Speaker 1 (00:00):
I want to ask you, you're not an NBA guy, right,
You're not a basketball guy.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
You don't get into the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (00:06):
I watch him. I'm a college basketball person.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
You're more of a college guy. Okay, how are you
on Lebron James?

Speaker 3 (00:16):
Talent wise, he's one of the best ever.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
He said some things that are a bit ridiculous politically,
but I don't know if he meant like I don't know.
I don't think it's anything to be really upset about.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
He's just I think he's he's a really, really athletically
talented idiot. And and so the the thing is, he
had a big announcement today. That is why I asked,
had a big announcement. A lot of people say, he's
forty years old. Man, he's going into his twenty third
year in the NBA, and he came right out of
high school into the NBA, and maybe he's going to retire,

(00:52):
Maybe it's time to retire. So he holds this big deal,
this big announce this major announcement that he was going
to and and did you see what it was?

Speaker 3 (01:01):
Isn't like a drink or Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Washington Post covered it. This is a story, a news story.
In the Washington Post. Not an editorial. This is a
news story in the Washington Post. Here's the headline, Lebron
James is selling his credibility one decision at a time.
I'm impressed their right. He didn't announce his retirement. He
what he did was he had a video out there

(01:27):
that he had posted to social media that said this
was the decision of all decisions. And so people were,
you know, anticipating a big, big announcement. No, he's actually
he's advertising for Hennessy. What is that jen Hennessy jen
or vodka.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
I don't drink it, so I don't know, but yeah,
a booze commercial. The decision of all decisions.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
Do you remember his first decision thing? That's what he's
making fun of.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
No, I don't what he was in Cleveland, he had
like his contract.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Was when he was leaving to go to the heat.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
Yeah, and he made like a whole hour long interview
or I'm going to take my tet this is and
they called it the decision.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
So I think he's.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
That And I'll be honestly, when he first came out
of high school, I was I was talking about the
kid like crazy. He was a high school kid. I
was talking about him while he was still playing in
high school. He was a phenomenon and he just he
was something else. I wanted him to be somebody that
I liked, and uh, you know, when he went to
the Cavaliers, I was very happy about that. But as

(02:35):
his head got bigger than the rest of the team,
he just I didn't have any use for him.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
Yeah, that's fair off the court. On the court, he's
as good as people say is.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
But off the court he said some things about China
that I was.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Like, he's good.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
He's good, but you know, he gets away with a
lot of crap. They overlook a lot of things that
he really should get called for. And uh, and then
his dramatics if he gets fout or whatever. You need
my pennic spell out, just shut out and stand up.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Man. You're getting paid too much money for that.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
Yeah, he winds a lot, a whole bunch like Michael
Jordan ever wind him like that?

Speaker 2 (03:10):
And who names their son after a paper towel.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I'm just saying I want have named a bounty.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Bounty would be good.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Yeah, better than brawny. So Columbus Man The Comeless Dispatch
covering this by the way.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
A Columbus man will spend the rest of his life
behind bars after being sentenced to more than a century
in prison for running a drug traffic trafficking organization. Franklin
County Common Please. Court Judge Julie Lynch, you go, Julie
go girl, sentenced forty year old Troy Locke on October
sixth to one hundred twelve to one hundred and seventeen

(03:51):
and a half years in prison. That's the way you
do it.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
So he has a chance to get out, Yeah, sure
he does.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
A jury convicted him October for more than a dozen crimes,
including engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, selling fentanyl, cocaine,
and herowood. Some of these charges came with a major
drug offender specification requiring mandatory prison time. According to the
court records, Locke ran the drug ring between now listen
to this November twenty twenty and August twenty twenty one,
so he didn't even have like a full year of

(04:19):
seniority in the gig. Court records show detectives began investigating
Locke's activities in twenty twenty one, obtaining a wiretap to
listen to phone calls he was making. His phone calls
revealed that he worked to increase the potency of his
product so that his product would be fire as they say,
and highly desired by the community of drug users. That
he served solely for the benefit of himself, prosecutors said

(04:43):
in a sentencing memo. Court records indicate Locke was the
sole person running the drug trafficking ring, using addicts, friends,
and family members to market and sell his drugs across
Franklin County. Locke was previously convicted in federal court of
selling cocaine and served time in federal prison. But of
course we let him out. Let's see, that's the problem.

(05:04):
He has two other drug trafficking cases still pending in
Franklin County Common Police Court. And here's my question, why
the hell are we gonna waste the money on that.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yeah, he's already in jail.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
One hundred eleven to one hundred and seventeen years. He's
not getting out.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Yeah, he doesn't sound exactly like Pablo Ascobar.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
No, not really, but he was trying to be a
one man operation, trying to be that guy. Here's the deal, though,
if they're drug offenses, that he still has outstanding. What
is the point now if it was like, you know,
he had killed somebody's family member and we needed to
get closure for that family, and they needed him to
specifically be convicted for killing someone. Okay, I got that

(05:44):
go ahead to have the trial. But when you've been
sentenced to one hundred and eleven years minimum for drug offenses,
is it really necessary to waste the taxpayer dollars to
go through two more cases, which.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
Are to just drop the charges already doesn't make any difference?
And what are you gonna give him extra life? He's
he's done?

