Speaker 4: About DRC the talk station. Happy Fridays, Well.
Speaker 2: Is a vacation. Listen, woo it must be Friday. Thank
Speaker 2: you Joe Checker for the sound by confirming what I
Speaker 2: already knew. Happy one to you all by the time.
Speaker 2: I'm right here, glad to be and uh looking forward
Speaker 2: to Tech Friday. But Dave Hatter, as I always do
Speaker 2: every Friday, wonderful segment. I think so anyway, and Dave
Speaker 2: knows what he's talking about. Today, we'll be talking about
Speaker 2: scammers targeting jobs, aftermath of the Bank of America outage
Speaker 2: and the most and least common four digit pins. A
Speaker 2: little lighter subject matter there anyhow, followed by the Dave
Speaker 2: Williams from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance. Several topics score with Dave.
Speaker 2: The government making improper payments not shocking anyone government owned
Speaker 2: internet networking in Minnesota. We've got one of those in
Speaker 2: the irs, and political vendettas Dave Williams from the Taxpayer
Speaker 2: Protection Alliance Online net protecting Taxpayers dot Or, followed by
Speaker 2: a spokesperson for Yes on Issue one, Chris Davey. I
Speaker 2: know the Republicans are a big no on one, and
Speaker 2: I've been reading it and rereading it and rereading it
Speaker 2: over and over and over again. I'm telling you, say
Speaker 2: what you want about Issue one, and I'm an know.
Speaker 2: It is just really really really really unbelievably complicated in
Speaker 2: terms of how they established this panel to basically jerrymander
Speaker 2: And you can call it whatever you want. It doesn't
Speaker 2: end jerrymandering. It just moves the division of these congressional
Speaker 2: districts to a different group of people. I mean, they're
Speaker 2: still going to chop it up. It seems largely designed
Speaker 2: to insure democratic victory in areas where they don't have
Speaker 2: much of a chance. And I know that's the argument
Speaker 2: about jerrymandering. Anyhow, we'll get here from Chris. I don't
Speaker 2: know the guy, and I just go ahead and read
Speaker 2: Issue one. See how much clarity you've got after it's
Speaker 2: all said and done. David Chudwin with a book The
Speaker 2: Magical or The Magical Decade and Memoir in History nineteen
Speaker 2: sixty five to nineteen seventy five. Ah yes, my year
Speaker 2: of my birth sixty five. Anyway, Physician and author David

Speaker 2: decade and how it altered the course of American history.
Speaker 2: Talk about some of the events and well bringing baby
Speaker 2: boomers a sense of nostalgia and pride, it says, and
Speaker 2: what should be a rather comical discussion. AJ Rice with
Speaker 2: his new book It's Not the White Album, It's the
Speaker 2: White Privileged Album, bringing racial harmony to very fine people
Speaker 2: on both sides, described as a comedy about race wokeness
Speaker 2: and the cancel culture in America, A tragedy about race
Speaker 2: wokeness and cancel culture in America, part satire, part journalism,
Speaker 2: part truth serum. This on the heels of his number
Speaker 2: one best seller, The Woking Dead, described as a sequel

Speaker 2: it out. What's going on with the aftermath of the hurricanes?
Speaker 2: Real quick? Here we got IRS now vowing to to
Speaker 2: infuse ten billion dollars into the well the impacted areas
Speaker 2: down to the southeast from delayed COVID money. Now FEMA
Speaker 2: Fritz own part we know is having is struggling with
Speaker 2: well running out of money. Eight days into the fiscal year,
Speaker 2: the federal government has already spent half or nearly half
Speaker 2: of the disaster REEF the relief that Congress is allocated
Speaker 2: to FEMA for the the entire calendar year. So remember
Speaker 2: the fiscal year October first, right, so mere eight days
Speaker 2: and I know it's the eleventh, but they've already blown
Speaker 2: through about half of all the FEMAL money for the
Speaker 2: entire year. What happens if there's another hurricane, as someone
Speaker 2: brought that to the attention, there's a tropical storm floating
Speaker 2: out there in the Atlantic which I don't know, maybe
Speaker 2: turned into a hurricane hit in the eastern side of
Speaker 2: Florida or maybe somewhere on the East coast. Any more
Speaker 2: money for that, No, not likely. They say. The rapid
Speaker 2: spending is likely to accelerate because states will start asking
Speaker 2: for more money. You know, projects will start and people
Speaker 2: are gonna want more aid and help. And they say
Speaker 2: it's going to force the Federal Emergency Management Agency FEMA
Speaker 2: to restrict spending until Congress approves more. According to the
Speaker 2: FEENAM administrator Dianne Criswell, I'm going to have to evalue
Speaker 2: how quickly we're burning the remaining dollars in the Disaster
Speaker 2: Relief Fund under spending restrictions. Apparently, FEMA cuts off funding
Speaker 2: for disaster related rebuilding projects, reserving the money for the
Speaker 2: life saving operations. Of course, that is critical. You want
Speaker 2: to save lives before we start rebuilding stuff. But this
Speaker 2: won't even allow for the rebuilding to begin because well
Speaker 2: there's just not enough money to deal with the life
Speaker 2: saving operations. Chriswell disclosed earlier this week, FEMA has spent
Speaker 2: nine billion dollars of the twenty billion Congress put in
Speaker 2: the program. First time FEMA has publicly stated how much
Speaker 2: money it has since the Hurricane Helene hit in south
Speaker 2: East couple of weeks ago, and a group of House
Speaker 2: Democrats urged Speaker Mike Johnson to immediately reconvene the chambers
Speaker 2: so they could pass the bill with a lot more
Speaker 2: FEMA spending. Johnson said, no, he's not going to do that.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's going to be a liability
Speaker 2: for the Republicans or not. But apparently there's other resources
Speaker 2: out there, including ten billion dollars in unspent COVID money.
Speaker 2: This is our federal government, and you know the other
Speaker 2: weird thing about FEMA. They got all up on their
Speaker 2: in defensive posture because yes, they did allocate a billion
Speaker 2: plus dollars to resettling illegal immigrants. Ah, but you know
Speaker 2: that's in a separate bucket. It's not the disaster bucket.
Speaker 2: That's not the bucket for Americans. That's the bucket we
Speaker 2: put that money in to resettle illegal immigrants. We can't
Speaker 2: go after that when we couldn't have used them for
Speaker 2: disaster relief because somebody put it in a bucket. I
Speaker 2: guess they don't understand the concept of fungibility of money
Speaker 2: over at FEMA. FEMA apparently has struggled to pay disaster
Speaker 2: costs in the past, previously imposed spending restrictions that you know,
Speaker 2: the director that mentioned that it's coming on ten occasions
Speaker 2: since two thousand and three, most recently in early August. Now,
Speaker 2: what FEMA does is typically pay seventy five percent of
Speaker 2: rebuilding costs, leaving the remaining twenty five percent to the
Speaker 2: states to spend. Restrictions are imposed often in August because
Speaker 2: the disaster relief funds for the entire calendar year start
Speaker 2: running low as we approach the new fiscal year. Right,
Speaker 2: they said, If FEMA starts restricting spending now in December
Speaker 2: or even sooner, which is what Chriswell suspected, it'd be
Speaker 2: the earliest time of year that FEMA has ever taken action,
Speaker 2: which could halt rebuilding projects for months. They say. FEMA
Speaker 2: most recently opposed these restrictions. They're called immediate Needs funding
Speaker 2: back in early August, temporary halting nine billion dollars a
Speaker 2: plan to give state through rebuilding projects. As part of
Speaker 2: the reason FEMA spent so much money this fiscal year,
Speaker 2: it's lifted the spending restrictions, or rather it lifted them
Speaker 2: in August first, back when Congress replenished the Disaster Fund,
Speaker 2: so it lifted its own spending restrictions, only to apparently
Speaker 2: impose some new spending restrictions because they well spend all
Speaker 2: the money after loosening the spending restrictions. Crystal clear, isn't
Speaker 2: it anyway? But I just it just blows my mind.
Speaker 2: You know, there's all this money parked in different buckets
Speaker 2: in government, unspent money, and some of this unspent money
Speaker 2: has been parked in these different buckets for projects that
Speaker 2: you know it was allocated for decade ago or even
Speaker 2: more in some cases. I mean, I don't want anybody
Speaker 2: playing fast and loose with the taxpayer dollars. But when
Speaker 2: you have an immediate need and the need that generated
Speaker 2: the bucket of cash for the other projects, when that
Speaker 2: need no longer exists, they're still sitting on these massive
Speaker 2: buckets of cash, but they claim they can't use it
Speaker 2: to address immediate needs because well it's not in the
Speaker 2: right bucket. Maybe congressional action is needed. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I just know people are struggling and suffering, and it
Speaker 2: maybe needlessly five and three seven nine fifty five hundred,
Speaker 2: eight hundred eighty two to three taco with pound five
Speaker 2: fifty on at and T funds love to hear from
Speaker 2: you because something else you'd like to talk about. That's
Speaker 2: a okay with me, particularly on Friday, but that's the case,
Speaker 2: would be pretty much any single day of the week.
Speaker 2: I'll be right back hanging around. Only a few lots, Scott,
Speaker 2: Thanks buddy. Jay Ratler put an exclamation point on it.
Speaker 2: Love to reports Democrats are pulling their hair out and
Speaker 2: worrying concern over Kamala Harris dropping polling numbers as people
Speaker 2: come to realize she is in an empty suit and
Speaker 2: has nothing to say on anything excepted backpedal away from
Speaker 2: her prior positions. Anyhow, got more on that coming up
Speaker 2: later and including you know, the mainstream media is starting
Speaker 2: to actually, you know, do its job and ask legitimate questions.
Speaker 2: You see interesting comments from the current president, Joe Biden.
Speaker 2: Sometimes we forget that we still have Joe Biden as president.
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris is trying to go in and step in
Speaker 2: and become president while she's still a vice president. Joe
Speaker 2: Biden is still alive. I don't know about well, but
Speaker 2: still alive. And with regard to the hurricane, I just
Speaker 2: noted an interesting fact on this because this is connected
Speaker 2: the performance in the hurricane. One in a thousand year
Speaker 2: rainfall event is what they're saying down in Florida. This
Speaker 2: is insanity. Saint Petersburg had eighteen plus inches of rain
Speaker 2: in a twenty four hour period. They got five more
Speaker 2: than five inches in one single hour from eight pm
Speaker 2: to nine pm, and proceeded to get nine inches in
Speaker 2: the next three hours. Anyway, collectively, a one in a
Speaker 2: thousand year rainfall event. That is an amazing amount of
Speaker 2: money or water, so ins far as eight is concerned,
Speaker 2: and here's where one of the little, you know, kind
Speaker 2: of problems Harris is facing. It seems as Joe Biden
Speaker 2: is a little pissed off that he got squad. He's out,
Speaker 2: He's doing no services or benefits whatsoever. Because we have
Speaker 2: got Florida Governor Ron de Santis, you know, hitting Vice
Speaker 2: President Kamala Harris over the head for trying to inject
Speaker 2: herself into the process. And there was at that point
Speaker 2: that people were making and the Democrats are trying to
Speaker 2: make hay out of it that the Florida governor declined
Speaker 2: to take a call from Kamala Harris regarded the hurricane response.
Speaker 2: For his part, Desanta said yesterday that she has no
Speaker 2: role in the process and pointed out that she'd never
Speaker 2: attempted to call him during any other previous storms. Because
Speaker 2: I am working with the President of the United States,
Speaker 2: I'm working with the director of FEMA. We've been doing
Speaker 2: this now NonStop for over two weeks. And although I've
Speaker 2: worked well with the President, she's never called Florida. She
Speaker 2: has never offered any support. I don't have any time
Speaker 2: for those games. I don't care about her campaign. Obviously,
Speaker 2: I'm not a supporter of hers. But she's not. She
Speaker 2: has no role in this process, and so I'm working
Speaker 2: with the people I need to be working with. That
Speaker 2: on the heels of Wednesday's comment by President Biden regarding
Speaker 2: whether the governor's responsibility to take the Vice president's calls
Speaker 2: quote Joe Biden again not doing Kamala Harris any favors.
Speaker 2: All I can tell you is I've talked to Governor
Speaker 2: de Santas. He's been very gracious. He thanked me for
Speaker 2: all we've done. He knows what we're doing, and I
Speaker 2: think that's important nice. Biden told both the Santas and
Speaker 2: Tampa Mayor Jane Castro to, in his words, call him
Speaker 2: directly if they need any other support. And DeSantis also
Speaker 2: noted earlier this week that all his federal requests for
Speaker 2: more support have been answered, so the Satas makes a
Speaker 2: valid poil. I don't need Kamala Harris in this process.
Speaker 2: It's all being covered quite nicely. Harris told reporters early
Speaker 2: in the week. People are in desperate need to support
Speaker 2: right now, and playing political games of this moment in
Speaker 2: these crisis situations, these are the height of emergency situation.
Speaker 2: It's utterly irresponsible and it's selfish, really, Biden referring to
Speaker 2: the Florida governor as cooperative. Florida governor referring to Biden
Speaker 2: and the administration as being cooperative. No, we don't need
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris in the equation, and more campaign backfedaling over
Speaker 2: on the vice presidential side of the ticket, Minnesota Governor
Speaker 2: Tim Wallas, the vice presidential candidate, said earlier during a
Speaker 2: campaign fundraiser just on Tuesday, quote, I think all of
Speaker 2: us know the electoral College needs to go. We need
Speaker 2: a minissioner popular vote. How definitive is that statement? I
Speaker 2: think quite the electoral college needs to go. We need
Speaker 2: a national popular vote. Now, Kamala Harris, way back in
Speaker 2: the day when she was running for president, said she
Speaker 2: was open to the idea of getting rid of the
Speaker 2: electoral college, but and paign officials going, no, we're not
Speaker 2: going that way. Pressed on the issue Walt's comments about
Speaker 2: the electoral college needs to go, we need a national
Speaker 2: popular vote, they said that's not an official position of
Speaker 2: the Harris campaign. Now, Fox News reached out to him
Speaker 2: and asked him for an explanation about this. They didn't respond,
Speaker 2: but they did issue a statement only a certain News
Speaker 2: outlets like CNN USA today, which I thought was interesting,
Speaker 2: But they did issue a statement suggesting waltz remarks were
Speaker 2: intended to express support for the electoral college process. Did
Speaker 2: you hear me? Just read that support for the electoral college,
Speaker 2: which he said, needs to go. We need a national
Speaker 2: popular vote. I'm going to keep repeating that because here's
Speaker 2: their statement walking away from some comedy made definitively just
Speaker 2: a couple of days ago. Governor Waltz believes that every
Speaker 2: vote matters in the electoral college, and he is onted
Speaker 2: to be traveling the country in the battleground states working
Speaker 2: to earn the support of the Harriswalds tickets. He was
Speaker 2: commenting to a crowd of strong supporters about how the
Speaker 2: campaign is built to win two hundred and seventy electoral votes,
Speaker 2: and he was thanking them for the support that is
Speaker 2: helping fund those efforts. Is that what he was Sam,
Speaker 2: I don't get that from the electoral college needs to go,
Speaker 2: we need a national popular vote.
Speaker 5: Does that sound like.
Speaker 2: You can't unring that bell? For his part, Jason Snee,
Speaker 2: the executive director of the House Elections Project Action, a
Speaker 2: nonprofit that advocates in favor of retaining the Electoral College
Speaker 2: pointed out the obvious. He said, the quiet part out loud.
Speaker 2: Democrat leaders don't think they should have to campaign in
Speaker 2: places like Michigan and North Carolina. They went California and
Speaker 2: New York to decide every election. There's a pattern here.
Speaker 2: Democrats claim to love democracy, then set their sights on
Speaker 2: any institution that's answering them in political power, the Supreme Court,
Speaker 2: the Senate filibuster, and the Electoral College. Five twenty five,
Speaker 2: fifty five car see de talk station walking around trying
Speaker 2: to unring bells. That's all they've been doing, and it's
Speaker 2: starting to show stick around. I got more to talk

Speaker 2: then of course we'll get to the stack. It's stupid.

