25
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:17.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about the Marty gra benefiting the homeless children. I

26
00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>have the founding chairman for the Marty Grave event, Gordy,

27
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:24.000
<v Speaker 1>along with from Bethany House Peg and Jimmy who's the

28
00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:29.079

<v Speaker 1>There are things in the I'm a gourmont. I love food.

32
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:42.239
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in the kitchen. I love to cook.

33
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.439
<v Speaker 1>I like make my own meatballs. They don't touch these,

34
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>trust me. Thank you so much. I have really high

35
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:52.359
<v Speaker 1>expectations and standards. You've exceeded them. Man, these are great.

36
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Are you going to be serving these at the Marty

37
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:54.359
<v Speaker 1>Graus event.

38
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:56.599
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely if you're serving those at the Marty grav vents,

39
00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:58.719
<v Speaker 5>and I hope everybody enjoys them as much as you have.

40
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.439
<v Speaker 4>The imperfect even for me at least.

41
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Peg, Gordy, you guys had some of his meatballs yet.

42
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.159
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, okay, yeah good. I'm better get out there

43
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:08.159
<v Speaker 1>and get another one before they disappear. Food has a

44
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.520
<v Speaker 1>way of just evaporating around the studios here, all right?

45
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:16.439
<v Speaker 1>The website is what is it? Marty gra twent or

46
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:18.319
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five dot org. Do I have that right?

47
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:18.719
<v Speaker 6>You do?

48
00:02:18.919 --> 00:02:21.840
<v Speaker 7>Marty Graw twenty twenty five dot org, Brian, that's right.

49
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:25.639
<v Speaker 1>Now, it's benefiting homeless children. Let's talk about the ways

50
00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:28.360
<v Speaker 1>in which this event will benefit homeless children. We'll talk

51
00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>about sponsors and what we're going to see and do

52
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.560
<v Speaker 1>there and also the date. So who wants to cover

53
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:36.960
<v Speaker 1>the how how the benefit proceeds work, Because you guys

54
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:38.840
<v Speaker 1>have been at this for this is the thirty fourth

55
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:39.439
<v Speaker 1>year for this.

56
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:42.400
<v Speaker 7>All right. Peg is from Bethany House. Go ahead, Peeg.

57
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:47.039
<v Speaker 6>There's three organizations that serve homeless families in our region,

58
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:51.759
<v Speaker 6>Bright and Center, Welcome House and Bethany House. And we

59
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:54.400
<v Speaker 6>use the proceeds. We have a great party for a

60
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:58.479
<v Speaker 6>really good cause. We feed the children that we serve

61
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:02.319
<v Speaker 6>in these families with the proceeds, so it helps us

62
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:06.319
<v Speaker 6>feed children all year. Often families are homeless for almost

63
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:09.520
<v Speaker 6>a year before they get to shelter. On any given day,

64
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:13.319
<v Speaker 6>Bethany House has one hundred kids living in our emergency

65
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:16.479
<v Speaker 6>shelter trying to find a way. Their parents are finding

66
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:19.360
<v Speaker 6>a way to get rehoused, so we use this money

67
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 6>to feed them well.

68
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.960
<v Speaker 1>And I really appreciate your being here, and I'm aware

69
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:26.439
<v Speaker 1>of this homeless problem because I've talked to folks like

70
00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 1>Bethany House over the years. Explain to my lead listeners

71
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:31.840
<v Speaker 1>who might be in a state of disbelief that there

72
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:35.159
<v Speaker 1>are really homeless children out there, because I think quite

73
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>often people think of the homeless person as you know,

74
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:39.960
<v Speaker 1>the vagrant sort of in a corner in an alleyway,

75
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:43.400
<v Speaker 1>probably drug addicted or maybe hate suffering from some cognitive

76
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:46.439
<v Speaker 1>struggles or psychological problems. But that's not the case that

77
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:48.919
<v Speaker 1>we're usually talking about here, though, is it right.

78
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 6>Family homelessness is really a hidden problem because parents will,

79
00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:56.919
<v Speaker 6>as we know, parents will do anything to keep their

80
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:01.120
<v Speaker 6>kids safe, and so they'll find a stairwell in an

81
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:05.800
<v Speaker 6>apartment house where they can live under, maybe a storage unit,

82
00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:12.520
<v Speaker 6>a shelter at a state park or city park. They'll

83
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:18.800
<v Speaker 6>find lots of places where they can sleep and coexist

84
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:22.360
<v Speaker 6>with whatever else is going on. In the area and

85
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:23.600
<v Speaker 6>their kids will be safe well.

86
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:25.399
<v Speaker 3>And from my understanding, correct me if I'm wrong.

87
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Quite often this is almost like a spur of the

88
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:31.720
<v Speaker 1>moment homelessness because they live in a dangerous situation at home.

89
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they're an abusive relationship situation Mom grabs a jam bag,

90
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.360
<v Speaker 1>grabs the kids and just heads out. Really maybe with

91
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:39.079
<v Speaker 1>no destination.

