Speaker 5: continuing here on the fifty five Casing Mornings show. Lori
Speaker 5: Flake from the Karen Wellington Foundation talking about an upcoming
Speaker 5: five K celebration, the Fun Run, taking place August sixteenth.
Speaker 5: Karen Wellington was diagnosed with breast cancer and ultimately died
Speaker 5: from it. She had a dream that when she was alive,
Speaker 5: before she passed away from breast cancer, she lived with
Speaker 5: it for ten years, that once she beat cancer, every
Speaker 5: year her family would send another family living with cancer
Speaker 5: on a vacation. So when she ultimately passed away in
Speaker 5: two thousand and seven, they turned her, you know, dream
Speaker 5: into a reality. The Karen Wellington Foundation was formed in
Speaker 5: two thousand and seven for folks living with breast cancer,
Speaker 5: and since two thousand and seven, the Foundation has gifted
Speaker 5: over three thousand what they call gifts of fun, which
Speaker 5: include beach vacation spot as, backstage passes, skydiving excursions, weekend getaways,
Speaker 5: game day tickets, hot air balloon rides, and just all
Speaker 5: kinds of things.
Speaker 3: Fun.
Speaker 5: Apparently is what Karen was all about, enjoying life, fellowship.
Speaker 5: So that's what the point is of the foundation. So
Speaker 5: we're going to help them out spread the word about
Speaker 5: maybe gets you involved in the five K celebration, maybe
Speaker 5: even just to show up at Voice of America Park
Speaker 5: in Westchester. That's where it's taking place. So looking forward
Speaker 5: to heaven. Laurie on the program to talk about the
Speaker 5: Karen Wellington Foundation again that at eight thirty five one three, seven,
Speaker 5: four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two three
Speaker 5: talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones since
Speaker 5: Christopher's coming on to talk about it. This shooting, innocent
Speaker 5: bystander gunned down in Over the Rhine happened on Wednesday,
Speaker 5: Green Street near Vine Street, fifteen minutes after nine pm,
Speaker 5: the second deadly shooting to take place in that particular
Speaker 5: area in twenty four hours. Police say she was shot
Speaker 5: in the back, found on the sixteen hundred block of
Speaker 5: Republic Street. Police Department SA. The woman was taken to
Speaker 5: UC Medical Center, where she died. They've identified her. It's
Speaker 5: Krishanda Sierra Win. She was only thirty four years old,
Speaker 5: unbelievable mother of five. One of her friends, speaking with
Speaker 5: local news WLW, said she touched a lot of people's hearts,
Speaker 5: had a caring, giving spirit, and was a very vibrant person.
Speaker 5: Gunman fired fifteen rounds from a vehicle on Green Street,
Speaker 5: then drove away. I'm sorry, you know, I'm always perplexed
Speaker 5: by this. What the hell is going on now? The
Speaker 5: president of the Over the Rhine Council, Maurice Wagoner, speaking
Speaker 5: with Channel five, and I don't understand this statement blamed
Speaker 5: the violence on what he calls a lack of response
Speaker 5: from law enforcement. Now we all know that lack of
Speaker 5: response from law enforcement is not where the violence comes from.
Speaker 5: It is a deterrent to violence. What drives violence is
Speaker 5: whatever going on in the head of the person who
Speaker 5: commits the violent act in this particular case, completely unjustifiable. Anyway,
Speaker 5: Maurice Wagoner said, we need a lot of presents on
Speaker 5: north of Lodi. We need a lot of police presidence
Speaker 5: north of Way Liberty Street, the officers walking the beat
Speaker 5: south of Liberty on Vron in main streets protecting that area.
Speaker 5: But we don't have anyone walking the beat north and
Speaker 5: protecting us. That may be a true statement. And we've
Speaker 5: all talked about since the beatdown incident of the twenty
Speaker 5: six about the allocation of scarce police resources. Where do
Speaker 5: you put them? I think we need to reach a
Speaker 5: full contingent of police officers. Maybe we could allocate resources
Speaker 5: better and perhaps better patrol the north of Liberty area.
Speaker 5: But that's not going to ultimately address where the violence
Speaker 5: comes from, and that of course goes back to that
Speaker 5: broader societal breakdown problem that we've been dealing with now
Speaker 5: that has been growing clearly anyway. Sergeant Phil Bacchina, speaking
Speaker 5: with Local five, said the padded to violence in the
Speaker 5: Cincinnati of latest frustrating. He said, there was somebody just
Speaker 5: freely firing a gun down the street and it hit her. Unacceptable,
Speaker 5: he said, said, I mean, we're working as hard as
Speaker 5: we can. We're on the streets trying to work as
Speaker 5: hard as we can, and this is just sad. It's
Speaker 5: sad for the city of Cincinnati. They don't believe the
Speaker 5: officers said there is an ongoing threat to the public.
Speaker 5: Officer begino, I truly believe our city is say, if
Speaker 5: we just have some people that just don't abide by
Speaker 5: the law, yeah, and absolutely, shooting a gun down a
Speaker 5: public street fifteen to twenty rounds, somebody might innocently get hurt,
Speaker 5: just like tonight. And I find that unfair to the
Speaker 5: citizens of Cincinnati, to us as police officers, that we
Speaker 5: have to respond to this. Yeah, I know, I get it.
Speaker 5: It's unfair to the city it's unfair to the police
Speaker 5: officers put themselves in a violent environment.
Speaker 3: But what in the hell who does something like that?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: Anyway, Maybe CHRISTOPHERI be on to answer that question coming
Speaker 5: up at six o'clock five one, three, seven, four nine,
Speaker 5: five hundred, eight hundred eighty two three talk pound five
Speaker 5: fifty on AT and T phones. How about me interjecting
Speaker 5: some good news into the initial segment here on the
Speaker 5: FFTY five KRC Morning Show. It's Friday, so when not
Speaker 5: to talk about something good? A two point five billion
Speaker 5: dollar investment in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Congratulations. Is this
Speaker 5: something that was spurred on by Donald Trump's tariff efforts?
Speaker 3: Maybe?
Speaker 5: iPhone All cover glass used on Apple iPhones and Apple
Speaker 5: watches are now going to be manufactured in Kentucky. According
Speaker 5: the announcement from Apple, They're partnering with Corning, which already
Speaker 5: has a glass manufacturing plant in Harrisburg, to create what
Speaker 5: the announcement says, the world's largest and most advanced smartphone
Speaker 5: glass production line. Let's see here, nine hundred people in Harrisburg.
Speaker 5: It's about thirty miles southwest of Lexington. Now Apple will
Speaker 5: be manu factoring one hundred percent of the cover glass
Speaker 5: used on iPhones and Apple eyewatching is right here in
Speaker 5: the United States for the first time ever.
Speaker 3: Well that's great, isn't it.
Speaker 5: Kentucky Projects Projects are part of Apple's broader initiative to
Speaker 5: invest one hundred billion dollars in the United States and
Speaker 5: now it's August sixth, company plans on investing total of
Speaker 5: six hundred billion dollars domestically over the next four years.
Speaker 5: Oh this as President Donald Trump Levey's tariff against countries
Speaker 5: around the globe and an effort to spur manufacturing jobs
Speaker 5: and growth in the United States. This, of course, is
Speaker 5: not the first announcement made by major manufacturers to invest
Speaker 5: billions of dollars in the United States. I guess you
Speaker 5: have to give Donald Trump credit for that. Evil Orange Man.
Speaker 5: M apple CEO Tim Cook Corning is a storied American company,
Speaker 5: and we're thrilled to work together to build the largest
Speaker 5: and most advanced production line ever created for smartphone glass.
Speaker 5: Thanks to the power of American manufacturing, any customer anywhere
Speaker 5: in the world to buys a new iPhone or Apple
Speaker 5: Watch will be holding precision glass made write here in Kentucky.
Speaker 5: We're grateful to the President and his administration for their
Speaker 5: support for American manufacturing. And we're excited for the innovation
Speaker 5: this investment will unlock. Yeah, it's a good thing. They
Speaker 5: say it's going to increase jobs. Currently, there's over four
Speaker 5: hundred employees there, so they're expecting maybe a fifty percent
Speaker 5: increase in the employees there. So yes, it is bringing jobs,
Speaker 5: it is bringing investment, and we can all proudly say, Hey,
Speaker 5: that iPhone, see that glass that's made in Kentucky. Congratulations
Speaker 5: to Kentucky, and I guess maybe congratulations to Donald Trump
Speaker 5: for achieving what he promised, which is further investment in
Speaker 5: American manufacturing. Five point fifteen Right now, fifty five KARS
Speaker 5: Talk Station. Feel free to give me a call. Love
Speaker 5: to hear from you. If you've got something to say. Beyond that,
Speaker 5: we'll move in a different direction.
Speaker 6: We get right back fifty five KRC.
Speaker 5: A couple of years ago, I was seen on a
Speaker 5: Friday and a happy one to you.
Speaker 3: Five one three fifty five hundred, eight.
Speaker 5: Hundred eighty three talk contact fifty on HT and G funds,
Speaker 5: Pause and refresh. Hey you go a little get out
Speaker 5: of that. On a Friday morning, music. Uh, you know,
Speaker 5: I was railing the other day. I was really pleased
Speaker 5: to see yet another state got a waiver from the
Speaker 5: SNAP mandates and got a sugary beverages and crap foods
Speaker 5: removed from the available benefits under the SNAP program. It's
Speaker 5: nutrition supplement of nutrition, and if something has no nutritional
Speaker 5: value in it, then it shouldn't be paid for by
Speaker 5: the American taxpayer. I mean, SNAP should be a mechanism
Speaker 5: to encourage people to eat more healthy, and I think
Speaker 5: that's a good thing. So it's a step in the
Speaker 5: right direction. It's not depriving someone of rights or anything.
Speaker 5: This is a government program subject to limitations. Like all
Speaker 5: government programs, federal dollars come with strings attached. States managed
Speaker 5: the program, so you got to ask the federal government
Speaker 5: for a waiver to prohibit people from buying crap with
Speaker 5: SNAP benefits. But the Trauma Administration is granting those waivers.
Speaker 5: So I think there's maybe thirteen or fifteen or so states.
Speaker 5: I can't remember the exact number that have now moved
Speaker 5: in that direction, which I think is a good thing.
Speaker 5: It was a study that was released just the other
Speaker 5: day talking about cancer deaths from obesity and It concluded
Speaker 5: that obesit related cancer deaths have soared in the United
Speaker 5: States over the past two decades, jumping from three point
Speaker 5: seven to three million to thirteen and a half million people.
Speaker 5: Researchers a Jersey Shore University Medical Center, among others, presented
Speaker 5: this Endrican Society National meeting in San Francisco. That's where
Speaker 5: the study was released, analyzing more than thirty three thousand
Speaker 5: deaths from obesity associated cancers. Apparently, Vermont, Mi, son of
Speaker 5: Oklahoma have the highest rates. Goring to the CDC, the
Speaker 5: more than forty percent of Americans have obesity, which raises
Speaker 5: the risk of developing certain types of cancers, a little
Speaker 5: leading cause of cancers. From what I've read previously, obesity
Speaker 5: been associated with higher risk of developing thirteen specific different
Speaker 5: types of cancer and deenocarcinoma of the esophagus, breast cancer,
Speaker 5: colon and rectum cancer, uterus, gallbladder, upper stomach, kidneys, liver, ovaries, pancreas,
Speaker 5: thyroid and in meningeoma, which is brain cancer. Finally, multiple
Speaker 5: myeloma HMMM. Study co author doctor and Mohammed Bakers that
Speaker 5: confirm obesity related cancer mortality rates have more than tripled
Speaker 5: in the United States, saying obesity is a serious public
Speaker 5: health risk and the link between obesity and cancer is
Speaker 5: a crisis that should be addressed with the same urgency
Speaker 5: as other epidemics. Alarmingly, said one of the doctors, these
Speaker 5: cancers are increase singly not only in older adults, but
Speaker 5: also in younger patients, a trend we didn't see a
Speaker 5: generation ago. So these cancers tend to be more aggressive,
Speaker 5: hard to retreat, and costly to manage. The sheer number
Speaker 5: of people at risk, combined with the rising obesity rates,
Speaker 5: means we're looking at an increased cancer burdens on individuals, families,
Speaker 5: in the healthcare system. So yet young people are getting
Speaker 5: cancer earlier at a moral at a just truly alarming rate.
Speaker 5: And of course our young people are struggling with problems
Speaker 5: with weight problems as well. Need to get on the
Speaker 5: bandwagon when you start eating healthier in this country, and again,
Speaker 5: get that crap food off of the available benefits under snap.
Speaker 5: Let's see what Mark's got this morning. Mark, thanks for
Speaker 5: calling the Morning Show and happy Friday to you.
Speaker 7: Yeah, thank you, Brian, good morning. I'm not sure if
Speaker 7: you saw it or not, but I watched the interview
Speaker 7: last night that Laura Ingram did with Holly the girl
Speaker 7: had gotten beat down in Cincinnati there. Yeah, and some
Speaker 7: of the details that she disclosed on that interview are
Speaker 7: pretty damn disturbing from the response of the police and
Speaker 7: there the way that she described and and that they
Speaker 7: just leaned up against their cars and and again, I
Speaker 7: I do don't envy the police and in the major cities,
Speaker 7: I the jobs that they do is unreal and incredible.
Speaker 7: That they go out and they put their lives at
Speaker 7: risk every night or every day, you know, so don't
Speaker 7: I'm not saying this from the standpoint of I believe me.
Speaker 7: I'm a huge supporter of the of the police. But
Speaker 7: her her account of that, and I hope that you
Speaker 7: can have her on at some point, but her account
Speaker 7: of that the police chiefs should lose her job at
Speaker 7: a very very minimum.
Speaker 8: She's worthless.
Speaker 7: She's she's your typical DEI hire.
Speaker 8: And the reason she.
Speaker 7: Was so ticked off in that that press conference that
Speaker 7: she had had talking about the problem with people posting videos,
Speaker 7: the reason she was so ticked off is because they
Speaker 7: didn't want it expose And yeah, there's a line there
Speaker 7: where you say, you know, wiring filming. You should have
Speaker 7: been helping. But at the same time, it's kind of
Speaker 7: a double edged sword. You know, had those videos not
Speaker 7: gone out, could this have been covered up? But you know,
Speaker 7: Holly last night on the interview with Laura Ingram stated
Speaker 7: that when the police arrived, they didn't even take her name,
Speaker 7: They didn't take a statement that they there was people
Speaker 7: there that had been beaten that were basically begging the
Speaker 7: police to take their information, and the police didn't call
Speaker 7: for an ambulance. She had to take an uber away
Speaker 7: from there. They never did get her name. I would
Speaker 7: love to know what the what the reason was that
Speaker 7: officers if in fact, I mean that was her account,
Speaker 7: first hand account, so I have to take her for
Speaker 7: a word on it.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 7: Now, were they two police offers that were standing in
Speaker 7: the middle of one hundred people that were highly.
Speaker 1: Whatever you want to call it ad and they.
Speaker 7: Were agitated, Yeah, let's say agitated. But you know, you
Speaker 7: talked about the breakdown of society, a societal breakdown. No,
Speaker 7: it's not really a societal breakdown. You do have a breakdown,
Speaker 7: but it's in a certain segment of the society. It's
Speaker 7: a certain race of people that for whatever reason. And
Speaker 7: I'm not saying every single person. I'm not going to
Speaker 7: paint with that broad a brush, but you've mentioned that before.
Speaker 7: You see it in the driving behaviors on the interstates
Speaker 7: and on the roads. I can't tell you how many
Speaker 7: times I will be running seventy five mile an hour
Speaker 7: on two seventy five and two cars will go past
Speaker 7: me at one hundred and ten mile an hour. And
Speaker 7: there's no used to if you went sixty mile an
Speaker 7: hour or in anywhere around Cincinnati, you took a chance
Speaker 7: on getting pulled over, and believe me, that was kind
Speaker 7: of an aggravation too. But now it's gone the complete
Speaker 7: opposite to where just simple rules on the interstates that
Speaker 7: there's no regards for red lights, there's no I mean,
Speaker 7: the driving behavior is absolutely horrible. And the thing is
Speaker 7: is that this societal breakdown though it's we don't see
Speaker 7: large groups of other people from you know, different communities
Speaker 7: going out and doing these things. And it's again it's
Speaker 7: the elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about,
Speaker 7: you know. And it's and if it was if it
Speaker 7: was white guys that are running down through downtown fire
Speaker 7: and off fifteen shots and just just indiscriminately shooting whoever
Speaker 7: happens to get in the way of a bullet. I
Speaker 7: would I would call it out the exact same way.
Speaker 7: So you know, I just I encourage you that if
Speaker 7: you can get Holly on. I just I was so
Speaker 7: ticked off after hearing her account of that last night
Speaker 7: and in the in the spirit of tom if people
Speaker 7: want things to change in this sety don't vote Democrats.
Speaker 3: It's catching on. Appreciate it.
Speaker 5: Mark, Yeah, I putting aside the broad brush comments about
Speaker 5: race you don't necessarily agree with. But in so far
Speaker 5: as the traffic laws are concerned, yeah, there is no
Speaker 5: question in my mind the norm anymore in the high
Speaker 5: speed lane is eighty The default speed is eighty miles
Speaker 5: an hour. Not that I'm clamoring for a whole lot
Speaker 5: more police on the highways, just saying I don't know.
Speaker 5: Five twenty eight Do I have care City Talk station

Speaker 8: Yes, everybody needs to say it loud and proud.
Speaker 4: Tell.
Speaker 3: Yeah, T shirts.
Speaker 8: Yoh. There's a lot of complicated issues and different things
Speaker 8: that need to be done. But really people, that is yes,
Speaker 8: that that will solve a whole lot of problems.
Speaker 5: I believe we should sell T shirts, print T shirts up.
Speaker 5: Quote don't quote democrat close quote Tom.
Speaker 8: Right, yeah, full stop, right, full time on the weather note.
