Speaker 2: That's right now.

Speaker 1: Seven o'clock? That is? That's that's a sunrise service, there is,
Speaker 1: that's what that is?
Speaker 2: Seven darling alas and I thought you say.
Speaker 1: I thought you said seven eleven. Okay, that's enough, probably
Speaker 1: more doable. Yes, seven would be definitely a sunrise service,
Speaker 1: which are always kind of cool.
Speaker 6: Yeah, if you got the boys for it. I try
Speaker 6: to have you in my life. Sally told me not

Speaker 6: Then I you sing up different than the way you talk.
Speaker 6: A lot of singers are that way.

Speaker 1: and Dick is new you as we plunge into the
Speaker 1: first official hour of this Saturday Morning edition for Saturday,
Speaker 1: August the second, twenty twenty five. Tomorrow is my mother
Speaker 1: Miriam's eighty eighth birthday and christ to two point zero,
Speaker 1: and I are heading to Middletown, Wanness. That is a
Speaker 1: plan tomorrow morning to go and celebrate with her and dad,
Speaker 1: and as they get ready to move once again. My
Speaker 1: dad's going to be eighty nine, my mom's eighty eight,
Speaker 1: and they're moving again. I'll mean measuring for drapes in
Speaker 1: a new apartment on Monday. Very exciting stuff, but happy
Speaker 1: birthday early, Mom. And I don't know if they ever
Speaker 1: listen at all. Yeah, that was the thing with my parents.
Speaker 1: They were leery about me going into this business when
Speaker 1: I did when I was nineteen, and for some very
Speaker 1: good reason. They're two of the smartest people I know.
Speaker 1: I should have listened more than likely to them, but
Speaker 1: I didn't find out that they were smart till I
Speaker 1: was about thirty five, and then it was way too late.
Speaker 1: But they never have really been fans. It's not that
Speaker 1: they hate me on the radio, they just don't think
Speaker 1: about it. But I'm going to make sure they check
Speaker 1: out the podcast, so they can hear that. I said,
Speaker 1: happy birthday Mom on the air. I've called her before
Speaker 1: on her birthday. She didn't like that either. Let's talk
Speaker 1: to Dave from Harrison. Dave, good morning, who whoa whoa?
Speaker 4: Good morning?
Speaker 1: What was that.
Speaker 4: Your trailer yesterday on the Big One?
Speaker 2: Said?
Speaker 4: Uh, and there you might even hear monkeys.
Speaker 1: So you know.
Speaker 8: Every day at the zoo, nine am I used to
Speaker 8: who like that?
Speaker 5: I used to work there.
Speaker 1: What did you do with the Cincinnati Zoo.
Speaker 4: I was a super visor for the food service operation. Uh,
Speaker 4: the Cincinnati Caring concessions that worked.
Speaker 1: Out of there. Did you make the mistake of feeding
Speaker 1: the animals? No, let's get to the jokes, Dave three four.
Speaker 4: Three thirty four. Guard Jeff is.
Speaker 9: Back in the day, okay, like the old Testament times,
Speaker 9: know when the plagues, you know, were coming there. Plague
Speaker 9: number two was the frogs, you know, the plague of
Speaker 9: the frogs. They got they were everywhere, greed Jeff. They
Speaker 9: got so high, Jeff, you know how high the frogs
Speaker 9: got during the Second Flag and he DiPT there.
Speaker 1: Oh, at least as high as you are right.
Speaker 4: Now, Gar, Jeff.
Speaker 10: They got they got needed, needed, needed, I.
Speaker 1: Can always tell, Dave, I can always tell it's it's
Speaker 1: a really going to be a really really bad one
Speaker 1: when you have this elaborate, convoluted setup before you tell
Speaker 1: the joke, I can I can always tell it's going
Speaker 1: to be especially stinky. I'm I'm hoping that that was
Speaker 1: the worst of the lot, the worst, first, the best, last. Right,
Speaker 1: we've talked about this, I have tells.
Speaker 4: Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 1: Fifteen fifteen? All right, fifteen?
Speaker 10: You know I had you know I got cataract surgery, right, yeah,
Speaker 10: Well I can see all my goshir Jempa, I can see.
Speaker 4: An eagle now, I can see for miles and miles
Speaker 4: a mile.
Speaker 10: But when when I came out of the operation and
Speaker 10: I went back out in the uh, it's going to
Speaker 10: be too the waiting room there where Cathy was, I'll
Speaker 10: never ever forget looking at her, and I'll never forever
Speaker 10: get what I said.
Speaker 4: You know what I said.
Speaker 1: I said, that's that's your that's your your lovely wife. Dave.
Speaker 1: It's he's not getting any better, Dave, you understand this,
Speaker 1: Do you know why?
Speaker 9: Because the other day I was in a grocery store
Speaker 9: and a man started throwing cheese and butter and yogurt
Speaker 9: ad make.
Speaker 4: Jeff right, how dairy?
Speaker 1: It didn't even make any sense. Dave Kamala Harris makes
Speaker 1: more sense.
Speaker 11: Jokes told by Dave from Harrison are not necessarily considered
Speaker 11: funny by the staff, management, or advertisers of seven hundred
Speaker 11: WLW or his parent company, iHeartMedia. If these attempts at
Speaker 11: humor have caused you to roll your eyes, made your
Speaker 11: stomach churn, or you have considered the entire exercise to
Speaker 11: be a colossal waste of time, we deeply apologize. Now
Speaker 11: back to our irregular programming so.
Speaker 1: I can summarize yesterday's press conference with Purval and DG
Speaker 1: and all of the rest of the so called leaders
Speaker 1: have sent a explaining how they're going to keep the
Speaker 1: public and businesses safe from the assorted animals on the
Speaker 1: street downtown and let the police do their job and
Speaker 1: actually arrest people and then keep them in jail. Please.
Speaker 1: That's my soapbox for right now.
Speaker 5: I did.
Speaker 1: I did want to reiterate it an email I got
Speaker 1: yesterday from a listener, Matt, and you could respond in
Speaker 1: kind if you wanted to. Gary Jeff Walker at seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW dot com. He starts, are you listening to
Speaker 1: the clowns on WLW? Right now? These clowns need to go.
Speaker 1: The Cincinnati City Council, thank you, the police chief, thank you,
Speaker 1: and the mayor thank you. Don't care, all must go.
Speaker 1: It's exactly what I said last week, echoing the sentiments
Speaker 1: I try not to get on a soapbox on Saturday mornings.
Speaker 1: This show isn't for that necessarily, and do that all
Speaker 1: day long. But this is just too obvious and glaring
Speaker 1: to not at least acknowledge. I'm done, old radio Rick,
Speaker 1: good morning.
Speaker 5: Hey.
Speaker 4: You know you're doing great as a police chief when
Speaker 4: you become a headline on the Babylon B.
Speaker 1: Right, Oh yeah, I love to be.
Speaker 4: It's like, what is the chief of police in Cincinnati
Speaker 4: ask people to stop filming crime as it makes her
Speaker 4: look bad.
Speaker 1: The Babylon b is a fantastic political satirical site, and
Speaker 1: yes they tend to be more conservative, obviously, but they
Speaker 1: are extremely funny all the time.
Speaker 4: Yes, yep, and unfortunately it's not as what satires it
Speaker 4: used to be because a lot of their satirical headlines
Speaker 4: are bringing true I.
Speaker 1: Know, absolutely absolutely, So what are you how are you
Speaker 1: listening on and how are we coming in this morning?
Speaker 4: Well, bear with me. This is a reception report by proxy.
Speaker 4: Excuse me. You're coming in three by three and that's
Speaker 4: a good thing because this is on a six tube
Speaker 4: nineteen thirty six Westinghouse WR five two car radio that
Speaker 4: is currently mounted in a nineteen forty packard and you're
Speaker 4: being listened to it in that car on top of
Speaker 4: a hill in a family's remote ranch in rural Nevada.
