I don't think that any 195 00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:35.600 words could do justice how wonderful that television was. 196 00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:38.879 We have to do a nightcap on that, because there's 197 00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:42.320 a lot of backstory. Anyhow, well, I'm quite sure this 198 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:45.159 model existed only because of the price, which was thirteen 199 00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:47.559 ninety five and nineteen forty eight, so about one hundred 200 00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:49.919 and sixty or one hundred and eighty six bucks today, 201 00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:53.919 which was a deal for radio. Actually, I think John 202 00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.879 mixed plan may have been to capitalize in the post 203 00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:58.960 war buying blitz, but discovered that it certainly was not 204 00:12:59.039 --> 00:13:01.639 a unique idea, and from what I can tell, nineteen 205 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:03.799 fifty two was the last year they made any radio 206 00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.440 or television. But hey, another shout out to our buddy 207 00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:10.360 Ron for providing a bunch of radio advertisements and articles 208 00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:12.600 to me. And then that document dump. I found this 209 00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:17.919 mechad from Radio and Television Retailing magazine. Okay, it begins. 210 00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:20.720 If she likes it, you're all set. 211 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:25.360 If she likes it. No wait, if she likes it, 212 00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:28.279 you're all set, all set for what. 213 00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:29.960 Is this? 214 00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:33.679 Is this radio possibly gonna get you lucky, make you 215 00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:35.000 lucky in low? 216 00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.279 Remember Remember this is radio and television retailing, so this 217 00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.559 is aimed at dealers, not the consumer. 218 00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:45.879 Well still, well if she still, if she likes it, 219 00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:49.360 you're all set. What if she doesn't like it? Do 220 00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:51.600 they even go into that territory? 221 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:57.000 That made me think of response, But I don't think 222 00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:00.399 we can do that. After six o'clock, yees, dealers told 223 00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:04.320 us it is the woman that usually buys the second set, 224 00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:08.159 the extra radio for the bedroom or kitchen, et cetera. 225 00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:12.399 Okay, so the guys are in charge of buying the 226 00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:16.919 primary set. Let the little lady pick out an extra one. 227 00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:21.639 It's like my it's like my wife, Maurice said, I'm 228 00:14:21.720 --> 00:14:23.720 just a woman. I don't even know how I got here. 229 00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.559 Dealers told us that I appeal is the great selling point, 230 00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:34.120 the one that closes these women buyers. 231 00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:38.120 Oh and what is the I appeal of this unit 232 00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:39.759 that you're describing, Rick. 233 00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:43.879 Not a damn thing that I could find the price tag. 234 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:51.840 Perhaps radios introduced startling new cabibinets created by America's foremost designers. Yeah, 235 00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:55.559 that's a lie. Everyone will help you get a bigger 236 00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:57.840 share of this pent up market. 237 00:14:59.320 --> 00:14:59.840 Pent up. 238 00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:06.879 It's a lot of innuendo, an incredible amount. 239 00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:10.120 If she likes it, you're all set, especially if she's 240 00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:10.960 pent up. 241 00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:18.960 Yeah, the line that dealer is designed, I mean, like, 242 00:15:21.000 --> 00:15:23.840 hurry up and buy a make radio. We're about to 243 00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:24.600 go out of business. 244 00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.600 So how long did John Mex stay in business? 245 00:15:29.840 --> 00:15:31.360 As far as I can tell, he came out with 246 00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:34.879 the ideas, started marketing in forty four for the post 247 00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:38.879 war market, and he sold radios and televisions from forty 248 00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:41.559 six to fifty two. Okay, that's that's the most I 249 00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:44.159 can find on him. But I can't find any ride 250 00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:47.919 up or history or more specific location or anything about him. 251 00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.320 So okay, So where was he based? 252 00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:50.600 Then? 253 00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:58.639 You don't know Plymouth, Indiana, Plymouth Indiana. Does Plymouth Indiana 254 00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:01.759 even exist today? That'd be the question. And where is it? 255 00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:05.480 Depends on your definition? Yes, yes, it is still down. 256 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:10.200 He didn't take the whole neighborhood. 257 00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:13.320 Well, I mean, I want to know how far If 258 00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:15.840 it's like a day trip, maybe christ to two point 259 00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:18.440 oh and I can go to Plymouth, Indiana and uh 260 00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:23.000 and go through the John Mech Radio Museum or see 261 00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:26.759 the giant statue of John Meck that's erected in the 262 00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:28.559 town square. Perhaps, or. 263 00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.039 He's giving this radio a lot of credits. 264 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:36.200 Well, apparently so were they. 265 00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:39.039 And it didn't work. 266 00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:47.440 If she likes it, you're all sad. How about hobbabbo. 267 00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:50.399 This radio is paving the way for you to have 268 00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:54.799 a little bit of h of good times with the lady. 269 00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:58.720 And it may even be able to pick up a 270 00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:01.679 station to provide some nice music in the background. 271 00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:02.200 Or it maybe not. 272 00:17:03.600 --> 00:17:06.680 Turn it on and turn her on, baby.

I mean, 300 00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:48.680 the thing is going to look like a centrifuge at 301 00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:51.599 a power plant by the time that they have a winner. 302 00:18:54.400 --> 00:19:00.279 It's amazing, the whole events here in town.

