Speaker 1: Good Billy Cunningham, the Great America, and welcome this Friday
Speaker 1: afternoon of the Tristate and more. Bengals of course play
Speaker 1: Monday Night against the Dallas Cowboys. But until then, as
Speaker 1: you may know, Linda Hansen as an author and a podcaster.
Speaker 1: She's the founder and president of Prosperity one oh one.
Speaker 1: She's written repeatedly on the issue of from woke to
Speaker 1: what and going back in time just a little bit. Historically,
Speaker 1: it used to be employers were equal opportunity. Signs are
Speaker 1: up everywhere, were equal opportunity. Merit counts. Come and apply
Speaker 1: your race, your color, your sexual orientation, your gender means nothing.
Speaker 1: It's about things such as merit, are you good or not?
Speaker 1: Equal opportunity. Then, for many, many years you went through
Speaker 1: affirmative action, which is we're going to specifically hire individuals
Speaker 1: not based necessarily upon merit, but kind of tip the
Speaker 1: scales toward those who have been underserved in the employment arena. Now,
Speaker 1: wokeism is rampant, and that is also collapsing from woke
Speaker 1: to what. Joining you and I now is Linda Hanson
Speaker 1: and Lenda Welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show and lending
Speaker 1: Can you first, tell of the American people what is
Speaker 1: the definition of woke? And from woke to what what
Speaker 1: is woke? Before we talk about John Deere and Walmart
Speaker 1: the federal government, what is the so called definition of
Speaker 1: woke because right now wokeism maybe on the rocks. Please
Speaker 1: explain that to the American people.
Speaker 2: Well, thank you so much for allowing me to be
Speaker 2: on the program. Thank you for the invitation. Woke carries
Speaker 2: many definitions. I think several people describe it differently. But
Speaker 2: I would say that wokism is you know, socialism, and
Speaker 2: it is identity politics. It is really creating division among
Speaker 2: people and judging people not by the content of their
Speaker 2: character or by their merit that you were talking about,
Speaker 2: but by the color their skin, or by their gender
Speaker 2: or you know why people are chosen because of the
Speaker 2: oligarchs or the elites decide that they should be what
Speaker 2: Gism takes away of freedom, and it takes away individuality,
Speaker 2: and it divides people, and it's something that we need
Speaker 2: to get out of our society if we're going to
Speaker 2: keep America free for future generations.
Speaker 1: Then I'll be based upon Meret, explain what happened this
Speaker 1: the idea of hiring and firing. DEI diversity, and DEI
Speaker 1: is incorporated into the body politic. It's really into the groundwater.
Speaker 1: And DEI exists in large ways in corporate America and
Speaker 1: the universities and colleges and government, et cetera. And as
Speaker 1: far as DEI, how deep into the body politic? For
Speaker 1: those marching Marxists who come out of college, how deep
Speaker 1: is that into their soul? Into their cellular structure. DEI
Speaker 1: has been pounded into the minds of children, now young adults,
Speaker 1: and now and the thirties and forties, they dominate companies,
Speaker 1: dominate universities. Explain how deep into the body politic DEI
Speaker 1: has been within universities, et cetera.
Speaker 2: Oh, it is very very deep. Think about what's happened
Speaker 2: in public education over the last several generations. Right, this
Speaker 2: has just been permeated into our public education, into our universities.
Speaker 2: And that is why I feel so called to do
Speaker 2: what I do, which is helping employers to educate employees
Speaker 2: about policy issues that affect their jobs. But it's not
Speaker 2: just about policy issues. It's about you know, first, what
Speaker 2: is prosperity. Prosperity isn't money, it's human flourishing and freedom.
Speaker 2: Why do we have the opportunity for that here in America?
Speaker 2: You know, it seems like in our public education systems
Speaker 2: and in our universities, they've been taught to hate America.
Speaker 2: They've been taught to hate anybody who's French, you know,
Speaker 2: hate the white male, hate anybody who says, you know,
Speaker 2: transgender men can have babies or can't have babies, or
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, they're just taught to divide by
Speaker 2: skin color everything. But I'm saying, look at what America is.
Speaker 2: We have this absolutely beautiful treasure in our constitution which
Speaker 2: protects our god given rights. Government doesn't give us our rights,
Speaker 2: it protects us. And that's one thing we need to
Speaker 2: re educate these young people about. And I say young
Speaker 2: because even you know, twenty thirties forties in the workplace
Speaker 2: don't understand this. So we need to do that. Then
Speaker 2: we need to help them understand the basic economics of prosperity,
Speaker 2: which is, you know, a business is what drives the economy.
Speaker 2: It isn't government. It's business that drives the economy and
Speaker 2: provides opportunity for people to grow and create wealth, and
Speaker 2: expand and innovate and that is really important. Then how
Speaker 2: do you protect that that's becoming informed, involved, and impactful
Speaker 2: is a basic citizenship. So I'm saying we need to
Speaker 2: replace this wolf training in the workplace with training that
Speaker 2: brings back basic understanding of our American system of government
Speaker 2: and basic understanding of how to protect your own prosperity
Speaker 2: or your opportunity to flourish and be free.
Speaker 1: You know, one of the worst examples of DEI diversity
Speaker 1: equity and inclusion would be Disney. I played a year
Speaker 1: or two ago the Disney training and Disney characters. It
Speaker 1: used to be the wonderful World of Disney. It was
Speaker 1: Tinkerbalty and all. It was these characters, and suddenly wokeism
Speaker 1: and DEI invaded, Disney invaded, John Dare invaded. At the
Speaker 1: Ford Motor Company, I see a story about the University
Speaker 1: of Michigan is trying to get rid of DEI and
Speaker 1: changing it completely. What damage has been done to corporate
Speaker 1: America who embraces the idea of diversity, equity and inclusion,
Speaker 1: which is another form of this crimination. What damage has
Speaker 1: happened to corporate America?
Speaker 2: Oh, I think incredible damage to corporate America. We have
Speaker 2: well one, they've lost the trust of American people who
Speaker 2: have common sense, okay, and then two we see a
Speaker 2: decrease in the performance levels. You know, people should not
Speaker 2: be picked to be airline pilots or doctors or nurses
Speaker 2: or dentists or you know, school teachers based on the
Speaker 2: color of their skin or their declared gender. They should
Speaker 2: be chosen for those roles based on their merit, based
Speaker 2: on their capability to do the job. And as we
Speaker 2: have watched problems with air traffic control, we have watched
Speaker 2: so many issues in not only corporate America, but in
Speaker 2: our government sector. We've seen the inefficiency in government. So
Speaker 2: all these people come up through these you know, universities
Speaker 2: and sayings, and they go into leadership positions in the
Speaker 2: government and in corporations and they're clueless. They're absolutely clueless
Speaker 2: about what really makes the economy work and why our
Speaker 2: nation is so amazing and so worthy of our work
Speaker 2: to protect our founding documents or system of government, and
Speaker 2: it just ends up being chaos. Now, thankfully, I think
Speaker 2: people are waking up to this, so we can go
Speaker 2: from wok to awake. We can go from wok to awake.
Speaker 2: They're waking up to it, but we can't just take
Speaker 2: something out. It's like I tell customers, or I mean companies,
Speaker 2: please call me, contact me, go to prosperity one on
Speaker 2: one dot com. I want to help you replace any
Speaker 2: of that DEI training with a simple course on basic
Speaker 2: American civics and economics, like how does policy affect your paycheck?
Speaker 2: Never telling someone how to, never telling someone what to think,
Speaker 2: helping them understand what types of things they need to
Speaker 2: consider when they go to vote. You know, I have
Speaker 2: done workshops since. One of my favorite stories is one
Speaker 2: time I was doing a workshop in a business and
Speaker 2: I was talking to union route drivers who didn't want
Speaker 2: to be there. It was five thirty in the morning,
Speaker 2: it was work, and they didn't want to be there,
Speaker 2: and especially one was rather intimidating to me. So I said,
Speaker 2: asilum prayer. I said, Lord, I want that one right,
Speaker 2: And as the presentation went on, his body language open up.
Speaker 2: Then at the end he said, so let me get
Speaker 2: this straight right. Those policies up there make it hard
Speaker 2: for Jim over here to pay my paycheck and my benefits.
Speaker 2: Why do I want to vote for people who support
Speaker 2: those policies to which I wanted to jump up and down.
Speaker 2: But that's what we need to do. And so I
Speaker 2: tell employers, please, do not be afraid. Employers have been
Speaker 2: fearmongered into silence, and I say, don't be afraid. Speak
Speaker 2: truth to your employees about what actually makes a difference
Speaker 2: in the bottom line of your business, what actually makes
Speaker 2: a difference so that you can pay their paychecks, you
Speaker 2: can pay a bonus at the end of the year.
Speaker 2: Let them know and communicate and when better communication is
Speaker 2: in the workplace, that encourages loyalty, engagement, retention. I mean
Speaker 2: that increases the bottom line right there. So not only
Speaker 2: do we have people who understand how policy affects their paychecks,
Speaker 2: but then they have a renewed awareness of the blessings
Speaker 2: and responsibilities of living in a free society.
Speaker 1: And Linda Hansen, with Trump's election, that certainly is in
Speaker 1: the forefront. The other day, the US Supreme Court had
Speaker 1: oral arguments on the issue of transgender rights.
Speaker 3: And I'm watching this.
Speaker 1: Panel discussion involving Jordan Peterson, and I love that guy.
Speaker 1: And the liberals said, you have to treat someone as
Speaker 1: a self identify So he said, if I look at
Speaker 1: a person who appears to be a woman, I have
Speaker 1: to first ask what are your preferred pronouns?
Speaker 3: Instead of saying, can you do a job.
Speaker 1: And he made the point that gender or shall I say, sex,
Speaker 1: is determined at conception and then revealed at birth. And
Speaker 1: at that point, whether it's xx or x Y at
Speaker 1: the moment of conception, that particular unborn little baby as
Speaker 1: igoat that sex is determined at conception and then revealed
Speaker 1: at birth. It's immutable. You can't change it. I may
Speaker 1: want to become a Filipino, but I can't become a Filipino.
Speaker 3: I'm a white male. And he made the point.
Speaker 1: And he's talking to his panel and this one transgender
Speaker 1: person who works in an ambulance services for a big
Speaker 1: city hospital, and he asked this person who was transgender
Speaker 1: him or herself, and said, what if you come up
Speaker 1: to an accident scene and there's a person there in
Speaker 1: the backseat and great bodily discomfort who.
Speaker 3: Says, I'm having a baby.
Speaker 1: And so you get into the back seat and you
Speaker 1: do the things that necessary to reveal that part of
Speaker 1: the body that delivers a baby, and you look down
Speaker 1: and you see a penis and this person is telling
Speaker 1: you I'm having a baby. And you look down and say, well,
Speaker 1: you can't have a baby, and that that that that's
Speaker 1: that firefighter slash ambulance worker was shocked with the fact
Speaker 1: that you may look at somebody and who identifies differently
Speaker 1: than what they are, but they're not different from what
Speaker 1: they are the moment of conception. Your sex is not
Speaker 1: assigned by some as sign or it is what it
Speaker 1: is xx or x y, and at birth it is revealed.
Speaker 1: So was it illustrative to say, if a person claims
Speaker 1: to be female and I'm delivering a baby and that
Speaker 1: person as a penis, are they a woman? Well?
Speaker 2: You know, the interesting thing is that ambulance driver by
Speaker 2: saying no, you can't have a baby, you have a penis,
Speaker 2: might actually in our whole culture, which is hopefully changing now.
Speaker 2: But you know, they might have been slapped with the lawsuits.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's the most crazy thing. But you can't
Speaker 2: get milk from a bowl, you can't get eggs from
Speaker 2: a rooster, So I mean, this is just common sense.
