Speaker 1: Today at eleven, it begins. One of the incredible things
Speaker 1: about Cincinnati and something I didn't really realize, the magnanimity,
Speaker 1: I mean, the hugeness of it. It's an incredible food
Speaker 1: festival that is held every year in downtown where they
Speaker 1: basically just block several blocks off and food vendors from
Speaker 1: all over the city set up and display their wares
Speaker 1: and give the citizenry and the attendees a chance to
Speaker 1: taste Cincinnati. Like the Flying Pig Marathon, which is considered
Speaker 1: the premiere marathon in the country, one of the top three.
Speaker 1: For sure, taste of Cincinnati is unique amongst all other
Speaker 1: things that this and this city has so many wonderful
Speaker 1: things to offer Opening Day with the Reds and you
Speaker 1: can go down the list of the really unique things
Speaker 1: about this city. Do we need any more? Do we
Speaker 1: really need the Olympics or the Sundance Film Festival. Some
Speaker 1: people say, yes, make us the center of the universe.
Speaker 1: But I think we've got enough to put us on
Speaker 1: the map in many ways. And the next three days
Speaker 1: this Memorial Day weekend, will be a chance, if it's
Speaker 1: your thing, to get out among the throng thousands of
Speaker 1: other people elbows and walk the streets and taste the
Speaker 1: different culinary delights that are available here in the heart
Speaker 1: of the Midwest. But now, and I understand why people
Speaker 1: have pride who are from here. But I never imagine
Speaker 1: when I moved here in nineteen ninety four, how absolutely
Speaker 1: marvelous this place that you may call home is. So
Speaker 1: here's to Cincinnati a toast and a taste this weekend.
Speaker 1: And it all starts at around eleven o'clock this morning.
Speaker 1: What is this Tim shimming? Is? Is this Tim shimming
Speaker 1: from Oak Harboro, Ohio?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: How are you doing? I'm doing fine? How are you friend?
Speaker 1: I haven't heard from you for a long time.
Speaker 3: Just wonderful. I've been listening to you every Saturday.
Speaker 1: When has the Sunflower Festival in Lindsey happened? Already?
Speaker 3: To No, it's in July. Okay, third weekend in July.
Speaker 3: IM not sure the exact date.
Speaker 1: Well, we'll look forward. You know, we've got taste of Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: As I was just mentioning, going on this weekend, here
Speaker 1: is the Sunflower Festival in Lindsay, Ohio as big an
Speaker 1: enormous as taste of Cincinnati.
Speaker 3: It might be close.
Speaker 1: How is uh?
Speaker 3: What were we going to say I had a historic
Speaker 3: day yesterday?
Speaker 1: What happened?
Speaker 3: I made it sixty years?
Speaker 1: Well, happy birthday?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't believe it.
Speaker 1: That's wonderful. You know the only time you'll catch up
Speaker 1: to me is when I'm dead, probably if you're blessed
Speaker 1: enough to continue living.
Speaker 3: If I make might make it. Who knows?
Speaker 1: All right? How is the Lord? How is You're right?
Speaker 1: The Lord only knows? How's the donkey? Whisper? Have you? Uh?
Speaker 1: Have you been?
Speaker 3: She's doing good?
Speaker 1: Good?
Speaker 3: Yep, we got some packers down.
Speaker 1: Well, congratulations. What's the gestation period in an l paka?
Speaker 3: I think I'm not sure. I think it's nine months.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, you keep chugging up there, and it's good
Speaker 1: to hear from you man. Yep, thank you, all right,
Speaker 1: thanks for tuning in. You two. Tim Shimming from Oak Harboro,
Speaker 1: Ohio and Dick from Dayton is hanging. We'll get to
Speaker 1: him neck Dick, Good morning.
Speaker 3: Dick, Good morning, Jeff. Happy Memorial Day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's it's kind of a somber holiday because
Speaker 1: we remember those who gave their lives for our country.
Speaker 1: That's what Memorial Day is all. But yes, you can
Speaker 1: enjoy each other and enjoy picnics and parades and barbecues
Speaker 1: and all of that. So certainly some happy times are ahead.
Speaker 1: But we think back at this the sacrifice of those
Speaker 1: who came before us.
Speaker 4: Right right right exactly.
Speaker 1: Those who died on the battlefield preserving America's freedom and liberty.
Speaker 1: So what are you doing for this weekend, Dick? Anything fun?
Speaker 5: I might go. I haven't been up to Goodwill for
Speaker 5: a while. I need to get a couple of pants
Speaker 5: and shirts from the band, and I haven't been up
Speaker 5: there for a while, and they have special sales. Uh,
Speaker 5: there's a little good Will over by me, and I'd
Speaker 5: buy some some things up there.
Speaker 4: It's it's pretty darn right.
Speaker 1: It's commercialism. That's the way to celebrate memorial is commercialism.
Speaker 1: Go out and buy bye bye, save, save, save, right
Speaker 1: or maybe not.
Speaker 5: I wanted wanted to say something real quick. I suit
Speaker 5: my dad's family that served their country, my dad and
Speaker 5: my uncle Tony and Uncle Chuck, and thanked them for
Speaker 5: a uh and Benny Benny from Middally for a music
Speaker 5: career that I developed over there. I think it's a talent.
Speaker 5: I think that people like it and I'm proud to
Speaker 5: be a part of it.
Speaker 3: You know what it Dick.
Speaker 1: I have observed that talent in action with you playing,
Speaker 1: whether it's a ukulele or a mandolin or even a triangle.
Speaker 1: And uh, you come from a long line of troubadours
Speaker 1: and musicians, and please keep it going, keep the legacy going,
Speaker 1: and say good night, Dick.
Speaker 2: Good night, Gary Jeff all right, thanks ya.
Speaker 1: Bye bye bye. Five point fifty nine seven hundred WLW
Speaker 1: into the first official hour of the Saturday Morning edition
Speaker 1: for Saturday May twenty twenty five. Gary Jeff Walker with
Speaker 1: you no place I'd rather be? No, no, no, no not.
Speaker 1: I got my DCAF coffee, he said, Why, if you're
Speaker 1: going to drink coffee, would you drink DCAF? What's the point?
Speaker 1: Point is I like the taste of black coffee, and
Speaker 1: I'm really not supposed to have the caffeine, just like
Speaker 1: I'm not supposed to be eating a chocolate chip cookie.
Speaker 1: No word as to whether I'm actually eating a chocolate
Speaker 1: chip cookie right now, because it's none of your business.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I guess none of that was none of
Speaker 1: your business. Well, that was a colossal waste of time.
Speaker 1: And speaking of which, Good morning, Dave, Good morning, Garritt, Jeah.
Speaker 6: How are we doing on this glorious Memorial Day weekend?
Speaker 1: We're doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances.
Speaker 7: Yeah, we're doing the best of what we got, right.
Speaker 1: That's it. As Liam always says, when I ask him
Speaker 1: how he is, he says, best day of my life
Speaker 1: so far. And he's not lying when he says that,
Speaker 1: you know, Dave, Dave, Dave, I was thinking about it.
Speaker 1: Everywhere is within walking distance if you've got the time.
Speaker 1: I agree, And I think it's wrong that only one
Speaker 1: company makes monopoly. Well, yeah, for sure. I went to
Speaker 1: I went to a general store once and and they
Speaker 1: wouldn't let me buy anything specific. What do you got?
Speaker 1: What do you got, Dave?
Speaker 8: Well, there is a beautiful sunrise coming up over there.
Speaker 6: And he but Gary, Jeff, why do you Why do
Speaker 6: you suppose the beach was wet?
Speaker 1: I have no idea, Dave. Why was the beach wet?
Speaker 3: Does the scene we.
Speaker 1: Gary Jeff?
Speaker 7: What did what did the oceans say to the beach?
Speaker 7: What did the oceans say to the beach?
Speaker 1: Are you sure you're even speaking language that we can understand?
Speaker 1: What did the ocean say to the beach.
Speaker 6: Yes, well I didn't say anything, it just way.
Speaker 8: Do you know what happened yesterday?
Speaker 9: What happened yes yesterday?
Speaker 10: A clown opened the door for me.
Speaker 1: Really it was a nice gesture.
Speaker 11: Gay from Harrison are not necessarily considered funny by the staff, management,
Speaker 11: or advertisers of seven hundred WLW or his parent company, iHeartMedia.