Pete died in twenty oh four. I 364 00:22:46.680 --> 00:22:51.279 want to take it back now to September second, nineteen 365 00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:57.599 forty five. Aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay. Douglas 366 00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:03.680 MacArthur represented the Allies at the Japanese surrender ceremonies. He 367 00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:08.079 brought six pens to the signing, three for the Allies, 368 00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:12.920 three for the Japanese. MacArthur got halfway through signing his 369 00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:18.680 name to the document when he stopped. He motioned another 370 00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:24.759 general forward and handed him the first pen. The man 371 00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:31.960 was Jonathan Wainwright, fourth, the highest ranking American prisoner of 372 00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:38.599 war in World War Two. In August, Wainwright had been 373 00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:43.920 liberated from a Japanese prison camp in Manchuria. It ended 374 00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:48.359 thirty eight months of confinement for the survivors of the 375 00:23:48.480 --> 00:23:52.559 Japanese takeover of the Philippine Islands, which had commenced on 376 00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:57.000 Pearl Harbor Day, when the Japanese also attacked clark Field 377 00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:03.400 in the Philippines. Five months after Pearl. President Roosevelt ordered 378 00:24:03.480 --> 00:24:09.160 MacArthur to leave Manila and escape to Australia. He did 379 00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:15.119 so reluctantly, leaving Wainwright in charge. The only thing that 380 00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:19.079 would have saved the Americans and the Filipinos was copious 381 00:24:19.119 --> 00:24:24.519 supplies of food and weapons. They got neither, but MacArthur 382 00:24:25.119 --> 00:24:30.519 forbid surrender until FDR opened the door to that possibility. 383 00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:36.319 The Japanese then corralled the eighty thousand Allies who were 384 00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:42.319 left on Baton and corrigador A hospital was bombed and 385 00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:46.759 Wainwright was hit with a shell that permanently injured his hearing. 386 00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:55.119 On May the seventh, nineteen forty two, Wainwright surrendered, and 387 00:24:55.240 --> 00:25:01.240 the Baton Death March of the survivors began. Sixty six 388 00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:06.680 days on foot. That meant the POWs would have to 389 00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:11.920 drink water out of ditches full of dead bodies just 390 00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:17.559 to avoid dehydration and their own deaths. The six foot 391 00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:20.920 two inch Wainwright was down to one hundred and thirty 392 00:25:20.960 --> 00:25:26.799 pounds when the march started. Wainwright reported in his diary 393 00:25:27.400 --> 00:25:30.559 that they would try to separate bugs from their rations 394 00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:35.960 when it ended they were seeking the bugs to enhance 395 00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:37.680 the few meals that they got. 396 00:25:39.519 --> 00:25:40.400 Before it was all over. 397 00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:44.400 In nineteen forty five, these men and women were transported 398 00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:49.519 to multiple Japanese fortresses in Taiwan, captured fifty years earlier 399 00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:54.039 from the japan excuse me from the Chinese and other outposts, 400 00:25:55.240 --> 00:25:57.279 starting in the heat and humidity of the Pacific and 401 00:25:57.400 --> 00:26:01.839 ending in minus forty five degree cold of Manchuria. On 402 00:26:01.960 --> 00:26:05.839 February the second, nineteen forty five, Wainwright glumly noted in 403 00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:12.839 his diary the groundhog saw his shadow six more weeks 404 00:26:13.400 --> 00:26:22.200 of winter. Wainwright always feared the surrender, vehemently opposed by MacArthur, 405 00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:27.079 would result in disciplinary action if he actually lived. 406 00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:27.440 Through the war. 407 00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:33.680 Cut off from communicating with anybody but his wife, whose 408 00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:38.200 letters to him never arrived thanks to his captors, he 409 00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:42.440 remained painfully ignorant, along with the other prisoners, of such 410 00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:45.640 events as the attempt to award him the Medal of 411 00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:50.039 Honor for holding out as long as he did. MacArthur 412 00:26:50.160 --> 00:26:54.200 stopped it. There was a May nineteen forty four Time 413 00:26:54.279 --> 00:26:59.680 magazine cover with his image behind barb wire. Time commented 414 00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:05.240 that the Japanese now held thirteen thousand POWs that included 415 00:27:05.279 --> 00:27:09.920 thirty five generals, headed by what Time called the man 416 00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:15.680 left behind to preside at his country's worst military fiasco. 417 00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:19.160 Awaiting death or liberation. 418 00:27:20.519 --> 00:27:23.839 The Japanese scotted at the Geneva Convention trying to force 419 00:27:23.920 --> 00:27:27.599 officers to work alongside on listed men, which is designed 420 00:27:27.599 --> 00:27:29.039 to thwart the chain of command. 421 00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:30.839 When the execution of his. 422 00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:36.480 Men was threatened, Wainwright sought a compromise. The officers would 423 00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:40.640 work small farms and gardens, which supplied food for everybody. 424 00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:47.160 In one notable episode, an aid commandeer a duck named Donald, 425 00:27:47.240 --> 00:27:52.200 of course, as a pet. The Japanese commandant awarded the 426 00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:55.720 officers with a banquet featuring a speech on the evils 427 00:27:55.759 --> 00:28:01.119 of the United States and also a delicious bird. It 428 00:28:01.319 --> 00:28:04.759 was Donald, the host made sure the prisoners knew that 429 00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:12.839 Japanese version of irony. When freed, Wainwright found out that 430 00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:18.720 his commander in chief, Franklin Roosevelt, was dead. He found 431 00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:22.079 out that we now had the atomic bomb, that we 432 00:28:22.240 --> 00:28:29.000 employed jetplanes, and that his beloved pow wife Adele, was 433 00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:31.680 hopelessly addicted to alcohol and sedatives. 434 00:28:36.640 --> 00:28:37.480 She wound up. 435 00:28:39.640 --> 00:28:43.519 At a facility in Colorado Springs. It would be separated 436 00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:48.480 for most of the final eight years of Wainwright's life. 437 00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:53.640 MacArthur got in command of the fourth Army in San Antonio. 438 00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:58.559 He got a fourth star, and he did get his 439 00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:02.240 Medal of Honor. He retired from the Army. He wrote 440 00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.759 a book, but Hollywood thought a movie about a surrender 441 00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:14.160 just wouldn't fly, so he supplemented his income with commercial endorsements. 442 00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:22.519 On the anniversary of the Japanese surrender ceremonies, Jonathan Wainwright 443 00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:34.359 died September the second, nineteen fifty three, with just his 444 00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:37.799 son by his side, at Brook Army Medical Center. 445 00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:39.960 In San Antonio. 446 00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:47.119 Adele remained in Colorado Springs. Doctor MacArthur probably said it 447 00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:53.640 best remember this on July the fourth. Old soldiers never died, 448 00:29:55.799 --> 00:29:58.079 They just fade away. 449 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.799 Thanks Scary, Jeff, Thank you, Steve Ray and Lovelin. Good morning, 450 00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:08.079 my brother, How are you? 451 00:30:09.039 --> 00:30:11.839 Good morning Gary, Jeff Walker, Good morning, Sarry? Hey, how 452 00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:12.960 are we looking on time? Brother? 453 00:30:14.119 --> 00:30:16.559 I got maybe a couple of minutes. What's up? What's 454 00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:17.160 on your mind? 455 00:30:18.359 --> 00:30:22.359 The fantastic rest of the story again by Steve. Thank you, 456 00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:27.759 and I must relay the best I can. If we 457 00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:30.119 had the good fortune years ago we were down in 458 00:30:31.039 --> 00:30:32.000 Destined at the beach. 459 00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:33.160 Yeah, and the. 460 00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:35.960 Crazy, the crazy fools we were. We decided to drive 461 00:30:36.039 --> 00:30:41.599 the mobile Alabama to see the USS Alabama. Was my son, 462 00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:45.160 the Patriot, Jacob. This was in twenty fourteen, want to 463 00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:48.440 go there. It was a great thing to do. The 464 00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:51.039 little old man we know was pulled up out in 465 00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:53.960 the parking lot. We got there early and he got 466 00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:55.319 out a little two wheeler. 467 00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:57.039 And he came in to the. 468 00:30:58.680 --> 00:31:04.680 Souvenir there in the entrance actually to this museum, and 469 00:31:04.839 --> 00:31:07.160 there was people scurrying about, and this fellow sat up 470 00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:10.200 the table and he had books there, and I had 471 00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:13.720 him looked over there, and I walked over us talked 472 00:31:13.720 --> 00:31:20.440 to him. This man Colonel Glenn Frasier, a survivor of 473 00:31:20.599 --> 00:31:27.079 the the Time Death March. This man was amazing, was amazing, 474 00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:29.880 and no one's talking to him as I couldn't believe it, 475 00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:32.920 and I'm sure people did later. But we had the 476 00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:35.319 good fortune of having his company for a number of minutes, 477 00:31:35.319 --> 00:31:39.640 and he was very, very gracious in time, and he 478 00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:44.359 told us the story of calling home whenever he got 479 00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:48.839 to San Francisco. During the prisoner release, and he called 480 00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:53.119 home and his mother answered the phone and he said 481 00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:56.960 hello to her, and she passed out, hit the floor 482 00:31:56.960 --> 00:31:58.079 because they thought he was dead. 483 00:31:58.920 --> 00:31:59.160 Wow. 484 00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:03.079 His sister gets on the phone, same thing happens. His 485 00:32:03.240 --> 00:32:07.160 father comes in. He did not pass out, that they 486 00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:10.880 thought him to be dead. And I'll just say this 487 00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:15.000 that we purchased his book, and he was so gracious. 488 00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:16.720 He wrote this note in here, which I'm going to 489 00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:20.039 read if I may go ahead. It's short, he says 490 00:32:20.119 --> 00:32:25.400 to Jacob, this book will help you overcome any challenge. 491 00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:31.079 May God's blessings come to you and yours. Colonel Glenn 492 00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:37.519 Fraser retired February twenty fourteen. He has since passed. But 493 00:32:37.640 --> 00:32:41.279 we had the great fortune spending time with a true 494 00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:42.240 American hero. 495 00:32:43.599 --> 00:32:45.960 So God bless you, brother, God. 496 00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:48.400 Bless thank you, sir for sharing that with us. And 497 00:32:50.359 --> 00:32:58.039 that's why these stories of these past heroes need to 498 00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:02.039 be told over and over again, so that not only we, 499 00:33:03.000 --> 00:33:08.279 but also the next generations will understand what sacrifice really 500 00:33:08.480 --> 00:33:16.559 is and what perseverance is. Liam Producer Extraordinaire, says, every 501 00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:20.240 day I pray for adversity, Well, I pray you get 502 00:33:20.319 --> 00:33:24.480 what you're praying for.