Speaker 5: Good.
Speaker 1: This sounds like the setup of a Day from Harrison.
Speaker 4: Joke, but there's no punchline except that you're coming in
Speaker 4: three by three in Nevada. That's pretty good.
Speaker 1: No, it's it's not terrible. I agree. So people are
Speaker 1: listening for people are listening to me right now on
Speaker 1: a nineteen forty PA in a nineteen forty packard in Nevada.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 4: And he's dressed like banichik.
Speaker 1: Do you make it?
Speaker 4: Two of you who get that joke?
Speaker 1: Tell me about the radio rick.
Speaker 4: It's known as the drum major because it looks just
Speaker 4: like a snare drum. Okay, if a snared drum head
Speaker 4: wires coming out of the side and had a speaker
Speaker 4: grill on top, and the head was made out of
Speaker 4: metal and had a Westinghouse logo on it. I don't know,
Speaker 4: and it's called a drum major, not a drum, so
Speaker 4: I don't do whatever Westinghouse came up with the nickname,
Speaker 4: it wasn't somebody else, but no, it's a cute little thing,
Speaker 4: pardon me. And I'm typical of a nineteen thirty six
Speaker 4: and years around that radio four a card on number
Speaker 4: one at sixfold, which means at some point in time
Speaker 4: somebody hooked it up to a twelve old card and
Speaker 4: blew it up, So that was kind of fun to
Speaker 4: deal with. And the other thing is that it had
Speaker 4: a separate two separate units. So in this case, the
Speaker 4: thing that looks like a drum has the speaker and
Speaker 4: all the tubes and all the electronics in it, and
Speaker 4: then there are mechanical cables almost like bicycle cables that
Speaker 4: run up to the head end unit, which has the
Speaker 4: tuning controls on a volume control and the dial itself.
Speaker 4: And in this particular model, it could either mount underneath
Speaker 4: a dash in the dash or strapped to the side
Speaker 4: of the steering column. And he's got it mounted nicely
Speaker 4: under the dash, and it was basically universal when it
Speaker 4: wasn't made for the car.
Speaker 1: Strapped to the side of the steering column. That doesn't
Speaker 1: sound like that would be a great design.
Speaker 4: But it's it's very noticeable. And let's face it, nineteen
Speaker 4: thirty six, you've got a radio in your car, Really
Speaker 4: you kind of want to make sure it's obvious. I
Speaker 4: guess I don't know. Ye watching either when you're using
Speaker 4: the clutch, Buddy, I got you.
Speaker 1: That's it so well.
Speaker 4: The catalog automatic volume control. Three words that have never
Speaker 4: been more misleading in the old history. Variable tone control,
Speaker 4: which means it's a knob. Suppressor, suppressors unnecessary, Okay, but
Speaker 4: an explanation might be, yeah, I mean, what does that mean?
Speaker 1: Suppressors unnecessary?
Speaker 4: You don't need suppressors?
Speaker 2: Okay, I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't say. I can't think of the last time
Speaker 1: I needed a suppressor.
Speaker 4: But okay, Well, the important thing about suppressors is they suppress,
Speaker 4: and if you suppress with the suppressor, then things are suppressed.
Speaker 4: I have no idea adequate sense, Oh I love this.
Speaker 4: Adequate sensitivity and selectivity.
Speaker 1: Adequate that's what we're looking for here on this show.
Speaker 1: Every Saturday morning, is adequacy.
Speaker 4: And finally, rigid bounting, So we decided to provide you
Speaker 4: with a couple of bolts instead of a shoelace mount
Speaker 4: in the car.
Speaker 1: I guess I don't know rigid mounting. That sounds like
Speaker 1: something else entirely.
Speaker 4: That we're not going to go bad.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you so much for the report.
Speaker 1: And where where in Nevada is this radio in this
Speaker 1: packard being listened to?
Speaker 4: I think he's about twenty miles out of Vegas.
Speaker 1: Okay, as long as he got it, As long as
Speaker 1: he doesn't drive across the country and have an AR
Speaker 1: fifteen when he gets here, I'm fine.
Speaker 4: He's got a huge ranch out there where he raises
Speaker 4: absolutely gorgeous old cars bar I should say restores.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well don't they all? Thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Six two at seven out of WLW. Oh good morning,
Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning Gary Jeff for Saturday morning edition
Speaker 1: and our old buddy Steve from Edna with a fifthyphone
Speaker 1: called a news of the week. Good morning sir, Good morning, Derek,
Speaker 1: Jeff and Ken.
Speaker 12: I thought I heard someone saying, don't worry be happy
Speaker 12: at the jazz fest. I'm going to turned out to
Speaker 12: be a city council woman. So I didn't take it
Speaker 12: too seriously, and well I shouldn't. US Senator Bernie Marino
Speaker 12: appeared on a national talk show Friday and correctly identified
Speaker 12: the woman who was severely beaten as a middle aged American,
Speaker 12: not a Russian citizen as she had been described elsewhere.
Speaker 12: After hearing the description of her injuries, I would question
Speaker 12: that don't happy, be worry? Excuse me, don't worry, be
Speaker 12: happy mantras.
Speaker 1: I think you were right.
Speaker 4: I think that was right the first time.
Speaker 8: The truly shocking part is the question is this news.
Speaker 12: Several weeks ago, three black football players at a South
Speaker 12: Carolina football camp beat a white player so badly he'll
Speaker 12: miss his senior year. The black players got a one
Speaker 12: game suspension. The excuse was the white player said something
Speaker 12: that was the initial complaint by the attackers in Cincinnati.
Speaker 12: This excuse was heard some time ago in Texas at
Speaker 12: a high school camp incident.
Speaker 1: Where's the proof and even if it comes.
Speaker 12: From an unbiased source, what has all this CRT and
Speaker 12: other federally approved hate gotten us? Is there a new
Speaker 12: code of justice? Cincinnati is the birthplace of Charles Manson
Speaker 12: of Helter Skelter fame and the Tate Lobbianca murders in
Speaker 12: Los Angeles by the so called Manson family. Charlie got
Speaker 12: a death sentence, but the US Supreme Court reduced that
Speaker 12: to life in prison. He died a few years ago.
Speaker 12: Charlie was always good copy. As the journalists say, his
Speaker 12: final years mirrored the book and film about him entitled Chaos.
Speaker 12: You can find the same theme in Karl Marx and
Speaker 12: George Soros, and I contend we're in the third stage
Speaker 12: of guerrilla warfare, as taught by Chairman Maoe, all at
Speaker 12: war in the major metro areas, look no further in Chicago, La, Boston,
Speaker 12: and of course New York. Manson's last prayers was for
Speaker 12: a race war in the United States that can only
Speaker 12: happen if we allow it to happen. I was what
Speaker 12: thinking this week of a nineteen fifty four William Golding
Speaker 12: publication which many think is one of the scariest anti
Speaker 12: social theme stories ever written, Lord of the Flies, about
Speaker 12: a group of white British kids marooned on a desert
Speaker 12: island after a plane crash. Initially, they focus on rescue
Speaker 12: efforts that devolves into hunting and horseplay. Tensions rise and
Speaker 12: they split into two groups, and the savagery begins. By
Speaker 12: the time that a naval officer finds them, there has
Speaker 12: been adult worthy chaos, and one of the leaders is
Speaker 12: weeping over the violence and loss of innocence. It might
Speaker 12: be a good time to stop and ask, now, what's next?