Speaker 2: Thirty two year old woman in custody after Kentucky State
Speaker 2: Police found her mom's dismembered body lying behind there Robertson
Speaker 2: County home on Wednesday, police said, and Release troopers called
Speaker 2: to the home on Briarley Road, Ridge Road rather before
Speaker 2: twelve thirty pm. Dispatchers received a call regarding the dead
Speaker 2: body man who arrived to work on Trudy fields properties,
Speaker 2: said Field didn't answer the door when it was knocked on.
Speaker 2: When he walked around to the back home to locate Fields,
Speaker 2: he told dispatchers that's when he found a pile of
Speaker 2: hair that appeared to be feeling, along with the blood
Speaker 2: stained mattresses and drag marks in the grass. Man told
Speaker 2: dispatches he followed the drag marks in the backyard where
Speaker 2: he found what he believed to be fields dismember body
Speaker 2: in the grass. When troopers got there, they found the
Speaker 2: body near the blood stained mattress. Also witnessed a blood
Speaker 2: stained stick and another mattress on the back porch. Man
Speaker 2: said he told police that he'd last seen her one
Speaker 2: day earlier when she accompanied them on her property. Said
Speaker 2: Fields and her daughter, thirty year old Tori Leanna Fields,
Speaker 2: were the only people at home and noted that Torrilliana
Speaker 2: was casting spell This is in quotes Torrellianna was casting
Speaker 2: spells on them and being confrontational. Kentucky Response team called
Speaker 2: her the scene, search warrants obtained they entered. The police
Speaker 2: said Torrillana refused to eggs and was removed from the
Speaker 2: home after multiple uses of tear gas. Police also said
Speaker 2: she appeared to have blood on her face, hands, and clothes. Hmm,
Speaker 2: what coincidence. Search of the home found multiple body parts
Speaker 2: cooked inside a stainless steel pot in the oven. One
Speaker 2: of the mattresses near Field's body also in multiple body
Speaker 2: parts and organs on it Toorliana. Fields charged obviously with
Speaker 2: instructing governmental operations, tampering with physical evidence, and abuse of
Speaker 2: a corpse. The police said that more charges maybe file
Speaker 2: pending and investigation currently held at the Bourbon County Detention Center.
Speaker 2: This is a taste of Joe, Jo you suspecting some
Speaker 2: sort of dammer like activity in that one. Joe, just
Speaker 2: like mom used to make okay five thirty five fifty
Speaker 2: five Krstoks says, let's move to the stack of stupid,
Speaker 2: shall we We'll do that when we get back. Yes,
Speaker 2: can you play John the Fisherman, preceded and almost immedial
Speaker 2: by an instant message from Jeff, who said I want
Speaker 2: to be a fisherman. Nice timing, Jeff, All right, that
Speaker 2: is stupid. I always give credit to Joe Strecker for
Speaker 2: finding the most FCC difficult story to read. Joe Strecker,
Speaker 2: it is the five o'clock. Our FCC rules are slightly
Speaker 2: loosened when you're outside of the primary broadcasting hours. However,
Speaker 2: no profanities can be used, and I will try to
Speaker 2: be delicate gird your loin's most notably guys, but this
Speaker 2: is probably going to cause problems for many people, so
Speaker 2: you have been warned. Trigger warning. We go to Jingha,
Speaker 2: East China, specifically the Jangsu province, which means I'm skeptical
Speaker 2: about the authenticity of this. Although the Global Times was
Speaker 2: merely re reporting an article which was reported in the
Speaker 2: Vietnam News, I don't know that the Vietnam News is
Speaker 2: a trusted news source. So there's my caveats as I
Speaker 2: delicately approached the subject matter anyway. So we're in Jingha,
Speaker 2: Each China, Jingsu province, where a man inserted a twenty
Speaker 2: centimeter long eel into his rectum in hope raising of
Speaker 2: relieving constipation, but it almost killed him. Described as a
Speaker 2: folk remedy. Folk remedy claims that an eel can help well,
Speaker 2: I guess with botwel movements, but instead of carrying the constipation,
Speaker 2: this eel went from the man's rectum to the colon,
Speaker 2: then bit through it, entering into his abdomen. Went to
Speaker 2: the hospital after him during pain for a day because
Speaker 2: he was too shy to see the doctor. Doctor operated
Speaker 2: on him. The eel described as still alive when it
Speaker 2: was removed during the operation. Also in this article, he's
Speaker 2: not the only victim. This's so called folk remedy, which
Speaker 2: words are in quotes every time it's mentioned. Fifty year
Speaker 2: old man from South China's Guangdong Province did the same
Speaker 2: thing with a forty centimeter long eel in June twenty twenty,
Speaker 2: and on well, in twenty twenty, an African carp was
Speaker 2: found in the stomach of a young man in Guangdong
Speaker 2: who claimed the fish, in his words, slid into close
Speaker 2: quote his rectum when he accidentally sat on it. No,
Speaker 2: they didn't report that the eel's name was Lemmywinks Joe.
Speaker 2: For you South Park fans out there, at least you
Speaker 2: get it. Registered sex offender arrested at Woodside Wednesday after
Speaker 2: allegedly exposing himself making threats. This according to released by
Speaker 2: the sam Mateo County Sheriff's Office. They responded around quarter
Speaker 2: to nine pm to a home in Martin Lane after
Speaker 2: reports of a man naked threatening residences corn of Sheriff's office.
Speaker 2: The man who parked his car outside the residence and
Speaker 2: he was naked. Resident thought the man was a delivery driver,
Speaker 2: approached him, and that's when the suspect allegedly exposed himself
Speaker 2: and began yelling profanities as his tradition. A short time later,
Speaker 2: the president again approached the suspects vehicle. The suspect allegedly
Speaker 2: threatened to shoot the resident. Question, if a car with
Speaker 2: a naked guy was in your neighborhood, you approached him
Speaker 2: thinking he was a delivery driver, or maybe just didn't
Speaker 2: ask why he's parked in the neighborhood and he was naked?
Speaker 2: Would you go back and approach him again? Right? No,
Speaker 2: thanks dad. Mountain View man Bruce McKenny, sixty five years old,
Speaker 2: was arrested. He's a registered sex offender. He's booked into
Speaker 2: the McGuire Correctional Facility on suspicion of indecent exposure and
Speaker 2: making criminal threats. Alrighty, I don't think it's going to
Speaker 2: slide downward any further. Their jum loving a man loving
Speaker 2: in Missouri or Montana rather accused the committing burglary while naked.
Speaker 2: Online court records show that Lloyd E. Tabor the third,
Speaker 2: making grandpa and his father happy. I'm sure kind of
Speaker 2: here for a five jury for a five day trial
Speaker 2: beginning in January of next year, charged with first and
Speaker 2: second degree burglary. The lack Lead County Sheriff's Office said
Speaker 2: Tabor broke into a garage on Lake Shore Drive. When
Speaker 2: the victim interrupted the burglary and called nine to one one.
Speaker 2: Taber got away with clothes and personal items fled the
Speaker 2: scene on a stolen bicycle. A citizen then reported seeing
Speaker 2: Tabor take a chainsaw out of his shed a few
Speaker 2: hours later, and the police were able to arrest him.
Speaker 1: Why are you doing that?
Speaker 2: Tabor was naked and in possession of the chainsaw. What
Speaker 2: he was arrested? You know, I always puzzle over there.
Speaker 2: You're to figure out why anybody asking him? Okay, you're
Speaker 2: breaking and you're stealing stuff. You get the idea, maybe
Speaker 2: you've got a drug habit or whatever. What's the deal
Speaker 2: about being naked when you're doing it. Joe wants to
Speaker 2: know where he's going to hide the chainsaw. Going back
Speaker 2: to the first article, A little, a little large for
Speaker 2: the prison perse Joe, I imagine five five, forty five,
Speaker 2: fifty five care set talk stations stick around. A few
Speaker 2: more left after I mentioned my friends at Zimmer Heating
Speaker 2: and air Conditioning the best folks around to take care
Speaker 2: of your HVAC needs. Yeah, and it's the cool Carrier
Speaker 2: come for rebates still going on? It's I guess you
Speaker 2: know you're still running your air conditioning. You may discover
Speaker 2: that it goes belly up on you, and of course
Speaker 2: Zimmer can call them to repair. And of course it's
Speaker 2: better to repair than replace if it's the right thing
Speaker 2: to do. But you know, oftentimes the repair costs can
Speaker 2: meet or exceed the cost of getting a new unit.
Speaker 2: What's the point on that. Get a brand new Carrier
Speaker 2: air conditioning unit the folks that invented air conditioning and
Speaker 2: take advantage of the cool care your comfort rebate twenty
Speaker 2: one hundred dollars savings when you're working with Zimmer to
Speaker 2: get this new Carrier air conditioning unit. They're the leaders
Speaker 2: in twenty four hour days, seven day a week emergency service,
Speaker 2: so it's easy to schedule an appointment, get in touch
Speaker 2: with them, find out more about the services they offer,
Speaker 2: like for example, the annual maintenance programs A great idea.
Speaker 2: Just get on the maintenance program. They'll make sure everything's
Speaker 2: running in good order each and every year. Just one
Speaker 2: of the options you got with Zimmer. Wonderful what they do.
Speaker 2: A plus the BBB fo them online schedule the appointment
Speaker 2: at the website go Zimmer dot com. That's go Zimmer

Speaker 6: This is fifty five karc an iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 8: Thank your.
Speaker 2: Five forty nine fifty five KRCD talk station. Go to
Speaker 2: the stack. Is stupid by first over to the phones,
Speaker 2: because I always enjoy talking to folks calling in five one, three, seven,
Speaker 2: four nine fifty five hundred eight hundred eight two three
Speaker 2: talk Kevin, Welcome to the program, and happy Friday to you, sir.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Man Brian, Happy Friday, thank you, sir.
Speaker 9: Quick comment about the.
Speaker 8: Guy with the chainsaw. Yeah, I wonder if it has
Speaker 8: a pet eel.
Speaker 2: Ah yeah, and if he's from the Xiangdong province of China. Excellent.
Speaker 2: Thank you for the additional levity cabin. It's always welcome
Speaker 2: here in the morning show, particularly on a Friday, but
Speaker 2: at all times, most notably in the wellby global crises.
Speaker 2: We are collectively facing a bit of a psychological burden
Speaker 2: and a bit depressing for most. That's why I like
Speaker 2: doing The stack is stupid, and that's why I appreciate
Speaker 2: a little levity, most notably on a Friday. Anyway back
Speaker 2: gard to the stack is stupid. Uh man is dead
Speaker 2: after stepping in front of an oncoming semi truck naked.
Speaker 2: That pretty much sums it up. Four m doing that
Speaker 2: northbound Highway ninety nine your McKinley Avenue in Fresno, California.
Speaker 2: Local news ABC thirty said police first received recalls reporting
Speaker 2: a naked guy walking along Highway ninety nine, and a
Speaker 2: short time later more calls came in reporting he had
Speaker 2: been hit by a car. Actually a semi big difference
Speaker 2: of this got there. They determined the man had walked
Speaker 2: directly into the path of the moving semi. The truck
Speaker 2: driver then swerved in an attempt to avoid it, but
Speaker 2: it was unsuccessful and the man died.
Speaker 6: Dear what the hell.
Speaker 2: Truck driver, for his part, stayed there, cooperated with officers,
Speaker 2: who determined that drugs and alcohol were not factors for
Speaker 2: the truck driver. Not known if naked guy was intoxicated
Speaker 2: or under the influence of drugs. But if I was
Speaker 2: a betting man, I'm gonna go with a big, strong yay.
Speaker 2: Considering it's Tech Friday, why not? What a growing problem
Speaker 2: this has become a couple of weeks ago, eighteen year
Speaker 2: old Bierrie Thompson settling into freshman year of college when
Speaker 2: she started getting text from her friends back home in
Speaker 2: Pensacola that fake nude photos of girls and young women
Speaker 2: from several local high schools have been found on the
Speaker 2: phone of a young guy. They knew an altered photo
Speaker 2: of this young lady was in there. It was a
Speaker 2: picture of the teen and her friend at the beach
Speaker 2: that she had posted to her social media account when
Speaker 2: she was sixteen years old. The picture, of course altered
Speaker 2: to remove the girl's bathing suit, showing them appearing nude.
Speaker 2: Picture of the same one she had posted except for
Speaker 2: the nudity, and although she knew it had been digitally altered,
Speaker 2: she was obviously shocked and horrified about how real it looks.
Speaker 2: Once I saw the picture as just really confusing, how
Speaker 2: it was so realistic, and I was like, why why
Speaker 2: is there a picture of me? I don't talk to
Speaker 2: this guy. I neither is my friend who was just overwhelming.
Speaker 2: I didn't know, I didn't know what to feel, but
Speaker 2: she wanted to report it. Young man eighteen year old
Speaker 2: student of Washington High School, acord to Pensacol police who
Speaker 2: are investigating the fake nude pictures. His name is public record,
Speaker 2: but the news reports aren't including it because he hasn't
Speaker 2: yet been charged. According to police reports bought by parents
Speaker 2: victims with both the Escambia Sheriff's Office and pens Called police,
Speaker 2: the eighteen year old took pictures of the girls that
Speaker 2: the girls had posted on their social media accounts and
Speaker 2: use an app that taps into AI technology to undress
Speaker 2: them and create authentic looking new images. Swirling questions about
Speaker 2: whether the law has been able to keep up with technology.
Speaker 2: I guess proving something as fake is really going to
Speaker 2: be a problem, and it's going to be the default
Speaker 2: response for everybody, Right, Joe, let me pose a question
Speaker 2: to you. Didty is under some real problems? Apparently? There
Speaker 2: are multiple videos swirling around about Ditty's white parties where
Speaker 2: a lot of sex was being had and a lot
Speaker 2: of potentially A list stars were implicated. Young people allegedly
Speaker 2: involved in that as well. Any question whether Didty's defense
Speaker 2: team will argue that the images are fake. AI created
Speaker 2: a smidge. Yeah, I think that's probably the case. You
Speaker 2: can count on that into the future. Tech We go
Speaker 2: to Texas. October third, police respond to a nine to
Speaker 2: one one called but a suspicious person in an under
Speaker 2: construction home and garden Ridge. When they got their deputies
Speaker 2: from the Comol County Sheriff's office maybe what they described
Speaker 2: as a disturbing discovery, year old Jennifer Massey, the art
Speaker 2: teacher at Davenport High School, was inside this under construction
Speaker 2: home with a male juvenile student having sex. Charged with
Speaker 2: improper relationship between an educator and a student's second degree felony,
Speaker 2: being held in the Como County jail, facing up the
Speaker 2: twenty years in prison and a ten thousand dollars fine.
Speaker 2: School district for rich part pledge full cooperation with law
Speaker 2: enforcement and obviously issued these typical from the legal department
Speaker 2: statement addressing the issue. Charged with having improper relationship with
Speaker 2: a student, she was placed on administrative leave and will
Speaker 2: not be returning to the Davenport High School. Shocking absolutely
Speaker 2: no one accurt to recent reports, there were over five
Speaker 2: hundred reported cases of teacher Missconnic between twenty fourteen and
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen, with nearly one in ten students experiencing some
Speaker 2: form of sexual misconduct by an educator. They say factors
Speaker 2: contributing to the alarming trend upward the increase in reporting awareness,
Speaker 2: social media facilitating inappropriate interactions, breakdown and teach your student boundaries,
Speaker 2: inadequate screening and hiring practices, and insufficient teacher training on
Speaker 2: ethics and boundaries. How much training do you need to
Speaker 2: be when you're an adult educator and you are teaching
Speaker 2: people who are miners in your classroom, that is a
Speaker 2: no no to have sex with them. I mean it
Speaker 2: shows like, Oh, I'm so glad I took that class right,
Speaker 2: Get off the twelve year old What fifty five KRC
Speaker 2: the talk station World's Falling Apart Teck Friday with Dave
Speaker 2: Hatter six point thirty The Harris Campaign Falling Apart, Barack
Speaker 2: Obama to the Rescue?