Speaker 8: I was talking to a guy yesterday at work, and
Speaker 8: I hadn't seen him in quite some time, and and uh,
Speaker 8: you know, when guys will see each other I haven't
Speaker 8: seen each other, We'll say, hey, what job was that? Yeah,
Speaker 8: oh yeah, it was this going on? And he goes, yeah,
Speaker 8: I remember there was. It was snowing, and I just
Speaker 8: stopped for a minute. I froze. God, you imagine how
Speaker 8: good that would feel right now, A little bit of
Speaker 8: cold weather, a little bit of a little bit of frost,
Speaker 8: that would feel so good.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Well, a moment's time, we'll all be asking, well, I'll
Speaker 5: be complaining about the frozen tundra in like five minutes time.
Speaker 8: Not me, not me, Jarry Jeff Walker said the same
Speaker 8: thing once. Im he's feeling in for you, not me.
Speaker 8: I will never be clamoring for this kind of weather. Never.
Speaker 8: I'm not asking for six eight issues of snow. But
Speaker 8: a little dusting right now sounds real good.
Speaker 3: I will concede that.
Speaker 8: Hey, you know, the whole issue of race seeps coming up,
Speaker 8: and people, you know, they get afraid of talking about it.
Speaker 8: Your last caller, he didn't seem to be too afraid
Speaker 8: of it. And and uh, you know there's there's pointing
Speaker 8: out observations, you know, without saying just if I see
Speaker 8: you and you're a particular race, I know you're going
Speaker 8: to do this that that's that's clearly racism. You don't
Speaker 8: know the person. But when you see a group of
Speaker 8: people actually doing something and they're all pretty much the
Speaker 8: same race, and you make that observation, we can't be
Speaker 8: afraid to do that. And I'm not saying that all
Speaker 8: of any race of not all. What's what what's the
Speaker 8: stereotypical thing about what Asians? They're all smart geniuses? Well
Speaker 8: no they're not, but you know there's a good chance
Speaker 8: that if you run into one, you know they're gonna
Speaker 8: be pretty smart, because well you know, that's the culture,
Speaker 8: and they teach the kids to work hard in school
Speaker 8: and all that. So to to be racist, but is
Speaker 8: one thing to point out things that that are obvious.
Speaker 8: You're making an observation about something. We can't be afraid
Speaker 8: to do that. And if we're so concerned about being
Speaker 8: labeled as racist or being labeled as as bad because
Speaker 8: of more particular race, then my dad used to always say,
Speaker 8: straighten up and fly right. To do what you're supposed
Speaker 8: to do, behave the way you're supposed to behave, and
Speaker 8: you won't have to worry about it. You know, you
Speaker 8: don't have to worry about being called this out of
Speaker 8: the other And even if you are, you can you
Speaker 8: can look yourself in the mirror. God, they're not they're
Speaker 8: not saying what they're not talking about me. They're they're
Speaker 8: just bored and crap out. You know, don't be afraid
Speaker 8: to do the right thing and say the right thing,
Speaker 8: and and you know, don't worry about what everybody else
Speaker 8: is saying about you. And please don't vote Democrat. Have
Speaker 8: a great day, Bright sided Tom. Appreciate the at least
Speaker 8: the closing message. Five on three, seven, four nine, fifty
Speaker 8: two to three talk. It's like a million directions I
Speaker 8: can go. Fortunately, though I'm out of time in this
Speaker 8: segment five thirty five right now fifty five car see
Speaker 8: talk station that's saved by the clock. Foreign exchange, I'll
Speaker 8: save you money. It's all about saving money a foreign
Speaker 8: exchange because you get your car fixed. You're a traditionally
Speaker 8: imported car, Asian, European and Tesla's se certified Master technicians
Speaker 8: be working on your car. You get a full warranty
Speaker 8: on both parts and service. When you leave foreign Exchange,
Speaker 8: your car will be fixed. It's under warranty and you
Speaker 8: won't pay as much, which is the point of foreign
Speaker 8: exchange existence. You get great mechanical work, outstanding customer service.
Speaker 8: You need a loaner. They got a loaner. That's all
Speaker 8: well and good, but the amount of money you can
Speaker 8: save is pretty substantial. And with automobile repairs going through
Speaker 8: the roof and they are, it's an opportunity for you
Speaker 8: to get great work done in your car. It will
Speaker 8: be to your satisfact and you won't pay nearly as
Speaker 8: much as the dealer. So experience the foreign exchange difference.
Speaker 8: Westchester is the one I always recommend. It's the Tylersville Road.
Speaker 8: Eggsit off of I seventy five head east, just a

Speaker 5: you hit the weather or the traffic button and nothing
Speaker 5: is there. It's a little bass for Joe, make him
Speaker 5: feel better. It's five forty on a Friday. Before I
Speaker 5: get to the stack of stupid, which yes includes naked guys,
Speaker 5: Let's see what Corey's got this morning. Corey, thanks for
Speaker 5: calling on Happy Friday. To you, sir, Happy Friday.
Speaker 10: Speaking of race and violence, FBI statistics obviously say, you know,
Speaker 10: thirteen percent of the population is black.
Speaker 7: Of that thirteen.
Speaker 10: Percent, about seventy percent female, six percent male. Of that
Speaker 10: six percent, three percent is black mails between steen and
Speaker 10: thirty five, and that's sixteen to thirty five demographic represent
Speaker 10: fifty four percent of every murder that takes place in
Speaker 10: the United States and eighty four percent of every single
Speaker 10: aggravated assault in the United States. So Grace don't have
Speaker 10: anything to do with it. Please explain those.
Speaker 5: Statistics all why people digest that. I've seen those statistics before,
Speaker 5: and I don't think you're skewing them. What kind of
Speaker 5: conclusion do we draw now? You know, folks out in
Speaker 5: the civil rights community might argue that, well, that's because
Speaker 5: as we live in a racist society, and we don't
Speaker 5: have any opportunity, and lack of opportunity means people are desperate,
Speaker 5: and desperate people go out and do desperate things. That's
Speaker 5: one retort to the statistics, or at least and endeavor
Speaker 5: to explain these statistics away. I don't know, so I
Speaker 5: may blame the lack of nuclear family, which is a
Speaker 5: profound problem within the black community. You know, we're just
Speaker 5: left to ponder these things. Sociologists have been doing it
Speaker 5: for years and years. Just wish it didn't exist as
Speaker 5: a problem or a phenomenon. Anyhow, Over to the stack
Speaker 5: is stupid. We got a man and marry we worrying nothing
Speaker 5: but a balaklava and plastic clogs, good luck, and carrying
Speaker 5: a sex toy on a stick.
Speaker 3: Has been startling.
Speaker 5: There's no flag for clearly, so let's see the flag
Speaker 5: would be balaklava, plastic clogs, and a sex toy on
Speaker 5: a stick anyway, startling tourists and wandering around historic castle
Speaker 5: in Slovakia. Article from the New York Post unidentified intruder
Speaker 5: posts for a picture carrying his sex toy on a
Speaker 5: stick near a castle there, which is described as a
Speaker 5: popular hiking destination. Reportedly apologized to the two female hikers
Speaker 5: who spotted him, claiming that he thought no visitors would
Speaker 5: be around on Monday, and then let them take his picture.
Speaker 5: One of the tourists Quota is saying he had a
Speaker 5: balaklava a stick and i'll use the word marital aid
Speaker 5: stuck to the stick. We were scared of him, but
Speaker 5: he told us he was sorry and that he didn't
Speaker 5: want us scare us. So he asked us for directions
Speaker 5: because he thought that since it was Monday, he wouldn't
Speaker 5: meet anyone. Apparently, this exhibition has turned and seemed to
Speaker 5: be leaving before he suddenly began following the women. One
Speaker 5: of the tourists said, when I turned around, he turned
Speaker 5: and started following us. I was terribly scared. I guess
Speaker 5: no one would have believed that we could meet something
Speaker 5: like that in the forest. But he allowed us to
Speaker 5: take a picture of him without any problems. It was
Speaker 5: lucky that there were two of us. I can't imagine
Speaker 5: what I would have done if I'd been alone. He
Speaker 5: said this was relaxation for him, that he often walks
Speaker 5: naked in the woods like This incident is being investigated
Speaker 5: by the police. Incident reported. Reportedly, the third encounter with
Speaker 5: that same visitor with the naked guy behavior left visitors disturbed.
Speaker 5: The man hasn't been seen engaging in any sexual behavior
Speaker 5: or confronting any visitors aggressively. Oh well, that makes me
Speaker 5: feel a lot better. We go to Cobb, Wisconsin and
Speaker 5: a Walmart. Ronald Gordon, twenty five years old, residents unknown,

Speaker 11: This is fifty five k an iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 6: We all remember that one teacher who made five point
Speaker 6: fifty about Kreshiety Talk station.
Speaker 5: The naked guy wearing only a balaklava clogs and carrying
Speaker 5: a stick with a marital aid stuck on top of it.
Speaker 3: And Joe said there was no flag for this. He
Speaker 3: created one.
Speaker 5: Joe Chrecker is all about artificial intelligence, so he turned
Speaker 5: a he requested a flag for that, and I look
Speaker 5: up my Facebook instant message and there it is, Oh,
Speaker 5: this stack is stupid. A man played guilty to murdering
Speaker 5: his seventy three year old lover, Why are you doing that?
Speaker 5: Burying him in a bathtub full of concrete, and then
Speaker 5: treating the victims items as his own that until he
Speaker 5: was caught. According to the rest Warrenant, twenty six year
Speaker 5: old twenty six year old Juan Baron confessed the police
Speaker 5: that he had in fact murdered his seventy three year
Speaker 5: old lover a guy named Gary Ruby after the victim
Speaker 5: revealed that he had tested positive for HIV. What Baron
Speaker 5: allegedly strangled Ruby with a belt, dragged him into the bathtub.
Speaker 5: In the bathroom, slit his wrist in an effort to
Speaker 5: disguise his act as a suicide. Baron reportedly told police
Speaker 5: that after he found bags of concrete in the garage,
Speaker 5: he decided to conceal Ruby's body in the bathtub by
Speaker 5: pouring cement over him and disguising the smell with coffee grounds.
Speaker 5: Following the murder, Baron apparently continued to live in the
Speaker 5: one point two million dollar home, drove around the victims
Speaker 5: outie A six told police he considered fraudulently acquiring the
Speaker 5: home with forged documents. After he killed Ruby, he fled
Speaker 5: Hawaii with a friend after learning police were after him.
Speaker 5: The twenty six year old was found in California hiding
Speaker 5: in a crawl space on a bus that was headed
Speaker 5: to Mexico.
Speaker 3: As this tradition, he reached a.
Speaker 5: Plea agreement that involved pleading guilty Ruby's murdering was sentenced
Speaker 5: to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Speaker 3: Story. This is an awful.
Speaker 5: One former sixth grade teacher here at Mansfield, Ohio, pleaded
Speaker 5: guilty to sexually abusing a student over the course of
Speaker 5: eighteen months, beginning when this child young girl was only
Speaker 5: fourteen years old. Court a local outlet, thirty nine year
Speaker 5: old Stephanie Kellenberger placed on lee from her job as
Speaker 5: a sixth grade teacher at Shelby Middle School after the
Speaker 5: school received serious allegations regarding her conduct. She was charged
Speaker 5: with seventeen counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor
Speaker 5: for four counts of sexual battery. Assistant prosecutor accused her
Speaker 5: of grooming the victim at just thirteen years old and
Speaker 5: then sexually assaulting her for the first time at age fourteen,
Speaker 5: continuing to assault the victim until she was sixteen years old.
Speaker 5: They said she didn't use any force. Now, this is
Speaker 5: kind of a twist here. Although the victim allegedly recommended
Speaker 5: Kellenberger only spend three years in prison, just wasn't having
Speaker 5: anything of that. Anything to do with that determine the
Speaker 5: sentence was too light. Sentenced her to fifteen years in
Speaker 5: the lock up after she pleaded guilty to all twenty
Speaker 5: one charges. I guess does it work that way in
Speaker 5: a female prison, Joe, you're going to assume fair enough. Well,
Speaker 5: maybe sharing the cell with her. Alabama teacher arrested in
Speaker 5: charge with engaging in sexual relationship with the minor a
Speaker 5: court of the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office Sarah Higgins Logan,
Speaker 5: thirty five, former teacher at North River Christian Academy facing
Speaker 5: one kind of school employee engaged in a sexual act.
Speaker 5: Investigation started with parents of the underage female student report
Speaker 5: of the alleged relationship to the authorities. Earlier in the
Speaker 5: middle of July. Case transferred to the Violent Crimes Unit
Speaker 5: Sexual Assault section. Warrant was issued. North of A Christian
Speaker 5: Academy confirmed the arrest of what they described as a
Speaker 5: former employee of a statement school described the situation as
Speaker 5: heart rendering for all involved. Logan no longer employed there,
Speaker 5: of course, having been released earlier in the week for
Speaker 5: reasons unrelated to the arrest. That's what they said, anyway,
Speaker 5: age and identity, a student not yet released, And finally
Speaker 5: rounding it out, high school music teacher in Canada charge
Speaker 5: with multiple sex crimes against one of her male students.
Speaker 5: She actually had completed a sexual abuse prevention program before
Speaker 5: she engaged in sexual conduct with her male student, Jennifer
Speaker 5: Elise Lawrence. Thirty one charge with sexual assault, sexual exploitation,
Speaker 5: child luring and making sexually explicit materials available to a
Speaker 5: person under the age of eighteen while teaching at the
Speaker 5: Maple Ridge Secondary School in Ontario. Took place between February
Speaker 5: and April this year. Corn to the court documents, qualified
Speaker 5: as a teacher in January twenty one and successfully completed
Speaker 5: a sexual abuse prevention program while working in the profession.
Speaker 5: I guess it didn't sit round them all up.

Speaker 5: Pustled by this instant message from Richard after finishing a
Speaker 5: show for a week's worth of shows, do you ever
Speaker 5: feel the need to go to a confessional? Not quite
Speaker 5: sure where you're coming from, Richard, but I guess the

Speaker 5: have been diagnosed with cancer at least engage in some
Speaker 5: fun activity that's coming up in the meantime. Welcome back
Speaker 5: to the fifty five krsee morning show man who also
Speaker 5: has opinions and thoughts about what's going on in the city.
Speaker 5: Welcome back, Christopher Smithman, former Vice mayor of the City
Speaker 5: of Cincinnati. You got your thoughts and comments. We had
Speaker 5: an innocent bystander shot in the back in downtown Cincinnati,
Speaker 5: a victim of a random violence. Fifteen to twenty gunshots
Speaker 5: randomly fired on Green Street where this woman died after
Speaker 5: being shot in the back. Christopher, Welcome back. She was
Speaker 5: a mother of five children, a mother of five.
Speaker 4: First, let me say that on Monday at the town
Speaker 4: hall meeting, there was an African American woman. Her her
Speaker 4: she's an attorney. I think her last name was Riley.
Speaker 4: And she got up at the town hall meeting Brian
Speaker 4: and she said, I live in OTR. I'm two minutes
Speaker 4: away for my law firm, and I'm scared to walk outside.
Speaker 4: I'm scared to go to the grocery store. And she said,
Speaker 4: I'm thinking about leaving OTR because of the level of
Speaker 4: islands and I'm thinking about moving to the west side
Speaker 4: of town.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Monday, Yeah, and think about what happened on Thursday. Where
Speaker 4: she's she sees who lives down there. An African American
Speaker 4: woman who's trying to cross the streets and as you indicated,
Speaker 4: fifteen shots rig out and most likely she turned to
Speaker 4: run and was shot in the back. A mother of five.
Speaker 4: And then to have you know, city hall say hey,
Speaker 4: you know you're still safe. You know, after every one
Speaker 4: of these shootings, it seems like the people at city
Speaker 4: Hall have the same kind of communication. Everybody is safe.
Speaker 4: You know, this maybe wasn't targeted. I don't know. I
Speaker 4: don't know what they're talking about. But you and I
Speaker 4: have been talking about the accelerated violence that we've been
Speaker 4: witnessing from the beginning of the summer, and I mean
Speaker 4: it seemed like every every week now you have and
Speaker 4: this is the second time at least one on Main
Speaker 4: Street there was just this random shooting of people just
Speaker 4: you know, the persons just braying bullets. This is what
Speaker 4: terrifies me. And we know, you and I know that
Speaker 4: the number one solution right now are cops on the
Speaker 4: street in uniform a sense of strength in order to
Speaker 4: quill the accelerated violence. But because the mayor is unwilling
Speaker 4: to call in the troops, and I mean this it's
Speaker 4: not about not having them, it's about putting a plan together,
Speaker 4: asking them to change their shifts, making sure they feel
Speaker 4: confident that if they run into a problem. The problem
Speaker 4: that I'm talking about is they have to pull their
Speaker 4: weapon and take someone's life. That you're not going to
Speaker 4: have a prosecutor pulling together a grand jury saying I'm
Speaker 4: going to take your entire livelihood away because you've got
Speaker 4: to youth down there with a weapon pointing at me,
Speaker 4: on the run, stealing or robbing somebody, and they take
Speaker 4: their life. And it's the combination of a white officer
Speaker 4: and a young African American youth. We know that that's
Speaker 4: the combination that brings in all of the activists and
Speaker 4: then say something happened here that was wrong. They need
Speaker 4: to know that if they do proactive policing, Brion Thomas,
Speaker 4: that the mayor and the city city council and the
Speaker 4: city manager will have their back, and they just don't
Speaker 4: have that confident.
