It's time 236 00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:37.640 to check in with our friend old radio Rick Washburn. Good morning, Ricky, 237 00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:49.119 and I was doing so well. Gotcha turn around blind eyes or whatever 238 00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:56.680 that was? Turn around? Like, oh you remember you remember when I 239 00:23:56.839 --> 00:24:00.880 absolutely hated Total Eclipse of the Heart and I had a producer who kept playing 240 00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:04.599 it and and you walked out. I walked out in the studio. Yeah, 241 00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:10.160 not doing that, Just not doing that. I talked to a couple 242 00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:12.799 of producers and said, take me seriously, do not ever do that. 243 00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:18.519 Now. Why did you joke? Why did you tell leam that he was 244 00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:23.680 he was on the short list for leaving? You got him paranoid joke last 245 00:24:23.720 --> 00:24:27.599 week that he was he was a short timer. He is a short timer. 246 00:24:27.680 --> 00:24:32.559 They're all short timers. But we're hoping he hangs around a little bit 247 00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:38.480 longer. He's he's had the best attendance schedule of any producer lately. Yeah, 248 00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:42.920 well except last week he wasn't here. I guess that was that was 249 00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:48.200 a scheduled day off. That was a scheduled day off. So anyway, 250 00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:51.079 had two flat tires on the bridge and he still made it. So that's 251 00:24:51.119 --> 00:24:56.039 what I'm saying. God bless him. You're absolutely right. Merry Christmas, 252 00:24:56.160 --> 00:25:00.680 Ricky, how are we receiving the show this morning? Well, happy belated 253 00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:06.119 birthday. I screwed up and missed your birthday by a day. And I 254 00:25:06.279 --> 00:25:10.440 pulled out this little girl to uh plug her and fire it up and listen. 255 00:25:10.640 --> 00:25:12.319 And it's not a five by five. It is a five by five, 256 00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:18.200 but it's flowing gold through the house. This is a fil Go forty 257 00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:23.599 one two sixty. It is the one model up from your forty one to 258 00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:27.839 fifty eight. It has one additional tube, which you don't need because you're 259 00:25:27.880 --> 00:25:36.400 in the Cincinnati Tristate area, and it has It has a little bit greater 260 00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:40.079 coverage on the high end of the shortwave band, but not as much coverage 261 00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:44.200 as yours has on the low end. And the other difference is that this 262 00:25:44.359 --> 00:25:49.400 one, unlike yours, is dog ugly. It's kind of the same cabinet, 263 00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:53.200 but you have that nice big rectangular dial in the middle where it should 264 00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:57.119 be. This thing has a slide rule dial that's up the very top, 265 00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:02.920 kind of towards the the curve to the top of the cabinet. It looks 266 00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.440 like an afterthought, it's this little little tiny dial. Guys, guys, 267 00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:11.240 nice radio. We got to put a tuning dial on it so people know 268 00:26:11.319 --> 00:26:17.680 where they're going. We got bob Oh, let's let's wedge it in up 269 00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:22.000 here in the corner.

Anyways, very similar to the cabinets, A very similar other than 271 00:26:26.799 --> 00:26:30.720 that, and then it does it does flogo. It is a it's a 272 00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:37.000 wonderful set. And UH and as the catalog brags, it has these new 273 00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:42.400 XXL tubes where yours has the new xx D tube. It wasn't new, 274 00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:48.160 it was just a different numbering. UH system really catch on.

I like to listen to a show while I'm at 284 00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:25.240 work because it drowns out the sound of my idiot boss. Not a bad 285 00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:27.519 idea. I listened to his podcast when my husband is watching one of those 286 00:27:27.519 --> 00:27:32.920 stupid Star Wars movies. I guess anytime is the right time for Sloaney. 287 00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:37.759 You got that right.

It's on Man Gaspriller Bowl last night, Liam, What else 294 00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:12.200 is happening? Georgia Tech defeated you sef thirty seventeen in the Gasprila Bowl last 295 00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:15.799 night. Hey Man six and six. But they're just kids, you know. 296 00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:18.880 You got to celebrate the plays. Not everybody can go six and six. 297 00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:23.799 Troy faces Duke seven and six in the seventy six Birmingham Bowl, Arkansas 298 00:28:23.839 --> 00:28:27.480 State plays Northern Illinois, and the Camellia Bowl, James Madison and Air Force 299 00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:32.440 competing in the Lockhead Martin Armed Forces Bowl. Georgia State and Utah State battled 300 00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:36.559 out in the famous Idaho Potato Bowl. South Alabama and Eastern Michigan meet in 301 00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:41.839 the sixty eight Ventures Bowl, and Mobile Utah faces Northwestern and the SRS Distribution 302 00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:45.799 in Las Vegas Bowl, and Coastal Carolina plays San Jose State on the Island 303 00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:48.039 in the Easy Post. I love all the directional schools, all right. 304 00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:53.160 College basketball? You see beat Stetson last night and Xavier plays today, correct, 305 00:28:53.359 --> 00:28:56.559 Yes, Xavier. Pregame coverage begins at one thirty, tip off at 306 00:28:56.599 --> 00:29:00.839 two, and you can catch that coverage on fifty five KR. And the 307 00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:04.160 only game that really matters today to most people in Cincinnati who love sports, 308 00:29:04.400 --> 00:29:10.039 Cincinnati Bengals on the road at the Pittsburgh Steelers Bengals eight and six, Steelers 309 00:29:10.079 --> 00:29:15.160 seven to seven, And this one's gonna be tight.

If the Chargers can 314 00:29:29.559 --> 00:29:33.200 after that horrific loss to Vegas last week, can come back and beat the 315 00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:36.880 Bills, that's huge for playoff positions. Oh yeah, I can't believe that 316 00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:42.000 they let the Bills look up and win last weekend. Just frustrating. It's 317 00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:48.519 frustrating.

I assume, 336 00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:11.400 so you know, usually I don't hear about those, Yeah, but yeah, 337 00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:15.839 it sounds like everything must be all right. You don't hear about that 338 00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:18.200 when it's a high profile player or somebody who had a great game. Do 339 00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:22.119 you know how often the you know, any member of the team gets tested, 340 00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:23.839 like every other week. I know it's supposed to be random. Do 341 00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:27.559 you know? No, they don't. They don't contact us. That's that's 342 00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:32.960 done to the players. And you see the guy in there drug testing guys. 343 00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:36.160 But I don't I don't have much information about that. All right, 344 00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:38.279 as we sit here, it's a Thursday, and last we heard you said 345 00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:44.359 Jamar was kind of day today. What does today look like? Yeah, 346 00:31:44.440 --> 00:31:47.640 we'll continue to see. We got one more day of practice and we'll see 347 00:31:47.640 --> 00:31:51.160 where that lands before we take off for Pittsburgh. Mark, Yeah, it's 348 00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:53.400 gonna be a huge game. New quarterback, well not new, but to 349 00:31:53.480 --> 00:32:00.200 switch a quarterback makeson Rudolph as the man. What the bigger concern possibly be 350 00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:04.240 the Steelers running game. They've been kind of kept in check recently, but 351 00:32:04.279 --> 00:32:07.000 they went about five games in a row with one hundred and sixty five yards 352 00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:09.680 on the ground. Is that that's something you have to key on. I 353 00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:14.359 would guess, Yeah, that's that's something they'll always lean on, you know. 354 00:32:14.400 --> 00:32:15.759 And this guy's got a lot of experience in their system. We played 355 00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:20.279 against some years ago, I think my first first year here, we played 356 00:32:20.279 --> 00:32:22.359 against against Mason. So he's got a lot of experience in the system. 357 00:32:22.400 --> 00:32:24.519 He tells us, We've been there a long time for a reason. Yeah, 358 00:32:24.799 --> 00:32:28.880 and he he'll post some challenges as he play against them. Of course, 359 00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:31.200 Well the run DJ readers gone, tell me about Travis Bell. What 360 00:32:31.319 --> 00:32:36.319 we know about Travis Bell. Yeah, well, we'll learn more about him 361 00:32:36.359 --> 00:32:38.359 as we get you know, I wouldn't he won't factor into this game, 362 00:32:38.519 --> 00:32:43.079 but you know, it's always good to get some reinforcements there at the defensive 363 00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:46.640 line, and so we'll use every resource that we got Around here, we 364 00:32:46.759 --> 00:32:50.839 have a number of people who work here who are from elsewhere, so they're 365 00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:54.319 fans of a different team. We have Scott Sloans from Buffaloes. He's a 366 00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:58.640 Bills fan and a Bengals fan. Ed Fingers grew up in Dayton before there 367 00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:01.680 were was a Bengals, so he's more of a Browns fan. I'm from 368 00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:05.200 the Philly area, so I'm Bengals, but then I'd like to see the 369 00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:07.640 Eagles do well, because it makes my relatives and friends happy. Growing up 370 00:33:07.640 --> 00:33:10.279 in Oklahoma, did you follow an NFL team, And if you did, 371 00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:15.960 do you have any affinity for that team at this stage? I followed Peyton 372 00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:22.240 Manning, so I followed Tennessee and the Indianapolis Colts. My dad had coached 373 00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:25.000 with a guy named Dave McGinnis who's the head coach of Arizona Cardinals, so 374 00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:28.920 I followed them just because my dad was friends with them. And then the 375 00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:31.440 Dallas Cowboys, where the team is on TV, so they were really good 376 00:33:31.559 --> 00:33:36.119 when I was a kid. I didn't My day did not depend on them 377 00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:37.480 winning or losing, but they were on TV a lot, so I know 378 00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:42.359 more of their players than probably any other team. Okay, but Oklahoma was 379 00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:45.519 the pro sports team in Oklahoma, so that's kind of the team just followed. 380 00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:49.400 Yeah really, all right, Well, off to Pittsburgh. Hope we 381 00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:52.599 can send a lot of Pittsburgh fans home nice and sad, and we'll talk 382 00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:55.720 again next week. Thank you, tuk you. Then, well, that's 383 00:33:55.759 --> 00:34:00.039 going to be cloudy in the afternoon, Attempaus in the low fifties. The 384 00:34:00.119 --> 00:34:01.960 night you drop down to the low forties before you see a temperature close to 385 00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:06.359 sixty for Christmas Eve.

