Speaker 1: Five oh five and thinking about KRC Detalk station Happy Fridays,
Speaker 1: say a Va, you know it's Friday. I thanks you
Speaker 1: for the woohoo. Joe Struker Brian Thomas right here, glad
Speaker 1: to be especially on a Friday. It's my favorite time
Speaker 1: of week and there's no offense to my listening audience.
Speaker 1: I get to exhale after the night, after the mic
Speaker 1: goes off at nine o'clock and I don't have to
Speaker 1: think about world disorder and problems and insanity until Sunday
Speaker 1: morning when I wake up and I turned the laptop
Speaker 1: on and I start diving into the news again. So
Speaker 1: only get a brief respite from it, but I certainly
Speaker 1: enjoy it. And I can't thank you enough for tuning
Speaker 1: into the fifty five Cassee Morning Show. And I can't
Speaker 1: thank tech Friday's Day have Hatter enough for coming on
Speaker 1: every Friday, which has now been named by Million Podcasts
Speaker 1: one of the best technology podcasts in the United States.
Speaker 1: He had announced with guys say on Facebook, I'm thrilled
Speaker 1: to tech Friday on fifty five. Casey Radio has been
Speaker 1: named a Million Podcasts. That is the name of the
Speaker 1: organization Million Podcasts. Top one hundred cybersecurity podcasts.
Speaker 2: He said.
Speaker 1: We did not apply nor did we pay for the recognition.
Speaker 1: So it's very gratifying that our efforts to provide timely
Speaker 1: and helpful information designed to keep you and your family
Speaker 1: and your organization productive, resilient, and secure are being recognized
Speaker 1: by the industry. It's very cool to make to see
Speaker 1: the list with some of my favorite podcasts like Darknet
Speaker 1: Diaries and others. So he personally thanked me. He thanked
Speaker 1: Joe Strecker Productions for all the eleven years who've been
Speaker 1: doing Tech Friday and interest it. Of course his sponsor
Speaker 1: the program, that's his company, so they're at number thirty
Speaker 1: nine on the list. The full list he posted on
Speaker 1: his Facebook length. So congratulations Dave Hatter. It is a
Speaker 1: distinct pleasure to have you on the program every week,
Speaker 1: and I can't thank you enough for sharing the information.
Speaker 1: It does keep people out of trouble, or at least
Speaker 1: it should if you heed Days Andvice every week. Speaking
Speaker 1: of that, everything you say on your echo is sent
Speaker 1: to Amazon. There's topic number one everything Big Brothers in
Speaker 1: your house. You put it there. Nobody made you go there.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, at least in George Orwell's nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty four. You were forced to have the Big but
Speaker 1: Brother monitoring system in your home. You guys have brought
Speaker 1: it into your own home. Will it mix things easy? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Well fine, yeah. I do not understand people's willingness to
Speaker 1: just do something like that. I never have. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to participate. I refuse to abide. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: bad enough for the device all. Speaking of which teen
Speaker 1: eighty four and in the top three stories that we're
Speaker 1: going to talking about with Dave Ohio porn bill eighty
Speaker 1: four more like nineteen eighty four. That was kind of
Speaker 1: my reaction. Also, it's a stupid bill because all you
Speaker 1: need to do is get a VPN and pretend like
Speaker 1: you're in some other state or country outside the confines
Speaker 1: of Ohio, and you can log in without providing your
Speaker 1: facial ID and your your driver's license everything else they
Speaker 1: want you to submit to watch porn online. You decide
Speaker 1: whether it's appropriate to watch porn online. I do not
Speaker 1: like the idea that children have access to it, but
Speaker 1: welcome to the world in which we live. There are
Speaker 1: protections you can put on your smart devices and your
Speaker 1: home devices to prevent your children from accessing it. That
Speaker 1: should be your responsibility. But this thing is truly or
Speaker 1: well you know, and I'm glad you're at least from
Speaker 1: the topic list. Dave shares my concerns in that regard.
Speaker 1: And finally here's another one, moving from echo listening to
Speaker 1: literally everything you say and sending it to Amazon. Android
Speaker 1: phones are tracking you before you even sign in. Unsettling. Yes,
Speaker 1: seven oh five Steve shoemake Dark World Saga Trillly Trilogy.
Speaker 1: There's three books you need to go over with Steve.
Speaker 1: I guess there are science fiction sort of books, works
Speaker 1: of fiction. Not a huge fan of science fiction, Honestly,
Speaker 1: I don't read much or I haven't read a whole
Speaker 1: lot of science fiction. But Steve will come on the
Speaker 1: program to talk about these three books and why they
Speaker 1: are relevant to our world today. Corey Bowman running from
Speaker 1: mayor Apparently it's going to be a debate next week,
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman back in studio to talk about the Merrill
Speaker 1: race and what he's gonna well hopefully offer to the
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati. By way of contrast to aftab per
Speaker 1: Ball score to the Phones five on three, seven nine
Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight and two three
Speaker 1: talk eight pound five fifty if you got an AT
Speaker 1: and T phone, maybe something you want to talk about,
Speaker 1: like mister Tuba and the Department of Education. But welcome back,
Speaker 1: mister Tuba. How many times you've been playing you play
Speaker 1: Happy Birthday over the last week.
Speaker 3: I guess it's somewhere between six and eight.
Speaker 1: There you go every single day he's got He's just
Speaker 1: a wonderful guy remembering folks birthday and Tuba out the
Speaker 1: Happy Birthday tune. So I appreciate when you do it
Speaker 1: on the morning show. Here, mister two, let's say you
Speaker 1: want to pivot over and talk about the Department of Education.
Speaker 4: I do.
Speaker 3: Indeed, you are aware, and I will inform the audience
Speaker 3: at cards. I am a retired teacher, yes, and I
Speaker 3: am ecstatic that the Department of Education, at the very
Speaker 3: least has been neutered.
Speaker 1: I share your excitement on that. And you know that's
Speaker 1: how we end up with woke ideology being taught in
Speaker 1: schools in lieu of reading, writing, and arithmetic. I don't
Speaker 1: know how the teachers unions can stay can be so
Speaker 1: outraged when the scores the nation's testing scores are on
Speaker 1: the decline. Baltimore School District alone, there's like thirteen schools there.
Speaker 1: Not one single student can read or perform mathematics at
Speaker 1: grade level. I mean, how can you defend that? Again
Speaker 1: defending the inevinsible and Department of Educations. One of the
Speaker 1: reasons that that problem exists.
Speaker 3: Help the union teachers. Different teachers join the union for
Speaker 3: very complicated reasons. And I was a very reluctant member.
Speaker 3: And but the unions are out of control, and they
Speaker 3: exist for themselves, and they I will take they do
Speaker 3: not exist for rank and file teachers. But the fact
Speaker 3: that we now have fewer education bureaucrats is a step
Speaker 3: in the right direction. And I have now I'm now
Speaker 3: able to forgive Ronald Reagan for not doing this because
Speaker 3: it's getting done. And so that's all I have to
Speaker 3: say about it.
Speaker 1: Well, having been there, mister Tuba, did you capitulate to
Speaker 1: pressure when you joined the union? You say you were
Speaker 1: a reluctant member. What what will caused you to go
Speaker 1: ahead and join the unions by your reluctance?
Speaker 3: Well, it's it's just terribly terribly complicated. I'm my colleagues
Speaker 3: did not particularly pressure me. It's you know, they were
Speaker 3: the one they were part of the negotiations with the board.
Speaker 3: And keep in mind this is quite a few years ago, sure,
Speaker 3: and you know you had this sense of obligation too,
Speaker 3: and to be a part of what you know of
Speaker 3: your negotiating.
Speaker 1: Can you articulate a syllable as to what they promised
Speaker 1: to do for you as a teacher by becoming a
Speaker 1: member of the teachers union and paying dues?
Speaker 3: And my brain was simply at the local level, and
Speaker 3: I was forced to accept the state and.
Speaker 1: National forced to accept that sounds like pressure being brought
Speaker 1: to bear on mister too, But honestly it was.
Speaker 3: It was inner pressure. And it's it's prely complicated.
Speaker 1: And you keep saying it's complicated. It seems to me
Speaker 1: a matter of simplicity. What are they offering you that
Speaker 1: is making beneficial for you to join the union or
Speaker 1: are they not offering you something it's beneficial to join
Speaker 1: the union. And you created internal psychological pressure on yourself.
Speaker 1: You say that was not predicated on exterior pressure that
Speaker 1: you got. You made it up in your own head.
Speaker 1: Mister Tuba, I find that little hard to believe.
Speaker 2: Honestly, Well, I was no way.
Speaker 3: I was not a libertarian back in those days.
Speaker 2: Okay, it was a.
Speaker 3: Very very long time ago, and I'm a very different
Speaker 3: person from then.
Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with that, And you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: I've evolved over time politically, and I think I'm in
Speaker 1: a better place now politically than I was when I
Speaker 1: was a radical right winger in high school in college.
Speaker 1: But you know that's a political but still I was
Speaker 1: dominated by logic and reason, and if something was not
Speaker 1: logical or reasonable, if they couldn't come up with a
Speaker 1: single thing they were planning on doing for me as
Speaker 1: a consequence of my union dues, that would have said no,
Speaker 1: I mean, what's the benefit of belonging to an organization
Speaker 1: and paying into it if they're not giving you anything
Speaker 1: or they're not doing something favorable for you. And the
Speaker 1: idea that you be pressured in some way, and I
Speaker 1: think you probably were, in spite of your reluctance to
Speaker 1: admitute today, I mean that, you know, that makes it
Speaker 1: even more wrong from my perspective. That's why I be
Speaker 1: willing to stand and just stand up and out loud
Speaker 1: say hell no, you're not going to pressure me to
Speaker 1: doing something because you're not offering me anything. Just my take.
Speaker 3: Yes, Well, I.
Speaker 1: Wasn't there, mister Tuble. I don't need to unload on
Speaker 1: you this morning. But you brought it up, man, you
Speaker 1: brought it up.
Speaker 5: But anyway, I'm I'm just glad that things are turning
Speaker 5: out the way they are and that the world has
Speaker 5: fewer bureaucrats.
Speaker 1: Fewer bureaucrats, amen, and I think maybe a little bit
Speaker 1: more oversight, and I'll touch upon that topic when we
Speaker 1: come back. You hang in there, my friend. Keep doing
Speaker 1: what you're doing. You put a smile on people's faces
Speaker 1: every single day with the with the two but happy birthdays.
Speaker 1: Appreciate you listening to the show as well. Five fifteen
Speaker 1: fifty five k CD talk station got more to talk about,
Speaker 1: including the need for more oversight in government where the
Speaker 1: dollars go. A couple of illustrations of that right after
Speaker 1: these preports. It's like, indeed, five eighteen gets you out
Speaker 1: of bed language and words from let Me.
Speaker 6: Tell you.
Speaker 7: To kill it?
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 1: You should incorporate some more system of a down into
Speaker 1: our bumper music. There, Joe's Moore get out of bed
Speaker 1: music anyhow. Five one three, seven two three Talk found
Speaker 1: five fifty on AT and T phone we need more
Speaker 1: oversight in federal government in terms of where the money's going.
Speaker 1: There is literally no oversight at least it appears based
Speaker 1: upon the fraud, waste, and abuse that's being uncovered and
Speaker 1: a couple of stories I here, get a load of this.
Speaker 1: FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency received two hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: thousand applications from purported homeowners as a consequence of those
Speaker 1: recent Los Angeles fires. How many homes do you think
Speaker 1: were destroyed? Thirteen thousand? Nothing to see here, twenty times
Speaker 1: the number of eligible applicants actually submitted applicants. Now, Apparently,
Speaker 1: many displaced residents tried applying for FEMA relief, finding that
Speaker 1: someone else had already applied in their name with their
Speaker 1: address and locking them out of the system. They attempted
Speaker 1: to make the relief funds easier to apply for, but
Speaker 1: that resulted in fraudsters making taking advantage. How easy it
Speaker 1: is to game the system. To point it out that
Speaker 1: identity theft and natural disasters is not uncommon, especially when
Speaker 1: maps for affected areas and addresses are easily available online,
Speaker 1: and you have your online real estate sites and your
Speaker 1: online auditor sites, all of which identify the names and
Speaker 1: owners of the various the real estate property you own.
Speaker 1: Apparently only several individuals have been arrested for fraud and
Speaker 1: connection with these grants in the LA Fires. One is
Speaker 1: suspected of having collected on a similar fraudulent application for
Speaker 1: two decades ago, going back to Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
Speaker 1: Hurry up, rush, throw a whole bunch of money at it.
Speaker 1: We learned this with the PPP loans, didn't we ah
Speaker 1: tivoting over this one is mind boggling, but it's an
Speaker 1: illustration of what happens when you just throw gobs of money,
Speaker 1: American taxpayer money without any oversight. Finally, justice is served here.
Speaker 1: Leader of Minnesota Anti hunger nonprofit convicted in US district
Speaker 1: court yesterday of masterminding what is described in the reporting
Speaker 1: a brazen scheme reaping more than two hundred and forty
Speaker 1: million dollars in pandemic relief funds through a network of
Speaker 1: bogus food kitchens that build a government for ninety one
Speaker 1: million meals. Leader of the nonprofit, named a woman named
Speaker 1: Amy Bach, forty four, convicted by a jury on seven counts,
Speaker 1: including wire fraud and fraud and bribery. Another defendant Salem Said,
Speaker 1: thirty six year old who oversaw one of the bogus kitchens,
Speaker 1: convicted of twenty counts, including wire fraud and bribery. She
Speaker 1: was charged in twenty twenty two. Federal prosecutors set her
Speaker 1: scheme was the biggest known fraud against government's COVID nineteen
Speaker 1: relief program. At least seventy people were charging the scheme.
Speaker 1: More than forty pleted guilty or have been convicted. Last year,
Speaker 1: another case related to the same scandal made national news
Speaker 1: when news when someone attempted to bribe a juror in
Speaker 1: a separate trial by leaving about one hundred and twenty
Speaker 1: thousand dollars cash at her home in a Hallmark gift back.
Speaker 1: Five people later charged with bribery in that case. Judge
Speaker 1: Nancy Brazil, after the jury verdict, ordered ms Bach and
Speaker 1: mister Sage to remain in jail to await their sentencing.
Speaker 1: Charges carry potential sentence more than a decade in prison.
Speaker 1: Fraud's gem targeted two programs meant to feed hungry children.
Speaker 1: Oh it's the hungry, we need to help them. Oh,
Speaker 1: my God, who could stand in the way of feeding
Speaker 1: the hungry? Not me, but you know what. How about
Speaker 1: a little oversight Funded by the US Department of Agriculture
Speaker 1: administered by the state of Minnesota. The system relied on
Speaker 1: non profit groups, which are called sponsors, to be its watchdogs,
Speaker 1: allocating financial oversight to some other outside entity that apparently
Speaker 1: was involved in the scheme. They were supposed to oversee
Speaker 1: individual kitchens and feeding sites and make sure they were
Speaker 1: not inflating the number of children served. Wait for it,
Speaker 1: when the pandemic hit, the federal government flooded money into
Speaker 1: the program. I'm the problem. Trying to reach children who
Speaker 1: apparently out of school and therefore unable to rely on
Speaker 1: school lunch is another problem with the lockdown, Right, you
Speaker 1: lock down schools and then turn you turn away kids
Speaker 1: who otherwise would have gotten a free school lunch, exacerbating
Speaker 1: that problem. Then you create a program with literally millions
Speaker 1: and millions and millions of taxpayer dollars to feed the
Speaker 1: kids who you locked out of school. The government apparently
Speaker 1: also relaxed oversight, putting even more trust in these so
Speaker 1: called watchdogs the sponsors. Ms Bach ran a sponsor nonprofit
Speaker 1: called Feeding Our Future. Prosecutors said she'd conspired with dozens
Speaker 1: of people to set up two hundred and fifty non
Speaker 1: existent feeding operations around Minnesota and use their oversight power
Speaker 1: to hide the network from the government. By law, her
Speaker 1: nonprofit got a cut of the money. Prosecutors said it
Speaker 1: had eventually totalled eighteen million dollars. Now here's where the
Speaker 1: numbers come in. Many thick operations submitted invoices for implausibly
Speaker 1: large numbers of children. You know, I'm just drawing a
Speaker 1: parallel here the Social Security Administration having thousands and more
Speaker 1: than millions of literally impossible to be alive people on
Speaker 1: the books. There is no oversight. Thank you Doge for
Speaker 1: waking America up for that one. How could this go
Speaker 1: through and have been a thing for so long? Mister
Speaker 1: Said's operations said it had fed six thousand children a day,
Speaker 1: which was more than all the children in the zip code.
Speaker 1: One other instance of a man said he was feeding
Speaker 1: five thousand children every night from a location that turned
Speaker 1: out to be a second floor apartment. Prosecutor said that
Speaker 1: members of Box network had used the proceeds to sche
Speaker 1: on the scheme to buy homes, cars, commercial buildings. Bach
Speaker 1: herself funnel more money, funnel money to her boyfriend at
Speaker 1: the time, and used it to take trips to Las
Speaker 1: Vegas and rent Lamborghinis. Now, Minnesota got suspicious apparently back
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty so they were kind of onto this
Speaker 1: fairly early on in the scheme. They tried to stop payments.
Speaker 1: Someone wrote wtf after this the nerve and the huevos.
Speaker 1: She sued the state government after that, after they stopped payments,
Speaker 1: saying the officials were discriminating against her network because it
Speaker 1: served many African immigrants and their children. So all this
Speaker 1: day called in the FBI, which then investigated and raided
Speaker 1: her home back in twenty twenty two. In the days
Speaker 1: after the ray Bach told The New York Times that
Speaker 1: she was unaware there had been any fraud in the operations,
Speaker 1: and if there was fraud, she said, every test we
Speaker 1: have in place, every protection we have in place, didn't
Speaker 1: catch it. Is it possible, absolutely, And if they got
Speaker 1: one over on us, I will help hold them accountable. Well,
Speaker 1: welcome to the world of karma. Bite in the butt.
Speaker 1: Maybe late, but at least it happened. And you think
Speaker 1: this is the the only illustration of the kind of fraud,
Speaker 1: waste and abuse that's going on. They make it so
Speaker 1: easy for people to get money and never ever ever
Speaker 1: look to find out where the money went. Check out usaid,
Speaker 1: did that twenty million dollars to fund Sesame Street and
Speaker 1: in Iraq? Really go there and do that? Or did
Speaker 1: it land in someone else's pocket? Five six fifty five
Speaker 1: car CD talk stations stick around more to talk about
Speaker 1: local news rather hear from you. If you have a
Speaker 1: conversation you want to start, please feel free. I promise
Speaker 1: you I won't give you a hard time like I
Speaker 1: did mister Tube. But sorry, mister Toobe, I'd be right back.
Speaker 1: Thank you for taking me. There you go, Thanks show
Speaker 1: five thirty and a happy Friday to you. Get out
Speaker 1: of bed music man.
Speaker 2: I don't know why.
Speaker 1: For some reason, I've been really listening to a lot
Speaker 1: of system of Late going Late Bloomer anyhow five one, three, seven, four,
Speaker 1: nine fifty five eight hundred D two three Taco Time,
Speaker 1: five fifty even et and t phone. Trump signed the
Speaker 1: Executive Road yesterday afternoon in to White House ceremony attended
Speaker 1: by some Republican governors, including Governor Mike DeWine, who said
Speaker 1: at the meeting today, I joined President Trump and several
Speaker 1: fellow governors at the White House to support the President's
Speaker 1: proposal to turn education back to the States. Of course,
Speaker 1: Trump directed his Education secretary living them and to take
Speaker 1: all actionable, all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of
Speaker 1: the Department of Education and return education authority to the States.
Speaker 1: Also calls for the uninterrupted delivery of services, programs, and
Speaker 1: benefits on which Americans rely. Your funding isn't going away.
Speaker 1: In fact, you may have more flexibility with the funding.
Speaker 1: Maybe they just give you a block grant that doesn't
Speaker 1: have obligations on your state to teach things like women
Speaker 1: can be men and men can be women, and you
Speaker 1: must abide DEI and CRT obligations to be taught in schools,
Speaker 1: using up valuable time which otherwise would have been serve
Speaker 1: by teaching children mathematics and reading something that actually benefit
Speaker 1: their lives. Yeah, well, we can hope for a future
Speaker 1: that includes that reality. But for those people wailing and
Speaker 1: gnashing tea saying that the funding is going away, there
Speaker 1: has been one hasn't been one syllable about taking funding away.
Speaker 1: It's just going to grease the skids. So your local
Speaker 1: school district didn't have to spend all of its time
Speaker 1: filling out paperwork to show they've complied with federal government
Speaker 1: edicts and mandates. Oh, that's one area where they actually
Speaker 1: follow it, and they do force you to comply, and
Speaker 1: they do monitor and regulate it. Thank you Local story
Speaker 1: for Mike to Wine showing up there allowing the to
Speaker 1: vent my spleen. Here in Ohio House Republicans approved the
Speaker 1: build to overhaul Ohio public universities and colleges over Democrats objections.
Speaker 1: Senate Bill one past the Ohio Representatives fifty eight to
Speaker 1: thirty four. We had donovantly on Americans for Prosperity pushing
Speaker 1: this one just the other day. Happened pretty quickly. Proposed
Speaker 1: law would eliminate diversity, equity and Inclusion program scholarships, and along
Speaker 1: those lines, prohibit faculty from striking, prevent universe to use,
Speaker 1: from taking positions on what they call controversial beliefs. Maybe
Speaker 1: a First Amendment issue on that one, and allow tenured
Speaker 1: professors to be fired after reviews. Universities and colleges that
Speaker 1: refuse to comply with the changes will lose state funding,
Speaker 1: or at least they risk losing state funding. So that
Speaker 1: passed and actually again went really quickly. Let's see here, Well,
Speaker 1: I'll take Pete's call. I can take him before I
Speaker 1: move on. We'll see if Pete uses up the time,
Speaker 1: or I'll go back to the local stories. Pete, thanks
Speaker 1: for calling this morning. Happy Friday, Sam to you, Brian,
Speaker 1: thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 8: Hey, on the subject of waste and fraud, it is
Speaker 8: must just recently reported he found fourteen computers in the
Speaker 8: Treasury Department that he calls the magic computers.
Speaker 1: They just print money out of air.
Speaker 2: I saw that.
Speaker 8: Where it goes or gets it, But it sounds like
Speaker 8: those people in Minnesota went a lot more trouble than
Speaker 8: whoever's running those computers.
Speaker 2: They make it easy.
Speaker 1: Yes, I read that article and I you know much
Speaker 1: dismay as well as amusement. It doesn't shock me. I mean,
Speaker 1: when you start dealing with literally trillions and trillions of
Speaker 1: dollars in outlays, and even more than that, beyond what
Speaker 1: they take in, they churn out an additional two trillion
Speaker 1: dollars in outlays annually. A trillion is a thousand billion,
Speaker 1: a billion is one thousand million. You mean you see them,
Speaker 1: just mountains and mountains of cash to flow out. Who
Speaker 1: could possibly follow the paper trailer that money thro'n't enough
Speaker 1: human beings in the United States of America. If they
Speaker 1: were all if we were all accountants, we were all
Speaker 1: actuaries or you know, trained in following those dollars, I
Speaker 1: don't I think it would overwhelm the entire United States population.
Speaker 1: That's the problem. Federal government is too damn big, and
Speaker 1: it takes in and spends out too much money. I mean,
Speaker 1: we lost our way somewhere along the way, and thinking
Speaker 1: the federal government had the solutions of all our problems.
Speaker 1: All there's starving children. We need a program for that.
Speaker 1: Who could be against that?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Look how easy it is to build the American taxpayer
Speaker 1: just because you, you know, promised and bleed on you
Speaker 1: your heart bleeds for starving children. Legitimate cause, yes, an
Speaker 1: opportunity for fraud, absolutely, And we've got a declining morality
Speaker 1: and ethics problem in this country. I'm not sure if
Speaker 1: it's people's you know, straying from the religious norms and
Speaker 1: believing that stealing is a sin, or if it's connected
Speaker 1: with something broader, or maybe it's just the Internet that's
Speaker 1: created an opportunity for people who otherwise might not have
Speaker 1: been able to figure out how to defraud the federal government.
Speaker 1: The online forms let you apply. Look, two hundred and
Speaker 1: forty thousand people applied for Los Angeles fire relief from FEMA,
Speaker 1: and there's only thirteen thousand burned residents. How did that happen?
Speaker 1: I wonder and all Jinda this morning five thirty five,
Speaker 1: if stack is stupid, might mellow things out? Please put
Speaker 1: a smile on your face? Perhaps don't go away.
Speaker 9: Right back fifty five KRC. In this edition of The
Speaker 9: Marketer's Room, of course Friday gotta do that. My friend
Speaker 9: Jeffrey chimed in already more primus. It's that time.
Speaker 1: You're right, Jeff, appreciate you. Tenning in the Morning Show
Speaker 1: five seven fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two to three, talk. Wow,
Speaker 1: they've quite a few real horror stories going on the
Speaker 1: Stack of Stupid, and why not get the most horrific
Speaker 1: one out of the way. I think about I think
Speaker 1: about this story in the context of the food service industry.
Speaker 1: You know, respect your preparers of your food. If you're
Speaker 1: rude to them or angry with them before you get
Speaker 1: your food, bad things might happen behind the scenes. I've
Speaker 1: heard stories, Joe, have you heard stories along those lines
Speaker 1: as well. No idea what I'm talking about, he said,
Speaker 1: in language that I really don't believe him being serious.
Speaker 1: We got to Houston, Texas, where a janitor who worked
Speaker 1: at a Texas medical facility was just sentenced to six
Speaker 1: years in prison for spreading sexually transmitted diseases because he
Speaker 1: pede in women's water balls water bottles, what the hell,
Speaker 1: infecting at least thirteen women. Proscu's in Houston charged Luccio
Speaker 1: Cartino Diaz fifty seven with aggravated assault with a deadly
Speaker 1: weapon after epeed or spread bodily fluids other bodily fluids