Speaker 5: Well, and then you have the apparently the iris rallies
Speaker 5: of the world out there are calling out literally every
Speaker 5: single thing police do. I mean they look at a
Speaker 5: scancer sideways, then you're going to be called in and
Speaker 5: have someone you know, basically micromanaged. I mean, look through
Speaker 5: every single illustration and instance in any videos or whatever
Speaker 5: to try to find something that the officer did that
Speaker 5: what they believed to be wrong. I mean, if you're
Speaker 5: going to have your every movement analyzed by someone after
Speaker 5: the fact with twenty twenty hindsight, I can't imagine that's really,
Speaker 5: you know, resulting in more law enforcement, result in less
Speaker 5: law enforcement. They don't want to get engaged.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I you know, Irish Rowley is a consultant. This
Speaker 4: is what you know what I've been told making six
Speaker 4: figures for the for the city of Sciati, working for
Speaker 4: the mayor's office or and or the city manager's office.
Speaker 4: And I've seen one video where she's intervening between an
Speaker 4: officer having a conversation with the with the citation or
Speaker 4: the recitation of an African American man on a bicycle,
Speaker 4: and I thought that the interaction was completely inappropriate, completely inappropriate.
Speaker 4: And I don't know in what world that person, meaning
Speaker 4: the Irish Roly would not be detained by the officer
Speaker 4: You're injecting yourself as I'm talking to a citizen, And
Speaker 4: why the mayor, the police chief, the city manager would
Speaker 4: not call her on the confet to never engage in
Speaker 4: that kind of behavior. I don't. I don't. I don't
Speaker 4: understand it at all. I can't defend it as a
Speaker 4: fear of law and public safety. There is no way
Speaker 4: something like that.
Speaker 5: Would be happening, interfering with a police officer performing his duties.
Speaker 3: I think that's you could get cited for that.
Speaker 4: I absolutely believe you can. There's no way that you
Speaker 4: just inject yourself when an officer is in the middle
Speaker 4: of their communication with assistant. Now you can sit back,
Speaker 4: you can observe, you can take your phone out, you
Speaker 4: can record, but that's not what's on the video. I
Speaker 4: mean the you know, the Iris BROWLEI. I think at
Speaker 4: one point he said, I'm going to continue to walk
Speaker 4: with you. I think she indicated that she doesn't trust them.
Speaker 4: Why would you say those things? My point is that
Speaker 4: coming from city hall, I don't think the public in
Speaker 4: our fifty two neighborhoods north Side, I say, you know,
Speaker 4: whether you're talking about Westwood, where you're talking about Hyde Park,
Speaker 4: Amount Lookout, I don't think they understand that coming from
Speaker 4: city hall is this anti cop. I don't trust you,
Speaker 4: or I want to defundge you, or I want to
Speaker 4: reimagine you it's not about the community policing. The police
Speaker 4: department doesn't mind that tone. We've already accepted the collaborative agreement.
Speaker 4: We've already accepted community based policing. That's not the problem.
Speaker 4: The problem now is the pendulum has swung so far
Speaker 4: that the police feel like they can't do their job.
Speaker 4: And that's one of the reasons we're seeing this increase
Speaker 4: in crime. Elections have consequences, Meaning four years ago we
Speaker 4: elected this mayor. I know I was one of those
Speaker 4: who warned we continue to for whatever reason, we can't
Speaker 4: elect a diverse group of people on city council. I
Speaker 4: don't know what it is that citizens and Cincinnati seem
Speaker 4: to not understand that you want diversity, like a Live
Speaker 4: Keeping on council or an Amy Murray on council. You
Speaker 4: want this diversity because what that does is in your
Speaker 4: local government you're getting the best public policies. You know,
Speaker 4: that's where politics really you can take it out. You know,
Speaker 4: you want a council that's about getting your trash picked up,
Speaker 4: making sure you have a good law enforcement firefighters in place,
Speaker 4: making sure that if you have a main break, that
Speaker 4: you have a great water works division. Even though they're
Speaker 4: they're you know, they are reporting to the county, but
Speaker 4: they still have part of their division working for the
Speaker 4: city of Cincinnati. You get what I'm saying, You're talking
Speaker 4: about the runnings of a city an executive. We have
Speaker 4: a mayor who's more involved in cutting ribbons and and
Speaker 4: really just kind of being you know, fashionable, not this executive.
Speaker 4: And we're now paying that price. And we have nine
Speaker 4: members of council right for I cannot stress the President
Speaker 4: pro tim saying that those citizens who were attacked a
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago were begging for it. It's so
Speaker 4: grotesque and horrific that I cannot go without mentioning it,
Speaker 4: because I don't understand Brian, how she's still working, how
Speaker 4: she still has a job. He didn't show up to
Speaker 4: law in Public Safety this past week. I don't get it,
Speaker 4: and I don't understand why she's not being called out
Speaker 4: by her old colleagues.
Speaker 5: Could I couldn't agree more with you on that one.
Speaker 5: That was a horrific statement. I mean, most notably when
Speaker 5: you look at the segment of the video that when
Speaker 5: you see Holly getting punched in the face, that she
Speaker 5: could stick with us, that they deserved it. It wasn't
Speaker 5: just the guy that was involved in the altercation that
Speaker 5: seemed to like start the whole thing. She included Holly
Speaker 5: in her statement and saying that Holly also deserved what
Speaker 5: she got, which is just the most inexcusable component of
Speaker 5: what she said. Let's PAUSEI bring Christopher back with more thoughts.
Speaker 5: Six twenty one, the fifty five per City Talk station.
Speaker 5: Hope everython's looking forward to a wonderful weekend. Have some plans,
Speaker 5: David hanging out with my dad? Probably? Maybe, I don't know,
Speaker 5: Christopher Smitheman's on the phone, Christopher, I suppose you know,
Speaker 5: having police in the right locations at the right time
Speaker 5: is an important thing. Allocation of scarce police resources is critical.
Speaker 5: But they literally can't be at all places at all times,
Speaker 5: and it seems like a sort of a failure in
Speaker 5: the system when you have this like mob attack, beat
Speaker 5: down three o'clock in the morning, limited police officers. You know,
Speaker 5: you can look back, with hindsight being twenty twenty and say, look,
Speaker 5: there are three giant events going on in downtown. You
Speaker 5: know all those events were over by eleven o'clock. That's
Speaker 5: when the music stops, the bars are up until two.
Speaker 5: Of course, people leave the bars right when the bars closed,
Speaker 5: so you're looking at three o'clock in the morning, and
Speaker 5: it's easy to second guess the police department. How come
Speaker 5: you didn't have more officers allocated that area? But when
Speaker 5: you look at this one who got shot in the back,
Speaker 5: she's north of Liberty on Green Street. You know, how
Speaker 5: come there weren't police officers patrolling in that neighborhood. We
Speaker 5: all might ask. They can't be everywhere at all times,
Speaker 5: and police being around at all times if it was
Speaker 5: even possible, don't address the problem of where this violence
Speaker 5: came from. You grew up in the city, didn't you,
Speaker 5: Christopher I did. How is it that you were able
Speaker 5: to stay, you know, a straight and narrow path and
Speaker 5: didn't engage in this. I guess you maybe knew some
Speaker 5: people who might have been, you know, grew up with
Speaker 5: some people your age that might have been inclined to
Speaker 5: engage in this type of horrific activity.
Speaker 3: I just don't understand where it comes from. Man.
Speaker 4: And we also had police officers. Dak could walk up
Speaker 4: and ask me what my name was, and there was
Speaker 4: an expectation that I would provide it. Period and if
Speaker 4: I saw it all, officer, there was an expectation from home,
Speaker 4: which is what you're indicating that I would be respectful
Speaker 4: and respond to the officers. But let me make this
Speaker 4: point clear. You know, city Hall is unwilling to ask
Speaker 4: for our shriffs for their support. So just think about that.
Speaker 4: So Sheriff McGuffey has not been involved in this dialogue.
Speaker 4: And there's a reason why. It's not the sheriff. It's
Speaker 4: that city Hall doesn't want the sheriffs because they don't
Speaker 4: believe the sheriffs are under the collaborative agreement.
Speaker 3: Oh is that it?
Speaker 4: I want you to hear that statement. And so the
Speaker 4: Mayorage listening to his consultant irish ROLEI who's telling him, Hey,
Speaker 4: the sheriffs aren't under the collaborative agreement, so we're not
Speaker 4: going to bring him in and help us patrol the
Speaker 4: city of Cincinnati. If I were Chair of Law and
Speaker 4: Public Safety and I was the mayor, I would have
Speaker 4: already brought sheriffs into help. So this is again, this
Speaker 4: is a cultural conflict of defund the police. Reimagine the police.
Speaker 4: We don't know what kind of training the sheriffs have.
Speaker 4: Instead of saying I need help. We've got people being murdered.
Speaker 4: The thirty four year old woman who got shot in
Speaker 4: the back wouldn't have cared if there was a sheriff
Speaker 4: on the corner deturring that shooting. But because city hall
Speaker 4: won't ask for help, Brian Thomas, we keep running into
Speaker 4: this problem. That's why I said, why haven't they really
Speaker 4: reached out. I'm talking earlier in the summer with the
Speaker 4: state of Ohio and we're in trouble. But before you
Speaker 4: get to the state of Ohio, you have our Hamilton
Speaker 4: County sheriffs. And the reason they won't is because of
Speaker 4: those things that I just said. Now, look Andre Ewing
Speaker 4: coming in coming up. Great police officer, know him well,
Speaker 4: African American, really into his health, just a great guy,
Speaker 4: and he's been very outspoken and I want to affirm
Speaker 4: him and thank him for his voice because the African
Speaker 4: American community is not monolithic. And but when Andre is talking,
Speaker 4: it's amazing that those same people that we're talking about,
Speaker 4: they're attacking him, and he deserves our support. I appreciate
Speaker 4: what he's saying and I think he is right. And
Speaker 4: of course I can't say enough about Congressman brad Winstrop
Speaker 4: and I'll be listening to the rest of your show.
Speaker 4: These are great leaders in our community with all kinds
Speaker 4: of good ideas and perspectives. City Hall needs to hear them.
Speaker 4: But I want you, I want to emphasize that point
Speaker 4: it I can't say it enough. Ask yourself, why haven't
Speaker 4: the share been asked to come in and help police
Speaker 4: Downtair Well.
Speaker 5: It can't be a budget issue because after the violence
Speaker 5: on the twenty six they quickly allocated two million dollars
Speaker 5: right away to hire additional lateral hires for the insane
Speaker 5: police department, So they clearly had some money laying around
Speaker 5: to address the post tragedy or to deal with the
Speaker 5: tragedy at least on some lever with the response after
Speaker 5: it already happened. Couldn't this have been done sooner?
Speaker 8: Maybe?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Appreciate your comments Christopher always you look forward to Monday
Speaker 5: Man with your Smith event every Monday.
Speaker 4: So much for having me on. And my condolences to
Speaker 4: the mother of five who lost her life in our
Speaker 4: streets in downtown and I can't say enough of how
Speaker 4: that broke my heart and I pray that our mayor.
Speaker 5: Is reaching out to the victim's family. Thank you for
Speaker 5: a change. Thank you, Christopher. Look forward to Monday at
Speaker 5: seven to twenty with another conversation. Yes, and Brad Winster,
Speaker 5: we'll be on at seven five here in the morning
Speaker 5: show Andrea Ewing, Christopher mentioned joining the program. Jenedi weather

Speaker 5: for the low, and a real hot one on Sunday
Speaker 5: ninety one degrees. Yes it'll be sunny, Yes it'll be hot,
Speaker 5: Yes it'll be humid, and yes we'll have some afternoon
Speaker 5: possible rain sixty nine. Right now, let's get a traffic
Speaker 5: update from the UCL Traffic Center.
Speaker 13: Nearly sixty percent of Americans waiting on an organ transplant
Speaker 13: from multicultural communities get the Gift of life, become an
Speaker 13: organ donor, or explore living donation at u see health
Speaker 13: dot com s Life Transplant Step Bend seventy five. There's
Speaker 13: a new accident near Galbreth coming out of the Lachland split.
Speaker 2: They're on the right shoulder.
Speaker 13: So so far I'm not seeing a huge delay out
Speaker 13: of Lachland westbound two seventy five. They cleared the accident
Speaker 13: near seventy one Chucking Ramm fifty five k R See
Speaker 13: the talk station.
Speaker 5: Sex thirty one fifty five KRCD talk station. Always look
Speaker 5: forward to this time of the week. It is that
Speaker 5: time Tech Friday with Dave Hadebruck You by intrust it.
Speaker 5: The best in the business is the business career. When
Speaker 5: it comes to your business, computer needs interest it dot
Speaker 5: com is where you find Dave and the team and
Speaker 5: you should Dave. Welcome back to the program, my friend.
Speaker 9: Hey Brian, always good to be here.
Speaker 3: Sex.
Speaker 5: Some pretty good topics this morning, drug cartels, hacking into
Speaker 5: security cameras.
Speaker 3: What's this one all about?
Speaker 9: Yeah? I thought this was fascinating and terrifying at the
Speaker 9: same time, and also really speaks to the increasing state
Speaker 9: of constant surveillance that were under things to the Internet
Speaker 9: of things. And we've got another Internet of things topic
Speaker 9: come up. So people, you know, always wonder why I
Speaker 9: do a lot of public speaking, Brian, And you know,
Speaker 9: depending on the specific topic, whenever I can, I try
Speaker 9: to point out all the privacy and security issues with
Speaker 9: these so called smart devices aka the Internet of things. Right,
Speaker 9: and you and I have been talking about this for
Speaker 9: a long time. Have to understand the nature of these devices.
Speaker 9: First off, they're not designed for your privacy and your security.
Speaker 9: They're designed for ease of use, speed to market, and
Speaker 9: market share. If these things are too difficult to use,
Speaker 9: and the more security you build into them, the more
Speaker 9: difficult they become to use, people won't use them. And
Speaker 9: then secondarily, you know, most of these companies are selling
Speaker 9: these things at not much margin because they care less
Speaker 9: about the sale of the product to you than they
Speaker 9: do about collecting your data. So in this particular case,
Speaker 9: we've seen. So that's my general angst with the IoT.
Speaker 9: People are buying these devices, whether they're cameras, you know, thermostats, doorbells,
Speaker 9: washing machines, coffee machines, whatever. They don't know how to
Speaker 9: set them up correctly. They don't know how to make
Speaker 9: sure they're still getting software updates from the vendor, and
Speaker 9: most aren't after more than two years. They don't understand
Speaker 9: what data they're collecting, who that's shared with, whether it's
Speaker 9: listening to you, all that stuff. Right, so's that's my
Speaker 9: general general concern. And as more and more of this
Speaker 9: stuff goes up, and more and more of it is
Speaker 9: not configured correctly, more and more of it is insecure,
Speaker 9: more and more of it has not just cameras but microphones,
Speaker 9: where you're potentially under surveillance around the clock with these things, right,
Speaker 9: it just creates all kinds of potential issues for you.
Speaker 9: And then we've seen at least two examples. Now. In
Speaker 9: this case, the Cineloa cartel hired a hacker was able
Speaker 9: to use FBI informant or I guess agent records rather
Speaker 9: their agent rather than informant, and figure out what informants
Speaker 9: that agent was talking to, you know, figure out where
Speaker 9: these people are using things like cameras and so forth,
Speaker 9: that they hacked Internet of Things devices, and then you
Speaker 9: know they got a visit. You know, hey, I'm going
Speaker 9: to break your knee apps if you talk to this
Speaker 9: person again. In some cases people were killed, and so this, yeah,
Speaker 9: this is a recent example of how these devices can
Speaker 9: be used in ways you would not necessarily ever consider.
Speaker 9: And then you know, there was an example earlier in
Speaker 9: the it's probably still going on in the Russia Ukraine War,
Speaker 9: where Russia was apparently hacking web cameras in Ukraine and
Speaker 9: using them to look for targets. So think about the
Speaker 9: surveillance capability, Brian. Whether it's a ring camera on your
Speaker 9: house that could potentially be hacked, and then imagine all
Speaker 9: those cameras in your neighborhood if a drug gang or
Speaker 9: something was looking for someone and they could hack those,
Speaker 9: or a foreign adversary was looking to gather intelligence or
Speaker 9: target an individual or something. Now double or triple or
Speaker 9: you know, exponentially increase that thanks to cars that have cameras,
Speaker 9: and everything's got a camera. Now everything is connected, Internet
Speaker 9: of things, smart devices.
Speaker 4: And.
Speaker 9: Sadly, I'm not feeling too happy this morning, Brian. Sadly
Speaker 9: these things are creating an increasingly dystopian world because we
Speaker 9: keep adding more and more of them in we don't
Speaker 9: understand the potential problems they create. And now you're starting
Speaker 9: to see serious and potentially tragic and catastrophic real world effects.
Speaker 9: You know, people being killed as a result of these devices.
Speaker 9: Now I'm not saying if it were nineteen seventy five,
Speaker 9: they might not still have been able to find these
Speaker 9: people and intimidate or kill them. It's becoming increasingly easy
Speaker 9: and the average person doesn't realize how they're contributing to
Speaker 9: this or potentially will be victimized by it.
Speaker 5: That's a great point you make, Dave, no question about it. Undeniable.
Speaker 5: Coming up next, Amazon frightening stuff. They acquired an artificial
Speaker 5: intelligence company whose technology here speaking of which everything you
Speaker 5: say red flag that with Dave Hadter Coming up next
Speaker 5: after I mentioned Zimmer Heating and air Conditioning family owner
Speaker 5: operated and this is three generations. Chris is Emmer now
Speaker 5: at the Helm coming up on eighty years. And their
Speaker 5: business model has worked because well, they're great at customer service.
Speaker 5: The price is always right. They can handle all of
Speaker 5: your HVAC needs. They've been keeping areas home safe, efficient
Speaker 5: and comfortable. Again coming up in eighty years. So you
Speaker 5: can have your system service by carrier. You can have
Speaker 5: them install a new system if you need it. And
Speaker 5: right now, if you have to go with a new system,
Speaker 5: get a carrier comfort system and say fifteen hundred and
Speaker 5: fifty bucks from my friends at Zimmer. Count on the
Speaker 5: folks at Zimer to do a great job, and that
Speaker 5: carrier system is outstanding. So to get an appointment scheduled
Speaker 5: five one three, five two one ninety eight ninety three
Speaker 5: five two one ninety eight ninety three. You can also
Speaker 5: schedule appointment and learn online about all the services they
Speaker 5: offer up a right hand corner on the website to
Speaker 5: schedule that appointment even after hours. Go Zimmer dot com
Speaker 5: fifty five KRC dot com.
