1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.520
<v Speaker 1>That's right. It is seven five here Kentucky at his

2
00:00:02.560 --> 00:00:05.519
<v Speaker 1>morning news with Coffee and Company on news Radio eight

3
00:00:05.559 --> 00:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>forty whas one thing that has been mentioned throughout the morning.

4
00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I believe just about everybody here in the area Kentucky,

5
00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:14.240
<v Speaker 1>in a region, I should say, is back to school.

6
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:19.000
<v Speaker 1>So I think regardless if you are, and I guess

7
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:21.960
<v Speaker 1>every kid's different situations are certainly different. It's not like

8
00:00:22.039 --> 00:00:24.960
<v Speaker 1>everybody is in the same boat. But if you are

9
00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>a teacher, a student potentially, but certainly a parent, this

10
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>is a good day, right, I've learned and I totally

11
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:38.759
<v Speaker 1>get it now. But when your kids are in school,

12
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:41.479
<v Speaker 1>it gives you a little more consistency as far as

13
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.960
<v Speaker 1>the routine, and that always is a bonus, at least

14
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 1>for me it is. So I'm sure kids will get

15
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 1>tired of school. I'm sure teachers and administrators will have headaches,

16
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>and which summer break could get here soon, But there's

17
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:57.079
<v Speaker 1>something still exciting about going back to school. And my

18
00:00:57.159 --> 00:01:00.479
<v Speaker 1>son is starting his first day of kindergarten today and

19
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm hoping he has a great day. And I don't

20
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:06.480
<v Speaker 1>remember being as excited as he is once he realizes

21
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:09.480
<v Speaker 1>this is now an everyday thing for the rest of

22
00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:14.040
<v Speaker 1>your youth up to eighteen. He'll probably have many days

23
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>like I did, and many of you probably did as well,

24
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:16.719
<v Speaker 1>where you didn't want to go to school. But he

25
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:19.920
<v Speaker 1>is fired up to start kindergarten. He's got his new backpack,

26
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:23.840
<v Speaker 1>got his lunch box, got some new shoes he's gonna wear.

27
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:26.280
<v Speaker 1>He got to meet his teacher. They did something called

28
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Speaker 1>kindergarten kindergarten camp or kindergarten kindergarten kickoff, which it was

29
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:33.680
<v Speaker 1>the thing back in my day. I didn't go to it,

30
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:36.040
<v Speaker 1>but that I think can go a long way for

31
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:38.560
<v Speaker 1>kids who might be scared to be dropped off and

32
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:41.920
<v Speaker 1>be around people they don't know. But he's excited, and

33
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:44.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited for him, but also kind of sad because

34
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's a step in the growth of your kids.

35
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:49.599
<v Speaker 2>This is kind I was gonna ask you this question.

36
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:52.439
<v Speaker 2>This kind of feels like whenever you're youngest goes off

37
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 2>to school for the first time, your last of however

38
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:56.840
<v Speaker 2>many kids you have now you have too, Is this

39
00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.799
<v Speaker 2>the first level of like empty nesting, because of course

40
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:01.799
<v Speaker 2>there's not gone from living in your house, but this

41
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>is a different level of things.

42
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:05.439
<v Speaker 1>I totally know what you mean. I don't know if

43
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if others would call it empty nesting,

44
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.080
<v Speaker 1>but no, yes, because now I mean it's there for

45
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the way. They're in the school system, right,

46
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:16.400
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, I just am happy that we no longer

47
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.960
<v Speaker 1>have to pay for daycare. I mean, look, I don't

48
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:21.719
<v Speaker 1>want to act as if we were. We were paying

49
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:24.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, a criminal amount, and a lot of people have.

50
00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:29.319
<v Speaker 1>It's been something you don't really consider. At least, we

51
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:31.879
<v Speaker 1>couldn't consider not having it, right, like we weren't going

52
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:34.120
<v Speaker 1>to make decisions to wear Okay, well, you know we

53
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:36.240
<v Speaker 1>do enough, We do well enough with our careers, and

54
00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:38.199
<v Speaker 1>most people do to where they just decided, well, you

55
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:41.800
<v Speaker 1>know what, I'm going to quit my job because I

56
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:43.479
<v Speaker 1>need to be able to you know, I won't have

57
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:46.520
<v Speaker 1>to pay for daycare. So some people do make that decision,

58
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.000
<v Speaker 1>and depending upon your situation, maybe that makes sense for you.