Speaker 1: who worked for a janitorial contract acting company, approaching your desk,
Speaker 1: rubbing his you know what on the interior of the
Speaker 1: water ball quote, even turning it upwards to ensure he
Speaker 1: touched the water. When confronted by police, he admitted to
Speaker 1: the crime and was charge of aggravated assault with the
Speaker 1: deadly weapon. By twenty twenty three, at least thirteen women
Speaker 1: reportedly tested positive for STDs. Then a lowsuit was fought
Speaker 1: against Ez, the cleaning company worked for in the owner
Speaker 1: of the medical building. The management company lawsuit seeking one
Speaker 1: million dollars in damage, which seems insufficient given the gravity
Speaker 1: of these crimes. Thank you, Joe, the.
Speaker 10: Biggest douche of the universe, in all the galaxies, there's
Speaker 10: no bigger douche than you. You've reached the top, the
Speaker 10: pinnacle of douche dump. Good going, deuce, your dreams have come.
Speaker 1: True, and let this be a lesson. It's probably not
Speaker 1: a good idea to leave your wall butter bottle opened
Speaker 1: on a table after hours. It could have been, you know,
Speaker 1: a reusable water bottle with a screw off lid. Bad
Speaker 1: idea to leave it open, because there's crazy people in
Speaker 1: the world. Jeez, man, I always worried like hell about
Speaker 1: my daughter being out at bars in colleges and things
Speaker 1: like that, because it's so easy to you know, throw
Speaker 1: a date, rate job in a drug in a glass.
Speaker 1: Never leave your drink unattended, even for a moment. Anyway,
Speaker 1: facing arrest for pelting his spouse with his lunch and
Speaker 1: a metal spoon, a louisianam, we aren't going to find out.
Speaker 1: Louisiman offered police a rather novel legal take. Investigators alleged
Speaker 1: that a recent verbal argument between Willie Cook, fifty eight,
Speaker 1: and his wife of thirty five years turned violent when
Speaker 1: Cook began throwing food at her. He also allegedly threw
Speaker 1: a through a metal spoon, which hit her in the head.
Speaker 1: Cop showed up at the Monroe home. They were observed
Speaker 1: They observed food on the master bed where the victims
Speaker 1: state of the incident took place. Additionally, police detected a
Speaker 1: small lump on the back of the victim's head. After
Speaker 1: being read his rights, Cook declared that it was not
Speaker 1: unlawful to throw food at his spouse. That claim rejected
Speaker 1: by the police. Cook arrested for domestic abuse battery. Thank you,
Speaker 1: li Liam. He spent two days in custody before posting
Speaker 1: a five hundred dollars bond on the misdemeanor charge. Forty
Speaker 1: five fifty five KRCD. Is that a crime? Yes, don't
Speaker 1: go away. I got more stupid coming up or phone calls.
Speaker 1: It's your choice. Be right back.
Speaker 11: This is fifty five karc an iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 1: Called the pros a zero's AIRD five forty nine fifty
Speaker 1: five krcdclus station game Friday that part of the day
Speaker 1: of had an award winning segment it is. That's so awesome.
Speaker 1: He deserves every bit of accolade and praise he can
Speaker 1: get because he is awesome at what he does. And
Speaker 1: of course I appreciate the information he passes along, even
Speaker 1: if it freaks me out, and it should probably freak
Speaker 1: you out too. Before I get to back to the
Speaker 1: stack of stupid, Let's see what Kevin's got this morning. Kevin,
Speaker 1: thanks for calling a Happy Friday, you sir, Happy Friday.
Speaker 12: Brian want to touch space and get your comments on
Speaker 12: the latest daily executive order.
Speaker 1: And which I mean. You're talking about Trump's order on
Speaker 1: closing down to the part of education.
Speaker 12: Trying to cut over thirteen and a half percent of
Speaker 12: federal funding.
Speaker 2: I'm all for it.
Speaker 1: Well, I think that goes to administration and things of
Speaker 1: that nature, because by all accounts and all reports from
Speaker 1: everybody who's chimed in on the topic, intellected capacity or
Speaker 1: appointed capacity has said this will not impact federal money
Speaker 1: coming to schools. It's just going to be in the
Speaker 1: form of a block rant. As opposed to dollars being
Speaker 1: dolled out along with strings attached. At least that's my
Speaker 1: take on the matter. So they can cut out fat,
Speaker 1: they can cut out excess employment, they can cut out
Speaker 1: form filler outers and people who read form from the
Speaker 1: school district's reporting on their compliance with DEEI and CRT initiatives.
Speaker 1: I view that as a wonderful thing. That's it, okay.
Speaker 1: I guess that was the end of the conversation. I
Speaker 1: did time on in that earlier in the program too,
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the hour, when commenting on Mike
Speaker 1: Dewines being there for the issuance of that executive order.
Speaker 1: Let us see here go to Boca Raton, Florida. Naked
Speaker 1: sixty seven year old book Ratan woman allegedly threatened a
Speaker 1: young child and her family with ama chete Machetti, don't Machetti,
Speaker 1: don't text for those fans of the Machetee films. Vanessa
Speaker 1: red A Boca Cove Circle arrested, remaining in the Palm
Speaker 1: Beach County jail as of yesterday morning. A Canadian native
Speaker 1: charged with indecent exposure of a sexual organ singular aggravated
Speaker 1: assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill, according
Speaker 1: to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, who wrote in
Speaker 1: the report, Deputy M. Russ Russo. Upon arrival, I met
Speaker 1: with the victims, who advised the following. They were walking
Speaker 1: with their seven month old child when they observed a
Speaker 1: white Nissan road driving recklessly through the community, and after
Speaker 1: the same vehicle circled the complex, it returned, at which
Speaker 1: point they yelled for the driver to slow down. Driver
Speaker 1: later identified as Vanessa Reed, then parked, exited the vehicle,
Speaker 1: and retrieved the machete from the back seat, then stepped
Speaker 1: toward the victims one parking space away from her vehicle,
Speaker 1: waving the machete and threatening manner, then shouting obscenities toward
Speaker 1: the folks there approximately six parking spaces distance away. Both
Speaker 1: baited during their interviews that they were in fear and
Speaker 1: they saw the female with the machete, and after a
Speaker 1: brief moment, Reid returned the machete to her vehicle and
Speaker 1: proceeded to her second floor apartment. Before entering, she lifted
Speaker 1: her dress and exposed her genital area in front of
Speaker 1: them and the child. Once the victims recorded part of
Speaker 1: the incident she was later it later submitted to the
Speaker 1: evidence dot Com. Myself and D. S. Johnson went to
Speaker 1: Unit six twelve speak with her. She opened the door
Speaker 1: yelling obscenities, then slammed the door shut once she discovered
Speaker 1: it was the depties at her door and refused to
Speaker 1: come out and speak. Community service officer confirmed that there
Speaker 1: were cameras of the event. Of course there were there
Speaker 1: always are. Based on investigation, probable cause exists to charge
Speaker 1: her with aggravated assault with the deadly weapon indecent exposure.
Speaker 1: Apprehended by the street team in front of a residence,
Speaker 1: she admitted having the machete in her vehicle. When asked
Speaker 1: about the e ues, she stated, I just swing it around.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Uh go to Manhattan, New York. Naked guy seen dangling
Speaker 1: from a Manhattan building yesterday as police conducted a warrant
Speaker 1: operation seven am sixty Amsterdam Avenue. According to sources, the
Speaker 1: man was avoiding police, jumped out of the window when
Speaker 1: officers enter the building. He dangled from the Manhattan building
Speaker 1: until he was recovered by police. Not clear why the
Speaker 1: man was the voting police and no word on why
Speaker 1: he was naked. How hard is it? I? Wasn't there
Speaker 1: to tell you me. Evansville, Indiana police investigating an indecent
Speaker 1: exposure call end up with arresting a man for possession
Speaker 1: of meth n fetamine. There's your answer to the question
Speaker 1: right up front. Officers called a motormart at the quarter
Speaker 1: of North Green River Road. Caller told police that a
Speaker 1: man walked into the gas station naked. Police got there,
Speaker 1: they talked to a witness who said thirty nine year
Speaker 1: old Christopher Wolfe was in the bathroom, but actually walked
Speaker 1: through the store wrapped in his sheet due to end
Speaker 1: quote accident, close quote what an Officers approached him. They
Speaker 1: say he was wearing pants but no shirt, was sweating
Speaker 1: and off balanced. They searched him, found methan fetamine and
Speaker 1: two glass pipes. Arrested and taken to the Vanderburgh County Jail. WHOA,
Speaker 1: that's a lot of feces. I think that's the answer
Speaker 1: to that question, and got time for another one. Go
Speaker 1: to Waco, Texas, where a man was arrested at a
Speaker 1: woman found him lying naked next to her juvenile daughter,
Speaker 1: who he had sex with earlier in the day.
Speaker 11: Do what the hell?
Speaker 1: Damaran Tyreek Veal eighteen charged with indecency with child sexual
Speaker 1: conduct on March fourteenth, after they would say. Police sent
Speaker 1: to an undisclosed address after the woman called police saying
Speaker 1: she found a man naked lying next to her juvenile
Speaker 1: daughter in the bedroom. Age of the juvenile not specified
Speaker 1: eighteen year old later identified his veal was still inside
Speaker 1: the home, hugging the juvenile victim, and police showed up.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm inclined to say I might have asserted
Speaker 1: my castle doctrine writes on that one, Joe, you have
Speaker 1: children of your own, You have daughters of your own. Anyway,
Speaker 1: moving back, officer spoke to the juvenile victim Courdy. She
Speaker 1: was initially reluctant to give information about the incident, but
Speaker 1: the victim eventually told officers that he performed sexual acts
Speaker 1: with her on the morning of March fourteenth. Police found
Speaker 1: evidence in the bedroom, including a towel used after the
Speaker 1: incident and a condom wrapper on the floor. Officers took
Speaker 1: the juvenile victim to the Baylor, Scott and White Hospital
Speaker 1: for a safe examination. Bill later arrested and charged booked
Speaker 1: into the mcclennan County Jail on a ten thousand dollars
Speaker 1: bond where I'm sure his fellow inmates were treating him
Speaker 1: appropriately mean five to fivety five KRCD talk Station. We
Speaker 1: got some time to talk between now and the award
Speaker 1: winning Tech Friday segment coming up with Dave at Or.
Speaker 1: I hope you can stick around us. Happens fast, stay