Speaker 3: Well you got a ton of equity in your home?
Speaker 3: You're sick? You talk station right time?
Speaker 5: Us with gave had er interest it dot com is
Speaker 5: how you reached Dave.
Speaker 3: And the crew.
Speaker 5: All right, this does not sound like a good acquisition.
Speaker 5: Amazon acquiring an artificial intelligence company that has technology that
Speaker 5: hears everything that we say.
Speaker 3: That's scary.
Speaker 9: Hell yeah. So while we're raging against the machine this morning, Brian,
Speaker 9: this is just a perfect, perfect segue from the pre
Speaker 9: ivious topic about how the IoT is being hacked to
Speaker 9: find and potentially kill people. This fits in because this
Speaker 9: could make it even worse. So, b Now, I'd never
Speaker 9: heard of it till this story popped up, and there
Speaker 9: was no chance I would ever buy something like this.
Speaker 9: B is apparently a wearable device, think of something like
Speaker 9: a fitness tracker fit bit, that sort of thing. And
Speaker 9: as I understand it, and I only barely understand it
Speaker 9: because of this story. Again, I would never buy something
Speaker 9: like this and would encourage everyone who knows me not
Speaker 9: to do this. This thing is always listening and it's
Speaker 9: trying to sort of take contextual cues from what you're doing,
Speaker 9: who you're talking to, that sort of thing, capture all that,
Speaker 9: sort of like an assistant, make notes, create tasks and
Speaker 9: that sort of thing. Right, So I guess the purported
Speaker 9: benefit is it's like an always on assistant. It can
Speaker 9: hear quote unquote, and it can sort of do things
Speaker 9: on your behalf thanks to AI in an automated type
Speaker 9: of fashion, like you don't have to ask it to
Speaker 9: do X, Y or z. It sort of figures that
Speaker 9: out on its own based on your usage. That's how
Speaker 9: I understand that works. Again, I have not seen one
Speaker 9: of these, and like I said, there's no way I
Speaker 9: would use one. My real concern with this, Brian, And
Speaker 9: they talk about this in the article. So Amazon is
Speaker 9: buying this company, you know they want to get in
Speaker 9: the wearables game, I guess, and I'm sure this will
Speaker 9: be purported again to be a great convenience and benefit
Speaker 9: for you because it's going to do stuff on your behalf.
Speaker 9: YadA YadA YadA, But I want to reading the article
Speaker 9: that brought this up. I want to kind of back
Speaker 9: into my main point. Unlike traditional electronics that require deliberate input,
Speaker 9: AI wearables operate in the background. They listen for context,
Speaker 9: interpret conversations, and adapt to user behavior in real time.
Speaker 9: While market is tools for productivity impersonalization. This pass the
Speaker 9: functionality introduced the substantial privacy risks. Yeah, the devices are
Speaker 9: always listening together far more than intended, from background chatter
Speaker 9: to private conversations, creating data of trails users may not
Speaker 9: be fully aware of. So you and I meet for lunch,
Speaker 9: I show up for listener lunch. That's even better. Example.
Speaker 9: I show up for listener lunch and you have one
Speaker 9: of these things. Potentially every single person that was there
Speaker 9: has been recorded by this Oh clearly, Yeah, who knows
Speaker 9: what they're saying? Who knows how far away you can hear?
Speaker 9: Who knows how accurate it is in its transcriptions?
Speaker 12: Right?
Speaker 9: And now they say here. The device listens continuously unless
Speaker 9: the user manually mutes it primary function to help manage
Speaker 9: tasks by turning spoken cues into reminders and lists. It
Speaker 9: claims that it only records slash listens to people who
Speaker 9: have given it consent. Okay, So if I'm sitting in
Speaker 9: a restaurant near you, you don't know me, I'm having
Speaker 9: a private conversation with someone else. Can it hear that
Speaker 9: I haven't given it consent for sure?
Speaker 3: True?
Speaker 9: You know? So is it only listening to you as
Speaker 9: the owner because you're the only one that's given it consent?
Speaker 9: I mean, the whole thing is just crazy to me.
Speaker 9: But the bigger point it's not even this device per
Speaker 9: se or this Amazon deal or anything, but it's this
Speaker 9: idea that we keep adding more and more of this
Speaker 9: garbage AI glasses. You know, I wear glasses. Could my
Speaker 9: glasses have could they be men as new AI glasses?
Speaker 9: And you don't know while you're having lunch with me
Speaker 9: all that's being recorded. Well, yeah, that's sadly where we're at.
Speaker 9: And I bring this up because people need to understand
Speaker 9: this stuff is increasingly everywhere, it's increasingly listening. You don't
Speaker 9: know where the date is going, you don't know who
Speaker 9: has access to it, you don't know what they're doing
Speaker 9: to secure it, you don't know how it could be
Speaker 9: used against you at some future point, and you don't
Speaker 9: even know how accurate it is. Remember, AI hallucinates. Could
Speaker 9: this thing record a conversation with you and I do
Speaker 9: some sort of transcription on it or whatever, maybe not
Speaker 9: keep the actual recorded audio, create some sort of transcription
Speaker 9: and somehow that transcription would you know, frame me for
Speaker 9: a crime? Maybe?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I try to come over with the
Speaker 5: context in which you and I might be discussing criminal
Speaker 5: activity that we aren't really truly engaged in. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 5: let's say we're working on a script for a cop
Speaker 5: show on television or something. There is a murder and
Speaker 5: you got to talk about, you know, murdering someone in
Speaker 5: the setup and all, you know, just in a pure fiction,
Speaker 5: but you're making statements that sound like real information. It
Speaker 5: could consume that. And is it recording everything and keeping
Speaker 5: that recording? I mean, I suppose it would have to
Speaker 5: retain something in order to use its artificial intelligence logic
Speaker 5: to build upon prior conversations to kind of get an
Speaker 5: idea of which direction you might want to go, or whatever,
Speaker 5: to accomplish whatever goal it's supposed to accomplish.
Speaker 9: Yeah. Now, supposedly this b thing has you know, the
Speaker 9: AI kind of built into the device. It's doing most
Speaker 9: of the processing on the device, it's not sending it
Speaker 9: off to the cloud, So that's potentially better because that
Speaker 9: data would potentially be accessible to less people. But again,
Speaker 9: I understand the allure of these things. It's cool, it's convenient.
Speaker 9: It theoretically is going to improve your productivity and make
Speaker 9: your life better. I get it. I'm just telling folks
Speaker 9: that they need to think about the longer term consequences
Speaker 9: of something that could be listening to you all the time.
Speaker 9: And again, who has access to that, how long is
Speaker 9: it's stored, all that sort of stuff. You know, we
Speaker 9: are rapidly rolling this stuff out, and I don't think
Speaker 9: the average person gives much thought or has much concern
Speaker 9: around the potential consequences of this stuff. And I hate
Speaker 9: to be down the doomsday guy, but this stuff is
Speaker 9: everywhere increasingly so, and the potential consequences to all of us,
Speaker 9: especially if you don't understand that you might be being
Speaker 9: recorded either without your.
Speaker 5: Knowledge, and that made me a violation of laws out there,
Speaker 5: and know the state's laws vary from place to place
Speaker 5: regarding your right legally to record a conversation without someone
Speaker 5: else's permission, So to the extent it's listening into conversations
Speaker 5: intended to be in private, like a whispered communication at
Speaker 5: a different table, That could be a violation of the law.
Speaker 5: I'm no expert on that. It just immediately popped into
Speaker 5: my head. So maybe legal ramifications on top of the
Speaker 5: obvious privacy problems. Let's continue with Dave Hatter. It's six
Speaker 5: forty six right now, we're gonna find out about HURTS
Speaker 5: artificial intelligence in the problems that that presents. First, MRIs,
Speaker 5: how about four hundred and ninety five bucks for an MRI.
Speaker 5: You go to a hospital, you're gonna pay a hell
Speaker 5: of a lot more than that. MRIs can be like
Speaker 5: thirty five hundred bucks at a hospital. You may get
Speaker 5: a separate bill for the radiologist report that your doctor
Speaker 5: needs because it needs to be interpreted. That's what the
Speaker 5: radiologist reports all about. Echo cardigrams cost you thirty five
Speaker 5: hundred bucks at a hospital. Don't pay that five hundred
Speaker 5: bucks at affordable imaging services if you don't need an
Speaker 5: enhancement eight hundred with an enhancement. I've gotten multiple CT
Speaker 5: scans from affordable imaging services, meaning I say, maybe probably
Speaker 5: as much as twelve thousand dollars. Maybe a little bit
Speaker 5: more because they're five grand at a hospital lease they
Speaker 5: can be and then you know, separate bill with the
Speaker 5: radiologist report. Affordable imaging Services six hundred bucks with a
Speaker 5: contrast four fifty without. Why would you go to a
Speaker 5: hospital imaging department. Sure the overhead is loaded affordable imaging services,
Speaker 5: but they use the same kind of equipment with medical
Speaker 5: experts that have been doing this for decades.
Speaker 3: So do what I do.
Speaker 5: Go to affordable imaging services and save heap loads five
Speaker 5: one three seven, five three eight thousand. You do have
Speaker 5: a choice five one three seven, five three eight thousand
Speaker 5: online Affordable Medimaging.
Speaker 1: Dot com, fifty five krc the talk station and that
Speaker 1: is of.
Speaker 5: The fifty five krcdcalks station tech front of a day
Speaker 5: of Hatter or final segment, we always get three with
Speaker 5: Dave intrust it dot com and find Dave and the
Speaker 5: team what's going on over it hurts with artificial intelligence?
Speaker 4: Dave.
Speaker 9: Yeah, So this is a wild story and it points
Speaker 9: out in my mind despite all the hype and hyperbole
Speaker 9: we hear about AI. I mean, you can't hardly turn
Speaker 9: on any sort of media without hearing something about AISH
Speaker 9: all the time. It's it's everywhere, it's all the time,
Speaker 9: And I want to be really clear, Brian. As I've
Speaker 9: said many times in the past, there are many practical
Speaker 9: uses of this stuff. At INTEREST, we've come up with
Speaker 9: a lot of innovative ways to use this, some cybersecurity
Speaker 9: things that we've built on top of other AI related
Speaker 9: cybersecurity things. So I don't I always probably sound negative
Speaker 9: to people. There are plenty of positive uses, and there
Speaker 9: have been for many years. You know, AI is not new.
Speaker 9: It's been around for a long time, but it has
Speaker 9: rapidly progressed in its capabilities in the last few years,
Speaker 9: and it's just everywhere. I'm probably, like most of you,
Speaker 9: all sick of hearing about it all the time. But
Speaker 9: as we see more and more of it rolled out
Speaker 9: and used in different ways, whether it's embedded in IoT
Speaker 9: devices purportedly to help us or whatever, you know, we
Speaker 9: continue to see examples, despite all the hype of how
Speaker 9: great it is and how we're all going to be
Speaker 9: out of jobs and all that sort of thing, where
Speaker 9: it continues to have all kinds of problems. Whether it's
Speaker 9: so called AI therapists, there's some pre alarming stuff out
Speaker 9: there around that or this case here apparently hurts. So
Speaker 9: here's the headline, Brian Future, it hurts. AI system that
Speaker 9: scans for quote damage unquote on rental cars is turning
Speaker 9: into an epic disaster. So the idea is, you rent
Speaker 9: a car, you take it back to the airport. They
Speaker 9: run this through some system that has various sensors in it,
Speaker 9: and it scans the vehicle looking for damage and then
Speaker 9: uses AI to spot that damage. So rather than having
Speaker 9: a human being kind of give the thing once over,
Speaker 9: it's using AI. Apparently they rolled this out sometime back
Speaker 9: in April. The system is called UVI, assuming I'm pronouncing
Speaker 9: that right, and it seems to be making a lot
Speaker 9: of mistakes going haywire to some extent. They're getting an
Speaker 9: enormous amount of bad press. They say. Here, for example,
Speaker 9: someone gets a significant bill after the car was flagged
Speaker 9: for having damage. No one can see any damage on it.
Speaker 9: Next thing, you know, you try to call the customer service.
Speaker 9: They say, well, there's nothing we can do about it
Speaker 9: because that's just what the system said. And then you know,
Speaker 9: it's a great quote here that really I think kind
Speaker 9: of puts a finer point on this. None were able
Speaker 9: to help an all pointed fingers DEI scanner. They were
Speaker 9: told to contact customers work, but even that proved fudel
Speaker 9: after representative claims they can't do anything. Quote did the
Speaker 9: AI scanner misinterpret water reflections or dirt on the black car?
Speaker 9: Is damage? Unquote? There's no way to even present that possibility,
Speaker 9: no path to defend yourself. It's an unchallengeable automated accusation.
Speaker 9: And so, you know, could it find examples of damage
Speaker 9: a human being wouldn't find? Maybe kind of like if
Speaker 9: you remember Brian last I guess it was last week.
Speaker 9: Maybe we talked about the idea of you need to
Speaker 9: scan your ID to buy some beer or whatever at
Speaker 9: a store, and the idea that, you know, the clerk
Speaker 9: might do the calculation wrong, and the clerk might not
Speaker 9: be paying attention, might just want to let you slide
Speaker 9: through where the automated system would potentially stop that. You know,
Speaker 9: I understand why people want to build these things, but
Speaker 9: so much of it at this point is not it
Speaker 9: for primetime. Hurts is apparently getting an enormous amount of
Speaker 9: backlash on this, and I got to tell you now
Speaker 9: that I'm aware of this, of the likelihood of me
Speaker 9: rinting a car from Hurtz just went to zero because
Speaker 9: I'm not going to deal with this.
Speaker 5: I understanding, well a car, you know, in terms of process,
Speaker 5: I can see, you know, they pull the system into
Speaker 5: a garage that's rigged with cameras that can scan the
Speaker 5: car for damage.
Speaker 3: It makes sense.
Speaker 5: Do it, scan it ahead of time, mark it down,
Speaker 5: and then bring it back and scan it. I can
Speaker 5: see that that does a better job than human a
Speaker 5: human looking for damage on the car. But if you're
Speaker 5: going to put someone through that, you better have an
Speaker 5: opportunity right there to call into question the conclusions that
Speaker 5: it may like if you're going to scan the car
Speaker 5: right away and it's part of the process, I'll get
Speaker 5: the report while I am there, and I can say
Speaker 5: that's not a scratch, that's dirt, you know what I mean?
Speaker 9: Yeah, well at time, yeah, but real quick. So from
Speaker 9: the same article, two American readers also wrote to the
Speaker 9: website saying they've been find six hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 9: each after AI scanner's flag damage. But when they looked
Speaker 9: at the photos attached to the finance and there's the
Speaker 9: photos did not match the timeframes they rented the cars
Speaker 9: in each case, the photos shared damage occurred before their
Speaker 9: rend and they shouldn't have been responsible at all. So
Speaker 9: again there's all this hype, right, these things are infallible,
Speaker 9: We're all going to be replaced, we're all going to die, whatever.
Speaker 9: But there's more and more examples like this out there
Speaker 9: where it does not. I know, this is a shock
Speaker 9: that anyone's ever used software doesn't perform as as sold.
Speaker 9: So but again I can tell you any any organizations
Speaker 9: that's using something like this, I would not run a
Speaker 9: car from them at this point because I'm not going
Speaker 9: to get a six hundred and fifty dollars fine and
Speaker 9: basically have no recourse except to call a lawyer go
Speaker 9: to small claims court. Right, It's just it's ridiculous. He's
Speaker 9: got time for.
Speaker 3: That, all right, don't run from hurts.
Speaker 9: So interesting. It's an interesting world, Brian.
Speaker 5: It is, and I'm sure like every week from now forever,
Speaker 5: you'll have another illustration of the problems that we're going
Speaker 5: to face at our interest it dot com. Thank you
Speaker 5: to you for you and your company for sponsoring the
Speaker 5: segment important it is, and look forward to next Friday
Speaker 5: with another edition of Tech Friday. Dave I hope you
Speaker 5: have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
Speaker 9: Oh, it's my pleasure.
Speaker 5: Brian thanks Congressman Wedstrip, former congressman now private citizen in
Speaker 5: studio to talk about stuff and things and issues.
Speaker 3: He's looking forward to that.
Speaker 5: We'll have Andre you and joined the program at eight five,
Speaker 5: followed by Lori Flake from the Karen Wellington Foundation promoting
Speaker 5: their five K. I hope you can stick around.
Speaker 1: The biggest ten lines just minutes away. At the top
Speaker 1: of the hour, I'm giving you a fact now the
Speaker 1: Americans should know. Fifty five krs the talk station.
Speaker 14: This report.
Speaker 5: Seven o six on a Friday, and a very happy
Speaker 5: one to you. One hour from now the return of
Speaker 5: my Ewing. He was a thirty year veteran police officer
Speaker 5: since police department, outspoken online in his criticism of the
Speaker 5: current city council, the mayor, the police chief and the
Speaker 5: city manager.
Speaker 3: Andre A one hour from now.
Speaker 5: Returns at the fifty five Carssey Morning Show. We'll also
Speaker 5: here from Lori Flake at eight thirty the Karen Wellington
Speaker 5: Foundation five K. We'll learn about who Karen Wellington was
Speaker 5: and the benefits we get from the five K. It
Speaker 5: relates to breast cancer and fun of all things if
Speaker 5: you can mix those two subject matters. Welcome back to
Speaker 5: the fifty five Carosey Morning Show in studio for a
Speaker 5: full hour, we call on private citizen former Congressman Brad Winster.
Speaker 5: Good to see you, my friend, Thanks for coming in today.
