Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham, the Great America. Welcome with Wednesday afteroon in
Speaker 1: the Try Shake and the Super bowls coming up by
Speaker 1: course in four or five days. Bengals should be there.
Speaker 1: But nonetheless, Liz Bonus' is a medical wellness reporter of
Speaker 1: Channel twelve WKRC. Lots of good information about what to do,
Speaker 1: what not to do on the Super Bowl and so
Speaker 1: much more. And Liz Bonus, welcome again to the Bill
Speaker 1: Cunningham Show. And first of all, all of us are
Speaker 1: very upset with the fact that Bengals are not there.
Speaker 1: Maybe one day they'll be back, but who knows. But
Speaker 1: let's face it, I read so much about Super Bowl parties,
Speaker 1: what not? D What is your research shown, if anything?
Speaker 2: All right, So we got two cool things on the
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. We need to start with one before the other,
Speaker 2: because I don't think you're going to want to hear
Speaker 2: about this after food. Have you heard about this whole
Speaker 2: pe anxiety thing.
Speaker 1: I've read it. I kind of disregarded it, but you're
Speaker 1: in disposal. Pee anxiety is a real thing. I know.
Speaker 1: Tony Bender tells me he often has the same issue
Speaker 1: during the game. Explain what that is.
Speaker 2: So they said that about a third of us they
Speaker 2: go to the bathroom at halftime, and then they map
Speaker 2: out a game strategy for when to go to the
Speaker 2: bathroom and as a consequence for like holding our bladders,
Speaker 2: and it gives us pee anxiety. We actually will not
Speaker 2: go in the last two minutes of the game. And
Speaker 2: it's so much so like I'm talking to the Eurology
Speaker 2: group about this today because they really say, this is
Speaker 2: not good for any of us, that we should be
Speaker 2: sitting around worrying about when we can pee in a
Speaker 2: game that the Bengals are not even in.
Speaker 3: Don't you think that's true.
Speaker 1: I don't have it myself when the Bengals were in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Yes, when Coop and others were making
Speaker 1: those catches against the Rams, yes, I had pea anxiety.
Speaker 1: Not had it sense, But it's a real thing, correct, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't.
Speaker 2: Realize that there was a name for it. And they
Speaker 2: say that more than half of us feel anxious when
Speaker 2: we're stuck in a situation that keeps us from using
Speaker 2: the restroom, and we consider Super Bowl Sunday in the
Speaker 2: game one of those pee anxiety times. I'm like, my goodness,
Speaker 2: who knew?
Speaker 1: What about the caloric intake? I know many of us
Speaker 1: are concerned. You're binging before, binging, during, binging after and
Speaker 1: this Super Bowl because the Chiefs and Eagles are involved,
Speaker 1: which they've been involved too in the last three I
Speaker 1: understand that the ticket scalping's way down, the viewership maybe down,
Speaker 1: who knows, But what about the diet? What about what?
Speaker 4: What not?
Speaker 5: Dat?
Speaker 1: How much caloric intake? Should you schedule? Things like that?
Speaker 2: So I honestly think that this year the most exciting
Speaker 2: thing will be the food. Make a good Super Bowl
Speaker 2: party because I can't tell you that the game's going
Speaker 2: to hold your interest, you know, especially we.
Speaker 3: Don't have a stake in it. But it just feels like,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I know some people want the Chiefs to have the
Speaker 2: third repeat and other people don't, and you know, so
Speaker 2: focus on the food.
Speaker 3: It's a good thing.
Speaker 2: But what's interesting is when you start looking at surveys,
Speaker 2: we get as many, according to some as eleven thousand
Speaker 2: calories that day, and it's recommended you get no more
Speaker 2: than about two thousands of a day. So second biggest
Speaker 2: eating day after Thanksgiving, where do you think most of
Speaker 2: the calories come from?
Speaker 1: I would think they come from chips and popcorn and
Speaker 1: drinks and beer and guacamla and all that stuff.
Speaker 2: So the topper is our pizza and wings get literally
Speaker 2: you get about ten grams of fat in every wing,
Speaker 2: which means you get one hundred calories per wing. And
Speaker 2: you know, I have spent years researching this. I think
Speaker 2: I told her I got my first radio job because
Speaker 2: they were like, tell me something interesting about food. And
Speaker 2: I was like, did you know that last year we
Speaker 2: ate enough chicken wings that if you line them up,
Speaker 2: they would stretch from New York to Disney World. And
Speaker 2: they're like, you should be on the morning show translation
Speaker 2: you have no life, you know. And I'm like, it's true.
Speaker 2: We don't realize, like they just kind of suck them down,
Speaker 2: you know, and you have the I don't know whether
Speaker 2: you like the tops or the bottoms of whatever. Those
Speaker 2: things can kind of slide in. You don't even realize
Speaker 2: you got thousand calories and wings before you even started
Speaker 2: the den. You know what else will do that to you?
Speaker 2: Which is fascinating to me? And I love these deviled eggs.
Speaker 2: Did you ever notice how you can eat like sixteen
Speaker 2: deviled eggs, but you could never eat sixteen eggs in
Speaker 2: an omelet.
Speaker 1: No, why is that?
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2: I've been actually fascinated by that. Like I love deviled
Speaker 2: eggs and I can suck them down, like you know,
Speaker 2: why is it that like it does that? And yet
Speaker 2: I would never like open a dozen eggs and make
Speaker 2: them for my omelet. They're so good. I think they're
Speaker 2: just they're like slithery and they just go down easy,
Speaker 2: And I justify it because it's time protein. But I've
Speaker 2: been working on the deviled eggs, perfecting recipes. The secret
Speaker 2: is you need to put a little mustard in the
Speaker 2: inside egg, you know, when you make them filling little
Speaker 2: male little mustard, little bill pickle fee seasonings.
Speaker 3: Oh the bot.
Speaker 2: Either way, do you know why we eat so much
Speaker 2: on Super Bowl Sunday Because we drink so much?
Speaker 1: So eating is not drinking. If you if you don't
Speaker 1: want to eat a lot, don't drink a lot.
Speaker 2: No, this is actually fascinating. So I always thought, like,
Speaker 2: you know, when you gain the freshman fifteen when you
Speaker 2: go to college, it was because like y'all start drinking.
Speaker 5: But actually what.
Speaker 2: They found is that when you start drinking, you don't
Speaker 2: care what you eat. So most of us start drinking
Speaker 2: like noon and the games at six thirty, and so
Speaker 2: you know, you have a couple, then you have a
Speaker 2: couple of Pretty soon you're like, I don't care.
Speaker 3: What I'm eating. I'm seating because I'm eating, you know.
Speaker 2: And it's fascinating when you actually have less alcohol. I thought, oh,
Speaker 2: fewer calories, but that's not what they say makes the difference.
Speaker 2: What makes the difference is that you just lose all
Speaker 2: your sense of judgment and do.
Speaker 3: Things and eat things or whatever.
Speaker 2: That you wouldn't so really do so if you want
Speaker 2: to cut down the calories, which I find fascinating because
Speaker 2: this year they're actually having oh, zem pick Super Bowl parties.
Speaker 3: Did you know that?
Speaker 1: I never heard of that one.
Speaker 2: Yes, ozempics. So many people are on these weight loss
Speaker 2: medicines that for the first year, year to year obesity
Speaker 2: stats are down, and it's sad. It's not because we're
Speaker 2: eating less and exercising more. It's because we're all taking drugs.
Speaker 3: So a lot of people are on these.
Speaker 2: They don't want to blow the whole day and you're
Speaker 2: not really supposed to have much alcohol with the ozentpic thing.
Speaker 2: I know everybody does, but it delays the gastric emptying,
Speaker 2: so putting alcohol in there is not a good fit.
Speaker 2: You can like pass out and stuff. But so they're
Speaker 2: doing like a lot more non alcoholic drinks to get
Speaker 2: you started, which you can do with sprinzers and all that.
Speaker 2: They're doing more high protein foods. You know, if you look,
Speaker 2: you'll see all kinds of Super Bowl recipes now for
Speaker 2: the high pro, the zero the ozepic.
Speaker 3: Diet, whatever it is.
Speaker 2: And then a lot of people are just saying like, Okay,
Speaker 2: we're not starting our meal until four pm, because what
Speaker 2: happens is that as you eat for six hours, you
Speaker 2: lose all sense of your hunger signals. And the whole
Speaker 2: point of ozembic is it makes you less hungry because
Speaker 2: it's delayed the gastric empty. So just the thought if
Speaker 2: someone in your circle is trying to watch it, a
Speaker 2: few things that could help. I personally think, if you
Speaker 2: want to eat what you want to eat on one day,
Speaker 2: that's not usually the problem. It's what are you doing
Speaker 2: the other three hundred and sixty four.
Speaker 1: Right and the other thing you've done? This topics on
Speaker 1: when to eat, and I try to consume food before
Speaker 1: six or six thirty or seven. I go to sleep
Speaker 1: maybe at midnight or one o'clock, but if you're filling
Speaker 1: up your belly at the end of the game, which
Speaker 1: is like ten PM or ten thirty, you may have
Speaker 1: a rough night.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Speaker 2: I do think eating earlier is once gentler on the
Speaker 2: whole system, and I think you sleep better. And you know,
Speaker 2: it's kind of like giving your car full think of
Speaker 2: gas after you've driven the long trip. You don't really
Speaker 2: need it at midnight. But I also think it's interesting
Speaker 2: that sometimes how well your team is doing will influence like,
Speaker 2: oh well, I might as well just eat because my
Speaker 2: team's going to lose anyway.
Speaker 3: Which I think is really fast. That connected.
Speaker 1: Yeah, with the Reds and Bengals, we've all been there. Now.
Speaker 1: The issue to the rage the last couple of days
Speaker 1: is the new pain medicine has been approved by the
Speaker 1: FDA that doesn't involve opioid, does involve some sort of
Speaker 1: addiction issue, and it really attacks the pain sensors at
Speaker 1: the side of the pain instead of going to your brain.
Speaker 1: Could that be a game change? You're about people that
Speaker 1: using various drugs to get high or low, and that
Speaker 1: this new pain medication could be really a plus, you know,
Speaker 1: from the.
Speaker 2: Research that I'm reading, it could be. It's called Vertex
Speaker 2: and it's the non opioid pain drug, And as you said,
Speaker 2: what it does is it goes to the signals and
Speaker 2: the nerves, which is usually where you're having pain, you know,
Speaker 2: your hip, your back, whatever, not in the brain or
Speaker 2: its reward pathway. And the reward pathway is the secret.
Speaker 2: The question I always have because they say that like
Speaker 2: about one in three who tries an opioid for search
Speaker 2: will get hooked. The question I have is, you know,
Speaker 2: are those same people still going to be in search
Speaker 2: of something because you know, you probably had surgery and
Speaker 2: had taken a couple of days and you didn't get hooked,
Speaker 2: and you know, there's a tendency for us to want
Speaker 2: any escape. So what I think it could be a
Speaker 2: game changer for pain. I hope that it's not just
Speaker 2: like okay, now we look for the next sentinel or whatever.
Speaker 2: You know, people that want to find something to escape
Speaker 2: usually do you know case in point, have you seen
Speaker 2: the psychedelic conferences now they're having, you know, yeah, and
Speaker 2: like people say, it helps me forget I don't have PTSD,
Speaker 2: and all that, and that's great, but like you know,
Speaker 2: we tried that years back with LSD and it didn't
Speaker 2: go so well. So I worry that, you know, we
Speaker 2: we like to think that, wow, we'll change the opioid
Speaker 2: structure of a pain pill and people won't get addicted.
Speaker 2: But I actually think that most of us in life
Speaker 2: now are looking for some kind of an escape, at
Speaker 2: least a little while. And I found that out because
Speaker 2: I was looking at doing some research recently on the
Speaker 2: whole generation, like the millennials, they say are so addicted
Speaker 2: to things that they're actually using on the job, like
Speaker 2: you know, keeping alcohol in the desk and keeping drugs
Speaker 2: you can't tell for, you know, pain killer, poppers and
Speaker 2: things like that, and it's so prevalent. And it wasn't
Speaker 2: just like an addiction to those things like you know,
Speaker 2: a drug or alcohol. It was even like addictions to
Speaker 2: pornography and gambling and they can't cope during the day
Speaker 2: and they're using it work. And it was like this
Speaker 2: whole thing about how it's sort of maybe more acceptable
Speaker 2: to use a crutch. And then it's really also very
Speaker 2: sad that we just want.