Speaker 1: It is Friday, it is lunch, So Joe Strecker kindly
Speaker 1: provides us with all the information we need to support
Speaker 1: your local fish fry. Love those things, Jay Ratliffe. Yesterday
Speaker 1: I heard media aviation expert on aviation issues. I hope
Speaker 1: you were to make it to Hunter Oswald's presentation on
Speaker 1: Herbert Hoover last night. Another great empower Youth Seminar Dan
Speaker 1: Hills having some problems with the Fairfield Police Department, they
Speaker 1: retain his organization to help them navigate contract negotiations, including
Speaker 1: having them figure out what in the hell their insurance
Speaker 1: pays for medical insurance. That was crazy. They have no
Speaker 1: idea what they're going to be paying in medical insurance
Speaker 1: or what the insurance covers. That's really the boiled down
Speaker 1: version of what I heard yesterday from Dan Hills and
Speaker 1: a full hour with George Brenneman and his cohort Keith
Speaker 1: on health initiatives and health issues and better ways to
Speaker 1: manage our diets for the purpose of, you know, protecting ourselves,
Speaker 1: feeling better generally speaking, and improving our overall health. As
Speaker 1: I mentioned two three talk got more to talk about.
Speaker 1: Of course, lots of stories this morning, but let's turn
Speaker 1: to the phones first because I see west Sie. Jim's
Speaker 1: on the phone. Jim, Welcome back, my friend. It's always
Speaker 1: good hearing from you.
Speaker 13: Good morning, Brian Thomas, and a happy happy Friday. Hey,
Speaker 13: I might have a solution for our favorite street. Just
Speaker 13: a little bit off subject, Sunset. There is an event
Speaker 13: today called witty Fest, and basically it should be called
Speaker 13: drink Fest. It's a price will chili and it starts
Speaker 13: around noon. Well, I'm going to send an invitation to
Speaker 13: our lovely Mayor and his nine cronies and tell them
Speaker 13: that the fastest and quickest way to Witty Fest is
Speaker 13: up Queen City and turn turn up.
Speaker 1: Turn on a sunset right, bring you off road vehicle.
Speaker 1: They like they might. I doubt any of them have
Speaker 1: traveled that direction.
Speaker 13: Well they all, yeah, they all need either a GPS ord,
Speaker 13: they need a map. That's for dagon. Sure. But usually
Speaker 13: at these events a lot of the Democratic politicians do
Speaker 13: show up. Mister Whitty has to do with all these
Speaker 13: people when he used to do a thing called Table One,
Speaker 13: which was like a mini podcast that was mostly Democrats.
Speaker 13: So mister Whitty is very good friends with a lot
Speaker 13: of those. But I thought that was a pretty good idea.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 13: They they might see the light and instead of maybe
Speaker 13: getting the third snow removal truck, now that the snow's
Speaker 13: basically gone for the year, they might just go ahead
Speaker 13: and get that get that thing filled in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it certainly deserves some attention. I have no
Speaker 1: idea what he was talking about. Does PG sent thought
Speaker 1: every show up at these events anymore, because Joe said
Speaker 1: if he does watch your drink, I don't even know
Speaker 1: what he means by that.
Speaker 13: Anyhow, well, you have to watch your drink anytime PG.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, we'll move on. I don't want to,
Speaker 1: but well.
Speaker 13: Used the companies. Yeah, he was definitely there every time,
Speaker 13: and especially in a year where they're running. Generally the
Speaker 13: Democrats do show up for atty other candidates, I should say,
Speaker 13: and the city manager will pop her head.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you know, I like your suggestion, and
Speaker 1: the extent they have shown up in the past, maybe
Speaker 1: it'll serve to illustrate a profound problem. It's been lingering
Speaker 1: around for far too many years. That road is like
Speaker 1: it came from a war zone. And I know those
Speaker 1: other people out there going, well, what about my road?
Speaker 1: And I agree with you, Yeah, what about your road?
Speaker 1: Take care of the damn roads and quit building skate
Speaker 1: parks or funding non governmental organizations with whatever money you
Speaker 1: got laying around. Let's do your blanking job.
Speaker 13: That's skate park. That skate park. She must have relatives
Speaker 13: that want to do that. I just don't understand how
Speaker 13: they could spend this money and just actually walk with
Speaker 13: a straight face going down the streets down city by
Speaker 13: City Hall. And you know that, speaking of that, I
Speaker 13: drove almost every time I'm downtown across that mural. That
Speaker 13: thing's going to have to be redone again, and you
Speaker 13: know every time they redo that. I'm not mistaken around
Speaker 13: a quarter of a million dollars to paint that mural
Speaker 13: out in front of the city Hall.
Speaker 1: You mean the Black Lives Matter one? Yeah, well they
Speaker 1: got really one in Washington, d C. So at taxpayer
Speaker 1: expenses to put it up and then take it down. Well,
Speaker 1: I helpe some of them show up, Jim. I think
Speaker 1: it's an outstanding idea that you invite them. So we'll
Speaker 1: see if the alignment business increases after their trips up Sunset.
Speaker 13: By the way, Brian real Quick, I was down by
Speaker 13: Corey yesterday down his coffee shop, so it's going to
Speaker 13: be pretty good to listen to him this morning. He's
Speaker 13: got a great little coffee shop down here. I don't
Speaker 13: know why everybody wants to pick on him, because here's
Speaker 13: a capitalist. You know, basically, he's bringing tax money into
Speaker 13: the system and that neighborhood if you drive around when
Speaker 13: eventually when you get down to his shop, which I
Speaker 13: know you will if you drive around the block on
Speaker 13: Dayton Street and all these It's not that bad. There's
Speaker 13: some really beautiful homes down I.
Speaker 1: Just said that. For years and years I used to
Speaker 1: travel and drive them down Dayton Street when I worked
Speaker 1: at the courthouse because I was so impressed with the
Speaker 1: architect eure and just looked at what how much massive
Speaker 1: opportunity there is to rehab those beautiful houses. But apparently
Speaker 1: there's rules and regulations that stand in the way of that.
Speaker 1: The city has other ideas, at least according to Corey.
Speaker 1: He'll be joining the program at eight oh five in studio.
Speaker 1: Look forward to that. Have a great weekend, Jim. Always
Speaker 1: a pleasure. Let's see what Steve's got this morning, Steve
Speaker 1: from Independence. Good to hear from you, Steve.
Speaker 14: Yes, sir. And when I'm on hold, I'm thinking, well,
Speaker 14: I'm going to follow west Side Jim. And I was
Speaker 14: thinking years and years ago. I followed Bob from Oakley
Speaker 14: one time on a phone call, and I mentioned it
Speaker 14: to you, and I said it was like an honor
Speaker 14: and it's kind of neat to follow west Side Jim.
Speaker 14: But it doesn't have the same pash.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was.
Speaker 1: It was still kind of fun, but it's I missed Bob.
Speaker 14: Bob from Oakley. What a neat guy he was. I mean,
Speaker 14: he really was interesting.
Speaker 1: Are Brian? I got a file? I got a file?
Speaker 1: He always had a file on everything that was even
Speaker 1: if you.
Speaker 14: Talked about something he didn't know anything about.
Speaker 12: He that was yeah, he.
Speaker 14: But he did know a lot about really obscure stuff.
Speaker 14: Oh yes, he was interesting.
Speaker 1: He's written, he wrote several books on Ohio history. And
Speaker 1: a brilliant man he was, and certainly has had a
Speaker 1: lasting impact on the morning show. I love you.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I had forgotten about him until you know, it's
Speaker 14: amazing how your mind works. But Colin, really for two reasons.
Speaker 14: I'm about to turn sixty three, so we're similar. I
Speaker 14: retired at sixty two, but I immediately started working a
Speaker 14: different job three days a week, so I've got four
Speaker 14: days off every week. You can't wipe the smile off
Speaker 14: my face. I don't encourage you to do this, but
Speaker 14: you really sound the last year or so, I mean,
Speaker 14: the schedule is killing you. I can tell you love
Speaker 14: what you're doing, but the schedule gets to you. Have
Speaker 14: you ever thought of doing it on a four day
Speaker 14: a week basis taken you know, three day weekend. I mean,
Speaker 14: I think that would do wonders for you. I don't
Speaker 14: I don't want you to do it because I like
Speaker 14: listening to you. But for your own sanity, you might
Speaker 14: you might want to keep it in the back of
Speaker 14: your mind and think about it.
Speaker 1: Joe chu Is, what about his sanity?
Speaker 14: Well, you know that I cast out was only so
Speaker 14: big and only caught. You know, I was only fishing
Speaker 14: for a certain type of fish, and I'm not to
Speaker 14: think about anyway. I mean, again, it is amazing what
Speaker 14: it does for you. I'm glad I'm still productive and
Speaker 14: and you know I'm still I'm too young to not
Speaker 14: not work. But it's amazing with that, you know, extra
Speaker 14: couple of days because I used to work multiple jobs too.
Speaker 14: I've worked six days a week, and it's just it's
Speaker 14: it's amazing. The other thing I really appreciate when you
Speaker 14: do the nutrition stuff. I know you did it yesterday
Speaker 14: in case you're wondering if people are interested. I mean,
Speaker 14: I'm fascinated by that. And I do have a question
Speaker 14: from last week. You had somebody on they were talking
Speaker 14: about the sour dough bread your wife makes What was
Speaker 14: the problem with that that they that they had.
Speaker 1: Well, she was big into MSG and eradicated MSG, and
Speaker 1: apparently MSG comes from multiple sources. No, I'm no doctor,
Speaker 1: but it was doctor Katie pulling up the book Katie
Speaker 1: read and the name of the book, and you can
Speaker 1: find it on my blog page along with the podcast
Speaker 1: of the conversation Fat, Stressed and Sick MSG Processed food
Speaker 1: in America's Health Crisis. And you know, I still firm
Speaker 1: the believe that eating homemade bread because it doesn't have
Speaker 1: any additives or preservatives, it doesn't have a shelf life
Speaker 1: of you know, like half life of plutonium like wonderbread
Speaker 1: or whatever, but it tastes a lot better, it's fun
Speaker 1: to make, and I think it's better for you. So
Speaker 1: I chimed out loud about that, and she said, well,
Speaker 1: you know, there are some downsides, which is basically eating
Speaker 1: bread generally. So nothing's perfect and I hardly eat any
Speaker 1: of it anyway, could my effort to keep carbs out
Speaker 1: of my diet. So I'm going to ignore that recommendation
Speaker 1: and continue down my path with preservative additive free homemade
Speaker 1: our bread Zarado bread from my wife, who is awesome
Speaker 1: at making it, and I appreciate you, honey, for doing
Speaker 1: it every week. And I appreciate the kind word Steve.
Speaker 1: I really do. And as I've pointed out many times
Speaker 1: over the years, even though I do have to get
Speaker 1: up at two thirty, this job beats the hell out
Speaker 1: of practicing Law six fifteen fifty five krc DE talk
Speaker 1: station Foreign Exchange, getting touched to Foreign Exchange, make an appointment,
Speaker 1: get your car fixed for less money than the dealer,
Speaker 1: and get it fixed with a full warranty on parts
Speaker 1: and service after that, as certified mechanic works on your
Speaker 1: car has access to your manufacturer's technical information. I don't
Speaker 1: care where the car came from, whether it's an Asian
Speaker 1: or European traditionally manufactured automobile, from the exotic to the mundane.
Speaker 1: They can service it and you'll have a smile on
Speaker 1: your face knowing that you didn't pay nearly as much
Speaker 1: as the dealer to have the car serviced, and speaking
Speaker 1: a dealer, you're going to go to the dealer for
Speaker 1: things under warranty. It's a great idea to have Foreign
Speaker 1: Exchange check your card to a bumper to bumper at
Speaker 1: check up on that car before it goes out of
Speaker 1: warranty because they can uncover things. My wife's car is
Speaker 1: under warranty, but headed up there for an oil change
Speaker 1: and they found quite a few little do dads that
Speaker 1: need to be fixed under warranty. Got a schedule an
Speaker 1: appointment with the dealer to have that taken care of.
Speaker 1: Thanks you, Foreign Exchange. Just an illustration of what they
Speaker 1: can do for you. But you can give them a
Speaker 1: call at five one three six four four twenty six,

Speaker 1: my friend.
Speaker 7: Hey, I always tell you this in the past and
Speaker 7: everything it doesn't change. Let me tell you, my friend,
Speaker 7: we appreciate everything you do holding that torch and flag
Speaker 7: or freedom up every day.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I really do. I really do. It
Speaker 1: keeps me going man. Opportunity to talk about freedoms and
Speaker 1: liberties and so many people are just so willing to,
Speaker 1: you know, give those freedoms and liberties up to the government,
Speaker 1: and they always end up wrecking things as a consequence.
Speaker 1: So I will not rest as long as they have
Speaker 1: the opportunity to do it.
Speaker 7: Do you think Washington Park Board of Directors will take
Speaker 7: the opportunity to maybe get a pickleball franchise with the
Speaker 7: million and a half dollar skateboard project they're doing.
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a connection, Bobby, but I
Speaker 1: wouldn't put it past them.
Speaker 7: Have they advertised in eastern Kentucky or anywhere you know
Speaker 7: with a one hundred mile radius ninety go into this
Speaker 7: new venture.
Speaker 1: Don't think so you can get your skateboard and to skateboarding.
Speaker 1: Head on up there, Bobby, I know you right all
Speaker 1: the time.
Speaker 7: I've got two of them right out the back of
Speaker 7: the sure you did automobile up. We'll put a calping
Speaker 7: on them and everything.
Speaker 1: Rip.
Speaker 2: That's it. That's it.
Speaker 1: Don't break something, Bobby. I appreciate your call. Man, have
Speaker 1: a wonderful day. Real quick here in the transgender related news.
Speaker 1: Got a couple of real quick here is that I
Speaker 1: wanted to illustrate the problem got going on here. We
Speaker 1: have a High School, Orgon High School student came under
Speaker 1: fire for well Oregon High School. The student, the school
Speaker 1: itself took some heat for allowing a transgender athlete. This
Speaker 1: will be a man participating as a woman in track
Speaker 1: and field, and it happened before, and it just happened again.
Speaker 1: Running as a eight of Gar Gallagher is the name
Speaker 1: of this man. Woman ran as a tenth grader McDaniel
Speaker 1: High School in Portland finished first place in the tunor
Speaker 1: meter and foreigner meter races during the Interscholastic League. In
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, well at it again. Eleventh grader, now
Speaker 1: on the track Portland Interscholastic League, finished more than seven
Speaker 1: seconds better than the rest of the field in the
Speaker 1: four hundred meter time fifty seven point six to two,
Speaker 1: and the next of the girl who came in second
Speaker 1: had a one zero five point seven to two. Pretty
Speaker 1: substantial difference that which makes perfect sense since men have
Speaker 1: a biological advantage over women, even if they claim their women.
Speaker 1: The biological biological advantage remains. In the twitter meter race
Speaker 1: twenty five point seven to six, the transgender child ran
Speaker 1: and the next in line twenty seven point three to one,
Speaker 1: and both season records one actual user observe. The experience
Speaker 1: must be so demoralizing for these girls, you look back
Speaker 1: later and be much more infuriated. Infuriated, especially if you
Speaker 1: have children of your own. The girls should all just
Speaker 1: start refusing to run and it will soon end. Yeah. Now,
Speaker 1: The Oregon School Activities Association has a gender identity participation
Speaker 1: policy that quote allows students to participate for the athletic
Speaker 1: or activity program of their consistently asserted agender identity while
Speaker 1: providing a fare and safe environment for all students. Somebody
Speaker 1: wrote ha exclamation point after that. As with Rule eight
Speaker 1: point two, they wrote, regarding duration and eligibility, rules such
Speaker 1: as this one promote harmony and fair competition among member
Speaker 1: schools by maintaining equality of eligibility and increase the number
Speaker 1: of students who will have an opportunity to participate in
Speaker 1: interscholastic activities. Somebody wrote, bs, run as a guy, You've
Speaker 1: got an opportunity run as your biological sex. Maine University
Speaker 1: capitulated to Donald Trump's Title nine rules and said, no,
Speaker 1: we will no longer allow men to participate as women.
Speaker 1: So there's a victory there, and the University of Pennsylvania
Speaker 1: federal funding pause has maybe caused some people to react
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy five million in federal funds of
Speaker 1: the University of Pennsylvania over its inclusion of transgender students
Speaker 1: at women's sports. Many women who had to compete against
Speaker 1: alongside former transgender UPenn summer Lea Thomas have spoken out
Speaker 1: in celebration. The issue is Statement of Fox nineteen, but
Speaker 1: they also filed a lawsuit and one of the things
Speaker 1: I learned in this According to lawsuit, Leah Thomas introduced
Speaker 1: by women's swimming head coach Mike Schnuerr to the women's
Speaker 1: swimmers during a team meeting in Fallow twenty nineteen, schnur
Speaker 1: allegedly told the women that swimmers that Thomas would not
Speaker 1: be sharing a locker room with them when they asked.
Speaker 1: After the initial introduction, he officially began to practice and
Speaker 1: compete with the women's swimmers and Fallow twenty one, that's
Speaker 1: when female swimmers said they well discovered that the coaches
Speaker 1: alleged claim was not true. He showed up and got
Speaker 1: undressed and dressed in the women's locker room in addition
Speaker 1: to competing against women, plaintiffs alleged and here's where I
Speaker 1: got really upset. University administrators pushed pro trans ideology onto
Speaker 1: them through the process of accepting Thomas on the team.
Speaker 1: In the locker room, former swimmers say they were led
Speaker 1: to feel their concerns over being being teammates with Thomas
Speaker 1: were rooted in a psychological problem. Quote. The UPenn administrators
Speaker 1: told women that if anyone was struggling with accepting Thomas's
Speaker 1: participation in the UPenn swimming team, they should seek counseling
Speaker 1: and support from something called CAPS, as well as the
Speaker 1: LGBTQ Center. The administrators also invited the women to talk
Speaker 1: to a talk titled trans one oh one. Thus, the
Speaker 1: women were led to understand the u Penn's position was
Speaker 1: that if a woman on the team had any problems
Speaker 1: with a transidentifying male being on her team, that woman
Speaker 1: had a psychological problem and needed counseling. Oh so it's
Speaker 1: the people who believe in biological reality are the ones
Speaker 1: with this psychological problem, not the guy thinking he's a woman.
Speaker 1: Ah right, okay, six six If you I have CARECD
Speaker 1: talk station. Thankfully Trump's doing something about it. More people
Speaker 1: are standing up to this nonsense. Note again, look at
Speaker 1: the world records in any sport. Look how much went
Speaker 1: men win by over women to just documented, observational, objective
Speaker 1: proof Zimmer Heating and air Conditioning that the great folks to