Speaker 10: By the time I was wishing everyone a very happy Friday.
Speaker 10: Finding everyone early voting is not just for Democrats anymore.
Speaker 10: Get out and vote.
Speaker 2: Uh five eight two to three Talk pound Fight fifty
Speaker 2: on AT and T phones. Coming up bottom of our
Speaker 2: Tech Friday with Dave Hatter and fast forward one hour
Speaker 2: from now Dave Wins from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance. Got
Speaker 2: quite a few topics to talk with both of those guys.
Speaker 2: Chris Davey, he is the or a spokesperson for Yes
Speaker 2: on Issue one here in Ohio. I'm a no on
Speaker 2: that one for multiple multitude of reasons. Chris is going
Speaker 2: to try to rehabilitate it and convince me that I'm
Speaker 2: wrong on it. I'm against it for no other reason.
Speaker 2: It is unblanking, believably complicated, and complication leads to concerns.
Speaker 2: And if you look at the endorsement, Joe Strecker says,
Speaker 2: look at the endorsements and you'll figure out quickly who
Speaker 2: U who likes it and who doesn't. And the funding
Speaker 2: mechanism from you know, global and national efforts outside the
Speaker 2: state of Ohio. I just want to make a Shenanigan's
Speaker 2: declaration on that. Anyway, Crystal handle it at seven forty
Speaker 2: happy to be having them on the morning show. David
Speaker 2: Chudwin with the book The Magical Decade, a memoir history
Speaker 2: nineteen sixty five to seventy five, and finally aj Rice
Speaker 2: with the comical book The White Privilege Album, bringing racial
Speaker 2: harmony to very fine people on both sides. It's a
Speaker 2: comic effort. Real quick, here for a dive into some
Speaker 2: other topic. I got Bill on the phone, Bill, Happy
Speaker 2: Friday to you. Thanks for calling in this morning.
Speaker 11: Hey, good to hear from you. Just make it real quick.
Speaker 11: I lived, born and raised in Ohio, all in a
Speaker 11: really great neighborhoods Blue, ash kin Wood, Montgomery.
Speaker 12: Pleasant Ridge.
Speaker 11: And one thing that came in there, I'm just make
Speaker 11: it real quick, the Section eight. When that come in
Speaker 11: the play, it killed the neighborhood. Because I used to
Speaker 11: work for hud and I would go into these buildings,
Speaker 11: nice places.
Speaker 12: They left these Section eight people.
Speaker 11: Then when they get kicked out, they kick the walls in,
Speaker 11: They do every kind of mischief, I mean, bad things
Speaker 11: they can when they're leaving the building. Okay, getting to
Speaker 11: my point is, okay, you got these illegals in here,
Speaker 11: and then Trump gets in there and start trouting them up.
Speaker 11: They're going to act just like Section eight people. They're
Speaker 11: going to try to do as much damage as they
Speaker 11: can before they leave here. And that's coming.
Speaker 12: I see it. If coming right, What do you.
Speaker 2: Think, man, I think it is certainly within the realm
Speaker 2: of possibility.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 2: I haven't thought along those lines so much, although you know,
Speaker 2: when you don't own something and you don't have to
Speaker 2: pay for something, you tend not to really take care
Speaker 2: of it. It's been a well documented phenomena, documented phenomena,
Speaker 2: but beyond that, I'm more worried about terra cells and
Speaker 2: evil doers that have come into our country for the
Speaker 2: purpose of conducting evil conduct and attacking us. Whether it's
Speaker 2: a terra cell or just some radical left wing or
Speaker 2: any wing organization. That's the kind of thing that bothers me.
Speaker 2: Since we were incapable of adding the millions of people
Speaker 2: who came in through our border over the past well
Speaker 2: it's been going on longer than four years, but I
Speaker 2: ernest the last several years, so that to me represents
Speaker 2: a bigger problem. And yeah, if you say you're going
Speaker 2: to come after them, they're going to take every effort
Speaker 2: to hide, run, and maybe in fact go ahead with
Speaker 2: their nefarious activities. All we can do is speculate at
Speaker 2: this point. But the fact that it's a part of
Speaker 2: a discussion, a regular discussion, is an illustration of why
Speaker 2: the border security and border is a prominent, if not
Speaker 2: number one issue in America. And of course with that,
Speaker 2: I can pivot it over to this Barack Obama coming
Speaker 2: out yesterday just in support of Kamala Harris. Where has
Speaker 2: he been? I guess because of her flailing numbers and
Speaker 2: real quick here just a summary. Kimbery Strassel has got
Speaker 2: an excellent op ed. You can read the whole thing.
Speaker 2: Empress come all as new clothes. But she starts pointing
Speaker 2: out that Democrats are kind of in a bit of
Speaker 2: a panic mode right now. Lots of headlines about making
Speaker 2: Mi stay mistakes she did in twenty nineteen. Democrats are anxious,
Speaker 2: struggling to break through to the working class.
Speaker 11: On and on and on.
Speaker 2: Just pray to weeks ago. She was the standard bearer
Speaker 2: of joy, freedom, opportunity and juggernaut who exudes quiet powerness,
Speaker 2: humiliates her opponents, and delivers a debate knockdown and not
Speaker 2: working her problem Shrites like mister Biden's come from finally
Speaker 2: being seen, and most notably the thing that I'm pivoting
Speaker 2: on is her comment on the view, which we've already
Speaker 2: talked about. Would you have done something differently than president
Speaker 2: to Biden? There is not a thing that comes to mind,
Speaker 2: was her response. More of the same. That's a pretty
Speaker 2: good admission. I wouldn't change a thing. In other words,
Speaker 2: what Joe Biden did was what I would do. I
Speaker 2: liked what he did. I wouldn't change it. If I
Speaker 2: could roll back time fast forwarding a little bit in
Speaker 2: the op ed already the excuses for her faltering poll
Speaker 2: numbers are trickling in. She faces male bias, Green candidate
Speaker 2: Stein is a spoiler, Biden isn't being helpful. Voters just
Speaker 2: want to acknowledge the good economic times. Kimberly observes, the
Speaker 2: question is how long it takes for Democrats and the
Speaker 2: media to finally acknowledge that the problem isn't a doddering
Speaker 2: president or bad messaging or mean interviewers or third parties
Speaker 2: or don voters. The problem is bad policies engineered by
Speaker 2: Biden and the progressive left, doubled down on by Harrison,
Speaker 2: and rejected by voters. Think about it. Twenty eight percent
Speaker 2: of Americans think the country's on the right track. Survey
Speaker 2: confirms what is making them unhappy? Are you ready? Insane? Spending,
Speaker 2: inflation of the national debt, and open border policy, immigration problems,
Speaker 2: they defund the police movement, which has led to an
Speaker 2: increase in crime, global disorder, are national security concerns globally,
Speaker 2: and radical cultural shifts like men in women's sports, And
Speaker 2: that's where I want to pause. Those are the issues
Speaker 2: that impact each and every American. Like do you think
Speaker 2: black men are in favor of women in men in
Speaker 2: women's sports? If I was a betting man, I'm generally not,
Speaker 2: I would probably go no. I think they tend to
Speaker 2: be more traditionalist when it comes to, you know, traditional
Speaker 2: male role models. So pivot over to Barack Obama desperately
Speaker 2: trying to help Kamala Harris. So he's in Pittsburgh yesterday
Speaker 2: during a pre campaign rally stop Obama said he had
Speaker 2: noticed the difference in the excitement surrounding Kamala Harris, particularly
Speaker 2: among African Americans. Quote, we have not seen the same
Speaker 2: kind of energy and turnout in all corners of our
Speaker 2: neighborhoods and community as we saw when I Barack Obama
Speaker 2: was running. He went on, Now, I also want to
Speaker 2: say that that seems to be more pronounced with the brothers.
Speaker 2: So if you don't mind, just for a second, I
Speaker 2: got to speak to y'all and say that when you
Speaker 2: have a choice that is this clean, what on one hand,
Speaker 2: you have somebody who grew up like you. He's referring
Speaker 2: to Kamala Harris, by the way, obviously not Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: So he's speaking particularly and focused on if you don't mind,
Speaker 2: black men, Kamala grew up like you, went to college
Speaker 2: with you, understands the struggles and the pain and joy
Speaker 2: that comes from those experiences. Yeah, not necessarily a middle
Speaker 2: class upbringing. See the neighborhood. She grew up in the
Speaker 2: college education. I don't know how many college black men
Speaker 2: have college educations, not sure, but if you don't, then
Speaker 2: I guess Brock wasn't talking to you. But in any event,
Speaker 2: Obama said, Trump is someone who, in Barack Obama's words,
Speaker 2: has consistently shown disregard not just for the communities, but
Speaker 2: for you as a person. And you are thinking about
Speaker 2: sitting and out. Part of it makes me think, and
Speaker 2: I'm speaking to men directly, Barack Obama that, well, you
Speaker 2: just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president,
Speaker 2: and you're coming up with other alternatives and reasons for that. No,
Speaker 2: Barack Obama, they're just smarter than can you give them
Speaker 2: credit for. Going back to the multitude of issues that
Speaker 2: the Democrats are on the wrong side of, including guys
Speaker 2: competing against women in sports, the economy. Black men, I
Speaker 2: bet go to the grocery store, oh in if their
Speaker 2: spouse their significant other does the grocery shopping, I'm sure
Speaker 2: the black man has listened to their spouse or significant
Speaker 2: other complain about the high cost of groceries. Maybe that
Speaker 2: black man that you're speaking to, Barack Obama, has a
Speaker 2: bank account that's been depleted because of oh, I don't know,
Speaker 2: inflationary press's price of insurance, housing, everything that's gone through
Speaker 2: the roof. Maybe that black man that you're talking to
Speaker 2: is overwhelmed by illegal immigrants been placed in his neighborhood.
Speaker 2: Perhaps that's an issue for that black man. Perhaps they're
Speaker 2: just a hell of a lot smarter than you think,
Speaker 2: and they listen to what comes out of Kamala Harris's mouth.
Speaker 2: And when going back to the views comments, She says
Speaker 2: she wouldn't have changed a damn thing that Barack Obama did.
Speaker 2: You've just sealed your fate. Black men listen to that
Speaker 2: and they say, I'm not up for another four years
Speaker 2: of this. I know what it was like under Trump. Yes,
Speaker 2: evil Orange man, hate them to death, but I was
Speaker 2: better off then. Six fifteen fifty five KSh detoxtation, Jim.
Speaker 2: I had to get that out before the break. If
Speaker 2: you don't mind holding, you will be the first collar

Speaker 2: eight ninety six.
Speaker 6: Hundred fifty five KRC.
Speaker 2: What's the best place to reach now? Six fifty five
Speaker 2: car C Decox station. I'm happy it's Friday, David. Oh,
Speaker 2: that makes two of us anyway, real quick, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: get Jim's call. Hang on one second, Jim, and just
Speaker 2: put an exclamation point on Barack Obama's comments to black
Speaker 2: men taking them for idiots is basically what I believe.
Speaker 2: And that's basically the conclusion that former DA Kalb County
Speaker 2: Georgia executive Vern Jones black Man he is he left
Speaker 2: the Democratic Party to join the GOP in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2: I will acknowledge that, but he had an interesting observation
Speaker 2: from a black man claimed that Barack Obama was being
Speaker 2: dispatched by white liberals to black Man's plain, why fellow
Speaker 2: African Americans should vote for Harris? No, thanks, Bo, Black's
Speaker 2: had enough of you and Kamala Harris, he said in pardon.
Speaker 2: So there's just one man's opinion, but I thought I
Speaker 2: passed it along. And good job Marsha for voting yesterday
Speaker 2: Hamlelon County Board of Elections. That went smoothly. It was
Speaker 2: ALIGNE that went through very quickly, easy to park. So
Speaker 2: thank you for voting early. Marsha, Jim, thanks for holding.
Speaker 2: Welcome to the program. It's good to hear from you today.
Speaker 12: Yeah, good morning, Brian.
Speaker 8: I was looking on the Kentucky ballot last night doing
Speaker 8: my homework to get ready for my early voting, and
Speaker 8: when I.
Speaker 13: Got to the Board of Education, my goodness, it's there's
Speaker 13: really only one choice out of the six I would
Speaker 13: possibly think of voting for.
Speaker 8: And the first guy had a LGBTQ in this bio.
Speaker 8: The last person has a Department of Defense Education activities
Speaker 8: is what he wants to implement.
Speaker 1: I've never even heard.
Speaker 8: Of asking but it can't be good no.
Speaker 2: Good man, good good instinct on that one, Jim, that's
Speaker 2: the conclusion I would have drawn anyway, go ahead.
Speaker 13: But but if that's not an advocate to vote yes
Speaker 13: on question two, I don't know what it is because that,
Speaker 13: I mean, you see all these signs know on too,
Speaker 13: which is you know, the school follows the or the
Speaker 13: money follows the kid?
Speaker 2: Oh, school choice. You're talking about school choice in Kentucky basically, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 13: And if that's not an advertisement for that, I don't
Speaker 13: know what it is.
Speaker 2: That's a great point, and you also make a great
Speaker 2: argument for people who are sane and care about children's
Speaker 2: education and actually teaching children to read, write, and be
Speaker 2: able to calculate mathematical problems effectively and properly. Is are
Speaker 2: the criteria that we should thinking about for board running,
Speaker 2: for people running for board of elect or board of education.
Speaker 2: To get better people to run I mean just because
Speaker 2: it's all the rage, you know, to be woke, and
Speaker 2: you know, claim you're in part with the LGBTQ on
Speaker 2: and on the environment, or you're you're you're in the
Speaker 2: movement whatever. That doesn't resonate real well with a lot
Speaker 2: of people. Going back to my observations and my beliefs
Speaker 2: about black men relative to that specific issue, I tend
Speaker 2: to think they're more traditional and that maybe one of
Speaker 2: the reasons the administration is losing support among the Hispanic community.
Speaker 2: Hispanic folks traditionally very family oriented, traditional type, you know,
Speaker 2: nuclear family supporters. They don't bide abide by this woke ideology.
Speaker 2: It's alienating. So many people run for school board, run
Speaker 2: as a competent, caring concern parent or citizen of the
Speaker 2: community that wants to make sure we have well educated
Speaker 2: kids who can think constructively and logically and reasonably, not
Speaker 2: just going for in doctrination camps. M good call, Jim
Speaker 2: got me fired this morning. Not that I wasn't before
Speaker 2: your call, but it's always welcome to have these conversations
Speaker 2: and the remaining moments of time before we get to tech.
Speaker 2: Friday with Dave had her going back to immigration yesterday
Speaker 2: at a town hall with Univision Kamala Harris responding to
Speaker 2: her question of what she'd do differently on the border.
Speaker 2: Going back to her view comment that she would do
Speaker 2: nothing different right, Harris's response, perhaps what distinguishes me from
Speaker 2: at least a couple of people. Now remember, not that
Speaker 2: my listening audience need to be reminded of this, but
Speaker 2: a nice little thought you might want to keep in
Speaker 2: the front of your head when you're hearing what she
Speaker 2: has to say in response to what she would do
Speaker 2: differently on the board of than Joe Biden. She's vice
Speaker 2: president right now, spend part of the administration for the
Speaker 2: last almost four years, and she was appointed. Borders are,
Speaker 2: whether you want to believe that or not, it was true,
Speaker 2: and all your left wing outlets agreed and used to
Speaker 2: say that regularly until they got the memo that no,
Speaker 2: she wasn't. The borders are. But regardless, she had some
Speaker 2: responsibility for dealing with the crisis on the southern border.
Speaker 2: And when they say crisis, which the Democrats do as well,
Speaker 2: you have to remember it's a product of their own making. Now,
Speaker 2: again going over to what she had to say, perhaps
Speaker 2: what distinguishes me from at least a couple of people.
Speaker 2: I was the top law enforcement officer in the biggest
Speaker 2: state in the country, California. Okay, that is also a
Speaker 2: border state. Thank you for that. I have taken on
Speaker 2: transnational criminal organizations. Okay, I've taken on transnational criminal organizations.
Speaker 2: She repeated that traffic in guns, drugs, and human beings,
Speaker 2: and I have prosecuted them. Okay. I let a bipartisan
Speaker 2: group of attorneys general to Mexico City to work with
Speaker 2: Mexican attorneys general to combine intelligence and resources to prosecute
Speaker 2: those cases. She seems to be dwelling a lot about
Speaker 2: her time as a prosecutor prosecuting criminals for crimes for
Speaker 2: which they had probable cause for a prosecution. What the
Speaker 2: hell does that have to do with a border? The
Speaker 2: open border policies have led tens of millions of people
Speaker 2: to come across it to our disadvantage. Nothing, and she
Speaker 2: concluded with I will bring back that border security bill
Speaker 2: and I will sign it into law. That's the so
Speaker 2: called bipartisan one that didn't pass. Big blame Donald Trump
Speaker 2: for not passing. As if our elected officials don't have
Speaker 2: independent free will. A lot of reason it didn't pass
Speaker 2: it because the substance in it was crappy. It didn't
Speaker 2: really do much to stem the flow. It allowed five
Speaker 2: thousand illegal immigrants across the border every single day. Do
Speaker 2: the math on that one over a full calendar year.
Speaker 2: But more fundamentally, even if that bill were presented, she
Speaker 2: will sign it, but she wouldn't be able to get
Speaker 2: it passed, which means without that bill, she's got no
Speaker 2: response to the question, nothing zero, which we've come to
Speaker 2: expect from the empty suit stick around tech fire to
Speaker 2: day've had to come up next. First, fastened pro roof
Speaker 2: and my favorite folks over fastened pro there outstanding what
Speaker 2: they do all facets of roofing work, that's right. Any
Speaker 2: kind of roof too commercial, residential. You want a metal roof,
Speaker 2: get one. You don't have to go shingle again. If
Speaker 2: you need a roof replacement, knock yourself out. They do
Speaker 2: custom copper work and man, I'm telling you it is beautiful.
Speaker 2: They're craftsmen at their trade. All facets of roofing work
Speaker 2: plus exterior projects like sighting, replacing the facia, everything, And
Speaker 2: I got the full fast and treatment when I had
Speaker 2: to hit my roof replace and I paid up for
Speaker 2: the fifty year shingle. If you need a new replaced
Speaker 2: roof with a shingle, you're gonna automatically get upgraded at
Speaker 2: no additional cost to you to the fifty years Certainty
Speaker 2: Landmark pro shingle. They do gutters and gutter guards, which
Speaker 2: I had them take care of when they were doing
Speaker 2: my roof. Beautiful stuff. I'm talking and I always like
Speaker 2: to emphasize because there are so many con artists out
Speaker 2: there in the roofing business. You're working with honest professionals.
Speaker 2: They're a well established a company with a lot of business.
Speaker 2: They do not have to rip you off in order
Speaker 2: to make a buck. They lead with honesty and deliver
Speaker 2: it with professional, superior quality work at the right price.
Speaker 2: So call them for a free let me underscore that
Speaker 2: word again. Free roof inspection and quote if there's one
Speaker 2: necessary five one three seven seven four ninety four ninety