Big celebration this weekend for the Reds, 508 00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:53.079 the fiftieth anniversary celebration of the Big Red Machine nineteen 509 00:33:53.160 --> 00:33:56.200 seventy five to twenty twenty Downe. That's a celebration I 510 00:33:56.279 --> 00:34:00.119 can get behind. By the way. Big ups to the 511 00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:04.400 Supreme Court yesterday for their ruling on parents being able 512 00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:07.680 to opt their children out of seeing smut that they 513 00:34:07.759 --> 00:34:16.679 disagree with in public schools. Big big decision and the 514 00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:17.159 right one. 515 00:34:18.119 --> 00:34:18.239 Uh. 516 00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:24.000 Steve Schulty, environmental engineer is here, and this morning, we're 517 00:34:24.079 --> 00:34:27.320 not going to talk about the the recuperation of the 518 00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:31.880 Arctic ice caps. We're not going to talk about the 519 00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:34.559 Great Barrier Reef. We're not going to talk about the 520 00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:38.639 evils of evs. We're going to talk about vacation with 521 00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.719 the family in the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Good morning, 522 00:34:42.840 --> 00:34:47.079 mister Shulty. I am so jealous and I know that's wrong. 523 00:34:48.360 --> 00:34:51.760 Yeah, I know, Good morning Gary, Jeff. Yeah, we're having 524 00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:56.320 my wife's family vacation. We usually go to the beach, 525 00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:59.199 but this year we decided a little closer to home 526 00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:02.880 and we were now up as I say, we're up, 527 00:35:02.920 --> 00:35:05.880 and then there hills outside of Gatlinburg. 528 00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:08.199 You know that, John Denver, John Denver, and take me 529 00:35:08.360 --> 00:35:12.719 home Country Roads Road almost Heaven, West Virginia. I think 530 00:35:13.079 --> 00:35:15.440 when you're in the smoky Mountains of Tennessee, you're just 531 00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:18.719 a little bit even closer to paradise there, because it 532 00:35:18.880 --> 00:35:22.199 is absolutely stunningly beautiful, is it not? 533 00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:26.400 It is, And this is what I want to talk about. 534 00:35:26.559 --> 00:35:29.039 You know, the mountains of East Tennessee and western North 535 00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:33.760 Carolina are blanket by a smoky haze, which kind of 536 00:35:33.800 --> 00:35:36.920 gives the area of mystical and mysterious look. In fact, 537 00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:41.360 the Cherokee Indians considered there and the area a sacred place, 538 00:35:42.119 --> 00:35:45.440 and they made Shakunjia if I get that right, meaning 539 00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:50.320 land of blue smokes. So even before mankind got here, 540 00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:54.800 was already famous. And this famous so called fog is 541 00:35:54.840 --> 00:36:00.440 actually produced by native vegetation. We always we talked about 542 00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:04.760 many times plants, green plants take in carbon dioxide release oxygen, 543 00:36:05.719 --> 00:36:12.360 thank god. However, plants also emit other chemicals besides oxygen, 544 00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:18.039 and many of these are called volatile organic compounds v ocs, 545 00:36:18.719 --> 00:36:23.199 which man also releases in our cars, trucks, painting operations, 546 00:36:23.280 --> 00:36:27.559 so on and so forth. So actually, so what happens 547 00:36:27.679 --> 00:36:31.239 is when these chemicals, these VOCs, and the right environment 548 00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:37.199 with humidity and the sunlight and heat and whatnot, Well, 549 00:36:37.679 --> 00:36:42.239 the Financial Park Service like to call it fog. Well, 550 00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:46.159 really it's naturalmall. 551 00:36:46.440 --> 00:36:47.360 S m o G. 552 00:36:48.840 --> 00:36:53.519 So now obviously it's not in an area that's olstrations 553 00:36:53.960 --> 00:36:56.599 you know, that are dangerous for man or have any 554 00:36:56.679 --> 00:36:59.239 health effects. But that's in fact what it is. It's 555 00:36:59.400 --> 00:37:03.039 natural smog. And some will say, well it also has 556 00:37:03.159 --> 00:37:06.159 sometimes it has the blue color to it. Yeah, and 557 00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:10.199 what this is that the chemicals, the theoc's helped scatter 558 00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:13.480 blue light. So that's what kind of gives it. In fact, 559 00:37:13.559 --> 00:37:16.199 that's why the Cherokee is called the land of blue smoke. 560 00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:19.719 So next time you come into the Smoky mountains, you're 561 00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:24.360 you're breathing natural smog. And the research has been done 562 00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:28.519 and what I'm actually looking at it says that eighty 563 00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:32.800 percent of the smog or fog is the Park Service 564 00:37:32.920 --> 00:37:35.599 like to call it is from nature here in the 565 00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:38.840 park and in the area park twenty percent per man. 566 00:37:40.280 --> 00:37:40.320 So. 567 00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:42.880 But in areas like Cincinnati, believe it or not, it's 568 00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:45.960 the opposite. About twenty to thirty percent of the smog 569 00:37:46.079 --> 00:37:49.559 in Cincinnati is caused by vegetation, as the rest by man. 570 00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:52.440 Yeah, you know what. 571 00:37:52.800 --> 00:37:57.840 And there's an actual different smell when you're in the 572 00:37:57.920 --> 00:38:04.599 Smoky mountains. I mean, all your senses change with this environment, 573 00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:07.960 this natural environment. It is so beautiful. And I am 574 00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:10.840 so again envious of you. I know it's not right 575 00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:14.599 to covet what your neighbor has, but I can't help. 576 00:38:14.679 --> 00:38:17.360 But how long is the line for Hillbilly Golf? 577 00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:23.519 We were at Hillbilly Golf yesterday. We got we thought 578 00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:25.440 we'd get there early, at like ten o'clock. 