59
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:51.919
<v Speaker 1>But when something just becomes a and this is a

60
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:53.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of things when it comes to children, it's not

61
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:56.479
<v Speaker 1>a decision as far as can you afford it. You

62
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:58.039
<v Speaker 1>simply have to do it. You have to you have

63
00:02:58.039 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>to make it work. So we've been doing that with

64
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:03.199
<v Speaker 1>both kids for a while now, and we'll still rely

65
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:05.199
<v Speaker 1>on people to help us with kids and whatnot, but

66
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:09.120
<v Speaker 1>just the actual daycare expense. And I'm sure many parents,

67
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:11.639
<v Speaker 1>certainly around my age range can relate, and I'm sure

68
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:13.360
<v Speaker 1>many parents that are a lot older than me can

69
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.599
<v Speaker 1>relate when that no longer is I mean, it's like

70
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:20.879
<v Speaker 1>paying off a substantial bill that is there every month,

71
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:24.800
<v Speaker 1>and that's a freeing feeling, and it's almost like, you know,

72
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:28.680
<v Speaker 1>because it's never and my wife's more so keeping up

73
00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:30.919
<v Speaker 1>with this than me, But I haven't been like, oh man,

74
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:32.639
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait to the day I no longer have

75
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:36.360
<v Speaker 1>to pay for daycare. Some people do that with student loans,

76
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 1>can't wait till it's paid off. Some people do that

77
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:39.960
<v Speaker 1>with their mortgage. They can'tait till it's paid off, because

78
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.719
<v Speaker 1>clearly it's just going to give you more money that

79
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>is available to you that doesn't go towards that expense.

80
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:49.840
<v Speaker 1>And with childcare, I mean, that's a big expense. So yeah,

81
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:52.039
<v Speaker 1>that's the benefit of it. But also, you know, we

82
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 1>used to he went to daycare at the same place,

83
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:57.719
<v Speaker 1>and his last day there was the friday before we

84
00:03:57.759 --> 00:03:59.800
<v Speaker 1>left for vacation. He went to daycare at the same

85
00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:02.479
<v Speaker 1>place for the majority of his life up until I mean,

86
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.319
<v Speaker 1>I think he was maybe three months old when he started.

87
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>And they have an app where you can just track everything,

88
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:09.439
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure a lot of daycares that your children

89
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:11.120
<v Speaker 1>are in have an app they used that probably is

90
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:13.319
<v Speaker 1>the same one that the daycare we went to had,

91
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 1>and it gives you updates and it gives you pictures,

92
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:18.959
<v Speaker 1>and he quite literally grew up from three months old

93
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:21.199
<v Speaker 1>to now with a few of these kids, and we've

94
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.319
<v Speaker 1>got to know him close. And that's that's kind of

95
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>the sad aspect of it, because like I would love

96
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.480
<v Speaker 1>to check in on the app and see they posted

97
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>a video of Moose dancing around because he's he's that

98
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of guy, good vibes guy, good energy guy. And

99
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:36.279
<v Speaker 1>for those who don't know, my son's name is not Moose,

100
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:38.480
<v Speaker 1>but that's that's what we call him. And it's not

101
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.000
<v Speaker 1>an interesting story. He just was a really fat baby

102
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.000
<v Speaker 1>and I tried to pick him up and hand him

103
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:46.199
<v Speaker 1>to his mother and I nearly dropped him and I said,

104
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.040
<v Speaker 1>he's a moose and then it just stuck. But anyways,

105
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.959
<v Speaker 1>happy back to school for everybody. I know JCPS, of course,

106
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:54.000
<v Speaker 1>has been back in school since late last week. Same

107
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:55.920
<v Speaker 1>thing with some others around here. In fact, a couple

108
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.879
<v Speaker 1>of weeks in school now for some Southern Indiana school districts.

109
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:02.319
<v Speaker 1>So I'm I'm sure they may be ones that are

110
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:05.600
<v Speaker 1>more so already over school being back, right because that

111
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.959
<v Speaker 1>new back to school feeling, the freshness that comes with it,

112
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it can become pretty stale quick, especially whenever you're getting

113
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:16.680
<v Speaker 1>adjusted to the sleep schedule. I think if you're excited

114
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:18.079
<v Speaker 1>but for the first day of school, you may not

115
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:21.199
<v Speaker 1>be as tired and out of it. But if you

116
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:23.079
<v Speaker 1>were like me when I was young, especially in my

117
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:27.199
<v Speaker 1>teenage years, it was up all night, sleep till one

118
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>two pm. And that was just my cycle. And then

119
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>when I got back to school, I paid for it initially.

