00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.200
<v Speaker 1>John, Thank you very much. Good morning, Welcome to Thursday.

2
00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:05.320
<v Speaker 2>As we like to say, Thursday is the new Friday

3
00:00:05.320 --> 00:00:07.480
<v Speaker 2>here in news Radio EID forty WHS.

4
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:07.919
<v Speaker 1>It is.

5
00:00:08.519 --> 00:00:11.880
<v Speaker 2>Excuse me, July seventeenth. I'm Scott Fitzgerald. John Alden's in

6
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:14.240
<v Speaker 2>studio D and you heard John shit and there nick

7
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:17.960
<v Speaker 2>coffee taking care of some personal business. He'll be back

8
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:22.120
<v Speaker 2>with us sun tomorrow morning, starting at five o'clock and

9
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:24.760
<v Speaker 2>get you going into the weekend. As John mentioned, we

10
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:27.920
<v Speaker 2>are dealing with a case of the measles here in Louisville,

11
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.440
<v Speaker 2>and we were talking about vaccinations earlier. We'll talk more

12
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.600
<v Speaker 2>about that coming up on Kentucky Focus this weekend. I

13
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:37.280
<v Speaker 2>talk with some folks there and plus Generative AI, and

14
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:39.159
<v Speaker 2>it's a big part of classrooms right now.

15
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:41.200
<v Speaker 1>It's a big part of our lives. It's not going away.

16
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:43.320
<v Speaker 2>The genie is out of the bottle, So how can

17
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.719
<v Speaker 2>we best manage that and work as parents and educators

18
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.240
<v Speaker 2>with our children as the new school year starts. We'll

19
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:54.799
<v Speaker 2>also talk about that coming up on Kentucky Focus this weekend. Meanwhile,

20
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:56.920
<v Speaker 2>we're sort of dealing with a dilemma here at news

21
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:00.359
<v Speaker 2>Radio eight forty WHS. Our coffee maker is out here again.

22
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:02.520
<v Speaker 1>That means no coffee for folks.

23
00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:06.200
<v Speaker 2>It started last Saturday when Joe and Jack Avino came

24
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.400
<v Speaker 2>in John, and she poked her head in the door.

25
00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>I sit here in the studio on Saturday's wee kah

26
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:13.599
<v Speaker 2>and she poked her head in the door, and she goes,

27
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.640
<v Speaker 2>is the coffee maker not working? I think those are

28
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:20.159
<v Speaker 2>the Those are almost the worst words you can hear.

29
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:22.359
<v Speaker 2>Next too, I don't think the air conditioners working. Yeah,

30
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.200
<v Speaker 2>those are two both both very bad scenarios. You wake

31
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:26.959
<v Speaker 2>up in the morning and you just see your debagie

32
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:29.400
<v Speaker 2>rising on your air conditioner, and you're like, you know

33
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:32.319
<v Speaker 2>what's coming. So the coffee maker has not worked all week,

34
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:35.280
<v Speaker 2>so we've all had to improvise. I've switched over to

35
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>the energy drinks. John, you are making coffee at home now, thankfully.

36
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.719
<v Speaker 3>So you told me on Monday morning, early Monday morning

37
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:45.519
<v Speaker 3>that you really that was going to be out, and

38
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:48.200
<v Speaker 3>so I was already heading out that day. I stopped

39
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.879
<v Speaker 3>at a gas station the first couple of days heading in,

40
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:52.879
<v Speaker 3>and then I realized I can't be doing that every

41
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 3>single day. So I'm like, you know what I'm gonna

42
00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:57.200
<v Speaker 3>set up the coffee maker overnight, like an old school

43
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:00.000
<v Speaker 3>way of doing things, and you know, just wake up

44
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:02.280
<v Speaker 3>in the morning, feed the baby, turn on the coffee pot,

45
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:03.920
<v Speaker 3>and there it is ready for me as I'm getting

46
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.359
<v Speaker 3>ready to go. It's not the most convenient thing, but

47
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:08.319
<v Speaker 3>it is at the same time and save me some money.