Speaker 6: Fifty five KRC.
Speaker 2: Six thirty one fift about KRCD talk station. It's that
Speaker 2: time of week he gets in School and Tech Friday
Speaker 2: with Dave Hatter, brought to you by Interest. I find
Speaker 2: them on line interest it dot com if you're a
Speaker 2: business business career, says, they are the absolute best at
Speaker 2: dealing with your computer issues and needs and things about
Speaker 2: which we talk about every week on this segment. Welcome back,
Speaker 2: Dave Hatter. It's always a pleasure to heavy on my show.
Speaker 3: My pleasure to be here, Brian. I always look forward
Speaker 3: to it.
Speaker 2: All right, scammers targeting job hunters. Actually, my son's been
Speaker 2: through this. He was an online job immediately got a hit.
Speaker 2: They wanted to hire him, and it was obviously an
Speaker 2: immediately red flag. You know, buy computer equipment from this
Speaker 2: guy in Texas and we're going to send you a
Speaker 2: check and total scam job. But there's a multitude of
Speaker 2: scams out in the world. He tell us about them
Speaker 2: every week. What's this one all about?
Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean, that's that's part of the gist of it.
Speaker 14: And obviously Jerry's pretty tech savvy. I'm sure he picked
Speaker 14: up on right away that you know, wait a minute,
Speaker 14: something's not right here. But I think the most important
Speaker 14: thing is, you know, the job market is terrible. Ask
Speaker 14: anyone that's out there looking for a job. And now
Speaker 14: you want to throw on top of that the fact
Speaker 14: that scammers are going to try to take advantage of
Speaker 14: people who are looking for a job. I mean, it
Speaker 14: doesn't get too much lower than that.
Speaker 3: I don't think.
Speaker 14: You know, you've got someone who's trying to do the
Speaker 14: right thing for themselves and their family and society, frankly,
Speaker 14: and now you're going to try to You're going to
Speaker 14: try to scam them while they're looking for a job
Speaker 14: and are probably already you know, down on their luck
Speaker 14: to at.
Speaker 3: Least some extent.
Speaker 14: So I don't think the average person realizes how easy
Speaker 14: it is to spoof something. We talk about this all
Speaker 14: the time, but whether it's a single email address, or
Speaker 14: it's a phone number, or it's a whole website. And
Speaker 14: again that in this context, spoofing means I'm going to
Speaker 14: make something that looks legitiate to you unless you really
Speaker 14: know how to dig into it. Right to the naked eye,
Speaker 14: it looks legit. Sadly, it's really easy. You know, I
Speaker 14: can spin up a server offshore somewhere, I can copy
Speaker 14: an entire website like fifty five krc dot com.
Speaker 3: I can host it out there.
Speaker 14: I might use a doppelganger domain name, or maybe fifty
Speaker 14: five krc dot com. Instead of the English letter C,
Speaker 14: I use some other language that has a character that
Speaker 14: looks like a SE but isn't really a C. Right,
Speaker 14: So the computer can sort of determine the difference between
Speaker 14: those two things, But when you look at it to
Speaker 14: the naked eye, it looks exactly the same.
Speaker 3: So now I've got a site that looks totally legit.
Speaker 14: And in many cases these gammers are smart enough to
Speaker 14: realize that people don't know about search engine poisoning. That's
Speaker 14: why I think this story hits on two different points.
Speaker 14: Anyone with money can go place an ad on Google
Speaker 14: or any other search engine. Right, I could be a
Speaker 14: criminal posting ads on Google. So the ad shows up
Speaker 14: like it would for even a legitimate ad.
Speaker 3: To you, it looks legit.
Speaker 14: When you click on it, you don't know that you've
Speaker 14: now entered into my web of deception. Hopefully that makes
Speaker 14: sense to everybody. So now I post a job on
Speaker 14: a legitimate site like a dice or monster. I advertise
Speaker 14: on Google wherever, wherever. I'm trying to draw people in,
Speaker 14: and possibly all of those things right, dice Monster, career builder,
Speaker 14: pick any job. We'reing a website. You know, they're not
Speaker 14: vetting the people behind these ads. I want to run
Speaker 14: an ad, here's the ad content. If it meets their
Speaker 14: content moderation rules, and they spend the money, boom, it
Speaker 14: shows up out there.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 14: So, whether I get targeted by a quote recruiter on LinkedIn,
Speaker 14: you know, so because some of this stuff is inbound,
Speaker 14: they're actively targeting people and try to scam them. Others
Speaker 14: are passive. They're running ads on Google, they're posting fake
Speaker 14: jobs on job sites, and then you know, however I
Speaker 14: find them or they find me, It almost invariably ends
Speaker 14: up with something like what you've just described around Okay, hey,
Speaker 14: we love to hire you, but you're going to have
Speaker 14: to buy this equipment first, or take this training first,
Speaker 14: or something like that, right, and then we'll reimburse you
Speaker 14: once you're hired, and then you're out that money.
Speaker 2: Or in the case of Jerry, they send him a
Speaker 2: check and ah uh huh, and they want you, you know,
Speaker 2: go ahead and deposit the check. Well, quite often takes
Speaker 2: quite some time to clear, and they wanted to go
Speaker 2: ahead and quickly buy the equipment right away. It's like
Speaker 2: scam scam, scam, scam, scam scam. So anyway, Yeah, you
Speaker 2: just have to be on your toes at all times
Speaker 2: and seeing me more quickly you get a response, and
Speaker 2: more likely it is it some sort of bot or
Speaker 2: criminal activity trying to rip you off.
Speaker 3: I'd say that's probably strong likelihood.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 3: Now, obviously people work remotely more than ever before.
Speaker 14: Interviews are conducted over teams, zoom, that sort of thing
Speaker 14: more than ever before. But if you find yourself in
Speaker 14: a situation where they just don't ever want to meet
Speaker 14: in person, you know, that is probably a red flag,
Speaker 14: especially if they will only meet on teams and won't
Speaker 14: turn the cameras on.
Speaker 2: Well, and that street runs two ways that I saw
Speaker 2: an article this morning about North Koreans using fake IDs
Speaker 2: and artificial intelligence to pretend to be American citizens looking
Speaker 2: for remote work at your company, And of course it's
Speaker 2: all done for nefarious purposes so they can get inside
Speaker 2: your computer systems. Everybody's got to be on their toes,
Speaker 2: every one, Yes, I do. Pause will bring day back
Speaker 2: and talk about the well aftermath of the Bank of
Speaker 2: America outage, frightening stuff that but first earning twenty five
Speaker 2: dollars now and twenty five dollars later. That is so
Speaker 2: easy at Emory Federal Credit Union. For every friend, family member,

Speaker 2: simply by spreading the word about all the benefits of
Speaker 2: banking with Emory, and there are a number of them.
Speaker 2: I love banking with Emory. It is a better way
Speaker 2: to bank. You can earn extra cash and help your
Speaker 2: loved ones unlock a world of financial opportunities. Quick get

Speaker 2: Six thirty nine cole At sixty forty fifty by KERCD
Speaker 2: talk station Brian Thomas with interest its Dave Hatter interest
Speaker 2: it dot com to find Dave and the crew for
Speaker 2: all your business computer related needs over to something that
Speaker 2: scared the hell out of me. The Bank of America
Speaker 2: customers woke up to find that, well, their balances were
Speaker 2: at zero. And this made me think, and I thought
Speaker 2: of you immediately, Dave Hatter in a sorry, in a well,
Speaker 2: I think that's natural, man, you take it as a compliment.
Speaker 2: But before you get to the points you wanted to make,
Speaker 2: I have to ask you a simple question. At a
Speaker 2: world filled with ones and zeros, and our accounts and
Speaker 2: our four oh one k's and everything else we have
Speaker 2: financially reflected in ones and zeros, what happens if a
Speaker 2: hacker gets in? Is there a risk to my and
Speaker 2: my listener's four to one case for example, or even
Speaker 2: bank accounts that hackers could get in and basically just
Speaker 2: delete the entire system, like one of these ransomware attacks,
Speaker 2: that our life savings could just magically disappear because it
Speaker 2: exists in vapor.
Speaker 3: Well, that's an important question. Yeah, you know, first off,
Speaker 3: I would like to say no.
Speaker 14: However, you've got to understand that to your point, anything
Speaker 14: that is entirely digital is potentially subject to not only
Speaker 14: an attack that would reduce, eliminate, you know, wipe the
Speaker 14: data for lack of a better description, but it could
Speaker 14: also be poisoned, you know, could someone unleash some kind
Speaker 14: of program in the system that would just go in
Speaker 14: and like change the account information right, you know, and
Speaker 14: set everything to zero or set it to one dollar
Speaker 14: or whatever. Yeah, now I think it's important though, to say,
Speaker 14: let's face it, our banking system has been mostly electronic
Speaker 14: now for decades, and when you look at just what banks,
Speaker 14: big banks especially, are capable of, just in the area
Speaker 14: of fraud. I mean, I would bet every one of
Speaker 14: your listeners at least once by now has had, you know,
Speaker 14: some sort of fraud show up on a credit card
Speaker 14: and it gets canceled before they even know it. So,
Speaker 14: you know, when you think about resiliency, which is sort
Speaker 14: of the industry term for how quickly can I recover? Ideally,
Speaker 14: do I have no downtime? But if I have downtime
Speaker 14: because I have systems that fail over, right, something goes
Speaker 14: wrong with the main system, I fail over to a
Speaker 14: backup system and I keep going. If that doesn't work,
Speaker 14: then you know, hopefully I have things in place, backup
Speaker 14: and disaster recovery plans, et cetera, that are going to
Speaker 14: minimize how long I'm down, and you know off site backup.
Speaker 14: So is it possible that you could be completely wiped
Speaker 14: out without any chance of recovery barring you taking in
Speaker 14: some sort of email or pay per form or something
Speaker 14: that shows your account balance. I think it's I think
Speaker 14: the likelihood of that where we're at today, with all
Speaker 14: of the failover and backup capabilities and the obvious necessity
Speaker 14: to ensure that people's money isn't wiped out like this
Speaker 14: because of the impact it would have on society as
Speaker 14: a whole, I think the likelihood is really low, but
Speaker 14: I don't think it's zero. I don't think there's a
Speaker 14: zero chance of right, simply because you know, if a
Speaker 14: determined hacker or an insider going back to your North
Speaker 14: Korea thing before, who really understood how the systems work,
Speaker 14: could attack in multiple places at one time.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, Rian, we talk about it all
Speaker 3: the time here.
Speaker 14: When you get right down to it, we have become
Speaker 14: our society is increasingly fragile in my opinion, because we
Speaker 14: are increasingly reliant on all this technologies.
Speaker 3: And it's not the technology.
Speaker 14: Itself necessary to suspect, it's the fact that all of
Speaker 14: this stuff has been built at a time when security
Speaker 14: wasn't as much of a concern.
Speaker 3: Everything is now interconnected.
Speaker 2: That's yeah, that's the difference now. Back in the days
Speaker 2: when the big traders were trading electronically and only they
Speaker 2: were doing it, the world wasn't an interconnected place. You
Speaker 2: couldn't just log in from North Korea into a server
Speaker 2: in the United States of America through the Internet. Now,
Speaker 2: of course, that's been a reality for quite some time.
Speaker 2: That's why I asked the question at the outset. But
Speaker 2: in so far as this is concerned, they reflect they
Speaker 2: had their compounds is reflected as zero. The concern it
Speaker 2: prompted my question, how did this happen with Bank of America?
Speaker 2: I guess in the final analysis, what was the problem here?
Speaker 2: Since it isn't a deletion of everybody's record that I
Speaker 2: was worried about, it's something slightly less than that.
Speaker 3: Well, the reporting I've seen on it is kind of inconsistent.
Speaker 14: Like some of the people they talked to said that
Speaker 14: when they use the app on their phone, it said zero,
Speaker 14: but then when they logged in over the web, it
Speaker 14: showed that they had money in their accounts. And then
Speaker 14: I've seen others that seem to contradict that that whether
Speaker 14: they logged in through a web browser or they use
Speaker 14: the app on their phone, it says zero. So I
Speaker 14: haven't seen where Bank of America has said exactly what happened,
Speaker 14: And you know, sometimes they won't because if there is
Speaker 14: a vulnerability, they don't want to explain it. So while
Speaker 14: I personally think transparency is always good and it helps
Speaker 14: ease people's mind when you get a reasonable explanation for
Speaker 14: a problem like this, I can't understand that in some cases,
Speaker 14: depending on what actually happened, you may not want to
Speaker 14: explain it in detail because it would give up information
Speaker 14: that would make it easier for some sort of future attack.
Speaker 3: So I don't know.
Speaker 14: I mean, my first advice to people would be, if
Speaker 14: you're using an app on your phone, I don't access
Speaker 14: my bank from an app on my phone. I only
Speaker 14: do it from a lockdown web browser on a computer, right,
Speaker 14: And you know understand that even if you're going at
Speaker 14: it from a web browser, it's probably one level away
Speaker 14: from the bank system. There's some kind of nerdspeak API
Speaker 14: application programming interface that interfaces with the back end to
Speaker 14: put that data into the web browser and I can
Speaker 14: almost guarantee you the mobile apps are using some kind
Speaker 14: of API.
Speaker 3: Could they be using a different API? And is that why?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 14: Maybe one system was down that fed that data off
Speaker 14: to their mobile apps, but everything else was working again.
Speaker 14: The reporting is kind of inconsistent, but I guess my
Speaker 14: first advice to people is if you look in to
Speaker 14: your account and it says zero from a mobile app,
Speaker 14: I wouldn't panic. My first guess is there's something wrong
Speaker 14: with the app, and I would defall back to all right,
Speaker 14: I'm going to try to log in using a web
Speaker 14: browser and see what I get.
Speaker 3: Now, if it still says zero, then I would pick
Speaker 3: up the phone and call, and I'd immediately call.
Speaker 14: I would not wait around asp, you know, because anytime
Speaker 14: there is some sort of fraud, you know, if it
Speaker 14: says zero, is it a bank problem?
Speaker 3: Is it? Is it your account's been hacked and your
Speaker 3: money's been stolen? Who knows?
Speaker 14: But the sooner you get to the bottom of that,
Speaker 14: Right with any kind of fraud, the sooner you realize
Speaker 14: money's missing and you report it and start working through
Speaker 14: the channels to try to.
Speaker 2: Address it, the better off you will be, all right,
Speaker 2: And I guess a lot of people haven't been listening
Speaker 2: to you for the past decade. Dave Hatter coming up

