Speaker 1: to the fifty five Carse Morning Show. Help support his campaign.
Speaker 1: Coreybowman dot com is where you find him. Welcome back,
Speaker 1: hopefully the next mayor of the City of Cincinnati, Cory Bowman.
Speaker 1: It's great to have you on the show this morning.
Speaker 2: Brian, it's awesome to be here.
Speaker 1: Thank you, and it's awesome to be you and your
Speaker 1: wife Jordan. Congratulations. I guess yesterday was the big day
Speaker 1: for the delivery of Ezra Ray Bowman.
Speaker 2: Yes, thank you so much. We just had our fourth
Speaker 2: child yesterday morning.
Speaker 1: And beautiful pictures. Obviously, he's a cute baby. All babies
Speaker 1: are cute, and everybody's doing well about that.
Speaker 2: But healthy, very healthy. Yeah, the baby and mom are
Speaker 2: perfectly healthy and happy and we're enjoying it.
Speaker 1: That's wonderful. So congratulations to you on the new addition
Speaker 1: to your household. All right, let's start with just generally speaking,
Speaker 1: how's the campaign going and people helping you out. I
Speaker 1: know you've got an event coming up next Monday. You
Speaker 1: might want to tell folks about that one too, because
Speaker 1: there's an opportunity for them to help out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean for anybody that knows their story. We
Speaker 2: made the decision really in February to get involved in
Speaker 2: this race, and this is our first political race, but
Speaker 2: we've had great momentum, great strategy on that, and so
Speaker 2: we have a big fundraiser that's actually coming up July
Speaker 2: fourteenth downtown Cincinnati. You can go to our website Corey
Speaker 2: Bowman dot com and go all the information there, and
Speaker 2: that's that you could be a part of really helping
Speaker 2: our campaign make the biggest impact going into November.
Speaker 1: And I see that brad Winstrop's going to be there.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So the last person to do it as far
Speaker 2: as running for mayor Cincinnati as a Republican was in
Speaker 2: two thousand and nine, and that was doctor brad winstrip
Speaker 2: And he's a great man. I've had many conversations with him.
Speaker 2: He's got great insight on how to run this race properly,
Speaker 2: and so I asked him that he would consider being
Speaker 2: a part of our first big event.
Speaker 1: He said, yes, Oh, that's great. I'm glad he's helping
Speaker 1: you out. He does it obviously, he's run multiple races before,
Speaker 1: and he did come close when he ran for mayor.
Speaker 1: He came close.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, we hadn't had a Republican mayor
Speaker 2: actually since I believe this nineteen seventy nine, nineteen eighty
Speaker 2: was the original base but last person to run in
Speaker 2: two thousand and nine. When you look at that race,
Speaker 2: he did come fairly close. And through that it opened
Speaker 2: up the doors for a lot of different policies and
Speaker 2: different mindsets to come in the city. And so I
Speaker 2: was very encouraged by our conversations and once get I'm
Speaker 2: very happy to work with them.
Speaker 1: Well, and you live in the West End, so you
Speaker 1: probably see it firsthand. We have a serious crime problem
Speaker 1: in downtown Cincinnati. It seems like it's getting worse and worse.
Speaker 1: Of course, with the summer months and the humanity and
Speaker 1: tench temperatures running high and flaring that that's kind of
Speaker 1: a thing that's sort of generally recognized, but the city
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati, it just seems to be getting so much worse.
Speaker 1: I had FOP President Ken Cobra on yesterday talking about it,
Speaker 1: followed by Christopher Smitheman who was talking about it, and
Speaker 1: it was an interesting statement. There was just the other
Speaker 1: day a fourteen year old boy shot dead in Avondel
Speaker 1: happened yesterday. WCPO interviewed Bishop Ennis Tate, who had this statement.
Speaker 1: He said, it's literally a public health issue and the
Speaker 1: spirit of violence is contagious. If we treated this gun
Speaker 1: violence as seriously as we did COVID, it will be
Speaker 1: a different outcome for our city. And I was thinking
Speaker 1: to myself because both FOP President Ken Kober and Christopher
Speaker 1: Smith and were both complaining about the deafening silence from
Speaker 1: the Mayor's office and council on this violence that's going on.
