WEBVTT

1
00:00:07.599 --> 00:00:09.839
<v Speaker 1>My Bill cunning in the Great America. Welcome this great

2
00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:13.279
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday afternoon the tri State. Terrible weather's coming tomorrow evening

3
00:00:13.279 --> 00:00:16.399
<v Speaker 1>and Thursday. Stay tuned tomorrow on that's predicted we may

4
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:19.399
<v Speaker 1>have seven to eight inches of rain, which is not good,

5
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:21.760
<v Speaker 1>especially in the hollows of Kentucky, in large parts of

6
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:25.399
<v Speaker 1>Ohio and also Reds Baseball kicks off tonight about five

7
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:29.440
<v Speaker 1>point forty with Della Cruz and the torpedo bat. The

8
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:31.679
<v Speaker 1>torpedo bat means they're going to change the weight of

9
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:33.159
<v Speaker 1>the bat, take it from the tip and put it

10
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:35.399
<v Speaker 1>with a ball hits the bat about six to eight

11
00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:37.880
<v Speaker 1>inches of a spot, and he's hitting home runs like crazy,

12
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:40.479
<v Speaker 1>as is the New York Yankees. So I thought I

13
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.439
<v Speaker 1>would have on the Attorney General, we'll talk about the

14
00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:46.240
<v Speaker 1>legalities of torpedo bats. But on second hand, maybe David

15
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Yos knows nothing about torpedo bats but knows about the

16
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:52.479
<v Speaker 1>Safe Act. First of all, David Yos, Ohio Attorney General,

17
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:54.920
<v Speaker 1>you know anything about the torpedo bat?

18
00:00:56.799 --> 00:00:58.960
<v Speaker 2>No, but they sound like they ought to be illegal.

19
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Like black guns. That looks scary. Yeah, ghost guns, you

20
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 2>should have them.

21
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:08.280
<v Speaker 1>And you would have thought by this time in American history.

22
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, baseball started professionally here in eighteen sixty nine,

23
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 1>which is which is a while ago, almost one hundred

24
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:17.719
<v Speaker 1>and sixty years. And what it means is you think

25
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:21.680
<v Speaker 1>of a typical wooden baseball bat, and the weight distribution

26
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:24.480
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the bat is moved about three

27
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>inches down, creating kind of a bulge, almost like a

28
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:33.239
<v Speaker 1>snake eating a porcupine. And there's a bulge right there

29
00:01:33.239 --> 00:01:35.239
<v Speaker 1>where the rubber hits the road, where the ball hits

30
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>the bat, which causes more mass to hit the object,

31
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:41.760
<v Speaker 1>which means it goes further. So last night Della Cruz

32
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:44.439
<v Speaker 1>had seven RBI and also two home runs and a

33
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:47.159
<v Speaker 1>double almost hit for the cycle. But it ought to

34
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.640
<v Speaker 1>be illegal. But I'm shocked that people haven't figured this

35
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.159
<v Speaker 1>out before. Let's talk about something more germane to you,

36
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:55.799
<v Speaker 1>as the Attorney general. You have a great column up

37
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>on the National Review which I read constantly, and the

38
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>headline is a bad game. You claim a bad game

39
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>of legal twister won't block Ohio's Safe Act. The first sentence,

40
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 1>the State of Pella court twisted itself into knots to

41
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 1>prevent the state's law restricting medicalized gendor transition for miners

42
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.360
<v Speaker 1>and you say. In the nineteen sixties, Milton Bradley created

43
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:20.800
<v Speaker 1>a twister game, marketing It is the game that ties

44
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:24.120
<v Speaker 1>you up in knots. It's a large plastic matt adorned

45
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:27.560
<v Speaker 1>with multi colored circles, and the spinner told each consecutive

46
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>game or where the place is or arm or foot.

47
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 1>First of all, explain what the legislature did. Then explain

48
00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:37.159
<v Speaker 1>what the governor did. Then explain what the legislator did

49
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:40.120
<v Speaker 1>in reaction to that. Then explain what the appellate court did.

50
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Then explain where we are today. It's the floor is

51
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:44.919
<v Speaker 1>your mister Attorney General will explain it all.

52
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:51.319
<v Speaker 2>We'll try to make it quick. The General Assembly passed

53
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:55.039
<v Speaker 2>a common sense law. I kind of can't even believe

54
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:57.879
<v Speaker 2>we had. It's like passing the law that says you're

55
00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:01.879
<v Speaker 2>going to need to breathe. Everybody has to breathe. The

56
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:07.080
<v Speaker 2>law said no, no, men and boys and girls, sports

57
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:14.400
<v Speaker 2>and uh. Doctors aren't allowed to come in and use chemicals, drugs,

58
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.879
<v Speaker 2>puberty blockers, or surgery to permanently change somebody's gender.

59
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Why is that an issue? I mean, I'm sitting here,

60
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:27.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting older. Man, He says, run out older, We're older.

61
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:30.199
<v Speaker 1>Why is that even a thing? Why why would anyone

62
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 1>contend it? We ought to do this? Well, wait, this

63
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:35.400
<v Speaker 1>is something good. Explain to me. How how did we

64
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:35.919
<v Speaker 1>get here?

65
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:43.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, actually, there's a group of progressive doctors who kind

66
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:48.919
<v Speaker 2>of bullied everybody into something called war Path. It's a

67
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:55.479
<v Speaker 2>series of medical procedures that are supported by the transgender movement.

68
00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:01.400
<v Speaker 2>And look, it's a free country bill. If you suddenly

69
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:03.960
<v Speaker 2>decide that you want to be a girl and walk

70
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.520
<v Speaker 2>on the wild side, I got nothing to say to

71
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:10.919
<v Speaker 2>you except I'm gonna pray for you. But go ahead.

72
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:13.199
<v Speaker 2>You're an adult. You get to do whatever you want.

73
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:17.720
<v Speaker 2>But what we're talking about kids, they are protected on

74
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.240
<v Speaker 2>all kinds of things because they're judgment's not there yet.

75
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:25.319
<v Speaker 2>So they passed this law. Governor Dwine, in his wisdom,

76
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:29.439
<v Speaker 2>vetoed thing. I went in and said he thought it

77
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:33.600
<v Speaker 2>was unconstitutional. I went back and said, naw, I don't

78
00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:35.399
<v Speaker 2>think it is. And I'm the guy who has to

79
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:38.199
<v Speaker 2>go to court. I'll defend it. Please override his veto

80
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:41.399
<v Speaker 2>and they did. And we wanted a trial court. We

81
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:43.639
<v Speaker 2>had a five day trial, and you and I had

82
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:45.800
<v Speaker 2>a chance to talk about it last summer, A little

83
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:48.720
<v Speaker 2>bit real proud of my team, and they did a

84
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:52.519
<v Speaker 2>great job, brought home to win. This has been the

85
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:55.920
<v Speaker 2>law now for seven months in Ohio, eight months in Ohio,

86
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:58.800
<v Speaker 2>and just here in the last couple of weeks, the

87
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:02.920
<v Speaker 2>group of judges arned the appeal out of the trial

88
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:06.759
<v Speaker 2>and they found a brand new, novel, never thought of

89
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:13.040
<v Speaker 2>application to the Healthcare Freedom Amendment and said it's unconstitutional

90
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:17.560
<v Speaker 2>under the Ohio Constitution. Now, Bill, you're old enough to

91
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:21.000
<v Speaker 2>remember Obamacare And when it came in and we had

92
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:25.319
<v Speaker 2>something called the Healthcare Freedom Amendment here in Ohio and

93
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:28.000
<v Speaker 2>we all voted for it, and it basically said the

94
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.199
<v Speaker 2>government's not allowed to tell you what you can or

95
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:35.519
<v Speaker 2>can't do when you're buying health care and health insurance.

96
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:39.720
<v Speaker 2>It was designed to stop John Kasik from being able

97
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:44.720
<v Speaker 2>to do Obamacare here in Ohio like Mitt Romney did

98
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:54.079
<v Speaker 2>Romneycare in Massachusetts. Well, this Court of Appeals said, well,

99
00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:58.639
<v Speaker 2>that must mean that the legislature is not allowed to

100
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:04.879
<v Speaker 2>control the practice of medicine as regards to these children

101
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 2>on irreversible medical procedures. That's not what anybody thought of

102
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:14.439
<v Speaker 2>was at the time. Everybody thought it was to block Obamacare,

103
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.120
<v Speaker 2>and even the people that opposed.

104
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 3>Has said, well, it's not very good. It's not going

105
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:25.680
<v Speaker 3>to work to block Obamacare. That's a bad idea. Well

106
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:26.720
<v Speaker 3>it passed anyway.

107
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:31.839
<v Speaker 2>But nobody thought that the state of Ohio was giving

108
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.360
<v Speaker 2>up the right to regulate the practice of medicine. What

109
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.439
<v Speaker 2>we're going to do here leeches and blood letting. Now

110
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:42.680
<v Speaker 2>we can go back to frontal lobotomies because you know

111
00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:46.240
<v Speaker 2>some doctor or some parenting that that will help with

112
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:50.879
<v Speaker 2>the ADHD. Come on, nobody thought that. And so we're

113
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:54.800
<v Speaker 2>taking this to the Supreme Court, where I am confident

114
00:06:55.240 --> 00:07:00.000
<v Speaker 2>that legal logic, sanity, and common sense are going to prevail.

115
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:04.000
<v Speaker 1>So as we sit here this Tuesday afternoon that you

116
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:07.240
<v Speaker 1>say in your column in the National Review, quote last Tuesday,

117
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:11.199
<v Speaker 1>Estate Court joined the fund when the Ohio Tenth District

118
00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Court of Appeals held at Ohio's law designed to protect

119
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:20.879
<v Speaker 1>miners from often irreversible chemical gender transition violates the Ohio Constitution.

120
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:26.079
<v Speaker 1>It's right in the Ohio Constitution about gender chemical transitions

121
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>and sexual mutilations. They found it was in there, and

122
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:30.600
<v Speaker 1>so now you've got to go to the Supremes in

123
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Columbus to have them say, I don't know what I

124
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:37.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know, have them say that gender transitioning for children

125
00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:40.800
<v Speaker 1>is not in the Constitution, but the argument is that

126
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>it's against the US Constitution also, And at this point

127
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:47.000
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea where in the hell we are.

128
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:50.199
<v Speaker 1>I do know this Children's Hospital in Cincinnati and the

129
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:54.439
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland Clinic are among the best medical facilities in the world.

130
00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:58.879
<v Speaker 1>But left to their own druthers, each of them would

131
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:04.920
<v Speaker 1>participate and gender transitioning of minors of children. Am I

132
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:05.720
<v Speaker 1>correct about that?

133
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>Well? I don't want to speak for either of them,

134
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:13.199
<v Speaker 2>but there are certainly people within those institutions who have

135
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:19.800
<v Speaker 2>advocated for exactly that position. And honestly, the rest of

136
00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:24.800
<v Speaker 2>the world medical opinion is not matching that Europe started

137
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:27.000
<v Speaker 2>down this road earlier than we did here in the

138
00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:31.600
<v Speaker 2>United States, and they're pulling back. They're going, Wow, this

139
00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:36.519
<v Speaker 2>isn't such a good idea. Think about teenagers for a second.

140
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.960
<v Speaker 2>Think about it. There's a woman named Chloe Cole, and

141
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.320
<v Speaker 2>I brought her in to testify at our trial. And

142
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:47.399
<v Speaker 2>when she was going through her awkward teenage years, she

143
00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:50.080
<v Speaker 2>thought she wanted to be a boy, and so she

144
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.399
<v Speaker 2>went through these puberty blockers and the therapy and surgery

145
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.200
<v Speaker 2>and uh, you know, modified her body.

146
00:08:58.960 --> 00:08:59.120
<v Speaker 4>Well.

147
00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:01.440
<v Speaker 2>By the time she hit twenty years old, she had

148
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:05.799
<v Speaker 2>grown up, grown out of it, and she didn't want

149
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:08.799
<v Speaker 2>to be a boy. She wanted to be a wife

150
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 2>and to be a mom and have kids. But because

151
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:16.519
<v Speaker 2>the law did not protect her at that time and place,

152
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:21.120
<v Speaker 2>and these docs were convinced that they knew better, and

153
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:24.639
<v Speaker 2>because her parents were worried about her and followed the

154
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:30.879
<v Speaker 2>doctor's advice, she is a permanent monument to the idea

155
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:36.519
<v Speaker 2>that kids shouldn't be allowed to make permanent decisions in

156
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:37.799
<v Speaker 2>their teenage years.

157
00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 1>You know, mister Attorney General David Yost, about ten years ago,

158
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:45.039
<v Speaker 1>I had on a couple that had had a son

159
00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>who at that point was like twelve or thirteen that

160
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:51.840
<v Speaker 1>wanted to be a girl. And the argument was, well,

161
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.399
<v Speaker 1>my son played with dolls, was a barbie fan, wanted

162
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:00.679
<v Speaker 1>to wear dresses, et cetera. And so this couple advice

163
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:04.919
<v Speaker 1>from the experts at children's hospital, and they began a

164
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:09.080
<v Speaker 1>procedure in a process to transition that child. What do

165
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>you say to a family, Let's say you're a loving

166
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:16.840
<v Speaker 1>mother and a father and your child tells you at

167
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:19.279
<v Speaker 1>the age of twelve or thirteen or fourteen, I'm in

168
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:22.559
<v Speaker 1>my soul, my heart is in the wrong body. I

169
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:25.480
<v Speaker 1>want to switch. They go to the family doctor, and

170
00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:30.200
<v Speaker 1>the family doctor says, yep, this child is transgender. You'd

171
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:33.279
<v Speaker 1>rather have a living daughter rather than a dead son.

172
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:36.720
<v Speaker 1>And unless you allow this to happen, suicide is going

173
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:39.879
<v Speaker 1>to occur. Then the doctor refers them to a big

174
00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:44.480
<v Speaker 1>city hospital and the experts down there say, yep, this

175
00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:47.559
<v Speaker 1>child is going to be cutting themselves and they're going

176
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:50.039
<v Speaker 1>to be a kidder and they're going to commit suicide

177
00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:53.159
<v Speaker 1>unless you agree to this. And so the culture says

178
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:57.720
<v Speaker 1>do it. The family doctor says do it. The experts

179
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:01.200
<v Speaker 1>at the Cleveland clinics say do it. And then you're

180
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:03.559
<v Speaker 1>told that if you don't do it, you're a bad parent.

181
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:05.759
<v Speaker 1>If you're in California, the state will come in and

182
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:07.399
<v Speaker 1>take the child away from you if you don't allow

183
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:10.240
<v Speaker 1>it to take place. Fortunately, Ohio, in the Ina, Kentucky's

184
00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:12.679
<v Speaker 1>not there yet. Do you have any what's the argument

185
00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:16.399
<v Speaker 1>of a system where the medical community says this must happen,

186
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:19.919
<v Speaker 1>it's medically required. The family says, we want this to happen,

187
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:23.240
<v Speaker 1>and devil's advocate, who the hell are you, David used

188
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:24.159
<v Speaker 1>to tell that family.

189
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:32.279
<v Speaker 2>No, well, I'm nobody, but the elected representatives of we

190
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:38.519
<v Speaker 2>the people happen to represent the sovereign interests of Ohioans

191
00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:42.440
<v Speaker 2>and are empowered by all those Ohioans to pass laws,

192
00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:49.639
<v Speaker 2>including protecting children and including standing against the group think

193
00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:52.559
<v Speaker 2>that we're seeing right now. Again, other places in the

194
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:57.200
<v Speaker 2>world don't agree with that. And furthermore, the shibboleth, the

195
00:11:57.480 --> 00:12:03.360
<v Speaker 2>the false assertion that kids are more likely to commit

196
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:08.200
<v Speaker 2>suicide if they don't have gender transition treatment, is simply

197
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>not borne out by the facts. We had testimony to

198
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:15.639
<v Speaker 2>that effect at our trial from our own experts. So

199
00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:22.679
<v Speaker 2>this is very highly controversial. Acting to protect children is

200
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>an entirely appropriate thing for the state to do by law.

201
00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:31.240
<v Speaker 2>And you know, you start off by ask you what

202
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:34.399
<v Speaker 2>do I say to those parents? I say, I love

203
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:37.720
<v Speaker 2>my kids too. I know you love your kids. And

204
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:40.759
<v Speaker 2>this is really hard, and you're worried, maybe you're scared

205
00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:47.000
<v Speaker 2>to death, and you'll do anything, but you can't abdicate

206
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:53.960
<v Speaker 2>to the group think of something that simply not supported

207
00:12:54.000 --> 00:13:00.120
<v Speaker 2>by the evidence. This is it's just something that that

208
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:02.159
<v Speaker 2>kids ought to be protected from.

209
00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:05.039
<v Speaker 1>In fact, the government tells parents who want to do

210
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:08.519
<v Speaker 1>certain things with their children. Government tells parents all the time,

211
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:12.759
<v Speaker 1>you can't do that. That's wrong, and it's very limited.

212
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:17.480
<v Speaker 1>But for Jehovah witnesses that consider blood transfusions to be

213
00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the work of the devil, well blood transfusions should happen.

214
00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:23.720
<v Speaker 1>There are other parents who say, my kid doesn't need

215
00:13:23.799 --> 00:13:27.240
<v Speaker 1>cancer treatment because we're going to pray. And I believe

216
00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:30.639
<v Speaker 1>in prayer. I'm practicing Roman Catholic, but prayer with medical science.

217
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes the juvenile quarter step in and say, well, your

218
00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:36.600
<v Speaker 1>kid needs medical care, which is cancer treatment. And I

219
00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:39.200
<v Speaker 1>would point out that the American Medical Association, of a

220
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:42.960
<v Speaker 1>lengthy study, had one hundred and seven thousand who had transitioned,

221
00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:47.679
<v Speaker 1>and the psychiatric difficulties did not lessen upon the transition.

222
00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:52.200
<v Speaker 1>They were aggravated by the transition. It got worse later

223
00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:54.360
<v Speaker 1>on in life, it did not get better. The underlying

224
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:59.000
<v Speaker 1>problem was the psychiatric disorder that was not treated by transgenderism.

225
00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:02.200
<v Speaker 1>The trans end or hormone screwed somebody up even more.

226
00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:04.759
<v Speaker 1>In fact, there were more mental problems later on than

227
00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:08.639
<v Speaker 1>there were having done nothing. And so lastly, David Yos,

228
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General. As we sit here this a Tuesday afternoon,

229
00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:14.279
<v Speaker 1>what is the law in the state of Ohio as

230
00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:17.799
<v Speaker 1>we speak right now it's about twelve twenty pm on

231
00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday afternoon. The Capella Courts have ruled that it's unconstitutional.