Speaker 2: talk station. Brian Thomas with tech Friday day had or
Speaker 2: thanks to his company Interests I for sponsoring this segment
Speaker 2: every week day've had or they haven't been listening.
Speaker 3: To you have that? Sadly no, Brian, sadly no.
Speaker 2: I can't believe this is still a thing after all
Speaker 2: the people been hacked into and easily it's easy to
Speaker 2: figure out passwords like password one. You know, it's the
Speaker 2: first order of business is to try that one. Anyhow.
Speaker 2: Same thing with pin codes.
Speaker 14: Yeah, now, obviously you don't need a pin code, maybe
Speaker 14: as often as you used to, but let's face it,
Speaker 14: whether it's an ATM or it might be a pin
Speaker 14: code for your sellular carrier's account.
Speaker 3: I encourage everyone to do this.
Speaker 14: By the way, one of the best ways to protect
Speaker 14: yourself from getting SIM jacked or simswapped, which could lead
Speaker 14: to catastrophe, because if I can have your phone number
Speaker 14: transferred to a different physical device, I can potentially reset
Speaker 14: all your passwords and get all your MFA.
Speaker 3: Codes and do anything I want to you.
Speaker 14: So most as far as I know all the major
Speaker 14: cellular carriers, I use Verse and I know they have
Speaker 14: this capability. You can set up a pin code when
Speaker 14: you want to change something on your account. In addition
Speaker 14: to calling in or logging in, you have to know
Speaker 14: that pin code. And if you're using a pin code
Speaker 14: for this, research from information is beautiful, uh like one
Speaker 14: two three four. Guess what the bad guys already know this.
Speaker 14: It's interesting when you look at what they've summarized here.
Speaker 2: So you know a question on yah ahead, because Okay,
Speaker 2: the way my mind works, if I'm trying to, you know,
Speaker 2: break in your phone and you got a pin code,
Speaker 2: I'm going to start typing in one two three four
Speaker 2: or one one one one, all the ones that people
Speaker 2: tend to do nine nine ninety nine. Isn't there a
Speaker 2: point at which that software will block you out and
Speaker 2: render you incapable of doing it anymore. You have to
Speaker 2: you have to hope that's the case. Is that the
Speaker 2: case of Verizon, you know, I do not know. I
Speaker 2: think Apple blocks you after multiple attempts.
Speaker 3: I would assume that it is.
Speaker 14: We'll keep in mind, right when we use the term
Speaker 14: PIN personal identification number again, it could be an ATM,
Speaker 14: it could be on something like a secular carrier. You
Speaker 14: it's a secondary piece of authentication right now. Obviously with
Speaker 14: a bank account, you stick your debit card in the ATM.
Speaker 14: Part of that authentication is something you have, right you
Speaker 14: have that card, it's got your information on it, and
Speaker 14: then something you know kicks in because you have to
Speaker 14: know that PIN. So I mean it's essentially, when you're
Speaker 14: using an ATM kind of a two factor multi factor
Speaker 14: authentication model, they've already built authentication authentication. I can't believe
Speaker 14: I said often a word authentication. But the bottom line is,
Speaker 14: you know, you would hope that every piece of software
Speaker 14: out there would have some sort of account lockout after
Speaker 14: so many invalid attempts.
Speaker 3: But that's not always the case.
Speaker 14: And if you don't know that, there's these common patterns,
Speaker 14: right that according to this infographic this organization put together,
Speaker 14: twenty seven percent of all PIN numbers fall into the
Speaker 14: list of most common, which are one, two, three, four, zero, zero, zero,
Speaker 14: one point one some of the ones you hit on.
Speaker 14: The bad guys know this, right, so of course they're
Speaker 14: going to start out with those, and hopefully the account
Speaker 14: gets locked out well once they reset the account at
Speaker 14: some point, whether it auto resets after some period of time,
Speaker 14: or you call and you can't get in and they
Speaker 14: reset it for you. You know, if you don't understand
Speaker 14: that now, perhaps your account is attempting to be hacked
Speaker 14: and you reset it to one of these pin numbers
Speaker 14: because they're easy, you're making it easy. The bottom line
Speaker 14: really in my mind, Brian, is when you look at
Speaker 14: this chart, and I'll post this on my show notes links, right,
Speaker 14: they give you some of the least common pins. Well,
Speaker 14: I wouldn't necessarily pick one of those either, because now
Speaker 14: someone has published this, right.
Speaker 3: Ideally I would just pick.
Speaker 14: Something kind of at random, but certainly something that's not
Speaker 14: on the most common list. The other problem with pins
Speaker 14: if you don't have an account lockout capability is if
Speaker 14: you think about it from a mathematical standpoint, right, you
Speaker 14: have zero or one through zero right, one to ten
Speaker 14: essentially for a pin, and it's usually four digits, so
Speaker 14: that is a relatively limited number of possible permutations, right,
Speaker 14: it's ten times two, ten times ten times ten. Writing
Speaker 14: a computer program that could generate every one of those combinations,
Speaker 14: it would be easy, and it would literally run in
Speaker 14: probably less than one second to generate every possible combination.
Speaker 14: So by picking a pin that is more difficult, you're
Speaker 14: just doing yourself a favor. And I would also strongly
Speaker 14: recommend same advice for passwords, don't use the same pin
Speaker 14: on more than one account. This is where a password
Speaker 14: manager can be handy because, in addition to user names
Speaker 14: and passwords, you can store your pins in there. So
Speaker 14: rather than have that one universal pin you use everywhere,
Speaker 14: store a unique pin for each account in your password manager.
Speaker 14: You'll be much more secure. But it's interesting when you
Speaker 14: look at this, the bad guys know this stuff, Brian.
Speaker 14: Of course you're a favor by not using these easily
Speaker 14: guessed or easily hacked things.
Speaker 2: So sound advice, as always from interest It's day batter day.
Speaker 2: I've always enjoyed the segment, very informative take his advice
Speaker 2: to hard folks stand out of trouble and avoid these situations. Dave,
Speaker 2: until next Friday. I hope you have a wonderful weekend,
Speaker 2: my friend, and thanks to you and everybody in interest.
Speaker 2: I tee it's been great talking to you always my pleasure, Brian.
Speaker 2: I'll look forward to chatting with you next week. Appreciate it, man,
Speaker 2: stick around folks. Coming up off top of the our news,
Speaker 2: we're gonna hear from Dave Williams from the Taxpayer Protection
Speaker 2: Alliance multiple topics with him, and then the spokesperson are
Speaker 2: a spokesperson for Yes on issue one here in Ohio,
Speaker 2: the jerrymandering constitutional Amendment, Chris, Dave, you'll be on the
Speaker 2: show at seven pin forty to try to encourage you
Speaker 2: to vote yes. I think even after the conversation, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna be a hard no. But you can draw your
Speaker 2: own conclusions. That's why we have these conversations here in
Speaker 2: the morning show.
Speaker 10: I'll be right back your campaign fit stop on the
Speaker 10: road to November.
Speaker 3: There's so much going on. I gotta check in a
Speaker 3: few times a day.
Speaker 10: Fifty five krs the talk station. Y it's seven oh
Speaker 10: six and a very happy Friday to everybody. Brian Thomas,
Speaker 10: always happy to talk to Dave Williams. Find on my
Speaker 10: line checking taxpayers dot org from the Taxpayer Protection Lines.
Speaker 2: Welcome back, Dave, my friend. It is always great speaking
Speaker 2: with you. Good morning, Brian.
Speaker 15: You know it's funny the other day I was listening
Speaker 15: to the radio, listen to music, and that song you're
Speaker 15: intro song, and I'm like, wait a second, is it
Speaker 15: time for for Brians? Like that was a bit triggered
Speaker 15: when I heard it on the radio.
Speaker 2: Well, you can always count on tool regularly. Here on
Speaker 2: the five k S Morning Show for Bumper Music. I
Speaker 2: start my program like I have them. It's my eighteenth
Speaker 2: year in radio, and almost from the outset, I have
Speaker 2: opened the program with anima by tool. If you read
Speaker 2: the lyrics, you'll know exactly why, Dave, You'll know exactly why.
Speaker 2: And in fact, if you don't know the lyrics of
Speaker 2: that song, when you get off AE N I m
Speaker 2: A is how you spell it, read the lyrics you
Speaker 2: will crack up and you will understand exactly what I'm
Speaker 2: talking about the tunes. So it's awesome. It's my favorite
Speaker 2: band tool anyway, something that's not in your list but
Speaker 2: I had to interject this real quick. A Hurricane Milton
Speaker 2: destroyed the Tampa Ray's Tropic Caana field and if you
Speaker 2: saw the roof got ripped off of that, and in
Speaker 2: the reporting on that, they said they're supposed to have
Speaker 2: a brand news stadium built by twenty twenty eight to
Speaker 2: replace this one. I guess total cost one point three billion.
Speaker 2: Now I laughed at that because the total cost of
Speaker 2: the stadium upgrades that the Bengals won came in only
Speaker 2: slightly less than the cost to build an entire stadium
Speaker 2: in Tampa. So anyway, I know you're a big fan
Speaker 2: of watching these stadium deals, so I thought i'd interject
Speaker 2: that sort of comical objection.
Speaker 15: YEA, this is yeah, Brian, this is crazy. One point
Speaker 15: two billion for upgrades, upgrades. I mean, you're not even
Speaker 15: building a new stadium. These are just upgrades. I mean,
Speaker 15: are these going to be gold plated seats? I can't
Speaker 15: imagine what you're going to spend. And when I say you,
Speaker 15: it's going to be taxpayers.
Speaker 2: Of course you include me. I'm a Hamilton County resident. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so wow, pivoting over Congress shocking. No one Congress is
Speaker 2: making improper payments.
Speaker 15: Huh wow, this is a story that is so underreported.
Speaker 15: You know, we're talking about hundreds of billions of dollars
Speaker 15: a year in improper payments. And what improper payments means
Speaker 15: is that the money is going to the wrong people
Speaker 15: or they're getting too much money. These are payments that
Speaker 15: shouldn't be going out. And what that means, Brian, is
Speaker 15: that no one's going to miss them. If they stop
Speaker 15: these improper payments, no one is going to miss them.
Speaker 15: It's not as if, you know, people deserve this money,
Speaker 15: because no, they're sending too much out and we're talking
Speaker 15: about hundreds of billions and still in COVID relief.
Speaker 12: There's still a.
Speaker 15: Lot of money in COVID relief money coming out of
Speaker 15: the treasury, and the treasury means our pockets.
Speaker 2: Well, I just read an article about, you know, FEMA
Speaker 2: running out of money right into the fiscal year that
Speaker 2: I've already blown through half of their full annual allocation.
Speaker 2: They're complaining about not having enough efficient resources of course
Speaker 2: to deal with the hurricane damage. And the follow up
Speaker 2: article that I just saw this morning, ten billion dollars
Speaker 2: in leftover COVID funds may be available to offer the
Speaker 2: residents struggling with damage some relief. And I just it
Speaker 2: just cracked me up that, oh, look, we got an
Speaker 2: extra ten billion dollars laying over here for something It
Speaker 2: isn't even a problem anymore. Welcome to the federal government.
Speaker 2: It's inability to keep track of and properly allocate money.
Speaker 15: And I don't know if you saw this, but Speaker
Speaker 15: Johnson late yesterday said that when Congress comes back, they're
Speaker 15: looking at a supplemental bill for about one hundred billion
Speaker 15: dollars to deal with Helene and Milton there hurricanes. So
Speaker 15: I mean this is going to get more and more expensive,
Speaker 15: and one hundred billion dollars as a supplemental I mean
Speaker 15: this is crazy.
Speaker 2: Well and sadly like COVID programs, another program that'll probably
Speaker 2: be subject to fraud, waste and abuse.
Speaker 3: For sure.
Speaker 15: And so back when Katrina hit the Golf coast, Senator
Speaker 15: Tom kober and the late Senator Tom kober and had
Speaker 15: this idea. He said, listen, we're going to spend billions
Speaker 15: of dollars in the Golf coast, right, so why don't
Speaker 15: we spend a few million on the Inspector General. Let's
Speaker 15: bolster the Inspector General's office. Let's hire some auditors to monitor,
Speaker 15: you know, the waste fraud and abuse that we know
Speaker 15: is going to happen during Hurricane Katrina six million dollars
Speaker 15: out of you know, billions, and Congress said, no, that's
Speaker 15: too much, we don't want to do that. I mean,
Speaker 15: this is you know, back in two thousand and five.
Speaker 15: They should resurrect that idea today. And if they are
Speaker 15: going to spend one hundred billion dollars, part of that
Speaker 15: has to go to the Inspector General because there's going
Speaker 15: to be massive, massive waste fraud and abuse. You're going
Speaker 15: to see people gaming the system. And I can't imagine
Speaker 15: you talk about improper payments. Wow, you know we could
Speaker 15: see twenty percent of that one hundred billion dollars in
Speaker 15: improper payments.
Speaker 2: That's amazing. If you know, search for you you'll find it.
Speaker 2: And why don't they allocate more resources? I mean, you
Speaker 2: would think that fiscal responsibility and avoiding improper payments just
Speaker 2: conceptually does not have a partisan stripe. If there are
Speaker 2: hundreds of billions of dollars out there that are going
Speaker 2: to the wrong place. If you're a lefty and you
Speaker 2: think government should spend more on filling the blank some
Speaker 2: every social cause you want. Well, there it is right there.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you want to account for the money properly so
Speaker 2: it frees up the dollars to go to your favorite
Speaker 2: pet program? Or if you're a fiscal hawk like I am,
Speaker 2: wouldn't you just want to get rid of the fraud, waste,
Speaker 2: and abuse for the purpose of improving our bottom line?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 15: I don't understand it, because this is the low hanging
Speaker 15: fruit of things, right. We're not asking people to sacrifice anything.
Speaker 15: We're just saying get rid of these improper payments. And
Speaker 15: even if you've got fifty or seventy five percent of this,
Speaker 15: you'd still make a huge difference. And again, you know,
Speaker 15: for some reason Congress doesn't want to do this. I
Speaker 15: don't know why is it.
Speaker 2: Potentially And I hate to even ask this for fear
Speaker 2: you're going to say yes, just simply an insurmountable hurdle.
Speaker 2: You can hire all the biggest of the big five
Speaker 2: accounting firms, whatever they happen to be these days. I
Speaker 2: know that's changed over the years. I still think about
Speaker 2: Arthur Anderson, for example. But you could hire all those
Speaker 2: accountants at a very sizeable dollar per hour charge. I
Speaker 2: might point out they do charge a lot like lawyers,
Speaker 2: but that they just couldn't deal with the work. That
Speaker 2: there's so much money flowing out of Washington, DC that
Speaker 2: to monitor and make sure it's properly paid is just
Speaker 2: beyond anybody's capability.
Speaker 15: Well, you can't give up. I mean, you can't just
Speaker 15: throw in the towel and say, just because it's too
Speaker 15: big of a job, we're not going to do it.
Speaker 15: I mean, imagine if the pioneers of this country said
Speaker 15: that this is too big of a job, so we're
Speaker 15: not going to do it.
Speaker 1: It has to start some.
Speaker 2: Well, the pioneers were activities weren't paid for by robbing
Speaker 2: someone else to do it.
Speaker 3: True.
Speaker 15: True, And so I think that you know, when you
Speaker 15: look at the inspector generally look at any sort of watchdog,
Speaker 15: you have to have teeth to it. Is that if
Speaker 15: you are caught defrauding the government, whether you're a company
Speaker 15: a person, you know longer get taxpayer money full stop.
Speaker 15: You have to pay back the money and you are
Speaker 15: no longer eligible to get any sort of grant from
Speaker 15: the federal government. There has to be some sort of
Speaker 15: accountability and not just a slap on the wrist.
Speaker 2: Well, in which case I can see them just rechanging
Speaker 2: the name of their five oh one to three c
Speaker 2: or NGO operation to some other name and file different
Speaker 2: paperwork and just reappear as well, basically the same group
Speaker 2: and in a different under a different name, and reapply.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Then it becomes a whack a mole. Yeah, and they
Speaker 15: just keep on popping up and you try to beat
Speaker 15: them down for sure.
Speaker 2: No I know, but I mean every logical solution comes
Speaker 2: with some sort of parallel associated with it. And again
Speaker 2: that goes to the maybe they just have decided behind
Speaker 2: the scenes like screw it, it's is not worthy. We're
Speaker 2: never going to be able to go to a head
Speaker 2: around this.
Speaker 15: And remember Brian criminals are always smarter than the government.
Speaker 15: They always have a new scam going.
Speaker 2: Yes they are. And of course that's one of the
Speaker 2: reasons we talk with Dave Hatter, who preceded you on
Speaker 2: the program with tech Friday, and all the ways that
Speaker 2: these hackers are so much more brilliant than apparently that
Speaker 2: people that designed the software. Anyhow, we got more to
Speaker 2: talk about with Dave. One is protecting taxpayers. Dot org
Speaker 2: is where you find the Taxpayer Protection Alliance Online coming
Speaker 2: up with DAVE government owned Internet Networks in Minnesota. Minnesota
Speaker 2: land that job with that contract. Anyway, we'll continue at
Speaker 2: some fourteen right now if you five kcy talxation and
Speaker 2: I want to steer you in the right direction. For
Speaker 2: plumbing residential plumbing, it's plumb tight plumbing done right. It's
Speaker 2: always plumbing done right. With plumb tight plumbing, they are
Speaker 2: amazing plumbers, excellent customer service. They're excellent communication in terms
Speaker 2: of when you schedule the appointment. Like all service companies,
Speaker 2: you're gonna get a window, but when they're on their
Speaker 2: way over, they give you a call ahead of time,
Speaker 2: so you know for sure when they say they're twenty
Speaker 2: minutes out, they're going to be there at twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: It's been my experience every time with plumb tight they
Speaker 2: losso send you photograph for the plumber sena who's going
Speaker 2: to be standing on your front door, and that plumber
Speaker 2: will have exceptional customer service. They'll evaluate your plumbing project
Speaker 2: and give you a fair and ethical quote. They will