Speaker 1: They don't speak a word about supporting the police or
Speaker 1: encouraging communities to engage with and help the police find
Speaker 1: the bad guys and prevent violence. That's what was done
Speaker 1: during COVID. Elected officials took it very seriously or out
Speaker 1: literally every day telling us what we could do and
Speaker 1: could not do. It was a twenty four to seven
Speaker 1: news cycle involving nothing but COVID, COVID, COVID from elected officials.
Speaker 1: You would think, given the gravity of the problem in
Speaker 1: the city with violence, that we might get some something
Speaker 1: out of the administration. But nothing. I mean, how do
Speaker 1: you what's your reaction to that? Is that your perception
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman.
Speaker 2: Well, no, I think it's funny that you mentioned that,
Speaker 2: because actually the biggest thing to help that motivated us
Speaker 2: to start our church was all the things that was
Speaker 2: happening during COVID, Because if we learned anything from COVID,
Speaker 2: it was the importance of your local leadership and your
Speaker 2: local city government because during that time there were so
Speaker 2: many mandates and so many things that was actually going
Speaker 2: against the rights of people, but they were taking it
Speaker 2: very seriously because it was seen as a very big
Speaker 2: social issue. Well, then we've got this thing that is
Speaker 2: actually impacting our streets on a daily basis. You've got,
Speaker 2: like you said, a fourteen year old kid gets shot,
Speaker 2: But then we don't hear anything from it. It's because
Speaker 2: the political correctness of everything might not be in the
Speaker 2: handbook right now, and they're trying to figure out what
Speaker 2: to do. But we've got to take action right now,
Speaker 2: and it's even about being reactive right now. This is
Speaker 2: something that if you live downtown, if you lived anywhere
Speaker 2: close to the city, then you saw this coming. Even
Speaker 2: in winter and springtime. There were so many people that
Speaker 2: were warning that this once the weather was going to
Speaker 2: get warmer, that this was going to happen based on
Speaker 2: what they were seeing in the city, and they were
Speaker 2: doing what they thought they could do when it came
Speaker 2: to the Act Cincinnati programs or whatever. But the reality
Speaker 2: of it is that they're not taking the right approach
Speaker 2: when it comes to decreasing crime in our city.
Speaker 1: Well, what approach would Corey Bowman take. I know one
Speaker 1: of the problems in the frustrations expressed by Ken Kober,
Speaker 1: the FOP president, was you know, we do have a curfew,
Speaker 1: and we've got these roving gangs of teens that outnumber
Speaker 1: people and threaten people and commit acts of crime and violence,
Speaker 1: generally making the downtown area kind of like a very
Speaker 1: unwelcoming environment and frightening people away. Like you want to
Speaker 1: go to Ruby's for dinner, No, because at seven o'clock
Speaker 1: dinner reservation means I'm not going to get done till
Speaker 1: maybe nine or nine point thirty, perhaps even ten o'clock,
Speaker 1: and you don't want to be walking around down there
Speaker 1: at that late hour, I'm afraid. So you've got that.
Speaker 1: But then, as Ken pointed out, if we pick someone
Speaker 1: up and arrest them for violating the curfew, they don't
Speaker 1: even prosecute them. The minute the magistrates will just dismiss
Speaker 1: the case. They will be left back out on the streets,
Speaker 1: no record, no no consequences. I mean, there's a problem
Speaker 1: in and of itself the people. The police can issue
Speaker 1: tickets and arrest people, but there's apparently no follow through
Speaker 1: on the judicial end of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, whenever you look at what's going on in
Speaker 2: our city, a lot of people want to look at
Speaker 2: the police department and want to look at certain individuals.
Speaker 2: But this comes from the top down. This is the
Speaker 2: culture that they've set and that they've put the morale
Speaker 2: of our police officers at the lowest level it could.