Speaker 12: Quote She gave me a dirty look, so I offered
Speaker 12: the mother. In twenty twenty two, psychiatrist Mark McDonald rolled
Speaker 12: out a study of the fear factor in physical and
Speaker 12: mental illness. His best work on this subject is United
Speaker 12: States of Fear. He was interviewed by Cheryl Atkinson on
Speaker 12: full vasor during the COVID hysteria and the coincidental government
Speaker 12: overreach that went with it. He observed among his patients
Speaker 12: increased anxiety, fear, depression, and suicidal thoughts. Considering all variables,
Speaker 12: he centered on the climate of fear stoked by public
Speaker 12: health officials, media and educational establishment lockdowns, maths, and of course,
Speaker 12: vaccination mandates. Doctor McDonald concludes it all took on a
Speaker 12: life of its own. This is a perfect storm that
Speaker 12: has caused us with the help of socialist democrats, campus
Speaker 12: terrorists CCP, dominated university classrooms, and labs, and we need
Speaker 12: rhinos to back burner that big, marvelous new age coming shortly.
Speaker 12: It's big, but it ain't marvelous and it certainly is
Speaker 12: not new Gary Jeff. One more thing, Harrison Bucker, I
Speaker 12: think appeared with the President in Washington when we reinaugurated
Speaker 12: the presidential fitness tests for kids.
Speaker 5: I love that.
Speaker 4: And the three words that he used.
Speaker 12: Were mind, body, and soul. I think we need to
Speaker 12: remember that, don't we take care of yourselves?
Speaker 1: By now? Great stuff from Steve Simon again this week,
Speaker 1: and he's right on point. And as it relates to
Speaker 1: the COVID hysteria, I thought it by not being afraid,
Speaker 1: no matter what I was told by people on this
Speaker 1: radio station that I worked on, by the ads, by
Speaker 1: the news report, wors of all the death and the virility,
Speaker 1: the virility of the disease itself and it was the
Speaker 1: next plague, I didn't believe it, and I didn't live
Speaker 1: in fear and I don't live in fear of a
Speaker 1: race war because that's not what I see on a
Speaker 1: day to day basis living my life. Maybe I'm just
Speaker 1: not in the right place to really witness it, or
Speaker 1: maybe I ignore it as best I can and don't
Speaker 1: let fear rule my life. That being said, I don't
Speaker 1: have any great desire right now to go to downtown Cincinnati,
Speaker 1: not because I'm that afraid, but because I'm not participating.
Speaker 1: I don't want the trophy ray in the Loveland. Good
Speaker 1: morning friend, mister Scott brother. What are you doing?
Speaker 8: My brother of another mother? Happy birthday mom? And I'm

Speaker 7: regional reports coming up, and like other places around the world,
Speaker 7: claims have been made that Arkansas is experiencing negative impacts
Speaker 7: from our inhalation and unusual and unprecedented warming driven by
Speaker 7: the human emissions of carbon dioxide.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 7: However, the primary and surprising takeaway of the research for
Speaker 7: the state of Arkansas is that hit it has experience
Speaker 7: experienced virtually no warming over the past hundred plus years.
Speaker 7: In fact, the hottest temperatures have declined while minimum temperatures
Speaker 7: have increased substantially, leading to a lengthy growing season. So
Speaker 7: I had cultural production, but globally and in Arkansas has
Speaker 7: been breaking records.
Speaker 4: Year after year. And why is this happening, Gary Jeff?
Speaker 7: The production is at trivial first, because we have a
Speaker 7: little bit of warming lower which means longer growing season,
Speaker 7: increasing carbon dioxide fertilization effects, and from fossil fuel derived
Speaker 7: nygrogen fertilizer.
Speaker 1: How dare how dare you deny the heat dome We've
Speaker 1: been gripped in this summer, the hottest summer run record
Speaker 1: one hundred degrees here and there and everywhere. Steve, It's
Speaker 1: it's the end of life as we know it isn't
Speaker 1: it now?
Speaker 7: It isn't not private facts, because the facts are showing
Speaker 7: that if CO two and warmer weather was going to
Speaker 7: decline food production, Gary Jeff, wouldn't we have some signs
Speaker 7: of that by now?
Speaker 1: Yes, the famine would be one.
Speaker 7: Yeah, all signs produce point the robust food production globally
Speaker 7: and as well as in Arkansas will continue in the
Speaker 7: foreseeable future. So you know that's the conclusion is there's
Speaker 7: no evidence of a man made catastrophic climate change. And
Speaker 7: why did I say that a catastrophic climate There's always
Speaker 7: been climate change, Gary Jeff, you know since the Earth
Speaker 7: was first formed.
Speaker 1: However long ago.
Speaker 4: You one believe.
Speaker 1: Every day it is every day we have climate change somewhere. Yep,
Speaker 1: we're experiencing right now in this part of the country.
Speaker 1: We are experiencing a great weekend of climate change compared
Speaker 1: to the nineties and hundreds we were dealing with a
Speaker 1: week ago. Steve, We're we're enjoying climate change right now.
Speaker 1: It's sixty degrees this morning, there's a nice cool breeze,
Speaker 1: there's zero almost zero humidity. The do points like at
Speaker 1: forty eight. I love this climate change we get.
Speaker 7: Gary Jepp talk about an We never hit one hundred degrees,
Speaker 7: No have you know recently? Now now the heat index
Speaker 7: is the headline. Yes, why it feels like because it
Speaker 7: feels like as well as it sounds like.
Speaker 1: It's work.
Speaker 8: But it is worse.
Speaker 7: But we've been dealing with heat index for ever since
Speaker 7: the man was alive. But you and I we didn't
Speaker 7: hear about heat heat index.
Speaker 1: Steve, But Steve, but Steve, if you tell people there's
Speaker 1: a crisis. They'll continue to listen, they'll continue to get clicks,
Speaker 1: and the people people who are telling you that it's
Speaker 1: getting hotter and harder from man made climate change, will
Speaker 1: continue to get money. Yeah, it's all about getting attention.
Speaker 1: A bunch of intentions seeking pigs. That's what we're dealing with.
Speaker 1: Thank you, mister Shulty. Hey, thank you for not being
Speaker 1: an attention seeking pig, even though you're on the radio
Speaker 1: with me every Saturday. It's seven twelve, it's seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 16: Some scientists believe early man began speaking between fifty thousand
Speaker 16: and two million years ago to teach each other how
Speaker 16: to make stone tools.
Speaker 1: Oh thug zud What wrong me? No, can't get ludnuts
Speaker 1: off cart tire with hand?
Speaker 17: Here?
Speaker 1: Who try my impact driver? Ah zug zug.
Speaker 16: Lucky to have friends like you, and thanks to our
Speaker 16: Paleolithic predecessors, we have the Eddie and Rocky Show. They
Speaker 16: want to hear what you have to say. Eddie and
Speaker 16: Rocky Monday afternoon at three on seven hundred WLW Gheit
Speaker 16: the podcast of their show on the iHeart app.
Speaker 18: Excuse me, I know you have a nine o'clock so
Speaker 18: I'll keep this short. I'm a business suit in the
Speaker 18: back of your closet.
Speaker 12: You wore me nearly.
Speaker 18: Every day before your office went quote casual. I used
Speaker 18: to be the CEO of your closet. Now I'm just
Speaker 18: that one intern no one ever talks to. I always
Speaker 18: thought you'd circle back with me, get granular, keep me
Speaker 18: in the pipeline. But nada, nothing. Don't you remember the
Speaker 18: McKittrick presentation. You spilled coffee on me and I still
Speaker 18: looked amazing during the breakout talkback, Q and A. So
Speaker 18: I think it's time for me to move on. I've
Speaker 18: got a great resume and I absolutely crush it in interviews. Okay,
Speaker 18: let's make this a clean break shift the paradigm. The
Speaker 18: only thing I ask is that you think outside the
Speaker 18: box here and do this. Take me to Goodwill where
Speaker 18: I can really make a difference.
Speaker 19: Your donations to Goodwill create new jobs, training programs, and
Speaker 19: education assistance for people in your community. To find your
Speaker 19: nearest donation center, go to Goodwill dot org. Donate stuff,
Speaker 19: create jobs. A message from Goodwill and the ad Council.