Speaker 1: recognizing Dave had or an interest it for this particular segment.
Speaker 1: That was really cool, Dave, I thanks for passing along
Speaker 1: that award online.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was pretty surprised.
Speaker 16: I thought it was pretty cool too, since you know,
Speaker 16: it just kind of fell out of the heavens. So,
Speaker 16: you know, thanks to you and Joe and fifty five KRC. Obviously,
Speaker 16: I couldn't do it without you guys, and well I
Speaker 16: enjoy his time every week.
Speaker 1: I do too. It's valuable information. I can't thank your
Speaker 1: company interest It at interest dot com for sponsoring in
Speaker 1: business career identified. You guys are the best in the
Speaker 1: business locally to keep businesses out of trouble and deal
Speaker 1: with their computer situation. So get in touch with them.
Speaker 1: You can do that thanks to the list today. Dave
Speaker 1: freaking me out. Thankfully. I don't have an echo. I
Speaker 1: don't know how people will abide and allow big brother
Speaker 1: or well to enter their living room, and now it's
Speaker 1: gotten worse. Let my listeners know about this, Dave.
Speaker 16: Yeah, Brian, I think most people just don't really understand
Speaker 16: what's happening. And that's one of the reasons why I
Speaker 16: find so much of this technology that has now worked
Speaker 16: its way into everyone's life offensive. You know, it's not
Speaker 16: the tech itself, it's the fact that most people are
Speaker 16: getting these so called smart devices, whether it's Alexa or
Speaker 16: anything else that can listen to you, and they don't
Speaker 16: really understand how it works, They don't really know how
Speaker 16: to secure it. They don't really engage with these things
Speaker 16: with informed consent because you know, you've got terms of
Speaker 16: service that are confused optly for lack of a better description,
Speaker 16: and people don't really understand or read that stuff, and
Speaker 16: then they just dump these things in. So Amazon's sent
Speaker 16: out of the email saying that as of March twenty eighth,
Speaker 16: if you have an Echo that uses Alexa, there you
Speaker 16: had a capability. And this is another one of my
Speaker 16: issues with these things, you know, dark patterns, privacy washing.
Speaker 16: They make everything opt in and you have to opt
Speaker 16: out of it rather than being you know, consumer focused
Speaker 16: and saying hey, here's a feature and you can opt
Speaker 16: into it if you want. So Amazon's email essentially said,
Speaker 16: if you have an Echo and you use Alexa, you'll
Speaker 16: no longer be able to store any recordings that makes
Speaker 16: locally on the device. So I want to also point
Speaker 16: out we've talked about this before.
Speaker 2: Studies have been done.
Speaker 16: There was one a couple of years ago where they
Speaker 16: took devices like this, put it in a room, turned
Speaker 16: on a TV, and just waited and let it run
Speaker 16: for twenty four hours to see how often would these
Speaker 16: things activate even when you didn't say Alexa or hey,
Speaker 16: Siri or whatever the wake word is. It'd be interesting
Speaker 16: to see how many we just set.
Speaker 1: Off this pint exactly.
Speaker 16: But all of that said that I encourage people go
Speaker 16: see for themselves the results of this study. You probably
Speaker 16: won't be happy. And it's because these things are geared
Speaker 16: to be easy to use, right, And if I make
Speaker 16: it too hard, if the window is too narrow for
Speaker 16: when it activates when I ask it to do something,
Speaker 16: it's going to frustrate people. So it's activating more than
Speaker 16: it should in most cases. And then now whatever whatever
Speaker 16: gets captured is not stored locally, and locally it's going
Speaker 16: to be sent to Amazon servers reportedly. Well, there have
Speaker 16: been many allegations in the past. There have been lawsuits
Speaker 16: in the past about storing kids' voices, human workers at
Speaker 16: Amazon listening to these things purportedly to make it work better.
Speaker 16: And now the idea is because of new enhanced AI capability,
Speaker 16: things like oh, I'll be able to know that it's
Speaker 16: Brian rather than Dave talking to it. So when you
Speaker 16: say give me my calendar, it would know my calendar
Speaker 16: redder than yours, So you know, I get what they're saying.
Speaker 16: You know, many have speculated this has more to do
Speaker 16: about generating more revenue, but bottom line is you're going
Speaker 16: to have significant functionality limitations on the device if you
Speaker 16: attempt to not you, if you don't disable the feature
Speaker 16: that says store locally, the thing basically won't be useful anymore.
Speaker 2: And that's just the way it's going to be.
Speaker 1: Well, the simple solution to all of this just disabled
Speaker 1: the device completely and not use it anymore. How's that, Dave?
Speaker 16: You know, my answer for people with all of these
Speaker 16: Internet and things, it's the best use is just throw
Speaker 16: it in the garbage and move on. You know, I
Speaker 16: don't even have syrianabled on my phone and it seems
Speaker 16: crazy to people, but you know, I just I just
Speaker 16: type on it when I want something, Brian, I don't
Speaker 16: want it listening to me.
Speaker 1: Amen, Amen, follow Dave's advice, and I think you and
Speaker 1: I share the same concurrent concerns and conclusions about Ohio
Speaker 1: porn Bill eighty four altruistic. Perhaps it may be, but
Speaker 1: George Orwellian it is so who will continue on that subject?

Speaker 1: Six thirty nine, Come about six forty five Kercity Talk
Speaker 1: Station or from the award winning podcast tech Man Dave Hatter.
Speaker 1: I just get to throw out of that, Dave, that's
Speaker 1: cuzy funny. A lot of people out there in the
Speaker 1: world listening to us.
Speaker 2: Again, I couldn't do it without you and Jim.
Speaker 1: No, it's listen man. This is a public service you're doing,
Speaker 1: and an opportunity to say, Okay, great idea in theory,
Speaker 1: but terrible idea and execution. Are elected officials in Columbus
Speaker 1: here in Ohio trying to keep kids away from pornography,
Speaker 1: and I understand the motives for doing that. But I
Speaker 1: hate I think this just demonstrate they really don't know
Speaker 1: a whole lot about tech because a simple answer in
Speaker 1: response to the proposed legislation, which of course i'll let
Speaker 1: you elaborate on, is a VPN.
Speaker 16: Yeah, it's like you, Brian, I understand what they're trying
Speaker 16: to do. And you know, I'm old enough to remember
Speaker 16: in the three web days where you know, when I
Speaker 16: was a teenager, if I want to go into a store, yeah,
Speaker 16: that was going to you know, sell let's just say
Speaker 16: blue material. You know, I might not be allowed in
Speaker 16: if I wasn't eighteen or twenty one or whatever. But
Speaker 16: to your point, it wasn't like, you know, we might
Speaker 16: not go to the neighbor's house and find their dad's
Speaker 16: collection or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yes, I grew up in a neighborhood with a lot
Speaker 1: of big Catholic families, and they always had older brothers
Speaker 1: who would provide access to that kind of material if
Speaker 1: you were looking for it. So there's always a way
Speaker 1: a workaround, Dave.
Speaker 16: Yeah, fort Wright is heavily Catholic as well, Brian, So yes,
Speaker 16: I get it.
Speaker 1: Now. I'm not suggesting that Catholics, you know, are are
Speaker 1: prey or you know, keep up people, these were older
Speaker 1: boys in the neighborhood you were able to acquire.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, lots of kids, older brothers. Yeah, I get.
Speaker 16: I'm one hundred percent on board with you. So it's
Speaker 16: the concerns raised about this, I think are legitimate. And
Speaker 16: you know right now, we've already got the Children's Online
Speaker 16: Privacy Protection Act. It's been on the books for a
Speaker 16: long time since you've got to be thirteen. D these
Speaker 16: social media sites other states have tried this. It's again,
Speaker 16: I understand what they're trying to do, and I think
Speaker 16: it makes sense that you don't want your ten year
Speaker 16: old getting access to hardcore porn online. But the approach
Speaker 16: of you're going to have to enter some sort of
Speaker 16: information that would prove that you are who you are
Speaker 16: and that you are at the right age, that gets
Speaker 16: really tricky. Do you want these companies having access to
Speaker 16: potentially sensitive data like your driver's license and driver's license number?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saying no, I don't.
Speaker 1: That's just it's going to third parties too.
Speaker 16: Yeah, it's again, I think they mean well, I understand
Speaker 16: the intentions of it, but I think the execution of
Speaker 16: it will be very difficult. We've already seen how things
Speaker 16: like Kappa have not put a dent in kids getting
Speaker 16: on these websites and so forth. And the less sensitive
Speaker 16: information there is about you out there in the world
Speaker 16: at this point, the better off you'll be, simply because
Speaker 16: even if company A, the first party that you're sharing
Speaker 16: this with, does everything right, if they have to share
Speaker 16: it with any third party for any sort of reason,
Speaker 16: like to actually perform the verification service, well now you
Speaker 16: have to trust that they'll do the right thing, they
Speaker 16: have the right security, they won't get hacked again. And
Speaker 16: I know a lot of people are going to say, well,
Speaker 16: all my information's out there already, Well maybe it is,
Speaker 16: maybe it is not. Though, Yeah, the more hands it's in,
Speaker 16: the more difficult it is for you to avoid unfortunate
Speaker 16: situations in the future, because you know, once the bad
Speaker 16: guys get a hold of your sensitive information, they can
Speaker 16: really upend your life. See that Disney programmer who downloaded
Speaker 16: some malware inadvertently and now his whole life is just
Speaker 16: completely wrecked as a result. So arla Alo, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: Alo.
Speaker 16: The company that is the parent company of porn Hub
Speaker 16: has weighed in on this, and actually, if you read
Speaker 16: their full statement. They basically suggest and I think this
Speaker 16: makes the most sense. And we've talked about pernal controls before.
Speaker 16: You know, whether it's your Windows based PC, whether it's
Speaker 16: your Android or Apple phone, you have parental controls built
Speaker 16: into these devices that can perform some of this filtering.
Speaker 16: Your Internet service provider will have internet controls. Your cellular
Speaker 16: carrier or have internet controls. This is where it gets
Speaker 16: kind of tricky, is where do you implement the controls
Speaker 16: to cover as many or all devices and or try
Speaker 16: to have a set of controls in depth. So if
Speaker 16: you're if your kids are savvy and they figure out
Speaker 16: how to get around one, you might block them with another.
Speaker 16: There's software out there like net nanny. It's specifically designed
Speaker 16: to do this, and I tend to agree with them.
Speaker 16: We would be better as a society and you would
Speaker 16: be better off with personal data you might need to
Speaker 16: supply if you were going to use these not being
Speaker 16: out there and instead saying okay, as a parent, I'm
Speaker 16: going to get my kid's devices. I'm going to get
Speaker 16: any devices they would have access to in my house,
Speaker 16: and I'm going to lock these things down. Now that
Speaker 16: doesn't prevent your kids from going to the neighbor's house
Speaker 16: where they.
Speaker 2: Haven't done this. Like you said at the beginning, Bruer, Right.
Speaker 1: George Carlin records were not allowed in the Thomas household,
Speaker 1: but right next door with the older brother, we did
Speaker 1: have access to the Seven Dirty Words and other George
Speaker 1: Carlin adult material. Richard pryor Amen, they could go on.
Speaker 1: And remember, it was so funny if you had a
Speaker 1: law like this implemented, if you go to a VPN
Speaker 1: that makes it look like you're in some other state,
Speaker 1: one that may not have this, and you will be
Speaker 1: able to have access to the pornography without inputting your
Speaker 1: driver's license and photograph and all that recognition software stuff.
Speaker 2: Exactly correct.
Speaker 16: And that's a perfect example of how so much of
Speaker 16: this technology cuts both ways. I mean, VPNs are a powerful,
Speaker 16: legitimate tool to secure your corporate data, to provide anonymity,
Speaker 16: but because of the way they work to your point prime, Yeah,
Speaker 16: I mean, I can fire up my Proton VPN and
Speaker 16: I can make it appear that I'm coming out of
Speaker 16: Finland right now, exactly.
Speaker 1: Too exactly so all right, one more anime. It gets
Speaker 1: worse as this segment goes on Android phones are tracking you,