Speaker 2: What's happening right now is that because the month of June,
Speaker 2: crime was spiking like crazy, and in our even in
Speaker 2: our coffee shop on my phone, I was on the
Speaker 2: phone with cops on a regular basis, just trying to
Speaker 2: figure out and learn what's the morales, what's the situation
Speaker 2: going on within the police department. And there was a
Speaker 2: general consensus from talking with multiple police officers, not just heads,
Speaker 2: but I mean I'm talking about beat cops and those
Speaker 2: that are doing the everyday work, and the general consensus
Speaker 2: is they're not happy with the support from their local government.
Speaker 2: They're not happy with the support or even the enforcement
Speaker 2: from the prosecutors. Like you were talking about. They feel
Speaker 2: like that they're not supported as far as if they
Speaker 2: were to make arrests or if they are to do
Speaker 2: certain things to do their job, that they wouldn't have
Speaker 2: the full backing of their city leaders. And then when
Speaker 2: it comes to the prosecuting, Yeah, it's a revolving door
Speaker 2: of criminals that go in and then they go out
Speaker 2: and they do the same things. And so a lot
Speaker 2: of officers don't even see the point of it, because
Speaker 2: what's the point of booking somebody that's going to be
Speaker 2: right back on the streets doing the same thing the
Speaker 2: very next week. And so this is from the top down,
Speaker 2: and these are things that have to change. Our police
Speaker 2: officers love our city, Our police officers want to protect
Speaker 2: and serve our state. That's why they got into the job.
Speaker 2: But right now you're seeing officers, even at a rapid pace,
Speaker 2: they're saying that, hey, when retirement comes up, you know,
Speaker 2: I'm I'm out because there's no way that we're going
Speaker 2: to subject ourselves to this on a regular basis.
Speaker 1: Well, and I think it's worse than that. According to
Speaker 1: to Ken, people are retiring early. They're just saying, no
Speaker 1: the hell, I'm not even going to go through the
Speaker 1: drop program, which benefits those officers who make it through
Speaker 1: the drop program a lot in terms of finances and
Speaker 1: their pension payment. So if they're not willing to stick
Speaker 1: it out to their own financial benefit, that means that's
Speaker 1: a bad sign right there, Corey.
Speaker 2: No, it is, And so you have to start like
Speaker 2: day one you asked what would we do different as
Speaker 2: being the mayor, Well, first off, I would say that
Speaker 2: this needs to be done right now. It doesn't just
Speaker 2: need to be done after a November election. There's lives
Speaker 2: on the line right now. They're doing things to try
Speaker 2: to help. They've actually implemented lateral hiring and a bunch
Speaker 2: of other things that they're trying to decrease the crime.
Speaker 2: But I think the number one is that the police
Speaker 2: officers have to feel like the city has their back. Yeah,
Speaker 2: whether it be through whether it be through pres conference,
Speaker 2: whether it be through social posts, whatever it is. They
Speaker 2: have to know that the police officers are getting the
Speaker 2: support and the backing from their city officials. And then
Speaker 2: when it comes to their everyday jobs, you've got to
Speaker 2: untie the hands of the police officers and you got
Speaker 2: to let them do their job. And then from the
Speaker 2: profts gear standpoint, you've got to put you've got to
Speaker 2: put a very big encouragement on the profits cures and
Speaker 2: say we have to have harsher sentences.
Speaker 1: We've got to be able to enforce these laws.
Speaker 2: Because you can say, hey, we're implementing this policy, We're
Speaker 2: implementing this, but there's no consequences to it. And so yeah,
Speaker 2: on the surface, it looks like you're trying, but from
Speaker 2: the background of it all, it's not doing any good
Speaker 2: because people are just going through that revolving door again.
