<v Speaker 1>Five o five.

00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:14.560
<v Speaker 2>If you do have k r C the talk station,

<v Speaker 2>Happy Friday, says a vacation, there's a woohoo for Friday.

5
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:39.119
<v Speaker 2>lot of positive stuff going on, particularly out in the

00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:42.679
<v Speaker 2>fires out west. Get to that in a moment. Bright

7
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 2>the time's here. Wishing everyone of every happy Friday, and uh,

<v Speaker 2>good morning to executive producer Joe Stracker. Appreciate the job

00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:49.799
<v Speaker 2>he does each and every day here on the fifty

10
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:53.119
<v Speaker 2>five KRC Morning Show, including winding up the guests like yes,

11
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:58.399
<v Speaker 2>it is Tech Friday with Dave Hatter day six thirty

12
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:01.560
<v Speaker 2>every Friday for out of the gate for the calendar year,

13
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:04.480
<v Speaker 2>at least for me, met his fact checking well firm

14
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:09.120
<v Speaker 2>that got sacked by Mark Zuckerberg. Of course, no one's

15
00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:11.560
<v Speaker 2>giving him a pass for working and cooperating with the

16
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Department of Justice and suppressing all kinds of information, most

17
00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:19.319
<v Speaker 2>notably factual information relating to COVID. Reminding you to go

18
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:22.439
<v Speaker 2>back and listen to my interview with Congressman brad Winstrip

19
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:26.200
<v Speaker 2>about the COVID report. FBI China accused the US government

20
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:30.359
<v Speaker 2>devices and networks are access for other US government devices

21
00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:32.120
<v Speaker 2>and networks. We've already gone over that a little bit.

22
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.920
<v Speaker 2>This week we'll get the real details from Dave Hatter,

23
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:37.680
<v Speaker 2>who has a broader and greater understanding of that kind

24
00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:41.200
<v Speaker 2>of thing. Plus phishing attacks. You thought they were bad,

25
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.200
<v Speaker 2>they doubled in counter year twenty twenty four. So those

26
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.000
<v Speaker 2>are our topics with Dave coming up at six thirty

27
00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:51.200
<v Speaker 2>hour of power. Todd Zendzer and I like the label

28
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:55.040
<v Speaker 2>Joe Strekker applied to Todd Zenser, our watchdog of city

29
00:01:55.120 --> 00:02:02.000
<v Speaker 2>council and commissioners County commissioners. Todd brilliant man. He'll be

30
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 2>in studio. We'll be talking about the recent shootings in

31
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Price Hill at what was going on in council on Wednesday?

32
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.479
<v Speaker 2>He was there, what was discussed? At least he was

33
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:14.639
<v Speaker 2>there and probably wasn't anybody from local news there. And finally,

34
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:23.439
<v Speaker 2>do we need a new arena? We'll be paying for

35
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:28.199
<v Speaker 2>that one anyway. Our wine some friend Keegan corcor In

36
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:31.719
<v Speaker 2>fifty five k s wine Sammie. He'll be joining us

37
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:34.759
<v Speaker 2>just via telephone, so there will be no fake drinking

38
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:38.319
<v Speaker 2>going on in the studio. But why dry January which

39
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:39.439
<v Speaker 2>is which is a thing?

40
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:41.319
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

41
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:44.240
<v Speaker 2>He claims it harms the hospitality and retail businesses. And

42
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:47.719
<v Speaker 2>I put up a Facebook post about that, and by

43
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:52.680
<v Speaker 2>all accounts, apparently stirred a big pot of of dissent

44
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 2>anger maybe varying opinions on whether or not it does

45
00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:00.319
<v Speaker 2>hurt the hospitality retail business. How many people actually uh

46
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:06.000
<v Speaker 2>doing dry? January? Joj do you have any shlivovitz yet

47
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:11.719
<v Speaker 2>this year? You have not been dry? But not shlivovitz? Okay,

48
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:17.039
<v Speaker 2>fair enough, Joe Huker's celebratory drink of choice. You haven't

49
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:20.520
<v Speaker 2>ever drank shlivovitz. Boy, it packs the punch. Let's just

50
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.199
<v Speaker 2>put it that way. H And finally, eight thirty, Rebecca

51
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 2>Cerndorf Ohioans for Child Protection apparently Mike Dwaine finally signed

52
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.639
<v Speaker 2>the legislation. It took years to get past. And we'll

53
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.080
<v Speaker 2>be talking about, you know, the start to finish journey

54
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 2>that Rebecca went on, behalf of protecting children here in

55
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:38.840
<v Speaker 2>the state of Ohio. That at eight thirty, And of

56
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 2>course between now and then, like in times right now,

57
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:44.840
<v Speaker 2>no guests on the phone, no guests in the studio,

58
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 2>feel free to call five one, three, seven, four nine

59
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:49.280
<v Speaker 2>fifty five hundred eight hundred and eighty two three talk

60
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:52.039
<v Speaker 2>goth pound five to fifty on AT and T phones.

61
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 2>So what's going on at in La death holl up

62
00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:56.960
<v Speaker 2>to ten? You heard that at the top of the

63
00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:00.960
<v Speaker 2>UR news, which is you know, honestly when you I

64
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.680
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you've looked online at the photographs, it's

65
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:13.159
<v Speaker 2>not to negate the devastation or the human carnage because

66
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:15.159
<v Speaker 2>we are at ten people. And this is kind of

67
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 2>the point I'm making. It looks like Nagasaki after the

68
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:25.079
<v Speaker 2>bomb was dropped, or Hiroshima. Some of these neighborhoods. There's

69
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 2>multiple images online that before and after when some of

70
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.639
<v Speaker 2>them have that little slide bar down the middle where

71
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:33.920
<v Speaker 2>you can look at what it looked like before and

72
00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.800
<v Speaker 2>what it looked like after. I mean, it literally looks

73
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:41.240
<v Speaker 2>like a massive bomb was dropped over all these neighborhoods.

74
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:45.519
<v Speaker 2>And the price of the homes like this specific Palisades neighborhood,

75
00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:48.839
<v Speaker 2>I think they said the average, the median or the

76
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.279
<v Speaker 2>sort of mid price of the homes there three and

77
00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:55.839
<v Speaker 2>a half million dollars a pop. We'll get to the

78
00:04:55.879 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Speaker 2>insurance realities of that sometime this morning. And there's no

79
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:04.680
<v Speaker 2>doubt in my mind in prayers to anybody who's lost

80
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:11.920
<v Speaker 2>anything out there, unlike some people Keith Oldman, for example,

81
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:18.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, sort of making fun of or otherwise piling

82
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:22.240
<v Speaker 2>on people who've lost James Wood's not a real fan

83
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.600
<v Speaker 2>among the Hollywood leftist because of course he's one of

84
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 2>the few conservatives. He lost his home, and I guess

85
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.199
<v Speaker 2>some people were making fun of him, telling him got

86
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:32.800
<v Speaker 2>what he deserved, and that's not appropriate. And that's kind

87
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:34.240
<v Speaker 2>of the point I'm trying to make here. I don't

88
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:38.040
<v Speaker 2>wish anyone this kind of this terrible, terrible reality to

89
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>befall them, but I think it's pretty safe to assume

90
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:43.160
<v Speaker 2>that the death Hole is not going to stay at

91
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:51.879
<v Speaker 2>double at ten anyway. They're still struggling to contain the blazes.

92
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:56.079
<v Speaker 2>At least five of these fires are still burning. I mean,

93
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.240
<v Speaker 2>they're infernos, it's just many of them not contained at all.

94
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:05.199
<v Speaker 2>They're burning simultaneously all around Los Angeles. Entire neighborhoods engulfed.

95
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:09.920
<v Speaker 2>More than ten thousand and counting structures have been burned

96
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:14.600
<v Speaker 2>to the ground. Medical examiner again gave the new death hole.

97
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:20.279
<v Speaker 2>Los Angeles County Chef Robert Luna, speaking at a briefing

98
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:24.600
<v Speaker 2>yesterday evening, the obvious question is do you think it's

99
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.279
<v Speaker 2>going to grow? Refering to the death, County said, I'm

100
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:29.720
<v Speaker 2>praying a dozen, but based on the devastation, it looks

101
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>like an atomic bomb dropped in these areas. I'm not

102
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:39.199
<v Speaker 2>expecting good news exactly. So far, economic losses have been

103
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:42.040
<v Speaker 2>estimated in the tens of billions of dollars. I've seen

104
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:46.879
<v Speaker 2>figures from fifty billion to one hundred and thirty billion dollars.

105
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:51.480
<v Speaker 2>Of course, thousands of people no longer have a place

106
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:59.120
<v Speaker 2>to live, more than what two hundred thousand plus people

107
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:04.360
<v Speaker 2>without power, three hundred and sixty thousand plus people under

108
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:09.160
<v Speaker 2>a mandatory evacuation order, and one that accidentally issued for

109
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:12.800
<v Speaker 2>the entire Los Angeles County, which I believe contains ten

110
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:16.279
<v Speaker 2>million people. It was a woops moment everybody get out

111
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:20.040
<v Speaker 2>of a Los Angeles County like, well what And I'm

112
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:23.279
<v Speaker 2>not certain that you know that you know these fires

113
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:26.839
<v Speaker 2>could actually engulf all of Los Angeles County, but consider

114
00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:32.439
<v Speaker 2>that as a possibility. How did ten million people evacuate,

115
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:40.879
<v Speaker 2>especially when you know you're surrounded by wildfires. Pacivic Palis

116
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Sage neighborhood absolutely just wiped out. Five thousand, three hundred

117
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:51.839
<v Speaker 2>homps so far been destroyed, including businesses. And that's the

118
00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:54.240
<v Speaker 2>other element of it. Okay, First off, where do these

119
00:07:54.279 --> 00:08:02.399
<v Speaker 2>people stay? And if their businesses burned down, and a

120
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:04.519
<v Speaker 2>lot of them did, they're not going to be going

121
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:11.680
<v Speaker 2>to work anytime soon. The ripple effect of this kind

122
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 2>of thing is just almost overwhelming when you start contemplating

123
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>the subtleties and the sub layers that go on when

124
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:24.800
<v Speaker 2>entire neighborhoods and city size swaths of land just disappear

125
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:26.800
<v Speaker 2>in a moment's notice. I mean, this thing's only been

126
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:29.759
<v Speaker 2>going on for three and a half days. The Eaton

127
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:33.919
<v Speaker 2>fire and Pasadena area damaged more than five thousand structures.

128
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:38.000
<v Speaker 2>It was this thirteen thousand, six hundred acre fire yesterday.

129
00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:41.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure if they made any progress since yesterday.

130
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:44.840
<v Speaker 2>It is early in the morning. A new fire broke

131
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:49.120
<v Speaker 2>out yesterday afternoon. West Hills neighborhood of LA's San Fernando

132
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Valley lit up, started spreading in the neighboring Ventura County,

133
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:58.279
<v Speaker 2>quickly growing to one thousand acres, and officials had to

134
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:02.240
<v Speaker 2>issue new evacuation orders in morning for those regions, saying

135
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:04.919
<v Speaker 2>that it was likely to grow rapidly because of yes

136
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:13.600
<v Speaker 2>the winds continue to blow and most of them uncontained. Yesterday,

137
00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:21.799
<v Speaker 2>of course, firefighter resources stretched to the limits, smoke literally everywhere,

138
00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:25.639
<v Speaker 2>and even where the fires aren't close by and jeopardizing buildings,

139
00:09:25.679 --> 00:09:28.639
<v Speaker 2>They've still had to shut down schools because, well, the

140
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:31.639
<v Speaker 2>air quality index is so bad. I guess people can't breathe.

141
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:33.840
<v Speaker 2>But part of me wanted to say, well, if you

142
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.960
<v Speaker 2>can't breathe in a school and you close the schools

143
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:40.279
<v Speaker 2>because of that, well where are you going to go

144
00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:45.120
<v Speaker 2>to breathe? Since the entire area is basically filled with smoke.

145
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:54.120
<v Speaker 2>President Biden said that the federal government's going to be

146
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.440
<v Speaker 2>covering one hundred percent of the disaster response for one

147
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:58.720
<v Speaker 2>hundred and eighty days. That's up from the seventy five

148
00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:02.600
<v Speaker 2>percent and normally covers corner to Biden, I told the

149
00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:05.279
<v Speaker 2>governor local officials spare no expense to do what they

150
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:07.919
<v Speaker 2>need to do to contain these fires. Can they turn

151
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.879
<v Speaker 2>the water on? That's been a real problem for the

152
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.120
<v Speaker 2>residents of Los Angeles, and I think if there's one

153
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:17.480
<v Speaker 2>major criticism we can levy on them, shouldn't you at

154
00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:21.440
<v Speaker 2>least adequately prepare for water pressure. You live in a

155
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:27.000
<v Speaker 2>dam tinderbox brought about largely from just well ignoring the problem.

156
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:30.360
<v Speaker 2>And there are many out there screaming about global warming.

157
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:34.360
<v Speaker 2>Bernie Sanders blaming global warming on this. Eight hundred or

158
00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:37.879
<v Speaker 2>eighty thousand people told to evacuate plazes, zero percent contained

159
00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:40.600
<v Speaker 2>eight months, since the area is seen rained, The scale

160
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:44.759
<v Speaker 2>of damage and losses unimaginable. Climate change is real, not

161
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:49.799
<v Speaker 2>a hoax. Donald Trump must treat this like the existential crisis.

162
00:10:49.799 --> 00:10:50.159
<v Speaker 4>It is.

163
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:55.480
<v Speaker 2>All right on that particular note. Gavin Newsom and many

164
00:10:55.559 --> 00:11:01.080
<v Speaker 2>many other Democrats blaming global warming or climate change for

165
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:07.919
<v Speaker 2>the fires. You love in a tinder box, You have

166
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:11.080
<v Speaker 2>no water pressure. You haven't done a damn thing to

167
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.159
<v Speaker 2>remove the brush and all the tinder that's surrounding you.

168
00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:17.080
<v Speaker 2>You haven't put any fire breaks in. You haven't done

169
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:22.519
<v Speaker 2>anything at all to address the real problems that exist

170
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:26.720
<v Speaker 2>right now. So let's say climate change man made. Responsible

171
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:29.480
<v Speaker 2>climate change is let's assume that for the sake of discussion,

172
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.960
<v Speaker 2>and that you know, fifty years from now the temperature

173
00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:37.159
<v Speaker 2>will be one degree warmer, and that's the concern. I

174
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:39.000
<v Speaker 2>guess the sea levels are going to rise, and you

175
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.919
<v Speaker 2>know New York City's going to be underwater. Whatever. Okay,

176
00:11:42.279 --> 00:11:47.279
<v Speaker 2>between now and then, this so called climate change created

177
00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:58.720
<v Speaker 2>problem can be addressed and must be addressed with real

178
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:02.720
<v Speaker 2>time right blos Linkan now threats that this thing has

179
00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 2>allegedly created, in other words, the dry conditions and the

180
00:12:06.440 --> 00:12:10.080
<v Speaker 2>tinder box that they're sitting in. How about cleaning out

181
00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:19.159
<v Speaker 2>the tender how about adequately preparing for fire responses. How

182
00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:22.480
<v Speaker 2>about well, maybe getting a water supply and rather than

183
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:25.519
<v Speaker 2>release all the water into the ocean because of a smell,

184
00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:31.000
<v Speaker 2>maybe you need more water resources because oge climate change

185
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:34.679
<v Speaker 2>has created this problem. But we're gonna have to deal

186
00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:36.720
<v Speaker 2>with the real problem between now and then, which is

187
00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:39.960
<v Speaker 2>the risk, the genuine risk that this whole thing may

188
00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>go up like a box of matches, which look it

189
00:12:44.360 --> 00:12:49.679
<v Speaker 2>just did. So are they're busy spending money on carbon

190
00:12:49.799 --> 00:12:52.559
<v Speaker 2>capture programs and trying to get people in an electric

191
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:55.919
<v Speaker 2>vehicle because well, climate change, they're letting the rest of

192
00:12:55.960 --> 00:13:01.759
<v Speaker 2>the place create a genuine, life threatening right now problem.

193
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.240
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a failure priorities, folks, and you know

194
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.840
<v Speaker 2>they listen to somebody who doesn't believe that you and

195
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:13.519
<v Speaker 2>I respond with the ups and downs of the of

196
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:22.440
<v Speaker 2>the weather jays Louise. They said he's going to be

197
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:27.879
<v Speaker 2>the costliest wildfires in US history. Got JP Morgan and

198
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:31.120
<v Speaker 2>a couple of other sources saying, you know, the economic losses,

199
00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:35.759
<v Speaker 2>economic losses fifty billion highly of insurance losses from natural

200
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:40.279
<v Speaker 2>disasters can well vary and from the initial estimates. And honestly,

201
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:44.080
<v Speaker 2>if I'm a betting man, I'm putting it all down

202

<v Speaker 2>call for all your roofing needs. Fastened pro Roofing. So

208
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Eric yesterday came in, dropped a little dolly off our

209
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 2>grandpuppy and he was off to work looking at roofs

210
00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:17.960
<v Speaker 2>and helping people out. And that's what he does for

211
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:20.799
<v Speaker 2>fast and Pro, does inspections and quotes, and he's an

212
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:23.840
<v Speaker 2>honest guy, just like everybody at Fastened Pro. They are

213
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:28.279
<v Speaker 2>honest professionals. And that's short supply sadly in the roofing business.

214
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:30.879
<v Speaker 2>But you've got not just the most honest roofers around,

215
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:34.919
<v Speaker 2>you've got the superior quality of the work they do.

216
00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:38.840
<v Speaker 2>Any kind of roof they do it. I've seen those

217
00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:41.120
<v Speaker 2>metal roots. I think those things look beautiful on homes.

218
00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:44.240
<v Speaker 2>But you know, we've got a shingle roof and I

219
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:46.440
<v Speaker 2>had to have my roof replaced because of some severe

220
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.879
<v Speaker 2>hell damage. Thank you Fast and Pro Roofing for doing

221
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:51.039
<v Speaker 2>just such a wonderful job on that. Went ahead and

222
00:14:51.080 --> 00:14:54.519
<v Speaker 2>got new gutters. The builder special gutters were really kind

223
00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:56.679
<v Speaker 2>of skinny. They didn't do a very good job. So

224
00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:59.039
<v Speaker 2>we got bigger gutters and we've got gutter guards. Of course,

225
00:14:59.039 --> 00:15:01.440
<v Speaker 2>they'll install a gutter guard for you. It's the winter time.

226
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Of course, if you have an ice dam problem, maybe

227
00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:06.840
<v Speaker 2>because you didn't get your gutters cleaned out before wintertime,

228
00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:10.039
<v Speaker 2>they can help you out with that. They do skylights,

229
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:13.320
<v Speaker 2>and they do exterior projects like the siding work they

230
00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.679
<v Speaker 2>did on my home absolutely beautiful. It all starts with

231
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:19.879
<v Speaker 2>a free honest inspection. There's nothing wrong up there. The

258
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.799
<v Speaker 2>and inclusion as opposed to fire preparedness that's been widely reported,

259
00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:58.320
<v Speaker 2>Bass claiming in a press conference just yesterday, none of

260
00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:01.480
<v Speaker 2>the reductions would have been impacted situation that we're dealing

261
00:17:01.480 --> 00:17:04.680
<v Speaker 2>with over the last couple of days, and then also

262
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:07.480
<v Speaker 2>having the audacity and nerve to add that the city

263
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:15.079
<v Speaker 2>is in tough budgetary times. I won't deny that I

264
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:16.880
<v Speaker 2>have no idea what the city's budget is, but I'm

265
00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:20.279
<v Speaker 2>certain that they're in tough budgetary times. Homelessness and the

266
00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:24.160
<v Speaker 2>illegal immigrant problem is really soaking up a lot of resources.

267
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:27.119
<v Speaker 2>Let's just use that as an illustration. It's happening, it's real.

268
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.680
<v Speaker 2>And yet Los Angeles allocated one hundred thousand dollars to

269
00:17:31.799 --> 00:17:35.119
<v Speaker 2>the Civil plus Human Rights and Equity Department for what

270
00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:38.920
<v Speaker 2>they call a midnight stroll transgender cafe that's in the

271
00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:43.039

273
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:54.240
<v Speaker 2>they're breaking down the different types of homeless people. I'm homeless,

274
00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:57.839
<v Speaker 2>I need help. Wait a second, hold on, are you transgender? No,

275
00:17:58.039 --> 00:18:01.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, move over, getting a different line. These funds

276
00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:07.599
<v Speaker 2>are for unsheltered transgender individuals in Hollywood. Are you from Hollywood?

00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:02.599
<v Speaker 2>more coming up got local stories rather hear from you

300
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:05.200

301
00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:08.079
<v Speaker 2>hundred and eighty two to three talk. This is no pun,

302
00:20:08.200 --> 00:20:11.400
<v Speaker 2>not a joke, but odor Exit works on smoke. It's

303
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.440
<v Speaker 2>one of the things that it works on. Maybe the

304
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:17.359
<v Speaker 2>folks that odor Exit will send a shipment out to

305
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Los Angeles od o r xit dot com. Odor Exit

00:20:28.359 --> 00:20:30.000

310
00:20:30.039 --> 00:20:33.079
<v Speaker 2>that's known for. So I always think of cigar smoke

311
00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:36.640

312
00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:40.039
<v Speaker 2>weed smoker because it works on that too, Believe it

313
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:43.839
<v Speaker 2>or not, food oders, mold, mildew, pet odors, you name it,

318

320
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:04.480
<v Speaker 2>they do. They had to use them many times. Odor

321
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:08.519
<v Speaker 2>exsit dot com works on everything except the stench of politics.

322
00:21:09.319 --> 00:21:12.000

327
00:21:22.680 --> 00:21:25.519
<v Speaker 2>snow moving in. They say about eight am today floury's

328
00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:27.480
<v Speaker 2>looked for two to four inches, maybe even as much

329
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:30.400
<v Speaker 2>as five possible. I have twenty eight I guess that's

330
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.720
<v Speaker 2>throughout the day. It'll end around eleven o'clock at snow

331

337
00:21:57.319 --> 00:21:59.599
<v Speaker 2>just got to instant message from Jeff. He's really looking

338
00:21:59.640 --> 00:22:03.000
<v Speaker 2>forward to what he said. It's been three weeks. You'll

339
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:06.240
<v Speaker 2>get that in the moment. Jeff as the five bump.

340
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to the phone. SEO, what March got this morning? Mark,

341
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for calling. Welcome to the Morning Show.

342
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:15.079
<v Speaker 8>Fine, right, you know these this situation in California. I've

343
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:18.440
<v Speaker 8>been watching what I can of it. The thing is

344
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:24.519
<v Speaker 8>people in California keep voting these clowns in and when

345
00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:27.640
<v Speaker 8>you vote clowns into power, only, don't be surprised when

346
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:33.920
<v Speaker 8>you have a circus you know that is happening in

347
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:36.799
<v Speaker 8>front of the world, and then you have high profile

348
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:40.000
<v Speaker 8>people that are that are you know, scouting about it now,

349
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:44.720
<v Speaker 8>which is fine, but I mean you talk about incompetence

350
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:47.640
<v Speaker 8>all the way from Gavin Newsom to this mayor, and

351
00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:51.599
<v Speaker 8>when you dig into her background evidently she's you know,

352
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:57.400
<v Speaker 8>goes to Cuba on a regular basis. And also this

353
00:22:57.599 --> 00:23:05.200
<v Speaker 8>infatuation on the l with this whole gay and transgender thing.

354
00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:08.759
<v Speaker 8>I just don't get it, don't understand it, and I

355
00:23:09.279 --> 00:23:13.200
<v Speaker 8>think I have a pretty good theory on why they

356
00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:16.079
<v Speaker 8>may be doing it. But there's a there's a documentary

357
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:19.160
<v Speaker 8>out there called Out of the Shadows dot org if

358
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:22.920
<v Speaker 8>you can find it that goes into the whole relationship

359
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:26.720
<v Speaker 8>of Hollywood with with the government and the occult and

360
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:29.720
<v Speaker 8>all kinds of things. And then there was another one

361
00:23:29.759 --> 00:23:31.720
<v Speaker 8>that was called like I think follow the Water or

362
00:23:31.759 --> 00:23:34.279
<v Speaker 8>something like that. But you know, and I don't. I

363
00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:38.599
<v Speaker 8>can't speak to the validity of all of it, but man,

364
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:43.119
<v Speaker 8>it sure does make you think. And it's just this

365
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:46.279
<v Speaker 8>infatuation with this DEI and I think it's starting to

366
00:23:46.279 --> 00:23:50.200
<v Speaker 8>turn the corner and go the other way. But what

367
00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:53.200
<v Speaker 8>a joke, I mean. And again, but these people keep

368
00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:57.640
<v Speaker 8>voting clowns into office. And it's not just in California,

369
00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:00.680
<v Speaker 8>it's in every major city in the United States, and

370
00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:04.319
<v Speaker 8>Cincinnati included that. Yeah, yeah, so you know, you get

371
00:24:04.359 --> 00:24:06.599
<v Speaker 8>what you you get the government that you vote for.

372
00:24:07.400 --> 00:24:11.720
<v Speaker 8>And and and until people start standing up in the

373
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:15.799
<v Speaker 8>smaller communities and the smaller cities and saying enough is enough.

374
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:21.119
<v Speaker 8>The same thing that is happening in California right now

375
00:24:21.160 --> 00:24:23.640
<v Speaker 8>with fires. And I'm going to be speaking a little

376
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:25.160
<v Speaker 8>bit out of turn, but we used to do a

377
00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:28.359
<v Speaker 8>lot of riding down to Daniel Boone National Forest and

378
00:24:28.440 --> 00:24:30.680
<v Speaker 8>there was a tornado that it went down through there

379
00:24:31.000 --> 00:24:34.240
<v Speaker 8>several years ago and it was to a point where

380
00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:36.319
<v Speaker 8>you couldn't even ride dirt bikes through most of the

381
00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:40.039
<v Speaker 8>forest because it was so torn up. And Daniel Boone

382
00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:42.400
<v Speaker 8>National Forests now they may have done work since, and

383
00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:44.400
<v Speaker 8>so that's what I said. Maybe I'm speaking out of turn,

384
00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:47.240
<v Speaker 8>but we were, we were, and they were closing down

385
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:49.319
<v Speaker 8>a lot of the trails and now it is it's

386
00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:53.599
<v Speaker 8>completely closed down the off road riding. And we were

387
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:55.960
<v Speaker 8>saying that it's just a matter of time before Daniel

388
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:58.160
<v Speaker 8>Boone National Forest lights off. And we saw a little

389
00:24:58.200 --> 00:24:59.839
<v Speaker 8>bit about it in Gatlinburgh.

390
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:03.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the fireworks started that out.

391
00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:08.680
<v Speaker 8>Just California. Yeah, but it's not just California. And but

392
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:13.559
<v Speaker 8>you're exactly right. This lack of forestry management, a lot

393
00:25:13.599 --> 00:25:14.920
<v Speaker 8>of this, I'm not gonna say it could have been

394
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:19.960
<v Speaker 8>completely prevented, but it could have been maybe contained contained exactly.

395
00:25:20.000 --> 00:25:22.039
<v Speaker 2>That's the point of putting in fire breaks, that's the

396
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:25.119
<v Speaker 2>point of regularly maintaining and cleaning out the brush that's

397
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:29.039
<v Speaker 2>well just basically a source of immediate combustion. I mean,

398
00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:31.000
<v Speaker 2>that's how you start a fire. You start with tinder

399
00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:32.640
<v Speaker 2>and then you start adding the big logs. And it

400
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:36.759
<v Speaker 2>was just basically and acres after acre after miles square

401
00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:40.599
<v Speaker 2>miles of tender easily ignitable because they haven't had much rain.

402
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:42.640
<v Speaker 2>And like they said, go ahead, believe that it's a

403
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:45.440
<v Speaker 2>human caused climate change, but that doesn't mean you're not

404
00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:47.920
<v Speaker 2>supposed to do something about it in the meantime while

405
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:51.200
<v Speaker 2>you're trying to take carbon out of the atmosphere. Ah,

406
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:54.440
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it. Mark, you have a wonderful weekend. My friend, Pete,

<v Speaker 2>You just made Jeff a very happy man, Judge Drecker,

459
00:28:28.079 --> 00:28:35.599
<v Speaker 2>it's been three weeks. He like you. Joe needs a

460
00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:39.160
<v Speaker 2>Primus Fix. Well, I know it's readily available on Spotify

00:28:39.200 --> 00:28:56.240
<v Speaker 2>and elsewhere. He probably owns his own copy. On finale

463
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:01.960
<v Speaker 2>it what Pete's got? Pete, thanks for holding over the

464
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:02.880
<v Speaker 2>very Happy Friday.

465
00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:05.079
<v Speaker 3>Thanks Brian.

466
00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:09.160
<v Speaker 11>I saw a news clip like the people trying to

467
00:29:09.160 --> 00:29:13.519
<v Speaker 11>evacuate they got into big like traffic jams and then

468
00:29:13.640 --> 00:29:17.279
<v Speaker 11>we're getting smoked out, and so they abandoned their cars

469
00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:18.839
<v Speaker 11>and then they brought.

470
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.559
<v Speaker 8>In bulldozers and they were literally bulldozing the cars off

471
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 8>the roads so that fire trucks are getting through.

472
00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:27.279
<v Speaker 7>That was just unbelievable.