I've been up 418 00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:07.559 for over an hour, Gary Jeff.

Seven one hundred WLW Sports William Tomlinson tell me what's going on 445 00:39:13.360 --> 00:39:16.079 today? I think there's some football game people may be interested in. Yes, 446 00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:20.920 I'm important. NFL football today, eight and six Bengals on the road 447 00:39:21.159 --> 00:39:24.360 faces seven and seven Pittsburgh's Dealers, and a battle between two teams looking to 448 00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:28.920 get a wild card spot in the playoffs this year. Kickoff is set for 449 00:39:29.000 --> 00:39:32.000 four point thirty and cover starts on noon with Ken Bruce Saturday Sports Talk right 450 00:39:32.039 --> 00:39:37.760 here on seven hundred WLW in ESPN fifteen thirty. Jake Browning will be without 451 00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:40.320 top receiving threat Tamar Chase has been ruled out for today's game. Hopefully we 452 00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:45.960 can get another t Higgins masterclass as we got last week with that spectacular catch 453 00:39:45.400 --> 00:39:52.239 to seal the well. The Bengals have other receivers and Zach Zach Taylor talked 454 00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:55.760 about those options this week and he's not concerned. Yeah, they have other 455 00:39:55.840 --> 00:40:00.559 receivers and they're good receivers, but there's not a lot of great eight receivers 456 00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:02.199 in the NFL. And I think T Higgins and Jamar Chase are on a 457 00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:06.159 different level than these other guys, I would agree. But you got tea 458 00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:08.880 on the field, so you got somebody to take the pressure off. The 459 00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:14.639 other game is also of consequence to the Bengals. Yeah, the Bills travel 460 00:40:14.719 --> 00:40:20.239 to LA to face the Chargers in the nightcap tonight. The Bills because Bengals 461 00:40:20.280 --> 00:40:23.000 could use a Bill's loss to help secure the wild card spot. But the 462 00:40:23.079 --> 00:40:28.440 Bills are the only team really behind the Bengals and the tie breakers. Yeah, 463 00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:30.760 I know, we just went out. We control our own destiny. 464 00:40:30.840 --> 00:40:35.800 But maybe the human turnover machine Josh Allen will show up again in LA. 465 00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:39.320 That'd be great. Uh So, we had some college football bowl games. 466 00:40:39.360 --> 00:40:44.159 There was a game last night, correct, Yeah, Georgia Tech defeated UCF 467 00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:46.199 thirty seventeen in the gas Brilla Bowl last night, all right, And there 468 00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:51.280 are what seven others today or six seven bowl games today, the first being 469 00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:54.760 at noon. We got bowl games all day and Xavier also plays on fifty 470 00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:59.480 five krc Y. Xavier hosts Seaton Hall at the Centas Center this afternoon. 471 00:40:59.480 --> 00:41:04.159 Seaton Hall came off a big win first Yukon at home, but Xavier's favored 472 00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:07.400 over Seaton Holiday by three points. Excellent.

Good morning, 481 00:42:28.760 --> 00:42:35.519 Good morning, Gary Jeff. I can't listen or watch news shows anymore. 482 00:42:36.239 --> 00:42:38.679 We all know what the problem is, how to fix it? So how 483 00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:44.920 come nothing is done? I hate to quote the economies at Nike, but 484 00:42:45.079 --> 00:42:50.760 how about just do it? So here goes. When you vote for me 485 00:42:51.599 --> 00:42:55.920 in next year's election as your Emperor of America, my first act will naturally 486 00:42:57.000 --> 00:43:02.039 be an executive order, the border order. But first, all I watch 487 00:43:02.159 --> 00:43:07.199 on TV now are Western movies. I keep coming back to the Treasure of 488 00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:13.400 Sierra Madri because I love Bogee and Humphrey Bogarde and Lauren. Butcall got married 489 00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:19.519 here in Ohio, so we're homies. Recall that line from the famous flick 490 00:43:20.039 --> 00:43:24.679 where the federality in Mexico says, we don't need no stinking bodges. It 491 00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:30.880 was so good Bell Brooks repeated it in Blazing Saddles, and I paraphrase it 492 00:43:31.480 --> 00:43:37.840 in my inaugural address to the nation that you in January twenty twenty five, 493 00:43:37.320 --> 00:43:43.280 we don't need no stinking EV's. Here's the plan. To date, there 494 00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:50.360 have been two million EV's that's electronic vehicles sold in the United States. The 495 00:43:50.440 --> 00:43:55.440 average price is fifty six thousand dollars. As your Emperor, I will buy 496 00:43:55.880 --> 00:44:01.480 every damn one of them and give the owners an extra twenty five percent to 497 00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:07.960 do with what they please. That's fifty six k that was the sticker price, 498 00:44:07.440 --> 00:44:15.400 plus another fourteen or seventy thousand dollars in an offer they clearly cannot refuse, 499 00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:21.039 considering they must now know that they bought a lemon, but that lemon 500 00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:27.559 will last just long enough for ME to do the border order. So far, 501 00:44:27.679 --> 00:44:30.480 the cost is one hundred and forty billion dollars. Normally we would have 502 00:44:30.599 --> 00:44:35.880 to double that to cover the inefficiency and corruption in any federal program. But 503 00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:39.000 the Bidens and the Clintons, with their charitable trusts, are no longer going 504 00:44:39.079 --> 00:44:45.360 to be around. So I've already saved you people one hundred and forty additional 505 00:44:45.480 --> 00:44:50.320 billion dollars. You can thank me later for my service. Your present government 506 00:44:50.440 --> 00:44:54.599 tells us that of all the makes of cars stolen and or carjacked in the 507 00:44:54.719 --> 00:45:01.039 United States last year, evs were not even in the top ten. Wow, 508 00:45:01.880 --> 00:45:07.480 at fifty six bucks a pop or higher. The thieves didn't think and 509 00:45:07.719 --> 00:45:13.000 EV was worth it. That tells you evs are a pile of crap. 510 00:45:13.679 --> 00:45:17.840 We're going to send that pile of dung to Mexico, along with the estimated 511 00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:23.679 twenty million illegals. They said to us, I call that an exchange rate. 512 00:45:24.400 --> 00:45:29.639 You have quickly noted that I have only two million vehicles, but I've 513 00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:35.320 got twenty million passengers. True, it's going to get crowded, but recall 514 00:45:35.440 --> 00:45:43.159 that originally the Coyotes transported hundreds of illegals each in thirteen foot box trucks, 515 00:45:43.519 --> 00:45:49.400 and nobody who survived complained about it. I assumed they had the same amenities 516 00:45:49.760 --> 00:45:54.400 that my evs will have cable TV, ac et cetera. Although I'm going 517 00:45:54.480 --> 00:46:00.280 to take all the evs I'm buying in as ease condition. Like Donald Trump, 518 00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:07.280 I'm a former businessman. I will have added one nice tracker. Thank 519 00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:13.320 God for GPS devices. Because of any of those vehicles, change is direction 520 00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:20.000 a governor on each car means they can only go south. The EV blows 521 00:46:20.119 --> 00:46:23.960 up double seven style. That's the kind of guy I am. I will 522 00:46:24.039 --> 00:46:30.599 do anything to ensure passenger safety. I'm a Christian too. As for financing 523 00:46:30.719 --> 00:46:35.599 this, it will not be a strain on the treasury. One hundred and 524 00:46:35.679 --> 00:46:39.760 forty billion for God. Thanks is jump change when you consider two things. 525 00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:46.159 Last year we had a budget shortfall of one point seven trillion dollars and the 526 00:46:46.199 --> 00:46:52.199 most recent month this year set a thirty day record of three hundred and fourteen 527 00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:57.199 billion. That's in one month. But my chump change still makes me feel 528 00:46:57.360 --> 00:47:04.960 very uneasy. Consider this the multi decade future cost of having all these illegals 529 00:47:05.519 --> 00:47:09.719 flooding our schools, healthcare systems, welfare offices, and prisons, not to 530 00:47:09.840 --> 00:47:15.159 mention paying funeral expenses when they die of gunshots and fentanyl. That's the end 531 00:47:15.199 --> 00:47:19.920 for some of them, but only the start for taxpayers, which is a 532 00:47:20.000 --> 00:47:24.639 burden to the half of us who actually pay federal income taxes inflation, anyone 533 00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:30.239 like I say, please, don't thank me now. Biden's buddies wanted to 534 00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:34.920 overthrow the government and start ANEW. They're going to get that, but it 535 00:47:35.039 --> 00:47:42.639 won't be communism. Lovingly, Steve at my campaign headquarters in beautiful Etna, 536 00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:46.239 Ohio, I would appreciate your vote because we want to make this legal. 537 00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:55.840 Gary Jeff, When did affirmative action become DEI? The answer it African American. 538 00:47:57.639 --> 00:48:00.679 They keep changing it, don't they ask you why? By the way, 539 00:48:00.920 --> 00:48:07.960 conservatives out there, commentators, you were surprised by wappo. That's Washington 540 00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:13.960 Post actually saying that that decision in Colorado this week was garbage. Well, 541 00:48:14.199 --> 00:48:19.519 why are you surprised? The Dems are panicking because they know this could be 542 00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:27.079 done to them if a non Rhino conservative president decides what's good for the goose 543 00:48:27.639 --> 00:48:31.679 is good for the gander. Those January the sixth, twenty twenty one protesters, 544 00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:37.280 they're looking better and better every day, aren't They kind of stupid what 545 00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:42.679 they did, But you know what, they may have been the only people 546 00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:45.599 in this country who knew what the hell was going on. Remember that a 547 00:48:45.679 --> 00:48:51.920 black cop and the Capitol murdered an unarmed female white protester, while a white 548 00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:58.440 cop in Minnesota killed a career black drug dealer and got twenty years. Are 549 00:48:58.480 --> 00:49:01.519 we a nation of laws? I don't think so, Gary Jeff, Well, 550 00:49:01.719 --> 00:49:07.880 let's end on a pleasant note. You share, Gary Jeff Walker a 551 00:49:08.039 --> 00:49:16.280 birthday I said yesterday with my first great grandchild. I tried to get them 552 00:49:16.800 --> 00:49:24.159 to name him Gary Jeff Simon. They wouldn't do it. I am still 553 00:49:24.280 --> 00:49:29.159 angry, so I've got to hang out before I utter an upsenity. Hey, 554 00:49:29.239 --> 00:49:32.360 Merry Christmas to you and everybody else. Marry Christmas to you, Ray, 555 00:49:32.440 --> 00:49:37.440 and lovelin real quickly, man, what's on your mind? Good morning, 556 00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:40.159 Happy birthday? And I've got to listen to podcast three times and take 557 00:49:40.199 --> 00:49:45.199 all that in. Steve is so awesome. I know who would think about 558 00:49:45.239 --> 00:49:51.400 the cost of the funerals. Come on, but God bless you, brother. 559 00:49:51.519 --> 00:49:53.880 I just wanted to say, happy birthday, Merry Christmas, safe travels, 560 00:49:54.480 --> 00:49:59.840 hug your mom and daddy, and what a beautiful Christmas present you're given 561 00:50:00.159 --> 00:50:05.079 world today with your great show.