Speaker 1: All right, pause, We'll bring Corey back for some more
Speaker 1: thoughts and ideas about the crime problem and other ideas
Speaker 1: in the City of Cincinnati seven sixteen. Right now, an
Speaker 1: opportunity for me to mention well, QC kinnets folks out
Speaker 1: there experiencing pain, the arthritic pain, knee, hip, shoulder, and
Speaker 1: you've done the cycles of steroid shots and you know
Speaker 1: that goes away, and you're talking about surgery with your doctor,
Speaker 1: and you know what that's going to be a lot
Speaker 1: of downtime, physical therapy, no genuine answer to whether or
Speaker 1: not it's going to actually help. That's a big leap
Speaker 1: right there. Why not go for a second opinion. QC
Speaker 1: Kinetics is offering a free consultation helping people well get
Speaker 1: their lives back together without more medications, without without going
Speaker 1: under the knife. They're the leader in regenerative medicine using
Speaker 1: treatments like advanced cellular therapy and platelet rich plasma, using
Speaker 1: your body's own natural healing properties to help your body
Speaker 1: heal itself. Injected right there where that pain is. These
Speaker 1: cellular level of treatments contain growth factors and healing properties
Speaker 1: to maximize your body's ability to heal itself. Huge success rate.
Speaker 1: Ninety two percent of patients report satisfaction with the results.
Speaker 1: That's pretty significant. So it's truly working for folks just
Speaker 1: like you. So are you a good candidate. Why not
Speaker 1: take them up on the free consultation to find out
Speaker 1: out Call QC Kinetics and talk to them. Five one

Speaker 1: If you have KCD talk station, Corey Bowman from ARIS Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: Corey's on the line right now. You can go to
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman dot com get your tickets for the event
Speaker 1: next Monday, the fundraiser, uh and learn more about his policies,
Speaker 1: platform and how to help him out. Oh look, the
Speaker 1: big donate today click so donate to Corey's campaign. There
Speaker 1: are choices to be made, and doing the same thing
Speaker 1: over and over again certainly doesn't appear to be going
Speaker 1: to be doing anything to better our so our situation
Speaker 1: with the crime in downtown. You know, talking with Smith
Speaker 1: Aman yesterday during the Smith event, Corey Uh, he I
Speaker 1: think he hit the nail on the head, I asked,
Speaker 1: I said, you know, Christopher, you live in one of
Speaker 1: the fifty two neighborhoods in the city. You interact with
Speaker 1: people in the various communities. I mean it's notably uh,
Speaker 1: you know, like for example, the African American or black community.
Speaker 1: He talks to folks, what do they really want insofar
Speaker 1: as policing. Are they against policing in their neighborhood, Do
Speaker 1: they think police are all terrible people? Or would they
Speaker 1: prefer a big police presence? He said no, overwhelmingly, it's
Speaker 1: the silent majority. They like the police, They want the police,
Speaker 1: they want safer neighborhoods. And yet the council members, you'd
Speaker 1: think they could tap into that phenomenon. If it's what
Speaker 1: people want, then be a representative for any representative situation here,
Speaker 1: which is what they're supposed to do, and tell people
Speaker 1: that they've got their back, Tell people that we want
Speaker 1: the police there. Tell people that we're hoping to approve
Speaker 1: public safety with the greater police presence. All of that
Speaker 1: might resonate really well with the citizens of the city
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati who are struggling with the crime problem. As
Speaker 1: it turns out, though, his suggestion was that it's this
Speaker 1: is motivated out of the far left wing of the
Speaker 1: Democrat Party, who are the defund the police. Rethink the
Speaker 1: police folks, they are the loudest, squeakiest wheels in spite
Speaker 1: of the fact that they don't represent a majority of
Speaker 1: people who have to live around the crime, and yet
Speaker 1: they show up to vote. You saw what ten percent
Speaker 1: of the citizens of City Cincinnati showed up for the primary,
Speaker 1: and you know it was probably a whole bunch of
Speaker 1: these radical leftists that showed up in order to get votes.
Speaker 1: I guess you have to appeal to that group because
Speaker 1: you at least know they're going to show up at
Speaker 1: the ballot box, unlike I guess the rest of the citizens.
Speaker 1: What's your take on that? In Natty Field Corey, Well, what.