473
00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:29.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, and what else do you do? I mean, if

474
00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:31.440
<v Speaker 2>you're stuck in a traffic jam that is not moving

475
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:34.839
<v Speaker 2>and the fire is coming up to you, toward you,

476
00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:36.720
<v Speaker 2>you need to save your life, so you get out

477
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:38.680
<v Speaker 2>of your car and you run for the ocean, which

478
00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:41.039
<v Speaker 2>is what so many of those poor, those poor people

479
00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:44.319
<v Speaker 2>had to do, leaving, of course, the responders to have

480
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:46.319
<v Speaker 2>the bulldoze. I mean, don't ever park in front of

481
00:29:46.319 --> 00:29:48.279
<v Speaker 2>a fire hydrant because if there's a fire in the

482
00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:53.079
<v Speaker 2>area that requires that hydrant, trust me, the UH firefighters

483
00:29:53.119 --> 00:29:56.200
<v Speaker 2>will do everything they can to literally destroy your car

484
00:29:56.279 --> 00:29:59.160
<v Speaker 2>by not smashing the windows out, running hoses through them

485
00:29:59.160 --> 00:30:02.279
<v Speaker 2>and everything. I don't think that's you know, I think

486
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 2>it's designed to teach a lesson generally speaking, don't park

487
00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:06.960
<v Speaker 2>in front of a fire hydrant. But in times like this,

488
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:11.119
<v Speaker 2>life is far more important than moving your car out

489
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:12.839
<v Speaker 2>of the way. And I doubt those books had really

490
00:30:12.880 --> 00:30:15.920
<v Speaker 2>any place that they could put their cars. So yeah,

491
00:30:16.039 --> 00:30:20.640
<v Speaker 2>all right, it was just an absolute panic. Listen. I

492
00:30:20.680 --> 00:30:23.559
<v Speaker 2>had a dear friend that was stuck in that fire

493
00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:26.319
<v Speaker 2>that was just mentioned in the last segment and Gatlinburg.

494
00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:29.000
<v Speaker 2>He was staying in one of the chalets. The fire

495
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:31.279
<v Speaker 2>was coming up the hills, they got surrounded. He had

496
00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:34.759
<v Speaker 2>to drive out, could not see more than a foot

497
00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:37.240
<v Speaker 2>in front of his car. And if you've ever seen

498
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:40.079
<v Speaker 2>those windy narrow roads that are are in and around

499
00:30:40.119 --> 00:30:43.079
<v Speaker 2>the Gatlinburg area. It's scary enough to drive on them

500
00:30:43.079 --> 00:30:46.960
<v Speaker 2>when the weather's fine. He is surrounded by fire. He

501
00:30:47.319 --> 00:30:49.759
<v Speaker 2>was so hot in his car he could barely stand it.

502
00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:51.599
<v Speaker 2>He was able to get out, Thank God. He's just

503
00:30:51.680 --> 00:30:55.799
<v Speaker 2>such a great guy. But he and his wife literally

504
00:30:55.920 --> 00:31:00.240
<v Speaker 2>thought they were going to die that close to death.

505
00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:03.400
<v Speaker 2>And so I forgive those people all day long for

506
00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:06.799
<v Speaker 2>abanning their cars in the street and saving their lives.

507
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:16.880
<v Speaker 2>Let's see, here we go to the stack of stupid. Apparently,

508
00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:20.119
<v Speaker 2>if you're strolling downtown this week, we're in let us

509
00:31:20.119 --> 00:31:26.119
<v Speaker 2>see we can't figure out downtown Boston happened to spot

510
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:31.599
<v Speaker 2>four very large and very naked pink guys awkwardly wedged

511
00:31:31.640 --> 00:31:34.920
<v Speaker 2>between buildings, climbing trees or climbing on rooftops. Don't worry,

512
00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:38.640
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't a drug induce hallucination. The display the latest

513
00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:43.400
<v Speaker 2>brain shout of Winter Active, the art initiative previously brought

514
00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:48.759
<v Speaker 2>you last year's viral and described as creepy clown heads

515
00:31:49.640 --> 00:31:52.359
<v Speaker 2>known for their bold and unconventional approach to public art,

516
00:31:52.400 --> 00:31:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Winter Active is back to inject a little weirdness in

517
00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:58.759
<v Speaker 2>whimsy into Boston's notoriously bleak winter months. Their mission to

518
00:31:58.799 --> 00:32:01.200
<v Speaker 2>get us all outside reminded the winner just doesn't have

519
00:32:01.279 --> 00:32:07.480
<v Speaker 2>to be gray skies and icy sidewalks, And, as the

520
00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:11.200
<v Speaker 2>reporter notes, who wouldn't want to stop and snap a

521
00:32:11.279 --> 00:32:15.000
<v Speaker 2>selfie with a giant pink guy casually perched on a ledge.

522
00:32:16.160 --> 00:32:20.039
<v Speaker 2>This year's exhibit, probably funded by the Boston taxpayers, features

523
00:32:20.079 --> 00:32:24.160
<v Speaker 2>fifteen artworks and interactive play elements scattered throughout the city.

524
00:32:24.160 --> 00:32:27.960
<v Speaker 2>Officially kicking off the fifteenth w interactive clearly loves a

525
00:32:27.960 --> 00:32:32.599
<v Speaker 2>good surprise. The playful pink naked guys blow up dolls

526
00:32:32.960 --> 00:32:37.680
<v Speaker 2>started showing up and they'll be on display until March thirtieth.

527
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:42.119
<v Speaker 2>I guarantee you there are taxpayer dollars related to that.

528
00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:44.759
<v Speaker 2>And since it's Friday, let's get one naked story in

529
00:32:44.799 --> 00:32:47.759
<v Speaker 2>here before we take a break. We got a tradition

530
00:32:48.880 --> 00:32:52.319
<v Speaker 2>in Polk County, North Carolina, where a man was found

531
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:54.799
<v Speaker 2>naked before his arrest in the home of a child

532
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.960
<v Speaker 2>he met on social media. R Andrew Murray, District Attorney

533
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:03.720
<v Speaker 2>for Henderson, Polk and Transylvania Counties, announced that Jesse Bernard Floyd,

534
00:33:03.799 --> 00:33:06.880

535
00:33:06.880 --> 00:33:09.640
<v Speaker 2>According to investigation of court trial records, he met and

536
00:33:09.759 --> 00:33:16.799
<v Speaker 2>befriended the child on the social media website Sniffies and

537
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:21.279
<v Speaker 2>started soliciting the child for nude pictures and sex. After

538
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:24.720
<v Speaker 2>building an online report, Floyd able to convince the child

539
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:26.960
<v Speaker 2>to follow Floyd to come to the child's home in

540
00:33:26.960 --> 00:33:29.319
<v Speaker 2>Pole County. He became The child became nervous about the

541
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:33.000
<v Speaker 2>meeting and told a family member Floyd, found naked in

542
00:33:33.200 --> 00:33:35.839
<v Speaker 2>the home of the child, was attempting to carry out

549
00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:01.039
<v Speaker 2>leeway in terms of content five o'clock hour and while

550
00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:07.759
<v Speaker 2>I will not read the entire article. Pro tip if

551
00:34:07.799 --> 00:34:10.320
<v Speaker 2>you're getting an MRI, make sure you don't have a

552
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:16.280
<v Speaker 2>sex toy in your rectum. As described in the Daily Mail,

553
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:20.199
<v Speaker 2>patients suffered horrific injuries after leaving. The sex toy insorted

554
00:34:20.239 --> 00:34:22.679
<v Speaker 2>into her rectum during a medical procedure, was inside the

555
00:34:22.679 --> 00:34:26.920
<v Speaker 2>patient's back passage during a routine MRI scan. Why are

556
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:32.480
<v Speaker 2>you doing that? No idea resulting in a hazardous reaction

557
00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:35.719
<v Speaker 2>between the powerful magnets in the MRI and the metal

558
00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:43.679
<v Speaker 2>parts inside the toy. Post from social media detail how

559
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.760
<v Speaker 2>the powerful magnetic forces used in the MRI detail scans

560
00:34:47.880 --> 00:34:52.159
<v Speaker 2>pulled the metallic core of the silicone toy through the

561
00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:58.440
<v Speaker 2>patient's rectum and up into her chest cavity. Patient apparently

562
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:01.239
<v Speaker 2>believe the sex toy was one in silicone, but it

563
00:35:01.400 --> 00:35:08.239
<v Speaker 2>wasn't It had a metal core. But then again, why

564
00:35:08.280 --> 00:35:11.639
<v Speaker 2>are you doing that? Whether or not you believe that

565
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:14.039
<v Speaker 2>to be a good idea in the first instance, don't

566
00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:17.960
<v Speaker 2>you think just as a matter of well common sense,

567
00:35:18.000 --> 00:35:20.360
<v Speaker 2>you might want to take it out before getting an MRI,

568
00:35:20.599 --> 00:35:23.719
<v Speaker 2>which most assuredly would reveal whatever it is you've thought

569
00:35:23.840 --> 00:35:26.159
<v Speaker 2>was a rise idea to insert inside you?

570
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:28.320
<v Speaker 12>Now, who can argue with that?

571
00:35:28.360 --> 00:35:31.280
<v Speaker 2>Good? A bat Louisiana woman at the Mall of Louisiana

572
00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:35.639
<v Speaker 2>rang in the New y Air naked video posted on

573
00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:39.800
<v Speaker 2>x shows the woman jogging through the main corridor of

574
00:35:39.840 --> 00:35:43.039
<v Speaker 2>the mall fully nude, while bystanders. Of course, we're turning

575
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:52.880
<v Speaker 2>to stare and take a bunch of pictures. Cord to

576
00:35:52.880 --> 00:35:55.639
<v Speaker 2>the Bad News Police, the incident happened January third, about

577
00:35:55.679 --> 00:35:58.559
<v Speaker 2>one pm. An officer was working a special assignment at

578
00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:01.280
<v Speaker 2>the mall reported that the mall secure initially notified about

579
00:36:01.280 --> 00:36:05.039
<v Speaker 2>the woman running through the mall partially undressed, with later

580
00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:08.119
<v Speaker 2>updates confirming no she was fully nude. Women eventually found

581
00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:17.119
<v Speaker 2>inside Dillard's and detained by mall security. Courton Local is

582
00:36:17.159 --> 00:36:19.880
<v Speaker 2>They believe the woman could have been under the influence

583
00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:35.559
<v Speaker 2>of narcotics at the time. Really, New Hampshire, Gary, thanks

584
00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:37.960
<v Speaker 2>for calling this morning. You're interrupting the naked people in

585
00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:40.920
<v Speaker 2>the stack and stupid New Amster Gary, welcome back. That's okay.

586
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:45.920
<v Speaker 3>I I feel like we really live in a clown world.

587
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:46.920
<v Speaker 8>We really do.

588
00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:47.800
<v Speaker 7>You know?

589
00:36:48.199 --> 00:36:51.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, I let me assure you. I guarantee you as

590
00:36:51.960 --> 00:36:54.679
<v Speaker 2>sure as I'm sitting here. The only reason we feel like,

591
00:36:54.800 --> 00:36:57.320
<v Speaker 2>you know that the world is really coming on glued

592
00:36:57.400 --> 00:36:59.719
<v Speaker 2>with all this kind of stories and the craziness is

593
00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:02.320
<v Speaker 2>because as we have the Internet, which immediately brings the

594
00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:06.719
<v Speaker 2>most bizarre stories that may have been locally reported back

595
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:09.280
<v Speaker 2>in the day we had local newspapers, but brings us

596
00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:13.280
<v Speaker 2>to the full attention of the entire world because everybody

597
00:37:13.320 --> 00:37:15.920
<v Speaker 2>and his brother will repost and bring it to our

598
00:37:15.960 --> 00:37:19.320
<v Speaker 2>attention because it's so batcrap insane.

599
00:37:20.880 --> 00:37:24.440
<v Speaker 3>You know what, fact, Brian, I'm so much. I feel

600
00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:25.239
<v Speaker 3>so important.

601
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:31.599
<v Speaker 2>Oh my goodness, you get ready for an MRI today,

602
00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:32.239
<v Speaker 2>are you? Gary?

603
00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:36.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'll be sure to take care of myself before

604
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:42.360
<v Speaker 3>I go. Oh my goodness, thank god, it's Friday, right exactly.

605
00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:46.679
<v Speaker 3>Oh gee, hey, I can probably get a discount down

606
00:37:46.719 --> 00:37:50.920
<v Speaker 3>there in so Samati. You got your m I place

607
00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:55.159
<v Speaker 3>down there? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the good plug for them.

608
00:37:55.400 --> 00:38:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Plug a plug crazy. I'm surprised Joe let that one slide.

609
00:38:03.000 --> 00:38:07.400
<v Speaker 2>He was such a slow moving soft right on in

610
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:15.960
<v Speaker 2>right okay, dgis. Oh my goodness, are you done?

611
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:19.000
<v Speaker 3>I can't. I can't help but to think of this uff.

612
00:38:19.400 --> 00:38:21.880
<v Speaker 3>I've been watching this agenda free guy. He's kind of

613
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:25.079
<v Speaker 3>a geek, but he's really good at covering this on

614
00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:30.840
<v Speaker 3>YouTube and he actually put broadcastify with uh the.

615
00:38:32.239 --> 00:38:33.440
<v Speaker 2>He's a newscast or.

616
00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:36.199
<v Speaker 3>He's kind of geeky, but he really has it and

617
00:38:36.400 --> 00:38:39.440
<v Speaker 3>they have a chat with it, and it's kind of

618
00:38:39.440 --> 00:38:42.840
<v Speaker 3>like a news source and you're just watching non filtered.

619
00:38:42.840 --> 00:38:46.320
<v Speaker 3>It's called non Agenda, and it's on YouTube, and you

620
00:38:46.440 --> 00:38:48.880
<v Speaker 3>kind of get an idea of what really is going

621
00:38:48.920 --> 00:38:53.880
<v Speaker 3>on the magnitude of how serious this is. But I

622
00:38:54.039 --> 00:38:59.000
<v Speaker 3>was just watching an article apparently a they're getting people

623
00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:01.960
<v Speaker 3>who are starting now I saw a couple of them

624
00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:06.280
<v Speaker 3>that have been caught with torches in their hands. Yeah,

625
00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:10.159
<v Speaker 3>and they look like they're homeless people or they're not

626
00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:12.880
<v Speaker 3>really well off, and they're going to these neighborhoods and

627
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:15.880
<v Speaker 3>they're torching them up. Yeah, and they got a couple

628
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:17.239
<v Speaker 3>of those on YouTube.

629
00:39:17.360 --> 00:39:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's a report in New York Posts among others,

630
00:39:20.320 --> 00:39:23.280
<v Speaker 2>as it's widely reported. We got one taken a homeless

631
00:39:23.280 --> 00:39:28.400
<v Speaker 2>person taken to custody in Los Angeles for starting a fire.

632
00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:31.320
<v Speaker 2>So it was the Kenneth fire that was started by

633
00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:34.800
<v Speaker 2>this particular homeless individual. And there's other videos circulating as

634
00:39:34.840 --> 00:39:37.320
<v Speaker 2>well that I've seen. And again, you know, if you

635
00:39:37.400 --> 00:39:39.679
<v Speaker 2>want to do massive damage and you are one of

636
00:39:39.679 --> 00:39:41.519
<v Speaker 2>these type of people, And that go back to my

637
00:39:41.639 --> 00:39:44.880
<v Speaker 2>conversation with the guy from Breitbart earlier in the week

638
00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:47.960
<v Speaker 2>about these lone individuals. You know, it could be an active,

639
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:51.519
<v Speaker 2>intentional terrorism done by a person who just absolutely hates

640
00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:54.719
<v Speaker 2>you know the fact that everybody in Pacific Palisades lives

641
00:39:54.719 --> 00:39:56.719
<v Speaker 2>in a three and a half plus million dollar home,

642
00:39:56.760 --> 00:40:00.000
<v Speaker 2>and oh, look around you. There's enough kindling to immediately

643
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:02.119
<v Speaker 2>start the whole place on fire. All you need is

644
00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:05.719
<v Speaker 2>a pack of matches that could be behind any one

645
00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:09.880
<v Speaker 2>of these fires. But we do have reports of arrests

646
00:40:09.920 --> 00:40:16.639
<v Speaker 2>for people intentionally starting fires. So crazy world. That's why

647
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:19.400
<v Speaker 2>you need to take precautionary measures. The world's an imperfect

648
00:40:19.400 --> 00:40:21.840
<v Speaker 2>place and it's filled with a bunch of crazy people.

649
00:40:22.199 --> 00:40:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Coming up at five fifty eight fifty five car CD

00:41:11.880 --> 00:41:16.079
<v Speaker 2>them for political bias. FBI. Apparently China has access to

667
00:41:16.159 --> 00:41:20.960
<v Speaker 2>US government devices and networks, and phishing attacks doubled in

668
00:41:21.039 --> 00:41:23.000
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty four. Those are the topics with Dave at

669
00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:25.920
<v Speaker 2>the bottom of the hour five one, three, seven, two

670
00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:28.159
<v Speaker 2>three talk found five fifty on ET and T phones.

671
00:41:28.199 --> 00:41:30.800
<v Speaker 2>We also have Todd Zinzer and studio our watchdog of

672
00:41:30.920 --> 00:41:34.800
<v Speaker 2>city council and the county commissioners talking about a whole

673
00:41:34.840 --> 00:41:37.480
<v Speaker 2>bunch of topics dealing with the city and the county,

674
00:41:37.880 --> 00:41:41.039
<v Speaker 2>Keegan Corkor and our wine expert. Why dry January hurts

675
00:41:41.079 --> 00:41:45.079
<v Speaker 2>the hospitality and retail business. Apparently that social media post

676
00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:47.360
<v Speaker 2>caused a bit of a stir on social media and

677
00:41:47.400 --> 00:41:51.480
<v Speaker 2>Rebecca Cerndorf at eight thirty, Ohioan's for Child Protection Divine

678
00:41:51.639 --> 00:41:54.079
<v Speaker 2>signed it into law, and we'll talk about what that

679
00:41:54.199 --> 00:41:59.440
<v Speaker 2>means for the state of Ohio. And children, meanwhile tapping

680
00:41:59.480 --> 00:42:01.599
<v Speaker 2>into the expertise to the editorial board of the Wall

681
00:42:01.639 --> 00:42:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Street Journal and just summing up the stupidity of government.

682
00:42:04.480 --> 00:42:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Now I already pointed out, you know, all these folks

683
00:42:07.079 --> 00:42:09.679
<v Speaker 2>screaming about global warming, and if it wasn't for global

684
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:12.360
<v Speaker 2>warming or climate change, those fires would not be raging

685
00:42:12.400 --> 00:42:14.320
<v Speaker 2>in California. If you believe that I got a bridge,

686
00:42:14.360 --> 00:42:20.079
<v Speaker 2>I want to say it, but it reveals prioritization, prioritizing

687
00:42:20.119 --> 00:42:24.280
<v Speaker 2>all these woke green policies for something that may or

688
00:42:24.320 --> 00:42:27.719
<v Speaker 2>probably won't happen one hundred years down the road, spending

689
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:31.440
<v Speaker 2>countless billions of dollars on that, but not paying attention

690
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:35.920
<v Speaker 2>real time to real problems that could result in catastrophes,

691
00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:39.320
<v Speaker 2>like the catastrophe that's literally going on before our very

692
00:42:39.360 --> 00:42:42.559
<v Speaker 2>eyes out in California right now. Nobody cleaned it up,

693
00:42:42.599 --> 00:42:47.119
<v Speaker 2>Nobody put fire breaks in, Nobody anticipated needing like water pressure.

694
00:42:47.199 --> 00:42:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, what happens if we have a fire. Well,

695
00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:54.960
<v Speaker 2>we got smelt to worry about. So hey. Public officials

696
00:42:55.000 --> 00:42:58.079
<v Speaker 2>are supposed to be prioritizing and doing the right thing

697
00:42:58.159 --> 00:43:02.000
<v Speaker 2>and anticipating real time, real life challenges that exist right

698
00:43:02.239 --> 00:43:06.360
<v Speaker 2>now now, pivoting over along those same lines to what

699
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:09.960
<v Speaker 2>California has done to itself in so far as insurance

700
00:43:10.119 --> 00:43:17.480
<v Speaker 2>is concerned. Journal op ed board California wildfire insurance catastrophe.

701
00:43:17.519 --> 00:43:20.440
<v Speaker 2>The state has refused to let insurers do proper pricing

702
00:43:20.480 --> 00:43:23.880
<v Speaker 2>for risk. Homeowners and taxpayers will pay for the mistake.

703
00:43:26.360 --> 00:43:28.440
<v Speaker 2>I'd say right, the politicians are blaming each other for

704
00:43:28.480 --> 00:43:30.679
<v Speaker 2>the losses and the horrific Los Angeles wildfires, but the

705
00:43:30.719 --> 00:43:34.599
<v Speaker 2>truth is that Mother Nature can be merciless. The stories

706
00:43:34.599 --> 00:43:37.519
<v Speaker 2>about water shortages are conflicting any more time to sort out,

707
00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:40.360
<v Speaker 2>but it's not too soon to note that California's politicians

708
00:43:40.800 --> 00:43:45.079
<v Speaker 2>have fueled a five alarm insurance market crisis that will

709
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:47.920
<v Speaker 2>hurt homeowners and taxpayers across the state once the fires

710
00:43:47.920 --> 00:43:51.960
<v Speaker 2>have died out. Hurricane Force Win US fanning the fires

711
00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:56.320
<v Speaker 2>across Los Angeles County, especially Pacific Palisades and Alta Dina,

712
00:43:56.440 --> 00:43:59.679
<v Speaker 2>where two thousand structures to burn by Thursday evening. Actually

713
00:43:59.679 --> 00:44:04.280
<v Speaker 2>it's more than that. Ten people now reportedly are dead.

714
00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:08.920
<v Speaker 2>Tens of thousands of buildings remain at risk. California's Southland

715
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:12.840
<v Speaker 2>has rarely experienced such strong winds in the past two

716
00:44:12.960 --> 00:44:18.280
<v Speaker 2>wet winners produced loads of combustible vegetation that became tender

717
00:44:18.320 --> 00:44:22.159
<v Speaker 2>after the recent dry months. See you had great weather

718
00:44:22.519 --> 00:44:29.400
<v Speaker 2>causing growth, followed by dry weather, which creates tinder. Such

719
00:44:29.440 --> 00:44:31.719
<v Speaker 2>conditions have created a perfect storm that could become the

720
00:44:31.760 --> 00:44:36.159
<v Speaker 2>most expensive wildfire disaster in US history. The human tragedy

721
00:44:36.400 --> 00:44:39.519
<v Speaker 2>is paramount, but the insurance losses will be in the

722
00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:42.840
<v Speaker 2>tens of billions of dollars or more. The damage could

723
00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:47.760
<v Speaker 2>topple the states under capitalized insurer of last resort. It's

724
00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:53.239
<v Speaker 2>called fair fai R. The again the insurer of last resort.

725
00:44:53.559 --> 00:44:57.159
<v Speaker 2>Private carriers are almost certain to increase premiums, canceled policies,

726
00:44:57.239 --> 00:45:00.559
<v Speaker 2>or withdrawal from the entire state of California, insurers that

727
00:45:00.639 --> 00:45:04.239
<v Speaker 2>already scrapped hundreds of thousands of policies in limited coverage

728
00:45:04.239 --> 00:45:08.440
<v Speaker 2>of wildfire prone areas. Democrats blame climate change, which has

729
00:45:08.480 --> 00:45:11.760
<v Speaker 2>become an all purpose excuse for any disaster relief failure.

730
00:45:12.159 --> 00:45:15.320
<v Speaker 2>But the real insurance problem is that the state regulators

731
00:45:15.360 --> 00:45:20.199
<v Speaker 2>have barred insurers from charging premiums that fully reflect risks

732
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:28.320
<v Speaker 2>and costs. California is the only state that heretofore hasn't

733
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:32.079
<v Speaker 2>allowed insurers to incorporate the cost of reinsurance in premiums

734
00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:35.880
<v Speaker 2>until this year. It has also prohibited insurers from adjusting

735
00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:40.519
<v Speaker 2>premiums by using the standard injury industry practice of catastrophe

736
00:45:40.639 --> 00:45:45.239
<v Speaker 2>modeling to protict the property's future risk. Insurers can only

737
00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:53.480
<v Speaker 2>assess premiums based on historical losses. Consequently, insurers are paying

738
00:45:53.519 --> 00:45:58.519
<v Speaker 2>out one dollar and nine cents in expenses and claims

739
00:45:58.559 --> 00:46:04.119
<v Speaker 2>for every dollar they collect in premiums. Stay in the obvious.

740
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:07.760
<v Speaker 2>The journal notes this is financially unsustainable, which is why

741
00:46:07.800 --> 00:46:10.280
<v Speaker 2>many have paired coverage in areas at high fire risk

742
00:46:10.360 --> 00:46:14.880
<v Speaker 2>with expensive home State Farm dropped nearly seventy percent of

743
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:19.400
<v Speaker 2>policyholders in one Pacific Palisades neighborhood where the average hump

744
00:46:19.400 --> 00:46:24.239
<v Speaker 2>price is three and a half million dollars. You see,

745
00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:27.400
<v Speaker 2>let me just pause on that note, and this is

746
00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:30.800
<v Speaker 2>where a lot of these celebrities live Pacific or lived

747
00:46:31.360 --> 00:46:35.760
<v Speaker 2>past tense. You're going to have to be a person

748
00:46:35.760 --> 00:46:37.320
<v Speaker 2>of means to afford a three and a half million

749
00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:40.039
<v Speaker 2>dollar house. Average price is three and a half million,

750
00:46:40.039 --> 00:46:42.159
<v Speaker 2>and they obviously there's a one some in there that

751
00:46:42.280 --> 00:46:45.320
<v Speaker 2>just go way higher than that. I would imagine they

752
00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:50.880
<v Speaker 2>probably could handle a really healthy, fat insurance premium. If

753
00:46:50.880 --> 00:46:54.000
<v Speaker 2>State Farm jacked up the rates by you know, two

754
00:46:54.119 --> 00:46:57.440
<v Speaker 2>hundred percent or something to deal with the risk that

755
00:46:57.559 --> 00:47:00.760
<v Speaker 2>is associated with insuring a home in that area. Something

756
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:03.119
<v Speaker 2>tells me the folks in Pacific policy probably could have

757
00:47:03.159 --> 00:47:07.039
<v Speaker 2>handled the insurance premium, but because of the rules and

758
00:47:07.079 --> 00:47:09.440
<v Speaker 2>REGs in California, State Farm said, you know, let's screw it,

759
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:12.320
<v Speaker 2>we're out, We're leaving, We're done, dropping seventy percent of

760
00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:16.679
<v Speaker 2>the policyholders there. Bye, So this insurer in the state

761
00:47:16.679 --> 00:47:21.199
<v Speaker 2>of California of last resort, Fair now covers about half

762
00:47:21.239 --> 00:47:26.000
<v Speaker 2>a million homeowners who can't obtain private coverage. Now here's

763
00:47:26.039 --> 00:47:28.480
<v Speaker 2>where the rubber meets the road, folks on elected officials

764
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:34.400
<v Speaker 2>that are failing to do their job. Fair's exposure has

765
00:47:34.440 --> 00:47:39.559
<v Speaker 2>now ballooned to four hundred and fifty eight to billion

766
00:47:39.719 --> 00:47:43.400
<v Speaker 2>dollars as of last September, up from one hundred and

767
00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:49.320
<v Speaker 2>fifty three billion dollars four years earlier, with five point

768
00:47:49.679 --> 00:47:55.320
<v Speaker 2>nine billion dollars exposure in this one Pacific Palisades area.

769
00:47:55.400 --> 00:48:00.119
<v Speaker 2>All right, a lot of numbers there. Total insurance exposure

770
00:48:00.119 --> 00:48:04.079
<v Speaker 2>four fifty eight one neighborhood five point nine billion in exposure.

771
00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Are you ready? It has only seven hundred million dollars

772
00:48:09.880 --> 00:48:16.320
<v Speaker 2>cash on hand to pay claims. Reminds me of underfunded

773
00:48:16.360 --> 00:48:24.760
<v Speaker 2>pension programs for example. Why it's because state regulators have

774
00:48:24.920 --> 00:48:29.239
<v Speaker 2>required Fare to cover higher priced homes while rejecting its

775
00:48:29.239 --> 00:48:33.199
<v Speaker 2>proposals for rate increases to account for rising risk and liabilities,

776
00:48:34.239 --> 00:48:37.960
<v Speaker 2>just like it has for private insurers. This home prices

777
00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:41.079
<v Speaker 2>of construction costs increase to the liabilities. Building a quote

778
00:48:41.159 --> 00:48:47.039
<v Speaker 2>unquote affordable housing unit in California can cost one million dollars.

779
00:48:50.800 --> 00:48:56.119
<v Speaker 2>Last year, Fair president Victoria Roach testified to the state

780
00:48:56.159 --> 00:49:02.039
<v Speaker 2>Assembly about the insurer's precarious finances, saying, quote, as those

781
00:49:02.119 --> 00:49:07.119
<v Speaker 2>numbers climb, our financial stability becomes more in question. We

782
00:49:07.199 --> 00:49:10.599
<v Speaker 2>are one event away from a large assessment. There is

783
00:49:10.719 --> 00:49:13.679
<v Speaker 2>no other way to state it, because we don't have

784
00:49:13.800 --> 00:49:16.119
<v Speaker 2>the money on hand, and we have a lot of

785
00:49:16.199 --> 00:49:26.960
<v Speaker 2>exposure out there. If Fair fails, private insurers meaning their policyholders,

786
00:49:26.960 --> 00:49:29.920
<v Speaker 2>are supposed to cover its claims based on their share

787
00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:33.559
<v Speaker 2>of the market, but insurance premiums for many homeowners are

788
00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:36.679
<v Speaker 2>setirized twenty to forty percent this year and even more

789
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:42.039
<v Speaker 2>in the future, and that was before the current fires

790
00:49:43.000 --> 00:49:46.239
<v Speaker 2>to keep carriers from fleeing the market. California Insurance Commissioner

791
00:49:46.320 --> 00:49:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Ricardo Laura last month said it long last that they

792
00:49:50.400 --> 00:49:54.719
<v Speaker 2>could use catastrophe modeling and pricing in their reinsurance costs

793
00:49:54.760 --> 00:49:59.199
<v Speaker 2>well thanks a lot such reforms were needed, but he

794
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:03.039
<v Speaker 2>also imposed costly regulations that may still cause some insurers

795
00:50:03.039 --> 00:50:06.400
<v Speaker 2>to retreat, especially after the Los Angeles fires. Don't be

796
00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:11.119
<v Speaker 2>surprised if Governor Gavin Newsom asked Washington, meaning you to

797
00:50:11.199 --> 00:50:13.960
<v Speaker 2>pay for multimillion dollar homes that have gone up in smoke.