Speaker 11: If these attempts at humor have caused you to roll
Speaker 11: your eyes, made your stomach churn, or you have considered
Speaker 11: the entire exercise to be a colossal waste of time,
Speaker 11: we deeply apologize. Now back to our irregular programming, as
Speaker 11: Lynette again is with us. Good morning, Lynette.
Speaker 1: Thank you raised me outnet Where I'm right here? Lynette?
Speaker 1: Where are you?
Speaker 2: I know, baby, I was upside down?
Speaker 1: What were you doing upside down?
Speaker 2: Well, she's new and they she did think anyway?
Speaker 12: Is this some kind of blood?
Speaker 13: Uhy Kan cleans each spot wider than snow, wider than snow.
Speaker 13: I feel free, free, free, I feel clean, clean clean,
Speaker 13: I feel clean clean clean. I feel clean. Amen.
Speaker 1: Amen, So I really you threw me. You threw me
Speaker 1: for a loop. You said you were upside down. I
Speaker 1: didn't know they had those inversion tables at the home.
Speaker 2: Well, she was changing me, so I said, raising up.
Speaker 2: I wasn't up singing position.
Speaker 14: Love.
Speaker 2: Remember that day I was laying down, you said, letting out.
Speaker 13: I know you're laying down. You called me laying down.
Speaker 1: Well you sounded wonderful to me.
Speaker 2: Thank God. Amen, Indeed, everything's good.
Speaker 1: We have uh, we have a new arrival at my house.
Speaker 1: Good morning, Chris to two point zero. We're welcome. We
Speaker 1: got a brand new feline friend. People know that Brooksy
Speaker 1: the cat dog passed back around Valentine's Day. In fact,
Speaker 1: it was on Valentine's Day, uh huh and suddenly. And
Speaker 1: we have been petly since then. But on Thursday, Krista
Speaker 1: went to the Kenton County Animal Shelter. Yeah, and while
Speaker 1: I was working and picked up Frankie. Frankie. Frankie is
Speaker 1: a beautiful gray kitten's he's got huge ears all the
Speaker 1: better to hear you with, my dear, and he's very
Speaker 1: muscular for a little he's tiny. He's only twelve weeks old.
Speaker 1: But I'm going to try and train him on the
Speaker 1: harness as soon as he's big enough to fit into
Speaker 1: the harness so we can make him a cat dog too.
Speaker 1: We'll see how that goes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you say brooks one, brooks too.
Speaker 1: You know what we've been calling him Brooksy by mistake.
Speaker 2: Well you can climb Brooksley the.
Speaker 1: Last two days that he's been with us, and uh,
Speaker 1: but no, he's Frankie. Yeah, Kristin nat him this time.
Speaker 1: It was her turn. And so we're very pleased with
Speaker 1: little Frankie.
Speaker 2: I hope you.
Speaker 1: Brooksy was all kinds of colors. He was like you.
Speaker 1: He was he was like you. He was transracial callie color.
Speaker 1: You know. I think his mom may have been a calico.
Speaker 1: But he had all kinds of just very very bizarre
Speaker 1: and specific individual markings that made him truly unique. And
Speaker 1: I'm sure Frankie does something that makes him truly unique.
Speaker 1: We will find out in the coming days, dear, and
Speaker 1: I will report to you when I find I know.
Speaker 2: Something, I'll see and I got Kat was mister Godi.
Speaker 2: He was three colors gold My mom named him Goldy.
Speaker 2: I named him mister Goady. My' see. And I can't
Speaker 2: he stick his tail up in there and look back
Speaker 2: as say follow me, Madam Eddie. We'd walk up and
Speaker 2: down the sidewalk every morning.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of a seeing I cat.
Speaker 2: This is a first, ye, mister Godie, we'll see an
Speaker 2: I cat.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, baby, I got I got a roll. But
Speaker 1: thanks for checking in.
Speaker 2: Thank you loud, bye bye, all.
Speaker 1: Right, we love you, old radio Rick. Good morning. Follow that.
Speaker 9: Memorial Day weekend in Indianapolis. Oh that's really speeding ticket revenue?
Speaker 9: Is it its annual peak? The drunk tanks are full,
Speaker 9: and young men with muscle cars and more horsepower than since.
Speaker 9: Find out what happens to your auto insurance premiums when
Speaker 9: you think drag racing.
Speaker 1: Would be a good idea.
Speaker 9: Oh you are coming in three by two?
Speaker 1: Oh no?
Speaker 9: Oh oh yeah. Well, because it's a nineteen twenty two
Speaker 9: hat Field AMTRF three two radio radio that runs on batteries,
Speaker 9: powers a horn type loudspeaker and looks like a kitchen
Speaker 9: cabinet but requires an end table to put the speaker on.
Speaker 9: I'm featuring this radio today the closest I can muster
Speaker 9: to an homage to what I remember the old Tom
Speaker 9: Slick cartoons, with the Tom Slick cartoon lampooning the car
Speaker 9: race as the car race with non fruit bery native
Speaker 9: Americans known as the Applis Indians five hundred.
Speaker 1: I never heard. I never heard that. That's crazy. I
Speaker 1: love it. Oh, it's fantastic, The Apples Indians five hundred.
Speaker 9: Yep, that field with an Indianapolis company located downtown. The
Speaker 9: factory and store was actually located at five hundred North
Speaker 9: Borian Street, which is interesting. And it's in a building
Speaker 9: long ago demolished to make way for an insurance company
Speaker 9: that would give young Ricky his first computer job. So
Speaker 9: it's kind of close to home there. This this radio
Speaker 9: such as it is sold for three hundred and fifty
Speaker 9: bucks back then a mere six thousand, six hundred dollars today.
Speaker 9: But let's go to the catalog, shall we. Wow. The
Speaker 9: Hatfield set is complete in every detail. It embodies all
Speaker 9: that is latest in manufacture and design, and its receptiveness
Speaker 9: is the most sensitive of any instrument on the market today. Well,
Speaker 9: that's patently false. Even though there were only a handful
Speaker 9: of competitors in nineteen twenty two, anything with more than
Speaker 9: three tubes was going to be far more sensitive because
Speaker 9: that's how these old torf radios work.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
Speaker 9: Completely equipped and self contained, ready to operate when attached
Speaker 9: to aerial. Yeah, except for having to install and connect
Speaker 9: the battery, install the tubes, connect the speaker. See whatever.
Speaker 9: When you buy a hat Field set, you are patronizing
Speaker 9: a hoo's your product. Don't you actually patronize the company,
Speaker 9: not the product.
Speaker 1: Well, I guess in a roundabout way, you're patronizing the
Speaker 1: specific product.
Speaker 9: But yes, maybe so. I just actually that was a question.
Speaker 9: And our broadcasting station, who is a product of our
Speaker 9: engineering department? So is our receiving set.
Speaker 1: I hope.
Speaker 9: So we are justly proud of both. If you enjoy
Speaker 9: and the proof of one, you will equally enthuse over
Speaker 9: the other. Didn't realize enthus was a verb. But okay, finally,
Speaker 9: where are distributors for the Radio Corporation of America A
Speaker 9: KAA r C A and DeForest? Guys? Last critique here?
Speaker 9: If you're going to be a distributor for DeForest? Spell
Speaker 9: his name right?
Speaker 1: Good point? Now? I always thought who was in des Moines?
Speaker 9: Actually stame on me? I was taking notes and uh
Speaker 9: spell check wins again. This is w O H, which
Speaker 9: is not never made the made the cut as a
Speaker 9: obviously as a three letter what is it called clear channel?
Speaker 9: Like wow?
Speaker 3: Just a fifty.
Speaker 9: Yeah it it wasn't that so obviously it was an
Speaker 9: early quote unquote experimental station. And yeah, there you go correct.
Speaker 9: Screw me all.
Speaker 1: Right, Well, next time, maybe you s you the hatfield
Speaker 1: for a McCoy.
Speaker 9: I'm gonna have to see if I can climb the McCoy.
Speaker 9: Oh right, cool, idea.
Speaker 1: Check with old radio Rick at gmail dot com. From
Speaker 1: the Sands of.
Speaker 15: Fallution climb to around seventy this afternoon with mostly sunny skies.
Speaker 15: Tonight we drop down to around fifty. We start off
Speaker 15: tomorrow partly sunny. Temperatures climb to just shy of seventy,
Speaker 15: and we could see a quick shower in the afternoon.
Speaker 1: For a severe weather station.
Speaker 15: I'm nine first warning Meteorologist Cameron Harden on news radio
Speaker 15: seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 16: Seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: Sport Reds and Cubs on Memorial Day weekend to loss.