579 00:38:26.119 --> 00:38:28.039 The line was so long, Oh my god. 580 00:38:28.119 --> 00:38:30.920 We did not get done until twelve thirty. 581 00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:32.559 Believe it or not. 582 00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:36.559 But at twelve thirty, well, there was hardly any line. 583 00:38:38.239 --> 00:38:40.400 Head down down here. 584 00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:44.639 Try try Hillbilly Golf in about twelve twelve noons on 585 00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:47.559 a hot day and you'll probably have no weight. 586 00:38:47.920 --> 00:38:50.280 That's that's fantastic. We'll enjoy the rest of your trip. 587 00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:53.519 Steve Shulty in Gatlinburg in the Great Smoking Mountain is 588 00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:56.320 one of my favorite family trips I took with my 589 00:38:56.519 --> 00:39:02.039 parents and my brothers. Occurred back in two thousand when 590 00:39:02.119 --> 00:39:05.800 we went to Gavinburg. We rented. The family rented a 591 00:39:06.119 --> 00:39:09.920 huge shellet at the top of Wiley Oakley Mountain Road, 592 00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:17.440 overlooking the Smoky Mountain National Forest, and it's burned in 593 00:39:17.519 --> 00:39:23.559 my memory and man Heaven on Earth seven thirteen says 594 00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:26.599 for your next Dave Hatter segment, I'm getting random personal 595 00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:30.880 texts like this, where are you? How have you been? 596 00:39:31.079 --> 00:39:34.760 Trying to get a hold of you. I've got other examples, 597 00:39:34.840 --> 00:39:36.800 but it's a new take on random text trying to 598 00:39:36.840 --> 00:39:39.239 get you to respond and say who is this? And 599 00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:43.039 guess it goes from there knowing they've got a real person. 600 00:39:43.960 --> 00:39:46.840 I said, you haven't answered them, right? He said no. 601 00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:49.320 I get three or four of these weird ones a day. 602 00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:53.480 I said, the best advice is to ignore them. That's 603 00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:56.519 what Dave would say, Am I right? Should you just 604 00:39:56.679 --> 00:39:57.760 ignore these texts? 605 00:39:59.000 --> 00:39:59.440 You know me? 606 00:39:59.599 --> 00:39:59.920 All? Two? 607 00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:00.239 Well? 608 00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:02.639 Gary jeffs, Yeah, I get a bunch of oath myself, 609 00:40:03.400 --> 00:40:06.119 and yeah, the angle here is to just get you 610 00:40:06.199 --> 00:40:08.119 to respond to the day. I've got a live person. 611 00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:12.840 And folks have to realize most of this is coming 612 00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:16.280 from professional con artists. They're just using the Internet to 613 00:40:16.320 --> 00:40:19.039 get to you, and if you respond, then they'll try 614 00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.280 to strike up a conversation and then they'll go wherever 615 00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:24.159 they think they can go to get some to pull 616 00:40:24.199 --> 00:40:26.360 or a conversation and to get to your money somehow. 617 00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:29.199 It might be oh, hey, you know, I'm invested in 618 00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:31.440 crypto and it made a lot of money or whatever. 619 00:40:31.559 --> 00:40:33.840 I mean. Again, these folks are professional con artists, and 620 00:40:33.880 --> 00:40:36.239 I want to remind folks because I get where if 621 00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:38.159 you're not a technical person, you might go, well, how 622 00:40:38.199 --> 00:40:41.480 did they get my phone number? Understand that it's really 623 00:40:41.599 --> 00:40:45.320 easy to write a program that can generate every US 624 00:40:45.360 --> 00:40:47.960 phone number because they follow a known pattern. Right, So 625 00:40:48.079 --> 00:40:49.920 I can write a program that will just loop through 626 00:40:50.320 --> 00:40:53.119 three digits, three digits, four digits and send out texts 627 00:40:53.519 --> 00:40:56.199 and or Gary Jeff. As you know, because we talk 628 00:40:56.239 --> 00:40:59.519 about it all the time, there's these giant data leaks. Unfortunately, 629 00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:01.400 all of our information is out there, so it's really 630 00:41:01.480 --> 00:41:03.880 easy for the bad guys and cost next to nothing 631 00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:07.199 to just send out texts and see what happens. 632 00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:08.320 And you're exactly right. 633 00:41:08.320 --> 00:41:10.199 You should ignore it. And I will tell you occasionally, 634 00:41:10.599 --> 00:41:14.800 if I'm feeling a little spicy, I'll respond with something like, well, 635 00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:16.840 I'm at the FBI Scam Center, can you send me 636 00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:20.079 your address or something like that. But I would advise 637 00:41:21.159 --> 00:41:23.119 most of the time I don't get any response. If 638 00:41:23.119 --> 00:41:25.119 I do that. Every once in a while they'll be 639 00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:26.960 feeling a little spicy and it will lead to some 640 00:41:27.079 --> 00:41:29.599 back and forth before I eventually just reported junk and 641 00:41:29.679 --> 00:41:32.440 block it. But my advice for most people is do 642 00:41:32.599 --> 00:41:34.840 not respond, because as soon as you do, you're just 643 00:41:34.920 --> 00:41:38.159 telling them that you're a live person and there's no 644 00:41:38.320 --> 00:41:40.559 telling what sort of scam they might try to foice them. 645 00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:43.039 So that is the right advice. Ignore it, just hit 646 00:41:43.159 --> 00:41:46.079 you know, report junk, block whatever it's called on your particular. 647 00:41:46.199 --> 00:41:49.199 Now, if you if you delete the message, do they 648 00:41:49.320 --> 00:41:51.199 know that you're a live person. Can they tell that 649 00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:52.400 you've deleted the message? 