Speaker 2: And I think this is one of the things where
Speaker 2: you know, they have tried so hard to divide people
Speaker 2: and to brainwash people into compliance into this, and you know,
Speaker 2: the American people aren't stupid. We may be ill informed
Speaker 2: at times, we may be easily fearmongered sometimes, which we
Speaker 2: have to get past. I tell people, God tells us
Speaker 2: in the Bible three hundred and sixty five times, do
Speaker 2: not fear. I'm with you. So it's like there's one
Speaker 2: for every day. You know, we don't have to fear.
Speaker 2: But here's the thing, this whole identifying as right. Okay,
Speaker 2: So does that mean an able bodied athlete can identify
Speaker 2: as disabled and then go compete in the Paralympics.
Speaker 1: I mean where we're Yeah, yes, absolutely absolutely, that's talk
Speaker 1: about the specifically, the Ford Motor Company explain and they've
Speaker 1: caught so much flak. I see stories in the Wall
Speaker 1: Street Journal. They're two hundred thousand employees backing away from
Speaker 1: so called DEI explain the Ford Motor Company, the history
Speaker 1: of the resolution, and then the blowback.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, the blowback too has been incredible in
Speaker 2: terms of people not wanting to abide by this. This
Speaker 2: left is just transgender DEI crt everything. It's people are
Speaker 2: fed up, and you know it isn't just Ford. But
Speaker 2: you look just recently Walmart and I applaud Robbie Starbuck
Speaker 2: If there's any listener out there who hasn't started following
Speaker 2: Robbie or landing Starbuck about what they're doing to get
Speaker 2: these companies to get rid of this ridiculous stuff in
Speaker 2: the workplace, please do. Walmart just recently decided they're going
Speaker 2: to take DEI out of their training programs, and they're
Speaker 2: going to stop funding pride parades, and you know, John
Speaker 2: Deere and Tractor Supply, these these you know, it's like,
Speaker 2: did they forget that our customers are I mean, like
Speaker 2: the farmers and people, Like seriously, you're telling me that
Speaker 2: people in the Midwest who shop a trust or Supply
Speaker 2: and drive a John Deere out on their farm are
Speaker 2: going to like.
Speaker 4: All this stuff. No, No, And.
Speaker 2: We don't want drag shows for preschools, you know, we
Speaker 2: don't want that, and we don't want these companies funding that.
Speaker 2: And like what Robbie always says is, we don't have
Speaker 2: to agree about everything, like they don't have to you know,
Speaker 2: expouse every single belief that we have. We're just saying,
Speaker 2: be neutral. Just be a company that sells products and
Speaker 2: services and is neutral. And now, as I was saying before,
Speaker 2: I would love to help companies pro something because what
Speaker 2: I have, my online course, my resources and things are neutral.
Speaker 2: It really is. It never tells someone who to vote for.
Speaker 2: It isn't party or anything like that. It's basic understanding.
Speaker 2: And that's what we need to do. We need to
Speaker 2: help people understand the basics and be able to come
Speaker 2: to their mindset themselves. You know, we can't tell them
Speaker 2: how to think, or we can't tell them what to think.
Speaker 2: We have to help them learn how to think and
Speaker 2: not just take things in. We have a culture that
Speaker 2: has just been spoon fed, and you know, and they
Speaker 2: come up through I'd like to have your listeners to
Speaker 2: sink with me. Let's flip the script. They come up
Speaker 2: through grade school, high school, you know, college, they learn
Speaker 2: how to hate America, they learn that capitalism is bad.
Speaker 2: They learn all this and they learn to be entitled.
Speaker 2: And then they go into the workplace and they're carrying
Speaker 2: all these values. Like you said, how deep is it?
Speaker 5: How deep?
Speaker 6: It's very deep.
Speaker 2: And they go into the workplace and they demand all this.
Speaker 2: But they're just in privately held companies alone, there's like
Speaker 2: sixty million employees, right, So what if a percentage of
Speaker 2: them started to wake up and realize, wow, you know,
Speaker 2: we really have a great system of governments here. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we need businesses to be healthy so that we can
Speaker 2: have freedom. We need businesses to be healthy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I tell.
Speaker 1: You the industry itself, according to the Wall Street Journal,
Speaker 1: it is about eight billion dollars of an industry around
Speaker 1: the issue of DEI and transgender rights. And don't make
Speaker 1: great forward products or great tractors. It's a corporate mission
Speaker 1: is to change America to the left towards socialism. And
Speaker 1: for someone to be part of an eight billion dollar
Speaker 1: industry and have the lend the Hanson's of the world
Speaker 1: saying we need to change that. You have one hell
Speaker 1: of a fight ahead of you because at eight billion dollars,
Speaker 1: they're going to fight like warrior posts to keep their money.
Speaker 1: But once again, Lenda Hansen, what is your website? How
Speaker 1: can people contact you? Especially employers and employees. These kids
Speaker 1: have been indoctrinated, not educated, but indoctrinated with hatred of
Speaker 1: the country. You don't see too many American flags flying
Speaker 1: around the UCLA campus. And the difficulty is has taken
Speaker 1: us about twenty years to get here and may take
Speaker 1: twenty years to get out.
Speaker 3: What is your website? If any so people can learn
Speaker 3: more information.
Speaker 2: My website is prosperitywe on one dot com. Please contact
Speaker 2: me there, and you know, let's help flip the script.
Speaker 2: I believe employers are the last front here. If employers
Speaker 2: don't start re educating these twenty thirty forty euros in
Speaker 2: the workplace, who will Lenda Hanson employers join with me?
Speaker 1: Please because it's one hell of a fight. I see
Speaker 1: signs online. Keep your hands off our DEI a lot
Speaker 1: of money at stake. It's not about crucifying the United
Speaker 1: States of America having equal opportunity based upon merit. And
Speaker 1: Linda Hanson, you're a great American and thank you for
Speaker 1: coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you, Linda, Well,
Speaker 1: thank you, God bless America. Let's continue with more now
Speaker 1: your comments at five, your comments at five, one, three, seven, four, nine,
Speaker 1: seven thousand, Bill cunning in the Great American Live at
Speaker 1: your home of the Cincinnati Bengals and more. News Radio
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW by Billy cunning into Great American. And
Speaker 1: of course Monday night, it's going to be a big game.
Speaker 1: Of course should have been bigger than Montana Dallas hosting
Speaker 1: the Bengals. We'll see what happens. Beginning the season, each
Speaker 1: had high hopes. Not so much anymore.
Speaker 3: I think now.
Speaker 1: According to Moeger, there's about a three percent chance to
Speaker 1: the Bengals making the playoffs, which means they have to
Speaker 1: win the rest of their games. Everyone else, especially Denver,
Speaker 1: has to lose the rest of their games. It's possible,
Speaker 1: but quite unlikely. We'll see what happens. After one o'clock today,
Speaker 1: we'll be Sergeant FOP President Emeritus, Dan Hills will be here.
Speaker 1: He's been around about thirty five years. And I think
Speaker 1: the reason the city does not want to make public
Speaker 1: what occurred may have to do with things like personal
Speaker 1: municipal culpability. And the firefighters, I'm told, know exactly what happened,
Speaker 1: and they're kind of beating around the bush a little
Speaker 1: bit to get their ducks in a row before someone
Speaker 1: steps forward and says, this is what occurred. Because what
Speaker 1: occurred is going to give the City of Cincinnati a
Speaker 1: black eye, causing Ohioans, Kentuckians, and Hoosiers unbelievable pain and
Speaker 1: hardship because of the decisions of the City of Cincinnati
Speaker 1: and it's so called homeless population. A person is not
Speaker 1: homeless because they don't have a home.
Speaker 4: Eh.
Speaker 1: A person is homeless because they're mentally ill, or because
Speaker 1: they have drug addiction problems or alcoholism profound. That's why
Speaker 1: they're homeless. Homelessness is a symptom of something much greater,
Speaker 1: which are probably three to five hundred individuals and the
Speaker 1: city of Cincinnat that don't want to go to home
Speaker 1: with shelters and have ordered their lives in such a
Speaker 1: way that they have no assets or friends or family
Speaker 1: members who can take them in, or if they have.
Speaker 1: Those individuals they engage in behavior that makes their attendance
Speaker 1: in someone else's home or some apartment building terrible for
Speaker 1: the landowner or for the parent. Every now and then,
Speaker 1: I have a mom or dad will call me and
Speaker 1: say they have an adult child who's deeply mentally ill
Speaker 1: or addicted to drugs. Alcohol are all three? And how
Speaker 1: many times have you heard of a loving mother or
Speaker 1: father that with an adult child in their twenties, thirties,
Speaker 1: or forties that simply can't get off the bottle or
Speaker 1: the syringe or paranoid schizophrenia with effective components and cannot
Speaker 1: get the proper meds lead a more or less normal life.
Speaker 1: It happens. Believe me, there are thousands of homeowners and
Speaker 1: moms and dads, those who live in apartments, condos and
Speaker 1: trailers in the dry estate, that have adult children that
Speaker 1: cannot conform their behavior to the dictates of the law,
Speaker 1: and they find themselves on the streets having been accepted
Speaker 1: back into a home of a friend or family member repeatedly, repeatedly,
Speaker 1: and they simply will then invite other druggies into the home,
Speaker 1: or they break up the house, or they steal stuff
Speaker 1: to get more drugs, and the parent or the brother
Speaker 1: or the sister or their friend says, I can't take
Speaker 1: this anymore, I'm done, get out, got to change the locks, whatever.
Speaker 1: And then that person does not gravitate toward Green Township
Speaker 1: or Villa Hills. That person gravitates toward downtown Covington or
Speaker 1: downtown Newport. And having listened to Rob Sanders and others
Speaker 1: in my home state of Kentucky, they're not too solicitous
Speaker 1: of individuals living on the streets. They kind of move
Speaker 1: them along, and the message is sent, you better get
Speaker 1: to the city of Cincinnati. They'll handle things for you correctly.
Speaker 1: And so whether it's from Covington or Newport. These individuals
Speaker 1: will come to the City of Cincinnati because of services.
Speaker 1: If you're homeless, it's a very nice place to be
Speaker 1: from most of the year. Right now not so nice,
Speaker 1: it's too cold. But because of the Ohio River, and
Speaker 1: because of Fountain Square, and because of all the begging
Speaker 1: taking place here, and because of the homeless shelters in
Speaker 1: and around OTR, and because of the food pantries available,
Speaker 1: because of all the great charities handing out clothing and food,
Speaker 1: and Cincinnati Downtown is kind of the place to be
Speaker 1: if you're homeless, and then you try to get yourself
Speaker 1: straight and you can't, don't have a support system, then
Speaker 1: you go back. Generally, there's plenty of beds available in
Speaker 1: the homeless shelter, but there's about three to four hundred
Speaker 1: that do not want to go there because they can't
Speaker 1: live the lifestyle they want to live. There's certain basic
Speaker 1: rules you must follow, which is you can't smoke pot inside,
Speaker 1: and you can't use drugs inside, and you can't turn
Speaker 1: tricks inside, and you can't act like a full inside.
Speaker 1: Otherwise you're kicked out. And it's terrible, it's awful, and
Speaker 1: so then it's left to law enforcement left to officers
Speaker 1: like Ken Kober and Dan Hills, etc.
Speaker 3: To deal with this.