232
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:23.639
<v Speaker 1>What is the status right now?

233
00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's technical, but the Safe Act is still a

234
00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:34.519
<v Speaker 2>law of the land. They have not issued their mandate,

235
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:38.519
<v Speaker 2>which is a technical word to say you've got to

236
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:42.639
<v Speaker 2>follow the decision. And so we've asked for a stay.

237
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:46.720
<v Speaker 2>If that's denied at the Appellate Court, will go to

238
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:49.879
<v Speaker 2>the Supreme Court and ask for a stay. And I

239
00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:52.679
<v Speaker 2>think we have a good argument to get it. But

240
00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:55.000
<v Speaker 2>as of today, it's still the law of the land

241
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:57.440
<v Speaker 2>as we're talking here on Tuesday afternoon.

242
00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>And lastly, you get involved in that federally. It happens

243
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.919
<v Speaker 1>all the time. We had a local Common Police Court judge.

244
00:15:04.279 --> 00:15:07.879
<v Speaker 1>There's fourteen Ohio Common Police Court judges in Hamilton County.

245
00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:09.679
<v Speaker 1>Around the state. There's got to be I don't know,

246
00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:13.559
<v Speaker 1>three or four hundred. This state court judge in Hamilton

247
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:17.519
<v Speaker 1>County issued a statewide ban about two years ago on

248
00:15:17.559 --> 00:15:22.200
<v Speaker 1>an abortion procedure or whatever, and what is your feeling

249
00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:26.759
<v Speaker 1>about local common police court judges issuing statewide bans when

250
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:28.360
<v Speaker 1>their jurisdiction is one county.

251
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:35.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, there's two questions here, and you've identified the first.

252
00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:38.720
<v Speaker 2>A judge in one county shouldn't be able to restrain

253
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:44.039
<v Speaker 2>the you have a statewide injunction. They're not a state official.

254
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:48.159
<v Speaker 2>They are elected in a county. And it's the same

255
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:51.960
<v Speaker 2>with the what we see right now with the leftist

256
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:55.519
<v Speaker 2>judges and some of the courts that are interfering with

257
00:15:55.679 --> 00:16:01.320
<v Speaker 2>the president's Article two powers. They're issuing swin junctions instead

258
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:05.080
<v Speaker 2>of limiting them to the parties that are involved. Uh,

259
00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:08.919
<v Speaker 2>And that's that's actually the better practice. I think we'll

260
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:12.879
<v Speaker 2>see some United States Supreme Court action on this in

261
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:16.960
<v Speaker 2>the months ahead. And I don't think you want me

262
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:17.919
<v Speaker 2>to get into the second one.

263
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:22.159
<v Speaker 1>No, that's much. Yeah, we are, but David Yost, Attorney General,

264
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:25.559
<v Speaker 1>keep fighting because you represent the people of Ohio.

265
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:26.120
<v Speaker 2>We will.

266
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:27.879
<v Speaker 1>And I kind of think what the I kind of

267
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:29.639
<v Speaker 1>know if this was on the ballot, I'm pretty sure

268
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:33.159
<v Speaker 1>which way this would go. But nonetheless, to find something

269
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.519
<v Speaker 1>in the constitution not present except by shuffling around a

270
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:38.120
<v Speaker 1>few of the words and letters to come up with

271
00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:41.039
<v Speaker 1>transgender rights to me is unbelievable, but it's where we

272
00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:43.320
<v Speaker 1>are today. But David Yost once again, thank you for

273
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:45.720
<v Speaker 1>coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you, mister ag

274
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:47.480
<v Speaker 1>going to be with you, God bless you. I leis

275
00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:50.639
<v Speaker 1>continue with more coming up later will be Burrough Love

276
00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:53.159
<v Speaker 1>of the Inquir the editor about certain issues. And also

277
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:56.240
<v Speaker 1>later on is more on the torpedo bat of Dela

278
00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Cruz and who's going to be the new morning team

279
00:16:58.120 --> 00:17:01.200
<v Speaker 1>starting on Monday. We could have announcement the next two

280
00:17:01.279 --> 00:17:03.759
<v Speaker 1>or three days or sooner. All the News Radio seven

281
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:10.599
<v Speaker 1>hundred WULW Michailly Cunningham, the Great American. Coming up at

282
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:12.759
<v Speaker 1>one o'clock today will be the editor of the Inquiry,

283
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Burrow Love to talk about spending your money on a

284
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:19.480
<v Speaker 1>new Heritage Bank arena and whether it should be wearing

285
00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:23.279
<v Speaker 1>the present location or maybe by TQL. Jeff Birding would

286
00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:27.000
<v Speaker 1>like it to be at TQL, and Tracy Schwegman of

287
00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:29.240
<v Speaker 1>the Woman who Rules the Banks with an iron grip,

288
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:32.319
<v Speaker 1>along with Jim Moooring at the Banks of the Holy Grail,

289
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:34.720
<v Speaker 1>will like to be where it is now so we'll

290
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:36.599
<v Speaker 1>see what happens down the road. But here's the rub

291
00:17:36.640 --> 00:17:39.480
<v Speaker 1>before I get to the issues of the day, including

292
00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:41.880
<v Speaker 1>what's going to happen on Monday at five am. Here's

293
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:46.200
<v Speaker 1>the rub that the construction where it is presently located

294
00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:51.440
<v Speaker 1>is very very difficult. It's tight, and does it work.

295
00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:53.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if it does or not. But over

296
00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:56.640
<v Speaker 1>by TQL there's plenty of free several acres of free

297
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:00.480
<v Speaker 1>land that could be built much less expensively. But whoever

298
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:03.799
<v Speaker 1>pays for the band generally calls the tune, and so

299
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:07.359
<v Speaker 1>Tracy Schwegman, who's the lady in charge of the banks,

300
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:10.279
<v Speaker 1>been a friend of mine. She's a good lady, and

301
00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:13.400
<v Speaker 1>of course Jim Mooring of Holy Grail. They have to

302
00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:16.400
<v Speaker 1>rely upon the sales tax to get it done. You

303
00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:20.359
<v Speaker 1>might recall in nineteen ninety six we voted for a

304
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:24.240
<v Speaker 1>half of percent sales tax, generating we thought sufficient money.

305
00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:27.359
<v Speaker 1>It turned out to be insufficient money, and now those

306
00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:29.319
<v Speaker 1>involved would like to use some of that money from

307
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.440
<v Speaker 1>the sales tax in order to build the Heritage Bank

308
00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:35.720
<v Speaker 1>arena and keep it going. We did not sunset the

309
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:38.559
<v Speaker 1>nineteen ninety six sales tax at all. It goes in

310
00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:42.160
<v Speaker 1>perpetuity it turned out to be completely insufficient because sales

311
00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:45.440
<v Speaker 1>in Hamilton County because the Amazon, etc. Might be going

312
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:49.079
<v Speaker 1>down not up, about the same population. And so if

313
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:52.720
<v Speaker 1>it's next to TQL with Jeff Birding lender and the

314
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:57.200
<v Speaker 1>billionaires who own the FC franchise would like it to

315
00:18:57.200 --> 00:18:59.799
<v Speaker 1>be there obviously, and they're willing going to put up

316
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:02.640
<v Speaker 1>more money than someone on the banks. You have the

317
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:05.680
<v Speaker 1>billionaires put up five hundred million for a new arena

318
00:19:05.799 --> 00:19:08.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty thousand seats, state of the art arena, along with

319
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:11.519
<v Speaker 1>maybe the Cyclones to some other team plus going on.

320
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:13.720
<v Speaker 1>It may work. So the powers that be down the

321
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:17.480
<v Speaker 1>road to make that decision. I do say this that

322
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:21.759
<v Speaker 1>my good friend and yours, Alisha Reese, wants you to

323
00:19:21.839 --> 00:19:25.200
<v Speaker 1>vote for this, yay or nay. The other two, Dinise

324
00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:28.799
<v Speaker 1>Treehouse and Stephanie Doumas, say no, we don't have to

325
00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:31.240
<v Speaker 1>go to get your vote to do this. They want

326
00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:34.920
<v Speaker 1>to rule and Alsia Reese wants to vote. If it

327
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:36.960
<v Speaker 1>goes to a vote, that's a non starter because the

328
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Bengals and Reds do not want it to go to

329
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:41.240
<v Speaker 1>a vote. If it goes to a vote, in some

330
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:44.319
<v Speaker 1>way to continue or change that, guess what you're going

331
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:47.799
<v Speaker 1>to vote no because you think billionaires don't need my help.

332
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:51.720
<v Speaker 1>That's a problem. So we'll see what happens down the road,

333
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:54.799
<v Speaker 1>and we'll talk about that with Barrel Love after one

334
00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:58.720
<v Speaker 1>o'clock today from the Inquirir. Secondly, as you know, I

335
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:01.519
<v Speaker 1>was on early and often the Trump vandwigen, especially in

336
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:04.039
<v Speaker 1>this election cycle. When I saw what was happening in

337
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:06.960
<v Speaker 1>the White House and with America, it was despicable what

338
00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:09.839
<v Speaker 1>the presidency of Joe Biden was like the presidency of

339
00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Lance Armstrong. It was a fake. It was a fraud.

340
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:14.960
<v Speaker 1>It didn't work and went on for a long time,

341
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and he finally backed out because even those around him

342
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:22.279
<v Speaker 1>knew he couldn't win. But secondly, his entire presidency was

343
00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:26.160
<v Speaker 1>a fake, a fraud, and had no relevance to our

344
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:30.880
<v Speaker 1>lives because he wasn't the president. Now the reporting's coming

345
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:34.680
<v Speaker 1>out what about six months after the election, in which

346
00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:38.720
<v Speaker 1>it appears that doctor Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and

347
00:20:39.079 --> 00:20:43.400
<v Speaker 1>White House staff members were the president. We didn't vote

348
00:20:43.400 --> 00:20:45.839
<v Speaker 1>for any of them. They attended all the meetings, all

349
00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:49.519
<v Speaker 1>the national security meetings. Hunter Biden a crack addict, Doctor

350
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden, and White House staff made all the decisions

351
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:55.839
<v Speaker 1>because the president was mentally absent, he could not perform,

352
00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:58.839
<v Speaker 1>and the media participated in the cover up greatly by

353
00:20:58.880 --> 00:21:01.400
<v Speaker 1>not reporting on it. You can only imagine if a

354
00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Republican president had the lack of mental acuity of Joe Biden,

355
00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:07.680
<v Speaker 1>what would have happened. So now the reporting's coming out

356
00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:10.119
<v Speaker 1>how bad it was inside the White House, and that

357
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:13.400
<v Speaker 1>the auto pen was being used because the President at

358
00:21:13.440 --> 00:21:16.039
<v Speaker 1>one point could not sign his name. That's how bad

359
00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:19.119
<v Speaker 1>it was. Talk about a national security problem. There it is,

360
00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:23.599
<v Speaker 1>and so we'll see down the road how this happens.

361
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:27.119
<v Speaker 1>This is percolating now because the President Donald Trump, thank

362
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:32.160
<v Speaker 1>god he's in office, has floated at the trial balloon

363
00:21:32.200 --> 00:21:38.400
<v Speaker 1>of serving a third term. And I'll say this that

364
00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the twenty second Amendment and the interactions with the troth

365
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Amendment means that that cannot happen. The term elected is

366
00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:49.359
<v Speaker 1>used in the twenty second Amendment. You can't be elected

367
00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:52.759
<v Speaker 1>the service president for more than two terms. And he's

368
00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:56.519
<v Speaker 1>been elected twice then not elected in twenty twenty, and

369
00:21:56.559 --> 00:22:00.279
<v Speaker 1>he wants to run again. Father Time is undefeated on tied,

370
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:06.200
<v Speaker 1>unscored on right now, President is pushing eighty years old.

371
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Next summer, Donald Trump, believe it or not, we'll be

372
00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:11.400
<v Speaker 1>eighty years old. By the time he leaves office. He'll

373
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:13.559
<v Speaker 1>be eighty three years old by the time he would

374
00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:16.119
<v Speaker 1>serve another term, he would leave office and be eighty

375
00:22:16.160 --> 00:22:20.559
<v Speaker 1>seven years old. And one thing I've noticed is that

376
00:22:20.920 --> 00:22:23.640
<v Speaker 1>to be truly successful, as you've heard me say many

377
00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:26.359
<v Speaker 1>times in many guys, is for this movement of the

378
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Trump supporters to be real. It can't last four years.

379
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:32.319
<v Speaker 1>If the last four years we go back to Gavin

380
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Newsom or Governor Pritzer or Kamala Harris, a God knows who,

381
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:39.359
<v Speaker 1>back and forth, back and forth, the changes will not

382
00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:43.000
<v Speaker 1>be institutionalized. In Doze nor on the southern border. There'll

383
00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:44.880
<v Speaker 1>be a sense let's make up for the last four

384
00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:49.119
<v Speaker 1>years by spending more money which is hurling America toward bankruptcy,

385
00:22:49.839 --> 00:22:53.880
<v Speaker 1>or let's open up the southern border again. The crime

386
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:56.720
<v Speaker 1>and viciousness all over our country, the Democrats have become

387
00:22:57.000 --> 00:23:01.039
<v Speaker 1>very violent. And so if we don't institution this to

388
00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:03.799
<v Speaker 1>let it go forward for another eight to twelve years

389
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:08.039
<v Speaker 1>after this term of President Trump, that we're back to

390
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:11.279
<v Speaker 1>where we were when the Biden presidency took over and

391
00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:14.400
<v Speaker 1>he was permitted to run from his basement. But they

392
00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:17.519
<v Speaker 1>get out the vote effort paid for by Jeff by

393
00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:22.200
<v Speaker 1>the owners of Amazon et cetera and Facebook, and as

394
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:24.359
<v Speaker 1>a consequence, so we didn't have a real election in

395
00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:26.839
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty. I still have a doubt about the outcome

396
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:28.960
<v Speaker 1>of that thing. How in the world did Joe Biden

397
00:23:28.960 --> 00:23:32.400
<v Speaker 1>get eighty one million votes when the most Barack Hussein

398
00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:35.799
<v Speaker 1>Obama ever got was sixty eight million. Was Biden that

399
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:39.279
<v Speaker 1>much stronger of a candidate than Barack Obama? I don't

400
00:23:39.319 --> 00:23:41.519
<v Speaker 1>think so. So I have severe doubts about the outcome

401
00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:44.759
<v Speaker 1>of that election. But what this means is is that

402
00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:49.200
<v Speaker 1>it undermines the idea that the Mega principles must be

403
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:52.400
<v Speaker 1>applied for a long period of time through different people,

404
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:55.119
<v Speaker 1>through different means. You can't have an eighty some year

405
00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:57.960
<v Speaker 1>old president wanting to hang on to power when you're

406
00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:01.319
<v Speaker 1>sitting there with JD. Vance, who he's now forty years old,

407
00:24:01.559 --> 00:24:04.720
<v Speaker 1>who believes in these principles, who's got an attractive young

408
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:07.240
<v Speaker 1>usha wife and these kids in the White House, and

409
00:24:07.279 --> 00:24:10.839
<v Speaker 1>you have to support JD Vance to be your successor

410
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:13.240
<v Speaker 1>you can't say I'm going to fight like a warrior

411
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:18.160
<v Speaker 1>poe to stay in office. The principles are what matters most,

412
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:22.279
<v Speaker 1>not the personality. And so there's things about Donald Trump's

413
00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:25.880
<v Speaker 1>personality I do not find particularly attractive, including the name

414
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:29.119
<v Speaker 1>calling and getting distracted on things that really don't matter,

415
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:32.440
<v Speaker 1>things that matter. Charles Crodhammer wrote a book called Things

416
00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:34.640
<v Speaker 1>that Matter. What a great book that was one of

417
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:39.640
<v Speaker 1>my conservative heroes. And also what it does is diminishes greatly. Jd.

418
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:43.160
<v Speaker 1>Vance makes them a little Putian and makes them small

419
00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:48.640
<v Speaker 1>in comparison, when in reality, this president, the greatest president

420
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:53.240
<v Speaker 1>of my lifetime, needs to understand that the principles he

421
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.400
<v Speaker 1>relies upon to get elected can be carried forward by

422
00:24:56.440 --> 00:25:01.759
<v Speaker 1>others other than him. That is, jd. Vance, move forward.

423
00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:04.359
<v Speaker 1>Let's do it. There's several US senators who would be

424
00:25:04.400 --> 00:25:08.440
<v Speaker 1>excellent too, move forward with the principles. And the personality

425
00:25:08.519 --> 00:25:11.400
<v Speaker 1>is one thing, the principal is quite another. So for

426
00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump to say to JD Vance, only I can

427
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.960
<v Speaker 1>do this, and you can't follow the principles I've set out, man,

428
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:22.839
<v Speaker 1>that's wrong. And this twenty second Amendment stops it in

429
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:25.119
<v Speaker 1>its tracks. You got to be elected twice. Now I

430
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:28.960
<v Speaker 1>know about angle shots. I've read the materials out of

431
00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:32.200
<v Speaker 1>the twelfth and the twenty second Amendment. The war is elected,

432
00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:35.880
<v Speaker 1>not serving as president. So that means, according to the Trumpsters,

433
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:43.359
<v Speaker 1>that JD. Vance at the convention and the summer of

434
00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:47.119
<v Speaker 1>what twenty twenty eight, the summer of twenty twenty eight,

435
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:50.640
<v Speaker 1>could be the nominee of the Republican Party. Then he

436
00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:55.839
<v Speaker 1>selects as his vice president Donald Trump. And then assuming

437
00:25:56.519 --> 00:25:59.319
<v Speaker 1>and my gosh, this looks impossible that JD. Vance would

438
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:02.240
<v Speaker 1>be elected as the president under a promise he'll step

439
00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:05.240
<v Speaker 1>down on day one and give the presidency back to

440
00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:08.279
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump. He wouldn't have been elected president, he would

441
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:11.599
<v Speaker 1>be elected vice president. Therefore, it goes around the twenty

442
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:14.759
<v Speaker 1>second Amendment, and the twelth Amendment plays into this because

443
00:26:15.079 --> 00:26:18.799
<v Speaker 1>the troth Amendment says only a person eligible, eligible to

444
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:22.400
<v Speaker 1>become the president can serve as vice president. So you

445
00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:25.440
<v Speaker 1>can't have like a twenty a twenty five year old

446
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:28.440
<v Speaker 1>serving as vice president because you've got to be thirty five.