650 00:41:53.679 --> 00:41:55.880 They should not be able to tell from that, just yet, 651 00:41:55.960 --> 00:41:56.840 don't interact with it. 652 00:41:57.079 --> 00:41:58.519 Delete it, you know, I. 653 00:41:58.559 --> 00:42:01.280 Would suggest again, just port junk or block it or 654 00:42:01.280 --> 00:42:03.239 whatever it's called on your phone, so you don't get 655 00:42:03.239 --> 00:42:07.199 any more messages from that number, but understand, you're still 656 00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:09.360 going to get them from other numbers because the numbers 657 00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:12.960 they're calling are texting you from, are just spoof numbers, right, 658 00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:15.360 They're just making those up to in most cases. And 659 00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:17.119 that's one of the ways they cover their tracks and 660 00:42:17.239 --> 00:42:19.199 fool you is because you know, you might get a 661 00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:20.840 text that looks like it came from the five to 662 00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:23.679 one to three area code, even though they are somewhere else. 663 00:42:24.119 --> 00:42:26.480 All right, Dave Hatter, thank you so much as well 664 00:42:26.599 --> 00:42:30.440 for the good advice, and I was just reaffirming what 665 00:42:30.719 --> 00:42:33.599 I knew you would say because I know you so well. 666 00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:43.800 Time now for the Tom Davis Diaries, diary and from 667 00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:47.840 those diaries, not from Tom Davis, who is on vacation 668 00:42:48.039 --> 00:42:53.360 with his family. This week. We have a theme running 669 00:42:53.440 --> 00:42:58.000 here and I'll preface this with the headline why are 670 00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:01.119 people who are naked in public never the people you 671 00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:06.320 want to see naked in public? Dateline? Philadelphia. Amy Burnham 672 00:43:06.519 --> 00:43:11.079 thirty nine, Pendleton Square arrested in charge with motor vehicle 673 00:43:11.199 --> 00:43:17.880 theft after police reportedly found the woman in the seat 674 00:43:17.920 --> 00:43:25.119 of a stolen car naked in the driver's seat. Deputies 675 00:43:25.159 --> 00:43:28.039 patrolling the extreme southern portion of Nashoba County on Highway 676 00:43:28.079 --> 00:43:30.400 twenty one, where they made contact with the stolen suv, 677 00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:34.960 initiated a traffic stop. Officers dumbfounded when they approached the 678 00:43:35.000 --> 00:43:38.519 stolen vehicle to find the driver was completely naked, partially 679 00:43:38.639 --> 00:43:43.599 covered by a blanket. It goes on. A southern Iowa 680 00:43:43.679 --> 00:43:46.719 woman facing charges after authority say she took her clothes 681 00:43:46.760 --> 00:43:50.000 off stolen American flags and set them on fire this month. 682 00:43:50.079 --> 00:43:53.599 Of course she did. Brianna Laired, aged twenty one, facing 683 00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:58.440 charges after Coller said she burned stolen American flags. While 684 00:43:58.519 --> 00:44:02.360 burning them is fort under the First Amendment. Laird was 685 00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:05.280 charged with third degree arson, assault on an officer in 686 00:44:05.400 --> 00:44:09.920 decent exposure, interference with official acts, fifth degree criminal mischief 687 00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:15.559 and I'm just guessing she also had purple hair. Madisonville, Kentucky, 688 00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:19.199 the police department there say they arrested a man who 689 00:44:19.239 --> 00:44:22.159 assaulted an officer and tried to grab their gun and taser. 690 00:44:24.039 --> 00:44:27.960 Police officers dispatched in response to a possible domestic situation 691 00:44:28.159 --> 00:44:31.440 last Friday night. When they arrived, they found a naked man, 692 00:44:33.360 --> 00:44:36.239 Robert Grigsby shoving two other men to get past them 693 00:44:36.360 --> 00:44:42.039 into an apartment.

The caller said that a man who'd been 697 00:44:55.079 --> 00:44:57.440 taken into the hospital got into one of the ambulances 698 00:44:57.480 --> 00:45:02.440 and drove away. He was not wearing any clothes, because 699 00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:08.000 I mean, number one, if you steal an ambulance, you're 700 00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:11.800 not exactly incognito anywhere you go.

And the reason is because this 755 00:48:18.840 --> 00:48:22.159 study says that cats tend to sleep more on their 756 00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:26.000 left side because their left field of view when they 757 00:48:26.119 --> 00:48:30.840 wake up is goes into the right hemisphere of the 758 00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:34.800 brain and that's the side of the brain that has 759 00:48:34.880 --> 00:48:39.920 spatial awareness and make awareness of threats. So when they 760 00:48:39.960 --> 00:48:43.280 wake up, they can perceive a threat more quickly and 761 00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:46.280 react more quickly than if they slept on their right side. 762 00:48:47.840 --> 00:48:50.599 So you see what we got to do here, So 763 00:48:50.679 --> 00:48:54.159 you got to gotta get a notepad. Frankie sleeping on 764 00:48:54.239 --> 00:48:56.719 the left side you for extended period of time, not 765 00:48:56.920 --> 00:48:58.800 just you know, left side for a few seconds and 766 00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:00.960 get up on it, but just just. 767 00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:02.039 Still you know it. 768 00:49:03.360 --> 00:49:07.760 Christ the two point zero is just texting me and 769 00:49:07.880 --> 00:49:10.639 she says, at this moment it is his left side. 770 00:49:11.760 --> 00:49:15.440 So this is hot, this is playing to form.