48
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:10.439
<v Speaker 3>And so I'm glad I'm able to do that. But

49
00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:12.080
<v Speaker 3>at the same time, I do miss having that here

50
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.039
<v Speaker 3>because that only allows me one cup of coffee the

51
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:17.159
<v Speaker 3>way that I'm doing things now, whereas I can have

52
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:19.960
<v Speaker 3>as much as I want whenever the coffee maker's working here.

53
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:21.960
<v Speaker 1>How long does your cough?

54
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:23.919
<v Speaker 2>I'll see your coffee buzz last year if you have

55
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.560
<v Speaker 2>a cup of coffee when you going for that second cup, I.

56
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.000
<v Speaker 3>Try to spread them out two hours apart in the morning,

57
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:32.360
<v Speaker 3>just so I'm not doing it overdoing it in one

58
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:35.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, go. But I do like to just kind

59
00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:37.680
<v Speaker 3>of have a warm drink, and so it is tempting

60
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 3>to just go from one cup immediately to the second one,

61
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:41.439
<v Speaker 3>but I do try to spread them out.

62
00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:43.599
<v Speaker 2>See you're like me, and when we were talking off

63
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.240
<v Speaker 2>the air, I'll pop it every half hour. But see

64
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:51.120
<v Speaker 2>and see there's smaller cups. I still use the styrophone

65
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.159
<v Speaker 2>cups they give us here at the station. Okay, yeah,

66
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 2>I've used my own coffee cup before, but one I

67
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:00.319
<v Speaker 2>either lose it, or I break it, or I leave

68
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:03.000
<v Speaker 2>it here. So the station provides us with the styrofoam cubs.

69
00:03:03.479 --> 00:03:06.039
<v Speaker 2>And to your point, it's about thirty degrees.

70
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.879
<v Speaker 1>In each of these studios. And since the weight loss,

71
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I get colder faster.

72
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.639
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, so it's a comfort thing for me to

73
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 2>have that cup of coffee in my hand in the morning.

74
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.400
<v Speaker 2>My problem is I need to take your advice because

75
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:21.919
<v Speaker 2>if I'm popping a cup every half hour, I'm not

76
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 2>necessarily flying off the walls. But I certainly by the

77
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.240
<v Speaker 2>time we get to about eight o'clock, i'm done with coffee.

78
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:31.439
<v Speaker 2>And I hate doing that because I've discovered and I

79
00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:33.080
<v Speaker 2>don't know if it's an age thing, and I don't

80
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 2>know what it is. But you know, Saturday afternoon, I

81
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.120
<v Speaker 2>have no beef with making myself a cup of coffee

82
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:41.840
<v Speaker 2>because I like to taste, not because I'm tired, just

83
00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:42.719
<v Speaker 2>because I like taste.

84
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:45.759
<v Speaker 3>I could drink coffee all day, every day if it

85
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:48.439
<v Speaker 3>didn't have the you know, the after effects of it.

86
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:52.879
<v Speaker 2>Sure, Sure, and my daughter bought one of those espressos,

87
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 2>which I've come to find myself being.

88
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm my own little personal barista. Like I experiment with it.

89
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:00.840
<v Speaker 1>So I'll throw and like I make.

90
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'll get the espresso cups and I'll throw those

91
00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:05.560
<v Speaker 2>in and start throwing some. I didn't used to be

92
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:07.879
<v Speaker 2>a sugar coffee. Straight black coffee. That's what I like,

93
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:10.159
<v Speaker 2>and that's what I drink in the mornings here. But

94
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.080
<v Speaker 2>on the weekends I like to try to mess around,

95
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:14.319
<v Speaker 2>and especially come Christmas time, it's nice because you can

96
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:16.560
<v Speaker 2>play around with the cinnamon and all that stuff and

97
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:21.680
<v Speaker 2>make that. But apparently, apparently, worldwide, it's estimated that over

98
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:24.720
<v Speaker 2>two billion cups of coffee are consumed every day.

99
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Well I don't one hundred percent believe.

100
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>Then I do too, and it's it's a little different

101
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:32.480
<v Speaker 2>now because I don't know what was the case when

102
00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:34.879
<v Speaker 2>you were growing up, But when I was growing up,

103
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:36.639
<v Speaker 2>it was like folks just had coffee in the morning.