Speaker 17: Last night, Reds loues thirteen to six, blowing a six
Speaker 17: to two lead in the seventh against the Cubs last night.
Speaker 17: The Reds are back in action this afternoon. Inside pitch
Speaker 17: begins at three ten, pitch a seven four ten right
Speaker 17: here on the hum of the Red seven hundred WLWL
Speaker 17: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Liam west Side, Jim, what's going on, my friend?
Speaker 18: Good morning Gary, Jeff. I just called to welcome Frankie
Speaker 18: into the Walker household. That's a good deal for you guys.
Speaker 14: Man.
Speaker 18: I saw the video of you playing with a look
Speaker 18: like yarn.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I got It's actually a it's a string
Speaker 1: tied to a pole. I'm catfishing, is what I'm doing.
Speaker 3: I see, I see.
Speaker 18: Well, I guess now I got to start saving up
Speaker 18: my pennies so I can get him some catnip.
Speaker 1: You know what. And he I laid some out on
Speaker 1: the floor when we first got him home on Thursday evening,
Speaker 1: and he didn't know quite what to make of it.
Speaker 1: But he is playing with one of Brooksy's old toys
Speaker 1: that did at one time contain catnip, and he enjoyed
Speaker 1: playing with the toy. Yes, whatever you'd like to contribute
Speaker 1: to the Frankie Fund will be greatly appreciated. We accept
Speaker 1: all donations.
Speaker 18: Jim, And you know, I want to say something besides
Speaker 18: Frankie on this weekend. I'm kind of disappointed a day
Speaker 18: from Harrison. He didn't talk about the main thing that
Speaker 18: this weekend Memorial Day, besides the fact of what. We're
Speaker 18: not celebrating what happened back in w W two and
Speaker 18: so forth.
Speaker 3: But the Big Race.
Speaker 18: You haven't talked about the Big Race, and I'm kind
Speaker 18: of disappointed in that.
Speaker 1: Well, actually, old Radio Rick made allusions to the Indianapolis
Speaker 1: five hundred because he's with an earshot of the track.
Speaker 1: So yes, we did talk about the big race.
Speaker 18: Well, I'm not talking about that one. I'm talking about
Speaker 18: the weeniemobiles. He had a race yesterday. All five of
Speaker 18: them were out on that track.
Speaker 1: You know, I did a broadcast from the Oscar Meyer
Speaker 1: wienermobile when I was in Nashville, and I'm very claustrophobic.
Speaker 1: I would not recommend it for anyone who's afraid of
Speaker 1: cramp spaces.
Speaker 3: Oh I am too, I am too.
Speaker 18: But it was five of them on the track at
Speaker 18: the same time.
Speaker 7: That's history.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, obviously you're a person who enjoys watching
Speaker 1: weenies go round. So I hope, I hope you had
Speaker 1: a good time. Jim, have fantastic Have a fantastic weekend.
Speaker 3: Brother.
Speaker 1: We got to run the gang from Ripley on the
Speaker 1: way ad minutes on seven under w vehicles like the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five E Class C. L. Steves from Menton,
Speaker 1: Ohio is back with some words this weekend. He elaborates,
Speaker 1: Good morning Steve, Good.
Speaker 10: Morning Gary Jeff. When Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred removed
Speaker 10: the ineligible tag on seventeen deceased major league players, he declared,
Speaker 10: and I quote, it's hard to conceive a penalty that
Speaker 10: has more deterrent effect than one that lasts the lifetime. Well,
Speaker 10: for shoeless Joe Jackson, it was a lifetime plus seventy
Speaker 10: five years. But Joe's case was far different than say, that.
Speaker 1: Of Pete Rose.
Speaker 10: When Joe's Chicago White Sox threw the nineteen nineteen World
Speaker 10: Series to Cincinnati, the then Commissioner of Baseball, Judge Lambdies,
Speaker 10: added Jackson's name to the list of those banished from
Speaker 10: Major League Baseball, despite evidence of guilt that would never
Speaker 10: hold water unless Joe was wearing a Maga hat in
Speaker 10: a New York courtroom. He neither took money nor consorted
Speaker 10: with gamblers. He had three seventy five in the series,
Speaker 10: almost twenty five points higher than his season average. He
Speaker 10: made no errors in the field. What he allegedly did
Speaker 10: was seen money on his roommate's bed. And there's no
Speaker 10: record of their having a conversation about fix in the series.
Speaker 10: Joe doesn't need to be reinstated, he needs to have
Speaker 10: his name clear to the entire mess and Commissioner landis
Speaker 10: called out for an atrocity, speaking of which, this week,
Speaker 10: Donald Trump invited the leader of South Africa to the
Speaker 10: White House to explain South Africa's version of CRT. White
Speaker 10: farmers are being killed by blacks who take over their
Speaker 10: farms with no compensation to the families. ABC News says
Speaker 10: there's no proof, there's pluenty. We've offered asylum to the victims,
Speaker 10: and that has deeply upset the Democrats. Twenty sixteen Vice
Speaker 10: presidential candidate Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, I asked, what
Speaker 10: if the shoe were on the other foot. South Africa
Speaker 10: never changes, just the colors. And then there's the Christians
Speaker 10: in North Africa, many of whom are black. And did
Speaker 10: there was more talk this week about the conspiracy theory
Speaker 10: that we conservatives had about Joe Biden's health problems during
Speaker 10: and before his presidency. Democrat media mavens are now trying
Speaker 10: to sell books proving we were right. Thanks for nothing,
Speaker 10: Carrie Jeff and I have talked over the years about
Speaker 10: the secrecy behind the serious health problems of Presidents Wilson, FDR,
Speaker 10: and of course JFK whose battle with Addison's disease and
Speaker 10: a failed back surgery led the drug addiction that was
Speaker 10: covered up by folks inside and outside the government. We
Speaker 10: still wonder how Franklin Roosevelt survived the fiasco known as
Speaker 10: Pearl Harbor despite several Congressional investigations. The Pentagon Papers and
Speaker 10: dozens of books before, during, and after Vietnam exposed a
Speaker 10: schizophrenic foreign policy that killed almost sixty thousand of our
Speaker 10: best and brightest men and women in uniform, which honor
Speaker 10: raise a question trust in government. Doctor Dennis has given
Speaker 10: me a marvelous present. Josiah Thompson's updated treat use on
Speaker 10: what happened during and after the assassination of John F.
Speaker 10: Kennedy Last Second in Dallas does not rehash conspiracy theories.
Speaker 10: It does give you the real science of photographic and
Speaker 10: acoustic evidence at the scene in Dallas. What we now
Speaker 10: know makes the shambles of the Warren Commission report and
Speaker 10: the later House Committee on Assassinations. We're now almost sure
Speaker 10: that there were at least six shots fired and probably
Speaker 10: from two different locations, so it's extremely hard to believe
Speaker 10: Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. Combining this with info from
Speaker 10: the nineteen eighties book High Treason, I ran across some
Speaker 10: of the early government figures who dared to question procedures
Speaker 10: and findings of the boards of Inquiry. One of them
Speaker 10: was Kentucky United States Senator John Sherman Cooper, born and
Speaker 10: raised in Somerset in Pulaski County. He was on the
Speaker 10: Warren Commission and concluded then Oswald probably did not act alone.
Speaker 10: Earl Warren did his best to quiet the dissent, but
Speaker 10: we now know that important evidence was pushed aside, and
Speaker 10: too many government agencies gave witness that only tended to
Speaker 10: cover their backside, more cannon fodder for those of us
Speaker 10: who distrust government. And now Robert F. Kennedy Junior has
Speaker 10: a key position in government, and we thought we would
Speaker 10: finally get some push from inside, but all we've gotten
Speaker 10: so far are more heavily redacted pages. Could it be
Speaker 10: that so many individuals and organizations inside and outside of government,
Speaker 10: both domestic and foreign, are guilty that everyone in power
Speaker 10: today is scared that transparency would destroy what little belief
Speaker 10: we still have in government and therefore destroy their current agendas. Last,
Speaker 10: but certainly not least two more Israelites were murdered in
Speaker 10: America this week. The River to the Sea is now
Speaker 10: the Atlantic to the Pacific. Shame on us. Happy and
Speaker 10: memorable Memorial Day. Everybody say thanks, even the people you
Speaker 10: never knew. Take care of yourself.