447
00:26:28.519 --> 00:26:31.799
<v Speaker 1>You can't have someone born outside the country to be

448
00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:34.759
<v Speaker 1>a vice president because you have to be a native

449
00:26:34.799 --> 00:26:38.559
<v Speaker 1>born America. You have to be born in this country naturalized.

450
00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:41.000
<v Speaker 1>You have to be a citizen. You can't be can't

451
00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:43.559
<v Speaker 1>be an alien the one time, you can't have other things.

452
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:45.119
<v Speaker 5>And so.

453
00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I know what the president does is throw out these

454
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:53.319
<v Speaker 1>firecrackers in the fire to distract the media, let them

455
00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:55.759
<v Speaker 1>run down different paths when there's a brick. Well, but

456
00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:58.960
<v Speaker 1>I hope he understands he cares about the country as

457
00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:01.400
<v Speaker 1>much as you or I about the country. Donald Trump

458
00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:05.960
<v Speaker 1>is a true American hero. It's wonderful and for the

459
00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:11.079
<v Speaker 1>country to succeed, the principles, the mega principles of restrained government,

460
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>low taxes, shut down southern border, leed it in this

461
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:18.480
<v Speaker 1>country only those who are legally allowed to attend a

462
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:23.440
<v Speaker 1>strong military America first. Those are principles, believe it or not,

463
00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:27.079
<v Speaker 1>principles that anyone can carry forward. Now, this is a

464
00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:30.799
<v Speaker 1>unique character. Maybe I think he's the most unique person

465
00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:33.559
<v Speaker 1>ever to serve in the presidency. Look at his history

466
00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:36.319
<v Speaker 1>and what the Democrats almost did to him, put him

467
00:27:36.359 --> 00:27:38.720
<v Speaker 1>through a living hell when they didn't have to, and

468
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:41.400
<v Speaker 1>they did it for political reasons, never held to account

469
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:45.160
<v Speaker 1>of might add yet that he's got to understand that

470
00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:48.160
<v Speaker 1>at the end of this term he'll be eighty three

471
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:53.599
<v Speaker 1>years old, and the principles upon which he was elected,

472
00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:58.359
<v Speaker 1>can can be carried forward by JD. Vance and by

473
00:27:58.839 --> 00:28:02.480
<v Speaker 1>undermining JD. Van he underminds the ability to win the

474
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:05.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty eight election, which is so far off I

475
00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:07.359
<v Speaker 1>can't even think about that. So there you got it.

476
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:09.680
<v Speaker 1>I would hope he would calm that down a little

477
00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:13.440
<v Speaker 1>bit and talk about JD. Vance and he's the future.

478
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:17.079
<v Speaker 1>He will carry forward. Like Ronald Reagan gave the presidency

479
00:28:17.319 --> 00:28:20.559
<v Speaker 1>to Bush forty one, and Bush was a terrible campaigner,

480
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:23.200
<v Speaker 1>but when the president, Reagan said he's my guy, the

481
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:25.720
<v Speaker 1>country was in good shape. Happy days of your hair again.

482
00:28:25.799 --> 00:28:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Let's keep it going. I don't know what the country's

483
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:30.559
<v Speaker 1>going to look like in the summer of twenty twenty eight.

484
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you have no idea? If things are going well,

485
00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:36.680
<v Speaker 1>if the policies have worked, which I think they will,

486
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:40.480
<v Speaker 1>if America is at peace, if more manufacturing jobs are here,

487
00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:43.839
<v Speaker 1>and we've gotten rid of waste, fraud and abuse from

488
00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:45.640
<v Speaker 1>the government, this is going to be a sense of

489
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:48.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what, let's keep it going with JD. Vance.

490
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:52.720
<v Speaker 1>But if Donald Trump pushes this thing to become the

491
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:56.119
<v Speaker 1>vice president under JD Vance and then take over on

492
00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>day one, that dog's not going to hunt. That plane's

493
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:02.079
<v Speaker 1>not going to fly because the American people are going

494
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:05.200
<v Speaker 1>to say no. And then Mega goes down in flames,

495
00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:08.640
<v Speaker 1>and guess what. The country falls into a dark abyss

496
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:10.759
<v Speaker 1>from which we may not exit.

497
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Now.

498
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Secondly, another thing, Canada becoming the fifty first state? Are

499
00:29:16.359 --> 00:29:19.119
<v Speaker 1>you kidding me? Another one of those I helped firecrackers

500
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:23.720
<v Speaker 1>in the fire that amount to nothing because we don't

501
00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:27.960
<v Speaker 1>want Canada to be the fifty first state. Right. They

502
00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:31.519
<v Speaker 1>would have fifty six electoral votes, a couple more than

503
00:29:32.279 --> 00:29:36.440
<v Speaker 1>California fifty six electoral votes, and the odds of a

504
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:39.599
<v Speaker 1>Republican winning Canada are about the same odds of a

505
00:29:39.640 --> 00:29:44.079
<v Speaker 1>Republican winning California. The last one to do so was

506
00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:47.200
<v Speaker 1>Bush forty one and Reagan won it, but that's been

507
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:52.720
<v Speaker 1>thirty some years. Canada is more liberal than California. So

508
00:29:52.799 --> 00:29:56.200
<v Speaker 1>if California's submit to the statehood, which can't happen, I'll

509
00:29:56.200 --> 00:30:00.480
<v Speaker 1>explain why they have fifty six electoral votes. They would

510
00:30:00.480 --> 00:30:03.960
<v Speaker 1>have about net forty votes in the House of Representatives

511
00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:08.759
<v Speaker 1>and two US Senators, so the Senate flips to the Democrats.

512
00:30:09.160 --> 00:30:13.400
<v Speaker 1>The House of Representatives with an additional net forty more

513
00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Democrats will control that for the rest of the century.

514
00:30:16.680 --> 00:30:20.200
<v Speaker 1>And then the worst issue is fifty six electoral votes.

515
00:30:21.519 --> 00:30:24.960
<v Speaker 1>A Democrat can can lose the presidency about like thirty

516
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:28.559
<v Speaker 1>five or forty votes, but add fifty six to the total.

517
00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:31.160
<v Speaker 1>For the rest of the century, a Republican will not

518
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:35.880
<v Speaker 1>win the White House. We don't want that. And secondly,

519
00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:39.599
<v Speaker 1>it can't happen. I've looked at what happens. What has

520
00:30:39.640 --> 00:30:42.359
<v Speaker 1>to occur for a territory or for a nation of

521
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:47.400
<v Speaker 1>country to become a state. Number one first thing is

522
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:50.160
<v Speaker 1>that state of territory you must hold a plub site.

523
00:30:50.319 --> 00:30:52.079
<v Speaker 1>They have to have a vote. Do you want to

524
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:54.920
<v Speaker 1>join the United States of America? Can you conceive of

525
00:30:54.920 --> 00:30:57.680
<v Speaker 1>a circumstance in the next ten years or so where

526
00:30:57.680 --> 00:31:00.519
<v Speaker 1>the state in the nation of Canada's to vote to

527
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:03.720
<v Speaker 1>join the United States. That's not going to happen. Now.

528
00:31:03.759 --> 00:31:07.680
<v Speaker 1>If that happens, then the Congress issues enabling legislation about

529
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:11.960
<v Speaker 1>court systems and about a state constitution, all kinds of stuff.

530
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:15.119
<v Speaker 1>Then if so, if the Canadians themselves say I want

531
00:31:15.119 --> 00:31:19.200
<v Speaker 1>to be an American, which will never happen. Secondly, then

532
00:31:19.240 --> 00:31:22.640
<v Speaker 1>the Congress, six months after all these events take place,

533
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:26.000
<v Speaker 1>they have a vote, and in the Congress it takes

534
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:28.000
<v Speaker 1>two thirds of the House and two thirds of the

535
00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:32.839
<v Speaker 1>Senate to vote to accept them. That will never happen.

536
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:36.720
<v Speaker 1>So this is a fanciful idea that does nothing but

537
00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:39.720
<v Speaker 1>anger Canadians and make it more difficult to struck a

538
00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:43.559
<v Speaker 1>deal with them on tariffs. So I hope somehow this

539
00:31:43.680 --> 00:31:47.720
<v Speaker 1>is wrong. I hope that Donald Trump sees things the

540
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:51.200
<v Speaker 1>rest of us do not. That's certainly possible. He's the

541
00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:55.079
<v Speaker 1>smartest guy politically that's ever existed. To go through what

542
00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:58.400
<v Speaker 1>he went through, then to win the popular vote, win

543
00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:01.480
<v Speaker 1>the electoral College by about forty votes, to do what

544
00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:04.720
<v Speaker 1>he did is unbelievable. And the direction he's taken the

545
00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:08.079
<v Speaker 1>country is ninety five percent I agree with. But Canada

546
00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:11.559
<v Speaker 1>becoming a fifty first state will never happen. And Donald

547
00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Trump serving a third elected term will never happen unless

548
00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:18.880
<v Speaker 1>there's a constitutional amendment passed that allows it to occur,

549
00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:21.240
<v Speaker 1>which is two thirds of the House, two thirds of

550
00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:23.480
<v Speaker 1>the Senate, and three fourths of the states got a

551
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:26.960
<v Speaker 1>vote to give Trump a third term under the I

552
00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:29.319
<v Speaker 1>guess it'd be the twenty eighth Amendment. We have twenty

553
00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:32.920
<v Speaker 1>seven right now, that won't happen. I like to deal

554
00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:36.200
<v Speaker 1>in the land of reality and not fanciful ideas that

555
00:32:36.400 --> 00:32:39.599
<v Speaker 1>are untethered to reality. Canada becoming a fifty first state

556
00:32:39.640 --> 00:32:42.480
<v Speaker 1>will never happen, and Trump being elected to a third

557
00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:46.839
<v Speaker 1>term will never happen. God knows, we got enough real

558
00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:51.200
<v Speaker 1>problems to deal with. Let's continue, and I would note

559
00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:56.240
<v Speaker 1>that the March numbers are now out from legal contacts

560
00:32:56.279 --> 00:32:59.480
<v Speaker 1>on the southern border. In the month of March there

561
00:32:59.480 --> 00:33:02.640
<v Speaker 1>were seven five hundred and the month of March, which

562
00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:07.359
<v Speaker 1>was half the daily total in March of last year,

563
00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:11.079
<v Speaker 1>when Biden was still in the White House, we were

564
00:33:11.319 --> 00:33:16.160
<v Speaker 1>invaded by individuals in unconstitutional, illegal ways permitted by the

565
00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:19.799
<v Speaker 1>federal government because Joe Biden was mentally incompetent and didn't

566
00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:21.839
<v Speaker 1>know what he was doing. Think about where we are

567
00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:25.920
<v Speaker 1>today compared to that, it's been a complete change. Let's

568
00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:29.920
<v Speaker 1>continue and once again we're gonna have more announcements about

569
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:32.279
<v Speaker 1>the Morning Show. Mike McConnell I listened this morning to

570
00:33:32.359 --> 00:33:36.680
<v Speaker 1>him and John Phillips. My mind was flooded with memories

571
00:33:36.720 --> 00:33:40.240
<v Speaker 1>of John Phillips and Randy Michaels and Alan Gardner and

572
00:33:40.279 --> 00:33:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Bill Gable and Bob Trumpey and Andy Furman and Chris

573
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Collinsworth and the Truck and Bozo and so many others,

574
00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:50.160
<v Speaker 1>and Mike and Gary and Doc Wolf and me and

575
00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:53.519
<v Speaker 1>away we go. And there's nothing more constant in life

576
00:33:53.519 --> 00:33:56.279
<v Speaker 1>than change. We should spend about ten percent of our

577
00:33:56.319 --> 00:34:01.759
<v Speaker 1>time remembering yesterday, about seventy percent of our time living today,

578
00:34:02.119 --> 00:34:05.480
<v Speaker 1>and about twenty percent planning for tomorrow. So we got

579
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:08.039
<v Speaker 1>a plan for what's going to happen on Monday. And

580
00:34:08.400 --> 00:34:11.239
<v Speaker 1>Mike McConnell's had one hell of a run. Fifty years

581
00:34:11.239 --> 00:34:15.880
<v Speaker 1>in radio all told, and about forty thirty five thirty

582
00:34:15.920 --> 00:34:18.679
<v Speaker 1>eight years right here at the Big One, the home

583
00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:21.039
<v Speaker 1>of your Reds. And by the way, last night's game,

584
00:34:21.400 --> 00:34:24.519
<v Speaker 1>that's what makes radio so exciting. To have the torpedo

585
00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:27.920
<v Speaker 1>bat picked up by Dela Cruz for the first time

586
00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:30.000
<v Speaker 1>and have that kind of a game, and for the

587
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:33.480
<v Speaker 1>Reds to win fourteen to three only because the Rangers

588
00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:36.519
<v Speaker 1>kicked a field goal at the end. Three points three

589
00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:39.800
<v Speaker 1>runs is unbelievable. Five point forty tonight to get started,

590
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:51.280
<v Speaker 1>all A News Radio seven hundred WULW. Bill Cunningham, the

591
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:53.920
<v Speaker 1>great American, of course, Tonight, Reds Baseball kicks off about

592
00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:57.760
<v Speaker 1>five forty with the torpedo Bat and Dela Cruz is

593
00:34:57.800 --> 00:35:00.920
<v Speaker 1>at the forefront hitting a massive home runs a seven

594
00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:04.159
<v Speaker 1>RBI and also almost sit for the cycle again last

595
00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:06.760
<v Speaker 1>night with two home runs and the Red Legs beat

596
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:09.320
<v Speaker 1>up on the Rangers fourteen to three, which means the

597
00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:11.719
<v Speaker 1>Rangers I think kicked a field goal late. And that's

598
00:35:11.760 --> 00:35:14.199
<v Speaker 1>about it. The Reds are impregnable. Joanan you and I

599
00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:16.880
<v Speaker 1>now is the editor of The Inquir Burrow Love and Burrow,

600
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:19.239
<v Speaker 1>welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all,

601
00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:21.559
<v Speaker 1>before we talk about the half a cent stadium tas

602
00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:25.239
<v Speaker 1>not nearly as sexy as the torpedo bat. Can you

603
00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:27.880
<v Speaker 1>write a column in the Inquire about the torpedo bat

604
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:31.920
<v Speaker 1>and the impact that's going to have on the Reds.

605
00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:34.440
<v Speaker 6>I don't think I'm going to write a column, but

606
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:37.639
<v Speaker 6>we probably have about three torpedo bats stories in the

607
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:40.960
<v Speaker 6>works already, in addition to the one we had after

608
00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:44.320
<v Speaker 6>last night's game. You know, we're wondering our high school

609
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:46.000
<v Speaker 6>player is going to all of a sudden show up

610
00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:48.920
<v Speaker 6>with these things like this could be a this could.

611
00:35:48.760 --> 00:35:51.360
<v Speaker 2>Be an interesting time to be a baseball fan, you.

612
00:35:51.320 --> 00:35:53.880
<v Speaker 1>Know, I played the game through xavior and all that stuff,

613
00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:55.960
<v Speaker 1>and I guess no one had thought for one hundred

614
00:35:56.000 --> 00:35:59.280
<v Speaker 1>and fifty years about taking some of the weight and

615
00:35:59.440 --> 00:36:02.320
<v Speaker 1>size of the wouldn't bat and move it down three

616
00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:04.239
<v Speaker 1>or four inches from the end to make it look

617
00:36:04.360 --> 00:36:07.159
<v Speaker 1>like a bowling pin, and put the mass where the

618
00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:09.760
<v Speaker 1>ball hits the bat actually where it matters. Hit one

619
00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:12.039
<v Speaker 1>off the handle, off the end, nothing happens. But if

620
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:14.599
<v Speaker 1>you take the sixty eight inches where the action takes

621
00:36:14.599 --> 00:36:17.760
<v Speaker 1>place and make that little more hefty number one, it

622
00:36:17.760 --> 00:36:21.360
<v Speaker 1>helps with foul tips, which means instead of missing the

623
00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:23.639
<v Speaker 1>pitch by sixteenth of an inch, you might foul tip

624
00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:26.280
<v Speaker 1>it stay at the plate. And secondly, the ball goes further.

625
00:36:26.480 --> 00:36:28.840
<v Speaker 1>And baseball, as you may know, is a very old sport,

626
00:36:29.119 --> 00:36:31.840
<v Speaker 1>going back to eighteen sixty nine. But I would hope

627
00:36:31.880 --> 00:36:34.679
<v Speaker 1>the guy that designed this thing, this physicist, whoever he

628
00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:37.719
<v Speaker 1>is associated with the Yankees, is making money off the deal.

629
00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:39.679
<v Speaker 1>And if you think it works, it works. If you

630
00:36:39.679 --> 00:36:41.920
<v Speaker 1>don't think it doesn't work, it does. But isn't this

631
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:44.639
<v Speaker 1>also though, bad for Reds pitching, because the Reds are

632
00:36:44.679 --> 00:36:45.679
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to pitch against it.

633
00:36:46.800 --> 00:36:48.920
<v Speaker 6>I know it's well, yeah, I mean it's going to

634
00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:52.079
<v Speaker 6>be the equalizer. But I just go back to the

635
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:54.639
<v Speaker 6>late great Pete Rose. There was this great video of

636
00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:58.480
<v Speaker 6>him giving tips to kids on how the bat. And

637
00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:01.039
<v Speaker 6>I remember because I was a kid and I was

638
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:03.920
<v Speaker 6>a little leaguer and we didn't have custom bats like

639
00:37:03.960 --> 00:37:06.639
<v Speaker 6>the kids do today. The coach brought this duffel bag

640
00:37:06.960 --> 00:37:08.960
<v Speaker 6>and dumped it out, and you picked the best one

641
00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:10.239
<v Speaker 6>that wasn't cracked or whatever.

642
00:37:10.320 --> 00:37:11.440
<v Speaker 2>But he would talk.

643
00:37:11.320 --> 00:37:14.159
<v Speaker 6>About, you know, if they're pitching you in, you want

644
00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:16.039
<v Speaker 6>the fat part of the bat to hit the ball.

645
00:37:16.239 --> 00:37:19.480
<v Speaker 6>Step back. If they're pitching you outside, step forward. So

646
00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:26.119
<v Speaker 6>I don't understand it. Like I the objective has always

647
00:37:26.119 --> 00:37:27.920
<v Speaker 6>been to put the fat part of the bat on

648
00:37:28.000 --> 00:37:28.360
<v Speaker 6>the ball.