Speaker 16: The other is just above Felicity on one thirty three
Speaker 16: at seven seventy four. Chuck Ingram, I'm fifty five payer
Speaker 16: c the talk station.
Speaker 2: It is seven eighteen coming up with seven nineteen to
Speaker 2: fifty five pair CD talk station Brian Thomas with Dave
Speaker 2: Williams from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance. All right, moved away
Speaker 2: from improper payments to government owned internet network What what's
Speaker 2: going on with this?
Speaker 15: Wow, so these things are popping up all over the country.
Speaker 15: Is that state and local governments are using taxpayer money
Speaker 15: to build internet systems, broadband networks and believe it or not,
Speaker 15: failing failing as absolutely alarm Yeah, shocking, right that the
Speaker 15: government ends all right.
Speaker 2: Well, we'll do the whole went a why let us
Speaker 2: start with the why would they get involved in this
Speaker 2: effort when the free market seems to be adequately serving
Speaker 2: our ability to get online.
Speaker 15: Because they don't think that the free market is adequately
Speaker 15: doing this. And listen, we have wireless, we have starlink,
Speaker 15: we have fiber. We had so many options for people
Speaker 15: to cant to the internet. But government doesn't understand that.
Speaker 15: And they've spent you know, billions, tens of billions of
Speaker 15: dollars to connect people when the private sector has actually
Speaker 15: spent trillions of dollars to connect people. And that's why
Speaker 15: these projects are failing at an alarming rate across the country.
Speaker 15: And so if you're a city and you build one
Speaker 15: of these networks, and you mentioned Minnesota, this is Wilmer, Minnesota.
Speaker 15: They had to borrow twenty five million dollars, so that
Speaker 15: means they have to pay the twenty five million dollars
Speaker 15: back with interest. And after five or ten years, people
Speaker 15: aren't subscribing to these networks, so they fail. So now
Speaker 15: they had this huge bill they have to pay and
Speaker 15: they don't even have a broadband network in Well, we've
Speaker 15: been talking about this for years, Brian, is that they
Speaker 15: need to stop doing this.
Speaker 2: Okay, people aren't signing up, I presume, going back to
Speaker 2: my original point, because we already have free enterprise providing
Speaker 2: these services to the public, which are obviously keeping Verizon
Speaker 2: and other carries like that making it in business, not
Speaker 2: only but also making fat profit. People are not signing
Speaker 2: up for the government internet services because well, maybe there's
Speaker 2: a better alternative out there. In other words, the government
Speaker 2: cannot compete in a free market with its product. Who
Speaker 2: is this system set up for? Is this for people
Speaker 2: on life's margins who can't afford a monthly internet bill
Speaker 2: from a regular normal so to say, Verizon type carrier.
Speaker 15: Absolutely not, because there are federal programs to help people
Speaker 15: pay for internet service, right, That's what I thought.
Speaker 3: This is.
Speaker 15: Yeah, this is compete directly with the private sector and with.
Speaker 2: Socialism. The state owns the means of production in this
Speaker 2: particular case, and controls the means of production. I might add,
Speaker 2: So owning the internet service provider government owned and providing
Speaker 2: that is absolute socialism, and the economics of it makes
Speaker 2: no sense.
Speaker 15: If you're a Comcast. You're a verizon, you have economies
Speaker 15: of scale, right because you're buying equipment economies of scale.
Speaker 15: If you're a city, you are not. I mean, when
Speaker 15: you're building this network, you don't get the same economies
Speaker 15: of scale, and everything is more expensive and the service
Speaker 15: isn't as good. And get this, they are charging the
Speaker 15: same amount for the service if you want one gigabyte,
Speaker 15: if you want cable, whatever it is. We compared it
Speaker 15: and they're charging the same as a Comcast, as a charter,
Speaker 15: as a verizon. So there's no price differential.
Speaker 2: Poor service. Nope, it's not a better price. Government run
Speaker 2: and own, therefore services worse. Literally across the board, there
Speaker 2: is no advantage whatsoever. So no kidding, these things aren't working.
Speaker 2: So is this sort of a concept that's ongoing. Are
Speaker 2: they doing this elsewhere or is this Minnesota sort of
Speaker 2: an outlier in lunacy all over the country.
Speaker 15: Next door Kentucky Wired was one of the pioneers in
Speaker 15: wasteful spending on a government owned network, and this was
Speaker 15: the middle mile project that they've been doing. You know,
Speaker 15: billions of dollars that Kentucky had to finance, and you know,
Speaker 15: we again we have Starlink and Amazon even has a
Speaker 15: satellite based internet service. So there's massive competition out there,
Speaker 15: and for some reason the government doesn't see it.
Speaker 2: Well, I shouldn't be perplexed because this is government we're
Speaker 2: talking about, But I guess I wonder do the individual
Speaker 2: states like Kentucky, for example, you mentioned one of the
Speaker 2: being done there, do they have a say over whether
Speaker 2: or not they're going to move forward with this? And
Speaker 2: what is the in for a state to want to
Speaker 2: take on its own financial obligations, or even a city
Speaker 2: like you point out in this in Minneapolis, or a
Speaker 2: city to go twenty five million dollars in the hole
Speaker 2: to fund something that isn't going to benefit them in
Speaker 2: any way, shape or form is it? Do they have
Speaker 2: a choice? What is the dangling carrot that would push
Speaker 2: any idiot politician or decision maker into this situation?
Speaker 15: They absolutely have a choice. And what we're seeing is
Speaker 15: a lot of consultants pop up. Is a consultant will
Speaker 15: go into a city and do a study and say, oh, yes,
Speaker 15: you need this street car, taxpayer, Yeah, this new broadband system.
Speaker 15: Well guess what this consultant also builds it. And I'm
Speaker 15: reminded of the Simpsons the monorail where everyone was excited
Speaker 15: for the mono rail to come in, and you had
Speaker 15: the consultant come in and say, yes, a monorail will
Speaker 15: help the city, you know, economically. I mean, that's what
Speaker 15: these things are. These are the Springfield monorails of twenty
Speaker 15: twenty four and twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: Well, and we've talked to a lot of topics over
Speaker 2: the years, Dave, and I don't know, I'm troubled or
Speaker 2: I'm struggling to find one that's any that it's dumber
Speaker 2: than this. This is a perfect illustration of government stupidity
Speaker 2: and government endeavoring. I presume over the long term, if
Speaker 2: they do enough of these stupid projects, failing as they are,
Speaker 2: that maybe they're interested in just putting out private internet providers.
Speaker 2: They are putting private internet providers out of business, and
Speaker 2: whatting the government take over it? Going over to my
Speaker 2: concerns over the First Amendment and government's trying to control
Speaker 2: the narrative over our speech. Is this not a vehicle
Speaker 2: that could potentially do that?
Speaker 15: It absolutely is, And this really has showed the contempt
Speaker 15: that the government has for business and free enterprise. You
Speaker 15: look at all the anti trust actions right now by
Speaker 15: the Federal Trade Commission, by the Department of Justice. It
Speaker 15: really is a distrust and really trying to break down
Speaker 15: and destroy business and corporations in this country. And listen,
Speaker 15: I am not here to defend corporations. I think they
Speaker 15: do a lot of head things, but they also do
Speaker 15: good things. They employ people, they add to the economy
Speaker 15: and for the government. And this is a lot of
Speaker 15: this is political, has nothing to do with policy. Is
Speaker 15: that the Elizabeth Warrens of the world hate certain businesses,
Speaker 15: so they want the Federal Trade Commission to break them up,
Speaker 15: to destroy them. And this is not what the government
Speaker 15: is for. And we've gotten so far away from the
Speaker 15: original intent of what this country was supposed to be about.
Speaker 15: It's not even funny.
Speaker 2: It isn't funny. We'll pause, bring day back for one
Speaker 2: more of the irs and political ven Detta seven twenty five.
Speaker 2: Right now, if you've out KCIT talk station and speaking
Speaker 2: of money matters, Susette Lovescamp. Of course, mortgage probably one
Speaker 2: of the biggest financial transactions you'll ever get involved with.
Speaker 2: Borrowing money for the purpose of acquiring a home. We
Speaker 2: all know how that works, and Susette makes that process
Speaker 2: so so easy for mortgages, any mortgage related situation, I mean,
Speaker 2: even the idea of a second mortgage, which never I
Speaker 2: mean a reverse mortgage, never appeals to me. But Suseette
Speaker 2: knows about those and can help you with that fixed
Speaker 2: second mortgage. Cash out options, lines of credit, down payment
Speaker 2: assistance programs are available for certain states. He knows everything
Speaker 2: there is with more than thirty five years in the
Speaker 2: mortgage business. On top of that, her customer service is
Speaker 2: absolutely superior. You couldn't be working with a nicer, sweeter person,
Speaker 2: or someone who's going to get you through this process
Speaker 2: as quickly and painlessly as possible. Thank you Susette for
Speaker 2: helping my daughter out with her financing on her home.
Speaker 2: She's never charged a junk fee, never charges an application fee,
Speaker 2: and Susette is with Cross Country Mortgage, which means she
Speaker 2: can help you regardless of which state you're in. And
Speaker 2: my friend's in Puerto Rico, she can help you too.
Speaker 2: Send he an email or shooter, a center of drop

Speaker 2: the Taxpayer Protection Alliance again online Protecting Taxpayers dot org.
Speaker 2: We end on the IRS and political vendit as are
Speaker 2: going back to Lowess Lerner on this one.
Speaker 15: Dave, Yeah, this goes back, boy to the twenty ten
Speaker 15: and you know, we remember the political targeting of Lois Earner,
Speaker 15: and the Taxpayer's Protection Alliance was actually part of that
Speaker 15: because you know, we were formed in twenty eleven and
Speaker 15: we got some very nasty letters from Lois Learner. You know,
Speaker 15: obviously we were able to get our nonprofit status as
Speaker 15: a fee for but it wasn't easy because we had
Speaker 15: the word taxpayer in our name. And the same thing
Speaker 15: is still happening fourteen years later, is that the IRS
Speaker 15: now is looking at when a company sells assets to
Speaker 15: a third party. So I'm really boring sort of you know,
Speaker 15: inside baseball stuff, but the IRS is saying now we
Speaker 15: are going to review even though it's legal, We're going
Speaker 15: to review and potentially audit every single transaction, not based
Speaker 15: upon the legality, but based upon who's doing it. And
Speaker 15: it's more of a political a judgment rather than a
Speaker 15: policy judgment.
Speaker 2: Well, isn't that illegal?
Speaker 15: Yes, one hundred percent. And this is why we wrote
Speaker 15: the outbed. This is why we have the ears and
Speaker 15: eyes of people in the Senate and the House, and
Speaker 15: they are investigating this and looking into this because this
Speaker 15: is blatantly illegal. And you know, this is one of
Speaker 15: those things where you know Lois Learner, listen, she that
Speaker 15: was public and a lot of people knew about that.
Speaker 15: This is something that has really flown under the radar
Speaker 15: and really needs a lot more attention that they are
Speaker 15: now targeting politically companies in this country. And when you
Speaker 15: do that, companies will leave. You know, there's only so
Speaker 15: much that they're going to take from the IRS and
Speaker 15: from the tax food and they're going to leave. So
Speaker 15: that's that's my concern is that this is not only
Speaker 15: going to hurt the companies themselves, but it's going to
Speaker 15: hurt us economically if these companies do relocate.
Speaker 2: Well, as you point out, Charles, little John IRS contractor
Speaker 2: got off with a slap on the risk for illegally
Speaker 2: leaking sensitive tax documents. That's typically the outcome and anything
Speaker 2: when they find somebody has engaged in illegal behavior, nothing
Speaker 2: really becomes of it, which is doesn't act as much
Speaker 2: of a deterrent, if you know what I mean. That's
Speaker 2: a key pillar of the criminal justice system is to
Speaker 2: deter people from getting involved in crime because of the penalties.
Speaker 2: But the penalties are always quite.
Speaker 15: Light, and we've seen the IRS targeting lower income individuals
Speaker 15: to audits. I mean, this is you look at a
Speaker 15: heat map of where the poor people in this country,
Speaker 15: the Mississippi Delta region, they get audited more than Westchester County,
Speaker 15: New Yorkitch County. Yes, I mean this is people just
Speaker 15: kind of shake their head when they see this. But
Speaker 15: this is not anecdotal. These are reports and this is
Speaker 15: you know, analysis that have been done. Is that the
Speaker 15: Mississippi Delta region gets audited more than Westchester County, New York.
Speaker 15: I mean, this is just shocking information for people to hear.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let me point out, is it not true that
Speaker 2: the income disparities are rather stark between those two regions
Speaker 2: of our country days.
Speaker 15: Yes, we're talking about you know, Mississipi delta about thirty
Speaker 15: thousand dollars a year median income Westchester County probably about
Speaker 15: seventy or eighty thousand on the low end.
Speaker 2: No way, Yeah, yeah, I'm sure you probably can't get
Speaker 2: in Westchester County with an eighty thousand dollars a year salary.
Speaker 2: Any they won't issue you have passed. Well, I guess
Speaker 2: is there any pending litigation on this could address the
Speaker 2: problem on a broader spectrum rather than just some individual
Speaker 2: being targeted happy to go to court, lawyer up and
Speaker 2: go after the IRS for being targeted.
Speaker 15: Well, I think what happened with the Supreme Court earlier
Speaker 15: this year with Chevron and the lo for Bright decisions
Speaker 15: really is going to put pressure on the IRS because
Speaker 15: now Congress can get in there and say, okay, you
Speaker 15: are misinterpreting. It's not your job to interpret what this means.
Speaker 15: So I think, you know, and we've talked about this
Speaker 15: before the Supreme Court cases, this is I think this
Speaker 15: is an area which really could have more definition now
Speaker 15: now that we have Loper, Bride and Chevron in our
Speaker 15: back pocket.
Speaker 2: Well, there's certainly been some great progress toward creating the
Speaker 2: environment legally speaking, to pair back the reach of the
Speaker 2: administrative state. That's one of the blessings we have with
Speaker 2: the current Supreme Court makeup, you know, the Westchester or
Speaker 2: rather the West Virginia versus EPA decision, the Chevron decision,
Speaker 2: which you just mentioned in others. Really, I mean, I
Speaker 2: think this is going to do a world of good
Speaker 2: for us in terms of trying to hold our government
Speaker 2: accountable for wealth.
Speaker 15: They're open Congress, and it's and it's up to Congress,
Speaker 15: and we need a Congress that understands what this means
Speaker 15: and moves forward. And Brian, let me just tell you
Speaker 15: during the two breaks, I went to look the lyrics
Speaker 15: of that Tool song and yeah, absolutely right, I'm reading
Speaker 15: them right now.
Speaker 2: And FCC won't allow me. Yeah, the FCC won't. I
Speaker 2: won't allow me to play much more than just a
Speaker 2: few few lines from the song. But it makes a
Speaker 2: very profound point, you know, learn to swim Libertarian message

