt and wane.

543
00:42:20.400 --> 00:42:22.239
It was pretty good when he left
office, but Gore didn't want him

544
00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:25.639
out there working for him on the
campaign trail, and of course we all

545
00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:30.159
know how that ended with the hanging
chads in Florida. But Bush forty three

546
00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:37.360
was exactly what this country needed at
that time. Obama was interesting. I

547
00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:44.920
would not call Barack Obama a unifier. He was certainly more conservative than the

548
00:42:44.960 --> 00:42:50.039
current guy in the White House and
understood politics a lot better than the current

549
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:54.440
guy in the White House. I
think that he did. I think he

550
00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:59.679
took Joe Biden out of necessity because
Barack Obama, if you remember, was

551
00:42:59.719 --> 00:43:02.159
only in the Senate for a very
short amount of time before it ran for

552
00:43:02.199 --> 00:43:09.880
President Trump financially. This country did
well. We were not really at war.

553
00:43:10.599 --> 00:43:14.559
Trump just couldn't. It's the same
problem he as now. He just

554
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:19.800
he can't dial it back. And
he does. He opens his mouth and

555
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:23.119
says things and picks fights he doesn't
need to pick. And unless that changes,

556
00:43:25.199 --> 00:43:29.440
regardless of who the Democrat nominee is, and I'm still not convinced it's

557
00:43:29.440 --> 00:43:32.440
going to be Joe Biden. Unless
that changes, he's going to have he's

558
00:43:32.440 --> 00:43:36.239
going to have a tough time in
November, regardless of how well he may

559
00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:38.079
be doing politically right now. And
of course there's all the other stuff,

560
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:44.920
all the other drama that's going on. And gerald Ford, God bless that

561
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:51.519
guy. This country was just an
absolute in array, disarray, complete disarray.

562
00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:54.760
People have lost trust in the government
because of Nixon, and in a

563
00:43:54.760 --> 00:43:59.360
lot of ways, gerald Ford saved
it. He did at his own expense

564
00:43:59.400 --> 00:44:05.440
by pardoning Nixon. Everybody thought Jerry
Ford was kind of a dullard. He

565
00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:07.599
wasn't. He was a brilliant guy. Went to his presidential museum in Grand

566
00:44:07.679 --> 00:44:16.199
Rapids last summer, very interesting place. But he got, at least from

567
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:21.320
a morale standpoint, everybody back up
on the balls of their feet, had

568
00:44:21.360 --> 00:44:25.320
no chance of getting elected president on
his own, but still at all could

569
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:29.960
have gone down a different road politically
at the expense of the country and chose

570
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:34.199
not to. And I thought that
was very noble. If you're of a

571
00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:36.599
certain age group and you're looking to
buy a house, you know, it's

572
00:44:36.599 --> 00:44:38.360
tough. There's not a lot on
the market. Millennials are having a tough

573
00:44:38.360 --> 00:44:42.440
time. And guess who's getting the
blame for all of it. Yeah,

574
00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:47.639
yeah, mom and dad. They're
blaming the boomers because, according to this

575
00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:53.960
study done by Redmen, boomers are
staying in their homes longer. And why

576
00:44:54.039 --> 00:44:57.719
is that, Well, they're living
longer. Why aren't they selling? Why

577
00:44:57.719 --> 00:45:01.559
aren't they downsizing? Because interest rates
suck? And because mom and dad,

578
00:45:01.599 --> 00:45:07.679
if they were smart two years ago, refinance their homes. So why would

579
00:45:07.719 --> 00:45:13.199
you move selectively or electively right now? If you're sitting in a home with

580
00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:15.559
a three percent mortgage and trying to
go out and you know, let's see

581
00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:21.599
what and you got to get a
seven and a half percent mortgage? Do

582
00:45:21.719 --> 00:45:24.960
the math? How much more would
that be on a monthly rate? But

583
00:45:25.360 --> 00:45:32.320
boomers are being blamed for not a
lot of product on the market. And

584
00:45:32.440 --> 00:45:37.400
I'm just wondering if that is sound
or if that is just making boomers the

585
00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:44.480
fall people again. Mark Johnson,

592
00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:14.760
I'm doing fantastic and it's always a
joy to spend time with you.

593
00:46:14.760 --> 00:46:17.360
You know, they love their home. I think for a number of reasons.

594
00:46:17.400 --> 00:46:21.599
The most logical would be that if
they were really sharp and on top

595
00:46:21.679 --> 00:46:25.360
of it two or three summers ago, they could have refinanced whatever the mortgage

596
00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:31.400
they had for a mortgage that was
somewhere around a three percent and now,

597
00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:36.840
of course it's double that and more
in some places. So really, I

598
00:46:36.840 --> 00:46:39.719
think a lot of boomers are reluctant
to sell or move just because of that

599
00:46:39.840 --> 00:46:46.559
alone. Oh absolutely, And what
we're seeing across the US and in Cincinnati

600
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:53.400
and in the US they're just in
February of twenty nineteen, across the US,

601
00:46:53.440 --> 00:46:59.119
we had eight hundred and twenty thousand
homes for sale. Today there's four

602
00:46:59.199 --> 00:47:04.599
hundred ninety four thousand in Cincinnati.
In Cincinnati February twenty nineteen, we had

603
00:47:04.639 --> 00:47:08.119
about sixteen hundred homes for Salem.
Right now they're seven hundred and fifty and

604
00:47:08.159 --> 00:47:13.880
so you can see you can see
that that constraint is causing you know,

605
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:17.400
some multiple offers, the people getting
you know, people knocking on their door.

606
00:47:17.440 --> 00:47:22.719
You want to sell your home,
want to sell your home. That

607
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:25.360
happens to me too quite a bit. I guess. You know, in

608
00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:30.119
reading this story, they tried to
hang it all on boomers. But I

609
00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:35.599
don't necessarily think that it's just one
age group that's that way, because,

610
00:47:35.639 --> 00:47:38.760
as I said, you might have
millennials in homes that they did the same

611
00:47:38.800 --> 00:47:45.239
thing two or three summers ago exactly. So you know, obviously there's some

612
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:50.639
tax implications in some high cost areas
for boomers. You know, I think

613
00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:54.440
the latest stat I saw from the
National Reverse Mortgage Association is at two thirds

614
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:59.679
of the equity in the US is
held by people fifty five years and older.

615
00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:05.480
But if we go back to the
last downturn in two thousand and eight,

616
00:48:06.000 --> 00:48:10.199
builders started under building. Then we
had a period of almost free money

617
00:48:10.559 --> 00:48:15.679
that allowed owners to upgrade their home. Most of us had to sell our

618
00:48:15.719 --> 00:48:20.239
home in traditional markets, but because
of the free money environment, they could

619
00:48:20.360 --> 00:48:24.239
keep their first home, turn it
into a rental and upgrade, and so

620
00:48:24.320 --> 00:48:30.360
that takes product off the market.
Then we had investors chasing returns coming into

621
00:48:30.360 --> 00:48:32.079
real estate. Then we have the
boomers, and we have the millennial.

622
00:48:32.159 --> 00:48:37.079
So there's really besides the article,
we can't blame it all on the boomers.

623
00:48:37.119 --> 00:48:42.000
I think there's really five significant trends
that are contributing to this shortage of

624
00:48:42.000 --> 00:48:45.719
inventory. Yeah. Absolutely, you
go, and I'm reading some of the

625
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:49.079
else you sent me here too.
There's tax implications in some areas of the

626
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:52.880
country when people want to sell.
What is the two thirds of the equity

627
00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:54.800
in the US fifty five and older? Okay, so I get that,

628
00:48:54.960 --> 00:48:59.760
but you also get into the problems
of selling and how you got to deal

629
00:48:59.800 --> 00:49:04.000
with Uncle Sam on all of this
too. Yeah, So let's say you're

630
00:49:04.039 --> 00:49:07.519
in a high cost area, you
know New York, you know Miami,

631
00:49:08.039 --> 00:49:12.920
the coastal areas, and maybe you
have a couple who bought their home in

632
00:49:13.000 --> 00:49:16.239
nineteen seventy for you know, two
hundred thousand dollars and now it's worth two

633
00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:22.440
million. Well, there's some significant
text implications there that's going to make them

634
00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:28.880
think before they sell their own.
Sure. Sure, and you know,

635
00:49:29.159 --> 00:49:31.519
as you well know, as you
get older, your needs change, and

636
00:49:31.599 --> 00:49:36.559
maybe the kids are gone, maybe
it's just you and your spouse or whatever

637
00:49:36.599 --> 00:49:39.679
it may be, and you want
to downsize. Well, because of what

638
00:49:39.719 --> 00:49:44.199
you just talked about in two thousand
and eight, there are very few places

639
00:49:44.280 --> 00:49:47.960
anymore to downsize too, and if
you do, they're probably more expensive because

640
00:49:49.000 --> 00:49:52.199
they're due than what your home is. So, I mean, there are

641
00:49:52.199 --> 00:49:54.400
all kinds of EBB and flow money
situations here. Well, what would you

642
00:49:54.440 --> 00:50:00.239
tell somebody if they get to a
point where they're very frustrated. Let's say

643
00:50:00.280 --> 00:50:05.360
they're in that thirty five to fifty
age group and the family has expanded and

644
00:50:05.400 --> 00:50:07.679
you've got kids and you're trying to
raise a family in a good neighborhood.

645
00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:12.280
What would you tell them about this
and the lack of product on the market

646
00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:15.800
and how to navigate through it.
Yeah, it would be. And this

647
00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:20.000
is why it's so important for them
to seek out a local professional because each

648
00:50:20.119 --> 00:50:24.440
market is so unique. But in
many markets there's homebuilders that are trying to

649
00:50:24.519 --> 00:50:30.760
catch up and build inventory and address
this issue. Many of the municipalities are

650
00:50:30.800 --> 00:50:36.639
starting to work closer with new homebuilders
and make it more easier for them to

651
00:50:36.639 --> 00:50:38.880
get developments and these kind of things. So the first thing we have to

652
00:50:38.880 --> 00:50:45.760
look at is in your local area, are there some homebuilders that are working

653
00:50:45.039 --> 00:50:51.960
with folks in that situation? Are
homebuilders still and I don't know. In

654
00:50:52.000 --> 00:50:54.280
the good old days they used to, you know, they would be plenty

655
00:50:54.320 --> 00:50:58.960
of incentives when you got down to
having to finance and whatnot. Does that

656
00:50:59.039 --> 00:51:04.920
still go on with builders? It
does, And again it's situation will depend

657
00:51:05.039 --> 00:51:09.920
on supplying demands, what we're seeing, you know, when when things slow

658
00:51:10.000 --> 00:51:13.480
down a little bit, and since
its start to come out, when things

659
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:16.639
tighten up a little bit and sentings
tighten them up. So a lot of

660
00:51:16.639 --> 00:51:22.159
it just depends on your local market
and what's happening there. And as I

661
00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:25.440
talk with agents from Alpaso, Texas
to Cincinnati to Washington, d C.