649
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:32.440
<v Speaker 1>And so yeah, anyway, why it hasn't happened, I know,

650
00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Well all of us know very little because baseball doesn't know.

651
00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:37.480
<v Speaker 1>It took up about one hundred and sixty years and

652
00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:40.599
<v Speaker 1>figure that out. But I don't understand it. But if

653
00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:42.519
<v Speaker 1>it works, it works. Now let's talk about a column.

654
00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:45.199
<v Speaker 1>You having the inquir you're the editor. If tax money

655
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:47.960
<v Speaker 1>is in play, taxpayers need to know who's behind the

656
00:37:48.000 --> 00:37:51.360
<v Speaker 1>arena push We passed this levee in nineteen ninety six,

657
00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:54.559
<v Speaker 1>and it was a half a cent increase in perpetuity

658
00:37:54.920 --> 00:37:59.400
<v Speaker 1>to build and maintain two stadiums, the Great American Ballpark,

659
00:37:59.519 --> 00:38:01.880
<v Speaker 1>I think after me at least in my mind, and

660
00:38:01.960 --> 00:38:07.079
<v Speaker 1>also paid Course Stadium. And suddenly there's entities in Cincinnati

661
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:09.760
<v Speaker 1>that want to expand that to the Heritage Bank Center.

662
00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:12.079
<v Speaker 1>Tell me what's going on with that, because and once

663
00:38:12.079 --> 00:38:13.880
<v Speaker 1>again we're talking about some serious money.

664
00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:15.639
<v Speaker 2>Serious money.

665
00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:19.599
<v Speaker 6>Well you said entities, and that's what's at the you

666
00:38:19.639 --> 00:38:22.559
<v Speaker 6>know the gist of my column. So a group came

667
00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:28.920
<v Speaker 6>out called the Hamilton County Growth Alliance and have pitched

668
00:38:28.920 --> 00:38:33.039
<v Speaker 6>this idea that some of the sales tax money that was,

669
00:38:33.519 --> 00:38:36.760
<v Speaker 6>as you mentioned, passed by voters in ninety six to

670
00:38:36.800 --> 00:38:40.079
<v Speaker 6>fund the two stadiums that we enjoy right now should

671
00:38:40.119 --> 00:38:44.639
<v Speaker 6>be used to also fund a brand new arena. There's

672
00:38:44.679 --> 00:38:48.719
<v Speaker 6>a guy well known in political circles named Jake and

673
00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:53.559
<v Speaker 6>Kid who's the head of this alliance. He's a lobbyist,

674
00:38:53.599 --> 00:38:57.679
<v Speaker 6>a political consultant. He ran John Cranley's campaign and I

675
00:38:57.719 --> 00:39:00.360
<v Speaker 6>believe worked as his chief of staff. So he's the

676
00:39:00.440 --> 00:39:04.840
<v Speaker 6>director of this alliance. The question is who's behind it,

677
00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:09.639
<v Speaker 6>who started it, who's funding it? That's the big question,

678
00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:12.360
<v Speaker 6>and he won't say. So I was beating up my

679
00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:14.599
<v Speaker 6>reporters when we first did this story. I was like,

680
00:39:14.920 --> 00:39:17.039
<v Speaker 6>you guys got to find out, you know, who's paying

681
00:39:17.079 --> 00:39:20.119
<v Speaker 6>for this? Where's the money? Follow the money? And he's

682
00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:23.039
<v Speaker 6>not saying. And he doesn't really have to say because

683
00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:25.920
<v Speaker 6>the Hamlet Gunty Growth Alliance is a five oh one

684
00:39:26.079 --> 00:39:29.559
<v Speaker 6>C four, which is different than a C three in

685
00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:32.320
<v Speaker 6>that they don't have to disclose who their donors are.

686
00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:35.079
<v Speaker 6>So that's the big question, like, who's behind it? Who

687
00:39:35.159 --> 00:39:40.039
<v Speaker 6>is behind this initiative to use some of that sales

688
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:41.480
<v Speaker 6>tax money to build a new arena?

689
00:39:41.559 --> 00:39:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Would that be? Is it legal? In other words, I'd

690
00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:47.639
<v Speaker 1>have to read the bottle language from some thirty years ago.

691
00:39:47.760 --> 00:39:51.920
<v Speaker 1>But that is specifically limited to baseball and football or

692
00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:55.400
<v Speaker 1>did it include this other arena?

693
00:39:56.239 --> 00:39:59.880
<v Speaker 6>It was specifically for a new stadium for the Reds,

694
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:01.599
<v Speaker 6>the new stadium for the Bengals.

695
00:40:01.840 --> 00:40:04.000
<v Speaker 1>So how does Heritage Bank Arena come into this deal?

696
00:40:04.039 --> 00:40:04.199
<v Speaker 4>Then?

697
00:40:05.239 --> 00:40:13.000
<v Speaker 6>Well, this group funded a survey and what they would

698
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:15.280
<v Speaker 6>like to do is eventually get this in front of voters.

699
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:19.320
<v Speaker 6>I think because their survey said that. I think they

700
00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:23.039
<v Speaker 6>surveyed four hundred people and asked, how do you prioritize

701
00:40:24.280 --> 00:40:29.000
<v Speaker 6>the need, you know, for a new arena versus upgrades

702
00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:31.760
<v Speaker 6>for the two existing stadiums, and I think it was

703
00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:35.639
<v Speaker 6>sixty seven percent said, you know, we prioritize, we think

704
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:37.280
<v Speaker 6>a new arena should be.

705
00:40:38.000 --> 00:40:42.280
<v Speaker 2>On the list ahead of now. Again the survey, Yeah,

706
00:40:42.320 --> 00:40:44.159
<v Speaker 2>four hundred people. I don't know.

707
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:47.480
<v Speaker 6>You know, I'm not questioning the survey, but I want

708
00:40:47.519 --> 00:40:49.159
<v Speaker 6>to know who paid for the survey because I made

709
00:40:49.159 --> 00:40:50.159
<v Speaker 6>the point of my column.

710
00:40:51.159 --> 00:40:52.159
<v Speaker 2>I can go online.

711
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:54.960
<v Speaker 6>I enjoy a glass of bourbon every now and then,

712
00:40:55.000 --> 00:40:58.559
<v Speaker 6>and I can go online and find studies that say,

713
00:40:58.960 --> 00:41:01.639
<v Speaker 6>you know, a glass bourbon a day, or drinking bourbon

714
00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:04.360
<v Speaker 6>and moderation is good for your health. Those are also

715
00:41:04.639 --> 00:41:11.360
<v Speaker 6>published by distilleries. So that's so, you know, I think

716
00:41:11.360 --> 00:41:13.880
<v Speaker 6>it's relevant, is the point I'm trying to make. And

717
00:41:13.960 --> 00:41:15.800
<v Speaker 6>even though it's a five oh one C four and

718
00:41:15.800 --> 00:41:18.920
<v Speaker 6>they're not legally obligated to disclose their donors, I think

719
00:41:18.920 --> 00:41:23.800
<v Speaker 6>if they're suggesting that the sales tax which we all

720
00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:27.079
<v Speaker 6>pay be used for an arena, that they should they

721
00:41:27.119 --> 00:41:29.719
<v Speaker 6>shouldn't hide behind the fible one C. Four I'm all

722
00:41:29.760 --> 00:41:33.239
<v Speaker 6>about transparency. That's you know, as editor, they inquire, we

723
00:41:33.320 --> 00:41:35.480
<v Speaker 6>fight for people's right to know, and I think this

724
00:41:35.519 --> 00:41:36.360
<v Speaker 6>is pretty relevant.

725
00:41:36.480 --> 00:41:38.440
<v Speaker 1>I would think the Banks is behind it. I think

726
00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:40.639
<v Speaker 1>Jim Mooring is a good man. I think Tracy is

727
00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:43.280
<v Speaker 1>behind it. I think those involved in the Banks were

728
00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:45.079
<v Speaker 1>likely to be there. And now I'm told by other

729
00:41:45.239 --> 00:41:47.559
<v Speaker 1>entities in town, and I'm sure you're were of this,

730
00:41:47.679 --> 00:41:51.800
<v Speaker 1>that TQL and the soccer franchise would love to have

731
00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:55.360
<v Speaker 1>that arena right next to them. In fact, you know

732
00:41:56.159 --> 00:41:59.039
<v Speaker 1>that they've done their studies. Indicator should be off river

733
00:41:59.199 --> 00:42:03.280
<v Speaker 1>and should be over there, largely privately financed, and whoever

734
00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:06.360
<v Speaker 1>pays for the band calls the tune. And so whether

735
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:08.920
<v Speaker 1>it's one place or the other, it's the final piece

736
00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:11.880
<v Speaker 1>of downtown development with the Duke counter Ju Center doing

737
00:42:11.880 --> 00:42:14.840
<v Speaker 1>what it's doing and the renaissance of downtown. Yes, we

738
00:42:14.880 --> 00:42:16.760
<v Speaker 1>need an arena where you can bring in these acts.

739
00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:21.400
<v Speaker 1>But have you also heard the TQL stadium and the

740
00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:25.960
<v Speaker 1>owners of the of the soccer franchise FC would love

741
00:42:26.039 --> 00:42:28.360
<v Speaker 1>to have that arena next to them.

742
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:32.880
<v Speaker 6>Well, I think that's an intriguing part of this story

743
00:42:33.159 --> 00:42:36.599
<v Speaker 6>in terms of you know who is actually behind the

744
00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:39.800
<v Speaker 6>Hamlety Ground County Growth Alliance. Because you know you mentioned

745
00:42:39.960 --> 00:42:41.880
<v Speaker 6>our good friend Jim Morning. I call him the Mayor

746
00:42:41.880 --> 00:42:45.159
<v Speaker 6>of the Banks, the proprietor of the Holy Grail. I

747
00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:50.800
<v Speaker 6>think he and other businesses in the Banks would definitely

748
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:54.360
<v Speaker 6>advocate for a new arena in the current area so

749
00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:59.000
<v Speaker 6>that you have year round entertainment when you know, the

750
00:42:59.039 --> 00:43:02.360
<v Speaker 6>Bengals only have what eight home games and then you

751
00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:05.280
<v Speaker 6>know the baseball season runs in the warm months. That

752
00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:10.400
<v Speaker 6>having a state of the art arena possibly bringing in

753
00:43:11.000 --> 00:43:13.440
<v Speaker 6>you know, we we lost out to Indianapolis for the

754
00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:16.920
<v Speaker 6>NCUBA basketball tournament. He wanted to go see the Sweet sixteen.

755
00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:20.519
<v Speaker 6>You were, you know, driving west on seventy four. So

756
00:43:20.599 --> 00:43:23.039
<v Speaker 6>there's all kinds of possibilities if we have a state

757
00:43:23.079 --> 00:43:26.599
<v Speaker 6>of the art arena. But yes, the master plan for

758
00:43:26.679 --> 00:43:30.880
<v Speaker 6>the development around TQL Stadium North on the west end

759
00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:38.199
<v Speaker 6>includes you know, residential other entertainment facilities, and you could

760
00:43:38.239 --> 00:43:41.960
<v Speaker 6>make an argument that that would be a nice feather

761
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:45.599
<v Speaker 6>in the cap for everybody that's concerned with FC Cincinnati.

762
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:48.880
<v Speaker 6>So interestingly, I asked Jake and Kate, I said, so

763
00:43:49.159 --> 00:43:51.159
<v Speaker 6>you won't say who they are, can you give me

764
00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:53.960
<v Speaker 6>an idea of how what.

765
00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:57.119
<v Speaker 2>Kind of support you have. Is it twenty business leads,

766
00:43:57.280 --> 00:43:59.239
<v Speaker 2>is it ten or is it one.

767
00:44:00.840 --> 00:44:03.360
<v Speaker 6>I'm not in a position to say that, so I

768
00:44:03.400 --> 00:44:05.960
<v Speaker 6>think and this is just me, Now, this is just me.

769
00:44:06.639 --> 00:44:09.519
<v Speaker 6>I think that if it was a large group of

770
00:44:09.800 --> 00:44:14.800
<v Speaker 6>business leaders, he would have no problem saying that if

771
00:44:14.840 --> 00:44:19.679
<v Speaker 6>it's one, If it's it's one person with deep pockets,

772
00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:23.320
<v Speaker 6>then he's less likely to say, you know that that

773
00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:25.719
<v Speaker 6>it's it's a small group or it's one group. So

774
00:44:25.760 --> 00:44:29.199
<v Speaker 6>that might indicate it could be people who are concerned

775
00:44:29.639 --> 00:44:32.559
<v Speaker 6>with all the development around TQL Stadium.

776
00:44:32.599 --> 00:44:34.599
<v Speaker 2>But that's just me, that's just me.

777
00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:37.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, the big boys in town. Tracy Schwegman, et cetera.

778
00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:40.679
<v Speaker 1>She wants it down on the banks, and once and

779
00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:43.880
<v Speaker 1>again if Karl Linder and that group Megan Whitman, et cetera,

780
00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:46.480
<v Speaker 1>want to pay over half the price it's going to

781
00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:48.400
<v Speaker 1>be next to the t QL Stadium. But one thing

782
00:44:48.440 --> 00:44:51.519
<v Speaker 1>you said concerns me, and that is that the people

783
00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:53.719
<v Speaker 1>may have to vote on this if there's if this

784
00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:56.679
<v Speaker 1>issue gets to the ballot in Hamilton County about sales

785
00:44:56.719 --> 00:44:59.559
<v Speaker 1>tax increases for this or that that that dog won't

786
00:44:59.599 --> 00:45:03.079
<v Speaker 1>hunt My example is at Kansas City Chiefs about a

787
00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:04.800
<v Speaker 1>year or two ago, they wanted to build a brand

788
00:45:04.840 --> 00:45:06.960
<v Speaker 1>new stadium and this is and this is at the

789
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:08.840
<v Speaker 1>highlights of Patrick Mahomes, et cetera.

790
00:45:09.159 --> 00:45:13.320
<v Speaker 6>And it was like said, no, yeah, after they won

791
00:45:13.320 --> 00:45:15.679
<v Speaker 6>the Super Bowl, they went to voters thinking this is

792
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:19.840
<v Speaker 6>going to be, you know, an easy one to pass.

793
00:45:19.880 --> 00:45:22.320
<v Speaker 2>It's just a it's just a totally.

794
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:26.119
<v Speaker 6>Different economy right now in terms of where we were

795
00:45:26.199 --> 00:45:30.480
<v Speaker 6>twenty five years ago and where we are now. These

796
00:45:31.280 --> 00:45:35.679
<v Speaker 6>stadium developments, and this is where the Hamlin County Commission,

797
00:45:35.719 --> 00:45:39.519
<v Speaker 6>I think, especially Lisa Reese is, you know, that's her position,

798
00:45:39.679 --> 00:45:43.159
<v Speaker 6>like we're not going to shoulder this, you know, pay

799
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:46.239
<v Speaker 6>ninety seven or ninety four percent of the cost of

800
00:45:46.599 --> 00:45:49.079
<v Speaker 6>these renovations as they work on the lease agreements that

801
00:45:49.119 --> 00:45:51.199
<v Speaker 6>the team is going to have to come forward and

802
00:45:51.400 --> 00:45:55.760
<v Speaker 6>or the NFL and or other municipalities, because the Bengals

803
00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:58.280
<v Speaker 6>are a driver and an economic driver, not just for

804
00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:01.960
<v Speaker 6>Hamlin County, but you know, the whole region. And so yes,

805
00:46:02.079 --> 00:46:04.480
<v Speaker 6>I think that's the last thing that Bengals would want

806
00:46:04.480 --> 00:46:07.880
<v Speaker 6>if it goes before the voters. No, we kind of

807
00:46:08.039 --> 00:46:09.880
<v Speaker 6>we kind of know where the voters are.

808
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Right now that they're billionaires. Mike Brown, according to Forbes,

809
00:46:12.960 --> 00:46:16.119
<v Speaker 1>is worth about six billion dollars, and the owners of

810
00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:19.559
<v Speaker 1>the Reds are worth billions of dollars, and God blessed

811
00:46:19.599 --> 00:46:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Karl Linder and his family and Meg Whitman, they're worth

812
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:24.559
<v Speaker 1>billions of dollars. So to go to the Tony Bender

813
00:46:24.599 --> 00:46:26.880
<v Speaker 1>types of live in Green Township and say we want

814
00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:30.079
<v Speaker 1>you to pay taxes at Macy's so that these stadium

815
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:32.199
<v Speaker 1>owners can make more money, there's a good chance that

816
00:46:32.280 --> 00:46:33.079
<v Speaker 1>dog won't hunt.

817
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:37.199
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I agree with you, like I said, it's

818
00:46:37.280 --> 00:46:42.800
<v Speaker 6>it's you know, whether you whether you believe these studies

819
00:46:42.840 --> 00:46:43.159
<v Speaker 6>are not.

820
00:46:44.920 --> 00:46:48.840
<v Speaker 2>Paul Round Stadium now pay Corp Stadium has the you know,

821
00:46:48.920 --> 00:46:51.280
<v Speaker 2>the the.

822
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:54.079
<v Speaker 6>Infamous reputation of being one of the worst stadium deals

823
00:46:54.280 --> 00:46:57.800
<v Speaker 6>in terms of dis ever. Yeah, in terms of the

824
00:46:57.920 --> 00:47:01.920
<v Speaker 6>impact on governments and taxpayers is right, and and so

825
00:47:02.719 --> 00:47:05.599
<v Speaker 6>you know that's not going to happen again, and it's

826
00:47:05.639 --> 00:47:07.960
<v Speaker 6>not to your point, it's not happening anywhere in the

827
00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:08.880
<v Speaker 6>country right now.

828
00:47:10.199 --> 00:47:11.519
<v Speaker 2>Private money needs to be.

829
00:47:11.519 --> 00:47:16.440
<v Speaker 6>Raised and and so yeah, So it's it's an interesting

830
00:47:19.159 --> 00:47:21.760
<v Speaker 6>thought twist in the saga of what are we going

831
00:47:21.840 --> 00:47:26.039
<v Speaker 6>to do with our existing stadiums to bring up the

832
00:47:26.119 --> 00:47:29.880
<v Speaker 6>idea that the sales tax should be used also to

833
00:47:29.960 --> 00:47:31.960
<v Speaker 6>fund a new arena.

834
00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:35.840
<v Speaker 2>So you know, so and which gets back to you.