Speaker 3: Some kind of an escape.
Speaker 2: And so I hope that this game changer for pain
Speaker 2: really works. And you know, if you have pain, it's
Speaker 2: a bad sign that your body's.
Speaker 3: Telling you something. But clinical trials of that drug showed.
Speaker 2: It worked as well as the opioid based product. So
Speaker 2: we're going to find out. We're going to find out
Speaker 2: if this really was all hype and we were making
Speaker 2: people addicted, or if people just wanted to escape and
Speaker 2: it was a very convenient one.
Speaker 1: That's what you've done reporting on this before. About gambling
Speaker 1: in the super Bowl, it's the number one gambling event
Speaker 1: of the year. A lot of the websites are encouraging
Speaker 1: people to put up a few bucks. You get two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars in this and that, and everyone almost gambles
Speaker 1: on the Super Bowl constantly. And the receptors in the brain.
Speaker 1: A lot of young males, say between fifteen and thirty
Speaker 1: years old, use porn instead of dating because you can't
Speaker 1: deal with a real woman. Therefore you have some fantasy
Speaker 1: land that's a problem. Are the same receptors in the
Speaker 1: brain that deal with porn and gambling and alcohol at
Speaker 1: work for those different elements, But for those who want
Speaker 1: to gamble in the Super Bowl, I can gamble and
Speaker 1: just walk away and don't do it ever again. Whatever.
Speaker 1: I don't have the problem. But many Americans, whether it's porn, drinking, drugs,
Speaker 1: or gambling, they start and they can't stop.
Speaker 2: You know. It's interesting. I am working on a story
Speaker 2: like this. We're airing it six on Local twelve. And
Speaker 2: they're the lender Center of Hope has a a guy
Speaker 2: who deals with nothing but addictions, Internet addiction, porn addiction,
Speaker 2: gambling addiction, you know, and he actually said that there
Speaker 2: is a higher suicide rate in gambling addiction than in
Speaker 2: some of the others. And they do think that, especially
Speaker 2: with pornography and gambling, there's a center in the brain
Speaker 2: that gets so hooked that without it you cannot achieve
Speaker 2: the same high. And he was actually telling me that
Speaker 2: there are guys now that if you know, if you
Speaker 2: get so addicted to porn, it plays with the dopamine
Speaker 2: in your brain, and your wife who isn't dressed up
Speaker 2: in some weird, wacky outfit that you know, or borders
Speaker 2: on violence or something like that will not get you
Speaker 2: turned on. And they actually said that there's a higher
Speaker 2: rate of the use of like ed drugs and erect
Speaker 2: all this function and these guys because unless they can
Speaker 2: get that high, they can't achieve whatever does they want
Speaker 2: to achieve. And he's he really thinks there's a similar
Speaker 2: correlation in gambling, like it's a different kind of high,
Speaker 2: but I don't know if we know why. And what
Speaker 2: was so interesting to me was that he said, you know,
Speaker 2: the problem. One of the reasons that the suicide rate
Speaker 2: is higher with some of these is that they involve
Speaker 2: your money, maybe even more than a drug or alcohol
Speaker 2: addiction would. And so that means you've spent your kids
Speaker 2: college education, you've mortgaged your house, and quite often you
Speaker 2: think if you take your own life that people will
Speaker 2: get insurance payments and it would cover you, which isn't
Speaker 2: often true. And so there's a lot.
Speaker 3: Of education that we need to do.
Speaker 2: But I don't even know if with gambling we know
Speaker 2: the extent of the addiction, because it's so much like porn,
Speaker 2: it's done in secret. You don't like I mean, you
Speaker 2: might drink with your friends, or smoke or do whatever
Speaker 2: drug with your friends because it's a friendly thing, but
Speaker 2: you don't go, hey, let's all pull out our phones
Speaker 2: and check out porn together.
Speaker 3: Not used.
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe you do, but I don't know anyone
Speaker 2: who does that. I've never met a person. It's usually
Speaker 2: done in secret. So same thing with gambling. You're not
Speaker 2: like you might put a dollar here, a dollar there
Speaker 2: with your friends, but you're not really telling them that
Speaker 2: this is a that dollar.
Speaker 3: You just put the whole mortgage payments.
Speaker 2: Down, you know, because it's yeah, it's kind of an
Speaker 2: embarrassing thing. So I think the real message is if
Speaker 2: you talk to the people with gambling hotlines, and they
Speaker 2: are very passionate by helping people. They want people to
Speaker 2: know there really is help for whatever the other addiction is,
Speaker 2: you know, porn gambling. You don't think there is because
Speaker 2: it's not openly shared. But just like you can interrupt
Speaker 2: an alcohol addiction or a drug addiction, you can really
Speaker 2: interrupt these and they do it usually with a variety
Speaker 2: of techniques, you know, sometimes avoid and sometimes medication, sometimes accountability.
Speaker 2: It's never easy, but you can't kind of start gambling
Speaker 2: your whole future either, you know.
Speaker 1: Gambling I've been involved with. I represented some gamblers and
Speaker 1: criminal charges and they have to lose. Winning does and
Speaker 1: satisfy them. They have to lose because they have such
Speaker 1: a poor self identity. They have to be at the
Speaker 1: bottom of the well. They can't succeed. They keep gambling
Speaker 1: until they lose. Many people who might hit the roulette
Speaker 1: wheel at hard Rock may walk out the door with
Speaker 1: three hundred dollars thank you. But a true gambling attic
Speaker 1: has got to stay there until they lose as much
Speaker 1: as they can lose, because it solidifies the view of
Speaker 1: themself as a piece of human excrement, and they want
Speaker 1: that confirmation that they're a loser. That's why they gamble,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, that's really sad.
Speaker 2: I would believe you on that. I also know that
Speaker 2: the way you hook people is through what they call
Speaker 2: intermittent reward, and gambling is very high on that, meaning,
Speaker 2: you know, you win a little bit and then you lose,
Speaker 2: and so it's very hard to break that because you
Speaker 2: keep getting the intermittent reward. And it's like being in
Speaker 2: a bad relationship. You know, the guy, like you know,
Speaker 2: breaks your ribs and then he apologize and.
Speaker 3: Gives you flowers or whatever else.
Speaker 2: It's like the intermitt rewards, but they're so nice and
Speaker 2: so normal in between, you know, and you feel like
Speaker 2: that niceness and the normalness come back when you.
Speaker 3: Win a little bit.
Speaker 2: And so not that I say in those kind of relationships,
Speaker 2: but if you talk to anyone, that's usually why you
Speaker 2: stay in something abusive, you know. So I do think
Speaker 2: you're right that probably sadly, you know, you have to
Speaker 2: hit rock bottom. Lots of things in life are like that.
Speaker 2: But the message is you really don't have to if
Speaker 2: you can get someone that can help you. Kind of
Speaker 2: in the meantime, you know, it's sad. It's sad that
Speaker 2: like we're taking a really fun game and this is
Speaker 2: what it's become. And they said sports betting really did
Speaker 2: push it over the top.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lis Bonus, you're the best health medical reporter. You're
Speaker 1: on top of all this stuff. Get ready for the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. We have about thirty seconds remaining. Who do
Speaker 1: you like Sunday? The Chiefs who I don't like at all?
Speaker 1: Tay Tay Taylor Swift drives me crazy now and there's
Speaker 1: a rumor of an affair with Joe Burrows. You may
Speaker 1: sweat size and come to the Bengals, in which case
Speaker 1: the Bengals are going to win or fly Eagles Fly?
Speaker 1: What does Lis Bonus say?
Speaker 2: You know, I don't really feel strongly about either, but
Speaker 2: I'm kind of always for who hasn't.
Speaker 3: Won the Super Bowl because I think it's fun to
Speaker 3: see that. I'm told the Eagles want it.
Speaker 1: Have they won it ever one time?
Speaker 2: Or have it one time? Okay, So it's just been
Speaker 2: a very long time, so I'm kind of rooting for
Speaker 2: the underdog.
Speaker 3: In this one.
Speaker 2: Plus I'm so tired of the Chiefs, like they could have,
Speaker 2: you know, made it to the Bengals stayed in the
Speaker 2: playoffs for a while, and they wouldn't even do that
Speaker 2: for us, So I'm kind of.
Speaker 1: Merrying them now. The Chiefs lost on purpose in Denver
Speaker 1: so the Bengals would not be And because the Bengals
Speaker 1: can beat them.
Speaker 2: Right, they didn't. Yeah, they knew the Bengals could beat
Speaker 2: them and they didn't want to play them. So just
Speaker 2: on principle, I'm kind of rooting the other way at
Speaker 2: this time, but not because I honestly have a preference,
Speaker 2: you know, just.
Speaker 1: Liz Bonus, you're the best Super Bowl gambling porn and
Speaker 1: so much more. Liz Bonus, thank you for coming on
Speaker 1: the Bill Cunningham shown lez You're a great American. Thank you.
Speaker 2: Hey back at you, And I want to know if
Speaker 2: you feel the p anxiety in the game.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll be texting you constantly.
Speaker 3: Those are the kind of facts that you've got to
Speaker 3: I got to pee.
Speaker 1: Is I gotta pee? I gotta be all right, Let's
Speaker 1: thank you very much. All right, let's continue with more
Speaker 1: Liz Bonus News next and more. It's your home of
Speaker 1: the Reds News Radio seven hundred WLW BHI Billy cunning
Speaker 1: in the Great American Little nasty weather maybe coming a
Speaker 1: couple hours north. Stay tuned to Brian Combs, Jack Crumley
Speaker 1: and Moore to see what's gonna happen. But there's going
Speaker 1: to be sixty degrees in a day or two, so
Speaker 1: we'll see how that develops. After one o'clock today we'll
Speaker 1: be Brian Hambrick of the Power of five about what
Speaker 1: happened yesterday on City Council. But this Joe Burrow thing
Speaker 1: continues to fascinate so many. I talked to law enforcement
Speaker 1: official this morning and he said, what occurs on these
Speaker 1: high end burglaries, and let's face it, Brian Combs talked
Speaker 1: about what's happening in other parts of the city of Cincinnati,
Speaker 1: is that these groups is one hundred or more groups
Speaker 1: of four to ten from Chile that are dominated by
Speaker 1: gang members, and because of the Biden administration APP they
Speaker 1: were able to come into the country as a tourist.
Speaker 1: It was burglary tourism, but they said instead of that,
Speaker 1: they said, well, I want to look at the Grand Canyon,
Speaker 1: I'm going to spend time on the beaches of California.
Speaker 1: I'm want to see a Broadway show. And so from
Speaker 1: the APP they were granted permission to come here for
Speaker 1: up to six months. And it was all a ruse.
Speaker 1: It was all a joke because what it was was
Speaker 1: large numbers of gang members actually doing what gang members do,
Speaker 1: which is steel rape, robin pillage. So I asked this
Speaker 1: law enforcement official with the federal government, how does it work,
Speaker 1: like with Joe Burrow, with Patrick Mahomes or Travis Kelcey,
Speaker 1: how does that work? He said, what occurs is that
Speaker 1: they determine a place likely to be burglarized because of
Speaker 1: the number of good items they will have in there.
Speaker 1: There are this research done by the home the Big
Speaker 1: Boys in San Diego, Chile about who has what. They
Speaker 1: might go online to see what accounts someone has. They
Speaker 1: might talk about purchases of items diamond gold, he watches
Speaker 1: of one type or another and say, you know what,
Speaker 1: that's a person that looks interesting. Then then we'll put
Speaker 1: like a deer camera and a bush or a tree
Speaker 1: out front to monitor activities for two or three days
Speaker 1: to make sure that no one's going to be in there.
Speaker 1: The cardinal rule of these gangs, thank God, is to
Speaker 1: cause no harm to a human being physically. That is,
Speaker 1: don't shoot anybody, don't fight anybody, don't beat anybody, don't
Speaker 1: do that that's stall too high profile. And just steal
Speaker 1: everything you can. And when Joe Burrow was playing in Dallas,
Speaker 1: it was obvious Joe Burrow was not there, and it
Speaker 1: was somewhat shall we say interesting. He had his friend
Speaker 1: who was an influencer. I'm sure she was influencing a
Speaker 1: lot of things at the age of twenty three, and
Speaker 1: also at a deputy sheriff parks in the driveway. So
Speaker 1: they made their way to the back and came in
Speaker 1: through a rear window, which is where where the master
Speaker 1: bedroom is. They always go to the master bedroom first
Speaker 1: because that's likely to where the safe's going to be.