Speaker 1: So when I get emails and texts from business owners
Speaker 1: and OTR that tell me there's homeless, drug addicted individuals
Speaker 1: high sleeping in their stoops beginning in their businesses in
Speaker 1: the morning, that parks are overrun with needles, whether Stanbury
Speaker 1: Park in Mount Washington or Washington Park and OTR, it
Speaker 1: happens all the time. So the consequence is that businesses
Speaker 1: are failing left and right all over OTR in downtown
Speaker 1: because the city and the county and the state have
Speaker 1: not dealt adequately with those who are mentally ill that
Speaker 1: become homeless, those that have drug addiction problems and they
Speaker 1: don't want to get off drugs. Good friend of mine,
Speaker 1: Sean Donovan, lives in and around Court Street and downtown
Speaker 1: and we often walk from there to one of the
Speaker 1: restaurants in o TR. And you see it constantly, especially
Speaker 1: in the summertime, of hundreds of individuals on the steps
Speaker 1: of Saint Francis or elsewhere in Washington Park smoking pot
Speaker 1: which by the way, is illegal in public, or syringes
Speaker 1: thither and fro and use condoms or not and it's
Speaker 1: not good, it's not family friendly. What happened with Blink
Speaker 1: in the middle of October is that the city homeless
Speaker 1: population population was kind of told you got to get
Speaker 1: out of here, go down to the High River and
Speaker 1: we'll let you stay there. There's this seventy two hour
Speaker 1: requirement that if the city coppers want to rouse a
Speaker 1: homeless camp from some area they shouldn't be. They have
Speaker 1: to put up notices that you have to be gone
Speaker 1: in seventy two hours. As soon as the cop leaves.
Speaker 1: The first thing that happens is the homeless tear down
Speaker 1: the seventy two hour notice and they simply then you
Speaker 1: come to pick up their belongings and dispose of them.
Speaker 1: Then a fight takes place. Imagine the only thing you
Speaker 1: have life is a tent and maybe a little bit
Speaker 1: of a makeshift bed and some minor possessions, generally in
Speaker 1: a Kroger cart.
Speaker 3: What do you do? The long term solution.
Speaker 1: Is to have a long View state mental hospital facilities
Speaker 1: available throughout the state and which individuals that are mentally
Speaker 1: ill or drug addicted have to stay in a long
Speaker 1: View State type mental hospital that wasn't bond Hill with
Speaker 1: a big barberiar fence around it, in which they have
Speaker 1: guards at the gate, and they keep the homeless in
Speaker 1: those areas until they get help. Many stayed in the
Speaker 1: facilities their entire life because they could couldn't get out
Speaker 1: of their mental illness or the drug addiction, or their alcoholism,
Speaker 1: whatever it might be, and behavior disorders. And that's the
Speaker 1: way it was handled. Because of the wisdom of liberalism.
Speaker 1: They believe that those activities are unnecessary because it's not
Speaker 1: the least restrictive firement. We went to a system of
Speaker 1: group homes and that didn't work. Those individuals that are
Speaker 1: mentally ill and drug addicted can't act reasonably, so they
Speaker 1: leave the group home and they go to homeless encampments
Speaker 1: and others. They have some fun and play some cards,
Speaker 1: throw some dice, share some pot, and act out their
Speaker 1: fantasies and away you go about two thirds or mail
Speaker 1: about one third of female. And it's happening right now
Speaker 1: as I speak, again and again and again. So the
Speaker 1: solution is a large state mental hospital facilities through the
Speaker 1: General Assembly. People like Bill Sitz to get it done
Speaker 1: that way. But the problem is that would cost literally
Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars to buy land to build facilities,
Speaker 1: kind of like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest with
Speaker 1: Jack Nicholson. When that happened, and that movie depicted the
Speaker 1: treatment of Jack Nicholson who was mentally ill, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, the entire mental health system collapse. We can't
Speaker 1: let mental hospitals operate. That's not right. To be gone
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. So then became group homes, and that
Speaker 1: failed group homes now on the street. It is not
Speaker 1: a homeless problem. It is a mentally ill, drug addicted problem.
Speaker 1: We coin into a homeless problem that the city in
Speaker 1: the state spends tens of millions of dollars every year
Speaker 1: on managing the homeless crisis, and it is a crisis.
Speaker 1: So we have Dan Hills coming up with some I
Speaker 1: think somewhat breaking news after one o'clock about what happened
Speaker 1: to this particular one when Sergeant Dan calls individuals and
Speaker 1: the police department intends to get honest answers. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure all what he's going to say, but after one
Speaker 1: o'clock you're going to find out exactly what it is.
Speaker 1: And then away we go. And if you're a police
Speaker 1: officer and you're patrolling OTR. And this is not a problem,
Speaker 1: so to speak, in Hyde Park. It's not a problem
Speaker 1: in Evanston or Avondale, it's not a problem in many
Speaker 1: parts of the tri State. But it is a problem
Speaker 1: downtown because that is where the fun is, is where
Speaker 1: the services are, and if you're mentally ill without a
Speaker 1: place to stay because you've burned all your bridges with
Speaker 1: your family and friends, that's where you go. You don't
Speaker 1: hang out in Kenwood Town Center, you don't hang out
Speaker 1: on Fields Eardle. What you do is hang out in
Speaker 1: downtown Cincinnati. That's where the party is. That's where the
Speaker 1: drugs are, that's where the heroine is, that's where the
Speaker 1: needles are, that's where the fund takes place. So you
Speaker 1: gravitate toward Saint Francis Seraph Church and OTR and local areas.
Speaker 1: That's especially on a warm summer, spring or fall night,
Speaker 1: that's where the action is and that's where you go.
Speaker 1: We have about two million who live throughout the tri State.
Speaker 1: We have a problem with three to five hundred individuals,
Speaker 1: two thirds male, one third female, that are mentally ill
Speaker 1: on drugs and they will not go to homeless shelters.
Speaker 1: I watched the interview the other night with a nice
Speaker 1: woman who's head of the Downtown Council of Residents. In
Speaker 1: Downtown is a great place to live and to work
Speaker 1: into play, but if you're a homeless person, that's where
Speaker 1: you want to be.
Speaker 3: And she said, we don't know what to do.
Speaker 1: We need a solution to so called homeless individuals who
Speaker 1: will not seek help, who say, I will not go
Speaker 1: to the homeless shelter, and I commit crimes every day
Speaker 1: to feed my habit or in order to live my life.
Speaker 1: And the justice center of the county jail is more
Speaker 1: of a mental hospital than a place for criminals. If
Speaker 1: you take out of the Hamlet County Justice Center, those
Speaker 1: are mentally ill and those waiting transport to the state system,
Speaker 1: there's few other people there. And a county jail is
Speaker 1: a terrible place to serve as a mental hospital because
Speaker 1: it's probably one third mentally ill or in the justice center,
Speaker 1: one third are waiting to go to some other facility,
Speaker 1: and one third are serving sentences at one type or another.
Speaker 1: And county jails are terrible mental hospitals. Sheriff Charmaine McGuffey
Speaker 1: does the best she can with what she has, but
Speaker 1: they're not psychiatrists. They're not psychologists. They do have drug
Speaker 1: treatment programs inside the jail, but what do you do
Speaker 1: if you're a homeless type individual and you don't want
Speaker 1: drug treatment. I'm not going through I've gone through that
Speaker 1: ten times and I like the drugs more than I
Speaker 1: like feeling feeling normal, because feeling normal for this person
Speaker 1: is a terrible place to be.
Speaker 3: It's self medication.
Speaker 1: And if someone looks back at their life and look
Speaker 1: at the decisions they've made which have been so wrong,
Speaker 1: they look at their lives and say, how did I
Speaker 1: find myself in this situation? The best way to overcome
Speaker 1: that is to become back on drugs or alcohol and
Speaker 1: as medicine to get to the next day, in the
Speaker 1: next day, in the next day without significant punishment going
Speaker 1: to prison. Going to jail is not a punishment for
Speaker 1: someone who's been there fifty times. And so until the
Speaker 1: State of Ohio says we need regional, well guarded mental
Speaker 1: hospitals in which people can be sent and they're required
Speaker 1: to get treatment in the hospital. Or you can stay
Speaker 1: in the hospital and we'll give you three squares a day,
Speaker 1: but you're not leaving.
Speaker 3: You're staying here.
Speaker 1: You're locked up until you decide to return yourself to
Speaker 1: sanity or get help. A carrot and the stick, and
Speaker 1: right now the carrots are all in the negative thing,
Speaker 1: which is downtown with drugs and other people seminarly situated,
Speaker 1: and the stick doesn't exist. There's no stick. Going to
Speaker 1: jail is not a problem. There's some treatment for mentally
Speaker 1: ill in county jails, but not much. They're not configured
Speaker 1: to do such things until the State of Ohio, mike
Speaker 1: to one another, says enough is enough. We're going to
Speaker 1: do regional state mental hospitals, build new ones.
Speaker 3: Well guarded.
Speaker 1: Individuals can't leave, and if they will not get help,
Speaker 1: and if they have a mental illness that cannot be treated,
Speaker 1: they're staying here, maybe for the rest of their life,
Speaker 1: and that will cost hundreds of millions of dollars, but
Speaker 1: it would also save cities from their eventual destruction. So
Speaker 1: that's the solution. Also coming up later, we'll be Sergeant
Speaker 1: Dan Hills Love speaking with him. He's retired, he's living
Speaker 1: off the fatted calf, but he has some information to
Speaker 1: give you. After one oh five today and more so,
Speaker 1: it's sad, it's very sad. And if I'm a cop
Speaker 1: and I get a call from an OTR business owner
Speaker 1: or a resident saying there's two guys sleeping in the
Speaker 1: front entry away the stoop of my business and I
Speaker 1: can't I can't function like this, and the cop shows
Speaker 1: up the rules and regulations from AFTAB Puerival indicates that
Speaker 1: that next call is through three to one one, which
Speaker 1: is a homeless advocate. We'll go speak with that person
Speaker 1: and try to get them to leave the business or
Speaker 1: get out, and if not, there's is going to the
Speaker 1: county jail. Is not going to make a difference, absolutely not.
Speaker 1: And if I'm a cop, the last thing I want
Speaker 1: to do is get in a fight with a group
Speaker 1: of homeless individuals that have nothing to lose, because the
Speaker 1: syringes and the fist and the knives and the razor
Speaker 1: blades come out and suddenly you're in a life and
Speaker 1: death situation that the city generally will not support you.
Speaker 1: It is said that Scotty Johnson is on city council.
Speaker 1: He's got a good heart and a good head, spent
Speaker 1: many years as a cop. Scotty Johnson he knows the
Speaker 1: difficulty of the problem, but he refuses to step forward
Speaker 1: and say this is the solution, and many will not
Speaker 1: do that. So I look forward in the next I
Speaker 1: don't know, a week or two, might be later this
Speaker 1: afternoon or Monday or Tuesday. Have the city issure a report,
Speaker 1: and it's going to whitewash the problem because the answer
Speaker 1: was within their grasp and they didn't take it because
Speaker 1: they knew there was a homeless encampment underneath four seventy one.
Speaker 1: In fact, Brian Combe said, three or four days ago
Speaker 1: there was a homeless encampment under an I seventy one
Speaker 1: overpass and fires were started by individuals there because guess what,
Speaker 1: it's cold, and they refuse to go to homeless shelters. Now,
Speaker 1: what do you do with someone who refuses to go
Speaker 1: to a homeless shelter who starts a fire onder I
Speaker 1: seventy one. Well, in today's climate, at least for the
Speaker 1: next few days or weeks, they might be arrested, put
Speaker 1: in the justice center for a while, then released, then
Speaker 1: go back to the homeless encampment and will not go
Speaker 1: to the homeless shelter all right, now, what do you do? Well,
Speaker 1: that's the problem right there. Let's continue with more. If
Speaker 1: the line becomes available five one, three, seven, four, nine,
Speaker 1: seven thousand or pounds seven hundredth the new EIGHTE and
Speaker 1: t Xavier loss last night. You see football's home for
Speaker 1: the holidays, No bawl. The basketball team looks pretty good.