Speaker 2: I would say is that on it was actually last week,
Speaker 2: I was walking through the West End and we were
Speaker 2: doing a community outreach. This actually last month. We were
Speaker 2: doing a community outreach where we were doing giveaways and
Speaker 2: we were just providing stuff for the community, and I
Speaker 2: talked with the family that was on the side of
Speaker 2: the street. One of the mothers was there. She was
Speaker 2: selling something at a table. Now I go up to
Speaker 2: them and I'm not even promoting the campaign. I'm just
Speaker 2: promoting this outreach that we're doing because we want to
Speaker 2: be able to bless people. And as we're doing it,
Speaker 2: the lady looks at me and says, you're the one
Speaker 2: running for mayor right now. This is a family that
Speaker 2: lives in a very low income area. And so there
Speaker 2: was two moms and there was probably about about seven
Speaker 2: kids overall, and one of them was a young gentleman.
Speaker 2: He was about seventeen years old. And they were there
Speaker 2: and they looked at me and they said, what are
Speaker 2: you going to do for our community? I looked at him.
Speaker 2: I said, well, what this community right needs right now
Speaker 2: is they need the gun firing. They need the crime
Speaker 2: to stop in this area. And they just nodded their
Speaker 2: head like enthusiastic. They said, we don't want the crime
Speaker 2: to be hitting our children and affecting us like what
Speaker 2: it's been. And then I started talking to them about
Speaker 2: when it came to having a hand up instead of
Speaker 2: a handout, and we've got to be able to provide
Speaker 2: jobs and programs that not just keep people in poverty,
Speaker 2: but they got to be able to lift people up.
Speaker 2: And we got to give young men like this. I
Speaker 2: pointed to the gentleman right there. I said, we got
Speaker 2: to give him an opportunity to not only live in
Speaker 2: a neighborhood that isn't affected by this crime, but we
Speaker 2: got to give him an opportunity who if he wants
Speaker 2: to get married, have kids and get into how they
Speaker 2: get into a job to where he's able to move
Speaker 2: out of this situation. And they started balling their eyes
Speaker 2: out and they said, you've got our vote. That's exactly
Speaker 2: what our city needs. And I started going through the
Speaker 2: practical processes of them too. But I talk with people NonStop,
Speaker 2: especially in the West End, and the general consensus of
Speaker 2: the community is they don't want this crime, they want
Speaker 2: the police to be involved. They feel forgotten about. But
Speaker 2: like what you said, the people that are the most
Speaker 2: radicalized are the ones that are more active in these
Speaker 2: voting situations. And we've got to change that. We not
Speaker 2: only have to ignite the conservative base and the people
Speaker 2: that we know agree with us, but we've got to
Speaker 2: turn the hearts of the people in the communities around
Speaker 2: to say, hey, we're for you. And I really believe
Speaker 2: that we're going to have record turnouts for the vote
Speaker 2: in November because of this, I hope.
Speaker 1: So when you got that coupled with the right to
Speaker 1: choose your own destiny in any given neighborhood in terms
Speaker 1: of development, I think that's a winner for you. Because
Speaker 1: you're in favor of local decision making when it comes
Speaker 1: to that, unlike the city foisting upon Hyde Park or
Speaker 1: Bond Hill or any other neighborhood. It's vision of the
Speaker 1: future and what can and cannot be developed. So a
Speaker 1: lot of great talking points, a lot of great campaign
Speaker 1: issues for you, Corey, and I can only you know,
Speaker 1: hope and pray that people pay attention and realize you know,
Speaker 1: you do have a choice. Why keep doing the same
Speaker 1: thing over again. If you're unhappy with the current situation,
Speaker 1: you know who is responsible for it, So change course,
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman dot COM's Hey, help Corey out. Corey. Wish
Speaker 1: you best luck on the fundraiser on Monday, and encourage
Speaker 1: my listeners to participate in that. Whether or not they
Speaker 1: live in the city. What happens in the city has
Speaker 1: wide ranging, far reaching implications for everybody, even in the
Speaker 1: entire Hamilton County area, but also northern Kentucky and the
Speaker 1: surrounding county. So let's push him in the right direction
Speaker 1: and help Corey out. Corey, You're always welcome on the