798
00:50:15.639 --> 00:50:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Mister Newsom can blame climate change all he wants, but

799
00:50:18.119 --> 00:50:20.599
<v Speaker 2>that does not absolve the state from the duty to

800
00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:24.320
<v Speaker 2>adapt to its effects. If he really believes this. Unlike fires,

801
00:50:24.360 --> 00:50:29.880
<v Speaker 2>California insurance catastrophe really is the fault of the Democrats

802
00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:38.159
<v Speaker 2>who run Sacramento six point fifteen fifty five kr C

803
00:50:38.280 --> 00:50:48.400

809
00:51:00.039 --> 00:51:03.159
<v Speaker 2>had brilliant ideas. He's been remodeling kitchens almost exclusively for

810
00:51:03.199 --> 00:51:05.559
<v Speaker 2>more than thirty years, and he did ours. We love

811
00:51:05.599 --> 00:51:08.400
<v Speaker 2>what he did for us. Started from scratch, got to

812
00:51:08.440 --> 00:51:10.719
<v Speaker 2>the whole thing, threw it all out and began anew

813
00:51:10.760 --> 00:51:13.679
<v Speaker 2>and he had great ideas. We incorporated many of them

814
00:51:13.679 --> 00:51:16.440
<v Speaker 2>into our project and we've been just extraordinarily happy with

815
00:51:16.519 --> 00:51:19.159

844
00:52:46.320 --> 00:52:48.119
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to the show, and happy Friday to you, sir.

845
00:52:49.320 --> 00:52:53.559
<v Speaker 13>Hey, good morning there, Brian. I agree with what you're saying,

846
00:52:53.599 --> 00:52:56.920
<v Speaker 13>because see, I have family that lives out there and.

847
00:52:57.199 --> 00:53:00.039
<v Speaker 8>Friends, and sometime.

848
00:53:00.360 --> 00:53:03.800
<v Speaker 13>You know, I feel for them, but sometime they just

849
00:53:04.280 --> 00:53:08.639
<v Speaker 13>don't get it. They'll build, they build these beautiful houses

850
00:53:09.159 --> 00:53:13.960
<v Speaker 13>and they won't even clear out like twenty fifty yards

851
00:53:14.079 --> 00:53:17.920
<v Speaker 13>around them. They'll build and all this front. I mean

852
00:53:17.960 --> 00:53:19.920
<v Speaker 13>if they build right in the middle of you know,

853
00:53:19.960 --> 00:53:23.159
<v Speaker 13>a timber box and you try to say, hey man,

854
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:25.199
<v Speaker 13>you got you you should clear to see I'm not

855
00:53:25.239 --> 00:53:29.159
<v Speaker 13>in Kentucky. Kentucky and Ohio. We clear out things because

856
00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:34.280
<v Speaker 13>we know OF's coming. They'll pole right beautiful houses and

857
00:53:34.320 --> 00:53:36.480
<v Speaker 13>I like I said, I love them, but I mean

858
00:53:36.559 --> 00:53:40.960
<v Speaker 13>they just have a different mindset. They just don't get it.

859
00:53:41.000 --> 00:53:42.559
<v Speaker 8>And they're supposed to be these.

860
00:53:42.760 --> 00:53:47.679
<v Speaker 13>Natural people, natural but they won't clear around their stuff

861
00:53:48.039 --> 00:53:52.679
<v Speaker 13>and they put in the most stupidest, with all due respect,

862
00:53:52.920 --> 00:53:56.440
<v Speaker 13>stupid people like that lady was on there this morning,

863
00:53:56.800 --> 00:54:02.519
<v Speaker 13>that one in California. Man, she she talk in the

864
00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:07.199
<v Speaker 13>circle with doll do respect. They bring it on themselves.

865
00:54:07.400 --> 00:54:09.480
<v Speaker 13>I mean, look at the people they put in there.

866
00:54:09.679 --> 00:54:12.800
<v Speaker 13>They don't clear out around and you know they want

867
00:54:12.840 --> 00:54:16.000
<v Speaker 13>to save the planet, but not clearing around. But I mean,

868
00:54:16.280 --> 00:54:19.440
<v Speaker 13>they just got a different mindset with doll do respect.

869
00:54:19.480 --> 00:54:21.519
<v Speaker 8>I love them, they just don't think.

870
00:54:22.079 --> 00:54:25.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I couldn't agree more. And again, you know they

871
00:54:25.800 --> 00:54:28.800
<v Speaker 2>they want if they want to fight the existential crisis

872
00:54:28.880 --> 00:54:31.920
<v Speaker 2>they believe global climate change is, but they're not dealing

873
00:54:32.039 --> 00:54:37.000
<v Speaker 2>with the current realities of it. Like I said, concede

874
00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:39.679
<v Speaker 2>the point. It's dry in California in spite of the

875
00:54:39.679 --> 00:54:42.480
<v Speaker 2>fact they had a really wet couple of winters preceding

876
00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:44.599
<v Speaker 2>this one. We're going to ignore that. But it's been

877
00:54:44.719 --> 00:54:47.039
<v Speaker 2>dry for the last year. Oh my god, climate change

878
00:54:47.119 --> 00:54:49.599
<v Speaker 2>is refault. We didn't get any rain for one year

879
00:54:49.719 --> 00:54:51.480
<v Speaker 2>on the heels of two years worth of a lot

880
00:54:51.679 --> 00:54:54.920
<v Speaker 2>with a lot of rain. Again, ignore that, and then

881
00:54:54.960 --> 00:54:58.039
<v Speaker 2>they won't deal with the reality created by that right now,

882
00:54:58.119 --> 00:55:02.079
<v Speaker 2>which is your house is built next to a giant matchbox.

883
00:55:02.960 --> 00:55:07.960
<v Speaker 2>It's just fine. But you know what, let's pivot over.

884
00:55:09.440 --> 00:55:14.400
<v Speaker 2>My parents used to have a condo in Naples, Florida.

885
00:55:14.639 --> 00:55:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Now it was Inland. It was a condominium, second story

886
00:55:18.519 --> 00:55:23.280
<v Speaker 2>in a three story building. It had been through a

887
00:55:23.280 --> 00:55:27.119
<v Speaker 2>couple of hurricanes, you know, relatively unscathed. But in the

888
00:55:27.119 --> 00:55:32.000
<v Speaker 2>final analysis, there are people who build multi, multi million

889
00:55:32.119 --> 00:55:38.320
<v Speaker 2>dollar homes where right there on the beach, and they

890
00:55:38.320 --> 00:55:42.199
<v Speaker 2>get hurricanes there, and the hurricanes wipe out multi multi

891
00:55:42.280 --> 00:55:46.760
<v Speaker 2>billion dollar homes. Those little strips of of of of

892
00:55:47.079 --> 00:55:50.960
<v Speaker 2>a barrier islands out there like that we saw devastated

893
00:55:50.960 --> 00:55:53.360
<v Speaker 2>by the most recent hurricane. I mean, do you think

894
00:55:53.400 --> 00:55:58.119
<v Speaker 2>it's prudent or smart to invest that much money in

895
00:55:58.199 --> 00:56:01.480
<v Speaker 2>a home when literally even a low level hurricane is

896
00:56:01.480 --> 00:56:04.599
<v Speaker 2>going to be washing waves up across it because well,

897
00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:07.800
<v Speaker 2>the elevation of the little barrier island is only about

898
00:56:07.800 --> 00:56:10.360
<v Speaker 2>three feet above sea level. Does that sound like a

899
00:56:10.400 --> 00:56:13.719
<v Speaker 2>smart place to construct a home? I mean, back when

900
00:56:13.760 --> 00:56:15.800
<v Speaker 2>New Orleans got hit by the hurricane, I mean, lord,

901
00:56:15.840 --> 00:56:18.519
<v Speaker 2>how amighty hell hell broke loose on that? I made

902
00:56:18.559 --> 00:56:20.679
<v Speaker 2>a point a bunch of times. You know, who's the

903
00:56:20.719 --> 00:56:23.800
<v Speaker 2>guy with the bright idea to build a city that's

904
00:56:23.920 --> 00:56:29.119
<v Speaker 2>below sea level right there where they get hurricanes? And

905
00:56:29.159 --> 00:56:32.480
<v Speaker 2>they have historically because well, hurricanes have been happening. I

906
00:56:32.480 --> 00:56:36.920
<v Speaker 2>guess as long as the globe's been spinning, Oh, it's

907
00:56:36.920 --> 00:56:40.519
<v Speaker 2>never going to happen to me. Well, that's why insurance

908
00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:43.639
<v Speaker 2>companies should be allowed to price the cost of insurance

909
00:56:44.000 --> 00:56:47.519
<v Speaker 2>based upon the risk presented. Let's see, might there be

910
00:56:47.599 --> 00:56:51.400
<v Speaker 2>a flooding risk when you're a city is below sea level? Check?

911
00:56:53.360 --> 00:56:59.039
<v Speaker 2>Is your city in a hurricane zone? Check? You know

912
00:56:59.119 --> 00:57:01.639
<v Speaker 2>what your a flood insurance and your hurricane insurance is

913
00:57:01.639 --> 00:57:04.800
<v Speaker 2>going to cost an arm and a blankened leg because

914
00:57:04.880 --> 00:57:07.079
<v Speaker 2>you insist on living in an area that could be

915
00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:12.760
<v Speaker 2>completely devastated by something that occurs in nature fairly regularly

916
00:57:12.960 --> 00:57:18.760
<v Speaker 2>and always has six twenty five afty five KRC detalk station.

917
00:57:18.840 --> 00:57:20.800
<v Speaker 2>And I know these people have stafte some place to live.

918
00:57:20.920 --> 00:57:23.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying Pacific policies should never have been built,

919
00:57:23.360 --> 00:57:25.840
<v Speaker 2>but I'm saying the officials that run the show out

920
00:57:25.880 --> 00:57:29.159
<v Speaker 2>there should have taken broader steps and measures to done

921
00:57:29.400 --> 00:57:33.360
<v Speaker 2>something along the lines of protecting their people. Hell, they've

922
00:57:33.360 --> 00:57:36.920
<v Speaker 2>had wildfires started because well the power company wasn't bothering

923
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:41.280
<v Speaker 2>to keep up and maintain its power lines. We learned

924
00:57:41.320 --> 00:57:42.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot about that.

925
00:57:42.639 --> 00:57:42.840
<v Speaker 9>Hmm.

926
00:57:42.960 --> 00:57:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Could power lines start a fire? Maybe, uh yeah, lightning too.

927
00:57:47.760 --> 00:57:50.679
<v Speaker 2>You might want to take that into consideration. Six twenty

<v Speaker 7>So welcome back, well, Brian, Happy new Year to you

977

<v Speaker 7>and all your listeners. I'm glad to be here and

978
01:00:24.960 --> 01:00:28.719
<v Speaker 7>glad you're back, and looking forward to hopefully another good

979
01:00:28.800 --> 01:00:31.559
<v Speaker 7>year of crazy tech topics.

980
01:00:32.320 --> 01:00:35.119
<v Speaker 2>You know that's going to be crazy tech topics. Oh yeah,

981
01:00:35.760 --> 01:00:39.760
<v Speaker 2>all right, as I try to clear my throat, looks

982
01:00:39.760 --> 01:00:43.639
<v Speaker 2>like Mark Zuckerberg has well found Jesus or something. He

983
01:00:43.679 --> 01:00:47.280
<v Speaker 2>fired his so called fact checkers, and I thought it

984
01:00:47.320 --> 01:00:50.199
<v Speaker 2>was a big, mean, like a comedic fun fest that

985
01:00:50.280 --> 01:00:53.519
<v Speaker 2>the fact checkers fact checked themselves and said they weren't biased,

986
01:00:53.519 --> 01:00:56.920
<v Speaker 2>And that's been kind of going around as a side

987
01:00:56.920 --> 01:01:00.800
<v Speaker 2>splitting response for being fired. But leads is the name

988
01:01:00.840 --> 01:01:03.840
<v Speaker 2>of this entity, and they were I guess subcontractors to

989
01:01:04.840 --> 01:01:07.599
<v Speaker 2>to well take delete posts that you and I would

990
01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:09.440
<v Speaker 2>put up online.

991
01:01:09.719 --> 01:01:12.840
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it's been interesting to watch this play out. It

992
01:01:12.880 --> 01:01:15.039
<v Speaker 7>was kind of surprising to me when this news broke

993
01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:18.840
<v Speaker 7>and the reaction to it has definitely been interesting, kind

994
01:01:18.840 --> 01:01:22.039
<v Speaker 7>of from the Truth is Strangers in Fiction department, I mean,

995
01:01:22.559 --> 01:01:25.920
<v Speaker 7>you know, ten years ago, we probably both would have

996
01:01:26.000 --> 01:01:28.079
<v Speaker 7>laughed if we would have thought, hey, this kind of

997
01:01:28.159 --> 01:01:29.960
<v Speaker 7>thing would happen in the first place, and then b

998
01:01:30.079 --> 01:01:33.760
<v Speaker 7>we'd be talking about the reaction when it gets pulled out.

999
01:01:34.400 --> 01:01:37.639
<v Speaker 7>You know, the community notes feature, because from what I've

1000
01:01:37.679 --> 01:01:41.239
<v Speaker 7>seen from Zuckerberg, he's basically indicated that they're going to

1001
01:01:41.320 --> 01:01:46.079
<v Speaker 7>switch on meta platforms Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, et cetera to

1002
01:01:46.199 --> 01:01:49.519
<v Speaker 7>more of an approach like ex uses right x slash Twitter.

1003
01:01:49.639 --> 01:01:52.800
<v Speaker 7>They have this community approach feature or community notes feature,

1004
01:01:53.519 --> 01:01:57.360
<v Speaker 7>where if somebody questions something, you know, you'll get a

1005
01:01:57.400 --> 01:02:01.400
<v Speaker 7>community note and in many cases, like Musk himself, will

1006
01:02:01.440 --> 01:02:04.199
<v Speaker 7>ask is this true community news? And you know you'll

1007
01:02:04.199 --> 01:02:06.760
<v Speaker 7>get a response. And the way it works over there

1008
01:02:06.880 --> 01:02:09.079
<v Speaker 7>is there's, you know, a group of people, people from

1009
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:12.639
<v Speaker 7>each side, and then the consensus of that becomes the

1010
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:15.440
<v Speaker 7>community more or less. It's a little more complicated than that,

1011
01:02:15.559 --> 01:02:20.320
<v Speaker 7>but you know, it basically provides a way to question

1012
01:02:20.519 --> 01:02:24.280
<v Speaker 7>the validity of something without necessarily taking it down right,

1013
01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:28.440
<v Speaker 7>And Musk has gotten community notes himself a couple of times,

1014
01:02:28.480 --> 01:02:31.320
<v Speaker 7>so it's interesting the way it works. I think it

1015
01:02:31.360 --> 01:02:34.280
<v Speaker 7>works pretty well, and from what I've seen from Zuckerberg.

1016
01:02:34.400 --> 01:02:36.360
<v Speaker 7>That's the approach they're going to take here, which has

1017
01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:40.719
<v Speaker 7>apparently made a lot of people who apparently appreciated the

1018
01:02:40.840 --> 01:02:46.519
<v Speaker 7>censorship very unhappy. I've seen some inside Baseball notes. I mean,

1019
01:02:46.559 --> 01:02:48.800
<v Speaker 7>who knows what's really true, Brian that you know now

1020
01:02:48.840 --> 01:02:52.559
<v Speaker 7>there's like chaos inside Meta because people are really unhappy

1021
01:02:52.599 --> 01:02:55.159
<v Speaker 7>about this change in direction. So, you know, I'm not

1022
01:02:55.199 --> 01:02:57.159
<v Speaker 7>a fan of Meta to begin with. I think it's

1023
01:02:57.159 --> 01:02:59.920
<v Speaker 7>definitely a step in the right direction, assuming they do

1024
01:03:00.119 --> 01:03:02.599
<v Speaker 7>it the way that X does it. But I guess

1025
01:03:02.639 --> 01:03:03.599
<v Speaker 7>we'll see what happens.

1026
01:03:04.039 --> 01:03:04.199
<v Speaker 8>Well.

1027
01:03:04.239 --> 01:03:05.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess my question is, what are they afraid of?

1028
01:03:07.360 --> 01:03:12.000
<v Speaker 7>A good question? You know, the whole idea of community

1029
01:03:12.039 --> 01:03:14.679
<v Speaker 7>notes again, as I understand it anyway, I mean, I

1030
01:03:14.719 --> 01:03:16.599
<v Speaker 7>only know what I've read about it and seen the

1031
01:03:16.679 --> 01:03:19.159
<v Speaker 7>way it's worked real time on X. I like X.

1032
01:03:19.199 --> 01:03:21.599
<v Speaker 7>I'm a fan of X. I think X is probably

1033
01:03:21.599 --> 01:03:24.159
<v Speaker 7>the best place to go to get information quickly and

1034
01:03:24.199 --> 01:03:27.800
<v Speaker 7>to get what I would describe is more accurate information,

1035
01:03:27.920 --> 01:03:30.239
<v Speaker 7>simply because of the community notes feature and the fact

1036
01:03:30.280 --> 01:03:33.199
<v Speaker 7>that people can challenge things and you have, you know,

1037
01:03:33.360 --> 01:03:36.880
<v Speaker 7>folks who can then weigh in on it. So I'm

1038
01:03:36.920 --> 01:03:39.719
<v Speaker 7>a huge fan of X, especially for anything technology and

1039
01:03:39.760 --> 01:03:43.000
<v Speaker 7>cybersecurity related. It's by far the best place to go

1040
01:03:43.119 --> 01:03:46.840
<v Speaker 7>to get information quickly and know that you've got this

1041
01:03:47.039 --> 01:03:52.719
<v Speaker 7>community notes capability to provide some legitimacity good for lack

1042
01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:55.800
<v Speaker 7>of a better description, So yeah, balance that and legitimacy again,

1043
01:03:55.840 --> 01:03:58.559
<v Speaker 7>because people can say whatever crazy thing they want, and

1044
01:03:58.599 --> 01:04:00.159
<v Speaker 7>then you will have people say, well, no, that's it's

1045
01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:02.280
<v Speaker 7>not right. You know, here's the community note on why

1046
01:04:02.360 --> 01:04:03.199
<v Speaker 7>that's not the case.

1047
01:04:03.280 --> 01:04:08.239
<v Speaker 2>So it's like a footnote, like citing a reference source.

1048
01:04:08.280 --> 01:04:12.559
<v Speaker 2>So if I post something random without any citation, someone

1049
01:04:12.599 --> 01:04:15.239
<v Speaker 2>on community notes can say, no, you're wrong, and here

1050
01:04:15.400 --> 01:04:18.400
<v Speaker 2>is the learned treatise which points out all the reasons

1051
01:04:18.400 --> 01:04:20.360
<v Speaker 2>you're wrong. Here's a link that kind of thing.

1052
01:04:20.960 --> 01:04:26.280
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, exactly. So, so I applaud Zuckerberg for moving in

1053
01:04:26.320 --> 01:04:29.159
<v Speaker 7>this direction. I think it's the right direction. I think

1054
01:04:29.159 --> 01:04:33.199
<v Speaker 7>it's interesting because of the rivalry between Musk and Zuckerberg.

1055
01:04:33.239 --> 01:04:34.920
<v Speaker 7>If you remember, at one point they were talking about

1056
01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:38.840
<v Speaker 7>having some sort of MMA fight. Yeah, I think it's

1057
01:04:38.880 --> 01:04:42.679
<v Speaker 7>really interesting that. You know, Zuckerberg actually when he announced this,

1058
01:04:43.119 --> 01:04:45.079
<v Speaker 7>said that, you know, this approach is going to be

1059
01:04:45.079 --> 01:04:49.679
<v Speaker 7>more like X, so you know, it remains to be seen.

1060
01:04:49.800 --> 01:04:52.039
<v Speaker 7>I haven't noticed any different, you know, with all these

1061
01:04:52.039 --> 01:04:54.360
<v Speaker 7>snow emergencies and so forth. I've been spent a lot

1062
01:04:54.360 --> 01:04:58.039
<v Speaker 7>of time on Facebook here lately. I haven't seen any

1063
01:04:58.119 --> 01:05:01.000
<v Speaker 7>difference in the way it behaves currently. Now, maybe that's

1064
01:05:01.039 --> 01:05:03.719
<v Speaker 7>just because no one I know has gotten a community

1065
01:05:03.800 --> 01:05:05.800
<v Speaker 7>note or whatever they're going to call it on Facebook.

1066
01:05:05.840 --> 01:05:09.880
<v Speaker 7>I don't. I don't recall him giving it a title

1067
01:05:10.039 --> 01:05:13.599
<v Speaker 7>like that, right, So we'll see. But I think it's

1068
01:05:13.599 --> 01:05:15.599
<v Speaker 7>a step in the right direction and a positive move,

1069
01:05:15.639 --> 01:05:17.960
<v Speaker 7>assuming they actually do what they said they're going to do.

1070
01:05:18.079 --> 01:05:19.920
<v Speaker 2>But I won't forgive him for working with the Department

1071
01:05:19.960 --> 01:05:23.519
<v Speaker 2>of Justice to censor our communications and incorporate them and

1072
01:05:23.559 --> 01:05:26.639
<v Speaker 2>bring them into the physical structure of the building in

1073
01:05:26.719 --> 01:05:29.880
<v Speaker 2>order to tell people what is and what canon cannot

1074
01:05:29.920 --> 01:05:32.280
<v Speaker 2>be seen. He's not worthy of forgiveness for that, even

1075
01:05:32.320 --> 01:05:35.119
<v Speaker 2>though he has seen the light. Let's continue with Dave

1120
01:07:47.599 --> 01:07:50.519
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we need interest I its help with our government

1121
01:07:50.840 --> 01:07:54.280
<v Speaker 2>computers because the Chinese hackers have been hard at work.

1122
01:07:54.360 --> 01:07:57.920
<v Speaker 2>What's this one about? I saw this alert from the FBI.

1123
01:07:58.159 --> 01:08:00.239
<v Speaker 2>This is frightening stuff day.

1124
01:08:01.119 --> 01:08:03.639
<v Speaker 7>It really is, Brian, because when you look at the

1125
01:08:03.639 --> 01:08:05.840
<v Speaker 7>big picture, right, take the hacking out of it for

1126
01:08:05.840 --> 01:08:07.840
<v Speaker 7>a second. I mean, if you're paying the attention to

1127
01:08:07.880 --> 01:08:10.760
<v Speaker 7>the news at all, almost everywhere you look there's some

1128
01:08:10.800 --> 01:08:15.199
<v Speaker 7>sort of potential or active conflict with the Chinese Communist Party.

1129
01:08:15.679 --> 01:08:19.079
<v Speaker 7>You know, there have been stories about Chinese ships dragging

1130
01:08:19.119 --> 01:08:21.840
<v Speaker 7>their anchors and ripping up the undersea cables that power

1131
01:08:21.920 --> 01:08:26.680
<v Speaker 7>the Internet yep, you know, increasingly critical in our interconnected world.

1132
01:08:26.840 --> 01:08:30.279
<v Speaker 7>There have been stories about the Chinese Coastguard and navy,

1133
01:08:30.399 --> 01:08:35.600
<v Speaker 7>you know, interfering with ships and around Taiwan, we've seen,

1134
01:08:35.680 --> 01:08:38.800
<v Speaker 7>you know, all kinds of complaints and concerns about Chinese

1135
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:43.279
<v Speaker 7>apps like TikTok or Temu collecting your data, and so

1136
01:08:43.760 --> 01:08:48.920
<v Speaker 7>anywhere you look there's friction with the Chinese Communist Party. Again,

1137
01:08:48.960 --> 01:08:51.520
<v Speaker 7>I hate this. You know, the people of China are great.

1138
01:08:51.640 --> 01:08:55.000
<v Speaker 7>The government is a problem. It's increasingly adversarial to us.

1139
01:08:55.439 --> 01:08:58.079
<v Speaker 7>We continue to use their apps and buy their products,

1140
01:08:58.119 --> 01:09:02.920
<v Speaker 7>which which funds their ability to take these adversarial positions

1141
01:09:02.960 --> 01:09:05.680
<v Speaker 7>with us, and then you know, it's probably been almost

1142
01:09:05.680 --> 01:09:10.960
<v Speaker 7>two months since this story force broke that Chinese hackers

1143
01:09:11.319 --> 01:09:15.439
<v Speaker 7>had broken into various telecom companies and their networks. And

1144
01:09:15.479 --> 01:09:17.800
<v Speaker 7>as the story unfolds, you know, and this is this

1145
01:09:17.920 --> 01:09:20.399
<v Speaker 7>is almost always the case anytime you hear about some

1146
01:09:20.479 --> 01:09:24.359
<v Speaker 7>sort of breach or hack like this, usually over time,

1147
01:09:24.439 --> 01:09:27.000
<v Speaker 7>as more forensics are done, it's much worse than whatever

1148
01:09:27.119 --> 01:09:31.039
<v Speaker 7>was intentionally and originally reported. And as we've seen here

1149
01:09:31.079 --> 01:09:35.479
<v Speaker 7>now apparently there's at least nine big telecom companies, people

1150
01:09:35.560 --> 01:09:38.840
<v Speaker 7>like Verizon, AT and t et cetera, that have had

1151
01:09:39.079 --> 01:09:43.600
<v Speaker 7>some type of hacker infiltration into their networks. I think

1152
01:09:43.680 --> 01:09:45.840
<v Speaker 7>this was probably right around the time you went on break.

1153
01:09:45.840 --> 01:09:47.600
<v Speaker 7>It might have been Kevin I talked to about this.

1154
01:09:47.760 --> 01:09:51.399
<v Speaker 7>It's ironic because for a long time, you may recall, Brian,

1155
01:09:51.479 --> 01:09:53.279
<v Speaker 7>we've talked about it many times over the years, the

1156
01:09:54.039 --> 01:09:57.319
<v Speaker 7>FBI and other law enforcement agencies have been against end

1157
01:09:57.359 --> 01:09:59.720
<v Speaker 7>to end encryption because it makes it difficult, if not

1158
01:09:59.760 --> 01:10:02.840
<v Speaker 7>in possible, for them to get into people's stuff.

1159
01:10:02.920 --> 01:10:03.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1160
01:10:03.359 --> 01:10:06.960
<v Speaker 7>Well, as a result of this hacking that again continues

1161
01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:11.039
<v Speaker 7>to be revealed apparently in worse and worse ways. You know,

1162
01:10:11.119 --> 01:10:13.560
<v Speaker 7>now they've come out, the FBI has encouraged people to

1163
01:10:13.680 --> 01:10:16.479
<v Speaker 7>use the end to end encryption. End to end encryption

1164
01:10:16.520 --> 01:10:19.640
<v Speaker 7>would be an app like Signal where at no point,

1165
01:10:19.680 --> 01:10:21.880
<v Speaker 7>you know, if I can get your device and unlock it,

1166
01:10:21.920 --> 01:10:23.920
<v Speaker 7>I could read your messages. But if I can't unlock

1167
01:10:23.960 --> 01:10:28.119
<v Speaker 7>your device, Signal doesn't have the key to unencrypt the data.

1168
01:10:28.439 --> 01:10:30.680
<v Speaker 7>Only the person at the other end would. So you know,

1169
01:10:30.760 --> 01:10:32.760
<v Speaker 7>that's the idea of end to end encryption. The data

1170
01:10:32.800 --> 01:10:36.239
<v Speaker 7>is encrypted all the way through the channels, all the

1171
01:10:36.239 --> 01:10:38.920
<v Speaker 7>way to both ends, only the authorized people that have

1172
01:10:39.000 --> 01:10:41.520
<v Speaker 7>the right keys can decrypt it. That's kind of a

1173
01:10:41.560 --> 01:10:45.560
<v Speaker 7>layman's explanation. So when you see them telling everyone that

1174
01:10:45.560 --> 01:10:48.960
<v Speaker 7>they should stop using unencrypted apps and they should only

1175
01:10:49.079 --> 01:10:53.479
<v Speaker 7>use encrypted apps, despite they're raising all kinds of cane

1176
01:10:53.479 --> 01:10:56.479
<v Speaker 7>about not being able to access this data when they have,

1177
01:10:56.960 --> 01:11:00.399
<v Speaker 7>you know, legitimate criminal activity they want to investigate. That

1178
01:11:00.439 --> 01:11:02.600
<v Speaker 7>should be a real wake up call to people. And

1179
01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:05.079
<v Speaker 7>you know, as best I can tell from all the reporting,

1180
01:11:06.840 --> 01:11:09.039
<v Speaker 7>there's no guarantee they've even gotten these people out of

1181
01:11:09.039 --> 01:11:11.319
<v Speaker 7>all these things. And they think about this for a second, Brian,

1182
01:11:12.039 --> 01:11:14.920
<v Speaker 7>you know, everything is digital Everything you do is online,

1183
01:11:15.239 --> 01:11:17.920
<v Speaker 7>you know, whether it's a phone call, a text, an email,

1184
01:11:18.359 --> 01:11:21.000
<v Speaker 7>your social media, whatever. You know, it's all going through

1185
01:11:21.000 --> 01:11:24.119
<v Speaker 7>these networks. So if it's not into end encrypted in

1186
01:11:24.239 --> 01:11:27.800
<v Speaker 7>theory they have, they could have, and possibly are still

1187
01:11:27.960 --> 01:11:33.159
<v Speaker 7>sucking up everything that's not encrypted. It's it's bad not

1188
01:11:33.279 --> 01:11:35.960
<v Speaker 7>to mention. You know that the data is one aspect

1189
01:11:36.000 --> 01:11:38.880
<v Speaker 7>of it. The other aspect is do they have persistent

1190
01:11:38.920 --> 01:11:42.399
<v Speaker 7>footholds in these networks that they could shut down if

1191
01:11:42.439 --> 01:11:44.199
<v Speaker 7>they wanted to? And then think of the chaos that

1192
01:11:44.359 --> 01:11:47.520
<v Speaker 7>was to think of what happened with CrowdStrike. Now, imagine

1193
01:11:48.119 --> 01:11:52.039
<v Speaker 7>if you could shut down basically everything because the networks

1194
01:11:52.039 --> 01:11:53.439
<v Speaker 7>that make it work go down.