Speaker 2: Seven forty year fifty five care the CD talk station. Actually,
Speaker 2: I was looking forward to maybe learning something. Chris Davey,
Speaker 2: the spokesperson, was gonna supposed to be in the program
Speaker 2: right now to talk about why you should vote yes
Speaker 2: on Issue one. Not reachable Jess Trekker struggling to dial
Speaker 2: him up. Was he supposed to call us? Did you
Speaker 2: call him, Joe? You got his number, just didn't answer.
Speaker 2: Interesting one of the questions one of my listeners, and
Speaker 2: well actually a dear friend of mine, John Newsom, story
Speaker 2: law enforcement career, said he's a No. One Issue one regardless.
Speaker 2: But the funding, who's paying for this? Why? And you know,
Speaker 2: and I stare at it, and you know, I got
Speaker 2: red flags flying all over the place on this first off.
Speaker 2: It is horrifically complicated to this new commission that's going
Speaker 2: to be created in this this issue one again, this
Speaker 2: is they say this is going to end jerrymandering, but
Speaker 2: it just moves jerrymandering. I guess they call it something else,
Speaker 2: is like Orwellian news speak, that they give the idea
Speaker 2: of redistricting to in this so called independent commission, and
Speaker 2: then they do it. Here's the process, this is it.
Speaker 2: The ballot language create the volent process for apporting the commissioners.
Speaker 2: Four partisan appointees on the Ohio ballot board. There'd be
Speaker 2: two Republicans and two Democrats. I guess we'll choose a
Speaker 2: panel of four partisan retired judges too affiliated with both
Speaker 2: parties right Republicans and Democrats, Independence, You're going to take
Speaker 2: a slide to sit over in the side for a while.
Speaker 2: So each selects four judges, and those judges I guess
Speaker 2: get honed down as well. They end up with a
Speaker 2: total Provide that the four legislative appointees of the Ohio
Speaker 2: Ballot Board would be responsible for reporting the panel members.
Speaker 2: As follows, Ballot Board legislative appointees affiliated with the same
Speaker 2: major political parties select eight applicants, present those to the
Speaker 2: Ballot Board appointees, who would then select two persons from
Speaker 2: the eight, resulting in four panel appointees. The panel would
Speaker 2: then hire a private professional search firm to help them
Speaker 2: choose six of the fifteen individuals on the commission. Oh,
Speaker 2: it gets worse. The panel will then choose those six
Speaker 2: individuals by initially creating a pool of ninety individuals, thirty
Speaker 2: from the first major political party, thirty from the second
Speaker 2: meaning Republicans and Democrats, and finally the independent's gonna say,
Speaker 2: thirty from neither of the first nor the second political parties. Now,
Speaker 2: I guess that could mean communists. I guess that could
Speaker 2: mean Oh, you got him. Welcome to the program. A
Speaker 2: little worried about you not coming at Chris Davey, spokesperson
Speaker 2: for the S on Issue one, Welcome to the program.
Speaker 2: It's real good to have you on here, because you know, honestly,
Speaker 2: I'm really confused over all this. Can you explain I'm
Speaker 2: going through how these panels in these committees and this
Speaker 2: whittling down process goes, and it's quite perplexing. And I'll
Speaker 2: tell you, I practice law for sixteen years.
Speaker 5: I am.
Speaker 2: And here's where I get self deprecating. I think it
Speaker 2: means nothing. I'm a member of MENSA. I can't figure
Speaker 2: this out very easily, So why would I be voting
Speaker 2: for this? Go ahead, take the reins here, Chris.
Speaker 9: Sure, good morning, Thanks for having me on. I'll try
Speaker 9: and help you out. Let me keep it simple for you.
Speaker 9: Vote yes on one.
Speaker 2: No, that's not gonna win. You're gonna have to.
Speaker 12: Hold on.
Speaker 9: Vote vote yes on Issue one to end jerrymandering by
Speaker 9: putting citizens in charge and getting politicians out of the
Speaker 9: map drawing process. Politicians have drawn jerrymandered maps seven times.
Speaker 9: They were ruled unconstitutional by the Ohio Supreme Court seven times.
Speaker 9: We're one of the ten most jerrymandered states in the country,
Speaker 9: and it causes terrible problems for us. Look at Congress. Okay,
Speaker 9: why once again do we have to be up against
Speaker 9: the fiscal cliff, on the verge of defaulting on the
Speaker 9: United States debt because we send these guys and gals
Speaker 9: of Congress. They can't even do their darn jobs. Look
Speaker 9: at the General Assembly. All they do is fight division, discord.
Speaker 13: You know, this was.
Speaker 9: One of it was the most unproductive General Assembly in
Speaker 9: three generations. You have to go back to the nineteen
Speaker 9: fifties to find the General Assembly that did as little
Speaker 9: work as the one we have here. Now why because
Speaker 9: they're all in these Jerry and Andrew districts, they don't
Speaker 9: have to answer to the voters. I'll get to your
Speaker 9: question in one second. Let me just say one more
Speaker 9: quick thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the landscape screwed up. We can agree
Speaker 2: all day long that the landscape is screwed up. The
Speaker 2: political landscape is is deadlock. We are obviously electing the
Speaker 2: wrong people to hire office. And this is the fault
Speaker 2: of the citizenry for not electing better, more competent people. Agree, agree, agree, agree.
Speaker 2: Columbus is dysfunctional as an a can be.
Speaker 9: So how do we love better people with the gerrymtaged system.
Speaker 9: Let me just give you one.
Speaker 2: For office in given district.
Speaker 9: I'm sitting here in to me. Okay, do you know
Speaker 9: how much? Do you know what percentage of the voters
Speaker 9: are independent voters?
Speaker 8: Like myself?
Speaker 3: They're not.
Speaker 9: I'm not a member of the Republican Party. I'm not
Speaker 9: a member of the Democratic Party, never have been. I'm
Speaker 9: an independent voter. Do you know what percentage of Ohioans
Speaker 9: are independent voters?
Speaker 2: Just give it a yes, Probably about say twenty percent.
Speaker 9: These days, seventy percent of Ohio voters seventy percent are
Speaker 9: independent voters.
Speaker 1: Okay, Now where voter?
Speaker 9: Where is the South district?
Speaker 2: Wait a second, give me the bibliographic reference to that
Speaker 2: particular figure. I have never seen that figure before. And
Speaker 2: I do this for a living.
Speaker 9: Going to the Secretary of State's office right now while
Speaker 9: we're on the air, and do a search for the
Speaker 9: registered voters in the state of Ohio, and you'll see
Speaker 9: the breakdown. Democrats, Republicans, they're called unaffiliated, be independent voters.
Speaker 1: Okay, And well I'll do that.
Speaker 9: While you do that, I'll tell you, well, I'm an independent.
Speaker 9: I'm sitting here in Columbus, Ohio. Alison Russo, the Democrat
Speaker 9: on the redistricting Commission, drew herself into a cozy Gerrymander district.
Speaker 9: She drew me into her legislation district. And then when
Speaker 9: I go to vote in March, well to primary. So
Speaker 9: I'm an independent, there's nothing for me to vote for.
Speaker 9: And you look on there and it's Alison Russo versus
Speaker 9: Alison Russo.
Speaker 2: I don't want to let's deal, let's tail.
Speaker 9: We said no opponent in the primary, and then this
Speaker 9: November she has no opponent in November.
Speaker 2: Listen, can we talk about how this is going to
Speaker 2: solve the problem. First off, the idea of having a
Speaker 2: divided panel, you have remembers of this party, members of
Speaker 2: that party. And then ultimately, when you get down to
Speaker 2: selecting the individuals creating the pool of ninety individuals, thirty
Speaker 2: from Republicans, thirty from the Democrats, and thirty from neither party,
Speaker 2: that would be the independent votes. We you just got
Speaker 2: done saying seventy percent of Ohio's Ohioans fall into the
Speaker 2: latter category, and yet they're not equally represented on this panel.
Speaker 2: And I guess more fundamentally, also, how do you figure
Speaker 2: out whether someone qualifies as being in either of the
Speaker 2: major parties or independent? Don't you look at their voting record?
Speaker 12: Yeah, you look at their voting all right?
Speaker 2: How have you voted? I don't know, but I mean
Speaker 2: over the years, if there's a pattern where you, as
Speaker 2: an independent, unaffiliated person with any party, have regularly voted
Speaker 2: safe for the Democrats, doesn't that make you not an independence?
Speaker 2: Merely because you're not in you haven't registered as a
Speaker 2: Democratic Republican doesn't necessarily make you politically neutral. It means
Speaker 2: you're leaning one way or another because you're left with
Speaker 2: no other choices but Republicans or Democrats in the state.
Speaker 2: So does that allow you to be in on the
Speaker 2: committee then, even though let's say hypothetically you voted for
Speaker 2: Democrats for the last twenty years, Yeah.
Speaker 9: It could. It depends on the totality of circumstances. But
Speaker 9: let me tell you this has worked in other states
Speaker 9: where it's been done. You can find qualified citizens who
Speaker 9: want to step forward and serve the state of Ohio
Speaker 9: and serve on these committees. That worked in Michigan, it's
Speaker 9: worked in Colorado, in Arizona, in Missouri, So we're not
Speaker 9: reinventing the wheel here. Citizens read commissions work. They result
Speaker 9: in more competitive districts FAARO maps in an open and
Speaker 9: transparent process, and that's what we're going to have when
Speaker 9: Ohiolands vote yes on the one the November fifth.
Speaker 2: Well, are you expecting the residents of the state of Ohio,
Speaker 2: who very very often, quite often don't have enough time
Speaker 2: to pay attention to politics generally? First off, read through
Speaker 2: this and understand it and to know that it has,
Speaker 2: in your definition worked elsewhere. I know that's a subjective
Speaker 2: conclusion based upon an advocate for a yes on Issue one.
Speaker 2: But how do we know as Ohiolans, we can't even
Speaker 2: keep track of what's going on in our backyard that
Speaker 2: it's worked or not. As the case maybe and I'm
Speaker 2: sure there's people out there who make an argument that
Speaker 2: it hasn't worked.
Speaker 9: Well, do your own research, you know, go online, look
Speaker 9: and you'll see there's all kinds of there's all kinds
Speaker 9: of studies out there that show that this has worked.
Speaker 9: And Ohiolands are smart, they'll they'll figure it out. We now, look,
Speaker 9: we've been at this for We've been at this for
Speaker 9: over a year now, We've been knocking all ye work.
Speaker 9: We've been in all eighty eight counties. We talked to
Speaker 9: voters and they do get it when you talk to
Speaker 9: them about Iowans hate jerrymandering. And when you explain to
Speaker 9: them that, well, we're going to fix it by putting citizens,
Speaker 9: not politicians, in charge of drawing the mops. They go
Speaker 9: in the match, they go, oh, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 9: That makes a ton of sense. You know, Ronald Reagan
Speaker 9: was a proponent of citizens redistricting commissions, and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, then you know what, I don't want to talk
Speaker 2: about hypotheticals under Reagan. I won't know what language he
Speaker 2: was looking at. I'm staring at something that prevents a
Speaker 2: commission member from being removed except by the vote of
Speaker 2: the veellow commission members, even for incapacity, willful neglect due
Speaker 2: to your grossmus conduct, followed by a prohibition for anybody
Speaker 2: out here in the voting public from filing a lawsuit
Speaker 2: challenging the redistricting plans.
Speaker 3: Listen.
Speaker 2: As a litigation attorney, I know that there's value in
Speaker 2: taking things to court. Obviously, that's what was the impetus
Speaker 2: behind this, because so many court battles have been fought
Speaker 2: and admittedly lost for jerrymandering. But I want the ability
Speaker 2: to go into court and argue that this too is
Speaker 2: something that is unlawful, you know, illegal, improperly done. But
Speaker 2: this deprives me of that, right, Well, no it doesn't.
Speaker 2: I just read the right one.
Speaker 9: Well, I don't know what language you're reading, but under
Speaker 9: issue one, you can take these maps to court. This
Speaker 9: is there is a provision for challenging the.
Speaker 3: Maps in court.
Speaker 2: All right, and let's leave. Let's leave on this one
Speaker 2: because this is another red flag for most of my
Speaker 2: conservative listening audience, and I'll acknowledge they mostly are, even
Speaker 2: though I describe myself as a little libertarian speaking of
Speaker 2: political neutrality, that it's backed by almost exclusively left wing organizations.
Speaker 2: Unions are all all behind this. The funding has come
Speaker 2: largely from out of state by some very left leaning,
Speaker 2: well known figures. A lot of dark money from out
Speaker 2: of state. This gives my listeners a lot of trouble
Speaker 2: and concern. So, even though maybe well intentioned, how is
Speaker 2: it that the political landscape has lined up where the
Speaker 2: Democrats are the ones largely supporting this and the Republicans
Speaker 2: are largely against it.
Speaker 9: Well, look, people are tired of this red blue us
Speaker 9: versus them, jets versus the sharks. Let's make everything be
Speaker 9: a fight to the death between these two opposing sides
Speaker 9: that you know can never get along.
Speaker 12: That's not what this is about.
Speaker 9: There are elements that want to make that what this
Speaker 9: is about, but it's not what Issue one is about.
Speaker 12: Issue one is about.
Speaker 9: Returning power to the citizens of Ohio and having citizens,
Speaker 9: not politicians, draw the legislative map so that we can
Speaker 9: finally end jerrymanderin Now. Our support comes from all across
Speaker 9: the political spectrum, and we've received small dollar donations from
Speaker 9: people in all eighty eight counties. Yes, we've received money
Speaker 9: from out of state. That's a common thing that you'll
Speaker 9: see in campaigns for elective officers. You think Bernie Moreno
Speaker 9: hasn't received money from out of state? You don't think.
Speaker 2: About This'nie Morino. All right, Well, we're out of time anyway,
Speaker 2: went way long and don't have any more time in
Speaker 2: the hours, so use it up with you. Appreciate you
Speaker 2: joining the program.
Speaker 1: All right, but yes on issue.
Speaker 2: Followed by vote no on Issue one. For me, there's
Speaker 2: my recommendation. You go ahead and choose wisely. Seven fifty

Speaker 2: It was a crazy decade the year of my birth
Speaker 2: nineteen sixty five and the year that this book begins.
Speaker 2: With My next guest, author of the book The Magical Decade,
Speaker 2: A personal memoir and popular history of nineteen sixty five
Speaker 2: through nineteen seventy five, Welcome to the Morning Show, David Chudwin.
Speaker 2: By way of background, real quick, David, to let people
Speaker 2: know who you are. Born in nineteen fifty, so he's
Speaker 2: got fifteen on me in Chicago, which is a great
Speaker 2: place to be. I suppose back then we're going to
Speaker 2: talk about that. And so he was and eyewitnessed all
Speaker 2: these things that were going on. Actually was at the
Speaker 2: Beatles concert there Comiski Park in nineteen sixty five, during
Speaker 2: the British invasion, anti war, press protesters in the moonlighting.
Speaker 2: He saw it all. Per author of I was a
Speaker 2: teenage space Reporter, which is based on his Apollo eleven experiences.
Speaker 2: He went to med school rather than stick with journalism
Speaker 2: or his end and just recently retired. Congratulations on your
Speaker 2: retirement and write and having published the book The magical decade.
Speaker 2: It's good to have you on the morning show.
Speaker 12: Thank you very much. It's a great pleasure to be here.
Speaker 2: All right, let me just throw a bunch of stuff
Speaker 2: at you in rapid fire, because I have a question
Speaker 2: that's predicated on all this. I was just sitting there
Speaker 2: thinking about I'm a student of this era. Actually it's
Speaker 2: just a real it's a fascination for me. But I
Speaker 2: go back to the Beat era, and you know Kerouac
Speaker 2: and the authors from the Beat era and how it
Speaker 2: progressed into the Hippie movement and all the cultural change
Speaker 2: that was going on, and it was amazing, which is
Speaker 2: why I find the the era so fascinating. But think
Speaker 2: about it right then and there in that decade, you
Speaker 2: got the formation of Greenpeace, got the free speech movement,
Speaker 2: and the Students for Democratic Society rioting over in Berkeley
Speaker 2: under Mario Savio, the anti war movement because Vietnam Black Panthers.
Speaker 2: You have assassinations JFK, RFK, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King,
Speaker 2: you have bombings from the Simines Libinary Liberation Army up
Speaker 2: in Chicago, your neighborhood, the Watts riots in sixty five.
Speaker 2: This is a and I'm just scratching the surface of
Speaker 2: all those things. Were you aware of how tumultuous and
Speaker 2: how transformative socially speaking a time it was while you
Speaker 2: were living at beginning at age fifteen in nineteen sixty.
Speaker 12: Five, No, I don't think I had the perspective, you know,
Speaker 12: at that age to understand really what was going on.
Speaker 12: You know, each event would come, the assassinations, the riots,
Speaker 12: the events in space, the events in Vietnam, and I
Speaker 12: didn't keep them in perspective. But years later I decided
Speaker 12: to write this book as kind of the gifts to
Speaker 12: my kids and grandparents and grandkids as far as you know,
Speaker 12: what were the sixties and seventies really like? And doing
Speaker 12: the research for the book, I got a much greater
Speaker 12: perspective on how revolutionary this decade from sixty five to
Speaker 12: seventy five was.
Speaker 2: Indeed, and let us start with something very positive, something
Speaker 2: that I think everybody appreciates this day. You can go
Speaker 2: to any radio right now anywhere. And I'm not talking
Speaker 2: about pre programmed radio or any particular identified satellite radio,
Speaker 2: but I mean, just generally speaking, they're still going to
Speaker 2: be playing music from the sixties. It was just it
Speaker 2: was like the best decade ever for music, all the
Speaker 2: British Invasion bands, which had profound influence on bands in
Speaker 2: the United States. Of course, they got their influence from
Speaker 2: all blues artists and acts. You know, musically speaking, we
Speaker 2: have I don't think we've ever had a better decade.
Speaker 2: Did you get to go to a lot of concerts?
Speaker 2: I know he went to the Beatles concert at Comisky Park,
Speaker 2: But were you aware of the awesomeness of what was
Speaker 2: coming out material wise and creativity wise?
Speaker 12: Yes, I was in the venue for appreciating the music.
Speaker 12: I was in high school then, the first part of
Speaker 12: the Magical decade. I was in high school till nineteen
Speaker 12: sixty eight, and high school had dances in the gym
Speaker 12: called sack hops because everybody had to wear socks. You
Speaker 12: couldn't wear shoes because it would wreck the basketball floor.
Speaker 12: And so I really got an appreciation for the music
Speaker 12: at these high school dances.
Speaker 2: And moving over to more tumultuous thing, well, obviously the
Speaker 2: Vietnam War was going on, clearly a lot of protesters,
Speaker 2: and I thought politically speaking, I thought it was an
Speaker 2: interesting alignment that ended up forming, which is very analogous
Speaker 2: to what's going on today, And I suppose you two
Speaker 2: can draw some parallels disparate groups sort of working together
Speaker 2: to fight against the system. You know, it was Vietnam
Speaker 2: War protesters, it was the Echo warriors, Green Peace was
Speaker 2: formed in sixty nine. Again, you had the free speech movement,
Speaker 2: but all of them seemed to coalesce into one giant
Speaker 2: coalition of protesters. I get a sense of that going
Speaker 2: on today.
Speaker 12: Well, I think it was certainly going on then. And
Speaker 12: one of the catalysts for that was disdained by a
Speaker 12: lot of young people then. For President Nixon and President
Speaker 12: Johnson before them, both were kind of undone in different
Speaker 12: ways by the Vietnam War. And there was a great
Speaker 12: antipathy among young people then for the Vietnam War, with
Speaker 12: fifty two thousand dead until the lottery was institute of
Speaker 12: the draft lottery, a very unfair draft system, and that
Speaker 12: and so young people their personal safety was at risk.
Speaker 12: You play on one thing out so much of the
Speaker 12: issues then, more than fifty years ago, are issues now
Speaker 12: they are.
Speaker 3: You look at it, voting rights.
Speaker 12: Abortion, foreign mores. It's amazing how the more things change,
Speaker 12: the more they remain the same. The issues maybe in
Speaker 12: a different context or phrase differently, But we're fighting politically
Speaker 12: over the same type of thing that we thought about
Speaker 12: in this period nineteen sixty five to seventy five.
Speaker 2: More things change the more they say the same anyway,
Speaker 2: I understand for the notes you got tear gas at
Speaker 2: the Vietnam War protests. You were getting into draft territory
Speaker 2: there at your age at that time. Am I wrong?
Speaker 12: No, You're right. And I had a student deferment, and
Speaker 12: then when the draft lottery came, I had a very
Speaker 12: high number, so I was not going to be not
Speaker 12: going to be drafted. And I don't know what I
Speaker 12: would have done had I had a load number in
Speaker 12: subject to the draft. I was against the Vietnam War
Speaker 12: when I was tear gas, though I was kind of
Speaker 12: an innocent bystander. I was a student journalist then and
Speaker 12: I covered in nineteen sixty nine the March on Washington
Speaker 12: for my college newspapers, the Michigan Daily. And it was
Speaker 12: a night before the main demonstration, and I was covering
Speaker 12: a group of protesters who were headed towards the South
Speaker 12: Vietnamese embassy. And they make a long story short, everybody
Speaker 12: in the area was tear gassed. So I had my
Speaker 12: first taste, I guess with of teary asse at that point.
Speaker 2: How about that? That's interesting. And then you also were
Speaker 2: at the first Moon launch. I know that was a
Speaker 2: subject matter of your other book. I was a teenage
Speaker 2: space reporter, right.
Speaker 12: I had been interested in space since Sputneck, which is
Speaker 12: in nineteen fifty seven. And I was a very impressionable
Speaker 12: seven year old boy then, and like a lot of
Speaker 12: boys of that era, I was fascinated by space. And
Speaker 12: when the moon landing attempt was announced for the July
Speaker 12: nineteen sixty nine, I had turned I was just turning
Speaker 12: nineteen then was able to travel by myself. So with
Speaker 12: a buddy of mine, we were able to get NASA
Speaker 12: press credentials and that was actually down there as armstrong
Speaker 12: columns and all, and lifted off towards the Moon. And
Speaker 12: it was one of the most exciting experiences of my life.
Speaker 2: I imagine. And you know, even as a four year old,
Speaker 2: I do remember the television coverage of the Moon launch.
Speaker 2: And of course, you know, one small step for man,
Speaker 2: one giant step leaf for mankind. Don't remember the words
Speaker 2: at that young age, but I do remember watching on television.
Speaker 2: I was just just fascinated by space program, and I
Speaker 2: had all kinds of rocket toys and my little Tang
Speaker 2: moon rover that came with your jar of Tang, which
Speaker 2: we drank, because that was what I guess the astronauts drank.
Speaker 2: Did you were you at this sixty eight convention by
Speaker 2: any chance, because obviously that was a rather momentous, riotous occasion.
Speaker 12: Well, luckily, in retrospect, I had had to go and
Speaker 12: start school at the University of Michigan in ann Arbor
Speaker 12: the week of the convention. They were on a trimester
Speaker 12: system and started early in August, so I just missed
Speaker 12: it that I had volunteered in the mc Eugene McCarthy
Speaker 12: campaign and would have been there if I hadn't had
Speaker 12: to go to school and friends of mine were beaten
Speaker 12: up and arrested.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a different view of law enforcement back then.
Speaker 2: There's the law enforcement folks were rather applauded for their
Speaker 2: there I say, brutality on some of the protesters. It
Speaker 2: was just sort of, you know, we're in for law
Speaker 2: and order, and these punks are out here protesting and
Speaker 2: they deserve the police baton beating that they get. I've
Speaker 2: heard many comments like that over the years. What was
Speaker 2: it like growing up in Chicago back then? I lived
Speaker 2: in Chicago between nineteen ninety and nineteen ninety eight, and
Speaker 2: I know it was obviously during that period of time
Speaker 2: even more murders and homicides per year than there is now.
Speaker 2: But it was an interesting reality living there, growing up
Speaker 2: in Cincinnati. What was it like back then? Because it
Speaker 2: was far more segregated and divided.
Speaker 12: Back then, right, Chicago was a city that was segregated,
Speaker 12: perhaps even more so than certain parts of the southern
Speaker 12: United States. There were certain neighborhoods where blacks lived in
Speaker 12: other neighborhoods that were white neighborhoods, and by a series
Speaker 12: of restrictive covenants in leases by pressure, the people in
Speaker 12: one neighborhood did not sell to people from another group,
Speaker 12: and it was very segreat. I think it's telling that
Speaker 12: doctor Martin Luther King that after he concentrated on voting
Speaker 12: rights in the South, that he came to Chicago in
Speaker 12: nineteen sixty six started a campaign for fair housing in Chicago,
Speaker 12: and there is all types of conflicts over this at
Speaker 12: that time, and I think that would be amazing to
Speaker 12: someone who lived then, that African American is now the
Speaker 12: mayor of Chicago compared to then when the mayor was
Speaker 12: long term mayor was Richard J. Day, a politician of
Speaker 12: Irish descent. So in terms of the power base of Chicago,
Speaker 12: things have really changed through the years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt about it. I guess the Harold Washington
Speaker 2: first black mayor in Chicago, and he was there between
Speaker 2: eighty three and eighty seven. Actually it was a little
Speaker 2: later than that, if I recall that. Yeah, during my
Speaker 2: closener of my time there, let me get your comments
Speaker 2: on the hipbie movement. Always fascinated by the Hibbye movement,
Speaker 2: the idea that having longer hair, which is ubiquitous these
Speaker 2: days on a guy was looked down upon by society
Speaker 2: at large. Where were you in terms of your acceptance
Speaker 2: of that philosophy, that concept, the free love and the
Speaker 2: long hair and the beautiful colors and all that relative
Speaker 2: to the more conformist you know, very tight, high and
Speaker 2: tight haircuts that men typically had. Clearly this was a
Speaker 2: divisive thing within families. What was your personal experience along
Speaker 2: those lines.
Speaker 12: Well, when I was in high school, I had a
Speaker 12: tight military type crew cut. Yeah, and that kind of
Speaker 12: laugh when I look at the pictures of myself from
Speaker 12: You Know sixty five sixty six, the start of what
Speaker 12: I call the Magical Decade. When I was in high school.
Speaker 12: Later on, I had kind of a long, bushy haircut
Speaker 12: and mustache, but it was still pretty conservative looking. But
Speaker 12: for example, a cousin of mine, the first cousin of mine,
Speaker 12: in nineteen sixty seven, went to San Francisco for the
Speaker 12: Summer of love, and he got involved with drugs and
Speaker 12: all kinds of stuffs while they are and it's created
Speaker 12: in the family a great deal of concern, and he
Speaker 12: stayed up there and joined the commune.
Speaker 2: Communes collunes and asterrams didn't work out real well for
Speaker 2: most folks because from each according's ability to each according
Speaker 2: to his need typically doesn't work out because people tend
Speaker 2: to get lazy. My observation, not necessarily yours, mister Chudwin.
Speaker 2: David Schudwin, author of the book We're Talking About Today,
Speaker 2: which you can easily get on my blog page fifty
Speaker 2: five kcy dot com. The Magical Decade, a personal memoir
Speaker 2: of and popular history of nineteen sixty five nineteen seventy five.
Speaker 2: Is it just a history of the era? You're an
Speaker 2: autobiography how do you what would you characterize this book
Speaker 2: as for we part company today.
Speaker 12: Well, I think I turned to a different perspective. It's
Speaker 12: an intersection between a personal memoir and a popular history
Speaker 12: of the era. And I was very lucky to be
Speaker 12: kind of the four scump during that decade in the
Speaker 12: middle of everything, and so I talk about my personal
Speaker 12: experiences but put it in the context of popular history.
Speaker 2: It's been a great conversation this morning. I'll strongly encourage