Speaker 1: Wow, there's nothing else to say. He said it all
Speaker 1: just now six fifty two three three BG, Cincinnati's six
Speaker 1: fifty five on a Saturday morning, Brother Ray Scott in Loveland,
Speaker 1: how are you this morning?
Speaker 19: Good morning, my friend Gary Jeff Walker, Good morning, and
Speaker 19: I want to tell you I want to thank you
Speaker 19: in the for what you do all the time.
Speaker 7: You know, especially on Moral Day, paying tribute and keep
Speaker 7: keeping it real.
Speaker 1: What moral Day is.
Speaker 7: How much I appreciate that. And I truly miss having
Speaker 7: a store and this is the weekend. We would always
Speaker 7: put up a new American flags on both sides of
Speaker 7: the building and we would put on the sign a
Speaker 7: tribute and unable to do that, and you're so kind
Speaker 7: to let me do it as I'm going to do
Speaker 7: it doing right now on the air. And that is
Speaker 7: that land of the Free because of the brave, and
Speaker 7: I'm so thankful and I'm so I just I want
Speaker 7: to say, you know, Washington, d C. We do a
Speaker 7: lot of things that are screwed up, but a couple
Speaker 7: of years ago we were lucky enough to go there.
Speaker 7: And one thing that we do in America is we
Speaker 7: do pay tribute to our fallen and our military and
Speaker 7: those who serve. And it's very moving. Anyone who hasn't
Speaker 7: been there high they recommend it. I mean, it's so
Speaker 7: moving to walk past the memorials, you know, the Vietnam Moral,
Speaker 7: to go to Arlington and it's just astonishing. In fact,
Speaker 7: in this weekend, I'll be spending time with the family
Speaker 7: that lost a dear member in and Iraq in the
Speaker 7: Middle East, and they will pay tribute to him. And
Speaker 7: when we see the strikes in that flag, the red
Speaker 7: in that flag and me represents the blood that probably most,
Speaker 7: if not everyone listening to this program this morning has
Speaker 7: family who have shed blood for in all into pursuit
Speaker 7: of freedom. And we're so fortunate. So thank you so much, Carrie, Jeff,
Speaker 7: God bless you, my brother, and God bless America, and
Speaker 7: God bless our fallen and their families.
Speaker 1: God bless you, sir. Thank you real quick, David in
Speaker 1: Township Park. I've got less than two minutes, but the
Speaker 1: floor is yours.
Speaker 8: Any more time than that, you'll probably want to hear
Speaker 8: what they.
Speaker 7: Got to say.
Speaker 6: I'm in McDonald's getting the coffee and a negatant muffin,
Speaker 6: and I want to talk real quick about World War
Speaker 6: two and my uncles.
Speaker 1: Okay, you have the time now. I don't have any
Speaker 1: more time than I've got, David, so please do the
Speaker 1: rest of you.
Speaker 20: I'll talk to Ken later this morning. Anyhow I had
Speaker 20: My dad was in Guam. He has eleven kids.
Speaker 1: He's passed away.

Speaker 20: He was in the army and he hosed out the
Speaker 20: seventeen's body parts.
Speaker 1: And my uncle Bob flew.
Speaker 20: P thirty eight lightning and the headge rows on D Day.
Speaker 1: Did you catch all that?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know what. This is a conversation. We need to
Speaker 1: have it a later time, David, because I simply don't
Speaker 1: have any more time to run through the entire litany
Speaker 1: of your family's contributions and service to our country. But
Speaker 1: we are grateful. Words and monuments cannot do justice to
Speaker 1: yours and everyone else who gave the ultimate sacrifice for
Speaker 1: this nation. But we do the best we can, and
Speaker 1: we honor them this weekend.
Speaker 21: Not everyone who handles your personal information is as careful
Speaker 21: as you are, which might explain why there's a victim
Speaker 21: of identity theft every five seconds.
Speaker 1: It is Tommy Chong's birthday, by the way, among other things.
Speaker 1: And uh, do you have it now? If Liam has
Speaker 1: it right now, let's uh, let's go ahead and honor
Speaker 1: the great Tommy Chong, who today I believe is let's
Speaker 1: see here, he's eighty seven today with his longtime partner
Speaker 1: Cheach Meren. It's seven o seven and Dave's not here.
Speaker 22: It's me, Dave, open up, man, I got the stuff.
Speaker 14: That it's me, Dave.
Speaker 22: Man, open up, I got the stuff. Who it's Dave Man,
Speaker 22: open up. I think the cops saw me come in here.
Speaker 1: It's it's Dave Man, will you open up?
Speaker 17: I got the stuff with me.
Speaker 1: Who Dave Man? Open up?
Speaker 14: Dave, Yeah, Dave, come on.
Speaker 8: That, open up.
Speaker 16: I think I'm not here.
Speaker 1: Open the door.
Speaker 23: It's to Dave.
Speaker 1: Dave Day's not here. But Steve Shulty is good morning,
Speaker 1: mister Shulty. How are you?
Speaker 3: Good morning?
Speaker 4: Gary, Jeff and I have the vinyl of that.
Speaker 7: Cheeks and jaw.
Speaker 1: I'm not surprised we all had the vinyl of that
Speaker 1: this morning real quickly. In our environmental update, uh, we're
Speaker 1: talking about using the technique of using rubber crumb from
Speaker 1: scrap tires to make steel.
Speaker 20: Yep.
Speaker 4: So this comes from I know people like environment climate stuff,
Speaker 4: but I thought this is interesting. But this is from
Speaker 4: Way three sixty Daily Wire from this past Thursday, May
Speaker 4: twenty second art goal front by Eddie Lard just from
Speaker 4: roadside blight the clear steel production scraps hire trial scores
Speaker 4: for the environment and Manufacturing US coach from Alabama where
Speaker 4: and out and say of Alabama, more than forty million
Speaker 4: tires per year are scraped in the US. I looked
Speaker 4: it up this morning. Over two hundred and eighty million tires.
Speaker 4: So when they're improperly discarded create all kinds of environmental issues.
Speaker 4: Obviously the litter and whatnot. If they're in a pile,
Speaker 4: they're almost like ev when it comes the entire piles
Speaker 4: get on fire. That's almost like an EV.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 4: So they say of Alabama was looking for ways to
Speaker 4: solve their scrap tire problem, and the steelmaker SSAB and
Speaker 4: Alabama was looking for opportunities to make it still making
Speaker 4: more environmentally friendly. And they operate a melt shop and
Speaker 4: access Alabama and their mobile and did a trial of
Speaker 4: this experiment using the crown rubber from scrap tires in
Speaker 4: their steelmaking process. Yeah, basically to effectively replace some of
Speaker 4: the coke, which is a form of charcoal from coal.
Speaker 4: And basically what they found is after the trial the
Speaker 4: steel quality is not impacted in the negative way, furnace
Speaker 4: efficiency was great, and most importantly the regarding air emissions.
Speaker 4: Based on the data available, looks like crumb rubber can
Speaker 4: be a suitable alternative to conventional carbon when looking at
Speaker 4: gas emissions. So it looks like SSAB is looking at
Speaker 4: this will be putting this material into their furnaces and
Speaker 4: hopefully rest around the rest of the country get rid
Speaker 4: of live scrap tires and make our steel.
Speaker 1: Hey, there is nothing wrong with any kind of productive recycling.
Speaker 1: I mean there is. And let's make the most of
Speaker 1: what we've got available at all times. Thank you very much, Steve.
Speaker 1: We got to move along as seven to eleven now
Speaker 1: one hundred WLW.
Speaker 24: Sometimes I get a little hungry in the afternoon, but
Speaker 24: instead of reaching for junk food, I pull out a
Speaker 24: healthy pack of number one Shogun dried cuttlefish. The Crunchies
Speaker 24: dried cuttlefish guaranteed the perfect salty fish munch you While listening.
Speaker 14: To Eddie and Rocky, Dried cuttlefish is an excellent source
Speaker 14: of protein and calcium. Eddie and Rocky are an excellent
Speaker 14: source for local issues, one of a kind interviews and
Speaker 14: fun times Eddie and Rockey Monday afternoon at three.