1195
01:11:55.560 --> 01:11:58.439
<v Speaker 2>I trust me, I have you through my in my

1196
01:11:58.560 --> 01:12:02.239
<v Speaker 2>mind gone through the ripple effect horrors of something like that.

1197
01:12:02.920 --> 01:12:05.399
<v Speaker 2>And you know the idea that the Chinese Communist Party

1198
01:12:05.479 --> 01:12:09.560
<v Speaker 2>at any given moment could flip a switch and turn

1199
01:12:09.640 --> 01:12:12.079
<v Speaker 2>the power off or stop the water flowing, which is

1200
01:12:12.119 --> 01:12:16.720
<v Speaker 2>certainly a genuine possibility under these circumstances, it's the scenarios

1201
01:12:16.800 --> 01:12:19.359
<v Speaker 2>are nightmarish.

1202
01:12:19.439 --> 01:12:21.960
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I know this probably sounds far fetched to a

1203
01:12:21.960 --> 01:12:25.439
<v Speaker 7>lot of people, especially if you haven't paid any attention

1204
01:12:25.560 --> 01:12:28.680
<v Speaker 7>to the story. But I mean what you just described

1205
01:12:28.760 --> 01:12:34.000
<v Speaker 7>is absolutely well within possibilities. Yes, I'm not saying it's

1206
01:12:34.000 --> 01:12:36.279
<v Speaker 7>going to happen. I certainly hope it does not happen.

1207
01:12:37.439 --> 01:12:41.359
<v Speaker 7>But because everything is interconnected, because everything is digital, you know,

1208
01:12:41.680 --> 01:12:44.880
<v Speaker 7>at least you could cause some serious supply chain disruptions

1209
01:12:44.960 --> 01:12:46.560
<v Speaker 7>if you were able to knock all of this out

1210
01:12:46.600 --> 01:12:50.079
<v Speaker 7>for any significant period of time. And you know when

1211
01:12:50.079 --> 01:12:51.880
<v Speaker 7>you really dig into this, So here you go. Now

1212
01:12:51.880 --> 01:12:54.520
<v Speaker 7>it appears the issue is more widespread than first thought.

1213
01:12:54.880 --> 01:12:57.119
<v Speaker 7>The Wall Street General reporting to the group the group

1214
01:12:57.199 --> 01:12:58.840
<v Speaker 7>soll Typhoon. I don't know where they come up with

1215
01:12:58.880 --> 01:13:02.640
<v Speaker 7>these crazy names for these nation state hackers. The salt

1216
01:13:02.720 --> 01:13:06.479
<v Speaker 7>Typhoon may have had access for quote months or longer.

1217
01:13:07.119 --> 01:13:09.960
<v Speaker 7>And again you've got our government now telling you that

1218
01:13:10.000 --> 01:13:13.760
<v Speaker 7>you should use into end encryption. That Wall Street Journal

1219
01:13:13.800 --> 01:13:16.520
<v Speaker 7>goes on to say, quote Internet traffic from Internet service

1220
01:13:16.560 --> 01:13:19.720
<v Speaker 7>providers that account business is large and small, and millions

1221
01:13:19.720 --> 01:13:24.359
<v Speaker 7>of Americans of their customers may have had data harvested

1222
01:13:24.720 --> 01:13:27.359
<v Speaker 7>by this attack. And again I'm very concerned about that

1223
01:13:27.399 --> 01:13:31.159
<v Speaker 7>they could steal trade secrets. Who knows what they would know,

1224
01:13:31.520 --> 01:13:35.319
<v Speaker 7>what they could use for blackmail, etc. But the idea

1225
01:13:35.399 --> 01:13:37.680
<v Speaker 7>that they could still be in there and have some

1226
01:13:37.760 --> 01:13:39.960
<v Speaker 7>sort of you know, to your point switch they could

1227
01:13:39.960 --> 01:13:41.920
<v Speaker 7>flip that would shut one or more of these major

1228
01:13:41.960 --> 01:13:48.680
<v Speaker 7>telecom networks down. It could be a real catastrophe. So

1229
01:13:50.760 --> 01:13:53.439
<v Speaker 7>it's long past time, Brian, for us in this country,

1230
01:13:53.520 --> 01:13:57.039
<v Speaker 7>every person, every agency to get really serious about this,

1231
01:13:57.159 --> 01:14:01.640
<v Speaker 7>because we're no longer just worried about Okay, well you

1232
01:14:01.720 --> 01:14:05.560
<v Speaker 7>crash my computer and I lost my photos. Everything is interconnected,

1233
01:14:06.279 --> 01:14:09.960
<v Speaker 7>you know. Critical systems rely on other systems downstream, and

1234
01:14:10.159 --> 01:14:14.760
<v Speaker 7>while your critical system might be perfectly secure, some downstream

1235
01:14:14.880 --> 01:14:18.119
<v Speaker 7>system that goes down may bring down the critical system.

1236
01:14:18.239 --> 01:14:21.079
<v Speaker 7>So we've got we've just got to take this seriously,

1237
01:14:21.119 --> 01:14:23.439
<v Speaker 7>and people have got to start thinking about things like

1238
01:14:23.520 --> 01:14:26.359
<v Speaker 7>privacy and security and how can I, as you know,

1239
01:14:26.640 --> 01:14:29.520
<v Speaker 7>can I use an individual stop this? No, you can't,

1240
01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:33.359
<v Speaker 7>but can use an individual start making yourself more secure,

1241
01:14:33.720 --> 01:14:38.439
<v Speaker 7>doing a better job of maintaining your privacy, which ultimately

1242
01:14:38.560 --> 01:14:41.239
<v Speaker 7>impact this all positively. Yes, and we've got to get

1243
01:14:41.279 --> 01:14:43.479
<v Speaker 7>serious about this before something terrible happens.

1244
01:14:43.520 --> 01:14:45.039
<v Speaker 2>One of the reasons I have you on the program.

1245
01:14:45.119 --> 01:14:47.880
<v Speaker 2>If you say it enough day, people may finally start

1246
01:14:47.920 --> 01:14:50.359
<v Speaker 2>listening to you. Pause from them we'll bring it back

1247
01:14:50.359 --> 01:14:53.760
<v Speaker 2>and talk about phishing attacks which have increased dramatically shocking No.

1248
01:14:53.840 --> 01:14:55.159
<v Speaker 2>One six point forty eight. Right now at your bib

1249
01:14:55.239 --> 01:14:58.119
<v Speaker 2>KST talk station Emery Federal Credit Union, you're gonna earn

1250
01:14:58.159 --> 01:15:01.439
<v Speaker 2>yourself twenty five bucks. And by referring your friends to

1251
01:15:02.279 --> 01:15:04.439
<v Speaker 2>Emory Federal Credit Union and talking to them about the

1252
01:15:04.479 --> 01:15:06.199
<v Speaker 2>benefits of banking. If you're a member, you get that

1253
01:15:06.239 --> 01:15:08.880
<v Speaker 2>twenty five dollars. When they sign up for membership at

1254
01:15:08.880 --> 01:15:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Emory Federal Credit Union, they too will get twenty five dollars.

1255
01:15:12.319 --> 01:15:15.039
<v Speaker 2>Just a little incentive to do something you should do. Anyway,

1256
01:15:15.199 --> 01:15:19.520
<v Speaker 2>the benefits of banking and Emory are definitely worth banking there.

1257
01:15:19.640 --> 01:15:21.720
<v Speaker 2>I have been banking with Emery for more than a

1258
01:15:21.760 --> 01:15:24.079
<v Speaker 2>decade and like I to point out, I do have

1259
01:15:24.359 --> 01:15:26.760
<v Speaker 2>a big bank account as well. But the rates in

1260
01:15:26.840 --> 01:15:30.079
<v Speaker 2>the customer service superior at Emory. So why not earn

1261
01:15:30.119 --> 01:15:32.720
<v Speaker 2>twenty five dollars? Become a member, tell other people about it.

1262
01:15:32.800 --> 01:15:34.720
<v Speaker 2>For every person that signs up, they too will get

1263
01:15:34.760 --> 01:15:37.119
<v Speaker 2>twenty five and so will you. To learn the details

01:15:51.960 --> 01:15:55.279
<v Speaker 2>For one more segment with Dave Hatter from interest It

1270
01:15:55.640 --> 01:15:59.399
<v Speaker 2>Online at intest i dot com Dave phishing attacks they're

1271
01:15:59.399 --> 01:16:00.479
<v Speaker 2>on the rise apparently.

1272
01:16:01.920 --> 01:16:05.079
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I'm hoping this doesn't come as a surprise for

1273
01:16:05.159 --> 01:16:08.880
<v Speaker 7>people with the stats are pretty shocking now, you know,

1274
01:16:08.920 --> 01:16:11.960
<v Speaker 7>I'm trying to get too caught up at any particular stats, Bryant,

1275
01:16:12.039 --> 01:16:15.760
<v Speaker 7>because there are numerous organizations out there tracking this, anyone

1276
01:16:15.880 --> 01:16:19.720
<v Speaker 7>from the FBI to Microsoft to you know, smaller organizations

1277
01:16:19.800 --> 01:16:22.600
<v Speaker 7>you've never heard of, but like you know, once the

1278
01:16:22.680 --> 01:16:26.600
<v Speaker 7>year Microsoft puts out a big report on cybersecurity, Verizon does.

1279
01:16:26.640 --> 01:16:28.560
<v Speaker 7>They're both very well known and you know, full of

1280
01:16:28.640 --> 01:16:32.239
<v Speaker 7>useful information, especially if you're a nerd like me. So again,

1281
01:16:32.279 --> 01:16:33.840
<v Speaker 7>I don't I don't want people to get too caught

1282
01:16:33.880 --> 01:16:36.960
<v Speaker 7>up in any particular stat but these stats are pretty alarming,

1283
01:16:37.079 --> 01:16:39.640
<v Speaker 7>and you know, sadly, because we see this every day

1284
01:16:39.680 --> 01:16:42.159
<v Speaker 7>out in the field working with prospects and clients. It's

1285
01:16:42.239 --> 01:16:45.680
<v Speaker 7>not at all surprising to me. Two hundred and two

1286
01:16:45.680 --> 01:16:48.680
<v Speaker 7>percent rise in overall phishing messages. Just in the last

1287
01:16:48.680 --> 01:16:52.760
<v Speaker 7>half of twenty twenty four, slash net, one of the

1288
01:16:53.239 --> 01:16:55.399
<v Speaker 7>one of the people who report on this fishing intelligence,

1289
01:16:55.399 --> 01:16:59.520
<v Speaker 7>support seven hundred and three percent surge and credential phishing attacks.

1290
01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:03.079
<v Speaker 7>So one of the things that I find frustrating about

1291
01:17:03.239 --> 01:17:06.279
<v Speaker 7>this industry is, you know, we come up with all

1292
01:17:06.319 --> 01:17:09.760
<v Speaker 7>this sort of technical jargon and mumbo jumbo that makes

1293
01:17:09.800 --> 01:17:12.359
<v Speaker 7>it hard for the average person to understand what it

1294
01:17:12.479 --> 01:17:16.920
<v Speaker 7>means and how it affects them. So, credential phishing is basically,

1295
01:17:18.079 --> 01:17:20.840
<v Speaker 7>in Layman's terms, I'm going to send out some kind

1296
01:17:20.880 --> 01:17:24.560
<v Speaker 7>of message. Fishing usually means email, but you've also got

1297
01:17:24.720 --> 01:17:27.560
<v Speaker 7>text based phishing, which is called smishing, You've got voice

1298
01:17:27.600 --> 01:17:30.880
<v Speaker 7>fishing fishing. So I'm going to send out some kind

1299
01:17:30.920 --> 01:17:33.760
<v Speaker 7>of message, might even be a post on social media, right,

1300
01:17:34.319 --> 01:17:37.720
<v Speaker 7>And when you click that link, usually there's some social engineering,

1301
01:17:37.760 --> 01:17:40.680
<v Speaker 7>there's some urgency you've got to do something before some

1302
01:17:40.800 --> 01:17:43.720
<v Speaker 7>terrible thing happens. Right, And when you click that link,

1303
01:17:43.760 --> 01:17:45.720
<v Speaker 7>you're going to end up on a log in page

1304
01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:48.560
<v Speaker 7>that looks exactly like the Microsoft that they sixty five

1305
01:17:48.640 --> 01:17:51.960
<v Speaker 7>log in, or exactly like the Google log in. So normally,

1306
01:17:51.960 --> 01:17:54.439
<v Speaker 7>when you hear credential fishing. They're trying to steal your

1307
01:17:54.520 --> 01:17:58.159
<v Speaker 7>user name and password because either because it's a targeted

1308
01:17:58.159 --> 01:18:01.119
<v Speaker 7>attack on a specific site, or because they know that

1309
01:18:01.239 --> 01:18:04.000
<v Speaker 7>people use the same user names and passwords over and

1310
01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:06.199
<v Speaker 7>over and if I can steal your user name and

1311
01:18:06.239 --> 01:18:09.920
<v Speaker 7>password your credentials for Facebook, that might also work for

1312
01:18:10.119 --> 01:18:13.399
<v Speaker 7>your bank or your email or whatever. Right, So to

1313
01:18:13.439 --> 01:18:17.000
<v Speaker 7>hear credential fishing, that's what they're talking about seven hundred

1314
01:18:17.000 --> 01:18:20.199
<v Speaker 7>and three percent surge. So why would that occur, Well,

1315
01:18:20.239 --> 01:18:23.520
<v Speaker 7>because they know many people use the same username and

1316
01:18:23.560 --> 01:18:25.880
<v Speaker 7>password on multiple accounts, and if I can get it

1317
01:18:25.920 --> 01:18:28.600
<v Speaker 7>for one, there's no telling what else I might be

1318
01:18:28.680 --> 01:18:32.319
<v Speaker 7>able to get into of yours and either impersonate to

1319
01:18:32.359 --> 01:18:35.520
<v Speaker 7>steal some sensitive data, or most likely and usually the

1320
01:18:35.600 --> 01:18:38.439
<v Speaker 7>end goal, to steal your money. And by using the

1321
01:18:38.479 --> 01:18:42.079
<v Speaker 7>same user name and password, by not turning on multifacture authentication,

1322
01:18:42.479 --> 01:18:45.239
<v Speaker 7>you're making it easy. I mean, I also want to

1323
01:18:45.279 --> 01:18:48.880
<v Speaker 7>point out Brian phishing is very easy and very cheap.

1324
01:18:49.000 --> 01:18:52.399
<v Speaker 7>It costs these bad guys virtually nothing to do these attacks.

1325
01:18:53.560 --> 01:18:56.079
<v Speaker 7>So you know a seven hundred and three percent surge

1326
01:18:56.119 --> 01:18:58.319
<v Speaker 7>on one hand, Well, it's cheap and easy, so of

1327
01:18:58.319 --> 01:19:00.680
<v Speaker 7>course they're going to go up and there's more people line,

1328
01:19:01.000 --> 01:19:03.600
<v Speaker 7>but it probably wouldn't go up that much. If these

1329
01:19:03.600 --> 01:19:06.399
<v Speaker 7>things weren't effective, right, they would figure out other ways

1330
01:19:06.399 --> 01:19:09.119
<v Speaker 7>to steal your money. So you know, when I see

1331
01:19:09.119 --> 01:19:11.399
<v Speaker 7>a surge like that, it tells me these things must

1332
01:19:11.399 --> 01:19:14.239
<v Speaker 7>be working. And they mentioned in this article, you know

1333
01:19:14.319 --> 01:19:16.960
<v Speaker 7>there's more of a shift to mobile based platforms again,

1334
01:19:17.079 --> 01:19:20.239
<v Speaker 7>things like your texts. They know it's harder to look

1335
01:19:20.279 --> 01:19:23.159
<v Speaker 7>at an email on a mobile device, or certainly a

1336
01:19:23.199 --> 01:19:25.399
<v Speaker 7>text on a mobile device and know whether it's legitimate

1337
01:19:25.479 --> 01:19:28.640
<v Speaker 7>or not. They reported mobile users face up the six

1338
01:19:28.720 --> 01:19:31.960
<v Speaker 7>hundred threats annually. Underscoring is shift away from email only

1339
01:19:32.000 --> 01:19:38.439
<v Speaker 7>phishing to multi channel approaches again, text, voice calls, postings

1340
01:19:38.439 --> 01:19:41.800
<v Speaker 7>on social media, and you know they break it down further.

1341
01:19:41.840 --> 01:19:44.079
<v Speaker 7>I know we're amount of time here link based threats.

1342
01:19:44.720 --> 01:19:47.000
<v Speaker 7>You know, another reason why these things are effective is

1343
01:19:47.199 --> 01:19:50.439
<v Speaker 7>when the good guys like Intrust are out there putting

1344
01:19:50.439 --> 01:19:52.960
<v Speaker 7>in systems to try to help your business eat this

1345
01:19:53.039 --> 01:19:55.920
<v Speaker 7>stuff before it ever gets delivered to people. Okay, so

1346
01:19:56.039 --> 01:19:58.760
<v Speaker 7>phishing attack A comes out, it points to some known

1347
01:19:58.800 --> 01:20:02.399
<v Speaker 7>website that's trying to harvest your credentials and it's Okay,

1348
01:20:02.479 --> 01:20:04.439
<v Speaker 7>so we can block that. Well, then they just set

1349
01:20:04.520 --> 01:20:06.359
<v Speaker 7>up a new one and then they send out another

1350
01:20:06.439 --> 01:20:09.840
<v Speaker 7>round of fission. So until that new site that's trying

1351
01:20:09.880 --> 01:20:14.000
<v Speaker 7>to harvest your credentials is discovered, it works. So so

1352
01:20:14.159 --> 01:20:17.000
<v Speaker 7>much of this. While there's all kinds of technological solutions,

1353
01:20:17.239 --> 01:20:19.159
<v Speaker 7>and there's all kinds of things you can do working

1354
01:20:19.199 --> 01:20:21.239
<v Speaker 7>with the right partners, and that you as an individual

1355
01:20:21.279 --> 01:20:24.119
<v Speaker 7>can do. Like I mentioned in that last segment, a

1356
01:20:24.159 --> 01:20:27.119
<v Speaker 7>lot of this ultimately boils down to education and awareness

1357
01:20:27.119 --> 01:20:30.199
<v Speaker 7>and being skeptical and understanding how these things work. That

1358
01:20:30.239 --> 01:20:32.479
<v Speaker 7>it's really easy for me as a bad guy, to

1359
01:20:32.520 --> 01:20:35.079
<v Speaker 7>send out hundreds of millions of messages and to set

1360
01:20:35.159 --> 01:20:38.239
<v Speaker 7>up a website that looks exactly like the Microsoft log

1361
01:20:38.239 --> 01:20:40.600
<v Speaker 7>in page or the Google login page, and to be

1362
01:20:40.920 --> 01:20:43.800
<v Speaker 7>extremely skeptical before you click on a link and then

1363
01:20:43.960 --> 01:20:47.039
<v Speaker 7>enter your credentials. I mean, if people would just get

1364
01:20:47.119 --> 01:20:50.800
<v Speaker 7>that well understood and stop doing that, you cut an

1365
01:20:50.920 --> 01:20:52.760
<v Speaker 7>enormous amount of this sort of fraud.

1366
01:20:52.479 --> 01:20:56.239
<v Speaker 2>Out, no question about it. I don't open anything. I

1367
01:20:56.319 --> 01:20:59.600
<v Speaker 2>get an email, that's for sure, and you know, rarely

1368
01:20:59.640 --> 01:21:02.840
<v Speaker 2>do it all and to text messages either. Dave Hatter

1369

<v Speaker 2>always appreciate the sound advice. Again, heed Dave's warnings and again,

01:21:31.720 --> 01:21:33.920
<v Speaker 2>county commissioners. We've got quite a bit to talk about

1382
01:21:33.920 --> 01:21:35.399
<v Speaker 2>with Todd in studio.

1383

<v Speaker 9>Of the hour.

1386
01:21:41.760 --> 01:21:43.880
<v Speaker 7>A critical message, but it's important.

1387
01:21:43.880 --> 01:21:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Fifty five KRC the talk station.

1388

<v Speaker 2>It's seven six here at fifty five ker City Talk Station.

1392
01:22:09.000 --> 01:22:12.000
<v Speaker 2>We're calling him our watchdog as city council as well

1393
01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:14.680
<v Speaker 2>as the Kenny Commissioner. Todd Zenzer the fifth Inspector General

1394
01:22:14.720 --> 01:22:17.279
<v Speaker 2>of the United States Department of Commerce back when he

1395
01:22:17.319 --> 01:22:19.600
<v Speaker 2>was sworn in in December of seven. He's got an

1396
01:22:19.600 --> 01:22:23.479
<v Speaker 2>amazing background. He does crunch numbers, he does pay attention,

1397
01:22:23.920 --> 01:22:26.039
<v Speaker 2>and he does show up at city council meetings from

1398
01:22:26.079 --> 01:22:28.039
<v Speaker 2>time to time. Todd Zenzer, Happy New Year to you,

1399
01:22:28.079 --> 01:22:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back, man. It's always great talking with you.

1400
01:22:29.960 --> 01:22:31.199
<v Speaker 12>Thank you, Brian, Happy new year.

1401
01:22:31.279 --> 01:22:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Always appreciate your thoughtful and insightful information. Let us begin,

1402
01:22:35.720 --> 01:22:37.079
<v Speaker 2>if we may. I know we got a lot to

1403
01:22:37.079 --> 01:22:41.319
<v Speaker 2>talk about, including the shooting information as well as the

1404
01:22:41.359 --> 01:22:46.079
<v Speaker 2>new arena. New arena anyway, but let's start with since

1405
01:22:46.119 --> 01:22:49.119
<v Speaker 2>a council meetings. I understand from our off air conversation

1406
01:22:49.239 --> 01:22:53.119
<v Speaker 2>you were there at the meeting on Wednesday and was

1407
01:22:53.159 --> 01:22:56.399
<v Speaker 2>the city hard at work doing city council business relating

1408
01:22:56.439 --> 01:22:57.960
<v Speaker 2>to matters within the city.

1409
01:22:58.720 --> 01:23:02.880
<v Speaker 12>Well, yeah, you're given an opportunity. Theoretically, you're given two

1410
01:23:02.880 --> 01:23:07.520
<v Speaker 12>minutes to make public comments before every city council meeting.

1411
01:23:07.600 --> 01:23:09.279
<v Speaker 12>You go in, you fill out the card, tell them

1412
01:23:09.279 --> 01:23:12.079
<v Speaker 12>what you want to talk about. But for the last

1413
01:23:12.399 --> 01:23:16.920
<v Speaker 12>year and four months, the public comment period has been

1414
01:23:16.960 --> 01:23:22.079
<v Speaker 12>dominated by supporters of the Palestinians or the people in Gaza,

1415
01:23:23.119 --> 01:23:28.920
<v Speaker 12>and they're very passionate, they're very emotional when they speak.

1416
01:23:30.680 --> 01:23:36.000
<v Speaker 12>There were probably, I think there were only six supporters

1417
01:23:36.039 --> 01:23:43.079
<v Speaker 12>of Gaza population there on Wednesday, but in meetings past

1418
01:23:43.159 --> 01:23:46.319
<v Speaker 12>there have been dozens who get up and speak.

1419
01:23:46.520 --> 01:23:47.479
<v Speaker 7>And the.

1420
01:23:49.039 --> 01:23:52.520
<v Speaker 12>Issue is that the city council has brought this on itself.

1421
01:23:53.359 --> 01:23:57.000
<v Speaker 12>That back in October, several days after the terrorist attacks,

1422
01:23:57.039 --> 01:24:01.840
<v Speaker 12>the city council passed a resolution by the mayor and

1423
01:24:02.119 --> 01:24:07.560
<v Speaker 12>Mark Jeffries in support of Israel. And as a result

1424
01:24:07.600 --> 01:24:12.560
<v Speaker 12>of that, the supporters of the Palestinians have come in

1425
01:24:12.720 --> 01:24:17.960
<v Speaker 12>every week and made a plea to the city council

1426
01:24:18.159 --> 01:24:24.399
<v Speaker 12>to condemn Israel and calling for a boycott or of whatever,

1427
01:24:25.279 --> 01:24:28.119
<v Speaker 12>not sending any weapons.

1428
01:24:27.800 --> 01:24:31.359
<v Speaker 2>Divesting because the city has such a real tight connection

1429
01:24:31.560 --> 01:24:34.800
<v Speaker 2>with the affairs of Israel and Palestine, and of course

1430
01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:37.720
<v Speaker 2>the city is in a position to do something about it.

1431
01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:38.479
<v Speaker 1>Right.

1432
01:24:38.840 --> 01:24:43.800
<v Speaker 12>Well, there are people very upset with the city council

1433
01:24:44.119 --> 01:24:45.680
<v Speaker 12>forgetting us in this situation.

1434
01:24:45.880 --> 01:24:49.399
<v Speaker 2>Well, I understand that because regardless of where you are

1435
01:24:49.640 --> 01:24:52.279
<v Speaker 2>on the situation, you're in favor of Israel, you're in

1436
01:24:52.359 --> 01:24:54.720
<v Speaker 2>favor of Palestine. You're in favor of, I don't know,

1437
01:24:55.720 --> 01:24:59.720
<v Speaker 2>naval contemplation. The city has no control over it. It

1438
01:24:59.800 --> 01:25:03.439
<v Speaker 2>is it walked into an issue that it shouldn't have

1439
01:25:03.479 --> 01:25:06.920
<v Speaker 2>walked into. This is like a you know, Bud Budweiser

1440
01:25:07.039 --> 01:25:10.560
<v Speaker 2>making the foolish mistake of hiring the transvesti guy to

1441
01:25:10.600 --> 01:25:13.159
<v Speaker 2>promote bud light. I mean, why would you enter into

1442
01:25:13.239 --> 01:25:17.039
<v Speaker 2>that realm and invite the conversation. I mean, didn't you,

1443
01:25:17.079 --> 01:25:18.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, didn't they anticipate that there might be a

1444
01:25:19.000 --> 01:25:21.600
<v Speaker 2>little bit of backlash for them waiting into the controversy.

1445
01:25:21.640 --> 01:25:23.520
<v Speaker 12>I don't. I don't think. I don't think they did.

1446
01:25:23.560 --> 01:25:27.720
<v Speaker 12>Brian and the pointless gesture though. The result is that

1447
01:25:28.560 --> 01:25:33.600
<v Speaker 12>the initially the mayor would extend the public comment period

1448
01:25:34.439 --> 01:25:37.800
<v Speaker 12>until everybody was done, including members of the public who

1449
01:25:37.800 --> 01:25:41.760
<v Speaker 12>want to talk about city issues. But on Monday he

1450
01:25:41.840 --> 01:25:44.239
<v Speaker 12>announced that he was going to stick to the rules

1451
01:25:44.239 --> 01:25:47.439
<v Speaker 12>of the Council that were enacted or passed back when

1452
01:25:47.479 --> 01:25:51.640
<v Speaker 12>the back when the Council started in twenty two and

1453
01:25:51.680 --> 01:25:56.680
<v Speaker 12>its extends the public comment period for thirty minutes, and

1454
01:25:56.720 --> 01:26:00.600
<v Speaker 12>everybody gets two minutes, and if the third minutes is

1455
01:26:00.640 --> 01:26:02.800
<v Speaker 12>over and there's people waiting to talk they'll just have

1456
01:26:02.840 --> 01:26:05.439
<v Speaker 12>to come back next week. Sorry sucks they get on

1457
01:26:05.479 --> 01:26:09.159
<v Speaker 12>the list. So fortunately the meeting on Wednesday was not

1458
01:26:09.279 --> 01:26:12.199
<v Speaker 12>that well attended and there was only like three or

1459
01:26:12.239 --> 01:26:15.479
<v Speaker 12>four of us other than the supporters of the people

1460
01:26:15.520 --> 01:26:20.279
<v Speaker 12>in Gaza. So we all got a chance to speak.

1461
01:26:20.079 --> 01:26:23.600
<v Speaker 2>To speak to matters relating to the cities, affairs and

1462
01:26:23.720 --> 01:26:27.319
<v Speaker 2>things over which council has control, right like snow removal

1463
01:26:27.359 --> 01:26:27.920
<v Speaker 2>for example.

1464
01:26:28.000 --> 01:26:35.199
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, so which they all were patting themselves on the

1465
01:26:35.279 --> 01:26:38.680
<v Speaker 12>back about how well they were doing in snow removal.

1466
01:26:39.079 --> 01:26:42.039
<v Speaker 12>I mean, there's no nobody who's raising their hands saying,

1467
01:26:42.039 --> 01:26:45.079
<v Speaker 12>well what about didn't we just hear that Mount Adams is.

1468
01:26:45.680 --> 01:26:48.479
<v Speaker 2>So it's just they have anybody from Mount Adams show up.

1469
01:26:48.520 --> 01:26:49.840
<v Speaker 2>They said, whoa, whoa, whoa.

1470
01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:53.239
<v Speaker 12>So, but the city council doesn't doesn't engage in those

1471
01:26:53.319 --> 01:26:56.640
<v Speaker 12>kind of conversations. It's all for one and one for all.

1472
01:26:56.840 --> 01:27:00.239
<v Speaker 2>Right, well, how does this work? So you ignore during

1473
01:27:00.319 --> 01:27:02.520
<v Speaker 2>the whole Israel Gaza thing, And again they stepped in

1474
01:27:02.560 --> 01:27:05.359
<v Speaker 2>that fort and got themselves in a jam that in

1475
01:27:05.760 --> 01:27:10.119
<v Speaker 2>passing a resolution that ultimately has zero impact or point.

1476
01:27:11.640 --> 01:27:14.560
<v Speaker 2>But you want to talk about an issue, or you

1477
01:27:14.680 --> 01:27:17.399
<v Speaker 2>raise the issue of let's say snow removal. You get

1478
01:27:17.399 --> 01:27:20.239
<v Speaker 2>your two minute comment period. I live in Mount Adams

1479
01:27:20.279 --> 01:27:23.119
<v Speaker 2>and you guys didn't shovel a single street up there.