Speaker 1: Next weekend's going to be the Crosstown shootout. The Reds
Speaker 1: are getting ready with Tito, and we'll see what happens
Speaker 1: there then. Also, of course, Bengals and Cowboys should have
Speaker 1: been a big game on Monday night. But Joe Burrow
Speaker 1: does the best he can, buying batmobiles, maybe for my
Speaker 1: good friend harry Yagey who owns Batman All on news
Speaker 1: Radio seven hundred WLW, Billy Cunningham.
Speaker 3: The Great American.
Speaker 1: Of course, not much NFL football this weekend with the
Speaker 1: Bengals until Monday night. Dallas Cowboys in Dallas, two teams
Speaker 1: that have gone in shar we say the same direction,
Speaker 1: but the beginning of the season they had different intents.
Speaker 1: Speaking of that, joining you and I now is Sergeant
Speaker 1: Dan Hills, the thirty five year police officer in the
Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati, spent decades as the head of the FOP.
Speaker 1: He knows where the bodies are buried, and Sergeant Dan Hills.
Speaker 1: Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show, and let me
Speaker 1: give you a little bit of precursor with your permission.
Speaker 3: Are you ready?
Speaker 4: You go right ahead, Willie take the show.
Speaker 1: We have Brian Combs with the memo from the city
Speaker 1: telling the coppers do not enforce criminal statutes if it
Speaker 1: involves criminal trespass. That means there must be a secondary
Speaker 1: offense before you arrest someone's homeless. And people have problems
Speaker 1: not because they're homeless. They're have problems because they're mentally ill,
Speaker 1: drug addicted and the alcoholics and they don't want help.
Speaker 1: Otherwise they'd be in the shelters. But I regress. I
Speaker 1: add on your successor in title Ken Kober a couple
Speaker 1: of days ago. He said, well, we're kind of offended
Speaker 1: by this because we took an oath to follow the
Speaker 1: laws of the State of Ohio, the City of Cincinnati,
Speaker 1: US Constitution, and our oath says to us, when we
Speaker 1: see somebody committing a crime in our presence, we have
Speaker 1: to arrest that person. On one hand, but on the
Speaker 1: other hand, the city is telling the coppers don't enforce
Speaker 1: criminal statutes. May I get your reaction first before we
Speaker 1: talk about I four seventy one.
Speaker 4: Well, I think that's the direction that Rolson they have
Speaker 4: not only in Cincinnati, but on other cities that are
Speaker 4: led by fromax term people from the left. They don't
Speaker 4: always want you to enforce the law, especially if it
Speaker 4: doesn't match with their politics.
Speaker 3: And in this case it's true.
Speaker 1: So what do you do when you see someone of
Speaker 1: the steps of Saint Francis or see someone under a bridge?
Speaker 1: In fact, there's a memo from the city that says,
Speaker 1: don't arrest someone criminally trespassing under a bridge unless they're
Speaker 1: committing some other offense such as I don't know, open
Speaker 1: air drug use, or such as starting a fire, or
Speaker 1: such as using drugs. So let's break it down to
Speaker 1: I four seventy one. What can you tell the American
Speaker 1: people about what happened with the ifour seventy one fire,
Speaker 1: with that placeset, that huge playset before it occurred, tell
Speaker 1: the American people the things you told me off the air.
Speaker 4: Well, my understanding is this high sources of information and
Speaker 4: that the city had known about that Holton Cammon for
Speaker 4: about eight weeks now, prior to lawsuits and an agreement
Speaker 4: and stuff. The cops used to be able to do
Speaker 4: some of their job. When it came to these homeless encamments,
Speaker 4: they would give them notice and they would have seventy
Speaker 4: two hours to beat feet or they could go in
Speaker 4: there and take all their stuff. Lother has to do
Speaker 4: with the property being able to seize the property. But
Speaker 4: like like you found out before that the manager doesn't
Speaker 4: want the police officers doing this and doing it directly.
Speaker 4: And therefore there was somebody And why I say somebody,
Speaker 4: one person was handed the job of all these homeless folks.
Speaker 4: And I understand that she's done a decent job when
Speaker 4: she can engage, but she's got way, way way too
Speaker 4: much out on her plate. And so my understanding is,
Speaker 4: like I said, eight weeks that that see encampment had
Speaker 4: been there, and when it was finally going to get
Speaker 4: moved was the morning after that fire. The one would
Speaker 4: maybe think, one would maybe think that there was some
Speaker 4: sort of protest in that fire being set because they
Speaker 4: were going to get the boot that morning. So that's where, uh,
Speaker 4: that's where I think, if if i'm if i'm o
Speaker 4: dot Ohio Department of Transportation, and it gets confirmed that
Speaker 4: the city knew about that and failed to act upon that.
Speaker 4: For for eight weeks and when they're about to act
Speaker 4: on it, they weren't being monitored or or deal with
Speaker 4: any closer this in the in the law run. Really
Speaker 4: this this was preventable. But you know, there's a lot
Speaker 4: of interesting stuff going on with the helmeless because, like
Speaker 4: you said, there's laws that are being broken, but the
Speaker 4: cities don't like deal with that in the old fashioned
Speaker 4: manner of law and order, and it leads to some
Speaker 4: really really uncomfortable things that they're going to have to
Speaker 4: admit to UH when when it comes down to UH
Speaker 4: explaining what happened here in the state of Ohio, they're
Speaker 4: going to have a case of the goo when they
Speaker 4: when and if they find out that my information is
Speaker 4: true that the city knew about that camp for eight weeks.
Speaker 1: And to put a sharper point on this, so the
Speaker 1: city more notified the homeless encampment under four seventy one
Speaker 1: that the vacation of your property is coming and it's
Speaker 1: going to happen. You might recall Halloween, which was October
Speaker 1: thirty first, was a rainy, cold night, and so the
Speaker 1: next morning, November one, the fire started like a two
Speaker 1: or three am on November one, which was cold, and rainy,
Speaker 1: and so you're kind of implicating or stating that those
Speaker 1: homeless there wanted to have a little indirect or direct
Speaker 1: to protest of sorts by starting a fire, maybe without
Speaker 1: the intent of burning down four seventy one, but with
Speaker 1: the intent of saying I'm here, kind of like an
Speaker 1: fu to the city who notified them to leave.
Speaker 3: Am I on the right path?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I was going to I was gonna use that
Speaker 4: very two letters to help explain it and make that
Speaker 4: finer point that you were looking for. This was this
Speaker 4: was a middle finger to the city. And you know,
Speaker 4: I don't know if any of the homeless people or
Speaker 4: structural engineers that realize what damage sho that they would cause,
Speaker 4: but maybe maybe they were hoping for more damage. Who knows,
Speaker 4: but that that's what happened. But there is so much
Speaker 4: dirtiness going on with this, Willy. One of the other
Speaker 4: things I'd found out, I'd never heard this before, so
Speaker 4: I start poking around and asking some questions as a
Speaker 4: out on the scene, Willie reporter, is that we got
Speaker 4: problems with cities like Indy that it will act as
Speaker 4: though it's a city service, saying hey, look, we know
Speaker 4: where there's a lot of more city services than we
Speaker 4: have here in India, and we'll help take you there.
Speaker 4: So they'll load up they're homeless and take them down
Speaker 4: to Cincinnati. So a lot of our homeless ain't our
Speaker 4: homeless if you follow what I'm saying. I don't know
Speaker 4: if you get to own homeless folks, but you think
Speaker 4: where people are born and raised and if they're homeless
Speaker 4: there that you feel a little bit more responsibility for them.
Speaker 4: But if you're homeless, is somebody that just got carted
Speaker 4: in recently from another city that's really some dirty pool
Speaker 4: And apparently that's one of the things that the City
Speaker 4: of Cincinnati is dealing with. It's really great that we
Speaker 4: have services for the homeless, but if we got sell
Speaker 4: any services that it's got words gotten around another municipalities
Speaker 4: that are a little bit more wise on this or
Speaker 4: saying yeah, we'll take a pass on being good with
Speaker 4: the homeless. We'll just help you be good with the homeless.
Speaker 4: And here's some of ours that is that we're in
Speaker 4: a really ugly place.
Speaker 1: So you're saying that cities like Indianapolis, maybe Columbus, Frankfurt, Lexington,
Speaker 1: and the homeless quote community, there's kind of knowledge. If
Speaker 1: you go to Cincinnati, you get three squares a day,
Speaker 1: have nice homeless shelters. You can use your drugs on
Speaker 1: the steps of Saint Francis Sarah Church. You can live
Speaker 1: under a bridge overpasses. When it gets a little bit
Speaker 1: cool at night or cold, you can set fires and
Speaker 1: stay warm. You don't want services like going into the
Speaker 1: homeless shelter because you got to follow rules. But in
Speaker 1: this case, the city has been five weeks, and I
Speaker 1: would say Sergeant Dan Hills that probably the investigators knew
Speaker 1: that morning immediately what happened, which was a barrel fire.
Speaker 1: The goal was to simply burn down the playset, but
Speaker 1: they I don't think they were structural engineers, knowing that
Speaker 1: steel melts at twenty two hundred degrees and that because
Speaker 1: of the circumstances of the rubberized shredded tires that was
Speaker 1: the base of this huge facility and the plastic in
Speaker 1: the so called showboat majestic playset, that that would create
Speaker 1: a circumstance where two thousand degrees could be reached. So
Speaker 1: the original goal was simply to say, hey, I'm here.
Speaker 1: If you were going to burn down this great playset,
Speaker 1: then leave because we were leaving it a few hours later.
Speaker 1: But then you also get information from your sources that
Speaker 1: other cities have started shuffling in their homeless to Cincinnati
Speaker 1: and paying for the Greyhound bus to get here, and
Speaker 1: then they run around.
Speaker 3: Now here's the Are you ready for the big question.
Speaker 4: Let's he let's have it.
Speaker 1: Does the city itself have sufficient beds and homeless shelters
Speaker 1: to handle shall we say, individuals who want to go there?
Speaker 1: And secondly, is it true that the homeless doesn't want
Speaker 1: to go there because of the rules and regulations anyway.
Speaker 4: Both are true, But to your first point, do they
Speaker 4: have the beds? That's an important part about whether or
Speaker 4: not they can give that seventy two hours notice. So
Speaker 4: if I want to hang a notice, I have to
Speaker 4: be able to tell you a place where you can
Speaker 4: get a warm bed, whether you want to take it
Speaker 4: or not. We all know that already that these homeless
Speaker 4: folks do not want to take advantage of services in
Speaker 4: most cases, because if they did, they would be there
Speaker 4: right nice and so you cannot in part of this agreement,
Speaker 4: you cannot hang that notice on the tent in homeless
Speaker 4: campment unless you have a place where you can offer
Speaker 4: them to oh in a sense, you could be making
Speaker 4: them even more homeless, because if they found a bit
Speaker 4: of a home underneath the four seventy one bridge, and
Speaker 4: they have themselves some garbage stay collected, that helps keep
Speaker 4: them warm and drive from the elements. They've created their
Speaker 4: own homeless home. And if you kick them out of
Speaker 4: that with nowhere to go, then you're not meeting the
Speaker 4: terms of the agreement. So we have the we have
Speaker 4: the beds. And because we have the beds, like I said,
Speaker 4: that's gotten around. And I don't know about Columbus and
Speaker 4: Dayton all those others, but I did hear that Napolis
Speaker 4: is one of the cities that apparently, and I don't
Speaker 4: know whether they give them a Greyhound ticket or if
Speaker 4: they put them on a municipal bus, but the City
Speaker 4: of India and other cities across the country are doing
Speaker 4: this since it is not doing this, and I think
Speaker 4: I think that's a good thing. I think that's really
Speaker 4: a dirty pool. If we were to take up a
Speaker 4: bunch of our homeless folks and drive them down to
Speaker 4: Lexington or somewhere like that, you know, that's not solving
Speaker 4: the problem. That's shuffling the problem. Around, But we have
Speaker 4: to start getting back to having a lawful society. And
Speaker 4: that's where Cincinnati has really, uh, you know, failed in
Speaker 4: this case. It's kind of taken some authority away from
Speaker 4: the police. I think they're learning that it has to
Speaker 4: come back to them in the long run. But you
Speaker 4: have the manager's office trying to micro manage this this
Speaker 4: homeless problem, and look where it got them. And like
Speaker 4: I said, in the end, I cannot picture O DOT
Speaker 4: not having a big case that they do over this.