Speaker 1: Here forre on another Saturday morning, Dave Hatter, So that
Speaker 1: is the question when AI commits a crime. Who's to blame?
Speaker 1: Do you know?
Speaker 5: And you know I do not know, Gary jeffs. And
Speaker 5: I think it's a really interesting and important question to ask.
Speaker 5: Is this technology advances so interestingly enough? And you may
Speaker 5: have seen this out on the internet and your travels.
Speaker 5: There's been a meme. Well, I don't know it's really mean.
Speaker 5: I believe it's legit. Back in nineteen seventy nine presentation
Speaker 5: was given at IBM and wanted to slide. So this
Speaker 5: is the old school slide, Gary Jeff remember the old
Speaker 5: transparency of the everhead projector Yeah, and I'm teraphrasing here,
Speaker 5: but it's something to the effect of machines can never
Speaker 5: make management or executive decisions because they can't be held accountable.
Speaker 5: Now that's interesting because obviously in nineteen seventy nine things
Speaker 5: are very different than they are now. And you know,
Speaker 5: we've seen stories. There's this crazy story of teacherism about
Speaker 5: how people are using these generative AI tools and lose
Speaker 5: their minds and do all kinds of crazy things. So
Speaker 5: that's one potential angle. But I think that the more
Speaker 5: important angle is you may have heard the term AI
Speaker 5: augentics or agentic AI and this is the idea that
Speaker 5: I'm not just sitting behind the computer typing prompts into
Speaker 5: the AI and it's giving me information. I'm actually setting
Speaker 5: these things off to do something like, for example now.
Speaker 5: And I want to be very clear, Garry Jeff, there
Speaker 5: is no chance, at any point in the near future.
Speaker 1: Will I do something like this.
Speaker 5: But let's talk of Okay, well, I would use an
Speaker 5: AI agent and give it bank, give it access to
Speaker 5: my bank account, and let it book a flight for me,
Speaker 5: or let to try to find better deals for me
Speaker 5: online or whatever. Right, And there is absolutely no chance
Speaker 5: I would cut one of these things loose and let
Speaker 5: it have access to anything financial to act on my behalf,
Speaker 5: because we know they hallucinate. There's all kinds of stories
Speaker 5: in the press about these things going wrong, although that's
Speaker 5: much less of what you hear in the news because
Speaker 5: of the hype of how you know everything. It's going
Speaker 5: to be a utopia and no one's going to have
Speaker 5: to work or we're all going to die, whichever side
Speaker 5: of the.
Speaker 1: Store you get.
Speaker 5: And if you were allowed that to happen, and or
Speaker 5: if these things had agency. Let's say we get to
Speaker 5: a point and I think we will eventually get there
Speaker 5: where you have robots that have this capability and the
Speaker 5: robot goes bad. We've all seen the movies.
Speaker 4: Well, who's responsible for that? Is it the software writer?
Speaker 5: Is it the person that owns the robot or unleashes
Speaker 5: the augentic AI or whatever? And you know, right now
Speaker 5: there are no laws on any of this stuff. I
Speaker 5: don't know what the answer that is. But as this progresses,
Speaker 5: I think we need to start talking about this because again,
Speaker 5: who is to blame if an authentic AI were let
Speaker 5: loose to do something and let's say, for example, it
Speaker 5: opened the floodgates on a dam and you know, caused
Speaker 5: the downriver death of people or anything. Again, that's just
Speaker 5: one example that happened to screen to mind, who would
Speaker 5: be responsible for that? And I don't know what the
Speaker 5: answer is at this point. There's no law that I'm
Speaker 5: aware of that even touches on this. As fast as
Speaker 5: it's move I think it's you know, when you look
Speaker 5: at the glacial speed the Congress moves, you know, who
Speaker 5: knows where they are on something like this? I think
Speaker 5: it's a very important question.
Speaker 1: Well, and you just mentioned the glacial speed at which
Speaker 1: Congress moves it put that in correlation or comparing that
Speaker 1: to the speed at which the technology is moving. I mean,
Speaker 1: even if Congress moved at more than a snail's pace,
Speaker 1: it still couldn't keep up with the technology and where
Speaker 1: it's going and how exponentially it's growing on a day
Speaker 1: to day basis. I did have one story to relate
Speaker 1: to you, real quick, Dave, Well, I got you. I
Speaker 1: had a friend in to do some radio with me
Speaker 1: the other day on studio, and we got we sat
Speaker 1: down and we're getting ready to go on the air,
Speaker 1: and he says, oh, I better. I turned off my phone,
Speaker 1: but I better turn off my watch. And he talks
Speaker 1: to his watch, and his watch responds when he asked
Speaker 1: to turn off. I'm sorry, I can't do that, and
Speaker 1: he did it really yes, and he and he asked
Speaker 1: it again. He asked it again. He said that is
Speaker 1: not something I can do right now. And we were
Speaker 1: both just looking at each other. I said, it's two
Speaker 1: thousand and one. Yeah, I'm sorry, Dave, real quick.
Speaker 5: That's so funny you bring that up, because you know, hey,
Speaker 5: that's that's one of my favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 5: How How I to have a computer with a big
Speaker 5: red eye so creepy. But back in the day, the
Speaker 5: Windows error found. So you know, you're doing something on
Speaker 5: your Windows based computer that makes it air and it
Speaker 5: makes a noise. Yeah, for a long time I used
Speaker 5: that sound, you know, since my name is Dave, I
Speaker 5: just thought that was hilarious, so, you know, instead of
Speaker 5: the standard Windows air and I God, I'm sorry, Dave.
Speaker 5: I'm just saying I can't do that now that but
Speaker 5: that's that was funny.
Speaker 4: Then it's much cre It's really creepy.
Speaker 1: As I'm watching it happen right in front of me,
Speaker 1: the watch is telling him, no, I can't do that.
Speaker 1: When he made a simple request for the watch to
Speaker 1: turn off. It's already happening, Dave, It's already happened. Take
Speaker 1: care of good luck.
Speaker 4: Ye thank you.
Speaker 1: Seven one time for the Tom Davis Diaries, or I
Speaker 1: like to refer to these as the diary that bad
Speaker 1: man Again the aforementioned Tom Davis our cover reporter with wild, wacky,
Speaker 1: weird stories from around the world, around the country.
Speaker 20: Tom, Good Morning, Gary, Jeff. This week don't mess with
Speaker 20: two year old boys in India. But first police and
Speaker 20: Neo show Missouri picked up a couple of brothers after
Speaker 20: they got into an all out brawl in the parking
Speaker 20: lot of a Burger King. Now, what could possibly cause
Speaker 20: blood brothers to attack each other, well, a blow up doll,
Speaker 20: of course. One of the brothers pulled up to the
Speaker 20: restaurant with a blow up doll on the car, saying
Speaker 20: it was his sibling's birthday present. This enraged the other
Speaker 20: brother and they had it out in the parking lot.
Speaker 20: They were arrested for assault and resisting. In Mississippi, fossil
Speaker 20: hunters got an eye fool when Donald Hatfield was seen
Speaker 20: running around naked at the Booneville Fossil Park. His trollobyte
Speaker 20: was on full display. Cops found drugs in his car.
Speaker 20: He gave no explanation as to why he had no clothes.
Speaker 20: A guy in Texas was taunting police on Facebook saying
Speaker 20: that having a worn out is like the adult version
Speaker 20: of hide and Seek for its Eugene case got to
Speaker 20: live it up for about a week before cops won
Speaker 20: the game and found him. He had a Warren out
Speaker 20: for an outstanding drug arrest.
Speaker 1: And finally, they don't.
Speaker 20: Come much tougher than two year old boys. In India,
Speaker 20: a small child bit a venomous cobra to death after
Speaker 20: it coiled around his arms. Go Vinda Kumar fought off
Speaker 20: the three foot snake after a lunched at him while
Speaker 20: he was outside playing. He was gnawing and tearing at
Speaker 20: its scales until it finally let go and fell off
Speaker 20: and died.