104
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 1>That was it.

105
00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:40.319
<v Speaker 2>There were no coffee shops on every corner. You had

106
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:43.480
<v Speaker 2>coffee shops, you had coffee and donut shops, but people

107
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:45.879
<v Speaker 2>weren't drinking coffee like they are now, and of course

108
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 2>that's expanded into energy drinks, and as I mentioned, I'm

109
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:51.800
<v Speaker 2>drinking the energy drink in the morning, which is getting

110
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:54.720
<v Speaker 2>me by It goes on to say that here in

111
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:57.959
<v Speaker 2>the United States, by the way, sixty six percent of

112
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Americans drink coffee every day. It's about one hundred and

113
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:04.720
<v Speaker 2>fifty million daily coffee drinkers in the US alone.

114
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:06.720
<v Speaker 3>Do you have a cut off for yourself in the evening?

115
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:08.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, oh yeah, I can't drink it in the evening.

116
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:12.040
<v Speaker 3>Before before I switched over to early mornings with you guys,

117
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.199
<v Speaker 3>I could do a cup of coffee as late as

118
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 3>eight o'clock at night. If I do that, now that's

119
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:19.079
<v Speaker 3>a mistake. Well, I think it's about five or six

120
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:20.560
<v Speaker 3>o'clock because this as late as I'll do a cup

121
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:21.000
<v Speaker 3>of coffee.

122
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Nowadayeah, you'll be up. You'll be up all night.

123
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:25.959
<v Speaker 2>And then in some cases for you, if you're up

124
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.079
<v Speaker 2>feeding Daisy, that kind of comes in handy.

125
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 1>This, that's true.

126
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:31.399
<v Speaker 3>Thankful, she's getting to the point to where she is sleeping,

127
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:33.240
<v Speaker 3>not all the way through the night, but we only

128
00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:35.160
<v Speaker 3>get up to feed her once, and it's right before

129
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:37.199
<v Speaker 3>I get ready to come here. So that kind of

130
00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:39.000
<v Speaker 3>just works out with my my current you know, the

131
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:40.399
<v Speaker 3>regular schedule if you will.

132
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Speaker 1>You know, and do you do this sugar and cream

133
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:46.399
<v Speaker 1>type thing or all black coffee? Yep. See. What's interesting though,

134
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.279
<v Speaker 1>is that you know, we're going on what day three now.

135
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:52.360
<v Speaker 2>Without a coffee maker, and unfortunately we have coffee. We

136
00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:54.680
<v Speaker 2>have a couple of coffee shops close by. That's true,

137
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:58.079
<v Speaker 2>just leave the office and go down there. But for folks,

138
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:00.879
<v Speaker 2>when you walk in that office and there's no coffee

139
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:03.600
<v Speaker 2>and you're used to coffee being there, that's a problem

140
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:05.959
<v Speaker 2>for a lot of people. So we'll see, hopefully we

141
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:08.319
<v Speaker 2>get it fixed and whatnot as we move on through

142
00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:10.639
<v Speaker 2>here in the morning. Fortunately, they keep our fridge stocked

143
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:13.199
<v Speaker 2>with some caffeinated drinks if we'd like those.

144
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:15.759
<v Speaker 1>They take care of us here at iHeart.

145
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:19.079
<v Speaker 2>We're we're not starving to stay awake here, So speaking

146
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:21.560
<v Speaker 2>of that, we're back after this. John, It's John Alden

162
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:07.800
<v Speaker 4>idea that there was only there's only one day a

168
00:07:19.959 --> 00:07:21.759
<v Speaker 1>Soone comes to hate when it's Tony Vannetti.

169
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:26.800
<v Speaker 4>There's several things that irritate me. There's some hate and

170
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:29.439
<v Speaker 4>irritate like people that walk around a store with their

171
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:34.720
<v Speaker 4>speaker on and talking out loud. They're holding a platter

172
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:36.839
<v Speaker 4>and it's and they're talking so loud and we can

173
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:39.399
<v Speaker 4>hear the person on the phone. You're just like, dude,

174
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:41.000
<v Speaker 4>are you what what said to you?

175
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:41.199
<v Speaker 1>From?

