WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.160 Thank you, Joe. It is eight oh four here Kentucky. 2 00:00:02.279 --> 00:00:04.440 This Morning News with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight 3 00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:09.279 forty whas maybe a little late mentioning this. I mean 4 00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:11.160 I've mentioned it throughout the morning, but I don't know. 5 00:00:11.199 --> 00:00:13.119 It's eight oh four here, so maybe there are some 6 00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:15.439 that are just now getting ready to get their day started. 7 00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:18.719 Everybody's schedules different, but a reminder that Phase two of 8 00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:22.640 the routine inspections of the Clark Memorial Bridge is scheduled 9 00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:24.879 to begin today. In Phase two is believed to be 10 00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:28.160 one that will and will cast some more traffic delays 11 00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:30.600 than Phase one, So just just keep that in mind. 12 00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:33.240 If you're somebody that finds yourself on the Clark Memorial 13 00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:35.799 Bridge at any point throughout your daily commute, you could 14 00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:38.520 have a little bit of traffic and that's no fun 15 00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.240 for anybody. But maybe maybe I've given you a heads 16 00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:43.159 up to now you know to leave earlier. You're probably 17 00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:45.159 not happy about that, but hey, if I can help 18 00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:48.240 anybody avoid traffic, that's a good thing, right at least 19 00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:50.200 I choose to believe that it is a good thing. 20 00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:52.280 I hear that from folks all the time. It's amazing 21 00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:53.159 with this technology. 22 00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:55.640 We have nick that they'll tell us either hey, thank 23 00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:58.600 Bobby Ellis or thank you, thank you guys for letting 24 00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:01.039 me know that that was blocked off, because I definitely 25 00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:01.920 would have went that way. 26 00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:05.280 Oh yeah, when you I would say most people who 27 00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:08.560 have had the same commute for a while, even if 28 00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:10.640 you're kind of you know, not sleeping because you're driving, 29 00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:12.840 we got to be safe. But maybe you're you're on 30 00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:15.519 autopilot a little bit there you hear of an incident 31 00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.519 and you hear a road, a bridge, a street that 32 00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:19.959 you know that that is a part of your path, 33 00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:22.319 and you know, hopefully you can make arrangements and avoid 34 00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:24.959 a longer delay. All right, So we've been very busy 35 00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:28.879 this morning reacting to a big weekend. It really started 36 00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:34.159 with Friday evening Saturday morning news. That is horrific and 37 00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:37.840 that is the assassination that took place. I mean, that's 38 00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:43.560 that's quite literally exactly what it was. And you had 39 00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:48.000 a a senator. Yeah, let's see. So the guy his 40 00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:49.640 name I don't think I've mentioned yet this morning, not 41 00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:54.239 that it's you know, it's out there, but the suspect 42 00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:57.959 is Vance Luther Bolter. He's the fifty fifty seven year 43 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:03.599 old Minnesota man who is accused of killing a state representative, 44 00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.840 Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. They were fatally shot 45 00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:09.159 at their home in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. That took place 46 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:13.560 at three point thirty five on Saturday morning. And then 47 00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:16.759 thankfully they're going to survive. But State Senator John Hoffman 48 00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:19.240 and his wife Avett, they were shot at their home 49 00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:22.719 and it's about nine miles away from where the other 50 00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.919 shooting took place, and they both survived. And it sounds 51 00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:29.560 like their shooting actually was first, that took place before 52 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:33.039 the second shooting that of course did take the lives 53 00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:37.240 of those two in Brooklyn Park, Mark Hortman and Melissa Hortman. 54 00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:41.159 So last night they were able to capture this suspect 55 00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:43.439 with the help of somebody who had a trail cam 56 00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.120 set up within I guess, I don't know. I don't 57 00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:47.840 know the exact distance. We'll talk to Rory O'Neil of 58 00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:49.719 NBC New sot'll join us coming up at eight thirty. 59 00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:53.080 We'll get the specifics on this. But yeah, just an 60 00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:56.080 awful situation that of course led to a lot of 61 00:02:56.120 --> 00:02:58.680 the protests that were planned to take place in Minnesota. 