Speaker 1: He was taken to the hospital and is in stable condition.
Speaker 20: Next week, Spurned woman destroys Florida home with heavy machinery.
Speaker 20: Have a great weekend, big game in Bristol, Tennessee at
Speaker 20: the Bristol Motor Speedway.
Speaker 1: Liam Yeah.
Speaker 21: The Reds look to take the series against the Braves
Speaker 21: this evening with the game at Bristol Motor Speedway. Important
Speaker 21: games were down to fifty one games left in the season.
Speaker 21: Chase Burns takes them mount for the Red Spencer Strider
Speaker 21: takes them mount for the Braves. First pitch set for
Speaker 21: seven to fifteen inside pitch because a six fifteen right
Speaker 21: here on the Home of the Reds seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 21: Lee's Cup play continues tomorrow night with the Orange and
Speaker 21: Blue as they faced Warrez at five point thirty on
Speaker 21: ESPN fifteen to thirty.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Sir Ken Curly Our Saturday morning, sidekick. You know,
Speaker 1: with this show's amazingly huge budget. You know you thought
Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert he had two hundred people working for him, right,
Speaker 1: costing CBS forty million dollars a year, or they were
Speaker 1: losing forty million dollars a year. This show has an
Speaker 1: enormous budget too. And you know, not only do we
Speaker 1: have to account for the news department, which do a
Speaker 1: remarkably adequate job at the top and bottom of the hours,
Speaker 1: but Liam Tomlinson, who not only does sports but is
Speaker 1: the producer of the program and keeps us on the ear.
Speaker 1: And of course they have to pay my six figure
Speaker 1: if you count the decimal point in the right place
Speaker 1: salary every year. But we found room in the budget
Speaker 1: for Ken. Carly and Ken welcome once again to the show.
Speaker 1: As she watched the sausage being made, is it as
Speaker 1: disgusting as a sausage factory? That's the question. You made
Speaker 1: an interesting point. You were listening on the way in
Speaker 1: as I began, as I always do on Saturday morning,
Speaker 1: with history as it relates to this particular date in
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty five, forty years ago today, you were a pilot,
Speaker 1: a commercial airlines pilot, and they had the crash of
Speaker 1: the flight one ninety one, the Delta flight in Dallas
Speaker 1: of attempting to land at Dallas or DFW International Airport,
Speaker 1: and you just kind of related to me the story
Speaker 1: of well, I.
Speaker 22: I was actually having dinner with a friend of mine
Speaker 22: in Dayton, Ohio that I had flown with commuters back
Speaker 22: in Illinois and came back to the room and saw
Speaker 22: the coverage of the accident, and it just so happened
Speaker 22: that next morning when we flew the next morning early
Speaker 22: out of Dayton to Atlanta and then on to Dallas
Speaker 22: that day, so we got to into Dallas. You saw
Speaker 22: the aftermath.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, see it was.
Speaker 22: That the mic It started all the investigation into the
Speaker 22: microburse that come out of the thunderstorms, and that really
Speaker 22: created a lot of equipment that was later put on
Speaker 22: the airplanes.
Speaker 1: But that's what caused that crass was a microbverse. Yeah.
Speaker 22: It was an L ten eleven, big, big, wide bodied aircraft.
Speaker 22: Now how many years did you fly KIM twenty six
Speaker 22: with Delda?
Speaker 1: Did you? I mean, when stuff like that happens, how
Speaker 1: do you how do you react getting in the cockpit
Speaker 1: again after an accident like that? And the terrible loss
Speaker 1: of life and knowing that you are going down with
Speaker 1: the ship, so to speak. If something like that happens,
Speaker 1: I mean, how internally, how do you deal with that? Well,
Speaker 1: I don't really think that. You don't certainly dwell on it.
Speaker 1: As most accidents, we learned from them. Try to not
Speaker 1: to let them happen again they come up with another accident.
Speaker 1: But does it give you pause before you get in
Speaker 1: the cockpit?
Speaker 5: You know what?
Speaker 22: You know what when you when you're flying in the cockpit,
Speaker 22: you're in your own little seat up there, you're working
Speaker 22: with your crew, and you really don't think about the
Speaker 22: the all the people back there.
Speaker 1: You really don't. It's it's just you're doing your job
Speaker 1: and looking out much money. Talk about the people, but
Speaker 1: think about yourself. I mean, well sure, sure, but you're
Speaker 1: in control.
Speaker 22: And I think that's what a lot of people that
Speaker 22: don't like to fly, they don't like to give up
Speaker 22: that control.
Speaker 1: Uh So you got you.
Speaker 22: Yeah, it's it's a you feel in control.
Speaker 1: I don't. It's an incredible responsibility though, And you know,
Speaker 1: and we can't think about that now. We'll we'll talk
Speaker 1: about it more. Uh maybe as time goes a time
Speaker 1: permits this morning rock and Roll Archaeology, the music professor
Speaker 1: Jim Lebarbara coming up right afternoons into another hour of
Speaker 1: the Saturday morning. It is for this Saturday Morning, August second,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five and GJ. Dubbs with in studio our
Speaker 1: Saturday morning side sidekick, Ken Carly is going to be
Speaker 1: pressed into service. Here. He's got headphones on. Usually when
Speaker 1: Ken has headphones on, it means he's taxing down the
Speaker 1: runway getting ready to take off.
Speaker 22: True, still still at times? Yes, yes, you still do
Speaker 22: fly from time to time. Yes, yeah, get out and
Speaker 22: get you just don't slip the surly bonds as they say,
Speaker 22: you don't get paid for it now. No, no, kind
Speaker 22: of like here, Yeah, what did you enjoy.
Speaker 1: Most that you can talk about on the air of
Speaker 1: being a commercial airline?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 22: Thank god we didn't have cell phones back then, right,
Speaker 22: You know what I really the people, the people he
Speaker 22: worked with, and also we laid over in a lot
Speaker 22: of different cities, some of my favorites, you know, San
Speaker 22: Antonio and even Cleveland. We had a nice place there
Speaker 22: in Cleveland, and you get to know the people. You
Speaker 22: know that that doesn't happen very often. You would say,
Speaker 22: I've found a nice place in Cleveland. Well, it's usually
Speaker 22: it's usually the people that work at the hotels. It's
Speaker 22: usually the people that work at the gates at the airports,
Speaker 22: and you just you get to know them after a while.
Speaker 22: And so you know, doing that for twenty six years,
Speaker 22: you know, and I've been retired from from the major
Speaker 22: airline for twenty years. I flew some corporate afterwards, but
Speaker 22: but yeah, it's been It was twenty years ago this fall,
Speaker 22: probably next month, twenty years ago that all the bankruptcies
Speaker 22: were happening in the airline industry, and I decided to
Speaker 22: leave with part of my pension and take my chances,
Speaker 22: you know, as long as there was still somebody left
Speaker 22: so you could get some And it turned out they
Speaker 22: ended up canceling at all.
Speaker 1: What was the biggest jet you ever piloted?
Speaker 22: I flew the seven fifty seven and seven sixty seven
Speaker 22: my last year, and I did some like New York
Speaker 22: to San Juan and Bermuda, and then also we did
Speaker 22: a lot of that. If you remember Delta Song, the
Speaker 22: Song they had the lower cost line within Delta, so
Speaker 22: the Song airplanes would go like New York to Vegas
Speaker 22: and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: So that was that was some good times. Discounted flights.
Speaker 22: Yeah, yeah, they had different service on it, different colored airplanes,
Speaker 22: but but it was all Delta Cruz.
Speaker 1: Do you usually just fly commuter jets or did you
Speaker 1: do a lot of that too?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 22: I did commuters when to get to Delda. I did
Speaker 22: that back in my hometown in Illinois for a couple
Speaker 22: of years prior to prior to joining.