Speaker 4: And I brought up structural engineers before because I don't
Speaker 4: think any of the homostructure structural engineers, but do you
Speaker 4: think a home a structural engineers should have been consulted
Speaker 4: before you put this massive playground thing right underneath the bridge,
Speaker 4: because you said it it's got shreded tires and all
Speaker 4: these things that can burn at a very high rate.
Speaker 4: You mix that in with god knows what homos soaks
Speaker 4: had down there. One of the things I just recently
Speaker 4: heard too, and I'd never realized before there are a
Speaker 4: large amount of thefts all the time from people's backyards
Speaker 4: of their grill. So you want to have a nice
Speaker 4: little tank of gas back there ready for when guests
Speaker 4: come over, so you can you can grow up some
Speaker 4: burgers and some hot dogs and maybe a steak. Well,
Speaker 4: those are what is needed for the homeless people's leaders.
Speaker 4: So guess what they keep getting stolen out of the
Speaker 4: backyards through communities, uh, in the in the in its
Speaker 4: Greater Cincinnati area. So who knows. There could have been
Speaker 4: a couple, three, four or five of those of those
Speaker 4: tanks involved in that fire. But I think the main,
Speaker 4: the main thing you can assume is that that that
Speaker 4: playground with all those shredded tires, became the fuel to
Speaker 4: get a fire hot enough to to burn and and
Speaker 4: corrupt steel. And so you know, I would want to
Speaker 4: know and if I was, oh, I like, who's who's
Speaker 4: brilliant idea was it to put this playground down here?
Speaker 4: I'm fine for the playgrounds, the playgrounds all over the
Speaker 4: place for are you, But don't put them underneath a
Speaker 4: very important route for the sustainability of the economy of
Speaker 4: the greater Cincinnati area. Let's say that was that was
Speaker 4: a fumble. If we were playing football, somebody fumbled that.
Speaker 1: One bad, Well, get the linen out, get the flag out.
Speaker 1: About when this thing developed about fifteen years ago, the
Speaker 1: head of the Cincinnati Recreation Commission, the CRC sent an
Speaker 1: email to O DOT saying, we want to build this playset.
Speaker 1: Here it is, and the guy at O DOT went
Speaker 1: over the list of items prohibited and believe it or not,
Speaker 1: a playset was not prohibited under a bridge. So what
Speaker 1: happened is they put it there. And then about a
Speaker 1: year ago O. Dott sent an email to the City
Speaker 1: Cincinnati complaining about the fact that there's too many homeless
Speaker 1: encampments under bridges. Make sure you clear those out. So
Speaker 1: instead of clearing them out, the city ignored it. And
Speaker 1: that's that's what occurred. And I have a text here
Speaker 1: from a friend, an acquaintance of mine and OTR that
Speaker 1: says the following, Dear Willie, he said, what Hills is
Speaker 1: saying makes a lot of sense. But I see open
Speaker 1: air drug use on the steps of Saint Francis. I
Speaker 1: see urination, fornication, and paid for sex happening all the
Speaker 1: time in and around Saint Francis. I complain to the CPD,
Speaker 1: they pass it off to someone else, nothing happens. So
Speaker 1: when he talks about no secondary offenses, whether it's open
Speaker 1: air fornication, urination, or defication. It's happening right now on
Speaker 1: the streets of Cincinnati, and that's the secondary offense, and
Speaker 1: they still don't arrest. Can you address yourself to that, well.
Speaker 4: Willy, I can tell you that that goes a little
Speaker 4: bit with the depolicing that we've seen since George Floyd.
Speaker 4: If you're going down are and you're gonna deal with
Speaker 4: somebody that's urinating or defecating, or are smoking to join
Speaker 4: or just sleeping in front of Saint Francis there, you're
Speaker 4: gonna want to know that you are going to be
Speaker 4: backed all the way through the tops of your agency
Speaker 4: and through the city manager's office. If all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: this turns to a use of forts, if you have
Speaker 4: to taste this person or something else, God forbid, a
Speaker 4: deadly use of force. If if you find yourself, if
Speaker 4: you find yourself in a life threatening situation, will you
Speaker 4: be back? And we all know what that answer is.
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 4: No, We've shown time and time again that it's as
Speaker 4: soon as something as soon as something becomes a racial
Speaker 4: hot that issue. Can I ask you a question, Willy,
Speaker 4: You're you're always hitting me with questions. Can I ask
Speaker 4: you a question?
Speaker 3: Let me let me get ready. Let me get ready.
Speaker 3: Hold I gotta get ready. Go ahead, get ready, go ahead,
Speaker 3: go ahead.
Speaker 4: If the guy on the subway in New York that
Speaker 4: was going crazy and causing trouble was a white dude
Speaker 4: and the ex marine uh was a black dude, and
Speaker 4: he held him down, and that white dude died when
Speaker 4: the ex marine black dude, uh, you know, held him back,
Speaker 4: so everybody would be safe. Do you think do you
Speaker 4: think that black dude X marine would get would get prosecuted.
Speaker 3: Absolutely not.
Speaker 1: Racial politics has infected almost every part of urban America
Speaker 1: that they supposedly are locked in the Daniel Penny case,
Speaker 1: the fact he's a tall, skinny ex marine white guy
Speaker 1: and the crazy black guy was killed mainly because he
Speaker 1: was on drugs and all kinds of health problems threatened
Speaker 1: to kill people. Racial politics has infected most of our
Speaker 1: major urban areas.
Speaker 3: Including the city of Cincinnati. Would you agree?
Speaker 4: And that's my point with Saint Francis are that you
Speaker 4: hit My mother worked here many years ago, by the way,
Speaker 4: But anyway, you're talking about a place that's right in
Speaker 4: the center of our community. Do you have downtown over
Speaker 4: to rhyme that they're working so hard to make a
Speaker 4: wonderful place, and yeah, I drive past there and I'm like,
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, I can't even imagine. And to get
Speaker 4: called and deal with a complaint in the middle of
Speaker 4: that stuff. Sometimes on the sidewalk, Willie, there's thirty forty,
Speaker 4: fifty to sixty people all hanging out and and and
Speaker 4: and my assumption is up there they're up to no good.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying they're all felons. A lot of them
Speaker 4: are just alcoholics and stuff, all hanging out there. But
Speaker 4: how is that going to help that that neighborhood progress.
Speaker 6: It's not.
Speaker 4: But if you're going to have the police to go
Speaker 4: there and make contact with what are usually small crimes.
Speaker 4: And then sometimes when you're dealing with these soaks, especially
Speaker 4: like you said, one of the homeless type people are
Speaker 4: are mentally ill or whatnot. Next thing you know, you're
Speaker 4: in a confrontation, and one of those confrontations gets ugly,
Speaker 4: not even not even a deadly force. Just imagine a big,
Speaker 4: ugly fight and and and and being filmed. We film everything,
Speaker 4: and there's a camera on our chest, but everybody else
Speaker 4: has got a cell phone getting different angles, and one
Speaker 4: angle doesn't look so good. And makes somebody angry because
Speaker 4: there's you. You strike this homeless, mentally ill person in
Speaker 4: the wrong way, throwing throwing the racial next thing, you know, right,
Speaker 4: I guess you're city. They're worried that if if Penny
Speaker 4: that's his last name, right, if Penny gets off, then
Speaker 4: then then then there's gonna be there's gonna be riots
Speaker 4: over the penny, the penny.
Speaker 3: And there goes Macy's, there goes mate.
Speaker 1: We got to run on, Sergeant Dan love having you on,
Speaker 1: keep being my deep source. But the city knew about
Speaker 1: it and didn't act. They give the seventy to our notice.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden fires are taking place. Gott to run,
Speaker 1: Sergeant Dan Hills. You're a great American, and God bless you,
Speaker 1: and God bless him Amberley Village, thank you, Thank you, Willie,
Speaker 1: God bless America. Let's continue with more. Those are the
Speaker 1: facts and they'll set us all free. On news Radio

Speaker 1: champions are in but now we have UC Claremont women's
Speaker 1: soccer team are the national champions.
Speaker 3: They had to play football.
Speaker 1: Maybe go down there and talk to the head football
Speaker 1: coach at UC you see what they can do. Segment
Speaker 1: introduce these fine great champions.
Speaker 7: Willy, we honor today the defending USCAA Women's Division two
Speaker 7: national champion UC Claremont. They scored four first half goals
Speaker 7: and repeat as national champs in soccer in a five
Speaker 7: nothing went over Christendom out of Virginia a couple of
Speaker 7: saturdays ago and Kmar Jackson as the head coach.
Speaker 3: They went thirteen one and three.
Speaker 1: Coach explained the last game it was tough. Your box
Speaker 1: are up against the wall.
Speaker 3: You were down.
Speaker 1: You had several players with ACL injuries, three or fourhead concussions.
Speaker 3: They came off bus accidents.
Speaker 1: None of them could walk, but you persevered, passed all
Speaker 1: the odds, checked ass, like mister ass coach, what happened
Speaker 1: in the last big game?
Speaker 8: If anything, the girls has executed the game plan to perfection.
Speaker 8: You know, we had a plan going into the game
Speaker 8: to get an early goal.
Speaker 3: What was the planing, coach, what was the plan going in?
Speaker 3: Early goal?
Speaker 8: Get the early goal in the first chance we get
Speaker 8: in the first five minutes, take advantage of it.
Speaker 6: It's like a boxing match. We want to hit them
Speaker 6: in the.
Speaker 3: Stomach real early, like Mike Tyson.
Speaker 6: Like Mike Dyson. Yeah, yep, our Jake Paul.
Speaker 1: Jake Paul. I guess there was a deal there. They
Speaker 1: weren't in a box, right, Jake Paul. Now I think
Speaker 1: Mike Tyson agreed not to hit him in the ribs
Speaker 1: and Jake Paul agreed not to hit him in the head.
Speaker 3: What a boxing match?
Speaker 1: Please continue? The first play? Was there a set play?
Speaker 1: Was it bulldog three? Was it left right center? What
Speaker 1: was the first play?
Speaker 8: No, it was just a great build up play, great
Speaker 8: ball movement from the girls. We got the ball down
Speaker 8: the line, got a cross inside the box, and we
Speaker 8: a really good finish from one of our leading players,
Speaker 8: Ree Jabino, with a nice finish.
Speaker 3: Which foot did she use? If any right.
Speaker 8: Footed, right footed placed it in the back of the net,
Speaker 8: and from there on we kind of knew, you know,
Speaker 8: once we got that first goal, their heads were going
Speaker 8: to drop, and we kind of pushed really hard for
Speaker 8: that second goal. Like you'd always say, the first five minutes,
Speaker 8: in the next five minutes, so we try to get
Speaker 8: that second goal within the next five minutes, and we
Speaker 8: were able to execute that as well, with Kaylee Rolls
Speaker 8: crossing a nice ball in a shears to finish, and
Speaker 8: so we were up to zero and I think Molly
Speaker 8: and who's here.