Speaker 5: Always good to be with you, Brian. Perfect timing on
Speaker 5: the heels of Tech. Friday's Dave Hatter. One of the
Speaker 5: subject matters you want to talk about was drones generally speaking,
Speaker 5: but most notably those that are built by the Chinese
Speaker 5: Communist Party.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean that's a real concern, and this is
Speaker 15: this is throughout and you know, even even if you
Speaker 15: have something that was assembled in America doesn't mean it
Speaker 15: doesn't have all of its roots in China. But the
Speaker 15: fact of the matter is with a lot of these drones,
Speaker 15: they are assembled and built in China, and unfortunately we're
Speaker 15: we're buying them and putting them in our local security
Speaker 15: or UH and other areas and and even to for
Speaker 15: like traffic patterns and things like that.
Speaker 5: And the Department has a contingent of drones. Now, right,
Speaker 5: that wasn't where they bought theirs. Well, that's the thing,
Speaker 5: and that's that was the next area. I was going, oh, okay,
Speaker 5: So so for for public safety and things like that
Speaker 5: we're using which can have a positive use is they've
Speaker 5: had us pointed out in your in your segment there
Speaker 5: with him. There's there's a lot of good uses for
Speaker 5: a lot of these things. Unfortunately, they're all tied to
Speaker 5: potential nefarious behavior and often that's that's so clear. You
Speaker 5: talked about that Amazon potential purchase, all these things just
Speaker 5: gathering way too much information on us. But but the
Speaker 5: drones are doing that, and if they have a connection
Speaker 5: to China, which the docking stations for a lot of
Speaker 5: these drones do, so they can have control. So imagine
Speaker 5: you create some chaos in some urban area and the
Speaker 5: emergency medical response is going to be guided by what
Speaker 5: drones pick up, or the police response is guided by
Speaker 5: what drones pickup, and you can shut those down or
Speaker 5: send them off into other places. Now that puts us
Speaker 5: behind the eight ball, and instead of being a positive
Speaker 5: for those responses, then it's a negative. So it's a
Speaker 5: perfect thing for an adversary. Right, We're going to create
Speaker 5: chaos with something and I don't want to go too
Speaker 5: far on that, but it could be anything, right, Yeah,
Speaker 5: Dave's talked about sort of hacking into the like, for example,
Speaker 5: computer systems of teslas for example, and turning them in
Speaker 5: from you know, fully automated automobiles into something that could
Speaker 5: be used as a weapon. You know, you got a
Speaker 5: three thousand plus pound, four thousand and five thousand pound vehicle,
Speaker 5: you know, take it over, get it up to high speed,
Speaker 5: running into a transformer, running into a crowd of people,
Speaker 5: as an active terrorism He's talked about that multiple multiple times.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, when you can take control of cars
Speaker 15: and those types of things, it's I just think about
Speaker 15: when you have, like in Florida, an evacuation route and
Speaker 15: you can mess that up entirely, you know, with doing
Speaker 15: things that create accidents, et cetera. And this illustrates a
Speaker 15: problem that that COVID really really brought to the public's attention,
Speaker 15: that we don't make anything here anymore. Pharmaceuticals all made
Speaker 15: in China. China is basically responsible for the medical care
Speaker 15: of America's military if you want to look at a
Speaker 15: subset of the population.
Speaker 5: That's scary stuff. And all this came to light, Oh
Speaker 5: my god. They make all the hospital the durable medical equipment.
Speaker 5: They make the masks, they make the saline, Oh my god,
Speaker 5: and we needed to bring it back here. But your
Speaker 5: point on drones and then being manufactured by China, how
Speaker 5: is it that we even I mean, I'll be so
Speaker 5: bold as to say even trade with them. In the
Speaker 5: the days of the Soviet Union, which is our biggest
Speaker 5: enemy during the Cold War, we didn't do any business
Speaker 5: at all with them. They didn't buy our gene. They
Speaker 5: wanted our geens, they couldn't buy them because we didn't
Speaker 5: trade with them. I remember, we wouldn't buy military hardware
Speaker 5: from the Soviet Union for obvious reasons. Chinese Communist Party
Speaker 5: is every bit as bad in terms of being our
Speaker 5: enemy as anybody from the Stalin or Khrushchev era in
Speaker 5: the Soviet Union. They're out to be the dominant global power,
Speaker 5: and we are giving them the ability to do it
Speaker 5: by buying everything from them, and in buying things from them,
Speaker 5: it gives them, like the drones, an opportunity to well
Speaker 5: infiltrate us.
Speaker 15: Well, especially when they are controlling things that affect our lives,
Speaker 15: like in healthcare. You know, you've heard me say it
Speaker 15: how many times over the last five six years on
Speaker 15: this shift. You had have told me when I was
Speaker 15: in Iraq that an adversary controlled my pharmaceuticals as a
Speaker 15: surgeon in Iraq, my pharmaceuticals, my protective equipment.
Speaker 3: How did we let this happen?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 15: And what's really sad about all of this in the
Speaker 15: world today, there's no there's no gratitude from China for anything,
Speaker 15: because if you go back, we were the ones that said,
Speaker 15: let's hold our hands out, let's embrace checks yep, and
Speaker 15: let's let's let's start, let's start changing course with this stuff.
Speaker 15: And there was a geopolitical motivation behind that. That was
Speaker 15: when the Soviet Union was still around. We didn't want
Speaker 15: the communists in China joined forces with the communists in
Speaker 15: the Soviet Union. We like to percolate that, you know,
Speaker 15: that the animosity that sort of existed between those two countries.
Speaker 15: So why not trade with China to the exclusion of
Speaker 15: the Soviet Union. But in so doing, we just.
Speaker 5: Empowered the Chinese Communist Party even more and built that
Speaker 5: country because if you look at the trade imbalance, we
Speaker 5: bought billions and billions and billions of dollars from them.
Speaker 5: That's profit for the Chinese Communist Party. Yeap, and things
Speaker 5: have changed.
Speaker 15: I mean when we were kids, I think a lot
Speaker 15: of things you'd pick up anything and say made in
Speaker 15: right right now, it's at least they're an ass war too. Yeah,
Speaker 15: at least they're an ally. But we've got an adversary
Speaker 15: who is determined, who is determined to try and control
Speaker 15: us in every way possible. And it's in agriculture, it's
Speaker 15: it's across the board, social media, they've got that TikTok.
Speaker 15: I would love for the President to strike a deal
Speaker 15: to make this an American company, which is what Congress
Speaker 15: had said we need to do, and I think he
Speaker 15: understands that. But we've we've got to get it done.
Speaker 15: That is the greatest psyops operation that any country could
Speaker 15: put forward. It is they are in the minds, especially
Speaker 15: of our youth, you know, so the and these are
Speaker 15: the youth that we still have alive because at the
Speaker 15: same time they're working in creating fentanyl and killing more
Speaker 15: of our youth, where overdoses have killed over one hundred
Speaker 15: thousand for the like the last four years until the
Speaker 15: Trump administration, and now that number is going down because
Speaker 15: of more control at the border.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just.
Speaker 15: Everywhere you turn, Brian, it's everywhere you turn. They are
Speaker 15: so sophisticated in what they are doing, and it's the
Speaker 15: quiet things that just you don't see it affecting your
Speaker 15: everyday life until it does.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm thoroughly convinced the Chinese communist parties behind this
Speaker 5: propaganda campaign. I'll call it on carbon dioxide, global warming,
Speaker 5: climate change. Where does all the windmills and the technology,
Speaker 5: the solar panels, et cetera come to address this existential
Speaker 5: threat of exhalation plant food? Oh my god, we got
Speaker 5: to eradicate that from the atmosphere. It builds a Chinese
Speaker 5: Communist party because we buy everything from them that deals
Speaker 5: with global warming. And hm, now I had a cop
Speaker 5: Well they build coal plants exactly.
Speaker 3: They are increasing their coal plants. They don't care. It
Speaker 3: makes no sense.
Speaker 15: And you know, the interesting thing is if the Earth
Speaker 15: is warming, why, why is it? And how is it
Speaker 15: the controlling co two It makes a difference. We're doing
Speaker 15: all these things. I'm all for clean air and clean water,
Speaker 15: but what we found is what's warming the oceans In particular.
Speaker 15: The National Atmospheric and Oceanographic Administration said, well, we've reduced
Speaker 15: the particulate matter in the atmosphere so much that we
Speaker 15: basically put like a magnifying glass between the Sun and
Speaker 15: the earth, warming it. And yeah, and so now that
Speaker 15: same organization is injecting particulate matter into the atmosphere to
Speaker 15: see if it cools things down, and the same time,
Speaker 15: the Biden administration is calling for greater reductions of particulate matter.
Speaker 3: You know, maybe some of these screens were okay.
Speaker 15: Maybe God said this will be okay because it'll kind
Speaker 15: of keep things under control and it won't kill you
Speaker 15: where the heat might.
Speaker 5: I guess, well, plants put out oxygen and plants eat
Speaker 5: carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide ergo is good. If it's good
Speaker 5: for plants, it's good for all. I mean, Lord Almighty,
Speaker 5: I just I can't get beyond that. It was a
Speaker 5: made up thing. Carbon dioxide isn't a pollutant, period, end
Speaker 5: of the story. They fabricated that lie. And thankful the
Speaker 5: Trump administration just pulled the guidance on that one. So
Speaker 5: maybe better times are ahead of us more with uh, well,

Speaker 5: Seven nineteen on a Friday in studio, private citizen Brad
Speaker 5: Weinstrip talking about uh well, pretty much broad based group
Speaker 5: of topics today and springing from the Chinese Communist Party
Speaker 5: operated drones that we scoop up and gobble up on
Speaker 5: a regular basis. The other thing it was just I
Speaker 5: know you wanted to bring this up, Brad, but really,
Speaker 5: like existential three a threat apocalyptic type revelation, was that
Speaker 5: agro terrorism thing. We had that person that was found
Speaker 5: with some spore or something caught in an airport and
Speaker 5: if unleashed, that could have caused just thousands of deaths
Speaker 5: or millions of people. I mean, starvation immediately comes to
Speaker 5: mom and you're talking.
Speaker 15: About well, yeah, it was it was a fungus that
Speaker 15: it could be used as what they're now terming an agropen. Okay,
Speaker 15: so you have a fungus that can destroy your crops, right,
Speaker 15: and so these are the types of things. So maybe
Speaker 15: they want to just drop it off in one particular cornfield.
Speaker 3: You know. In the minute you do that, itad everyb.
Speaker 15: And let's see, let's see how this happens. Let's see
Speaker 15: what happens with it, Yeah, exactly, and do a test run.
Speaker 15: And of course we're going to do the test run
Speaker 15: right here in the United States. Well, they probably already
Speaker 15: done it China. To be honest with you are going
Speaker 15: to control in a controlled setting, but they're bringing these
Speaker 15: things in. This is this is one of the greatest
Speaker 15: concerns that I have right now when it comes to
Speaker 15: our food supply, is the security of our food supply.
Speaker 15: So they're in the universities and you know under this
Speaker 15: under the Trump administration and Brooke Rolins, Secretary of AAG,
Speaker 15: you know they're trying to enforce what even the first
Speaker 15: Trump administration put into place is you have to know
Speaker 15: wh who are in your research labs that helps and
Speaker 15: the and their associate with China or a CCP sympathizer
Speaker 15: in some way. You have to know this because they're
Speaker 15: stealing intellectual property. We are constantly working on how we
Speaker 15: can increase our production, right because we have a lot
Speaker 15: of people defeat in this country. Let's increase our production,
Speaker 15: maybe even be able to export to places where they
Speaker 15: can't produce what we can produce. But instead they want
Speaker 15: to steal that so that they can be the superior
Speaker 15: in that in the region. And it's intellectual property. We're
Speaker 15: the innovators here, truly, you have it be stolen well.
Speaker 5: And your valid point you make with regard to us
Speaker 5: knowing who the faculty are that are doing these research
Speaker 5: products that are funded by the American tax payer. That's
Speaker 5: where all the cutting edge stuff happens. That's where the
Speaker 5: intellectual property is created that we don't want stolen.
Speaker 3: I understand all that.
Speaker 5: If they're directly affiliate with the Chinese Communist Party, they
Speaker 5: shouldn't be there. But you know what, we live in
Speaker 5: a country of people that has less and less concern
Speaker 5: over our sovereignty, defending America's interest, even thinking America is
Speaker 5: a good place to li.
Speaker 3: I saw an article just the other day.
Speaker 5: Sixty percent of Germans that were surveyed wouldn't even fight
Speaker 5: for their country if they were invaded. Now, if you
Speaker 5: have an attitude like that, you have a vast, vast
Speaker 5: swath of people that are in these industries that the
Speaker 5: Chinese Communist Party is interested in. They don't need one
Speaker 5: of their own in there. How about bribe somebody, somebody
Speaker 5: who doesn't even view it as an espionage, someone who
Speaker 5: doesn't view it as treeson us. You offer someone who's
Speaker 5: not making a whole lot of money, who has access
Speaker 5: to this, one hundred thousand dollars in bribe. Hey, just
Speaker 5: steal the information, put it on a thumb drive and
Speaker 5: hand it. Put it in my pocket. You got a
Speaker 5: lot of opportunity there in a country that doesn't care
Speaker 5: about its own borders.
Speaker 15: Well, that's exactly right, and I think that that's been propagated.
Speaker 15: And you see people today. I used to say, you
Speaker 15: know that we had people that put you know, America last, Yeah,
Speaker 15: I mean here in the United States, and it's like,
Speaker 15: are you kidding me? Do you understand? But see, they
Speaker 15: don't understand history. The don't understand how this country even
Speaker 15: came about. You know, it's and so you've got this
Speaker 15: wave of influence trying to pit us against each other
Speaker 15: at all times. I know you had Christopher Smuthman on before.
Speaker 15: He can talk about that at a local level, right,
Speaker 15: And and it does it very well as a matter
Speaker 15: of fact. But you look at all these types of things,
Speaker 15: here's where it can hit home. People got very upset
Speaker 15: with COVID, but for some reason, too many people in
Speaker 15: America were willing to accept the lies of our own government.
Speaker 15: So you have people today that say, I don't want
Speaker 15: to fight for this country. Well, do you want to
Speaker 15: fight for Tony Fauci? I mean, you know, you understand
Speaker 15: what people went through during this time, right, So, but
Speaker 15: at the same time, there's another group that say he's
Speaker 15: a god, and I can't believe, you know, people would
Speaker 15: ever question him. So we got we got to get
Speaker 15: some trust in our government back. That's the main thing. Well,
Speaker 15: but I do want to say a little bit more
Speaker 15: about the agricultural product. Sure, so the opportunity for sabotage
Speaker 15: you go back to what Dave Hatter's talking about. Now,
Speaker 15: I'll just use a simple example that people can relate to.
Speaker 15: You know, when you can't have your food or you
Speaker 15: get sick because of your food and someone else did
Speaker 15: that intentionally, that should arouse every American. But if you
Speaker 15: were example, you know you past yourize milk right, and
Speaker 15: so our milk is safe to drink. Well, what if
Speaker 15: you could hack into the machinery that's pasteurizing the milk
Speaker 15: that someone's monitoring that says everything's being done right, the
Speaker 15: temperature is perfect, everything's done right. But in actuality, what
Speaker 15: the what the reader is seeing on the screen that
Speaker 15: says it's done right, isn't happening.
Speaker 5: Well, they've already been hacked into our water system exactly,
Speaker 5: and they've manipulated whatever where they were putting in water.
Speaker 5: I mean, if you can do that. You can poison
Speaker 5: the water storce and you think it's okay.
Speaker 3: Though. This is what I'm saying is you're looking at
Speaker 3: a screen.
Speaker 5: The person I know that says everything ran well, it's
Speaker 5: not representing reality.
Speaker 15: And then you're putting out something that's not past your eyes.
Speaker 15: People get sick. I'm just using that as an example.
Speaker 15: We do have industry out there that are working very
Speaker 15: hard in private sector, working very hard to be able
Speaker 15: to detect any type of aggro sabotage. And matter of fact,
Speaker 15: I'm going to go visit them in just a couple
Speaker 15: of weeks.
Speaker 5: Let's see that you got access to stuff like that
Speaker 5: benefit of your security clearance and.
Speaker 3: What's the team. You're on the President's.
Speaker 15: President's Intelligence Advisory Board, and I'm honored to be there.
Speaker 15: This has been around since Eisenhower and I had never
Speaker 15: heard of it basically until I got appointed. But I'm
Speaker 15: glad to have the chance to stay involved on a
Speaker 15: lot of issues, especially when it comes to our national
Speaker 15: security and health.
Speaker 5: Amen to that. Seven twenty six. If you five care
Speaker 5: see the dog station kitchen remodeling, think prestige interiors, and
Speaker 5: when you're thinking of prestigeteriers you were thinking about one guy,
Speaker 5: John Ryan. He is pressed Egonteriers. He's the man that'll
Speaker 5: be working with you and kitchen remodeling project, and you'll
Speaker 5: be glad about that. Really easy, easy guy to work with.
Speaker 5: And he's done so many kitchens over his thirty plus
Speaker 5: years of doing almost exclusively kitchens, that you can't throw
Speaker 5: something in his direction. He hasn't dealt with already, got
Speaker 5: great ideas about design, flow and function and storage. We
Speaker 5: of course took him up on those ideas and love
Speaker 5: what he did with our kitchen. Big projects are small.
Speaker 5: He's the man to work with. A plus the Better

Speaker 13: No delay out of Lackland northbound seventy five in pretty
Speaker 13: good shape too through the cut. Chuck Ingram on fifty
Speaker 13: five KR seat the talk station.
Speaker 5: Coup with seven thirty fifty five krc DE talk station
Speaker 5: Brian Thomas with private citizen former Congressman Brad Winster and studio.