Speaker 1: Then to go to a TV or a trophy room
Speaker 1: to take whatever they're going to take. So in Joe
Speaker 1: Brow's case, similar to other high and robberies, there's like
Speaker 1: a captain of the group. And what the captain does
Speaker 1: is make sure that the audems get back to where
Speaker 1: they belong. And it's not unusual when they have a
Speaker 1: particularly big hit for them to send back to Chile
Speaker 1: through fed x ups or the postal service a box
Speaker 1: of something full of all the goodies, then keep some
Speaker 1: for themselves. So in Clark County, what about a week ago,
Speaker 1: you know, there's four individuals who were arrested wanting to
Speaker 1: see snow heading north from Clark County, and they said,
Speaker 1: after a little bit of an investigation, the state police
Speaker 1: had been watching them for a while, they put a
Speaker 1: tag on the car and they found some LSU and
Speaker 1: some Bengal stuff not of great value, but they found
Speaker 1: a punch tool in the glove compartment behind the gloving department.
Speaker 1: And so what occurs then after you get a particularly
Speaker 1: good hit is they send the goodies back home, but
Speaker 1: they keep some for themselves. So what occurs then, if
Speaker 1: you're a Chilean criminal gang member, you have permission to
Speaker 1: be in the country. So if you stop you can
Speaker 1: show your papers, you can rent, you can lease a car.
Speaker 1: For example, is that there are individuals in that business
Speaker 1: in the Diamond District in New York City, and I've
Speaker 1: been there many times. It's fascinating who under the table
Speaker 1: they can fence the diamonds there get twenty five to
Speaker 1: thirty cents on the dollar, and then the fence inside
Speaker 1: the Diamond District puts the diamonds to watches whatever in
Speaker 1: circulation and doubles the money quickly. And so this has
Speaker 1: been going on for a while. The FBI at the
Speaker 1: rank and file level is very good, Yeah, Marshall, service
Speaker 1: very good. And so from this raid and I saw
Speaker 1: it last night out of a New York station, there
Speaker 1: were dozens and dozens of boxes being walked down the
Speaker 1: steps of a storefront in the Diamond District, high rent
Speaker 1: Diamond District, very close to Rockefeller Plaza. And it's anticipated
Speaker 1: that Joe Burrow will get back some of what was stolen,
Speaker 1: but not completely. And so what's going to happen now
Speaker 1: because the Trumpster Donald Trump said no more of that.
Speaker 1: You can't go online and say who you are without verification,
Speaker 1: simply fly into the country, stay here for a while Burglar, Ice, rape,
Speaker 1: rob Murder, Lake and Riley, etc. Then go back home.
Speaker 1: That's done. Why we put up with it as long
Speaker 1: as we did is beyond me. I don't understand how
Speaker 1: we put up with it for as long as we did.
Speaker 1: But come November fifth, we said, you know what, we
Speaker 1: can't take this anymore. So the Trumpster's now in charge.
Speaker 1: Kick an ass like mister ass. And one thing that's
Speaker 1: come to fruition is the spending by US AID, which
Speaker 1: is an aid agency, an independent agency. Now it's under
Speaker 1: the Secretary of State Mark Rubio, but their goal was
Speaker 1: to disperse money all over the world by needy causes.
Speaker 1: You've seen the one with a shrimp on a treadmill underwater.
Speaker 1: That was one of the projects they funded. Give you
Speaker 1: some idea in twenty twenty, not exactly the dark Ages
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four and a half years ago from now.
Speaker 1: There's been a forty five percent increase in federal government spending,
Speaker 1: forty five percent increase. It's exploding. Give you another idea
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, at the end of Joe Biden's at
Speaker 1: the end of Trump's presidency, and the start I'm sorry
Speaker 1: at twenty seventeen, the first year of Trump's presidency, USAID
Speaker 1: spent approximately twenty billion dollars in handing out goodies all
Speaker 1: over the world twenty billion, and by twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: that twenty billion had become forty two point four billion dollars,
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten percent increase giving out money all
Speaker 1: over the world. And they do not respond to Congress.
Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, of course, was in the Senate and he
Speaker 1: accused USA to rank in subordination through the use of
Speaker 1: taxpayer dollars. And to give you some idea where the
Speaker 1: money went. This is money that you sent to Washington.
Speaker 1: I know, really soon you and I are going to
Speaker 1: pay our taxes goes. I think taxes are rent to
Speaker 1: live in the greatest country in the world. How about
Speaker 1: this fifty million dollars to fund condoms in Gaza, And
Speaker 1: the argument was made, well it wasn't fifty million. Well,
Speaker 1: actually it was a h undred and two million. It
Speaker 1: was paid from us AID to the International Medical Corps
Speaker 1: to provide Gaza with medical services including abortion and birth
Speaker 1: control condoms IUDs and more so, we spent at least
Speaker 1: fifty million dollars to buy condoms for Palestinian men. I
Speaker 1: assume their men in gossip, which they used a little
Speaker 1: bit to inflate, and then to put improvised explosive devices
Speaker 1: in this inflated condom and send it into Israel to
Speaker 1: cause mayhem. How about one point five million to advance
Speaker 1: DEI in Serbia's workplace? One point five million Serbia to
Speaker 1: advance DEI in Serbia. How about seventy thousand dollars for
Speaker 1: the production of a DEI musical in Ireland? Dublin, Ireland
Speaker 1: received seventy thousand dollars for a DEI musical, whatever the
Speaker 1: heck that is. How About forty seven thousand for a
Speaker 1: transgender opera singer in Colombia, forty seven thousand, thirty two
Speaker 1: thousand for a transgender comic in Peru, thirty seven million
Speaker 1: dollars to the World Health Organization, including the Wuhan Lab
Speaker 1: who received six point six million dollars. So if you
Speaker 1: listen to doctor brad Winster but all with me. He's
Speaker 1: head of the committee in the House. Before he retired
Speaker 1: a month ago, he said, we funded the creation of
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. The American taxpayer did, and then add thirty
Speaker 1: seven million more to the Wuhan Lab, sixteen million in
Speaker 1: funding for institutional contractors and gender development offices all over
Speaker 1: the country. Six million and non emergency funding to provide
Speaker 1: evaluation services for planning and learning and for preventing pregnancies.
Speaker 1: Six hundred thousand dollars to fund technical assistance for family
Speaker 1: planning in Latin America. All told. The International Medical Corps
Speaker 1: wrote in a press release in twenty twenty three that
Speaker 1: it had received seventy eight million dollars from you USA
Speaker 1: to support its operations in Gaza since October the seventh,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, that's when AMAS invaded Israel. Seven eight
Speaker 1: million dollars of your money went to Gaza. Now, we're
Speaker 1: told by the media repeatedly, you know what we taxpayers don't.
Speaker 1: We don't mind you watch the media, listen to media.
Speaker 1: Everything Trump does is wrong, whether making Gaza look like
Speaker 1: the Riviera, whether it's what's going to happen in Panama.
Speaker 1: By the way, Panama recently canceled their contract with communists
Speaker 1: Red China and then Greenland. Those who live in Greenland,
Speaker 1: forty five thousand strong, don't consider themselves to be part
Speaker 1: of Denmark, so that's up for grabs and So a
Speaker 1: day or two ago, CNN put out a poll, and
Speaker 1: this was taken on January thirty first and February first,
Speaker 1: the first say, two weeks of the Trump presidency. By
Speaker 1: watching media coverage, you would think things Donald Trump is
Speaker 1: doing to eliminate this kind of crap is extremely unpopular
Speaker 1: with you. Here's Harry Entton with a morning anchor who's
Speaker 1: giving us information every morning about how bad things are.
Speaker 1: But Harry Entton, who has more lucid moments than many,
Speaker 1: actually did the following presentation a couple of days ago.
Speaker 1: Dave Keaton hit.
Speaker 6: It, look the American people really like what they're seeing,
Speaker 6: at least compared to where Donald Trump started eight years ago. Right,
Speaker 6: all right, This is Donald Trump's net approval rating. This
Speaker 6: is Reuter's zipsos. It's among adults. It was taken the
Speaker 6: first few days of this administration. Look here back in
Speaker 6: January twenty seventeen, Donald Trump became the first president history
Speaker 6: to start his presidency with a.
Speaker 1: Net negative approval rating.
Speaker 6: Look at where we are now in January twenty twenty five,
Speaker 6: considerably better at plus six points. That's up nine points.
Speaker 6: To borrow a Donald Trump praise, This is big Lee
Speaker 6: This is a sign that the American people, at least
Speaker 6: initially like what they're seeing. And so you see right here,
Speaker 6: more Americans approve of Donald Trump's job than disapprove. And
Speaker 6: that is very much, very much unlike what we saw.
Speaker 1: Eight years ago.
Speaker 7: So compare the rating now to the entire first term.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so it's not just that he's doing better than
Speaker 6: where he was doing eight years ago.
Speaker 1: It's that he's doing.
Speaker 6: Better than he ever did during his entire first administration.
Speaker 7: So I again, he never was He never was over
Speaker 7: plus three.
Speaker 6: He was never over plus three. The highest rating he
Speaker 6: ever his highest ever net approval rating was plus three
Speaker 6: in March.
Speaker 1: Of your choice of photo.
Speaker 6: Is he quite he likes what he's seeing. He's smirking
Speaker 6: at the American at.
Speaker 1: The American media doesn't like you.
Speaker 6: Maybe not, although he should like these numbers in the
Speaker 6: way I'm presenting them. You look at January twenty twenty five.
Speaker 6: Look at that again, you get plus six. So Donald
Speaker 6: Trump isn't just in a better position than he was
Speaker 6: eight years ago at this point, he's in a better
Speaker 6: position than he was at any point during his entire
Speaker 6: first term. Things have very much turned around. This is
Speaker 6: a very different Donald Trump. He's eating a very different
Speaker 6: administration in the way he's attacking things, and the American
Speaker 6: public is very much more in line with him than
Speaker 6: they were at any point during his entire first term.
Speaker 7: One I would say, correction, this is not a very
Speaker 7: different Donald Trump. This is a very different Donald Trump
Speaker 7: as being viewed by voters in this.
Speaker 1: In the way he's going about things.
Speaker 6: With Susan Wild's leading things, I think he is, you know,
Speaker 6: going at things in a much less disorganized fashion, much
Speaker 6: more organized.
Speaker 7: Take me back in history, Take.
Speaker 1: You back in history.
Speaker 6: So it was so interesting to me that Donald Trump's
Speaker 6: first net approval rating of his second term is higher
Speaker 6: than his entire first term, And I was interested, has
Speaker 6: that ever happened? Has the second term net approval rating
Speaker 6: in the first month? Have you ever had a higher
Speaker 6: rating than any net approval rating during the entire first term?
Speaker 6: Donald Trump is the only hard time believing this. This
Speaker 6: is one hundred percent you I went back.
Speaker 1: I love spreadsheets.
Speaker 6: Donald Trump's is the first guy ever who's netipproper rating
Speaker 6: in the first month of his second term is higher
Speaker 6: than any rating that he had is an entire first term.
Speaker 1: Cap Baldman this is true.
Speaker 6: I don't make stuff up the numbers of the numbers.
Speaker 7: I believe you in nothing except when you have it
Speaker 7: in the wall, and then I believe everything that's exactly right.
Speaker 1: Well, there you have it. CNN admits that what Donald
Speaker 1: Trump is doing is kind of like tr Roosevelt manifest destiny,
Speaker 1: expanding the power of the United States, getting rid of
Speaker 1: all the waste, fraud, and abuse. By the way, chew
Speaker 1: on this number for a while. Social Security administrators admit
Speaker 1: that every year, at least for twenty years, that Social
Speaker 1: Security sent bogus checks to dead people who others shouldn't
Speaker 1: have gotten it. Over one hundred billion dollars every year
Speaker 1: is sent to individuals who have either died or not
Speaker 1: entitled to it. One hundred billion. And the Department of Education,
Speaker 1: for example, has grown to something in the range of
Speaker 1: ninety one thousand federal employees with a budget of eighty
Speaker 1: five billion dollars a year. And the Trumpster says, enough
Speaker 1: is enough. We've got to return education to the states,
Speaker 1: which means the Department of Education in Kentucky, Ohio, in Indiana,
Speaker 1: it's going to have more money to spend locally, not
Speaker 1: on salaries and benefits and buildings in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: My gosh, we've only just begun. But do not buy
Speaker 1: in the notion that what Donald Trump is doing is
Speaker 1: particularly unpopular because it is not first time in US
Speaker 1: history a second term president is more popular than he
Speaker 1: wasn't any point in his first term, and that goes
Speaker 1: back a long way. Let's continue with more. Brian Hamrick
Speaker 1: is coming up from the Power of five Many issues
Speaker 1: yesterday on City Council Michelle lemon Kearney, I think indirectly
Speaker 1: or directly wants to encourage more illegal migrants to live
Speaker 1: in the city of Cincinnati because it is a sanctuary city.