Speaker 1: What's what's the biggest difference between a seven sixty seven
Speaker 1: and your average commuter jet.
Speaker 22: Well, commuter or light airplanes in general, which I flew.
Speaker 22: I was non military. I was one of the few
Speaker 22: of the proud the civilians back then. Really the difference
Speaker 22: is a high altitude. I hadn't been high altitude or
Speaker 22: or dealing with pressurization a lot of time, things like
Speaker 22: that that were just different from me because I worked
Speaker 22: in the realm of ten thousand feet in below for
Speaker 22: so many years.
Speaker 1: But well, science mic is below the weather and everyone
Speaker 1: else is below the weather unless you're flying in a
Speaker 1: seven sixty seven to thirty five thousand feet or whatever.
Speaker 22: Right, Yeah, and then I did fly some corporate so
Speaker 22: I got to go even up into the mid forties
Speaker 22: and high forties, No kidd in a gulf stream. Later on,
Speaker 22: when I worked the corporate here out of Lunkan Airport
Speaker 22: for quite a few years.
Speaker 1: Runovan and Jones were talking about well, Jones talking about Stewardess.
Speaker 22: Is well not quite politically correct anymore?
Speaker 1: Well anymore? But when did that change? Did that change
Speaker 1: in the course of you being a pilot?
Speaker 22: Think about all the time I got there. I went
Speaker 22: on the line in January of nineteen eighty, and I
Speaker 22: think things had kind of kind of changed by then.
Speaker 22: But I definitely saw a transformation in the whole arena
Speaker 22: of flying. I mean, I don't think I'd even want
Speaker 22: to be doing it now. I think it's it's the
Speaker 22: job is totally different and the people are totally different.
Speaker 22: We used to say, you don't talk about the union,
Speaker 22: or politics or religion in the cockpit, and I think
Speaker 22: that still goes as a general.
Speaker 1: Probably other things you don't talk about as a pilot
Speaker 1: in the cockpit. All right, d I did you experience
Speaker 1: the changeover in well, you know, I actually had that.
Speaker 22: Interestingly enough, I had a little brush with that when
Speaker 22: I was in college because I was I wanted a
Speaker 22: job full time flight instructing when I got out of
Speaker 22: college for until I could get the commuter job or whatever.
Speaker 22: I was told by the secretary that I was a
Speaker 22: candidate but because I was, you know, generally just white,
Speaker 22: and that they were trying to go with the affirmative
Speaker 22: action things back then. But actually kind of kind of
Speaker 22: like you talk about, she said, don't worry about it,
Speaker 22: because she says, usually when they call up and find
Speaker 22: out what we pay, you know, you'll end up with
Speaker 22: the job.
Speaker 1: So that's what I did. I ended up with the job.
Speaker 1: That's how I got this job exactly. Ken Carly or
Speaker 1: Saturday Morning sidekick Science Mike hopefully returning next week. We
Speaker 1: will pray for him, and I will ask Brother Green
Speaker 1: to do that here in just a moment. As we
Speaker 1: continue eight to write toward the cot Ice.
Speaker 13: Temperatures near eighty a beautiful weekend from start to finish.
Speaker 13: Will stay drive today and also most of tomorrow, but
Speaker 13: a stray shaw possible Sunday afternoon. Look for temperatures to
Speaker 13: stay below ninety degrees over the next nine days. From
Speaker 13: your Severe Weather station, I'm nine first one to media

Speaker 1: she's in a coma. Six months she wakes up and
Speaker 1: sees that she's no longer pregnant. Frantically, she asks for
Speaker 1: the doctor about her baby. The doctor comes in said, ma'am,
Speaker 1: don't worry. You had twins, a boy and a girl.
Speaker 1: They're both healthy. They're fine. Your brother came in and
Speaker 1: named them for you. And the woman says, how loud,
Speaker 1: Not my brother, he's an idiot. Expecting the worst, she
Speaker 1: asked the doctor, well, what it's the girl's name? The
Speaker 1: doctor says Denise. The new mother thinks that's not too bad.

Speaker 1: Also in the studio, my friend Ken Carly joining us
Speaker 1: on the ground from this incredible sports venue. We're maybe
Speaker 1: a few miles from it right now. The one and
Speaker 1: only Austin Elmore, the co host of since three sixty
Speaker 1: on ESPN, fifteen thirty Extra Innings, any numerous things just
Speaker 1: to keep busy and keep employed here at seven hundred WLWA,
Speaker 1: now joining us this morning from somewhere near the speedway.
Speaker 1: Good morning Austin, Good morning Gary, Jeff. It's a pleasure
Speaker 1: to hear your voice. And I've heard that it is
Speaker 1: going to be a record crowd. They're thinking now over
Speaker 1: ninety thousand tickets sold. Major League Baseball's kind of keeping
Speaker 1: it close to the vest. But we might be flirting
Speaker 1: with ninety five, maybe one hundred by the time first
Speaker 1: pitch happens later to well, maybe for a regular season game.
Speaker 1: But our friend Ken Carly and his wife came up
Speaker 1: with these facts. Ken, what is the record attendance for
Speaker 1: any Major League baseball game? And this is a preseason,
Speaker 1: numb preseason? Yeah.
Speaker 22: Oh, actually actually back with Boston Red Sox playing the
Speaker 22: Los Angeles Dodgers at the Coliseum in two thousand, thousand
Speaker 22: and eight, two thousand and eight. Yeah, how many one
Speaker 22: hundred and fifteen thousand, three hundred.
Speaker 1: One hundred and fifteen thousand three. So they're going to
Speaker 1: have to really start selling the tickets if they want
Speaker 1: Bristol to beat the record. And Ken, conversely, you actually
Speaker 1: have the lowest attendance for a professional a Major League
Speaker 1: baseball game.
Speaker 22: Yeah, regular season game. The lowest attendance was back in
Speaker 22: eighteen eighty two, in September, near the end of the season.
Speaker 22: I guess they weren't contenders. The Troy Trojans professional team
Speaker 22: playing the Wooster Woolsters in Worcester.
Speaker 1: Thester's in Worcester, and they say it was a bad day.
Speaker 1: Paid attendance was six.
Speaker 22: Fans had very little interest in watching the lame duck teams,
Speaker 22: and especially on the day which the Boston Globe said
Speaker 22: it was bleak, cold and windy.
Speaker 1: So those are the two ends of the spectrum. So
Speaker 1: we've got a ways to come up with one hundred
Speaker 1: and fifteen thousand, three hundred to day. Let's talk about
Speaker 1: the teams that are going to be competing there in
Speaker 1: the infield of Bristol Motor Speedway. It was suggested Austin
Speaker 1: that maybe by more than one person, that the cars
Speaker 1: should be racing at the same time the game is
Speaker 1: going on, and the players would have to dodge the
Speaker 1: traffic for fly balls. I don't know about dods.
Speaker 17: And traffic for fly balls, but I do think they
Speaker 17: should just have cars racing around the track while they play.
Speaker 1: Would that be great? Well, I mean there's got to
Speaker 1: be some health concerns for the players, you know, even
Speaker 1: going to.
Speaker 17: Even if the ball goes on to the track and
Speaker 17: then bust a windshield and the next thing, you know,
Speaker 17: all hell breaks lose.
Speaker 1: I'd be all for it. I mean, I have a
Speaker 1: hard time going to motor racing events in general. The
Speaker 1: few times I've gone, just because you are overtaken with
Speaker 1: the smell of fuel and your ears, your ears ring
Speaker 1: for hours after the race is over. I mean it
Speaker 1: just you know, there are some definite things that you
Speaker 1: need to take along with you, like oxygen and ear
Speaker 1: plugs if you're gonna go to any NASCAR event. Yes, So,
Speaker 1: I mean is this is obviously the first time in
Speaker 1: Tennessee for a Major League Baseball game. What's the biggest
Speaker 1: what's the biggest draw for you? Just the fact that
Speaker 1: it's kind of like one of those field Dreams moments,
Speaker 1: or it's just special in a way that other major
Speaker 1: league games are. What what is the appeal for an
Speaker 1: Austin know more besides work? I think that it's it's
Speaker 1: just something different.