Speaker 5: Still has his security clearance on the President's Security or
Speaker 5: Intelligence Committee and Internal Advisory Board, and so he has
Speaker 5: access to all kinds of secrets and stuff and things
Speaker 5: that he can't even talk about. I don't want to
Speaker 5: leave the subject to drones. I just want to mention
Speaker 5: real quick. I observe that Donald Trump said he's going
Speaker 5: to make America the number one global producer of drones.
Speaker 5: We got a little manufacturing to like catchup, ketchup to do. Yeah,
Speaker 5: I heard that may take as many as three years
Speaker 5: to accomplish. But at least we're on that trajectory. That's
Speaker 5: a good thing. We'll be making our own drones. But boy,
Speaker 5: when you look at what's going on with Ukraine and
Speaker 5: drone technology, and you look at what you know Israel
Speaker 5: did when they snuck into Iran and launched drones from close,
Speaker 5: fairly close range on those well variety of military targets.
Speaker 5: It was just all stealth. But it's the wave of warfare,
Speaker 5: the future of warfare. Yeah, you know that all those
Speaker 5: things combined.
Speaker 15: I was on Fox talking about really I called it
Speaker 15: the one two punch of Israel in the U United
Speaker 15: States on Iran. But before that, yeah, you saw what
Speaker 15: Ukraine did that they were able to penetrate into Russia,
Speaker 15: which I think would be pretty tough. Yeah, I was
Speaker 15: able to get your drones onto trucks. Into the heart
Speaker 15: of Russia. Yeah, around these military bases and then could
Speaker 15: open them up and then go in and destroy their planes.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 5: Right, Okay, they're small, they're compact, they can be easily hidden.
Speaker 5: You can stealthily get in somewhere, you know. Going back
Speaker 5: to your comment about this the spores and that they
Speaker 5: caught from that one one person, I just think they
Speaker 5: have a plastic bag with this potentially deadly sport in
Speaker 5: them that could kill all kinds of crops one person,
Speaker 5: and we have a huge influx of humanity into our country,
Speaker 5: legal and illegal all the time. Any single one of
Speaker 5: those people could have the exact same bagg filled with
Speaker 5: danger much in the same way. Yeah, Ukraine figured out
Speaker 5: a sneak into Russia with military hardware.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 5: Israel was able to, you know, put pagers out there
Speaker 5: and have them issued all the Hamas members and blow
Speaker 5: them up a couple of years later after they had
Speaker 5: distributed them.
Speaker 3: Holy cow.
Speaker 5: I mean, it just makes you realize how dangerous and
Speaker 5: susceptible we all are. We can't catch all the evil actors.
Speaker 15: No, you're never going to be able to. And some
Speaker 15: people are not like to me, like, well, how do
Speaker 15: you have peace? How do you sleep at night? Well,
Speaker 15: all this stuff, it's like, I just got to live
Speaker 15: the life I'm given here and I have a belief
Speaker 15: in God, and you know, we'll see what happens. Mankind
Speaker 15: is kind of out of control. But at the same time,
Speaker 15: I like where Donald Trump is going with that. Right,
Speaker 15: we need to be the dominant factor in that industry.
Speaker 15: We need to have the best, we need to be
Speaker 15: the makers of them. And he did talk about what
Speaker 15: we were talking about before, getting Chinese drones out of
Speaker 15: our systems and out of our lives and out of
Speaker 15: our country. You know, we went through this, Brian with Whahwei.
Speaker 15: Do you remember Whahwei talking about Whuawei about oh, six
Speaker 15: years ago. Huahwei was their surveillance camera system and things
Speaker 15: like that and communications. And I remember sitting with the
Speaker 15: Brits saying, you cannot buy theirs, right, you know, it
Speaker 15: looks good and you're going to well, we're going to
Speaker 15: have be able to protect ourselves, a face recognition all
Speaker 15: that kind of stuff. And it's like, no, you're not,
Speaker 15: You're turning yourself over to them. You do it, but
Speaker 15: we have been, we have been doing it. And one
Speaker 15: thing when drones were a nice little toy, just like
Speaker 15: a remote control boat your kid had, right, that seemed
Speaker 15: like a fine thing to do. It's beyond that, Oh,
Speaker 15: it's behavior and drones that can deliver things like aerosolives, fentanyl.
Speaker 3: These are concerns of mine.
Speaker 15: We are addressing those issues though, But the thing is,
Speaker 15: it's still very, very hard to totally control it.
Speaker 3: But you've got to start somewhere.
Speaker 5: And think about the slippery slope This leads to because
Speaker 5: of what we're talking about, how easy it is to
Speaker 5: do something nefarious, how many nefarious actors there are in
Speaker 5: the world. That usually is used as a sore to
Speaker 5: further invade our privacy. Oh, we've got to surveil everybody.
Speaker 5: We need to keep track of everyone's communication so we
Speaker 5: can find that bad actor. When we all know they
Speaker 5: have so much information that they gather every single day. Yes,
Speaker 5: they may be able to use it to find the
Speaker 5: person who perpetrated the crime or the terrorist act, but
Speaker 5: it's always after the fact.
Speaker 3: They do very.
Speaker 5: Little by way of intervention and stopping of crimes with
Speaker 5: this information they collect.
Speaker 15: So on a positive note of things that have happened recently,
Speaker 15: just let's turn to a ran first, of all what
Speaker 15: you saw with the Israelis. I mean, this really was
Speaker 15: a one two punch there. The Israelis have a tremendous intelligence,
Speaker 15: all the best in the world. They were able to
Speaker 15: take out individual scientists working on nuclear weapons, right, and
Speaker 15: leaders that they just targeted and basically left their population
Speaker 15: pretty much intact. And then we go in with these
Speaker 15: bunker busters. And some people want to say, well, that
Speaker 15: didn't do anything, didn't do anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it did.
Speaker 15: Psychologically it did a whole lot for one thing, because
Speaker 15: not only did it really surely have an effect on
Speaker 15: their nuclear program. And even if, as Obama's former or
Speaker 15: national security advisors said that, well they moved stuff, well
Speaker 15: if they move stuff, it's because you gave them the
Speaker 15: money too, He gave more tax payer dollars. But besides that,
Speaker 15: you know psychologically what it did, and you know, we
Speaker 15: went in they didn't know it. You know, this is
Speaker 15: their prize possession, this nuclear facility, and we go in
Speaker 15: and while they slept and took it out and they
Speaker 15: don't even know we were there until they heard the boom.
Speaker 15: But you know who else didn't know we were there.
Speaker 3: Jes King.
Speaker 15: And I think that's an important thing. To show when
Speaker 15: you talk about American might and American capabilities, so when
Speaker 15: we want to have these capabilities, why to be a deterrent?
Speaker 15: So we talk about all these bad things, but if
Speaker 15: if these people understand what we're capable of doing to them,
Speaker 15: it ought to make them think twice.
Speaker 5: Telegraph the deterrence with that mission. It's a pretty unbelievable
Speaker 5: mission too. More with Brad Winster seven thirty six. Right

Speaker 13: Northbound seventy five and pretty good shape too through the cut.
Speaker 13: Chuck Ingram on fifty five k the talk station seven.
Speaker 5: Forty Here fifty five KRC the talk station Brian Thomas
Speaker 5: with former Congressman Brad Winsor.
Speaker 3: Let's pivot over to Russia Gate. Congressman.
Speaker 5: Apparently there was a twenty eighteen intelligence report written that
Speaker 5: basically confirms there was no Russia collusion with the Trump campaign,
Speaker 5: that it was all made up. This was a conclusion
Speaker 5: from internal intelligence sources in the United States government. And
Speaker 5: we only now twenty twenty five get a twenty eighteen
Speaker 5: report because it was classified and buried and buried as well. Now,
Speaker 5: were you aware of this twenty eighteen report back when
Speaker 5: it was released, because you were on the inside with
Speaker 5: your security clearance and access to all this kind of thing.
Speaker 15: We wrote it. We wrote it. We were we had
Speaker 15: to keep your mouth shut all these years, right, We
Speaker 15: were in the majority when we wrote this. Okay, we
Speaker 15: did the investigation, and we you know, it started with
Speaker 15: oh Trump colluded with Russia. Well that was the beginning,
Speaker 15: and open eyed we go Okay, well, let's let's see
Speaker 15: if he did well. This is when we found out
Speaker 15: they paid for the fake dossier going after Trump, all
Speaker 15: the nefarious things they were doing, going to Carter page
Speaker 15: this and that.
Speaker 3: So we wrote this report.
Speaker 5: And then the line was made up in an effort
Speaker 5: to steer people away from Hillary Clinton's email problems. Originally correct, Well,
Speaker 5: that was Hillary versus Trumps. Absolutely that that was the idea,
Speaker 5: and Trumps was in bed with the Russians, and that's
Speaker 5: going to make him look bad, further ensuring Hillary Clinton
Speaker 5: will get elected. That was the that was the premise
Speaker 5: of their motive, motivation. And I can tell you, Brian,
Speaker 5: I remember sitting in committee one time, just looking over
Speaker 5: at the other side of the aisle, thinking there's somebody
Speaker 5: a virtue there, And I said, how did you feel
Speaker 5: when you found out you paid for this fake dossier?
Speaker 5: Not one person lifted their head and looked over at me.
Speaker 5: Not one person. They just kept their heads down. But
Speaker 5: we wrote this report in twenty eighteen, it was classified.
Speaker 5: Then there's this the change in the House. Democrats take
Speaker 5: over the House. Adam Schiff is now in charge of
Speaker 5: the Intelligence Committee, and this report gets buried and I
Speaker 5: mean buried paper, only a couple paper copies, I believe,
Speaker 5: and nowhere to be found, and it's going to stay classified,
Speaker 5: which means we can't talk about it. So when Tulsa
Speaker 5: Gabbert was able to come out with this, she's just
Speaker 5: starting with our report and then she's digging and finding
Speaker 5: more things laying around in burn bags, et cetera. But
Speaker 5: you're right, here's here's Hillary with her private server and
Speaker 5: all that email scandal with that. So you talk about
Speaker 5: trying to create a distraction, and I find that rich
Speaker 5: because Barack Obama is now saying what's coming out now
Speaker 5: is a weak attempt at a distraction. No, it's a
Speaker 5: strong disclosure of facts in the in the effort of
Speaker 5: trying to let the American people people have a way
Speaker 5: of trusting their government, because we if we can provide
Speaker 5: some truth and justice to what the government's been doing,
Speaker 5: maybe we can turn that ship around. But this tells
Speaker 5: the American people, you were right, America, this government is
Speaker 5: not to be trusted. Well, and they found behind the
Speaker 5: scenes that there was no connection between the Russia and
Speaker 5: the Trump campaign. Trump gets elected, So rather than just
Speaker 5: let this thing go, they pivot and say, all right, well,
Speaker 5: Trump's going to be in office, but we're not going
Speaker 5: to let him succeed. We're going to tag him as
Speaker 5: a Russian asset. We're going to bolster this argument, and
Speaker 5: then we're going to put him on trial basically for
Speaker 5: we're colluding with the Russians, knowing full well that the
Speaker 5: lynchpin for all these Russian allegations after the intelligence community
Speaker 5: determined there was no connection, was the fake Steele Dossiert.
Speaker 15: Yeah, and if they can't get it done there, then
Speaker 15: they're going to impeach him, you know.
Speaker 3: And that was the other thing.
Speaker 15: The Intelligence Committee became the impeachment Committee, which should have
Speaker 15: been under Jim Jordan's watch on his committee Judiciary. But anyway,
Speaker 15: this is why we brought Jim Jordan over to the
Speaker 15: Intelligence Committee during that time. But you know, I sat
Speaker 15: there and I said, what is happening here? I said,
Speaker 15: I joined the military in nineteen ninety eight because Bill
Speaker 15: because we kept getting attacked and Bill Clinton was President
Speaker 15: of the United States. I didn't vote for Bill Clinton,
Speaker 15: but he is who the people elected. And we're fortunate
Speaker 15: to live in a country where we get to elect
Speaker 15: our leaders. And Donald Trump just got elected. Now, normally,
Speaker 15: you know, you fight in a political race and if
Speaker 15: you don't win, you gather yourself together and go for
Speaker 15: the next round. We have rounds every two years for
Speaker 15: the House, so we have rounds. Fight again. That's fine.
Speaker 15: But what you're doing is you don't like the results
Speaker 15: of the election, so you're trying to change it, and
Speaker 15: you're trying to dismantle it, and you're trying to weaken it. Look,
Speaker 15: Obama's not president and he won't be president again, but
Speaker 15: the American people need to know the truth. John Brennan
Speaker 15: went to the White House because somebody in the in
Speaker 15: the the Hillary Clinton camp, said she's concocting a scandal
Speaker 15: against Donald Trump to take attention away from her email
Speaker 15: server and to create a scandal with him. So he
Speaker 15: tells President Obama, this is what's happening, right, and then
Speaker 15: lo and behold, there's this dossier and you know Carter
Speaker 15: Page and all these types of the public right right,
Speaker 15: you get one media outlet to run with it, and
Speaker 15: now everyone says as reported by.
Speaker 3: And it's real and becomes real.
Speaker 15: Then in their mind and our media today does nothing. Look,
Speaker 15: you just you just heard Obama put out a statement
Speaker 15: he didn't face reporters and take questions. It wouldn't have
Speaker 15: mattered anyway, because they don't they don't ask, they don't
Speaker 15: ask the hard questions. But he said he called these
Speaker 15: bizarre allegations. They're not They are bizarre, but they're facts.
Speaker 3: He didn't deny him. Nobody has.
Speaker 15: Yeah, you look at their comments of all these people involved,
Speaker 15: they just throw out adjectives against Donald Trump or whoever,
Speaker 15: and just oh, he's just trying to cover up how
Speaker 15: bad he is and this and that. And he's like, no,
Speaker 15: he's trying to let the American people see what actually
Speaker 15: happened in their government and the real collusion. The real
Speaker 15: collusion was between and actually it was between the Democrats
Speaker 15: Christopher Steele indirectly, but they paid for him, and he
Speaker 15: worked with Russians, yeah, to create the dossier. Now, if
Speaker 15: Putin favored Donald Trump, I don't think he would have
Speaker 15: cared for a couple of Russians working with Christopher Steele
Speaker 15: to try and take Trump down.
Speaker 5: Let's pause, We'll bring former congress from Brad Wins for

Speaker 5: with former Congressman brad Winstrip going over the issues and
Speaker 5: real quick here in terms of the foe, the fabricated
Speaker 5: Donald Trump hit piece, the Russian collusion thing. You think
Speaker 5: any heads are going to roll as a consequence of that,
Speaker 5: We too far past the event. I know, people waving
Speaker 5: around statute limitations that kind of stuff, But this seems
Speaker 5: to be an ongoing thing.
Speaker 3: Well it does.
Speaker 15: But but there have been some indictments, which is which
Speaker 15: is encouraging to see that have moved forward, or not indictments.
Speaker 5: But referrals to the grand jury. Yeah, exactly, all right,
Speaker 5: So do the extend criminal charges are handed down by
Speaker 5: the grand jury, then it'll be up for the defense
Speaker 5: attorney whoever this is, to make the argument that it's
Speaker 5: barred by the statute limitation.
Speaker 3: So we've got a while to wait for that.
Speaker 15: Yeah, And I think treason is a good one to
Speaker 15: bring forward. And certainly you can say that that's what
Speaker 15: they're doing. They're totally going against the American system and
Speaker 15: our values and our virtures that we have free and
Speaker 15: fair elections and that you know, we're talking about trying
Speaker 15: to stop outside sources affecting our elections, and it's internal.
Speaker 5: It is, and they weaponize eight agencies within the government
Speaker 5: to go after a political rival or with I mean
Speaker 5: that they are that political within these lettered agencies is
Speaker 5: frightening enough in and of itself.
Speaker 15: So and that's that's a communist way, I mean to communists.
Speaker 15: Oh yeah, nothing's a lie if it benefits the state
Speaker 15: party and for the party exactly, and the state being
Speaker 15: the party.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 15: So that's the mentality that I think we're seeing from
Speaker 15: the leadership of the Democrat Party. And I don't want
Speaker 15: to throw every Democrat under the bus, because there are
Speaker 15: many I worked with and shake their head and walk away.
Speaker 15: But the media doesn't call people out, and neither do
Speaker 15: some people within the within the party. Now you're going
Speaker 15: to have someone on coming into this.
Speaker 5: Speaking he calls things out. Andre Ean is going to
Speaker 5: be in studio with the thoughts, you know, ongoing thoughts
Speaker 5: and commentary about downtown Cincinnati and his general dissatisfaction, if
Speaker 5: I may be so lightly play upputting it with current administration, council,
Speaker 5: the mayor of the city manager, and the police chief.
Speaker 5: But you were at the town hall on Monday that
Speaker 5: Christopher Smith and vvike Ramaswami put together.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I did want to go two friends of mine,
Speaker 15: right and my city that we're talking about. So I
Speaker 15: thought it would be a good thing to attend and
Speaker 15: I was glad I was able to be there. I
Speaker 15: thought it was really really well done. A lot of
Speaker 15: interesting points were brought up. But the you know, the
Speaker 15: people of Cincinnati are very concerned to what's happening in
Speaker 15: their city, and they're very concerned about the leadership in
Speaker 15: the city of Cincinnati. And you know, I I'll tell you,
Speaker 15: maybe it's just a military mentality where you you know,
Speaker 15: and when you're in leadership, you have accountability for everything
Speaker 15: happening underneath you. And it's not a time for a vacation.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 15: And and you know, he had the mayor, he was away.