Yeah, I wash. 586 00:52:16.760 --> 00:52:20.880 And as my dad always said, it was a very good taxi eduction. 587 00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:28.599 Great. So my current wife is telling me yesterday I'll be spending the next 588 00:52:28.719 --> 00:52:34.400 year clawing at keeping in my age in the sixties for another year. Well 589 00:52:34.440 --> 00:52:38.360 there you go. So Christmas isn't really right, Christmas isn't getting warmer, 590 00:52:38.519 --> 00:52:43.960 is it? Well we'll find out. This comes from the scene of two 591 00:52:44.280 --> 00:52:46.880 coalition. I already know, I already know, But go ahead, let's 592 00:52:46.880 --> 00:52:53.400 share with the listeners. December fourteenth Internet newsletter. Of course, usually this 593 00:52:53.480 --> 00:52:58.960 time of year we hear all kinds of things from the compliant news media about 594 00:52:59.079 --> 00:53:04.159 alarming Christmas temperature increases, and good chance we'll hear about it today because we 595 00:53:05.480 --> 00:53:09.519 got some pretty warm weather right now. But what the CU two coalition did 596 00:53:09.679 --> 00:53:15.599 is they went back to the data and they accessed what's called the US Historical 597 00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:21.199 Climatology Network, looking at the maximum daily temperatures to the lower forty eight states 598 00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:25.599 and compared to the CO two. This went They looked from data from eighteen 599 00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:32.639 ninety which at at two hundred and ninety five ppm carbon dioxide to twenty twenty 600 00:53:32.719 --> 00:53:37.679 two last year at four hundred and ten parts per million of carbon dioxide, 601 00:53:37.760 --> 00:53:43.199 was a thirty nine percent increase. So you'd expect, according to the alarmists, 602 00:53:43.239 --> 00:53:45.760 some you know, we'd be you be hotter than ever, hotter in 603 00:53:45.840 --> 00:53:52.239 Haiti. Yeah, but interesting once they went through the data. But the 604 00:53:52.880 --> 00:53:58.079 statistical analysis to it, it's not either increasing or decreasing. Yes, it 605 00:53:58.239 --> 00:54:04.199 goes up and down a lot, but the line it just it's flat, 606 00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:12.039 but interesting. Gary Jeff. The first coldest in this time period. The 607 00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:17.159 coldest Christmas day on average in the Flower forty eight was nineteen eighty three. 608 00:54:19.119 --> 00:54:24.079 Average maximum temperature in the lower forty eight seventeen degrees. Wow, excuse me, 609 00:54:24.199 --> 00:54:29.119 nineteen eighty three. I can still remember that was my first wife in 610 00:54:29.199 --> 00:54:31.960 I Connie's. It was our we're in our starter home, or was our 611 00:54:32.039 --> 00:54:37.559 second Christmas in that starter home, and we had the Casey Christmas brunch that 612 00:54:37.760 --> 00:54:42.199 day, and I just remember how single digits that was that day and how 613 00:54:42.320 --> 00:54:49.239 cold it was. The second coldest is nineteen twenty four, twenty seven degrees 614 00:54:49.280 --> 00:54:58.840 fahrenheit, and the third coldest Christmas average maximum temperature in the lower forty eight 615 00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:06.480 last year twenty twenty two, twenty nine degrees fahrenheit. How about that again? 616 00:55:06.920 --> 00:55:09.800 Do you look at the data, gritten going up, not going down. 617 00:55:09.920 --> 00:55:15.360 So to all those out there in radio land, you can put your 618 00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:21.199 kiddies to bed tomorrow night.

We'll end it there, and happy birthday tomorrow 620 00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:30.199 our Christmas Eve baby, and much more ahead.

I 627 00:56:05.400 --> 00:56:07.960 want to apologize your son Giovanni, who was supposed to be on the program 628 00:56:08.119 --> 00:56:15.519 this week and it didn't happen because of the stupid basketball game. And I 629 00:56:15.719 --> 00:56:19.320 just I felt terrible because I know he was waiting up to hear himself on 630 00:56:19.400 --> 00:56:22.719 a nightcap. He will, he will, he will be able to hear 631 00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:28.360 that soon. I trust you will have him up and I'll let you know. 632 00:56:28.719 --> 00:56:32.480 Feel terrible. We all have to live through disappointment. Don't worry about 633 00:56:32.519 --> 00:56:36.920 it. So what's on you? What's on your mind on this Christmas weekend? 634 00:56:37.000 --> 00:56:43.239 Rocco today? Well, because of the new year coming Christmas, all 635 00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:50.039 that good stuff and people over fifty, I really want to take heed because 636 00:56:52.119 --> 00:56:59.800 the most important thing that we can do is get tested for the eight pole 637 00:57:00.599 --> 00:57:07.199 e for gene, because the apo E four gene is the is the gene 638 00:57:07.480 --> 00:57:15.199 that that's usually present and that can contribute to a dementia. And so I 639 00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:22.639 want people to go out and go to the doctor and tell them that you 640 00:57:22.920 --> 00:57:28.840 want Now I want people out there to stop bullying their doctors, because the 641 00:57:28.960 --> 00:57:34.639 doctors bully them. I want I want us to go and bully the doctor 642 00:57:34.760 --> 00:57:38.440 and say, I want to get tested for the apoe E four gene to 643 00:57:38.559 --> 00:57:45.559 see if I may I may be uh, you know, have the potential 644 00:57:45.639 --> 00:57:51.039 to get a dementia. And then if you do have it, there are 645 00:57:51.480 --> 00:57:55.800 you you can go to a functional medicine doctor and there's uh, there's absolute 646 00:57:55.920 --> 00:58:04.880 things that we can do utilize epigenetics. Just because you have the gene doesn't 647 00:58:05.000 --> 00:58:10.119 mean that you go that you have to get dementia. So we can use 648 00:58:10.360 --> 00:58:20.679 what's called epigenetics in order to actually to stave it off. Yep, well 649 00:58:20.840 --> 00:58:24.519 you won't stave it off. You can actually not get dementia. So well 650 00:58:24.559 --> 00:58:29.360 there you go. It's it's a shame. It's a shame that somebody didn't 651 00:58:29.679 --> 00:58:34.920 test Joe Biden about twenty years ago. Rocco it is is it. Have 652 00:58:35.079 --> 00:58:39.360 a fantastic weekend and Merry Christmas to you and your family.