176
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:43.079
<v Speaker 4>It's crazy, you know, because.

177
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:45.959
<v Speaker 2>One of the things in my dislikes are loud sneezers

178
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:47.240
<v Speaker 2>and repetitive sneezers.

179
00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:50.399
<v Speaker 1>So it was really for turn my wife, because she

180
00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:54.240
<v Speaker 1>is that person. So I'm in her story four in

181
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:57.800
<v Speaker 1>a row. Yes, I'm in the store the other day

182
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's people that sneeze and loud yawners.

183
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:07.839
<v Speaker 4>Yes they Oh, thank you, John, so good.

00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:14.240
<v Speaker 1>There's not a list long enough.

187
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:18.480
<v Speaker 4>No, he again, we think lockeall McLean is gonna call in.

188
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:22.519
<v Speaker 4>He is the king of hate. Okay, but Dwight. Dwight

189
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.439
<v Speaker 4>thinks he's low maintenance, or he thinks he's he thinks

190
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:28.920
<v Speaker 4>he's low maintenance. He is high maintenance. Everything irritates. Yeah, okay,

191
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:30.720
<v Speaker 4>Well we'll get him in here and he'll he'll get

192
00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:31.079
<v Speaker 4>on a roll.

193
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:34.039
<v Speaker 3>John, what do you hate? I hate a lot of things.

194
00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:37.120
<v Speaker 3>I'll start with this. I hate the downtown traffic lights.

195
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:39.720
<v Speaker 3>Whatever traffic light system we have right now, it does

196
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:42.759
<v Speaker 3>not work for cars. It's catered to humans, and there's

197
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:45.600
<v Speaker 3>not enough humans walking downtown for it to cater to that.

198
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:46.080
<v Speaker 4>That is true.

199
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:48.240
<v Speaker 2>If if you come down early enough, it's like a

200
00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:50.519
<v Speaker 2>zombie walking. You gotta keep your head on a swivel

201
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:53.200
<v Speaker 2>now because you've got people wandering around and you don't

202
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:53.559
<v Speaker 2>see him.

203
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:56.639
<v Speaker 3>There's more people wandering around downtown than there are actual

204
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.279
<v Speaker 3>people trying to use the crosswalk.

205
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:02.000
<v Speaker 4>I think, well, yes, clear or washing themselves naked in

206
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.720
<v Speaker 4>the spring about the hotels. But I think there will

207
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:09.159
<v Speaker 4>be several things that everyone hates. Yeah, right, Like the

208
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:12.799
<v Speaker 4>guy that gets up when the plane lands, stands in

209
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:14.600
<v Speaker 4>the in the h You know he's way back, but

210
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:18.600
<v Speaker 4>he stands in the aisle. You just saved yourself ten seconds. Congratulations, right,

211
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.919
<v Speaker 4>But every one of the planes like, oh there you go.

212
00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Do they still clap when the plane lands.

213
00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:26.039
<v Speaker 4>When it's a rough landing, you know, thank God God.

214
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, before we get out here, Tony, I did when

215
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:30.879
<v Speaker 2>I had the opportunity to talk to you. Both you

216
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.000
<v Speaker 2>and I are close to the archdis is a little

217
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:36.840
<v Speaker 2>the Catholic Education Foundation, you are a big spokesperson for them.

218
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:40.080
<v Speaker 1>A big advocate for them. Heart how are they doing

219
00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:40.519
<v Speaker 1>this year?

220
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:44.759
<v Speaker 4>Great? Thirty six hundred kids heard the answer. Yes, this

221
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.720
<v Speaker 4>is an opportunity for kids and families that can't afford

222
00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:50.759
<v Speaker 4>to go to Catholic school. We will will pay for it.

223
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:53.440
<v Speaker 4>But they have they have a little a stake in it.

224
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:55.440
<v Speaker 4>They pay a little bit, they work at the schools

225
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.279
<v Speaker 4>and doing all that kind of stuff. But thirty six

226
00:09:57.360 --> 00:09:59.720
<v Speaker 4>hundred kids that could not have gone and it changes

227
00:09:59.759 --> 00:10:02.320
<v Speaker 4>their li And this is all private money. This isn't

228
00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:05.360
<v Speaker 4>government money, this isn't state money. This is thirty This

229
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:07.799
<v Speaker 4>is thirty six hundred kids. Seven million every year. So

230
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 4>January one we start over and we raised seven million dollars.