Speaker 15: I get that you're allowed to take a vacation, but
Speaker 15: when something happens, you're going to have to respond a
Speaker 15: little bit better. And you know, I think what I
Speaker 15: gathered from the town hall is people are tired of
Speaker 15: someone just came on, come on, so we're going to
Speaker 15: put more money into this, and we've been doing this
Speaker 15: and that and blah blah blah, and then you hear
Speaker 15: the litany of excuses. You know, people are responsible for
Speaker 15: their own actions. And I say this when it comes
Speaker 15: these mass shootings or whatever. You know, in DC, they
Speaker 15: want another gun law really, these people are all violating
Speaker 15: the law. They know murders against the law. They're going
Speaker 15: to do it anyway, one way or another, you know
Speaker 15: Timothy mcveigh's style, blowing up a building, whatever the case
Speaker 15: may be, driving a truck into people. They're going to
Speaker 15: do it regardless of your laws. So the question is until,
Speaker 15: and I say this is a societal issue, until you
Speaker 15: look at the events in someone's life that have led
Speaker 15: to the thoughts and feelings that this behavior is okay,
Speaker 15: then you're never Until you address that, you're not going
Speaker 15: to solve it.
Speaker 3: So what is it? What is it?
Speaker 15: As one young man stood up, a Black American as
Speaker 15: he called himself, he said, Elon Musk is an African American.
Speaker 15: I'm a Black American, And he said, it's fatherless homes,
Speaker 15: it's a lack of faith in God. It's all these
Speaker 15: things where virtue doesn't matter anymore. And you think this
Speaker 15: thing is okay, and you're a hero to somebody when
Speaker 15: you do these things. That's a bigger problem too.
Speaker 5: Well, And it sounds like you're a hero because there's
Speaker 5: always a handful of crazies on the internet who will
Speaker 5: scream out messages of support.
Speaker 3: Good job. I'm glad you did it.
Speaker 5: Nice job shooting the CEO at at the health insurance
Speaker 5: company the back of the head.
Speaker 4: You go.
Speaker 5: Well, that voice and that child, that choir of people
Speaker 5: in support of that represent just the tiniest fraction of society,
Speaker 5: but it sounds like they're the majority when you get
Speaker 5: on one.
Speaker 15: Well, and it's especially bad when it's a council woman.
Speaker 15: Uh yeah, it said they deserve it. They deserve it,
Speaker 15: they had it coming.
Speaker 5: Yeah, tell Holly that Congress from former Congress from Brad Winsor.
Speaker 5: But it's always great having you in the studio having
Speaker 5: these conversations. Appreciate it. And I don't know we solve
Speaker 5: the problems of the WARLD. We certainly identified a few
Speaker 5: of them and we'll see if we can't get some
Speaker 5: solve between now and our next conversation.
Speaker 3: Thank you again. I have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
Speaker 5: All right, we'll see in another time, Yes you will,
Speaker 5: all right, stick around andre un coming up next fall

Speaker 5: Lori Flake. She's with the Karen Wellington Foundation. They're doing
Speaker 5: a five K coming up. Karen Wellington, the victim of

Speaker 5: what she was all about. So in her name, they've
Speaker 5: been well sending folks that are struggling with cancer diagnosis
Speaker 5: to fund to fun events, fun things to do like
Speaker 5: skydiving and other things, and of course the charity funds
Speaker 5: that work. So Laurie at the bottom of the are.
Speaker 5: In the meantime, I am so happy to have in studio.
Speaker 5: What an inspirational guy. Truth to power. Andre Ewing a
Speaker 5: n d are e Ewing e wyng. I say it
Speaker 5: and spell it out loud, because I want you to
Speaker 5: head over to his Facebook page. Just search for Andre Ewing.
Speaker 5: He'll see him. You'll see Curse Breakers three hundred. You
Speaker 5: always mentioned Cursebreakers three hundred. Andre, Welcome back, man, It's
Speaker 5: so cool to see you.
Speaker 16: Hey, brother, Brian's so happy to be here. I'm excited
Speaker 16: and once again on fire.
Speaker 5: Okay, real quick, here, put some context before we start
Speaker 5: diving into the stuff you've been ranting about of late,
Speaker 5: and Lord knows you have enough subject matter to go
Speaker 5: on a rant. Cursebreaker three hundred, what's that all about?
Speaker 5: What's behind that moniker?
Speaker 16: It developed through the prison system of trying to help
Speaker 16: returning citizens. So even as a police officer, I got
Speaker 16: tired of dropping them off at the justice center and
Speaker 16: that was it. So I wanted to assist and help
Speaker 16: them to get out. So I was trying to let
Speaker 16: them know that you can break these strongholds on your life.
Speaker 16: So I would go inside the prisons and tell them
Speaker 16: you can identify the curse. You can confront this curse
Speaker 16: and have the power once you identified it and you've
Speaker 16: confronted it to overpower this stronghold on you be able
Speaker 16: to move it out the way and then destroy it.
Speaker 16: And there is Curse Breakers three hundred. It goes we
Speaker 16: get it is three hundred actually from the Bible Judges
Speaker 16: seven seven people related to the movie the three hundred.
Speaker 16: But it shows that this is an elite group and
Speaker 16: together we can defeat and beat millias if necessary.
Speaker 3: Well, that's beautiful.
Speaker 5: You know the idea that you know, thirty years as
Speaker 5: a police officer and again thanks to your service to
Speaker 5: the community over all those years. I'm sure you have
Speaker 5: stories that we could talk about for hours and hours
Speaker 5: of what you've seen and lived through as a police officer.
Speaker 5: But the idea that you would, you know, move from
Speaker 5: your role as a law enforcer locking people up to
Speaker 5: go into the lock up and try to get them
Speaker 5: from stopping from preventing them from being a recipibus criminal.
Speaker 5: You know, when you get out, there's a better path.
Speaker 5: I wish more officers would would go down that road.
Speaker 5: Do you think it really does some good?
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it does some good. Excuse me.
Speaker 16: One thing that was interesting in that journey is that
Speaker 16: a lot of negativity, obviously that the inmates would have.
Speaker 16: And I was doing a series there on forgiveness, and
Speaker 16: for at least two months they actually did not know
Speaker 16: who I was being inside the prison because I was
Speaker 16: engaging with them, going through church service with them. And
Speaker 16: I actually said, you've never asked, and I never told
Speaker 16: you what my profession is. Didn't now I'm a uniform
Speaker 16: off So I sat there and told them. Look, I said,
Speaker 16: I'm a Cincinnati police officer, and at that time you
Speaker 16: could have heard a pin drop and they looked at
Speaker 16: me and said, no, brother Dre, you're not because you've
Speaker 16: treated us fair, you've washed our feet, you showed us love,
Speaker 16: you sat in here with us as if nothing was wrong.
Speaker 16: And I said, this is the way. I know you've
Speaker 16: been offended in certain cases. I know you've gotten extra
Speaker 16: charges on you, but I'm showing you forgiveness is the
Speaker 16: right way.
Speaker 3: And when a young man.
Speaker 16: Stood up and said, when I was going to leave here,
Speaker 16: I was going to assassinate a police officer until you
Speaker 16: were here, and now I am not, it showed the
Speaker 16: impact that there needs to be serious conversations and these
Speaker 16: inmates say, who have been done wrong? But police officers,
Speaker 16: we can together by the power of God. It shows
Speaker 16: that we can heal well.
Speaker 5: And you also you pointed out through illustration that the
Speaker 5: police officers, generally speaking, aren't bad people.
Speaker 3: Correct. Correct?
Speaker 16: I mean there's this entire narrative that every police officer
Speaker 16: is bad. Right, No, I mean I've worked with them.
Speaker 16: Are there bad cops? Absolutely absolutely? And have how I
Speaker 16: identified and even spoken out on these things. And this
Speaker 16: is why in the past I ran for Sentinel president
Speaker 16: that would have a voice to address these matters of
Speaker 16: civil rights and equal rights. But the peers felt that
Speaker 16: I was too vocal and they didn't want somebody vocal
Speaker 16: to speak out on the behalfs of police officers.
Speaker 5: I understand that, and you are outspoken. Like I said
Speaker 5: under young on Facebook, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.
Speaker 5: All right now, Pivoting over your most recent rant, some
Speaker 5: strong words directed at Iris Rawley having been at police officer.
Speaker 5: She was recently involved in a bit of a verbal
Speaker 5: altercation with the police officer. Was she preventing him from
Speaker 5: performing his job? And isn't that a citable offense? I mean,
Speaker 5: you look right when you look at it. What's your
Speaker 5: take on that most recent interaction with this insane police
Speaker 5: police department officer?
Speaker 16: First of all, was a from a it was officer
Speaker 16: Herd a female and she apparently works down at Finley
Speaker 16: Marketing does a phenomenal job. I heard she's only been
Speaker 16: on about four years and she works the community. She's
Speaker 16: out on foot and she's trying to make sure that
Speaker 16: the streets are clear and when she gets complaints and
Speaker 16: based on this interaction, Miss Rowley approaches her during this investigation.
Speaker 16: She already knew the subject, The subject was calm, and
Speaker 16: she still interferes and she asked, ma'am, could you please
Speaker 16: just stand over there? She said, I don't absolutely have
Speaker 16: to do nothing. I'm going to follow you. And she
Speaker 16: was right in between the subject and the police officer,
Speaker 16: which is extremely dangerous.
Speaker 3: That's outrageous.
Speaker 5: Yes, Now, could the officer have cited her for that
Speaker 5: because she was performing her duty as a police officer
Speaker 5: and Irish really got in between her and I don't
Speaker 5: want the subject the purp whatever, but that impeded her
Speaker 5: ability to do her job and complete the investigation.
Speaker 16: Absolutely obstruction of official business. And this officer was totally professional.
Speaker 16: They were polite, they were on point, and showed high
Speaker 16: integrity and that's what should be praised even in this moment.
Speaker 16: But there's things that need to be ident fight. Are
Speaker 16: you going to be an activist or you going to
Speaker 16: be a representation even for the public. But your words
Speaker 16: is that you need to put an officer on your list,
Speaker 16: and if they get on your list, then you may
Speaker 16: be able to get them fired.
Speaker 14: How does that boost the morale?
Speaker 16: Of police officers, knowing that this individual is working in
Speaker 16: city council.
Speaker 5: Well, she has been an outspoken critic of the police
Speaker 5: department generally speaking, I mean speck since the riots. That's
Speaker 5: where she came to prominence.
Speaker 16: Correct, Correct, And I've always said that that Irish Rolie
Speaker 16: has done some great work. There were some things that
Speaker 16: were needed and necessary in the city and in dealing
Speaker 16: with policing.
Speaker 3: I agree with that, but collaborative.
Speaker 14: Correct. But when you move to this.
Speaker 16: Degree, what exactly is your motive at this particular point.
Speaker 16: We need to understand that if you, as a city leader,
Speaker 16: are telling everyone that police are no good, right, we
Speaker 16: don't need police disregard what they say, and this is
Speaker 16: a leader who has a high influence on the community,
Speaker 16: then we need to redirect our energy and find out
Speaker 16: what exactly is going on here because this does not
Speaker 16: help police relations.
Speaker 5: Well certainly, And circling back to your interactions with the
Speaker 5: folks that have been arrested, and we're in the prison system,
Speaker 5: a guy wants to get out of jail and kill
Speaker 5: a police officer. Andre Ewing shows up and shows a
Speaker 5: different side of the police department and a different side
Speaker 5: of who these officers are, and you completely change his
Speaker 5: heart and mind. Meanwhile, Iris ROLI's out there maintaining that
Speaker 5: sort of broad brush perception of the police department, suggesting
Speaker 5: that all of them are bad.
Speaker 3: Correct, correct, And this helps no one.
Speaker 5: No, And this is what Smithman screams about all the time.
Speaker 5: How come are elected officials, the council members, city manager
Speaker 5: not elected, I understand, but the mayor aren't coming out
Speaker 5: in more strongly saying positive things about the police, you know,
Speaker 5: like you do pointing out the contrary narrative. This is
Speaker 5: what role models should be doing in order to bring
Speaker 5: about this better sense of safety and a greater willingness
Speaker 5: of everybody within the city to work with the police
Speaker 5: and not consider them an enemy from the get go.
Speaker 5: That silence is a really terrible thing. Iris is saying
Speaker 5: it out loud, but the silence from the elected officials
Speaker 5: sort of adds to it. Oh, it must be true
Speaker 5: what Iris is saying. The mayor hasn't come out and
Speaker 5: said anything to the contrary exactly.
Speaker 16: And I've always stated this, Every elected official on council
Speaker 16: should do a ride along with the police at least
Speaker 16: once once a week. At least once a week and
Speaker 16: rotate on different shifts every week, because it amazes me
Speaker 16: how you quarterback the job, but you refuse to get
Speaker 16: in the seat to see exactly what we do. And
Speaker 16: I've challenged individuals on that. I've even when I was
Speaker 16: on the force, I had told the city manager, please
Speaker 16: ride along because there are things that you just don't
Speaker 16: know about that you sit in this seat, then your
Speaker 16: optics will be completely changed. So don't quarterback an officer's
Speaker 16: position until you get in that hot seat on a
Speaker 16: regular basis, because I can say that Smitherman years ago
Speaker 16: did ride along with me, and he had a different
Speaker 16: perception on certain circumstances where he even said, I can't
Speaker 16: believe you didn't taste that guy, because I would have
Speaker 16: tasted said exactly looking different in the eyes of a
Speaker 16: police officer.
Speaker 5: Will continue with Andre Ewing again. Head on to the
Speaker 5: Facebook and check him out and some of the ramts
Speaker 5: he goes on. You're gonna love what he has to say.
Speaker 5: Eight to sixteen. Will continue with Andre after these brief words.
Speaker 6: Fifty five KRC.
Speaker 5: Here's your channel nine first one toblecas hot, humid and
Speaker 5: a chance of afternoon range eighty nine for the high
Speaker 5: sixty nine at night with a few clouds, ninety for
Speaker 5: the hei tomorrow with the mostly sunny skies, hot humid
Speaker 5: and rain in the afternoon, sixty nine every night with
Speaker 5: a few clouds, and round three Sunday, hot humid rain
Speaker 5: in the afternoon ninety one for the high sixty nine.
Speaker 3: Right now, let's get a traffic update.
Speaker 13: Chuck from the UCF Transit Center near the sixty percent
Speaker 13: of Americans waiting on an organ transplanner from multicultural communities.
Speaker 13: Give the gift of vife, Become an organ donor or
Speaker 13: explor living donation at uchelp dot com slash transplant. He's
Speaker 13: found seventy four shut down due to an accident. Before
Speaker 13: you get to the state line, traffic is back in
Speaker 13: up past the Brookville Ramp. Northbound seventy five slows a
Speaker 13: bit through the cut, then heavy out of Saint Bernard
Speaker 13: to an accident near Gabra sethbound seventy five slows out
Speaker 13: of Lockland two ingram on fifty five krs the talk station.
Speaker 5: It is eight nineteen on a Friday. Happy Friday to
Speaker 5: you extra special Happy Friday. Andre Ewing in studio. After
Speaker 5: thirty years of service, the cincinnta police department, come engaging
Speaker 5: in community activism like he did when he was on
Speaker 5: the police force, going into the prisons and trying to
Speaker 5: talk how to break the curse. This concept of curse
Speaker 5: breakers three hundred yas behind. But we're pivoting over to
Speaker 5: some of the issues he's been on a rant about
Speaker 5: of late. You know, iris Roli be included among those.
Speaker 3: She I guess she's.
Speaker 5: Serving no other role with the Parvoll administration as than
Speaker 5: some sort of paid advisor, Andre if I got that right.
Speaker 16: That is what I've been told is she's a paid advisor,
Speaker 16: and she works as an advisor for the mayor, the chief,
Speaker 16: and the city manager.
Speaker 5: As a consultant, okay, and obviously not being consulted to
Speaker 5: smooth things over with the police department, considering she's going
Speaker 5: after them all the time. And I know you've given
Speaker 5: her props for her work dealing with the collaborative agreement
Speaker 5: after the riots, and she has some you know, some
Speaker 5: good points under her name, But in her role right
Speaker 5: now as an activist, and considering the direction she goes
Speaker 5: with her activism, I got to imagine the only purpose
Speaker 5: she serves with the with the provol administration is that
Speaker 5: she's got such a profound, strong voice within the black
Speaker 5: community that she gets in votes.
Speaker 16: Well, how can I say that? Brother Smithman said it
Speaker 16: the best. What exactly is your role? You're you're getting
Speaker 16: paid by the city tax dollars?
Speaker 3: What is your role? Right?
Speaker 14: And until.
Speaker 16: The city administration allows it to be very clear and
Speaker 16: what she can and cannot do, this will be a
Speaker 16: mystery to city taxpayers at this particular time.
Speaker 5: And and Ken Cober, the FOP president, did file a
Speaker 5: complaint against her for some of the things she said
Speaker 5: out loud, but the city just issued a report giving
Speaker 5: her a pass saying no, this was not in her
Speaker 5: role in any capacity with the city. Ergo she said
Speaker 5: these things and her role as a private citizen nothing
Speaker 5: to see here. I'm not quite sure that I buy
Speaker 5: that anyway. One of the things we talked about off break.
Speaker 5: On the break, you wanted to bring up the whole
Speaker 5: idea of District five and the elimination of District five
Speaker 5: and how that actually impacts the former District five residents.
Speaker 16: Correct, Correct, And I just want to add first thing,
Speaker 16: deepest condolences to Krishanda Sierra Wynn who lost her life
Speaker 16: I made to a tragedy shooting and to say that
Speaker 16: this is not a threat to the public or community.
Speaker 16: If the individuals or individuals have not been found, then
Speaker 16: it's still a threat.
Speaker 5: As of right now, the best of my knowledge, they
Speaker 5: have not gotten the person who's responsible for killing her.
Speaker 3: Absolute tragedy. It really is so understand.
Speaker 16: That District five was located at A ten twelve lud Low, Okay,
Speaker 16: right during nineteen fifty seven to twenty eighteen. Now it
Speaker 16: was moved due to complaints about it was cramped and
Speaker 16: unhealthy conditions, which I could speak for because I worked
Speaker 16: at District five and it was cramped and it was
Speaker 16: an unhealthy So now it's occupied by the park board
Speaker 16: and been renovated.
Speaker 14: But now let's move further.