1480
01:27:23.199 --> 01:27:27.840
<v Speaker 2>And are are they required as a body to respond

1481
01:27:28.119 --> 01:27:31.760
<v Speaker 2>to that or do they just listen, nod attentively and

1482
01:27:31.800 --> 01:27:34.079
<v Speaker 2>when the comment period is over, move on to whatever's

1483
01:27:34.119 --> 01:27:36.600
<v Speaker 2>on the agenda in front of them, in other words,

1484
01:27:36.640 --> 01:27:39.920
<v Speaker 2>not addressing the specifics of the challenges that people bring up.

1485
01:27:39.880 --> 01:27:41.880
<v Speaker 12>In front of them. Right, it's the latter, Brian.

1486
01:27:42.119 --> 01:27:43.000
<v Speaker 2>I figure that so.

1487
01:27:44.159 --> 01:27:48.720
<v Speaker 12>And the thing you look for is whether or not

1488
01:27:48.760 --> 01:27:51.359
<v Speaker 12>they're even paying attention to you. Oh, you know, that's

1489
01:27:51.720 --> 01:27:54.640
<v Speaker 12>because they can pull their phones their phones, look at

1490
01:27:54.680 --> 01:27:58.720
<v Speaker 12>their phones. But I do think they were fairly attentive

1491
01:27:59.560 --> 01:28:01.680
<v Speaker 12>during my two minutes when I was talking about the

1492
01:28:01.720 --> 01:28:06.800
<v Speaker 12>shootings in Price Hill, because there were six or seven

1493
01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:09.680
<v Speaker 12>of them over the New Year's holiday or New Year's

1494
01:28:09.720 --> 01:28:12.079
<v Speaker 12>week and that's not normal.

1495
01:28:12.479 --> 01:28:14.479
<v Speaker 2>No, it's not. And I know we're we're definitely going

1496
01:28:14.560 --> 01:28:16.840
<v Speaker 2>to focus on that in detail when we come up

1497
01:28:16.840 --> 01:28:20.640
<v Speaker 2>after the next break. But insofar as the agenda items

1498
01:28:20.640 --> 01:28:26.319
<v Speaker 2>on the council's agenda, did they have anything that you know,

1499
01:28:27.279 --> 01:28:29.000
<v Speaker 2>that had a point or that was going to that

1500
01:28:29.039 --> 01:28:31.239
<v Speaker 2>it is going to impact the population of the city

1501
01:28:31.239 --> 01:28:33.560
<v Speaker 2>of Cincinnati. I mean, what would they focused on.

1502
01:28:34.119 --> 01:28:37.439
<v Speaker 12>Actually was the shortest meeting I'd ever been to. It

1503
01:28:37.479 --> 01:28:40.199
<v Speaker 12>was it was over by like twenty minutes after two.

1504
01:28:40.800 --> 01:28:44.279
<v Speaker 12>The only I guess they're setting up things for the

1505
01:28:44.359 --> 01:28:48.319
<v Speaker 12>coming year. But the only thing on the on the agenda,

1506
01:28:48.399 --> 01:28:51.520
<v Speaker 12>for example, that had anything to do with money was

1507
01:28:51.560 --> 01:28:55.039
<v Speaker 12>getting approval to apply for a one hundred thousand dollars

1508
01:28:55.039 --> 01:29:03.640
<v Speaker 12>grand from Bloomberg Philanthropics for youth climate change Oh Lord program.

1509
01:29:04.199 --> 01:29:06.600
<v Speaker 12>And I guess it's an existing program in the city

1510
01:29:06.640 --> 01:29:09.399
<v Speaker 12>now that I guess Bloomberg has funded it, I don't

1511
01:29:09.399 --> 01:29:14.319
<v Speaker 12>really know, but that's the kind of thing spending resources on.

1512
01:29:14.840 --> 01:29:17.720
<v Speaker 12>Applying for grants is a big, big thing in the

1513
01:29:17.760 --> 01:29:21.760
<v Speaker 12>city of Cincinnati. They apply for a lot of grants federal, state,

1514
01:29:22.239 --> 01:29:25.800
<v Speaker 12>private philanthropic organizations.

1515
01:29:26.680 --> 01:29:30.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, considering you know, time translates to money because of

1516
01:29:30.119 --> 01:29:32.520
<v Speaker 2>salaries and you know people behind the scenes that have

1517
01:29:32.560 --> 01:29:35.239
<v Speaker 2>to fill out paperwork and all that. What have you

1518
01:29:35.239 --> 01:29:37.359
<v Speaker 2>ever done any number crunching on how much time and

1519
01:29:37.479 --> 01:29:40.960
<v Speaker 2>effort goes into let's say, applying for a one hundred

1520
01:29:40.960 --> 01:29:44.840
<v Speaker 2>thousand dollars grant from Bloomberger. Mean, do they spend fifty

1521
01:29:44.880 --> 01:29:47.319
<v Speaker 2>thousand dollars worth of time, effort, and energy applying for

1522
01:29:47.359 --> 01:29:50.079
<v Speaker 2>one hundred thousand dollars grant? Is it something along those lines?

1523
01:29:50.199 --> 01:29:53.479
<v Speaker 12>Well, I do not believe the city has a cost

1524
01:29:53.560 --> 01:29:57.119
<v Speaker 12>accounting system in place where they can tell you how

1525
01:29:57.199 --> 01:30:00.720
<v Speaker 12>much time people are spending on what task. For example,

1526
01:30:00.760 --> 01:30:03.319
<v Speaker 12>on connected communities, they said they were working on that

1527
01:30:03.439 --> 01:30:06.960
<v Speaker 12>for two years. They've got a hundred person not a

1528
01:30:07.079 --> 01:30:11.119
<v Speaker 12>hundred person, yeah, about one hundred person planning staff, all right.

1529
01:30:11.479 --> 01:30:13.000
<v Speaker 2>But paid positions.

1530
01:30:13.279 --> 01:30:18.359
<v Speaker 12>Yes, they spend over a million dollars on planning alone

1531
01:30:19.239 --> 01:30:25.840
<v Speaker 12>in terms of people and resources. So you don't know

1532
01:30:26.359 --> 01:30:29.600
<v Speaker 12>how much time any of these employees are spending on

1533
01:30:29.680 --> 01:30:32.319
<v Speaker 12>any task. But I don't really know how you can

1534
01:30:32.359 --> 01:30:33.159
<v Speaker 12>manage without that.

1535
01:30:33.840 --> 01:30:34.960
<v Speaker 7>So the.

1536
01:30:36.640 --> 01:30:39.560
<v Speaker 12>Point that I don't think people spend a lot of

1537
01:30:39.560 --> 01:30:44.880
<v Speaker 12>time thinking about is in business, it takes money to

1538
01:30:45.000 --> 01:30:48.359
<v Speaker 12>make money, right, We've all heard that absolutely. In government

1539
01:30:48.800 --> 01:30:54.800
<v Speaker 12>it takes money to spend money, and so they it's

1540
01:30:55.239 --> 01:31:01.039
<v Speaker 12>it's a self fulfilling thing. The more government grows, or

1541
01:31:01.039 --> 01:31:03.920
<v Speaker 12>the more they spend, the more the government grows, it

1542
01:31:05.039 --> 01:31:05.840
<v Speaker 12>never ends.

1543
01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:08.239
<v Speaker 2>Right because unlike a business, they just take from the

1544
01:31:08.319 --> 01:31:11.600
<v Speaker 2>taxpayer's labor and in the form of taxes.

1545
01:31:11.720 --> 01:31:13.359
<v Speaker 12>That's right, that's exactly right, and.

1546
01:31:13.880 --> 01:31:17.319
<v Speaker 2>It's not a money making entity. It is big government

1547
01:31:17.359 --> 01:31:22.720
<v Speaker 2>by its nature is designed to I guess, spend where

1548
01:31:22.880 --> 01:31:26.479
<v Speaker 2>the private market wouldn't otherwise spend, because they're spending money

1549
01:31:26.479 --> 01:31:29.920
<v Speaker 2>on nonprofitable things or things that they try to tell

1550
01:31:29.960 --> 01:31:33.760
<v Speaker 2>you will ultimately be profitable because of the economic impact

1551
01:31:33.840 --> 01:31:37.039
<v Speaker 2>of say building a multi billion dollar stadium or something.

1552
01:31:37.239 --> 01:31:40.479
<v Speaker 12>Right. So again, the more they go after these kind

1553
01:31:40.520 --> 01:31:44.239
<v Speaker 12>of funding sources, grants and things like that, the bigger

1554
01:31:44.359 --> 01:31:45.239
<v Speaker 12>the government grows.

1555
01:31:45.920 --> 01:31:48.680
<v Speaker 2>And as if there weren't enough climate change programs out

1556
01:31:48.680 --> 01:31:50.720
<v Speaker 2>in the world that they need to chase down those dollars.

1557
01:31:50.720 --> 01:31:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Will continue with Todd Zenzer, our watchdog collective watchdog over

1558
01:31:55.039 --> 01:31:59.199
<v Speaker 2>local government, after I mentioned affordable imaging services is stuck

1559
01:31:59.199 --> 01:32:03.520
<v Speaker 2>in to my buddy from Covers since yesterday, John Roman,

1560
01:32:04.279 --> 01:32:07.159
<v Speaker 2>about these types of services that are out there in

1561
01:32:07.199 --> 01:32:09.439
<v Speaker 2>the world. When it comes to medical coverage. You know,

1562
01:32:09.479 --> 01:32:11.560
<v Speaker 2>there's you know, some doctors will charge you this, and

1563
01:32:11.600 --> 01:32:16.079
<v Speaker 2>some will charge you some exponentially larger factor for the

1564
01:32:16.119 --> 01:32:19.880
<v Speaker 2>same service. Now, affordable imaging services is designed to get

1565
01:32:19.880 --> 01:32:23.680
<v Speaker 2>you an MRI CT scan, echo cardiogram, ultrasound, lung screening,

1566
01:32:23.760 --> 01:32:28.239
<v Speaker 2>or cardiac scoring for a mere fraction of where your

1567
01:32:28.279 --> 01:32:29.800
<v Speaker 2>doctor's going to tell you to go. And of course

1568
01:32:29.840 --> 01:32:32.279
<v Speaker 2>that's the hospital imaging department. Check out the overhead. When

1569
01:32:32.319 --> 01:32:33.840
<v Speaker 2>you're at a hospital. Take a lot, you know, the

1570
01:32:33.840 --> 01:32:37.000
<v Speaker 2>beautiful fountain, the marble, all of the rooms that are

1571
01:32:37.000 --> 01:32:39.720
<v Speaker 2>empty must still be air conditioned, the maintenance of the

1572
01:32:39.760 --> 01:32:42.720
<v Speaker 2>parking lot, on and on and on. They make the

1573
01:32:42.760 --> 01:32:45.279
<v Speaker 2>profit in places like the imaging center, where a CT

1574
01:32:45.399 --> 01:32:50.880
<v Speaker 2>scan can cost you five thousand dollars. When still profitable

1575
01:32:51.640 --> 01:32:54.760
<v Speaker 2>but very low overhead, Affordable Imaging Services can do a

1576
01:32:54.760 --> 01:32:58.439
<v Speaker 2>CT scan without a contrast for four hundred and fifty dollars.

1577
01:32:58.880 --> 01:33:02.000
<v Speaker 2>You get a contrast, it goes up to six hundred dollars.

1578
01:33:02.119 --> 01:33:06.159
<v Speaker 2>It includes this image, the Board Certified Radiologists report. They

1579
01:33:06.159 --> 01:33:08.279
<v Speaker 2>all do MRIs, the echo cardium. All of them have

1580
01:33:08.359 --> 01:33:11.279
<v Speaker 2>the Board Certified Radiologists report incorporated into the price, and

1581
01:33:11.319 --> 01:33:13.239
<v Speaker 2>both you and your doctor will get that report within

1582
01:33:13.319 --> 01:33:16.680
<v Speaker 2>forty eight hours. I've been to Affordable Imaging Services, I've

1583
01:33:16.680 --> 01:33:19.520
<v Speaker 2>gotten a CT scan there. It is low overhead, but

1584
01:33:19.560 --> 01:33:23.319
<v Speaker 2>it's the same equipment hospitals used run by professionals, just

1585
01:33:23.479 --> 01:33:25.920
<v Speaker 2>like the hospitals. So don't go out of pocket. It's

1586
01:33:25.920 --> 01:33:27.560
<v Speaker 2>a new calendar year. You probably got a new out

1587
01:33:27.600 --> 01:33:30.359
<v Speaker 2>of pocket responsibility before the insurance even kicks in. So

1588
01:33:30.399 --> 01:33:32.760
<v Speaker 2>why write a big fat check when you can get

1589
01:33:32.800 --> 01:33:35.720
<v Speaker 2>an echo cartogram, for example, for four hundred and ninety

1590
01:33:35.760 --> 01:33:38.840
<v Speaker 2>five dollars. Check all the pricing, all the information online

1622
01:35:19.760 --> 01:35:24.199
<v Speaker 2>emergency medical service reports, just a whole host of information

1623
01:35:24.359 --> 01:35:27.079
<v Speaker 2>and statistics about the city. So let's break down the

1624
01:35:27.079 --> 01:35:29.640
<v Speaker 2>information you brought in, Todd, because again this is what

1625
01:35:29.680 --> 01:35:32.560
<v Speaker 2>you brought up at council on Wednesday, right, and your

1626
01:35:32.600 --> 01:35:35.119
<v Speaker 2>your specific point in the comment period was.

1627
01:35:36.199 --> 01:35:38.840
<v Speaker 12>Well, I raised three issues I had. I had sent

1628
01:35:38.920 --> 01:35:42.439
<v Speaker 12>an email to the mayor and the city council members

1629
01:35:42.479 --> 01:35:47.960
<v Speaker 12>and the city manager asking what is going on? I mean,

1630
01:35:48.560 --> 01:35:51.760
<v Speaker 12>why isn't anybody coming out going to the microphones for

1631
01:35:52.399 --> 01:35:55.359
<v Speaker 12>West Price Hill, East Price Hill, Lower Price Hill to

1632
01:35:55.479 --> 01:35:59.520
<v Speaker 12>tell us what's going on with these shootings? And so

1633
01:35:59.600 --> 01:36:01.840
<v Speaker 12>that was number one, why don't we ever hear from

1634
01:36:01.960 --> 01:36:07.079
<v Speaker 12>anybody when an unusual violence like this occurs? Number two,

1635
01:36:07.199 --> 01:36:09.800
<v Speaker 12>I told them that nobody really has confidence in your

1636
01:36:09.840 --> 01:36:13.399
<v Speaker 12>crime data. We're told that crime is going down. In fact,

1637
01:36:13.439 --> 01:36:16.079
<v Speaker 12>I got a response from one member of council, Anna Albie,

1638
01:36:16.680 --> 01:36:18.800
<v Speaker 12>that's the first thing. Well, the first thing she did

1639
01:36:18.880 --> 01:36:22.079
<v Speaker 12>was blame the state legislature for something, and then she

1640
01:36:22.600 --> 01:36:28.359
<v Speaker 12>said that she said that it's getting better, right, it says, well,

1641
01:36:28.399 --> 01:36:32.760
<v Speaker 12>it doesn't feel better. People aren't experiencing that crime is

1642
01:36:32.800 --> 01:36:37.159
<v Speaker 12>going down. They're experiencing that crime is going up. And

1643
01:36:37.199 --> 01:36:42.640
<v Speaker 12>then the third point I made was last year the

1644
01:36:42.720 --> 01:36:46.600
<v Speaker 12>city consolidated two police districts, District three, which covers the

1645
01:36:46.600 --> 01:36:48.920
<v Speaker 12>West Side, in District five, which is like North College

1646
01:36:48.960 --> 01:36:52.520
<v Speaker 12>Hill and Westwood they combine those into one district. Well

1647
01:36:52.560 --> 01:36:57.359
<v Speaker 12>that's almost half the city, it sure is. And I said, well,

1648
01:36:58.279 --> 01:37:00.920
<v Speaker 12>has there been an assessment of that? We ought to

1649
01:37:00.960 --> 01:37:05.159
<v Speaker 12>revisit this whole consolidation thing, because for a police officer

1650
01:37:05.319 --> 01:37:07.319
<v Speaker 12>to speak from one end of the district to the

1651
01:37:07.359 --> 01:37:09.479
<v Speaker 12>other end of the district, I'm going to take if

1652
01:37:09.720 --> 01:37:10.479
<v Speaker 12>forty five.

1653
01:37:10.319 --> 01:37:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Minutes, so giving an opportunity for the perpetrator to sort

1654
01:37:14.720 --> 01:37:19.760
<v Speaker 2>of maybe leave the area perhaps, Yeah, so I thought

1655
01:37:19.800 --> 01:37:22.399
<v Speaker 2>we should revisit that whole consolidation.

1656
01:37:22.560 --> 01:37:27.279
<v Speaker 12>Well, after I was finished with my public comments, I

1657
01:37:27.399 --> 01:37:30.960
<v Speaker 12>did talk to a couple of the council members and

1658
01:37:31.520 --> 01:37:34.960
<v Speaker 12>was told that there is a reassessment or an assessment

1659
01:37:35.159 --> 01:37:39.560
<v Speaker 12>of that consolidation that they're expecting very soon. So that's

1660
01:37:39.600 --> 01:37:42.560
<v Speaker 12>one thing that they're going to do that is in

1661
01:37:42.600 --> 01:37:43.359
<v Speaker 12>the right direction.

1662
01:37:43.840 --> 01:37:46.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, the idea that they're even looking at it, I suppose,

1663
01:37:46.680 --> 01:37:48.600
<v Speaker 2>is the only step in the right direction you can

1664
01:37:48.640 --> 01:37:51.720
<v Speaker 2>point to. That's what they actually conclude or come up

1665
01:37:51.720 --> 01:37:52.760
<v Speaker 2>if by way of assessment.

1666
01:37:52.800 --> 01:37:56.079
<v Speaker 12>We have to wait and see, right, So I did

1667
01:37:56.079 --> 01:37:59.319
<v Speaker 12>wind up speaking to somebody on our community council and

1668
01:38:00.239 --> 01:38:04.600
<v Speaker 12>they related that youth violence is down, But when you

1669
01:38:04.640 --> 01:38:10.640
<v Speaker 12>go to the data reports online, they don't show any

1670
01:38:10.720 --> 01:38:14.640
<v Speaker 12>data concerning youth violence. It doesn't go down to that level.

1671
01:38:15.239 --> 01:38:16.479
<v Speaker 12>So I don't know how they know that.

1672
01:38:17.119 --> 01:38:19.199
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you have to take their word for it

1673
01:38:19.439 --> 01:38:23.720
<v Speaker 2>on that one element of crime. But then the broader

1674
01:38:23.760 --> 01:38:26.319
<v Speaker 2>thing is they can say, well crime's going down, you

1675
01:38:26.399 --> 01:38:30.800
<v Speaker 2>have to actually have a police officer respond and fill

1676
01:38:30.800 --> 01:38:33.239
<v Speaker 2>out a report in order for it to be documented.

1677
01:38:33.279 --> 01:38:34.319
<v Speaker 12>Correct, That's right.

1678
01:38:34.359 --> 01:38:38.279
<v Speaker 2>And my understanding is it given the pathetically low morale

1679
01:38:38.359 --> 01:38:41.520
<v Speaker 2>rate of the police department and the fact that they

1680
01:38:41.560 --> 01:38:45.399
<v Speaker 2>know prosecutors perhaps now under the new administration as well

1681
01:38:45.439 --> 01:38:47.520
<v Speaker 2>as the woke judges aren't really going to do anything

1682
01:38:47.520 --> 01:38:50.039
<v Speaker 2>about it. They have a well screw it kind of

1683
01:38:50.079 --> 01:38:52.439
<v Speaker 2>approach to going after criminals. Right.

1684
01:38:52.600 --> 01:38:55.239
<v Speaker 12>I think that's a I think that's a real issue, Brian.

1685
01:38:55.439 --> 01:38:59.520
<v Speaker 12>And so when I suggested that we conduct an audit

1686
01:38:59.560 --> 01:39:01.800
<v Speaker 12>of the day, that is one of the things you

1687
01:39:01.840 --> 01:39:04.800
<v Speaker 12>would look at is how are we collecting this for example,

1688
01:39:05.159 --> 01:39:10.520
<v Speaker 12>what is a shooting, what constitutes a shooting in their records,

1689
01:39:10.680 --> 01:39:14.840
<v Speaker 12>and how consistent are they and coding the data in

1690
01:39:14.880 --> 01:39:18.720
<v Speaker 12>their system? And I think factors like the ones you

1691
01:39:18.840 --> 01:39:21.560
<v Speaker 12>just brought up with with how the police are actually

1692
01:39:22.039 --> 01:39:24.279
<v Speaker 12>keeping the data for us. Yeah, I think that's a

1693
01:39:24.319 --> 01:39:24.920
<v Speaker 12>real issue.

1694
01:39:25.279 --> 01:39:29.399
<v Speaker 2>Right, So somebody's kids got a gun, fires it, maybe

1695
01:39:29.399 --> 01:39:33.119
<v Speaker 2>hopefully doesn't hit anybody in the cop cruises by. All right, son,

1696
01:39:33.239 --> 01:39:36.760
<v Speaker 2>break it up, move along, you know, and that it's

1697
01:39:36.760 --> 01:39:39.000
<v Speaker 2>a crime. But and I maybe this may be an

1698
01:39:39.039 --> 01:39:43.359
<v Speaker 2>exaggerated sort of scenario, but that's the kind of thing

1699
01:39:43.399 --> 01:39:47.880
<v Speaker 2>that won't result in anything. So youth committing violence, maybe

1700
01:39:47.880 --> 01:39:51.399
<v Speaker 2>committing an act of vandalism or riding a trail bike

1701
01:39:51.439 --> 01:39:54.119
<v Speaker 2>across the public parks or something, if the cops don't

1702
01:39:54.119 --> 01:39:56.960
<v Speaker 2>interact with them, then there's nothing there, even though the

1703
01:39:57.000 --> 01:39:59.439
<v Speaker 2>citizenry is well aware this kind of thing is going

1704
01:39:59.439 --> 01:40:01.119
<v Speaker 2>on because they can and see with their very eyes.

1705
01:40:01.319 --> 01:40:01.800
<v Speaker 12>That's right.

1706
01:40:01.840 --> 01:40:04.199
<v Speaker 2>All right, we'll bring Todd Zenzer back to talk more

1707
01:40:04.199 --> 01:40:06.880
<v Speaker 2>about this crime data seven twenty six. Right now, if

1708
01:40:06.960 --> 01:40:10.680
<v Speaker 2>you by KC Detalk station strong recommendation, and it's one,

1709
01:40:10.680 --> 01:40:12.840
<v Speaker 2>you should certainly take me up on call up USA

1710
01:40:12.840 --> 01:40:15.479
<v Speaker 2>Insulation and get a free inspection and free quote. The

1711
01:40:15.520 --> 01:40:18.640
<v Speaker 2>inspection is for folks who have homes homes older than

1712
01:40:18.680 --> 01:40:20.399
<v Speaker 2>the mid seventies. Because you got a little bit of

1713
01:40:20.399 --> 01:40:22.800
<v Speaker 2>insulation in the exterior walls. Like my daughter's house had

1714
01:40:22.960 --> 01:40:28.640
<v Speaker 2>R twelve late seventies build. That's not enough. With the

1715
01:40:28.760 --> 01:40:31.760
<v Speaker 2>USA's premium foam, it can go along with that old existing,

1716
01:40:31.800 --> 01:40:35.199
<v Speaker 2>deteriorated not even R twelve anymore because of the passage

1717
01:40:35.239 --> 01:40:37.960
<v Speaker 2>of time insulation and give you a far more comfortable

1718
01:40:38.000 --> 01:40:41.560
<v Speaker 2>and of course more energy efficient home. Built before mid seventies,

1719
01:40:41.600 --> 01:40:43.960
<v Speaker 2>you've got nothing in that space in the exterior walls.

1720
01:40:44.039 --> 01:40:45.960
<v Speaker 2>Fill it with the high star value foam in the market,

1721
01:40:46.000 --> 01:40:48.119
<v Speaker 2>which will allow you to achieve a level of insulation,

1722
01:40:49.239 --> 01:40:55.279
<v Speaker 2>sometimes surpassing modern build home insulation. It's that good. You

1723
01:40:55.319 --> 01:40:57.960
<v Speaker 2>will notice the comfort improvement immediately. You will notice the

1724
01:40:58.000 --> 01:41:00.640
<v Speaker 2>savings on your energy bills. It is a product guarantees

1725

1726
01:41:02.760 --> 01:41:05.079

1727
01:41:05.119 --> 01:41:07.800

1728
01:41:07.880 --> 01:41:11.359
<v Speaker 2>the cost of the monthly insulation payment. So take advantage

1729
01:41:11.359 --> 01:41:13.159
<v Speaker 2>of the sale. While at lasts ninety nine dollars a

1760
01:42:38.359 --> 01:42:42.840
<v Speaker 2>here shortly, but let's continue with the crime statistics. And

1761
01:42:43.039 --> 01:42:46.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, obviously reporting is a significant problem. Maybe they'll

1762
01:42:46.079 --> 01:42:49.760
<v Speaker 2>be looking into how things are reported, like to think

1763
01:42:49.800 --> 01:42:52.079
<v Speaker 2>they might do a reshuffle of matters over in the

1764
01:42:52.119 --> 01:42:55.039
<v Speaker 2>Cincinnai Police Department given the low morale. Are we still

1765
01:42:55.039 --> 01:42:56.600
<v Speaker 2>low on police officers time?

1766
01:42:57.079 --> 01:43:00.399
<v Speaker 12>Yes? I think the budget number is about a thousand

1767
01:43:00.640 --> 01:43:03.159
<v Speaker 12>and eighty nine. Is the staffing level they want to

1768
01:43:03.199 --> 01:43:06.079
<v Speaker 12>get to, and I think they're down in the eight

1769
01:43:07.000 --> 01:43:09.760
<v Speaker 12>eight hundred or eight close close to nine hundred level.

1770
01:43:10.840 --> 01:43:15.079
<v Speaker 2>So are are are are they doing recruit classes? Are

1771
01:43:15.159 --> 01:43:17.560
<v Speaker 2>they are they trying to hire and just having difficult

1772
01:43:17.600 --> 01:43:20.680
<v Speaker 2>time getting people to want to become police officers? Or

1773
01:43:21.560 --> 01:43:23.640
<v Speaker 2>is the money there? I guess, you know.

1774
01:43:24.520 --> 01:43:27.079
<v Speaker 12>I do think that they did something about the last

1775
01:43:27.159 --> 01:43:30.279
<v Speaker 12>training class where they postponed it or they did something

1776
01:43:30.359 --> 01:43:33.399
<v Speaker 12>like that, but I'm not really sure what the status

1777
01:43:33.439 --> 01:43:34.119
<v Speaker 12>of all that is.

1778
01:43:34.279 --> 01:43:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, how about I know this idea has been

1779
01:43:37.000 --> 01:43:40.039
<v Speaker 2>floated around and actually experimented on in other cities. How

1780
01:43:40.039 --> 01:43:43.159
<v Speaker 2>about paying people to not commit crime? That that actually

1781
01:43:44.079 --> 01:43:45.560
<v Speaker 2>was something that they talked about.

1782
01:43:45.840 --> 01:43:48.279
<v Speaker 12>Well, they not only talked about it, but they are

1783
01:43:48.319 --> 01:43:52.399
<v Speaker 12>They appropriated two hundred and seventy five thousand dollars to

1784
01:43:52.760 --> 01:43:58.479
<v Speaker 12>I guess contract with a group called it's called Advance Peace,

1785
01:43:59.640 --> 01:44:03.960
<v Speaker 12>and it's an outfit out of San Francisco where they've

1786
01:44:04.000 --> 01:44:07.000
<v Speaker 12>got six or seven cities in San Francisco where they've

1787
01:44:07.000 --> 01:44:11.079
<v Speaker 12>tried this program. And it almost sounds like something that

1788
01:44:11.159 --> 01:44:16.039
<v Speaker 12>your religious institutions would be involved in in the past,

1789
01:44:16.079 --> 01:44:19.079
<v Speaker 12>where they go out and they try to counsel of

1790
01:44:19.560 --> 01:44:23.399
<v Speaker 12>at risk youth and youth involved in violence, and it's

1791
01:44:23.439 --> 01:44:27.439
<v Speaker 12>a it's a mixture of you remember the Scared Straight

1792
01:44:28.159 --> 01:44:31.119
<v Speaker 12>Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, So it's kind of the flip

1793
01:44:31.159 --> 01:44:34.800
<v Speaker 12>of that. Instead of bringing troubled youth or at risk

1794
01:44:34.880 --> 01:44:38.359
<v Speaker 12>youth into a prison to show what it's like, to

1795
01:44:38.439 --> 01:44:41.479
<v Speaker 12>show them what the future could be if they if

1796
01:44:41.479 --> 01:44:45.800
<v Speaker 12>they don't get on the right path, they actually are.

1797
01:44:46.239 --> 01:44:51.439
<v Speaker 12>This program pays a select number of youth to not

1798
01:44:51.479 --> 01:44:56.039
<v Speaker 12>commit crimes and instead turn around and help them reach

1799
01:44:56.079 --> 01:44:57.079
<v Speaker 12>out to the community.

1800
01:44:57.319 --> 01:45:01.000
<v Speaker 2>It just sounds so stupid on so many levels. Yeah, so, okay,

1801
01:45:01.000 --> 01:45:06.079
<v Speaker 2>we're subcontracting this agency, this organization. We retain them for

1802
01:45:06.079 --> 01:45:09.119
<v Speaker 2>a quarter of a million dollars. Then they in turn,

1803
01:45:09.600 --> 01:45:13.159
<v Speaker 2>we'll get money from the city to pay the kids

1804
01:45:13.439 --> 01:45:16.880
<v Speaker 2>not to commit crime. So there's an added ongoing expenditure there.

1805
01:45:17.239 --> 01:45:18.640
<v Speaker 12>That's part of the two seventy five.

1806
01:45:18.760 --> 01:45:24.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, so after this peace organization gets it slice

1807
01:45:24.560 --> 01:45:26.760
<v Speaker 2>that leaves even less money. How many youth can you

1808
01:45:26.800 --> 01:45:29.439
<v Speaker 2>actually reach out to? And how much do you have

1809
01:45:29.520 --> 01:45:32.560
<v Speaker 2>to pay a kid to not commit crime?