Speaker 21: On seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: Side here on the headlines of the day and the
Speaker 1: news this week, specifically the assassination of two innocent people
Speaker 1: in our nation's capital by a crazy person who believes
Speaker 1: that free Palestine means killed Jews. I'm not Jewish, but
Speaker 1: I am a Zionist, So you want to shoot medie
Speaker 1: it here? I am as a Christian, I can be
Speaker 1: nothing but a Zionist because the Bible tells me that
Speaker 1: Israel is the Promised Land. Zionism only means that you
Speaker 1: believe that Jews belong in Israel, that it is there,
Speaker 1: God's chosen people, God's Promised Land, the Holy Land. That's
Speaker 1: all that means. And I firmly believe that. And yes,
Speaker 1: Jesus was a Jew, not a Palestinian. Like some drag
Speaker 1: queen on the news said, unbelievable. A lot of mixed
Speaker 1: up people out there in the world. No room for
Speaker 1: that kind of hate, no matter how you feel about
Speaker 1: Gaza or anything else. I am a Zionist, so unafraid,
Speaker 1: and I hope more Christians will stand up and claim
Speaker 1: their Zionism as well, because the Bible says so. And
Speaker 1: that's reason good enough for me. What does Tom Davis say?
Speaker 1: I call this the just wild lackey stories that don't
Speaker 1: involve hate or death or destruction. I hope Tom Davis.
Speaker 1: What do you got?
Speaker 21: Good morning, Gary, Jeff This week five k's worth of nakedness.
Speaker 21: But first in Pennsylvania, a lunch lady who had had
Speaker 21: enough finally took action and taped a kid's mouth shut.
Speaker 21: The Stroudsburg School district says they're terminating Dorothy Lanza after
Speaker 21: she failed to deliver an acceptable standard of care when
Speaker 21: it comes to protecting students. As it was a joke,
Speaker 21: I'm just wondering did it work. A New York City
Speaker 21: man was out enjoying a bike path when he was
Speaker 21: bit by a copperhead snake of all things. The snake
Speaker 21: bit him on his right index finger. He was rushed
Speaker 21: to Hackensack University Medical Center and was saved from permanent damage.
Speaker 21: In India, a missing man joined the search party looking
Speaker 21: for him. He went out the night before and had
Speaker 21: a little too much to drink and wandered into the woods.
Speaker 21: The next day, he joined the search party and was
Speaker 21: calling out his own name when he realized that he
Speaker 21: was the Bahen Mootlo that the group was looking for.
Speaker 21: He was quickly reunited with his wife and friends. And finally,
Speaker 21: It's a five K like no other. A South Carolina
Speaker 21: nudist resort is hosting a clothing optional five K race.
Speaker 21: It's scheduled to kick off in just a few weeks.
Speaker 21: They already have one hundred and sixty one people signed up.
Speaker 21: The guy organizing it says that getting naked in any
Speaker 21: other race would cause the police to be involved, but
Speaker 21: on their private land. Well, you can have your private
Speaker 21: swinging and bouncing along as much as you'd like. While
Speaker 21: the five k's take off, last year's Naked Winter had
Speaker 21: a time of twenty one minutes and forty five seconds.
Speaker 21: Next week, a Turkish toddler becomes the youngest corporate executive ever.
Speaker 1: Have a great Memorial Day weekend?
Speaker 18: Yeah wow, last, does anyone have any questions for the
Speaker 18: sanitation worker logan?
Speaker 24: If you find a dead body in a trash can,
Speaker 24: do you have to stop what you're doing?
Speaker 1: Or do you just toss it in the garbage truck
Speaker 1: and go?
Speaker 25: Sometimes you'd rather have someone else take on the tough questions.
Speaker 1: That's when you listen to Scott Sloan. I'll give you
Speaker 1: some expert guess. I'll give you your chance to talk together.
Speaker 1: Maybe we can solve a few things. Then again, maybe not.
Speaker 25: Check out Sloaning Monday morning at nine on seven hundred
Speaker 25: w welw Hey.
Speaker 16: It's Mateggor with my guy John from Window World.
Speaker 7: John.
Speaker 1: We hear all the time about energy star windows. What

Speaker 15: Not too bad of a weekend shaping up as we're
Speaker 15: in the mid forties this morning, but climb to around
Speaker 15: seventy this afternoon with mostly sunny skies. Tonight we drop
Speaker 15: down to around fifty. We start off tomorrow partly sunny.
Speaker 15: Temperatures climbed to just shy of seventy, and we could
Speaker 15: see a quick shower in the afternoon from a severe
Speaker 15: weather station. I'm nine First Warning Meteorologist Cameron Harden on
Speaker 15: news radio seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 16: Seven hundred WLW Sports Lillam Tomlinson.
Speaker 1: There is so much going on this weekend, including the
Speaker 1: Reds and the Cubs. After just you know what, the
Speaker 1: Cubs did what they always do and what they've done
Speaker 1: all season long. They scored runs, and they scored runs
Speaker 1: at the right time last night when the Reds thought
Speaker 1: they might get away with one Hunter Green starting on
Speaker 1: the mound and pitching well as Hunter Green has pretty
Speaker 1: much all season long, but then the bullpen let the
Speaker 1: Reds down, and I don't know if as much the
Speaker 1: bullpen as it was Chicago's just potent offense, which they
Speaker 1: prove in time and time again all season long against
Speaker 1: almost everybody in the league.
Speaker 17: Yeah, the Cubs are just a deep team, and I
Speaker 17: think the Cubs are just a good team in general.
Speaker 17: But the Reds bullpen on a Hunter Green night, those
Speaker 17: losses hurt the worst. When you have a four run
Speaker 17: lead at one point and you have Hunter Green on
Speaker 17: the mound in the same game. Those are the games
Speaker 17: you have to win if you want to be a
Speaker 17: good ball club.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, and again I'm going to ask
Speaker 1: about the feasibility of keeping Ian Jabou in the bullpen.
Speaker 1: I mean, I hate to point to one guy, but
Speaker 1: he has been a part of failure on that back
Speaker 1: end of the bullpen over and over again. That's why
Speaker 1: he was sent down.
Speaker 17: And the roster construction really doesn't make sense at the moment.
Speaker 17: I don't really understand the need for three catchers, especially
Speaker 17: we're not going to play one of them. I get
Speaker 17: Austin wins was good when Tyler Stevenson was hurt, but resigns.
Speaker 17: He can hit a ball out of the park, and
Speaker 17: if you have the chance for pop. You kind of
Speaker 17: need that in the lineup right.
Speaker 1: Now, absolutely, and Stevenson really hasn't been the same since
Speaker 1: he came back. With that being said, the Reds lose
Speaker 1: last night thirteen to six, and today we go at
Speaker 1: it again, another try against the first place Cubs, and
Speaker 1: the Reds are only six and a half games back,
Speaker 1: so it's not like the season is lost, but this
Speaker 1: is a pivotable series and the Cubs have them.
Speaker 17: The Reds face the Cubs again next weekend as well,
Speaker 17: so if they take this series starting tonight with first
Speaker 17: pitch set at four times, inside pitch coverage at three ten,
Speaker 17: you have a chance to catch up those six and
Speaker 17: a half real quick. You catch all that action right
Speaker 17: here on the home of the Red seven hundred wlw
Speaker 17: our FC.
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Soccer Club has been either in first place or
Speaker 1: flirting with it all year long, had the against Columbus
Speaker 1: and the Hell is Real match last week, and they're
Speaker 1: back added on the road tomorrow.
Speaker 17: The one Too Blue are currently one point back of
Speaker 17: first place for the Supporters Shield. The pregame coverage for
Speaker 17: tomorrow's match against Atlanta United begins at six point thirteen.
Speaker 17: Kickoff is set for seven you got NBA playoffs going on.
Speaker 17: The Knicks lose another one at home, and now we're
Speaker 17: down two oh to the Pacers. Heading back to Indiana
Speaker 17: after the game last night, Yeah, Pacers win one, fourteen
Speaker 17: to one oh nine, taking two on the road and
Speaker 17: coming back to Indianapolis for a Sunday everybody match.
Speaker 1: Everybody who cares and watched it was talking about how
Speaker 1: Indiana came back in that first game against the Knicks
Speaker 1: and pushed the game to overtime, eventually winning, And I
Speaker 1: had somebody say it was the most exciting basketball game
Speaker 1: they'd seen all year.
Speaker 17: Tyrese Haliburton is eleven to twelve on game winning shots
Speaker 17: this year. That's pretty good.
Speaker 1: Yeah. In the West, what's going on out there?
Speaker 17: Nuggets, Thunder play a game three tonight. Ok see, leads
Speaker 17: the series two oh but a series does not start
Speaker 17: until you lose at home. Now, excuse me, though, Timberwolves,
Speaker 17: and the Timberwolves are looking to get one this evening
Speaker 17: at eight thirty.