If you want to 654 00:58:44.880 --> 00:58:49.199 know more, time for a visit from my friend from the West, Tom 655 00:58:49.280 --> 00:58:58.760 davis Diary. Weird whacked out stories from around the country and around the world, 656 00:58:59.079 --> 00:59:06.599 presented to you by our our phantom newscaster, Good Morning Gary Jeff This 657 00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:12.800 week warning the grinches are out in force. But first, one woman's Christmas 658 00:59:12.880 --> 00:59:17.519 bonus is now an Internet sensation now. This lady posted a video showcasing what 659 00:59:17.639 --> 00:59:25.000 her company gave out as a Christmas bonus, a potato, a single potato, 660 00:59:25.679 --> 00:59:30.719 and to make it worse, the company also taxed her on it as 661 00:59:30.800 --> 00:59:37.000 a gift, valuing the potato at fifteen dollars. She says, despite how 662 00:59:37.119 --> 00:59:40.480 awful this year's gift was, last year's was actually worse. It was a 663 00:59:40.559 --> 00:59:45.320 thirty minute conference call with company executives. Meanwhile, a family in our hurry 664 00:59:45.360 --> 00:59:49.599 to get the Disney World nearly made a costly mistake. They thought they were 665 00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:52.840 spending ten thousand dollars in Disney money, money that would be used at the 666 00:59:52.920 --> 00:59:59.239 park and for their resort stay Well. They mistakenly bought ten thousand dollars in 667 00:59:59.320 --> 01:00:02.440 Disney Plus gift cards. That's a lot of bad TV, but all was 668 01:00:02.519 --> 01:00:06.480 not lost. The Magic Kingdom was able to convert the cards to ones that 669 01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:10.199 could be used at the park. In Wadebridge, England, some grinch was 670 01:00:10.239 --> 01:00:15.639 trying to steal Sarah Yardley's holiday spirit by cutting down the tree she decorated for 671 01:00:15.760 --> 01:00:19.559 Christmas in her backyard. She wasn't home, but her neighbors were watching when 672 01:00:19.559 --> 01:00:22.960 the tree started shimmy and shake and it was eventually seen going over the fence. 673 01:00:23.639 --> 01:00:28.000 But in the spirit of the season, they all pitched in and got 674 01:00:28.039 --> 01:00:30.800 her another tree and finally, call it fate, call it loves, Call 675 01:00:30.880 --> 01:00:36.519 it the craziest thing you'll hear today. A husband and wife in Italy survived 676 01:00:36.599 --> 01:00:40.159 not one, but two separate plane crashes on the same day. He was 677 01:00:40.239 --> 01:00:44.679 on one that had electrical problems that sent it crashing down to the ground, 678 01:00:44.960 --> 01:00:47.400 while she went down in another plane about twenty five miles away. The two 679 01:00:47.480 --> 01:00:51.960 crashes were not related, and the good news is both were taken to the 680 01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:57.199 same hospital and both were released with minor injuries next week. Forget the gym, 681 01:00:57.760 --> 01:01:00.719 drop those holiday pounds with the latest, add the paintball, diet, 682 01:01:01.239 --> 01:01:06.719 run or be shot.

We're coming up on 705 01:02:52.679 --> 01:02:57.159 the Steelers week. Steelers Week's always a big deal. When's the last time 706 01:02:57.199 --> 01:03:00.599 I don't know that the Bengals were favored by two or three in Pittsburgh? 707 01:03:00.599 --> 01:03:04.920 I have done that very often. No, it's a good question, and 708 01:03:05.239 --> 01:03:07.679 really, you think the direction these two teams have went in the last couple 709 01:03:07.719 --> 01:03:12.039 of weeks. Pittsburgh came to Cincinnati. Of course, that was the game 710 01:03:12.079 --> 01:03:15.760 they had changed offensive coordinators. They see they go for over four hundred total 711 01:03:15.880 --> 01:03:19.760 yards and a lot of people thought, Okay, there's two teams going in 712 01:03:19.800 --> 01:03:22.719 a different direction. Pittsburgh's making that move at the end, Bengals are gonna 713 01:03:22.719 --> 01:03:27.679 fall off with Jake Browning. And since then, Bengals haven't lost. Jake 714 01:03:27.719 --> 01:03:32.199 Browning has looked fantastic, and in Pittsburgh they have They've since benched Mitch Trubisky, 715 01:03:32.320 --> 01:03:36.320 can he Pickett is injured and it's gonna be Mason Rudolph. And this 716 01:03:36.519 --> 01:03:40.760 is a team in Pittsburgh dealing with just a ton of outside noise around that 717 01:03:40.840 --> 01:03:46.360 locker room going into the game. Yeah. The first game out for Browning 718 01:03:46.920 --> 01:03:52.039 was the Steelers game, and that was the one where I guess talking to 719 01:03:52.119 --> 01:03:53.599 coaches he said, you know, the things he wanted to try, and 720 01:03:53.679 --> 01:03:58.159 when once the game got into it, he realized those things weren't working too 721 01:03:58.239 --> 01:04:00.599 well, so they changed things up. Then three wins in a row, 722 01:04:01.280 --> 01:04:04.000 so this will be a different game plan, I would think. Obviously going 723 01:04:04.039 --> 01:04:08.440 into see the Steelers the second time, well, yeah, I mean the 724 01:04:08.639 --> 01:04:12.239 biggest thing in that first game against the Steelers is they ran the ball eight 725 01:04:12.360 --> 01:04:15.880 times, Joe Mixon had eight carries, Chase Brown didn't touch the ball. 726 01:04:15.800 --> 01:04:19.360 They just didn't have any rhythm offensively. Defense, they gave up a ton 727 01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:23.480 of yards, but they only gave up sixteen points. Yeah, that should 728 01:04:23.480 --> 01:04:27.000 be enough to win a football game. But it was the run game, 729 01:04:27.079 --> 01:04:30.920 the lack of run game that has since been different for the Bengals that has 730 01:04:31.000 --> 01:04:34.800 given Jake Browning a little bit of a level of comfort and allowed him to 731 01:04:34.880 --> 01:04:39.280 get into games and win one on one matchups because they are running the ball 732 01:04:39.320 --> 01:04:45.159 well and it's got to go without Jamar Chase. But the reality is Browning 733 01:04:45.239 --> 01:04:51.599 is less dependent on him than then previously. I mean, I think he 734 01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:57.559 had eleven different people touched the ball last week. I do believe. Yeah, 735 01:04:57.559 --> 01:05:00.039 and in the end of regulation the touchdowns dry where t Higgins makes the 736 01:05:00.119 --> 01:05:06.800 unbelievable catch Tanner Hudson tryumtastic manner, and yet you still do have that wide 737 01:05:06.840 --> 01:05:12.119 receiver, one capable player in t Higgins. So with the running game, 738 01:05:12.639 --> 01:05:16.559 with the weapons and Cake Brown's ability to spread it around, and playing a 739 01:05:17.039 --> 01:05:20.719 team that is not a dominant offense, they should still be able to find 740 01:05:20.800 --> 01:05:26.480 enough offensively on Saturday to help carry them through this game. Yeah all right, 741 01:05:26.519 --> 01:05:29.360 well we shall see gotta run Tony Pike. Thank you, and we'll 742 01:05:29.480 --> 01:05:33.079 talk again next week. Who day, Thanks buddy, RNL carrier enter throughout 743 01:05:33.119 --> 01:05:35.800 the first parts of our Saturday.