120
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.240
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, keep in mind, with everybody back in school

121
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:38.160
<v Speaker 1>for the most part, roadways more busy, and Bobby Ellis

122
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>will tell us how the roadways are looking up to

123
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:42.360
<v Speaker 1>this point. Also we'll get a look at the forecast

124
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 1>for Matt Melosa bitch that's coming your way here in

125
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:46.879
<v Speaker 1>just a moment. But what I want to get to next.

126
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:49.319
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was a really, really good interview yesterday,

127
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:51.680
<v Speaker 1>because that's what Terry Miners does. He does good interviews.

128
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.040
<v Speaker 1>He's Terry Miners for crying out loud. But he had

129
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Metro Councilman Anthony, which again I keep butchering his name,

130
00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it's Pageantini, and I thought the conversation about a lot

131
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:06.439
<v Speaker 1>of things, including shock probation. I encourage you to check

132
00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:08.639
<v Speaker 1>it out. But there's a specific clip from this interview

133
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:10.839
<v Speaker 1>that I want to play with you, as Pageantini kind

134
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.199
<v Speaker 1>of tells us about the state dragging their feet to

135
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:17.759
<v Speaker 1>get a juvenile detention center back opened up in Louisville.

136
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:19.399
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know who could debate that that's not

137
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:22.439
<v Speaker 1>needed and very much necessary right now with violent crime

138
00:06:22.759 --> 00:06:25.040
<v Speaker 1>committed by juveniles in this city. So we'll hear that

139
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:29.160
<v Speaker 1>next right here on news radioaight forty whas we are

140
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.480
<v Speaker 1>rolling along here on a Tuesday morning, it is Coffee

141
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:33.439
<v Speaker 1>and Company Kentucky in his morning news with you here

142
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:36.519
<v Speaker 1>on News Radio eight forty whas. Appreciate you hanging out

143
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:39.800
<v Speaker 1>with us, and also I appreciate my friends over at

144
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:42.519
<v Speaker 1>the Louisville Men's Clinic. I know you've heard about them.

145
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:46.319
<v Speaker 1>They've been around for over ten years, and there's been

146
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:50.279
<v Speaker 1>some I guess potential competitors that come and go because

147
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:52.519
<v Speaker 1>they don't do what the Louivill Men's Clinic does. They've

148
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>got a physician on staff who is phenomenal. I can

149
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:56.480
<v Speaker 1>speak to that from us. I mean, I give you

150
00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:59.240
<v Speaker 1>first in experience, doctor Wood as a pro and they

151
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>helped me when it comes to low testosterone. First of all,

152
00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:04.480
<v Speaker 1>just learning about what it is and how common it

153
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.600
<v Speaker 1>can it can be as an issue for people, but

154
00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:09.279
<v Speaker 1>there's also a lot of other ways they can help you.

155
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean when it comes to rectile tosfunction, believe it

156
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:14.600
<v Speaker 1>or not, Fellas, that's a real thing and it will

157
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.720
<v Speaker 1>likely hit you at some point. Maybe not, but if

158
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:19.600
<v Speaker 1>it does. Louis Men's Clinic that's where you need to

159
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:21.560
<v Speaker 1>turn because they have a variety of ways to treat

160
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:24.600
<v Speaker 1>it and they stand by what they do intimacy guarantee.

161
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:26.439
<v Speaker 1>If you don't perform, you don't pay. So check them

162
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:28.160
<v Speaker 1>out lovel Men's Clinic dot com or give them a

163
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:31.920
<v Speaker 1>call FABO to four four four four thousand. All right,

164
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:34.959
<v Speaker 1>so we have got some clips I want to play

165
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:36.279
<v Speaker 1>for you guys, but I'm going to hold that off

166
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:38.319
<v Speaker 1>a little bit until around seven thirty five, just to

167
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:42.199
<v Speaker 1>make sure I give myself enough time there. But we'll

168
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.879
<v Speaker 1>continue at least just the convo about shock probation and

169
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:50.720
<v Speaker 1>should it even exist, because I am not against someone

170
00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:53.759
<v Speaker 1>giving the someone giving a chance to rehabilitate themselves and