Speaker 1: Got the Indianapolis five hundred, the greatest spectacle in racing,
Speaker 1: Big Racing Day tomorrow and then the Coca Cola six hundred,
Speaker 1: which is the one hundred and twenty ninth Cup race
Speaker 1: hosted Charlotte Motor Speedway one point five mile Oval, and
Speaker 1: is anybody trying to do both this year.
Speaker 17: And the Monaco Grand Prix if you can have a
Speaker 17: private jet.
Speaker 1: Right exactly if you feel like heading to Monaco for
Speaker 1: Memorial Day weekend. Now, Charles Schwab is going on in
Speaker 1: the PGA and none of the big names really there.
Speaker 1: I guess Scotti Scheffler decided to take this one off
Speaker 1: even though he was entered in the tournament after winning
Speaker 1: the PGA last week, which was just that was a
Speaker 1: remarkable victory for Scotty. Yeah, what a win for Scotty Cheffer.
Speaker 17: It felt like he was close this year who never
Speaker 17: got over the hump, and it just felt like the
Speaker 17: week before at the Byron Cup, it really all came
Speaker 17: together when he shot thirty under and set himself up
Speaker 17: for a successful PGA tour.
Speaker 1: YEP, absolutely good stuff all weekend long, and of course
Speaker 1: Taste of Cincinnati, which kicks off this morning at eleven o'clock.
Speaker 1: Jim Lebarber, the music Professor, is here with Rock and

Speaker 1: Taste of Cincinnati Red's in the Cubs game two this
Speaker 1: afternoon rots here my friends, and how about a little
Speaker 1: science a science minute that is with science Mike waiting
Speaker 1: for this all morning.
Speaker 11: Law Yes, as a night scientist's a bit surprising, now
Speaker 11: binding me with It's.
Speaker 1: A bit surprising, indeed always a bit surprising what he
Speaker 1: comes up with. Michael, good morning, How are you, sir? Mike? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm here.
Speaker 3: Can you hear me?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: I can?
Speaker 3: Now, Okay, all right, let's get do it. Have you
Speaker 3: Memorial Day.
Speaker 1: Weekend and a good Real Day weekend to you as well, sir.
Speaker 12: So, my my wife says she really enjoys the professor's
Speaker 12: segment and I would really like to meet him. And uh,
Speaker 12: but she never says anything about liking science Mike's segment,
Speaker 12: but just to just to say that she enjoys professors.
Speaker 1: Here's here's the thing, before we get into any of this, Michael,
Speaker 1: my wife enjoys the show, right uh, And and I
Speaker 1: think she enjoys the show not for me. She enjoys
Speaker 1: the show for you, for Steve Shilty, for the music professor,
Speaker 1: for mo, for all the different parts that make up
Speaker 1: this show. She gets enough of me on a regular basis.
Speaker 1: I mean, my wife can tune into the Gary Jeff
Speaker 1: Show and has to tune into it whether she wants
Speaker 1: to or not on a regular And you know what,
Speaker 1: if I'm tired of hearing me talk, which but people
Speaker 1: don't believe, but after almost forty five years of doing radio,
Speaker 1: I really am sick of hearing me. I hear me
Speaker 1: all many times. I tell myself to shut up. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: So imagine what it's like for your your loving spouse.
Speaker 1: She cares about you, she loves you, but she gets more.
Speaker 1: She gets like a science eon at home. She doesn't
Speaker 1: need a science mint it on Saturday morning, but she
Speaker 1: she doesn't get enough of the music. I mean unless
Speaker 1: unless we don't know something that is real, Michael. She's
Speaker 1: not living with the music professor or spending any time
Speaker 1: off the radio with him. So that's probably why she
Speaker 1: enjoys him so much for the few minutes she gets
Speaker 1: to hear him on Saturday. Did you ever consider.
Speaker 12: This, I'll have to get the meeting together at the
Speaker 12: bar sometime, but to go over the photo album.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, when keepsake, Kim get gets the the anniversary
Speaker 1: book together and we'll have a time to get together
Speaker 1: at the bar to view what was a wonderful anniversary
Speaker 1: party again this year. Then perhaps the professor will be there.
Speaker 1: You can bring the wife and she can get her fixed. Finally,
Speaker 1: of Jim Lebarbara. So what have you got for us
Speaker 1: this morning?
Speaker 12: Oh?
Speaker 7: Real quick.
Speaker 12: Borgia one is back in the news again. You know,
Speaker 12: Borger one was launcheding nineteen seventy seven. The Worger one's
Speaker 12: way out there. Yeah, it's fifty five billion miles away,
Speaker 12: so it's a fifteen billion actually, it's way out there.
Speaker 12: The problem is that we have secondary primary thrusters on
Speaker 12: the spacecraft, and in two thousand and four, the roll thrusters,
Speaker 12: which tell the spacecraft which started to look at the
Speaker 12: orient itself to earth the roll thruster, the primary went
Speaker 12: off line. The heaters broke. They didn't think it was
Speaker 12: going to ever. You know, they had backups, so they
Speaker 12: just went to the backup, never dreaming that it would
Speaker 12: last another twenty years. But they went back to look
Speaker 12: at the frustra issue. Because these just like in our
Speaker 12: fuel lines and our fuel injection, to get clogged, you
Speaker 12: got to put the gum out of it. And right
Speaker 12: these propellant lines are getting clogged up on the spacecraft
Speaker 12: and the primary is needed for the roll thruster to
Speaker 12: get back online.
Speaker 7: And they found out that they actually somebody.
Speaker 3: Turned off the heaters.
Speaker 1: They heat the.
Speaker 12: Line for the propellant to come through, and the problem
Speaker 12: is it's twenty three hour length of communication when you
Speaker 12: sent a command to this spacecraft way out there to
Speaker 12: get any answer back. So they had to take a
Speaker 12: chance to fire up the turn the thruster the heaters
Speaker 12: back on, and at the if the craft was off
Speaker 12: a little bit, it would automatically say, hey, kick on
Speaker 12: the roll thrusters to lie to the star. If that happened,
Speaker 12: and they had these heaters that didn't turn on, the
Speaker 12: kind of the spacecraft will kind of like have a
Speaker 12: little mild explosion. So they had to take a chance
Speaker 12: of fire the heaters on and then the thrusters kicked
Speaker 12: it and everything. Actually it's amazing, but then they fixed
Speaker 12: it that it works again and they have their primary
Speaker 12: back primary system thrusters back online for this thing.
Speaker 1: You said, Voyager, you said, is what fifteen billion miles
Speaker 1: away from Earth?
Speaker 7: Now?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 12: Fifteen yeah, fifteen billions five miles.
Speaker 1: Per hour nineteen seventy one, seventy seven, nineteen seventy seven
Speaker 1: and they and they can't make a car that lasts
Speaker 1: forty thousand miles without needing a transmission. What does that
Speaker 1: tell you? It tells you. It tells you that they're
Speaker 1: into selling more cars, is what it tells you. They're
Speaker 1: not selling any more Voyagers. All right, Michael. Thanks And
Speaker 1: by the way, Voyager was made in the USA. Correct,
Speaker 1: that's correct, USA, USA, USA. Thank you, Michael. Have a
Speaker 1: great weekend. We'll take a break.

Speaker 1: Good morning kids time will gifts from Wally And this
Speaker 1: does not sound like me and my wife. A woman's
Speaker 1: helping her husband set up as a computer and at
Speaker 1: the appropriate point in the process, he told him he'd
Speaker 1: now need to enter a password, something he could easily
Speaker 1: remember and use each time he would log on. Well,
Speaker 1: the husband's kind of a smart Alec and figured he
Speaker 1: would try for the shock and awe to bring to
Speaker 1: his wife's attention. So when the computer asked him to
Speaker 1: enter his password, he made it plainly obvious to his
Speaker 1: wife that he was King and p E N I S.

Speaker 1: How we doing We're doing well, sir. How are you,
Speaker 1: my friend?
Speaker 8: I'm good man. What's going on?
Speaker 1: Sounds like you're on the road again today, mo I am, Yes, sir,
Speaker 1: good stuff. Do you ever get out to taste of
Speaker 1: Cincinnati anymore? I've been like one time in the thirty
Speaker 1: years I've lived here, and it was fun, but it
Speaker 1: was just one of those things that you know what,
Speaker 1: I can go and eat any of these places anytime
Speaker 1: if I want to without being in the throng. Do
Speaker 1: you thrive on the throng of Taste of Cincinnati or
Speaker 1: are you kinda I mean, are you over it? It's
Speaker 1: a huge celebration. It's the best food festival in the
Speaker 1: nation from what I've heard and what I've experienced myself.