Speaker 16: Twenty eighteen to twenty twenty three, District five moves to
Speaker 16: fifty eight to thirty seven Hamilton Avenue.
Speaker 14: So you have them from.
Speaker 16: Ludlow that was close to right there to UC that
Speaker 16: needs the police as well. Move them a little further
Speaker 16: way up on Hamilton Avenue. Now they say this was
Speaker 16: a citywide redistricting plan that consolidated police district. Now listen
Speaker 16: to this, District five serve College Hill, mount Airy north side,
Speaker 16: Camp Washington, Whitten Hills, Spring Grove Village, Clifton, and the Cuff. Okay,
Speaker 16: it's gone now now District three had to take over
Speaker 16: College Hill, mount Airy north side of Camp Washington. District
Speaker 16: three is on Ferguson Avenue, Price Hill area deep west side.
Speaker 16: Now imagine the officer leaving that location trying to find
Speaker 16: the best route to get to College here Man Montana
Speaker 16: a wreck, Queen City's erect boot No is crowded, Glen
Speaker 16: Way is cloud crowded. So you're trying to get down
Speaker 16: to Montana and to work your way up Coraine and
Speaker 16: cross over to get to Hamilton.
Speaker 14: Imagine the time it takes.
Speaker 16: And now the officer gets there, does a police report,
Speaker 16: realizes hey, I got to do this report, found some
Speaker 16: property and do extra work and.
Speaker 14: Drive back to District three.
Speaker 16: And people wonder why these issues and police times are
Speaker 16: are are now getting less and less on.
Speaker 5: Time longer and longer. Yes, sir, well, that's explained that completely.
Speaker 5: And all the officers added in the world can't change
Speaker 5: that reality if they got to make that trip correct.
Speaker 5: So not only short officers, we got them like ten
Speaker 5: gazillion miles away from where something might have happened.
Speaker 16: Absolutely so when when we have people say what took
Speaker 16: you so long? Why do you get here? Trust me,
Speaker 16: officers want to get here. But what's interesting is data
Speaker 16: analysis and efficiency. According to the city manager stated that
Speaker 16: this shift represented the best permanent solution for the department
Speaker 16: moving forward, and the chief stated response time have been
Speaker 16: carefully analyzed and would not be neglatively affected.
Speaker 5: Come on blind, because you say it out loud doesn't
Speaker 5: make it true.
Speaker 16: Now look at it again right now, and from this leadership,
Speaker 16: this is what we see is a travesty on why
Speaker 16: our police cannot get to locations on time. You just
Speaker 16: do not remove an entire police district from a community
Speaker 16: and say safety is my number one priority.
Speaker 5: And he would know better than someone who did it
Speaker 5: for thirty years. That man Andre Ewing in studio speaking
Speaker 5: truth to power and putting some solid ideas. What he's saying,
Speaker 5: Andre Youwing on Facebook, you got a spot here in
Speaker 5: the morning show. Andre I love hearing from you, and
Speaker 5: you're always welcome to come in and chime in on
Speaker 5: your thoughts and comments.

Speaker 13: Lot of movement yet from the Brookville Ramp northbound seventy
Speaker 13: five cruiser working with an accident above Gabrath shock Ingram
Speaker 13: on fifty five KRS the talk station.
Speaker 5: It's a thirty here, fifty five KRCD talk station by
Speaker 5: Thomas wish you. We're in a very happy Friday and
Speaker 5: welcoming to the fifty five KRC Morning Show. Karen Wellington
Speaker 5: Foundation is the organization we're talking about. Welcome to the
Speaker 5: program of Lori Flake. It's a real pleasure to.
Speaker 3: Have you on.
Speaker 17: Hey, Brian, how are you today?
Speaker 5: I'm doing great, and we can all start out with
Speaker 5: everybody agrees with one thing in this crazy divided world.
Speaker 5: Cancer sucks, right, I mean, yes.
Speaker 17: We have a stronger word than that, but yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got to deal with the FCC.
Speaker 5: So I can't speak my clear mind on that one
Speaker 5: and put an exclamation point on it. But someone who
Speaker 5: did struggle with cancer and sadly we lost her what
Speaker 5: back in two thousand and seven, Karen Wellington. Of course,
Speaker 5: the name on the foundation, Karen Wellington Foundation dot org
Speaker 5: is where you find him. And you're going to want
Speaker 5: to find him. She had a really like positive way
Speaker 5: of viewing life in spite of the fact that she
Speaker 5: was diagnosed with breast cancer, which she dealt with what
Speaker 5: ten years.
Speaker 3: She didn't let it get her down, did she No?
Speaker 17: In fact, you know, so she was diagnosed when she
Speaker 17: was thirty, she fought it for ten years, and passed
Speaker 17: when she was forty, you know. And during that time
Speaker 17: she did not want to be known as the mom
Speaker 17: with cancer, the sick mom. So she did everything she
Speaker 17: could to get fun on her calendar. And that's why
Speaker 17: the foundation started in her name. That way, that we
Speaker 17: wanted to make sure that people kept fun on their
Speaker 17: calendar and in their lives and they continued to live
Speaker 17: even with that kind of a diagnosis. She always said
Speaker 17: that you can't always control the circumstances or the things
Speaker 17: that happen to you in your life, right, You can't
Speaker 17: control how you react to them, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 17: So, well it was her way of rect you know,
Speaker 17: controlling how she reacted to it was putting more fun
Speaker 17: out there and making it better.
Speaker 5: Great attitude about it. You know, I tell people I
Speaker 5: was diagnosed with lymphoma about I don't know six years ago,
Speaker 5: maybe a little bit longer, and you just play the
Speaker 5: hand that you're dealt. You know, some things are completely
Speaker 5: out of your hand. You have no control of them.
Speaker 5: You can wallow and sorrow and lament it, or you
Speaker 5: can go through the treatments, do what your doctor says
Speaker 5: to do, try to take some stock in yourself and
Speaker 5: improve your diet and health. But don't let it get
Speaker 5: you down to the point where you're just living in
Speaker 5: this state of sorrow and wallowing and misery. Because you
Speaker 5: don't have to be like that.
Speaker 14: You don't.
Speaker 17: But you know, everybody does handle their diagnosis differently, you know.
Speaker 17: But this is the cool part about our foundation is
Speaker 17: that sometimes people do get in that little dark place
Speaker 17: for a little bit, but we come in and put
Speaker 17: the script and we're like, nope, you still got a
Speaker 17: lot of fun left, and we're going to bring you
Speaker 17: some fun and remind you what you know you need
Speaker 17: what's important.
Speaker 5: In life, right, which is a great stepping soon to
Speaker 5: bring us to explain exactly how you inject fun in
Speaker 5: folks lives and how my listeners can well if they're
Speaker 5: familiar with someone. Everybody knows somebody who has cancer, most
Speaker 5: notably breast cancer an opportunity for that particular person struggling
Speaker 5: with a diagnosis to also have some fun. Karen or Laurie,
Speaker 5: what is it that you do with the donations that
Speaker 5: you received and the money that's raised, like, for example,
Speaker 5: at the five K we're going to be talking about shortly.
Speaker 17: Yeah, absolutely, So the money that we raised for the
Speaker 17: foundation or any of the donations we get, all go
Speaker 17: toward giving gifts of fun to women and families who
Speaker 17: are currently in breast cancer treatment. So, you know, we
Speaker 17: know that one hundred percent of patients have canceled plans
Speaker 17: with family and friends to focus on their treatment, right right,
Speaker 17: So we kind of yeah, it's just it's just what happened.
Speaker 17: You're so focused, so you it, you get like mentally,
Speaker 17: emotionally and physically exhausted from your treatment, you know, day
Speaker 17: in and day out for you know, the years that
Speaker 17: you're fighting. Anyway, so we come in and this is
Speaker 17: where you know, kit BF has meant made it our
Speaker 17: mission to flip the script and we give individuals a
Speaker 17: break by cancer from breast cancer by taking them out
Speaker 17: of doctors' offices, chemo chairs, and providing them with unforgettable
Speaker 17: experiences like spa days, concerts, Bengals games, hot air balloon, ride, skydiving,
Speaker 17: even getaways and vacations. Whatever is you know, going to
Speaker 17: make them feel like, uh, they're not a victim of
Speaker 17: cancer anymore and they want to continue the living, So
Speaker 17: continue to go forward and living.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's kind of like a Make a Wish Foundation
Speaker 5: kind of thing. You get you're jumping so fun and
Speaker 5: now do Like, for example, if someone nominates the person
Speaker 5: in their life that they know is struggling with breast cancer,
Speaker 5: there's a nomination for right there on the front page
Speaker 5: of the Karen Wellington Foundation dot org web page. Do
Speaker 5: they get to suggest what little bucket list item that
Speaker 5: the recipient might want, like, Oh, I know her she
Speaker 5: would love to go skydiving, or I know her she
Speaker 5: loves like going to King's Island or used to love
Speaker 5: it before she got the cancer diagnosis?
Speaker 3: Is there? Or do you just sort of randomly pick
Speaker 3: some kind of event to do.
Speaker 17: No, we really want to make sure that the fun
Speaker 17: that we give them is something that they consider fun. Right,
Speaker 17: So it's funny you bring that up because you can
Speaker 17: put on there when you make a nomination. You can't
Speaker 17: put on there. What you're suggested get the funny recip it,
Speaker 17: but we always make sure we check with the person
Speaker 17: when we you know, get the nomination in that that's
Speaker 17: really what they want. We've had people say, oh, she'd
Speaker 17: love a spot age, she goes, I don't like the
Speaker 17: spa you know, right, yeah, yeah, but we do we
Speaker 17: make sure that we we So what happens is once
Speaker 17: you make that nomination online, they send an email gets
Speaker 17: automatically sent to the nominee to fill out the form,
Speaker 17: and in that form it does ask you things like
Speaker 17: what what do you like? What are your interests? So
Speaker 17: we take then we take that form. Once we get
Speaker 17: it back, we kind of look at our inventory of
Speaker 17: what we have available and what they might like consider
Speaker 17: as fun and try to match them with that best
Speaker 17: experience and enhance it anyway we can.
Speaker 5: Well, I have a very very generous listening audience, and
Speaker 5: I'm definitely going to refer them to Karen Wellingtonfoundation dot org.
Speaker 5: And it's not just you know, donating cash. You can
Speaker 5: make a cash donation, but you'll also you allow people
Speaker 5: to donate like for example, they have a vacation home
Speaker 5: sort of maybe a weekend or a week vacation at
Speaker 5: property I see, Airline miles can be donated, tickets to
Speaker 5: events can be donated, that kind of thing. So it's
Speaker 5: really a whole host of things people can step up
Speaker 5: and donate.
Speaker 17: Yes, absolutely, and you know, we're able to reach more
Speaker 17: women every year because you know, these generous people step up,
Speaker 17: and we have a lot of people who will give
Speaker 17: us a week of their vacation home or their time
Speaker 17: share that they're not going to use, and we'll fill
Speaker 17: that with a family living with breast cancer. And the
Speaker 17: testimonies that we get back from these women are just
Speaker 17: amazing saying what.
Speaker 4: It does for them.
Speaker 17: And I'll have to mention too, Brian, I am a
Speaker 17: ten year breast cancer.
Speaker 5: Well, congratulations on that unbelievable accomplishment. And let us not
Speaker 5: overlook the fact that, man, I'm telling you, we haven't said,
Speaker 5: you know, complete absolute cur yet, but they have made amazing,
Speaker 5: amazing development treatment advances that really have done a lot
Speaker 5: to help women like well live. This isn't a really
Speaker 5: a death sentence anymore that it used to be.
Speaker 17: That's true, one hundred percent. And even women with stage
Speaker 17: four cancer, they have some great you know, you know,
Speaker 17: therapies and different things that if people are receptive to them,
Speaker 17: they're able to live their life more with a chronic
Speaker 17: disease versus it being a death sentence.
Speaker 1: Like you said, yeah, a lot of hope exists.
Speaker 5: Of course, feeding the hope your organization, putting a smile
Speaker 5: on people's faces as they go through this treatment. I
Speaker 5: do know what it's like to sit in that room
Speaker 5: with the drip bag and it's not fun. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 5: let's move on. Now you're here too. You really came
Speaker 5: to promote and finally getting to it. Are you the
Speaker 5: five K that's coming up? That's Voa Park and Westchester.
Speaker 5: Let my listeners know all about this one.
Speaker 17: Yeah, so it's on August sixteenth. And really, the really
Speaker 17: cool thing about this is it is recipients like me
Speaker 17: who were who are breast cancer survivors and got a
Speaker 17: gift to fund from the foundation, who came back together
Speaker 17: and said, you know, we want to give back to
Speaker 17: this foundation.
Speaker 4: What can we do?
Speaker 17: So honestly, this is the like, this is the heart
Speaker 17: of this event are the recipients and breast cancer survivors
Speaker 17: because these inspiring women take the lead on every detail
Speaker 17: to make this race unforgettable and to give back to
Speaker 17: the foundation that you know brought them so much joy
Speaker 17: and hope for brighter days right during their dark time,
Speaker 17: and to pay it forward for the next woman that
Speaker 17: faces this diagnosis. So we got together and decided we
Speaker 17: want to put on a five K for the foundation.
Speaker 17: There's money. So that's exactly what we do.
Speaker 10: And it is.
Speaker 3: Are we lost here?

Speaker 5: folks dealing with some of the more tragic aspects of life.
Speaker 5: Good work, good work anyhow, Not sure where to end
Speaker 5: the program, but since it is Friday, why don't we
Speaker 5: go back to something that could have been in the stack.
Speaker 3: Is stupid, but it's not.
Speaker 5: I was actually asking out loud the other day, sort
Speaker 5: of pondering the messaging. What is the message? What message
Speaker 5: are you trying to convey? When you throw a green
Speaker 5: sex toy onto a basketball court at a WNBA game.
Speaker 5: Now this has actually become a viral thing. Three separate incidents,
Speaker 5: same conduct. There's been a couple of arrests for people
Speaker 5: who actually have engaged in this questionable conduct. But here's
Speaker 5: one woman with an opinion, just like we all have.
Speaker 5: Sphincter's Shannon Ryan wrote an opinion for something called The Athletic.
Speaker 5: I believe it's an online website, or maybe it's a publication.
Speaker 5: Either way, op ed piece. MLBMLS and preseason NFL games
Speaker 5: are ongoing, but this, the marital ad chucking thing is
Speaker 5: only happening at the WNBA games. Interesting. Well, apparently this
Speaker 5: trend actually was seen during New England Patriots games back
Speaker 5: in twenty nineteen. I wasn't aware of that. This is
Speaker 5: the first time I've ever been made aware that this
Speaker 5: is a thing. These women are still the subject of
Speaker 5: an occasional punchline. While players are negotiating for higher salaries,
Speaker 5: they're fighting for their reputations to be respected as elite
Speaker 5: professional athletes. They have now had to be graceful and
Speaker 5: coolly navigate being unfairly thrust into an obscene moment. All right, hey,
Speaker 5: when they threw that onto the court, was it directed
Speaker 5: at eighty one particular player. Was it a message that
Speaker 5: was trying to be conveyed to one particular player? I
Speaker 5: don't think so. At least it isn't a parent anyway.
Speaker 5: She goes on to trace the history of women in
Speaker 5: athletics seriously. First centuries, athletics was a world for men,
Speaker 5: only a sanctum to prove their masculinity. Talking about into
Speaker 5: the twentieth century, women widely discouraged from encroaching on this space,
Speaker 5: as medical experts to cried exercise as detrimental to child
Speaker 5: bearing and their fragile emotional state. So then she fast
Speaker 5: forward to the mid forties, International Sports Committee leaders required
Speaker 5: female athletes to have femininity certificates in the humiliation that
Speaker 5: they went through proving that they were women. In fact,
Speaker 5: I think we've come full circle on that these days.
Speaker 5: Then she says, quote in these in these recent incidents,
Speaker 5: it's a stretch to argue, or yeah, it's a stretch
Speaker 5: to argue. Targeting the WNBA wasn't strategic and intentional. Making
Speaker 5: a sex toy the focal point of games in a
Speaker 5: large league that has perhaps the most openly gay and
Speaker 5: queer players doesn't seem like an accident either.
Speaker 3: All right, what does that.
Speaker 5: Sex toy Marior lad have to do with the gay
Speaker 5: and lesbian community? Are they made solely for the gay
Speaker 5: and lesbian community? I don't think so. This is not
Speaker 5: just a prank or an opportunistic viral moment, but another
Speaker 5: attempt to demean women in sports. Well, well, the last
Speaker 5: guy that did it did actually say out loud he
Speaker 5: did it because he saw viral video on the Internet
Speaker 5: of people doing it, which is exactly what I said
Speaker 5: the other day. There were Joe was a joke or
Speaker 5: maybe it's serious. Betting sites you can bet on the WNBA,
Speaker 5: and now I've been at least led to believe, and
Speaker 5: it wouldn't surprise me at all, considering all the different
Speaker 5: things you can bet on. The betting sites are now
Speaker 5: saying will there be ASEX toy thrown on any.
Speaker 3: Given NBA game?
Speaker 5: And I drew that parallel with the red and black
Speaker 5: options if you're playing the roulette wheel, yes or no.
Speaker 5: So there's that bet. I'm not sure what it pays.
Speaker 5: But then the more difficult challenge probably paying higher odds
Speaker 5: picking at which time in the game it'll land on
Speaker 5: the court. In other words, third quarter maybe you decide,
Speaker 5: But in no way, shape or form do I believe
Speaker 5: in any way that you can actually draw the conclusion
Speaker 5: that this is an attempt to demean women in sports
Speaker 5: generally speaking, most utterly, because you can't really make heads
Speaker 5: or tail out of what message is trying to be
Speaker 5: conveyed when someone throws it under the court, or maybe
Speaker 5: they're just continuing a viral trend they don't even know
Speaker 5: why they're doing it.
Speaker 3: I'm going to go with the latter.