171
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.519
<v Speaker 1>potentially turn their life around. And then, of course hopefully

172
00:07:57.560 --> 00:07:59.240
<v Speaker 1>they don't have to, it's not a requirement, but then

173
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:02.959
<v Speaker 1>become an example and maybe share their story to encourage

174
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.759
<v Speaker 1>others how they can do the exact same thing. That's

175
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:07.360
<v Speaker 1>the best case scenario. Once. Of course, you have people

176
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:09.439
<v Speaker 1>that have committed violent crimes that need to be held

177
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:12.639
<v Speaker 1>accountable by going to prison, But when it comes to

178
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:18.120
<v Speaker 1>those that have had many chances, or maybe just two chances,

179
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:23.199
<v Speaker 1>and they continuously show that they are still a threat

180
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:26.120
<v Speaker 1>to the community and a threat to society. Not only

181
00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>are they not deserving of not honoring the true sentence

182
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:34.120
<v Speaker 1>that was given to them, it's reckless to the community

183
00:08:34.679 --> 00:08:37.879
<v Speaker 1>to have these individuals back out on the street where

184
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:40.519
<v Speaker 1>they're committing violent crime. And that is certainly what happened

185
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:44.559
<v Speaker 1>here with the armand Langford situation last Friday, and we

186
00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:47.480
<v Speaker 1>now know there's there's a in John Shannon this is

187
00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:50.399
<v Speaker 1>this is the Kentucky Safe Act. Is that what it's called.

188
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:51.919
<v Speaker 1>The bill that was put in place.

189
00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:54.559
<v Speaker 3>House Bill six, I believe was safe Safer Kentucky.

190
00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:56.559
<v Speaker 1>Safe to Kentucky. So that's now in place now, which

191
00:08:56.600 --> 00:08:58.759
<v Speaker 1>is good where you're going to people like Langford would

192
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 1>have had to serve about eighty five percent of his sentence.

193
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>So clearly, timing's just not on our side. That's that's

194
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:07.960
<v Speaker 1>a step in the right direction. However, you know, it's

195
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:11.799
<v Speaker 1>just it's it's really, as I spin my wheels here

196
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:14.039
<v Speaker 1>upstairs in my brain once again, I just can't understand

197
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:16.879
<v Speaker 1>how even despite the mint, you know, the scenario of

198
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:20.639
<v Speaker 1>his mental issues either way put him in the thought

199
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:23.440
<v Speaker 1>that somebody that somebody made the decision that this guy

200
00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>was deemed safe to exist in society is flat out reckless.

201
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:32.399
<v Speaker 3>I agree, and you know he was. He was convicted

202
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:36.080
<v Speaker 3>several charges. Twenty two is the report I saw twenty

203
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.600
<v Speaker 3>two separate ATM Robberies throughout Louisville is what he was

204
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:43.240
<v Speaker 3>supposed to be serving that fourteen year sentence for robbery.

205
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.639
<v Speaker 1>Robbery, a violent crime that will leave a lasting traumatic

206
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:49.960
<v Speaker 1>impact on most individuals, even if they're not harmed. I mean,

207
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:52.879
<v Speaker 1>there's a reason that you can. You're just robbing somebody

208
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:56.320
<v Speaker 1>without any violence, any harm done physically, you will still

209
00:09:56.879 --> 00:09:59.279
<v Speaker 1>serve prison time, most likely for good reason.

210
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:00.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

211
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:02.360
<v Speaker 1>So I look, I'm not saying that we should get

212
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:04.879
<v Speaker 1>rid of shock probation and people shouldn't get fair chances,

213
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and not saying everybody should just be locked away forever.

214
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:10.559
<v Speaker 1>But two ways here. Not only are these some of

215
00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:13.720
<v Speaker 1>these individuals not deserving of it's it's it's reckless and

216
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:17.399
<v Speaker 1>dangerous to this community. And we've had it happen again.

217
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:19.879
<v Speaker 1>That's why that bill passed because clearly it was an issue.

218
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.919
<v Speaker 3>But hey, it's especially about for a city that's trying

219
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:25.519
<v Speaker 3>to one boast about the crime rate coming down and

220
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.600
<v Speaker 3>putting in all these initiatives to make the city safer.