Speaker 3: With us, Richmond Hume of the Lions.
Speaker 8: Yep Uh mac Nick and former CU player as well.
Speaker 8: She had the third goal with an assist from Reese
Speaker 8: who scored the first goal. Took a beautiful ball, gibbled
Speaker 8: around defender and then placed it back post.
Speaker 6: So from there on we were pretty much in cruise.
Speaker 1: Control, defense of mode, like the Bengals ought to be
Speaker 1: Monday night and you were still winning.
Speaker 8: Were we were still on offensive mode. It was kind
Speaker 8: of like we we had a we had a saying
Speaker 8: that we we kind of used is, you know, we
Speaker 8: got to keep keep our foot on their throats.
Speaker 6: Doun't let up.
Speaker 3: How about a motto kick their ass? Well, kick the coach.
Speaker 3: Did you play soccer? It looked like a soccer guy yourself.
Speaker 6: There, Yes, I did so.
Speaker 8: I played at mom Vernon Nazarene University's an ai a
Speaker 8: school with severe.
Speaker 1: Now introduce your players. Hey look young and aggressive and mean.
Speaker 1: Introduce your players there.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I have Jordan and Guice with me.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 6: She's two times national champ with us.
Speaker 8: She was actually one of my midfielders last year and
Speaker 8: we had a situation with our goalkeeper and she ended
Speaker 8: up stepping up as one of our captains and saying, hey,
Speaker 8: you know, I'll jump.
Speaker 1: And goal Choose me, coach, choose me. I'll be in
Speaker 1: a midfielder. Then I'll switch all of a sudden be
Speaker 1: the goalie.
Speaker 6: I didn't think she said choose me.
Speaker 1: I think she said what was like when you change positions?
Speaker 1: Like the seg man used to be a great catcher
Speaker 1: every now and then he becomes a first baseman. So
Speaker 1: when the coach came to you and said I want
Speaker 1: you to play goalie, what did you say, if anything?
Speaker 9: Jordan, I was a little bit scared at first, because
Speaker 9: I've never really played goalie in my life before I watched.
Speaker 9: I popped in a few games here and there, but
Speaker 9: it's definitely intimidating having to play full time, especially knowing
Speaker 9: that we were going to have a tougher schedule.
Speaker 3: This year National champions But.
Speaker 9: Bret our assistant coach, played goalie, so he did a
Speaker 9: really good job training me throughout the season.
Speaker 1: So Jordan, you were quick, and you were me and
Speaker 1: you were nasty. And when the ball was coming, you
Speaker 1: looked at it closely. You said, so I hit it
Speaker 1: with my arms, my legs, my back, my shoulder, my head.
Speaker 3: What do I hit it with? Was that the decision
Speaker 3: making you had?
Speaker 9: I really just wanted to stop it from the wall,
Speaker 9: just whatever it could do to stop it.
Speaker 1: And coach introduced your next player from New Richmond, the
Speaker 1: home of the Lions in the front street cafe.
Speaker 6: So Molly, and this was the USCA Player of the Year.
Speaker 8: Get the mic in front of her as the player
Speaker 8: of the year, as an agent, the player off the tournament.
Speaker 8: So uh, you know, Molly transferred to US from I
Speaker 8: believe Autobid and immediately Stepp didn't have a significant impact
Speaker 8: on the team.
Speaker 6: You know, she was one of the players. You know
Speaker 6: you joked about it earlier.
Speaker 8: But she was also one of those players that were
Speaker 8: She was struggling with a hamstring injury, going.
Speaker 3: Into the final hurt and beating bloody.
Speaker 6: Yeah, she was beating up a little bit stitches.
Speaker 8: But one of the things that I that I loved
Speaker 8: about these girls were the fact that you know, they
Speaker 8: were all in it for each other, and you know
Speaker 8: they were like, listen, this is the last game, last game.
Speaker 6: I will tear every most of them my body. She did.
Speaker 3: She had no muscles left, all of the plumbs were broken.
Speaker 3: She's limping.
Speaker 6: Molly.
Speaker 3: You went to high school and New Richmond, Is that correct?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: I actually went to Nick mcnick, home of the Rockets.
Speaker 1: Did you know Jerry Derger at mcnick high School?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 1: I never heard of that guy. Now talk about the
Speaker 1: last game. Did you score a goal in the last game?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I did.
Speaker 1: So explain how it happened. The people want to know.
Speaker 1: I want to know how it happened.
Speaker 5: There was a ball that came across and it kind
Speaker 5: of just got all jumbled up, and then the ball
Speaker 5: came out and reached one of our center mids. She
Speaker 5: won the ball, and Matt Reese and I knew that
Speaker 5: as soon as Reese got the ball, she's gonna look up,
Speaker 5: She's gonna know Yes, is one of our stronger players.
Speaker 6: She's great foot skills.
Speaker 3: Every feet.
Speaker 5: Yeah. And as soon as I saw her get the ball,
Speaker 5: I just started taking off a little bit. Watched my
Speaker 5: line because they laid a higher line against us, and
Speaker 5: I just tied my run in.
Speaker 6: Reese played it.
Speaker 5: Perfectly, and the goalie started to come out a little bit,
Speaker 5: so I figured I had to throw her off so
Speaker 5: I just could touch hide and then I put it
Speaker 5: in the bottom left corner.
Speaker 3: Looks like you've done that before, correct?
Speaker 6: Maybe once or twice.
Speaker 1: Did you ever play Deer Park High School? Because I

Speaker 7: so he doesn't go and start harpooning people in the seats.
Speaker 7: And BiVO, he could have it, He could have a
Speaker 7: human shish Kebob on either horn. Well, Bevo gets a
Speaker 7: case of the goo go. Eight guys aren't holding back
Speaker 7: Bevo Bingo. But the dog named.
Speaker 1: Uga is a little bulldog for Georgia. Uga and Bevo

Speaker 1: So BiVO, can I go from Austin, Texas to Atlanta?
Speaker 1: How would he get there? Had he got on a

Speaker 1: with those horns. I guess, I guess there's collapsible and
Speaker 1: he you know, back to his head and he goes
Speaker 1: in and sits down.
Speaker 6: I think he has a couple of cold ones.
Speaker 1: What about that Russian woman who flies from New York

Speaker 3: Are you ready for no pressure?
Speaker 6: Coach? Pressure? Pressure?
Speaker 8: Well, I mean it's it's a game at a time.
Speaker 8: You know, I think we have a really good core
Speaker 8: group of girls coming back. You know, we've already had
Speaker 8: two girls that we've made offers to that have accepted,
Speaker 8: Lanny Murphy and Aubrey Slack.
Speaker 3: What about any girls from deer Park High School?
Speaker 6: None from deer Park High School? One is from Norwood
Speaker 6: though she'schools.

Speaker 3: on their team?
Speaker 6: Do they?
Speaker 1: Paul Range's got zero and twenty two in football? They're
Speaker 1: not very good anymore. I understand what I'm saying. The
Speaker 1: stink in fact that man right now. So next year
Speaker 1: looks pretty good, coach.
Speaker 8: It looks it looks promising. But again, you know how
Speaker 8: it goes. You could start off the season on paper
Speaker 8: we look really really good and then you know, you
Speaker 8: go into the game and you have a number of
Speaker 8: injuries to key players and it significantly changes every outlook
Speaker 8: on things. So but again, this group has overcome a lot,
Speaker 8: and I think the new players we have coming in,
Speaker 8: the returning players that we have.
Speaker 3: You'll be in a hog heaven.
Speaker 6: I think we should be should be competing again for
Speaker 6: a national coach.

Speaker 3: And he's looking for a batwoman is what he's looking for.
Speaker 3: Don't marry a bat?
Speaker 1: On News Radio seven hundred, Bill Cunningham, the Great American
Speaker 1: about a year or two a hand on a bunch
Speaker 1: of lawyers suing all kinds of companies because the p
Speaker 1: f A s and what it was doing not just
Speaker 1: to the environment, but mainly to the human body. And
Speaker 1: now the whole issue is metastasized to an extent to
Speaker 1: the farming community. And tomorrow night, about nine o'clock on
Speaker 1: News Nation, Natasha and Zuvez is doing a report on
Speaker 1: what is occurring to farmers, whether it's Texas or Maine,
Speaker 1: and what's happening in the environment. She's an Emmy Award
Speaker 1: winning journalist and more. And Natasha Zuvez welcome, I think
Speaker 1: for the first time to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Natasha,
Speaker 1: first of all, can you tell the American people what
Speaker 1: are pfas's and how's that relatable to farmers in Maine
Speaker 1: and in Texas. Yeah.
Speaker 10: Bill, great to be with you. Thank you, And you know,
Speaker 10: this is one of the biggest stories that we're simply
Speaker 10: not talking about enough. And for everyone listening right now,
Speaker 10: there's a ninety seven percent chance this chemical is already
Speaker 10: in their blood and they likely have no idea. And
Speaker 10: to your point, farmers across the country are waking up
Speaker 10: and realizing they're being destroyed by this and it's impacting
Speaker 10: the food all of us eat. It is in our
Speaker 10: drinking water. At least forty five percent of our drinking
Speaker 10: water impacted by this and in our body. So let
Speaker 10: me explain as you alluded to, you know, we are
Speaker 10: all starting to hear more and more about PFASs or
Speaker 10: forever chemicals as they're called colloquially. They're linked with cancer
Speaker 10: and serious health issues like liver damage, thyroid issues, fertility issues.
Speaker 10: The list goes on. And these forever chemicals are all
Speaker 10: around us. They are used basically to make things stain
Speaker 10: and water resistance. So they're in our pizza boxes, they're
Speaker 10: in takeout boxes, coffee cups, dental floss, make up carpets, couches,
Speaker 10: you know, the Scotch guard that we've sprayed on things,
Speaker 10: are nonstick pans that you cook in, the teflon, you
Speaker 10: name it. But you know, as you said at News Nation,
Speaker 10: we're exposing one way forebber chemicals are getting into our
Speaker 10: food supply. And I'm really happy to be speaking to
Speaker 10: you more about this today.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about you said off the air that there
Speaker 1: are cows, there's cattle literally dropping dead in the fields.
Speaker 1: And one thing I try not to be as an alarmist,
Speaker 1: because I did this a year or two ago, and
Speaker 1: I thought, these pea fast chemicals are everywhere.
Speaker 3: I can't avoid them.
Speaker 1: When you order a pizza, open up a big mac,
Speaker 1: bottled water, non bottled water, whatever it is, it's in
Speaker 1: our bodies. Ninety seven percent of us have them. What's
Speaker 1: happening at manifestations in states like Texas and Maine?
Speaker 10: Yeah, so you know, I have to tell you about
Speaker 10: one man who will stay on my heart forever, and
Speaker 10: that is fred Stone. He's a dairy farmer in Maine.
Speaker 10: This is his grandfather's dairy farm. It's been in his
Speaker 10: family one hundred and fourteen years. And he was totally
Speaker 10: destroyed by this. You know, he loves his cows so much, Bill,
Speaker 10: he knows their personalities. He named them things like Moonbeam
Speaker 10: and storm Chaser. And we went and met him there
Speaker 10: on the ground. We watched him dumping thousands of gallons
Speaker 10: of tainted milk down the drain. He had to shoot
Speaker 10: and kill eighty percent of his beloved cows and went
Speaker 10: one point five million dollars in debt trying to save
Speaker 10: his farm. And I asked him, Bill, what keeps him
Speaker 10: up at night? And he says, his father and grandfather
Speaker 10: have already passed on, but he knows he'll see them
Speaker 10: one day, and he doesn't know what to tell them
Speaker 10: about what's happened to the farm they entrusted him with.