Speaker 1: And will she be in the crosshairs of the US
Speaker 1: Attorney's office when a US attorney's appointed. Plus we'll talk
Speaker 1: some more about the Big mac Bridge, which seemingly, according
Speaker 1: to Brian Hambrick, might be some good news and more.
Speaker 1: But do not believe that somehow you and I paying
Speaker 1: in Ireland some fifty thousand dollars to advance transgender rights
Speaker 1: in Ireland is a good use of your money. They've
Speaker 1: more than doubled the spending on US eight in the
Speaker 1: past four years, more than double the spending and somehow
Speaker 1: it's got to stop. So let's continue with more. Bill Cunningham,
Speaker 1: the Great American. By the way, the Xavier fan who
Speaker 1: got sideways with the head coach of Georgetown is a
Speaker 1: prominent financial planner who maybe have some difficulty in the future.
Speaker 1: He may be banned from the Xavier Games. Bill Cunningham
Speaker 1: with you every day your home of the Reds. He's
Speaker 1: Radio seven hundreds. Wow, Billy Cunningham, the Great American. And
Speaker 1: all hell's breaking loose everywhere, more high speed chases on
Speaker 1: the rims. We have schools being shut down, mainly in
Speaker 1: northern Kentucky. We have immigrant rights groups showing up in
Speaker 1: the city Hall eight o one Plum Street demanding their rights.
Speaker 1: In fact, one of the lawyers said, quote, no legal
Speaker 1: way to come to the US. There's no legal way
Speaker 1: to come here, so you have to come illegally. And
Speaker 1: Michelle let me Kearney, the vice mayor kind of the
Speaker 1: vice president, is having a form for those individuals. And
Speaker 1: of course Brian Hamrick is on top of all this,
Speaker 1: and Brian, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. But
Speaker 1: first of all, this afternoon the issues, knowing that Kentucky
Speaker 1: and it may spread across the tri state give the
Speaker 1: American people a full report.
Speaker 4: Well thanks again, mister Cunningham. Well, I think one of
Speaker 4: the things we're seeing a lot. I was seeing a lot.
Speaker 1: Of flu out there.
Speaker 4: That's the flu has flown into the area again. And
Speaker 4: well they get schools shut down in Newport, Edward's schools
Speaker 4: up in uh up in Trenton are closed, just a
Speaker 4: number of people. I just talked to a doctor Robert
Speaker 4: Cincinnati Children's Hospital, and he tells me that they're seeing
Speaker 4: an uptick. In fact, they're saying, if and unless you've
Speaker 4: got an actual emergency, do not come to the emergency
Speaker 4: room because they're just jammed. They'll take you, but you're
Speaker 4: gonna wait for a long time. And uh, they're they're
Speaker 4: suggesting they got this, They've got an app and then
Speaker 4: they've got another link you can get and do a
Speaker 4: virtual visit, you know, if your kid's just sick and
Speaker 4: you want, you know, see if you can get a
Speaker 4: prescription or whatever, and they can visit that way. And
Speaker 4: they say that's a real shortcut. So that's what I thought.
Speaker 4: That was a real good tip if you wanted, you know,
Speaker 4: if you're thinking about going and you got a sick kids,
Speaker 4: and you're like, I don't want to go, and then
Speaker 4: you got to sit in the waiting room and then
Speaker 4: you don't know what else everybody's getting. That's a real
Speaker 4: good way of doing it. So that's what's happening out there.
Speaker 4: As far as that goes. They're seeing some other things
Speaker 4: out there. There's you know, nora virus or some covid
Speaker 4: still floating around with the big things. Just a regular influenza,
Speaker 4: but apparently it's a nasty one this year if you
Speaker 4: get it.
Speaker 1: Well, we had bad weather for so long everybody was inside.
Speaker 1: Been a little better recently my right now it's cold,
Speaker 1: a little bit of maybe freezing rain later on. But
Speaker 1: people get together and that's what happens human beings, and
Speaker 1: you're developing immune system and away you go and I
Speaker 1: think I had something, and what do you do? You
Speaker 1: just ride it out after three or four days, stay liquefied,
Speaker 1: and the way it goes, so about.
Speaker 4: All you can do. It's a virus. There's really nothing
Speaker 4: they can help you with. You're just kind of on
Speaker 4: your own with it.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: Two issues are percole One. You're on the big mac
Speaker 1: bridge big time, and I can recall about two or
Speaker 1: three months ago your governor of mine, maybe not your governor,
Speaker 1: my governor Mike the Wine because you live in Kentucky,
Speaker 1: announced that he believed, according to Brian Combs, you ran
Speaker 1: the piece a couple of days ago, that the bridge
Speaker 1: would be open more or less the middle of February.
Speaker 1: Next week will be the middle of February, and Brian Hamrick,
Speaker 1: how are we looking.
Speaker 4: Well, it's kind of like forecasting, you know, the weather
Speaker 4: two or three weeks from now. It's a little it's
Speaker 4: a little murky when you get that far out. But
Speaker 4: I talked to some of these folks yesterday I think
Speaker 4: it was Monday maybe that we talked about where they
Speaker 4: are and there I had a schedule, and the schedule
Speaker 4: that O DOT had given most recently was early March
Speaker 4: on that but being ahead of schedule and then listing
Speaker 4: out the things that they had to look at, like
Speaker 4: they still got to wait for the concrete secure and
Speaker 4: the last of it was poor I think over the weekend.
Speaker 4: So that's seven to ten days, so you're in the
Speaker 4: middle of next week, you know, for that year, they
Speaker 4: still have to do the inspection. That's another two days
Speaker 4: of inspection and then there's some ancillary things they've got
Speaker 4: to They've got to groove the pavement, they got to
Speaker 4: put striping on it, they gotta put up some signs
Speaker 4: and some fencing and it. You know. So but the
Speaker 4: time you calculate it out, you know, I don't I
Speaker 4: don't have you know, the inside meeting schedule here, But
Speaker 4: I'm thinking maybe two weeks on that. That's kind of
Speaker 4: a prediction. So I'm thinking maybe we will be somewhere
Speaker 4: around the middle of the middle of February, maybe pushing
Speaker 4: a little bit to the end of it, but I
Speaker 4: think they're going to get it done ahead of that
Speaker 4: early March day.
Speaker 1: It's amazing what you can do. When I watched the
Speaker 1: oven they put around the poor of that concrete and
Speaker 1: these these men are up there in the it's an
Speaker 1: amazing scene to watch. And you were right there and
Speaker 1: in the epicenter. Unbelievable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got to go up there, you know, and
Speaker 4: kind of look down through and see this thing. So
Speaker 4: that's basically what they've done. They've they've made like an
Speaker 4: easy baked project out of this because it got so
Speaker 4: cold and this concrete has to be between light and
Speaker 4: they got seventy and one hundred degrees to cure properly,
Speaker 4: and it wasn't going to be even close to that,
Speaker 4: you know, it was in that thirties and even with
Speaker 4: the nice day, we didn't hardly get up to seventy.
Speaker 4: So what they did is they put these massive heaters
Speaker 4: down there that you know, like frank out, you know,
Speaker 4: hundreds of thousands of BTUs and they got a bunch
Speaker 4: of them just baking that under there, keeping it in
Speaker 4: exactly the temperature they want. They've they got basically what
Speaker 4: amounts to a meat thermometer going into the submit, so
Speaker 4: they know what the temperature is and then they can
Speaker 4: control that exactly what they want and they cover it
Speaker 4: and so it's just kind of in there like you know,
Speaker 4: like you put biscuits in the oven and it's just
Speaker 4: baking right now. And the main part is done. That
Speaker 4: that huge part that you see that we're going to
Speaker 4: drive one that's done. There was another like a connecting
Speaker 4: layer and that was the last piece that they put down,
Speaker 4: so that has to cure. There are also some side
Speaker 4: places that got damage and they had to take those out. Yeah,
Speaker 4: so those are still curing. But all in all, that
Speaker 4: should be done because they have complete kind of control
Speaker 4: over how long that takes now because of that kind
Speaker 4: of oven situation they set up there.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. No one saw this one coming on Halloween night.
Speaker 1: This was like impossible and all of a sudden out
Speaker 1: of nowhere, kind of like the brent Spence Bridge. Yet
Speaker 1: about a week ago when that knuckle had stuck underneath
Speaker 1: the bridge. Now last night you had another knuckle head
Speaker 1: driving on rims on the Brent Spence Bridge. Unbelievable.
Speaker 4: What is that a magnet for criminals all of a
Speaker 4: sudden turned on the criminal magnet. I mean, how long
Speaker 4: has it been the bridge been there? I can't remember
Speaker 4: the last time we had a criminal on the bridge
Speaker 4: at the bridge at the same time. So I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: that was really weird. The guy goes over there like batman,
Speaker 4: trying to get over the side and then get you know,
Speaker 4: underneath of it, and you know, it's like, well, that
Speaker 4: was really weird. Then what we got a week or
Speaker 4: so later, we got more people going across trying to
Speaker 4: run from out in Deerboyne County, and they got them.
Speaker 4: They finally caught up with them. They're trying to drive
Speaker 4: with these stopsticks apparently wound up around the wheels. I mean,
Speaker 4: uh yeah, so I don't know what's going on over there.
Speaker 4: What how come they all think they got to go
Speaker 4: to the brit sprintce Bridge. But you know, it's the
Speaker 4: worst possible place to have a crime scene because everybody
Speaker 4: in town then has to be affected by it. You know,
Speaker 4: if you're driving north, you're driving south, they got jammed
Speaker 4: up either way. Then you're what are you going to
Speaker 4: go over to four seventy one. You can't even get
Speaker 4: south found over there. Then you go through town, then
Speaker 4: it jams up all the other bridges. So everybody in
Speaker 4: town gets affected by a couple of knuckleheads that you know,
Speaker 4: decide they're going to run for police and go right
Speaker 4: toward the Brince sprintce Bridge.
Speaker 1: You know, stupid criminals. But right the main reason I
Speaker 1: called you this afternoon, it's about your story on Channel
Speaker 1: five about Michelle lemon Kearney bringing in immigrant rights individuals.
Speaker 1: And I've said many times and I'll keep saying it,
Speaker 1: if I was in Mexico or if I was in Peru,
Speaker 1: I would do my damnedness to come into the United
Speaker 1: States of America. I would absolutely do my best however,
Speaker 1: the law must be followed. And so when I speak
Speaker 1: to democratic politicians, and I have many friends, I wouldn't
Speaker 1: call me yesterday kind of said, how, well, get off
Speaker 1: the record. I won't give the name, of course, how
Speaker 1: we're going to handle this because I don't want to
Speaker 1: get in the crosshairs of Donald Trump's Department of Justice
Speaker 1: and explain what happened yesterday. One of the lawyers for
Speaker 1: the immigrant rights group said, there's quote no legal way
Speaker 1: to come to the US, which I don't think is accurate.
Speaker 1: How to describe you were there what happened?
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I think so they had a lot of speakers.
Speaker 4: Everybody who spoke was, you know, kind of in favor
Speaker 4: and support the immigrant community this out there, and so
Speaker 4: you didn't have you know, you didn't have you know,
Speaker 4: you're talking about something that happened in downtown Cincinnati. You know,
Speaker 4: you don't have kind of Trump supporters or far kind
Speaker 4: of the more right wing part of the country that's
Speaker 4: down there speaking. So you had mostly the folks that
Speaker 4: are from the city that are talking, and and there's
Speaker 4: a lot of support for the measures that they're talking about.
Speaker 5: But what they're talking.
Speaker 4: About at this point, what jam Michelle Kearney, the Vice Mayor,
Speaker 4: has proposed it is an outreach that at this point
Speaker 4: is just in terms of information, just letting the folks
Speaker 4: that are immigrants know they're legal rights within you know
Speaker 4: what they you know, there's they have rights, they have
Speaker 4: their legal courses that they can take, and they're just
Speaker 4: trying to say, hey, look here's what you can do.