221
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.759
<v Speaker 1>Yep, no doubt, no doubt. All right, we've got traffic, weather,

222
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.360
<v Speaker 1>and sports coming. You were right here our news radio

223
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:37.960
<v Speaker 1>way forty whas. That's right, it's Coffee and Company Kentucky

224
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:40.720
<v Speaker 1>and his morning news here our news radioaight forty whas.

225
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for hanging out with us here on a Tuesday morning.

226
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:49.480
<v Speaker 1>So yesterday, Terry Miners, he had a special guest on

227
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.159
<v Speaker 1>to discuss a variety of things, including the issue that

228
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:58.000
<v Speaker 1>we have in Louisville among many with violent crime and

229
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:04.720
<v Speaker 1>that being committed bychildren, and the issue, to me, is

230
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:07.720
<v Speaker 1>not going to make any real improvement with the way

231
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:12.600
<v Speaker 1>things are currently set up. And Metro Councilman Anthony Piagentini,

232
00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I thought, really laid out something that I'll admit ignorance

233
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:18.320
<v Speaker 1>on my part just wasn't totally aware of as far

234
00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:22.120
<v Speaker 1>as just the state dragging their feet on there being

235
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:25.399
<v Speaker 1>a juvenile detention center here in Louisville, and I just

236
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:29.480
<v Speaker 1>to me, it's quite obvious nobody's responsible for these children.

237
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:33.879
<v Speaker 1>We had to have our police chief break news essentially,

238
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:35.480
<v Speaker 1>and I say that tongue in cheek, but the fact

239
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:37.200
<v Speaker 1>that it needed to be set out loud is telling

240
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:40.919
<v Speaker 1>where we are that Hey, parents, the kids that you

241
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:44.519
<v Speaker 1>have that you brought into the world, Yeah, you're responsible

242
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:48.120
<v Speaker 1>for them, but they're not doing their part. They're not

243
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:52.120
<v Speaker 1>being responsible and that has led to these kids getting

244
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:54.200
<v Speaker 1>locked up, but then somebody just coming and getting them

245
00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:56.039
<v Speaker 1>and then they're right back out in the streets committing

246
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:59.840
<v Speaker 1>violent crimes again. And you've got gangs probably being able

247
00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:03.480
<v Speaker 1>to utilize these children as well to do a lot

248
00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:06.480
<v Speaker 1>of the legwork in their world of violent crime. And

249
00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:09.039
<v Speaker 1>I just thought the interview as a whole is worth

250
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:12.360
<v Speaker 1>checking out for sure. But here here's a little clip

251
00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:14.279
<v Speaker 1>that I thought was worth worth sharing here on the

252
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:14.960
<v Speaker 1>show this morning.

253
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:19.440
<v Speaker 5>Where are we on this juvenile justice situation? We have

254
00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:21.639
<v Speaker 5>lots of I mean, last week we had a guy

255
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:25.320
<v Speaker 5>shooting down a street where kids were waiting for school.

256
00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:27.879
<v Speaker 5>But he's a kid. Yeah, yeah, a senter age person.

257
00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:28.879
<v Speaker 5>What's going on there?

258
00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:33.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? So so again, I'll come back to the city

259
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:35.399
<v Speaker 4>has been doing everything we can. We need everybody else

260
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:38.720
<v Speaker 4>to be doing their flipping job, all right, Juvenile justice

261
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:42.960
<v Speaker 4>is the job of the state. Okay, our juvenile justice

262
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:45.679
<v Speaker 4>facility for you know, very long story seven years ago

263
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:48.759
<v Speaker 4>shut down, right budgetary issues between us and the state.

264
00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:51.039
<v Speaker 5>And people have told me that kids that are under

265
00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:53.360
<v Speaker 5>age that get arrested, they just get held and then

266
00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:55.200
<v Speaker 5>somebody comes and picks them up and they can be

267
00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:57.639
<v Speaker 5>back out committing more crimes twenty minutes later.

268
00:12:57.679 --> 00:13:01.320
<v Speaker 4>And our erect correct now there is ability to transition

269
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:04.120
<v Speaker 4>some of them and hold them longer, but the process

270
00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.240
<v Speaker 4>is so bad that a lot of times the judges

271
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:09.600
<v Speaker 4>and the police and everybody. They really have no other

272
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:12.320
<v Speaker 4>options to the judges instead of doing that, process will

273
00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:15.279
<v Speaker 4>go ahead. And again to some degree they feel I'm

274
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:17.960
<v Speaker 4>not picking on them wholly because the process sucks so bad.