Speaker 1: continuing the or Well report.
Speaker 16: Yeah, more bad names, Brian, but not a shocker to you,
Speaker 16: I'm sure, and real quick. I want to give a
Speaker 16: shout out to my old son Samuel. He just started
Speaker 16: a new job with my friends over at Reliant Search
Speaker 16: Group the technology and leadership talent. I'm proud of you, abud,
Speaker 16: love you, congratulate. You guys are gonna now. You guys
Speaker 16: are going to kill it over there at Reliant. So, Brian,
Speaker 16: this goes back to comments that made in the first
Speaker 16: segment and that you and I talk about almost every week.
Speaker 2: Again, what is frustrating to me?
Speaker 16: About so much of this stuff is we're in this
Speaker 16: surveillance capitalism model where whether it's Internet of Things devices
Speaker 16: which technically your phone would fall into, or you know,
Speaker 16: anything that's free online or low cost. You know, they'll
Speaker 16: practically give this stuff the way or they will give
Speaker 16: it away because the real money is not in selling
Speaker 16: you a piece of hardware. It's not in the software
Speaker 16: that's in the hardware, except to the extended collects your data,
Speaker 16: which they can then use to turn around and market
Speaker 16: all kinds of information to you, persuade you, some would say,
Speaker 16: manipulate you.
Speaker 14: Uh.
Speaker 16: And you know Google is at the top of the
Speaker 16: heap of this sort of thing, right Alphabet, the parent
Speaker 16: company of Google and Google and all the brand underneath it,
Speaker 16: make almost all of their money from collecting your data.
Speaker 16: I mean, it's really hard to find a product you
Speaker 16: can buy from Google directly unless you're a business like
Speaker 16: you know, keywords and that sort of thing. And if
Speaker 16: you have an Android phone. Researchers at Trinity College in
Speaker 16: Dublin did some study and they found that all kinds
Speaker 16: of information is being collected by your Android phone. Now
Speaker 16: it's interesting too, because you know, Android is an operating system.
Speaker 16: Pixel is the Google hardware. Android runs on other phones
Speaker 16: like Samsung and so forth. And I also, I always
Speaker 16: like to be clear to people, I'm not saying that
Speaker 16: other tech companies, including Apple, aren't doing similar kinds of things, right.
Speaker 16: It's just that Apple, for example, because they're the main
Speaker 16: competitor and Android in this space, tends to be a
Speaker 16: lot more privacy and security friendly in there because their
Speaker 16: business model is different. They are selling you hardware and software.
Speaker 16: I'm not saying they're not collecting your data, and I'm
Speaker 16: not saying they may may not eventually sell it, but
Speaker 16: that's not their primary revenue driver.
Speaker 2: It is. It's the hardware and software and services. But
Speaker 2: it is for Google.
Speaker 16: Yes, it's your data. And so through this study they did,
Speaker 16: they say, researchers found multiple identifiers are used to track
Speaker 16: the user of an Android handset, even before they have
Speaker 16: opened a Google app, were signed into their Google account.
Speaker 16: Pre Installed apps like Google Play services and Google Play
Speaker 16: Stores send cookies, identifiers, and other data to Google servers
Speaker 16: without user consent.
Speaker 2: Ding ding ding ding ding. The thing that makes me insane.
Speaker 2: People don't understand this, and you know, even.
Speaker 16: If they had some idea of it, it's usually very
Speaker 16: difficult to opt out of these things, right.
Speaker 1: Can you delete them? Can you delete the Google Play
Speaker 1: Store app from the phone and prevent this from happening?
Speaker 2: I believe the answer is no.
Speaker 16: And if you did that now I haven't used an
Speaker 16: Android in a long time, really since twenty seventeen because
Speaker 16: of these kinds of things. I believe the answer is no,
Speaker 16: because if you did that, then you wouldn't be able
Speaker 16: to update other apps on the phone that you need.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if you don't own more the apps on
Speaker 1: the phone, well, let's.
Speaker 16: Say, for example, Brian, if you're a business user and
Speaker 16: you need to install Outlook to do your thing right,
Speaker 16: Like I use Outlook on my Apple phone every day
Speaker 16: for work and for the city and all kinds of
Speaker 16: different things. Well, I want those important Outlook updates, whether
Speaker 16: it's bug fixes that impact the usability or security updates.
Speaker 16: So if I couldn't get an Outlook updated, then I'd
Speaker 16: fall into the trap that we talk about all the
Speaker 16: time of updating your software. So you know, Google Play
Speaker 16: Store and Google Play Services are an important component to
Speaker 16: making sure the apps you've installed on the phone are updateable.
Speaker 2: Does that make sense?
Speaker 16: So I understand your question, and I understand why you're
Speaker 16: asking it, But even if you could do it, which
Speaker 16: my guess is you probably can't, it would leave a
Speaker 16: smoking hole in the capabilities of the phone.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, I just disabled mine. Sadly, I do have
Speaker 1: a Samsung Android based system I have for years and
Speaker 1: years and years, much to your stagrain and mind included.
Speaker 1: But I pressed on the Google play Store. It says
Speaker 1: I can uninstall it, and it says I can disable it.
Speaker 1: So I just disabled it, which means I can re
Speaker 1: enable it down the road, I suppose.
Speaker 16: Well, yeah, I would assume that's probably true. And again,
Speaker 16: in order to get updates, Yeah, I don't care. I'll
Speaker 16: I'll have to look into that something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, why don't you do that? You can put an
Speaker 1: interesting fact sheet on how you can better protect your
Speaker 1: privacy from these intrusive entities and a step by step fashion,
Speaker 1: so idiots out here like me who have this operating
Speaker 1: system can successfully navigate deleting all the things on here
Speaker 1: that we really don't want or that are tracking us
Speaker 1: and that kind of thing. How about that?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I like it.
Speaker 16: But the point they make in here is there's all
Speaker 16: the stuff that's being collected again without your consent, before
Speaker 16: you've even really done anything. And they go on to
Speaker 16: say since there is no ask for consent. This is
Speaker 16: in the malware Bytes article talking about this research. Since
Speaker 16: there's no ask for consent, there's no way to opt out. Ironically,
Speaker 16: Google explains one of the advertising analytics cookies, the DSID
Speaker 16: cookie as quote used to identify a signed in user
Speaker 16: on non Google sites that the users adds personalization setting
Speaker 16: is respected accordingly, So they give you a cookie you
Speaker 16: didn't know or want, and they make it possible for
Speaker 16: advertisers to quote respect your settings even though they don't
Speaker 16: even know who you are yet. It's it's just you know,
Speaker 16: it's a way to track you, collect your data, aggregate
Speaker 16: your data, and push more content to you. Again, there
Speaker 16: is the legitimate personalization angle. I'm not saying that that
Speaker 16: isn't valuable potentially to people, because you know, if you're
Speaker 16: looking to buy X and you get an ad for X,
Speaker 16: well that might be helpful to you.
Speaker 2: But that's not really what this is about, right.
Speaker 16: It's the ability to collect as much data about you,
Speaker 16: build a very detailed mental map of what you do,
Speaker 16: what you buy, what you're interested in, and then push
Speaker 16: that sort of stuff to you.
Speaker 1: So yep, it was completely.
Speaker 16: Yes, I encourage people that they should go read this
Speaker 16: malware bytes article. I'll post it in the notes when
Speaker 16: I put that up because they go into more detail
Speaker 16: and then you can dig down into the full study itself.
Speaker 16: But again, this isn't unique to Google. They're just notorious
Speaker 16: for this sort of thing. And you know that's just
Speaker 16: the way it works if you are on any Google
Speaker 16: based platform.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: Always makes me feel bad every time we talk on that.
Speaker 1: Dave had our interest I dot com where you find
Speaker 1: Dana to Dave and the team, thank you for sponsoring
Speaker 1: this segment again, congratulations on the accolades well deserved. I'll
Speaker 1: look forward to next Friday and another very helpful edition
Speaker 1: of Tech Friday with you, Dave.
Speaker 16: Hatter Well, thank you, Brian. I appreciate you and Joe
Speaker 16: and all your listeners and talk to you next Friday.
Speaker 1: Look forward to Stick Around Steve Shuemake. That'd be Tayas
Speaker 1: Humex's husband. She's the homeschool expert we've had on many times,
Speaker 1: local author on his Dark World Saga trilogy. Stick Around,
Speaker 1: News that happens.
Speaker 4: Fast, Stay up to date, at the top of the hour,
Speaker 4: moving very quickly at fifty five KRC the talk station.
Speaker 7: Seven.
Speaker 1: I was six at fifty five air c DE talk station.
Speaker 1: A very happy Friday to you, please. Welcome to the
Speaker 1: fifty five Percy Morning Show. Author and local author, most
Speaker 1: known for being the wife of Taya Shoe May Because
Speaker 1: she's awesome and she's a great homeschooler. What Joe, oh,
Speaker 1: husband of Yeah, I had that backwards, Steve apologies. Steve
Speaker 1: Shuemake is a local author of a trilogy, the Dark
Speaker 1: World Saga Trilogy, which apparently began decades ago when he
Speaker 1: was a teenager. He wrote a hundred pages or so
Speaker 1: that ultimately become his first book, and at the prodding
Speaker 1: of his better half, put pen to paper and actually
Speaker 1: churned out these books. Welcome to the program, Steve. It's
Speaker 1: a pleasure having you on. How is your better half doing?
Speaker 1: If I can ask that first, you sure can.
Speaker 18: I gotta say that my wife Tya absolutely loves your show, Brian.
Speaker 18: She she's on here we are in Tennessee, and she
Speaker 18: is still dialed in every single morning.
Speaker 1: I'm still pleased to know that I think the world
Speaker 1: of her and all the things that she's done on
Speaker 1: behalf of homeschool and just a true advocate for true
Speaker 1: education of our children. So she's one of the pioneers
Speaker 1: and along those lines, and it's not easy to do,
Speaker 1: but she certainly put everybody toge in touch with the
Speaker 1: resources that allowed them to pursue what she had done
Speaker 1: and what you had done. So God bless her and
Speaker 1: good morning Teya. I'm glad to know that you're listening.
Speaker 1: I appreciate that, Steve. These books are fantasy books, am
Speaker 1: I correct and categorize them? It's not nonfiction? It's fiction,
Speaker 1: but within fiction there's multiple different subgenres. So how would
Speaker 1: you characterize these books?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 18: Correct, it's epic fantasy in the same lineage, if you will,
Speaker 18: as Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones or
Speaker 18: anything along those lines.
Speaker 1: Okay, And I was just gonna I was gonna comment
Speaker 1: I think the Lord of the Rings trilogy those the
Speaker 1: last fantasy books I read. I honestly, I'll be honest
Speaker 1: with you, the the genre has never compelled me. There's
Speaker 1: just so much just classic literature that I love, and
Speaker 1: you know, all kinds of other like nonfiction, and just
Speaker 1: never gravitated gravitated towards fantasy. I think that series I
Speaker 1: read when I was in junior high school. But beyond
Speaker 1: my comments, this is what you're here to do is
Speaker 1: help us through this. What was the purpose of the
Speaker 1: first book is something beyond just telling a fantasy story.
Speaker 1: I mean, I presume that there's messaging in there, as
Speaker 1: there usually is in literature.
Speaker 18: Yeah, for sure. I sought out to set out to
Speaker 18: create what I hoped was an interesting story. But the
Speaker 18: way that I went about doing it was I took
Speaker 18: for inspiration three attributes that most people around the world
Speaker 18: ascribed to God. And so the first was about wisdom,
Speaker 18: and Book one is called in Pursuit of Wisdom, and
Speaker 18: the second is security or protection, and so book two
Speaker 18: is in Need of Protection. And then I got pretty
Speaker 18: busy at my building a firm here in town, consulting firm,
Speaker 18: and it took about an eight year hiatus, much to
Speaker 18: the dismay of some of my readership. But finally Book
Speaker 18: three has come out, and I chose justice, which I
Speaker 18: think is a fairly timely, fairly relevant to our culture
Speaker 18: today attribute the people look for from a higher power.
Speaker 18: And so Book three is called in search of Justice,
Speaker 18: and that is coming out in print on April seventh.
Speaker 1: Oh, congratulations on the new one. I'm pleased to know
Speaker 1: that you're still hard to work on. I guess you're
Speaker 1: a fan of CS lewis work. Then it sounds like
Speaker 1: it's got shades of C. S. Lewis for sure.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 18: I took inspiration from a lot of different authors. I
Speaker 18: think most authors would admit that, but CS. Lewis is
Speaker 18: certainly high among them. Tolkien. I think everybody has to
Speaker 18: tip their cat if they're going to write in this
Speaker 18: genre to Tolkien. But even some of the more recent works,
Speaker 18: like I love some of you know, I love some
Speaker 18: of Stephen King's sudden plot twists in his Horror. I
Speaker 18: hate his endings. I think a lot of people do. Yeah,
Speaker 18: And even some of the other authors, like Susan Collins,
Speaker 18: they wrote pretty strong female characters without turning the men
Speaker 18: in their stories into into melli mouthed whimps, and so
Speaker 18: I like that aspect too. I mean, a lot of
Speaker 18: my female characters are pretty strong, but not at the
Speaker 18: expense of the male characters either. So I just took
Speaker 18: inspiration from a lot of different areas.
Speaker 1: Fair enough well, in pursuit of wisdom, the first book
Speaker 1: in the series. You create this this realm, you have
Speaker 1: this other world. It's not a place in the United States.
Speaker 1: It's not a place on our globe for example. It's
Speaker 1: it's a different land somewhere, a fiction land it is.
Speaker 18: Yeah. So the the interesting tidbit there, for a lot
Speaker 18: of the Catholics in the Cincinnati community, you may be
Speaker 18: familiar with a around around Easter or not Easter, but
Speaker 18: though sometimes around Easter a tenebrae service, which is a
Speaker 18: dark lights out service on Good Friday. And Tenebra I
Speaker 18: took his inspiration as the name of the world because
Speaker 18: it is the dark world saga and Tenebray is Latin
Speaker 18: for darkness. And so that's actually the whole theme of
Speaker 18: this book, these this this trilogy is it's a world
Speaker 18: that has fallen away from the One True God and
Speaker 18: and what that entails. And in part it's it's a
Speaker 18: it's a quest to kind of rediscover a little bit
Speaker 18: of the light.
Speaker 2: A question.
Speaker 1: And I was just going to ask you, this is
Speaker 1: a quest book. It's like the quest and I don't
Speaker 1: mean to be loose with this. For the Holy Grail,
Speaker 1: you have been issued a challenge. There's something that the
Speaker 1: main character is after or in search of.
Speaker 18: Yeah, there's a there's several main characters and and and
Speaker 18: several main villains. But yes, there is a quest that
Speaker 18: is part of the part of the motor that drives
Speaker 18: the narrative forward. But I would say that it's a
Speaker 18: lot more about the interactions and the character arcs, if
Speaker 18: you will, of the various protagonists involved, for sure. But yeah,
Speaker 18: there's definitely quests. For I took, for example, each of
Speaker 18: those attributes of God and I embodied them into an artifact,
Speaker 18: and so getting that artifact, the Staff of Insight, the
Speaker 18: Shield of Life, and then in this book, the Blade
Speaker 18: of Righteousness are just objects if you will, that they
Speaker 18: compel the characters action moving forward.
Speaker 1: Gotcha parallels though with the divine for sure, Okay. And
Speaker 1: in need of protection, I note that the notes indicate
Speaker 1: when war comes, where do people turn for protection? And
Speaker 1: I am going to anticipate that we should be a
Speaker 1: little introspective and kind of learn to swim on our
Speaker 1: own and maybe with the help of God.
Speaker 18: Yeah, I don't want to give too much away for us,
Speaker 18: but yeah, there is you know, at the core of this.
Speaker 18: I think that each book, uh, you know, I think
Speaker 18: provides a perspective and should force you to think. I mean,
Speaker 18: there's a little bit of philosophy. Hopefully it's an entertaining
Speaker 18: story regardless of your religion, but it would be impossible
Speaker 18: to read these and not pick up some threads of philosophy.
Speaker 1: Good Well, philosophy is another area of a literature that
Speaker 1: I'm very very much a fan of. So'm I good
Speaker 1: to get something out of this. Steve Shuemake, author of
Speaker 1: the trilogy, And finally.
Speaker 18: Tonless questions, I mean, if they're you know, the the
Speaker 18: hook for book one was if there is a God,
Speaker 18: why do bad things happen to good people?
Speaker 1: The eternal question.
Speaker 18: That's a question that's been asked by by people for thousands.
Speaker 1: Of you, Brian, you know, am I going to response
Speaker 1: to that? I don't get out in dark passage here?
Speaker 1: But he doesn't, you know, God doesn't necess you know,
Speaker 1: not gonna let you win the lottery or make you
Speaker 1: win the lottery. I think the people who use prayer
Speaker 1: as a mechanism to ask for stuff and things or
Speaker 1: on a bad parallel or on a bad path, you're
Speaker 1: supposed to use prayer. You're supposed to use prayer for introspection.
Speaker 1: You're talking to it all, seeing, all knowing power who
Speaker 1: can see through your bs if I may be so bold,
Speaker 1: so you can't lie to him. And it challenged you
Speaker 1: to find out you know where you are in your
Speaker 1: life and why things are going on in your life
Speaker 1: that sometimes have a negative impact, and perhaps learn from them.
Speaker 1: And that's the point I wanted to make. Bad things
Speaker 1: do happen to good people, but maybe they provide a
Speaker 1: vehicle for us to learn something like, for example, spend
Speaker 1: a lot of time with the people you love because
Speaker 1: the world's an imperfect place. They may get hit by
Speaker 1: a train tomorrow. You know, that's just one little lesson.
Speaker 1: I wish I had spent more time with them. So
Speaker 1: start doing that. Call your mom up every day, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying exactly, or don't do stupid stuff, Steve.
Speaker 18: But these are the These are the types of questions
Speaker 18: that I think make the book compelling, whether you're a
Speaker 18: fan of this genre or not, because it's they've been
Speaker 18: asked in there. Everybody goes through life and they ask
Speaker 18: these types of questions.
Speaker 1: Well, and the second one is fed by the where
Speaker 1: do we find protection during perilous times? And again I
Speaker 1: think people quite often look to leaders, which of course
Speaker 1: is part of your next your third book that's coming out.
Speaker 1: When leaders fail, who administers justice? But where do we
Speaker 1: find protection during perilous times? What's the sort of tease
Speaker 1: on that component of the second book?
Speaker 18: Yeah, a great question you really need when when times
Speaker 18: get tough. This is you know, my philosophy is, you know,
Speaker 18: we all should seek virtue. But what happens when the
Speaker 18: people in charge don't have virtue? What happens when the
Speaker 18: leaders and the characters in my book, in my world
Speaker 18: involved aren't always the most virtuous and you uh, and
Speaker 18: and governments fall, kingdoms fall, and you're left with chaos.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 18: Hopefully what people take away from that is that, you know,
Speaker 18: you you look to God. I mean, you should be
Speaker 18: looking towards something that is a little bit more stable
Speaker 18: than what you know, who's president today and who's gone tomorrow?
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: Well, also there's provide, there's there's his times provide opportunities
Speaker 1: for us to reflect on not repeating the mistakes of others.
Speaker 1: Another interesting lesson. We can learn from the bad things
Speaker 1: that happen to good people. Don't do that.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: And of course that the third book, When Leaders Fail,
Speaker 1: Who Administers Justice? It couldn't be a more timely book
Speaker 1: for your third release, Steve.
Speaker 18: Everybody is I think everybody has been you just look
Speaker 18: at the results of the last election. I think everybody
Speaker 18: has been craving, craving some semblance of justice for you
Speaker 18: know what has been done to this country over the
Speaker 18: last several years.
Speaker 1: So certainly timely, Amen, Steve. I hope you have a
Speaker 1: wildly successful writing career, and I encourage my listeners to
Speaker 1: head on over to fifty five cars dot com where
Speaker 1: Joe Strekker has updated my page. You include a link
Speaker 1: to the Dark World saga. You've got your personal link,
Speaker 1: You've got you on x pro s. Hope people can
Speaker 1: follow you, and then of course the links to the
Speaker 1: Amazon pages where they can buy the books. Steve, it's
Speaker 1: been great talking with you, and congratulations smart men Mary
Speaker 1: Smart and you clearly did that with Taya. Love her
Speaker 1: and keep up the great work when the other books
Speaker 1: come out. You've got a place to talk about him.
Speaker 12: Here it is.
Speaker 1: You're a nine first morning weather forecast.
Speaker 2: Today.
Speaker 1: We have a mostly sunny day fifty four for the
Speaker 1: high overnight clear skies forty two to the low sunny
Speaker 1: tomorrow after a few clouds in the morning, clear out
Speaker 1: of your high fifty six partley cloudie over Saturday night
Speaker 1: thirty two for the low and then rain and storms
Speaker 1: and maybe severe weather on Sunday fifty five for the
Speaker 1: high end. Right now thirty degrees in time for traffic
Speaker 1: from the UCUT Traffic Center.

Speaker 1: Station at seven twenty three. If you buy a car,
Speaker 1: see de talk station. Yeah, I hope you're not traveling
Speaker 1: to London's Heathrow Airport. Is a massive fire that's shut
Speaker 1: down the entire airport that was widely reported before the
Speaker 1: show started this morning apparently still going on. He throws
Speaker 1: shut down all day, thousands of flight or fifteen hundred
Speaker 1: or so flights canceled, and that Internet that impacts global travel.
Speaker 1: So anyhow, a lot of people had to be evacuated
Speaker 1: from the area. An invitation to barley Corn's brew House
Speaker 1: in Wilder, Kentucky that'll be listened to the next listener
Speaker 1: in lunch April second, and an opportunity for some fellowship
Speaker 1: get out of the house, support a local restaurant and brewery,
Speaker 1: enjoy yours still some really good food and the fellowship.
Speaker 1: Is the reason I bring that up because I see
Speaker 1: there's a UN poll. Yes, I know it's from the UN. Nonetheless,
Speaker 1: United States fell to its lowest happiness rank ever due
Speaker 1: to a rise in the number of Americans eating their
Speaker 1: meals alone at least one of the factors that was
Speaker 1: contributed to the rank down to twenty fourth place in
Speaker 1: the globe. Our highest showing was eleven. They've been doing
Speaker 1: this report since twenty twelve. For its part, we're doing
Speaker 1: a lot better than Afghanistan ranked is the unhappiest country
Speaker 1: in the world, I think again. And then Finland described
Speaker 1: as the world's happiest country for the eighth consecutive year
Speaker 1: according to this what is called World Happiness Report, Happiness
Speaker 1: rankings based on a three year average of individual's self
Speaker 1: assessed evaluation of life's satisfaction, as well as GDP per
Speaker 1: capita social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom, generosity, and corruption. Well,
Speaker 1: I could circle a few words in that litanine describe
Speaker 1: maybe why we're going down in the happiness rankings anyway,
Speaker 1: But if eating together, and they did cite that specifically
Speaker 1: and held that out as one of the things, it's
Speaker 1: where we come together. The number of people of dining
Speaker 1: alone in the United States, they say, is increase fifty
Speaker 1: three percent over the past couple of decades, noting that
Speaker 1: sharing meals is strongly linked with well being. And maybe
Speaker 1: that's why I always have such a great time and
Speaker 1: get to meet the listeners. You're all just a bunch
Speaker 1: of fabulous people. It just reaffirms my belief in that
Speaker 1: great conversations, smiles on people's faces, getting out of the house,
Speaker 1: going to a place you'd never been to, it's all fun.
Speaker 1: So market down in your calendar. April second, it's four