835
00:47:35.719 --> 00:47:38.880
<v Speaker 6>Know, I, and I made it clear like my my

836
00:47:39.039 --> 00:47:42.360
<v Speaker 6>role as edited to inquire, you know, I play it

837
00:47:42.400 --> 00:47:44.920
<v Speaker 6>straight down the middle. We have to do everything we

838
00:47:44.960 --> 00:47:48.079
<v Speaker 6>can to be objective and balanced, and so, you know,

839
00:47:48.119 --> 00:47:50.239
<v Speaker 6>I personally think it's a great idea. We should figure

840
00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:52.880
<v Speaker 6>out how to to come up with a new arena.

841
00:47:54.280 --> 00:47:56.840
<v Speaker 6>But I'm not going to get into the political debate

842
00:47:56.880 --> 00:48:01.360
<v Speaker 6>about it. I will stand up for the taxpayer's right

843
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:04.320
<v Speaker 6>to know. You know, somebody is suggesting that these tax

844
00:48:04.400 --> 00:48:08.480
<v Speaker 6>dollars get used in that way, I would hope that

845
00:48:08.719 --> 00:48:11.840
<v Speaker 6>they would do it transparently so we can have, you know,

846
00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:14.360
<v Speaker 6>the proper debate about it and not hide behind a

847
00:48:14.440 --> 00:48:15.679
<v Speaker 6>five O one C four.

848
00:48:15.960 --> 00:48:17.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So that's where I sit.

849
00:48:18.079 --> 00:48:21.199
<v Speaker 1>Well, at the end of the day, if TQL with

850
00:48:21.320 --> 00:48:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the lenders and the whitman's and billionaires want to put

851
00:48:24.880 --> 00:48:27.679
<v Speaker 1>up half the money and on the banks, God bless him.

852
00:48:27.679 --> 00:48:30.440
<v Speaker 1>At Jim Mooring and Tracy Schwegman, they don't have an

853
00:48:30.559 --> 00:48:33.599
<v Speaker 1>extra five hundred million dollars sitting around. Someone's got to

854
00:48:33.599 --> 00:48:35.519
<v Speaker 1>pay for it. I haven't asked the Reds this, but

855
00:48:35.559 --> 00:48:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I would imagine they would not mind having Heritage Bank

856
00:48:38.039 --> 00:48:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Arena go away to give them more space for their

857
00:48:40.880 --> 00:48:43.599
<v Speaker 1>for their for their ballpark. I would imagine that's the case.

858
00:48:44.039 --> 00:48:46.280
<v Speaker 1>And but anyway, let's see what happens down the road.

859
00:48:46.320 --> 00:48:49.320
<v Speaker 1>And uh, of course, uh when uh, when you have

860
00:48:49.599 --> 00:48:53.159
<v Speaker 1>Jay kin Ko, I know him. He's a great political consultant.

861
00:48:53.159 --> 00:48:55.199
<v Speaker 1>The reason is at C four, so he doesn't have

862
00:48:55.239 --> 00:48:57.719
<v Speaker 1>to disclose. So when the inquiry asked, by the way,

863
00:48:57.760 --> 00:48:59.840
<v Speaker 1>who who, who's paying for this thing, he's not going

864
00:48:59.840 --> 00:49:02.960
<v Speaker 1>to close it. At least Jeff Birding is upfront saying

865
00:49:02.960 --> 00:49:04.440
<v Speaker 1>we want it, We're going to want to put it there,

866
00:49:04.440 --> 00:49:07.719
<v Speaker 1>and they're willing to participate. I'm willing to bet on

867
00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:09.440
<v Speaker 1>those who want to put up money into the deal,

868
00:49:09.480 --> 00:49:12.320
<v Speaker 1>of supposed to those who don't. And I know that

869
00:49:12.400 --> 00:49:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Dreehouse and dou Massa both said that this doesn't have

870
00:49:15.360 --> 00:49:18.679
<v Speaker 1>to go before the voters, and they're right that the

871
00:49:18.719 --> 00:49:21.079
<v Speaker 1>half a cent increase nineteen ninety six does not have

872
00:49:21.159 --> 00:49:23.400
<v Speaker 1>to go before the voters because they know the outcome.

873
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:26.320
<v Speaker 1>And so you know when when Reese says, you know what,

874
00:49:26.599 --> 00:49:28.320
<v Speaker 1>we want to vote on this thing. Those other two

875
00:49:28.320 --> 00:49:30.360
<v Speaker 1>are going to say no, and then where are we?

876
00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:33.599
<v Speaker 2>That is a good question.

877
00:49:33.639 --> 00:49:36.559
<v Speaker 6>I think that's you know, that's this whole, that's a

878
00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:39.679
<v Speaker 6>this is already complicated enough. Yeah, so this is, like

879
00:49:39.719 --> 00:49:43.280
<v Speaker 6>I said, this is adding another dimension. So yeah, it'll

880
00:49:43.320 --> 00:49:44.280
<v Speaker 6>be interesting for sure.

881
00:49:44.519 --> 00:49:46.599
<v Speaker 1>All Right, we got to run. But once again, Burrow Love,

882
00:49:46.719 --> 00:49:48.400
<v Speaker 1>editor of the Inquire, thanks for coming on the Bill

<v Speaker 6>Other I was hoping that was a big April Fool's

889
00:50:02.239 --> 00:50:05.679
<v Speaker 6>Day joke, but it's not. Yes, Jerry Coolidge has left

00:50:14.000 --> 00:50:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Bill.

894
00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's continue with more. One thing you don't want to

895
00:50:16.840 --> 00:50:18.880
<v Speaker 1>do is let the tax bearers decide how to spend

896
00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:21.480
<v Speaker 1>their money. You don't want to do that because you

897
00:50:21.559 --> 00:50:24.280
<v Speaker 1>know what that's going to be and maybe billionaires should

898
00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:27.400
<v Speaker 1>pay for their own playpens. Of course, that's my opinion.

899
00:50:28.039 --> 00:50:30.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's continue with more Bill Cunningham. Should I do the

954
00:53:22.920 --> 00:53:26.079
<v Speaker 1>Brady Singer, brilliant last night Willie and his Red's debut

955
00:53:26.719 --> 00:53:30.480
<v Speaker 1>seven scoreless innings, fanning eight, walking to and allowing one hit.

956
00:53:30.639 --> 00:53:34.880
<v Speaker 1>You know the story at Brady Singer. There's the story segment.

957
00:53:36.199 --> 00:53:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Can you read the headline? Yeah? Oh yeah, I saw

958
00:53:39.800 --> 00:53:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I saw this on I've seen this before where he

959
00:53:42.159 --> 00:53:44.960
<v Speaker 1>paid off his parents debt for Christmas. Yes, when he

960
00:53:45.079 --> 00:53:47.400
<v Speaker 1>was a first round pick in the MLB draft of

961
00:53:47.480 --> 00:53:50.960
<v Speaker 1>his parents like fell apart of course. Yeah. Speaking of

962
00:53:51.000 --> 00:53:55.119
<v Speaker 1>falling apart segment, Roger Bacon High School was not falling apart.

963
00:53:56.039 --> 00:53:58.679
<v Speaker 1>This story about Dones. Is that said correctly? Is the Dones?

964
00:53:58.719 --> 00:54:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Is that it like Pills high School? You know the

965
00:54:01.440 --> 00:54:04.280
<v Speaker 1>how to pronounce the name, don't? All right? We have

966
00:54:04.719 --> 00:54:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Roger Bacon Royalty here. There's another story of high schools

967
00:54:07.400 --> 00:54:11.039
<v Speaker 1>that are succeeding. And Tim tom Burke is here in

968
00:54:11.079 --> 00:54:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Brandon Spath to talk about what's happening Roger Bacon. First

969
00:54:13.960 --> 00:54:16.320
<v Speaker 1>of all, success or failure. I can recall the good

970
00:54:16.360 --> 00:54:18.760
<v Speaker 1>old days at Roger Bacon and that it was in

971
00:54:18.800 --> 00:54:21.079
<v Speaker 1>a tough section of Saint Bernard. There's no good section

972
00:54:21.119 --> 00:54:23.519
<v Speaker 1>in Saint Bernard, would you agree? It's always a tough,

973
00:54:23.599 --> 00:54:26.679
<v Speaker 1>hard working section. And Roger Bacon is going up and

974
00:54:26.719 --> 00:54:28.880
<v Speaker 1>going down, not going down. Why is that? Why is

975
00:54:28.960 --> 00:54:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Roger Bacon making it? And shall we say Doanes and

976
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:33.360
<v Speaker 1>others or not? What's the story?

977
00:54:34.079 --> 00:54:34.480
<v Speaker 5>Willie?

978
00:54:34.519 --> 00:54:38.440
<v Speaker 8>Our culture at Roger Bacon is very, very unique. We

979
00:54:38.639 --> 00:54:48.000
<v Speaker 8>have five hundred and something the verse kids and they

980
00:54:48.199 --> 00:54:52.039
<v Speaker 8>they learned, they learn the values of themselves and others,

981
00:54:52.440 --> 00:54:56.920
<v Speaker 8>and they treat themselves and others differently. So we're we

982
00:54:57.039 --> 00:54:59.880
<v Speaker 8>really believe that the interest in Roger Bacon, which is

983
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:03.920
<v Speaker 8>very strong right now, it's because of the culture and

984
00:55:03.960 --> 00:55:06.199
<v Speaker 8>because of our Franciscan carrots.

985
00:55:06.159 --> 00:55:07.880
<v Speaker 1>And Tom Burke I asked you off there, how many

986
00:55:08.079 --> 00:55:10.599
<v Speaker 1>religions you're still there? Segment is thinking about becoming a

987
00:55:10.639 --> 00:55:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Friar at some point because his body fits the mold.

988
00:55:13.760 --> 00:55:17.760
<v Speaker 8>We are very, very fortunate to have five Franciscans still

989
00:55:17.760 --> 00:55:19.119
<v Speaker 8>on staff at Roger Banks.

990
00:55:19.320 --> 00:55:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Sandals and brown outfits absolutely every day.

991
00:55:23.440 --> 00:55:26.119
<v Speaker 8>Well, the one in our office walks around in shorts,

992
00:55:26.159 --> 00:55:27.840
<v Speaker 8>but he puts his habit on.

993
00:55:27.840 --> 00:55:30.800
<v Speaker 1>At times too. He's out of the habit. He's out

994
00:55:30.840 --> 00:55:34.159
<v Speaker 1>of the habit. So you're here today because there's rich

995
00:55:34.199 --> 00:55:38.519
<v Speaker 1>and powerful forces of Roger Bacon like Vinnie aka Wayne

996
00:55:38.559 --> 00:55:40.960
<v Speaker 1>Cruci and others that want to raise, like how much

997
00:55:41.000 --> 00:55:43.079
<v Speaker 1>money to build a new wing?

998
00:55:43.280 --> 00:55:48.280
<v Speaker 8>Looking to raise ten million dollars eight million of it

999
00:55:48.320 --> 00:55:51.719
<v Speaker 8>will be going to it towards our construction of an

1000
00:55:51.719 --> 00:55:56.000
<v Speaker 8>atrium that a trium will howls all of our administrative

1001
00:55:56.039 --> 00:56:00.840
<v Speaker 8>office spaces a chapel kind of an out or reception

1002
00:56:01.039 --> 00:56:05.280
<v Speaker 8>area in a conference room, and it allows us to

1003
00:56:05.679 --> 00:56:10.800
<v Speaker 8>reclaim space in our building to build five new classrooms

1004
00:56:11.079 --> 00:56:12.639
<v Speaker 8>and allow us to expand.

1005
00:56:12.840 --> 00:56:17.159
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk about enrollment, because Catholic school enrollment generally has difficulty,

1006
00:56:17.199 --> 00:56:19.719
<v Speaker 1>but not at Roger Bacon. How many do you have now?

1007
00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:22.679
<v Speaker 1>How many did you turn down? And how much will

1008
00:56:22.719 --> 00:56:24.960
<v Speaker 1>the need be met by this new construction? Willie?

1009
00:56:25.280 --> 00:56:28.239
<v Speaker 8>We have about five hundred and forty kids at Roger

1010
00:56:28.280 --> 00:56:32.719
<v Speaker 8>Bacon right now. This past year we had about three

1011
00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:37.039
<v Speaker 8>hundred and ninety applications for one hundred and forty spots.

1012
00:56:37.519 --> 00:56:41.199
<v Speaker 8>In addition, over the summer, we had over one hundred

1013
00:56:41.239 --> 00:56:46.079
<v Speaker 8>and ninety applications for people to transfer into Roger Bacon

1014
00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:49.760
<v Speaker 8>from other private and public high schools.

1015
00:56:49.800 --> 00:56:50.840
<v Speaker 1>They wanted to come to Roger.

1016
00:56:51.000 --> 00:56:53.400
<v Speaker 8>They wanted to come to Roger Bacon, and we were

1017
00:56:53.519 --> 00:56:58.199
<v Speaker 8>able to take seven seven seven how many out of

1018
00:56:58.239 --> 00:56:59.599
<v Speaker 8>one hundred and ninety five?

1019
00:57:00.199 --> 00:57:02.159
<v Speaker 1>Man, you would not be one of the seven? No way?

1020
00:57:02.920 --> 00:57:03.119
<v Speaker 5>Why?

1021
00:57:03.800 --> 00:57:04.199
<v Speaker 1>Why?

1022
00:57:04.400 --> 00:57:04.639
<v Speaker 2>Well?

1023
00:57:05.079 --> 00:57:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Why is?

1024
00:57:06.440 --> 00:57:11.679
<v Speaker 8>We're a very very good value. Our education and academics

1025
00:57:11.760 --> 00:57:15.519
<v Speaker 8>is good. But again, when kids come to Roger Bacon,

1026
00:57:15.559 --> 00:57:18.239
<v Speaker 8>the first thing that they're told is you hear value.

1027
00:57:18.320 --> 00:57:20.840
<v Speaker 8>It doesn't make a difference where you come from, what

1028
00:57:21.000 --> 00:57:26.119
<v Speaker 8>color you are, what your parents do, what you drive.

1029
00:57:26.800 --> 00:57:27.880
<v Speaker 1>You have value.

1030
00:57:28.360 --> 00:57:32.559
<v Speaker 8>And then we reinforce that throughout their period of time

1031
00:57:32.639 --> 00:57:37.079
<v Speaker 8>at Roger Bacon and they grow, they develop, they become confident,

1032
00:57:37.119 --> 00:57:41.400
<v Speaker 8>in themselves and they become good, great Americans.

1033
00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:43.079
<v Speaker 1>What are other high schools doing wrong?

1034
00:57:44.840 --> 00:57:47.440
<v Speaker 8>I don't think other high schools are doing things wrong.

1035
00:57:48.320 --> 00:57:50.639
<v Speaker 8>We're just doing something very very different.

1036
00:57:50.920 --> 00:57:55.199
<v Speaker 1>And Mother's milk of creation and Brandon Spaith expind you're

1037
00:57:55.239 --> 00:57:57.360
<v Speaker 1>in charge of development. You shake down all the Roger

1038
00:57:57.400 --> 00:58:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Bacon faithful, including Buddy Lrose, etc. That's correct. What is

1039
00:58:00.960 --> 00:58:02.000
<v Speaker 1>your role of Roger Bacon?

1040
00:58:02.039 --> 00:58:04.320
<v Speaker 4>If anything, I'm our director of advancement, or as I

1041
00:58:04.440 --> 00:58:07.360
<v Speaker 4>so put it, I'm a professional beggar essentially.

1042
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Beg for a living. Yeah, I thank you guys out

1043
00:58:08.920 --> 00:58:10.360
<v Speaker 1>in the Interstate Highway now and then.

1044
00:58:10.840 --> 00:58:12.400
<v Speaker 9>Well, hopefully we reached this goal, then we won't have

1045
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:13.039
<v Speaker 9>to beg any.

1046
00:58:13.039 --> 00:58:15.119
<v Speaker 1>No more begging. And so the goal is how much

1047
00:58:15.159 --> 00:58:17.840
<v Speaker 1>ten million, and you collected about sixty percent of it.

1048
00:58:17.920 --> 00:58:20.199
<v Speaker 4>The overall goal is ten million dollars, eight million for

1049
00:58:20.239 --> 00:58:23.559
<v Speaker 4>the atrium, two million to endow student opportunities. We have

1050
00:58:23.760 --> 00:58:25.960
<v Speaker 4>just reached six million dollars, so we're sixty percent of

1051
00:58:26.000 --> 00:58:26.400
<v Speaker 4>the way there.

1052
00:58:26.400 --> 00:58:27.480
<v Speaker 9>I'm very happy of that is.

1053
00:58:27.480 --> 00:58:30.360
<v Speaker 1>A dioceinsan schoolers that stand alone kind of like you

1054
00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:31.920
<v Speaker 1>know where Franciscans School.

1055
00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:37.920
<v Speaker 8>We're owned by the Franciscans the Province of right, we're not.

1056
00:58:38.639 --> 00:58:41.440
<v Speaker 8>We we try to follow some of the things that

1057
00:58:41.480 --> 00:58:47.760
<v Speaker 8>the archdiocese does, but we're actually owned by the Province

1058
00:58:47.800 --> 00:58:50.239
<v Speaker 8>of our Lady of Guadalupe.

1059
00:58:49.719 --> 00:58:53.039
<v Speaker 1>All right and so and Catholic School. Is it is

1060
00:58:53.079 --> 00:58:55.440
<v Speaker 1>a constant issue to keep raising money for one thing

1061
00:58:55.480 --> 00:58:58.679
<v Speaker 1>or another. Is how difficult is your job in this environment?

1062
00:58:58.719 --> 00:59:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Many people the stock markets go down, people say it's

1063
00:59:01.360 --> 00:59:04.000
<v Speaker 1>bad economic times, Wayne Crutch, he tells me it's the

1064
00:59:04.039 --> 00:59:07.079
<v Speaker 1>best of all times. Depends what you How difficult is

1065
00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:07.960
<v Speaker 1>it raised that money?

1066
00:59:08.639 --> 00:59:09.480
<v Speaker 9>I mean, nothing's easy.