Speaker 4: So they wanted to have a system run through the
Speaker 4: city gives them that information, whether it's a legal advice
Speaker 4: or legal options, financial options that they might have that
Speaker 4: are already out there. That's where they were yesterday. That's
Speaker 4: what went through the Neighborhoods, the Healthy Neighborhoods Committee passed
Speaker 4: out of there. It's going to full council today. But
Speaker 4: I talked to some of the folks on council and
Speaker 4: they are saying, you know, we might be looking because
Speaker 4: I said, there were folks that spoke. You know, you
Speaker 4: sign up and you speak ahead of time. There were
Speaker 4: several folks that spoke and some of them mentioned, hey,
Speaker 4: there needs to be a financial component to this to
Speaker 4: help some of these families that are struggling here and
Speaker 4: are having to you know, go through and jump through
Speaker 4: different hoops because of what's happening at a federal level.
Speaker 4: That didn't get any traction yesterday, but it sounds like
Speaker 4: it might get some traction as they discussed this farther
Speaker 4: and there may be an effort to see if there
Speaker 4: are funding sources in the city that could help out
Speaker 4: some of these families. That's a whole different level to
Speaker 4: this that they You know, so far, it's just been
Speaker 4: outreach and giving information. But you know, if you start
Speaker 4: spending money, where's that money going to come from? You know,
Speaker 4: what's going to happen to the program that you're shifting
Speaker 4: that money from. You know, how can that be done?
Speaker 4: And I think those are some of the questions are
Speaker 4: going to answer or try and answer, and see what
Speaker 4: the feasibilities are and what's the appetite for that down
Speaker 4: at city Hall.
Speaker 1: And you know, popularity wise, I cannot conceive of anything
Speaker 1: more unpopular than assisting career criminal aliens that are here
Speaker 1: illegally committing crime. Cincinnati doesn't have nearly the problem that
Speaker 1: other major American cities have, but we have a small difficulty.
Speaker 1: I know in Boone County. I think that's where you
Speaker 1: hail from. Brian Brian Hamrick. The jail has got thirty
Speaker 1: to forty illegal immigrants, Butler County has a bunch to
Speaker 1: be shipped out. Now, the issue becomes when you're arresting
Speaker 1: a career criminal or rapist or murder a child trafficker,
Speaker 1: and there's two or three other people there, and the
Speaker 1: coup will say, ice will say do you have your
Speaker 1: can I see your ID? And from that begins the
Speaker 1: process of saying I'm here illegally. Now that's the problem.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a problem because you came here
Speaker 1: illegally and if you want to make refugee claims, do
Speaker 1: it from your home country, which is the way it
Speaker 1: ought to be done. But to have Democrats on council
Speaker 1: act as if Trump is not enforcing the law when
Speaker 1: he is first president in a long time. I think
Speaker 1: to spend city money, I think the city taxpayers would say,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, what the hell are you doing spending
Speaker 1: our money to provide thousands of dollars of aid to
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants that are here and should not be here.
Speaker 1: How popular would that be among the people.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is the question that they're going to have
Speaker 4: to find out. You know, it would certainly be you'd
Speaker 4: have a lot more opposition if this were to happen,
Speaker 4: you know, in Boom County or in Grand County, or
Speaker 4: I think any of the outlying counties, you know, Warren
Speaker 4: or even you know, Butler County, in Hamilton County or
Speaker 4: in the city of Cincinnati, there may be more, uh,
Speaker 4: there may be more support for something like that. But
Speaker 4: I don't think it could go in any of the
Speaker 4: outlying counties, but but certain maybe not even in parts
Speaker 4: of Hamilton County, but in uh, you know, in the city, Uh,
Speaker 4: there may be more. There may be more of uh
Speaker 4: more support for something like that.
Speaker 3: I will have to see.
Speaker 4: I think that's part of it that, you know, part
Speaker 4: of this kind of new world that that you know,
Speaker 4: everybody's living in is that they're trying to find out,
Speaker 4: you know, what is the stable ground here, what can
Speaker 4: we welcome I And you know, I've talked to some
Speaker 4: of the folks down there as well who are concerned,
Speaker 4: you know, about they don't want the city to become
Speaker 4: a lightning rod. It's already a sanctuary city that hasn't changed,
Speaker 4: and so there's certain things that you know, the Trump
Speaker 4: administration has said that is not going to happen if
Speaker 4: you are, you know, kind of the I think the
Speaker 4: way they look at it is you're aiding and abetting
Speaker 4: some of these these folks that aren't supposed to be here,
Speaker 4: and they're gonna, you know, tighten down the the uh,
Speaker 4: the purse strings. And that's the main thing.
Speaker 8: I think.
Speaker 5: It's money.
Speaker 4: They're concerned about federal funding, and so how do you know,
Speaker 4: I know, the mayor spoke out, you know, he said, look,
Speaker 4: I'm a son of immigrants, and I think I should
Speaker 4: support immigrants. But he was also saying, I'm going to
Speaker 4: follow the wall.
Speaker 5: We're not gonna do.
Speaker 3: That, he goes.
Speaker 4: So he's basically saying he's in a spot where he's
Speaker 4: got to protect the city in terms of getting the
Speaker 4: federal funds, even if he supports some of the things
Speaker 4: that would require not getting federal funds. So that's the
Speaker 4: kind of situation that he's in. And I think the
Speaker 4: city council is going to find themselves in that same
Speaker 4: position as well.
Speaker 3: And I think.
Speaker 1: Everybody's aware of that.
Speaker 4: It's just they don't, like I said, they don't want
Speaker 4: to create too much attention. You don't want to draw
Speaker 4: attention to yourself. But I think they still want to
Speaker 4: try and do some of the policies that they said
Speaker 4: they supported. So it's we're going to see where it
Speaker 4: come down here before long.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got to run, Brian Hamrick. But I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what. The Democratic politicians that have sanctuary cities and
Speaker 1: provide protection for illegal is going to have a major
Speaker 1: problem when we have a new US attorney to be
Speaker 1: appointed in the next month. But Brian Hammrick, we have
Speaker 1: to run once again. Thanks for coming on the Bill
Speaker 1: Cunningham Show, and let's do it again.

Speaker 1: of ignoring the fight. Was there a fight last night
Speaker 1: with Georgetown's Ed Cooley and a dedicated Xavier fan under
Speaker 1: the basket? What can you tell me about that?
Speaker 9: I guess there was some kind of incident, Willie, I guess,
Speaker 9: so I don't know too much about it.
Speaker 1: So I don't know.
Speaker 9: I mean, all I worry about is Xavier winning, and
Speaker 9: you know, whatever happens happens.
Speaker 1: Can you see when tonight and then marshed for glory
Speaker 1: and regain what happened to them? Two months ago? They
Speaker 1: were top fifteen in the country, yep, and now they're

Speaker 9: four and six, and they come in at thirteen and eight.
Speaker 9: They've dropped two in a row. U SE's dropped four.
Speaker 9: And then of course Xavier won last night over Georgetown.
Speaker 9: Miami wins on the road at Central Michigan. Old miss
Speaker 9: defeats Kentucky. That's two losses in a row for the Wildcats.
Speaker 1: Willie Kentucky's going the wrong direction segment.
Speaker 9: Dayton Bete Davidson. So you know, I mean, you got
Speaker 9: to have some winners and losers, and right now some
Speaker 9: are losing and some are winning.
Speaker 1: You know, you don't care about the NBA, but Luca
Speaker 1: is gonna maybe play on Saturday with B Jay. Last
Speaker 1: night's game with the Lakers was unbelievable. Beat up on
Speaker 1: the Clippers by like thirty points. You're not much of
Speaker 1: an NBA fan, No, I like to watch everything.
Speaker 9: Apparently the I guess the Dallas Mavericks are giving I
Speaker 9: guess their season ticket base has gone to you know where,
Speaker 9: and they are they're giving I guess rebates to people
Speaker 9: who are giving up on their tickets.
Speaker 1: Kind of text here from Mike McCall, the great Xavier player,
Speaker 1: who says UCLA won again last night. Mick Cronin. Maybe Martin,
Speaker 1: how about that?
Speaker 9: He was you know, he wasn't doing who good a
Speaker 9: few weeks ago, and now they're playing.
Speaker 1: Well, playing well, they'd beat usc Right, what's in better
Speaker 1: more shape? Gaza or parts of Los Angeles Gaza or
Speaker 1: lost Goza? Nothing less?
Speaker 9: I mean, what the Trumpster wants to make Gaza like
Speaker 9: the Middle East rivi Era?
Speaker 1: Right? Good luck?
Speaker 9: I mean, I'm thinking, what what what? That'll that'll go over?
Speaker 1: Big? What's a big strip of land right on the Mediterranean?
Speaker 1: It could be fabulous? Was it gonna be like Las
Speaker 1: Vegas or something?
Speaker 5: Man?
Speaker 1: It would take a couple of years just to get
Speaker 1: Bulldozer's in there and phill it. And where did two
Speaker 1: million people live in that rubble that I don't know? Somewhere?
Speaker 1: King of Dula coming next week to meet with the
Speaker 1: Trumpster to kind of work things out a little bit
Speaker 1: here it's not good segment. And right now the Trump Store,
Speaker 1: he wants to expand to Greenland, the Gaza's trip, the
Speaker 1: Panama Canal at all and maybe Mars, maybe Venus, I
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe Mars. I the guy's an expansion this
Speaker 1: mode right now, gotta expand. I say, somebody send somebody
Speaker 1: to Mercury. And what about Joe Burrow is some of
Speaker 1: his stuff was located with a diamond merchant in the
Speaker 1: Diamond District of New York.
Speaker 9: I guess they're dumping it off all over the place
Speaker 9: and they are.
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow may get some of his stuff back. Have
Speaker 1: you picked a winner for the Super Bowl? I went
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Fly. Eagles fly too. That's what I say too.
Speaker 1: I can't take it anymore, yep, I say that Eagles win,
Speaker 1: and so much for the Chiefs. Well, I hope Xavier
Speaker 1: doesn't come down too hard on this fan. There was
Speaker 1: no fisticuffs, nothing physical. This fan was yelling out a
Speaker 1: Georgetown player, Which doesn't the fan have the right to yell?
Speaker 1: I mean, assuming you're yelling and not getting in into
Speaker 1: the court or or not physically doing something, and like pushing,
Speaker 1: that's different. But this fan did not physically do a
Speaker 1: damn thing. And Ed Cooley, the losing coach of Georgetown,
Speaker 1: comes over to pick on the fan. And I hope
Speaker 1: Xavier doesn't overreact to this thing. The Big East may
Speaker 1: get involved.
Speaker 9: But I mean, I think I think, well, I don't
Speaker 9: think he was yelling at Ed Cooley. I think he
Speaker 9: was talking yelling at a player, and uh, you know,
Speaker 9: I don't know. I mean, I I don't know anything
Speaker 9: about it, Willie, So I don't know.
Speaker 1: Aren't you supposed to do that if you're a fan,
Speaker 1: to yell what? What the hell?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Whatever? Whatever he was yelling.
Speaker 9: Ed Cooley didn't like it, So you know what I mean,
Speaker 9: it's after the it's after the fact, after the battle.
Speaker 1: Everybody's hyped up.
Speaker 9: They either win or lose, and you know, you you
Speaker 9: you yell that stuff and people are.
Speaker 1: Going to react, you know, Sam. I stand with the
Speaker 1: Xavier faithful. I stand with the Xavier fan who has
Speaker 1: every right to be in a seat that they probably
Speaker 1: paid thousands of dollars for to yell, scream, holler, and shout,
Speaker 1: don't go on to court, which he didn't and don't
Speaker 1: do anything physical, which he didn't, so Ed Cooley. They
Speaker 1: had had basketball coach of Georgetown took umbrage at it,
Speaker 1: and I think that's ridiculous.
Speaker 9: Welly, hockey to downtown in the ECHL the beloved Cyclones
Speaker 9: their home against the Iowa Heartlanders.