Speaker 17: I mean, Major League Baseball has thrown a lot of
Speaker 17: different things at the wall and they're trying to see
Speaker 17: what sticks. I mean, you mentioned the Field of Dreams
Speaker 17: game in Iowa, and they're renovating.
Speaker 1: That facility right now and it's going to come back
Speaker 1: and be like an every year thing.
Speaker 17: The Little League World Series game that they play in
Speaker 17: Williamsport every year every year. They've bounced around to different countries,
Speaker 17: but they're just trying to go in different places and
Speaker 17: markets they haven't been and trying to appeal to different
Speaker 17: types of fans and spread the I guess the gospel
Speaker 17: of Major League Baseball now Bristol, Tennessee, there is going
Speaker 17: to be a ton and there are a ton of
Speaker 17: Atlanta Braves fans. I mean, the Braves fan base is
Speaker 17: among the biggest in all of sports, certainly in baseball.
Speaker 17: And so you know that kind of buds right up
Speaker 17: with Red's country. So these two teams make a lot
Speaker 17: of sense. And then you get a chance to play
Speaker 17: in a state that you've never played in before in
Speaker 17: this iconic right racetrack. It's just kind of a cool
Speaker 17: way to try to spread the game of baseball now. Honestly,
Speaker 17: when it first came out, I looked at it and
Speaker 17: I was like, I don't know if this is going
Speaker 17: to be an event that I would want to attend,
Speaker 17: just because of where the field is at in comparison
Speaker 17: to the track and the distance and the stands.
Speaker 1: Yeah, are you really here, Jeff? Are you really able
Speaker 1: to give any sitelines Austin on the.
Speaker 17: Yeah, I still have doubts if I'm going to be
Speaker 17: able to see the game all that well today. To
Speaker 17: be honest, we're out in center field, so we're going
Speaker 17: to be really far away from home plate. I don't
Speaker 17: know exactly what the angle is going to look like.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 17: At first I was like, I'm not going to go,
Speaker 17: and then all my friends are like, Hey, we're going
Speaker 17: to go. You should come, and so I started to
Speaker 17: have fomo. So I decided, all right, I'll just go.
Speaker 17: So I'm curious to see what it looks like and
Speaker 17: if it's going to exceed my expectations or meet my expectations.
Speaker 17: I don't know how great of a game it's going
Speaker 17: to be to sit in person and watch, but I
Speaker 17: do think it'll be really cool on television.
Speaker 1: So I had heard rumors, but you're confirming this morning
Speaker 1: that you are fomo. I suffer. Okay, all right, I'm
Speaker 1: just getting it straight here. I don't have that fear
Speaker 1: of missing out thing. And I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: just a matter of being older or it probably is.
Speaker 1: You know, it's like I've seen it. Oh, I don't
Speaker 1: need What are you kids doing over there? Speaking of kids,
Speaker 1: Chase Burns is starting today and it has been suggested
Speaker 1: by a friend of mine who thinks that he's Nick
Speaker 1: Crawl or Tito Francona for some reason, as many baseball
Speaker 1: fans seem to around here, but seems to think that
Speaker 1: Chase Burns would be a much better fit in the
Speaker 1: bullpen at this stage in his career, with the heat
Speaker 1: he's got and the ability he's got, you know, coming
Speaker 1: coming out as a closer. I mean, you fire a
Speaker 1: hundred mile an hour fastballs and you're only seeing each
Speaker 1: batter's only seeing you for that one at bat. He
Speaker 1: might be more effective as a closer or as a
Speaker 1: reliever than as a starter. Any thoughts on that, Austin, Well, first.
Speaker 17: Of all, whoever your friend is, is probably just as
Speaker 17: qualified to be the president of Baseball Operations as Nick
Speaker 17: krawl is, who's been there for twenty years and really
Speaker 17: hasn't done anything for the organization. But I think a
Speaker 17: lot of people would agree with you that right now,
Speaker 17: Chase Burns is where he's supposed to be, but his
Speaker 17: future could be in the bullpen, and specifically, his future
Speaker 17: this year could be in the bullpen.
Speaker 1: The thing about Chase is that he's on an innings limit.
Speaker 17: He is not going to be able to throw a
Speaker 17: full slate of innings, and the Reds are being very
Speaker 17: careful with him because of his mechanics, because of how
Speaker 17: hard he throws. And so when they went out and
Speaker 17: acquired Zach Lttel the other day in the trade deadline,
Speaker 17: part of the reason for that is you can move
Speaker 17: Nick Martinez to the bullpen and the once Hunter Green
Speaker 17: comes back, you can move Chase Burns to the bullpen
Speaker 17: number one to be able to manage his innings number
Speaker 17: two to be able to give that group a boost. Now,
Speaker 17: I don't know if they're going to turn to him
Speaker 17: and make him the closer right away. Amelio Pagon has
Speaker 17: been up and down, but for the most part, the
Speaker 17: same guy all season long, and I think they like
Speaker 17: where he's at. But you're right, that bullpen has been taxed,
Speaker 17: it's been worked a lot, and if you're able to
Speaker 17: bring in some guys that are a little bit more
Speaker 17: fresh that can have the ability to throw one hundred
Speaker 17: mile an hour out of that bullpen. They really have
Speaker 17: one guy in the bullpen right now that can do that,
Speaker 17: and that's Luis May and he just got here from
Speaker 17: Louisville the other day. So if you can have somebody
Speaker 17: like that that can just create that sort of power
Speaker 17: and that sort of speed out of the bullpen especially.
Speaker 17: You know what I always think of compare it to is,
Speaker 17: you know, if Andrew Abbott starts a game and he's
Speaker 17: maxing out on ninety two miles an hour, ninety three
Speaker 17: miles an hour, and then you bring in Chase Burns
Speaker 17: who's throwing one hundred and two. I mean, that's difficult
Speaker 17: for a team to adjust to right away. So so
Speaker 17: I do think he can be a weapon in the bullpen.
Speaker 17: I think eventually we'll see him in the bullpen if
Speaker 17: the Reds are still in it. If not, they'll probably
Speaker 17: just go ahead and shut him down and get him ready.
Speaker 1: For next year. But I think that's the conversation that
Speaker 1: they're having. We have a small sample so far, But
Speaker 1: what about the Reds pickups here at the trade deadline?
Speaker 1: What about what about Cabrian Hayes.
Speaker 17: Yeah, incredible defender, although, of course on his first night
Speaker 17: and then most people would say he's not a good hitter.
Speaker 17: And then on his first night he hit a three
Speaker 17: run home run. So that's like the most Reds thing ever.
Speaker 17: But this is a guy that the Reds have decided
Speaker 17: is going to be a part of their young core
Speaker 17: for the future. He's going to be seven eight million
Speaker 17: dollars for the rest of the decade. They feel like
Speaker 17: you can put him there at third base. He's going
Speaker 17: to be an incredible defender. He's going to help your
Speaker 17: team in that way. And they believe that Chris Valaka
Speaker 17: can work with him to get his bat a little
Speaker 17: bit more consistent. Not going to be hitting thirty homers
Speaker 17: a year, but get him a little bit more consistent,
Speaker 17: because some of his advanced metrics are that he hits
Speaker 17: the ball hard, and he hits the ball in the
Speaker 17: right spot, but he often hits it in the air
Speaker 17: right to somebody. So if the Reds can kind of
Speaker 17: even that out, they feel like they can fix him.
Speaker 17: Miguel Andahar was an outfield today acquired from the Athletics.