275
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:23.279
<v Speaker 4>So three years ago, the state General Assembly allocated tens

276
00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:28.000
<v Speaker 4>of millions of dollars to build to renovate and reopen

277
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:30.720
<v Speaker 4>the juvenile justice facility. Here the deal of the state,

278
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.639
<v Speaker 4>because it's the state's job. They are going to run it. Right.

279
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:37.840
<v Speaker 4>We committed as Metro government to add on additional ancillary

280
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:40.799
<v Speaker 4>services right around education and other wrap around services for

281
00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:42.759
<v Speaker 4>the kids that are there. But the state needs to

282
00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:45.039
<v Speaker 4>run it. They need to own the building, run the building,

283
00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:46.360
<v Speaker 4>and then have the guards.

284
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:46.559
<v Speaker 1>Right.

285
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:48.200
<v Speaker 4>That is their job. That's what they do. When every

286
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:51.120
<v Speaker 4>other of the one hundred and nineteen counties in this state,

287
00:13:51.679 --> 00:13:54.320
<v Speaker 4>and we're the most populous by far, to this day,

288
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:57.679
<v Speaker 4>we have no clue when that is going to open,

289
00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:59.759
<v Speaker 4>and I can one hundred and I'm telling you right

290
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:01.639
<v Speaker 4>now again, I said the count we need the county

291
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:03.799
<v Speaker 4>attorneys to step up and get more serious about crime

292
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:06.559
<v Speaker 4>and stop pleading everything under the sun. When you transparency

293
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:09.480
<v Speaker 4>on what judges are doing related to shock probation Governor

294
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:13.320
<v Speaker 4>Andy Basher, somebody will have to explain to me, considering

295
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:16.200
<v Speaker 4>how many votes he got from Jefferson County to get

296
00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:18.919
<v Speaker 4>him elected, what are we getting out of it? Exactly.

297
00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:21.919
<v Speaker 4>I'm not one hundred percent sure, and after tens of

298
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:24.919
<v Speaker 4>millions of dollars being allocated, I don't we have no clue.

299
00:14:25.080 --> 00:14:26.679
<v Speaker 4>I'm an elected official here, I'm the head of the

300
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.039
<v Speaker 4>minority caucus. I'm in leadership and metro government. I don't

301
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:32.000
<v Speaker 4>have a bloody clue when that's going to be opened.

302
00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:35.240
<v Speaker 4>I've been told it's still years and I mean more

303
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:38.519
<v Speaker 4>than two away from ever seeing the light of day.

304
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:40.759
<v Speaker 4>And I can tell you it's because he has a

305
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:44.399
<v Speaker 4>Department of Juvenile Justice leader who has a philosophical belief

306
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:47.919
<v Speaker 4>that kids should never be in jail. Right, of course,

307
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:51.240
<v Speaker 4>I can guarantee that person and the people making the

308
00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:55.240
<v Speaker 4>decision in Frankfurt don't live anywhere near a neighborhood that's

309
00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:57.559
<v Speaker 4>been terrorized by juveniles shooting each other.

310
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.679
<v Speaker 1>That last part there, I think is is I mean,

311
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:03.399
<v Speaker 1>that was the most powerful part of that little clip,

312
00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:06.840
<v Speaker 1>that the people who are with the state being the

313
00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:09.600
<v Speaker 1>one that put this whole thing in motion. They're not

314
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:12.080
<v Speaker 1>experiencing it in any way like we are in Louisville.

315
00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:16.320
<v Speaker 1>Not a chance. And that's I mean, that's they're not

316
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:18.919
<v Speaker 1>exposed to it. We are. So I've got more thoughts

317
00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:19.960
<v Speaker 1>on that. We'll get to that coming up in just

318
00:15:19.960 --> 00:15:21.320
<v Speaker 1>a moment. However, do you want to tell you guys

319
00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:24.519
<v Speaker 1>about my good friend Bob's secoler And I know, right now,

320
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:26.440
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to buying or selling a home, you're

321
00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:28.639
<v Speaker 1>thinking to yourself, Oh, I don't know, yike's probably the

322
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:30.919
<v Speaker 1>worst time to do it. Well, you you're probably wrong.