62 00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:01.159 A lot of those did not happen because obviously they 63 00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:05.719 were on I mean, they had all resources available looking 64 00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:08.879 for this suspect, and thankfully last night they were able 65 00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:13.800 to tap rand him. But he will he's doing court today, 66 00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:16.639 so we'll see what comes from that, and we'll see 67 00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:20.439 if this individual is willing to talk. Not that there's 68 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:24.639 any words that could justify his actions, but maybe he 69 00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:28.319 can he can share. Again, I don't think I'm trying 70 00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.439 to walk down the line here of maybe he'll give 71 00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:32.800 us some type of reason that will at least make 72 00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:35.039 it make sense. But I'm not really sure that's possible. 73 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.360 But clearly, I think it's it's human nature to one 74 00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:42.159 understand the motive that could bring somebody to do something 75 00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.919 like that. So there's obviously some noise out there that 76 00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:49.719 he's very much He was very upset about these folks 77 00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:53.319 who he killed and attempted to kill, the others their 78 00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:56.280 their stance on abortion. So again we'll talk to Rory 79 00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:59.599 O'Neil coming up here at about eight thirty. Also, there 80 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.800 were many protests across the country, the no Kings protests, 81 00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:05.800 and Louisville had won and it got up to about 82 00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:08.840 four thousand people. That's the estimated crowd that showed up 83 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:12.400 downtown Louisville. It went on from noon to four pm 84 00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.639 out at Jefferson Square Park on Jefferson Street near Metro 85 00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:20.920 City Hall, and I felt like, just comparing the footage 86 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:23.720 the pictures, it seemed as if there was a lot 87 00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:28.319 more folks here in this area than I would have expected. Maybe, 88 00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:32.199 you know, maybe the exact number four thousand is not 89 00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.680 large compared to what took place in other cities, and 90 00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:37.160 really that's not relevant. But what I think is the 91 00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:39.360 takeaway for me, and I'm only speaking for myself here, 92 00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:42.920 is that he had four thousand people out protesting, and 93 00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.600 yet they were able to do what they wanted to do. 94 00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:49.439 And it ended at four pm and nobody was arrested. 95 00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:52.120 And I hate to say that I was expecting people 96 00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.240 to be arrested, but I don't think anybody would have 97 00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.600 been totally stunned if at least a couple ended up 98 00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:59.759 maybe getting putting handcuffs taken to jail, because they did 99 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.600 cross that line of of it going from peaceful to 100 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:08.120 not peaceful. So regardless of where you stand on the 101 00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:11.199 protesting meaning what people are protesting about, meaning if they 102 00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:13.800 should even have the ability to do it where they've 103 00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:16.120 blocked off streets to where you can't because everybody, you know, 104 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:18.480 everybody's got their own opinion. I'm not here to try 105 00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:21.279 to change yours, but I think collectively, wouldn't it be 106 00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.160 an obvious thing to say that with nobody getting arrested, 107 00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:27.319 that's the best case scenario, right. I mean, you don't 108 00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.800 want to be a city that ends up being one 109 00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:32.240 of the three to four where they really highlight what 110 00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:34.959 went on with the protests in your city, because it 111 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:37.560 did cross the line, it did get to a point where, 112 00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.399 you know, I used this example earlier. A lot of 113 00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:42.720 a lot of law enforcement across the country they utilize 114 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.079 horses to, you know, to get around, especially for things 115 00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:48.000 like this, and you know, you put your hand on 116 00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:50.800 a horse, that's a cop. You can't do that. I mean, 117 00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:52.120 you're you're asking to get arrested. 