Speaker 1: God blessed Daver University fans out to be able to
Speaker 1: yell their heart out doing nothing else wrong, no profanity,
Speaker 1: and Ed Cooley got all mad. Bill Cunningham with you
Speaker 1: every day. You're home of the Reds Deuce Radio seven
Speaker 1: hundred WL. Bill Cunningham, the Great America. Of course, I
Speaker 1: got a press release here about a new pickle ball
Speaker 1: opportunity segment and Brian Combs go nuts over pickleball. It's
Speaker 1: called the Pickle Lodge and Aces Pickleball are teaming up
Speaker 1: with others to acquire the Eastern Hills Indoor Tennis Club.
Speaker 1: And the co owner is Mitch done with us? Now
Speaker 1: Mitch done? Welcome, I think for the first time to
Speaker 1: the Bill Cunningham showing, first of all, tell the American
Speaker 1: people that probably the fastest growing sport in America is pickleball.
Speaker 1: Why is that?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 8: So It is absolutely the fastest growing sport because anyone
Speaker 8: can play it, so it has a much gentler learning
Speaker 8: curve than a sport like tennis. And so you see
Speaker 8: twelve year olds playing with their, you know, seventy five
Speaker 8: year old grandparents all the time, and that makes for
Speaker 8: a really social, cross generational experience that people really get
Speaker 8: addicted to.
Speaker 1: Can you tell us how it started the history of pickleball?
Speaker 1: It goes I now watch indoor pickleball, there's professional pickleball, pickleball, pickleball, pickleball.
Speaker 1: How did it begin? How did it get his name?
Speaker 1: That kind of stuff.
Speaker 5: Yeah, great question.
Speaker 8: So it started in nineteen sixty five on Bainbridge Island
Speaker 8: out in Washington. It was started by three dads who
Speaker 8: were dealing with some board kids when they were out
Speaker 8: for summer break. And they did what a lot of
Speaker 8: dads do, which is they created a game from scratch
Speaker 8: for these kids to play on Bainbridge. And they have
Speaker 8: to have a badminton court in their backyard which measures
Speaker 8: forty four feet long by twenty feet wide. And they
Speaker 8: created a new sport on that badminton court, and they
Speaker 8: named the sport pickleball after a concept called the pickle boat,
Speaker 8: which is kind of like the worst boat in a regatta.
Speaker 8: I imagine that boat that's just made up of you know,
Speaker 8: kind of the has beens, the extras, it's got broken
Speaker 8: parts hanging off of it, and that's called the pickle boat.
Speaker 8: So when they were looking for a name for this
Speaker 8: new sport they created, they called it tickleball.
Speaker 1: Did they trademarket trade name it? Are they making money
Speaker 1: off this or is it now ubiquitous?
Speaker 8: Well that's a great question. They did actually start a
Speaker 8: company called Pickleball, Inc. And they sold the very first
Speaker 8: pickleball set starting in the early seventies, and that company
Speaker 8: is still around, believe it or not. But as you
Speaker 8: can imagine, tickleball has changed quite a bit since and
Speaker 8: so there are a lot of companies that are into pickleball.
Speaker 1: So tell me about the Pickle Lodge and Ace's Pickleball
Speaker 1: Court Eastern Hills Indoor Tennis Club. Tell me what you've
Speaker 1: done there.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so we are bringing sixteen individually fenced, cushioned courts
Speaker 8: with a full bar championship court with seating on three sides,
Speaker 8: a private event space, a kitchen, and expanded parking to
Speaker 8: what is one of the best indoor facilities in the
Speaker 8: whole city. That the Eastern Hills Tennis Club has been
Speaker 8: owned by the Clark family since the seventies and they
Speaker 8: have created a real tradition down there in a culture
Speaker 8: that we plan to continue. So it's going to be
Speaker 8: a different sport, obviously, but we're going to, obviously with
Speaker 8: open arms, welcome both the current members of Eastern Hills
Speaker 8: and lots of new people who want to play pickleball
Speaker 8: in a dedicated pickleball facility.
Speaker 1: And is tennis going away there only pickleball or both?
Speaker 8: Yes, tennis is going away at Eastern Hills. The good
Speaker 8: news is, though, there are lots of other indoor tennis
Speaker 8: clubs around the city, like Camargo Racket Clubs for instance,
Speaker 8: which is just about ten minutes away from Eastern Hills,
Speaker 8: where people can still play really high level indoor tennis.
Speaker 1: All right, And so when will it be open, if
Speaker 1: at all? When's the month of the grand opening?
Speaker 8: Yeah, so we hope to be opened by late summer
Speaker 8: or early fall. We do have some fairly significant construction
Speaker 8: to do inside the building, but when we open, it
Speaker 8: is going to be one of the best pickleball experiences
Speaker 8: in the country. You know, we are players ourselves. We
Speaker 8: are we are among the pickleball addicts. So we're basically
Speaker 8: just creating the creating the place that we want to
Speaker 8: play ourselves.
Speaker 1: And in fact it's a great sport of community event.
Speaker 1: As you say, you can play with your grandkids, and
Speaker 1: men and women play together. Orthopedic surgeons tell me it's
Speaker 1: good for business, and that's a good thing. And is
Speaker 1: it going to be a private or public deal? How
Speaker 1: does someone get in? If at all?
Speaker 8: Anybody can play at the Pickle Lodge. We welcome, We
Speaker 8: welcome anybody from the public. We do have memberships that
Speaker 8: bring the costs down for people though so so for
Speaker 8: us fanatics who like to play a lot. We have
Speaker 8: memberships that make their visits less expensive, and we also
Speaker 8: give them longer access windows to reserve courts, which bill
Speaker 8: as you can imagine this time of year, our courts
Speaker 8: are in great demand. The weather in Cincinnati is it's
Speaker 8: not very kind to outdoor pickleball, So that's why we
Speaker 8: started indoor pickleball to begin with.
Speaker 1: Well, Mitch, don may you have great success and fuel
Speaker 1: this great economy. It's great to invest in a project
Speaker 1: that gives a lot of hope and gives a lot
Speaker 1: of physical benefits to those who play. But once again,
Speaker 1: look forward to the opening August or September. And Mitch Dunn,
Speaker 1: you're a great American and thanks for coming on the
Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham Show and informing the American people about the
Speaker 1: future of pickleball. Thank you very much, Bill, Bill, thanks
Speaker 1: for having me. God bless America. Let's continue with war
Speaker 1: news next to Hrome of the Reds News Radio seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW. Billy Cunningham, the Great America. Of course, free
Speaker 1: speech is the elixir. It is the fluids, the water
Speaker 1: that makes our democracy work. Practically every country in the
Speaker 1: world does not give to individual persons, citizens the opportunity
Speaker 1: to practice free speech, and America is alone in that
Speaker 1: regard because, according to our founding documents, God Almighty gave
Speaker 1: us the right of freedom of speech, and government's role
Speaker 1: is to unclutter the paths so we can exercise those rights.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's happening a lot, but Trump's getting
Speaker 1: so much done. A New Media Research Center study shows
Speaker 1: that Wikipedia is blacklisting of right leaning media for being
Speaker 1: a cited source, contrast to eighty four percent of leftism
Speaker 1: media deems is reliable. So all kinds of activities by
Speaker 1: so called conservative media is ignored by Wikipedia. And joining
Speaker 1: you and I now is Dan Schneider, Vice President the
Speaker 1: Media Research Center, And once again, Dan Schneider, Welcome to
Speaker 1: the Bill Cunningham Show. So which so called conservative right
Speaker 1: leaning media is barred from Wikipedia as a as a
Speaker 1: good source.
Speaker 5: Bill, the basic rule here is if you're a right
Speaker 5: of center media outlet, and now, of course that does
Speaker 5: not mean that you're that you're wrong. It just means
Speaker 5: that you know you've got to write a center point
Speaker 5: of view. But if you're a writer center media outlet
Speaker 5: with any significance at all, Wikipedia has you on their blacklist.
Speaker 5: And by the way, Bill, I'm not using that word
Speaker 5: on my own, that's the word Wikipedia uses. They literally
Speaker 5: have a blacklist where they say, if you know that
Speaker 5: you cannot be included in any stories about people that
Speaker 5: are on Wikipedia.
Speaker 1: Well let me give you from your column. The following
Speaker 1: media outlets are blackballed by Wikipedia. The list includes not exclusively,
Speaker 1: but includes Breitbart, The Daily Caller, Daily Mail, Newsmax, Christopher
Speaker 1: Ruddy's organization a n N, and the Media Research Center,
Speaker 1: which is your group leftist media like The Atlantic or
Speaker 1: Mother Jones, Pro Publica, the Guardian, NPR are given the
Speaker 1: green light. And so Wikipedia, as I understand it, is
Speaker 1: a private organization. But however, they fashion themselves as a
Speaker 1: source for information and they bar conservative media from being reliable.
Speaker 1: And what impact does that have on the American people
Speaker 1: getting needed information upon which they can cast an inform ballad.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, you've just nailed it. You know, we're not
Speaker 5: saying that Wikipedia can't exist. Yeah, they've got pre speech
Speaker 5: rights too. They want to be a left wing news outlet,
Speaker 5: left wing information site. That's fine of the legality of it,
Speaker 5: until they start engaging in election interference, you know. And
Speaker 5: and companies can spend money on elections, but they've got
Speaker 5: to report with the FBC. But what they do is,
Speaker 5: you know, if they want to have a Wikipedia page
Speaker 5: about you or Donald Trump or Dan Schneider or anybody else,
Speaker 5: the only information that goes on on those pages is
Speaker 5: what is cited in the media. You've got to be
Speaker 5: a media outlet. So if Donald Trump is only being
Speaker 5: described on Wikipedia pages by the Washington Post or the
Speaker 5: New York Times or np R, then of course it's
Speaker 5: only going to be nasty horrible stuff about Donald Trump,
Speaker 5: and that's what's going on and built to make things
Speaker 5: even worse. If you do a Google search for say,
Speaker 5: Donald Trump or anybody else or any other singer idea,
Speaker 5: one of the first results the Google will give you
Speaker 5: is a Wikipedia page. So the worst social media platform
Speaker 5: out there, Google is in cahous with Wikipedia to make
Speaker 5: sure that people are only giving a hard left wing narrative.
Speaker 1: Well for Warren is forearmed, and I know that's happening repeatedly.
Speaker 1: I look at my Wikipedia page every now and then.
Speaker 1: There's some of it's accurate, a lot of it is not,
Speaker 1: and I will not go through the process of engaging
Speaker 1: with them and talking about what's in accurate. I just
Speaker 1: don't want to do it. But when you go to Wikipedia,
Speaker 1: understand what you're getting is often left wing news, left
Speaker 1: wing propaganda, and conservative media is ignored. So when you
Speaker 1: go to Wikipedia, that's what you're getting.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And the way they've got it structured is that
Speaker 5: if you try, even if you try to amend your page,
Speaker 5: say and you decide to write a center media outlet
Speaker 5: that might actually have something nice to say about you,
Speaker 5: if that outlet is on their blacklist, you can't even
Speaker 5: offer the amendment. It is automatically rejected. It's spit out
Speaker 5: what like like fiddle. You know, they want to make
Speaker 5: sure that only the most pitful things are said about
Speaker 5: you on your own Wikipedia page.
Speaker 1: Let's move to issue. To Tim Graham this morning a
Speaker 1: post that PBS and NPR should be defunded. Five reasons
Speaker 1: to defund public broadcasting, and we as taxpayers, have paid
Speaker 1: for bad radio for a long time. It's very leftist.
Speaker 1: And he makes the point on your website that eleven
Speaker 1: percent describe themselves as conservative, twenty one percent of the
Speaker 1: listeners and viewers as middle of the road. Sixty seven
Speaker 1: percent of the listeners said their very or somewhat liberal,
Speaker 1: and they should pay for it. But Republicans are attacked
Speaker 1: by NPR and PBS regularly. We shouldn't have to pay
Speaker 1: for that, especially someone like Donald Trump. And I've heard
Speaker 1: this for the last twenty or thirty years whenever there's
Speaker 1: a Republican president, Dan Schneider that we're going to get
Speaker 1: rid of the public funding of PBS and NPR. First
Speaker 1: of all, tell the American people about the funding for
Speaker 1: these organizations and why they should not be publicly funded.
Speaker 5: All right, So there's this congressionally created corporation called the
Speaker 5: Corporation for Public Broadcasting. If you ever watch PBS or
Speaker 5: NPR goes into the MPR, you're going to hear some
Speaker 5: little things that says paid for by the corporations and
Speaker 5: public broadcasting. No, it's not, that's your tax dollars. The
Speaker 5: Corporation for Public Broadcasting exists because Congress and where you
Speaker 5: know pay uses your taxpayer dollars to subsidize this propaganda media.