Speaker 10: That's what keeps him up at night. He was told
Speaker 10: he was an isolated case. This is just the tip
Speaker 10: of the iceberg. And I can explain to you exactly
Speaker 10: how these forever chemicals are getting shot through in this
Speaker 10: really valuable prime American farmland.
Speaker 1: Well, let's do it, because none of us understand the
Speaker 1: depth of the problem. I can imagine in different nations,
Speaker 1: is it worse or better and less developed country for example?
Speaker 10: You know, it's hard to know. But the thing is,
Speaker 10: it's everywhere now. It is in rainwater, even falling in
Speaker 10: parts of Earth that are completely uninhabited in humans have
Speaker 10: never been to. It's in polar bears. It is so
Speaker 10: infiltrated and ubiquitous in our world. While these chemical companies
Speaker 10: made billions of dollars, and we expose the paper trail
Speaker 10: in this hour long special showing what the chemical companies knew,
Speaker 10: did not tell us and our federal agencies. Aaron Brockovich,
Speaker 10: the one made famous by that Julia Roberts Oscar winning
Speaker 10: movie you know, is really taking on this fight and
Speaker 10: is saying EPA, other federal agencies, where have you been.
Speaker 10: You know, EPA has known about this since nineteen ninety eight,
Speaker 10: and they'll like, let's really get into this because for
Speaker 10: decades now, farmers in all fifty states here in the
Speaker 10: US we're told that they were doing their civic duty
Speaker 10: by spreading a fertilizer called fludge. It is treated human sewage.
Speaker 10: They're putting it on their fields and they were told
Speaker 10: it's their civic duty so that this biosolid waste wouldn't
Speaker 10: go to landfills, because this stuff is bad to have
Speaker 10: in landfill. Who thought it would be a great idea
Speaker 10: to put it on our most precious farm land. But
Speaker 10: the thing, though, is the EPA has never and still
Speaker 10: does not require this fluodge to be tested for forever chemicals,
Speaker 10: and so farmer after farmer now is realizing their land
Speaker 10: is terribly contaminated with this human made chemical that is
Speaker 10: linked with cancer. It will never break down naturally. Their
Speaker 10: own blood is testing high in forever chemicals, and of
Speaker 10: course that comes with the spector in the fear of
Speaker 10: all the health issues that comes with that, and then
Speaker 10: their milks their meat. Their livelihood is ruined. There is
Speaker 10: no safety net virtually for them, and Bill, you and
Speaker 10: I are paying the price. All of us are being
Speaker 10: impacted by the food that we eat, the milk we drink,
Speaker 10: the meat we consume, even if it's organic, it doesn't
Speaker 10: matter if this land has ever been sludged with this
Speaker 10: kind of fertilizer.
Speaker 1: So Natasha, going back in time, here we are in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, on the eve of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: When did it begin? Did it begin in the fifties
Speaker 1: and sixties? Did it exists before that? It give us
Speaker 1: some timeframe.
Speaker 10: Yeah, So, p FAS and Forever chemicals actually came out
Speaker 10: of World War Two, the Manhattan Project, in nuclear war
Speaker 10: you know, nuclear testing. Three M bought the patent out
Speaker 10: of that because they realized they did such a good
Speaker 10: job at resisting stains and resisting water and oil. So
Speaker 10: it's really started coming onto the market after that three
Speaker 10: M with their Scotch Guard DuPont with their Teflon pans.
Speaker 10: And then it's really in the nineteen seventies in Earnest
Speaker 10: that they get the hey, we have this treated human sewage. Yeah,
Speaker 10: it's contaminated with chemicals. But it would be a really
Speaker 10: good idea, it's so nutrient rich, instead of putting that
Speaker 10: in a landfill and having to deal with it there,
Speaker 10: to give it to our farmers for a really cheap
Speaker 10: price and tell them that they're doing their civic duty
Speaker 10: to fertilize their land with it. So it really started
Speaker 10: in the seventies, and now you're seeing farms, whether they
Speaker 10: were sledged once, four times, or in the case of Freadstone,
Speaker 10: over and over again year after year, that are coming
Speaker 10: back terribly contaminated. Their animals are sick and dying, and
Speaker 10: the farmers are getting sick themselves.
Speaker 1: Why has this not received more publicity? Because I've done
Speaker 1: this now twice in the last several years, and I
Speaker 1: do not see a whole bunch of media attention to
Speaker 1: Pfas's why is that?
Speaker 11: You know?
Speaker 10: I have to say, when I found out about this
Speaker 10: two years ago, Bill, I have the exact same reaction,
Speaker 10: and I know that you know what that feeling is,
Speaker 10: like that fire in your belly when you think, how
Speaker 10: are we not talking about this every single day? This
Speaker 10: matters so much? And what Aaron Brockovich says in this
Speaker 10: hour long special is she believes this is the shell
Speaker 10: game that for money, for greed, for lobbying reasons, these
Speaker 10: things get split under the rug. There are people making
Speaker 10: billions of dollars and have been for decades now based
Speaker 10: off of these products. And there's a revolving door that
Speaker 10: goes in and out of our federal agencies disappointingly sometimes
Speaker 10: as well. So you know, we went to the EPA,
Speaker 10: I went to DC and I asked them why they're
Speaker 10: not protecting us more from this? If they know that
Speaker 10: sledge might be tainted with rubber chemicals, why not stop
Speaker 10: it now? Because built forty eight states are still doing
Speaker 10: this as we speak. When you know better, you do better. EPA.
Speaker 10: You've known since nineteen ninety eight. So you'll hear their
Speaker 10: answer there in the special. And I also get my
Speaker 10: own blood tested on air because of you know, ninety
Speaker 10: seven percent of us bill you likely probably have it.
Speaker 6: In your blood as well.
Speaker 1: And the consequences assuming I'm one of the ninety seven
Speaker 1: percent that have this in my blood, what are the
Speaker 1: consequences they have?
Speaker 10: The sebber chemicals on are linked with a whole host
Speaker 10: of health issues, including cancer, damage to the liver, damage
Speaker 10: to thyroid, fertility. The list really goes on immune system.
Speaker 10: There's almost no part of the body that it does
Speaker 10: not touch.
Speaker 1: If I drink a lot of bottled water, I know
Speaker 1: my wife loves bottled water. She thinks the water out
Speaker 1: of the faucet is bad. I tell her what the
Speaker 1: hell is, let's do it.
Speaker 10: Isn't that a complicated yes or no?
Speaker 9: Right?
Speaker 10: I like to tap water needs help for so many reasons.
Speaker 10: For lead reason, and we know the USGS is now
Speaker 10: saying at least forty five percent of our drinking water,
Speaker 10: of our tap water has pfat in it. I can
Speaker 10: tell you what some people believe is a good idea.
Speaker 10: Some environmental groups there are under the SINC filters you
Speaker 10: can buy where you give them your zip code and
Speaker 10: they specifically give you a filter that is designed based
Speaker 10: on your municipal water report. So if it's high and levet,
Speaker 10: if it's hied rubber chemicals, it filters it out under
Speaker 10: your sink. It's just, I mean, a plain sucks bill
Speaker 10: that it falls to us, the consumer, to come up
Speaker 10: with hundreds of dollars to install a filter under our sinks.
Speaker 10: I can tell you the EPA when I ask them
Speaker 10: about you know, why isn't it safer for us to
Speaker 10: open the tap and drink our water. Essentially, I was told, well,
Speaker 10: you know, it's a partnership and you can call your
Speaker 10: municipal water district and ask them. But Bill, you know
Speaker 10: so many viewers ripping their hair out and saying, why
Speaker 10: is it my responsibility to call who has the time
Speaker 10: to call my own water district and say, hey, is
Speaker 10: it safe for me to drink the tab water? This
Speaker 10: is where we are right now, and to your point,
Speaker 10: it's not getting enough coverage. This is why we're doing
Speaker 10: an hour long special on Saturday night. And I so
Speaker 10: appreciate you helping us make a whole lot of noise
Speaker 10: about it because it impacts all of us. It's incredibly important,
Speaker 10: and there are a lot of people who don't want
Speaker 10: the story to be told.
Speaker 1: Two other quick questions, what foods are high in pv
Speaker 1: s's and what foods are low?
Speaker 3: Can you tell the American people.
Speaker 10: That, yeah, so foods prepared in restaurants are going to
Speaker 10: have higher levels of p FAST because of the nonstick
Speaker 10: pans that they use and the containers they put it in.
Speaker 10: Any foods that are increased resistant packaging is going to
Speaker 10: be high as well. You know, I would encourage we
Speaker 10: do go through this in this special there are certain
Speaker 10: types of crops that wake up p fasts more efficiently
Speaker 10: from the soil. We go through the whole list, but
Speaker 10: you know, eating at home and eating organic is still
Speaker 10: the best we can do. And more and more buying
Speaker 10: from farms, buying from farmers who are literally now putting
Speaker 10: stickers on their products saying p fast tested, this is
Speaker 10: where we're headed built, this is what that looks like.
Speaker 1: Natasha Zoovez, Are there bottled waters better than others?
Speaker 10: Probably? But honestly, I would say people unfortunately have to
Speaker 10: do their own research because with bottled water, it's not
Speaker 10: just the p f ask you're looking at, right, it's
Speaker 10: the microplastics that are in it as well, So still
Speaker 10: probably better. Right, You can't win, Bill, But the point
Speaker 10: is we all are just trying to do our best,
Speaker 10: and we look to our federal agencies to protect us
Speaker 10: when they can, as for companies to at least be
Speaker 10: a little bit honest and not to put profit in
Speaker 10: front of people. So this is, you know, Bill, the
Speaker 10: most important storytelling that I've had the privilege of doing
Speaker 10: so far in my career.
Speaker 1: You've won money, you've won money, Emmies. You might get
Speaker 1: another one on this one. Lastly, about it about a
Speaker 1: minute remaining. Is it soluble? If the industries, if the lawyers,
Speaker 1: if the journalists like you get on it. American people
Speaker 1: are educated. Is the problem a payfast? Is it soluble?
Speaker 10: It's a good question. This is a Aaron Brokovich says,
Speaker 10: this is a tidal wave that's coming. The storm is
Speaker 10: already here, and so what we need to do is
Speaker 10: support our farmers who one by one are going to
Speaker 10: be finding out that their farms are destroyed because there
Speaker 10: is no safety net for them right now. And fred
Speaker 10: Stone told me he understands why other farmers are not
Speaker 10: clamoring to test their land for forever chemicals, right. He says,
Speaker 10: it's like giving someone a gun and asking them to
Speaker 10: shoot you, putting the bullets right in the chamber and
Speaker 10: asking them to shoot you. We need to figure out
Speaker 10: a way to catch these farmers when they find out,
Speaker 10: enable them to test so that they do want to
Speaker 10: find out if the food they're selling us and their
Speaker 10: livelihood is shot through with these rubber chemicals. And then secondly,
Speaker 10: it's incumbent upon us to find out ways in our
Speaker 10: own lives, switch out the dental flows to one that's
Speaker 10: pee fast free, try to avoid these food packagings, et cetera.
Speaker 10: And finally, Bill, I'll say, this is really coming down
Speaker 10: to the states. It really really is. So far both
Speaker 10: main and now Connecticut and in the matter of just
Speaker 10: the last few weeks have banned sludging in their states.
Speaker 10: It's incredibly brave. It took bipartisan support. It is an
Speaker 10: a political issue, and so people need whatever state you're in,
Speaker 10: if it's Illinois, if it's Texas, if it's California, you
Speaker 10: need to call your representative and demand that sledging is
Speaker 10: banned in your state. That's where it's going to come
Speaker 10: down to, because while we deal with this huge issue,
Speaker 10: the last thing we want is for more acres twenty
Speaker 10: million cropland acres so far, for more acres to be
Speaker 10: completely destroyed by this forever chemical.