This every seven to hit the charts for the first time, and 778 01:09:45.479 --> 01:09:48.720 that was Pearl Harbor stayed there for nine weeks and written by a couple of 779 01:09:48.760 --> 01:09:54.439 guys allegedly traveling on the Southern Railways that Birmingham a special train. It was 780 01:09:54.479 --> 01:09:58.279 one of those three trains coming out of New York City by Captain Luca. 781 01:09:58.640 --> 01:10:00.439 And of course there's a song open. It sounds like a train rolling on 782 01:10:00.520 --> 01:10:03.439 the station of the trumpets and the trombones, and I loved the little narration. 783 01:10:03.640 --> 01:10:09.319 Come there, pardon me boys at the chandnever feature recorded Glenn Millard Orchestra 784 01:10:10.640 --> 01:10:15.000 racing a text Benikey kempanied by Paula Kelly and the fabulous Modern Air. So 785 01:10:15.079 --> 01:10:18.199 that was a number one record. But mom and Dad reroviting me home from 786 01:10:18.600 --> 01:10:27.000 the hot Well, let's let's flash ahead some nineteen years to December twenty second, 787 01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:32.560 nineteen sixty when I was thrust upon the world. What was the number 788 01:10:32.640 --> 01:10:36.960 one song? Then, Jim Well? In April of nineteen sixty, I 789 01:10:38.119 --> 01:10:42.560 was questionings a two year service hits in the army ended and got the suggestion 790 01:10:42.720 --> 01:10:45.720 of his manager, Colonel Tom Parker. Are you listen tonight? I said, 791 01:10:45.880 --> 01:10:49.319 you're going to record this song? And Parker's wife was the reason. 792 01:10:49.560 --> 01:10:54.800 Was Parker's wife, Marie Mott. That was her favorite song and she knew 793 01:10:54.880 --> 01:11:00.079 the song from Gene Austin Zach because Tom Parker was his manager. And there 794 01:11:00.159 --> 01:11:05.159 supposed me that was the only time that the colonel intervened the selection of a 795 01:11:05.279 --> 01:11:09.840 repertoire for Elvis Presley. So he went into the studio to do this song 796 01:11:11.000 --> 01:11:15.720 in April. So here he is in the studio aful of four am in 797 01:11:15.760 --> 01:11:18.039 the morning. He begins recording. Now you'll learse some tonight and he's got 798 01:11:18.079 --> 01:11:21.960 the acoustic guitar, drums, bass, back up group, the Jordanaires, 799 01:11:23.600 --> 01:11:26.800 and all of a suddenly asked everybody, everybody in the studio that leave the 800 01:11:26.880 --> 01:11:30.399 session, please leave the room, told Ched Atkins turn the lights out, 801 01:11:30.000 --> 01:11:34.319 and he performed the song with the spoken bridge that Al Jolson had used in 802 01:11:34.359 --> 01:11:39.239 the nineteen forties. And then after the second take, elviss for the producer 803 01:11:39.279 --> 01:11:42.600 Steve Schulz, Hey for that thing, and I can't do justice, and 804 01:11:42.720 --> 01:11:46.399 Schulz sells the engineer ignore Elvis Presley, and he said to ask him to 805 01:11:46.439 --> 01:11:49.960 do another take. So he tells that, he tells Elvis, he said, 806 01:11:50.640 --> 01:11:55.720 the Jordanaires bumped into the microphone's hand, well while they were recording in 807 01:11:55.840 --> 01:11:58.239 the dark. We need to do another take. And as a result, 808 01:11:58.359 --> 01:12:00.920 Elvis performs the song again. And that's the tape that they used. That's 809 01:12:00.960 --> 01:12:06.199 the tape they used for the master. They delayed releasing this then because art 810 01:12:06.960 --> 01:12:11.600 executive thought they didn't fit the image of Elvis Presley. And then it came 811 01:12:11.680 --> 01:12:14.159 out. Of course, number one, Hey, number one, the day 812 01:12:14.199 --> 01:12:17.439 you were born, number one for five weeks in nineteen sixty. Elvis Presley's 813 01:12:17.840 --> 01:12:21.760 a little Shakespeare in there and a little bit of paiachi in there from the 814 01:12:21.880 --> 01:12:30.399 Shakespeare's As You Like It? Here's are you lonesome tonight? It was coming 815 01:12:30.479 --> 01:12:35.159 out of the Birth Canal, and perhaps this was on the radio. Are 816 01:12:35.319 --> 01:12:49.880 you long to do you miss? Are you sorry? We drifted? Paul? 817 01:12:54.840 --> 01:13:05.159 Does your memo A bride to somebody? Do the chairs?

You 822 01:13:48.439 --> 01:13:53.279 know? Someone said that the world's a stage. You must play a part. 823 01:13:55.399 --> 01:13:59.920 Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart. Act one 824 01:14:00.119 --> 01:14:05.119 was where we met. I loved you at first glance. You read your 825 01:14:05.199 --> 01:14:13.439 line so cleverly and never missed a Q. Then came act too. You 826 01:14:13.560 --> 01:14:21.319 seem to change. You acted strange, and why I'm never known? Honey? 827 01:14:21.439 --> 01:14:27.960 You lie when you said you loved me, and I had no cause 828 01:14:28.079 --> 01:14:34.960 to doubt. But I'd rather go on hearing your lias. Then they go 829 01:14:35.079 --> 01:14:45.640 on living without you. Another stage is bare, and I'm standing there with 830 01:14:45.159 --> 01:14:53.359 emptiness all around, and if you won't come back to me, then they 831 01:14:53.399 --> 01:15:06.800 can bring the curtain down. Is it your heart? Shall I come tell 832 01:15:06.880 --> 01:15:15.960 me? D are you some tears? Yeah? Actually several years and then 833 01:15:15.960 --> 01:15:18.000 we finally one day it's your Birthday's my birthday? Two? Yeah, that 834 01:15:18.159 --> 01:15:25.640 was funny. It was a shocker. That's that's that's almost as cool as 835 01:15:25.680 --> 01:15:31.279 getting stuck in the elevator together for over an hour. All right, So 836 01:15:31.560 --> 01:15:35.720 next on our rock and Roll archaeology list, away from our birthdays and more 837 01:15:35.800 --> 01:15:41.880 to the season itself to Christmas time, and the year is nineteen sixty three. 838 01:15:41.960 --> 01:15:45.039 Tell me about this next song? Okay, this was recorded in October 839 01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:49.840 of nineteen sixty three, and as the Beach Boys Little Saint Nick now talking 840 01:15:49.920 --> 01:15:56.960 about because inspired partly because of Phil Spector. The idea for the song. 841 01:15:57.119 --> 01:16:01.560 Phil Spector was recording a Christmas album. Brian Wilson finds out about it. 842 01:16:01.640 --> 01:16:05.600 He's actually he's on a date with the girl and all of a sudden, 843 01:16:05.840 --> 01:16:10.359 what Phil's come out with an I'm gonna do something And he wrote the lyrics 844 01:16:10.399 --> 01:16:13.279 to it while he was out on a date with this girl, rushes home 845 01:16:13.399 --> 01:16:16.840 to finish the music. And some of its rhythm and the structure if you 846 01:16:17.079 --> 01:16:20.800 listen to a terriflay. Of course, it's Little Deuce Coop that also is 847 01:16:20.840 --> 01:16:25.399 written by Brian Wilson and Bank Love. That was a hit for the Beach 848 01:16:25.479 --> 01:16:30.359 Boys like six months earlier, and so they record this song he gets in 849 01:16:30.479 --> 01:16:33.640 the studio. Cars were the common theme of the Beach Boys early songs, 850 01:16:34.079 --> 01:16:38.199 especially in Little Deuce Coop, and it was a template for the song. 851 01:16:38.319 --> 01:16:42.960 And then an Invasion Stata Clauses plays a Nordic hot rod Candy Apple red four 852 01:16:43.039 --> 01:16:48.079 speed stick. And he wrote a very interesting in this song because in the 853 01:16:48.159 --> 01:16:51.479 song he says, run Run Reindeer, and that was the line taking from 854 01:16:51.560 --> 01:16:56.560 Chuck Berrys song Run Rudolph, Run with Chuck Berry. When Chuck Berry sang 855 01:16:56.640 --> 01:17:00.000 run Run Rudolph. When he did that, he mentions Rudolph. Well, 856 01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:04.760 Rudolph. The name Rudolph was copywritten by Johnny Marx, who wrote Rudolph the 857 01:17:04.800 --> 01:17:10.159 Red Nosed Reindeer, so something the copyright from that Berry song had to go 858 01:17:10.279 --> 01:17:13.840 to Johnny Marx. Well in this case they made the reindeer generic and they 859 01:17:13.920 --> 01:17:16.000 didn't. Then it became a giant hit and at the time you you had 860 01:17:16.079 --> 01:17:19.840 mentioned to me that this song you remember the song being played on the radio 861 01:17:20.000 --> 01:17:26.159 and the story during the assassination of President Kennedy in November sixty three year, 862 01:17:26.479 --> 01:17:30.119 we went into the aduldrums and really at the Christmas time, and I had 863 01:17:30.199 --> 01:17:33.079 mentioned it before, and we did the Christmas countdown that Phil Spector with Christmas 864 01:17:33.199 --> 01:17:39.479 by Darling Left that was pulled. We pulled it right after the President's assassination. 865 01:17:39.600 --> 01:17:42.520 Well the Beach boys didn't the Beach Boys let this thing go out and 866 01:17:42.680 --> 01:17:45.560 this jockeys played this record and at that time I got to say, we 867 01:17:45.640 --> 01:17:49.600 were playing Harry Simeon's Correll the Little Drummer Boy, while Christmas of course being 868 01:17:49.680 --> 01:17:54.640 Crosby's version, and that King Cole. And then we did we did play 869 01:17:54.720 --> 01:17:58.159 this song Little Saint Nicho. It was up blitching at the time that the 870 01:17:58.239 --> 01:18:04.359 country really needed some that's lifting. Absolutely, Christmas comes this time each year, 871 01:18:06.760 --> 01:18:16.520 many Christmas, Saint Christmas come this time each year. Well away up 872 01:18:16.800 --> 01:18:23.720 north werthy Argis.