Speaker 2: a columnist, humorist, and impresario. Officially reserve service as President's

Speaker 2: I could go on all day long, but I want
Speaker 2: to get to the book. Welcome to the Morning Show,
Speaker 2: aj Rice. It's a distinct pleasure to have you on
Speaker 2: my program.
Speaker 17: Hey brother, great to be back. It's great to be
Speaker 17: here talking to all those very fine people out there
Speaker 17: in that audience.
Speaker 5: I know you've got some.
Speaker 2: Yes, we do, and they're the smartest audience in radio
Speaker 2: when it comes to matters political. And how dare you
Speaker 2: described as a comedy about race? Wokness? And cancel culture culture?
Speaker 2: The fact that you wrote a comedy And you obviously
Speaker 2: do some very very very funny, very very funny writing
Speaker 2: in your observations. But you know, aren't you already drawing
Speaker 2: the left's ire by daring to make fun of their stupidity?
Speaker 17: Oh yeah, I mean, look, this is a direct sequel
Speaker 17: to The Woking Dead. I you know, my writing style
Speaker 17: is I sort of talk the way I write. I'm
Speaker 17: a Philly guy, and you know I love to mock
Speaker 17: you know, the left.
Speaker 5: It's so much fun.
Speaker 17: I learned how to do it from Rush Limbaugh, from
Speaker 17: Andrew Breitbart, and you know, is as tragic as our
Speaker 17: times can be, and they can be tragic, there is
Speaker 17: you know, if we're all going to head to the
Speaker 17: gallows of Kamala wins, we might as well have some
Speaker 17: gallows humor along the way.
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna definitely get my shots in. Brother, I'm
Speaker 5: getting my shots in.
Speaker 3: Amen to that.
Speaker 2: I love doing that myself. And you point out the
Speaker 2: laziest tactic they do to divide us, and this has
Speaker 2: been going on for basically my entire lifetime, but it
Speaker 2: is effective claiming racial grievances, claiming that there's racism involving
Speaker 2: literally anything, which in Barack Obama just did it. I
Speaker 2: believe it was yesterday, speaking to specifically black men while
Speaker 2: he was a campaign in Pittsburgh, telling them that you know,
Speaker 2: you need to vote for Kamala Harris. You got an
Speaker 2: easy choice here, and I think that reason some of
Speaker 2: you aren't feeling this enthusiasm is about having a woman
Speaker 2: as president. My response is no, That is an insulting
Speaker 2: statement to make to African American men who probably are
Speaker 2: also upset about insane spending, the racial cultural shifts, global disorder,
Speaker 2: border policies which are directly impacting so many black men
Speaker 2: in inner cities. I mean, they got a lot of
Speaker 2: reasons to not the enthusiastic about Kamala Harris. But there
Speaker 2: again Barack Obama's saying it's it's a woman issue. No,
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
Speaker 17: That's right, right, So he moved from one identity to
Speaker 17: the next. Yeah, you know, you're black, you should vote Democrat?
Speaker 5: How dare you? And if you don't, it's because you,
Speaker 5: you know, are a sexist there.
Speaker 17: Yeah, well you're some sort of sexist against the first Indian,
Speaker 17: the first Canadian, the first Jamaican, whatever the hell else.
Speaker 5: She is, right, that's what you're against.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 17: It's funny I write in the book and he's so
Speaker 17: tone deaf, you know, I you know, I preferred when
Speaker 17: our first black president was the white guy from Arkansas,
Speaker 17: but then Barack Obama came along and he became he
Speaker 17: became our first black president or first half black president.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 17: In the book, I actually do a tribute to Barack
Speaker 17: Obama's white grandfather. I'm not gonna I don't want to
Speaker 17: spoiler alert. I don't want to tell anyone too much
Speaker 17: about it, but you'd be surprised that the life this
Speaker 17: man led. And if you recall when Obama was running
Speaker 17: for president, he got in trouble with Jeremiah Wright. He
Speaker 17: went to Philadelphia and he backed over his white grandfather
Speaker 17: with an eighteen wheeler. So that's what he was doing
Speaker 17: there with black voters. And in the book It's Fun,
Speaker 17: there was this moment last year. He was on some
Speaker 17: podcasts nobody listens to, and he was trying to explain
Speaker 17: why black males like Trump. You want to talk about condescension,
Speaker 17: He says, well, you know they like Trump because Trump
Speaker 17: gets talked about in some of the music, and you know,
Speaker 17: everything's blinging with Trump. He's got the Plaine, he's got
Speaker 17: the beautiful women, he's got the gold plated golf courses. Now,
Speaker 17: he never occurred to Barack Obama, who's saying in the
Speaker 17: membrane that maybe black voters might like a Republican candidate
Speaker 17: like Trump because they don't want unchecked immigration in their community.
Speaker 5: They don't want schools falling apart.
Speaker 17: They don't want to pay for gas prices out the
Speaker 17: wazoo or six dollars eggs.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 17: It's all identity politics and social justice and you're being fooled.
Speaker 17: Black mails are dumb. Trump wears gold chains. They want
Speaker 17: to vote for Trump. It's insane, it really, quite literally is,
Speaker 17: and that my.
Speaker 2: I on behalf of black people, and I've got a
Speaker 2: lot of black friends, but on behalf of them. I'm
Speaker 2: always expressing just outrage over the idea that somebody, anybody
Speaker 2: can stand up there in front of a group of
Speaker 2: black people and tell them almost quite literally, that they're
Speaker 2: not smart enough to get a photo ID to vote,
Speaker 2: that asking for a photo ID to ensure that the
Speaker 2: person voting is actually the person supposed to cast the
Speaker 2: vote and not somebody else. That that is wrong and
Speaker 2: bad for America because it's racist. Come on, I was
Speaker 2: a member of the NAACP there while Christopher Smith and
Speaker 2: a local former vice mayor, was president. I love the
Speaker 2: guy and I wanted to help him. I voted, but
Speaker 2: they required me to show a photo ID. Clearly it
Speaker 2: is not a racial thing.
Speaker 3: Brother.
Speaker 5: Look, they're scared to death.
Speaker 17: They know that Kamala is underwater with Jewish voters in
Speaker 17: Pennsylvania and Muslims in Michigan, and you know Latins in
Speaker 17: Nevada and Arizona. They see black males, married black couples
Speaker 17: moving away from the Democrat Party, and they're out there
Speaker 17: bragging about their Taylor Swift endorsement. Where they and let's
Speaker 17: be honest, they already had have the miserable unmarried single
Speaker 17: white woman vote up. They already have that. They've got
Speaker 17: that locked down. They should be worrying about all these
Speaker 17: other groups that are fleeing them, Indian Americans, Asian Americans
Speaker 17: graduating from law.
Speaker 5: School and dental school.
Speaker 17: They don't want any part of this third world cultural Marxism,
Speaker 17: which is what wokeism is. Okay, it's like social justice,
Speaker 17: physical correctness, and cancel culture.
Speaker 5: They don't want it. They're moving away from them.
Speaker 2: Well, and the funniest thing about the Harris campaign is
Speaker 2: she's trying to move away from her own beliefs and philosophies.
Speaker 2: They can't win on all the stuff you just pointed to.
Speaker 2: The reason black men may be moving away from Kamala
Speaker 2: Harris Barack Obama is because of the policies and they're
Speaker 2: busy trying to whitewash the policies. No pun intended to Concidner.
Speaker 2: The name of the book is the White Privilege Album.
Speaker 2: But whitewash all of their policies and say no, no,
Speaker 2: no no, don't believe your own eyes, don't believe your
Speaker 2: own grocery bill, don't believe the current status of the
Speaker 2: economic issue. Just listen to me, and we're we're gonna
Speaker 2: do it different this time. We're gonna have an opportunity economy.
Speaker 2: I don't even know what the hell that means.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 17: And look, the reason I call it the White Privileged
Speaker 17: Album with an apology to the Beatles, is because when
Speaker 17: they use this phrase, they're talking about three things. Three
Speaker 17: things they hate, three things they want to get rid
Speaker 17: of Western civilization.
Speaker 5: They can't stand it. The middle class. For all their
Speaker 5: talk about trying to save it, they've done everything to
Speaker 5: destroy it.
Speaker 17: It's always been the sort of economic Marxist vision to
Speaker 17: make us all peasants so that they can have a
Speaker 17: ruling elite. And the third thing is the nuclear family.
Speaker 17: And look, Black Lives Matter told us they wanted to
Speaker 17: get rid of that.
Speaker 5: If they can get rid of those three things, then
Speaker 5: you know what can be can become unburdened by what
Speaker 5: has been.
Speaker 17: Okay, they can reset everything, reset the culture, reset your diet,
Speaker 17: reset government, the church, all of it, because they want
Speaker 17: to get into your life like little termites. They want
Speaker 17: to burrow in right so that they can control you.
Speaker 17: And that is not what this country was about. And
Speaker 17: so when I say white privilege, obviously trolling the left,
Speaker 17: but they think that those thing I just named are
Speaker 17: constructs of white privilege. And the reality is, if you
Speaker 17: come here legally, you could come be part of the
Speaker 17: greatest experiment in democracy's history, and you can participate in
Speaker 17: the nuclear family, in the middle class and Western civilization.
Speaker 8: Right.
Speaker 17: So I mean, look, obviously I have some fun with it,
Speaker 17: but we can do two things at the same time. Right,
Speaker 17: we actually are a melting pot. But just because we
Speaker 17: go out, don't sink it to mayo and we drink
Speaker 17: again it's on Saint Patrick's Day and we go to
Speaker 17: yoga and we bring in different cultural things that we
Speaker 17: all like, doesn't mean we're going to throw the Magna
Speaker 17: Carta and the Bill of Rights in the trash can.
Speaker 2: Amen. My guest today, Aj Wright, author of the White
Speaker 2: Privilege album bringing racial harmony to very fine people on
Speaker 2: both sides. I presume I admittedly have not yet had
Speaker 2: a chance to read it, but I do you have
Speaker 2: a copy of my hand I'm going to dive on
Speaker 2: into it when I get home. AJ, But I presume
Speaker 2: that the word equity probably comes up in your book
Speaker 2: a few times. And when I think about the current
Speaker 2: education system in public schools where children in the eighth
Speaker 2: grade cannot read, I mean a vast majority not able
Speaker 2: to read or perform mathematical calculations on grade level, I
Speaker 2: think about them being advanced to the next level and
Speaker 2: on and on until such point where they're overwhelmed with
Speaker 2: material they do not understand. And then I think of equity,
Speaker 2: and that means that those children who didn't perform could
Speaker 2: still nonetheless be put into positions like, oh, I don't
Speaker 2: know my doctor. I don't want an equity doctor. You
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. I don't care what color skin
Speaker 2: they have or what religion they are, and I don't
Speaker 2: want somebody who's been advanced through a dumb education system
Speaker 2: and give them a scalpel.
Speaker 17: That's right, you were supposed to amputate the other lag doctor. Yeah,
Speaker 17: look that's what they want. They want they don't want
Speaker 17: equal opportunity, they want equal outcome. Yes, so they're trying
Speaker 17: to legislate and push along equal outcomes.
Speaker 5: And you know it used to just be in the
Speaker 5: language arts. Excuse me, Now it's in mass it's in science.
Speaker 17: Things that actually have quantitative I know, you know, definition,
Speaker 17: things that one won equals two.
Speaker 7: But you know, and I talk about that even in
Speaker 7: the first chapter where if everything's racist, math is racist,
Speaker 7: science is racist, language, arts is racist, American history obviously
Speaker 7: always is going to be, then nothing is.
Speaker 5: And but that's what they're pumping into these skulls full