118 00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:53.879 Horses are pretty big characters too. 119 00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:56.759 Yeah, so you would think I'll be interested maybe next 120 00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:59.240 time you sit down with Dwight Mitchell from the LMPD 121 00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.959 talk about some lessons learned not just from a physical standpoint, 122 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:06.240 but in crowd control. Yeah, what we learned during Brown 123 00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:09.319 and Taylor and what we've learned from other police departments 124 00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:12.959 around the country, because when it comes to protesting, goes 125 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:16.360 much beyond. It goes further beyond just the physical let's 126 00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:19.399 block off streets and keep people restrained. There's a mental 127 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.000 approach to this that seems to work. 128 00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:25.519 Yeah, And I think to your point, I mean, when 129 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.360 it comes to the level in which you will engage 130 00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:32.279 as an officer with somebody protesting, I'm sure they learned 131 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:34.959 a lot because you know, there's nothing wrong with engaging 132 00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:37.720 in them. But you also may have training that tells 133 00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:40.800 you but really is no there's no need to really 134 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.600 have a you know, do your job, answer questions that 135 00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:45.240 need to be answered. But you know, there's really not 136 00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:46.959 a whole lot of good that may come from somebody 137 00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:49.199 that's just screaming at you, trying to antagonize you, because 138 00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:51.160 some people do that. And what I do like to 139 00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:53.079 remind folks every now and then, which I think is 140 00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:56.800 an obvious these people are human beings. Law enforcement. They 141 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:58.920 are they they want to wrap up work and go 142 00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:00.920 home to their families, like that's what a lot of 143 00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:02.519 them do. So I think there's so many that just 144 00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:07.040 don't humanize law enforcement. And I wish that wasn't the case, 145 00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:07.319 but it. 146 00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:07.920 Is all right. 147 00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.319 We got an update of traffic and weather coming your 148 00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:13.600 way again. Sports will be with Scott coming up about 149 00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:15.240 eight twenty five, and then we'll talk to Rory and 150 00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:17.439 Neil of NBC News. So stick around right here on 151 00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:22.279 news Radio eight forty whas it is eight seventeen here 152 00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:25.639 at Kentuckyana's morning news on News Radio eight forty whas 153 00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:27.839 Nick coffee with you, getting the week started. Hopefully you 154 00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:29.920 guys had a good weekend. I know it was a 155 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.839 busy weekend, a lot to react to, and that's exactly 156 00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:35.319 what we've been doing so far this morning. You'll have 157 00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.439 another update of sports coming your way with Scott in 158 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:40.360 about eight minutes. But one thing that I believe has 159 00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:42.480 certainly been in the news, but maybe it's just me 160 00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:45.560 that feels like it's a bigger deal than others or 161 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:47.680 and again, everybody's got their own opinion on things. But 162 00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:51.120 to see that there has already been an adjustment made 163 00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:53.600 as far as what Donald Trump is tasking Ice to 164 00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.680 do as far as these immigration raids, I think that's 165 00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:00.439 pretty telling. But also, you know, not real surprise, to 166 00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:03.279 be honest with you, but what what is with the 167 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.240 change is is that these these raids that have been 168 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:09.279 taking place for quite some time with ICE, they now 169 00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:13.600 have been advised to no longer have these raids take 170 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:19.240 place at farms, hotels and restaurants. So this is to me, 171 00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:24.000 it's almost an acknowledgment of you either didn't think it 172 00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.240 through or you were wrong. I doubt we'll ever hear 173 00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:29.720 that said from right from from from Donald Trump. But 174 00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:33.440 whenever you've got you're having to make an adjustment here 175 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:37.399 to where you're still allowed, meaning if you're ICE to 176 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:42.159 to have these raids take place at factories and in 177 00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:45.200 the streets and whatnot. But yet you're now saying, hey, 178 00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:48.600 we need to stop rating places that rely heavily on 179 00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:51.759 migrant labor. I mean, did you not realize that those 180 00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:56.799 industries like hotels, farms, and restaurants relied on migrant labor. 181 00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:58.840 I thought that was a no brainer. And I would 182 00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.840 assume that when when you put this plan in motion 183 00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:07.799 and you execute and have it be such a priority, 184 00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:10.320 that you would be aware that you're going to be 185 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:14.759 rating places where if these businesses, industries really not just 186 00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:19.159 one specific business, but industries rely upon migrant labor. Whenever 187 00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:22.879 those people are snatched up and deported, that's going to 188 00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:26.759 impact the economy. So you're still going to see these again. 