When you 823 00:52:19.000 --> 00:52:22.119 write each tweet and reade time, we get a little 824 00:52:22.119 --> 00:52:26.400 bit more in depth with our sports department, or, as 825 00:52:26.639 --> 00:52:29.239 Peter Bronson used to say about The Inquirer's sports, the 826 00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:33.360 toy department, where they play the games and they report 827 00:52:33.440 --> 00:52:35.800 on the people that play the games. And sometimes we 828 00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:42.079 talk about something that's entirely not sports related. Hey, Mowing, 829 00:52:42.360 --> 00:52:45.199 welcome back from vacation. How was it was it great? 830 00:52:45.559 --> 00:52:47.679 It was awesome? It was awesome. I'm sorry I missed 831 00:52:47.679 --> 00:52:48.400 you last Saturday. 832 00:52:48.440 --> 00:52:51.599 That's you know what. Austin Elmore filled in admirably. He 833 00:52:52.199 --> 00:52:54.800 stepped up like a champ. He just happened to be 834 00:52:54.880 --> 00:52:58.679 awake making his ice coffee, which I just can't understand 835 00:52:58.719 --> 00:52:59.000 it all. 836 00:52:59.239 --> 00:53:02.599 But yeah, that's something that I cannot relate to. 837 00:53:02.880 --> 00:53:05.480 You know me either, And and he said that he 838 00:53:05.599 --> 00:53:09.800 had just finished his morning workout. So we we went 839 00:53:09.920 --> 00:53:15.280 through the tale of Austin's regimen. And I was surprised, 840 00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:17.639 just like I was surprised when I found out that 841 00:53:18.079 --> 00:53:20.079 David Keaton was an avid tennis player. 842 00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:24.519 You learned something new every day at our place, don't. 843 00:53:24.280 --> 00:53:28.679 You, Yes, you do. There's surprises, surprises around every corner. 844 00:53:29.119 --> 00:53:31.519 I want to start tonight and you and I talked 845 00:53:31.559 --> 00:53:37.119 about it when he passed. But tonight at Mount Saint Joe, 846 00:53:37.159 --> 00:53:41.960 they're having this special uh celebration of Jim Scott's life 847 00:53:42.039 --> 00:53:44.519 and it's a benefit for als, which of course took 848 00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:50.920 Jim's life, and just another chance to honor somebody who 849 00:53:51.159 --> 00:53:55.320 was the most amazing. And Donna was great in their 850 00:53:55.400 --> 00:53:59.480 interview with Scott Sloan yesterday. If you come, make sure 851 00:53:59.519 --> 00:54:02.360 you stand up and shake somebody's hand and says hello, 852 00:54:02.719 --> 00:54:05.760 I'm so and so what's your name? 853 00:54:06.239 --> 00:54:06.800 What do you do? 854 00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:10.320 Because That's exactly what Jim would do, and he did 855 00:54:10.440 --> 00:54:13.719 that for as long as I knew him, as long 856 00:54:13.760 --> 00:54:18.239 as he was in the public eye. Just any any 857 00:54:18.360 --> 00:54:21.960 last little flash remembrances of the late Jim Scott that 858 00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:24.280 you'd like to share, since today is the day that 859 00:54:24.760 --> 00:54:26.519 people will be gathering to do that. 860 00:54:28.239 --> 00:54:31.400 Yeah, you know, tonight's going to be fun, and I 861 00:54:31.480 --> 00:54:33.719 think that's key. You know, Donna from the get go 862 00:54:33.960 --> 00:54:36.239 has said she doesn't want you know what Jim passed. 863 00:54:38.199 --> 00:54:41.840 There was there was no funeral. You know, there was 864 00:54:41.960 --> 00:54:45.280 no you know, for for the public. There was no 865 00:54:46.360 --> 00:54:48.920 you know, sort of modeling. Hey, we're going to stand 866 00:54:48.960 --> 00:54:52.840 around and more Jim. Donna wanted something that was a celebration, 867 00:54:53.000 --> 00:54:56.280 a true celebration, because Jim was not a funeral type guy. 868 00:54:56.519 --> 00:54:59.920 So this is going to be the exact opposite of it. 869 00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:01.360 It's going to be a lot of fun. There's going 870 00:55:01.440 --> 00:55:04.320 to be great stories told, and we're going to celebrate 871 00:55:04.440 --> 00:55:07.679 somebody who meant a lot to the city and was 872 00:55:08.039 --> 00:55:10.320 more than just a great broadcaster. And we're going to 873 00:55:10.400 --> 00:55:13.360 raise a lot of money for UC's AOS Endowment, which 874 00:55:13.400 --> 00:55:15.559 is really really important. But you know, you talked about 875 00:55:15.599 --> 00:55:18.639 something my first, the first time I ever met Jim. 876 00:55:19.400 --> 00:55:21.960 You know, I was working at the radio station and 877 00:55:22.480 --> 00:55:25.599 it was part time, you know, working on the weekend, 878 00:55:25.880 --> 00:55:28.320 that sort of thing, and Jim had just come back 879 00:55:28.400 --> 00:55:32.159 after he had left for a while, and you know, 880 00:55:32.320 --> 00:55:35.079 he needed a producer. So they they, somebody in their 881 00:55:35.079 --> 00:55:39.360 infinite wisdom, decided, let's pair a guy who's been on 882 00:55:39.440 --> 00:55:41.760 the air for thirty years and is already a legend 883 00:55:42.039 --> 00:55:44.360 with a guy who has no experience. That makes a 884 00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:47.159 lot of sense. And so I go in to meet 885 00:55:47.239 --> 00:55:49.239 Jim for the first time, and I obviously knew who 886 00:55:49.320 --> 00:55:52.280 he was, but you know, it's like a game of 887 00:55:52.400 --> 00:55:55.440 twenty questions. What's your name, where are you from, what's 888 00:55:55.440 --> 00:55:57.320 your dad's name, where's he from, what does he do 889 00:55:57.440 --> 00:55:59.400 for a living, what's your mom's name, what's your mom's 890 00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:02.079 maiden name. And it hit me at that moment, and 891 00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:04.719 I was twenty years old at the time, that that's 892 00:56:04.840 --> 00:56:09.519 what made him so great. He could connect with anybody, 893 00:56:10.119 --> 00:56:14.679 he could relate to anybody, and he had a genuine 894 00:56:14.760 --> 00:56:17.159 curiosity about people. And so when you would go in 895 00:56:17.239 --> 00:56:20.800 public with Jim, whether it was a station event or 896 00:56:21.119 --> 00:56:23.480 you know, in recent years, he and I would go 897 00:56:23.519 --> 00:56:26.400 to a Reds game every year and we would hang out, 898 00:56:26.519 --> 00:56:28.400 and even though he wasn't on the air anymore, he 899 00:56:28.400 --> 00:56:30.599 would still walk around and ask people who they were, 900 00:56:30.719 --> 00:56:33.800 what their name was, where they were from. And it 901 00:56:33.920 --> 00:56:36.360 was always so cool because you know, back in the day, 902 00:56:36.920 --> 00:56:39.039 you know, he would ask people, Hey, you know, I'm 903 00:56:39.119 --> 00:56:42.519 on the air weekday mornings. I'm going on tomorrow morning 904 00:56:42.599 --> 00:56:45.880 on seven hundred WLW, do you mind giving me a listen? 905 00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:48.599 And then once he stopped being on the air and 906 00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:51.480 we would go, you know, do stuff, he would say, well, 907 00:56:51.519 --> 00:56:54.880 this is my friend Moegar ESPN fifteen thirty three to six, 908 00:56:54.920 --> 00:56:57.119 would you mind giving him a listen? That's just what 909 00:56:57.239 --> 00:56:59.920 he did. He was a great guy and awesome brought 910 00:57:00.679 --> 00:57:03.800 and I'm excited, uh to get a chance to talk 911 00:57:03.840 --> 00:57:04.559 about him tonight. 