Speaker 1: Ohio marijuana enthusiasts apparently brought their own marijuana to the
Speaker 1: Ohio State House orly to prevent Republican lawmakers from passing
Speaker 1: proposed restrictions on the recreational weed. Right a joint on that. Well,
Speaker 1: apparently our elected officials in Columbus do at least the
Speaker 1: quantity anyway, if you're twenty one years older here in
Speaker 1: Ohio right now, you can smoke, vape and just marijuana individually,
Speaker 1: you can grow up to six plans. But if you
Speaker 1: live in a household with others, you can grow up
Speaker 1: to twelve. Man that's a lot of weed anyhow, whatever, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but the two and a half marijuana two and a
Speaker 1: half ounces of marijuana in all forms except for concentrates,
Speaker 1: you only have fifteen grams of lows. The law gives
Speaker 1: ten percent of the tax revenue from each marijuana sale
Speaker 1: to four different venues, including thirty six percent to something
Speaker 1: called a social justice equity or social equity fund to
Speaker 1: help people disproportionately impacted by marijuana related laws. I don't
Speaker 1: even know what that means. Sounds like a big ten
Speaker 1: to put your hand in and grab money. Anyway, thirty
Speaker 1: six percent to host cities, ones that have dispensaries, and
Speaker 1: twenty five percent to state's Mental Health Addiction Services Department. Finally,
Speaker 1: three percent to the state's Cannabis Control Department. Well, senates
Speaker 1: already passed legislation. Senate President Rob McCauley from Napoleon believes
Speaker 1: the voters didn't really know what everything that was that
Speaker 1: they were voting for. He said Senate Bill fifty six
Speaker 1: should be signed to law. This which has already passed,
Speaker 1: makes dozens of restrictions of the cannabis access. Most notably
Speaker 1: limits THCHC content and reduces home growing to six total plants.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I don't know how they test this in the field,
Speaker 1: but if you, especially if you're grown at home, the
Speaker 1: psychoactive cannabinoid THHC would be capped at one hundred milligrams
Speaker 1: per package. I guess that said license or authorized dispensaries
Speaker 1: also primarily reduces the allowable THHC levels and adult use
Speaker 1: extracts from a maximum of ninety percent down to seventy percent.
Speaker 1: I guess you just take more of it, huh. Any
Speaker 1: other type of marijuana product like the edibles would be
Speaker 1: limited ten milligram for serving in one hundred milligrams per package.
Speaker 1: They eliminated the social equity fund that I just mentioned,
Speaker 1: so that's gone in this bill. House bill won sixty
Speaker 1: similar but it keeps homegrowing the same at twelve plants.
Speaker 1: Finance House Chair of Brian Stewart Nashville disagrees with McCauley
Speaker 1: on the home grow, saying, listen, it's already been legal
Speaker 1: for two years, so it doesn't make sense to change it.
Speaker 1: I think exercising a measure of common sense in the
Speaker 1: real world. Folks who are growing twelve plants today are
Speaker 1: not likely to grow less than twelve plants just because
Speaker 1: we passed the law in the state House. Well, you
Speaker 1: can say that about a lot of laws, can't you. Anyway,
Speaker 1: it does reduce THHC just like the Senate bill, cy
Speaker 1: see the same amount. I believe, unlike the other chamber
Speaker 1: of House would not limit the number of milligrams in
Speaker 1: a package a closed container would pick up at a dispensary,
Speaker 1: while the Senate caps at one hundred milligrams, keeps the
Speaker 1: excise tax at ten percent, changes where the revenue goes,
Speaker 1: putting it directly into the Marijuana Receipts Fund which was
Speaker 1: created to which is created in the State Treasure's office.
Speaker 1: It will be able to earn investment in the state,
Speaker 1: will be able to manage tax refunds as needed. Joe's
Speaker 1: little Jaden cynical and skeptical about that one. Hut, Joe, Eh,
Speaker 1: just like the railroad fund anyway. Senate Bill one passed
Speaker 1: out of the High House Representatives fifty eight to thirty four,
Speaker 1: largely long party lines. It would eliminate diversity equity inclusion
Speaker 1: programs and scholarships, prohibit faculty from striking p prohibit universities
Speaker 1: from taking positions on controversial beliefs, and allow tenured professors
Speaker 1: to be fired after reviews. There's a quick turnaround on
Speaker 1: that one. So if you don't follow the new law,
Speaker 1: then you lose is your state funding at your university.
Speaker 1: It's a lot more complex than the litany I just
Speaker 1: gave you, but I do believe in the taking positions
Speaker 1: on controversial beliefs. They may run into a First Amendment
Speaker 1: issue on that, but keep your popcorn out. I'm sure
Speaker 1: someone's gonna file suit seven thirty five. If you five

Speaker 1: let's talk to Rob. Rob was kind of to the
Speaker 1: call this morning. Rob. Welcome to the program. Happy Friday
Speaker 1: to you, Bright, Happy Friday.
Speaker 6: I had a question about the bills that you're talking
Speaker 6: about with the marijuana usage. What in them prevents the
Speaker 6: second hand from anyone who's wandered want around the streets
Speaker 6: with him? I mean, we passed the smoking band to
Speaker 6: prevent secondhand smoked from affecting people.
Speaker 1: What about this, Well, from what I hear, it's it's
Speaker 1: waft The fumes are wafting around everywhere, So I guess
Speaker 1: it's something we're just gonna be used to. I don't
Speaker 1: think you can can't you can't legally smoke weed in
Speaker 1: a bar. I don't think because those are no smoking establishments.
Speaker 1: But you know they do have those hookah bars. How
Speaker 1: did the hookah bars get around that Vand he asked
Speaker 1: out loud, No, I wouldn't know.
Speaker 6: Either a friend of mine or she, you know, gets
Speaker 6: stubble with migraines being around that crap.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, it's it. You know, this is a
Speaker 1: societal problem we'll have to live with.
Speaker 2: But I I am.
Speaker 1: I'm under the belief, although I can't say definitively that
Speaker 1: there are restrictions about where you can smoke weed much
Speaker 1: in the same way there are restrictions about where you
Speaker 1: can smoke cigarettes and cigars. So I don't think you're
Speaker 1: gonna have to be dealing with it at the ballpark. Uh,
Speaker 1: maybe other outdoor areas where it's already where smoking is
Speaker 1: already restricted. But not a definitive expert on the topic,
Speaker 1: my friend, really truly not. But it's a good point though,
Speaker 1: because I trust me Rob, I have heard so many
Speaker 1: people complain about having to deal with the marijuana smell.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we had friends in California and
Speaker 1: they complain about it, and you read articles about it.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, this is twenty four to seven.
Speaker 1: You live in an apartment building. You're gonna be able
Speaker 1: to smell the weed that's being smoked in the department
Speaker 1: next door to you, like cigarette. So I'm sure we'll
Speaker 1: ultimately work it out as time moves forward. Rob, So,
Speaker 1: I don't think you're going to get a contact buzz though.
Speaker 1: You have to be like in the Specoli van from
Speaker 1: Fast Times at Ridgemont High to get a contact buzz
Speaker 1: from being in close proximity to it. But yeah, it
Speaker 1: may very well cause a headache for you. In legal news,
Speaker 1: some good news out of New York. Justice prevails. New
Speaker 1: York's highest court dealt the final blow in an attempt
Speaker 1: by state Democrats to extend voting rights to nearly a
Speaker 1: million foreign nationals immigrants. Let's see. Democrats on a fifty
Speaker 1: one member New York City Council back in January of
Speaker 1: twenty two approved an ordinance giving more than eight hundred
Speaker 1: thousand foreign nationals with green cards, visas, and work permits
Speaker 1: the option to vote in the citywide elections so long
Speaker 1: as they have resided in the city for at least
Speaker 1: thirty consecutive days. Lawsuits were filed New York Supreme Court,
Speaker 1: that's the appellate court in New York and twenty two
Speaker 1: ruled that giving local voting rights to foreign nationals violated
Speaker 1: the state's constitution, which explicitly reserves voting for American citizens.
Speaker 1: Read the language for yourself, it says citizens. In February,
Speaker 1: that ruling upheld by New York Appellate Division. Thursday, State
Speaker 1: of New York Court of Appeals, which is their supreme court,
Speaker 1: ruled that the ordinance is unconstitutional because the state Constitution,
Speaker 1: in the opinions word makes clear what our case law
Speaker 1: has long held. Article two, Section one restricts voting to citizens.
Speaker 1: They pointed out that that Article two has been amended
Speaker 1: several times since eighteen ninety four when first passed, but
Speaker 1: the citizens requirement has always been There no evidence that
Speaker 1: any of the amendments subsequent changed the understanding that a
Speaker 1: voter must be a citizen to vote in New York.
Speaker 1: Whatever the future may bring, the New York Constitution as
Speaker 1: it stands today draws a firm line restricting voting to citizens. Accordingly,
Speaker 1: the Court of Pella Division, insofar as appealed from, should
Speaker 1: be modified without costs, in accordance with this opinion. So done,
Speaker 1: Isn't it interesting? You have that very clear language and
Speaker 1: the case law supporting that you needed to be a citizen.
Speaker 1: Yet the City of New York itself decided they were
Speaker 1: going to ignore the law and pass their own law,
Speaker 1: knowing full well that it contradicted case law on the
Speaker 1: books and the very language of their own constitution, a
Speaker 1: constitution that I assure you each elected official held their
Speaker 1: hand up and swore an oath of allegiance and a
Speaker 1: promise to uphold what's in it. Oh, look, firearms making

Speaker 19: Friday, Good morning, good morning. Today we're looking for Sean Kidder.
Speaker 19: He's wanted on five counts of arson. This is in

Speaker 1: in the Cincinni Police Department. Have a wonderful weekend. We'll
Speaker 1: look for him and drop a dime on him if
Speaker 1: we find him. Let's see here all that's going on
Speaker 1: with the Department of Education. Of course, Trump's trying to
Speaker 1: wind it down and ordering the department head to start
Speaker 1: winding things down and it's not going to impact really
Speaker 1: anything that will effect your life, except that may get
Speaker 1: rid of the strings attached to the federal dollars that
Speaker 1: will still flow to your state schools cutting out giant
Speaker 1: chunks of the employees there because they're unnecessary. A lot
Speaker 1: of them look over forms that your school district's forced
Speaker 1: to fill out to make sure you're complying with diversity, equity, inclusion,
Speaker 1: and critical race theory and doctrination teachings. While your children's
Speaker 1: test scores plummet. So Department Education already laid offers, preparing
Speaker 1: to fire some thirteen hundred workers, another six hundred accepting buyouts.
Speaker 1: They had about forty one hundred employees before the move.
Speaker 1: So getting rid of the fat and hopefully benefiting you
Speaker 1: in the final analysis, but pivoting over this is already
Speaker 1: was tried in California, unfortunately it got shot down, But
Speaker 1: Illinois is getting ready to invade your homeschools. I talked
Speaker 1: to Steve Schuemach earlier in the program about his new
Speaker 1: trilogy book series or trilogy book series fantasy series it is,
Speaker 1: but his wife Tay I used to join the fifty
Speaker 1: five Case morning show regularly to talk about homeschool and
Speaker 1: she was at just an early pioneer in homeschooling and
Speaker 1: just got together all kinds of resources. And that's what
Speaker 1: a lot of people are turning to. Feeling the local
Speaker 1: schools have failed them, they go off on their own
Speaker 1: and quite with a lot of success statistically. So California
Speaker 1: activists are warning Illinois families about a build that's advancing
Speaker 1: through the Illinois state legislator that would create more regulations
Speaker 1: and penalties underscore get to that moment for homeschooling parents.
Speaker 1: One advocate out in California, Sonya Shaw, reported by Fox
Speaker 1: News Illinois, California, Colorado. They all compete with each other.
Speaker 1: They're coming for homeschooling just like they've been coming after
Speaker 1: public schools. They're attacking families, stripping parental rights and pushing
Speaker 1: their radical agendas while our kids are failing at reading, writing,
Speaker 1: and math. It's called HB twenty eight twenty seven Illinois,
Speaker 1: a Homeschool Act, which would charge parents with a misdemeanor
Speaker 1: if they fail to register their kids in a homeschool
Speaker 1: declaration form. That's what's called in the language, to the
Speaker 1: nearest public school that they otherwise would be attending. If
Speaker 1: you don't do it, they call your child a truant
Speaker 1: and your and you as a parent could face up
Speaker 1: the thirty days in jail with fines. Passed out of
Speaker 1: the Democratic dominated dominated House Education Committee and a party
Speaker 1: line this past Wednesday, in spite of the fact that
Speaker 1: fifty thousand and witness slips were filed in opposition and
Speaker 1: only one thousand filed in support of this that's according
Speaker 1: to the Illinois State Board of Education, so not exactly
Speaker 1: representing their constituents. Opponents point out that this bill would
Speaker 1: have mandated all homeschooling families and states to adhere to
Speaker 1: involuntary home inspections. Well Estrada, senior counselor for the Homeschool
Speaker 1: Legal Defense Association, speaking with Fox News, said that the
Speaker 1: bill's language was left open ended for unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats
Speaker 1: to be able to write different sections of regulations. That
Speaker 1: if this bill has passed into law, it's going to
Speaker 1: be expanded in the future years to put even more
Speaker 1: restrictions on homeschool and private school families. The record of
Speaker 1: homeschoolers shows that we do academically and socially and emotionally well,
Speaker 1: so why are we messing with them, that's the question.
Speaker 1: This bill is a solution in search of a problem. Now,
Speaker 1: for their part, Democrats say the bill which contains a
Speaker 1: poortion that requires parents to hand over teaching materials if
Speaker 1: it's suspected the child isn't being educated properly, and it's
Speaker 1: left outside entities and other individuals, outside the realm of accountability.
Speaker 1: In other words, unelected officials to decide whether you are
Speaker 1: educating your child properly. Hmmm, religious education going on in there.
Speaker 1: They may view that as improper. It could be literally anything. Oh,
Speaker 1: you don't have a diversity, equity inclusion program in your curriculum.
Speaker 1: You need to put one of those in there. Why
Speaker 1: are they tinkering and messing with parents' rights? The government's
Speaker 1: tentacles reaching in beyond your front door and residing in
Speaker 1: your home. Knock on the front door, but you need
Speaker 1: to let us in. Your homeschooler, evil homeschooler. I hope
Speaker 1: this gets shot down. But it's Illinois. It's Illinois, so
Speaker 1: I think you can see the writing is on the wall.
Speaker 1: That is, of course, if someone was not educated in
Speaker 1: a public school and know how to write. Five Krcity