662
00:51:25.639 --> 00:51:31.960
The Bakersfield, they're all different.
To the dynamics in that local market are

663
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:37.880
slightly different. The big trends are
similar, but as you get into local

664
00:51:37.920 --> 00:51:43.840
markets, there's some nuances because of
local supplying demand or for restrictions or non

665
00:51:43.880 --> 00:51:52.880
restrictions on building. Several metrics go
into what ga Zillo did, I want

666
00:51:52.880 --> 00:51:54.679
to say about four or five months
ago, but they said Cincinnati was like

667
00:51:54.800 --> 00:52:00.440
the second hottest real estate market in
the country. And obviously there's as we

668
00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:04.239
talked about earlier, there's very little
product on the market right now. But

669
00:52:05.400 --> 00:52:07.320
you know, who would have thought
even four or five years ago that Cincinnati

670
00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:10.320
would have been one of the hottest
real estate markets in the country. We

671
00:52:10.320 --> 00:52:15.079
were always here, Mark. If
things got bad, it never really got

672
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:20.119
that bad here. If things got
really good, things never got really good

673
00:52:20.119 --> 00:52:22.920
here. We're just you know,
average Midwest and we just kind of like

674
00:52:23.079 --> 00:52:28.000
take everything in streat every day.
But now apparently we're red hot here in

675
00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:31.480
Cincinnati. What's happening here? Well, one, you have a beautiful market

676
00:52:31.519 --> 00:52:35.280
with lots of culture and things new. You know, I lived there for

677
00:52:35.280 --> 00:52:37.239
about six months. I'm all sure
that no, you didn't know well,

678
00:52:37.440 --> 00:52:42.519
way back in my military days,
I had a temporary assignment. But you

679
00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:45.239
know, you have a median less
price of about three hundred and forty dollars,

680
00:52:45.440 --> 00:52:51.840
so you know, you have affordable
housing, you have amazing culture jobs,

681
00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:57.280
you know, real estate jobs,
and market there's really three thanks right,

682
00:52:57.840 --> 00:53:02.559
jobs us you know, mortgage rates
jobs, you know, and the

683
00:53:02.599 --> 00:53:07.599
local kind of culture. And you
know you have all three of those really

684
00:53:07.599 --> 00:53:09.880
working for you. Yeah, and
obviously you know, I've spent the majority

685
00:53:09.880 --> 00:53:13.639
of my adult life here, so
that you know, for me, it

686
00:53:13.760 --> 00:53:16.280
worked perfectly. I mean, it's
there's so many things to sell about Cincinnati

687
00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:20.760
that we here in Cincinnati know,
but it's kind of cool to see it

688
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:23.639
get that that reputation. Now we're
chatting with Mark Johnson. We're talking about

689
00:53:23.679 --> 00:53:29.360
real estate. We're talking about how
there is just a real shortage of product

690
00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:31.800
on the market everywhere, it seems
like in the United States, and how

691
00:53:31.800 --> 00:53:37.559
it's affecting some of the younger buyers
because people that are aging are hanging on

692
00:53:37.599 --> 00:53:39.199
to their properties longer. So we
talked to it, you have to partner

693
00:53:39.199 --> 00:53:43.880
with somebody that knows what's going on
and can work you through the labyrinth of

694
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:45.840
what it's like trying to buy and
sell a home in this day and age.

695
00:53:46.119 --> 00:53:50.280
But you also have to, I
think, have a few other things

696
00:53:50.320 --> 00:53:52.800
in your in your tool kit here. If you are a millennial, or

697
00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:58.960
if you're somebody that is approaching into
the waning stages of boomerism, you know

698
00:53:59.000 --> 00:54:01.840
you've got to You've got to have
something more than just somebody good to work

699
00:54:01.840 --> 00:54:07.920
with. What else do you need? Well, you need a good financial

700
00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:15.039
advisor, right for sure. And
to your point, you know, I

701
00:54:15.079 --> 00:54:17.360
was just looking at this article that
Redfinn put out. We're showing, you

702
00:54:17.400 --> 00:54:21.079
know, forty percent of boomers have
lived in their homes for at least twenty

703
00:54:21.159 --> 00:54:27.719
years. It's almost double what it
was you know, not too long ago.

704
00:54:28.360 --> 00:54:30.559
You know, the average time in
your home with sixty seven. So

705
00:54:30.440 --> 00:54:34.880
you need a low You need to
surround yourself with a couple of local professions.

706
00:54:35.079 --> 00:54:38.119
You know, a great strong wheeltor
a financial planner, you know,

707
00:54:38.159 --> 00:54:43.559
your tax advisor and consultant, because
these are all the folks who can really

708
00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:51.639
help you make sense out of these
complex things as you come into you know,

709
00:54:51.679 --> 00:54:57.920
and they're big financial many times this
is the biggest financial transaction that the

710
00:54:57.960 --> 00:55:00.760
family will make right right, No, absolutely, you know, I have

711
00:55:00.840 --> 00:55:06.239
to really address the future here with
you because it's as important as the present

712
00:55:06.320 --> 00:55:08.599
I think right now. I mean, and it depends on where you live

713
00:55:08.920 --> 00:55:15.360
and what the market will bear.
But I know on average through to your

714
00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:21.199
fixed mortgage is somewhere around just north
is seven and a half. Where do

715
00:55:21.239 --> 00:55:23.519
you see it going? I mean, how much does it come down?

716
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:28.280
And you have to, of course
weigh that, although it's not a direct

717
00:55:28.320 --> 00:55:30.159
line, you have to weigh that
against what the Fed is doing visa v

718
00:55:30.280 --> 00:55:34.920
inflation. But seven and a half
percent for a boomer that's in a house

719
00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:37.880
with a mortgage right now of three
percent, and that boomer doesn't have to

720
00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:43.000
move, He's not moving anytime soon. So what do you see these rates,

721
00:55:43.559 --> 00:55:46.079
let's say the next nine to twelve
months. Yeah, not not only

722
00:55:46.159 --> 00:55:51.320
the boomers, the millennials. Whoever
has a home at three percent isn't right

723
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:54.320
right exactly unless they have to.
And many of the people that are being

724
00:55:54.599 --> 00:56:00.519
professionally relocated by their bigger companies are
getting the gap covered for them. Like

725
00:56:00.639 --> 00:56:07.280
let say I'm a professional that's being
moved from Cincinnati to LA for temporary assignment.

726
00:56:07.039 --> 00:56:10.880
They're not. They're employers not penalizing
them on that increased mortgage. They've

727
00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:15.960
covered that gap for them. Otherwise
they wouldn't move right right exactly. But

728
00:56:15.039 --> 00:56:21.880
all the pundits, and I have
a tracker from all the predictive pundits,

729
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:24.840
were saying by summer, we were
going to see five percent mortgage rates.

730
00:56:25.239 --> 00:56:31.440
Well they've gone up, right.
And I'm not a predictor of mortgage rates.

731
00:56:31.480 --> 00:56:34.679
I wish I could figure this out. But there's a gap to the

732
00:56:34.719 --> 00:56:39.079
tenure treasury bond, and currently the
gap is the biggest it's ever been.

733
00:56:39.159 --> 00:56:45.360
Right, the gap is, and
sooner or later that gap is going to

734
00:56:45.400 --> 00:56:52.920
shrink. But investors want that gap
to to compensate them for the risk return

735
00:56:52.039 --> 00:56:58.280
they see and buy new bonds.
And until that switches, I don't want

736
00:56:58.280 --> 00:57:00.079
to get into politics at the moment, but if you look at our national

737
00:57:00.159 --> 00:57:10.039
debts, that's that's a problem exactly. It ripples through all the economy and

738
00:57:10.039 --> 00:57:15.760
the affects quite a few things.
I think the you know, an inflation

739
00:57:15.880 --> 00:57:19.880
rate too. I was just looking
at Lauren June, he's the chief economist

740
00:57:19.960 --> 00:57:23.639
from any of our publisher that the
FED likes to run around a two percent

741
00:57:23.719 --> 00:57:27.639
inflation rate. We've got it down
to about three percent, so there's still

742
00:57:27.679 --> 00:57:32.360
a gap there that that needs to
be addressed. So all of these factor

743
00:57:32.400 --> 00:57:40.440
in. But the pundits that were
predicting five percent rates so far not yet.

744
00:57:42.280 --> 00:57:47.519
Not yet. Yeah, but eventually. Uh if I was, you

745
00:57:47.559 --> 00:57:52.159
know, a betting man, I
would you know they're gonna They're gonna have

746
00:57:52.199 --> 00:57:54.840
to come down eventually. Yeah,
I agree, because there's so many different

747
00:57:54.920 --> 00:58:00.360
businesses that are so tied to the
housing industry. I mean, we're talking

748
00:58:00.360 --> 00:58:05.880
about contractors, the people that do
the contracting work, subs and all that.

749
00:58:06.039 --> 00:58:08.639
I mean, it affects so many
different areas well. Mark and lightening.

750
00:58:09.159 --> 00:58:14.840
This is enlightening. How do people
find you or maybe even some perspective,

751
00:58:14.880 --> 00:58:17.960
real estate companies find you? Because
everybody in this world needs guidance and

752
00:58:19.119 --> 00:58:22.639
guidance, and you sound like you
got some. I do. And before

753
00:58:22.679 --> 00:58:24.920
I do that, though, because
I wanted to comment on your economic thing,

754
00:58:25.039 --> 00:58:30.880
for every two homes that are sold
or resold, there's one job sustained

755
00:58:30.960 --> 00:58:35.280
or created in the local market.
Wow. So think about that. Just

756
00:58:35.440 --> 00:58:38.079
years ago we had one million,
you know, we were selling six million

757
00:58:38.119 --> 00:58:42.639
homes a year, and now we're
down to four million. That's job job

758
00:58:42.719 --> 00:58:46.280
loss or job creation. Yeah,
so anyway how they find me is that

759
00:58:46.400 --> 00:58:51.800
recruiting insight dot net. Recruiting insight
dot net. And whether you're a broker,

760
00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:54.079
owner or a consumer, would love
to talk to anybody and help them

761
00:58:54.119 --> 00:58:59.599
out as best we can to navigate
through this challenging market. Yeah. Amen

762
00:58:59.679 --> 00:59:02.559
to that, Mark, stay well, thanks again for this and as I

763
00:59:02.599 --> 00:59:06.280
say, stay well, because we
need to hear your voice. Thank you,

764
00:59:07.159 --> 00:59:10.400
thank you so much. You bet
you bet so. Stop blaming boomers.

765
00:59:13.400 --> 00:59:17.280
They're not bad people. Really.

since the Orthopedic Urgent Care Plus Ortho

771
00:59:38.039 --> 00:59:43.639
since the Orthopedic Urgent Care has extended
evening and Saturday hours in Edgewood and Anderson

772
00:59:43.920 --> 00:59:47.159
or so it leads to the degree
of summer league play. They won't even

773
00:59:47.239 --> 00:59:51.480
do that. And it comes across
as you snubbing your nose. And when

774
00:59:51.480 --> 00:59:53.719
it comes across that way, why
would it come across that way because you

775
00:59:53.760 --> 00:59:59.320
have the power to get away with
it, and this abusive and that is

776
00:59:59.360 --> 01:00:02.639
what has happened, and it has
elevated a level of disgust that is coming

777
01:00:02.719 --> 01:00:07.960
in their direction. Not all okay, but some of them are collectively because

778
01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:09.840
y'all on the court together, you're
gonna take the brunt of this. You're

779
01:00:09.840 --> 01:00:13.519
gonna get your money, you gonna
get your shine and all of this other

780
01:00:13.559 --> 01:00:17.239
stuff. But folks ain't gonna forget
it because that effort last night, nearly

781
01:00:17.360 --> 01:00:22.960
four hundred points being scored at an
embarrassment. It is a travesty and anybody

782
01:00:22.960 --> 01:00:27.719
that participated in that game last night
should be ashamed of their damn self.

783
01:00:27.920 --> 01:00:39.239
Oh hello, quiet, and I'm
broadcasting god seg. Wouldn't you like to

784
01:00:39.280 --> 01:00:45.159
hear a coach of a Cincinnati based
team talk that way? I mean,

785
01:00:45.280 --> 01:00:47.079
just after a game come out via
stephen A. A lot of well,

786
01:00:47.440 --> 01:00:53.079
they were yelling, they were defense, defense, they were yelling last night

787
01:00:53.079 --> 01:00:55.679
in Indianapolis, and I guess they
forgot to play it. You know,

788
01:00:57.159 --> 01:01:00.679
holy cal I will say this upfront. If they were playing in the NBA

789
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:04.440
All Star Game in my backyard,
I would close the drapes. Thank you

790
01:01:04.559 --> 01:01:09.079
me too. Do you know there
were two hundred and eighty nine shots attempted

791
01:01:09.119 --> 01:01:15.440
in that game and and the losing
the Karl Anthony Town's got fifty points for

792
01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:20.440
the West. What Lebron James had
eight? Where? What? What?