189 00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:30.240 This is from CBS News. They say two officials tell 190 00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:34.960 CBS News that the sudden shift follows complaints from growers, hotels, 191 00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:38.320 and trade groups who fear losing staff during peak peak 192 00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:40.960 summer demand. The pause does not affect the ongoing raids 193 00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.519 at factories or on city streets, but it halts plan 194 00:09:44.639 --> 00:09:48.120 sweeps of hundreds of food service and hospitality sites. All 195 00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:51.840 the agency reviews the economic impact here. So the change again, 196 00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:55.759 it's a sharp pivot for the Trump administration, which has 197 00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:59.879 vowed very much, blatantly, in your face almost that they 198 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:04.159 will deport millions and and they and they don't they 199 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:05.960 don't care if you're here illegally. You got to go 200 00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:10.120 well until until you truly. I mean, this is an 201 00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:13.679 acknowledgment that by the administration that we do in fact 202 00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:16.519 rely on these people more than they wanted us to believe. 203 00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:18.759 It seems well, and we've seen this before from the 204 00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:19.759 Trump administration. 205 00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.919 They go real hard one way and then come back 206 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:25.240 the other way, and it just TikTok. 207 00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:27.559 For example, I was going to shut it down. 208 00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:29.200 Then all of a sudden, I realed it just wonders 209 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:32.799 if some of these lobbyists have gotten to folks in 210 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:35.440 the Trump administration said hey, you might want to rethink this. 211 00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:37.879 A lot of political donors got to them and said, look, 212 00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:39.159 I need these people. 213 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:41.039 I don't know who it is, and I wouldn't be 214 00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:43.519 the one that would know. But there's no doubt there's 215 00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:46.120 some with the ability when they pick up the phone 216 00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:49.320 and make a call, there's there's there's much more light, 217 00:10:49.399 --> 00:10:52.080 there's there's a much better chance of something changing. Yeah, 218 00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.799 and whoever that is, right, whoever they are, clearly they 219 00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:57.759 got involved here because again this is a sharp pivot, 220 00:10:57.799 --> 00:10:59.919 no doubt. All right, let's get an update of traff 221 00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:02.080 and weather, and then we'll get an update on sports 222 00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:04.240 with Scott right here on news radio eight forty WHAS 223 00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:08.519 eight forty seven here Kentucky This Morning, News news Radio 224 00:11:08.519 --> 00:11:11.320 eight forty w h A s look with the cat 225 00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:14.080 drug in.

So we would see Mission impossible. 261 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:30.720 How was it? 262 00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:35.080 Oh dude, he's Tom Cruise is just a movie star. 263 00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.279 He knows how to do it. Man, it's three hours 264 00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:38.840 of crazy. 265 00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:44.159 So Tom Cruise is one of the rare and last 266 00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:49.120 remaining big time big name actors that still does a 267 00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:53.080 lot of the stunts himself. Like do people realize that, Yes, 268 00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:56.159 they do. It's his big calling card. So when you 269 00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:59.039 see the last little plane, you know he's there's two 270 00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:01.240 biplanes and he on one and he's got to get 271 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:03.799 on the other. You know it's all him because it's 272 00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:06.279 all close ups of him on this plane. It's crazy. 273 00:13:06.320 --> 00:13:08.240 And actually it went too long to you're like, all right, 274 00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:09.600 get to the other plane, let's get this thing. 275 00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:10.360 It was just showing off. 276 00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:10.879 Huh yeah. 277 00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:12.679 So yeah, it says he jumped from a plane with 278 00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:16.200 a parachute soaked inflammable liquid. Yes, ignited mid air. He 279 00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:18.840 did it sixteen times. Yep, I guess toget. That scene 280 00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:22.360 was incredible. It was incredible. That's him. 281 00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:26.879 Doing that. It's nuts. It's nuts, so it's worth the money. 282 00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:28.919 It is three hours of entertainment. 