1810
01:45:33.239 --> 01:45:35.359
<v Speaker 12>I think it was like one thousand dollars a month

1811
01:45:35.439 --> 01:45:35.640
<v Speaker 12>or so.

1812
01:45:35.680 --> 01:45:42.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow. And they the pro they were working, you know, right,

1813
01:45:43.119 --> 01:45:45.479
<v Speaker 2>I mean just like fast food job or something like that,

1814
01:45:45.560 --> 01:45:47.239
<v Speaker 2>which is where a lot of people start out their

1815
01:45:47.279 --> 01:45:49.439
<v Speaker 2>work career. If they were busy at work, it could

1816
01:45:49.439 --> 01:45:53.479
<v Speaker 2>earn that much money, be contributing to society and not

1817
01:45:53.520 --> 01:45:55.960
<v Speaker 2>have an opportunity to commit crime because they're at work.

1818
01:45:56.039 --> 01:46:01.439
<v Speaker 12>Right, So they're saying the the the similarity to scarage

1819
01:46:01.439 --> 01:46:05.000
<v Speaker 12>straight instead of going into the prison. This program was

1820
01:46:05.039 --> 01:46:10.720
<v Speaker 12>actually started by guys who had been to prison, who

1821
01:46:10.800 --> 01:46:13.600
<v Speaker 12>knew what prison life was like. But they come out

1822
01:46:13.600 --> 01:46:18.479
<v Speaker 12>to the community and engage in counseling and all of

1823
01:46:18.520 --> 01:46:21.159
<v Speaker 12>this outreach to the youth in a neighborhood or in

1824
01:46:21.199 --> 01:46:25.399
<v Speaker 12>a portion of the city. And it's all very ill

1825
01:46:25.399 --> 01:46:27.560
<v Speaker 12>defined at this point as far as I can tell.

1826
01:46:27.760 --> 01:46:30.920
<v Speaker 2>All Right, going back to is there even a police

1827
01:46:31.000 --> 01:46:35.000
<v Speaker 2>report to find a quote unquote troubled youth? Wouldn't that

1828
01:46:35.039 --> 01:46:37.800
<v Speaker 2>suggest that they've already had an interaction with law enforcement

1829
01:46:37.880 --> 01:46:40.279
<v Speaker 2>so you could identify who someone is that's likely to

1830
01:46:40.279 --> 01:46:41.000
<v Speaker 2>commit a crime.

1831
01:46:41.600 --> 01:46:43.880
<v Speaker 12>I do believe that that is part of the program.

1832
01:46:43.960 --> 01:46:48.079
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so first you got to find the troubled youth.

1833
01:46:48.640 --> 01:46:51.079
<v Speaker 2>Then you work out this relationship where you're paying them

1834
01:46:51.119 --> 01:46:53.680
<v Speaker 2>a thousand dollars a month to not commit crime. Now,

1835
01:46:53.840 --> 01:46:56.960
<v Speaker 2>assuming that youth actually got picked up by the police

1836
01:46:57.760 --> 01:47:00.119
<v Speaker 2>for being involved in some sort of criminal activity, do

1837
01:47:00.159 --> 01:47:02.439
<v Speaker 2>they have to disgorge the money that they were paid

1838
01:47:02.560 --> 01:47:04.680
<v Speaker 2>up to that point in time? And how likely is

1839
01:47:04.720 --> 01:47:08.239
<v Speaker 2>it blood from returnative that you would be able to

1840
01:47:08.319 --> 01:47:10.800
<v Speaker 2>get the money back assuming they have that obligation.

1841
01:47:11.199 --> 01:47:14.039
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, I don't think you would look forward to getting

1842
01:47:14.039 --> 01:47:14.880
<v Speaker 12>that money back, Brian.

1843
01:47:16.439 --> 01:47:18.479
<v Speaker 2>That's why I always ask questions. I know the answer

1844
01:47:18.479 --> 01:47:20.800
<v Speaker 2>to you, but before I ask them. Bill pause will

1845
01:47:20.840 --> 01:47:23.279
<v Speaker 2>bring Todds Inzer back up. More things to talk about

1846
01:47:23.319 --> 01:47:28.000
<v Speaker 2>city county wise. After I mentioned Zimmer Heating and air Conditioning,

1847
01:47:28.079 --> 01:47:30.920
<v Speaker 2>yet it's definitely heating season. If you haven't gotten the

1848
01:47:31.479 --> 01:47:33.600
<v Speaker 2>word on that, it's cold outside, and I know your

1849
01:47:33.640 --> 01:47:36.479
<v Speaker 2>system is probably hard at work, but you know if

1850
01:47:36.520 --> 01:47:38.399
<v Speaker 2>it goes belly up, it's nice to know that you

1851
01:47:38.439 --> 01:47:41.439
<v Speaker 2>have Zimmer. And for more than seventy five years, Zimmer

1852

1854
01:47:46.000 --> 01:47:48.399

1855
01:47:48.399 --> 01:47:50.920
<v Speaker 2>at the worst possible time. But if it's time you

1856
01:47:51.039 --> 01:47:55.399
<v Speaker 2>need a new HVAC system, carrier is the one to

1857

<v Speaker 2>go with Zimmer as an authorized carrier dealer and they

1893
01:49:46.079 --> 01:49:48.560
<v Speaker 2>like to call him that anyway. Our sommier friend, Keegan

1894
01:49:48.600 --> 01:49:51.840
<v Speaker 2>good Man. He is why dry January hurts the hospitality

1895
01:49:51.840 --> 01:49:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and retail business. He had a social media post on

1896
01:49:53.960 --> 01:49:56.439
<v Speaker 2>that it caused a bit of a stir, so Keegan

1897
01:49:56.520 --> 01:49:58.439
<v Speaker 2>to join us at eight oh five to talkers, I

1898
01:49:58.439 --> 01:50:00.399
<v Speaker 2>guess too, is abou why we should continue to drink

1899
01:50:00.880 --> 01:50:07.039
<v Speaker 2>in January? The former US Inspector General Todd Zinzer and

1900
01:50:07.039 --> 01:50:10.279
<v Speaker 2>studio going through these crime statistics and before we move

1901
01:50:10.359 --> 01:50:12.439
<v Speaker 2>away maybe from crime, and start talking about getting a

1902
01:50:12.479 --> 01:50:18.760
<v Speaker 2>new arena, the program to pay youth not to commit crimes.

1903
01:50:18.760 --> 01:50:21.119
<v Speaker 2>Do we have any evidence that even works? Is I mean,

1904
01:50:21.159 --> 01:50:22.760
<v Speaker 2>it's preposterous sounding.

1905
01:50:23.720 --> 01:50:28.079
<v Speaker 12>Well, the only thing that I did was went back

1906
01:50:28.119 --> 01:50:32.119
<v Speaker 12>to the there's eleven cities nationwide where this outfit has operated.

1907
01:50:32.479 --> 01:50:35.359
<v Speaker 12>So I went on and did some research on crime

1908
01:50:35.399 --> 01:50:38.640
<v Speaker 12>in each of those cities, and the headlines all look

1909
01:50:38.720 --> 01:50:41.520
<v Speaker 12>the same. It doesn't. You don't see any headlines about

1910
01:50:41.600 --> 01:50:45.399
<v Speaker 12>drastic reductions in youth crime. But in their this outfit

1911
01:50:45.479 --> 01:50:49.119
<v Speaker 12>got a two million dollar grant from the Department US

1912
01:50:49.159 --> 01:50:53.359
<v Speaker 12>Department of Justice in twenty twenty three to fund activities

1913
01:50:53.399 --> 01:50:57.800
<v Speaker 12>and he's eleven cities, and in their grant application they

1914
01:50:57.840 --> 01:51:03.279
<v Speaker 12>claim that they prevented one hundred and thirty four shootings

1915
01:51:04.439 --> 01:51:09.760
<v Speaker 12>or firearm incidents and saving partner cities sixty seven to

1916
01:51:09.800 --> 01:51:12.039
<v Speaker 12>two hundred and sixty eight million dollars.

1917
01:51:12.159 --> 01:51:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Those are sphincter inspired statistics. Todd, there is no way

1918
01:51:17.119 --> 01:51:19.960
<v Speaker 2>in God's green earth you can know that you prevented

1919
01:51:20.039 --> 01:51:23.399
<v Speaker 2>any individual from going out and acquiring and using a firearm.

1920
01:51:23.880 --> 01:51:27.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean, here's your check, young man. Don't commit crimes, okay,

1921
01:51:27.840 --> 01:51:32.399
<v Speaker 2>and so that one kid abides and doesn't commit a crime.

1922
01:51:32.479 --> 01:51:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Is that to suggests that that kid would have actually

1923
01:51:34.880 --> 01:51:36.880
<v Speaker 2>gone out and shot somebody but for the check?

1924
01:51:37.399 --> 01:51:41.399
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, well, I mean that's nonsense. Unfortunately, I don't think

1925
01:51:41.439 --> 01:51:44.520
<v Speaker 12>the Department of Justice went in and verified that information

1926
01:51:44.840 --> 01:51:46.560
<v Speaker 12>before they gave them two million dollars.

1927
01:51:46.680 --> 01:51:49.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, you can't verify information that is pulled out

1928
01:51:49.279 --> 01:51:50.119
<v Speaker 2>of someone's sphincter.

1929
01:51:50.399 --> 01:51:53.119
<v Speaker 12>I eat, Yeah, I don't know how you measure.

1930
01:51:52.840 --> 01:51:59.119
<v Speaker 2>That, Brian. I'm sorry, I just sometimes my brain just

1931
01:51:59.119 --> 01:52:04.680
<v Speaker 2>can't process that epic level of stupidity. Things like this represent. Yeah,

1932
01:52:05.399 --> 01:52:08.680
<v Speaker 2>these are ideas that I guess council has been convinced.

1933
01:52:08.720 --> 01:52:11.359
<v Speaker 2>Is this group come into cities sort of like a

1934
01:52:11.439 --> 01:52:16.159
<v Speaker 2>lobbying group and convince members of these various councils that

1935
01:52:16.239 --> 01:52:17.439
<v Speaker 2>this is the right thing to present.

1936
01:52:17.520 --> 01:52:20.079
<v Speaker 12>Well, I think that's a good question, Brian. But nobody

1937
01:52:20.119 --> 01:52:23.239
<v Speaker 12>on the council. We got nine people on council. One

1938
01:52:23.279 --> 01:52:26.479
<v Speaker 12>person brings this forward and it's like, well, is anybody

1939
01:52:26.479 --> 01:52:29.840
<v Speaker 12>asking any questions about where this outfit came from? How

1940
01:52:29.880 --> 01:52:33.720
<v Speaker 12>we came to know about them. I get the impression

1941
01:52:33.760 --> 01:52:37.960
<v Speaker 12>that you know, they have a network around the country.

1942
01:52:38.079 --> 01:52:42.199
<v Speaker 12>They know that this particular council member is sympathetic to

1943
01:52:42.239 --> 01:52:45.960
<v Speaker 12>the cause, and they approach her and work something out.

1944
01:52:46.000 --> 01:52:49.119
<v Speaker 12>But how it comes to be is a very very

1945
01:52:49.159 --> 01:52:49.760
<v Speaker 12>good question.

1946
01:52:50.039 --> 01:52:53.439
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think everybody's sympathetic to the idea about stopping crime.

1947
01:52:53.840 --> 01:52:58.560
<v Speaker 2>But if you lack logic and reason and critical thinking

1948
01:52:58.600 --> 01:53:01.960
<v Speaker 2>skills and you can be convinced that something like this

1949
01:53:02.000 --> 01:53:04.199
<v Speaker 2>is a good idea, the problem is we don't have

1950
01:53:04.279 --> 01:53:07.640
<v Speaker 2>people intelected capacity that have critical thinking skills and think

1951
01:53:07.680 --> 01:53:11.039
<v Speaker 2>along the lines of hm, let me just test the

1952
01:53:11.039 --> 01:53:14.239
<v Speaker 2>theory with a few questions right now, like where did

1953
01:53:14.239 --> 01:53:17.720
<v Speaker 2>you get that crimes that that didn't happen? Information?

1954
01:53:18.000 --> 01:53:22.640
<v Speaker 12>Right, So, I think there are probably people on council

1955
01:53:22.760 --> 01:53:27.079
<v Speaker 12>that can think like that, but because they don't, it's

1956
01:53:27.119 --> 01:53:29.439
<v Speaker 12>one one for all and all for one on the

1957
01:53:29.479 --> 01:53:32.720
<v Speaker 12>city council. There's very little dispute.

1958
01:53:32.439 --> 01:53:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Which paints them all as idiots. Yeah, I mean I

1959
01:53:36.960 --> 01:53:40.359
<v Speaker 2>would if I'm a Democrat or something and I'm sitting

1960
01:53:40.359 --> 01:53:42.279
<v Speaker 2>in an all Democrat council and someone comes with a

1961
01:53:42.359 --> 01:53:45.119
<v Speaker 2>dumb idea. You know, stupid is as stupid does. Dumb

1962
01:53:45.239 --> 01:53:48.239
<v Speaker 2>is dumb is dumb. You're not taking me down that road.

1963
01:53:48.439 --> 01:53:50.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to be labeled as an idiot. I've

1964
01:53:50.279 --> 01:53:53.359
<v Speaker 2>got a I'm calling a red flag here on behalf

1965
01:53:53.600 --> 01:53:57.199
<v Speaker 2>and in the name of the reputation of our party.

1966
01:53:57.640 --> 01:53:59.760
<v Speaker 2>You know you could be a real patriot by standing

1967
01:53:59.800 --> 01:54:02.720
<v Speaker 2>up stuff like this. Let's stop, Let's talk arena when

1968
01:54:02.720 --> 01:54:04.960
<v Speaker 2>we come back with Todd Zen's er. One more segment

1969
01:54:05.359 --> 01:54:07.640
<v Speaker 2>and a word for my good friends at Chimneycare, Fireplace

1970
01:54:07.680 --> 01:54:10.319
<v Speaker 2>and Stove. Get a carbon monoxide detector. Real life savers

1971
01:54:10.399 --> 01:54:13.600
<v Speaker 2>inexpensive way to save lives and get your dryer event

1972
01:54:13.640 --> 01:54:16.760
<v Speaker 2>cleaned out. Chimneycare, Fireplace and Stove also cleans out dryer events.

1973
01:54:16.800 --> 01:54:18.560
<v Speaker 2>And if you don't remember the last time your dryer

1974
01:54:18.560 --> 01:54:21.880
<v Speaker 2>event got cleaned out, it's taken too long to dry

1975
01:54:21.920 --> 01:54:25.079
<v Speaker 2>your clothes. Clog vent means longer dryer times, that means

1976
01:54:25.159 --> 01:54:27.520
<v Speaker 2>more money out of your pocket. Can also represent a

1977
01:54:27.600 --> 01:54:30.399
<v Speaker 2>fire hazard. You don't want that to happen. So while

1978
01:54:30.399 --> 01:54:33.159
<v Speaker 2>they're out inspecting your chimney, which you should do annually,

1979
01:54:33.279 --> 01:54:35.039
<v Speaker 2>make sure it doesn't need to be swept and there's

1980
01:54:35.039 --> 01:54:37.159
<v Speaker 2>no water damage going on in there. Maybe you need

1981
01:54:37.239 --> 01:54:40.039
<v Speaker 2>tuckpointing cap and damper replacement. Maybe you want to buy

1982

2010
01:56:10.479 --> 01:56:13.479
<v Speaker 2>studio with Todd Zenzer closing out the hour talking about

2011
01:56:13.479 --> 01:56:17.439
<v Speaker 2>city council and city issues generally speaking, and former inspector

2012
01:56:17.479 --> 01:56:20.800
<v Speaker 2>general and watchdog for the collective here in the Hamilton

2013
01:56:20.840 --> 01:56:24.319
<v Speaker 2>County generally speaking, and also can give us an analysis

2014
01:56:24.399 --> 01:56:27.479
<v Speaker 2>on first off, was it first Star arena right fka

2015
01:56:27.640 --> 01:56:31.960
<v Speaker 2>the Coliseum? Yeah, I've seen a gazillion shows there. I

2016
01:56:31.960 --> 01:56:33.960
<v Speaker 2>remember when the since I Stingers were in town. I've

2017
01:56:34.000 --> 01:56:40.000
<v Speaker 2>seen hockey games play there. Not the best venue acoustically speaking,

2018
01:56:41.359 --> 01:56:45.399
<v Speaker 2>But is it has it outlived its useful life? Is

2019
01:56:45.439 --> 01:56:48.319
<v Speaker 2>it's still functional as a venue? Do we need a

2020
01:56:48.399 --> 01:56:51.239
<v Speaker 2>new arena, which is what they're talking about just generally speaking.

2021
01:56:51.800 --> 01:56:55.760
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, So the Regional Chamber of Commerce issue to report

2022
01:56:55.880 --> 01:57:02.520
<v Speaker 12>back in November, and the report was all slanted towards

2023
01:57:03.039 --> 01:57:07.840
<v Speaker 12>needing a new arena. Well, they want to bring in

2024
01:57:08.239 --> 01:57:14.319
<v Speaker 12>bigger names, they want to tie the new convention Center

2025
01:57:14.920 --> 01:57:21.279
<v Speaker 12>to things going on in the arena, and it's it's

2026
01:57:21.399 --> 01:57:28.039
<v Speaker 12>kind of trying to boost Cincinnati to another level of

2027
01:57:28.319 --> 01:57:34.039
<v Speaker 12>entertainment or conventions and things like that, similar to Louisville.

2028
01:57:34.079 --> 01:57:37.600
<v Speaker 12>Louisville has a big arena down there the what is it,

2029
01:57:37.640 --> 01:57:38.439
<v Speaker 12>the Yum Yum or.

2030
01:57:38.520 --> 01:57:42.479
<v Speaker 2>Kfc UH I lose track of rights.

2031
01:57:42.680 --> 01:57:45.520
<v Speaker 12>But they the report that they put together, of the

2032
01:57:45.600 --> 01:57:49.319
<v Speaker 12>study they put together, did identify you know, peer cities

2033
01:57:49.680 --> 01:57:57.000
<v Speaker 12>and the the UH Stadium or Colisseum type venues compared

2034
01:57:57.039 --> 01:58:00.920
<v Speaker 12>to Heritage Center, and it all makes the Heritage Center

2035
01:58:01.000 --> 01:58:05.880
<v Speaker 12>look bad. But what's interesting is that after they issued

2036
01:58:05.880 --> 01:58:10.039
<v Speaker 12>their report, the Heritage Center claimed that the that the

2037
01:58:10.119 --> 01:58:14.600
<v Speaker 12>Chamber commerce data was not correct, that they didn't they

2038
01:58:14.600 --> 01:58:17.840
<v Speaker 12>didn't report the correct data about the number of events

2039
01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:20.560
<v Speaker 12>at the Heritage Center and things like that, and the

2040
01:58:20.600 --> 01:58:23.800
<v Speaker 12>other thing that came to mind when I looked at

2041
01:58:23.800 --> 01:58:28.600
<v Speaker 12>the report, it it was very similar to the Cincinnati

2042
01:58:28.680 --> 01:58:32.920
<v Speaker 12>Futures Commission, which is which was basically dead on arrival

2043
01:58:33.159 --> 01:58:35.119
<v Speaker 12>with the city as far as we know, or it's

2044
01:58:35.159 --> 01:58:40.119
<v Speaker 12>gone underground for now, and it's very notional. It's like,

2045
01:58:40.159 --> 01:58:42.760
<v Speaker 12>if this happens, we could do this, if this law passes,

2046
01:58:42.760 --> 01:58:48.119
<v Speaker 12>we could get this type of funding. And what they

2047
01:58:48.159 --> 01:58:52.880
<v Speaker 12>did is they constructed on paper the type of facility

2048
01:58:53.680 --> 01:58:54.760
<v Speaker 12>that they.

2049
01:58:54.600 --> 01:58:57.119
<v Speaker 2>Wanted, their dream facility.

2050
01:58:57.239 --> 01:59:00.680
<v Speaker 12>Yes, and then they went back to Heritage Center and says, well,

2051
01:59:00.680 --> 01:59:03.840
<v Speaker 12>we can't fit that kind of facility where the Heritage

2052
01:59:03.880 --> 01:59:07.880
<v Speaker 12>Center is currently located. Instead of saying, well, we've got

2053
01:59:07.880 --> 01:59:12.119
<v Speaker 12>this location down on the river, what kind of facility

2054
01:59:12.159 --> 01:59:15.279
<v Speaker 12>can we put there, uh, you know, to get to

2055
01:59:15.319 --> 01:59:17.840
<v Speaker 12>where we want to go, they did. They didn't do that,

2056
01:59:18.439 --> 01:59:22.079
<v Speaker 12>and so that's what yesterday or the day before, the

2057
01:59:22.560 --> 01:59:25.520
<v Speaker 12>group down at the banks, there's actually a group that

2058
01:59:25.880 --> 01:59:30.359
<v Speaker 12>runs the banks, they came out with their own plan

2059
01:59:31.520 --> 01:59:37.279
<v Speaker 12>and they claimed that they could fit a bigger facility

2060
01:59:37.720 --> 01:59:43.640
<v Speaker 12>on that same location right there. Yeah. And the the

2061
01:59:43.720 --> 01:59:49.159
<v Speaker 12>thing is that if you move the colisseum or the

2062
01:59:49.239 --> 01:59:54.279
<v Speaker 12>arena over to the OTR area or wherever Birdie wants

2063
01:59:54.319 --> 01:59:54.760
<v Speaker 12>to put it.

2064
01:59:55.479 --> 01:59:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, there's talk about the west end right yeah, and

2065
01:59:58.840 --> 02:00:00.840
<v Speaker 2>then that would be the way. So that would also

2066
02:00:00.920 --> 02:00:04.399
<v Speaker 2>includes maybe the area around the new Convention Center. And

2067
02:00:04.439 --> 02:00:07.800
<v Speaker 2>then there's over the Rhine as a possibility where they

2068
02:00:07.880 --> 02:00:09.800
<v Speaker 2>going to put it next to the hard Rockets.

2069
02:00:10.359 --> 02:00:13.640
<v Speaker 12>I think that, yeah, there's a there's a location up

2070
02:00:13.880 --> 02:00:18.600
<v Speaker 12>near Hard Figure, but you know that the powers of

2071
02:00:18.640 --> 02:00:23.840
<v Speaker 12>b want to put it over there next to what

2072
02:00:24.000 --> 02:00:29.880
<v Speaker 12>is tqute, yeah, the soccer venue. Yeah, but if they

2073
02:00:30.279 --> 02:00:34.560
<v Speaker 12>leave the banks, if the arena leaves the banks, that's

2074
02:00:34.560 --> 02:00:38.960
<v Speaker 12>going to impact the businesses located at the banks. Were

2075
02:00:39.039 --> 02:00:43.319
<v Speaker 12>kind of we've spent all these resources developing that area,

2076
02:00:44.520 --> 02:00:47.520
<v Speaker 12>and now we're going to take one of the venues

2077
02:00:48.079 --> 02:00:51.239
<v Speaker 12>that we built up there and do away with it.

2078
02:00:51.800 --> 02:00:55.039
<v Speaker 12>And so the business community at the banks came out

2079
02:00:55.079 --> 02:00:59.359
<v Speaker 12>the other day and they have they have an alternative proposal.

2080
02:00:59.760 --> 02:01:04.479
<v Speaker 12>In the mayor he's kind of swaying. He originally said

2081
02:01:04.520 --> 02:01:07.720
<v Speaker 12>we didn't need a new arena. Then he said that, well,

2082
02:01:08.520 --> 02:01:12.039
<v Speaker 12>I could be persuaded otherwise, And now he's saying, well,

2083
02:01:12.279 --> 02:01:14.359
<v Speaker 12>I have to figure out how we would pay for it,

2084
02:01:14.439 --> 02:01:14.720
<v Speaker 12>all right.

2085
02:01:14.760 --> 02:01:16.720
<v Speaker 2>I was waiting for that because that was gonna be

2086
02:01:16.720 --> 02:01:19.760
<v Speaker 2>my next question. Whether it's there over on the West

2087
02:01:19.920 --> 02:01:23.199
<v Speaker 2>End or any place else in the Cincinnati area, pick

2088
02:01:23.239 --> 02:01:26.720
<v Speaker 2>a spot, anywhere is there money to build it.

2089
02:01:28.600 --> 02:01:31.479
<v Speaker 12>No, they'd have to borrow it, or they'd have to

2090
02:01:32.039 --> 02:01:33.760
<v Speaker 12>somehow get the money from somewhere.

2091
02:01:33.840 --> 02:01:37.039
<v Speaker 2>But I would interfere with the second leg of the streetcar. Todd.

2092
02:01:37.479 --> 02:01:41.000
<v Speaker 12>Well, I'm sure streetcar funding isn't there somewhere.

2093
02:01:41.720 --> 02:01:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Todd sensor. You know, it's humorous, it's comical, but this

2094
02:01:44.960 --> 02:01:47.199
<v Speaker 2>is real stuff, and it's going on right now by

2095
02:01:47.239 --> 02:01:50.680
<v Speaker 2>our elected officials, and it just it just leads me

2096
02:01:50.720 --> 02:01:55.279
<v Speaker 2>to wonder whether they really have a handle on how

2097
02:01:55.319 --> 02:01:58.479
<v Speaker 2>to run government, because you know, I know every one

2098
02:01:58.520 --> 02:02:02.119
<v Speaker 2>of my listeners can say their favorite road that has

2099
02:02:02.159 --> 02:02:05.560
<v Speaker 2>not been paved or repaired in years. I always joke

2100
02:02:05.600 --> 02:02:08.560
<v Speaker 2>about Sunset. That thing has been a nightmarish, you know,

2101
02:02:08.680 --> 02:02:14.359
<v Speaker 2>import from some war zone for fifteen years or so,

2102
02:02:14.880 --> 02:02:17.159
<v Speaker 2>and it has been fixed. And every year the number

2103
02:02:17.159 --> 02:02:20.680
<v Speaker 2>of roads that have gone unrepaired gets longer and longer

2104
02:02:20.720 --> 02:02:23.039
<v Speaker 2>and longer. I mean, you got to take care of

2105
02:02:23.079 --> 02:02:25.439
<v Speaker 2>the stuff you've got before you start trying to buy

2106
02:02:25.520 --> 02:02:27.600
<v Speaker 2>new stuff and things. And no one seems to care

2107
02:02:27.640 --> 02:02:29.880
<v Speaker 2>a wit about what we've got. Going back to like

2108
02:02:29.920 --> 02:02:33.199
<v Speaker 2>the broken windows theory, it's all broken out there. Let's

2109
02:02:33.199 --> 02:02:36.279
<v Speaker 2>start repairing some windows. Todd's in there, thank you for

2110
02:02:36.279 --> 02:02:39.640
<v Speaker 2>being the watchdog on behalf of the Hamilton County voters

2111
02:02:39.680 --> 02:02:42.399
<v Speaker 2>and the residents of the City of Cincinnati, and of

2112
02:02:42.439 --> 02:02:45.279
<v Speaker 2>course outside observers who might want to learn from the

2113
02:02:45.319 --> 02:02:47.680
<v Speaker 2>mistakes that we've made so they don't do it themselves.

2114
02:02:48.399 --> 02:02:50.359
<v Speaker 2>Happy New Year to you, my friend. I look forward

2118

2121
02:03:05.039 --> 02:03:08.119
<v Speaker 2>why dry January is bad for the hospitality and retail business.

<v Speaker 2>Plus reject Rebecca Serandov's going to the door for other

2125
02:03:16.399 --> 02:03:19.479
<v Speaker 2>long time to pass. We'll recap that journey with Rebecca

2126

2147
02:04:24.640 --> 02:04:26.760
<v Speaker 2>the right direction. Welcome back to the fifty five Cadsey

2148
02:04:26.800 --> 02:04:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Morning Show, my dear friend Keegan Corker, and it's always

2149
02:04:28.880 --> 02:04:29.760
<v Speaker 2>great having y a man.

2150
02:04:31.199 --> 02:04:32.720
<v Speaker 7>Hey, Brian, how are you.

2151
02:04:32.439 --> 02:04:35.600
<v Speaker 2>Doing pretty well? Happy New Year to you? Yeah, thank

2152
02:04:35.680 --> 02:04:36.079
<v Speaker 2>you you too.

2153
02:04:36.199 --> 02:04:36.359
<v Speaker 7>Man.

2154
02:04:36.439 --> 02:04:37.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm first off.

2155
02:04:37.640 --> 02:04:39.239
<v Speaker 4>Apologies of my voice because I'm.

2156
02:04:39.760 --> 02:04:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Fighting a seasonal thing going on.

2157
02:04:42.000 --> 02:04:44.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, you need to drink a little bit more in January,

2158
02:04:45.680 --> 02:04:48.560
<v Speaker 2>which is the point having Keegan on. Normally he's in

2159
02:04:48.680 --> 02:04:52.159
<v Speaker 2>studio and we we don't sample wines because you can't

2160
02:04:52.159 --> 02:04:53.680
<v Speaker 2>do that, but we talk about him. He gives us

2161
02:04:53.680 --> 02:04:56.079
<v Speaker 2>great wine recommendations at the right times a year, and

2162
02:04:56.119 --> 02:04:58.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, Thanksgiving and Christmas and the like. And we'll

2163
02:04:58.520 --> 02:05:01.760
<v Speaker 2>continue to do that with Keegan. But notably, and I

2164
02:05:01.800 --> 02:05:04.359
<v Speaker 2>had never heard of this, but apparently there's something out

2165
02:05:04.399 --> 02:05:08.600
<v Speaker 2>there in the world called dry January. It's analogous to lent.

2166
02:05:08.880 --> 02:05:11.520
<v Speaker 2>I suppose you give up drinking during the entire month

2167
02:05:11.520 --> 02:05:15.720
<v Speaker 2>of January and you made a public service announcement on

2168
02:05:15.800 --> 02:05:19.079
<v Speaker 2>your Facebook page the other day. Dry January hurts hospitality,

2169
02:05:19.119 --> 02:05:24.319
<v Speaker 2>slash retail and does nothing long term important emphasis for

2170
02:05:24.439 --> 02:05:27.199
<v Speaker 2>your health. Take one week and a month off instead.