793
01:01:20.440 --> 01:01:23.280
What do he do? What he
leave or something? Did he go to

794
01:01:23.360 --> 01:01:29.039
Saint Elbows and have shrimp cocktailers,
load management, load management, load managements?

795
01:01:29.400 --> 01:01:32.119
There were there were a grands hotal
get this, a grands total of

796
01:01:32.320 --> 01:01:37.639
five free throws in that game last
night. Why, I mean, what

797
01:01:38.000 --> 01:01:40.079
do you what do you do with
that game? I mean, what you

798
01:01:40.119 --> 01:01:44.880
know you went back to thank you
used to have you know, you used

799
01:01:44.920 --> 01:01:49.000
to have team Lebron in this.
Then they picked their teams and in this

800
01:01:49.079 --> 01:01:52.079
and that. Then they went back
to the East versus West. Now,

801
01:01:52.440 --> 01:01:55.599
I mean it's a joke. Well
you know what NFL figured it, What

802
01:01:55.639 --> 01:02:00.000
the NFL did this year was a
joke too, with the flag football correc

803
01:02:00.519 --> 01:02:04.599
Yeah, but I watched that for
like fifteen minutes. Yest night, I

804
01:02:04.639 --> 01:02:07.360
watched for ten minutes and I turned
it off. I couldn't watch it.

805
01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:14.039
It was horrible. I watched the
pregame Stuff is good with Shaq and Charles

806
01:02:14.079 --> 01:02:15.719
Barkley and those guys. At the
beginning they got to just sit there and

807
01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:21.119
talk about life and basketball and everything
else in the world. I'd rather watch

808
01:02:21.199 --> 01:02:23.960
that than what time did the game
actually start? Because I started watching it

809
01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:29.199
at eight o'clock. They kept interviewing
players. I'm going when you all going

810
01:02:29.239 --> 01:02:31.440
to start the game, like nine
ten o'clock at night? I would rather

811
01:02:31.480 --> 01:02:36.840
watch two porcupines, mate, Thank
you. Then watched that crap last night.

812
01:02:36.920 --> 01:02:40.320
It was unbelievable. Guys were jacking
shots up from Dayton. You know,

813
01:02:42.159 --> 01:02:45.000
it was just jack is shot up, try a slam dunk, don't

814
01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:52.239
play any defense. I mean there
were five free throws attempted in that game.

815
01:02:52.280 --> 01:02:55.800
That's how bad that game was last
night. Brutal. It's I mean

816
01:02:57.280 --> 01:02:59.519
just, I mean, we don't
have a team here, thank goodness and

817
01:02:59.519 --> 01:03:01.639
everything else, but I mean that's
just. I mean, what do you

818
01:03:01.719 --> 01:03:05.880
do I mean, if you're Adam
Silver, the commissioner, I mean you're

819
01:03:05.920 --> 01:03:07.920
sitting there going, you know,
you know, we want a competitive game

820
01:03:08.000 --> 01:03:10.639
and this and that and everything else. Then they roll out with that and

821
01:03:10.639 --> 01:03:15.360
they're going, well, they made
the Commissioner rec League game that had more

822
01:03:15.400 --> 01:03:19.920
defense than that, and and honestly, the only All Star game that works

823
01:03:20.199 --> 01:03:22.480
is the Baseball All Store Game,
right, you know, and even that's

824
01:03:22.519 --> 01:03:25.679
not all that great. I mean
it's it's you know, because guys aren't

825
01:03:25.719 --> 01:03:29.960
thrown inside and you know there's not
you know, they'll play it in a

826
01:03:30.079 --> 01:03:32.440
and leave and all that. Some
guys skip it completely. Hockey can't do

827
01:03:32.519 --> 01:03:36.159
it, hockey, you know,
it says this team for this game,

828
01:03:36.239 --> 01:03:39.039
this team three on three winners meet, right. You know, why don't

829
01:03:39.119 --> 01:03:44.440
all of these leagues just admit the
only reason why they hold these things money

830
01:03:44.519 --> 01:03:47.679
so they can suck money out of
the town and correct held in correct money

831
01:03:47.679 --> 01:03:52.159
out of the networks and suck money
out of guys like you would make Well,

832
01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:53.360
I'll tell you one thing, if
I had a ticket to that last

833
01:03:53.440 --> 01:03:58.079
night, I'd sue the NBA if
if I pay, I don't know what

834
01:03:58.159 --> 01:04:01.400
the ticket prices are going. Nobody
listening to us in Indianapolis maybe can call

835
01:04:01.480 --> 01:04:04.480
us, but if you, if
you whatever you paid, it was too

836
01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:10.360
much because you got ripped off.
I would rather watch six monkeys on a

837
01:04:10.400 --> 01:04:15.000
fence, thank you, dancing.
I would rather watch bumblebees buzzing around people.

838
01:04:15.119 --> 01:04:19.840
I would rather watch people swatting away
flies. I would rather watch anything.

839
01:04:20.039 --> 01:04:26.119
I would rather watched the rain drops
at Daytona than that. Seg.

840
01:04:26.280 --> 01:04:29.480
Let's get some sports going here,
because obviously we're more very upset. That's

841
01:04:29.480 --> 01:04:32.360
true, ken Brew. The stood
reporters of Proud Service, every local Tamestar

842
01:04:32.599 --> 01:04:39.639
heating and air conditioning dealers Tamestar quality
you could feel in beautiful Cincinnati called Sheldon

843
01:04:39.679 --> 01:04:44.920
Braun at Broun Heating at five one, three, three eight, five seventy

844
01:04:45.000 --> 01:04:49.840
seven sixty five spots. Thank you. Let's calm down here, ken Brew.

845
01:04:49.880 --> 01:04:55.519
Because the Reds are going through their
first full squad workout today. Most

846
01:04:55.519 --> 01:04:59.199
of the position players are there,
were there a week ago. Tack This

847
01:04:59.320 --> 01:05:03.239
league openers Saturday against those Guardians.
I haven't heard yet who's going to start,

848
01:05:03.440 --> 01:05:06.119
so we'll see what happens. Yeah, they say it's not a given

849
01:05:06.199 --> 01:05:10.880
that Hunter Green is going to start
open an opening day, right. Nicolodolo,

850
01:05:11.119 --> 01:05:14.599
of course, limited to US seven
starts last season with that left tibbia

851
01:05:14.679 --> 01:05:17.519
problem, looks good. A Mound
Sessions expected to be on track for opening

852
01:05:17.599 --> 01:05:23.679
day. Emilio Pagan had off season
hernia surgery. He won't be ready for

853
01:05:23.719 --> 01:05:27.800
Saturday's Oasburner, but he'll be ready
for the season. Alex Young with back

854
01:05:27.840 --> 01:05:30.519
sornis he was the first guy that
was hurt, remember that last week.

855
01:05:30.800 --> 01:05:34.679
Missed a few days. Feeling better. Could resume throwing soon. What about

856
01:05:34.719 --> 01:05:39.360
general soreness? Has he shown up
yet? I think it's all over the

857
01:05:39.360 --> 01:05:43.239
place down there line. I think
it's catch up. He'll be General soreness

858
01:05:43.239 --> 01:05:46.159
will show up here in just a
little bit. Also, Ken Brew Yukon

859
01:05:46.639 --> 01:05:51.840
is the unanimous number one this week
in the AP College Basketball Poll. Houston

860
01:05:51.840 --> 01:05:56.320
is second. Purdue is down a
spot the third after they got beat yesterday

861
01:05:56.400 --> 01:06:00.960
at Ohio State. Twenty one and
four. Dayton Flyers remained sixteenth this week.

862
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:06.199
Kentucky jumps five spots to seventeenth.
Seventeenth correct for a second week in

863
01:06:06.239 --> 01:06:11.960
a row. Dayton starred Deron Holmes
the second Atlantic Ten Conference Player of the

864
01:06:11.960 --> 01:06:15.480
week. Good Holmes averaged twenty six
and a half points a game and ten

865
01:06:15.559 --> 01:06:19.800
rebounds and flyer victories over to Caine
and Fordham. I mentioned Daytona. The

866
01:06:19.880 --> 01:06:25.599
rain delayed Daytona five hundred set for
four o'clock today. The Infinity opener was

867
01:06:25.599 --> 01:06:29.480
supposed to go at eleven am.
They have now pushed that back to after

868
01:06:29.599 --> 01:06:32.800
nine o'clock tonight because of early rain. Wait a minute, So the five

869
01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:38.039
hundred will be before the Infinity race. Correct, And there's some guys are

870
01:06:38.079 --> 01:06:42.000
gonna run both, So they're gonna
be They're gonna be racing for like eight

871
01:06:42.159 --> 01:06:45.519
nine hours into the night at Daytona. Well, they may not be any

872
01:06:45.519 --> 01:06:50.159
defense in those races. Maybe not, I don't know, but wow,

873
01:06:50.679 --> 01:06:55.079
let's see. Uh, let's see
what else is going on here. How

874
01:06:55.119 --> 01:07:00.280
about FC Cincinnati takes on Cavalier FC
Thursday, Ken Brew, as you know,

875
01:07:00.800 --> 01:07:03.920
first round of the Conker Calf champions
Cup Series. That's not here,

876
01:07:04.440 --> 01:07:08.280
No, it's in Jamaica. Yeah. Well, I would hope because it's

877
01:07:08.320 --> 01:07:11.679
not going to be very warm here. MLS, well it better get warm

878
01:07:11.760 --> 01:07:17.320
Sunday because it's the Orange and Blues
MLS home openers Sunday versus Toronto. How

879
01:07:17.360 --> 01:07:23.760
about that they're already they already starting
soccer it's unbelievable and believable that this is.

880
01:07:23.760 --> 01:07:26.559
I think they just stopped playing fifteen
to twenty minutes ago, right from

881
01:07:26.639 --> 01:07:29.719
last I think I think they did. I think they the supporters shield was

882
01:07:29.719 --> 01:07:32.679
here about two weeks ago, and
and then they come back, you know,

883
01:07:32.719 --> 01:07:35.599
they go to training camp and then
here they are again. They don't

884
01:07:35.599 --> 01:07:40.000
play defense in the MLS. Yeah, I mean they don't have too much

885
01:07:40.239 --> 01:07:45.199
scoring they had last night, but
NFL ken Brew the franchise tag window opens

886
01:07:45.239 --> 01:07:48.719
tomorrow. I can't and the runs
runs through March the fifth. If you

887
01:07:48.760 --> 01:07:55.440
could open that window, get that
franchise tag, breeze that exciting, and

888
01:07:55.559 --> 01:07:59.679
I guess T. Higgins is going
to get that here pretty soon. Higgins

889
01:07:59.880 --> 01:08:01.559
go make a lot of money next
year. We can go as a contract

890
01:08:01.639 --> 01:08:09.119
or not. Bengals special teams assistant
Cold Anderson is off to the Tennessee Titans,

891
01:08:09.119 --> 01:08:14.159
and Brian Callahan is the new special
teams coordinator for the Titans. Remember

892
01:08:14.159 --> 01:08:18.760
this guy Paul Gunther, Yeah,
he's joined Mike Zimber in Dallas as the

893
01:08:18.800 --> 01:08:26.399
Cowboys defensive run game coordinator. Wow, so they got run game coordinators and

894
01:08:26.439 --> 01:08:31.159
assistants to special teams coaches unbelievable.
And then also the Buffalo Bills have name

895
01:08:31.239 --> 01:08:36.199
a man of Moeller, Matt Edwards, as their assistant defensive line coach.