283 00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:31.679 Let me ask you this. Do we claim him? It's 284 00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:34.799 always been foggy to me. He is he Louisville? Is 285 00:13:34.840 --> 00:13:35.120 he not? 286 00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:37.879 He addressed it at the Oscars a couple of years ago. Okay, 287 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:40.000 he said, I've lived in a lot of places, and 288 00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:42.519 he named three or four places, and one was Louisville, 289 00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:46.120 because I lived in Louisville, Kentucky for three years. He 290 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:47.879 went to St. Axe, he wrestled for Saint X. So 291 00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:50.840 he he did claim us to a certain point. 292 00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:53.000 Well, then I think we should claim him, right absolutely, 293 00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:54.039 he's you throw it. 294 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:57.279 Johnny Depp is Johnny Depp is that Owensborough, Owensboro. 295 00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:02.360 And then George Clooneyloney is Maysville, real small area, Mason County. 296 00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:06.039 Don't forget the Hutcherson's and the Jerson and then Jennifer Lawrence. 297 00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:09.360 Yeah, Jennifer Lawrence, I mean you throw in. Let's just 298 00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:12.080 say Louisville specifically, if we're I mean, if we have 299 00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:14.840 some level of ability to claim Tom Cruise, and we 300 00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:17.960 certainly know Jennifer Lawrence is the Louivillion I mean that's 301 00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:19.320 a good thing about us. 302 00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:23.960 She was the top billing female actors for about five years. 303 00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:27.799 Tom Cruise has been that forever. George Clooney was the 304 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:32.720 guy for ten fifteen years. So think about it. 305 00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:36.360 Clooney wasn't probably still is, but he was a level 306 00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:38.759 of famous that was just different, you know what I mean, 307 00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:40.399 Like he was in the tier of just like. 308 00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:46.399 But here's the key. He has been single forever, right, 309 00:14:47.039 --> 00:14:49.360 and no kids basically because I don't know what even 310 00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:52.240 his relationship with the daughter of because all that scientology stuff. 311 00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:55.840 This guy controls every aspect of his life in every movie. 312 00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:58.879 And when you have that weight that you're talented, smart 313 00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:02.440 and willing to work harder than anywhere else on the set, 314 00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:05.840 and you do that with an unlimited budget, you get 315 00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:09.120 movies like Mission Impossible, which are which are great movies. Man, 316 00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.200 They're not terrible, they're good movies. It's fun. 317 00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:15.240 So was it Clooney who at one point, like it 318 00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:17.360 became news that he had a party and he just 319 00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:19.960 gave all of his close friends at the party like 320 00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:21.519 millions of dollars. Have you heard that? Stung? 321 00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:24.960 Yeah? I mean, well you make that much money, yeah, 322 00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:26.480 and you come from. 323 00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:28.720 Like, that's so when you know you can there's no 324 00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:32.360 there's nothing you really can't purchase. So therefore maybe the 325 00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:36.480 new satisfaction is to like, it's not bringing home something 326 00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:38.759 that you paid a ton of money for, it's giving 327 00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.080 money to people because you know you've already spent enough 328 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:44.480 to where you you no longer get satisfied by making 329 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:47.000 a big lavish purchase. And he's I can't relate. 330 00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:50.879 And you grew up with Henry uh Henry French friend, 331 00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:53.639 Heather Frind Henry Heather French Henry, so they were kids 332 00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:57.559 together in the same area. It's more northern Kentucky. But yeah, 333 00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:00.600 but think about it. Johnny Depp, George Clooney for Lawrence 334 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:01.759 and now we now we. 335 00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:05.120 Actually have movies that are being being filmed in Louisville 336 00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:08.240 because of the big push with you know, getting the 337 00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:10.559 set up at the Bolval Gardens, which is now going 338 00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:12.080 to mean that's just going to bring even more of 339 00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:15.720 those projects. So good stuff. Did you see what happened 340 00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:18.440 right as soon as you hit the airwaves on Friday 341 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:22.480 that that semi truck hanging off the I mean it 342 00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:24.159 was it was during while the mayor was on the 343 00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:26.159 air with us. Yes, okay, so I knew that. I 344 00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:28.159 knew the timing had to align a little bit, which, 345 00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:30.799 by the way, that was great. Yeah, with his sons 346 00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:32.559 and the family. Yeah, that was a good way to 347 00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:34.879 get a good way to get Father's Day weekend started. 348 00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:37.639 Is Dwight with you today or is he still he's here, 349 00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.440 He'll hobble in here in a second.