231
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:14.440
<v Speaker 4>Again that's the community because you know that, you know,

232
00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:17.639
<v Speaker 4>if you give a kid a base anything that life

233
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:21.360
<v Speaker 4>throws at him later divorces and losing a job or

234
00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:23.559
<v Speaker 4>whatever it is, you can handle it if you go

235
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 4>to those schools where the teachers care and the curriculum

236
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.759
<v Speaker 4>is a little bit better and they give you a

237
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:31.720
<v Speaker 4>base for life. And that's what the Catholic Education Foundation.

238
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:35.080
<v Speaker 4>John Asher was one of the original founders of the

239
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:38.399
<v Speaker 4>Catholic Education Foundation, and when he passed away, they asked

240
00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:40.039
<v Speaker 4>me to be involved and I could not say no.

241
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.960
<v Speaker 4>And I had no idea what I was getting into,

242
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:44.639
<v Speaker 4>but for the good, Like I didn't know how my

243
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:45.960
<v Speaker 4>heart would just connect to this.

244
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:47.799
<v Speaker 2>And you guys, of course a big part of the

245
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:50.440
<v Speaker 2>salute to the game lunch in between Santex and Trinity. Yes,

246
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:53.759
<v Speaker 2>that's a big, big stepping stone. Now folks are listening

247
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:56.720
<v Speaker 2>and they may not have heard of the Catholic Education Foundation.

248
00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:59.559
<v Speaker 2>They want to pursue. Yeah, how do they get involved

249
00:10:59.600 --> 00:10:59.720
<v Speaker 2>in that?

250
00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:03.240
<v Speaker 4>Dot org? Go to the website. You do not have

251
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:06.200
<v Speaker 4>to be Catholic to go to Catholic school. You understand

252
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:08.799
<v Speaker 4>that you do not have to be affiliated with with

253
00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:11.240
<v Speaker 4>the with the religion to go to school. Plenty of

254
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:14.639
<v Speaker 4>kids don't, right, so that's the number one thing. Well,

255
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.919
<v Speaker 4>my kids, we're not Catholic. Doesn't matter, all right. You

256
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:19.240
<v Speaker 4>want a choice, and again you give them that first

257
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:21.519
<v Speaker 4>through eighth grade. They'll probably make a choice for one

258
00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:24.759
<v Speaker 4>of the Big five schools, but doesn't matter where they

259
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:26.799
<v Speaker 4>go from there because they'll have the base. So go

260
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:30.519
<v Speaker 4>to the Catholic Education Foundation. Website apply and of course

261
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:33.240
<v Speaker 4>our slug line is the answer is yes.

262
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:36.200
<v Speaker 1>That's outstanding. And again you're hosting the salute to the

263
00:11:36.240 --> 00:11:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Game lunch, and.

264
00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:41.080
<v Speaker 4>Again Holy we have Coach Kelsey is a huge Catholic

265
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:45.320
<v Speaker 4>from Cincinnati. He's part of the Holy Trinity Parish. His

266
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:47.639
<v Speaker 4>son's a little basketball player, I think in fifth grade

267
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:49.840
<v Speaker 4>or something at Holy Trinity. He's going to jump up

268
00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:52.759
<v Speaker 4>at the beginning of the luncheon and do his why

269
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:54.240
<v Speaker 4>I'm a Catholic, Da da dah.

270
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:58.240
<v Speaker 2>As he formed an allegiance yet to any one of

271
00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.159
<v Speaker 2>the Catholic schools here?

272
00:11:59.200 --> 00:11:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Is he going to stay?

273
00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:02.759
<v Speaker 4>Well you meet high schools. Yeah, I don't know yet

274
00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:05.600
<v Speaker 4>because I think his kids are his daughter's r at Assumption.

275
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:09.080
<v Speaker 4>Maybe okay, but I don't know about the sun yet.

276
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:10.080
<v Speaker 4>That'll be a big question.