Speaker 5: They don't even have the courtesy of saying paid for
Speaker 5: by your tax dollars. They why and stay paidful by
Speaker 5: the Corporation for Public Broadcasts. But we have got to
Speaker 5: end the existence of this thing, the Corporation for Public Broadcasts.
Speaker 5: If there are these radio stations and TV broadcasters out
Speaker 5: there are called NPR stations and PBS. You know, no,
Speaker 5: again we're not saying they've got those have to be eliminated.
Speaker 5: You know, any left he's got free speech rights too.
Speaker 5: We just shouldn't have to.
Speaker 3: Pay for it.
Speaker 5: But right now, over half a billion dollars of our
Speaker 5: tax dollars every year go to subsidize these things. And
Speaker 5: Bill what's also dolling is that NPR will falsely claim
Speaker 5: that no more than one percent of its operating expenditures
Speaker 5: come from taxpayer dollars, and that is just an absolute lie,
Speaker 5: because the way it's structured is that that corporation to
Speaker 5: public broadcasting, that vessel that's all about our tax dollars.
Speaker 5: It goes to a lot, you know, over one thousand
Speaker 5: public radio stations across the country that automatically then kick
Speaker 5: back those funds, do you know, the big NPR home office.
Speaker 5: So it's more like fifty percent of NPR's revenues come
Speaker 5: from our tax dollars, not one percent. They can't even
Speaker 5: tell the truth about how much money they take from us.
Speaker 1: Well, Dan Schneider, if it's only one percent, it should
Speaker 1: be easy to privately finance it. Accept the number. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's under one percent, we'll get rid of all the
Speaker 1: five hundred million dollars of public subsidies directly and indirectly.
Speaker 1: If it's under one percent, what's the big deal privately
Speaker 1: finance it the way you go? How about that argument?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 5: But exactly right. But of course as soon as we
Speaker 5: make that argument, then they try poverty and say, well,
Speaker 5: it's closer to fifty percent, you know, if they're new outlet,
Speaker 5: you think that they would actually present facts honestly, But
Speaker 5: of course they don't, you know, And this is ultimately
Speaker 5: what's so wrong about uncrmpds. They are just radical leftling
Speaker 5: propaganda mouthpieces, and our tax dollars should not have to
Speaker 5: have to subsidize their political agenda.
Speaker 1: You can only imagine the outcry if news Max and
Speaker 1: Breitbart and Daily Caller and and other so called conservative
Speaker 1: media we're being subsidized to the tune of five hundred
Speaker 1: million dollars a year. Number one and never would have
Speaker 1: existed for the last forty years. But number two, there'd
Speaker 1: be such an outcry, But it goes. I'm reading the
Speaker 1: column from Tim Graham. There's about one thousand and eighty
Speaker 1: five NPR stations in America. The state of New York
Speaker 1: has seventy three, California sixty to one, Alaska fifty three,
Speaker 1: and legislators in every state are likely to have public
Speaker 1: stations lobbing them for funding. So when this happens, maybe
Speaker 1: the whiz kids with Elon Musk hiding in an executive office
Speaker 1: building can do it quickly. But can you imagine what's
Speaker 1: going to happen? Can you imagine what's going to happen
Speaker 1: when all of a sudden, guess what, we have a
Speaker 1: situation now where NPR and PBS is defunded. What the
Speaker 1: hell's going to happen? Then?
Speaker 5: Well, the great Tim Graham has been exposing the radicalism
Speaker 5: of the NPRM can gests literally for over three decades,
Speaker 5: and every time he writes a story about this, we're
Speaker 5: accused of advocating for censorship because the left thinks that
Speaker 5: if we are not required to subsidize their speech, but
Speaker 5: that is censorship. The absurdity of the left they.
Speaker 11: Feel, how would they what would they think if if, uh,
Speaker 11: if we've told the liberals in America that their tax
Speaker 11: dollars have to subsidize say Fox News or or your
Speaker 11: radio station.
Speaker 5: I don't think they lefton like that very much. But
Speaker 5: they they insist that our tax dollars go to fund
Speaker 5: their efforts.
Speaker 1: That's a terrible problem. But uh, why do I have
Speaker 1: more hope today this is going to be defunded than
Speaker 1: I had before? Because I heard the same things out
Speaker 1: of the first Trump term, heard the same things under
Speaker 1: George Bush, who was a terrible president Bush forty three,
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden the vines, much like us
Speaker 1: AID is encircling the globe and they have all these
Speaker 1: special interest groups. They're raising money all the time to
Speaker 1: put some begs singing, uh singing, staying alive. And you
Speaker 1: got to contribute money. And if you contribute money, you
Speaker 1: get you get, you get an album or something. Are
Speaker 1: they going to go quietly into the night.
Speaker 5: Well, but it'd be easy to give an answer of
Speaker 5: the one wartine dose. But the reason those is having
Speaker 5: to kind of impack it is having today. And the
Speaker 5: reason the Media Research Center is having the kind of
Speaker 5: impact that we are today and trying to influence Congress
Speaker 5: sending exectivation is because the Biden administration was so gross
Speaker 5: in their overreach in censoring speech, and because then dr
Speaker 5: PBS and all these outlets were so disgusting in how
Speaker 5: biased that they were. That the average American has woken
Speaker 5: up and said enough enough of this, and as people
Speaker 5: learn more like how USAID has become so radicalized, where
Speaker 5: the American public is saying, let's fix it. It's about time.
Speaker 1: Some of the ridiculous spending we have in the media
Speaker 1: doesn't deal with the ridiculous spending. I watched CNN, so
Speaker 1: you don't have to. And most evenings they're talking about
Speaker 1: the USAID is keeping alive Africans, Asian South Americans and
Speaker 1: if we get rid of transgender show somewhere in Haiti,
Speaker 1: that that's going to destroy the health of the entire world.
Speaker 1: I don't think.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 1: There must be some good programs at USAID, but that
Speaker 1: the ones I've read about are ridiculous. It can't continue,
Speaker 1: and Media Research Center is there to keep an eye
Speaker 1: on it. You also have a column up a Media
Speaker 1: Research Center, which is very interesting that Colbert and Power
Speaker 1: avoid USAID's problem and attempt to save it from Trump.
Speaker 1: And so the media now is in a full panic mode.
Speaker 1: I watched Maxine Waters the other day, and I watch
Speaker 1: a couple of Senators AOC lose their minds over the
Speaker 1: fact that we're not going to have shrimp on treadmills
Speaker 1: running anymore underwater. We're not going to have that anymore.
Speaker 1: And basically Donald Trump wants Africans to die. He wants
Speaker 1: Asians to die. The worst kind of rhetoric. Ad on
Speaker 1: top of that Gaza when the President came out and said,
Speaker 1: you know what, that's great, great real estate. Make it
Speaker 1: the riv era of the Eastern Mediterranean, the media continues
Speaker 1: to go crazy. I'd look at the rubble there. I
Speaker 1: can't imagine two million people living there. Something's got to happen.
Speaker 1: Of course, the otherwise is to walk away and lead
Speaker 1: to your own devices, in which they'll be massive famine.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, you'd have to get to tie
Speaker 1: in of the imperants in other states. But is the
Speaker 1: media covering any of the moves in Greenland, Panama Canal
Speaker 1: or Gaza. Are they covering and objectively or she's simply
Speaker 1: making fun of Donald Trump?
Speaker 3: Bill.
Speaker 5: This is maybe the thing I hate most about legacy media.
Speaker 5: When a Republican, a conservative, Donald Trump, anybody on our
Speaker 5: side of the aisle does something, the legacy media's first
Speaker 5: story is it's outrageous that this one individual is going
Speaker 5: to be harmed by this action, as the post to
Speaker 5: the first story being, oh, this is why Donald Trump
Speaker 5: is taking the action. He is taking their day true story.
Speaker 5: They run on day one, Joe Biden does something, and
Speaker 5: for three days we hear about all the loverbole things.
Speaker 5: Joe Biden is Finally on day four, on page a
Speaker 5: twenty two, you get some little squib about how conservatives
Speaker 5: don't like it, but they completely ignore the day one
Speaker 5: story and immediately go into attack moments.
Speaker 1: Nothing's going to change with that, is it. I don't
Speaker 1: see the media saying, you know what, Trump was right.
Speaker 1: I'm willing to bet a hot fudg Sunday with somebody
Speaker 1: that NPR and PBS will be gone within two years?
Speaker 1: Am I right about that?
Speaker 5: From your lips to God's ears? And the reason the
Speaker 5: media today is doubling down on this isn't they can't reform,
Speaker 5: But it's because of that. When I say they can't,
Speaker 5: because their leadership, they're employees, they are all radical, and
Speaker 5: because they refuse to reform, they're being replaced. They're being
Speaker 5: replaced by podcasts, conservative media. Despite all the radical left
Speaker 5: efforts to shut us down, regular Americans are saying no more.
Speaker 1: Can't take it. And if regular Americans knew, they subsidized
Speaker 1: bad radio and bad television to the tune of five
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars a year, So for the last ten years,
Speaker 1: we're talking about five billion dollars, probably tens of billions
Speaker 1: over the past thirty or forty years. And if Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris had won the presidency, I guarantee you these things
Speaker 1: would be doubled and tripled. This censorship would continue, and
Speaker 1: PBS would be even better funded, and the newspapers would
Speaker 1: still be trying to exist and sites like yours who
Speaker 1: have more work to do. But the plan, the plan,
Speaker 1: hopefully is they have a cogent, functioning country that stays
Speaker 1: within its budgetary limits. And that's Donald Trump. But once again,
Speaker 1: Dan Schneider Media Research Center also a NewsBusters dot Org.
Speaker 1: It checking on every few hours great stuff up there
Speaker 1: and informs the American people what's happening when many times
Speaker 1: they don't have that information. And Dan Schneider, vice president
Speaker 1: of a Free Speech America with MRC, thanks for coming
Speaker 1: on the Bill Cunningham Show, and Dan, we'll do it again.
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Thanks Bill, God bless America. Let's
Speaker 1: continue with more. We have in Cincinnati some pretty good
Speaker 1: NPR stations with bad ratings, and every city in America
Speaker 1: where there are some fairly good NPR PBS stations that
Speaker 1: if you want to watch that stuff, do it, but
Speaker 1: don't let us pay for it. Five hundred million dollars
Speaker 1: a year is ridiculous. I'll just continue with more. Bill Cunningham,
Speaker 1: the great American with you every day, your home of
Speaker 1: the Reds News Radio seven hundred WLW. Hello, quiet, and
Speaker 1: I'm I'm broadcasting. You know, Rocky, I know you're a
Speaker 1: great fan, a great fan of Xavier basketball. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yes, did you see last night as
Speaker 1: Xavier fan got into the face of Ed Cooley, who
Speaker 1: acted like a clown. The guy never left his seat,
Speaker 1: yelling and screaming at Georgetown players. Ed Cooley came over
Speaker 1: and ostracized him. I don't like that at all.
Speaker 10: I think you're supposed to show up and be loud
Speaker 10: and scream and enjoy your team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't get on the court, he didn't use
Speaker 1: for vanity, and he said he was insulting one of
Speaker 1: the Georgetown players. So off he goes.
Speaker 10: By the way, Tony Pike was spite spotted at the
Speaker 10: Xavier game. He may have may have teams.
Speaker 1: How did he get in?
Speaker 10: He's Tony Pike.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, but I mean the guy he was.
Speaker 1: You're sitting with Scott Wolf.
Speaker 10: He's a great man.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 10: Maybe they're talking about n I L. Maybe who knows?
Speaker 10: Who knows?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I know Little Rock wants some ni
Speaker 1: L money to go to whatever it's school. He wants
Speaker 1: some money, all of it, all of it, all of it,
Speaker 1: all of it. No college sports is so screwed up
Speaker 1: now I can't stand it.
Speaker 10: Go it's you wonder how it's going to be around.
Speaker 10: I mean, you wonder how the you know, the MAC
Speaker 10: and the you know those kind of conferences, those G
Speaker 10: five teams, how are they going to be able to
Speaker 10: survive in this world? Because you're damned if you do, Dan,
Speaker 10: if you don't, you in order to survive, if you're
Speaker 10: a MAC team, you got to take a risk on
Speaker 10: a kid who's maybe he's not a four or five star.