Yeah, I guess so. Jim Levarbara with US Rock and 886 01:20:05.600 --> 01:20:11.239 Roll Archaeology on a Saturday morning edition seven hundred WLW and Gary Jeff with The 887 01:20:11.319 --> 01:20:17.920 prof So Last Stop. Here are two artists that had birthdays, joining us 888 01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:23.600 on December twenty second. They have passed since they're no longer celebrating birthdays like 889 01:20:23.720 --> 01:20:28.880 you and I are, but we thought it was important to mention Robin and 890 01:20:29.039 --> 01:20:33.920 Morris Gibb. Yeah, Rob, Robin Gibb and his paternal twin, Morris 891 01:20:33.960 --> 01:20:40.600 Gibb, Robin the older by thirty five minutes buried the older brother three years 892 01:20:40.640 --> 01:20:45.760 older, and the three of them young young guys singing on the street corners 893 01:20:45.800 --> 01:20:48.560 in Manchester and their young kids. And a story that you don't hear, 894 01:20:48.880 --> 01:20:54.159 you don't hear. In the nineteen fifties, okay, the boys were living 895 01:20:54.239 --> 01:20:58.279 in Manchester, England, in England. That ustright in England, and Robin 896 01:20:58.399 --> 01:21:02.760 reportedly set pajama the billboards on fire with matches and his mom, and his 897 01:21:02.920 --> 01:21:08.760 mom dubbed him a firebug. Well, the local police in Manchester took notice 898 01:21:08.800 --> 01:21:14.520 of this and planted the suggestion, a very strong suggestion, that the boys 899 01:21:14.600 --> 01:21:19.079 be moved to Australia and mc gibbs in fact moved to Australia in nineteen fifty 900 01:21:19.119 --> 01:21:25.640 eight, and that's where the brothers started singing together and they formed the Little 901 01:21:25.680 --> 01:21:30.760 Singing Group and the sound was recognizable in the early days. The three part 902 01:21:30.920 --> 01:21:34.159 harmonies that Robin's cleared by brod a voice leading the way and then Berrys are 903 01:21:34.199 --> 01:21:39.279 in the falsetto became the trademark in the disco era of the seventies. Now 904 01:21:39.760 --> 01:21:44.079 this is the first big hit record. Okay. They wrote this song while 905 01:21:44.119 --> 01:21:48.199 sitting in the darkened stairway in England at the Polydor recording place, and it 906 01:21:48.319 --> 01:21:53.079 was dark because it was power outage. And they got the idea for this 907 01:21:53.319 --> 01:21:57.319 from a nineteen sixty six disaster of the whales, but a cone Robig Gibb. 908 01:21:57.319 --> 01:22:00.159 They were actually there actually have been a Money after in New York in 909 01:22:00.279 --> 01:22:05.039 nineteen thirty nine, but not in nineteen forty one. And they thought New 910 01:22:05.159 --> 01:22:10.119 York mone disaster nineteen forty one when New York sun the more glamorous, and 911 01:22:10.600 --> 01:22:15.800 in the song there's that Unison Robin and Barry singing in Unison. Now interesting, 912 01:22:15.760 --> 01:22:19.520 what there is this jockey when the labels sent this out New York Money 913 01:22:19.600 --> 01:22:23.720 was aster nineteen forty one, the radio stations it did, so they hit 914 01:22:23.760 --> 01:22:27.960 a white label and cause yet there's no no band listened on the scene, 915 01:22:28.119 --> 01:22:31.359 no band on the sticker. And so we played on the radio and a 916 01:22:31.439 --> 01:22:35.760 lot of this jockeys because we didn't know that the record promotion guys didn't tell 917 01:22:35.840 --> 01:22:40.000 us. We thought it was the Beatles. It was the gimmick. We 918 01:22:40.119 --> 01:22:43.479 actually thought it was the Beatles, and I was a Fab four and as 919 01:22:43.520 --> 01:22:46.159 a result that that gimmick worked and they had their first hit record. This 920 01:22:46.319 --> 01:22:51.840 was their first hit number fourteen and nineteen sixty. Gim Barbara Merry Christmas, 921 01:22:53.159 --> 01:22:59.520 Happy Birthday, yesterday and more to come. I pray yeah, bone in 922 01:22:59.560 --> 01:23:11.079 the fellow.

That would be terrible. Well, this 983 01:28:49.920 --> 01:28:55.319 topic kind of relates on what problems are having right now. But well, 984 01:28:55.439 --> 01:28:59.439 no, the only we're having a singular problem. And his name is Liam, 985 01:28:59.720 --> 01:29:05.039 But I thought it was the front of the Western Hills Country Club looked 986 01:29:05.039 --> 01:29:09.560 like a feena of the Godfather with all his Cadillacs and black rim house pulling 987 01:29:09.640 --> 01:29:16.880 up. Yesterday, that was wonderful yesterday morning, wonderful time. Yesterday NASA 988 01:29:16.960 --> 01:29:25.279 sent a space mission out to the Belt, the asteroid belt between Jupiter and 989 01:29:26.000 --> 01:29:30.079 Mars. And the thing they did you can't even get Mike's turned on there. 990 01:29:30.159 --> 01:29:34.479 But what they did is they sent the the longest transmitted video from there 991 01:29:34.560 --> 01:29:42.319 was it was nineteen million miles away and they sent one hundred second video of 992 01:29:42.960 --> 01:29:45.239 Brooks. He might be jealous, but they sent a video of Tater's the 993 01:29:45.319 --> 01:29:51.000 cat chasing a laser and the video was it's pretty amazing because they downloaded two 994 01:29:51.039 --> 01:29:57.479 our sixty seven megabytes per second from transmission from all the way out there at 995 01:29:57.520 --> 01:30:02.479 the asteroid belt to here on Earth to another We're doing that because we're trying 996 01:30:02.479 --> 01:30:06.760 to get videos set up when we start doing these long, long excursions from 997 01:30:06.800 --> 01:30:13.279 Mark, we have to have the ability to send not just vocal communication, 998 01:30:13.439 --> 01:30:17.720 but the video too. So you know, remember when we were watching all 999 01:30:17.720 --> 01:30:23.319 those Apollo missions and they would send the video back of the all black and 1000 01:30:23.359 --> 01:30:26.359 white and rainy. I think the first few, I think an ones were 1001 01:30:26.359 --> 01:30:30.199 actually in color, but which is amazing enough in the nineteen seventies. But 1002 01:30:30.479 --> 01:30:35.560 so they sent a video from nineteen million miles away and it was pretty you 1003 01:30:35.600 --> 01:30:40.319 know, high quality transmission. So now we have the going to have the 1004 01:30:40.359 --> 01:30:46.159 ability to be able to have a really good video transmission from hopefully someday from 1005 01:30:47.119 --> 01:30:51.359 way out there, hopefully someday from Mars. You know, we've done such 1006 01:30:51.359 --> 01:30:55.239 a great job with this planet. Do we really need to screw up the 1007 01:30:55.319 --> 01:31:00.039 rest of them in the Solar System? That's my question. They have a 1008 01:31:00.079 --> 01:31:03.359 great Christmas. Hey you two, thank you. Say it's Mike Peter Bronson. 1009 01:31:03.399 --> 01:31:05.760 How are you, my friend?

I have to read it today. 1039 01:33:39.199 --> 01:33:45.039 We're coming from Isaiah seven to fourteen. It says, therefore the Lord 1040 01:33:45.159 --> 01:33:49.079 himself, they'll give you a sign the virgin will concede and give birth to 1041 01:33:49.279 --> 01:33:55.079 a son and will call him Emmanuel. That's the good news. Gary. 1042 01:33:55.600 --> 01:34:00.920 Now consider this and my friend Scott Powell, who's a great history and scholar 1043 01:34:00.720 --> 01:34:10.760 and Christian, talk about the the realities of God on earth, Jesus Christ 1044 01:34:11.840 --> 01:34:17.159 is for this is foretold thousands of years before it happens in books like Isaiah. 1045 01:34:18.520 --> 01:34:23.760 Yeah, what's that? What's that Pete seven hundred years, seven hundred 1046 01:34:23.840 --> 01:34:28.159 years before the birth of Christ, seven hundred years written seven hundred years before, 1047 01:34:28.640 --> 01:34:30.960 and he talks about a virgin birth and it happened, and he describes 1048 01:34:31.039 --> 01:34:36.159 it the same way. Yes. In fact, in Matthew they directly quote 1049 01:34:36.800 --> 01:34:42.800 Isaiah God with us and Manuel, God with us. There's the Christmas gift 1050 01:34:42.880 --> 01:34:47.000 God with us. That is, that is corroboration of the Christmas story from 1051 01:34:47.039 --> 01:34:50.920 the New Testament, hundreds of years before it ever happened. Prophecy. That's 1052 01:34:51.000 --> 01:34:58.039 amazing, brother Green.

And did you know right across the street at Pompilios, they had 1066 01:35:47.520 --> 01:35:53.279 the first liquor license in Kentucky after Prohibition. You would know that. So 1067 01:35:53.359 --> 01:35:58.119 it's a very historic section of town right there, absolutely on the east side 1068 01:35:58.399 --> 01:36:01.279 of Newport.