Speaker 1: his race for the mayor city of Cincinnati as a Republican.
Speaker 1: Every time I say that out loud, there's a Republican
Speaker 1: running for a mayor in the city of Cincinnati named
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman, is like, yeah, Okay, we know you got
Speaker 1: a little bit of an uphill challenge, but maybe not
Speaker 1: as much as I think people's initial reaction might be. Corey,
Speaker 1: welcome back, man. It's great seeing you. Hey, great, thanks
Speaker 1: for having me my pleasure. I let's start with the debate.
Speaker 1: I have in my notes that it looks like you
Speaker 1: were scheduled to have a debate with purvol next week.
Speaker 20: Yeah, So as far as what we've been told is
Speaker 20: that all three candidates have agreed to do the debate
Speaker 20: March twenty fifth.
Speaker 1: We're just waiting on the terms right now.
Speaker 20: So if anybody from the Inquirer is listening, you know,
Speaker 20: they said that they were going to have it to
Speaker 20: us last week and so we would greatly appreciate those terms.
Speaker 1: And I know you want it to be streamed live,
Speaker 1: and this day and age, I can't think of a
Speaker 1: single justifiable reason why it wouldn't be streamed live.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 20: The biggest thing about this campaign has to be transparency,
Speaker 20: you know, getting the word out on what all three
Speaker 20: candidates represent and then letting.
Speaker 1: People have the choice, well, will this debate be open
Speaker 1: to the public. That's what we're being told. Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: so one of the terms that you don't quite know that,
Speaker 1: but at least it's been initially told. Anything else along
Speaker 1: the terms of conditions lines have got you concerned or
Speaker 1: that you're insisting on that might be interesting.
Speaker 20: I think the biggest thing is the transparency of the
Speaker 20: live streaming, just making sure that people are able to attend,
Speaker 20: people can hear all the sides of it. And then
Speaker 20: were the terms of the questioning and how that how
Speaker 20: that format's gonna go, and.
Speaker 1: It will be conducted by the Inquirer staff. That's what
Speaker 1: I'm being told.
Speaker 20: Yeah, this is my first rodeo with it, but it's
Speaker 20: not my first first rodeo with dealing with people.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So at the same time, your ministry is it requires
Speaker 1: you to be involved with people all of the time.
Speaker 1: And what's on the campaign trail, you've been out meeting people,
Speaker 1: and of course owner of a business, you meet people
Speaker 1: all the time. So it shouldn't be too much of
Speaker 1: a struggle. Do you know if you're gonna get the
Speaker 1: questions ahead of time? Are they going to provide advanced
Speaker 1: questions or are you just gonna fly by your seat
Speaker 1: of your pants?
Speaker 2: Not for sure?
Speaker 20: These are things that Yeah, that's basically what we're being told, right,
Speaker 20: you know which day of the week it is next week,
Speaker 20: as far as we're told, March twenty fifth. All right, well,
Speaker 20: I got my popcorn out. I'm looking forward to seeing
Speaker 20: how you do.
Speaker 1: How you do because I think everybody can admit out
Speaker 1: of the mold of like a Gavin Newsom, you know,
Speaker 1: I have to have parvol is a pretty polished guy.
Speaker 1: He comes across as a really slick and I think
Speaker 1: perhaps too slow, just like Evian Newsom. You know, you
Speaker 1: just like, wait a second, it's just not something right,
Speaker 1: And at least that's my impression. Apologies that you met
Speaker 1: Aftab Purple. You can make all the fun you want
Speaker 1: of of how I look, but well.
Speaker 20: No, if you lit'st see. I met him for the
Speaker 20: first time several nights ago. Oh really, yeah, it was
Speaker 20: a very very nice conversation. The funny thing was is
Speaker 20: that I was walking to meet mister Brad or Colonel
Speaker 20: Brad's wind strip, getting great advice from him. He's a
Speaker 20: great man. And so on the way there, Mayor Aftab
Speaker 20: was coming down the stairs and so I was just like, yeah,
Speaker 20: of course I want to meet him. And then this
Speaker 20: young guy came up to me and said, hey, can
Speaker 20: you take a picture of me with Mayor Aftab?
Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, for sure. So I'm sitting
Speaker 1: there holding the camera taking a picture.
Speaker 20: But then as soon as as soon as that interaction
Speaker 20: is done, I shake Mayor Aftab's hand. I just said,
Speaker 20: you did an amazing job speaking tonight, and it's just
Speaker 20: very kind man.
Speaker 1: So good see. I like your reaction like your attitude
Speaker 1: an animosity zone. But see, but that's that's your nature.
Speaker 1: And again going back to your being a minister, I
Speaker 1: would expect that from you.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
Speaker 20: Well, what I tell people is like he is a
Speaker 20: husband and a father and he's in public service. I
Speaker 20: would assume that people get in public service to help people.
Speaker 20: But based but based what I'm seeing over the last
Speaker 20: four years, I just feel like we're the better candidate.
Speaker 1: Good and a lot of reasons for that. And your
Speaker 1: number one policy pillar, it's Coreybowman dot com bow m
Speaker 1: A and Coreybowman dot com. There's a little donate button
Speaker 1: me upright, Carancorna might encourage my listeners to pay. You
Speaker 1: throw five ten bucks, whatever you can afford. Every little
Speaker 1: bit counts. It all adds up. Get some signed, get
Speaker 1: some merch and get whatever you can. Get the name
Speaker 1: and spread the word responsible money management. We could go
Speaker 1: on for ours about the irresponsible nature of governments, generally speaking,
Speaker 1: most notably the city of Cincinnati. I've been so enlightened
Speaker 1: by the work of Todd Zen's or former Inspector General.
Speaker 1: He watches them like a hawk, and he has revealed
Speaker 1: so much much craziness in terms of where we spend
Speaker 1: our money, and I can go back to the streetcar,
Speaker 1: which costs US five plus million dollars a year for
Speaker 1: debt service as well as maintenance, rarely used. I don't
Speaker 1: think it serves society a benefit at all. But there's
Speaker 1: that there's the deteriorating roads that we all face all
Speaker 1: the time. In fact, West Side Jim Kiefer Corey came
Speaker 1: into or called up today and said he's going to
Speaker 1: invite or has invited the mayor and all of the
Speaker 1: council members to an event that's being held up at
Speaker 1: Price Hill Chili. So they have to take Sunset Avenue
Speaker 1: and drive over it. It's my favorite team Sunset is
Speaker 1: it's my best illustration of a street that looks like
Speaker 1: it's been torn out of a war torn area like
Speaker 1: Gaza or something, and it's never been fixed and it's
Speaker 1: been years and years. Forced them to drive over it,
Speaker 1: which will be a great idea, but it just is
Speaker 1: an illustration of infrastructure falling ap hard. They don't take
Speaker 1: care of what they've got. They want to build something new,
Speaker 1: like the skateboard park.
Speaker 2: Response.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think that whenever I first started the campaign.
Speaker 20: I was asking people were the most important issues that
Speaker 20: you have on your heart when it comes to the
Speaker 20: city of Cincinnati. And there's a lot of you know,
Speaker 20: hot topic issues. There's a lot of things that people
Speaker 20: care about, but I'll tell you that the majority of them,
Speaker 20: as I looked at them and as I kind of research,
Speaker 20: I realized that, you know, eighty ninety percent of these
Speaker 20: issues are related to money management. When we talk about
Speaker 20: the infrastructure. See, when it comes to money management and budgeting,
Speaker 20: nobody has a perfect model necessarily, but I will say
Speaker 20: that the most important thing with money management is your priorities.
Speaker 20: What is going to be your priorities, and then whenever
Speaker 20: those priorities are lining up to common sense and helping
Speaker 20: the people, and then no matter what, Yeah, there might
Speaker 20: be certain issues that you want to push like, but
Speaker 20: those things can't take a precedent or can't be first
Speaker 20: above infrastructure and roads and things that really that's what
Speaker 20: the city is responsible for. Yeah, I mean, I go
Speaker 20: back to the broken windows concept. If you take care
Speaker 20: of something and it looks pleasing visually, it looks welcoming
Speaker 20: and accommodating, people are going to want to go there
Speaker 20: or perhaps consider it for business. I mean, you chose
Speaker 20: one of the more difficult neighborhoods to start your business
Speaker 20: over in the West End, right, I mean, and you've
Speaker 20: bettered that neighborhood by providing you know, jobs in at
Speaker 20: least a place where people get a good cup of coffee.
Speaker 20: But it was challenging for you when you did that. Yeah,
Speaker 20: I mean, honestly, I have a co owner that you know,
Speaker 20: whenever he came and visited, he saw the mission of
Speaker 20: our church that's also in the West End as well,
Speaker 20: and we saw the community and basically, you know, when
Speaker 20: you have the mentality like we have, it's you go
Speaker 20: to the places that need help. You don't just go
Speaker 20: to the places that all we're going to obviously it's
Speaker 20: going to be an easy ride there. No, we have
Speaker 20: a mission on our heart to impact the city. And
Speaker 20: when you see the people that are suffering the most,
Speaker 20: that's where you have to do something about it, whether
Speaker 20: it be with church, whether it be with ministry or business,
Speaker 20: whatever it might be.
Speaker 1: Well, and that's got to be music to many neighborhood's
Speaker 1: ears who are often completely overlooked. I mean, the West
Speaker 1: Side is one of them. It's like as if the
Speaker 1: council doesn't even know there is anything exists beyond the
Speaker 1: bridge that needs to be replaced with the viaduct. Right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's where the entire city stops, is right there. It's
Speaker 1: like you go over the edge of the of the
Speaker 1: flat earth.
Speaker 20: Well, what I see is that when people first come
Speaker 20: into Cincinnati, obviously there's certain areas that they visit, and
Speaker 20: on the surface, you know, Cincinnati is a great city.
Speaker 20: I'm not here saying that Cincinnati as a hell hole
Speaker 20: and we're just coming in and fix everything. There's a
Speaker 20: reason why me and my family live here because I
Speaker 20: really believe it's the greatest city on earth. But what
Speaker 20: I feel is that there's many communities that have just
Speaker 20: been forgotten about or not been prioritized just because it
Speaker 20: doesn't fit the Instagram model of our city. It doesn't
Speaker 20: fit the social media model of our city. Oh well,
Speaker 20: we've got to make everything look a certain way, We've
Speaker 20: got to make people believe that we stand for certain issues.
Speaker 20: But yet there's people on the outskirts that there's people
Speaker 20: that are in other districts that are being forgotten.
Speaker 1: About without question, So how is it that Findlay Market
Speaker 1: and that surrounding area got gentrified and had all that
Speaker 1: money put into it to the exclusion of all of
Speaker 1: the other options that are out there in the world.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's some really deteriorating neighborhoods that have some
Speaker 1: amazing houses and ability to rehab and go in and
Speaker 1: you know, if you make it a more welcoming environment
Speaker 1: for business and for that type of project to happen,
Speaker 1: maybe it will and maybe those neighborhoods could be improved
Speaker 1: as well. Coreybowman dot Com. We'll continue with them. We

Speaker 1: answer to the question about live streaming. But there's the
Speaker 1: details and you can find those on my blog page
Speaker 1: at fifty five car se dot com and of course
Speaker 1: this conversation on the podcast page when I'm done talking
Speaker 1: with Corey Bowman who is in studio again, going back
Speaker 1: to Corey Bowman dot com and keeping in with the
Speaker 1: financial conversation. And I love the work that Todd Zenzer
Speaker 1: does because he stays on these guys like white on Rice.
Speaker 1: Budget Finance Committee held a meeting on the seventeenth. Several
Speaker 1: items tabled in the agenda, but they included two proposed
Speaker 1: bond ordinances which will authorize the the City of Cincinnati
Speaker 1: borrow notice the sound of my voice thirty five million dollars.
Speaker 1: Five and a half of it goes to the OTR
Speaker 1: Center Health Center project. The other twenty nine for something
Speaker 1: called the Finley Community Center Project. And I have no
Speaker 1: concept of what those are. And he asked some simple questions, Corey.
Speaker 1: What due diligence was carried out? What are the terms
Speaker 1: of specific of the bonds. There's nothing in there to
Speaker 1: explain what the interest rate is, What do you need?
Speaker 1: Why do you need to issue bonds? He points out, properly,
Speaker 1: the city took in nineteen million dollars more in revenues
Speaker 1: than was budgeted only a few months from the end
Speaker 1: of the fiscal year. Last year, the city had sixty
Speaker 1: five million dollars surplus, And he points out something logical
Speaker 1: that no one really takes into account. The debt service
Speaker 1: on the bond will cost the city millions of dollars
Speaker 1: over time, So why are we borrowing money? And more fundamentally, Corey,
Speaker 1: And here's something that you, as a mayor, would have
Speaker 1: to ride herd over and insist on before these kind
Speaker 1: of proposals come on your in front of you. Todd
Speaker 1: points out the comprehensive financial statement report for fiscal year
Speaker 1: twenty four hasn't even been published yet. He says, before
Speaker 1: you vote on such a sizable bond issue, shouldn't you
Speaker 1: understand the current financial condition of the city, for which
Speaker 1: the financial statement audit will greatly helps? Simple and that
Speaker 1: makes profound sense. No, you're exactly true.
Speaker 20: I think one of the biggest things that you're saying
Speaker 20: there is that the report hasn't been released from last year.
Speaker 1: And you made the point right there. You have to
Speaker 1: know where you are before you can know where you're going.
Speaker 20: And I think that I just use the example of
Speaker 20: like I mean, if you don't know you know where
Speaker 20: you are financially and you just keep on purchasing by
Speaker 20: now on Amazon, then you're just digging yourself more in
Speaker 20: a hole. And many people just assume that we can
Speaker 20: just do this or do that, but no, and I
Speaker 20: think that's the biggest thing when these issues come out,
Speaker 20: like let's say, you know, let's put a new arena in,
Speaker 20: let's do this or that, which are things that we
Speaker 20: agree with, but you have to know where the heck
Speaker 20: are we financially and do we have the ability to
Speaker 20: just set a good foundation to where the decisions that
Speaker 20: we make going forward are actually going to improve us economically,
Speaker 20: like planning ahead.
Speaker 1: For a rainy day. If you think we need a
Speaker 1: new arena, and I know that, you know, I still
Speaker 1: call it the coliseum because I'm old school. I remember
Speaker 1: when the Cincinnati stingers used to play way back when
Speaker 1: we had hockey, but seen many a concert there. But okay,
Speaker 1: so it's old, it's out of date. It could use
Speaker 1: some upgrades, or it could be torn down in something
Speaker 1: rebuilt elsewhere or there. I don't care. But it's going
Speaker 1: to cost a lot of money. We all know that.
Speaker 1: So we don't have it. Now, put a plan in
Speaker 1: place and start saving for it, and we have a
Speaker 1: reserve fund. It's something where you can at least allocate
Speaker 1: the funds and over time see them grow and build.
Speaker 1: Don't spend it on shiny new objects, but still take
Speaker 1: care of the stuff you're responsible for doing, and say, look,
Speaker 1: we've already got it on the list of things we
Speaker 1: plan on doing. We're just not going to dig ourselves
Speaker 1: into a multi million dollar financial hole for decades to
Speaker 1: come servicing bonds when we have lived without a new
Speaker 1: one for a long time and I don't know that
Speaker 1: anybody's gotten hurt because of it. No, it's all about priorities.
Speaker 1: It's all about priorities.
Speaker 20: We're talking about years that we've been sold as a
Speaker 20: city to sell a railroad and to be able to
Speaker 20: put funds forward infrastructure, and then all of a sudden
Speaker 20: you're seeing that a year later where they're holding it
Speaker 20: because you can't just put one point six billion dollars
Speaker 20: into like a money market bank account, right, You've got
Speaker 20: to have someplace. So I understand the concept of putting
Speaker 20: the funds in a place that's going to yield return,
Speaker 20: so that doesn't depreciate. But the reality of it is
Speaker 20: that from what we're seeing, and you had Adam Kohler
Speaker 20: on earlier and you can see the stats on this,
Speaker 20: is that we're seeing maybe a one percent yield on it,
Speaker 20: but the inflation of the cost of this infrastructure keeps
Speaker 20: on going up and up and up, so essentially you're
Speaker 20: losing money every year that you don't put it into
Speaker 20: the infrastructure.
Speaker 1: A great point, and I'm glad you you brought down
Speaker 1: back up because Adam Adam was just very very pointed
Speaker 1: as analysis about that it now costs double the amount
Speaker 1: to fix the road that it did like just a
Speaker 1: year or so ago, because the materials costs have increased. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's a regularly occurring phenomenon, and that just shows
Speaker 1: it's not a priority. It just shows that it's not
Speaker 1: a priority on your list, that there's other things that
Speaker 1: you would rather spend money on focus on rather than
Speaker 1: just going right from day one and just saying let's
Speaker 1: fix the damn roads.
Speaker 2: Yeah, amen to that.
Speaker 1: All Right, it's paused a little bit early in this break,
Speaker 1: and we'll continue with Corey Bowman for a couple more segments.
Speaker 1: Find out what else he's got. He wants the lowered
Speaker 1: regulation in taxes too, something I thoroughly embrace, and that
Speaker 1: would be a magnet for more humanity move in the
Speaker 1: city limits more with Corey after these words.

Speaker 1: happy Friday. Coreybowman dot com. It'shere you find mayoral candidate
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman's website. Opportunity to help out the campaign in
Speaker 1: his U seven policy pillars, which were kind of walking
Speaker 1: through right now briefly got practical housing approach. We have
Speaker 1: talked about this before, Corey, and you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: on face of the simple economic rout of that there's
Speaker 1: a low supplying demand. Some neighborhoods already more demand than others.
Speaker 1: Those obviously have higher home prices, and if you can't
Speaker 1: afford those, that presents an opportunity for maybe some of
Speaker 1: these other neighborhoods with more affordable housing to turn around.
Speaker 1: I remember, and it's turned around a lot over the
Speaker 1: last several decades. Norwood was sort of one of those
Speaker 1: lesser desired communities, but you know, it's blown up. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're right next to Hyde Park, which was always expensive.
Speaker 1: You got Oakley right there, But nor has become a
Speaker 1: desirable place to live. And I think the housing has
Speaker 1: gone up some in price though even a guess anyway,
Speaker 1: But there are other neighborhoods out there who are that
Speaker 1: It seem to be ripe and ready for that type
Speaker 1: of transformation.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 20: I think a big issue with what we're dealing with
Speaker 20: in downtown in the West End area is that you're
Speaker 20: not utilizing some of the best resources in the city,
Speaker 20: and that's your local developers.
Speaker 1: There's local developers.
Speaker 20: You know, builders and investors that might only be able
Speaker 20: to do one or two properties at a time. But
Speaker 20: what we've seen in a lot of these communities is
Speaker 20: that you'll have an initial influx of investors or people
Speaker 20: that want invest in the community. They want to put
Speaker 20: market rate housing, they want to put everything there. But
Speaker 20: then after a while they start getting hindered or they
Speaker 20: start getting choked out by the policies that be because
Speaker 20: it doesn't match up with the zoning. And what we're
Speaker 20: seeing specifically in the West End is a huge disparity
Speaker 20: between the low income government subsidized housing and high income.
Speaker 20: I believe the current statistics right now is that we're
Speaker 20: over eighty percent government subsidized housing in the West End.
Speaker 20: And so when you see that, there's no really ground
Speaker 20: for that middle class, that middle ground, and you're actually
Speaker 20: hindering everybody that's in that affordable housing because they.
Speaker 1: Have no option to get out of it right well,
Speaker 1: and I think there is a in many cases well
Speaker 1: deserved reputation that if you don't own your property and
Speaker 1: you are in a subsidized resident regardless of circumstance, that
Speaker 1: you don't tend to take care of it and neighborhoods
Speaker 1: can deteriorate, and I understand how that can happen. It's
Speaker 1: not my place, and I'm not going to paint the walls,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to fix the floors. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to do the plumbing. I got to wait for some
Speaker 1: perhaps absentee landlord to come in and deal with that.
Speaker 1: And most like the city of City's infrastructure, the place
Speaker 1: starts deteriorating over time and devaluating the existing homes that
Speaker 1: are in the neighborhood. So it's a it's a vicious
Speaker 1: downward spiral. You know, We've had a problem with absentee
Speaker 1: landlords in the city forever. Yeah.
Speaker 20: And when I mean when I say like local developers,
Speaker 20: I'm not talking about like people that come in from
Speaker 20: ol state or out of the country to do it rehab.
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's so many people that are wanting to
Speaker 1: do this.
Speaker 20: Case in point is people that own our coffee shop
Speaker 20: building like that is just an amazing building that has
Speaker 20: residents of young people that live in the city, that
Speaker 20: work in the city. And for the most part, it's
Speaker 20: they're getting a market rate. They're getting a fair value
Speaker 20: on their whether it be rent or whether the utilities,
Speaker 20: whatever that might be, and the g a chance to
Speaker 20: kind of live in the city and to be able
Speaker 20: to contribute to the city in that way. And then
Speaker 20: but if you, like I said, if you have eighty
Speaker 20: percent or above in affordable housing, even if you say
Speaker 20: that there's some people that don't take care of their
Speaker 20: residents wherever, when you have that as the majority, there
Speaker 20: is no way that they're going to get out of
Speaker 20: that system.
Speaker 1: There's no way at all. And of course I am
Speaker 1: certain even though it's affordable housing under whatever definition you
Speaker 1: want to use, that the property taxes probably still went
Speaker 1: up along with everybody else, taking away available some of
Speaker 1: income to maybe put a cut of paint on that.
Speaker 20: And you're exactly right on the supply and demand too,
Speaker 20: like a lot of the policies or the zoning restrictions
Speaker 20: are hindering these properties from becoming livable residents. And so
Speaker 20: if we just free up the policies and just say, hey,
Speaker 20: let's let people build, let's let people flood the market
Speaker 20: with housing, the crisis might not even be there if
Speaker 20: you actually have housing available for people and let people
Speaker 20: decide for themselves rather than having this overlord of oh no,
Speaker 20: we can only have these buildings the way that we
Speaker 20: want because this is our vision for the city. No,
Speaker 20: it's for the residents of Cincinnati to dictate that.
Speaker 1: I agree completely on that. And I want to ask
Speaker 1: you real quick, because I'm thinking along the lines of transportation.
Speaker 1: Is there a lack of public transportation in that particular area?
Speaker 1: I mean, would it benefit from more frequent metro stops
Speaker 1: and that kind of thing to help people try and
Speaker 1: get back and forth to their jobs or whatever they
Speaker 1: need to be in that area.
Speaker 20: You have a very significant you know, bus route that
Speaker 20: goes down Lynn Street, and so you have stops every stop.
Speaker 20: You have it from the Metro, from the city, you know,
Speaker 20: public transportation, and so you see it there and then
Speaker 20: people are able to kind of get buy through that.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 20: You know, there's obviously, I think better ways that you
Speaker 20: can structure the roads or structure the parking or anything
Speaker 20: like that as well. But for the most part, people
Speaker 20: can get to Lynn Street in our area fairly quickly
Speaker 20: to get on a bus route.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, so you just put in a plug
Speaker 1: for your community. Look, we've got good transportation, public transportation.
Speaker 1: It's readily available for us. Yeah, come on in the
Speaker 1: water's fine. What do you think, I mean, keep it
Speaker 1: with the West End four we part company there for
Speaker 1: this segment. What in your estimation does it I mean
Speaker 1: we talked about housing, of course, but any what else
Speaker 1: do you think it needs? I mean, if there was
Speaker 1: an if you were an investor and you were considering
Speaker 1: the West End, and you had an unlimited plate of
Speaker 1: things that you might want to build or create or businesses,
Speaker 1: what do you think it's in need of that might
Speaker 1: bring about some greater success for the community.
Speaker 20: Well, I think the model of our building is actually
Speaker 20: fairly successful. What is that you have a space underneath
Speaker 20: that can be zoned for a business, and then you
Speaker 20: have let's say four or five units above that can
Speaker 20: be rented out to residents that live in the city,
Speaker 20: that want to work in the city, that want to
Speaker 20: thrive in the city. And so there's so many properties
Speaker 20: in the West End like that, like that, but they're
Speaker 20: sitting vacant. I personally know a building that I talked
Speaker 20: to the investor. He's put one point two million dollars
Speaker 20: into this property and they haven't done one thing to
Speaker 20: the building because it's all about cutting, you know, red
Speaker 20: tape and trying to figure out where they can get
Speaker 20: it zoned at, and it's negotiating with the powers that
Speaker 20: be that own it to try to figure out whether
Speaker 20: it matches with their vision of the community. And I'm
Speaker 20: telling you that happens so much throughout our cities where
Speaker 20: you have investors, you have people that want this business,
Speaker 20: that want businesses to thrive, that want the community to thrive,
Speaker 20: and they're being held back businesses like local markets are
Speaker 20: a grocery store or anything like that. And you can
Speaker 20: make the argument that all, well, it's not a good
Speaker 20: community to put those businesses in. No, Like I'm a
Speaker 20: case in point. I know that it might not be
Speaker 20: the best community to put the business in, but you
Speaker 20: put in. And there's a video that actually released just
Speaker 20: two months ago from a major you know, podcaster that
Speaker 20: visited the West End and they were interviewing people and
Speaker 20: the people specifically said, this Bay Miller block right here
Speaker 20: was where all the I did.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, you can't spell out first words either,
Speaker 1: So yeah, and don't do that at the debate with UH,
Speaker 1: just try to help you a lot. That's okay. Say
Speaker 1: I'm not the one that wrote the rules. I don't
Speaker 1: make them up. I don't even just write them down.
Speaker 1: I just got to apologize for that. So anyhow, that's okay.
Speaker 1: But people will do it and want to do it.
Speaker 1: It's if you build it, they will come. You're confident
Speaker 1: about that. But there are powers that be that are
Speaker 1: standing in the way with all these rules and regulations
Speaker 1: because whatever rule, whatever mindset they have, what the community
Speaker 1: should look like in their mind doesn't fit with the business.
Speaker 20: Yeah, and the block that we're in they called the
Speaker 20: Bay Miller Block, and there was a lot of stuff
Speaker 20: that went down there, and they said, if you came
Speaker 20: here ten years ago versus now, it's unrecognizable because this
Speaker 20: isn't where the stuff goes down anymore. This isn't where
Speaker 20: the crime goes down anymore. And it's because there was
Speaker 20: developers that got in early and that developed town homes
Speaker 20: or businesses there and then us you know, having the
Speaker 20: coffee shop there, and so it's not like the most
Speaker 20: you know, filled up block as far as businesses go.
Speaker 1: What it's like the broken windows here at the exactly four,
Speaker 1: you don't have broken windows. You got businesses that are
Speaker 1: in operation, and the bad guys don't hang out there anymore.
Speaker 1: They moved a few blocks down the road. We'll continue
Speaker 1: with Corey Bowman after these brief words. I hope you
Speaker 1: can stick around.