2171
02:05:28.399 --> 02:05:30.439
<v Speaker 2>You got a lot of comments in response to that,

2172
02:05:30.520 --> 02:05:33.319
<v Speaker 2>and many of them are not pleasant. You didn't expect

2173
02:05:33.560 --> 02:05:35.479
<v Speaker 2>expect that, did you.

2174
02:05:35.479 --> 02:05:35.680
<v Speaker 12>No?

2175
02:05:35.880 --> 02:05:41.920
<v Speaker 4>It led off a firestorm apparently. And you know what's

2176
02:05:41.960 --> 02:05:44.279
<v Speaker 4>funny is that, like a lot of people I think

2177
02:05:44.359 --> 02:05:48.439
<v Speaker 4>that responded to that negatively were interpreting that as some

2178
02:05:48.560 --> 02:05:52.920
<v Speaker 4>kind of personal attack and or some kind of indictment

2179
02:05:53.039 --> 02:05:57.159
<v Speaker 4>on them participating in dry January or going sober, which

2180
02:05:57.720 --> 02:06:01.119
<v Speaker 4>I have done many stints of variety over my over

2181
02:06:01.159 --> 02:06:04.600
<v Speaker 4>my life for you know, personal or physical reasons or whatever,

2182
02:06:04.640 --> 02:06:07.199
<v Speaker 4>you know, trying to drop some weight, especially around the holidays.

2183
02:06:07.239 --> 02:06:08.079
<v Speaker 4>I understand it.

2184
02:06:08.720 --> 02:06:08.880
<v Speaker 7>Uh.

2185
02:06:09.159 --> 02:06:11.800
<v Speaker 4>My My point was though, is that you know, when

2186
02:06:11.960 --> 02:06:14.920
<v Speaker 4>restaurants and bars especially, you know, still a lot of

2187
02:06:14.920 --> 02:06:18.960
<v Speaker 4>them still reeling from the post COVID effects. And then also, uh,

2188
02:06:19.000 --> 02:06:20.760
<v Speaker 4>you know, I mean we see articles that feel like

2189
02:06:20.800 --> 02:06:23.720
<v Speaker 4>every single day of new restaurants and bars closing left

2190
02:06:23.720 --> 02:06:24.079
<v Speaker 4>and right.

2191
02:06:24.960 --> 02:06:26.399
<v Speaker 2>So this is.

2192
02:06:26.520 --> 02:06:30.800
<v Speaker 4>Historically a very difficult time for restaurants and bars post holidays.

2193
02:06:31.319 --> 02:06:33.960
<v Speaker 4>It's usually the slower period, the weather is usually you know,

2194
02:06:34.479 --> 02:06:37.359
<v Speaker 4>I mean, shoot, Cincinnati, look outside, We've got you know,

2195
02:06:37.800 --> 02:06:39.840
<v Speaker 4>a foot of snow still on the ground. So it's

2196
02:06:40.159 --> 02:06:43.199
<v Speaker 4>it's it definitely has an impact on those hospitality and

2197
02:06:43.239 --> 02:06:47.720
<v Speaker 4>industry workers, and it's it's just kind of a funny thing.

2198
02:06:47.760 --> 02:06:52.079
<v Speaker 4>And and and so my my point was, listen, you know,

2199
02:06:52.159 --> 02:06:56.000
<v Speaker 4>you could take one weekend off every month, so that's

2200
02:06:56.640 --> 02:07:00.600
<v Speaker 4>per year, and that gives you twelve different weekends. Just

2201
02:07:00.680 --> 02:07:04.840
<v Speaker 4>my pure arithmetic, you got a better and more sustainable

2202
02:07:05.079 --> 02:07:08.319
<v Speaker 4>lifestyle change that's healthier for you, it's better for your pocketbook.

2203
02:07:09.159 --> 02:07:11.800
<v Speaker 4>But I don't think a lot of people really bother

2204
02:07:11.920 --> 02:07:12.760
<v Speaker 4>to do the math on that.

2205
02:07:12.840 --> 02:07:13.239
<v Speaker 12>And then.

2206
02:07:15.199 --> 02:07:17.039
<v Speaker 4>You know, it's funny as I had a bunch of

2207
02:07:17.039 --> 02:07:21.319
<v Speaker 4>people send me private messages off off uh, you know,

2208
02:07:21.399 --> 02:07:24.760
<v Speaker 4>off off the actual thread and and and you know,

2209
02:07:24.880 --> 02:07:27.800
<v Speaker 4>express their like, hey, what why is everybody so angry

2210
02:07:27.880 --> 02:07:28.159
<v Speaker 4>at this?

2211
02:07:28.319 --> 02:07:29.399
<v Speaker 12>Is like, I have no idea.

2212
02:07:30.079 --> 02:07:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't understand it either, And I mean some

2213
02:07:32.600 --> 02:07:36.920
<v Speaker 2>people call it insulting. I mean, obviously comments from folks

2214
02:07:36.920 --> 02:07:39.760
<v Speaker 2>who did it, alcoholics and have been on the wagon

2215
02:07:39.840 --> 02:07:41.760
<v Speaker 2>for any given period of time say well, you got

2216
02:07:41.760 --> 02:07:43.479
<v Speaker 2>to love people, try and do it a chance and

2217
02:07:43.520 --> 02:07:46.079
<v Speaker 2>be good to maybe his initial stepping stone to consider

2218
02:07:46.119 --> 02:07:50.159
<v Speaker 2>not drinking at all. But I guess why pile up

2219
02:07:50.199 --> 02:07:52.680
<v Speaker 2>in one month? As you point out, you know, and

2220
02:07:52.680 --> 02:07:57.359
<v Speaker 2>and and and and and I guess why January? It

2221
02:07:57.439 --> 02:08:00.640
<v Speaker 2>makes perfect sense that post holidays at the bars and

2222
02:08:00.720 --> 02:08:03.800
<v Speaker 2>restaurants would be doing less business. Everybody's been partying it

2223
02:08:03.840 --> 02:08:07.159
<v Speaker 2>up since Thanksgiving and so obviously people may be less

2224
02:08:07.159 --> 02:08:09.520
<v Speaker 2>inclined to go out again. The winter weather alone might

2225
02:08:09.600 --> 02:08:12.880
<v Speaker 2>keep people away, But why January, why not you know,

2226
02:08:13.800 --> 02:08:15.000
<v Speaker 2>June or something.

2227
02:08:16.760 --> 02:08:19.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm not sure. I think a lot of it

2228
02:08:19.560 --> 02:08:22.640
<v Speaker 4>has to do with you know, maybe it's everybody indulges

2229
02:08:22.640 --> 02:08:24.800
<v Speaker 4>a little too much over the holidays and they want

2230
02:08:24.800 --> 02:08:27.199
<v Speaker 4>to try to give their their bodies a little reset.

2231
02:08:27.680 --> 02:08:31.600
<v Speaker 4>And again I'm empathetic with that. I understand that. I

2232
02:08:32.760 --> 02:08:37.399
<v Speaker 4>totally understand people going after But my whole argument was heay, like,

2233
02:08:37.680 --> 02:08:41.439
<v Speaker 4>let's let's not just dedicate an entire months of the year.

2234
02:08:41.560 --> 02:08:44.439
<v Speaker 4>It's particularly the slowest time of the year for bars

2235
02:08:44.479 --> 02:08:45.960
<v Speaker 4>and restaurants to.

2236
02:08:46.279 --> 02:08:48.560
<v Speaker 7>Do this, and not an indictment.

2237
02:08:48.840 --> 02:08:51.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, exactly, And it's not an indictment on anybody's you know,

2238
02:08:51.680 --> 02:08:53.880
<v Speaker 4>attempt to get sober or anything like that. If you

2239
02:08:53.880 --> 02:08:56.359
<v Speaker 4>want to make good choices for yourself, and if you

2240
02:08:56.359 --> 02:08:59.640
<v Speaker 4>have a bad relationship with alcohol, for example, it's probably

2241
02:08:59.640 --> 02:09:02.560
<v Speaker 4>not good idea for you to indulge at all, let alone,

2242
02:09:02.760 --> 02:09:04.560
<v Speaker 4>you know, just the one month out of the year.

2243
02:09:04.560 --> 02:09:06.640
<v Speaker 4>But then the other thing is is that just like

2244
02:09:06.880 --> 02:09:09.960
<v Speaker 4>most resolutions, it's it tends to be something that people

2245
02:09:09.960 --> 02:09:14.600
<v Speaker 4>don't stick around with. So it's it's to me, it

2246
02:09:14.680 --> 02:09:17.880
<v Speaker 4>kind of seems like a feudal effort that hurts an industry. Now,

2247
02:09:19.000 --> 02:09:23.399
<v Speaker 4>the the afteris all this is I am well aware of,

2248
02:09:23.960 --> 02:09:27.239
<v Speaker 4>you know, people maybe raising an eyebrow. It's like, oh, hey, uh,

2249
02:09:27.560 --> 02:09:29.920
<v Speaker 4>you know, you got a guy that sells alcohol that's telling.

2250
02:09:29.760 --> 02:09:31.119
<v Speaker 7>Us to keep buying alcohol.

2251
02:09:31.399 --> 02:09:35.239
<v Speaker 4>Isn't that Isn't that coincidence? And and I would say,

2252
02:09:35.279 --> 02:09:37.560
<v Speaker 4>you know what, my counter to that is, Brian, don't

2253
02:09:37.560 --> 02:09:39.079
<v Speaker 4>buy my wines in January?

2254
02:09:39.359 --> 02:09:41.960
<v Speaker 7>How about that? I don't, I don't care.

2255
02:09:42.039 --> 02:09:46.359
<v Speaker 4>This is this is a this is a larger statement

2256
02:09:46.399 --> 02:09:48.800
<v Speaker 4>that I think I would like to make on behalf

2257
02:09:48.840 --> 02:09:50.840
<v Speaker 4>of the service industry, which you all know.

2258
02:09:50.960 --> 02:09:53.000
<v Speaker 7>I I spent all.

2259
02:09:53.039 --> 02:09:57.279
<v Speaker 4>My entire adult life in Jeff Rubi's and worked with

2260
02:09:57.359 --> 02:10:01.279
<v Speaker 4>them and h and many other restaurants that I've worked with,

2261
02:10:01.359 --> 02:10:05.079
<v Speaker 4>and so the hostility and bar restaurant industry is near

2262
02:10:05.119 --> 02:10:06.880
<v Speaker 4>and dear to my heart, and I've I've witnessed and

2263
02:10:07.159 --> 02:10:10.520
<v Speaker 4>felt personally the impacts of that over the years. And yeah,

2264
02:10:10.600 --> 02:10:14.079
<v Speaker 4>it's just one man's uh, one one man's personal mission.

2265
02:10:14.560 --> 02:10:17.319
<v Speaker 2>I think that is important point to emphasize that you're

2266
02:10:17.800 --> 02:10:21.319
<v Speaker 2>you're not just a wholesale wine distributor now you are now,

2267
02:10:21.399 --> 02:10:26.600
<v Speaker 2>but you have such a familiar relationship with hospitality industry. Again,

2268
02:10:26.840 --> 02:10:30.920
<v Speaker 2>you're the sammier for Jeff Ruby's restaurants plural so for

2269
02:10:30.960 --> 02:10:33.920
<v Speaker 2>a very long time. So you actually saw all this

2270
02:10:34.079 --> 02:10:38.439
<v Speaker 2>real time. You understand the realities that the restaurants face

2271
02:10:38.680 --> 02:10:41.960
<v Speaker 2>at in the month of January. And of course, I guess,

2272
02:10:42.319 --> 02:10:47.600
<v Speaker 2>is this dry January a growing phenomenon that actually enough

2273
02:10:47.600 --> 02:10:49.800
<v Speaker 2>people are doing it that it could have an impact.

2274
02:10:49.800 --> 02:10:51.239
<v Speaker 2>You're trying to nip it in the bud before it

2275
02:10:51.279 --> 02:10:54.640
<v Speaker 2>becomes something bigger. What's what's your what's your take on

2276
02:10:54.680 --> 02:10:55.279
<v Speaker 2>that part of it?

2277
02:10:55.359 --> 02:10:55.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

2278
02:10:55.640 --> 02:10:59.199
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, I mean, I mean there's there Unfortunately, isn't

2279
02:10:59.199 --> 02:11:02.720
<v Speaker 4>too much data. There is some data that you know,

2280
02:11:02.920 --> 02:11:06.439
<v Speaker 4>I've seen over the years that a lot of bars

2281
02:11:06.439 --> 02:11:11.800
<v Speaker 4>and restaurants and even different different wineries and breweries have

2282
02:11:11.920 --> 02:11:16.640
<v Speaker 4>put out. The estimates range from ten to twenty percent

2283
02:11:16.720 --> 02:11:20.000
<v Speaker 4>of impact on alcohol sales for bars and restaurants in

2284
02:11:20.079 --> 02:11:24.239
<v Speaker 4>January alone. And that's that's not insignificant, particularly when you're

2285
02:11:24.279 --> 02:11:30.359
<v Speaker 4>dealing with excuse me, especially when you're dealing with already

2286
02:11:30.439 --> 02:11:34.000
<v Speaker 4>razors sin profit margins. These bars and restaurants operate often,

2287
02:11:34.520 --> 02:11:36.840
<v Speaker 4>so it's it's it's not it's not just you know,

2288
02:11:37.199 --> 02:11:40.239
<v Speaker 4>a drop in the bucket. And then and the counter

2289
02:11:40.319 --> 02:11:43.680
<v Speaker 4>of course too, there's a lot of people that say,

2290
02:11:43.760 --> 02:11:47.119
<v Speaker 4>you know, well, what about NA beverages and and low

2291
02:11:47.199 --> 02:11:49.680
<v Speaker 4>and no spirits and whatnot, which are starting to gain

2292
02:11:49.720 --> 02:11:55.319
<v Speaker 4>in popularity, and the cocktail. Yes, but this is this

2293
02:11:55.359 --> 02:11:58.359
<v Speaker 4>is one man's opinion. But I have yet to encounter

2294
02:11:58.439 --> 02:12:02.239
<v Speaker 4>one that tastes decent. And when you talk about d

2295
02:12:02.399 --> 02:12:06.399
<v Speaker 4>out wine or d out beer, you know.

2296
02:12:06.560 --> 02:12:07.439
<v Speaker 1>Again, I.

2297
02:12:09.079 --> 02:12:12.880
<v Speaker 4>Want to find one that actually is palatable in one

2298
02:12:13.000 --> 02:12:13.960
<v Speaker 4>humble fumily in his.

2299
02:12:13.920 --> 02:12:17.600
<v Speaker 2>Opinion, and I get that. I actually I quit drinking

2300
02:12:17.640 --> 02:12:19.960
<v Speaker 2>for I think it was seven solid years. Just woke

2301
02:12:20.039 --> 02:12:22.520
<v Speaker 2>up one day and said, you know what, I'm not

2302
02:12:22.520 --> 02:12:25.119
<v Speaker 2>gonna do that anymore. We did a lot of entertaining

2303
02:12:25.119 --> 02:12:27.119
<v Speaker 2>when I was a practice of law in Chicago, and

2304
02:12:27.159 --> 02:12:29.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, I brought the bad habits back with me,

2305
02:12:29.119 --> 02:12:31.159
<v Speaker 2>and I just thought, you know what, I have no

2306
02:12:31.279 --> 02:12:34.479
<v Speaker 2>reason to continue at this level. And so just sort

2307
02:12:34.520 --> 02:12:36.520
<v Speaker 2>of woke up one day and went down that road.

2308
02:12:36.520 --> 02:12:38.720
<v Speaker 2>So I tried a whole bunch of non alcoholic beers

2309
02:12:38.720 --> 02:12:40.720
<v Speaker 2>over the time, and I don't think a single one

2310
02:12:41.079 --> 02:12:43.760
<v Speaker 2>was what I would consider palatable. So I share your

2311
02:12:44.119 --> 02:12:47.560
<v Speaker 2>your conclusions in that regard, but I don't regret, you know,

2312
02:12:47.720 --> 02:12:50.960
<v Speaker 2>drinking now at all. I thoroughly enjoy a cocktail and

2313
02:12:51.359 --> 02:12:54.800
<v Speaker 2>I find nothing wrong with it. And like everybody says,

2314
02:12:54.800 --> 02:12:57.560
<v Speaker 2>everything in moderation, it's something that allows you a certain

2315
02:12:57.640 --> 02:13:01.199
<v Speaker 2>level of enjoyment in life. Be bad for you on

2316
02:13:01.239 --> 02:13:03.560
<v Speaker 2>some level, but you know what, I'd rather live life

2317
02:13:03.600 --> 02:13:06.760
<v Speaker 2>in a happy, positive way and enjoy a couple of

2318
02:13:06.800 --> 02:13:09.840
<v Speaker 2>bad things, and that's just what makes life worth living.

2319
02:13:09.880 --> 02:13:12.520
<v Speaker 2>You take everything out that's bad for you, but you

2320
02:13:12.600 --> 02:13:16.000
<v Speaker 2>have left. You know. You can't smoke anymore, you can't

2321
02:13:16.079 --> 02:13:18.880
<v Speaker 2>drink anymore. Everything's carcinogenic. You aren't supposed to have any

2322
02:13:18.920 --> 02:13:22.000
<v Speaker 2>more processed foods. Everybody here, here's your bowl of quinoa

2323
02:13:22.279 --> 02:13:25.680
<v Speaker 2>and your salad, and that's all you get. I just,

2324
02:13:26.039 --> 02:13:28.479
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's a certain loss of enjoyment of life

2325
02:13:28.520 --> 02:13:30.640
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to things like that. Well, I just

2326
02:13:30.760 --> 02:13:33.239
<v Speaker 2>it's you know, the other component of the broader component,

2327
02:13:33.399 --> 02:13:37.119
<v Speaker 2>is that a simple what I would call innocuous opinion

2328
02:13:37.399 --> 02:13:41.479
<v Speaker 2>like that garnered so much not none of it's really

2329
02:13:41.560 --> 02:13:46.840
<v Speaker 2>angry or vile, but just so many just reactions along

2330
02:13:46.920 --> 02:13:48.840
<v Speaker 2>the lines of what you got it's just a really

2331
02:13:48.840 --> 02:13:50.640
<v Speaker 2>interesting phenomenon in and of itself.

2332
02:13:51.760 --> 02:13:56.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and again, you know, the the argument was for

2333
02:13:57.520 --> 02:14:00.720
<v Speaker 4>moderation and for you know, just general can control because

2334
02:14:01.399 --> 02:14:05.279
<v Speaker 4>uh and and perhaps you know, maybe I could have

2335
02:14:05.319 --> 02:14:07.640
<v Speaker 4>worshiped it differently. I don't know, but I thought it

2336
02:14:07.680 --> 02:14:12.199
<v Speaker 4>was pretty plain speakly or pretty plain speaking. But you know,

2337
02:14:13.560 --> 02:14:16.439
<v Speaker 4>moderation is the better choice if if you want to

2338
02:14:16.479 --> 02:14:19.560
<v Speaker 4>have a better relationship with alcohol, assuming that someone may have,

2339
02:14:20.600 --> 02:14:23.399
<v Speaker 4>If there is someone that is struggling with alcohol, certainly

2340
02:14:23.479 --> 02:14:26.359
<v Speaker 4>go get help. Certainly you know, take a step back

2341
02:14:26.399 --> 02:14:29.000
<v Speaker 4>and whatnot. But for the vast majority of the people

2342
02:14:29.000 --> 02:14:33.840
<v Speaker 4>that are participating in dry January, it's you know, it's

2343
02:14:33.920 --> 02:14:36.880
<v Speaker 4>it's it's not with the intent of creating lasting change.

2344
02:14:37.279 --> 02:14:38.920
<v Speaker 4>And I think that that, I mean, if we want

2345
02:14:38.960 --> 02:14:42.720
<v Speaker 4>to talk on a much more broader, esoteric level, Uh,

2346
02:14:43.079 --> 02:14:46.600
<v Speaker 4>it's it's. Uh, it's kind of an issue that I

2347
02:14:46.640 --> 02:14:49.239
<v Speaker 4>think a lot of people in this world today struggle with,

2348
02:14:49.359 --> 02:14:53.239
<v Speaker 4>is creating lasting change, creating you know, habits that are

2349
02:14:53.399 --> 02:14:59.359
<v Speaker 4>are are not only forthright, but also you know, just

2350
02:14:59.520 --> 02:15:03.760
<v Speaker 4>beneficial for themselves and for uh, you know, their community

2351
02:15:03.840 --> 02:15:07.239
<v Speaker 4>surrounding them. It's yeah, it's it's it's something that you

2352
02:15:08.640 --> 02:15:10.279
<v Speaker 4>I guess, Uh, well.

2353
02:15:10.600 --> 02:15:13.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I get where you're coming from.

2354
02:15:13.640 --> 02:15:15.119
<v Speaker 7>You get what I'm saying. You get what I'm saying.

2355
02:15:15.119 --> 02:15:17.039
<v Speaker 2>I do, and I know my listening audience does too.

2356
02:15:17.199 --> 02:15:20.239
<v Speaker 2>But ultimately, don't pile up on the restaurant industry. They're

2357
02:15:20.239 --> 02:15:22.439
<v Speaker 2>beating up and battered enough. Fewer people are going out

2358
02:15:22.439 --> 02:15:25.239
<v Speaker 2>and there's there's less disposable income out there. But keep

2359
02:15:25.239 --> 02:15:27.439
<v Speaker 2>in mind your local you know, family on an operator,

2360
02:15:27.479 --> 02:15:30.960
<v Speaker 2>restaurant tours and the like, and support them and don't

2361
02:15:30.960 --> 02:15:32.560
<v Speaker 2>make things worse for me in the month of January.

2362
02:15:32.600 --> 02:15:34.920
<v Speaker 2>They're already struggling on coming off the holidays. I think

2363
02:15:34.960 --> 02:15:37.199
<v Speaker 2>we can leave it at that, Keegan Corcoran, you are

2364
02:15:37.239 --> 02:15:39.520
<v Speaker 2>always welcome on the fifty five KRC Morning Show. And

2365
02:15:39.760 --> 02:15:42.680
<v Speaker 2>next time in studio, maybe we can pretend to drink

2366
02:15:42.720 --> 02:15:43.760
<v Speaker 2>wine as we always do.

2367
02:15:44.880 --> 02:15:47.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and maybe next time I will sound like RFK

2368
02:15:47.279 --> 02:15:47.880
<v Speaker 4>Junior or something.

2369
02:15:47.960 --> 02:15:51.720
<v Speaker 2>You know. There you go, appreciate the clothes and comments, Keig,

2370
02:15:51.800 --> 02:15:53.640
<v Speaker 2>and happy New Year to you and your beautiful wife.

2371
02:15:53.680 --> 02:15:57.039
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk soon. It's eight eighteen fifty five k SE

2372
02:15:57.119 --> 02:16:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Detalk station. The Honda CRV is in the shop right now.

2373
02:16:01.760 --> 02:16:03.840
<v Speaker 2>Jerry's car. Now give it to my son for Christmas.

2374
02:16:04.319 --> 02:16:06.680
<v Speaker 2>So now he's got the responsibility for maintaining it, up

2375
02:16:06.720 --> 02:16:09.479
<v Speaker 2>keeping it and guess what it's at Foreign Exchange Westchester

2376
02:16:09.600 --> 02:16:12.960
<v Speaker 2>location of course, where Austin and the a SC Certified

2377
02:16:12.960 --> 02:16:15.960
<v Speaker 2>Master Technicians gave it a full front to back and

2378
02:16:16.039 --> 02:16:18.760
<v Speaker 2>found out actually quite a few things going on with

2379
02:16:18.800 --> 02:16:21.039
<v Speaker 2>the Honda. I think he knew what he was getting into,

2380
02:16:21.159 --> 02:16:23.319
<v Speaker 2>but his responsibility, and of course he's glad he took

2381
02:16:23.359 --> 02:16:25.439
<v Speaker 2>it to the Foreign Exchange because the price will be

2382
02:16:25.720 --> 02:16:28.800
<v Speaker 2>far better for the repair work that he needs, including

2383
02:16:28.800 --> 02:16:31.600
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and fifty one thousand mile maintenance and that's

2384
02:16:31.680 --> 02:16:33.520
<v Speaker 2>quite a bit of work there for that one. But

2385
02:16:33.600 --> 02:16:35.360
<v Speaker 2>if he'd taken it to the dealer, he would have

2386
02:16:35.440 --> 02:16:38.760
<v Speaker 2>paid a whole lot more. And that's the point. You

2387
02:16:38.840 --> 02:16:41.639
<v Speaker 2>get an a SC Certified Master technician with data access

2388
02:16:41.680 --> 02:16:45.559
<v Speaker 2>to your manufacturer's technical information. They know what they're doing

2389
02:16:45.600 --> 02:16:48.799
<v Speaker 2>whether your car's from a traditional Asian or European manufacturer,

2390
02:16:49.399 --> 02:16:53.479
<v Speaker 2>and also Tesla's. You can take your Tesla for service

2391
02:16:53.520 --> 02:16:55.600
<v Speaker 2>to Foreign Exchange, they know what they're doing with Tesla's

2392
02:16:55.639 --> 02:16:59.520
<v Speaker 2>as well. BOSH certified business. But Austin understands you know,

2393
02:17:00.200 --> 02:17:02.120
<v Speaker 2>times being what they are, but it's always been the

2394
02:17:02.120 --> 02:17:04.600
<v Speaker 2>case with Austin. Don't pay as much as the deal

2395
02:17:04.680 --> 02:17:06.319
<v Speaker 2>or bring it in here. You'll leave with a full

2396
02:17:06.360 --> 02:17:09.520
<v Speaker 2>warranty on parts and service and more money in your pocket.

<v Speaker 2>woman responsible a large part of Ohiolans for Child Protects,

2429

<v Speaker 2>Rebecca Sirendorff, is on the phone to talk about her

2430
02:19:04.120 --> 02:19:07.479
<v Speaker 2>journey to get this bill enacted. Rebecca initially, let me

2431
02:19:07.680 --> 02:19:11.479
<v Speaker 2>thank you on behalf of myself personally and my listening

2432
02:19:11.520 --> 02:19:14.920
<v Speaker 2>audience and every parent of a young child out there

2433
02:19:14.959 --> 02:19:17.680
<v Speaker 2>for getting this pass and over the finish line, what

2434
02:19:17.719 --> 02:19:21.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm reading about this father Cutcher, for example, is just

2435
02:19:22.120 --> 02:19:25.440
<v Speaker 2>absolutely horrific and disgusting. Welcome to the fifty five care

2436
02:19:25.440 --> 02:19:26.879
<v Speaker 2>Sing Morning Show, Rebecca.

2437
02:19:27.639 --> 02:19:30.520
<v Speaker 10>Good morning, and thank you so much. Really, this was

2438
02:19:30.559 --> 02:19:35.040
<v Speaker 10>such a collaborative effort from moms and dads and grandparents

2439
02:19:35.079 --> 02:19:39.000
<v Speaker 10>picking up the phone and calling lawmakers to our bill sponsors,

2440
02:19:39.079 --> 02:19:42.719
<v Speaker 10>Bill Sites and Cindy Abrams and great committee heads like

2441
02:19:42.799 --> 02:19:46.639
<v Speaker 10>Manning and Hillier that helped usher this through. We had

2442
02:19:46.639 --> 02:19:50.079
<v Speaker 10>floor speeches from both sides the aisle and support and

2443
02:19:50.120 --> 02:19:52.920
<v Speaker 10>it went through unanimously in the Senate and all but

2444
02:19:53.000 --> 02:19:55.879
<v Speaker 10>one vote in the House. So this really took a

2445
02:19:55.959 --> 02:19:59.760
<v Speaker 10>village and hopefully we'll be able to collaborate again because

2446
02:20:00.000 --> 02:20:01.840
<v Speaker 10>there's way too much sex abuse in our state.

2447
02:20:02.200 --> 02:20:03.959
<v Speaker 2>Well it really is, and you know, the job is

2448
02:20:04.000 --> 02:20:07.639
<v Speaker 2>not over. As I'm looking at the reporting from wcpo's

2449
02:20:07.719 --> 02:20:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Paula Christian who was following this story, Ohio is the

2450
02:20:11.520 --> 02:20:15.159
<v Speaker 2>sixth that's six, number six in the nation to criminalize

2451
02:20:15.239 --> 02:20:19.440
<v Speaker 2>child grooming for sex. I find that impossible to believe. Rebecca,

2452
02:20:21.120 --> 02:20:23.079
<v Speaker 2>do you have any concept as to how or why

2453
02:20:23.120 --> 02:20:25.719
<v Speaker 2>that might be. Because we've had the Internet around in

2454
02:20:25.799 --> 02:20:27.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, social media and the like, which makes it

2455
02:20:27.879 --> 02:20:31.120
<v Speaker 2>so easy for perverts to reach out to children. People

2456
02:20:31.239 --> 02:20:34.079
<v Speaker 2>pretend to be young people and make friends online. We've

2457
02:20:34.120 --> 02:20:36.200
<v Speaker 2>heard story after story after story, and it has been

2458
02:20:36.200 --> 02:20:39.120
<v Speaker 2>going on for years. How is it that more states

2459
02:20:39.159 --> 02:20:40.639
<v Speaker 2>haven't done something about this?

2460
02:20:42.360 --> 02:20:45.040
<v Speaker 10>Well, I think in part it's a few factors, right.

2461
02:20:45.399 --> 02:20:48.040
<v Speaker 10>I think in our imaginations, a lot of us were

2462
02:20:48.120 --> 02:20:51.600
<v Speaker 10>raised with the concept of stranger danger, right. But the

2463
02:20:51.600 --> 02:20:54.760
<v Speaker 10>facts of child sex abuse is most children know their offender,

2464
02:20:55.200 --> 02:20:57.920
<v Speaker 10>and many families know them and trust them. When you

2465
02:20:57.959 --> 02:21:01.639
<v Speaker 10>look at online abuse right now, University of New Hampshire

2466
02:21:01.760 --> 02:21:04.360
<v Speaker 10>estimates that about one in six kids in our country

2467
02:21:04.399 --> 02:21:08.520
<v Speaker 10>are being exploited online and over sixty percent of those

2468
02:21:08.559 --> 02:21:12.159
<v Speaker 10>offenders online already know your child and their offline life.