And your other Christmas 1085 01:37:18.359 --> 01:37:23.000 tradition is what Tomali's. Now, how did you get hooked? It was 1086 01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:26.119 that prem your time in Arizona it was when we lived in Tucson. It 1087 01:37:26.279 --> 01:37:30.760 was an annual tradition that the whole crew at the Tucson Citizen would get together 1088 01:37:30.239 --> 01:37:34.399 and make Tomali's at Christmas. We would make green corn Tomali's. Everybody had 1089 01:37:34.439 --> 01:37:39.640 their role. Some were, you know, roasting the the green chilis. 1090 01:37:39.720 --> 01:37:43.600 Others were mixing the mossa and and everything. And then you were in the 1091 01:37:43.680 --> 01:37:46.279 assembly I was in the assembly line usually right, trust me with that other 1092 01:37:46.359 --> 01:37:51.800 stuff. But today you're everything. You're the assembly line, you're the chief, 1093 01:37:54.760 --> 01:37:59.000 You're the Tamali Kingsmas. Well, now I order them from the Tucson 1094 01:37:59.079 --> 01:38:04.199 Tomali Company, which makes fantastical. I was tasked with making the Christmas dinner, 1095 01:38:04.640 --> 01:38:11.159 oh really at my parents, and I thought, what could be easier 1096 01:38:11.239 --> 01:38:14.239 than doing New Year's just a week ahead of time. So I've got two 1097 01:38:14.319 --> 01:38:17.359 briskets of corn beef and cabbage and nice black eyed peas, we do some 1098 01:38:17.479 --> 01:38:21.000 corn bread and stuff. Just put them in the crockpot about six o'clock Christmas 1099 01:38:21.039 --> 01:38:26.319 morning. Wonderful, they'll be ready at noon. Just set it and forget 1100 01:38:26.359 --> 01:38:28.800 it. Well, listen, I hope you have a very blessed Christmas. 1101 01:38:29.000 --> 01:38:30.159 Thank you.