896
01:08:36.920 --> 01:08:41.800
Wow. Wow, everybody's got an
assistant sake, I don't have an assistant.

897
01:08:41.840 --> 01:08:44.479
I don't know. I don't know. I think you know what we

898
01:08:44.520 --> 01:08:47.319
need here. We need here a
special teams coordinator at the Big one.

899
01:08:48.239 --> 01:08:51.439
You think we could get one of
those? Uh no, no way,

900
01:08:51.520 --> 01:08:56.000
not no, no, not in
the h not in the current status of

901
01:08:56.039 --> 01:08:59.960
the financial problems there. So there's
no way we could get a special teams

902
01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:01.880
coordinator at the Big One. I
don't know. I just you know,

903
01:09:02.680 --> 01:09:05.239
I just want to see people who
haven't seen in two or three weeks,

904
01:09:06.720 --> 01:09:12.880
weeks, by month's years, I
mean something. I mean. Also high

905
01:09:12.920 --> 01:09:16.439

907
01:09:21.039 --> 01:09:27.920
this. Simon Kenton senior Gabriella Ocassio
wins the one hundred and forty five pound

908
01:09:27.960 --> 01:09:32.600
title. She went forty six and
oh in her senior season. How about

909
01:09:32.640 --> 01:09:36.239
that. That's getting it done in
high school and we also getting it done

910
01:09:36.279 --> 01:09:41.840
and we also say congratulations to my
cousin Jane Keller. Oh, now we're

911
01:09:41.840 --> 01:09:46.199
talking about family member these. She
just retired after forty five years at Macy's.

912
01:09:46.640 --> 01:09:50.239
What did she do. She was
in the tax department, in the

913
01:09:50.279 --> 01:09:56.000
tax department. Correct, did she
prepare your return? Seg? No,

914
01:09:55.680 --> 01:09:59.199
No, she saw all my stuff
that I bought at Macey Eastman's. So

915
01:09:59.239 --> 01:10:03.159
she was with me before it was
federated. Correct, So she's a lifer,

916
01:10:03.479 --> 01:10:08.079
correct and correct, done for years, forty five years. Well,

917
01:10:08.119 --> 01:10:11.600
congratulations to her, that's what amen. And also we say congrats to Miami

918
01:10:11.680 --> 01:10:15.479
University volleyball coach Carolyn Condon. Yes, who announced that in October this was

919
01:10:15.560 --> 01:10:19.039
going she was going to retire after
the twenty twenty three season. Yes,

920
01:10:19.119 --> 01:10:25.039
well, she completed her fortieth season, leading the RedHawks program into forty four

921
01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:30.880
seasons and the college head coach seven
and eighty one wins. She is the

922
01:10:30.960 --> 01:10:35.079
longest tenured current Division one coach in
the nation. I did a little you

923
01:10:35.079 --> 01:10:40.479
know, they had a big bankwood
for her a few months ago. Yeah,

924
01:10:40.520 --> 01:10:43.560
and they asked me to do a
little video tribute, you know,

925
01:10:44.199 --> 01:10:47.439
And I did it wearing my Ohio
University pullover. That I have here.

926
01:10:47.680 --> 01:10:51.279
Oh I tanned the camera down to
show the logo, and apparently I was

927
01:10:51.399 --> 01:10:57.880
roundly booed at that function. But
as I quickly edited my tribute, well,

928
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:00.880
you gotta let me show this because
like you beat Ohio University every time

929
01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:05.760
you played it, Give me a
little sum here, right. Coach Condent

930
01:11:05.960 --> 01:11:14.760
was honored with a was given an
honorary degree during Saturday's Miami game in basketball.

931
01:11:14.800 --> 01:11:17.239
So congratulations to the coach. That's
a heck of a tribute. Amen,

932
01:11:17.800 --> 01:11:21.239
that's a heck of a career right
there. So what else anything else

933
01:11:21.279 --> 01:11:28.359
say? I'm still still, you
know, trying to decipher the defense and

934
01:11:28.520 --> 01:11:31.159
last night's NBA All Star Game.
Glad I didn't stay up and watch that

935
01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:34.640
mess. You know who would have
fit right in in that game? Willie

936
01:11:34.960 --> 01:11:40.000
Yes, because he never plays a
defense. Dude had one assist in his

937
01:11:40.199 --> 01:11:44.960
entire high spaking career. Called it
a mistake exactly yeah, he gave the

938
01:11:45.000 --> 01:11:47.399
ball and the other guy shout,
what, don't do that again? He

939
01:11:47.479 --> 01:11:53.319
called the guy exactly exactly right.
So I don't know, but we'll see

940
01:11:53.359 --> 01:11:57.520
what happens. What's uh? I
don't think there's no other All Star games?

941
01:11:57.520 --> 01:12:01.199
Going on. Is there the NHL
had Toronto, NBA head to Indianapolis.

942
01:12:01.399 --> 01:12:04.640
It's over. Uh. I think
that's about it. Seg get us

943
01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:08.680
out of the Stewge Report, because
I've got a guy here that's telling me

944
01:12:08.760 --> 01:12:13.560
one in five Americans are smoking dope
right now. So let's see, wow,

945
01:12:13.680 --> 01:12:17.000
hitting here, hitting things early.
Huh. I'm here. We got

946
01:12:17.079 --> 01:12:20.840
Drew at the controls. Yes,
and we got two sales guys. So

947
01:12:21.199 --> 01:12:27.800
one of the two of us,
two of us are probably high ken Brew

948
01:12:27.800 --> 01:12:32.199
and honer of this beautiful President's day. We leave you with the immortal words

949
01:12:32.239 --> 01:12:38.479
of the Stoode Report. Avery bangs
it off the rim, no good rebound,

950
01:12:38.560 --> 01:12:44.600
chased down by Skillings and the buzzer
sounds. Cincinnati wins it. Seventy

951
01:12:44.720 --> 01:12:49.079
six, seventy four. Has the
bear Cats complete the regular season sweep?

952
01:12:49.399 --> 01:12:53.880
How the uc F tights there?
You go? Yeah? Bad at all?

953
01:12:54.119 --> 01:12:58.359
Yeah, that wasn't beat at all? Yeah all right? Seg yes

954
01:12:58.399 --> 01:13:01.840
their ken Brew? You need you
see in a little bit now coming up

955
01:13:01.880 --> 01:13:05.880
next, one five Americans are smoking
dope as we speak. What's going on

956
01:13:05.920 --> 01:13:13.039
with our country? We'll talk about
that next on seven hundred WLW meanwile in

957
01:13:13.119 --> 01:13:16.880
mean chregy forest. A beautiful woman
stands next to up beanstalk. I'm waiting

958
01:13:16.920 --> 01:13:21.439
for Jack. He had these magic
beans, threw this stupid bean stalk and

959
01:13:21.520 --> 01:13:25.960
climbed it. Does he know there's
a giant up there? I doubt it?

960
01:13:26.079 --> 01:13:29.600
Then what are you doing? I'm
listening to Eddie and Rocky. They're

961
01:13:29.640 --> 01:13:33.840
smart and funny everything Jack isn't.
Then why wait for him? The Beanstalk's

962
01:13:33.880 --> 01:13:39.319
not the only thing the magic made
bigger. Eddie and Rocky give your day

963
01:13:39.439 --> 01:13:45.039
a fairy tale ending Eddie and rock
this afternoon to three on seven hundred WLW.

964
01:13:45.119 --> 01:13:46.560
Men, this is Jeff for Tri
State Men's Health. And though I

965
01:13:46.640 --> 01:13:51.119
generally talk about medicine and effective treatments
for a rectile dysfunction and other men's sexual

966
01:13:51.119 --> 01:13:56.039
health issues too, I'm like an
old woman BLUs and I'm like a young

967
01:13:56.079 --> 01:14:04.399
girl's squeal. I want to be
the baby young young I'm hit. I'm

968
01:14:04.520 --> 01:14:12.279
bad of the bowl, bad the
bone of the bowl. All right tooa

969
01:14:12.359 --> 01:14:15.119
wait, welcome back the average American
and for the great American. On this

970
01:14:15.239 --> 01:14:23.119
President's Day twenty twenty four. Are
you high? Just asking because apparently apparently

971
01:14:23.880 --> 01:14:27.680
one in five of us, one
in five of us now smoke marijuana.

972
01:14:28.079 --> 01:14:34.960
Americans record marijuana smoking has more than
doubled since twenty thirteen when Gallup first asked

973
01:14:35.199 --> 01:14:43.079
the question in its Annual Consumption Habits. Age is significant factor in smoking.

974
01:14:43.880 --> 01:14:47.600
About a quarter of young adults ages
eighteen to thirty four say they have smoked

975
01:14:47.600 --> 01:14:55.079
marijuana twenty six percent, but it
falls to eleven percent for those age fifty

976
01:14:55.119 --> 01:14:58.119
five and older. Well, you
would think those aged fifty five and older

977
01:14:58.119 --> 01:15:00.840
who would be lighting up a little
more, they got more time to burn,

978
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:02.920
no pun intended. I mean,
you know that that's into the retirement

979
01:15:02.960 --> 01:15:09.840
crowd there. But the fact of
the matter is several states, including the

980
01:15:09.880 --> 01:15:16.600
state of Ohio, have legalized marijuana, and places like Colorado, which was

981
01:15:16.640 --> 01:15:20.760
a forefront forerunner of this, Washington, Alaska, New Jersey, New York,

982
01:15:20.840 --> 01:15:28.560
Connecticut, Maryland, all of these
states have legalized recreational marijuana, and

983
01:15:28.640 --> 01:15:33.560
apparently it's becoming more and more of, if not an issue, a trend

984
01:15:33.680 --> 01:15:39.680
in these states. But really and
truly is that a very large number.

985
01:15:40.279 --> 01:15:44.680
Five. A separate question found that
half of adults fifty percent of us say

986
01:15:44.680 --> 01:15:48.199
that we've at least tried marijuana.
Here now is somebody who's not only tried

987
01:15:48.239 --> 01:15:54.840
marijuana half the world thanks he invented
it. Jerry Joyner is an outspoken advocate

988
01:15:54.920 --> 01:15:58.920
for the marijuana industry, host of
a TV show on a podcast called Weed

989
01:15:59.000 --> 01:16:01.600
and Whiskey, and he's standing by
to join us right now here on seven

990
01:16:01.680 --> 01:16:06.079
hundred wl WN. Jerry Joyder,
how are you on this glorious Monday.

991
01:16:08.239 --> 01:16:14.600
I'm doing any better? I'd need
a twin brother, did you I have?

992
01:16:15.199 --> 01:16:17.680
I have THAC in the system,
though you have THAC in your system?

993
01:16:17.720 --> 01:16:23.279
Okay? Is it legal? I
mean there's certain states where it's legal,

994
01:16:24.359 --> 01:16:27.119
and that's okay. By the way, I heard you. You mentioned

995
01:16:27.119 --> 01:16:30.319
me on your last podcast. Is
that right? I did? At the

996
01:16:30.399 --> 01:16:33.800
end of the podcast, I said, make sure you go to Imjmandett dot

997
01:16:33.840 --> 01:16:39.439
com and listen to me and Kim
Burwe from Cincinnati on seven hundred WLW and

998
01:16:40.159 --> 01:16:42.720
give you a little puck there.
How about that? That was very nice

999
01:16:42.720 --> 01:16:46.600
to you, Jerry. I appreciate
that now twenty percent one in five Americans

1000
01:16:47.119 --> 01:16:50.720
are smoking right now smoking marijuana.
Maybe a little bit more than that.