912 00:57:04.719 --> 00:57:07.199 And he had of this persona of being a very 913 00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:11.639 nice guy, which he was. And that is why my 914 00:57:11.880 --> 00:57:15.159 distinct memory of Jim is what I've shared with you before, 915 00:57:15.239 --> 00:57:17.760 but I'll share again for the purposes of this conversation, 916 00:57:18.400 --> 00:57:21.000 was when we moved into our new studios from Mount 917 00:57:21.039 --> 00:57:24.679 Adams to Kinwood, and they had built a performance studio 918 00:57:24.800 --> 00:57:27.639 with a big glass window in front where live bands 919 00:57:27.679 --> 00:57:31.719 would play on WEBN or whatever on the power Pig 920 00:57:32.440 --> 00:57:33.360 whatever it was called. 921 00:57:33.880 --> 00:57:34.440 And H. 922 00:57:36.239 --> 00:57:39.320 And Jim was Jim was looking in the window out 923 00:57:39.360 --> 00:57:41.840 in the hallway and I saddled up next to him 924 00:57:42.440 --> 00:57:45.039 as we're all seeing the new studios and looking in 925 00:57:45.119 --> 00:57:47.920 the big glass window of this performance studio where bands 926 00:57:47.960 --> 00:57:50.679 would play. And I said, Jim, just this reminding you 927 00:57:50.800 --> 00:57:52.920 of your early days in radio in the thirties when 928 00:57:52.920 --> 00:57:56.679 they had live orchestras. And he just he looked at 929 00:57:56.760 --> 00:58:00.440 me and he smiled and he said, blank you. Jim 930 00:58:00.519 --> 00:58:03.559 Scott said blank you to no one, but he said 931 00:58:03.599 --> 00:58:06.599 it to me all day and and he did it 932 00:58:06.719 --> 00:58:09.280 with a smile on his face. And I just walked away. 933 00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:12.800 I'm going, that's all I need, I mean, And that's 934 00:58:12.960 --> 00:58:16.000 that's the That's the image I'll always carry, is that 935 00:58:16.519 --> 00:58:19.920 Jim Scott said blank you to me. I must have 936 00:58:20.079 --> 00:58:21.360 done something special. 937 00:58:24.519 --> 00:58:26.639 Well, I can tell you that I made him say 938 00:58:26.840 --> 00:58:28.599 blank you to me a number of times, but it 939 00:58:28.679 --> 00:58:31.320 wasn't because I was joking with it because I screwed 940 00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:36.519 something up. But you know, Jim had an awesome sense 941 00:58:36.559 --> 00:58:39.119 of humor. Yes, right, uh. And And as kind of 942 00:58:39.320 --> 00:58:41.800 a quirky sense of humor, but had an awesome sense 943 00:58:41.840 --> 00:58:46.159 of humor. And you know, I was I think about 944 00:58:46.199 --> 00:58:50.239 this sometimes. Uh, you know, we have really fun jobs 945 00:58:50.280 --> 00:58:52.679 and we get a chance to do what we love. 946 00:58:53.880 --> 00:58:57.760 The great thing about Jim was man, nobody as as 947 00:58:57.840 --> 00:59:02.880 much as he loved being Jim Scott. Nobody enjoyed the 948 00:59:04.800 --> 00:59:07.480 the ins and outs of being on the radio. Nobody 949 00:59:07.679 --> 00:59:11.679 enjoyed doing their job more than Jim Scott. There are 950 00:59:11.840 --> 00:59:16.639 people in our business who enjoy being well known or 951 00:59:16.800 --> 00:59:20.679 being in the public, and Jim enjoyed that without question. 952 00:59:20.960 --> 00:59:24.840 But he enjoyed the mechanics of doing a daily radio 953 00:59:24.920 --> 00:59:30.519 show from five till nine, and that was infectious. And 954 00:59:31.000 --> 00:59:33.119 you know, to me as a young kid, it was like, 955 00:59:33.679 --> 00:59:36.280 holy craft, this guy's having a blast. This is fun. 956 00:59:37.079 --> 00:59:40.400 This is what I want to do. And so I 957 00:59:41.079 --> 00:59:44.360 think about that often because there are times where it's like, 958 00:59:45.039 --> 00:59:46.920 holy craft, this is a little bit of a grind. 959 00:59:47.039 --> 00:59:48.760 There's not a lot to talk about. I don't have 960 00:59:48.920 --> 00:59:50.880 my a game today, and it's like, all right, you know, 961 00:59:51.000 --> 00:59:56.039 pick it up here, you're not digging ditches. And Jim Man, 962 00:59:56.679 --> 00:59:58.760 it was contagious. You know, I'd come in in the morning, 963 00:59:58.800 --> 01:00:01.679 and you know me, man, I'm the world's biggest morning person, 964 01:00:02.519 --> 01:00:05.360 and I'd be dragging it before thirty in the morning. 965 01:00:05.400 --> 01:00:06.760 And by the time we went on the air, I 966 01:00:06.840 --> 01:00:10.159 had energy just because Jim. You couldn't help but grab 967 01:00:10.280 --> 01:00:12.760 some energy from Jim because he just he brought it 968 01:00:12.840 --> 01:00:15.800 every day. And it was as a as a guy 969 01:00:15.920 --> 01:00:19.039 who was, you know, really impressionable and wanted a career 970 01:00:19.159 --> 01:00:23.440 doing this. It had an everlasting impact on. 971 01:00:23.559 --> 01:00:28.119 Me very good. Well, you know, talk about enjoying what 972 01:00:28.320 --> 01:00:32.639 they're doing. Uh, this version of the Cincinnati red seems 973 01:00:32.679 --> 01:00:35.840 to be enjoying what they're doing, and last night was 974 01:00:35.880 --> 01:00:40.039 another great example of that. Lately, it's just it's it's 975 01:00:40.119 --> 01:00:42.960 almost like there's a different team on the field the 976 01:00:43.079 --> 01:00:45.039 last couple of weeks or so. 977 01:00:45.239 --> 01:00:49.079 Mo Have you felt that too, Yeah, I think without 978 01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:54.239 question really since that that that UHA series against the Diamondbacks. 979 01:00:54.760 --> 01:00:57.920 You know, the player's only meeting, and you hear about 980 01:00:58.000 --> 01:01:01.400 players only meetings all the time in all of sports, 981 01:01:02.320 --> 01:01:05.559 but I think this one is reflective of something the 982 01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:09.039 Reds made a concerted effort to do this offseason. And 983 01:01:09.159 --> 01:01:12.559 I think Nick Crawl, for all of the criticism he 984 01:01:12.679 --> 01:01:15.559 has taken and at times deserved for how he has 985 01:01:15.639 --> 01:01:17.599 gone about doing his job. You know, if you go 986 01:01:17.760 --> 01:01:20.360 back to what they did this offseason, they acquired Gavin 987 01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:25.480 Lux and Jose Trevino and Austin Hayes and Brady Singer 988 01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:28.320 and Tanner Rodgers and Taylor Rodgers, and those have all 989 01:01:28.440 --> 01:01:32.239 been good acquisitions. You know, Austin Hayes hasn't been healthy 990 01:01:32.320 --> 01:01:34.079 that much, but when he has been healthy, he's been 991 01:01:34.199 --> 01:01:38.320 very good. And each of those players statistically has contributed. 