Trick Mahomes shirt for my birthday from my wife yesterday, and 1152 01:43:14.720 --> 01:43:18.479 I was very pleased with well pleased with my my red and gold number fifteen. 1153 01:43:19.199 --> 01:43:23.319 You are in Are you in Pittsburgh? Did you go to Pittsburgh? 1154 01:43:23.560 --> 01:43:27.840 You're hanging here at home and I'm hanging here at home watching the game this 1155 01:43:27.960 --> 01:43:32.319 afternoon. That smoked Justice and Covington. Oh nice, what great food there. 1156 01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:39.399 Listen. So are they paying you to be there? Yes, okay, 1157 01:43:40.119 --> 01:43:45.399 just check it. I'll be There'll be no justice at all for me, 1158 01:43:45.479 --> 01:43:48.199 and I'll be at home not getting paid. So but good for you 1159 01:43:50.079 --> 01:43:55.119 you. Uh you see last night with a win over Stetch and the Hatters. 1160 01:43:55.600 --> 01:43:58.039 How are the bear Cats? I mean the bear Cats are like ten 1161 01:43:58.119 --> 01:44:02.000 and two. They're not terrible but we don't know if they're going to do 1162 01:44:02.079 --> 01:44:05.079 anything in the Big twelve, and they've they've been kind of uneven so far. 1163 01:44:05.199 --> 01:44:11.039 What what's the most progress report on the UC Bearcats basketball team so far 1164 01:44:11.199 --> 01:44:15.199 this year. I think they have a lot of really good pieces. I 1165 01:44:15.319 --> 01:44:18.119 don't know that they've used the twelve games to make the pieces. Still, 1166 01:44:19.279 --> 01:44:24.840 there have been high points. Excuse me, Daniel Skillings last night simply provided 1167 01:44:24.840 --> 01:44:28.720 a bunch or twenty nine points off the bench to go along with ten rebounds. 1168 01:44:29.319 --> 01:44:31.720 Unfortunately, in the five games prior he had shot nine of thirty four. 1169 01:44:31.880 --> 01:44:35.600 That there's just right now. I think nothing that on a game to 1170 01:44:35.680 --> 01:44:40.640 game basis you could really hang your hat on. You know, they defend 1171 01:44:40.720 --> 01:44:43.680 for stretches, but I'm not sure you can count on them being a great 1172 01:44:43.720 --> 01:44:46.439 defensive team. They get really good point guard play for stretches. I'm not 1173 01:44:46.560 --> 01:44:49.199 really sure you could say, well, going into a tough game against a 1174 01:44:49.239 --> 01:44:53.800 good Big twelve team, they're going to get big good point guard play. 1175 01:44:54.119 --> 01:44:58.760 They have quality big players, especially now that Jamil Reynolds and disease VANDEGO have 1176 01:44:58.920 --> 01:45:01.520 been declared. But I'm not sure in a game to game basis you can 1177 01:45:01.600 --> 01:45:03.600 go. You know what, They're going to have an advantage in the post, 1178 01:45:03.640 --> 01:45:08.520 and I think that's I think that's been a disappointing part of the last 1179 01:45:08.520 --> 01:45:11.640 twelve games. I think if you look at the pieces they have, they 1180 01:45:11.680 --> 01:45:14.880 have good outside shooters and guys who can get to the rim. They have 1181 01:45:14.960 --> 01:45:19.119 good perimeter defenders, they have quality big players who could do a multitude of 1182 01:45:19.199 --> 01:45:25.880 things. But the pieces haven't fit in the toughest games they have played. 1183 01:45:26.560 --> 01:45:29.560 And they're going to play a team that's ranked in the top twenty five two 1184 01:45:29.600 --> 01:45:31.680 weeks from today, and that's going to be the first of many ranked teams 1185 01:45:31.720 --> 01:45:34.680 they play in the Big twelve. All right, all right, fantastic. 1186 01:45:35.720 --> 01:45:41.640 I wanted to ask you about UK because I have some very enthusiastic Wildcat fans, 1187 01:45:41.680 --> 01:45:45.000 as you can imagine in the bar that I work that I work in 1188 01:45:45.159 --> 01:45:49.439 in northern Kentucky, and was talking to one gentleman who has been kind of 1189 01:45:49.479 --> 01:45:54.119 a semi regular customer over the years, and he is very enthused, very 1190 01:45:54.239 --> 01:45:59.399 high on what Caliperry's cooking in Lexington. What have you seen so far from 1191 01:45:59.479 --> 01:46:02.520 the UK Wildcats? I would agree with that assessment. You know, they 1192 01:46:02.880 --> 01:46:10.439 they fit more the mold of the better John Caliperi teams that we've seen play 1193 01:46:10.439 --> 01:46:13.520 at Kentucky, I think more so than anything they've put on the floor over 1194 01:46:13.560 --> 01:46:15.840 the last three, four or five years. I don't think they're as talented 1195 01:46:16.119 --> 01:46:19.159 as some of those teams, but just the way they play, in the 1196 01:46:19.199 --> 01:46:24.479 way they built, just in terms of pure roster construction, I think would 1197 01:46:24.479 --> 01:46:28.079 be a little bit more reminiscent of you know, what he was able to 1198 01:46:28.119 --> 01:46:30.840 accomplish in the first half of his tenure at Kentucky when he was routinely getting 1199 01:46:30.840 --> 01:46:35.319 to the final four and winning SEC championships, as opposed to you the last 1200 01:46:35.359 --> 01:46:39.199 few years. When you know, to me, it wasn't that dissimilar from 1201 01:46:39.199 --> 01:46:42.439 what we said about UC, where it was just over the last few years, 1202 01:46:42.520 --> 01:46:45.319 a collection of good players, but not a cohesive unit that fit. 1203 01:46:45.680 --> 01:46:51.920 This seems a little bit more like a team that fits really really nicely with 1204 01:46:53.159 --> 01:46:57.520 very good players. I don't know that I consider them, you know, 1205 01:46:57.720 --> 01:47:02.800 Bonafied National Championship contender, but they're very very good. Obviously they're with over 1206 01:47:02.920 --> 01:47:08.000 Louisville. You know, Frankly was more about how did Louisville joy embarrassment in 1207 01:47:08.039 --> 01:47:11.560 that game against Kentucky, since that program is an absolute mess. But John 1208 01:47:11.640 --> 01:47:14.520 cala Perry's got a good team. He's got a team that's fun to watch. 1209 01:47:14.920 --> 01:47:17.920 Obviously they've had some hiccups. Losing the UNC Wilmington is not something that 1210 01:47:18.079 --> 01:47:20.840 you expect. They've got one of my favorite players in the country, and 1211 01:47:20.920 --> 01:47:25.119 Rob Dillingham, who's awfully fun to watch, can still it up very very 1212 01:47:25.199 --> 01:47:28.439 quickly. That's a good team that John cali Perry has and it feels like 1213 01:47:28.600 --> 01:47:32.439 again that this is more along the lines of the sort of team that Cal 1214 01:47:32.600 --> 01:47:36.920 had over the first you know, five six years of his tenure in Lexington. 1215 01:47:38.000 --> 01:47:43.640 In the last five or six years, what about this Shepherd kid terrific? 1216 01:47:44.079 --> 01:47:46.560 Yeah, no, they have they have They have guys who can come 1217 01:47:46.640 --> 01:47:53.640 at you in every conceivable way. And you know, he's obviously been terrific. 1218 01:47:53.800 --> 01:47:58.560 Was great the other night against Louisville. For those who haven't watched Kentucky 1219 01:47:58.680 --> 01:48:02.239 this year, you know, Caliperi is a polarizing figure. They play well, 1220 01:48:02.399 --> 01:48:05.439 they play cohesively, they have a lot of guys they can come at 1221 01:48:05.479 --> 01:48:10.039 you. They've had to play without bigs for large stretches. The times They're 1222 01:48:10.079 --> 01:48:15.760 really really good, fantastic. Let's focus on today bigger loss for the Bengals 1223 01:48:15.920 --> 01:48:23.199 on the end report Cam Taylor Britt or Jamar Chase or the fact that DJ 1224 01:48:23.359 --> 01:48:27.680 readers out for the year. What's the bigger deficit for the Bengals just in 1225 01:48:27.960 --> 01:48:30.880 this game today. Yeah. I think if you look at history, right 1226 01:48:30.960 --> 01:48:35.239 the last few weeks, they have survived without Cam Taylor Britt. Last year 1227 01:48:35.720 --> 01:48:41.399 they played four games without Jamar Chase, including one against Pittsburgh. They won 1228 01:48:41.479 --> 01:48:45.880 three of them. When did the Bengals really start to struggle last year defensively 1229 01:48:45.319 --> 01:48:49.239 when they lost DJ Reider? And I think what's frustrating is, you know, 1230 01:48:49.279 --> 01:48:53.159 you look at Jamar Chase, Okay, he's He's terrific. They have 1231 01:48:53.279 --> 01:48:57.199 other really good wide receivers. Cam Taylor Britt is fantastic. You would love 1232 01:48:57.279 --> 01:49:00.039 to have him. It's got some good pieces in the secondary Jobeya Wuzie is 1233 01:49:00.079 --> 01:49:04.000 healthy. What do they have to back up DJ Reader for a defense that 1234 01:49:04.199 --> 01:49:09.760 is already this year really struggled against the run. So I think that is 1235 01:49:09.840 --> 01:49:13.680 a huge absence. Now, Look, it's worth mentioning DJ got hurt last 1236 01:49:13.720 --> 01:49:16.760 week and when they had to be at the end of the game in overtime 1237 01:49:16.880 --> 01:49:20.479 last week on third and one and fourth and one, they were able to 1238 01:49:20.520 --> 01:49:25.359 get stops. But as a general rule, I think you could say that 1239 01:49:25.479 --> 01:49:28.960 Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase, and DJ Reader are three of the five most 1240 01:49:29.000 --> 01:49:31.920 important players on the team. They have figured out ways to win without Jamar. 1241 01:49:32.359 --> 01:49:34.880 They've run the ball effectively over the last couple of weeks, and I 1242 01:49:34.960 --> 01:49:39.279 think that's going to be the interesting thing about today's game. Do they try 1243 01:49:39.359 --> 01:49:42.760 to run against the Steelers because they didn't the first time? But I think 1244 01:49:42.840 --> 01:49:46.239 that the loss that is maybe most troubling right now, as much as you 1245 01:49:46.279 --> 01:49:50.399 would love those other guys, is not having DJ Reader. What do you 1246 01:49:50.479 --> 01:49:55.319 think the dog is saying that's barking in the background. I think he is 1247 01:49:55.359 --> 01:49:59.760 saying, my wife is home from the grocery store. Your dog has a 1248 01:49:59.800 --> 01:50:01.920 wife, wife who also goes to the grocery store. This is a phenomenal 1249 01:50:02.000 --> 01:50:08.279 how about that? Yeah, you're a very very open minded pet owner. 1250 01:50:09.399 --> 01:50:13.319 We are, so, I mean the prospects for the do you feel like 1251 01:50:13.439 --> 01:50:17.399 this momentum the last uh the last two games is going to provide some impetus 1252 01:50:17.439 --> 01:50:20.600 today for these Bengals I mean, can they get over this hump in Pittsburgh? 1253 01:50:21.000 --> 01:50:27.359 And it is this? Are we looking at some degree of this team 1254 01:50:27.479 --> 01:50:31.279 is destined to do things that nobody expects. Well, I you know, 1255 01:50:31.399 --> 01:50:34.560 I think if first of all getting over the hump in Pittsburgh, they're playing 1256 01:50:34.600 --> 01:50:39.119 a place where they've won the last couple of years, so you know they're 1257 01:50:39.560 --> 01:50:44.279 it's it's not like going the Actresser Stadium has been a house of whoores recently 1258 01:50:44.439 --> 01:50:48.359 for for the Bengals. Uh So there's that. I think what's interesting about 1259 01:50:48.399 --> 01:50:53.760 this game is the Steelers came here a month ago and the Bengals said, 1260 01:50:54.000 --> 01:50:57.159 well, we can't run it against him, right, They carried they had 1261 01:50:57.199 --> 01:51:00.279 eight carries for Joe Mixon and that was it and scored ten points. That 1262 01:51:00.439 --> 01:51:03.439 was it. Yeah, yeah, And Zach Taylor says, and it was 1263 01:51:03.520 --> 01:51:06.199 Jake Browning's first starting Zach Taylor after the game says, well, you know 1264 01:51:06.279 --> 01:51:10.399 what, that's just how life is against the Steelers. Well, the Indianapolis 1265 01:51:10.439 --> 01:51:14.199 coach last week, playing with their third and fourth string running backs, ran 1266 01:51:14.279 --> 01:51:16.760 for over five yards to carry, proving yeah, you can't run it against 1267 01:51:16.800 --> 01:51:20.359 them. Now you don't have Jamar Chase you're still playing a backup quarterback. 1268 01:51:20.720 --> 01:51:24.479 To the Bengals say, look, we're not going to let the Steelers dictate 1269 01:51:24.560 --> 01:51:28.279 how we play offense, and we're going to use Chase brown who didn't get 1270 01:51:28.319 --> 01:51:30.800 a carry against Pittsburgh, and we're going to use Joe Mixon and we're going 1271 01:51:30.880 --> 01:51:34.199 to establish a run game, and then we're going to play off of that. 1272 01:51:34.640 --> 01:51:39.359 Or do they say we're going to put it on Jake Browning and see 1273 01:51:39.399 --> 01:51:42.319 if he can go win the game for us, as good as he has 1274 01:51:42.439 --> 01:51:45.159 been. I think that's an awfully dicey proposition. So I think that's the 1275 01:51:45.279 --> 01:51:49.359 interesting thing about this game. I think, from you know, a thirty 1276 01:51:49.439 --> 01:51:53.159 thousand foot view, I think if you look at the Bengals, if this 1277 01:51:53.279 --> 01:51:57.960 team can figure out a way to get into postseason, what a dangerous team, 1278 01:51:58.199 --> 01:52:00.720 because you will have gone in with a full head of steam. If 1279 01:52:00.760 --> 01:52:03.800 this is a playoff team, they have won I'm guessing two out of three, 1280 01:52:04.319 --> 01:52:08.479 which means they have won five out of six, which means they're getting 1281 01:52:08.520 --> 01:52:13.880 really good quarterback play. Getting to the postseason in itself will be an accomplishment. 1282 01:52:13.960 --> 01:52:16.119 They'll play in the playoffs with a degree of house money on the table, 1283 01:52:16.840 --> 01:52:20.439 and they've got a winning pedigree. They've won five playoff games over the 1284 01:52:20.520 --> 01:52:24.399 last two years. They've won tough playoff games on the road. They've got 1285 01:52:24.439 --> 01:52:29.399 a good winning corps. In an AFC where it really feels like it's more 1286 01:52:29.439 --> 01:52:31.479 wide open, if this team can get in, I'm not going to tell 1287 01:52:31.479 --> 01:52:33.800 you I think they're going to go to the super Bowl, but I think 1288 01:52:33.840 --> 01:52:38.840 they can be a really, really tough out. Now. You can't let 1289 01:52:39.119 --> 01:52:42.920 Mason Rudolph beats it today. You can't let a third string quarterback have his 1290 01:52:43.000 --> 01:52:45.479 way with you at home, and you can't fall behind against this team seventeen 1291 01:52:45.520 --> 01:52:49.399 to three like he did last week. But their favor today for a reason. 1292 01:52:49.800 --> 01:52:54.439 If they get this one today, they basically at all likelihood have to 1293 01:52:54.479 --> 01:52:57.760 win one of their last two, and if they do, I would not 1294 01:52:57.880 --> 01:53:00.840 rule out their chances of advancing in the postseason. No. I wish you 1295 01:53:00.000 --> 01:53:05.000 and yours uh and your your dog's wife a very merry Christmas. And just 1296 01:53:05.199 --> 01:53:09.640 know that when I see you, I have I have a gift for you. 1297 01:53:09.760 --> 01:53:16.800 It's a it's a used Orgami set. Callback well done.