Speaker 10: You're probably not gonna get that kid. You got to
Speaker 10: take a risk on a three star that but you
Speaker 10: do your homework and you find maybe the okay, move
Speaker 10: this guy if we can develop and he can turn
Speaker 10: into something while you do the developing, and then the
Speaker 10: guy leaves. I saw a stat uh in some of
Speaker 10: his graduation. But of the twenty nine football players who
Speaker 10: were who who got first team All MAC last year,
Speaker 10: only four are coming back next year.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 10: Some of them have graduated right because they were seniors
Speaker 10: or six of year seniors, but a lot of them
Speaker 10: are guys that have simply gone to bigger schools.
Speaker 1: Believable, unbelievable, well ninety back. I don't know what to say,
Speaker 1: but you see about five years ago when you when
Speaker 1: Dan Hord had the Bengals in the Super Bowl and
Speaker 1: the Bearcats in the.
Speaker 10: Final, we were living large, weren't we?
Speaker 1: Uh bigger than Montana now and not so much. Plus,
Speaker 1: we got a news report that Senator Mitch McConnell tumble
Speaker 1: down the marble stairs. I saw him the Senate and uh,
Speaker 1: he needs to step down and give it to Rob Sanders.
Speaker 1: How about so I'll.

Speaker 9: beloved cyclos are in town to battle the Iowa Heartlanders tonight.
Speaker 1: Rok. What do you think about city council like Michelle
Speaker 1: lemon Kearney putting together symposiums on what to advise illegal
Speaker 1: immigrants to do when law enforcement arises and how much
Speaker 1: money do we have to spend on them when we
Speaker 1: have needs in the own city ourselves. What about that one?
Speaker 10: Clean the streets? That's what I wonder. That's not your job,
Speaker 10: it's political grand standing. Have on instead, have a symposium
Speaker 10: on what we can do to better clean up the streets,
Speaker 10: to make sure our equipment is not outdated and broken.
Speaker 10: That's what the taxpayers want. That's your job as city council,
Speaker 10: not to talk about rights for illegal immigrants.
Speaker 1: It's not your place. Segment your reaction.
Speaker 9: I agree wholeheartedly, will you? I mean, city's got to
Speaker 9: clean off the wiel from the streets. They didn't touch
Speaker 9: Mount Adams.
Speaker 1: It can't. I mean, you know, I'll just do something.
Speaker 1: How about rock spending fifty million dollars to fund condoms
Speaker 1: so the gods and men can have sex with women.
Speaker 1: Fifty million. How about one point five million to have
Speaker 1: Dei in Serbia's workplaces for seventy thousand for the production
Speaker 1: of a Dei musical in Ireland Dublin. Seventy thousand dollars
Speaker 1: to a Peruvian transgender opera dancer seventy thousand. I like that?
Speaker 1: Is that the US eight thing? Yeah?
Speaker 10: USAID, you read of them, and more came out today.
Speaker 10: Joni Ernst, the Senator from what Iowa right, uncovered some more.
Speaker 10: She is going into it. So there was a two
Speaker 10: million was spent by USAID to promote tourism in Lebanon. Now,
Speaker 10: how many people want to go go vacation? Come on, rock,
Speaker 10: let's go to USAID spent more than two million from
Speaker 10: Moroccan pottery classes. USID fenerled nearly one million into battery
Speaker 10: research on coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Technology Virology.
Speaker 10: Excuse me, and then you see this one. This is
Speaker 10: a big breaking one. They've uncovered that eight million dollars
Speaker 10: of tax payer money went to Politico just last year. Now,
Speaker 10: what would I think we deserve eight million bucks if
Speaker 10: they're subsidizing radio companies and media companies. Where's my money,
Speaker 10: where's your money? Where's sex money?
Speaker 1: Yeah? What's the politic?
Speaker 5: Goal?
Speaker 1: Was the website where Washington Post New York Times reporter
Speaker 1: went to work when they lost their jobs, and so
Speaker 1: the government gave them eight million dollars to get out
Speaker 1: the word about Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton.
Speaker 10: Makes perfect sense. Let me ask you this. Here's an example.
Speaker 10: I was trying to think of a way to like,
Speaker 10: if say you had a store, you had a business,
Speaker 10: right and people were breaking into it. Okay, you hired
Speaker 10: a security company to come in and monitor the place
Speaker 10: and take video and all that sort of thing. Okay,
Speaker 10: and they find out who the criminals are.
Speaker 1: Who would you be mad at?
Speaker 10: Would you be mad at the security company for like,
Speaker 10: you know, doing their job of like finding where the
Speaker 10: problem was, or would you be mad at the criminals themselves?
Speaker 1: I'd be mad at the criminals. Yeah, we just had
Speaker 1: it report. Still right, it only makes sense. Fifty million
Speaker 1: dollars went to the New York Times. Now, how in
Speaker 1: the world are taxpayers paying the New York Times?
Speaker 10: And Chuck Schumer is out there losing his mind and
Speaker 10: Elizabeth Warren I got a soundbye, I want to play
Speaker 10: on my show. I mean absolutely losing their minds at
Speaker 10: people looking for government waste. They're they're blaming musk must
Speaker 10: doesn't have any power, he doesn't have any legislative power.
Speaker 10: He's simply been tasked by the president. Okay, and we
Speaker 10: knew this, by the way, Okay, it's not like this
Speaker 10: is something that came out of clear blue to find
Speaker 10: fraudulent spending, find waste. He can't do anything about it.
Speaker 10: He's tasked to find it. So they're they're crying about
Speaker 10: oh and unelected this and that it's simply a tool
Speaker 10: that the president is using. Why can't that this makes
Speaker 10: sense to me?
Speaker 1: Why does it make sense to these guys? And the
Speaker 1: other issue, the US Senate repeatedly asked USA and for
Speaker 1: its specific information about where the money's being spent. They
Speaker 1: were an independent agency now under the Secretary of State,
Speaker 1: but they were funded completely by we taxpayers, and they
Speaker 1: wouldn't respond to su poenis. They said, no, we're not
Speaker 1: going to tell you how we're spending your money. And
Speaker 1: now when the trump Ster locks them out of the building,
Speaker 1: they have a conniption fit. Where's the money for the bridge?
Speaker 10: They better strap it in. It's gonna be a long
Speaker 10: four years, maybe eight twelve years, but it's gonna they
Speaker 10: better strap it in because and also, I guess we're
Speaker 10: turning the Gaza Strip into mar A Lago, Mara Gaza.
Speaker 10: How about that one that came out yesterday. It's hard
Speaker 10: to keep up. It's just like boom boom boom boom boom.
Speaker 1: Trump Hotel Magaza Gazza, Trump Hotel Magaza CA. I don't
Speaker 1: know what to tell you. I'm betiful, beautiful. Well, we're
Speaker 1: going to expand to Greenland, Panama Canal, now Gaza and
Speaker 1: more to come. How about Madagascar in.
Speaker 10: Your lifetime, my lifetime, there's like luxury hotels and golf
Speaker 10: courses in the Gaza Strip. I mean, it probably ain't
Speaker 10: gonna have it, but it'd be it'd be hilarious if
Speaker 10: it did, and I wouldn't totally bet against it.
Speaker 1: You know, how many years have we spent talking about
Speaker 1: America's decline. Now we're talking about American expansion because the
Speaker 1: one man, he's only been there like two weeks and
Speaker 1: two days, and now we're expanding all over the world.
Speaker 1: And I guar I wouldn't bet against Trump and Gaza. No,
Speaker 1: I see it. But Greenland wants Greenland wants to join us.
Speaker 1: They're heading up with the Dutch. They don't care about
Speaker 1: Denmark and Greenland's forty five thousand people. Canada expand to Canada.
Speaker 1: There's the same number of people live in the whole
Speaker 1: nation of Canada live in California. So we're going to
Speaker 1: take over Canada, Greenland, the Gaza Strip to Panama Canal.
Speaker 1: We're expanding. We're not contracting manifest destiny.
Speaker 10: That used to be something that was looked upon with
Speaker 10: America manifest destiny right kicking ass like, mister ass.
Speaker 1: Now we're doing it. Now, get rid of the Department
Speaker 1: of Education, sending the money to the States, and locally
Speaker 1: determined how the money shows. Did you say? He said?
Speaker 10: He told, he said, I've advised onto him man to
Speaker 10: go in there to shut down the Department of Education.
Speaker 10: But then I want you to put yourself out of business.
Speaker 10: I want you to make yourself irrelevant. In other words,
Speaker 10: do the job and then get out of there and
Speaker 10: quit collect and checks like most of the bureaucrats down there.
Speaker 1: I can't take you any more. And she's still getting
Speaker 1: checks in the w w A and Vince mcmichley likely, Yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of money, a lot of money. Right segment.
Speaker 1: What else in sports?
Speaker 9: That's about it, Willie, super Bowl coming up Sunday.
Speaker 1: Let's see what else that nobody cares? Nobody, I don't
Speaker 1: think so, rock what's on the big show this afternoon
Speaker 1: with you? If anyone?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 10: Well, first of all, so Eddie is still on vacation.
Speaker 10: He is on a cruise somewhere. Jason Williams, the Great
Speaker 10: Jason Williams was with me yesterday and he'll be back Thursday.
Speaker 10: But today Catherine Nero will be like her, Rocky and Catherine.
Speaker 10: Right out of the gate, we got Scott Wartman going
Speaker 10: to join us to talk about your boy, Mike dwines
Speaker 10: proposal to increase the the.
Speaker 1: Gambling that the sports books.
Speaker 10: What the percentages they take up to I believe forty
Speaker 10: percent to pay for your stadium?
Speaker 1: How about it? And also the marijuana situation, which is
Speaker 1: going to all these guys and men and women invest
Speaker 1: a big time in marijuana. They want a fifty percent
Speaker 1: increase in the state tax. Instead of going to local communities,
Speaker 1: it's going to go to the general fund that's got
Speaker 1: people panties in a wad.
Speaker 10: So between the doesn't at some point make it so
Speaker 10: expensive that people just go back to buying marijuana off
Speaker 10: the street the way they have for years and years
Speaker 10: and years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the last year three hundred million dollars has
Speaker 1: been taken out of the pockets of drug dealers. Three
Speaker 1: hundred million. But the state wants to be greedy and
Speaker 1: take more money, which raises the price, which means users
Speaker 1: of marijuana like a WEBN, those characters are going to
Speaker 1: be welcome to their friendly drug deal I'm just saying
Speaker 1: they're going to go back to their marijuana dealer and
Speaker 1: not use the state. So don't kill the goose that
Speaker 1: lays the eggs. Don't don't be an.
Speaker 10: You can share a sheep many times, but you can
Speaker 10: skin it only once and looks like they're trying to
Speaker 10: skin people.
Speaker 1: They're trying to skin it. And just let it happen
Speaker 1: for ten years and see what happens. The state's making
Speaker 1: millions and millions of dollars otherwise wouldn't have thousands of
Speaker 1: people are working. Three hundred million dollars taken out of
Speaker 1: the drug market illegally and put into the legal drug market.
Speaker 1: Now the state wants to be uh more. We didn't
Speaker 1: want more. A fifty percent increase of this, no more
Speaker 1: local government funds. It is ridiculous.
Speaker 10: And then also at four o'clock we have Chris Katz
Speaker 10: from KMBC Kansas City going to talk about the Chiefs
Speaker 10: and the Super Bowl and the Eagles and SEG's girl Tate.
Speaker 1: Well, she's coming to Cincinnati. She's going to pick up
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow's diamonds from the Diamond District in New York
Speaker 1: and bring them here.
Speaker 10: So what I mean we need something like that to happen.
Speaker 1: We need that. Yeah, she needs to come here for
Speaker 1: Freday about that other UC grad All right, segment, get
Speaker 1: me out of the Students Report, please, Pully.
Speaker 9: We say, on this happy National weather Person Day. Oh
Speaker 9: and also National Girls and Women in Sports Day?
Speaker 1: How about that?
Speaker 10: But that has extra meeting today, doesn't it.
Speaker 1: We leave you with them. We leave you with the
Speaker 1: immortal words of the stood Report. I was a Deer
Speaker 1: Park High School, which honestly is not the strongest academic
Speaker 1: institution in the Tri State.
Speaker 9: What a minute, the investigation there some old cuts.
Speaker 1: No, Rocky, you told me the little rock may want
Speaker 1: to go to Deer Parks good academic and how much
Speaker 1: we got to talk to a few people, and Jim
Speaker 1: Stall is now in charge of Deer Park and we