1001
01:16:50.760 --> 01:16:55.279
It's a holiday, as you well
know. But question, do you think

1002
01:16:55.319 --> 01:16:58.880
that number is right? About twenty
percent of us are smoking right now.

1003
01:17:00.039 --> 01:17:03.760
Yeah, I think that twenty percent
number for smoking ken is a is a

1004
01:17:03.760 --> 01:17:09.880
fairly accurate number. But Gallup,
who's a great survey taker, a poll

1005
01:17:09.960 --> 01:17:15.439
taker, didn't ask the correct question. It shouldn't be smoking marijuana. Are

1006
01:17:15.479 --> 01:17:20.880
you ingesting some form of THC product? Because gummies are huge, And when

1007
01:17:20.960 --> 01:17:24.600
you say smoked, my wife would
say, no, I don't smoke marijuana,

1008
01:17:24.680 --> 01:17:29.880
but she ate a gummy last night, and and and and so it's

1009
01:17:29.920 --> 01:17:32.079
not It's the same thing, right, I mean, it does the same

1010
01:17:32.119 --> 01:17:36.720
way. It's it's THC that gets
into your body, that's regulated by that

1011
01:17:36.800 --> 01:17:42.479
indol cannabinoid system. Okay, But
so when we when we ask these polling

1012
01:17:42.560 --> 01:17:45.319
questions, I can I can tell
you dozens of friends of mine that say,

1013
01:17:45.359 --> 01:17:47.920
no, I don't smoke marijuana if
somebody asked them. But if you

1014
01:17:47.960 --> 01:17:50.439
said, well, do you eat
a gummy that's got THC in it?

1015
01:17:50.479 --> 01:17:54.199
That does the same thing as smoking
marijuana, just takes a little longer.

1016
01:17:54.239 --> 01:17:56.319
This. Oh yeah, I do
one of those every night to go to

1017
01:17:56.319 --> 01:18:00.439
sleep or when my back's hurting.
So so I think the use of a

1018
01:18:00.640 --> 01:18:04.760
cannabis or a THC product, especially
CBD products are huge, but even THC

1019
01:18:05.079 --> 01:18:10.159
if the numbers are much higher.
If you drilled down in how people are

1020
01:18:10.199 --> 01:18:13.800
actually using these things now, Ken, Now it says about a quarter of

1021
01:18:14.039 --> 01:18:17.239
young adults the eighteen to thirty four
crowd smoke marijuana about twenty six percent,

1022
01:18:17.319 --> 01:18:21.399
but it drops all the way down
to eleven percent for those of US aged

1023
01:18:21.399 --> 01:18:25.960
at fifty five and older. I
would think it would be I think that

1024
01:18:26.039 --> 01:18:30.039
number fifty five and older would be
it would be larger. I mean fifty

1025
01:18:30.079 --> 01:18:31.680
five and older. You gotta take
it. I think it's thirty or thirty

1026
01:18:31.680 --> 01:18:34.680
five. I think it's thirty or
thirty five percent. If you added in,

1027
01:18:34.760 --> 01:18:40.000
are you using a THC coming,
Are you using a THC pincher?

1028
01:18:40.279 --> 01:18:43.800
Are you using a THC cream that
might not get you high, but it

1029
01:18:43.800 --> 01:18:47.159
gets THC into your into your system? Or are you doing edibles? Because

1030
01:18:47.199 --> 01:18:50.319
so many people look, I'm sixty
four, I'll be sixty four on four

1031
01:18:50.319 --> 01:18:57.399
to twenty. I don't love that
much. Yeah, yeah, apparently I

1032
01:18:57.439 --> 01:19:00.399
was born to do this, Ken, but I don't even smoke as much

1033
01:19:00.439 --> 01:19:05.520
now. My patrons say Wiman Nelson, he hardly ever smoked marijuana, but

1034
01:19:05.640 --> 01:19:10.000
he takes edibles every day because as
you get older, your lungs, you

1035
01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:13.039
know, it's just not as it's
not as healthy for you, but your

1036
01:19:13.039 --> 01:19:15.840
body kind of wants this THC in
there. Depending on how much you need

1037
01:19:16.159 --> 01:19:20.079
to regulate your indocannabinoid systems, some
people don't need any at all. I've

1038
01:19:20.119 --> 01:19:23.159
got a lot of friends and say, man, I don't use that.

1039
01:19:23.199 --> 01:19:25.640
I don't need that. And then
I got some people that use it,

1040
01:19:25.680 --> 01:19:30.399
maybe too much. So again I
want to get a handle on this because

1041
01:19:31.319 --> 01:19:36.000
it apparently is growing. I mean, it was twenty thirteen, it was

1042
01:19:36.039 --> 01:19:42.159
seven percent. Now it's twenty percent. I would imagine even if twenty percent

1043
01:19:42.199 --> 01:19:45.000
is the real number, and we
both say it isn't because it only takes

1044
01:19:45.039 --> 01:19:50.399
into account people that light up as
opposed to ingest, let's just say twenty

1045
01:19:50.439 --> 01:19:56.039
percent is the right number. It
would stand a reason that when they do

1046
01:19:56.119 --> 01:19:59.479
this again, I don't know,
five years from now, that twenty percent

1047
01:20:00.239 --> 01:20:03.880
probably would be up around thirty.
Right. I think you're right, you

1048
01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:10.319
know. I think young people they
start off with smoking and are vaping.

1049
01:20:10.520 --> 01:20:13.960
Vaping's a big thing now with the
young folks, okay, and as they

1050
01:20:13.960 --> 01:20:16.159
get smarter and older, they realize, hey, I like the way this

1051
01:20:16.399 --> 01:20:19.199
makes my body feel. I like
it better than alcohol. A lot of

1052
01:20:19.279 --> 01:20:24.479
kids aren't drinking alcohol now because they
started using these THAC products. But I

1053
01:20:24.479 --> 01:20:28.279
think they gravitate a little bit away
from the smoking and using it in every

1054
01:20:28.319 --> 01:20:32.239
fashions drinking THC. Ken. I
tried one of these cans with weed in

1055
01:20:32.279 --> 01:20:36.520
it, and I couldn't keep it
lit. Okay, but this is huge

1056
01:20:36.560 --> 01:20:41.239
where people are now drinking just like
they were a beer something that's got THC.

1057
01:20:41.359 --> 01:20:43.840
It's a low dose, so you
don't get zonked out of your mind

1058
01:20:44.359 --> 01:20:46.399
like drinking one or two beers.
Well, you said you couldn't keep it

1059
01:20:46.439 --> 01:20:50.039
lit. You have to like put
it over a flame or something. What

1060
01:20:50.079 --> 01:20:54.840
are you talking about there, Jerry, I've tried to be funny about lighting

1061
01:20:54.880 --> 01:20:58.840
that can. Maybe I had too
many gummy Hey, that shows you might

1062
01:20:58.920 --> 01:21:00.840
the depth of my knowledge all of
this. I'm thinking maybe like you got

1063
01:21:00.880 --> 01:21:06.359
to put it over like a campfire
and then drink it. I Total Wines

1064
01:21:06.399 --> 01:21:12.439
has just got to deal with several
different brands of having THC infused beverages in

1065
01:21:12.680 --> 01:21:15.760
two hundred and fifty stores here in
Texas, as in up in Minnesota.

1066
01:21:15.800 --> 01:21:21.119
It's huge. The drinks, and
the youth are starting to gravitate towards these

1067
01:21:21.199 --> 01:21:25.279
drinks, And it seems like as
we're a little bit older, we're gravitating

1068
01:21:25.319 --> 01:21:28.840
towards the gummies. But I don't
see it ever getting up real much higher

1069
01:21:28.920 --> 01:21:30.600
than it is now. For the
smoking aspect of it, I think we

1070
01:21:30.720 --> 01:21:35.479
kind of see that kind of camping
out because there's a lot of negative things

1071
01:21:35.520 --> 01:21:38.640
that go along with the smoking of
it. Well, so a lot of

1072
01:21:38.640 --> 01:21:41.000
time that's the only way you could
get THC in your system. Well,

1073
01:21:41.039 --> 01:21:45.720
no, wait a minute, now, recreational marijuana it's not legal where you

1074
01:21:45.800 --> 01:21:50.920
live. Is it regulated? Marijuana
is not. You can get in twenty

1075
01:21:50.920 --> 01:21:55.920
four states. Ohio, you've got
the most recent state that came on board

1076
01:21:55.960 --> 01:22:00.239
with your last election. Can adult
use is legal Hexas. You can get

1077
01:22:00.319 --> 01:22:04.920
a federally legal due to the farm
Build a Hip twenty eighteen farm bill,

1078
01:22:05.359 --> 01:22:09.600
a pack of book of buzz gummies
or a buzz me up drink that has

1079
01:22:09.640 --> 01:22:12.640
THC. You a test positive for
a drug test, you get a little

1080
01:22:12.640 --> 01:22:15.000
buzz from it. And there are
two hundred and fifty stores here in Texas.

1081
01:22:15.039 --> 01:22:18.159
They're everywhere, not just here.
You can go online, Can and

1082
01:22:18.439 --> 01:22:24.960
order what it's called THHCA. It
looks like marijuana that you smoke. It

1083
01:22:25.079 --> 01:22:29.720
smelled marijuana that you smoke, and
for most people it gives them a psychotropic

1084
01:22:29.760 --> 01:22:31.920
defect. Forty five states. You
can order that online. Heavy. No,

1085
01:22:32.000 --> 01:22:35.319
I did no idea. Ain't that
America? Ain't ain't that America.

1086
01:22:35.359 --> 01:22:38.840
Now, let me ask you a
question. I think you and I had

1087
01:22:38.880 --> 01:22:41.720
this discussion. I want to know
if you put any thought into this,

1088
01:22:42.439 --> 01:22:48.199
the next great money to be made
will be a perfume, body spray,

1089
01:22:48.640 --> 01:22:54.640
or a version of weed that doesn't
smell like weed and sticks on you.

1090
01:22:54.720 --> 01:22:58.279
Because about four or five times this
weekend I was out and about walking in

1091
01:22:58.319 --> 01:23:02.119
the Greater Cincinnati area and somebody would
come by me and I knew instantly that

1092
01:23:02.119 --> 01:23:05.920
that person had been blowing dope.
I think we need to come up with

1093
01:23:05.960 --> 01:23:10.359
an idea, something that when you're
done, you either spray it on you,

1094
01:23:10.640 --> 01:23:15.880
or there's something about the paper or
something where it doesn't smell like skunk.

1095
01:23:15.960 --> 01:23:19.279
Whoever comes up with a an anecdote
to that smell is going to be

1096
01:23:19.359 --> 01:23:24.800
the next great billionaire in this country. Would you agree? Well, I

1097
01:23:24.880 --> 01:23:27.800
think I think you got a good
point there, and that'd be a great

1098
01:23:27.840 --> 01:23:31.439
invention, whether it's cannabis or nicotine. That's a kind of an offensive smell.

1099
01:23:31.479 --> 01:23:34.680
I smoked cigarettes for thirty seven years, and thank you, I finally

1100
01:23:34.720 --> 01:23:40.119
quit smoking those cigarettes. And when
I'm around somebody now that's a cigarette smoker,

1101
01:23:40.199 --> 01:23:43.000
I'm kind of offended by that smell. And I know that it's a

1102
01:23:43.079 --> 01:23:45.119
turn off with people with the with
the marijuana. So people should do that

1103
01:23:45.119 --> 01:23:48.600
where it's not going to offend other
people. Or as I mentioned earlier,

1104
01:23:48.640 --> 01:23:53.439
this bay thing that's become so popular, so much of that kim doesn't have

1105
01:23:53.520 --> 01:23:57.000
an odor. Well, when you
asked about the next big money, major

1106
01:23:57.039 --> 01:24:05.399
thing involving weed, there's something they've
uncovered called thhc VCV. It makes you

1107
01:24:05.520 --> 01:24:11.359
not be hungry. It's an appetite
suppress it ken we smoke marijuana to get

1108
01:24:11.359 --> 01:24:15.279
the monkeys. Well, you know
what hey think about this? That surgery

1109
01:24:15.479 --> 01:24:19.720
that a lot of people have that
you know, they go in they tie

1110
01:24:19.720 --> 01:24:25.720
your stomach up or whatever, very
expensive surgery. If you've got something on

1111
01:24:25.760 --> 01:24:30.039
the market that can curtail appetite like
that, it may revolutionize the medical industry.