Speaker 1: Natasha Zuves, thank you very much, nine o'clock Eastern Time,
Speaker 1: News Nation Tomorrow Night's Saturday.
Speaker 3: Well, it's good.
Speaker 1: This is one of the greatest interviews I've done because
Speaker 1: it informs people what they can do small ways to
Speaker 1: improve their family's health and their own health. And Natasha
Speaker 1: once again thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.
Speaker 1: And Natasha, you're a great American. Thank you very much.
Speaker 10: It means it means the logs of me.
Speaker 6: Bill, thank you, God bless you.
Speaker 3: Let's continue with more.
Speaker 6: Bye, goodbye.
Speaker 3: It's about a year or two ago.
Speaker 1: There was a big law firm in Cincinnati here that
Speaker 1: was handling multi billion dollar lawsuits against certain chemical companies.
Speaker 1: And when I saw this pop up in an email
Speaker 1: sent to me, I thought you should be informed. P
Speaker 1: VAS google it. I have it up right now. It
Speaker 1: tells you how it affects humans. It tells you the
Speaker 1: products involved. It tells you what foods are high with
Speaker 1: foods are low, and it tells you about bottled water.
Speaker 1: It tells you about contacting your own water company that
Speaker 1: and ask them what are they doing, and then maybe
Speaker 1: get the filters in your home to stop it. So
Speaker 1: let's continue with more. Bill Cunningham on News Radio seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW. Sorry, Billy Cunningham, the great American. And I
Speaker 1: want to acknowledge one great American high school graduate at
Speaker 1: Fairborn High School. I love Fairborne High School. Tech Sergeant
Speaker 1: Lauren Beller. He's been with the United States Air Force
Speaker 1: for about twenty years. Tech Sergeant Beller has given his
Speaker 1: life and his blood's work and his intellect to the
Speaker 1: salvation this great country. He's stationed in Grand Forks Air
Speaker 1: Force Base in North Dakota. He's got twenty years. He's
Speaker 1: only thirty nine or forty years old, but he has
Speaker 1: spent his life on behalf of those of us who
Speaker 1: take for granted the sacrifice of so many. So Tech
Speaker 1: Sergeant Lauren Beller, consider yourself to be the Bill Cunningham
Speaker 1: Citizen of the day. The day, of course, is December
Speaker 1: the sixth, twenty twenty four. Thank you for twenty years
Speaker 1: of service. And let's face it, the attitudes and the beliefs,
Speaker 1: and the values and the morals of Fairborne High School
Speaker 1: and those related it made it all possible for Tech
Speaker 1: Sergeant Lauren Beller to do what he's doing. And he's
Speaker 1: The retirement party's taking place beginning in about two minutes,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure they're listening in Grand Forks AFB and
Speaker 1: North Dakota. And once again, Sergeant Beller, congratulations on a
Speaker 1: life well lived. Now you've got the second half year
Speaker 1: life to go, and that's the way it out to be.
Speaker 1: There's no better service. If you're a young American at a
Speaker 1: high school in college and can't find work appropriate to
Speaker 1: your circumstances, consider volunteering for the Army of the Navy,
Speaker 1: the Air Force, the Marines, the Merchant Marines, whatever it
Speaker 1: might be, the Coastguard, and then defend the nation. That's
Speaker 1: exactly what JD. Vance did and it's what Lauren Beller did.
Speaker 1: Both these men said, you know what, I need a
Speaker 1: gi bill, I'm not happy with my circumstances. Let's go
Speaker 1: and volunteer my time. And whether it's JD. Vance or
Speaker 1: Lauren Beller, each said, choose me. I'll go, I'll volunteer,
Speaker 1: I'll go. It's an all volunteer force. So congratulations to
Speaker 1: Lauren Beller, but also the JD. Vance for living a
Speaker 1: good life. As we continue two thirty homme of your Bengals,
Speaker 1: News Radio seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati.
Speaker 6: You talk about you have no sympathy for Notre Dame.
Speaker 6: Why are they even relevant? Can somebody answer that question
Speaker 6: for me.
Speaker 11: Notre Dame Fighting Irish and college football has not won
Speaker 11: a championship since nineteen eighty eight when they won in
Speaker 11: the Fiesta Ball.
Speaker 6: I think it was against West Virginia. They's a gent man.
Speaker 6: If my math is correct, that's thirty.
Speaker 11: Six years without a national championship. I know they went
Speaker 11: to a national championship game. I remember when Brian Kelly
Speaker 11: was coaching them and he took them to the national
Speaker 11: championship game against Alabama.
Speaker 6: What happened in that game?
Speaker 3: For what happened in that game?
Speaker 11: They got bump worth so badly. We don't they got annihilated. Okay,
Speaker 11: I mean Brian Kelly was probably planning this exit from
Speaker 11: Notre Dame at that moment. Okay, this is an annihilation
Speaker 11: that took place. They have not won a national championship
Speaker 11: game since nineteen They have not won national titles in
Speaker 11: nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 1: halftime of a UC basketball game.
Speaker 3: How about that one? I think they gotta do that.
Speaker 1: Get coach Jackson down there with the girls, I mean,
Speaker 1: Molly and Jordan. Get him down there. School's just a
Speaker 1: part of Clifton. Is anything else. Absolutely, Claremont County is
Speaker 1: a great county and UC is a good part of it.
Speaker 1: They win a national title on women's soccer back back
Speaker 1: to back, mister, and I think John Cunningham, my cousin
Speaker 1: or nephew. Yeah, should you get him down at halftime
Speaker 1: of a UC men's game and get them on or
Speaker 1: do you agree?
Speaker 6: Yes? Go ahead?
Speaker 3: Hockey tonight?
Speaker 1: EHL Action has the Cyclones on the road up against
Speaker 1: Fort Wayne Commets.
Speaker 3: Now there you go. Now, I got some other issues.
Speaker 1: Juan Soto allegedly today is going to pick the team.
Speaker 1: He will allow it to pay him six hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty million dollars. He has multiple offers of over six
Speaker 1: hundred million to play baseball for the Yankees, the Red Sox,
Speaker 1: the Mets, or the Dodgers, or maybe the Reds is
Speaker 1: a late entry. He's going to make more each year
Speaker 1: than the entire roster of the Cincinnati Reds make in
Speaker 1: one year. The Reds roster that in a week or
Speaker 1: a day, sixty million or more per year. Man for
Speaker 1: a minimum of twelve years, which my simple deal, Park
Speaker 1: Matt tells me might be seven hundred million.
Speaker 7: I saw the other day Willie that in deferred money,
Speaker 7: the Los Angeles Dodgers have like over well over a
Speaker 7: billion dollars in deferred money. Whur's that down the road
Speaker 7: with with all the players that they have?
Speaker 3: What's that down the road? How's that possible to be?
Speaker 1: Showy Otana de Otani day when he, like Bobby Bonia,
Speaker 1: he's still getting paid. I had on Randy freaking a
Speaker 1: few days ago. The lawyer wrote the book in nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty one about the breakup of the big red machine, right,
Speaker 1: and you know what the big issue there was in
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty one the big market teams had advantages over
Speaker 1: the small market teams.
Speaker 3: That hasn't changed as forty three years ago.
Speaker 1: And it said, you know what, it's not fair for
Speaker 1: the Yankees, the Mets, the.
Speaker 3: Dodgers, and they have that kind of money.
Speaker 1: So the Reds and the Pirates and the brew crew
Speaker 1: cannot compete. Here we are a correct what forty three
Speaker 1: years later and Juan Soto.
Speaker 3: Nothing has changed.
Speaker 7: They need the deal like the National Football League, but
Speaker 7: they're not going to get it because of the union
Speaker 7: and the green salad of salvation.
Speaker 1: In the NFL, you can be from Pittsburgh, Green Bay,
Speaker 1: or Cincinnati and compete against the Giants, against the Bears,
Speaker 1: right and against the Dallas Cowboy.
Speaker 7: At least they're getting TV money the Reds are having
Speaker 7: major League Baseball. Is Major League Baseball going to pay
Speaker 7: the Reds to do their games? I guess they're not
Speaker 7: going to get the money they got from Bally Sports
Speaker 7: and fan Duel and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Are they got forty million dollars a year from fan Duel?
Speaker 1: That's down the tubes. Forty Now, to the Yankees and
Speaker 1: Mets and Dodgers.
Speaker 3: That's the way they got in their pocket.
Speaker 1: But to the Red Legs, to the Castellinis, they're rich,
Speaker 1: but they're not that rich. Correct to waste forty million
Speaker 1: right down the tubers? Your comments on that one. Nothing
Speaker 1: has changed forty three years later.
Speaker 6: Nothing.
Speaker 1: If somebody had said in nineteen eighty one that one
Speaker 1: player is going to make seven hundred million dollars.
Speaker 3: You would have been deported.
Speaker 6: What?
Speaker 7: And then the Commissioner's got this stupid idea of a
Speaker 7: golden at bat.
Speaker 3: I mean, what are we do? You're making Melwyn.
Speaker 1: Marty Brenham and saying about a golden at bat beat
Speaker 1: beat the beat beat commissioner Manfred He said, the Marty
Speaker 1: is in London. Really, I'm sort of international. Could he
Speaker 1: be maybe negotiating a franchise there? Maybe the NFL and Lounderer.
Speaker 1: Is there going to be a coup where it's King
Speaker 1: Marty and Queen Amanda. Might be a coup in South Korea?
Speaker 1: But I don't know about London. But Marty's traveling the
Speaker 1: world right now. He just got off a boat. Imagine
Speaker 1: having Dela Cruz bat back to back against some game
Speaker 1: that or maybe get Juan Soto back.
Speaker 3: Your forty five games out of first place. They show
Speaker 3: you a tany back to back.
Speaker 6: Thank you?
Speaker 3: Just let him bat all day long.
Speaker 1: Well, I think baseball's in trouble. Sake, man, another gimmick
Speaker 1: and have made the shape count is fine? The pit,
Speaker 1: the clock is okay. How about now about three ounce?
Speaker 1: Got to phase three? Oh they're gonna be five by
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six. I heard five five ounce, five balls
Speaker 1: everything else and four strikes. They're just gonna throw throw
Speaker 1: arms out the window. Do you have hope? Do you
Speaker 1: have any hope at all? For what do you have hope?
Speaker 1: And what do you have hope?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 1: For the Reds and the Bengals, do you have hope always?
Speaker 1: How about Ohio State? The Buck guys, Ryan Day ninety
Speaker 1: seven and one against the Big ten except Michigan one
Speaker 1: and four.
Speaker 3: Tom the weed Man is happy.
Speaker 7: Heat, yeah, yeah, and Ryan Day's not having good days.
Speaker 7: Coach sat is not a good day, not good as
Speaker 7: Mark Stoops.
Speaker 3: Not good and Big Blue.
Speaker 1: So you take the Buck guy all games ninety seven
Speaker 1: and one, that's ninety eight. He's ninety eight and five
Speaker 1: against the Big ten overall ninety eight and five, and.
Speaker 7: That's not good enough. And in ann Arbor their love
Speaker 7: and life, you know, they just gave their a d

Speaker 1: one who's anti democratic, not supporting the justice system. So
Speaker 1: Joe Biden could say, look, I'm the guy that won't
Speaker 1: even pardon my own son. But once he's not in office,
Speaker 1: guess what he's doing. What we knew he was going
Speaker 1: to do, but politically he took advantage of the other

Speaker 1: looks into it and says, we want to follow these charges.
Speaker 1: They then say to the Department of Justice, Hey, we
Speaker 1: want subpoena power against the Bidens. You know what they said,
Speaker 1: bingo right there, But after all, don't be a monger