Speaker 17: This is a true rental. He's an an unrestricted free
Speaker 17: agent at the end of this year. But he mashes
Speaker 17: against left handed pitching, which has been a bugaboo for
Speaker 17: the Reds for the last four or five years. So
Speaker 17: that probably spells the end for somebody like Connor Joe
Speaker 17: or Will Benson or Jake Fraley, guys who have proven
Speaker 17: that they really can't hit left handed pitching. So We'll
Speaker 17: see how the roster moves shake out with that, and
Speaker 17: then Zach Lttel starter. He's kind of in the same
Speaker 17: mold of Nick Martinez, who could go to the bullpen.
Speaker 17: As if they decide to keep Chase Burns in the rotation,
Speaker 17: Zach Lttel could be the guy who goes to the bullpen.
Speaker 17: He's got plenty, plenty of career appearances out of the
Speaker 17: bullpen for Tampa in his career.
Speaker 1: He doesn't walk a lot of guys.
Speaker 17: He has given up some home runs this year, but
Speaker 17: he has been playing in a minor league park in
Speaker 17: Tampa for most of the season. But overall, I think
Speaker 17: those acquisitions at the trade deadline raised the floor of
Speaker 17: the Reds. I don't know that it really raises the
Speaker 17: ceiling all that much, but it raises the floor.
Speaker 1: You know. If I were to give it a grade,
Speaker 1: I'd probably give it a C. All right, any comments
Speaker 1: anything left to say about that marathon game on Thursday
Speaker 1: night that we we thought, okay, they they pound us
Speaker 1: for eight runs and the top of the eighth, it's
Speaker 1: a it was three to three, it's eleven to three.
Speaker 1: I was getting ready to turn the game off. Austin
Speaker 1: and and then I don't know, I was distracted. Somebody said,
Speaker 1: my wife may have said something or whatever, and so
Speaker 1: of the TV's still on and I've still got the
Speaker 1: game on and bop, oh we got we got somebody
Speaker 1: on base here in the bottom of the eighth. No
Speaker 1: big deal, there are eight runs down. This is not
Speaker 1: This game is essentially over for all intents and purposes.
Speaker 1: And then then you know, to get another hit, and
Speaker 1: then there's a home run. I said, Okay, big deal,
Speaker 1: it's eleven to six. That's the end of the comeback. No,
Speaker 1: it wasn't the end of the comeback. Obviously, to come
Speaker 1: to score eight runs after the Braves had just scored
Speaker 1: eight runs, and then to lose that game, it was exhilarating.
Speaker 1: It was frustrating. It was crushing at the end. I mean,
Speaker 1: what were your emotions as this was going on.
Speaker 17: Yeah, you know, I was at the game with my
Speaker 17: dad and I wanted to leave, to be honest, after
Speaker 17: the eighth inning. And then said the same thing to
Speaker 17: him after the first two got on in the eighth
Speaker 17: inning for the Reds. I said, if they come back,
Speaker 17: then we might have to start looking at buying World
Speaker 17: Series tickets. If they come back and win this game,
Speaker 17: and sure enough they come back to tie it, and
Speaker 17: then it just makes the loss even harder.
Speaker 1: That was a weird game.
Speaker 17: Balls had eyes, There was just weird stuff happening. I
Speaker 17: think thirty plus combined hits, a ton of runs, There
Speaker 17: was a bunch of infield hits.
Speaker 1: There were errors.
Speaker 17: It was just a strange game and it felt like
Speaker 17: the type of game that could really give the Reds
Speaker 17: some momentum if they were to win it coming out
Speaker 17: of a trade deadline, but they didn't, and I think
Speaker 17: that left a bad taste in their mouth. Obviously, they
Speaker 17: were able to quickly recover the next day with the
Speaker 17: wind before.
Speaker 1: Coming down here.
Speaker 17: But yeah, it was just one of those weird baseball
Speaker 17: games where a bunch of stuff that doesn't normally happen happened,
Speaker 17: and it was fun to watch, but it certainly had
Speaker 17: a negative impact on the club, I think, and.
Speaker 1: Real quickly as we close out. I was not a
Speaker 1: fan of this robotic ball strike thing and being able
Speaker 1: to challenge balls and strikes for the first time, I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, it's part of the human element of
Speaker 1: the game, the umpire behind the plate. But after watching
Speaker 1: this year, I tell you what, there are some damn
Speaker 1: blind umpires behind home plate. Yeah, strikes is never the same,
Speaker 1: there's no uniformity. So I'm all in favor of it. You, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm right there with you.
Speaker 17: I mean, I think the word that Moe used to
Speaker 17: describe it as unintrusive, it really doesn't take away from
Speaker 17: the game. And I think major League Baseball umpiring right
Speaker 17: now is in just a terrible, terrible spot. It feels
Speaker 17: like it's as bad as it's ever been. There inconsistencies,
Speaker 17: but the data and then when you know you have
Speaker 17: abs right there at your fingertips to use, it makes
Speaker 17: it even more frustrating for a lot of fans and
Speaker 17: players to watch. So I think it will do nothing
Speaker 17: but help the game, honestly, and it will make umpires better.
Speaker 17: And again, it's not taking away from the game in
Speaker 17: any stretch. I mean, it might take eight to ten
Speaker 17: seconds to make it make sense or to make it happen.
Speaker 17: So I don't think it's a big deal at all,
Speaker 17: and I hope that it's a big part of the
Speaker 17: future of major League Baseball.
Speaker 1: Austin Elmore, thank you for talking with us this morning.
Speaker 1: Enjoy the game. Although I have a feeling I'll have
Speaker 1: a much better spot sitting in front of the television.
Speaker 17: Yeah, I thank you will too. Thank you, And by
Speaker 17: the way, very quickly, both starting pitchers tonight grew up
Speaker 17: in the state of Tennessee. The Braves have a couple
Speaker 17: of guys from the state of Tennessee. I know the
Speaker 17: state of Tennessee means a lot to you, Gary Jeff.
Speaker 1: I think it's really.
Speaker 17: Cool that baseball is coming to Tennessee and there are
Speaker 17: all those different connections within the game, so it should
Speaker 17: be a fun time.
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. Thanks for having me. Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: When I lived in Nashville, we were Braves fans counselor
Speaker 1: how are you hey? I'm okay, Gary Jeff, how about you?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What's on the Sunday of the Saturday midday show? You know,
Speaker 1: what did anything happen this week?
Speaker 24: I'm trying to find something to talk about. Oh, with
Speaker 24: tongue planeted firmly in chic it's going to be wall
Speaker 24: to wall what happened downtown last early morning hours?
Speaker 1: They should have been playing under the big top for
Speaker 1: that tress conference with all the clowns that were on
Speaker 1: the microphone.
Speaker 24: What did any of them say of substance, Not a
Speaker 24: damn one of them.
Speaker 7: No.
Speaker 24: So the whole show is going to be that we're
Speaker 24: going to have Eric Conroy, candidate for first congressional district
Speaker 24: in Congress, going to ask him about it. I'm going
Speaker 24: to ask him what the federal response could be. FLP
Speaker 24: President Ken Kober, obviously.
Speaker 1: We want to hear what he has to say.
Speaker 24: Christopher Smitheman, former vice mayor and he was the head
Speaker 24: of the Law and Public Safety Committee. And finally Steve Gooden,
Speaker 24: he's the chair of the Charter Party. And we're going
Speaker 24: to be taking calls to people want to call in.
Speaker 1: Only three cops for the entirety of downtown after three am.
Speaker 24: Well, I think they've revised that and they're saying eleven now,
Speaker 24: which is a little bit shaky, I think.
Speaker 1: Ken Carly, thank you brother, Thanks thanf travels, and happy
Speaker 1: birthday to your mother and your father. After the show
Speaker 1: show today at six twenty eight Mama Street, if you'd
Speaker 1: like to come down and tip one back. We'd love
Speaker 1: to see you run a business and not thinking about podcasting.
Speaker 1: Think again, More Americans