1112
01:24:30.920 --> 01:24:33.520
Way it's sure. Could you know
that it's amazing the things that they

1113
01:24:33.560 --> 01:24:39.199
are finding out about this plant that
are good things. This appetite suppressant strain

1114
01:24:39.399 --> 01:24:44.039
called THHCV is really starting to come
on kind of strong as being an appetite

1115
01:24:44.039 --> 01:24:47.520
suppressant. So do whatever thought that
there are so many people with illnesses that

1116
01:24:47.920 --> 01:24:53.000
get they do get benefit from this. They say that their pains going away.

1117
01:24:53.000 --> 01:24:56.520
Our veterans say it helps them with
their PTSD and their depression. So

1118
01:24:56.840 --> 01:25:00.840
I'm excited more and more research is
being done about what and be good about

1119
01:25:00.880 --> 01:25:03.479
this plant and making sure what's bad
about this plant we avoid. Well,

1120
01:25:03.479 --> 01:25:06.520
there's some states that will never legalize
it. You realize that, right,

1121
01:25:06.560 --> 01:25:09.720
I mean, it's just not far
one of the last ones down here in

1122
01:25:09.760 --> 01:25:12.680
Texas. Well, I don't sense
now. I mean, I have no

1123
01:25:12.720 --> 01:25:16.239
idea what the politics are in various
other states, but I would say when

1124
01:25:16.279 --> 01:25:20.000
you get into some states like Alabama, Mississippi, it may be it may

1125
01:25:20.039 --> 01:25:25.520
be a while before it's legalized.
You know that you brought up a good

1126
01:25:25.520 --> 01:25:30.520
point, but that that that Delta
nine totally legal THHC from because of the

1127
01:25:30.600 --> 01:25:38.840
Hemp Bill is available in Alabama,
in Mississippi, uh Idaho, and Nebraska.

1128
01:25:38.880 --> 01:25:42.319
I believe are the only two states
that you're not allowed to sell excuse

1129
01:25:42.319 --> 01:25:45.479
me, in Colorado that you're not
allowed to sell the Delta nine products.

1130
01:25:45.640 --> 01:25:50.199
Uh. While cannabis is illegal in
Texas because hemp is legal because of this

1131
01:25:50.279 --> 01:25:55.760
farm bill. It's a probably four
billion dollar industry. You guys in Ohio

1132
01:25:55.840 --> 01:26:00.039
will be up giving Michigan competition shortly
because all your oh your patients don't have

1133
01:26:00.079 --> 01:26:03.479
to drive there to get some cannabis. Now, yeah, well in September,

1134
01:26:03.520 --> 01:26:06.279
I guess, well, I guess
I guess we'll see. But yeah,

1135
01:26:06.319 --> 01:26:10.000
I know a lot of people that
we're doing this. We're chatting with

1136
01:26:10.039 --> 01:26:14.880
a j man, Jerry Joyner.
We're talking about this Gallup poll that came

1137
01:26:14.920 --> 01:26:19.000
out study research that about one in
five people now are smoking on a daily

1138
01:26:19.039 --> 01:26:23.319
basis. Jerry thinks that number is
greater than that because it doesn't get into

1139
01:26:23.319 --> 01:26:27.800
gummies, which would drive that number
up, and it's more prevalent among younger

1140
01:26:27.840 --> 01:26:30.720
adults eighteen to thirty four than older
adults. As a matter of fact,

1141
01:26:30.760 --> 01:26:36.600
more Democrats are likely than Republicans to
smoke dope Democrats and twenty two percent Republicans

1142
01:26:36.680 --> 01:26:42.439
at twelve percent, Independence at seventeen
percent. So it cuts across political lines

1143
01:26:42.439 --> 01:26:45.479
with this as well, Jerry,
But I guess, I guess the big

1144
01:26:45.520 --> 01:26:48.760
thing here is Gallup is actually researching
this, and it will be interesting,

1145
01:26:48.800 --> 01:26:53.319
I think in the future if they
do a similar study, and I'm sure

1146
01:26:53.359 --> 01:26:58.560
Gallup does, if they do a
similar study comparing alcohol use, because I

1147
01:26:58.760 --> 01:27:02.359
kind of think, and again it's
anecdotal, it's not no research that I

1148
01:27:02.399 --> 01:27:06.680
have in front of me. This
number will go up for the use of

1149
01:27:06.720 --> 01:27:13.399
cannabis and it will go down proportionally
for the use of alcohol. And I

1150
01:27:13.399 --> 01:27:17.159
would not be surprised within the next
fifteen years to see those two numbers intersect.

1151
01:27:17.199 --> 01:27:20.800
What about you, I agree with
you that we're seeing that now.

1152
01:27:20.800 --> 01:27:25.920
They're surveys and reports that are showing
us, especially with young people. Young

1153
01:27:25.960 --> 01:27:30.199
people that are using cannabis aren't using
as much alcohol. But the real thing

1154
01:27:30.279 --> 01:27:33.159
that I think cannabis is starting to
do, it's making a dent into the

1155
01:27:33.199 --> 01:27:38.720
amount of opioid use that's going on
in America, which we know how huge

1156
01:27:38.800 --> 01:27:41.760
a problem this is. My mother
in law, seventy five years old,

1157
01:27:41.800 --> 01:27:45.600
would never smoke a joint ken.
She's been taking the hydra codone for her

1158
01:27:45.640 --> 01:27:48.880
back pain. She started taking some
of these bucketbus gummies and she doesn't take

1159
01:27:48.920 --> 01:27:53.199
that hydro hydro cotone at night to
go to sleep, and I think that's

1160
01:27:53.199 --> 01:27:56.680
a real positive thing. Well,
j Man, what is your next podcast,

1161
01:27:56.800 --> 01:27:59.760
your next TV show, Weed and
Whiskey and what will the topic be

1162
01:27:59.840 --> 01:28:02.960
about? Well, this Friday,
we got one that drops at four twenty

1163
01:28:03.199 --> 01:28:08.359
and we're gonna have History Written in
Stone. We're going to do a review

1164
01:28:08.760 --> 01:28:12.239
of a show that we produced called
History Written in Stone. There's eight episodes

1165
01:28:12.439 --> 01:28:14.960
and we're going to show you some
bits from both of those. And are

1166
01:28:14.960 --> 01:28:17.800
you sober when you do these shows, Jay manor or are you like on

1167
01:28:17.920 --> 01:28:20.920
something? Or how do they what
state of mind do you win when these

1168
01:28:20.920 --> 01:28:26.279
happened? Well, well when when
when you say sober? Okay, we've

1169
01:28:26.319 --> 01:28:29.960
covered a lot of bases there.
I don't take too many nips or tops

1170
01:28:30.000 --> 01:28:34.479
of the whiskey or any type of
beverages during the daytime. I didn't stop

1171
01:28:34.479 --> 01:28:41.640
you. I'm not a cop.
I didn't stop you right now. Yes,

1172
01:28:41.960 --> 01:28:43.760
she meant to me. At a
couple of those, she gives me

1173
01:28:43.760 --> 01:28:46.039
the stink I once I'm if I
try to order a third one but I

1174
01:28:46.199 --> 01:28:50.119
literally am eating a gummy or smoking
a little bit of a joint all day

1175
01:28:50.159 --> 01:28:55.800
long. And that's why you're You're
perennially in a good mood from from every

1176
01:28:55.880 --> 01:28:59.279
time I call you on the phone
or get ahold of you through text or

1177
01:28:59.279 --> 01:29:00.560
email or whatever. You always in
a good mood. So maybe that has

1178
01:29:00.600 --> 01:29:02.880
something to do with it. Jay
was soon. How do you have so

1179
01:29:02.960 --> 01:29:06.840
much energy you're supposed to be slouching
on the couch. Just doesn't affect me

1180
01:29:06.920 --> 01:29:10.479
that way. I've got a lot
of friends that it does. And this

1181
01:29:10.600 --> 01:29:13.680
is your job, right Your job
is we didn't whisky the podcast. You

1182
01:29:13.680 --> 01:29:16.000
don't have any other job, do
you? Well? Yeah, I kind

1183
01:29:16.000 --> 01:29:19.439
of do. I promote products for

1217
01:31:28.199 --> 01:31:30.680

I'm at my twelve step meeting. Really,

1218
01:31:30.920 --> 01:31:33.840
I love listening to his show at

1221
01:31:41.479 --> 01:31:45.479
anytime is the right time first loaning. That's what we've been saying Tomorrow morning

1222

at nine on seven hundred WLW and
check out his podcast on the free iHeartRadio

1223
01:31:49.920 --> 01:31:56.680
app. Are you a business owner, CEO or responsible for marketing? If

1224
01:31:56.680 --> 01:32:00.239
you are, I heard media can
help you reach your goals and find new

1225
01:32:00.279 --> 01:32:03.119
customers. People think it is.
Really that's what Dave. Dave Campbell,

1226
01:32:03.119 --> 01:32:05.960
who lived in San Diego for a
lot of years, said, it is

1227
01:32:06.039 --> 01:32:15.359
an absolute paradise place to live.
Pitch fal ball and if you can live

1228
01:32:15.399 --> 01:32:18.439
that long in San Diego, California, and say that about San Point,

1229
01:32:18.479 --> 01:32:23.279
Idaho, your soul on sand Point, Idaho. Oh yeah, because San

1230
01:32:23.319 --> 01:32:28.560
Diego ain't all bad. I bet
they got some pretty good French fat taters

1231
01:32:28.640 --> 01:32:39.000
up there. You think so you
believe that? Hello, quiet, and

1232
01:32:39.039 --> 01:32:46.239
I'm broadcasting. I've been to San
Diego. I've never been to Idaho.

1233
01:32:47.239 --> 01:32:53.119
They got good French fried taters up
there? Uh huh okay, Although I

1234
01:32:51.439 --> 01:32:56.479
uh, I would have to figure
that it's a little cheaper living in Idaho

1235
01:32:56.560 --> 01:33:00.720
than San Diego. I would say, so yes, And let me quickly

1236
01:33:00.760 --> 01:33:04.159
point out I would not want to
live in either place Idaho. Yeah,

1237
01:33:04.279 --> 01:33:06.760
Idaho is not the place for me
either. I mean, I mean,

1238
01:33:06.800 --> 01:33:11.199
I'm sure it's gorgeous, big sky. You know, you got snow in

1239
01:33:11.239 --> 01:33:15.239
the wintertime, it's probably got the
probably like Buffalo, they get the hot

1240
01:33:15.279 --> 01:33:18.159
weather for two weeks and then start
snowing again. And at San Diego it's

1241
01:33:18.279 --> 01:33:23.199
just you know, it's like it's
you're always on vacation, which I don't,

1242
01:33:23.239 --> 01:33:26.239
right, but and then you know, I mean, weather guys out

1243
01:33:26.279 --> 01:33:30.760
there are always right, right,
correct, Yeah, they look outside it's

1244
01:33:30.800 --> 01:33:32.479
so, well, is it going
to be sunny in eighty eighty five?