Speaker 1: Where does mowegger come down on Taste of Cincinnati on
Speaker 1: Memorial Day weekend in Cincinnati, Ohio?
Speaker 8: Big Taste of Cincinnati guy, especially when the Reds are
Speaker 8: in town, which they are this weekend, and you can
Speaker 8: make it a Taste of Cincinnati Red kind of double header,
Speaker 8: which I plan on doing tomorrow. I'm always amused by
Speaker 8: the people who go to Tastes of Cincinnati and just
Speaker 8: try some of the same familiar things they can find
Speaker 8: in their own neighborhood.
Speaker 3: But I like it.
Speaker 8: I typically find one or two places that I haven't
Speaker 8: been to before that I get a chance to sample,
Speaker 8: and sometimes I'll be compelled to actually go to that restaurant.
Speaker 8: Always run into people that I know. Oh so, yeah,
Speaker 8: I uh, I like Cincinnati a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, It's it's like you said, though, it always kind
Speaker 1: of makes me go, well, what's the point if all
Speaker 1: you're gonna do is go to sayl Ross. Nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with l Roses, lovel Roses, but I mean, you can
Speaker 1: go there any day of the week. It's very accessible.
Speaker 1: There's multiple locations if you want a Lorosa's pie or
Speaker 1: anything else on their menu. It's not exactly a unique
Speaker 1: thing to find at the teast of Cincinnati, and yet
Speaker 1: people are lined up in long lines waiting for Lo
Speaker 1: Ros's or you know, any of the other, as you say,
Speaker 1: more accessible restaurants. I like to find a little ethnicity.
Speaker 1: I like to find something that's a little bit out
Speaker 1: of the the realm of the every day and uh,
Speaker 1: I guess the people watching is the biggest thing. You know,
Speaker 1: it's a food festival, but it's really about seeing the uh,
Speaker 1: the different garb that people are wearing, and what they're
Speaker 1: actually bold enough to go out in public, and and
Speaker 1: and that. Like anyway, I.
Speaker 8: Enjoy, I enjoy any event where people watching is as
Speaker 8: good as it is. It tastes of Cincinnati. You're right
Speaker 8: about the people getting this sort of fair that they
Speaker 8: score pretty much close to home. You know, It's it's
Speaker 8: one of my pet peeves. Whenever I go out of
Speaker 8: town with somebody yeah, and they want to eat at
Speaker 8: a restaurant that I can eat at in Cincinnati. Uh,
Speaker 8: that's not my jam. But as our former leader told us,
Speaker 8: Daryl Barks Wants gave me one of the best pieces
Speaker 8: of advice I've ever gotten doing sports talk radio, because
Speaker 8: this applies to.
Speaker 1: So many things.
Speaker 8: People don't know what they like, they like what they know.
Speaker 8: You see that it tastes of Cincinnati, absolutely.
Speaker 1: And the people watching is much better at tastes of
Speaker 1: Cincinnati than say, Walmart. The Reds playing the Cubs this weekend,
Speaker 1: and the Reds got a dose of what the rest
Speaker 1: of the league has gotten so far out of the
Speaker 1: Cubs when they play them. And that's just that offense
Speaker 1: that no lead is ever safe. And we saw that
Speaker 1: last night, and it speaks to a couple of key things.
Speaker 1: But first and foremost wasn't last night and the pounding
Speaker 1: that the Reds wind up taking more about the Cubs
Speaker 1: than it was the Reds.
Speaker 8: I was about to say that exact same thing. You know,
Speaker 8: I know we're going to focus on the Reds deficiencies,
Speaker 8: and you know, I kind of had a excuse me,
Speaker 8: a bad feeling when Hunter Green gave up that two
Speaker 8: run homer and labored through the fourth because you knew
Speaker 8: what that being his first start coming off the injury list,
Speaker 8: it probably wasn't going to give the Reds much length.
Speaker 8: And obviously the Reds had some defensive issues and both
Speaker 8: en issues. But I think you're right that Chicago offense
Speaker 8: the best in the sport. Jeff brantley'sad on the radio
Speaker 8: broadcast last night, It's a lineup that you look at
Speaker 8: and go where's the hole. You know, they have Nico
Speaker 8: Horner betting at the bottom of their order. He was
Speaker 8: their leadoff hitter for years. They just have hitters after
Speaker 8: hitters after hitters. It's a really hard lineup to navigate.
Speaker 8: And I think you saw that last night. I think
Speaker 8: you saw firsthand why the Chicago Cups have led the
Speaker 8: National League Central pretty much all seats along, and why
Speaker 8: they were the odds on favorite to win this division
Speaker 8: and why it's their division to lose.
Speaker 18: They have pitching.
Speaker 8: Rotation issues, they've had to deal with injuries there, but
Speaker 8: they can score with anybody. And it came in a
Speaker 8: flash last night. I mean that game went from six
Speaker 8: to two to eight six like that, and that speaks
Speaker 8: to how good their offense.
Speaker 1: Is I don't want to single anybody out, but I'm
Speaker 1: going to is the Ian Jabo experiment over once and
Speaker 1: for all.
Speaker 8: It's a tough one because I think he's actually been
Speaker 8: better than a lot of people would suggest, and I
Speaker 8: think he was sort of failed by his defense last night. Yeah,
Speaker 8: but there's some validity to that, you know.
Speaker 1: I think if you look at that.
Speaker 8: Bullpen and you were to rank in order of trustworthiness
Speaker 8: in a high leverage situation, he might be at the bottom,
Speaker 8: which means he's the last guy in the bullpen, which means,
Speaker 8: in many respects, he's the last guy on the team.
Speaker 8: And so I think you're being reasonable if you wonder
Speaker 8: if there's someone at Louisville or somewhere else that might
Speaker 8: be a better option. I think that's totally fair. You know,
Speaker 8: you go back to opening day when when Terry Francona
Speaker 8: called upon Ianjebou to get the final three outs and
Speaker 8: it didn't work, and we all said, well, wait a minute,
Speaker 8: you're gonna use the guy who was the last one
Speaker 8: to make the team to get the final three outs
Speaker 8: of the first game of the season. And it's just
Speaker 8: really and he's been injured, but it just really hasn't
Speaker 8: gotten that much better. And it's a shame because there
Speaker 8: are some other really good arms having good seasons in
Speaker 8: the bullpen and he and jebau is not one of them.
Speaker 1: Us side for the Reds, how good is Hayes and
Speaker 1: how good can he be?
Speaker 8: You know, I tell you what the question is, and
Speaker 8: how good is he going to be? The question is
Speaker 8: can he stay healthy? He is a guy you know,
Speaker 8: they acquired him because they needed somebody who could hit lefties.
Speaker 8: Quite frankly, he's the only guy on the team right
Speaker 8: now who's hitting lefties. He's been good in the field,
Speaker 8: He's been really good at the plate. You know, he
Speaker 8: just has a pretty lengthy injury history. He's already been
Speaker 8: on the inter list twice so far this season. He
Speaker 8: has a long history of leg issues, half and hamstring specifically.
Speaker 8: But he was a really solid pickup and he had
Speaker 8: some really good seasons in Baltimore. And you saw when
Speaker 8: the Reds went back to Baltimore maybe a month or
Speaker 8: so ago, you know, his first game playing against the
Speaker 8: Orioles since he was traded last year, that crowd gave
Speaker 8: him a standing ovation. That tells you and he was
Speaker 8: a starter on teams that went to the postseason. You know,
Speaker 8: it didn't really work out for him when they traded
Speaker 8: him to Philadelphi last year, But yeah, can you imagine
Speaker 8: where this offense would be without him? And can you
Speaker 8: imagine what this offense would look like if he suffered
Speaker 8: another injury and hopefully he doesn't.
Speaker 1: Last week, we were talking about your New York Knicks
Speaker 1: finally overcoming and getting back on track to maybe win
Speaker 1: another NBA championship, and then they ran into the Indiana
Speaker 1: Pacers at home. Do you think that maybe the Knicks
Speaker 1: emptied their chamber emotionally with the series with Boston getting
Speaker 1: over that hump, and maybe now they're paying for it
Speaker 1: against the Pacers.