1067
00:59:09.480 --> 00:59:12.519
<v Speaker 4>But we have extremely generous alumni in supporting base. So

1068
00:59:12.960 --> 00:59:15.440
<v Speaker 4>we've met over this process. We've been fundraising for about

1069
00:59:15.480 --> 00:59:19.320
<v Speaker 4>a year. We've met some truly remarkable people for this campaign. Again,

1070
00:59:19.400 --> 00:59:22.360
<v Speaker 4>this campaign as we head into our hundredth anniversary in

1071
00:59:22.400 --> 00:59:25.360
<v Speaker 4>twenty seven to twenty eight, it kind of celebrates that

1072
00:59:25.360 --> 00:59:27.599
<v Speaker 4>first one hundred years but also lays the foundation for

1073
00:59:27.599 --> 00:59:28.559
<v Speaker 4>the next one hundred years.

1074
00:59:28.559 --> 00:59:29.679
<v Speaker 1>Are you optimistic?

1075
00:59:29.960 --> 00:59:31.159
<v Speaker 9>Optimistic? Absolutely?

1076
00:59:31.599 --> 00:59:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Man?

1077
00:59:31.760 --> 00:59:35.159
<v Speaker 1>Please continue with sports. Well, it looks like the game too.

1078
00:59:35.159 --> 00:59:38.400
<v Speaker 1>It tonight that the Reds and Rangers they will have

1079
00:59:38.599 --> 00:59:42.599
<v Speaker 1>Nathan Valdi up against Carson Spires. Coverage begins at five

1080
00:59:42.599 --> 00:59:45.920
<v Speaker 1>point forty Sports Talk Arnell Carriers, Inside Pitch, then the

1081
00:59:46.039 --> 00:59:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Kelsey Chevrolet Extra Inning Show after the game. Andrew Abbott,

1082
00:59:50.519 --> 00:59:53.679
<v Speaker 1>what will start a rehab assignment tonight of at least

1083
00:59:53.679 --> 00:59:57.480
<v Speaker 1>a couple of starts tonight? Game one for him with

1084
00:59:57.519 --> 00:59:59.239
<v Speaker 1>the Louisville Bats. Don't need him?

1085
00:59:59.320 --> 00:59:59.559
<v Speaker 2>Right?

1086
00:59:59.719 --> 01:00:02.639
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, we do need them, I would think, so,

1087
01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>we'll see. Pitching's been pretty good this year. Of course,

1088
01:00:05.280 --> 01:00:10.119
<v Speaker 1>they traded Stuart Fairchild yesterday to the Braves. That's because

1089
01:00:10.199 --> 01:00:13.639
<v Speaker 1>outfielder at jer Rickson, Profar of the Braves, has been

1090
01:00:13.639 --> 01:00:18.599
<v Speaker 1>suspended eighty games by Baseball for violating the league's peed Police.

1091
01:00:18.679 --> 01:00:21.360
<v Speaker 1>A little bit of juicing going on segment correct. Don't

1092
01:00:21.400 --> 01:00:24.400
<v Speaker 1>like that first round of the Crown Tournament in Vegas

1093
01:00:25.199 --> 01:00:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Bearcats and Blue Demons today at two point thirty on

1094
01:00:28.079 --> 01:00:31.159
<v Speaker 1>ESPN fifteen thirty, Tom Burke, you know anything about this

1095
01:00:31.440 --> 01:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Crown Tournament Las Vegas.

1096
01:00:33.119 --> 01:00:37.079
<v Speaker 8>I know nothing about the Crown Tournament, man, I'm not interested.

1097
01:00:37.800 --> 01:00:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Please continue that. Of course, at three o'clock at the

1098
01:00:40.000 --> 01:00:44.039
<v Speaker 1>Centas Center, it all happens. It's amazing how that both

1099
01:00:44.119 --> 01:00:47.039
<v Speaker 1>of these gold take the time. Why would Xavier set

1100
01:00:47.079 --> 01:00:49.239
<v Speaker 1>this major announcement at the tip off of the UC

1101
01:00:49.440 --> 01:00:53.639
<v Speaker 1>game is that it is that serendipitous. Wayne Cruchi knows.

1102
01:00:53.679 --> 01:00:57.079
<v Speaker 1>But right now, if Rich Betino said, I'm sorry, media,

1103
01:00:57.079 --> 01:00:58.519
<v Speaker 1>I got to go back into the locker room and

1104
01:00:58.519 --> 01:01:03.360
<v Speaker 1>meet my guys. Who would he go meet? Uh, probably

1105
01:01:03.360 --> 01:01:06.960
<v Speaker 1>be in an empty room. Nobody saving. And there's a

1106
01:01:07.000 --> 01:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of teams I got Indiana doesn't have any plays

1107
01:01:09.079 --> 01:01:12.440
<v Speaker 1>our team. No, what do you do? I mean, how

1108
01:01:12.440 --> 01:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>many is going to be under Bearcats after the day? None?

1109
01:01:15.920 --> 01:01:18.960
<v Speaker 1>If they could be, they're all gone. Yeah, hopefully rich

1110

1111
01:01:21.480 --> 01:01:24.000
<v Speaker 1>like to be growing up in this day and age

1112
01:01:24.119 --> 01:01:27.320
<v Speaker 1>versus yes, the uh yes, the no money b C.

1113
01:01:27.519 --> 01:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>But when you grew up and went from house, would

1114
01:01:29.800 --> 01:01:33.159

1115
01:01:33.280 --> 01:01:36.719
<v Speaker 1>my basketball laundry money. Yes, fifteen dollars. Now it's a

1116
01:01:36.840 --> 01:01:38.760
<v Speaker 1>million dollars. Let's just start.

1117
01:01:38.960 --> 01:01:39.119

<v Speaker 1>does the tush push happen in high school?

1145
01:02:55.760 --> 01:02:56.840
<v Speaker 9>I think it work.

1146
01:02:57.440 --> 01:03:00.800
<v Speaker 8>It works, It definitely works. But I don't think it's

01:03:00.840 --> 01:03:03.199
<v Speaker 8>in high school yet. Do you schedule Deer Park High

1160
01:03:42.840 --> 01:03:45.360
<v Speaker 1>just in case, because they don't want any unemployment in

1161

1162
01:03:48.519 --> 01:03:50.679

1225
01:07:03.679 --> 01:07:07.159
<v Speaker 8>I wasn't very smart. I wasn't a good student, and

1226
01:07:07.199 --> 01:07:11.159
<v Speaker 8>I wasn't a good kid. But he learned discipline, discipline,

1227
01:07:11.199 --> 01:07:15.280
<v Speaker 8>and he learned problem solving from the Franciscans.

1228
01:07:14.440 --> 01:07:17.119
<v Speaker 1>And loved it. Brandon once again. The website, what is

01:07:27.800 --> 01:07:28.039
<v Speaker 1>Tom.

1236
01:07:28.119 --> 01:07:30.320

1237
01:07:30.360 --> 01:07:32.559
<v Speaker 4>How nearly a third of our kids live at Povery Blow.

<v Speaker 2>All I stood to be with you, Bill, see you later.

1257
01:08:22.840 --> 01:08:25.039
<v Speaker 1>As Governor Dowan when was mad at me on news

1258
01:08:25.159 --> 01:08:40.840
<v Speaker 1>radio seven hundred WLW, I believe cunning him the great

1259
01:08:40.840 --> 01:08:43.079
<v Speaker 1>American coming up from bottom of this hour segment and

1260
01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:45.800
<v Speaker 1>I are going to discuss certain things about the direction

1261
01:08:45.880 --> 01:08:48.720
<v Speaker 1>of the morning show to be determined. And as you

1262
01:08:48.760 --> 01:08:53.039
<v Speaker 1>may know, Mike McConnell on my Mount Rushmore of great

1263
01:08:53.039 --> 01:08:55.600
<v Speaker 1>ones here at the Big One in the past fifty years,

1264
01:08:55.720 --> 01:08:58.520
<v Speaker 1>is retiring with the thanks of a greatful nation. Uh.

1265
01:08:58.600 --> 01:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm blessed to walk and work among giants Gary Burbank

1266
01:09:02.279 --> 01:09:06.319
<v Speaker 1>and Jim Scott and of course Mike McConnell and me.

1267
01:09:07.119 --> 01:09:10.039
<v Speaker 1>And I've said before and many times, it's good to

1268
01:09:10.159 --> 01:09:13.239
<v Speaker 1>remember the past, got to live today and plan for tomorrow.

1269
01:09:13.439 --> 01:09:15.359
<v Speaker 1>But this is interesting to talk about all the things

1270
01:09:15.399 --> 01:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>that went on before, but people don't. You can't change

1271
01:09:19.039 --> 01:09:21.920
<v Speaker 1>one iota, one breath of history, but you can change

1272
01:09:21.920 --> 01:09:25.319
<v Speaker 1>what's happening now, what's going on tomorrow. And this station

1273
01:09:25.479 --> 01:09:28.439
<v Speaker 1>now has more listeners than we've ever had, and it's

1274
01:09:28.439 --> 01:09:30.880
<v Speaker 1>because maybe it's because we got rid of all the competition.

1275
01:09:31.279 --> 01:09:33.520
<v Speaker 1>That's a different story. But we tend to stay in

1276
01:09:33.560 --> 01:09:36.680
<v Speaker 1>touch with you, a member of our great community, You

1277
01:09:36.720 --> 01:09:39.760
<v Speaker 1>and I together and provide a way of being your friend,

1278
01:09:39.800 --> 01:09:44.520
<v Speaker 1>your pal during lonely times and celebratory times and events

1279
01:09:44.560 --> 01:09:48.960
<v Speaker 1>that mark history, whether it's the Western Southern WEBN fireworks

1280
01:09:49.199 --> 01:09:51.880
<v Speaker 1>or Red's opening Day or the Cincinnati Open. There's so

1281
01:09:51.960 --> 01:09:56.199
<v Speaker 1>many great events happening. The Flying Pig Marathon, which started

1282
01:09:56.439 --> 01:09:59.800
<v Speaker 1>on a napkin in Bermuda with a guy named Bob Coughlin.

1283
01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:03.560
<v Speaker 1>But that point I was operating pay Corps and thought, Okay,

1284
01:10:03.600 --> 01:10:06.600
<v Speaker 1>can we make a marathon work in the city of

1285
01:10:06.640 --> 01:10:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Cincinnati with the hills, et cetera. And all of a sudden,

1286
01:10:09.880 --> 01:10:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the rest is history. It's the best part of the

1287
01:10:12.439 --> 01:10:14.800
<v Speaker 1>greatest country in the world is to live in this

1288
01:10:14.880 --> 01:10:17.039
<v Speaker 1>part of the country because of the hills of Kentucky

1289
01:10:17.359 --> 01:10:20.319
<v Speaker 1>goes to the greatness of Ohio and Indiana. I sat

1290
01:10:20.359 --> 01:10:23.000
<v Speaker 1>in an event put together by Alvin Rohrer a week

1291
01:10:23.079 --> 01:10:26.600
<v Speaker 1>or two ago that as an example why things are

1292
01:10:26.640 --> 01:10:29.520
<v Speaker 1>so good here. Before I talked further about Roger Bacon

1293
01:10:29.560 --> 01:10:33.039
<v Speaker 1>High School. Is that a few years ago. Might have

1294
01:10:33.079 --> 01:10:35.279
<v Speaker 1>been at the turn of the century, twenty four years ago.

1295
01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:38.079
<v Speaker 1>I think it was after that. But Sports Illustrated others

1296
01:10:38.079 --> 01:10:41.640
<v Speaker 1>did a ranking of the top ten college football programs

1297
01:10:41.640 --> 01:10:46.600
<v Speaker 1>of all time, and number two number I'll go. Number

1298
01:10:46.640 --> 01:10:51.600
<v Speaker 1>three was University of Michigan. Number two was Notre Dame,

1299
01:10:52.279 --> 01:10:55.439
<v Speaker 1>and number one was the Ohio State University. So if

1300
01:10:55.439 --> 01:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>you want to watch college football. In addition to UC

1301
01:10:57.800 --> 01:11:02.439
<v Speaker 1>or Miami, my gosh, you the greatest college football program

1302
01:11:02.479 --> 01:11:06.119
<v Speaker 1>in America, which means the world one hundred miles from here.

1303
01:11:06.840 --> 01:11:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Then Michigan and Arbor, the home of Tom Weedman, the

1304
01:11:10.760 --> 01:11:13.640
<v Speaker 1>weed Man, that's about two hundred and fifty miles from here,

1305
01:11:14.000 --> 01:11:16.560
<v Speaker 1>and South Bend's about one hundred and eighty miles from here.

1306
01:11:16.640 --> 01:11:19.000
<v Speaker 1>If you want to watch college football, there's no better

1307
01:11:19.039 --> 01:11:21.479
<v Speaker 1>place in America to watch it than right here. Then

1308
01:11:21.520 --> 01:11:24.279
<v Speaker 1>they did a report on the top college basketball programs

1309
01:11:24.319 --> 01:11:28.960
<v Speaker 1>in America. Well, the top the top three, the top

1310
01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:33.760
<v Speaker 1>three or number three was UCLA, Number two was North Carolina.

1311
01:11:34.159 --> 01:11:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Number one was Kentucky, which is ninety miles down the road.

1312
01:11:38.760 --> 01:11:42.520
<v Speaker 1>My good friend, the Smiths live in Louisville, Kenny Smith

1313
01:11:42.520 --> 01:11:45.680
<v Speaker 1>and die in. But they're great Kentucky fans. So if

1314
01:11:45.720 --> 01:11:49.920
<v Speaker 1>you want to watch great college basketball, participate in the program. Well,

1315
01:11:49.960 --> 01:11:54.039
<v Speaker 1>not only have you seen Xavier, UC's won two national titles,

1316
01:11:54.199 --> 01:11:57.079
<v Speaker 1>should have won the third, that's a different story. Xavier

1317
01:11:57.079 --> 01:12:01.039
<v Speaker 1>has won two National Invitation Tournament titles. The knit and

1318
01:12:01.079 --> 01:12:03.520
<v Speaker 1>it's a great school. Then you also have Mount Saint

01:12:51.960 --> 01:12:55.279
<v Speaker 1>guess what, well we got the Bengals. We've got Joe Burrow,

1335
01:12:55.319 --> 01:12:58.399
<v Speaker 1>got t Higgins, got Jamar got Trey Henderson. We have

1336
01:12:58.439 --> 01:13:01.439
<v Speaker 1>a professional team right here in Cincinnati. You can watch it.

1337
01:13:01.840 --> 01:13:04.760
<v Speaker 1>If you enjoy water sports, whether the Ohio River, all

1338
01:13:04.760 --> 01:13:07.800
<v Speaker 1>the lakes and the hollers and the hamlets all over

1339
01:13:07.840 --> 01:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>the Tristate. You can certainly enjoy water sports right here,

1340
01:13:11.399 --> 01:13:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and so to me, it's the best place in the

1341
01:13:15.000 --> 01:13:17.840
<v Speaker 1>world to live, which is why when I was given

1342
01:13:17.880 --> 01:13:20.760
<v Speaker 1>opportunities to go to larger markets, got real close one

1343
01:13:20.840 --> 01:13:23.800
<v Speaker 1>time and not too close others. I just couldn't pull

1344
01:13:23.840 --> 01:13:27.279
<v Speaker 1>the trigger. It was Mike McConnell and I. In twenty eleven,

1345
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Randy Michaels and John Phillips had left and gone to

1346
01:13:31.239 --> 01:13:37.680
<v Speaker 1>WGN in Chicago, and he wanted to change gn's format

1347
01:13:37.840 --> 01:13:41.239
<v Speaker 1>wasn't very successful. He wanted to bring in Mike McConnell

1348
01:13:41.239 --> 01:13:44.720
<v Speaker 1>and Bill Cunningham from Cincinnati from nine am until three

1349
01:13:44.800 --> 01:13:48.960
<v Speaker 1>pm every day on WGN. And I don't blame Mike

1350
01:13:49.079 --> 01:13:52.880
<v Speaker 1>McConnell one bit for taking that opportunity and lighting up

1351
01:13:54.000 --> 01:13:56.520
<v Speaker 1>the city of Chicago. I was on my back deck,

1352
01:13:56.600 --> 01:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I was by myself, spent about an hour just standing there.

1353
01:14:00.079 --> 01:14:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Then I've sat, got up, walked around, and it was

1354
01:14:02.600 --> 01:14:05.800
<v Speaker 1>at yay or nay. Because Mike had already committed. I'd

1355
01:14:05.840 --> 01:14:08.399
<v Speaker 1>gone out to lunch with him at Trios here in Kenwood.

1356
01:14:08.600 --> 01:14:12.079
<v Speaker 1>Greg Pansera's fine outfit, and needless to say, the money

1357
01:14:12.199 --> 01:14:17.399
<v Speaker 1>was extremely high, and I looked around. I got in

1358
01:14:17.439 --> 01:14:20.359
<v Speaker 1>my car with Penny. I drove through Deer Park. I

1359
01:14:20.439 --> 01:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>went into Great Gate of Heaven Cemetery to look at

1360
01:14:22.800 --> 01:14:25.680
<v Speaker 1>all my family, my mom, my family's at gate to

1361
01:14:25.720 --> 01:14:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Heaven Cemetery. I drove into Kentucky where I was born

1362
01:14:29.039 --> 01:14:34.079
<v Speaker 1>in Covington Saintes and I went by Xavier University, my

1363
01:14:34.239 --> 01:14:38.680
<v Speaker 1>time there with Jerry Green, so many others, Gordon Veterino.

1364
01:14:38.720 --> 01:14:42.479
<v Speaker 1>Growing up, I just couldn't buy. I just my mouth

1365
01:14:42.520 --> 01:14:44.920
<v Speaker 1>could say yes, but my body would not allow me

1366
01:14:44.960 --> 01:14:47.640
<v Speaker 1>to leave Cincinnati. I just I just couldn't do it.

1367
01:14:47.960 --> 01:14:53.960
<v Speaker 1>That I cost myself a couple million dollars. Yes, but uh,

1368
01:14:54.000 --> 01:14:57.199
<v Speaker 1>in life, I have found that you should you shouldn't

1369
01:14:57.239 --> 01:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>seek what you have. By that, I I mean if

1370
01:15:01.840 --> 01:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>you're happy, if you're fulfilled, if your family's in a

1371
01:15:06.000 --> 01:15:10.359
<v Speaker 1>certain place, and you have certain close relationships with him,

1372
01:15:10.960 --> 01:15:14.960
<v Speaker 1>friends and family here, associates here, long history here. Well,

1373
01:15:15.039 --> 01:15:17.680
<v Speaker 1>all I seek in life is joy and happiness and

1374
01:15:17.720 --> 01:15:21.279
<v Speaker 1>fulfillment and values in a vision. But damn it, I

1375
01:15:21.359 --> 01:15:24.520
<v Speaker 1>have it all right here and it doesn't begrudge. Mike

1376
01:15:24.560 --> 01:15:26.520
<v Speaker 1>one't bit for what he did. He made the right

1377
01:15:26.560 --> 01:15:29.479
<v Speaker 1>decision for him and his family, and after four or

1378
01:15:29.560 --> 01:15:34.960
<v Speaker 1>five years his contract was up and out of time.