1245
01:33:32.520 --> 01:33:35.159
Today? I work with a weather
guy once. Yeah, I'm told me

1246
01:33:35.199 --> 01:33:40.319
what he wanted to invent is a
weather rope, a rope, weather rope

1247
01:33:40.560 --> 01:33:43.479
rope. It's a piece of rope. And he was going to say he's

1248
01:33:43.520 --> 01:33:45.640
going to put his name on it, and you know, is hey,

1249
01:33:45.039 --> 01:33:47.600
here is so and So's weather rope. I said, well, what do

1250
01:33:47.600 --> 01:33:50.039
you do with the weather rope?
He said, What you do is you

1251
01:33:50.119 --> 01:33:54.039
hang it outside a window. I
said, guy, he says, if

1252
01:33:54.079 --> 01:33:57.479
it's if it's blown back and forth, it's windy, if it gets wet,

1253
01:33:57.560 --> 01:34:00.880
it's raining, if it's nice and
dry, it's sunny, and so

1254
01:34:00.960 --> 01:34:03.640
the rope would help you predict the
weather. I said, So that's how

1255
01:34:03.680 --> 01:34:06.640
they do it at five, nine, twelve and nineteen. Huh. You

1256
01:34:06.680 --> 01:34:10.159
know what they do they well,
that's how they do it. They walk

1257
01:34:10.199 --> 01:34:13.560
out the back door, they look
up and they go okay, partly,

1258
01:34:13.600 --> 01:34:18.439
Sonny, No, you know what
that's the secret for Jennifer Ketchmark. I

1259
01:34:18.479 --> 01:34:21.600
didn't know that. I might point
out, that would have been the only

1260
01:34:21.680 --> 01:34:29.239
sports anchor in America, in America
sick that had his own wet BOWLB And

1261
01:34:29.319 --> 01:34:30.760
I don't know why I had that, but it was just in case one

1262
01:34:30.800 --> 01:34:33.760
of the meteorologists you go to the
doctor for that. No, no,

1263
01:34:33.800 --> 01:34:38.359
it's a wet bowl. Meteorology experts
know what I'm talking about. And I

1264
01:34:38.439 --> 01:34:42.760
just had a spare one just in
case the meteorologist at my station had a

1265
01:34:42.800 --> 01:34:45.960
broken wet bowl. Oh okay,
I'm just saying. I looked out for

1266
01:34:46.000 --> 01:34:50.960
all facets of the broadcast ken Brew. They stood reporters of proud service.

1272

1278
01:35:41.199 --> 01:35:45.239
Sports thirteen sixty, two thirty five
with the RNL carriers inside pitch for you,

1279
01:35:45.439 --> 01:35:49.239
Ken Brew. And you know why
it's on thirteen sixty because on seven

1280
01:35:49.359 --> 01:35:55.800
hundred we have uc basketball. That
is correct again. Speaking of basketball,

1281
01:35:56.800 --> 01:36:01.479
yukon unanimous number one this week in
the APE Basketball poll, Houston is second,

1282
01:36:01.479 --> 01:36:05.239
Purdue down to spot the third.
Those Dayton Flyers at twenty one and

1283
01:36:05.359 --> 01:36:13.399
four remained sixteenth This week. Kentucky
jumps five spots to seventeenth, and for

1284
01:36:13.520 --> 01:36:17.079
the second week in a row and
the fifth time this season Dayton's Doron Holmes.

1285
01:36:17.079 --> 01:36:20.560
The second is the Atlantic ten Conference
Player of the Week. That young

1286
01:36:20.600 --> 01:36:25.159
man average twenty six and a half
points for a game and ten rebounds and

1287
01:36:25.239 --> 01:36:30.159
Flyer wins over Ducane and Fordham.
How about that Flyers are on a roll

1288
01:36:30.239 --> 01:36:34.279
to the super Bowl. Now we
got uh, you know, we just

1289
01:36:34.319 --> 01:36:39.560
had Valentine's Day? What last week? Yes, okay, I'm a lover.

1290
01:36:39.960 --> 01:36:45.319
Yep, Travis Kelcey back in the
news. Oh no, spend sixteen

1291
01:36:45.479 --> 01:36:49.720
grand on Tata for Valentine's Day.
Yep, sixteen thousand, putting us all

1292
01:36:49.760 --> 01:36:55.199
to shame. Ken Brew, we
check himself into rehab after that? What

1293
01:36:55.359 --> 01:37:00.800
we do too? He spent two
thousand dollars on bouquet of roses, two

1294
01:37:00.840 --> 01:37:05.800
of them, two and fifty roses
apiece. I think he just went into

1295
01:37:05.840 --> 01:37:11.479
the greenhouse and bought it. Thirty
one hundred dollars on a rose sculpture,

1296
01:37:12.039 --> 01:37:15.680
a rose sculpture, just a sculpture
of a rose. For thirty one hundred.

1297
01:37:15.720 --> 01:37:21.960
He bought luxury I guess luxury brands, and a beret, a handbag

1298
01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:27.279
and a shawl for Miss Swift.
Well, you start picking out clothes for

1299
01:37:27.319 --> 01:37:30.319

get yourself in trouble. Well also that

01:37:30.319 --> 01:37:33.680
next thing is engagement. And then
here we go. Well, here we

1303
01:37:40.800 --> 01:37:44.680

That there are rumors that they're going to

1304
01:37:44.720 --> 01:37:49.720
play the Bengals again, and it
could be maybe at halftime, oh,

1305
01:37:49.880 --> 01:37:55.800
rather than you know, the Kansas
City Marching Band or whatever halftime entertainment that

1306
01:37:55.840 --> 01:38:00.159
they have, marching chiefs, whatever
it is. It's bring out a giant

1307
01:38:00.479 --> 01:38:05.439
heart with roses all around it.
Uh oh, And this is when he's

1308
01:38:05.479 --> 01:38:10.239
gonna want one knee, and here
we go, America, There we go.

just pop that out of nowhere,

1330
01:39:45.920 --> 01:39:48.239
just in case anybody was saying to
themselves, Gee, I wonder who was

1331
01:39:48.239 --> 01:39:53.800
born today? You are mister music. Don't tell anybody you are mister music.

1332
01:39:54.079 --> 01:39:57.479
Keep your feet on the ground and
keep reaching for the stars. You

1333
01:39:57.520 --> 01:39:59.840
write that down. That's pretty good, it is, Oh, you know,

1334
01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:02.439
and ken Brew says, oh,
okay, keep your feet on the

1335
01:40:02.439 --> 01:40:08.239
ground and keep reaching for the stars. What else we got, Seig,

1336
01:40:08.399 --> 01:40:10.920
That's all I got, ken Brew? Well, you know, just having

1337
01:40:10.920 --> 01:40:13.319
you here today with me as a
little slice of heaven, no doubt about

1338
01:40:13.319 --> 01:40:15.720
it. On this President's Today,
who's your favorite? President Gerald Ford?

1339
01:40:16.159 --> 01:40:19.399
Really? You know, I read
this morning in the USA Today. He

1340
01:40:19.479 --> 01:40:24.520
used to be a model before he
got into politics. Right, he is

1341
01:40:24.600 --> 01:40:30.880
the only Eagle Scout that ever became
president of the United States. My favorite

1342
01:40:30.920 --> 01:40:40.319
is probably Abe Lincoln because my namesake
was his postmaster general. Oh really,

1343
01:40:40.359 --> 01:40:45.079
his name was said to no William
Oh, William Dennison. Okay, Okay,

1344
01:40:45.159 --> 01:40:47.840
maybe maybe he was. I don't
know. You know, he was

1345
01:40:47.920 --> 01:40:50.159
quick with the mail, so you
know, something like that. I don't

1346
01:40:50.199 --> 01:40:56.000
know. Someday, get me to
tell the story about my interview with President

1347
01:40:56.039 --> 01:40:58.359
Gerald Ford. Oh, I thought
you were going to say, Abe Lincoln.

1348
01:40:58.399 --> 01:41:00.760
I thought, wait, a minute. Now, that's great at Vale,

1349
01:41:00.760 --> 01:41:04.159
Colorado at the Gerald Ford Celebrity Golf
Classic. Okay, I have to

1350
01:41:04.159 --> 01:41:06.560
tell that something, but I need
time to tell I don't I can't do

1351
01:41:06.640 --> 01:41:10.880
it now right all right, many
years ago. It's another one of my

1352
01:41:11.319 --> 01:41:14.760
close encounters of the third kind.
Seg you stay well. I will visit

1353
01:41:14.800 --> 01:41:17.560
with you again at a date yet
to be determined. You got a ken

1354
01:41:17.600 --> 01:41:21.399
Brew, and please get us out
of the steage report ken Brew in honor

1355
01:41:21.439 --> 01:41:26.600
of today's President's Day. Yes,
we leave you with the immortal words of

1356
01:41:26.640 --> 01:41:31.960
the stood Report. I'm coming down

bit of CT and out. We got

1359
01:41:44.239 --> 01:41:46.760
plenty of places to do. I'm
gonna got a hot Hollywood video crew to

1360
01:41:46.840 --> 01:41:49.720
video tape it. They don't have
to go far. We can do it

1361
01:41:49.760 --> 01:41:58.319

mart get the billy coach. I think

1362
01:41:58.920 --> 01:42:01.880
Marty missus date the cow tempts a
thing will fall and fall on him.

1363
01:42:01.880 --> 01:42:05.600
Marty misses the Cowboy. I can
tell you that, Oh shucks. We

1364
01:42:05.600 --> 01:42:09.680
we didn't even get to the NBA
All Star Game, can brow. Well

1365
01:42:09.680 --> 01:42:13.039
that's a good thing. All the
action on that one. If they were

1366
01:42:13.039 --> 01:42:18.560
in charge of the defense of this
country. Oh, we'd be saying President

1367
01:42:18.640 --> 01:42:24.239
Putin by now you see you said
it? Oh, two forty eight News

1368
01:42:24.319 --> 01:42:34.199
Radio, seven hundred WLW. Meanwhile, in the enchanted forest, snow White

1369
01:42:34.199 --> 01:42:39.520
happily walks the path to a tiny
cottage. Yeah, this angry queen is

1370
01:42:39.560 --> 01:42:43.000
out to get me. So I
hang out with my seven friends. Seven

1371
01:42:43.079 --> 01:42:45.960
friends in one tiny cottage. Yeah, they're sort of small. And what

1372
01:42:46.079 --> 01:42:49.600
did you all do? We listened
to Eddie and Rocky. They get all

1373
01:42:49.640 --> 01:42:54.880
of us laughing. Really well,
everyone but Grumpy. But I could have

1374
01:42:54.960 --> 01:42:59.199
sworn I heard him snickering a couple
of times at and Rocky give your day

1375
01:42:59.239 --> 01:43:04.039
a fairy tae ending Eddie and rock
this afternoon at three on seven hundred WLW.

1376
01:43:04.960 --> 01:43:11.079
In this week's Marketers Report, Dana
Nusbaham, Executive Vice President. A

1377
01:43:11.159 --> 01:43:15.479
former president not just someone who strove
to be the best of the best,

1378
01:43:15.479 --> 01:43:19.399
but someone who achieved the best of
the best. And we're talking about the

1379
01:43:19.439 --> 01:43:25.600
former class president at Stax High School
and the former class president at Notre Dame,

1380
01:43:26.319 --> 01:43:29.840
and that would be the guy that
takes over at the top of the

1381
01:43:29.880 --> 01:43:32.479
hour along with Jason Williams today,
I might point out, and that would

1382
01:43:32.479 --> 01:43:36.239
be our good friend Rockett j Boyman
Rocket. How are you on this glorious

1383
01:43:36.279 --> 01:43:39.880
President's Day? Ken, I am
great, but I must correct you.