Speaker 8: Well, I feared that going into the series, but they
Speaker 8: had a fourteen point lead with three minutes ago in
Speaker 8: Game one, So I would imagine that they built that
Speaker 8: lead on the strength of, no, not just executing really
Speaker 8: well and playing really good on offense specifically, but being
Speaker 8: emotion ready to sort of bounce back from the high
Speaker 8: of beating the Boston Celtics, and then over those last
Speaker 8: three minutes in and overtime.
Speaker 1: They just melt it down.
Speaker 8: It's one of the most ethic collapses i've ever seen
Speaker 8: in Game one the other night, where the Knicks had
Speaker 8: a whole cacophony of turnovers, lazy defense, miss free throws,
Speaker 8: fifty to fifty balls that didn't.
Speaker 1: Go their way.
Speaker 8: But you have to credit the Indiana Pacers, and I
Speaker 8: think we've talked about this last week. Offensively, when you're
Speaker 8: not yelling at the television imploring the other team to
Speaker 8: get a stop the way I have been these first
Speaker 8: two games, their offense is something to behold because I
Speaker 8: don't know how you defend them. They have bigs that
Speaker 8: if you don't double, they kill you. But if you
Speaker 8: do double, you leave any one of their shooters open.
Speaker 8: They get to the rim, they run inventive, creative stuff.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 8: One of the issues that a lot of people have
Speaker 8: with the NBA, and I would cut myself among these people,
Speaker 8: is that all the offenses look the same, that there's
Speaker 8: too many frees, but too many frees taken at the
Speaker 8: end of you know what are pretty much, you know,
Speaker 8: non creative offensive possessions. The Indiana Pacers fly in the
Speaker 8: face of that. You know, if you love great offensive basketball,
Speaker 8: both up and down, playing in a really fast pace,
Speaker 8: which they do, but also execution in the half court.
Speaker 8: You gotta watch the Pacers. They've been awesome in this series.
Speaker 8: They were terrific last night. Every time it felt like
Speaker 8: the Knicks and that New York crowd was gonna get
Speaker 8: into it, or it felt like the Knicks may build
Speaker 8: not an insurmountable lead, but build a big lead, the
Speaker 8: Pacers had a response on offense. They're really fun to watch.
Speaker 8: They're probably gonna make the NBA Finals and will be
Speaker 8: a deserving representative at the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 1: Of that happened, a lot of people I have talked
Speaker 1: to or are motor racing enthusiasts this weekend and the
Speaker 1: rest of the time maybe not so much. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you who I am as far as the Indy five
Speaker 1: hundred goes. I'm the kind of guy that waits for
Speaker 1: back home again in Indiana and the start of the race,
Speaker 1: and then I'll kind of peek in every once in
Speaker 1: a while to see how the race is going, and
Speaker 1: I'll want to watch the finish, but for the bulk
Speaker 1: of the time, I'm not really paying any attention. And
Speaker 1: it's the same way with all races for me. The
Speaker 1: Coca Cola six hundred today, which is another huge NASCAR
Speaker 1: race on the back of the Great American Race. Are
Speaker 1: you are you like me? I mean, you might watch
Speaker 1: the start of the Indy five hundred and maybe peak
Speaker 1: in occasionally.
Speaker 8: You know, it's it's not unlike the Army Navy game
Speaker 8: for me, which is on my bucket list of sporting
Speaker 8: events to attend. And nothing against those individual football teams,
Speaker 8: but what brings me to the set is the pageantry, right,
Speaker 8: the spectacles, you know, regardless of which you're rooting for,
Speaker 8: I just think that's always such a really cool event.
Speaker 8: And then sometimes once the game starts, depending on how
Speaker 8: good Army or Navy is, it's not the best football game.
Speaker 8: But I watched the free game for the Army Navy
Speaker 8: game every year. The Indianapolis five hundred is the same
Speaker 8: for me. I've been lucky enough to attend it four times.
Speaker 8: I couldn't tell you who won any of the races.
Speaker 8: I couldn't even tell you that I watched combined across
Speaker 8: those four races one hundred laps, But the thirty or
Speaker 8: forty minutes before the race starts is something to watch.
Speaker 8: It's really cool and it's cool to watch on television.
Speaker 7: I was listening to you.
Speaker 8: And Liam talk about the Indy five hundred and the
Speaker 8: Coca Cola six hundred and wondering if anybody was going
Speaker 8: to do what others have done, which is race and both.
Speaker 8: And it's remarkable to me over the last twenty five
Speaker 8: or so years, you know, if you were were at
Speaker 8: the turn of the century, how huge NASCAR was, like,
Speaker 8: how mainscreen NASCAR was.
Speaker 1: Indeed, and you know, I'm.
Speaker 3: A huge sports fan.
Speaker 8: I don't know that I can name five NASCAR drivers
Speaker 8: right now, and I think most people are just like me.
Speaker 1: No, I mean not right now at the turn of
Speaker 1: the century. Absolutely I could have I could have checked
Speaker 1: him off, Jeff Gordon, Jimmy Johnson, Dale Earnhardt Junior. You know, yeah,
Speaker 1: so uh but yeah, so anyway, it's it's it's a
Speaker 1: big Memorial Day weekend event, both of them are. And
Speaker 1: for those that are enthusiastic and enjoy them all the better. Moe,
Speaker 1: have a fantastic Memorial Day weekend yourself, sir, and thank
Speaker 1: you for spending some time with us again this morning.
Speaker 4: I likewise, and we're talking next week, all.
Speaker 1: Right, very nice, Well, counselor, here we are Memorial Day weekend. Yep,
Speaker 1: any big plans, No, not really.
Speaker 30: I would like to it's a Reds game if I could.
Speaker 30: Giving a speech Monday morning for the Boy Scouts in Clarksville, Ohio.
Speaker 30: So I'm looking forward to that. I did it about
Speaker 30: five years ago. Great group.
Speaker 1: Were you a boy Scout?
Speaker 30: Well, I was, didn't do real well though. I couldn't
Speaker 30: get that damn fire started for some.
Speaker 1: I was a Cub Scout. I never made it to
Speaker 1: Boy Scouts, okay, but I built the Crystal radio set.
Speaker 1: Can you tell where my brain was even back as
Speaker 1: like a ten year older.
Speaker 30: I remember though my brother had and those are pretty cool.
Speaker 1: So what's on the show today.
Speaker 30: Well, we're going to be talking about, obviously the new
Speaker 30: revelations about Joe Biden with the cancer, which obviously you know,
Speaker 30: I hope he does okay with it. But to keep
Speaker 30: that from the country is just this is shaping up
Speaker 30: to be the biggest scandal in the history of this country.
Speaker 1: All of it. Well, from the fraudulent election in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1: What the revelation for me has been and I kind
Speaker 1: of already knew this. There was nothing, not one thing
Speaker 1: real about the Biden presidency, not the fact that he
Speaker 1: ascended to the office, not the fact that he wasn't
Speaker 1: in charge of anything obviously, which a lot of us
Speaker 1: knew and talked about. Yeah, and now this cancer that
Speaker 1: one doctor said he could have had for ten years
Speaker 1: and it could have affected everything, even his cognitive ability.
Speaker 30: These people are amazing, man, and somebody needs, or some
Speaker 30: more than one person needs to be held accountable for this.
Speaker 30: You just can't have this in a democracy. And I
Speaker 30: think even some of the Democrats now are talking about it.
Speaker 30: Wouldn't it be NICEO, Gary, Jeff if we could have
Speaker 30: a bi partisan investigation of this with bipartisan solutions. I
Speaker 30: hold my breath, but that would be the best way
Speaker 30: to handle it.
Speaker 1: Well, and it's time to change the name of the
Speaker 1: Democrat Party to the Communist Party, because that's what they are.
Speaker 30: They might as well, I mean, that's the things they espouse.
Speaker 1: That's what's going on. Is anybody particular on the show
Speaker 1: that you want to know?
Speaker 30: Yeah? I have Christopher Schmithman calling. He's love talking to him.
Speaker 30: Janis Heisel. We got some good topics we're going to
Speaker 30: talk about. And of course, yet he at eleven thirty
Speaker 30: on our beloved Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: All right, Memorial Day weekend after the show show at Huddles,
Speaker 1: if you want to come on down to Mama Street
Speaker 1: there in Newport and spend some time with us, we'd
Speaker 1: love to see you. And don't forget the farewell tour
Speaker 1: in Ripley tomorrow afternoon at two at Brookies seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: Thinking about a new roof? Is your chimney in need
Speaker 1: of repair? The experts at Vondahar are ready to help.