323
00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess everybody's situation is different, but interest

324
00:15:34.799 --> 00:15:37.759
<v Speaker 1>rates don't let that scare you from taking advantage of

325
00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>what you could really really capitalize on when it comes

326
00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:42.759
<v Speaker 1>to the value of your home. So, right now, with

327
00:15:42.799 --> 00:15:45.159
<v Speaker 1>the market being what it is and the headlines creating

328
00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:46.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of stress and just making it seem as

329
00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:49.279
<v Speaker 1>if timing is terrible, it's important to have a trusted

330
00:15:49.320 --> 00:15:51.919
<v Speaker 1>resource right by your side, like the Cecolar team at

331
00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Remax Properties East. So if you're looking to buy a

332
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:56.480
<v Speaker 1>home again, now could actually be a great time, believe

333
00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:58.159
<v Speaker 1>it or not. In a market like this, you might

334
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:01.600
<v Speaker 1>find yourself with more negotiating power and facing far less competition.

335
00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:03.480
<v Speaker 1>And if you thinking about selling, you want to make

336
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:05.639
<v Speaker 1>sure your home is priced right for faster results, and

337
00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:08.000
<v Speaker 1>nobody does that better than the Secolar team. Bob will

338

<v Speaker 1>come to your house, no charge, no obligation, walk through

<v Speaker 1>about what matters and what doesn't. He'll help you understand

341
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:17.879
<v Speaker 1>what your home is truly worth in today's market, and

342
00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:20.600
<v Speaker 1>you can actually right now get a baseline estimate at

345
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:27.399
<v Speaker 1>just take my word for it. Google the Secolar team

346
00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:30.080

<v Speaker 1>That's five O two three seven six by four eight three.

349
00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:40.960
<v Speaker 1>We are rolling along here on a Tuesday morning. Thanks

350
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:43.240
<v Speaker 1>for joining us if you are just now joining us,

351
00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:44.720
<v Speaker 1>and thanks for hanging out if you've been with us.

352
00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:46.519
<v Speaker 1>It is Kentucky and his Morning News with Coffee and

353
00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Company here on News Radio eight forty whas. So this

354
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:55.919
<v Speaker 1>is something that I that I I'm sure many people

355
00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:59.840
<v Speaker 1>in the city of Kansas City are unhappy about. But

356
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:04.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't really like this guy. So therefore, Zach Bryan,

357
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:07.920
<v Speaker 1>he is a musician that I think is still very popular,

358
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:11.079
<v Speaker 1>and I think he's talented. He's a little too A

359
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:13.119
<v Speaker 1>lot of his songs sounds the same, sound the same

360
00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:15.319
<v Speaker 1>for me. But I mean, clearly he's got a I mean,

361
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:17.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm in the minority here because clearly he's got a huge,

362
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:19.720
<v Speaker 1>huge fan base. And I believe, and I don't know

363
00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:21.720
<v Speaker 1>this for certain, but John, you could probably help me

364
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:23.480
<v Speaker 1>out a little bit here. It didn't it believe that

365
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:26.440
<v Speaker 1>he was a huge factor, among many other factors as

366
00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:28.440
<v Speaker 1>to why Bourbon and Beyond last year at that time

367
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:30.759
<v Speaker 1>was such a big ticket because he might have been

368
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:32.240
<v Speaker 1>at as his peak.

369
00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Right, Yeah, I mean they had a lot of really

370
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:35.960
<v Speaker 2>good headliners, but he was. He was the cream of

371
00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:37.599
<v Speaker 2>the crop when it comes to acts that they had

372
00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:38.039
<v Speaker 2>last year.

373
00:17:38.119 --> 00:17:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and he's again, he's still probably selling out any arena,

374
00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:43.359
<v Speaker 1>any stadium he wants to do because he has that

375
00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:45.799
<v Speaker 1>big of a fan base. But to me, he seems

376
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.599
<v Speaker 1>pretty unlikable just the perception that you get from him

377
00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:51.119
<v Speaker 1>on social media and interviews, and I don't know him

378
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:54.680
<v Speaker 1>as a person, but he had I mean, he'll get

379
00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:57.200
<v Speaker 1>on he'll get on Twitter and get in fights with randos,

380
00:17:57.279 --> 00:18:01.599
<v Speaker 1>which is just I mean that of all people, I mean,

381
00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:04.720
<v Speaker 1>you would think like there's a lot of layers to

382
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:08.079
<v Speaker 1>that one. Are you bored? Also, like there are people

383
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:09.319
<v Speaker 1>that just are now going to try to get a

384
00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:11.839
<v Speaker 1>reaction out of you because they know that you're you're

385
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:14.599
<v Speaker 1>engaging with the trolls, will bring more trolls. That's just

386
00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:17.160
<v Speaker 1>how it works. But anyways, he is a big time

387
00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Philadelphia Eagles fan despite being from I believe, Oklahoma, and

388
00:18:21.559 --> 00:18:24.759
<v Speaker 1>he hates the Kansas City Chiefs and he has fans

389
00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:27.880
<v Speaker 1>that at times love his music, but they love the

390
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs and they've got to they gotta, you know, they

391
00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:35.920
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a interesting to me. That wouldn't bother me.