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Could we do that?

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Because the judge could just say, after death, you will
be reanimated and brought back to serve another life term.

Speaker 4 (06:11):
I don't know if that's I don't know if that's
possible yet.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
If when it becomes possible, would you be in favor
of that?

Speaker 3 (06:18):
Uh? Yeah, depending on how severe though.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
That could be Hell on earth? What if you could
just keep being brought back to life and then sentenced
to you know, one hundred consecutive life sentences?

Speaker 4 (06:27):
I mean true, It depends on what you did where
they put you in jail too. Do you have consciousness
about what you did in your pass life.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
I would think you should. Yeah, so you can suffer
as much as possible. And no, man, I really missed up.
This is my eighteenth life term.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Really you should have three hundred and seventy life terms.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
You have to pay for this stuff.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
So anyway, I just wanted to let you know a
bad guy went to jail. Speaking of consciousness after death.
Did you ever watch that show? It was called what
was it? Upload or download?

Speaker 3 (06:55):
I have not seen whatever you're talking about it.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
I can't remember what it was. I think it was upload.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
And I might have told you about this before, where
when you die, your consciousness is loaded into a computer
program and they can pick where you live, whether you
want to live in the country or whatever, and your
consciousness continues to live on as you in this computer
world like you're inside the matrix. Oh okay, and if
you're rich, you can live in a nice place and

(07:24):
you know, but if you're broke, you can't afford all
those amenities, so they're still soaking you. You probably have
to pay property taxes on the house you own in
the computer program, but they're still soaking you after death.
To pay for this stuff.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
Imagine if you have it in debt, like you're in
a computer world, but you can't get Wi Fi or something.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Just well yeah, and that's see, that's what the poor
people who are up there like. You only get like
one gig or whatever of activity, and once you've used
your one gig, you're done for the month until your
family puts some more money in there.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Not cool.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
So yeah, you can just be and you're just frozen.
And and you know you're frozen because you're conscious inside
the program.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
It's either called upload or download, is it?

Speaker 2 (08:07):
And it was?

Speaker 1 (08:08):
I watched I think three seasons of it, if I'm
not mistaken, and I waited for the next season to
come out, and it took forever and I never got
back to it.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Well they have, I mean, I'm looking at it.

Speaker 4 (08:19):
It did season four and it just it.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Was it Amazon Prime or was that Amazon Prime?

Speaker 4 (08:27):
Okay, it ended this year, actually last month it ended.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
I may go back and re equainate myself with the
end of season three so I can watch season four
because I did the same thing with Ozark. I never
actually finished out the series finished it either, and that
made me mad because I was really into it.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
It's a good show.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
I am currently streaming old episodes of Person of Interest.
I am obsessed with that show. Cavisl was perfect and
uh and it was way before it's time. If you
have not watched it, it is available on a paramount.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
I think it is. And it was.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
It was fifteen years ahead of its time. It is today.
That show really is today. However, the guy who plays
Harold in that is also in uh Elsbeth, and he
plays a mean, deceitful judge in Elsbeth.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
The short guy.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yeah, the little guy was a good actor. He's awesome.
I don't even know his name.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
Then I forget, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
He was also in Good and Evil?

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Did you see that on NBC for a couple of
seasons that like, We're okay?

Speaker 2 (09:28):
He was. He was basically Satan.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
So there was a woman who had was she like struggling, yes,
struggling with her religious.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, anything else? And he is he is the Satanic
invader in that too. He and I don't know his
name because he's such a wonderful actor. I only know
the characters that he plays.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
Yeah, I know you don't like Lost, but he was
phenomenal in Lass.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
I never even watched Lost. And then of course, Tulsa
King Season three is in progress right now, we've had
what three episodes in at stallone is still magnificent?

Speaker 2 (10:02):
Still good?

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Huh, it is still I'll tell you what. The end
of episode one in season three, you have no choice
but to continue watching when the way it ends you
just it's like if a television show could be sold
by this guy that just got sitting into one hundred
and eleven years, put in a needle and injected into
you so that you became an addict. Tulsa King has

(10:25):
done that to me. Okay, Sunday Nights, it's it is
my new Walking Dead. Sunday Nights used to be Walking
Dead for my son and.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
I and that show went on too long, it did.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah, after they spent way too much time at the farm.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
That was maybe that's.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Where it lost me too, because I remember they made
it to a town or something. Yes, later, but that
was after I stopped watching.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
And it was run by a crazy man.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, and he kept his daughter or
something who was.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
A yes, yes, he his his kids. He kept them
on chains or whatever because they had they turned. And
then there was who was the one guy, the crazy
guy in the leather jacket that carried the ball back.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
That's who I was thinking.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
The Governor's who you're thinking of.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
They kept his butt, but then the one guy just
was bashing in heads with the ball.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
But oh my gosh, it got crazy.