1384
01:43:39.960 --> 01:43:44.760
I was beat out for Stax's class
president by Dave Doyle. Dave Doyle,

1385
01:43:45.399 --> 01:43:48.800
Dave Dave's doing all well, he's
doing pretty good. He's like an investment

1386
01:43:48.840 --> 01:43:53.520
banker in Columbus, so he's he's
doing okay. You're not pretty good for

1387
01:43:53.560 --> 01:43:57.279
him? Is it a nasty campaign? Oh yeah, just mud slinging everywhere.

1388
01:43:57.920 --> 01:44:00.880
Were you making like wild promises or
oh I was? I was.

1389
01:44:00.039 --> 01:44:02.760
Yeah. We were going to get
pop machines and the cafe tier, you

1390
01:44:02.760 --> 01:44:05.319
know, all the stuff that the
kids really want. That's what I was

1391
01:44:05.359 --> 01:44:09.680
for. And uh, it didn't
work out. I was beat out by

1392
01:44:09.680 --> 01:44:14.319
a better man. My kid ran
for a class president that is that is

1393
01:44:14.399 --> 01:44:18.800
elementary school. And and his he
said, Dad, Dad, Dad,

1394
01:44:18.840 --> 01:44:23.039
what do you think of the speech? And uh it was it was at

1395
01:44:23.079 --> 01:44:27.239
a it was at Saint Andrews in
Milford, and he began his speech,

1396
01:44:27.560 --> 01:44:31.439
It's morning in Saint Andrews. I
said, did you come up with that

1397
01:44:31.520 --> 01:44:34.760
on your ard? He goes,
oh, I didn't. Did some presidents

1398
01:44:34.760 --> 01:44:36.800
say that? I go, you
know what you ought to do is drop

1399
01:44:36.800 --> 01:44:40.159
out of this race right now is
what you ought to do? Well?

1400
01:44:40.479 --> 01:44:44.279
My uh, my former play by
play guy, I claim Matt Thak his

1401
01:44:44.439 --> 01:44:46.319
kid was in junior high this a
couple of years ago. I was running

1402
01:44:46.359 --> 01:44:49.800
for class president and uh He's like, yeah, he's got a campaign put

1403
01:44:49.840 --> 01:44:54.359
off signs. I'm like, yeah, you know, you know you didn't

1404
01:44:54.359 --> 01:44:57.119
he any money? Can I help
you know with that campaign fund? He

1405
01:44:57.159 --> 01:45:01.680
said, yeah, he's taking donations
like fifty my fifty bucks. How expensive

1406
01:45:01.720 --> 01:45:05.920
a race is this? Because are
in seventh grade? God, oh my

1407
01:45:06.680 --> 01:45:11.800
god. Who was in your mind, not necessarily your lifetime, but in

1408
01:45:11.840 --> 01:45:15.520
your mind the greatest president that we've
had in these United States? Obviously it

1409
01:45:15.560 --> 01:45:19.079
wasn't around, but it's hard to
argue it wasn't Abraham Lincoln, right,

1410
01:45:19.119 --> 01:45:21.960
I mean kept the Union together.
I mean talk about just I mean,

1411
01:45:23.000 --> 01:45:25.119
if you've read books, I mean
I have, like you know, just

1412
01:45:26.439 --> 01:45:30.000
every day of his life was miserable, the country hanging in the balance.

1413
01:45:30.079 --> 01:45:31.960
This is wrong, that's wrong.
The Union is losing the war, can't

1414
01:45:31.960 --> 01:45:35.840
find a general sort of thing,
and then finally he's the country, keeps

1415
01:45:35.840 --> 01:45:42.159
the country together, and what month
two later is killed. So yeah,

1416
01:45:42.560 --> 01:45:45.720
pretty exceptional man. Yeah, there's
been some guys that were duds. There's

1417
01:45:45.760 --> 01:45:48.319
been there's been some guys that were
exceptional. But I think you would be

1418
01:45:48.359 --> 01:45:53.319
hard pressed not to go with Abraham
Lincoln. I you know, it's it's

1419
01:45:53.359 --> 01:45:59.399
funny. I I always look for
like the different off ramp and I like

1420
01:45:59.479 --> 01:46:04.880
Gerald. And the reason why is
you probably weren't even alive, were alive

1421
01:46:05.119 --> 01:46:11.199
after after Watergate. Now, I
was born in eighty so it was long,

1422
01:46:11.600 --> 01:46:15.399
long ways down the road. This
country was teetering, not necessarily on

1423
01:46:15.479 --> 01:46:18.359
anarchy, but belief in the country
as to whether or not there were really

1424
01:46:18.520 --> 01:46:25.319
really was a United States and there
really was uh any any level of justice

1425
01:46:25.319 --> 01:46:28.920
in this country, not unlike where
we are right now. And to his

1426
01:46:29.359 --> 01:46:31.600
political disadvantage, and it cost him, he just said, well, you

1427
01:46:31.640 --> 01:46:34.159
know what, we're we're gonna take
all it. We're going to fix all

1428
01:46:34.199 --> 01:46:38.399
this, We're gonna put you know, we're gonna we're moving past Nixon.

1429
01:46:38.720 --> 01:46:42.159
It makes no sense going after Dixon. I'll take I'll take the shot for

1430
01:46:42.279 --> 01:46:45.439
doing that. And you know,
he easily could have gone down a different

1431
01:46:45.520 --> 01:46:49.239
road if he was a political animal
like most of them are today, and

1432
01:46:49.760 --> 01:46:54.960
he chose not to. He he
chose he chose country over self, and

1433
01:46:55.119 --> 01:46:57.960
unfortunately, what we see a lot
of in Washington, d C. Today

1434
01:46:58.239 --> 01:47:00.359
Is self over country. And so
I was very you know, as somebody

1435
01:47:00.399 --> 01:47:03.720
who was in his early adulthood,
I was very impressed with that. And

1436
01:47:03.760 --> 01:47:06.880
that was a pretty yeah, like
you said, defining moment. And yeah,

1437
01:47:08.199 --> 01:47:12.600
today wouldn't happen, but both Biden
and Trump are at each other's throats,

1438
01:47:12.600 --> 01:47:15.000
and you know, Biden's you know, using the federal government and went

1439
01:47:15.079 --> 01:47:18.359
ways to prosecute Trump, and Trump
would probably do the same thing to him.

1440
01:47:18.399 --> 01:47:21.159
But yeah, credit Forward for saying, you know what I mean,

1441
01:47:21.279 --> 01:47:26.520
every president campaign's on, hey,
we're gonna you know, move past when

1442
01:47:26.520 --> 01:47:29.359
I unite the country, Well that's
how unite the country said, Look,

1443
01:47:29.359 --> 01:47:30.600
we're not looking the past, we're
not going after Nixon, We're going to

1444
01:47:30.640 --> 01:47:33.399
move forward here in divining moment.
I'm sure he got a lot of crap

1445
01:47:33.439 --> 01:47:35.800
for it at the time, but
it was a right enough yeah, yeah,

1446
01:47:35.880 --> 01:47:40.520
yeah, he had no shot when
when the seventy six election rolled around.

1447
01:47:40.520 --> 01:47:43.800
And anyway, so you're in today
with Jason Williams. Yes, who's

1448
01:47:43.840 --> 01:47:45.680
still you know, he's a sport
you know, he's into sports full time

1449
01:47:45.720 --> 01:47:49.600
now, but still taking some slings
and arrows politically from some of the inquiring

1450
01:47:49.640 --> 01:47:55.760
readers. But I'm just wondering,
what's on your docket today to discuss funny

1451
01:47:55.760 --> 01:47:57.680
you should ask? Is right out
of the gate, we have a David

1452
01:47:57.760 --> 01:48:01.119
Niven poli psai. You see great
guests of the show here. Obviously,

1453
01:48:01.199 --> 01:48:06.239
these primaries are coming up. What
March nineteenth, oh two, one ship

1454
01:48:06.319 --> 01:48:10.720
seat is up for grabs. Sheriff
Brown's running. Who got some what three

1455
01:48:10.800 --> 01:48:14.520
gup contenders in that race? It's
another race. I felt that no one's

1456
01:48:14.560 --> 01:48:16.359
talking about. That's what Jason and
I were discussing. No one's really talking

1457
01:48:16.359 --> 01:48:20.880
about these because they're pretty big.
I have imagine a lot of it's fatigue.

1458
01:48:20.880 --> 01:48:24.800
People are just wore out by the
constant you know, Trump v.

1459
01:48:24.880 --> 01:48:27.399
Biden, all this sort of stuff. But here's some big races. We're

1460
01:48:27.399 --> 01:48:30.119
going to dive into him a bit
here with David Navin at three or five.

1461
01:48:30.279 --> 01:48:32.119
You know, he's nobody talking about
and maybe it's because he's become an

1462
01:48:32.119 --> 01:48:36.640
afterthought as RFK Junior, and I
thought there would be more discussion about him

1463
01:48:36.680 --> 01:48:42.159
and he would have more of a
more traction, particularly in a country that

1464
01:48:42.399 --> 01:48:45.960
is dissatisfied half dissatisfied with the other
half. But I mean's he's just a

1465
01:48:46.000 --> 01:48:48.760
non starter, which to me.
You know, he does have the backing

1466
01:48:48.800 --> 01:48:53.640
of a party, which you know
is going to hurt him financially. But

1467
01:48:53.680 --> 01:48:57.439
there's nothing that's captivated anybody's imagination about
the guy. So let me ask you

1468
01:48:57.479 --> 01:49:00.760
this, Ken, Does he help
Trump or Biden more him being in the

1469
01:49:00.840 --> 01:49:03.239
race. Does he? Oh?
I think if he's in the race,

1470
01:49:03.279 --> 01:49:06.960
in my personal opinion, it affects
Biden more. It doesn't affect Trump because

1471
01:49:08.000 --> 01:49:10.279
Trump has got his cores. The
people are going to vote for Trump,

1472
01:49:10.279 --> 01:49:13.600
are going to vote for Trump.
It's like if Nicki Haley for some way,

1473
01:49:13.800 --> 01:49:16.319
in way, shape or form,
becomes the Republican nominee, she's she's

1474
01:49:16.359 --> 01:49:19.840
she's finished because the Trump voters aren't
going to vote for Haley. They'll stay

1475
01:49:19.840 --> 01:49:24.760
home. You know, everybody saying, wow, Haley can beat but be

1476
01:49:24.920 --> 01:49:28.199
Biden. Well, okay, yeah. In February of an election, year.

1477
01:49:28.279 --> 01:49:30.279
But come November, if it's Haley
against Biden, you know, the

1478
01:49:30.279 --> 01:49:32.720
Trump people aren't going to say,
hey, yeah, NICKI Haley, she's

1479
01:49:32.720 --> 01:49:36.319
good. I'm going to go with
her. She's she's and I just don't

1480
01:49:36.319 --> 01:49:39.720
think people are going to come out
and support her. But I do think

1481
01:49:40.119 --> 01:49:45.439
it's at Biden's expense if RFK runs, because regardless of what you think about

1482
01:49:45.479 --> 01:49:49.079
his political beliefs, he's still affiliated
in name with the Democrats, and I

1483
01:49:49.119 --> 01:49:51.119
still think people look at him and
think, well, you know, that's

1484
01:49:51.199 --> 01:49:55.600
Democrat lineage right there, Democrat royalty. But I don't know. The last

1485
01:49:55.600 --> 01:49:58.439
thing I predicted was what I was
going to have for dinner last night,

1486
01:49:58.479 --> 01:50:00.319
and that was just me. That
was wrong. That was just by accident.

1487
01:50:00.760 --> 01:50:03.119
You guys have a great show.
Thanks Ken. All right, there

involving the killer, Colorado Springs pol East

1497
01:50:47.439 --> 01:50:51.079
suspect and victims were known to each
other. Was not a random crime.