1379
01:15:35.079 --> 01:15:38.199
<v Speaker 1>Jim Scott wanted to retire. I think it was like

1380
01:15:39.000 --> 01:15:42.239
<v Speaker 1>twenty fifteen, maybe twenty fifteen, about ten years ago. I

1381
01:15:42.319 --> 01:15:46.119
<v Speaker 1>wanted to retire, and the powers that be here it

1382
01:15:46.199 --> 01:15:50.159
<v Speaker 1>was Chuck Frederick and Darryl Parks, secured Mike McConnell to

1383
01:15:50.199 --> 01:15:53.239
<v Speaker 1>come back. And here we are ten years later and

1384
01:15:53.319 --> 01:15:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Mike McConnell is leaving. And in this business, if you

1385
01:15:56.560 --> 01:15:59.439
<v Speaker 1>can leave voluntarily, if someone didn't kick you in the

1386
01:15:59.439 --> 01:16:03.359
<v Speaker 1>ash and throwry out the door, that's unusual. And Mike

1387
01:16:03.439 --> 01:16:08.760
<v Speaker 1>McConnell is leaving because he simply said, I'm getting old

1388
01:16:08.760 --> 01:16:10.399
<v Speaker 1>and I don't want to do it anymore. Well, that's

1389
01:16:10.399 --> 01:16:13.760
<v Speaker 1>a good reason. Gary Burbank said goodbye every now and

1390
01:16:13.760 --> 01:16:15.439
<v Speaker 1>then to go to YouTube and look at his goodbye

1391
01:16:15.520 --> 01:16:19.119
<v Speaker 1>or Jim Scott look at his goodbye, and it was

1392
01:16:19.159 --> 01:16:22.199
<v Speaker 1>handled the right way. Very rare in this business that

1393
01:16:22.279 --> 01:16:25.079
<v Speaker 1>you decide when you want to go. But Mike McConnell

1394
01:16:25.119 --> 01:16:27.359
<v Speaker 1>is deciding when he wants to go, and it's going

1395
01:16:27.439 --> 01:16:30.239
<v Speaker 1>to be on Friday, and we knew for the Christmas

1396
01:16:30.239 --> 01:16:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Morning Spectacular. We were here with Rocky and with Eddie

1397
01:16:34.880 --> 01:16:37.720
<v Speaker 1>and with Scott Sloan and I and I said to Mike,

1398
01:16:37.960 --> 01:16:40.079
<v Speaker 1>do you want to announce it on Christmas morning you're leaving?

1399
01:16:40.079 --> 01:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>He said, no, I don't want that, he said, I

1400
01:16:41.920 --> 01:16:43.760
<v Speaker 1>don't want to spend the next four or five months

1401
01:16:44.920 --> 01:16:47.479
<v Speaker 1>thinking about people saying I'm sorry that you're going to go.

1402
01:16:47.720 --> 01:16:49.640
<v Speaker 1>He wants to announce it, he said, near the end,

1403
01:16:49.880 --> 01:16:52.920
<v Speaker 1>which will be the first week in April, and just

1404
01:16:53.479 --> 01:16:55.720
<v Speaker 1>he wants to fade off into the sunset. He's earned

1405
01:16:55.720 --> 01:16:57.680
<v Speaker 1>the right to go out the way he wants to

1406
01:16:57.720 --> 01:17:02.399
<v Speaker 1>go out. But damn it, life continues. So sometime in

1407
01:17:02.479 --> 01:17:04.760
<v Speaker 1>about fifteen minutes or so, there's going to be a

1408
01:17:04.800 --> 01:17:09.079
<v Speaker 1>statement had and we'll see what happens with that. But nonetheless,

1409
01:17:09.800 --> 01:17:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I've walked among giants in radio. I try to live

1410
01:17:13.760 --> 01:17:18.079
<v Speaker 1>up to what Gary and Jim and what Bob Trumpy

1411
01:17:18.119 --> 01:17:21.319
<v Speaker 1>and Chris Collinsworth and the Truck and Bozo have done.

1412
01:17:21.399 --> 01:17:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Mike McConnell and Jeff Henderson and better quit mentioning names.

1413
01:17:24.600 --> 01:17:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna leave a few out joh Crumley and etc.

1414
01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm pleased to be here. I do not want to

1415
01:17:29.560 --> 01:17:32.720
<v Speaker 1>seek in life what I have and so God willing,

1416
01:17:32.800 --> 01:17:35.640
<v Speaker 1>I'll maybe change things up a little bit, but continue

1417
01:17:35.720 --> 01:17:39.319
<v Speaker 1>for a few more years. And lastly, when I when

1418
01:17:39.319 --> 01:17:43.159
<v Speaker 1>I look at people like Tom Burke and Brandon Spaith

1419
01:17:43.880 --> 01:17:46.880
<v Speaker 1>at Roger Bacon High School, and of course the great

1420
01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:50.199
<v Speaker 1>Wayne Carucci, it wasn't so long ago for those who

1421
01:17:50.279 --> 01:17:51.760
<v Speaker 1>have not been there. I when you go to an

1422
01:17:51.840 --> 01:17:54.359
<v Speaker 1>IC seventy five going south, look on your left, Saint

1423
01:17:54.399 --> 01:17:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Bernard's a little bit on the hill just before you

1424
01:17:56.880 --> 01:18:00.680
<v Speaker 1>get to go to Heaven Cemetery and Roger Bacon. Like

1425
01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:04.560
<v Speaker 1>other old it's in Saint Bernard, which is his own village,

1426
01:18:04.560 --> 01:18:09.840
<v Speaker 1>but more or less urban inner city. It's tough, it's hard,

1427
01:18:10.520 --> 01:18:12.680
<v Speaker 1>and I have great empathy for those kids at Dones

1428
01:18:12.720 --> 01:18:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Community High School shut out yesterday. And there were times

1429
01:18:17.000 --> 01:18:20.640
<v Speaker 1>in my life when I was told I couldn't go

1430
01:18:20.680 --> 01:18:23.680
<v Speaker 1>back to Muller High School because tuition was due. If

1431
01:18:23.680 --> 01:18:26.159
<v Speaker 1>fees were due, we couldn't afford it, had no money,

1432
01:18:26.359 --> 01:18:28.359
<v Speaker 1>had to go to Deer Park. I thought that was

1433
01:18:28.399 --> 01:18:30.239
<v Speaker 1>a failure. It turned out to be a great success.

1434
01:18:30.239 --> 01:18:32.920
<v Speaker 1>And I love Deer Park for taking me and time

1435
01:18:32.960 --> 01:18:35.680
<v Speaker 1>in my life that I needed help. And there's kids

1436
01:18:35.760 --> 01:18:37.960
<v Speaker 1>right now at Doanes Community High School that need help,

1437
01:18:38.840 --> 01:18:42.479
<v Speaker 1>and so Roger Bacon High School was in that category

1438
01:18:43.640 --> 01:18:46.840
<v Speaker 1>up until about ten years ago or so. During the

1439
01:18:46.880 --> 01:18:49.680
<v Speaker 1>glory days, it was for Sal and Roger Bacon an

1440
01:18:49.680 --> 01:18:52.319
<v Speaker 1>Elder and Saint X and that was it unless Sal

1441
01:18:52.399 --> 01:18:54.680
<v Speaker 1>came and Muller came and some other came, and it

1442
01:18:54.720 --> 01:18:56.960
<v Speaker 1>got difficult to pay teachers that don't have much of

1443
01:18:57.000 --> 01:18:59.439
<v Speaker 1>a pension system. A lot of the times the teachers

1444
01:18:59.479 --> 01:19:02.079
<v Speaker 1>are paid let's money and you got to work long hours.

1445
01:19:02.479 --> 01:19:05.039
<v Speaker 1>And enrollment was way down to under two hundred to

1446
01:19:05.159 --> 01:19:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Roger Bacon High School, which means they're out of business.

1447
01:19:08.239 --> 01:19:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it was prayer, maybe it was alumni like Wayne

1448
01:19:10.800 --> 01:19:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Carucci or others that say we can't let this happen.

1449
01:19:13.920 --> 01:19:15.800
<v Speaker 1>It's taken about ten years to get back to where

1450
01:19:15.800 --> 01:19:18.840
<v Speaker 1>they are now. The turning down kids who want to

1451
01:19:18.880 --> 01:19:22.800
<v Speaker 1>go there, and the great majority are kids that from

1452
01:19:22.840 --> 01:19:25.920
<v Speaker 1>working class environments that would never get into Saint X.

1453
01:19:26.479 --> 01:19:28.960
<v Speaker 1>And God blessed Saint X. They have fifteen hundred kids

1454
01:19:29.319 --> 01:19:31.680
<v Speaker 1>the best and the bride is go there. I'm not

1455
01:19:31.720 --> 01:19:33.479
<v Speaker 1>sure when I was in the eighth grade or freshmen,

1456
01:19:33.479 --> 01:19:36.319
<v Speaker 1>I could have qualified to go to Saint X. I

1457
01:19:36.359 --> 01:19:38.039
<v Speaker 1>know I qualified to go to Muller, and I wish

1458
01:19:38.039 --> 01:19:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I would have stayed there until I was told I couldn't,

1459
01:19:41.439 --> 01:19:43.359
<v Speaker 1>so I went to Deer Park and that was as

1460
01:19:43.399 --> 01:19:46.560
<v Speaker 1>to turnout, the best high school experience of my life

1461
01:19:46.920 --> 01:19:49.600
<v Speaker 1>was at Deer Park High School. But for that, I

1462
01:19:49.640 --> 01:19:52.079
<v Speaker 1>would not be where I am today. And there's some

1463
01:19:52.239 --> 01:19:55.840
<v Speaker 1>boy or girl at Roger Bacon right now who's trying

1464
01:19:55.880 --> 01:19:58.239
<v Speaker 1>to get in and can't get in. What did they admit?

1465
01:19:58.399 --> 01:20:05.680
<v Speaker 1>Seven of two hundred students and the last cycle and freshman, sophomore, junior, senior,

1466
01:20:06.239 --> 01:20:09.479
<v Speaker 1>they have about five hundred kids, boys and girls, largely

1467
01:20:09.520 --> 01:20:14.680
<v Speaker 1>from working class environments that have faith and value, and

1468
01:20:15.159 --> 01:20:17.720
<v Speaker 1>they're not well known, and they simply want to make

1469
01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:19.760
<v Speaker 1>their way in this difficult world in which we live.

1470
01:20:20.560 --> 01:20:23.680
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just heartened by the fact that people like

1471
01:20:23.760 --> 01:20:28.640
<v Speaker 1>Brandon Spaith and Tom Burke and Wayne Crucci and dozens

1472
01:20:28.640 --> 01:20:31.720
<v Speaker 1>of others. Buddyl Rosa helps tremendously as much as he

1473
01:20:31.800 --> 01:20:34.960
<v Speaker 1>can to help kids to get up on top of

1474
01:20:34.960 --> 01:20:37.760
<v Speaker 1>the ladder then bend over and pull somebody up behind you.

1475
01:20:39.000 --> 01:20:41.439
<v Speaker 1>And that's what's happening today at Roger Bacon High School.

1476
01:20:41.800 --> 01:20:44.079
<v Speaker 1>It's not happening in most of the high schools in

1477
01:20:44.119 --> 01:20:47.560
<v Speaker 1>the urban area, whether Achin or Woodward or Use whatever

1478
01:20:47.560 --> 01:20:50.840
<v Speaker 1>it might be. Every day is a new challenge. But

1479
01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:53.000
<v Speaker 1>in every one of those students that have failed and

1480
01:20:53.359 --> 01:20:55.760
<v Speaker 1>must go to Done Community High School and then they

1481
01:20:55.800 --> 01:20:59.079
<v Speaker 1>shut down, I don't know what becomes of those kids

1482
01:20:59.119 --> 01:21:02.800
<v Speaker 1>six months from now, a year from now, because they

1483
01:21:02.840 --> 01:21:07.279
<v Speaker 1>have behavioral difficulties, they have other circumstances that they couldn't

1484
01:21:07.279 --> 01:21:09.319
<v Speaker 1>make it at ache In High School. So they go

1485
01:21:09.399 --> 01:21:12.920
<v Speaker 1>to Doane and Doan shuts down. Now what do you do?

1486
01:21:14.119 --> 01:21:18.079
<v Speaker 1>My gosh, you can't start a bonfire, but you can't

1487
01:21:18.159 --> 01:21:20.560
<v Speaker 1>light a candle. And the best thing a man or

1488
01:21:20.560 --> 01:21:22.840
<v Speaker 1>a woman can do when you get to where you're

1489
01:21:22.880 --> 01:21:25.880
<v Speaker 1>going to reach back and pull somebody up behind you.

1490
01:21:26.640 --> 01:21:29.279
<v Speaker 1>I've tried to do that my whole life, and I'm

1491
01:21:29.319 --> 01:21:31.840
<v Speaker 1>glad that Wayne Carucci and others are doing that at

1492
01:21:31.920 --> 01:21:34.199
<v Speaker 1>Roger Bacon High School. And it's happening now at Maler

1493
01:21:34.279 --> 01:21:36.640
<v Speaker 1>High School. It happens at Deer Park High School, it

1494
01:21:36.640 --> 01:21:40.840
<v Speaker 1>happens at Sycamore, it happens at Beechwood. In which people

1495
01:21:40.840 --> 01:21:44.079
<v Speaker 1>involved in a community in a small way assist others

1496
01:21:44.560 --> 01:21:47.560
<v Speaker 1>to walk the path that a good person has walked,

1497
01:21:47.760 --> 01:21:49.760
<v Speaker 1>and I end up in prison or on drugs or

1498
01:21:49.760 --> 01:21:53.680
<v Speaker 1>part of some gang. And I just fear for those

1499
01:21:53.880 --> 01:21:56.199
<v Speaker 1>two or three hundred kids at Doan's Community High School.

1500
01:21:56.199 --> 01:21:59.479
<v Speaker 1>They're lost, they have no functional home. Most of them

1501
01:21:59.479 --> 01:22:02.439
<v Speaker 1>don't have a dad. It could give a crap that

1502
01:22:02.479 --> 01:22:05.560
<v Speaker 1>they live on the streets. There's a couple thousand kids

1503
01:22:05.640 --> 01:22:09.199
<v Speaker 1>at CPS that are homeless. They live in cars, on

1504
01:22:09.239 --> 01:22:13.119
<v Speaker 1>street corners, in abandoned buildings. And the richest, most powerful

1505
01:22:13.119 --> 01:22:15.239
<v Speaker 1>country in the world will spend lots of money on

1506
01:22:15.279 --> 01:22:18.840
<v Speaker 1>silly stuff, and money is not always the answer. I

1507
01:22:18.880 --> 01:22:22.479
<v Speaker 1>would assume that Tom Burke and Brandon Spaith and Roger

1508
01:22:22.520 --> 01:22:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Bacon teachers aren't making a bundle of dough. I would

1509
01:22:25.640 --> 01:22:28.680
<v Speaker 1>assume it's a calling and they're there to help. So

1510
01:22:28.800 --> 01:22:32.439
<v Speaker 1>once again, if you can help Roger Bacon dot com,

1511
01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:34.840
<v Speaker 1>go to the website, check it out. They want to

1512
01:22:34.840 --> 01:22:38.960
<v Speaker 1>build a larger facility because what they do works. Every

1513
01:22:39.039 --> 01:22:44.279
<v Speaker 1>child has innate value and sometime a little flame is

1514
01:22:44.359 --> 01:22:48.119
<v Speaker 1>lit and that's all a kid needs. When I walked

1515
01:22:48.119 --> 01:22:50.880
<v Speaker 1>into the steps at Deer Park High School as a

1516
01:22:51.199 --> 01:22:54.520
<v Speaker 1>incoming sophomore, didn't want to be there. I viewed Deer

1517
01:22:54.560 --> 01:22:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Park as where failures go. But there was a coach

1518
01:22:57.600 --> 01:23:00.840
<v Speaker 1>there named Tom Griswold who took me bumb my shoulder

1519
01:23:00.880 --> 01:23:02.680
<v Speaker 1>and said, hey, you look like you're lost, and I said,

1520
01:23:02.680 --> 01:23:04.920
<v Speaker 1>you have no idea took me into the front desk.

1521
01:23:05.279 --> 01:23:07.640
<v Speaker 1>I applied to go to Deer Park High School. Ended

1522
01:23:07.720 --> 01:23:10.520
<v Speaker 1>up in Dummy Hall about two months later because I

1523
01:23:10.600 --> 01:23:12.760
<v Speaker 1>was failing at Deer Park High School as a sophomore,

1524
01:23:13.079 --> 01:23:16.039
<v Speaker 1>and that same coach said to me, are you the

1525
01:23:16.119 --> 01:23:18.159
<v Speaker 1>guy in the eighth grade is Saint Savior that scored

1526
01:23:18.279 --> 01:23:21.079
<v Speaker 1>like twenty five points? I said, yeah, I play basketball.

1527
01:23:21.119 --> 01:23:23.439
<v Speaker 1>He said, if I get you out of dummy Hall

1528
01:23:23.720 --> 01:23:26.600
<v Speaker 1>because you're failing, would you agree to get your grades

1529
01:23:26.640 --> 01:23:28.800
<v Speaker 1>up and to play basketball at Deer Park? I said

1530
01:23:28.800 --> 01:23:32.319
<v Speaker 1>Coach grays Wald, Yes I will. And the rest is history.

1531
01:23:32.640 --> 01:23:34.800
<v Speaker 1>All it Texas for a man or a woman to

1532
01:23:34.840 --> 01:23:37.680
<v Speaker 1>give that little flame of hope and the soul of

1533
01:23:37.720 --> 01:23:41.920
<v Speaker 1>someone who needs it. Let's continue with more and if

1568
01:25:31.199 --> 01:25:31.760
<v Speaker 10>of the building.

1569
01:25:31.960 --> 01:25:34.880
<v Speaker 1>They put gas in it. No, it's always a risk.

1570
01:25:34.960 --> 01:25:38.319
<v Speaker 1>Well what the hell? Yeah, I asked you went down

1571
01:25:39.159 --> 01:25:43.159

1572
01:25:43.159 --> 01:25:44.199
<v Speaker 1>to three would be open?