992 01:01:38.960 --> 01:01:41.119 But the thing to me that mattered as much as 993 01:01:41.199 --> 01:01:45.320 anything was all of those guys came from teams that won. 994 01:01:45.519 --> 01:01:48.760 Gavin Lux was on the World champion Dodgers last season, 995 01:01:49.119 --> 01:01:52.639 Jose Travigni was on the American League champion Yankees. Austin 996 01:01:52.719 --> 01:01:55.360 Hayes last year played for two playoff teams. Brady Singer 997 01:01:55.400 --> 01:01:58.719 played for a playoff team. And so when the player's 998 01:01:58.840 --> 01:02:03.519 only meeting was called, who called it? Davin Lux, Jose Travino, 999 01:02:04.400 --> 01:02:06.960 guys who had been there before. And I think often 1000 01:02:07.079 --> 01:02:10.760 last season when the Reds were struggling, we wondered, you know, 1001 01:02:10.840 --> 01:02:13.320 who's the leader? Who are the guys that are sort 1002 01:02:13.360 --> 01:02:16.239 of rallying the troops, who are the guys setting an example. 1003 01:02:16.599 --> 01:02:19.559 They don't have anybody who's won before. I think the 1004 01:02:19.639 --> 01:02:24.559 fact that they prioritized getting players from teams. You know, 1005 01:02:24.679 --> 01:02:28.760 first they had to fit positionally and you needed players 1006 01:02:28.800 --> 01:02:32.920 who had a certain skill set. But getting players from 1007 01:02:33.000 --> 01:02:37.199 teams that had had success, I think was a big deal. 1008 01:02:37.320 --> 01:02:39.800 It was something they prioritized, and so when you heard 1009 01:02:39.800 --> 01:02:43.519 about the team meeting, my first thought was, there's the 1010 01:02:43.639 --> 01:02:47.320 payoff from getting players who had been in the postseason before. 1011 01:02:47.559 --> 01:02:50.719 And I think if you've watched the team, John Sadak 1012 01:02:50.800 --> 01:02:54.119 on TV mentioned this on that Saturday afternoon where they 1013 01:02:54.159 --> 01:02:56.079 played the Diamondbacks, that you know, you looked in the 1014 01:02:56.159 --> 01:02:58.480 dugout and you saw everybody was on the top step. 1015 01:02:58.880 --> 01:03:02.000 You saw players after they would score a run and 1016 01:03:02.039 --> 01:03:04.000 they would say something to the guy that was getting 1017 01:03:04.039 --> 01:03:06.519 ready to hit, maybe telling him something that he had 1018 01:03:06.519 --> 01:03:08.400 seen from the pitcher, that sort of thing. There has 1019 01:03:08.480 --> 01:03:12.159 been an energy about this team that I don't really 1020 01:03:12.199 --> 01:03:14.159 think was there over the first two months of the season. 1021 01:03:14.239 --> 01:03:16.119 And if you add to it some of their assets. 1022 01:03:16.880 --> 01:03:19.440 The starting pitching has been good all season long. Matt 1023 01:03:19.480 --> 01:03:22.440 McClain has started to hit more, which he didn't hit 1024 01:03:22.480 --> 01:03:24.559 it all in the first two months. Ellie de la 1025 01:03:24.639 --> 01:03:28.039 Cruz is the most productive shortstop in baseball. It's still 1026 01:03:28.119 --> 01:03:30.440 sometimes in adventure when he throws the ball to first base, 1027 01:03:30.840 --> 01:03:33.760 but he is. Over the last month he has been awesome. 1028 01:03:34.239 --> 01:03:38.360 They're a little bit healthier now, and I don't think 1029 01:03:38.400 --> 01:03:41.079 it's that far fest to suggest that in two months 1030 01:03:41.119 --> 01:03:43.960 and late August, we'll be talking about a team that 1031 01:03:44.000 --> 01:03:46.400 has a chance to play in September. And if that's 1032 01:03:46.480 --> 01:03:49.360 the case, I think that player's only meeting is going 1033 01:03:49.440 --> 01:03:50.800 to be looked at as the turning point. 1034 01:03:51.559 --> 01:03:57.159 Yeah, and just a little microcosm of that. Of course, 1035 01:03:57.320 --> 01:03:59.920 last night it was a special night for Nick Martinez. 1036 01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:04.079 You don't get within a you know, a couple of 1037 01:04:04.159 --> 01:04:06.719 outs of a no hitter in the ninth inning when 1038 01:04:06.760 --> 01:04:09.320 you were a starting pitcher anymore in the major leagues. 1039 01:04:09.360 --> 01:04:14.119 And he got there and then literally hit the wall 1040 01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:18.800 as the ball did, you know, And and they scored 1041 01:04:18.840 --> 01:04:22.119 the one run and got the double at the end 1042 01:04:22.119 --> 01:04:24.880 of the game, and Spencer Steer just had one of 1043 01:04:24.960 --> 01:04:28.519 those magical nights that he he may not have again 1044 01:04:28.599 --> 01:04:31.559 all season. But three home runs and three at bats, 1045 01:04:31.639 --> 01:04:33.920 I mean, come on, geez. 1046 01:04:34.639 --> 01:04:36.360 You know. I was at the game last night with 1047 01:04:36.440 --> 01:04:39.840 my daughter and as the Reds came to play it 1048 01:04:39.880 --> 01:04:42.639 in the bottom of the ninth inning, San Diego didn't 1049 01:04:42.679 --> 01:04:45.719 have a hit. Spencer Steer had three homers and was 1050 01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:49.199 coming to the plate for his fourth at that and 1051 01:04:49.400 --> 01:04:54.400 that was probably maybe her fifteenth game she had been to. 1052 01:04:54.519 --> 01:04:57.199 And I'm sitting there going, this kid has no idea 1053 01:04:57.719 --> 01:05:00.519 the team might see a guy hit four home runs 1054 01:05:01.239 --> 01:05:03.760 and his teammates throw a no hitter in the same game. 1055 01:05:05.639 --> 01:05:07.880 The four homers thing is actually, I think a little 1056 01:05:07.920 --> 01:05:10.639 bit more rare than the no hitter. Obviously neither happened, 1057 01:05:10.719 --> 01:05:14.280 but it was fun to watch. Nick Martinez has been 1058 01:05:14.320 --> 01:05:16.880 a really nice pickup, and you're happy for him. If 1059 01:05:16.920 --> 01:05:19.000 you remember the game last week when the Reds played 1060 01:05:19.039 --> 01:05:20.880 in Saint Louis and had to do a bullpen day 1061 01:05:21.360 --> 01:05:24.239 and Nick Martinez tells Terry francona, look, I'm available if 1062 01:05:24.239 --> 01:05:28.280 you need me. Team first guy, and it feels like 1063 01:05:28.360 --> 01:05:30.599 they have a bunch of guys who are also team first. 1064 01:05:30.800 --> 01:05:32.719 I have had a chance to spend a little time 1065 01:05:32.800 --> 01:05:36.440 with Spencer's year. That's a good good dude was rooting 1066 01:05:36.559 --> 01:05:38.039 like hell for him. He had his fourth home run 1067 01:05:38.159 --> 01:05:40.719 last night, But a three homer night's not all that bad, not. 1068 01:05:41.119 --> 01:05:44.480 Bad at all. Just like Austin Elmore stepped up and 1069 01:05:44.719 --> 01:05:48.079 was ready on Saturday morning last week while you were 1070 01:05:48.400 --> 01:05:52.599 enjoying your vacation, team guy, well that's what I thought. 1071 01:05:52.639 --> 01:05:54.440 I was going to be wally pipped. You know, I 1072 01:05:54.519 --> 01:05:54.840 didn't know. 1073 01:05:55.280 --> 01:05:59.880 So no, we're keeping you around as long as you'll 1074 01:05:59.880 --> 01:06:05.920 do it. Thanks. I appreciate it, all right, Counselor, Well, 1075 01:06:05.960 --> 01:06:07.559 you got to hit the mic there, you I know, 1076 01:06:07.920 --> 01:06:11.679 all right? You know what's up?