92
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:44.800
<v Speaker 6>A lot of our parents are escaping abusive relationships. Many

93
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:47.680
<v Speaker 6>are just can't afford the rent anymore. And if you

94
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:52.600
<v Speaker 6>have a high medical bill that you didn't have insurance for,

95
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:55.360
<v Speaker 6>or a car repair and you had to get the

96
00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:57.439
<v Speaker 6>car fixed so that you could get to your job,

97
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.399
<v Speaker 6>you might not have enough money for the rent. And

98
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:04.879
<v Speaker 6>then and of course in our area, rent has exponentially

99
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:06.920
<v Speaker 6>increased since COVID.

100
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:10.639
<v Speaker 1>Now do you put these families, these children, and these

101
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:14.680
<v Speaker 1>mothers in touch with organizations that might be able to

102
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.199
<v Speaker 1>help them out to deal with those challenges. I immediately

103
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:19.040
<v Speaker 1>think of the Help Squad over on the West Side,

104
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:21.759
<v Speaker 1>because sometimes women will come to them and like they

105
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 1>can't make that rent payment, they need that one month assistance,

106
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>or they're going to find themselves in this situation. Help Squad,

107
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.160
<v Speaker 1>you know that's them and we'll get them the money. Yeah, here,

108
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.399
<v Speaker 1>we're helping you out this month. Or in one case,

109
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>they actually bought this poor woman who had to drive

110
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:37.879
<v Speaker 1>be on a bus three hours a day to get

111
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>to her job.

112
00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:39.759
<v Speaker 3>Right, they got her a car.

113
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:40.680
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

114
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:44.360
<v Speaker 6>It's incredible, you know, because if you have to get

115
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.480
<v Speaker 6>your kids to day care or to school and then

116
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.240
<v Speaker 6>get to your job, that could be a three hour

117
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:51.480
<v Speaker 6>bus ride, yes, ma'am. So there's lots of organizations Saint

118
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:57.560
<v Speaker 6>Bencent to Paul Community Action agencies. Each of the three

119
00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:02.240
<v Speaker 6>agencies I mentioned Bethany House included we raise funds so

120
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:05.319
<v Speaker 6>we can provide a little bit of financial assistance to

121
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:08.279
<v Speaker 6>help smooth those barriers, all right.

122
00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:10.519
<v Speaker 1>And one of the ways you raise funds and it's

123
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 1>been wildly successful, thirty fourth annual Culinary Celebration. It's the

124
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:18.399
<v Speaker 1>Marti grav benefiting the homeless. I'll turn to you, Gordy,

125
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:21.040
<v Speaker 1>founding chairman, been at this a long time. Let my

126
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 1>listeners know how much money you put together with this

127
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:24.399
<v Speaker 1>event over the years.

128
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:26.759
<v Speaker 7>Well, so far we've raised two point seven to three

129
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:30.560
<v Speaker 7>Brian two point three seven three million dollars. That's amazing,

130
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:33.399
<v Speaker 7>and we're hoping to raise about two hundred thousand this year,

131
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:35.879
<v Speaker 7>so that's our goal this year. We'll see see if

132
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:37.800
<v Speaker 7>we can get everybody there that night to help us

133
00:06:37.879 --> 00:06:40.600
<v Speaker 7>raise some money. We have a silent auction, a live auction,

134
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.319
<v Speaker 7>and just a really big party for everybody to come.

135
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:46.120
<v Speaker 1>A great celebratory event. What day is it? What day

136
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.000
<v Speaker 1>is it? We'll learn about the details on it, the where,

137
00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:50.319
<v Speaker 1>the when, the why, the house. So what win is

138
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the date we need to mark down on our calendar.

139
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:56.240
<v Speaker 7>So it's Tuesday, February eighteenth. It's early this year. Normally

140
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:59.879
<v Speaker 7>Fat Tuesday is March fourth this year, but we we

141
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.839
<v Speaker 7>didn't get the spacebook at the convention center because of

142
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.839
<v Speaker 7>Cincinnati shutting down and Cincinnati Convention Center took all the

143
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:08.560
<v Speaker 7>space at Northern Kentucky. So anyway, we had to move

144
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:10.120
<v Speaker 7>it up a little bit. So it's two weeks earlier,

145
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:13.639
<v Speaker 7>February eighteenth. We'll call it to Tasty Tuesday this year.

146
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:16.480
<v Speaker 7>So at any rate, it's it's going to be five

147
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:20.360
<v Speaker 7>thirty to ten o'clock at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center

148
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:22.839
<v Speaker 7>this year. We've got free parking right across the street

149
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:23.839
<v Speaker 7>in the Kenton County.

150
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:25.120
<v Speaker 3>Well that's an improvement.

151
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:27.959
<v Speaker 7>So yeah, yeah, well, you know it was a tough.

152
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:29.519
<v Speaker 7>It was tough for everybody to when they wanted to

153
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 7>come to the event to find a place to park.

154