1573
01:25:45.960 --> 01:25:47.640
<v Speaker 2>Are they smoking crack or something?

1574
01:25:48.279 --> 01:25:55.079
<v Speaker 1>Justice Joe perfect? He can do well. I mean, how

1575
01:25:55.119 --> 01:25:57.600
<v Speaker 1>many times does he up to see what happens? Thank you?

1576
01:25:58.000 --> 01:25:58.039
<v Speaker 4>What?

1577
01:25:58.199 --> 01:26:00.319
<v Speaker 1>What? How many times is he on the bench? I get?

1578
01:26:00.640 --> 01:26:03.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean you know the Supreme Court? How many times?

1579
01:26:03.680 --> 01:26:05.680
<v Speaker 1>How many times is he on the bench? He stays

1580
01:26:05.760 --> 01:26:10.159
<v Speaker 1>probably four mornings a month. Okay, so he misses him.

1581
01:26:10.359 --> 01:26:13.520
<v Speaker 1>We'll get the hawk man in. Do it remotely. He

1582
01:26:13.560 --> 01:26:15.760
<v Speaker 1>can do it. Yeah, you can do it right. He

1583
01:26:15.800 --> 01:26:17.920
<v Speaker 1>can do it right from his chambers. And I mean

1584
01:26:18.000 --> 01:26:20.399
<v Speaker 1>helicopter traffic anymore? Is that still a thing? Do you

1585
01:26:20.439 --> 01:26:25.680
<v Speaker 1>think Chuck Ingram all the way with Ted McKay. I

1586
01:26:25.760 --> 01:26:28.520
<v Speaker 1>get Chuck and a helicopter. Andy was in it when

1587
01:26:28.520 --> 01:26:33.840
<v Speaker 1>it crashed. To you survived two helicopter crashes, he did.

1588
01:26:33.920 --> 01:26:36.359
<v Speaker 10>Let me tell you my life, I will if given

1589
01:26:36.399 --> 01:26:39.960
<v Speaker 10>the opportunity, I will survive one helicopter crashed, second one,

1590
01:26:40.079 --> 01:26:42.600
<v Speaker 10>because I will never get in another one again the

1591
01:26:42.640 --> 01:26:43.439
<v Speaker 10>rest of my life.

1592
01:26:43.520 --> 01:26:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Bill Behar wanted me to go into the helicopter years

1593
01:26:46.279 --> 01:26:48.760
<v Speaker 1>ago when I first started, and I thought, I don't know,

1594
01:26:48.840 --> 01:26:52.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about two weeks said, I said, okay,

1595
01:26:52.439 --> 01:26:54.640
<v Speaker 1>we'll do it in a couple of weeks. Well, right

1596
01:26:54.720 --> 01:26:59.159
<v Speaker 1>during that time, he goes down on Macateewah owned by

1597
01:26:59.319 --> 01:27:03.640
<v Speaker 1>now by Mark Sheer and Dale Donnohan. He he goes down,

1598
01:27:04.000 --> 01:27:06.359
<v Speaker 1>he goes down, he goes down on I don't know

1599
01:27:06.399 --> 01:27:10.199
<v Speaker 1>what green it was, and they and they crashed. Nancy

1600
01:27:10.279 --> 01:27:13.520
<v Speaker 1>McCormick didn't make it. No, that's true. It's dangerous rock.

1601
01:27:14.439 --> 01:27:16.199
<v Speaker 1>And he was up there. John Phillips was up for

1602
01:27:16.239 --> 01:27:20.119
<v Speaker 1>twenty four years, right. He had man crashed twice. The

1603
01:27:20.199 --> 01:27:22.760
<v Speaker 1>second time I two seventy five at past pro shops

1604
01:27:22.840 --> 01:27:25.119
<v Speaker 1>right up. It was in between the two what happened.

1605
01:27:25.319 --> 01:27:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Why it crash? The guy in the morning didn't gasp

1606
01:27:29.760 --> 01:27:31.359
<v Speaker 1>the thing up like he should have.

1607
01:27:31.560 --> 01:27:33.600
<v Speaker 10>Don't you check that sort of thing for you get

1608
01:27:33.640 --> 01:27:35.359
<v Speaker 10>up in a helicopter.

1609
01:27:35.800 --> 01:27:38.119
<v Speaker 1>You're making well, I guess, I guess you know you

1610
01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:39.640
<v Speaker 1>don't know. The first thing I would do is you

1611
01:27:39.680 --> 01:27:43.119
<v Speaker 1>don't assume fuel. You don't assume that anymore. Rock Sarah

1612
01:27:43.199 --> 01:27:43.800
<v Speaker 1>gage in there.

1613
01:27:43.840 --> 01:27:48.279
<v Speaker 10>That says, I imagine there's a gauge, Yes, as a

1614
01:27:48.359 --> 01:27:49.439
<v Speaker 10>gauge in the helicopter.

1615
01:27:50.239 --> 01:27:55.520
<v Speaker 1>He rolled over and uh crawled out the other side.

1616
01:27:55.680 --> 01:27:59.720
<v Speaker 1>The police sirens be okay, he said, yep. I said

1617
01:28:00.119 --> 01:28:02.840
<v Speaker 1>that was God's sassage too. I would say that's it.

1618
01:28:02.880 --> 01:28:05.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm done, done. I can't I make it through one.

1619
01:28:05.640 --> 01:28:09.600
<v Speaker 1>That's it. John Phillips not going up again twenty four years.

1620
01:28:09.960 --> 01:28:12.359
<v Speaker 1>He's going to come back and do helicopter traffic in

1621
01:28:12.399 --> 01:28:15.640
<v Speaker 1>the mornings with you, me and the seg Are you

1622
01:28:15.640 --> 01:28:16.800
<v Speaker 1>willing to get in the helicopter?

1623
01:28:17.600 --> 01:28:19.920
<v Speaker 10>So when when you guys are when you're doing mornings

1624
01:28:20.000 --> 01:28:22.760

1649
01:29:53.600 --> 01:29:56.560

01:30:26.279 --> 01:30:29.600
<v Speaker 1>same time, Richard Pettino is gonna be is going to

1659
01:30:29.640 --> 01:30:33.800
<v Speaker 1>be officially introduced as the new Musketeers had basketball coach

1660
01:30:34.039 --> 01:30:37.359
<v Speaker 1>three Thirty's got a meeting with the team. It's gonna

1661
01:30:37.359 --> 01:30:38.840
<v Speaker 1>be in a phone booth. You know what a phone

1662
01:30:38.880 --> 01:30:42.600
<v Speaker 1>booth is. Yes, there's no team, they're all gone.

1663
01:30:42.800 --> 01:30:45.039
<v Speaker 10>So he's agreed to become a coach of a team

1664
01:30:45.079 --> 01:30:47.840
<v Speaker 10>that he does not yet have, does not yet exist.

1665
01:30:47.640 --> 01:30:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't exist. Indiana. Who's good bad? It's bad. It's all bad.

1666
01:30:53.319 --> 01:30:55.079
<v Speaker 1>In fact, I've been told by some of your rich

1667
01:30:55.119 --> 01:30:58.920
<v Speaker 1>friends are asked for nil money, like a million dollars here,

1668
01:30:58.920 --> 01:31:01.520
<v Speaker 1>and they're thinking, you know what. I don't know these kids,

1669
01:31:01.680 --> 01:31:02.760
<v Speaker 1>but we're seeing it happen.

1670
01:31:02.800 --> 01:31:06.840
<v Speaker 10>The blue bloods that the big time programs are going

1671
01:31:06.920 --> 01:31:08.960
<v Speaker 10>to be in a position to be. Look, the top

1672
01:31:08.960 --> 01:31:13.119
<v Speaker 10>four teams the NCAA Tournament. Big time schools make money.

1673
01:31:13.279 --> 01:31:14.880
<v Speaker 10>The schools that everyone thought was going to be in

1674
01:31:14.880 --> 01:31:18.000
<v Speaker 10>the final four. Right, there's no upsets, there's no cinderellas,

1675
01:31:18.239 --> 01:31:19.039
<v Speaker 10>and they don't happen.

1676
01:31:19.079 --> 01:31:21.680
<v Speaker 1>No more number one sets all made. It was twenty

1677
01:31:21.680 --> 01:31:24.720
<v Speaker 1>oh seven in San Antonio. By the way, this is

1678
01:31:24.760 --> 01:31:27.439
<v Speaker 1>the next time. I'm watching this nineteen ninety two documentary

1679
01:31:27.640 --> 01:31:30.279
<v Speaker 1>on Duke basketball with that team Christian Leitner, and never

1680
01:31:30.279 --> 01:31:32.840
<v Speaker 1>happened again. And I'm thinking, never welcome that team costs.

1681
01:31:33.239 --> 01:31:35.960
<v Speaker 1>I think college kids, they're man, they're adults. What would

1682
01:31:35.960 --> 01:31:40.680
<v Speaker 1>that cost? What about the final four team with hugs.

1683
01:31:40.720 --> 01:31:42.560
<v Speaker 10>If on that team, even if they wanted to stay

1684
01:31:42.600 --> 01:31:44.319
<v Speaker 10>in college and not go to the NBA, they would

1685
01:31:44.319 --> 01:31:47.279
<v Speaker 10>get plucked off by another school that would pay them

1686
01:31:47.319 --> 01:31:49.119
<v Speaker 10>some exorbitant amount of money and say Why would I

1687
01:31:49.199 --> 01:31:50.600
<v Speaker 10>be the number three here? Where I can go be

1688
01:31:50.640 --> 01:31:54.479
<v Speaker 10>the number one there with no repercussions. Christian lingers nothing

1689
01:31:54.680 --> 01:31:57.359
<v Speaker 10>probably ten million dollars a year. We'll pay you twelve

1690
01:31:57.560 --> 01:32:00.239
<v Speaker 10>He'll go from Duke to North Carolina. That's like real

1691
01:32:00.279 --> 01:32:01.319
<v Speaker 10>money for some of these.

1692
01:32:02.720 --> 01:32:07.000
<v Speaker 1>From wouldn't he savior? Good use and its prime? And

1693
01:32:07.199 --> 01:32:09.920
<v Speaker 1>how bad is that? The donors are saying that, Wait

1694
01:32:09.920 --> 01:32:12.000
<v Speaker 1>a minute, I don't know if I like this. Maybe

1695
01:32:12.279 --> 01:32:14.159
<v Speaker 1>maybe the adults ought to get involved, saying it, you

1696
01:32:14.199 --> 01:32:16.800
<v Speaker 1>have to sign a contract, you're an adult. Everybody keeps

1697
01:32:16.800 --> 01:32:17.079
<v Speaker 1>saying that.

1698
01:32:17.640 --> 01:32:22.079
<v Speaker 10>Everyone agrees, every coach, every fan, everybody says somebody's got

1699
01:32:22.079 --> 01:32:24.159
<v Speaker 10>to do something, something has to be done. Well, who

1700
01:32:24.239 --> 01:32:26.479
<v Speaker 10>is somebody? And when are they going to do it?

1701
01:32:26.560 --> 01:32:28.199
<v Speaker 10>Because we just keep it. And the thing that I

1702
01:32:28.239 --> 01:32:33.560
<v Speaker 10>hear keeps holding everything up is the academic calendar. They can't. Yeah,

1703
01:32:34.039 --> 01:32:36.760
<v Speaker 10>that's the excuse. Given It's like, well, some schools are

1704
01:32:36.760 --> 01:32:40.079
<v Speaker 10>on trimesser. If you have the portal open, you catch that.

1705
01:32:41.079 --> 01:32:43.039
<v Speaker 10>The only way to do it is to allow I mean,

1706
01:32:43.039 --> 01:32:47.039
<v Speaker 10>you can't have kids join in spring ball. They have

1707
01:32:47.079 --> 01:32:49.000
<v Speaker 10>to join the fall. But no coach wants that. But

1708
01:32:49.199 --> 01:32:51.279
<v Speaker 10>if everybody has to play by those rules. It would

1709
01:32:51.399 --> 01:32:53.359
<v Speaker 10>it would make sense. And the kids don't want to

1710
01:32:53.359 --> 01:32:55.000
<v Speaker 10>sign a two year deal. If you have a good year,

1711
01:32:55.039 --> 01:32:56.960
<v Speaker 10>they make a lot more money, so they don't want to.

1712
01:32:57.079 --> 01:32:59.279
<v Speaker 10>So the n say you have to sign a two

1713
01:32:59.359 --> 01:33:01.560
<v Speaker 10>year contract. We've been there for two years. But is

1714
01:33:01.560 --> 01:33:04.680
<v Speaker 10>it reasonable? That's good for the sports that we all love.

1715
01:33:04.840 --> 01:33:08.119
<v Speaker 10>Isn't necessarily what maybe best for each individual player, And

1716
01:33:08.319 --> 01:33:10.279
<v Speaker 10>sometimes the decision me to be Okay, yeah, that might

1717
01:33:10.319 --> 01:33:12.680
<v Speaker 10>be better for you as a player. But for this

1718
01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:16.640
<v Speaker 10>great thing we call college sports and the continuation of

1719
01:33:16.680 --> 01:33:17.479
<v Speaker 10>it to.

1720
01:33:17.399 --> 01:33:20.279
<v Speaker 1>The degree it's being we're not going to do that.

1721
01:33:20.560 --> 01:33:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Here's how it's going to be. If this duke team

1722
01:33:22.319 --> 01:33:26.560
<v Speaker 1>could play together for three years, no, what about Houston?

1723
01:33:27.079 --> 01:33:29.359
<v Speaker 1>Pretty good that fact.

1724
01:33:29.479 --> 01:33:31.760
<v Speaker 10>It'd be great for the fans because they would every year. Boy,

1725
01:33:31.800 --> 01:33:34.319
<v Speaker 10>we got a great squad coming back. Well, now you

1726
01:33:34.359 --> 01:33:35.800
<v Speaker 10>have no idea. You have no idea.

1727
01:33:35.880 --> 01:33:38.479
<v Speaker 1>When Patino meets his team at four o'clock, who's in

1728
01:33:38.520 --> 01:33:41.600
<v Speaker 1>the meeting? Nobody? You don't have a team.

1729
01:33:41.840 --> 01:33:42.039
<v Speaker 5>Now.

1730
01:33:42.159 --> 01:33:45.479
<v Speaker 1>Now one player is committed to play for Xavier, somebody

1731
01:33:45.560 --> 01:33:49.039
<v Speaker 1>has to do something. Who is somebody? And when are

1732
01:33:49.039 --> 01:33:52.039
<v Speaker 1>they going to do it. Everyone agrees this is ridiculous.

1733
01:33:52.039 --> 01:33:56.319
<v Speaker 1>Every everybody, every athletic director, every school president, every fan

1734
01:33:56.439 --> 01:33:59.520
<v Speaker 1>says this is dumb. So why why don't they click?

1735
01:33:59.560 --> 01:34:00.239
<v Speaker 1>It was okay?

1736
01:34:00.279 --> 01:34:02.560
<v Speaker 10>Is there a way that we can put a few

1737
01:34:02.600 --> 01:34:05.199
<v Speaker 10>guardrails on this and still pay some players and still

1738
01:34:05.199 --> 01:34:06.199
<v Speaker 10>have some advantages here?

1739
01:34:06.720 --> 01:34:09.279
<v Speaker 1>Why does what happened? Well, what's funny at those at

1740
01:34:09.359 --> 01:34:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the Ncaattorney games that right there on the on the

1741
01:34:13.239 --> 01:34:15.880
<v Speaker 1>scorers table and all that stuff, they got the they

1742
01:34:15.920 --> 01:34:22.560
<v Speaker 1>got the two words student athletes. That's a joke online,

1743
01:34:22.680 --> 01:34:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much. How about Sean Miller Fox nineteen

1744
01:34:25.920 --> 01:34:29.800
<v Speaker 1>this two weeks as a behind the scenes of Savier basketball.

1745
01:34:30.039 --> 01:34:34.119
<v Speaker 1>The name of the documentary is all in. He's all out.

1746
01:34:34.840 --> 01:34:37.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, are they gonna run it? They're running it now?

1747
01:34:37.279 --> 01:34:41.319
<v Speaker 1>I watch it all in? That is the ultimate eyes

1748
01:34:41.399 --> 01:34:45.800
<v Speaker 1>all out. He left. Didn't he have what he sought?

1749
01:34:46.760 --> 01:34:47.359
<v Speaker 1>Didn't he want?

1750
01:34:47.720 --> 01:34:48.119
<v Speaker 2>No?

1751
01:34:48.119 --> 01:34:51.319
<v Speaker 10>No, because he's saying year to year, I'm not going

1752
01:34:51.399 --> 01:34:53.199
<v Speaker 10>to be caught up in this mess of do we

1753
01:34:53.279 --> 01:34:55.039
<v Speaker 10>have enough money to pay the top players?

1754
01:34:55.079 --> 01:34:55.800
<v Speaker 2>The answer is no.

1755
01:34:55.920 --> 01:34:57.479
<v Speaker 10>We have a good amount of money, but we don't

1756
01:34:57.479 --> 01:34:59.079
<v Speaker 10>have the kind of money Texas does. So if I

1757
01:34:59.079 --> 01:35:01.199
<v Speaker 10>want to get the best player, and knowing that the

1758
01:35:01.279 --> 01:35:04.279
<v Speaker 10>Jimmy's and the Joe's are what wins games, He's gonna

1759
01:35:04.279 --> 01:35:06.560
<v Speaker 10>go there because they have fifteen million a year, right

1760
01:35:07.359 --> 01:35:10.600
<v Speaker 10>be sixteen, eighteen, twenty million to pay players and Xavier

1761
01:35:10.640 --> 01:35:13.680
<v Speaker 10>has what a million? Maybe had six or seven million.

1762
01:35:13.760 --> 01:35:14.960
<v Speaker 10>They got four times.

1763
01:35:14.720 --> 01:35:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, but well it's less than half the pick them

1764
01:35:17.960 --> 01:35:20.680
<v Speaker 1>up out of the garbage dump of life. Sean Miller

1765
01:35:20.800 --> 01:35:24.720
<v Speaker 1>was done. His wife builds his five million dollar mansion.

1766
01:35:24.760 --> 01:35:27.680
<v Speaker 1>They moved in in December and Indian Hill. He's got

1767
01:35:27.680 --> 01:35:30.840
<v Speaker 1>the documentary All In allows the cameras behind the scenes

1768
01:35:31.119 --> 01:35:35.079