Speaker 1: The Enquirer Debate is next week twenty fifth. We're taking
Speaker 1: place at Covedale Center for Performing Arts on Glenway Avenue
Speaker 1: beginning at seven pm. It's a free event open to
Speaker 1: the public. You two see what our contrasts I have
Speaker 1: to have provoll with Corey Bowman and also Brian frank
Speaker 1: So show up to that. We're gonna helpe it live streams.
Speaker 1: We're trying to Corey's been trying to find out if
Speaker 1: that is OAKA, I mean if that if that's something
Speaker 1: it was one of his terms that he'd liked to
Speaker 1: have as a live feed, so no one can sort
Speaker 1: of edit it after the fact, Corey something like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just exactly. It's continuing the transparency, all right. I know
Speaker 1: you're a fan of the Eastern Saint Police Department. Yes,
Speaker 1: you're not a detractor, You're not a defund the police
Speaker 1: kind of guy, and I would expect that you would,
Speaker 1: in a role as mayor, be an outspoken supporter of
Speaker 1: them and regularly bring it to the public's attention what
Speaker 1: they're doing. Because what always bothers me, Even if they're
Speaker 1: not actively opposing police like they used to be doing uncounsel,
Speaker 1: they're not out there supporting the police either, and there
Speaker 1: is you know, the silence on that is deafening. I
Speaker 1: think the police, from a morale standpoint would like to
Speaker 1: hear the elected officials support them. I think, you know,
Speaker 1: putting money where the mouth is and rather than doing this,
Speaker 1: I don't know, what is that program where they have
Speaker 1: non police officers responding to what three to one one
Speaker 1: calls or nine to one one calls, and I think
Speaker 1: those resources should be more allocated to the police department.
Speaker 1: And that sprung from the defund the police effort too,
Speaker 1: if I recall correctly, Corey.
Speaker 20: Yeah, So when we talk about the police department, I just,
Speaker 20: you know, kind of grew up just knowing that they're
Speaker 20: there to protect and serve obviously, and yes there's issues
Speaker 20: that you might see with certain individuals, but overall they're
Speaker 20: there for the community. And we have a coffee shop.
Speaker 20: We have police officers coming into our shop regularly. We
Speaker 20: speak with them, and before I knew a lot about
Speaker 20: these issues, I would just have these conversations and I
Speaker 20: would just realize that there is this disparity between the
Speaker 20: city support versus you know, what the police officers actually
Speaker 20: do and the training that goes behind it and their
Speaker 20: lives being on the line. This is something that we
Speaker 20: have to set as This is the culture that we
Speaker 20: have in city Hall, is that we support the police department,
Speaker 20: that we support our officers and the fire department that
Speaker 20: lay their lives down for our citizens. And then through that,
Speaker 20: whether it be with funding and whether it be through
Speaker 20: policies that put that into their hands rather than just
Speaker 20: trying to divide this into all this is what the
Speaker 20: community looks like. You know, non emergency, you know responders
Speaker 20: that they're really on your side. But if there is emergency,
Speaker 20: then we send out these people that aren't really on
Speaker 20: your side. That can't be No, it can't And like say, well,
Speaker 20: what's the big deal.
Speaker 1: Whether council says good things about the police or not,
Speaker 1: it serves to facilitate a better relationship with between people
Speaker 1: who otherwise might want to cooperate with the police department,
Speaker 1: might be afraid to cooperate with the police department, and
Speaker 1: yet nonetheless want to have a police presence to keep
Speaker 1: the bad guys out of their neighborhood. It's like an
Speaker 1: irreconcilible position. Yeah, you want us thereby, you hate us,
Speaker 1: you want us thereby. You won't drop a dime on
Speaker 1: the bad guy that you know committed the crime. You
Speaker 1: won't show us where the hidden gun is. That's the
Speaker 1: multi use gun.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 1: If this council would engage and be more proactive with
Speaker 1: that kind of positive discussion, maybe more people out of
Speaker 1: the various communities would put down this mindset the police,
Speaker 1: bad police, evil police, racist, Ignore that mantra that has
Speaker 1: been preached by so many of these non governmental outside
Speaker 1: organizations and race baiters, and help serve their own community better.
Speaker 20: No, absolutely, if you want to see safe streets, I'm
Speaker 20: telling you this right now. The people that live in
Speaker 20: these neighborhoods, they want to see safe streets. They want
Speaker 20: to see the police actively involved in picking up the
Speaker 20: crime in their communities. They're actually begging for. But a
Speaker 20: lot of these police officers, I'll tell you this, the
Speaker 20: morale for the police officers are very low as well,
Speaker 20: because even if they do arrest, you know what's coming.
Speaker 20: Then what happens is that you have judges and people
Speaker 20: on the post end of it that are going to
Speaker 20: limit or not eliminate, but they're going to release.
Speaker 1: These People's one of those exact CEM offenders.
Speaker 20: And I'm telling you I heard that directly from their mouths.
Speaker 20: That's not a talking point that I'm just copying pasting
Speaker 20: from a policy. That is, as I'm talking with individuals
Speaker 20: that are in the Cincinnati Police Force that have been
Speaker 20: on there for thirteen, fifteen, seventeen years, they're saying that
Speaker 20: there's a morale that's lowering in their police department because
Speaker 20: they're like, why are we going to arrest people if
Speaker 20: they're just going to be released on the street right after?
Speaker 1: It's not worth the paperwork. I mean I understand that
Speaker 1: all day long. I mean, what's the point? And then
Speaker 1: it's much like California when they decriminalize shoplifting up the
Speaker 1: nine hundred and fifty bucks, Look what happened. The place
Speaker 1: goes to hell in a handbasket. This is, in fact,
Speaker 1: almost like passing legislation decriminalizing certain activity. If it's not
Speaker 1: over a big level offense like murder or rape or
Speaker 1: incest or child molestation or something like that, then they're
Speaker 1: gonna walk.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, I've seen people released on unrecognizance bond that
Speaker 1: we're in possession of a firearm. Don't we have a
Speaker 1: gun violence problem? They keep claiming in this city.
Speaker 20: No, And it's even with smaller charges as well, because
Speaker 20: the reality of it is that there's issues that go
Speaker 20: on throughout the city, whether it be from you call
Speaker 20: it a non emergency versus a major emergency. That is
Speaker 20: the job of the Cincinnati Police Department. They are there
Speaker 20: to monitor, to protect and serve, and this is why
Speaker 20: we have them in our city. And you're essentially tying
Speaker 20: their hands and just telling them, oh, don't do this,
Speaker 20: don't do that. And a police force cannot be afraid
Speaker 20: to do their job, and a police force cannot feel
Speaker 20: like their job is meaningless. A police force needs to
Speaker 20: be well funded and well supported by the city. And
Speaker 20: then they need to know that, hey, your city officials
Speaker 20: that hire you, that do this, that they have your back.
Speaker 1: I think city council people and the man can also
Speaker 1: be hopefully bring pressure to bear down on the Hamilton
Speaker 1: County Prosecutor's office and the judges in the community and
Speaker 1: highlight and illustrate who's the good judges and who's the
Speaker 1: bad judges, because, for example, you're in front of Judge Silverstein,
Speaker 1: you're pretty much gonna get a walk or a pass.
Speaker 1: From everything I've read, we'll continue one more with Corey
Speaker 1: Bowmen here in studio talking about its mayoral race. It's
Speaker 1: a forty seven right now, fifty about krs. The talk station.
Speaker 1: When it comes to the news, corporate needs you to
Speaker 1: find the differences between this picture and this picture. You
Speaker 1: won't have any trouble finding the differences they're.
Speaker 18: The same picture.
Speaker 2: Every day is different, very different.
Speaker 1: The store is a little bit different. Different things are
Speaker 1: happening every day.
Speaker 16: Every hour is different, So it's a little bit different,
Speaker 16: different from what it was from just an hour ago.
Speaker 1: It's the source, of course, that's always the same, always
Speaker 1: been the same, the same thing. And I like fifty
Speaker 1: five KRC the talk station. Have you ever wondered different?
Speaker 1: One more time for the nine verst Orcan's not bad.
Speaker 1: Sunny sky is the day with to high fifty four
Speaker 1: down to forty two overnight with clear sky's fifty six
Speaker 1: with sun tomorrow thirty two overnight with few clouds in
Speaker 1: their Rain and storms are expected on Sunday and perhaps
Speaker 1: severe fifty five for the high Sunday. Right now closing
Speaker 1: down to thirty two degrees. Time for final traffic chucking
Speaker 1: room from the ucl Tramtics Center.
Speaker 15: The University of Cincinnati Cancer Center offers innovative clinical trials

Speaker 15: Lockham Chuck Ingram on fifty five KR seat the talk station.
Speaker 1: Let's say fifty one to fifty both ks detalxation. The
Speaker 1: mic comes on and that's immediately when I had got
Speaker 1: hit with a sneeze. Thankfully I have a cough button
Speaker 1: in addition to the dump button. Corey Bowman Instudio learned
Speaker 1: about all that this morning, Corey, learn more than thank
Speaker 1: you for your grace on that. You're more than welcome man.
Speaker 1: Trust me, brother, You're not the first person who's required
Speaker 1: me to hit the dump button. So we went down
Speaker 1: most of your policy platform positions again. You can find
Speaker 1: Corey online at Corey Bowman dot com, and I encourage
Speaker 1: you to do that again the debate next week. We'll
Speaker 1: can one more plug for that Covedale Convention Center on
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth at seven pm, open to the public,
Speaker 1: and all three Merrill candidates will be there. Corey Bowman.
Speaker 1: Of course I have to have Purval and Brian Frank,
Speaker 1: so feel free to attend that and learn more Corey
Speaker 1: anything else you want to get in the last few
Speaker 1: minutes we got remaining here that we maybe didn't touch
Speaker 1: on something revealing about you, something that might be interesting
Speaker 1: people get interested in voting for you or perhaps helping
Speaker 1: you out in your campaign trail.
Speaker 20: No, I just say the things that we're learning about
Speaker 20: the process. You know, every day I kind of wake
Speaker 20: up thinking why in the world did you get into this?
Speaker 20: Because our background is, you know, pastoring a church and
Speaker 20: then having a coffee shop, and every day I feel
Speaker 20: like I'm having conversations with people that just encouraged me.
Speaker 20: Like last night we were at Buskin's Bakery and Hyde
Speaker 20: Park area. People came in and now just to say hi,
Speaker 20: here the vision of what we're doing, and just had
Speaker 20: so much encouragement there. And so if any of you
Speaker 20: want to get involved in this, obviously our website Coreyboma
Speaker 20: dot com. But the dates that we're specifically honing in
Speaker 20: on right now is April eighth is going to be
Speaker 20: the early voting starts for the primary. Yeah yeah, and
Speaker 20: then we're actually having an early voting kickoff at Price
Speaker 20: Hill Chili that night, and so if anybody wants to
Speaker 20: attend that, that's gonna be I believe from I believe
Speaker 20: five to seven.
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's April eighth.
Speaker 20: That price heal Chili, and then we just have to
Speaker 20: mobilize people to be able to get out and vote
Speaker 20: April eighth through May six. This is when the primary
Speaker 20: dates are happening to where we've got to get anybody
Speaker 20: that wants to see us on the ballot and win
Speaker 20: this primary for November to get out and vote there.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I encourage people to do that, and of course you
Speaker 1: all that information be posted on Corey's website as well,
Speaker 1: keep you informed on what's coming up. Well, Corey, it's
Speaker 1: been a pleasure having in the studio. Appreciate you making
Speaker 1: the trip to talk for in person. It's always a
Speaker 1: nice conversation we've had, and I certainly wish you the
Speaker 1: best of luck on the campaign trail. It's nice to
Speaker 1: see that you're running ato enthusiastic people.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I share your understand I mean I wouldn't get into
Speaker 1: a race period. You know, I've been asking for you
Speaker 1: should run for a second. Hell no, And my my
Speaker 1: biggest problems button there. Yeah okay, yeah, it's but the
Speaker 1: most you know, blue emphasis I can use on the
Speaker 1: morning show. Yeah, you see, but it's it's always like
Speaker 1: hell no. My first reaction and the most troubling part
Speaker 1: of running is for me, at least, I perceive that
Speaker 1: that you have to go around and ask people for
Speaker 1: money you need, so you can't run a campaign without funds,
Speaker 1: and that just the idea of that. And I'm I'm
Speaker 1: on the self deprecating side.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: I'm not a big pattern on my own back kind
Speaker 1: of person, so thinking that anybody would want to vote
Speaker 1: for me for anything is sort of like my brain
Speaker 1: wants to reject that. Well, during our kickoff, people wearing
Speaker 1: shirts with my name on it very weird. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: I just liked the concept of celebrity or something like that,
Speaker 1: just like I reel at that. But then having that
Speaker 1: mindset and then having to hold your hand out and
Speaker 1: ask someone to please contribute because I need to bake signs,
Speaker 1: I need to make T shirts. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: wish you the best man. I'm glad you got the
Speaker 1: stomach for it, because you seem like a good man
Speaker 1: on policies and principles. And of course I think the
Speaker 1: city of Sin Sin could certainly use a change. It's
Speaker 1: been run by Democrats for way, way too long, and
Speaker 1: look where they brought us. It's all about a choice.
Speaker 20: It's all about That's what we started getting into this
Speaker 20: for was that I didn't like the fact that people
Speaker 20: weren't going to have a choice. And so as we
Speaker 20: have gone through this, like I said, day you wake up,
Speaker 20: you kind of doubt whether this was the right decision.
Speaker 20: But then by the end of the day, I'm more
Speaker 20: encouraged than ever before that this was the right decision.
Speaker 20: That we're going to run to win and we're going
Speaker 20: to be able to see strategic things happen in this
Speaker 20: say that really have never been done. Excellent closing comments,
Speaker 20: Corey Bowman. We'll we'll talk again. I am certain about that,
Speaker 20: and good luck and or best luck with the debate
Speaker 20: next week.