2469
02:21:13.120 --> 02:21:17.120
<v Speaker 10>Many times they're presenting themselves as somebody else in peerage, right.

2470
02:21:17.760 --> 02:21:20.200
<v Speaker 10>And so, first of all, there's a lot of misconceptions

2471
02:21:20.200 --> 02:21:22.520
<v Speaker 10>about that how this works.

2472
02:21:22.760 --> 02:21:23.000
<v Speaker 4>Right.

2473
02:21:23.520 --> 02:21:27.159
<v Speaker 10>We also as parents believe that because we sat down

2474
02:21:27.159 --> 02:21:30.040
<v Speaker 10>and talked to our kids about these things such a

2475
02:21:30.079 --> 02:21:33.799
<v Speaker 10>stranger danger or that people shouldn't touch you into certain

2476
02:21:33.840 --> 02:21:37.079
<v Speaker 10>places that your child will come home and tell you

2477
02:21:37.120 --> 02:21:42.559
<v Speaker 10>about the assault. And the sad reality is that delayed

2478
02:21:42.559 --> 02:21:46.120
<v Speaker 10>disclosure is a real problem for a child after they've

2479
02:21:46.120 --> 02:21:51.120
<v Speaker 10>been assaulted. Many offenders will threaten a child, They manipulate

2480
02:21:51.159 --> 02:21:53.040
<v Speaker 10>them in ways to make the child feel as if

2481
02:21:53.079 --> 02:21:56.959
<v Speaker 10>they're wrongly complicit in this abuse. They'll threaten to harm

2482
02:21:57.000 --> 02:22:03.120
<v Speaker 10>another sibling if they disclose, and also PTSD and trauma.

2483
02:22:05.000 --> 02:22:09.639
<v Speaker 10>Usually a child can be disassociating. There's a lot happening

2484
02:22:09.639 --> 02:22:13.319
<v Speaker 10>in the aftermath of assault, and your child may not

2485
02:22:13.440 --> 02:22:18.760
<v Speaker 10>come home and tell you, and sometimes just fear will

2486
02:22:18.799 --> 02:22:23.280
<v Speaker 10>you believe them is a problem. So it's important that

2487
02:22:23.319 --> 02:22:26.319
<v Speaker 10>we have programs like Aaron's Law that was just passed

2488
02:22:26.319 --> 02:22:31.040
<v Speaker 10>two years ago. But sadly, all the religious schools in

2489
02:22:31.040 --> 02:22:33.159
<v Speaker 10>our state were carved out of that, so we're not

2490
02:22:33.280 --> 02:22:36.479
<v Speaker 10>equally protecting the kids. It's only the public school kids

2491
02:22:36.520 --> 02:22:40.879
<v Speaker 10>with Aaron's Law training, and that's age appropriate body safety training.

2492
02:22:41.840 --> 02:22:44.639
<v Speaker 10>And many people will tell you that after a large

2493
02:22:44.639 --> 02:22:48.239
<v Speaker 10>school has that training, they have a few children step

2494
02:22:48.319 --> 02:22:52.440
<v Speaker 10>forward at the end of it, because this is trained

2495
02:22:52.559 --> 02:22:56.319
<v Speaker 10>professionals that know how to phrase things in the right

2496
02:22:56.360 --> 02:22:58.959
<v Speaker 10>way for the age of a child and their understanding,

2497
02:22:59.680 --> 02:23:03.079
<v Speaker 10>and it just gets to a different level because many

2498
02:23:03.120 --> 02:23:06.879
<v Speaker 10>times you have to describe a behavior, Like a forensic nurse,

2499
02:23:06.920 --> 02:23:09.920
<v Speaker 10>for example, is not going to ask someone have you

2500
02:23:09.959 --> 02:23:13.920
<v Speaker 10>been ranked? They will maybe describe the circumstances. That is

2501
02:23:14.000 --> 02:23:17.760
<v Speaker 10>because even labeling what an assault is is its own

2502
02:23:17.840 --> 02:23:23.799
<v Speaker 10>process for any age victim. Right, So getting evidence based

2503
02:23:23.840 --> 02:23:27.639
<v Speaker 10>approaches is so key, and that's why we've been calling

2504
02:23:27.680 --> 02:23:31.360
<v Speaker 10>for Sexual Violence Caucus up at the state House. We

2505
02:23:31.399 --> 02:23:34.239
<v Speaker 10>would like to get all the minds to the table,

2506
02:23:34.520 --> 02:23:38.200
<v Speaker 10>from lawmakers to forensic nurses, to the good folks that

2507
02:23:38.280 --> 02:23:43.239
<v Speaker 10>ohiolianced sexual violence, the council and child abuse. There's so

2508
02:23:43.360 --> 02:23:48.680
<v Speaker 10>many great organizations in our state and law enforcement, the prosecutors.

2509
02:23:49.319 --> 02:23:51.879
<v Speaker 10>Get these people to the table and let's start taking

2510
02:23:51.920 --> 02:23:56.840
<v Speaker 10>a comprehensive approach to updating our laws because predators are

2511
02:23:56.840 --> 02:24:01.639
<v Speaker 10>always updating what they're doing and how they're exploiting our children,

2512
02:24:01.879 --> 02:24:05.000
<v Speaker 10>and the legislative process can take a long time. This

2513
02:24:05.040 --> 02:24:08.479
<v Speaker 10>bill took five years to get to the finish line.

2514
02:24:09.280 --> 02:24:12.040
<v Speaker 12>Five Yes, I.

2515
02:24:12.000 --> 02:24:15.399
<v Speaker 10>Think about the children that were exploited in that time. Well,

2516
02:24:15.440 --> 02:24:17.959
<v Speaker 10>sta Is the Girls Report says one in five girls

2517
02:24:18.000 --> 02:24:21.280
<v Speaker 10>were sexually assaulted in Ohio in the last twelve months

2518
02:24:21.399 --> 02:24:23.879
<v Speaker 10>when they did a climate survey of our.

2519
02:24:23.719 --> 02:24:27.799
<v Speaker 1>Younger god and five.

2520
02:24:27.840 --> 02:24:31.159
<v Speaker 10>One in five, we're above the national average. Can you

2521
02:24:31.200 --> 02:24:33.559
<v Speaker 10>imagine if one in five cars were stolen this year?

2522
02:24:33.639 --> 02:24:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Ah, they be screaming, bloody nightmare. Let's I tell you what.

2523
02:24:37.479 --> 02:24:39.239
<v Speaker 2>We're not done with this conversation, re Beeck. I want

2524
02:24:39.239 --> 02:24:40.479
<v Speaker 2>to hold you over and talk a little bit more

2525
02:24:40.520 --> 02:24:43.399
<v Speaker 2>about it. I'm also curious to know about the lone

2526
02:24:43.520 --> 02:24:45.760
<v Speaker 2>no vote, but I want you to lighten my listeners

2527
02:24:45.760 --> 02:24:50.399
<v Speaker 2>as to how this will work and how this grooing

2528
02:24:50.440 --> 02:24:52.959
<v Speaker 2>process and how far it has to go before they

2529
02:24:53.319 --> 02:24:57.319
<v Speaker 2>might find themselves subject to criminal liability under this new law.

2530
02:24:57.559 --> 02:25:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Will continue with and thank God for her, Rebecca Cerndorff

2531
02:25:01.360 --> 02:25:02.799
<v Speaker 2>after these brief words.

2532

2554
02:26:11.799 --> 02:26:13.879
<v Speaker 2>and there's some terrible people out in the world. One

2555
02:26:13.879 --> 02:26:16.559
<v Speaker 2>of the good ones so fighting for protecting our young

2556

2557

<v Speaker 2>on the program Highlands for Child Protection. It's easy to

2558
02:26:24.879 --> 02:26:27.600
<v Speaker 2>find her organization if you're a face on Facebook. Just

2559
02:26:27.799 --> 02:26:30.079
<v Speaker 2>search Ohilands for Child Protection to take you right to

2560
02:26:30.120 --> 02:26:32.600
<v Speaker 2>the web page. And congratulations on getting Mike Dwyane to

2561
02:26:32.639 --> 02:26:36.120
<v Speaker 2>sign this. It only took five years to get the

2562
02:26:36.120 --> 02:26:43.040
<v Speaker 2>bill that criminalizes grooming, and you mentioned it was unanimous

2563
02:26:43.079 --> 02:26:45.479
<v Speaker 2>with the exception of one House vote. Can I ask

2564
02:26:45.600 --> 02:26:46.520
<v Speaker 2>why that was?

2565
02:26:46.280 --> 02:26:46.319
<v Speaker 6>It?

2566
02:26:46.520 --> 02:26:49.079
<v Speaker 2>Was it a no vote or an abstention vote? And

2567
02:26:49.360 --> 02:26:53.079
<v Speaker 2>I was there any reason associated with not embracing this seemingly,

2568
02:26:54.719 --> 02:26:59.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean bulletproof from a needs standpoint bill.

2569
02:27:01.239 --> 02:27:03.799
<v Speaker 10>We'd never circle back with the lawmaker, but I would

2570
02:27:03.840 --> 02:27:07.920
<v Speaker 10>imagine that maybe they just wanted to just register that

2571
02:27:08.879 --> 02:27:11.799
<v Speaker 10>like a pause there of like, let's make sure it's

2572
02:27:11.879 --> 02:27:15.399
<v Speaker 10>narrow enough. And that's a good thing to have, is

2573
02:27:15.399 --> 02:27:18.559
<v Speaker 10>whenever you're looking to criminalize something, particularly when you're going

2574
02:27:18.639 --> 02:27:21.079
<v Speaker 10>to have a new crime in your state, you want

2575
02:27:21.120 --> 02:27:23.520
<v Speaker 10>to make sure that it's constructed in such a way

2576
02:27:23.680 --> 02:27:26.319
<v Speaker 10>that it won't be tossed out for vagueness or that

2577
02:27:26.399 --> 02:27:28.799
<v Speaker 10>your nets so wide that you would sweep up and

2578
02:27:28.879 --> 02:27:33.239
<v Speaker 10>assent people, because that is not our intention in any way.

2579
02:27:33.520 --> 02:27:38.680
<v Speaker 10>And after further vetting of this bill, everyone became much

2580
02:27:38.719 --> 02:27:41.600
<v Speaker 10>more comfortable with it, and it's great that that's how

2581
02:27:41.639 --> 02:27:46.760
<v Speaker 10>this process works in committee. And basically this is constructed

2582
02:27:48.360 --> 02:27:50.920
<v Speaker 10>to kind of mirror other parts of OHIO revised code,

2583
02:27:51.200 --> 02:27:55.719
<v Speaker 10>like pattern of behavior in grooming mimics that in stalking

2584
02:27:56.440 --> 02:28:04.040
<v Speaker 10>and stalking itself. Individual behaviors and stalking can be relatively innocent, right,

2585
02:28:04.120 --> 02:28:08.639
<v Speaker 10>Like if someone going past your house this morning, completely

2586
02:28:08.680 --> 02:28:12.319
<v Speaker 10>innocent behavior, isn't it. But if they came past your

2587
02:28:12.360 --> 02:28:17.000
<v Speaker 10>house eighty times in the one week, combined with.

2588
02:28:17.520 --> 02:28:22.399
<v Speaker 2>Like they show show up at your job site, Yeah, yeah.

2589
02:28:22.159 --> 02:28:25.920
<v Speaker 10>Right, I mean we all know the difference between like

2590
02:28:26.680 --> 02:28:30.479
<v Speaker 10>innocent behavior creepy behavior, and clearly there is more to

2591
02:28:30.680 --> 02:28:34.360
<v Speaker 10>this like threatening behavior, right right. And then that ties

2592
02:28:34.440 --> 02:28:39.120
<v Speaker 10>into this reasonable adult standard which is all over US laws.

2593
02:28:39.639 --> 02:28:42.479
<v Speaker 10>Is this notion of would any reasonable adults see that

2594
02:28:42.600 --> 02:28:46.559
<v Speaker 10>the purpose and purpose is also another keyword when it

2595
02:28:46.559 --> 02:28:50.479
<v Speaker 10>comes time writing laws. It is a higher standard than,

2596
02:28:50.559 --> 02:28:54.360
<v Speaker 10>for example, recklessness, right exactly, So does a reasonable adult

2597
02:28:54.399 --> 02:28:58.239
<v Speaker 10>see that this was for the purpose of sex abuse?

2598
02:28:59.000 --> 02:29:04.520
<v Speaker 10>And then the tear mirrors also are sexual battery laws.

2599
02:29:04.760 --> 02:29:07.719
<v Speaker 10>So if this is someone in a position of authority

2600
02:29:07.719 --> 02:29:10.920
<v Speaker 10>over a minor, such as a teacher or a coach,

2601
02:29:11.040 --> 02:29:14.040
<v Speaker 10>or a youth minister or a cleric, you now have

2602
02:29:15.000 --> 02:29:17.440
<v Speaker 10>a different tier for that. It also tears it for

2603
02:29:17.680 --> 02:29:21.159
<v Speaker 10>if there's drugs and alcohol and if the victim is

2604
02:29:21.239 --> 02:29:24.639
<v Speaker 10>under thirteen years of age. So this starts out as

2605
02:29:24.680 --> 02:29:28.479
<v Speaker 10>a misdemeanor and it becomes a felony based off of

2606
02:29:28.520 --> 02:29:33.440
<v Speaker 10>if you have priors for sex offenses as well, because

2607
02:29:33.479 --> 02:29:37.440
<v Speaker 10>we were still leaving the door open for like someone

2608
02:29:38.040 --> 02:29:43.319
<v Speaker 10>did not realize, like how very problematic their behavior with

2609
02:29:43.360 --> 02:29:45.879
<v Speaker 10>a minorus, that they have a chance to clean it

2610
02:29:46.000 --> 02:29:51.559
<v Speaker 10>up if they don't have that special relationship as a

2611
02:29:51.600 --> 02:29:55.479
<v Speaker 10>position of authority over the minor and that. But we

2612
02:29:55.559 --> 02:29:58.440
<v Speaker 10>wanted something that's going to come up on a background check, right,

2613
02:29:58.559 --> 02:30:02.520
<v Speaker 10>all these youth serving lords the background text, if they

2614
02:30:02.600 --> 02:30:06.440
<v Speaker 10>can't see that you have a history of grooming minors,

2615
02:30:06.680 --> 02:30:09.879
<v Speaker 10>then how are they going to guard the gates as

2616
02:30:09.920 --> 02:30:13.680
<v Speaker 10>to who has a lot of accets and authority over children?

2617
02:30:14.559 --> 02:30:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Fair enough? And I, you know, as I sit here,

2618
02:30:17.120 --> 02:30:20.959
<v Speaker 2>part of this reasonable standard I suppose is under what

2619
02:30:21.239 --> 02:30:24.399
<v Speaker 2>circumstances And I personally with the exception of you know,

2620
02:30:24.719 --> 02:30:26.799
<v Speaker 2>and my children are grown. My son's thirty, my daughter's

2621
02:30:26.840 --> 02:30:29.360
<v Speaker 2>twenty eight. But I'm projecting backwards and I'm remembering when

2622
02:30:29.399 --> 02:30:32.520
<v Speaker 2>they were younger, I might have a reason if I'm

2623
02:30:32.520 --> 02:30:34.840
<v Speaker 2>trying to find where my son is, and these these

2624
02:30:34.879 --> 02:30:38.159
<v Speaker 2>technological age we already kids got cell phones anyway, The

2625
02:30:38.280 --> 02:30:41.440
<v Speaker 2>only reason I can think I would even be interacting

2626
02:30:41.520 --> 02:30:43.799
<v Speaker 2>with someone who is this young would be maybe to

2627
02:30:43.840 --> 02:30:45.520
<v Speaker 2>try to track down my son. But that would be

2628
02:30:45.520 --> 02:30:48.120
<v Speaker 2>an innocuous sort of hey do you know where Jerry is?

2629
02:30:48.200 --> 02:30:50.559
<v Speaker 2>Kind of thing. It's a fair question to ask one

2630
02:30:50.559 --> 02:30:52.959
<v Speaker 2>of his friends, even if they're only twelve years old.

2631
02:30:53.360 --> 02:30:58.200
<v Speaker 2>But beyond that, why would any grown adult have reason

2632
02:30:58.319 --> 02:31:02.120
<v Speaker 2>to regularly communicate with a minor along these lines when

2633
02:31:02.120 --> 02:31:05.000
<v Speaker 2>they're not you know, a parental figure or someone that

2634
02:31:05.120 --> 02:31:08.639
<v Speaker 2>has an in local parentice relationship to that young child.

2635
02:31:10.000 --> 02:31:15.000
<v Speaker 10>Right, Well, there are forty two grooming behaviors that were

2636
02:31:15.000 --> 02:31:19.000
<v Speaker 10>found in some research by Winters in jaglists out of

2637
02:31:19.079 --> 02:31:23.000
<v Speaker 10>John Jay College. If I recall, and basically, the more

2638
02:31:23.079 --> 02:31:26.280
<v Speaker 10>these behaviors you see, the more apt that this is

2639
02:31:26.479 --> 02:31:31.479
<v Speaker 10>probably escalating or that abuse has already occurred. And they

2640
02:31:31.680 --> 02:31:35.840
<v Speaker 10>basically researched what was normal mentor behavior with people had

2641
02:31:35.879 --> 02:31:38.959
<v Speaker 10>never been abused and those that were, and there's a

2642
02:31:39.000 --> 02:31:43.959
<v Speaker 10>whole series of red flag behaviors that you're in a

2643
02:31:44.040 --> 02:31:48.000
<v Speaker 10>high risk situation if you were seeing them, and some

2644
02:31:48.120 --> 02:31:51.920
<v Speaker 10>of it is creating circumstances like we saw with the

2645
02:31:51.959 --> 02:31:56.239
<v Speaker 10>Sandusky case, creating circumstances to be showering with the youth,

2646
02:31:56.719 --> 02:32:00.920
<v Speaker 10>right that you were creating circumstances for nudities, encouraging young

2647
02:32:00.959 --> 02:32:04.760
<v Speaker 10>people the skinny dip with you, which we see in

2648
02:32:04.840 --> 02:32:09.079
<v Speaker 10>some of the investigative reports have been done on historic

2649
02:32:09.440 --> 02:32:14.200
<v Speaker 10>church abuse as well. Also adults that are texting minors

2650
02:32:14.600 --> 02:32:17.760
<v Speaker 10>about sex acts, but it is clearly not in the

2651
02:32:17.840 --> 02:32:20.479
<v Speaker 10>spirit of sex ad We all know what that really

2652
02:32:20.520 --> 02:32:23.799
<v Speaker 10>looks like in life, right to your health teacher or

2653
02:32:24.639 --> 02:32:28.159
<v Speaker 10>the parent or custodian of the child having a discussion

2654
02:32:28.200 --> 02:32:33.680
<v Speaker 10>with them, many times bringing thoughtful resources, particularly in a

2655
02:32:33.680 --> 02:32:35.920
<v Speaker 10>classroom setting. I mean, we all know how this is

2656
02:32:35.920 --> 02:32:39.440
<v Speaker 10>done right out of the health books, right and this instead,

2657
02:32:39.479 --> 02:32:42.200
<v Speaker 10>like if you look at the Culture case, I can't

2658
02:32:42.280 --> 02:32:46.479
<v Speaker 10>even quote some of the content there on the region

2659
02:32:46.840 --> 02:32:48.319
<v Speaker 10>because it's better regulated.

2660
02:32:48.440 --> 02:32:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Right.

2661
02:32:49.440 --> 02:32:52.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I'm reading some of it right now. This is

2662
02:32:52.120 --> 02:32:56.399
<v Speaker 2>why this is text messages back and forth. And again

2663
02:32:56.760 --> 02:33:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to envision the circumstances why any adult would

2664
02:33:00.120 --> 02:33:03.440
<v Speaker 2>need to engage in any type of long back and forth,

2665
02:33:03.559 --> 02:33:07.120
<v Speaker 2>regularly occurring discussion with someone of that age. And this

2666
02:33:07.200 --> 02:33:09.840
<v Speaker 2>kid was I guess fourteen years old or I don't know,

2667
02:33:10.159 --> 02:33:14.120
<v Speaker 2>but for this this minister to be we have regularly engaged.

2668
02:33:14.200 --> 02:33:17.399
<v Speaker 2>This is not providing counseling or ministry. This isn't, you know,

2669
02:33:17.520 --> 02:33:21.120
<v Speaker 2>coming into the priest's office and sitting down and getting

2670
02:33:21.559 --> 02:33:23.639
<v Speaker 2>advice about the lord or something.

2671
02:33:25.399 --> 02:33:30.440
<v Speaker 10>I'm just and I think as parents and concerned adults,

2672
02:33:30.719 --> 02:33:33.399
<v Speaker 10>I would see this as that when you're seeing things

2673
02:33:33.440 --> 02:33:36.040
<v Speaker 10>that are starting to add up and you're concerned, right,

2674
02:33:36.680 --> 02:33:40.239
<v Speaker 10>First of all, like start monitoring the situation. Better, consider

2675
02:33:40.319 --> 02:33:44.440
<v Speaker 10>this like a yellow light situation here, and if this

2676
02:33:44.479 --> 02:33:48.319
<v Speaker 10>is happening at a school, you may want to start

2677
02:33:48.360 --> 02:33:52.120
<v Speaker 10>documenting the concerns or co child protective services. This is

2678
02:33:52.159 --> 02:33:53.840
<v Speaker 10>one of the things we hope will come of this

2679
02:33:54.280 --> 02:33:57.360
<v Speaker 10>is that now when you're reporting grooming behavior, you are

2680
02:33:57.399 --> 02:34:02.680
<v Speaker 10>now reporting a crime potentially right, and in the past

2681
02:34:04.239 --> 02:34:07.360
<v Speaker 10>this wasn't quite categorized as anything because it's very rare

2682
02:34:07.760 --> 02:34:10.520
<v Speaker 10>for someone to witness the sexual assault, and these things

2683
02:34:10.520 --> 02:34:14.479
<v Speaker 10>happened behind closed doors. The grooming is the smoke and

2684
02:34:14.559 --> 02:34:19.879
<v Speaker 10>there's usually a fire, right, but the responsible adults see

2685
02:34:20.120 --> 02:34:24.520
<v Speaker 10>the grooming behavior, and sometimes because these are young children,

2686
02:34:24.920 --> 02:34:27.920
<v Speaker 10>we're missing the larger context here. Like in the father

2687
02:34:28.040 --> 02:34:31.799
<v Speaker 10>Jeff Drew case, we saw reports from boys in three

2688
02:34:31.840 --> 02:34:36.120
<v Speaker 10>different counting over the course of multiple decades from the

2689
02:34:36.159 --> 02:34:40.440
<v Speaker 10>eighties right up until a few years before his arrest,

2690
02:34:41.440 --> 02:34:44.040
<v Speaker 10>that they were reporting they didn't like the hugs from behind,

2691
02:34:44.280 --> 02:34:47.680
<v Speaker 10>the hugs from behind. Well, these are young children. They

2692
02:34:47.760 --> 02:34:50.879
<v Speaker 10>knew they didn't like the hugs from behind, but it

2693
02:34:51.040 --> 02:34:55.479
<v Speaker 10>wasn't until I heard the victim impact statement two years

2694
02:34:55.520 --> 02:35:00.399
<v Speaker 10>after Drew's arrest when he was pleading guilty, that the

2695
02:35:00.479 --> 02:35:04.440
<v Speaker 10>victims spelled out as an adult man that Drew was

2696
02:35:04.479 --> 02:35:08.159
<v Speaker 10>aroused and rubbing himself on them. That's already a crime

2697
02:35:08.200 --> 02:35:10.879
<v Speaker 10>in Ohio. Right, But this gives back to vocabulary and

2698
02:35:10.959 --> 02:35:11.639
<v Speaker 10>the young mind.

2699
02:35:12.000 --> 02:35:12.159
<v Speaker 8>Right.

2700
02:35:12.399 --> 02:35:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the child isn't.

2701
02:35:13.559 --> 02:35:16.399
<v Speaker 10>The vocabulary for it. It'd be very difficult to train

2702
02:35:16.479 --> 02:35:20.239
<v Speaker 10>them to understand that moment better. Yes, but make into

2703
02:35:20.280 --> 02:35:24.719
<v Speaker 10>account the alarm that your child has. Right, Your child

2704
02:35:24.760 --> 02:35:27.399
<v Speaker 10>isn't coming home to report a hug that felt good.

2705
02:35:27.840 --> 02:35:32.440
<v Speaker 10>They're coming home because their body was telling them that

2706
02:35:32.520 --> 02:35:36.559
<v Speaker 10>they were in danger. And if anything, tell your child

2707
02:35:36.559 --> 02:35:39.319
<v Speaker 10>to trust themselves and their instincts. If someone's making them

2708
02:35:39.360 --> 02:35:43.719
<v Speaker 10>feel sick to their stomach, they should tell you about it,

2709
02:35:43.239 --> 02:35:45.639
<v Speaker 10>and they don't have to unpack it for you today,

2710
02:35:46.159 --> 02:35:49.760
<v Speaker 10>but they're allowed to proceed with caution. And I think

2711
02:35:49.760 --> 02:35:51.840
<v Speaker 10>it's also good for children to have a safe word.

2712
02:35:53.040 --> 02:35:56.000
<v Speaker 10>One of the great moms that we spoke to that's

2713
02:35:56.079 --> 02:36:00.840
<v Speaker 10>retired from working with exploited children, he said, it's great

2714
02:36:00.840 --> 02:36:03.440
<v Speaker 10>for your child to have something that they can text

2715
02:36:03.600 --> 02:36:07.159
<v Speaker 10>you or say to you. I think they're quite verifiable,

2716
02:36:07.559 --> 02:36:12.000
<v Speaker 10>but lets you know that they don't feel safe in

2717
02:36:12.079 --> 02:36:19.680
<v Speaker 10>this moment, whether it's a sleepover.

2718
02:36:16.159 --> 02:36:21.959
<v Speaker 2>Ye, Uncle, your child's hanging out it Uncle Jim's down

2719
02:36:22.000 --> 02:36:25.079
<v Speaker 2>the street too regularly that I mean, like that kind

2720
02:36:25.120 --> 02:36:28.200
<v Speaker 2>of thing. Red flag. Wait, why is a grown person,

2721
02:36:28.360 --> 02:36:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Why is a grown man spending so much time with

2722
02:36:31.120 --> 02:36:35.479
<v Speaker 2>my minor child? You know, outside of the regular confines

2723
02:36:35.520 --> 02:36:38.360
<v Speaker 2>of the norm. Like again, going to church and seeing

2724
02:36:38.360 --> 02:36:40.319
<v Speaker 2>the priest, that's one thing, But if the priest is

2725
02:36:40.319 --> 02:36:43.360
<v Speaker 2>inviting your child over to his house, that's a completely

2726
02:36:43.360 --> 02:36:44.520
<v Speaker 2>different thing right there.

2727
02:36:45.639 --> 02:36:49.559
<v Speaker 10>And I think this happened gradually, right, Like these things

2728
02:36:49.600 --> 02:36:52.520
<v Speaker 10>start off looking innocent and then they take a dark turn.

2729
02:36:52.920 --> 02:36:55.479
<v Speaker 10>And it's important to just kind of reframe it. Think

2730
02:36:55.520 --> 02:36:59.280
<v Speaker 10>of the other trusted adults in your life, your child's life,

2731
02:36:59.319 --> 02:37:02.639
<v Speaker 10>and then just take these behaviors, plug in different names

2732
02:37:02.639 --> 02:37:06.639
<v Speaker 10>and if it sounds bizarre, you need to rethink is

2733
02:37:06.639 --> 02:37:09.079
<v Speaker 10>this perceived with a ton of caution? Or are we

2734
02:37:09.200 --> 02:37:12.360
<v Speaker 10>picking up the phone and calling child protective services about

2735
02:37:12.360 --> 02:37:15.440
<v Speaker 10>it or the police? And by all means, watch your

2736
02:37:15.559 --> 02:37:21.120
<v Speaker 10>child's social media used. I can't tell you, ohapat coming up.

2737
02:37:22.959 --> 02:37:26.639
<v Speaker 2>But you hit upon one of my pet peeves right there.

2738
02:37:26.680 --> 02:37:31.200
<v Speaker 2>We have so much capability to control our children's interactions online.

2739
02:37:31.239 --> 02:37:33.600
<v Speaker 2>You have special software you can put on. You can

2740
02:37:33.680 --> 02:37:37.840
<v Speaker 2>monitor your child's online behavior remotely, but just by installing

2741
02:37:37.879 --> 02:37:40.559
<v Speaker 2>the appropriate app. I don't know why more adults just

2742
02:37:40.600 --> 02:37:44.879
<v Speaker 2>don't do that as a default mechanism period. End of story, Rebecca.

2743
02:37:44.959 --> 02:37:47.000
<v Speaker 2>All I can tell you is thank you very much,

2744
02:37:47.040 --> 02:37:50.120
<v Speaker 2>and I'm just imagining down the road all of the

2745
02:37:50.239 --> 02:37:53.479
<v Speaker 2>children you have saved from. You know, the next step

2746
02:37:54.079 --> 02:38:00.840
<v Speaker 2>after the initiation of this grooming process, Lord Almighty Rebecca sers.

2747
02:37:59.760 --> 02:38:02.959
<v Speaker 10>A one hundred and fifty victims. So if we can

2748
02:38:03.399 --> 02:38:06.600
<v Speaker 10>stop them early in their offending timeline, we can save

2749
02:38:06.680 --> 02:38:08.000
<v Speaker 10>thousands of kids.

2750
02:38:08.079 --> 02:38:11.479
<v Speaker 2>Thousands from a lifetime of psychological harm. Let us not

2751
02:38:12.280 --> 02:38:15.959
<v Speaker 2>ignore that reality. Rebecca, thanks again on behalf of everybody

2752
02:38:16.000 --> 02:38:18.319
<v Speaker 2>in the state of Ohio and all the other states

2753
02:38:18.319 --> 02:38:21.680
<v Speaker 2>out there. Get on board to have a wonderful weekend, Rebecca,

2754