392
00:18:35.960 --> 00:18:38.559
<v Speaker 1>Like for example, if there was a musician an artist

393
00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:40.279
<v Speaker 1>that I love their music and I knew they hated

394
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.720
<v Speaker 1>U of l. It wouldn't change anything about me as

395
00:18:43.759 --> 00:18:46.039
<v Speaker 1>far as I mean, I wouldn't take that personal because

396
00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, I get it. But it's different in the NFL,

397
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:52.960
<v Speaker 1>and clearly there are some Chiefs fans that just don't

398
00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:55.480
<v Speaker 1>like it and they want their favorite artists to stop

399
00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 1>bashing their favorite team, and he claims he'll never do it.

400
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:03.000
<v Speaker 1>And he's now said that he will never ever ever

401
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:05.759
<v Speaker 1>perform in the city that is Kansas City. And he's

402
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:09.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of shown some signs of pettiness throughout his career

403
00:19:09.559 --> 00:19:11.440
<v Speaker 1>to where like I believe him, Like I don't think

404
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:12.920
<v Speaker 1>he's just saying it to have fun on the internet,

405
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:15.039
<v Speaker 1>like I think he's being He's being genuine. But he's

406
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:18.720
<v Speaker 1>declared war on Kansas City musically speaking, by claiming that

407
00:19:19.279 --> 00:19:22.200
<v Speaker 1>he'll never play there ever again because of his ongoing

408
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.319
<v Speaker 1>back and forth with Chiefs fans, which again I don't

409
00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:29.799
<v Speaker 1>couple of things here. One, this is just unusual behavior

410
00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:33.480
<v Speaker 1>for a musician that is this popular. But also, I mean,

411
00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:40.200
<v Speaker 1>most people want to bring in fans of all shapes

412
00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:44.240
<v Speaker 1>and sizes, forms, whatever, right, But he's made it clear

413
00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:46.720
<v Speaker 1>in some of his posts on x that he doesn't

414
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:49.279
<v Speaker 1>care if anybody from Kansas City ever listens to his

415
00:19:49.400 --> 00:19:53.039
<v Speaker 1>music again, which is just it's odd. And you know,

416
00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure if you're a Kansas City native and you

417
00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:57.480
<v Speaker 1>want to see him in concert, you're you're bummed. Or

418
00:19:57.519 --> 00:19:59.359
<v Speaker 1>maybe if you're a Kansas City native and you're a fan.

419
00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:03.359
<v Speaker 1>Maybe now you're no longer a fan. But there've been

420
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:06.640
<v Speaker 1>some other musicians over the years that have had issues

421
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:10.319
<v Speaker 1>with certain in certain cities. More often than not, it's

422
00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:13.400
<v Speaker 1>usually somebody just gets banned because they're like Marylynd Manson.

423
00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:17.599
<v Speaker 1>He had planned shows in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Columbia,

424
00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:21.599
<v Speaker 1>South Carolina that eventually just you know, they couldn't. They couldn't,

425
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.720
<v Speaker 1>they couldn't take place because of what takes place at

426
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:26.119
<v Speaker 1>a Marilyn Manson show. But we'll take a look at

427
00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:30.319
<v Speaker 1>that later because there's a list of cities and musical

428
00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:34.279
<v Speaker 1>acts artists that have feuded over very silly things. All right,

429
00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:36.680
<v Speaker 1>we've got another update of trafficking weather coming your way

430
00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:38.599
<v Speaker 1>right here, right now. Bobby Ellis will tell us how

431
00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:40.880
<v Speaker 1>the roadways are looking this morning. Mat Melosavitch will get

432
00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:42.920
<v Speaker 1>us caught up on the forecast, and we'll get another

433
00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:44.720
<v Speaker 1>update on sports with Scott Fitzgerald right here on New's

<v Speaker 1>Radio forty whas
